Blizzard Wolf Petals
Chapter 4. Much needed team
Sakura didn't want to, or ever..
Sit in this room. There's too much screaming, arguing over that dark haired boy over there, and too much potato chip munching for her to bear.
"Mm, sorry about that." crunched a orange haired boy.
"It's okay.." mumbled the quiet pinkette. She tugged on her head band.
'I kinda miss my ribbon..'
While Sakura tried to look back on the past, a brown haired man walked in.
"Welcome students. You guys are no longer my students, now you all are shinobis.."
"Aw, I know where this is going." grumbled a pine apple haired boy, "Wake me up when it's over." he said, placing his head on the desk for a nap.
Sakura held her head high as Iruka explained that they were no longer snot nosed brats. Except a few. Still, she felt happy to not be in that academy every again. Akane was so proud of her when she bounced home with a brand new shiny head band. After they hugged, they went out to celebrate.
The taste of those BBQ rib tips still lingered in her mouth. Also, the feel of her gift certificate to a kunai shop. Sakura stopped resisting as she raised an eye brow when Iruka tapped his foot against the floor. Curious, she looks over near the door and rolls her eyes.
"Ino, your quite late then usual." he said, watching the exhausted female lean on the opening of the door. "Didn't you set your alarm clock to a reasonable time?"
"No way!" shouted the female. Ino pointed a finger at the girl next to her. "Momo pushed me into a river!"
Momo, an annoying girl with purple hair tied up in two different pig tails pouted. She wore a slutty black outfit that cut to her thighs and showed off the barely visible cleavage hidden beneath her neck. The female's doe eyes enlarged as she kept pouting, trying to combat Iruka's demeaning stares.
Ino on the other hand, was soaking wet.
Sakura figured what she said was true, except the purple haired bimbo's upcoming lie.
"I didn't do anything, honest.."
Iruka rolled his eyes with a huff, "Fine.. Just sit down."
Momo smirked as Ino growled at her. The purple haired girl walked away swaying her hips from side to side, attracting attention from the other males in the room. They moaned in disappointment when Momo cruised down the aisle and sat near a dark haired boy with a moody scowl placed on his features. All the fan girls gasped and started throwing threats at the brown eyed girl. She only stuck her tongue out at them t and kept looking forward, waiting for further instructions.
"Ino, you can sit down as well." he suggested.
The platinum haired girl huffed in hopelessness and wandered to the corner of the room were a few sits weren't taken. As she sat by her self, Sakura watched from afar. Why did she take that crap from her? It didn't make any sense. If it was her getting picked on like last time she'll beat her the f..
"Haruno Sakura.."
Sakura jolted up right after hearing her name be announced located in the front. She anxiously looked around the room, many students were already leaving as we speak. A soft sign escapes from her lips. Iruka already called out the teams, obviously she didn't capture a thing. For a demon, her hearing is a little off.
With that, she got up from her seat and exited out the room into the halls. A few kids were walking down the aisles as Sakura moved straight ahead. She anxiously checked each room for any source of her team mates and squeaked when an eraser hit the edge of her forehead.
"Itai.."
"Ooh! I'm so sorry about that.." apologized a male voice.
Sakura rubbed her forehead with her thumb, "It's alright. I'm sure it'll go away at some point." she tells him.
The boy cracks a smile. "Great! Do you mind telling us why your hear?"
"Um.. I'm your team mate?" she cheekily inquires.
He quickly turns around yelling out, "See! I told you that there wasn't a mix up. She's right here."
She watches the dark haired boy by the window shrug his shoulder, then resume staring out the window.
"Tch, idiot.." comments the blond boy. He switched his attention to her instead, "I'm Uzumaki Naruto. You are Haruno Sakura, right?"
"Mm-hmm. Who's he?"
"Bleh.. Sasuke the prick. Don't mind him, he doesn't say anything."
Sakura quickly blinks in astonishment. 'Hold up, he looks just like.. Itachi.'
The demon keeps her vision on him.
Both of them have dark hair, and hard stone eyes.
Yet, Itachi's were a lot softer then his. Sakura made a mental note in the back of her head that he's deranged.
Naruto waved his hand in front of her face, "Hellloooo? You there?"
On cue, Sasuke turns his head to say something. "Hn. Seems like we got a fan girl on our hands."
"Hey! Don't call someone a fan girl just because she's looking at you." Naruto shouts, trying to defend her right to look. "I mean, what's the point of eye balls in our sockets?"
Sakura tried to hold back a laugh, only to turn around and spot a live scarecrow in the door way.
"Aah, seems like the gang is all here."
"You must be our sensei." Sasuke says, jumping off the radiator.
He walks towards the man, with his hands stuffed in his pockets. Kakashi grins eagerly when all of his students approach him head on.
"Maybe.. do you mind meeting me up on the roof?"
Without an ok, Sakura evaporated in a viel of ice out the window. Naruto jumps away in shock while Sasuke and Kakashi raise an eye brow.
"Woah, what was that?" Naruto asks in shock.
Not even a fan girl at all..
. . .
Sakura ate her lunch on roof while waiting for her team mates.
She didn't really care if lunch already passed. But due to spacing out, time just flew by.
