Hey! Most of todays chapter will be in flashback form, it will also be in point of views of all the girls and a few other people, explaining their true past up until they got expelled, it won't make any sense if I don't start from the very beginning, p.s there will also be a few pov's the girls didn't know about that I'm going to put in here
Enjoy!, there I go again -_-
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, SHINee, 2ne1, or any other songs in here
Part 1 at the beginning
Regular POV
"Megami! Naruto! Are you ready? Hurry or we'll be late!" kushina called, both 2 year olds skipped downstairs with a maid holding both their hands "their ready my lady" she said letting go of their hands and bowing
"thank you shisho, come on kids" she said holding her hands out as both of them sloppily took them, both had just started learning how to walk a few months ago and were still uneasy at it
As they strolled to the limo were their father was waiting megami looked up and asked "mama, were we goin' again?" she sighed "I told you sweetie, were going to sasuke uchiha's 2nd birthday party?" "but who's that?"
Naruto gasped "you don' know sasuke?" "naruto, megami's never met him before"
It was true, while naruto was off having play dates with sasuke, megami was forced to hang out with the girls from other clans and lands, to goodie goodie for her taste though
"well this is a good chance to get to know him and his brother since we'll be seeing them more often" megami grimaced, at only 2 years old she hated meeting new people
She was sure she wasn't going to like him
The small family entered the mansion after the door being opened by the butler, the first sight were little kids running around and playing with little birthday hats on them
On one side of the room were the sabaku children, with whom they had already met, in the older sisters arms was their little brother gaara, who didn't seem too pleased to be here
A few feet away from them were the hyuga's and their cousins, hinata and neji were playing, they'd only met them once though and only said hi
Finally they walked up to a man and woman and two boys, one half the size of the man and the other smaller and holding the womans hand, also with a grim confused expression on his face
"naruto!" "sasuke!" both boys high-fived each other, the woman giggled "hello again naruto" "hi sasuke's mom, sasuke's dad, itachi!"
Sasuke's parents smiled, itachi half smiled, finally their eyes fell on the little girl hiding behind minato, mikoto bent down "and you must be megami, I don't believe we've officially met, hi i'm mikoto but you can call me auntie mikoto if you like"
Megami tightened her grip on her father's pants, "megami, go ahead and say hi" minato said
Megami stood out and stood in front of mikoto who when bending down was her height, she toughened up "I'm megami!" mikoto looked taken aback for a second then smiled
She moved out of the way "well megami, this is sasuke" she said, megami faced the little boy who she was an inch taller than, they stared at each other for what seemed like forever, mikoto happily sighed "aaaw love at first sight" she whispered to kushina
Sasuke's POV
Red hair? What a stupid color, and a weird girl…
Megami's POV
Look at this pretty boy! I thought he was a girl at first! And funny shaped hair too…
Regular POV
Megami turned around and walked back to minato, she took his hand then turned back around, they all looked confused
"megami…aren't you going to say happy birthday?" minato asked, she pushed her hat which covered her long red hair onto her head
"happy birfday" sasuke turned his head to the side "I didn't ask you for one" "sasuke!" megami's cheeks turned red, "sasuke that was very rude, apologize to megami" fugaku demanded
Sasuke glared at her, her cheeks returned to normal "sorry…" he mumbled, she smirked "yur alright uchiha-boy, he turned his eyes to her and smiled
Kushina noticed what was going through their little minds and smiled "maybe they do have some potential…" she said to herself
2 years later
"sasu-chan?" megami asked staring up to the traveling clouds laying with sasuke in the field behind her mansion, "didn't I say to stop calling me that?" she shook her head "and I said no"
He sighed "what do yeah want?"
"sasuke…what do you think heaven's like?" little megami asked as they both stared up to the clouds
He shrugged "how am I supposta know, my mommy told me we're not gonna finds out for a long time, like when were really old and stuff" he said,
"but what if we get there soon…my mommy says lots of things die early for a reason…" she said quietly
Well were not gonna" little sasuke said, she smiled "if I do die early…will you wait for me?" she asked, he turned his head to her "what're ya talkins about?" he asked confused
"if I die early…would you wait for me?...until were together again…so we can be together forever?" she asked
He started at her for a second then smiled "if you'll wait for me…I'll do the same" he said, she smiled and held his hand
"together forever?" she asked, he nodded "you promise?"
"I promise"
1 year later
Megami's POV
I stood outside in my 5th birthday party dress, with sasuke who looked…shy? Not possible
He said he wanted to give me something, but he sure was taking his time with it, I heard rustling in the bush nearby but decided to ignore it since I thought it was a squirrel or something
Finally I sighed "sasu-chan? What's this about I have to get back inside" I say impatiently
So I'm guessing he was waiting for me to say something because at that he pulled something out, it was a silver necklace with uchiha crest on it, also in silver, it was hard to see but inscribed on the back in tiny letters was S + M= F
I smile, "sasuke…it's really pretty" I say, "my mommy said to give it to the person you wanna be with, I don't really get that but I do like you so I'm giving it to you"
"thank you" I blush, "do you mind?" he helps me put it on, then I turn back around, "so! This means you have to marry me someday!" he demanded
I shrug I had no idea what that meant "sure whatever that means" I say
We hear snickering nearby, I thought it was from the party so I turn back to sasuke only to have him kiss me
It was quick though, after he let go he looked down, I was in shock though but for some reason I liked it, "well…bye!" he said scurrying off
Itachi's POV
I snap my fingers "aw damn I should have got that!" I whisper to myself irritated
Later (kushina's POV)
After megami's party and sending her and naruto to bed, I sat with my father and minato and we began to have the talk we've had for nights before
"father for the last time! She is too young, she is my daughter you stay out of this!" I yell finally feeling frustrated
"kushina, stop being stubborn, if megami is engaged now her future will be set, the same goes for that hyuga girl, we've already talked about it" "she's a child!" "someone has to prepare to take on the clan, if we get ready now we won't have to worry in the future, now I wish to send her AND naruto away, to a school where they can get ready and learn proper etiquette, so she'll-"
"with all due respect they are OUR children and we don't think this is the right way for them to grow up" minato says
I looked down "if mother were here you wouldn't act like this" "now stop it kushina, even she would agree to this!"
"you're wrong, mother always encouraged me follow my own path like how you tried to trap me! Can't you see it in her eyes, she's in love! And I won't let you ruin my babies lives!" she yelled jumping up
Minato followed me and the last thing I saw was father sitting there
Megami's POV
Mama and daddy are fighting with grandpa again, naruto and I stood the door listening in, until mommy and daddy came by the door and saw us
They looked relieved but then daddy took my hand and mommy took naruto's,
We headed outside, daddy opened an umbrella as it was raining, "mama, dad? Where are goin'?" naruto asked
They looked at each other, they stopped walking and bent down to us, "naruto…megami, promise us you will NEVER listen to what grandpa has to say, if anything should happen to us you just run, okay? Don't stop until you've gotten as far as you can away from him" daddy said
We both slowly nod, they smiled sadly "and remember…we will always love you" they said together, naruto's eyes start to tear up, he doesn't know what's going on, neither do I
As we get into the car I clench the necklace sasuke gave me earlier in the day, my birthday would be over in a couple hours, so I held onto it
We drove in the rain, quickly, even I didn't know that was safe, as the rain beat down on the car it became harder and harder for daddy to see
I felt he was about to slow down until
Crash
Part 2 runaway
I knew I had blacked out, my eyes wearingly opened, I couldn't get up, I heard police sirens, my eyes looked around, I saw mommy and daddy laying there, next to them was naruto, with blood surrounding them
On the other side was sasuke and his mother and father, also laying there, I seemed to be the only one awake, finally in front of me was the bloody uchiha necklace sasuke had given me
After that
I blacked out
My eyes opened, weakly though, I heard a beeping sound, finally my eyes popped open, I looked to my surroundings
I could tell I was in a hospital, I saw I was connected to some metal thing, there was a line beeping in zigzag
My head hurt, I tried to remember what had happened but my memory was foggy, the last thing I could place was my parents telling me they love me, aside from that my past life felt like it never happened, the only people I could place were mom, dad…and grandpa
It was slightly hard to breath I noticed as the door opened, and as if on cue grandpa walked in
"grandpa…what happened" I croaked, his face was blank, I could see pain in his eyes
"you and your parents were in a car accident…we brought you to the hospital…but…but we couldn't save them…I'm sorry"
My eyes widened, "you…mean?" he nodded, my eyes instantly filled with water and I exploded in tears, pain burned through my whole body but I didn't care
My parents were gone, meaning I would never see them again
Even with grandpa here…I felt so alone
I could barely speak, it hurt so much, through my water filled eyes I saw grandpa walk over to me, he touched my hand then my eyes flashed
"promise us you will never listen to what grandpa has to say, no matter what happens to us…" daddy's voice repeated in my head
Even the thought of him made me burst out in more tears, "I'm going to go talk to the nurse, I'll be right back" he said walking out
My tears stop, even though they were gone I had to fulfill mom and dad's wishes, I unplugged the wire connected to the metal thing
Suddenly it became harder to breath, but I sucked it up, I opened the window and found it was still raining, I jumped out and fell
For a moment I lay there in the rain, gasping for air my arm bleeding from disconnecting the wire, but I knew I had to push on
So I did what I was told
I stood up and ran
Grandfather's POV
As I talked with the nurse I heard a gasp, it seemed to come from megami's room, when I turned around a nurse was standing there, then a couple nurse's came running into the room
I quickly walked over to see what was going on, only to find megami's room empty and the window wide open as rain poured in, I sighed, everything seemed to get more and more complicated
She was just like her mother
Naruto's POV
I woke up and looked around, everything felt like a dream, I realized I was my uncle's house but that was outside of my home, I wondered what I was doing here
Finally uncle jiraya came in, he was wiping his eyes, when he saw I was awake he came into the room
"uncle jiraya? What am I doing here? And where's mom and dad?"
