My Hopeless Family

Le gasp! What a quick update! Don't expect it to be like this.

The first part of the story is very important. The past chapters have really been nonsense chapters that introduce the characters and their personalities. After this chapter is done I'll actually will start the plot of the story. It's going to be very slow though, don't expect to fully understand whats happening until after chapter 10. Maybe. I really need to plan this story more.

Thanks to my reviewers: I can't get your names here, but I promise I will next chapter. If I haven't replied back to your review I'm sorry. I'll get to it soon :]

Dedication: Shining Through, Happy birthday! Mwahahaha! I barely made it. I finished this chapter at 11:41 p.m. Dear gawd this chapter was hard to write. But I promised you, so here it is :]. I hope you like it! I tried to make it extra special, but I was running out of time... I blame lamebook. So many distractions...

All my life I've wanted to live in a mansion. The thought of having a whole house to myself seemed wonderful. I would be able to have many rooms, each for a specific thing. One room could be dedicated to anime, another to my manga collection. And then two rooms would be dedicated to chocolate. Just thinking about all that chocolate makes my mouth water.

So whenever I hear about rich people who hate staying in their oversized house I feel jealous. I mean, they have everything they want in the world, but they still complain? They were rich snobs.

Or so I thought.

But, then I met my future step-brothers, and I realized everyone has problems.

It can be really small like wanting to be a pastierre or something big like losing a father.

A father.

He wasn't just a father, he was MY father. That's what made the difference. I loved him and he loved me.

Losing him was the hardest thing that happened to me.

But this isn't about me. It's about them. And their problems were complicated. Much more complicated than just losing a person close to them.

"Kiiiba!" I whined in his ear.

"What is it?" He looked strangely irritated.

"Are we there yet?"

He growled under his breath, "No."

"Ok!" I said skipping next to him.

I hummed a song for another couple seconds before I got bored. "Kiiba!"

"What."

"Are we there yet?"

"No."

"Ok!"

We were quiet for another couple seconds. "Kiiba!"

"DO YOU EVER SHUT UP?"

I pouted. "If you want me to be quiet, you could just ask nicely."

He groaned. "I can see why Shikamaru left you."

I glared at his back.

"In the name of the chocolate I shall punish you!"

And then I kicked him.

He cursed so much, he would have made a sailor proud.

Kinda anti-climatic, yes. But so was the fighting scene after Usagi said this in Sailor Moon.

Seriously. Moon Tiara ACTION!

No. A tiara does not hurt people enough to stop them from stealing stuff. Neither does a rose.

I would know. I tried.

Ino wasn't too happy with me throwing 'princess junk' (or so she calls it) at her. And the end result was torn out hair and a LOT of scratches.

Good times.

"You." Kiba growled at me.

"Uh.. Yes?"

"Go!" He pointed to a door, "In there."

The door was painted black with red clouds. Maybe this was Shikamaru's room. He seemed like a person that would like clouds.

But there was something weird about those clouds. It looked like they were bleeding...

Oh well.

"Thanks Kiba!" I gave him a hug, and he stopped moving, "Tell Aka-chan to come back to me when you find him."

"S-Sure."

I swung the door open and walked in. "Oh Shikamaru! I have found my way to your room! I told you I could do it, but you didn't believe me. The chocolate god's aren't pleased with you, you know."

"Who the fuck is she?" I heard a male's voice say.

I looked around the room and saw 9 guys huddling in a circle.

...This does not look like Shikamaru's room.

Oh shit.

"Sakura-chan!" The boy in the orange mask jumped on me, "Tobi didn't know you were coming here today! Do you like this room? It's Itachi's room. Tobi's room is on the other end of the hall. You should come to Tobi's room. It's much more colorful there. It has ALL the colors of the rainbow. Do you like looking for the rainbow? Tobi does. Tobi and Sakura-chan should look for it together sometime!"

Orange mask (I'm guessing his name is Tobi) hugged me tighter and tighter with every sentence he said. Soon I was gasping for air.

"Tobi, get off her," I heard a deep voice say. Tobi pouted and got off.

"Sorry Sakura-chan."

"It's ok." I looked over to the person who just talked and gasped.

Dude. He had peircings everywhere on his face.

I walked closer to him and poked the peircing on the side of his nose. "That is so cute."

I saw him twitch.

"Don't touch me," he growled.

I poked his nose ring once more, "But it's so shiny."

"Fucking bitch, didn't he say to go away?" To the right of Peircy I saw a guy with silver hair and no shirt.

Man, he was built.

"Who are you guys?"

A hand grabbed my shoulder and pulled me back, "You really need to have more self control, un. Is it a common thing for you to do something stupid like that dinner?"

I turned around. There he was. Ino-look-alike.

I narrowed my eyes and glared at him, "Excuse me? That dinner thing was my fault? You're the one who threw that damn pea at the other blonde. It's all your fault and I'm getting the blame for it? Three people last chapter blamed me for that dinner. I didn't do it! Jerk." I stomped my foot for emphasis.

"Hey! You were the one who interfered with it, un. If you left it alone the whole food fight wouldn't start. And I'm the victim here, yeah. My hair was covered with food, un!"

I raised an eyebrow at him, "Your hair? Seriously, do you have any male pride? You're acting more like a girl than I do."

"I'm not a girl!"

"Really?"

"Yes, really, un"

"Really really?"

"Yes, really really, un."

"Shut up you two."

"Hey!" I said turning around, "No one interrupts the great Sakura Haruno when she is in the middle of a battle."

The red-head that interrupted glared at me. Why is everyone in this room so mean?

You just can't find nice people these days.

"Who are you?"

He glared at me some more.

"Sakura-chan! Let me introduce you to them. This is Sasori," He pointed to the red-head, "That's leader," Peircings was next, "Hidan, Kakuzu, Kisame, Zetsu, and you already know senpai and Itachi. Konan-chan isn't here, but you'll meet her soon."

I tried to process their names, but I gave up. There was no way I could remember all that. I'll just resort to the older way; nicknames.

"Ok," I nodded, "So, I have a question."

"What the fuck do you need? We're talking about important shit here." I glared at silver head.

"Where's Shikamaru?"

This time Itachi stood up, "It's around noon. He should be in the dining hall."

Leader glanced at his watch, "We should go eat something. Let's go."

Grunts of approval was heard around the room. Leader stopped and looked at me, before walking away.

"Was that supposed to mean something?" I mumbled under my breath.

"That means you can come with us." I looked at Plant Man, "Just don't bother us."

I gulped and nodded. These were some weird people.

"Sakura-chan. Do you like our gang?" Tobi jumped up to me and started walking.

I stared at him, "Gang?"

He beamed at me (Or I think he did. I can't see through that mask of his), "Yeah! We're really popular around here!"

"O..k.." I nodded slowly.

Gang?

As in listen-to-what-I-say-or-I'll-kill-you gang?

Oh man. I'm screwed.

Next chapter will be really long. And I'll be done with the whole Sakura's-stuck-in-a-mansion thing. Sorry it's taking three chapters. I was supposed to finish it in the first, but that would have made an epically long chapter...

I didn't check for mistakes. If you find any, please tell me.

Review?