The wolf-demon tried her best to keep the rice down in her stomach as she watches a purple haired girl beat upon a smaller one. 'Momo is such a cruel person..' Sakura thought with her eyes narrowed. Just suddenly, she sees a flash of yellow shove the purple menace out the way.
"Ino.." she calls out, barely keeping her eyes off the fight.
Apparently, there was a few pushes and shoves before Momo walked off with her ugly team. Good, served her right. While she watched the baby blue eyed girl chase the purple monster away, two flares of chakra spiked up near the steps. Figures it was Sasuke and Naruto trying to beat each other up the steps.
"Ugh.. I'm tired.." he rasped out, only to slide on a trail of ice all the way near Sakura. "Eh? Did you do that Sakura-chan?"
"You said you were tired. Just trying to do you a favor."
Naruto kept looking at her for a few more seconds before smiling and rapping his arm over her shoulder. "Great! We can work together from now on!"
Sakura felt a ting of pink take over her cheeks. 'Oh my.. his scent smells like, fox!' she thought, completely flustered by the situation.
Sasuke only sulked and sat down far away from them. Then poof! Kakashi rolled up saluting them all.
"Hello there! Welcome to the top of the roof!"
"..." went the silent trio.
Kakashi sweat dropped at that. "Okay.. now were going to introduce our selves."
Naruto raised his hand eagerly, "We should let Sakura go first!"
The girl pointed a finger at her chest, "Me? Really? I.. I don't want to." Sakura said, not sure if her story is good enough.
"Oh come on. Your story should be neat and come from the heart." Naruto told her, winking at the rosette.
"Oh, alright.." Sakura carried on with a smirk. "Where should I begin?"
"Tell us your name, hobbies, dream, and dislikes."
"Okay. My name is Haruno Sakura and I like to train with my okaa-chan every day. My hobbies rang from gardening to eating pork, and my dislikes are lazy whiny people who can't help them selves."
"Sounds like a guy I know.." Naruto whispered, jabbing his finger near Sasuke.
"Naruto!" Kakashi boomed, frighting the little guy. "Do you mind telling us about your self?"
"Hold on a sec.. Sakura-chan didn't explain her dream."
"Your right. Don't you have a dream?"
Sakura was tongue tied, "Um.. I don't really have one."
"Why not? Everyone has a dream. Mine is to become hokage!"
"It's not your turn yet, you." scowled the scarecrow. He turned towards Sakura, "Now, now. I"m sure that you'll find your dream in due time."
Sakura zoned out, completely bothered by her lack of dream.
In moments time, Sasuke and Naruto both explained their goals and then Kakashi devised up a strange plan.
"There's going to be test. It isn't any normal one though, just don't eat any lunch."
"How come?" Naruto questioned.
"Hello.. You'll completely gag. Don't worry Kaka-sensei, we won't let you down!"
. . .
At Sakura-chan's house..
"Mother! Mother! Are you home?"
Akane rushed out of the living room, "Yes! What's the matter?"
"I just got assigned a team with ramen boy and duck butt. Any pointers?"
She entered a thinking position. "Well, the Uchihas are quite stuck up. Trust me, I dealt with them all the time."
"Uzumaki?"
"No clue.." shrugged the red head. "Sorry about that."
"It's okay. I can mange. Do you have any clue to combat a Hatake?"
"Ah, Kakashi! There is one trick.."
Akane leaned in to her her daughters ear, and slowly explained the scarecrows deep dark secret. Sakura smirked as the juicy details plauged her brain. Obviously she has a plan that would thwart his rein if terror on said students. While she debated on her next movements, a rusty kunai feel to the floor.
Sakura spun around, releasing ice from her palms. It shot out from her hands then froze it, only destroying in tiny bits after it has fallen. She looked up, crestfallen as her mother's kunai disintegrated into thin air. Akane simply raised an eye brow at her before leaving.
"If you want help with your family then go ahead. I bet your in need for more techniques."
The rosette simply nods, then exits out the door. Sakura scans her surroundings, dark haze claimed her vision. She proceeds to walk towards the park, and stops at the furthest part of the back woods. Her form changes to resemble a snow wolf with emerald eyes. The wolf advances towards the middle and lets out a howl.
As it claims the skies, another joins in. This time more elegant.. Fwooosh!
Flames circle around the grass turning into a tornado of fire. It decreases, taking the form of a wolf with golden eyes.
'Pleasure seeing you agian..'
Sakura turned back into a human, then hugged her uncle. "I'm so happy to see you too."
'Mind telling me what's going on these days?'
"Earlier today I met my genin team, and now theres a test."
'Sounds fair..'
"Except I can't eat anything!"
'That's fucked up. You don't have to listen if you don't want to.'
"No, it's alright. I'll just eat a salad.. or something. Do you mind training with me for a while?"
'Certainly..' he replies gruffly.
The wolf bends over on his paws, ready to pounce.
Sakura summons an ice kunai and smirks..
They're training begins!
The bell test is coming!~
Sakura is going to show off more of her powers. Then maybe, Sasuke wouldn't lable her as a weak kunoichi.
Should she kick his ass or rip him in the head?
Thanks for reading!