Jiraiya's POV
I realize he didn't ask about megami, I guess the nurse's intuition was right, he had lost most of his memory, maybe it was best to leave it like that
But then I wondered where megami was…I already missed minato and kushina, I just wish it would stop raining, it's too depressing
Naruto's POV
Jiraiya looked into my eyes as if suppressing feelings, I didn't understand, I just wanted to know where my parents were
I felt like I went deaf when he said those terrible words
I hoped I had heard him wrong, I hoped I didn't hear what I thought I heard, but I did
It felt like someone had stabbed me in the gut and left the knife there, and all I could do was mourn for them
Sasuke's POV
I woke up in my usual bed, with a headache no less, I heard crying down the hall as my room door was open
It sounded like my mother, I wondered why she could be crying, when I tried to get up my body cringed, I looked down and saw I had bandages on my chest and arms, I tried to remember how this happened but my mind was black
As if my past life was a mere dream, so I just lay my head back, I hated forgetting things, so I tried my hardest to remember
With no such luck
Mikoto's POV
I sat by the side of the wall, mourning for my friends, I couldn't believe they were gone…I had known kushina since we were kids and when she introduced me and fugaku to minato…..we were like sisters, we did everything together
And now…
Even their daughter was gone, dead I was sure, but it hurt to think about it, I just wanted them back…I just wanted this whole thing to be a dream, every time I tried to convince myself it was I cried harder
Itachi's POV
I sit in my room bandages on my arms and a couple on my legs, I sit at my table, playing with my video camera and the necklace sasuke had given megami
Tonight had been a disaster, I couldn't imagine life without the namikaze family, I was so used to them
I look to the necklace, somewhere inside of me I knew megami was still out there, so I'm going to hold onto the necklace, until we find her someday
Part 3 never hyuga
Hinata's POV
I sat in my room, holding my brown small stuffed bear, outside everyone seemed to be bustling, maids and servants were running around, from outside I could see our body guards, standing in the never ending rain
Every now and then someone would come in and ask me if I was okay, and every time I would say yes, I didn't understand, why wouldn't I be okay? What was going on? I…I had to know
At some point in the night when everything began to settle, father came in, from my eyes I could tell he knew I wanted to know what was happening
He sighed and sat down next to me, "hinata…you know your aunt and uncle? Neji's parents, uncle hizashi?" he asked me as if I didn't know
"o-of c-course, f-f-father" he sighed and his eyes were filled with pain, "tonight…there was an incident…and well…it seems…they were killed" I gasp
The next thing I knew my eyes were tear filled, they were both gone, I loved them! And if it hurt this much I couldn't imagine how neji must feel…
Before he could say anything else I hopped off my bed and rushed out the door, I heard father calling for me but…but I had to go see neji
I looked for him all over the mansion but with no luck, it was getting dark and from the clouds I could see a thunder storm about to rise
Finally after searching and searching I leaned on a door to take a breath, then I heard…crying?
I peeked in only to find neji sitting in an empty dojo, the lights off, and tears in his eyes
I slowly walk in, I wanted to comfort him, I couldn't imagine what it must feel like, as I put my hand on his shoulder, he stops crying, he looks up at me and…and he glares at me
He slaps my hand away and stand up, "this is all your fault, this is all your family's fault, if it wasn't for you…mom and dad never woulda…I hate you!, I'm never gonna speak to you again!" he yelled running out
I stood their frozen, I dropped my bear on the ground, I didn't understand, neji and I have been close since day 1
How could this have possibly happened, how could things have gone so wrong!...how could life be so cruel
Part 4 life is rough
Megami's POV
My heart was heavy and my eyes were dry, I have been running for miles and what seems like hours, finally I collapse onto the ground, all I had in me was to wish
I wish my parents were still alive
I wish we could be a family again
I wish I could remember my life
I…I wish I could go home
Even with the rain pounding on my face and face and thunder a blazing in the sky, I didn't care, I just wanted my life back
How did it all come to this?
I was cold, hungry, wet, lost, and tired
But most of all
I was lonely
1 year later (all 6 now)
Ino's POV
"d…dis…dis um….uhhh" I couldn't place the word, every time I looked at it they got jumbled up like gibberish, my head hurt from it
Mother sighed and looked to the doctor lady, who nodded, mommy stood up
"we've tried everything, but I'm sorry it's true, she's dyslexic" all mother did was nod sadly,
I'm dyslexic? I wondered what that was but I knew it didn't sound too good
I tugged on mommy's long skirt, "mama what's dyslexic mean?" I ask, she smiled sadly and bent down next to me she stroked my hair back
"don't worry sweetheart, it's not too bad, it just means you can't read things too well, don't worry mommy and daddy will help however we can, were gonna get you a special tutor so you can keep up in school"
I didn't really know what was going on, but I knew I didn't like it
Megami's POV
I've been on the streets for a year now, I always sat in the same place, everyday it became harder and harder to find food, I always felt sick and my head always hurt from sleeping on the ground every night
Few people were kind to me, living a life like this made me think
I've been living a lie
For 5 years I've been pampered and prepped, it wasn't the real world, we weren't real people, a year here made me find reality and also lose hope
Today was my birthday, whatever happens I promise myself I'll never celebrate it again
As I tried sleeping on the ground one night I saw a shadow coming towards, I didn't know whether to run or not, but what was the point?
So I just sat there, and let whatever happens happen
It was a woman, she was in a nun outfit, she looked sadly down to me, "little girl…where are your parents?"
I felt my throat close up, I can't bear to say the words, I guess she realizes what I'm trying to put out
She holds her arm out "come with me" she says, I stare at her hand, I feel like I can trust her…so I take her hand
As we walk I see a building coming up, across the top are the words LOST SOUL ORPHANAGE
2 years later (all 8)
Ino's POV
How dare they! How dare they leave me again! For last 2 years my parents have been dropping me with this tutor so they can leave on trips, or go to photo shoots or something
They left me with her like she was my babysitter, like they didn't care about me…I felt like they thought I was stupid, in my head in seemed like they were saying "I don't' have time for this, she needs all the help she can get, she'll never excel"
It hurt to think that way, but at least I knew that wasn't what they were thinking…well hoped anyways
One day I decided to skip tutoring while my mom was with my dad doing a magazine shoot in Germany, I escaped and trailed out to our back yard where there was a big I could just sit on and enjoy the breeze, and forgot about my learning disorder, my parents and life…and just feel free
But while sitting here letting the cool air blow into my short blond hair I heard crying on my right, I stand up and look down the hill, sitting there was a girl with…pink hair? Crying and rubbing her eyes
I skip down and get closer to her, "hey…girl?" she stops crying and looks up, but then quickly shields her forehead and turns away
"don't look!" she cries, I walk up to her, "what's wrong?" she sniffles, "y-you're here to make fun of me a-aren't you?" she asked, I shake my head, I know she see's from the corner of her eye
"tell me what's wrong- swear I won't make fun of you!" I plead, she sniffles again, "m-my parents won't stop fighting, and g-girls keep making fun of me because of my huge forehead!"
I sadly smile, another girl with parent problems, I gently lift her head up, her hair was covering her forehead, I lift it up and see, I smile
"your right it is big" "see!" she cries, "I wasn't making fun of you, I meant It fits you, you shouldn't let stupid girls make fun of you! My mom always says if someone insults your lifestyle you shoot it back in their face, my names ino! If those girls bother you again you just get me!"
