Summary: She was that shy, seemingly mute girl, with abnormal pink hair. She would sit in the back of the class, and would faint at the slightest touch. And she was the girl who disappeared without a trace. At least she was... 2 years ago. Now she's back, different from before, and unconsciously attracting the attention of some very hot men. AU OOC SAKUMULTI
BTW: I'm trusting Wikipedia for information on Japanese school grades. And it says if you're a first year in high school your roughly 15-16 years old. So... cha.
::CHAPTER 1::
No one has ever noticed her, they've noticed her bright pink hair, but never her. She would sit in the back of the classroom, distant and shy. She wouldn't raise her hand for questions, yet she got perfect scores. She didn't talk, or do anything to draw attention to herself. And she disappears up onto the roof during lunch.
She doesn't seem to like being touched, it's like whenever someone got too close, she would grow rigid, and scoot away as fast as humanly possible.
The only time anyone has really noticed her, is when Takashi Minami accidently touched her in the middle of the year. She whimpered, tears started to well up, and she all-out fainted.
Nobody paid much attention to her from the day on, except the extra caution they took when their near her.
Yeah, nobody notices Sakura Haruno, at least until she disappeared.
She left school early, in the mid-afternoon, and she just never came back. She didn't show up on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and so on. Most people just assumed she moved and carried on with their own lives, but this didn't stop the rumors spreading through the school about her sudden disappearance. Soon though, all thoughts of Sakura Haruno disappeared. Like she never existed, she was banished from everyone's mind, and then she was just a mere vague thought when passing her old desk in her old class.
But of course, life wouldn't be fun if our main heroine just disappears with her reputation being that shy girl in the back of the class who faint's when anyone would touch her.
No, life wouldn't be fun at all.
It was 2 years later where our story begins; two years after Sakura Haruno had mysteriously vanished from the halls of Konoha High.
It would be Sakura's first high school year...

She came in bouncing and shining, grinning madly and carefree. She basically just skipped down the hallway, wearing a pair of dark forest green shorts, dark pink camo shirt, and blood red converse. Jet black wrist bands occupied both her tiny wrists, a cross necklace worn proudly around her neck, and a dark green Konoha sack trailing over her shoulder.
The attention was brought to her rosy lips, stretched into a grin, then to her cute button nose. Then to her bright emerald green eyes alight with the mixture of happiness, anticipation, and excitement. It took only a mere second for the long-time students of Konoha High to recognize the spiky-at-the-bottom, shoulder length bubblegum pink hair.
It took another millisecond for them to recognize Sakura Haruno.
It was hard to believe in actuality. Sakura, whom has always had that sad, scared expression on her face, was the girl skipping down the hallway shamelessly, a grin adoring her face.
The students continued to watch, most shocked and surprised, as the girl hummed quietly to herself, before skidding to a stop in front of office. Sakura's grin seemed to widen as she opened the door, and slipped in.
The halls began buzzing the second a distant click was heard, signaling the closing of the door.

"Hello Shizune-san~!" Sakura chirped, skipping up to the woman behind the front desk, a pig cradled in the brunette's arms.
"Good morning Sakura-san," She smiled, "Sorry Tsunade-sama can't greet you personally, but she's got that stack of paperwork you know..."
Sakura snorted, "Boy do I know it..." She muttered, before her playful eyes directed towards Shizune. "It's alright," She assured, "So where's my schedule?"
Shizune smiled warmly before reaching down to the stack of schedules on her desk. Setting Tonton down, she began searching for Sakura's particular file. "Aha!" She murmured after a while. "Here it is!" Shizune handed the sheet of paper to Sakura, who immediately began scanning her new schedule.

Sakura raised an eyebrow, "Eh? So much classes..." She muttered, Shizune laughed. "It's the slandered schedule in Konoha High. It's not like Suna over here Sakura." A look of remembrance flashed over the brunette's face, "Ah! Speaking of Suna, I have your friends' schedules here. Can you please give it to them considering their not here with you yet..."
Sakura laughed. "Yeah, they prefer being 'fashionably late'…"
Shizune shook her head but chuckled nonetheless. "Have a good year Sakura-san." She waved, as the girl skipped out of the office, humming to herself once again.
She raised a hand in good-bye, before exiting to the loud halls of her old school.

