OOO

Chapter one: Wow.

-The Act-

Three high school girls stood in front of a shaking student, harassing her with every little word that they knew would hurt her. They made fun of her cherry blossom colored hair; the way it was an un-natural color and how short it was, barely passing her chin. They made fun of her abnormal forehead; the way her bangs went to one side and showed off the largeness of it. They even made fun of her glasses; the way that they didn't show her eyes and covered her face, eyebrow to cheek.

The three young woman shoved the smaller one into the wall and made her fall on her behind. "God Haruno! You're such a scrawny little thing! I bet you just got a bruise by falling on top of your ass, ha!" The girl that was addressed as 'Haruno' looked down at the three pairs of shoes. She grimaced as she noticed that all of them wore high heels.

One pair of blue high heels had blue toe nails sticking out of the front, showing off the tanned foot, then leg that was attached to the person. She knew who those shoes belonged to though, so she didn't need to look up and see. The girls name was Naomi Momochi, the daughter of the swim team captain, Mr. Zabuza Momochi, and the younger sister of Haku Momochi. The siblings were nothing alike, as far as Haruno could tell. Naomi had long, black hair that reached her waist with dark blue highlights everywhere. The only similarity was that they both had bangs that framed their faces. Of course, the girl wore blue contacts, so she wasn't able to tell if she had the same chocolate eyes of her brothers.

The girl on the left side wore purple heels that showed off her purple toe nails as well. This girls name was Ami Mitarashi, the younger sister of the schools math teacher, Ms. Anko Mitarashi. They were so much the same, only in appearance though. The only difference was that Ami had one side of her hair long, and reached up to her shoulders while the other side went up to her chin. Her hair was the color of purple while Ms. Mitarashi had purple hair that went into a spiky ponytail and had bangs covering her forehead, whilst Ami had a few strands there. They only had the same features, but, that was it. Even their attitudes were different.

Finally, her eyes turned to the middle, where red high heels stood. This girl, she knew all too well. Her name was Karin Uzumaki, the twin sister of Naruto Uzumaki. The two were fraternal though. Haruno could tell because Naruto had blonde spiky hair, and Karin had red hair that was long and straight on one side while the other was spiky and a little shorter than the other. Karin's eyes had red contacts and Naruto had naturally blue eyes. Even their personalities were different. Naruto was the loud hyperactive guy that never gave up on his school work, and Karin was the snobby kind that never gave up on boys. The only thing the two had in common was that they were loud, and, they didn't give up on things that they wanted.

Karin, she had bullied Haruno for as long as she could remember. When Haruno was eleven years of age, Karin had taken notice of her insecurities, so, began to pick on her the most. The other two had just begun when all of them entered high school. Karin gathered followers and made them do what she wanted; therefore, more people harassed her even more and more.

"Hey Haruno, why can't you ever be a normal girl for once and dress in the girls uniform! It makes me sick that you wear the guy's clothes, and, what's worse is that you get away with it! Damn! You're such a lesbian look-a-like!" Just as Karin was about to grab her short hair, two pairs of feet came into view.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you Karin. After all, you wouldn't want to go to detention again would? Naruto told me about your no-shopping punishment if your teasing didn't stop." Haruno looked up at the two people that had stopped Karin's slap in mid air. Her eyes widened from behind her glasses as she saw that the schools most popular girls, Ino Yamanaka and Hinata Hyuga.

She admired those two. Both were so confident and stuck up for themselves. But, if they weren't together, students would mess with them, knowing that without one another, they weren't so defensive. Haruno respected them because only because of their friendship. If one of them was in trouble, the other would be there for comfort. And if they were with their group, which had at least ten people, they were nonstop-able.

The group was called 'Team Fox' after their leader; Naruto Uzumaki had resembled a fox, in both fighting and features. He was a well respected guy, from what Haruno knew. His peers, and his enemies saw him as a worthy opponent, therefore, wouldn't bother him.

"You know what Yamanaka? How about you go back to fucking your team members while I continue my job! And you Hyuga, you can go shove your boobs into my brother's face for all I care, both of you just stay out of my way!" Ino's eyes grew into a darker shade of blue while veins appeared on both sides of Hinata's face. "If you don't let her go, we'll stop this by force." Hinata looked at Karin with angry eyes.