Sakura's POV
I stare at this girl, why was she helping me? Why wasn't she pointing and laughing like all the other girls in the neighborhood, "i-I'm sakura" I croak, "I can see that" she says sweetly
I smile and get up, a blast of confidence just exploded inside of me, I felt like I could take these girls on…but yet there was still the matter of my parents…and why they wouldn't stop arguing
Hinata's POV
Inside my heart felt like it was bleeding, like all my inside's had crumbled up and tightened in my stomach, mother was gone, I knew she was sick but I never thought it would come to this
I guess this is how neji felt, but he didn't seem o have any pity on us, he's been distant ever since that night
After the funeral father also became distant towards me, he would scold me for stuttering and favor hinabi in everything, I felt at a loss
Like I had caused all of this
I desperately needed someone to talk too, even hinabi didn't help
I felt like I was the only person in the world
How I wanted my mother back…
Megami's POV
This orphanage isn't all it's cracked up to be, 2 more years of hell have passed, the kids here were mean, they teased me about my red hair I remember mother used to say that the same thing happened to her
The nuns were strict and they beat any child who misbehaved I could never tell what kind of food they served here, the games were pathetic and all we did was school work then bed over and over again, I wanted to get out of here, I couldn't take it anymore
I didn't belong here, everyday my happiness was blocked and I grew angrier, one day I got so sick of those stupid kids picking on me, I did something I thought I never had the power to do
I beat the living shit out of them, I guess I did take after my mother
But of course that got me a whipping from the nuns, which only pissed me off more, so turned around and used the whip on her
Hehheh…before anymore nuns could come I ran the hell out of there and back on the streets I was
Hinata's POV
I was sick of feeling alone, I had to do something to get my mind off of reality, so every night when everyone went to sleep I would go to the dojo and practice my defense, punching and kicking the punching bag allowed me to get all my feelings out
I even screamed at it, luckily the dojo was sound proof, I screamed and cried at the top of my lungs, why is life so hard?
Why did my mother have to die!
Why won't my father look at me!
What did I do! What did I do to deserve this!
5 months later
It was my birthday again, and once again I was on the street, luckily the nuns had no record of me since I refused to give them my information or even last name, it was the only way I knew they wouldn't take me back to grandfather
It was raining again, I sat in an ally with a hood up, I don't know what I did to deserve this, all I did was live my life…and now, I feel like I'm being punished
Then suddenly I blacked out
Sasuke's POV
For the past few years almost every night, a girl would be in my dreams, I never understood it, she always wore a hat and she was always smiling, she'd call for me, but I couldn't answer
When I asked my parents about it mother just stood up and left the room, then I heard crying, father told me to forget about it
One day they gave me a box, he told me when I was ready to watch the videos and look at the photo album, then maybe someday the girl would come back to me
One of the pictures was of me, naruto and the girl, I framed it and kept it by my bed, in hopes I would dream enough to remember here
Naruto's POV
I thought of mom and dad all the time, every day after school I'd sit on the porch and look to the sky wondering how they were enjoying heaven, I missed our life together, yet I always felt like some part of it was missing
Something I couldn't remember
Sometimes I'd lay on the grass and watch the clouds shape, it never hurt to cry too
One day I saw a girl passing by, I was now just noticing she would walk by almost every day, she always had an umbrella and was walking with a man in a black suit
She was really cute too, for the next few months I couldn't help but think about her and her short midnight blue hair
Until she stopped walking by is when I forgot about her
Megami's POV
I woke up…I looked around and realized I was in a room it was dark and outside it was snowing, and laying on a bed, this place didn't look familiar at all, I didn't feel comfortable, I felt like I needed to get out of here…quickly
The door was open and there was a light in the hallway, a man became to pass by, when he saw I was awake he smiled and came in, he had short brown hair, thick glasses, cream colored skin and was holding a cup of coffee
"so you finally woke up" he said sitting down next to me, I look to him "who are you? Why did you bring me here?...what…what do you want?" I asked fearfully pulling the covers up a little closer to myself
he smiled, "my name isn't important, it's just I saw you there on the street, I always do- it's okay you can stay with me for a while, I know you need a home…" he said
for some reason I felt releaved, did I finally have a home? Even if it was a stranger, that is until he put his hand on my leg and trailed up to my thigh "but….it comes with a price, if you know what I mean…" he whispered
my body shivered, I shook out of his grip "then I refuse your offer!" I yelled jumping up, I wasn't going to give myself away just for a home, I'd rather be back on the side of the freeway
he glared at me "you little brat!" he pushed me back on the bed and got on top of me, I screamed but I knew no one could hear me,
he started to unzip his pants and I feared for the worst
why…why couldn't I just have gone with my parents?
I shook in his grip trying to get out, but he slapped me, the turn of my head and my burning cheek made me notice a lit lamp next to me, I did what I could
I picked it up and smashed it on his head, he screamed letting go of me, part of him caught on fire as I ran out
Out into the snow, I ran, and ran, until I fell into the icy snow, I cried, cried for my family, for my life, my innocence
If I could die now it would be the first good thing to happen to me since that fateful night
Tenten's POV
Mom and dad were gone again, appenrently they were on a battle ship for something or another, I didn't even know they did navy stuff
I'm alone in my house, laying on the living room couch with all the lights off, so I'm guessing they thought just because I'm a war child it means it's okay to leave me alone by myself
What's the worst that could happen
Even now I'm still not used to it, there always gone, I always worry what might happen to them, one day we'll be here sitting together watching our favorite TV shows like a family, then the next day I might be an orphan, I can't imagine what that'd feel like
Having no parents
The thought always occurred to me, I looked to the window, it was snowing, it would be Christmas soon
But suddenly something burst through the window, I sat up, it was a chair thrown in, glass was everywhere
I looked around, and accident maybe?
But then suddenly a man jumped in, he was wearing black clothes and a ski mask, from the side of his face that wasn't covered I saw burns, he was holding a brown bag so obviously a robber
I couldn't even move, he looked around and when he saw me he smirked under his mask "well well well…looks like I got a I got left a little treat"
Even 9 years old I knew what he was talking about, I turned around and ran, I heard him following, when he caught up to me he grabbed my arm and picke me up
I struggled in his grip and he took me upstairs
He dropped me on the bed of the first room he saw, as I tried to get away he slipped off my shorts and ripped off my shirt, tears streamed down my face
"bear with me…I haven't had any in a while" were the last words I heard as my innocence slipped away
Kagome's POV
Senso and I drove home, the first thing we saw was the broken window, I gasped and pointed, when he saw he speeded up, knowing the only thing we could think about was our tenten
I ran into the house and looked around while senso called the police, I ran around ignoring the things that were missing and when I saw no sign of tenten I began to panic, I ran upstairs and opened the door of everyroom
When I opened the 4th door my heart dropped
There she was, naked, on the guest bed, covering herself, staring up at the ceiling and crying silent tears, her body was covered in cuts
I broke down onto my knees, she didn't even look towards us "SENSO! S-SENSO!" I yelled a broken scream
He came running up and I knew he attained the same reaction I had
Tenten's POV
My mother came up and hugged me, she cried in my shoulder but I just continued to stare at the ceiling…I knew it…I would never feel safe again, in my mind it felt like he was still here, his dark eyes staring into mine
My virginity was gone…inside I was alone, fearing the world around me
9 months later
Part 5 when life gets you down
Sakura's POV
The last girl dropped to the floor, her cheek red and bleeding, he held her hand up begging for mercy, phf, like I would give her the satisfaction of it
I kicked her in the stomach, she coughed up blood, ino knocked out another girl and we were done, my revenge was successful, although inside I still felt…empty
Ino smiled at me but saw sadness inside my eyes "sakura what's wrong? We finally got payback, aren't you happy?"
I didn't answer, this didn't feel right, "thanks ino…but…I'm gonna go home now" I said quietly as I turned around and walked away
To be honest I didn't even know what home was anymore, for the past few years every time I came home my parents were fighting for reasons I didn't know, sometimes it would be get physical and I would be forced to stop it
They'd yell at me that it wasn't any of my business and that only made me feel worse, I never knew what the problem was, mom wanted something that dad didn't I guess
All I could do was sit in my room and cry, I remember the days we used to do everything together, the days when they were so in love
Now a day's mom leaves every night and every time she comes back I smell alcohol on her breath, sometimes she'd be drunk
And when she was she'd tear the place up, when I tried to stop her she'd hit me and turn me away, even with ino here
I had no one, I wanted my mother like she used to be, cheery and full of life, not distant and hurtful like she is now
Ino's POV
Tonight didn't go very well, earlier in the day yuki and I got into a fight, he said mom and dad keep leaving because I'm too stupid to get anything right
I hate that word, being called stupid makes me feel stupid, I didn't ask to be dyslexic it's just how I am, sakura tries to help me in school but even she knows I'm at a loss
I didn't ask to be like this, it makes me feel like no understands me, like they don't understand how hard I try to excel
Girls in school say I'm perfect, but I know I'm far from that, even with sakura as a friend
I feel like I'm the last person on the planet
Megami's POV
Is was almost Christmas, I sat in a nerby ally with a small fire as Christmas music blasted through passing cars, I sighed
Part 5 if it gets better…
Will I never know happiness? An I dentined to have a pitiful life like this? I will never understand
I looked up to the night sky, I could tell it was about to snow, but hidden in the colliding clouds I saw a single star, it must be the first star of the night
With no hope left in my heart I decided to make a wish
I closed my eyes
I wish…for a home and a family that loves me, I lay my head back against the wall
It didn't hurt to dream
As I tried to sleep the pain away a woman began to pass by the ally, she gasped when she saw me "little girl?...what are you doing here?"
