-Chapter 2-
Emerald eyes blinked open to the stream of sunlight penetrating the glass of the large window of her living room.
Yawning, she lazily threw her slim legs over the side of the couch, stretching and rising from the rather comfortable sofa.
Silently, Sakura opened the door to her bedroom to find her sister looking at herself in the full-length mirror. The medics happy expression turning quickly to one of pure annoyance.
"Um...you do realize those are my clothes you're wearing right?" Karin turned a disapproving look to her and went to rummage through her pack, pulling out some clothes and tossing them carelessly to her younger sibling.
"You really need to keep up on your laundry, this is the last outfit you had! Not to mention you need a total closet makeover." Sakura threw her sister a scowl and stalked off to the bathroom to shower.
Who the hell did her sister think she was! Did she not find it rude to just traipse through peoples' closests and steal their clothes?
Oh well. It could be worse. She could have let me suffer with nothing to wear at all.
But after the shower, that she thought could maim her slowly rising temper, and putting on the clothing her sister had so kindly given her, the pinkette was honestly debating whether wearing this or going completely naked would be the better choice.
The outfit was just so...skimpy, for lack of a better word. The black top outlined in thick, green stitching was V-cut and low-cut, showing some cleavage. The sleeves were off-the-shoulder and long, tightly covering her arm to her wrists, and the bottom, of what Sakura thought was a shirt, ending right at the top of her torso, giving everyone a good look at her toned, scarred stomach. She found herself tugging at the skirt, which was identical to color and design with the top, but soon found it to no avail as it just sprang back to where it originally sat, hugging her hips tightly and ending mid-thigh.
Examining herself, she began to debate her career. Was she a top-rank Kunoinchi/ Medic-nin or a prostitute?
Letting her waist-length hair dry to its naturally straight style, she stomped into the kitchen to find her sister making each of them a cup of tea.
Coming to stand beside the red-head, the medic couldn't help but let the aggravation show on her delicate features as her sister gave a low whistle.
"Lookin' good Saku-chan! Now that's the kinda woredrobe you should be investing in. The clothes you have are just so...ugly." The pinkette glared kunais at Karin. So what if her choice of apparel was ugly? They were efficient for a kunoinchi. Easy to move around in and to hide weapons. Not that the outfit she had on couldn't meet those requirements, but she preferred not to flash the entire world her undergarments while attempting to take down an enemy. And quite frankly she was feeling a little too...revealed in them.
Setting the mug in the sink the Hokage's apprentice proceeded to the entrance hall of the small apartment, pulling on her nin-boots and fastening her weapons pouch and med-pack to their appropriate places.
"So, what are the plans? It's beautiful here! Shopping perhaps? That sounds like a good idea. I can't wait to see how much the Konoha shops have changed and -"
"No. I have to go meet with my team for training. I'm already late, so the shopping will have to wait till later. Feel free to make yourself at home till I return. I should be back around five or so."
"Oh! You have a team! Shopping can, indeed, wait till later! I want to meet your teammates! Oh how exciting!" And before Sakura even had the chance to protest, the red-eyed kunoinchi was out the door, and descending the staircase that lead outside.
This should be fun. The pinkette thought bitterly as she locked the door and began to make her way to the training grounds.
-With Team 7-
"Where the hell is Sakura-chan! She should have been here fifteen minutes ago and -"
"Hn. Shut up dobe." The impatient and hyperactive blonde was about to show his overly calm teammate how not to talk to the future Hokage, when he sensed the familiar presense of his female partner.
"SAKURA-CHANNN!" Ignoring the glare that was being sent in his direction the kyuubi-container took off in the direction of the pinkette's chakra, readying the fire of questions he was going to barage her with as to why she was late, and came to a stumbling halt when he realized that his dear Sakura-chan's chakra was accompanied by a chakra that was unfamiliar to him.
Sasuke, also sensing the unfamiliar chakra, came to stand next to loud-mouth blonde, curious to see to whom this strange chakra belonged to.