Karin sighed and let go of Haruno's collar. She straightened her poster and fixed her black skirt that went up to her thighs and her white collared long sleeved shirt that had a blazer over it, but still showed plenty of cleavage. "Fine then. Don't be surprised if my group starts a war with yours." Karin flipped her red dyed hair to the side and bent down to whisper in Haruno's ear. "This isn't over yet Haruno. I'll be seeing you very soon." And with that, she walked down the hallway with her crew following her.

The two girls that were standing watched as the pinkette stood up and brushed imaginary dust off of her uniform. They didn't get why she wore the boys clothes. Sure, the girls skirts were short, but, did she really hate them that much? The Haruno girl had worn the whole outfit, with long black pants and a long sleeved turtleneck blazer that was zipped all the way up. Boys at least had the blazer off but she had it zipped up completely. They saw that when she stood, she fixed her hair by fixing the purple dragonfly clip that held her bangs to the side, then bowed in a thankful manner to them, and left to her class.

They understood why she hadn't said the words thank you though. Throughout their time of knowing the girl, she had never uttered a word. Not even when the teacher asked if she could recite a sentence from the things they learned nor when any of the people that beat her, she never screamed in pain or had any tears gather in her eyes. Though, you could never see what her eyes held because of the large glasses she had. Everyone only knew her as Haruno. No one knew what her first name was, since she never spoke.

"Ah, c'mon Hinata, let's go to lunch. Wait until Naruto hears about what Karin did, he'll be mad for sure!" Ino grabbed Hinata's hand and went to the lunchroom.

-Last period-

Haruno sat at the back of the class staring out the window. Right now her class was on the third floor, so the view was pretty nice. All of the trees could be seen blooming. She could hear all of the things going on in the background. Their teacher had left early that day so she knew why there was so much noise. She could hear all of the fights going on, all of the bickering girls, and all of the running going on.

Since she stayed quiet, she could also hear all of the schools famous group talking to themselves. On the far right corner there was Team Fox who had ten people, all of which were really good friends with one another. The group leader of course was Naruto Uzumaki. Then there was Neji, Shino, Hinata, and Shikamaru, who were the calm ones and gave the group most of their strength, and Kiba, Ino, Choji, Tenten, and Lee who gave the group their funniness.

Next to them were their allies Team Raccoon which only had three members, Gaara, Kankuro, and Temari no Sabaku with another girl named Matsuri. The four people and were good friends with Team Fox as well. Temari, the girl, was a strong and independent women who was the oldest and dating Team Foxes member, Shikamaru Nara. There was Kankuro, who talked to Naruto and Kiba the most because of their perverted ways, Matsuri always talked to Hinata and Ino because they understood her better, and then there was Gaara who sat and communicated with Neji and Shino the best, since he wasn't a man of words.

Up front on the right side was Team Hebi, who had six occupants. The leader of Team Hebi was Sasuke Uchiha, who used to be best friends with Naruto Uzumaki. They still were but didn't hang out as much since they had duties to their groups. He was also the younger brother of Akatsuki member, Itachi Uchiha and cousin of Tobi and Sai Uchiha. He, like his family members, was a quiet person, so no one knew what he was thinking, except for his best friend Naruto though. Suigetsu and Karin were the ones that were always arguing with each other, and even fought sometimes. Haku was always trying to calm the two down, which caused him to get plenty of bruises. Jugo, Sai, and Kabuto were the ones that just sat there, watching for any people that might be a threat to the group.

Across from Team Hebi was Akatsuki who had ten people in their team. All of which were quiet and didn't talk unless spoken to, except for Tobi Uchiha who was very talkative to everyone, Deidara who always spoke to Sasori out loud, and Hidan who always had bad words coming out of his mouth. The leader of the group was Nagato, also known as Pain to everyone. The only one that was allowed to privilege to call his name, Nagato, was Konan his girlfriend. Many girls feared and envied her for her strength and angelic beauty. Itachi and Kisame were friends just like Naruto and Sasuke. Kisame did all of the talking when Itachi didn't feel the need to speak. Zetsu and Kakuzu were always fighting, since Kakuzu never leant Zetsu money for anything. Kakuzu loved money so much that he would start a fight if anyone as much as touched it. Zetsu had one half of his face in the color of white and the other black. If you noticed him more, you'd be able to tell that he also had split personalities.