I couldn't take it anymore, I was sick of people trying to help me but then end up hurting me, why couldn't someone really be nice for once
I was so hungry I couldn't even speak, she saw that in my eyes, she walked over so I shielded myself "p-please I don't have much, you can take whatever you want, j-just don't hurt me"
The next thing I knew there was a wool coat on my back, it was so warm that I subconsciously caressed it, I haven't had a feeling like this in a long time, she bent down next to me
She handed me a sandwhich in a Ziploc bag and hot chocolate in a mug, both untouched, I scarfed down the sandwich and drank the hot chocolate up, real food
It felt so good
She smiled at me, when I wiped my mouth tears started to stream down my eyes, I sniffled, he pushed my hair back like mama used to
"you must be all alone, what happened?" before I knew it I was telling her everything
"oh you poor child" she said, then did something I hadn't felt in a long time
She hugged me, no matter how dirty I was, she did it, and for the first time in 5 in a half years…I felt…loved
She let me go and wiped to tears away from my eyes, "what's your name sweetheart?" "m-megami" I croaked
"why that's a beautiful name, it fits you, my names kagome…would you like to come with me, I promise I'll take good care of you" it felt hard to be able to trust someone again
"no exceptions? You…you won't hurt me will you?" "of course not!"
I slightly smile, another thing I haven't done in years, she stands up and holds her hand out, I take in and she lifts me up
As we walk out of the ally she holds my hand, "I can't wait, I have a daughter just the same age as you, her name is tenten…"
I couldn't believe it, I was having a real shower, kagome told me to take as long at I wanted too, she laid out clothes for me
I've been in here for an hour, I stopped scrubbing half an hour ago, and now I just let the shower wash over me, it cleansed me, for a moment
I felt at home
Kagome's POV,
I saw senso and tenten pull up into the driveway, she jumped out and held the soccer ball as she was still in uniform, her final game for the end of the year
I'm glad tenten was trying her best to smile again, I knew it wa hard, everyday since that night she'd wake up crying and screaming, I just can't bear to see my baby hurt
Megami was slightly the same way, since the same thing had almost happened to her, I wonder what would happen if they became sisters
They have so much in common even…maybe…
"hey mom! Guess what we won the soccer game, I scored the final shot!" tenten yelled coming in as senso came in, I let my arms out and she jumped in them into a hug "that's wonderful sweetheart!" I said
"thanks mom!" she said, senso looked around "is the shower running?" he asked, I slowly nodded but kept a smile on my face, "who's here?" he asked
"that's a surprise!" I say, they both look at me confused, oh I hope this works out
A few minutes later
Tenten's POV
We all sat in the living room waiting for the surprise mom had, it was making me so anxious I couldn't wait! Maybe it was a puppy! But why would it be in a shower?
Why would it be a person? Maybe auntie yoko was here to visit! I loved her she always brought chocolates!
Finally we heard the door open, my heart began to race and I couldn't stop smiling as footsteps headed for the living room, I began to bounce when they reached the living room
My whole expression dropped when standing there was a girl with long red hair, shyly standing by the door and wearing…my…clothes
Mother stood up and walked over to her "kagome who is this?" father asked, the girls backed up at the sight of my father's deep voice, wouldn't blame her
Mom bent down next to her "guys, this is megami…she's going to be staying with us…and tenten, she just might be your new sister"
The girl perked up but I froze, "you're going to adopt me?" she asked hugging MY mother!, haven't I been through enough hell, why was she doing this?
I stood by the side of the door as father and mother talked to that megami girl, I was hoping daddy would be the one to kick her out, but then I heard laughing
I peeked in and saw they were all laughing, that girl….that stupid street rat
Megami's POV
I can't believe it, I haven't laughed it such a long time, it feels so good, these people are so nice to me, but every time I look at tenten she looks at me strange
I hope it works out between us
Tenten's POV
I want her out, I only met her a few hours ago and I don't like her, were all sitting here at dinner, she's sitting in my favorite seat, she's talking to mom and dad
I don't get it, she's been here for half a day and they're acting like she's been there daughter for years, I'M THERE DAUGHTER
Every time she opens her mouth it pisses me off!
"what about you tenten?" she looked to me smiling, I look up not hearing the question, "do you play sports?" "yeah…" I mumble
I see her frown, like I care
Megami's POV
She doesn't like me, I can see it in her eyes and her tone, so much for happy family, and just when I thought everything was going so well
One week later, summer has begun
Part 6 the gift of a friend
Ino's POV
"so, what do you say? When school starts again you guys wanna join us?" meki asked as we stood on the school steps, sakura and I look at each other
Meki the most popular girl in school is asking us if we want to be in her crowd! Of course I'm going to except! This is my chance, a chance for me to get my mind off of everything! Preppy is my thing anyways, this is perfect things finally seemed to be looking up
Hinata's POV
Father just told me I'll be starting school in Ame, away from the family, I'd be living with a trusted garduin and such
Didn't he understand me at all? Starting middle on my own? No friends or anything at my side, not that I had any anyways
Mother always said I was like a pebble among rocks, I never excepted my true self, I know I always had a hard time expressing myself but that was just how I was, still I did know people in my elementary school
This was going to be a disaster, at times like this I wish mother was here even more
Sakura's POV
I woke up in the middle of the summer night from a crash, I jumped out of the bed and ran downstairs to see what was going on, my heart sank at the sight before me
Mother was there, with travel bags in her arms and hands, she ws about to storm out when she saw me, she smiled sadly and mouthed a faint 'I love you' and the next thing I knew she was gone
Father was right there! Watching her leave, his face bear ne expression, that made me angry, how he could just let her leave like that
"father! How could you let her walk out go after her before it's-" shut up!" he yelled, by body froze
"I don't want to hear that tone from you ever again, and another thing, I got a call from your teachers, your grades are dropping, your going to do nothing this summer but study to you understand, forgot about your mother, she's gone" he said walking back into the kitchen
I towards him, why? Why did mother leave, why is father yelling at me? Suddenly my legs gave way and I collapsed on the stairs, tears streamed down my face
I managed to bring myself upstairs I sat at my table and cried, with my eyes closed I saw pictures of the times mother and I had everyone of them seemed to break and crumble to the ground…were did everything go wrong?
I cried, I needed her I needed to see her morning smiles, the nights she would tuck me in, I thought she and dad were so in love
Lies
If my parents didn't last love doesn't exist, before I knew it I had picked scissors and dug them into my skin, the flow of blood felt so good, yet I still felt so lonely
Mom…please come back
Megami's POV
I sat in front of the mirror as kagome brushed my long red hair, "mrs. Sento?" "hmm" she asked
"can you please…please…um uh…" "what is it megami?" she asked sweetly, "I don't really know how to ask this, but when I was little my mother used to sing to me whenever she'd brush my hair, it helped me to sleep at night" kagome smiled
"my favorite was a new day has come, do you know it?" kagome didn't answer, she just began to sing, megami closed her eyes, it felt like mother was right there singing to me, because of that a single tear streamed down my eye
"Through the darkness and good times I knew I'd make it through And the world thought I had it all, But I was waiting for you
Hush, love"
I sang along as she stroked my hair with the brush
Tenten's POV
I stood by the side of the bathroom door listening to them sing, I hated her, she's been her too long, I don't care how much she's been through she can go find another family, she's like that annoying new baby who takes away all the attention and leaves you like you never existed
It was dinner time again, I sat there and watched her eating, she hadn't noticed yet so I finally sucked in my breath and asked the question "so mom, dad, how long is she staying" they all look up at me
Mom formed a smile, "like I said tenten, megami's going to be your new sis-" "she isn't my sister!" I yell finally letting my emotions out after hearing those words
Mother drops her spoon, "she's been here far too long, mom how could you let some street rat in here and claim she's my sister! I want her out!"
Silence falls to the room, even the birds have gone quiet
Megami drops her silverware, "excuse me" she said her voice scratchy as she gets up and runs to her 'room'
Mom and dad look at me, great now I'm the bad guy, if she had never come here in the first place this never woulda…
I get up from my seat knowing what they want me to do, and head for the room
Megami's POV
Will no one ever except me?, I cry into my pillow, I just want someone to love me! The thing I last years ago, was that so much to ask!
