Genre: Romance/Humor

A/N: I couldn't help it! I just had to make a high school fic! And just to give you a little warning, there's a bit OOC, I'll try to make the characters like...themselves? But maybe once in a while, I change their attitudes. And remember, in this story, Orochimaru is the...good guy...I can't believe I said that.

Well, enjoy!


Chapter One: Go Fish


Tsunade glanced towards Orochimaru. She could never tell what that bastard was thinking. That stupid poker face...she wish she had it. She twitched when Jiraiya bursted into a one second giggle. So far, Jiraiya's luck was simply amazing.

The big-chested woman sighed. "Orochimaru," she gave him a serious look, trying to imitate the white faced freak himself.

Orochimaru lightly smirked, holding the cards in his pale, boney hands. Tsunade gave Orochimaru a look and slowly opened her mouth.

"Do you...," her eyes twitched.

Jiraiya continued to giggled.

The three exeptionally high principals of three different schools were playing a game of cards in a small dark room. The lights that flung up above,side to side, happened to be shining in Tsunade's eyes, making her flinch a little. "have a six?" her tone was dead serious.

Orochimaru scooted his chair a few inches back, knowing of Tsunade's repulsive temper. "No," he simply said. "I mean...go fish,"

"NANI?" Tsunade pounded her fists on the round table. "WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY?" her eyes burned with incredible signs of rage.

Orochimaru continued to scoot a few inches more, "Um...go fish?"

"ARE YOU TRYING TO PICK A FIGHT?"

Jiraiya rolled his eyes, "There she goes PMSing again,"

Tsunade's eyes flashed towards Jiraiya and Orochimaru sighed with great relief. "What was that?" she growled.

Jiraiya gave her a smirk. "I think it's my turn." he tried to change the subject. Tsunade snapped out of her anger and nodded her head, taking her seat.

'I didn't lose yet, I still have a chance!' she thought to herself constantly.

"Tsunade," he winked, "you got a six?"

Tsunade looked from right to left, "No...," she gulped.

"L-Liar," Jiraiya pointed a finger at her, "my attention span may be low, but I know what you said a few seconds ago!" he accused her.

"Yes," Tsunade mocked in a serious voice, "I asked for a six," she admitted, "but does it really mean that I had one?" she quirked and eye brow.

Orochimaru and Jiraiya sweat dropped.

"Ahahahaha!" she raised a hand to her mouth and laughed wickedly. Then her laugh came to a sudden halt. Her expression changed immensely. "Here's your damn six!" she threw the card at Jiraiya.

Jiraiya chuckled, "I knew it!" he embraced the card and rubbed it against his cheek. "Whoa hohohoho!" he laughed feeling very confident at the moment. "I'm gonna win! I'm gonna win!" he cheered.


"I can't believe I lost," Jiraiya's expression was dry. And goes for Orochimaru as well.

Tsunade placed her foot on the small circular table and laughed, "Mwahaha! I won! I won!" she did a 'cool' pose and danced around the sore losers.

"Who chose a game like Go Fish anyway?" Orochimaru glared at the perverted man at his side.

Jiraiya lowered his head, "I thought she would lose," he confessed.

"I can't blame you," Orochimaru watched the blond sticking her tongue at the two pathetic losers. "She isn't called the 'Legendary Loser' for nothing," he lowered his head as well.

Tsunade stopped and twitched her eyes. "The look she's giving me...what could it mean?" Tsunade's eyes burned with a passion to hurt someone...someone in specific, someone with black hair and a tongue as long as a ruler.

And that's when Jiraiya stepped in, "Tsunade...were you drinking again? You look kinda funny." Score Two! Orochimaru's saved again! Score Zero! Jiraiya's gonna get his ass kicked!

"Idiot." Orochimaru chuckled.

Tsunade's deadly expression shifted towards Jiraiya. "What are you trying to say?"

Jiraiya backed away, "Heh...kidding! kidding!" he waved a hand infront of her. 'Although, I wonder...?' he thought.

The three principals sighed, "We're pathetic, aren't we?" Tsunade replied.

"No, it's just you," Orochimaru shortly replied. Tsunade gave Orochimaru that famous angered look and Orochimaru quickly said, "I mean...me too, I'm pathetic too, Jiraiya mostly, however-,"

Tsunade snorted, "Save it!" she grabbed a bottle of sake from her long sleeves. "I'm obsessed with alcohol, Orochimaru's obsessed with money, and Jiraiya's obsessed with women,"

Jiraiya stepped in, "NO!" his voice boomed to a higher level, "I'm a super obsessed! Just call me Super Pervert! Aahahahaha! Hohohohoho! Hehehehehe!" he almost seemed to be...bragging?