Many things happened during Sakura's absence. There were renovations, and there were new transfer students. Yes. There were many transfer students.
The transfer students were, to be put bluntly, rich kids.
They arrived in a group, because their old school had been destroyed in a fire. Though their old school was rebuilt in a matter of months, the group had chosen to stay there thanks to their newfound... control over the student body.
They came, coincidently enough, a week after Sakura's disappearance.
Sasuke Uchiha, Naruto Uzumaki, Ino Yamanaka, Hinata Hyuuga, Shikamaru Nara, Chouji Akimichi, Tenten Buki, Itachi Uchiha, Sasori Akasuna, Deidera Iwa, Neji Hyuuga, Rock Lee, Pein Kami, Konan Kami, Kakuzu Jashin, Hidan Jashin, Zetsu Kusa, Tobi Uchiha, Kiba Inuzuka, Shino Aburame, and Kisame Hoshigaki.
Yes, a very big group that consisted of 21 rich kids. Though their large number, they prefer to be split into two gangs that Konoha High worships respectively.
The Akatsuki, and the Konoha 11.
Either way, they all have their shared popularity, the amazing looks, the godly riches, and the fans. Oh yes. The fans.
Anyway, the 21 rich kid transfer students all never heard of Sakura Haruno. And vice-versa.
But we can't have that now can we?

"Panda-chan!" Sakura grinned, jumping on the red-headed figure that previously stood stoically in front of the sandy jeep.
"Sakura, get the fuck off me." Was the muffled reply, the male put two hands on her hips, and tore her off of him, revealing two tanuki-like rings around his jade green eyes, and a blood red tattoo of the kanji love on the right of his forehead, which was partially covered by his equally metallic blood red hair.
Sakura landed on the grass softly, and a childish pout replaced her grin. "Mou~ you're so mean Gaara."
The two taller people chuckled at the couple of 1st years, before the male of the two extended a hand towards the pink haired girl. "Oh it's alright Sakura-chan! If Gaara's being an ass, you can always come to me!"
Sakura giggled grabbing the boy's hand and lifting herself up, the boy having taken a rather weird yet appealing look, with purple face-paint, and spiky brown locks hidden a bit under his neko-eared hoodie.
"Kankuro..." The red-head, Gaara Sabaku, hissed towards his brother, Kankuro Sabaku, a dangerous aura seeping out.
"Oh don't get so jealous baby brother," The only other girl with sandy blonde hair tied up into four ponytails cooed, her dark teal eyes shining knowingly.
Gaara glared at his sister, the tips of his ears going the slightest bit of red, unnoticed by the oblivious pinkette, but miraculously noticed by the elder girl. "Shut up Temari."
Temari Sabaku laughed at her little, baby brother's reaction.
Sakura's pout upturned into her usual grin in a matter of seconds before she reached into her bag to pull out the three other schedules. As she handed it to the siblings, she held back Gaara's.
Name: Sabaku, Gaara
Age: 15
Birthday: January 19th
Homeroom- Kakashi Hatake
Math- Baki
English- Kurenai
Science- Orochimaru
Lunch
Art- Anko
History- Yamato

"Mou~" Sakura whined, handing the schedule over to her red-headed friend, "Only 3 classes together." She fished out her own schedule and giving it to Gaara.
He studied it and shrugged. "We've got lunch and free period too."
"Ohhhh~~" Temari teased, "So many date's in a year..."
"Not if I can help it..." Kankuro muttered barely to himself, under his breath. The tips of Gaara's ear turned that faint shade of red again, and he made quick to glare at his the blonde. Poor, naive, Sakura although, didn't get it. She shrugged before tugging on her elder's shirt.
"Yes Saku-chan?" Temari asked brightly, "We'll see you guys at lunch?" The petite emerald eyed girl asked, Temari nodded happily. With no further ado, Temari pinched one of Sakura's cheeks, and strutted into the Konoha double doors. Kankuro gave Sakura a grin, and ruffled her hair before entering his new school.
Leaving Sakura and Gaara with each other outside.
"Let's go inside Panda-chan!" Sakura chirped, hooking her arms around Gaara's before dragging him inside. "It's about time we go to class!"
A small 15 year old pink haired girl who supposedly disappeared 2 years ago dragging a head taller 15 year old boy with a handsome face yet a dangerous aura down the hallway was certainly a sight to see.
And it seemed so to the Konoha 11 also...