"whenever you're feeling down, just sing and someone will come to aid you" kushina said
"Sometimes You think You'll Be Fine by Yourself
Cause a Dream is a Wish You Make all alone
Its Easy to Feel Like You Don't Need Help
But It's Harder To Walk On Your Own" I sang to myself
Tenten's POV
My her door I could hear her singing, one of my favorite songs, I stood by for a second and just listened, I thought over everything mom and dad had told, everything she'd been through
I didn't mean to be mean, she just didn't feel like family, I liked to sing too, maybe…maybe I'll give her a chance, I mean we have both had some…rough pasts
Megami's POV
Suddenly I hear singing behind me, I stop singing and turn around to find tenten standing there following along with me with the song
"The World Comes To Life
and Everything's bright, From Beginning To End
When You Have a Friend
By Your Side, That Helps You To Find
The Beauty you are, When You'll Open Your Heart and
Believe in
The Gift of a Friend
The Gift of a Friend"
She walks over and sits on the bed with me, before we know it were talking, like real sisters, she apologizes for the way she acted, I apologize for invading her home
Home…my hearts in home
Kagome's POV
I stood by the door and hear them talking, I'm so glad! Everything's seems to have worked out, I'm glad I can give both of them my love
First day of middle school
Hinata's POV
I arrive at ame middle, I had on a flowerly floor length skirt, with a elbow length light purple collar shirt, oh how I wished for my hair to grow out (note she has the same hair form season 1 of NARUTO)
I picked up my backpack as the driver went off, I looked around to all the kids walking around and meeting up, hugging each other from having a summer away from each other, I sighed
I really wished I could do that
I took out my schedule and began walking up the sidewalk, then I bumped into a girl with blond hair "hey watch it!" she yelled adjusting her hair back, "i-I'm s-sorry" I said quietly
"what do you have tourette's or something?" she snapped walking around me
"what a freak…" I heard her mumble, my mouth quivered, I sure wasn't starting off well
Ino's POV
It didn't feel to good being mean to that girl, should I be talking when I have a disorder of my own? Now I felt bad, I didn't like meki's rules at all
Tenten's POV
Mom and dad dropped us off in the school driveway, megami and I waved to them as they went off, then we turned and smiled at each other as they drove off, megami sported baggy knee length gym shorts with a blue sports bra type of shirt, I had on a black tank top with a red and white mini jacket with fit blue jeans
It's been 3 months since megami moved in with us, we haven't officially adopted her yet and I really wanted us too, I really did think of her as a sister now, I was the only one who knew all her secrets and were she came from, I didn't believe her when I first heard it but I do now
Megami's POV
I'm really glad I met someone like tenten, she listens to all my problems, like a real sister does, I haven't been this happy in a long time, it still hurt to think about my family but I tried to be happy, for the sake of it, well I had 5 years of smiling to make up, I knew 6th grade was going to wonderful
Sakura's POV
I was ready to take all the 6-8 grade tests on today, since that night I've been studying nonstop, father won't let me do anything, he hardly even talks to me, every day I wonder what mom is doing, I wonder if she thinks about me as much as I think of her, but the worst part about everything right now
Father was getting remarried
Hinata's POV
I walk through the halls, bumping into people nonstop as I try to find my locker, but I'm at a loss, this place is so confusing I think I'll be lost here forever
I sigh I just want to get to class and get the day over with, hopefully without any problems
By some miracle I find it, I immediately notice the person next to me, a girl with long red hair that went to her ankle's, I wondered how one could grow it so long it couldn't be natural, on my other side was a girl with two Chinese buns
As I walked up to my locker I tried my best to be nice, "h-hi" both girls turned to me and smiled, wow they were both really pretty
"hey!" the redhead said "wussup" they said then turned back to their lockers, I took a deep breath well at least that's over with now with the matter of my locker
Try after try it just wouldn't open, I became frustrated, today just wasn't my day, finally a hand reached over to me, it went through the dials and the locker opened, I turned over and it was the red-haired girl, she smiled at me "I know I'm still getting used to these too" she said closing hers after taking her things out for homeroom
"t-thank y-you" I said quietly, she just nods and she and the bun-haired girl head for class, I sigh I should too before I get late
When I finally find my classroom, the door is open and what do you know the first people I see are the red-haired girl and the bun-haired girl, when they see me the red-haired girl motions for me to come over so I do
"I don't think we officially introduced ourselves, I'm megami, this is my sister tenten" she said, I looked confused "how-" "long story" tenten says
I nod, "i-I'm h-hinata" I say, "that's a real pretty name, I'm gonna call you hina" megami says, I slightly smile, wow first day and I already have a nickname
And maybe new friends?...maybe
Tenten's POV
As we sat with hinata…they finally came in,
The preps dressed in their ever so preppy clothes, as they passed by hinata, the one with long pink hair snickered, "wore that skirt in the second grade" she whispered
"nice skirt!" she called to hinata who in turn didn't answer, "loser…" she whispered, the other girls laughed in return, hinata's cheeks turned red,
"yo pinkie, why don't you try keeping your mouth shut, it seems when you open it stupid shit come's out"
We all turned around, the one who had sported those words were megami in a serious tone, it was so weird, I thought she was so innocent
"excuse me tomato head? You shouldn't be talking!" the one with short blond hair said stepping in, megami cringed and glared at them
I remember her saying something about that's what they used to call her mother, I didn't think it was such a good idea for these girls to be talking about her like that, "why don't you stay out of this blondie" I said stepping in and standing up
She glared at me "the name's ino!" "and mine's sakura"
"I don't remember asking for your names" I growl, we glare at each other, me to ino, megami to sakura, it looked like a fist fight was about to happen
But the pink-haired one flipped her hair back, "come on ino, we don't have time for the likes of THEM, let's go meki's waiting" ino nodded and they both walked off but not before the pink-haired one whispered
"oh and you should really stop dressing like a boy"
Hinata looked down, "I feel like this is all my fault" I smile "no it's not hinata, they're just jerks don't listen to them" I say as the bell rings and the teacher walks in
Megami's POV
I wasn't on the street for 5 years for nothing, you'd think I was just there wallowing away, I had to toughen myself up just like mother had taught me too, I gained some muscle and some attitude and I was ready to use it on anyone who pissed me off, I didn't let myself get stupid either, I found ways to catch up to other students, that's how I got let into middle school
Hinata's POV
It was 2 weeks before Christmas
For the last 3 and a half months we've been going on and off with those two girls, sakura and ino, I think there testing tenten and megami to their last nerve
I feel like I started this…like I always cause everything
The say I didn't but still…I think I actually made some friends, I think, megami and tenten are pretty nice to me, sometimes I sit with them at lunch, and always across from us are ino, sakura and the rest of the popular girls
I also found out their both really good in sports, I'm jealous, they're both so confident of themselves, I wish I could be like that…
Right now it's lunchtime, megami and tenten are sitting and talking about football tryouts being only for boys, I don't know anything about sports, I mean I played tennis a little but that's it
As they talked ino and sakura began to pass by and whispered something I didn't catch but megami sure did, she turned around and said awful words to sakura who yelled back in her face
The next thing I know there was punching and everyone was yelling fight fight!, this wasn't good, tenten and ino began to get at it, I tried to stop them but ended up getting in on it
The last person to get in on it was the principal, and his awful words were "After School Detention"
So now I sit here, all us away from each other, tenten staring out the window, megami laying her head down, ino fixing her makeup even though she wasn't aloud too, and sakura reading the English book
Tenten's POV
I can't believe those stupid preps got me in here, man I wish it would snow! I'm getting hungry too, man when I get out of here there gonna get it for sure
Ino's POV
I could be shopping right now, a new store just opened in the mall and I wanted to be one of the first inside, I sigh, this is all their fault
Sakura's POV
Fathers going to literally kill me for this, ugh I hate those girls! I'm in so much trouble when I get home, I hope I don't get beat…oh I really hate these girls!
Ino's POV
As I looked to the mirror to make sure my lipstick was right I heard that tenten girls whisper 'stupid blond', my cheeks turned red, I hated being called stupid…
"shut up!" I yell, they all turned to me like I was crazy, "don't you dare call me that?" she smirks "what stupid? Isn't it true, I noticed your grades are worse than mine, I'm just pointing out the truth!"