Tsunade and Orochimaru sweat dropped.

And Jiraiya's weird laughter went on for seconds and seconds, then minutes and minutes. "What a lung capacity...," Orochimaru mumbled.

"WILL YOU SHUT UP ALREADY?" Tsunade smacked the pervert in his place.

Jiraiya crossed his arms, "Finally! I was getting tired of laughing! You should have stopped me earlier!" he pouted.

"You could've just stopped yourself!" Tsunade gritted her teeth while dangerously waving a fist in the air.

"No, I couldn't...," he said.

"Yes, you could,"

"No, I don't think I can,"

"Yes! I think you can!"

"I need women!"

"Where did that come from all of a sudden?"

"I don't know? But I need women! Breast! Give me anything!" he desperately went for Tsunade's chest.

"PERVERT!" she smacked him silly.

Orochimaru shook his head and chuckled lightly. "Just like old times,"

And thank goodness that was finally over. Things got serious from then on. "Jiraiya, Orochimaru...," she smirked deeply. "you remember the deal, whoever wins-,"

Orochimaru quickly cut her off. "We know, Tsunade." he told her. "The losers will have to give up three of his most prized students, it's not going to be easy, especially for me...," he gave Tsunade a cold, hard glare. "but, I will keep my promise, unlike someone I know...," he casted his dry expression upon Jiraiya.

"What?" he noticed the stares he recieved, "I'll keep my promise!" he snorted. "Even if that means giving up my super hot student!" huge tears streamed out of his eyes like a waterfall.

The other two shook their heads, "Drama Queen." they muttered.

"Well!" Tsunade relaxed and slumped in her comfortable chair. "I'm not so worried about your students, Orochimaru." she said, "I hear your school is highly educated along with discipline," she smirked. "I don't think I'll have any trouble, you own an all boy's school, right?"

Orochimaru nodded his head, "But I wouldn't be too happy if I were you," his expression was dead serious. "My prized students...are evil."

There was a brief pause in the janitor's closet.

"And you think I'M the drama queen." Jiraiya whispered in Tsunade's ear.

Tsunade gave him a look and ignored Jiraiya's comment. "Why would you say that?"

"I only think of them as my prized students because their grades are abnormal and they are rich," Tsunade and Jiraiya rolled their eyes. It just had to be about the money...

Jiraiya leaned back on his chair, "Of course, of course," he groaned, "It's the money...," he sighed.

"For everyone, the most important thing...," Orochimaru smirked, "It's always about the money,"

"I disagree," Jiraiya and Orochimaru were now having a serious staring compitition. "It's totally about the women!"

Tsunade's eyes twitched, "You're both wrong!" she pushed the two apart. "You two are really annoying!" her fist began to curl up. "Besides...it's about the booze, everyone knows that." she was quickly seated. "Now then, tell me more about your prized students. They will be arriving in my school this year and I need all of the info I can possibly recieve." she gestured him to keep on talking.

Orochimaru smirked, "Well then...,"

Three of the most feared students in Otogakure high school are Hyuuga Neji, Uchiha Sasuke, and Sabaku Gaara. However, I will have the pleasure in introducing Sasuke Uchiha, the 'leader'.

Many think of him as a fallen angel. Beautiful and wise, he can lure anyone into doing anything, that also includes me. But that boy, is some kind of sick twisted bastard. Another student of mine accidently spilled a single drop of water on his leather shoes...

"I-I'm sorry!" the boy went on his knees and bowed. "I-I wasn't-,"

Sasuke glared holes into the boys face. "What are you going to do?" he pulled the boy up by his collar only to shove him back on the ground. "These shoes were expensive...," Sasuke's eyes were so horrible to look at, the freshman couldn't stand to look at it. Tears formed in his eyes.

"I'm sorry...," he sniffled.

A tiny smirk showed up, "That just doesn't cut it," a sick look appeared on Sasuke's face. He lifted his shoe to the boy's lips and muttered harshly, "Lick it off!" he ordered.

The boy trembled with fear.

"You heard me," Sasuke 'accidently' kicked the freshman's face. "Lick it off! Top to bottom!"

-

-

Tsunade and Jiraiya's eyes widened, "How...how cruel...," Jiraiya spoke.

Orochimaru grim features appeared. "The boy later, was rushed to a hospital,"

"For licking a shoe?"

