I do not own Naruto, simple as that. Nor do I own any of the songs.(the songs are 'Hazard to myself', and the beggining of 'Just like a Pill', both by Pink)
Never win first place
I don't support the team
I can't take direction and my socks are never clean
Teachers dated me
my parents hated me
I was always in a fight
cuz I can't do nothin right
Every day I fight a war against a mirror
I can't take the person staring back at me
I'm a hazard to myself
don't let me get me
I'm my own worst enemy
it's bad when you don't know yourself
so irritating
don't want to be my friend no more
I wanna be somebody else
I wanna be somebody else
yeah
L.A. told me
you could be a pop star
all you have to change is everything you are
Tired of being compared
to damn Britney Spears
She's so pretty
That just ain't me
so doctor doctor won't you please prescribe me somethin
a day in the life of someone else
Cuz I'm a hazard to myself
don't let me
I'm my own worst enemy
it's bad when you don't know yourself
so irritating
don't want to be my friend no more
I wanna be somebody else
yeah
don't let me get me don't let me
I'm my own worst enemy
its bad when you don't know yourself
so irritating
don't wanna be my friend no more
I wanna be somebody else
so doctor doctor won't you please prescribe me somethin
a day in the life of someone else
don't let me get
oh I'm a hazard to myself

The music ended the song as I walked off stage.
"Tsukiko-chan! That was fabulous!" my friend said to me.
"thank you, Kiki-chan."
This was me, for now. I was on some retarded 'important' mission. I mean seriously, I had to change my name, pretend to be a pop star, and, of all people, Naruto came with me! He's gotten so close to blowing my cover so many times. My real name was Sakura Haruno. Oh, how I wished to go back to that identity. I had mastered a special technique; I could control every cell in my body, individually. I could change the way the way the light reflected off of each cell, changing the color. I could completely change the way I looked. It was possible to go more in depth with it and control other peoples' cells if you can touch a fraction of their bodies, but I haven't gotten that in depth with it. I can cause their cells to perspire, but only in the spot I can touch, not every cell. Its...well...complicated. something that has to do with chakra and whatever. I had jet black hair, with vibrant blue highlights. and I had sea blue eyes.
"You go on again in...two minutes, Tsukiko-chan." Kiki told me.
"yeah...okay." I said "thank you." she smiled and turned to leave.
I went back on stage...
the music started.
I'm lyin' here on the floor where you left me
I think I took too much
I'm crying here, what have you done?
I thought it would be fun
I can't stay in your life support, there's a
Shortage in the switch--
All the power went out, along with all the electricity, making it impossible for everyone to hear the instruments. My microphone was battery powered-weird I know- So I could still talk to them. I heard a scream.
"Everyone, calm down, it's probably just a power shortage, there's no need to worry. I just need everyone to calm down..." It was no use, the were all screaming so loud they wouldn't listen to me if I cussed them out, seriously, they really need to--
There was a crash at the side of the building. Guess what was there, a giant. Fucking. Hole. I mean what the Crap is a--
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
And they scream even louder. It's just a...
my eyes widened as I finally, actually saw the scene being played out in front of me. There was a snake...scratch that, a huge. Gynormous. Green snake. and a silhouette on top of it's head. the first thought that came to mind.
Orochimaru...
I saw everyone running out of the building as fast as they could. I quickly jumped up to a higher area, one of the headlights, and got into a battle stance.
"It's been a while...Sakura." I knew that voice all to well.
"Fuck." I muttered.
"I have direct orders from Orochimaru..." He began.
"To kill me? Shit. I bet he just couldn't do it himself, that's why he sent...you." I said, saying you like it was some kind of fatal virus. He kept that same blank look on his face. Then held out his hand. I saw him mutter something. Then I saw, in the corner of my eye, a snake, crashing towards me. I quickly jumped out of the way, writhing my body, twisting it though the air, then I landed on another headlight. He still had the same blank look on his face. And he spoke...
"I see your reflexes are faster..." It was the same cold, monotone, voice. The same voice I fell for years ago. I felt a stinging sensation on my leg. As I looked down to see what it was, the headlight seemed to shatter. I came flying towards the ground. I couldn't move. I felt myself hit the ground. What was strange was, it didn't hurt. I opened my eyes, which I had closed not to long ago, only to see myself on my knees, in front of the one and only, Sasuke Uchiha. Held down by snakes, not being able to move.
His snakes must have caught me, but that fall could have killed me, why didn't he let me die? well, he probably just wanted the honor of killing me himself.
"Not fast enough." He said. I scowled. Oh, how I hate it when he wins. I quickly brought myself together though.
"My orders were not to kill you..." He says. "I am to bring you to Orochimaru, he is near death, he needs a medic ninja. and if--"
"I am not working for him." I say simply.
"--and if you resist, I am to go to drastic measures."
"Sasuke?" I ask, he looks at me.
"Are you afraid of death?" I ask. He raises his eyebrows.
"O-of course not." He says.
"...then kill me."