"Oi Teme! Look at that!" Energetic, spiky blonde haired, cerulean blue eyed, tanned, 3-whisker-like-scars-on-both-cheeks, Naruto Uzumaki yelled towards his best friend.
Sasuke raised an eyebrow, his onyx eyes following to where the moron pointed at. His lips turned into a smirk.
Two people were going down the hallway, it was weird to see the other students make way for another student other than him or his friends. But it was happening.
A petite pink-haired girl that could be mistaken for a 2nd year in Junior high school if it weren't for the schedule she had in hand that states that she is a 15 year old, with her arms hooked around the other's arm and pulling him down the hallway.
The other was a red-head whose hair strangely resembles Sasori's. A love kanji tattoo was visible despite the bangs partially covering them. Sasuke could see a faint red on the tips of his ears.
"Sakura- wait." The red-head sighed, "You don't even know where Hatake's classroom is."
The addressed girl skidded into an abrupt stop. "A-ano... of course I do!"
If Gaara had any eyebrows they would either have been raised or twitching. "You're lying."
"No I'm not!"
"Sakura..."
"Okay fine. I haven't been here for 2 years, you can't blame me."
"Yeah I can."
"You're so mean."
Sasuke watched amusedly at the pairs banter, as he ran a hand through his jet black locks. His onyx eyes flickering his amusement.
The blonde, no not Naruto, a girl, with paler features than the tanned blonde, peered from behind her locker as she stroked her platinum blonde hair. Her pale blue eyes followed Sasuke's and she tilted her head a bit.
"That's Gaara Sabaku. His father runs Sabaku companies back in Suna." Ino Yamanaka's eyes narrowed slightly at Sakura, "Dunno who the girl is though... what's her name?"
"Sakura from what I heard." Another girl next to Ino piped, putting her chocolate brown hair into her signature buns, as her coco brown eyes examined the pinkette. "Their banter is pretty funny don't you think?" Tenten Buki grinned.
"Ahem," The last boy coughed, his black hair pulled up into a pineapple shaped ponytail, deer-like brown eyes half-lidded and sleepy. Shikamaru Nara yawned, "From what I heard, she's the girl who disappeared 2 years ago. You know... before we arrived."
"Oh really?" Ino pondered, "She's cute... she'll be much better if I can make her over."
Tenten groaned lightly, "Oh great. You've found another test subject."
Sasuke scoffed, "Leave her be Ino. She's probably just some other fan anyway. I mean she's clinging on Sabaku."
Naruto raised an eyebrow sending the pair still bickering in the middle of the hallway another glance. "I wouldn't exactly call that 'clinging' Teme... I mean their arguing."
Shikamaru nodded slightly, "She seems interesting... but probably to troublesome to deal with. We'll leave her alone."
Sasuke and Tenten agreed with the Nara prodigy, while Ino and Naruto sent another glance towards Sakura and Gaara. After a while, the two blondes shrug and continue their previous doings and dismissing further thoughts of Sakura Haruno.

"See! I told you I knew were Hatake's classroom was!"
"You were wandering the whole way and only stopped when you saw the sign 'Kakashi: Homeroom' hanging outside the door."
"Was not!"
"Keep your voice down."
"What if I don't want too?"
Sakura and Gaara entered the classroom too absorbed in their childish bickering to notice the other humans in the classroom.
"Who're they?" A shaggy brunette 15 year old muttered, rubbing one of two red upside triangle tattooed cheeks as he cracked open one eye. "I'm so tired," Kiba Inuzuka whined, as his beige puppy popped out from the unzipped part of his hoodie.
"Dunno." Chouji Akimichi shrugged, before stuffing another chip into his mouth. The two swirls on his cheeks moving as he chewed them. The chub- ahem- big boned boy then flicked a crumb away from his spiky-ish brown hair.
"I- I he-heard th-that th-the-they're th-the ne-new stu- stud-students..." Hinata Hyuuga stuttered out, twirling a stray strand of her dark purple hair, her moon-like, milky white eyes finding her shoes apparently very interesting.
"Well one is new." Shino Aburame piped, muffled slightly thanks to the large collar of his jacket covering his mouth, he adjusted the dark glasses shielding his eyes, and his black hair was covered under his hoodie as usual. "The other one has already been to school here. It's the pink-haired one. The other is a Sabaku, the youngest one to be exact."
"His siblings here too?" Kiba asked, as the two took a seat up in the front of the class, still bickering, whispering on Gaara's part, yelling on Sakura's.
"Yeah," Shino nodded, eyeing the two through amused eyes... hidden beneath his signature sunglasses.
Kiba shrugged, yawned, and lightly slammed his head back on the table and in a few minutes began snoring away again.
"K-Kiba..." Hinata asked, prodding the sleeping boy lightly.
Chouji raised an eyebrow. "You're reminding me of Shikamaru dude. It's disturbing."
Kiba just ignored him and continued to snore.

