Chapter 1: the beginning of the end……..of my life!
"Hey, Suzume, you're going to be late. Sis, you're going to be late. It's 6:30." My 18-year-old brother, Neji, said as shook me awake.
"I was in the middle of a very good dream. Go away." I moaned. I originally woke up at four, taken a shower and done last today's due homework assignments but I passed out after I was finished.
"Fine." He said. I thought he left but he didn't. I know this because he flipped the mattress over. "Time to get up!"
"Okay! You didn't to have to flip the mattress over!" I shot an evil glare my brother and gathered my ninja stuff. I ran out of the door and raced to the high school. My high school is Hoshi High School which, if hadn't guessed, is a ninja and feudal history as the academic part and the electives are langue, science, and other annoying classes.
I rushed into my History class and just made it as the bell rang. "Sorry I was late, Kurenai-sensei." I placed myself into the front row center seat.
Sensei rolled her eyes at me and began to teach. A note was passed to me. It was from Sasuke. It read: Want to eat lunch later?
I rolled my eyes and wrote no, passed it back, and took notes.
I could hear Sasuke groan behind me. The bell rang 20 minutes later. Sensei told us our homework was that to do the page 899, all 20 vocabulary words. Of course for being late, Sensei gave me 20 extra words. I nodded and tried to run out of the room to avoid Sasuke……But the pansy got to the door first and blocked my way.
"Suzume, we're popular and friends so why don't you want to ever hang out with me?" He asked.
"Because." I stated, gliding to the left……and flower boy blocked me.
"Why?"
"Don't want to."
"Why?"
"Maybe because I don't like pansy boys stalking me?! Just leave me alone and take a hint!" I snarled as I stomped past him. He was in most of classes and, either, sat behind me or next to me in all of the ones we share. Sasuke was the most popular boy in the entire school and same for me but that doesn't give him the right to stalk me!
I rushed to spar class. You see I'm one of the smartest and strongest in all of Konoha because Ancient history and all of my other classes are for seniors…….only. Asuma-sensei said we had to fight the entire class. The exam this year would like last year but much, much, much harder. I was fitted against my best guy-friend, Shikamaru.
"Can I forfeit now? I hate fighting you!" I screeched. I am 16 and Shikamaru was 17 and was way too smart to be in high school. It always made me wonder why he was in he was still here………
"I don't want to fight either. Man, this is such a drag." He moaned. And then I'd realize he was the laziest person on the planet.
We got through our fight; he let me win, of course. I got all to the top and the bell rang. "I'll see you guys tomorrow." I yelled over my shoulder.
"I thought you were –OW!" One of my girlfriends said before Shikamaru smacked her. And before I could say anything, Shikamaru dragged me off.
"What was that about?" I asked as he continued to drag me to strategy class.
"Ten-Ten doesn't know what she's talking about." He said.
"You look guilty, Shikamaru. What is going on?" I asked. I could always tell when anyone was lying.
"I'm sure Neji will tell you later." Shikamaru said and said nothing else.
The rest of the day went smoothly but I was so fixed on what the hell Ten-Ten was talking about. Neji picked me up from school like everyday but today he stopped in front of the main house of our clan.
"What are we doing here? Neji, we hate this place. Ever since dad died for Hirashi-san, we've been trying to get away from them. That's why we live together and a half hour away. You're raising me by yourself and, may I add, you are doing a fantastic job." I asked/ said/ snapped.
"Thank you but I have something to tell you. I know you are going to hate me for it but you and me are moving." My brother said as he got out of the car. He opened my door. My expression was set to 'what the hell did you just say?!'.
"Don't kill me but my job moved has moved to a small town between Rain and Sound. I'm so sorry, Suzume, but if you want to stay with me, we are going to have to move." He said.
"Oh my god….My life is over." I thought as I entered the threshold of my dreaded uncle's house. I have to move away from my best friend, my popularity, everything.

"So you two are moving? To where?" My uncle began asking 20 questions to my brother. I walked away from them and went to Hinata's room. Hinata and I have been somewhat close.
"Why are you 2 moving to?" She asked me.
"Some town between Rain and Sound. Gangster central." I moaned. "I don't want to move. I don't want to go." I dropped my head against my cousin's bed.
She placed her hand on my head and said. "There is always the fact that you can drive back here when ever you want. Neji will probably be happy to loan you the car and you have a cell phone."
"Thanks, Hinata. Mind if I kidnap you a few times?" I asked.
"You kidding me? I'd be glad if you can kidnap me!" Hinata squealed as she hugged me.
There was a knock on the door and Hinata allowed the knocker in. Neji came and took me away. We didn't talk until we arrived at the apartment. "Are mad at me, Su?" He asked.
"Now, no. When do we have to leave?" I asked.
"Friday, we have to leave the apartment." He said and opened the door. Our apartment was only met for 2 people. My small room was right next to Neji's spacious room. Our rooms were connected by the bathroom. The kitchen and the dinning room/living room were divided by a counter/ stove. The entire apartment was a baize color.
"At least the new place won't be so small or lame. Right, nii-san?" I asked.
"The new house is way bigger and it's an orange color, except your room and bathroom are bright red. Still upset about leaving."
"I want to be mad. I want to really, really, REALLY mad." I said as walked to my room. I closed my door and leaned against the door. "My life is over." I moaned.