He just stares, slightly wide-eyed. However quickly recovers from his shock. He sighed, did a few hand signs, unknown to me, and held out his hand. The next thing I saw was black, however, even in the total darkness, I felt unbearable pain. Every muscle in my body tensed and tightened. It felt as if my skin was ripping apart. My bones ached and throbbed, then...nothing.
I felt warmth, and I could feel something soft enveloping my body. I felt total bliss, total safety, total confusion. Was this heaven? Had I died. My eyes shot open, and I bolted up...I was in a bed. My vision was blurred by a pink Maine. pink? Pink? and it was long. Long! I haven't had this kind of hair since...
"Oh God no, please no please..." I begged as I crawled over to my mirror. I saw me, regular 13 year old me. With an overgrown forehead, long pink hair, brilliantly green eyes. I haven't been like this in forever. Last time I checked, I was 19, regular forehead (i had finally grown into it) black and blue hair, blue eyes.
"Crap." I said quietly. I looked at my alarm clock. 4:30, it read. "Why do I always have to wake up so early..." I said to myself. If I had to stay here, i might as well make fun of it. I get to bug Sasuke, see Naruto, and Kakashi, and mother, everyone!. Oh, this might be good. Still, I can't believe Sasuke spared me. Hah, the 'great Uchiha' couldn't bring himself to kill an 'annoying' little brat like me. Not afraid of death my ass. I slowly crept to my closet. All I saw were the red dresses I wore when I was 13. Man, I had horrible fashion sense back then. I need a new wardrobe. I dig through my closet, finding my mothers old clothes. Which consisted of black cargo Capri's, a black tube top, a red corset top, a thick white belt, and blue fingerless gloves. I slipped my ninja sandals on and put my forehead protector around my forehead, to make my forehead look at least a little smaller.
I was about to leave when I realized something...It was 5:00 in the morning. School doesn't start for at least another three hours. Well, I decided I didn't give a damn. I left anyway. I was walking to school, the sun wasn't even out yet, so it was still dark. I passed the Yamanaka's shop. I figure she's not awake yet. I kept walking. Besides, she hated me when we were 13, right? whatever, I'll think about it later. I reached the school. I opened the door, Iruka wasn't here, but he must have been here earlier, one, the door was unlocked, two, the lights were on. I walked silently in. I sat down somewhere in the middle of the room. It was about 6:30-7:00, an hour before school started, when I heard the door open. I tilted my head back to see who entered. He was staring at me. His raven locks framing his face. his onyx eyes meeting my gaze. I scowled, realizing who it was. He seemed taken back by my actions, but quickly regained his composure. He walked towards me. I kept my gaze on him. However, he walked right past me and sat in the seat a few rows ahead of me. The same seat he sat in before, in the other life.
God, It sounds so weird to say that...
anyway, The next few hours were pretty boring, Emo boy sat there brooding the whole half hour untill people finally started coming.
SAAAKKURRAA-CHHAAANNN!!!!" I heard an annoying high pitched voice screech.
"Dammit, and it was so peaceful..." I mumbled.
"Sakura-cha--whoa, you look different." he commented.
"yeah...thanks?" I said still lookin to the front of the room.
"So...Sakura-Chan...can I sit he--"
"Forehead! Is that you?"...Ino
"Oh, great...it's you too." I said sarcastically.
"If your wearing that to impress Sasuke-kun, your wasting your time, he'll never talk to you." She said in that snobby, know-it-all way.
"Mmhm.." I said, somehow distracted from he conversation.
"What's so special about Sasuke anyway? I'm better than him!" Naruto bellowed
"Yeah right, Naruto! You'll never be better than Sasuke-kun is!" Ino yelled back.
"Oi, Ino!" I said, she looked towards me. "Would you mind shutting up before I loose an ear?" She responded with a glare, then turning around with a 'humph!' and running to Sasuke.
"Why do you all like him so much? I can't understand it!" Naruto complained.
"Naruto," I started, "Don't try to understand, it's not your thing." He stared for a little bit. Then opened his mouth to protest, but I cut him off.
"Just go find out why Sasuke's so 'special' or whatever the Crap you were going to do." I said shooing him away. He glared, but ran off over to Sasuke. I saw him jump upon the desk in front of Sasuke, thus, starting a glaring contest. Girls in a crowd beside Sasuke started screaming things along the lines of "Sasuke-kun beat him up!'. Then a boy in front bumped into Naruto, causing Naruto to fall forward, causing...the kiss. I can't believe I actually let myself watch that again. I involuntarily twitched. all the girls had looks of complete and utter disgust on their faces. Sasuke and Naruto quickly broke apart. Each violently coughing and hacking.
"I'm going to kill you Naruto..." I heard Sasuke threaten.
"Gah! I'm poisoned!" Naruto yelled. I chuckled; this was actually kind of funny. Well, until al the girls closed in on Naruto, then beat him up...Just the same as the other life.
Soooooooooooo...tell me what you think! I probably didn't do very well considering this is my first sic. Flames are welcome! I will only continue if you think i should though. please, r&r!