I throw my bag at her "stop saying that you don't know anything!" I yell feeling tears form in my eyes
Tenten's POV
I can't believe it, the princess was ACTUALLY crying, and just because I called her stupid? How lame
"you know why my grades are like that? It's because I have dyslexia you bitch!" it felt like my heart fell to my stomach when she said that then shielded her head into her arms
Sakura's POV
"ino it's okay, you see what you did! How can you be so mean!" "how can we be so mean? Look at the girl who's been teasing us since we got here, ms. I'm so good at everything, stop acting like you know everything from the top of your head, it pisses me off in class you teacher's pet!" megami yells
I freeze, was I that cruel?...no…I didn't mean to be…I just "i don't know everything at the top of my head! You don't have any idea, I study harder than anyone!, if I get as much as a B I get hit!, you don't know anything, look who's talking! You think your better than everybody, just because you're good at sports all the boys like you, your such a slut! like your so fucking perfect!" I cry
Megami's POV
Those words pained me, and lately it had been hard for me to get stabbed in the gut like that, if I was anything I was far from perfect, I felt tears form in my eyes
"you don't have any idea what I've been through, I know I've had it worse than any of you, so think before you say something stupid okay!" I scream
Hinata's POV
"g-girls, we should stop figh-" "oh save it hyuga, stop trying to save the damn world already! You think you're so great just because you come from a family like that, stop acting like a spoiled princess"
It felt like someone just ripped my heart out, "y-you have no idea about my life, or where I come from! You think its great being me? Not being able to compete with any of you? My father won't look at me; he respects my sister and has practically disowned me! the only person I had left in the world is gone! You don't have any idea how hard it is starting out like this!" I yell
Regular POV
By now they were all crying, and before they knew it they were pouring their hearts out to each other, telling everything of their past life, megami even told them who she really was
They all lived sad lives' but somehow it made them connect, they were able to talk to each other and found they had nothing in common but 1 thing
They all loved to sing and dance
There past binded them together, and made them into the best of friends
1 year later
Regular POV
In 1 year 5 simple misunderstood girls had dominated the school in their own special ways, meki still ruled though and hated them even more after sakura and ino quit her group
They'd become the best of friends you'd ever see, all with voices of angels, ino and sakura did become cheerleaders for a time, always cheering tenten and megami on at games especially
After a while sakura's father began to leave her alone, so she focused on other things other than her grades 24/7
Cheerleading also boosted ino's confidence and made her work harder, along with the help of the girls her reading and writing slightly improved, it kept coming back and forth, it also landed her a lot of boyfriends, the same for sakura
Hinata began well known in the school too, which only made her shyer, but after a year she stopped stuttering in front of the girls, just to other people she wasn't used too, her confidence also raised and she slowly started to forgot about her home, and started focusing more on the great friends she had, she wasn't much on dating, she was too shy to ask a guy out and never noticed of one liked her until they asked her, which is how she got her self boyfriends as well
Tenten and megami went into sports, as the year went by their tomboyness increased, they also weren't much on dating either although tenten still had boyfriends for the fun of it, she thought she was ready…
Megami didn't care for boys all so much, the way she looked at it is all they saw were A. breasts, B. butt, C. lips, she rejected all the date offers she got because they looked at her chest when they asked he, except for one boy she made an exception to
Kei, a bright blue-haired boy, pretty scrawny and kind of dorky, he was a couple inches shorter than her, they've become really good friends and unknown too her he's developed unspoken feelings for her even going as far as nicknaming 'white rose'
But it didn't mean she and tenten weren't playgirls
The girls would always go to the sento house and hang out in tenten and megami's room (they moved in together) it was the best way to get away from family since their parents were always off at training camp
Their favorite part of slumber parties were laying outside and watching the stars, it gave them all hope that someday…things would get better
Tenten & megami's room
Whine up by kate deluna was blasting from tenten's radio, sakura was playing computer games on her laptop laying on tenten's bed, she had recently gotten bright pink glasses, hinata was fussing with her new video camera she had recently gotten purple braces, megami (who had cut her hair short to her neck almost boy short) and tenten (who left her hair in one messy bun) were playing video games and ino was obsessing over a song that just came on the radio, she now kept her hair in two high pigtails on each side of her (no hair in front yet)
"geez ino what's your problem!" tenten said not looking away from the Tv, "I'm sorry it's just this new band OMEGA! They only have one song but their so awesome, I loooove REPLAY, plus their all so cute, especially sasuke! He's hot" she squealed while hinata video taped "shikamaru's my favorite though"
Megami grimaced as ino hugged a poster of them while dancing to the song
"so hina, when you getting your braces off?" sakura asked, "I still have a week left" she said sighing, "you guys wanna come?" "see you get your braces off?, fun!" ino said sarcastically
"but I can't anyways, next week my cousins coming to stay for a while , he's in the same grade as us so I have to watch him, his stupid friends are coming too and stuff so my dad says I have to show them around" she said switching the radio station after the song was over and went to another one that was playing it too
The next week
INO's POV
"this is the lunchroom, down the hall is the gym so there both easy to find" I said as I walked with deidara and his friends early in the morning in my cheerleading uniform, I can clearly see none of them were interested, like I don't have better things do to? Ugh I had to skip practice for this and have sakura cover for me
I clapped my hands together "you know what why don't I just take you guys to your homeroom so we can skip this tour crap okay?" they nod
I twist around and sigh, but not before noticing hidan give me a perverted look…weird
Megami's POV
I sat at my desk with kai next to me as we studied for the math test later, the next thing I know ino struts in with her designer high heels or whatever with 5 guys
As kai talks I look up to them, one with silver laid back hair and a play boy smirk on his face, another guy with spiky black hair who was shorter than the rest, a guy with red-orange hair with far too many piercings, the 4th guy had hair just like ino's so I'm guessing he was her cousin
And then…I saw him…bright red hair…brown eyes…that odd uninterested look on his face, my heart rate speeded up, my cheeks burned, I felt my hands get sweaty as my hormones jumped up and down
w-what the hell was going on!
I feel like a horny school girl…and that is NOT me!
Who is this guy?
Kai's POV
I looked up to ask her a question but then I noticed megami looking anxious, her cheeks were as red as her hair, I wondered what was happening to my white rose?
I noticed she was looking over at the new students that just came in, especially the one with red hair
Sure wish she'd look at me like that…
Ino's POV
I noticed megami staring at sasori, I smile deviously perfect! Maybe she'll finally date an actual guy and stop acting like one herself! But then I just got a brilliant idea….I should set them up with all the girls!
Oh this is great! There gonna love me for this, let's see I'll introduce deidara to sakura, hmmmm….tobi will definitely meet hinata, aaaand….yeah! tenten with pein since they like the same things…kinda
Then megami with sasori ohhh I can't wait!
Then…maybe I'll take a look at hidan…hehe
Sakura's POV
I stepped into the classroom, I had just come from the library from early morning studying, I was already used to doing this, father had been off my back for a while but I just couldn't seem to bring myself to stop
When I sat down ino instantly bounced in front of me, I jumped at surprise and looked up at her enthusiastic expression, my eyes settled "what is it ino?" I ask
She moved to the side them standing there was a boy, he had the same hair style she did, weird but…he was really good-looking, and not so bad with the body either
I mentally slap myself, I shouldn't be thinking like that! "sakura this is my cousin I was telling you about, deidara this is one of my best friends, sakura"
"s'up" was all he said but his voice rang in my ears, I felt a blush creeping in on my face "h-hi, my name's sakura" "yeah I know" he said matter-factly
I felt like an idiot, since when do I pull a hinata? What's with this guy…and still
I couldn't shake that feeling…
Hinata's POV
I stepped into the classroom with tenten that day as she went on about basketball tryouts, I tried to stay interested but all that washed away when I him…
His short black hair flowed as the wind brushed through it, his eyes sparkled a mysterious and irresistible onyx, his smile took my breath away
I didn't who this boy was but he sure had caught my attention
It only got better when ino walked over with him, I frowned, I instantly assumed he was her new boyfriend until she said
"hey hinata, I'd like you to meet tobi, he's a friend of my cousins and I just think you guys would really click!" she said a little too enthusiastically, I gulped
How could she say that RIGHT in front of him, but he didn't seem alarmed he just kept smiling
And what a heavenly smile it was, if I hadn't stopped fainting in front of boys months ago I would have collapsed right now
Oh wait
Tenten's POV
I watched hinata pass out in front of that dark haired boy, while he helped her up ino turned to me "hey tenten I want you to meet someone!"
Before I could answer I found myself being dragged to the seats, where a boy with way to many piercings was, actually they fit him…he was pretty hot too
"pein, this is my friend tenten, you guys seem to have a lot in common so I thought you'd like to meet her" ino said happily
Wait
What was she doing? I swear if she was trying to set me up with him…
"what's up" I flinched, his voice was slightly deep, it got better by the second, "hey" was all I said, but it seemed to be enough for us to get talking
Ino's POV
When I turned around to get megami over to sasori, I found she was already talking to him
Damn he works fast
And she was actually…blushing? Weird…
I wonder were kai went though…
Anyways, now it was my turn, hidan's around here somewhere…
6 months later
Regular POV
They've been dating for 6 months now, everything seemed to be going well for them, the girls had never been more in love
Even if they wouldn't admit it
But yet the boys had been acting strange lately, and some of the girls had started to notice that
For hinata and tobi, she noticed tobi getting rather…clingy, he wanted to go everywhere with her and tried to convince her not to go out with the girls, he tried to be nice about it but she could see obsession in his eyes
It was the opposite for pein and tenten, he started to get distant with her, refused dates and insulted her, she didn't understand what was wrong, maybe he'd just gotten bored of her…even with all feelings she'd poured into him
Sakura knew what deidara wanted, but she wasn't ready, she kept trying to tell him it was too early for sex and that only made him angry, she was trapped, whenever they were alone he'd come onto her, when she refused he wouldn't speak to her
Ino partially let hidan have his way but like sakura refused to go any farther, he looked like he was patient with her but she knew he was getting anxious , she was getting frustrated
Megami, it was her first time being in love, she didn't notice anything, she listened to whatever sasori wanted, except he hadn't asked for what the others did, he mind was deep in cloud 9 she refused to believe it when sakura said she caught him cheating on her
Sakura's POV
She wouldn't listen, she screamed in my face when I said the word CHEATING, we were best friends! How could she, I mean I knew how she felt about sasori, only about a week ago they finally told each other they love each other
But she needed to stop living a fairytale
The facts were straight, after school when I was walking to my driver; I saw sasori on the backside on the building, with a girl against the wall he was making out with
Megami's POV
I loved him
I loved him with all my heart, he treated me right like no guy ever had, I didn't want to hear what sakura had to say, even kai told me to break up with him…but…but I just can't
And yet…
No, I had to find out for myself
Maybe it was a stupid idea sneaking into his apartment late at night, but he gave me a key so it was okay right?
He didn't have parents like me-which is another way I could relate to him
So I have this issue, when I get suspicious of something I have find evidence of it, it's just how I am
So before I knew it, I was going through his dresser like a little stalker
But then, like the idiot I am, I heard walking down the hall
I slid under the bed, making sure no part of body could be seen, I heard giggling and footsteps like heels come into the bedroom
"sasooori, stop it" she giggled
What the hell?
