A/N : Hehe... Sorry for the late update but I've been busy working and stuff and I did say that you shouldn't expect speedy updates on this story... Well anyway there are some time-skips in this chapter so that I could get on with it... Hope you enjoy... ;P
Sakura hated the bloody cast, it was itchy and she had already lost three chopsticks in it, thank god that she would be able to take it of in only two weeks. Currently she was in school trying to block out the yelling from the fangirls that had flocked around the band members that were in their lunch break that Sakura found herself also in.
"Why did I have to have a different lunchtime than the girls?" Sakura murmured irritated as the stood in the food line. "You know that the first sign of madness is to talk to one self." Came a whisper from behind her. Sakura whipped around and came face to face with Itachi's younger brother Sasuke.
"I think I just lost my appetite." Sakura said and walked away from the boy who seemed to be following her around lately after she had won in the race against Suigetsu.
This day was not going so well for Sakura and she was seriously thinking about skipping, it wasn't like anybody would scold her for doing it except for the principle maybe. Instead of skipping Sakura escaped to the roof to have some peace and quiet.
"What are you doing up here?" Came a voice suddenly just after Sakura sat down to relax. She jumped up and came face to face with Gaara who had just walked through the door to the roof. "I came here to get a break from yourfangirls and from an annoying jackass that seems to be following me around." Sakura said sitting back down. "You can stay here for all I care." She then added as an afterthought.
Gaara said nothing but sat down besides her and took out a bento box. When Sakura smelled the food her stomach growled making her blush slightly. "Here have some." Gaara said handing the chopsticks to the pinkette along with the box.
"Thanks." Sakura said taking it and started eating out of the box with the red head. "Why are you so different?" Gaara suddenly asked once they had finished out of the box. "Wha?" Sakura was confused at the question, was she different.
"You're not like the other annoying girls that chase after us all day." Gaara explained shrugging. "Oh, well that's easy. I simply don't think you're that good." Gaara starred at her, not with anger over insulting their band, not with hurt either but with curiosity.
"What do you mean by that?" He asked making Sakura shrug. "I'm not saying that you suck or something like that, you are good but not that good. I would maybe go fangirl crazy on you if you were as good as Metallica." She explained to him half jokingly as the bell rang.
"My sister was right you are something." Gaara said as he walked down the stairs side by side with Sakura. "That's what they all say." Sakura laughed stepping in the hallway only to be crushed by a group of girls. When she was free from the crazy fangirls she turned to see poor Gaara trying to get himself out of there so he could get to class on time and she felt pity for him.
Taking an action she normally wouldn't do for anybody Sakura yelled over the group with as much of a girly voice she could muster. "OH MY GOD, OVER THERE, KIBA WITH OUT A SHIRT!" To say that her plan worked was an understatement, all the girls ran in the direction Sakura pointed leaving Gaara alone.
She then waived to him and headed in the same direction as the girls ran to, hoping she'd get to class on time.
"Sakura you´re late." Itachi said the moment she arrived at the arena. "Sorry, I had to get past some crazy fangirls on my way here." Tobi jumped up and down form hyperness. "Sakura has fangirls! Sakura has fangirls!" He chanted happily until said girl hit him on the back of the head with her cast.
"They were not myfangirls you idiot. They were that Houkou bands fangirls." That seemed to catch the guys attention.
"Houkou go to the same school as you?" Kisame asked racing a brow. "I head that they´re quite good." Deidara then said shrugging. Sakura just shook her head, leave it to her friends to know who they were while she just found out a month ago.
"They´re alright." She just said and turned to the unwillingly voted team captain. "So Itachi what are we going to practice today?" The raven haired boy glanced at her still casted hand and sighed. "Well you can´t do anything of what I have in mind right now so you can just practice your usual stuff."
Sakura growled at that, she really did hate the stupid thing. She couldn´t wait until she could take it of in two weeks, just in time for the job Itachi had gotten them.
"Finally I can take it of! Muhahahahahahaha! Die you stupid cast DIE!" Currently Sakura was standing in her kitchen with a pair of scissors getting ready to cut her cast of off her hand.
She made quick work of it and two minutes later she was looking at the two half of the cast lying on her dinner table along with six chopsticks, a small fan, three pens and thirty dollars. Ignoring the extra stuff Sakura took the cast and started to glue it together again, when she finished she placed it on the center of the table as a decoration.
Just as she was bout to put all the stuff she had lost inside the cast away her phone rung making her run to get it. "The nuthouse how can I help you?" Sakura answered, she had a different greeting for each ringtone that came and Master of Puppets meant that one of her boys where calling.
"Sakura we have a slight problem here and need you to come over." Kisame said in a muffled voice. "What is it?" The pinkette asked worried for her friends' safety, who knew what kind of trouble they got them self in to this time.
"We met some bikers that demand a race but sins Itachi isn't here we can't do it so we need you to come and help." Kisame explained making Sakura sigh. "Ok where are you guys?" Once she had the location Sakura jumped out the door and raced to where her friends were waiting for her help.
"Took you long enough squirt." Kisame said when Sakura showed up next to some ramps where they and four other people on bikes stood on top of. "Well it's not my fault I live on the other end of town." Sakura yelled at him waiving her hands around irritated, after almost hitting a cat and begin hit by a bike she felt she had the right to.
"What crawled up our ass and died?" One of the bikes asked, the only girl there besides Sakura. "Your mom, wanna join her?" Sakura snapped turning to the four standing there. The red haired female looked ready to tear the pinkette to pieces, only her teammates came in between the two.
"Tayuya calm down you can take it out on her in the race." One of the boys said, he was tan with his brown hair pulled up in to a high ponytail and looked to be the leader of the group.
Sakura turned back to her friends silently asking them what the hell was going on, it was Deidara that answered. "Well they kind of want to stop us from entering the tournament by racing us."
Without a warning Sakura hit the three on the head scowling at them. "Are you three stupid or something, why did you drag me all across town if you could simply say no to that idiotic proposal?" This time Tobi spoke up. "If we beat them then there will be one less team in the tournament for us to worry about."
Again Sakura hit them on the head. "You fools, they probably have something planed to make us loose here. If Itachi finds out that you even thought about doing something like this he would castrate all of you."
The three males shivered at the thought as Sakura turned around to face the bikers once more. "We refuse to race you under these claims, my teammates may be stupid but I'm not." Glaring at the older boys she hissed. "Lets go, you all owe me lunch and dinner for dragging me here."
"They have already accepted so you either race or forfeit." A silver haired boy said crossing his arms making Sakura turn around.
"They can't accept anything like this without the leaders or the second in charges' approval and sins neither Itachi nor I was here when they accepted it's not valid." Sakura said crossing her arms also silently challenging the boy who had spoken up.
"What, are you scarred that you'll loose?" One of the two identical grey haired boys said mocking them.
"No." Sakura said calmly after giving Kisame a shot in the stomach with her elbow to stop him yelling. "Like I said before I'm not stupid enough to take a challenge like this that is most likely a setup." Not giving them a chance to argue she pushed her team away from the bikers to the direction to her house.