"YOU'RE LATE!"
Sakura and Gaara, who had scored seats in the second row next to each other, watched with interest and curiosity for the former, irritation for the latter.
Their new teacher, who already branded himself as weird because of his gravity-defying silver hair, a mask over his mouth and right eye, and an orange porn book in hand, apparently found it acceptable to be half an hour late.
"I'm late because I ran into an old lady-"
"LIES!" The chorus came from the back, Sakura and Gaara tilted their heads to the side to sneak a glance to the back, only to see 8 people, Kiba Inuzuka, Shino Aburame, Shikamaru Nara, Chouji Akimichi, Ino Yamanaka, Hinata Hyuuga, Sasuke Uchiha, and of course, Naruto Uzumaki.
Of course Sakura didn't recognize them, and she turned back to the sheepish teacher in the front. Gaara on the other hand, narrowed his eyes towards the lot.
"Uchiha Corps, Uzumaki co, Hyuuga co, and the list goes on..." He thought, "their still here... even though their school was rebuilt." Then he shrugged inwardly, "Doesn't concern me. Long as he leaves Sakura, my siblings, and me alone."
He too turned back to the teacher, unaware of the glance Sasuke Uchiha sent him.
"-anyway," Kakashi said, silencing the 'YOU LATE BASTARD' comments, "It's the first day of school and I guess you should all introduce yourselves." His eyes scanned the back, and of course, it caught Naruto's bright orange hoodie.
"You." He pointed, "Blonde, orange jacket."
Naruto stood up grinning toothily as he jammed his thumb to his chest. "Naruto Uzumaki! Believe it!"
Kakashi snorted inwardly, "Sounds loud and obnoxious. Great."
The teacher continued on pointing at random students, only a few catching his attention.
"Takeru Minami."
"Ayame Suzuki."
"Sasuke Uchiha." Kakashi raised an eyebrow at this. "Uchiha brat huh?"
"H-Hinata Hy-hyuuga..." It was barely audible, if it weren't for the silence in the classroom, Kakashi doesn't doubt he probably wouldn't have heard her if it were the slightest bit loud.
"Shino Aburame," The boy shoved the desk in front of his after addressing himself, waking up the sleeping brunette.
"Erh? Oh... Kiba Inuzuka." Then a soft bark was heard, muffled like it was against a coat of something. "Was that a dog?"
Then the other sleeping brunette introduced himself after being rudely awakened by the same boy, by the same kick to the back chair.
"Mhm... Shikamaru Nara... zzzz..."
"Yuki Abatsu."
"Ino Yamanaka," Sounds like Naruto. Kakashi pondered briefly. Loud and obnoxious.
"Chouji *munch* Akimichi." Kakashi's brow furrowed, "Is he eating chips in my class?"
"Maki Goetsu."
"Nakatsu Beru."
Kakashi sighed inwardly before scanning the room again for any different faces that would otherwise look interesting. His eye caught a metallic red color next to a bright pink.
"You." He said slowly, pointing at Gaara.
The red-head cringed... inwardly of course. Curse him. Gaara obviously did not want to introduce himself.
"Gaara Sabaku." The boy gritted out, a scowl on his face. Kakashi grinned under his mask. "Well he seems to hate me..." Then the teacher let his finger go to the one sitting next to him.
The pink.
"You next pinky."
Sakura twitched, stood up abruptly, and gave a sickeningly sweet, sinister smile towards her new teacher. "It's Sakura, Kaka-sensei. Sakura Haruno."
Then she sat back down, the sinister smile brushed off and a sincere grin replaced on it. Her new nickname she branded on Kakashi didn't have enough time to settle in before a green blur crashed in.
"OH THE BEAUTIFUL EPITOME OF YOUTH! WHO ARE YOU MY YOUTHFUL BLOSSOM?" Bushy-eye browed, bowl-cut haired, Rock Lee roared, kneeling in front of Sakura, one hand on his chest the other extended in a dramatic movement.
The girl sweat-dropped. "U-um... Sakura?"
"AH! THE MOST FITTING NAME FOR SOMEONE AS BEAUTIFUL AND YOUTHFUL AS YOU! WILL YOU GIVE ME THE HONOR OF BEING YOUR BOY-" The sentence was never finished due to Gaara standing up and kicking the poor boy away from Sakura and hitting the wall.
Sakura sweat-dropped even further when a boy with the same milky-white eyes as Hinata sauntered in. His coffee-brown hair tied up near the end into a ponytail, as he made his way to the withering Lee. "Sorry for Lee Kakashi-sensei." Neji Hyuuga apologized, "Tenten and I tried to stop him."
Addressed girl popped out from a corner of the door grinning sheepishly at the silver-haired teacher.
"Sorry again," Neji muttered grabbing Lee's collar and dragging him out, "He won't bother you again."
The students watched torn between amusement and sweat-dropping. Though not many were shocked by Lee's behavior.
Sakura watched as the poor boy was dragged out by the moon-eyed boy. "It should be an interesting year..." She thought, a smirk flashing across her face for a mere second. "An interesting year indeed."
Such a long first chapter... and I still have plenty of idea's bouncing around in my head. I'm working on the other SakuMulti fic's too.
It's just I have lots of idea's for this one.
