Rest

Chapter 2

The sound of his loud alarm is what wakes him up in the morning. He sits up and winces from the pain in his shoulders. He massages them to ease the pain. "Tch. I get a few hours of sleep and this is how I wake up?"

He looks over to his blaring alarm clock and notices the time. He sighs, knowing what to expect today. He'll be meeting his new team today. Which he still isn't too sure how to feel about that.

He finds it useless to be doing this. After all he did fight and survive a war, so why does he have to join the academy and basically start all over again? All to prove he's a ninja? That he can hold a kunai properly? That he's capable of working in a team?

As much as he finds it useless he still got out of bed and got ready. He'll get through today and come back home to rest. That's what he plans.

"Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto, and Haruno Sakura." Sakura doesn't move or show any expression on his face. But on the inside though, he felt his heart stop for a second after processing his teammates names. He knows who those two are. One of them is the hokages kid and the other is the son of Uchiha Fugaku, leader of the Uchiha clan.

'If I'm going to be in this team then I have to protect them.. They're both too important to die.'

The war may be over but there are still battles raging on. They both are well known throughout the villages and you never know what kind of plans someone might have involving them. His thoughts are cut short by Naruto's voice. "Psstt."

Sakura turns to him, "Yes?"

"You were in the war right?" 'How does he know? He must've found out because of his parents right?'

"Yeah." 'Answering truthfully shouldn't be the wrong thing to do then.'

"Sheeesh! That must've been tough right? I've heard stories about it but never seen it ya know? So that sucks.." Naruto says with disappointment and arms behind his head.

Sakura clenches his fists as horrible images of his past flash before his eyes. 'It sucks huh..'

He looks towards the board, still showing no emotion on his face. But he can feel his blood start to boil. He curses himself for not bringing his medication. For now he'll have to wait until the class is over.

Once class ended he made sure to be the last to leave. He didn't want to stick being crowded with the people at the door. Also because his classmate Hana has been staring at him the last few minutes of class and he was starting to get annoyed.

Hana walks up to him with hands behind her back. He looks at her with a raised brow, "What is it Hana?"

Hana has hair that's curly and blonde with brown stripes. It's currently tied up with long bangs split in the middle. A style he has never seen on her before.