"Hey everyone. Sorry I'm late. I got a suprise visit from -"
"Hello. My names Karin. Karin Haruno. You must be Naruto." The jinchuuriki gave the red-head a questioning look, then broke out his infamous, fox-like grin and extended his hand to Karin.
"You got it! Naruto Uzumaki! Konohagure's next Hokage!" The red-eyed kunoinchi gladly took the boys hand and gave it a firm shake.
"Hahaha pleased to meet you," her calculating eyes then scanned over the other male, a smirk playing at the corners of her mouth.
"And you must be Sasuke?" She watched as the boy stared back at her with just as calculating a gaze as her own, almost looking as if contemplating whether she was worth knowing who he was.
"Hn. Uchiha Sasuke." Her smirk only grew wider as the red-head suddenly found her interest peak. This boy was the last Uchiha huh?
"Well. It was very nice to meet you both!" Karin turned to look at her sister, who seemed short of pleased with the gaze she had given her second teammate."Both very cute! How could you possibly get such great looking boys to talk to you?"
Sakura's semi-sulk had turned into a full-out glare at the insult her sister had directed at her. Was she inclining that was was ugly or-
"I love talking to Sakura-chan, thank you very much. Except when she's going through "that time of the month". She can be a real b-OWWW! SAKURA-CHANNN!"
The apprentice's fist came to rest at her side once more, her glare intensifying ten-fold by the words flying out of the blonde idiots, ratherly large mouth. Karin only laughed at comment, finding Naruto blushing at the fact that he had made her laugh.
As the raven-head tuned out the small-talk Naruto was now engaging the red-head in, he couldn't help but take a glance at his female teammate, who, by her expression, seemed less than happy to be related to the girl. And what the hell was she wearing? Surely he knew that Sakura would not willingly wear something knowing how scantily clad she looked? Not that he thought she looked bad in it. He found her rather attractive, the outfit of choice bringing out her curves and -
The Uchiha stopped himself before his mind tread into dangerous waters. This was Sakura he was thinking about like this. She was his teammate, his friend, and nothing more...right?
The medic had glanced at the seemingly brooding teen standing infront of her, noticing the way he was staring and a light pink dusted her cheeks. This action did not go by unnoticed by the red-head.
"Oi, bastard! What are you staring at?" Following where the Uchiha's focus had formerly been, the kyuubi-container had finally realized that his female comrade had been unusually quiet. Then his eyes wandered to her appearance and his mouth practically dropped to the ground.
"S-Sakura-chan. You look...hot!" Sakura raised her fist, deathly green-chakra glowing against her tan skin. But just as she was about to make a move at the jincuuriki, her sister stepped in, not only stopping the pinkette in her tracks, but also further enraging the female.
"I know right! It was one of my old outfits from the genin days. Now I have proudly passed it down to my dear younger sister. This girls choice of apparel is just gosh-darn awful. Once I saw it, I knew something had to be done. But anywhos I really would like to be apart of your training, seeing as I have nothing else to do. Oh, I know! Let's have a free-for-all! First one down treats the others to dinner. I'm thinking ram -"
"RAMEN! Hell yea! I'm starting to like your sister more by the minute Sakura-chan! She rocks!" The apprentice just stared, bewilderment and confusion dancing across her features. Since when had her sister started eating ramen? For as long as she could remember, her sister had detested the food, saying how the sodium count in the soup was no good for someone who wanted to become an A-class kunoinchi.
"Not to mention I want to test out my new jutsu on that Sharingan of yours. I need to see how it will fair against the genjutsu and whether it needs to be improved." This caught the raven-head's attention. So this girl was working on jutsu's that could somehow counter his kekkei genkai. Indeed an interesting attribute to their spar.
As the three shinobi walked deeper into the training gorunds, Naruto blabbing about his most recent mission in the Land of Waves, clearly trying to impress Karin, the medic couldn't help but feel a twinge of pain in her chest at so easily being forgotten. At first, she was over-joyed to see her sister safe and sound, but now, she sort if wished the red-head would not have interfered in the kunoinchi's life. Making her wear ridiculous clothing was one thing, but stealing her teammates away from her? That was a whole new level.