"hn, come on babe you know you want too" he said, I felt them sit on the bed, my body began to shiver "okay…maybe just this once, you sure your girlfriend won't be mad?"
"what girlfriend?" he whispered as it officially went quiet
I froze in place….sakura was right
I soon heard lips smacking and moaning, I saw clothes get tossed on the floor and before I knew it they were goin' at it
How disgusting, I wish I had never came! I covered my ears so I wouldn't hear him pounding her against the wall and her loud unnecessary moaning as silent tears fell
About an hour later, they finally stopped, the clothes were picked up and from under I saw her, she looked completely like a slut, fully dressed (of some sort) while he only had his black jeans on
She tightened her over-sized handbag on her shoulder then kissed him while he held her lips, I felt a lump form in my throat when she whispered "I love you…" then finally walked out
How could I be so blind? So stupid…I felt pathetic, I knew boys were always bad news, all they cared about were your body, even mama used to say it was rare to find a guy like daddy….
I watched him walk into the bathroom then shut the door, this was my chance, I quietly slipped out as I heard water running from the sink
I picked up my bag from under then tip-toed to the door
Before I could even touch the knob my right hand was grabbed and I was roughly thrown onto the floor
"you think I didn't notice you or see you? How stupid do you think I am, who told you could come into my house?" he yelled picking me up by tightening the grip on my wrist
Tears ran down my down my face, I couldn't even look at him "don't try to turn this around on me! You know what you did! My friends were right I never should have trusted you! How could you! You said you loved me but it was all a lie, don't you know how much that hurts for someone like me! I hate you I hate you I hate-" he slapped me across the face with all his might
He…he'd never hit me before
My right cheek felt like it was on fire, he turned around and banged me against the glass windows, front first with the curtains already closed
He was up against my back, his touch still felt the same as it always did
He trailed his hand down my left side and kissed my neck, "megami…don't…make..me…mad…" he whispered each word with each kiss
"but you-" "she means nothing…I love you" "no you don't!...you never did!" I said that to him but in my heart I didn't want to believe it
When he said it, it felt like the truth, he ignored me running his fingers over to my skirt and slid his hand under it, to were the most vulnerable part of my body was located
He teased it, which he knew made me excited judging by the soft moans I was biting my lip to keep from getting out
Finally rubbing at it my body cringed, I let out a loud yet smooth moan, I shivered when he whispered "stop complaining…you know I make you feel good"
With one hand he tightened skin on my neck, and the other sent waves of pleasure through my body
"now…are you gonna be a good girl?...or-" he dug his nails into my neck making me cry out, "or a bad girl…"
I didn't answer, with the maximum emotions going through me I didn't know what to think
Let him have his way with me?
Or leave the only guy I've ever loved forever?
My body cringed in climax, he let go of me and I dropped to the floor, I hated that feeling, I didn't want it
Not after he betrayed me
I let him run his soiled hands all over my purity, I couldn't do this anymore
He stuck his hands in his pockets and turned around to walk away as I cried on the floor
But I did manage to whisper the words "I…I wanna break up"
He stopped walking and turned his head slightly towards me with a glare stuck on his face "no you don't" he said smoothly then finally walked into the bathroom
That was it, I was stuck with him, he wouldn't let me get away…I had to do something
Hinata's POV
I don't like it, tobi's too close, he's a nice guy but I need my space, he wants too much from me and I'm not ready
I think I wanna break up with him I just hope he understands…
Tenten's POV
I'm so sick of pein
We don't do anything anymore, I'm tired I don't want any more to do with him, it's over between us, it was fun while it lasted but he should have done better
Ino's POV
Everything seems to be falling apart, the girls were doing so well with them! Is this my fault? I just wanted them all to have a great relationship, now I find all this out, come to think of it megami's been unusually quiet lately
Well things aren't any better with me and hidan, he works way to fast, we've had a good run but I I'm sure it's time to let go, he won't mind…right?
Although I was pretty sure I convinced myself I was in love with him…like all the other girls did…
Sakura's POV
Stupid deidara, I almost let myself go last night, one second later and I would have been done for
I'm so fucking sick of him!, I'm sick of all the boys and what they've turned us into, I'm done, screw him, he thinks he's the greatest thing ever—bastard
It won't be so hard letting him down right?
Megami's POV
I am weak
Every time I try to leave him he traps me, every time I do something wrong he slaps me, then fixes it with pleasuring me
This was but a few months after we started dating, and I never told the girls…I did love him, and I did say I let him do anything
He convinced me to start smoking…and damn coke is a strong drug, I was sick with myself, it only got worse now, he even told me it was cool to get a tattoo on the right side of my arm, it was a long dark purple triangle curved and pointing up towards the right, in the middle was a purple circle, then there was another long triangle curving and pointing down towards the left
I tried to stop but every time I do I get this unbearable shakes, my skin turns pale and I get so tired
the red in my short hair is dying out, and I always feel sick
it's not just me though, I know the girls are hurting after they just broke up with the rest of the guys, and they took it terribly, not in the sat way either-
I feel like the only person I can talk to is kai, he understands me so well…yet I'm starting to think that…he thinks more of me than…just friends
"megami! I swear if anything happens to you, I'll be there" he said confidently to me one day when I was down
All I would do was smile weakly, with all the beatings, drugs, alcohol, cigarettes and pressure to have sex
I had nothing left in me let alone pride
One day in school I woke up late so Mrs. Sento drove me to school, the girls weren't there not even tenten
I knew this wasn't normal, nothing had to be wrong because there ex-boyfriends weren't there either
I asked for a bathroom pass so I could scope the halls, no such luck
I tried calling out for them even though I knew it was stupid, before I knew it something struck me in the back of the head and I was knocked out
I woke up
The place was dark, I felt I was sitting in a chair but I couldn't move my arms, I felt rope strangling my sides, suddenly a light came on, and I instantly knew I didn't recognize this place
It was a room, with blood red soft carpeting, the walls were also a bloody red, when I turned I saw behind me was a bed with white sheets, across from me was shiny brown door and a Tv like thing sitting in front of me
"so your finally awake?"
The sound of that voice ran down my spine
Sasori
He came in front of me and the questions burst out
"what am I doing here! What do you want! Where are the other girls?" I demanded to know
Wrong choice
He slapped me
I wasn't allowed to talk to him like that-
"you never learn do you?" he chuckled cynically "none of you do…you've been holding out on us for too long, we've let you be happy but now when it's our turn your gonna treat us like this? You and your slutty friends"
I gasp, he smirks and picks up a remote from the bed, he turns it towards the TV like thing
When it comes on it feels like my heart fell into my stomach
It showed 4 parts in square's, the first square was showing at the top of a ceiling of about a 30 story building, on top of it was a few boys holding ino off the edge while hidan stood by the side laughing, ino was crying
The second was of sakura, sitting on a bed covering herself with a blanket obviously naked while a few other boys stood by her side, she was crying
"smile for the camera cherry blossom" deidara said from behind the camera, she cried harder
"oh..my…god" I said horrified
The 3rd was of hinata, she was in a room with two sides of walls that were two close, I knew she was a little claustrophobic but this would just make her break
She was curled up in the small space screaming for help and crying, I could hear faint laugher form outside it, obviously tobi's
Then the 4th, was of tenten, my body shook at the sight
She was getting beat up, without mercy unknown boys were kicking her and hitting her while she was on the ground, bleeding and bruised =, while pein stood by the side pleased with himself
I began to cry "why are you doing this?...you said you loved me" I cried, "aaw baby-" he said kneeling down to me and taking my chin in two fingers "stop thinking your that special" he whispered
My heart finally crumbled, that was the end of me, if I could die right now…
Suddenly the door burst open, I turned my head, through tears I saw a blur, I cleared my eyes and saw kai there breathing heavily, his blue hair wet since it was obviously raining "m-megami he stuttered"
"kai!" I said
Sasori stepped off me and turned around and glared at him, "I'm really sick of you" he said
The next thing I saw was a gun
The next thing I heard was a gun-shot
The next thing I knew kai was on the ground
The next thing I felt…was pain
He lay there, his chest bleeding, blood coming from his mouth, but yet looked up at me, and smiled
"megami…" he whispered, I couldn't look at him but I knew I had too, "i…i-i…"
"yes?" I said desperately wanting to know what he had to say, "I…i l…lo..lov" he was to late…for himself
He was gone
I saw sasori smirk "finally…now if you cooperate your friends don't get hurt…but if you don't" he turned back to the screen
I couldn't speak, my eyes fell on kai, they couldn't seem to move
He'd always been there for me, stuck with me when I was low not caring how I looked or by emotions
Yet I never really…
He deserved more, the least I should have heard was what he had to say
I may never know what it is
"so that's how it's gonna me huh?" he asked
He clicked a button on the remote, I looked to the screen, the walls in hinata's square started to move closer about to crush her she screamed louder, for sakura the men came closer, I instantly realized what they were about to do, on tenten a gun was pointed to her head, and for ino they pushed her off the railing
"stop!" I yell, he pushes a button, the walls stop, so do the men who seem irritated and impatient, the gun if pulled of tenten and ino is grabbed before she falls to her death, even with everything having as stopped I don't respond, he scoffs
"your worthless you can't fight for your life I should just kill you now and not waste any more of anyone's time" he said the gun on my forehead, "just pull the damn trigger and get it over with! If it means not having anything happen to them!" I yelled, he turned the trigger
Bam
He shot the side of the wall, I let go of the breath I had held, I didn't say anything, he grew angry which was unlikely to be shown for him
"what the hell did I just say, you do it or you die!" he yelled roughly holding my arm with a gun pointed to my face, I gulped in fear, but..but I didn't care, better me than the girls
"fine…I'll do it…just stop everything…please" I begged not wanting anything further, what was my virginity to the girls lives?