Haruno looked back out the window when she got bored at observing all of the people in the room. Her mind was barely drifting to sleep when she felt someone shove her which caused her to fall towards the middle of the class. She went into a sitting position and stared up into the eyes of Karin Uzumaki. She gave her a smirk that said she was going to end what she started. Haruno briefly noticed that everyone had stopped what they were doing and were now staring at the pair.

"So Haruno, I need to finish what I began this morning, so, if you don't mind, just sit back and brace yourself for the pain that I'm gonna cause you!" Karin's leg immediately started to kick her everywhere. She first kicked her on the stomach and Haruno flinched when she felt pain. Karin kicked her multiple times on her stomach but when she didn't see any tears on rolling down her cheeks, it made her angry. "Damnit Haruno! Why don't you cry like a normal girl! Ugh! I'm gonna make you cry no matter what!" Karin grabbed onto Haruno's pink hair roughly and brought her to her knees. "You don't even wince when I do this! Ugh! Well, since you're not gonna cry or fight back, I guess I'll take this pretty little clip on your hair! It doesn't even compliment you in the least."

She tore the clip from her pink hair and proceeded to kick Haruno in the face, which made her glasses break from the rough impact. Haruno stared at the floor, anger seeping in her being. That bitch stole her clip. Her most memorable clip. Her pink hair covered her face as she stood up wiped any blood off her face. She turned and saw Karin trying on the clip, watching herself in her little makeup mirror. Karin turned around and saw the girl facing her way. She smirked as she noticed a frown on the shorter girl's lips.

"What Haruno? Are you, mad? Are you, sad? Too bad Haruno. This beautiful clip is mine now, so, go run along and buy some new glasses, 'because you really need them." She smirked and turned around and walked towards her group. Her brother had a frown on his face as he watched his twin sister mess the schools weakest girl. He would stand up and help her, but, then students would think he was a major softy. He didn't want that so decided not to do anything.

"Give. It. Back." There were plenty gasps as they heard the Haruno girl talk. Karin stopped walking and turned around with a shocked expression on her face. "W-What?" Haruno took a step forward and looked up at Karin. If anyone was shocked by Haruno talking, then they sure were surprised when her hair moved out of her face and green eyes stared piercingly at the read head. Her emerald orbs were so fierce that Karin shrank back in fear. She never thought that she would be scared by a look, but the look that the Haruno girl was giving her was one that probably matched an Uchiha glare.

"You heard me. I said. Give. It. Back." When she heard how the Haruno girl talked to her, it made her get angry once again. She sneered at her. "Fuck no! Who do you think you are! This clip is mine now and I don't plan on giving it back to you just because you spoke! Ah! You make me so angry!"
The read head screamed at her as she ran towards the pinkette. Just as she was about to reach for her hair and pull the heck out of it, Haruno grabbed her by the wrist and gripped it so hard that a loud crack could be heard. Karin's scream penetrated the room and the next thing she knew, she was on the floor.

All of the people around them were gaping at the scene with their mouths wide open as the Haruno girl threw punch after punch at Karin's face. The members of each famous group just stared at the pinkette with shock and interest. Shocked that a girl who's been beaten for so long, suddenly snapped. And what strength she held. Her green eyes, from what they noticed, had turned into red slits as the punches she threw became more powerful.

"Sakura! That's enough!"

Silence enveloped the room. The pinkette slowly turned her head towards the voice and found the school principle, Tsunade, standing there with her hands on her hips. She looked back down and saw Karin's bloody face. There were bruises everywhere, and her upper lip seemed to be busted. A sigh came out of her lips as she snapped back into reality. Before she stood up, she grabbed the clip that was hers and placed it back on her hair.

"Sakura, follow me to my office please. Everyone else, class is dismissed for the rest of the day." The girl now known as Sakura bowed down and followed the principal.

As she left the classroom, everyone couldn't help but think about what she just did. Naruto picked Karin up in his arms and saw the bruises all over her face. He cringed slightly when he saw that a patch of her hair, where the clip was, had been removed. Sighing, he bid goodbye to his friends and walked out, with the Haruno girl lingering in his thoughts.

OOO

Yep. So this has been on my mind since forever! I don't know if I should continue, 'cause I have my other two stories out right now, and I'm really trying to finish them, but, I'm just gonna put it to a vote. What story should I finish first? Leave a message or review telling me which story I should finish first, second, or last please!