Orochimaru nodded his head, "It seems Sasuke stepped on a pile of stray dog shit before the incident happened. Not a pretty sight, the boy is still in the hospital,"

"Ewwwww." Jiraiya and Tsunade responded immaturely.

"Then there's Sabaku Gaara...,"

-

-

He doesn't say much, he doesn't talk at all. But when he's alone with someone in the same room, a stranger, they say he tortures them until that stranger is half dead. He comes from a middle class family, leads a pretty normal life, but still no one knows why he does such things...

"G-Get away from me!" a man in the middle of the street shouted.

He was all alone, no one to hear his screams...except for the person in front of him...

"Stay away!" he began to throw anonymous object at the horrifying creature.

"What...did you say?" the person's voice was strange and sinister. "I want you...dead." he whispered in an even more terrifying, sinister voice.

The man backed up and hit the wall behind him, "No...No!...NO!"

-

-

"He was found half dead the next morning," Tsunade and Jiraiya were dead silent. "He saw the attacker, in Otogakure uniform, red hair, a tatoo on his forehead, and black rings around his eyes. It was definitely Gaara."

Tsunade kept her head down, thinking it was probably best if Orochimaru kept his students in his school. She didn't want such heavy weight on her shoulders. Especially if it had anything to do with dangerous people.

"Then...," Jiraiya spoke, "what about Hyuuga Neji?"

"Ah," Orochimaru replied. "Hyuuga...," he chuckled.

-

-

Out of the three, he shows the most violence, in public. People think Uchiha's the leader of the infamous group, but I should know better.

Hyuuga's eyes are so frightening, sometimes, and only sometimes, I tremble, wanting to get away, and fast. His eyes scare away almost everyone. White eyes isn't a very common trait, you wouldn't see white eyes on the street, on the TV, it's very uncommon. And that's probably the reason, why people fear him so much.

Also, his short temper get's the best of him. He once beat a teacher half to death because he simply 'annoyed the hell out of him'. That teacher still lays in a coma from then on.

"What?" Neji cracked his nuckles. "You really want to die, don't you?" he grabbed his sensei by the collar and shook him.

"I...I can get you expelled for this!" the teacher cowered with complete fear. Looking into Neji's eyes, he softly whimpered.

Neji smirked, "What?" his smirk grew bigger seeing the horrified look on his sensei's face. "Is it my eyes?" knowing too well about his horrifying white eyes and what it could do to people. "Want a closer look?" he leaned foward.

"G-Get away from me!" he pushed Neji aside.

But that only made the situation worse. And in front of the entire class, he beat his sensei half to death.

-

-

Tsunade's mouth was wide open, "Wasn't he arrested for doing such a thing?"

"Expelled at least?" Jiraiya spoke.

Orochimaru nodded his head, "As long as you have money, you can get away with anything," he told them, it was in fact the truth. "but it's odd," he replied. "Neji's doesn't have a cent on him, he's not even middle class,"

"Then how did he get away with it?" Tsunade asked, obviously interested in what Orochimaru had to say.

"Do you have to ask? It was Sasuke." he said.

Jiraiya and Tsunade sighed.

"Although they have bad reputations," he told the two who simply gaped at him. "they still care for eachother, even if it doesn't show. They're not totally heartless." he gave a simple wave. "So? Are you sure you want them staying in your school? Can you handle it?"

Tsunade's head lowered and Orochimaru smirked. "I...," her head suddenly snapped up. "I can handle anything! Bwahahaha!" she laughed and laughed and laughed. 'My pride...it's getting in the way again!' she secretly cried in the inside.

Jiraiya smirked, "Well then, I guess it's my turn." he leaned on his chair.

Tsunade looked at him. "Ah! That's right! You have to tell me about the students you selected for my school as well?" she smirked, 'Bet he's going to pick the stupid ones.' she gave Jiraiya a dry look.

"yeah, yeah," he yawned. "my prized students aren't as bad as his," he thumbed Orochimaru.

"Smart and mature?" Orochimaru muttered.

"Weird and evil!" Jiraiya snapped. "So, let's get started, eh?" he giggled.

Tsunade frowned, "Fine, fine! Make it quick!" she sighed. "But I still don't know. You're school is pretty out of control." Tsunade gave him a look, "The complete opposite of Orochimaru's,"

"Sluts rule!

Tsunade and Orochimaru sweat dropped.

"That...has nothing to do with what I was just talking about...," Tsunade's eyes twitched.