He smirked "that's what I thought" he untied the rope and didn't hesitate to throw me on the bed, before I could blink, my shirt and skirt was gone, so was his shirt
Before anything could go any further there was a police sirens heard outside and lights flashing
Suddenly there was a loud bang of the door "police, open up!" a man yelled
Sasori glared down to me, I turned away I hadn't called the police…then who?
The door flew open, sasori came off me, while they cuffed him I saw in the screen's were empty
What happened to the girls?
I sat in the dark on a hospital gurney with a blanket over me, police lights were flashing, kai's body was being carried away in a gurney, his parents stood there crying
Sasori was being taken away by the police, as he passed me he smirked, then mouthed something that would scar me for the rest of my life
I'll be back love
A policemen came up to me, "don't worry, you won't see him or the other boys for a long time"
"what about my friends" I croaked
"it seems your friend…kai called us at just the right time…I'm sorry we couldn't save him…your friends we managed to save them although the've been hurt pretty badly, and your friend sakura…seems she was raped"
Whatever was left of my heart crashed
Suddenly a car pulled up, I turned to it, the girls ran out, sakura came out slowly
They were either covered in bruises or burns, we all wanted to do the same thing though
We wrapped ourselves around each other and cried the night away
After that incident nothing in our lives seemed to go right
Even with sasori gone I couldn't stop the drugs, when I tried to it never worked, smoking was another thing, I didn't even speak to sento and kagome anymore, I couldn't bring myself to visit kai's grave, funny how he died the same day my parents did
Looks like no one wanted me to be happy
Sakura went back to cutting herself, deeper than usual, we tried to stop her but she turned us away, there even came a time when she cursed at her step-mother refusing to except her into the family, it only made her and her father grow farther, espetially when she found out deidara got her pregnant, I don't even know what her father thought of it all, I knew she felt horrible when it turned out as a miscarriage
Hinata grew distant, as if she couldn't talk to us anymore, I knew she had nightmare of that night and now couldn't be in any sort of tight space or else she could have a break down
Tenten also grew distant, the memories of the man from years ago came back, kagome and sento would often leave for training and I knew how much it affected her watching her parents leave and now knowing whether they'd come back or not
They didn't even help to much after that night
After the night ino's mother threw her back on the books, and even ino kept making excuses so we couldn't hang out, making herself busy so she wouldn't have to think about what happened
Finally there came a day were we all had enough, we had to stop running from the problems in our past and face the future
So we came up with a plan
Final part: answers to our world
He was gone…but we didn't know when he was coming back
There were 5 things that were perfectly clear to us now
…ino was dyslexic and she now has an immense fear of heights
Hinata has a servre and fatal peanut allergy…also so claustrophobic it haunts her at night, her mother died when she was 9 years old…her cousin hates her and her father hasn't spoken to her since
…tenten was raped when she was 10, it took her a year to over go the trauma aside the fact her parents are never home and always at war, she cried herself to sleep every night, praying the man wouldn't come back
Sakura's parents divorced 3 years ago, ever since then she would cut herself and cry for her mother to come home, her father, like hinata's, hardly speaks to her…she tried to run away once but just didn't have the heart too…it made matters worse when he got remarried
And me…my parents died on my 5 birthday, I have no memory of the previous 5 years and I'm not even sure I have a home anymore ever since I've taken drugs, gotten my friends in danger, ruined people's lives, and drifted away from the people who tried to call me their family…I don't think I'm ready to call senso and kagome my parents yet…in due time
Even so we all knew what we had to do
We all agreed to take a year off of school to correct the part of our lives we couldn't do together, we promised to keep in touch though
Ino went off to have tutoring lessons and went to special classes for dyslexic kids, she also took up violin as we promised each other we'd learn an instrument too, so we'd know we all did what we had to do, from the letters she seems to be doing well for her self
Hinata began to take special medications that enable her to be able to eat them, she also took classes for people with great fears and social issues, she says it's fun and she misses us deeply. Guess the social issues are clearing up
Tenten went off and went to trauma classes which helped her really well, but she also got a special tutor for self defense lessons so she would never let anyone take advantage of her again, that worked out well
Sakura also went to a class for people with depressions and began taking special medications too stop her from hurting herself, she hasn't seen her mom since the 'divorce' but she doesn't let it get her down, she even got a letter from her once…just saying 'I'm sorry' and 'I love you'
That was all she needed
And what happened to me? Well…I went to a rehabilitation center, it was hard though and I would often have frequent night twitches, screams and shutters, throwing up and in need of the drugs once again…and being kept in a room all by myself in a hospital gown didn't help but after a year I finally started to feel…normal
The day we saw each other again was the day our lives changed, sakura had cut her hair short to her shoulders and decided to keep it that way
Hinata grew her hair out though which she used to cut and ino let hers grow back she now kept it in a high ponytail and left some high in the front, I also decided to let my hair grow as it once used to a little too much though
Tenten had learned to play the drums and guitar. She was now tough and ready for action, funny…she was so different from the girl who'd shield herself in her closet and cry
Sakura didn't look sad anymore, the cuts and burns were all gone and she looked like a new woman she said she had learned to play the violin and cello,
ino told us her reading and writing had improved, not perfect as the disability was still there, but improved, she also had a new fascination for shopping for her and us and creating her own fashions, which was what the teacher discovered was her specialty,
while taking the medications hinata volunteered at the animal shelter there she met a boy named kiba she had become really found of him, it made her happy, in the year she also practiced the piano, being the instrument of her choice,
I picked the electric guitar and regular guitar, for some reason the loud noise got my mind off drugs. I felt like a new world of possibilities had opened up for me and that I realized it was finally time to let go of the past, we all had too because we saw a great future ahead of us
We were sisters
Bound for life
Our past held together…inseparable
Because of that ino decided we should do something to bind us together
So we got tattoos (my idea)
At first hinata wasn't comfortable with it so we let her think about it, it was her choice, in the end she decided to do it
We got our name's in colors of choice
INO was in a bright yellow inside a ring it was on her upper left hip, not visible unless she was wearing a swimsuit or naked , her color and symbol signaling peace: no more fighting, no more harm…we stand together
HINATA was in a dark purple on her lower back with a dove flying above it, her color and symbol symbolizing freedom: we are our own, we shall never let anyone hurt us again
SAKURA was bright pink inside a darker pink heart in the middle of her stomach between her breasts and her hips on the right, her color and symbol symbolizing love: so we always love each other no matter what stupid thing we do or no matter how much we hurt each other
TEN-TEN was in green, with two hands crossing each other behind it this is on her lower right shoulder circling around it, her color and symbol symbolizing trust: we will never doubt each other, sisters stick together through thick and thin
MEGAMI was in white with a circle of red roses surrounding it, mine on my upper left breast almost mid way, not visible unless I show my chest, my color and symbol symbolizing life: we don't have much of it, so we have to make the most and not waste away what we have
Peace, Freedom, Love, Trust, Life
This was who we are, we were bound together forever
Are past may scar us but at least we have each other
No longer will we have to deal with family, teachers, students, and reality alone
We are sisters
Always and forever
Epilogue
When we turned 16 we all got our licenses, tenten and I got motorcycles which we got redone every year, sakura got a Porsche which hinata rode in, she didn't trust herself when it came to riding alone, ino got her very own Lamborghini
During high school kiba and hinata started going out but they eventually broke at the beginning of senior year, even ino met a guy named sai who she had a lot in common with but they ended up the same, the rest of us had sworn off boys…for the time being
We even found out meki's mother was the principal…whoopee
The same process of taking down meki came back in high school though, no matter what the principal did she couldn't break us
Not only that it was also because we became the school dance team, that sort of started in the 8th grade but we weren't that much ready for it…even though we still won every time now
Then came the day in chemistry class
Meki walked up to me while I worked on my paper, for some reasons he started talking trash so I just shot it back to her face
She glared at me "you know- I never did know what sasori saw in something like YOU, no wonder…" I hated anyone who ever said his name to my face again
"whad you say? You wanna try repeating that?" she smirked "I said-""YOU FUCKING BITCH!" I yell, I tackled her and punched her in the face
Everything around me just seemed to go out of balance, the next thing I knew the science room was blown up and me and the girls were standing in the principals office
Expelled
Crap
Our parents weren't too thrilled about it though, so before anything else happened
We were heading to konoha high
T+B+C
