A/N: As my name implies, I have a few habits, not all of them good, and one happens to be forgetting things. Well, this is a matter of life or death (For my reputation as a writer) so I will break that habit and tell you I don't own Naruto.

CH. 6: Idiocy is the Key

Sakura walked down the halls with a purpose. Her hair had long ago escaped its tight braid, and was now floating around her. Her eyes were piercing silver with the fires of hell shining brightly in the depths. The room seemed to bulge outwards as she walked to her destination. All traces of Ino's blood was gone from her clothes and body, except for one bloody tear under her left eye. Her bag hung from her shoulder, Hime followed behind her cautiously.

Sakura strode into the class room five seconds before the bell rang. Temari, Kankuro, Naruto and Hinata sat that the back of the room. Their eyes bulged when they saw her. Temari stood up, motioning to Sakura to join her. The teacher took one look at her and sniffed.

"Can I help you? You are not wearing a uniform, so I am afraid I will have to ask you to leave my classroom. This is for Konoha Academy students only." the man was casually snotty to her. She turned her burning silver gaze on him and he faltered.

"If you have a problem with the way I dress, LITTLE MAN, then go talk to the Godaime about it. Today is my first day here, and it's been one HELL of a morning. So if you're going to be a prick, then get it out of your system now, because if you piss me off…you'll be joining Yamanaka in the hospital." she then turned her burning silver eyes on the Uchiha, who looked as stoic as ever. She sent him a malicious smile.

"You and I will be talking later Uchiha…of that you can be certain." she growled, then walked to the back of the classroom. The teacher stood there, dumbfounded.

"Don't you have role to call, Nezumi-sensei?" Gaara's stoic and emotionless voice startled the man. He looked up to see Gaara sitting in the windowsill at the back of the classroom next to the young lady who had spoken harshly to him. The man cleared his throat and continued where he left off.

"Haruno Sakura?" he said, looking around the room. He saw the black haired girl with the silver eyes smirk.

"Hai?" she said, her eyes immediately turning to his prized student, Uchicha Sasuke. He went down the list, until he reached the mute girl in his class.

"Hyuuga Hinata?" he looked up to see her duck behind her boyfriend. The blonde answered for her.

"Hai, she's here." Naruto said, putting his arm around the girl and whispering to her. Nezumi couldn't understand why she had suddenly become mute. He called out a few more names until he only have five students left.

"Sabaku Gaara?" he looked up to see the red head nod and then look out the window once more. Nezumi glared at the red head, but continued down the list.

"Sabaku Kankuro?" he was answered by snoring. He looked up just in time to see Temari push her brother's arm from under his head, making him face plant into the top of his desk. A yelp was his only confirmation.

"Sabaku Temari?" Temari smiled and sweat dropped. Nezumi rolled his eyes.

"Uchiha Sasuke?" there was a low growl at the mention of this name, and Nezumi looked up quickly. He saw the new girl, Haruno, glaring at Sasuke. He would address this issue after role call.

"Uzumaki Naruto?" the blonde 'hn'd' at him and went back to talking softly to his girlfriend.

"Miss Haruno…would you KINDLY come before the class and introduce yourself?" the teacher thought to embarrass the youth, but Sakura got up, kicked her chair out of the way, and made her way to the front of the class, Hime hot on her heels. Nezumi scowled at the kitten and was about to kick at it when a growl paralyzed him.

"If you kick her, I'll break that leg off and shove it up your ass, got that?" she asked in a low dangerous tone. He watched as she reached down and picked the kitten up, allowing it to rest in her arms.

"My name is Haruno Sakura. I transferred in from Kagure, because there are no schools in Kagure that want me there. Seems I have a PENCHANT for violence." She stressed 'penchant' and looked at Nezumi evilly.

"The law is the only reason I am here, because I already have a PH.D. and a law degree. After this, I'm going to college for a second time to get my Doctorate in Psychology. I'm a genius, so there really isn't anything here besides the arts and activities that will challenge me. I took my boards at fifteen and have been practicing the last four years in Kagure. My Ji-chan trained me in martial arts and my Obaa-chan trained me in herb usage. I'm also a fortune teller." this last part caught everyone's attention, being as fortune tellers were few and far between…at least the good ones were.

"Fortune telling is for idiots who can be easily conned. There's nothing real about it." Sasuke droned, leaning further back into his chair and adjusting himself crudely.

"Would you like me to show you just how real fortune telling is Uchiha?" she asked, her eyes glowing with a mysterious light. Sasuke leaned forwards and smiled evilly.

"Okay…but if I can prove you wrong, you have to go on a date with me." he said this as lust glazed his eyes. Gaara was about to protest when she glared at him, then back at Sasuke.

"Deal. But if I win…you have to race me in a motorcycle race." Sasuke's eyes widened a little bit at her demand. He was good on a bike, but he didn't know how skilled she was. He smirked and agreed.

"Deal. Now…tell me my fortune, pretty gypsy." he smiled at her and it set her teeth on edge. She was glad she had put on her black gloves before coming in here. She had counted on this happening. Sasuke looked at the gloves and snickered.

Sakura grabbed his hand and held it, palm up, for her inspection. She read his memories and smiled. "Everyone here knows that I have no idea who you are, so I have no prior knowledge of the things I am about to disclose." with that said, she looked at his palm more closely.

"Your older brother is dead. You had a twin brother, but he died not long after you two were born. Your parents died in a plane crash when you were sixteen and you've lived with your grandparents ever since. You should tell your grandfather to visit a doctor, he's going to have a heart attack soon. You enjoy watching others suffer and you revel in other people's pain. You are attracted to me, but you don't know why." Sakura's eyes glazed over then and it seemed as if they were glowing.

"Six hours from now, you are going to engage in a motorcycle race with me and you are going to lose." she let go of his hand as his darkness chased after her. "You lose Uchiha. What I have said is the truth…the shock on your face tells me that much." She walked to the back of the classroom and smiled at Hinata, before going back over to her seat and sitting down, Hime in her arms.

Gaara watched her with amusement as she settled into her seat. "Fortunate for you that Uchiha is an idiot." he whispered to her, making a gleeful smile appear on her face.

"His idiocy will be the key to his downfall, my friend. Just wait and see." she said in a quiet voice, her silver eyes never leaving the Uchiha. Sasuke glowered at her before turning his attention back to Nezumi.

I know my attempts at humor with my disclaimers are pathetic, but I have an odd sense of humor. Bear with me here. Review please!