"Eh?" Jiraiya quirked an eyebrow. "I could've sworn...I'm hearing things." he knocked on his head. 'Jiiiraiiiyaaa, what do you think about sluts?' "They rock!" he shouted. "Especially the way they dress, SEXY! Unlike somebody I know...," he looked at Tsunade. " Just kidding!" he laughed. "You're super sexy! Tsunade...," he tried to give her a seductive look...which didn't work one bit...

More sweat drops.

"Pay attention, would you?" Orochimaru spoke in Tsunade's place while she was heated with frustration and annoyance.

-

-

Okay! Let's start with Matsumoto Haku! Super cool! Super cute! And super cross dresser! Yes, it is true. Haku is a cross dresser, but surprisingly, he's not gay. That's what he says anyways...

He never did lose to a game of Go Fish, so don't even try to compete.

"HA! I win again!" Haku flashed a girlish smile.

He's an average C student, but somehow, always claims to be a B student...still don't know why?

"I'm a B student! Don't ever call me a C student!" he would say. " And I'm not gay!"

Truly a weird guy.

-

-

And let's see? My number one sexy student, Haruno Sakura! Ahahahaa! Super, Super Sexy! Sexier than Tsunade...sorry Tsunade...but it's true! Beautiful pink locks of hair, emerald green eyes, and a super big breast! Hell yeah! is what she would say...

Her looks gives her a lot of advantages, but for some reason, she's not a popular student at all. I still don't know why. But ever since she started hanging out with the 'weirdos' she's been labled a weirdo herself.

"I don't care what you call me!" She punched the lockers creating a huge, huge dent. "Just don't mess with my hair!"

Yeah...she's in love with her hair...BUT VERY SEXY HAIR INDEED! Hahahahaha! Hehehehe! Hohohoho!

-

-

Oh, and my favorite student...the Great Uzumaki Naruto! Has a super crush on Sakura, and is openly in love with ramen. He says I'm a pervert, but I've seen him peek into the girls shower room! Haha! He has some nerve...

He's an idiot, but you'd be surprised to realize how smart he actaully is once you get to know him. But seriously, he's an idiot...

"Naruto!" the teacher called out his name.

Naruto slept in his bowl of ramen and snored.

"NARUTO!" the teacher yelled a little louder.

"Eh?" Sakura pinched him by the cheek. "What's going on?" his vision was a little blurry.

"Idiot! We're in class, pay attention!" Sakura whispered.

"Naruto, detention!"

"WHAT?!" Naruto fell on the floor hearing people either laughing, or growling at him. "I guess I deserved that." he frowned.

Sakura put up a hand and waved it in Naruto's face. "How many fingers am I holding?" she whispered while the teacher was lecturing.

"Uhh...," Naruto put a finger on his chin. "Two? No! Nine!" he laughed.

Sakura gave him a look, "How in the world did you get two from nine?" she sighed. "Okay, which hand am I holding up? Left or right?" she asked another 'tough' one.

Naruto gaped, 'I...I don't know my left from right!' he panicked. 'But I can't let Sakura-chan know that. Yeah, I'll show her how smart I am!' Naruto grinned. "Right!" he lifted his thumbs up.

Haku giggled. "Idiot." he muttered.

"What?! Isn't that her right hand? I know it is!"

"Idiot," Sakura sighed, "this is my left hand," she gave him a dry glare.

'I had no idea...,' Naruto thought. "Ahahaha! I knew that Sakura-chan! You know me, I was just fooling around!"

-

-

Tsunade muttered, "Is he really your prized student?" she gave him a weird look.

Jiraiya scratched his head, "He's not a A plus student...he isn't even average," he mumbled. "but you'll grow to like him,"

"Your 'prized students' seem like a bunch of idiots." Orochimaru scoffed.

Jiraiya protested, "Haku and Naruto may seem like idiots, but Sakura is an A plus student, a 4.0 student to be a bit more specific," he sneered at his long time rival. "she's brilliant beyond any of the students in Iwagakure high school. She could've skipped a few grades to get into college, but she chose to stay with Naruto and Haku, now that's a real friend." Jiraiya continued to sneer, "Not like you violent, murderer, students you call 'prize'!" there was that staring contest again.

"Oh, SHUT UP!" Tsunade's loud voice got to them, "It's settled," she glared at the two 'grown ups'. "When summer is over, and school starts, make sure your prized students are here, standing in my office!" she slammed her hand on the wooden table.

"...this is the janitor's closet...," Jiraiya replied.

Tsunade's head snapped towards the 'dead meat'.

"Haha...janitor's closet? Tsunade's office? It doesn't matter!" he nervously laughed. "Hehee...don't look at me like that." he cowered under the table.

"Then it's settled," Tsunade smirked.
