Where?

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

Where am I? I've woken up to find myself in some strange castle. I'm quite sure I'm not anywhere near home... maybe I'm the Daimyo's palace? No, that wouldn't make much sense either. I haven't been on a mission anywhere near there in the past year.

I've just looked outside, and now I can safely say I'm not anywhere near home. The trees are almost as nice, but there are too few of them. The room I'm in is amazing, though!

As much as I like it here, I've never been one to write to myself like this, so I think I'll go look for Naruto, Sai, Kakashi-sensei or Yamato-taichou.

Naruto...and Kakashi-sensei?

Hey! Is this Sakura?

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

Eh? Yes... who are you? And how the heck did this appear in my journal??

[inu-nin.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, the journals...Dunno what's up with them, they just kinda do that.

It's Kiba.

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

Maybe it's some sort of chakra trick. I'm sure I'll figure it out with time.

How long have you been here? And have you seen anyone else from home? Where is here anyway?

Sorry about all the questions, but I just don't like not knowing anything like this.

[inu-nin.livejournal.com]

Great, when you figure it out you can tell me.

I just got here a little while ago, so I haven't been here much longer then you. Ino and Naruto are here...Apparently so is a member of Akatsuki. As far as where, no freakin' clue.

Questions are fine, just don't ask me any more cause that's all I know.

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

Sure.

Naruto's here? That's a relief. How's he been doing? I hope he hasn't caused too much trouble... [crossed out "idiot"]

Who's Ino, and why would anyone be named after a pig?

Okay, that's fine; if you just got here, too, I can't expect you to know much either.

[inu-nin.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the brats fine. Useless and completely unhelpful, but fine.

Nice joke, Sakura.

If I find out anything else, I'll let you know. You seem like my best chance of getting out of here. Damn, I really wish someone like Shikamaru was here though, he'd be able to come up with something.

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

He is a brat, but not totally useless and unhelpful. He's just like that most of the time.

Who's joking? I have met some one named Ino here who claims to know me, but I suppose I've forgotten her. I'm pretty glad about it, too. She's quite rude.

Thanks, but I'm not sure how much use I'll be as of yet. Shikamaru might help, but he'd whine for a good hour before he did anything.

[inu-nin.livejournal.com]

He's being that way right now.

That's weird. I wonder why you forgot her. Oh well, if I know Ino you'll get to know her again real soon.

He would but after he finally shut up he'd have about 300 plans on getting out of here.

[solarvampire.livejournal.com]

Naruto-kun? He's here...

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

So I've heard. Is this Hinata?

[ino]

... Naruto and Sai ... ? This must be forehead girl!! Jeez, I must've started a trend by coming here myself~ ♥

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

[heavy spot of ink and a pause while Sakura goes to find a new pen to replace the one she just broke]

Excuse me? Who the heck are you to call me that when you don't even know me? I don't care who you are, but you seem like a very vile person. I don't think I'd follow any trends you set. [scribbled >(]

1/2

[ino]

[ino]

What do you mean 'don't even know you'?! Sakura, this is Ino! Who the hell else calls you FOREHEAD GIRL?!

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

I mean exactly that! I don't know an Ino, so stop acting like we're best friends or something. It's quite rude of you.

No one had better call me that or heads will roll! [scribbled >/]

[ino]

...

No way.

I mean ...



You really forgot?

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

Is there something to remember? Should I know you, though? Kiba mentioned you, so you must be from Konoha.

[ino]

... Sakura, I thought we were ... {frustrated scribble} Well, I guess we used to be friends.

Yeah, I'm from Konoha. Same class as you at the Academy, also a Chuunin, and all that. I'm on the same team as Shikamaru and Chouji.


Why don't you remember?! {completely scratched out}

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

We were? Was I desperate or something? I don't know why I'd want to be friends with some one who makes fun of my forehead.

Shikamaru and Chouji, hm? I remember them, but not you. It's like an empty space, yet I know something meaningful to me should be there. Are you quite sure it's you?

[ino]

... ?!

Ohhh, I get it. This is all some stupid joke of yours, isn't it? I know I call you names all the time, but this going a bit too far.

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

Excuse me?? I wouldn't play a joke like this on a friend even if I was paid to! You're another story though, since you don't even qualify as some one I'd want to be friends with.

[ino]

{frustrated scribbles} ... what about the ribbon? {completely scratched out}

UGH! Just forget it, forehead girl. You're not worth my time anyways.

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

That's fine by me, Ino-pig. [scribbled >(]

You really are a brat.

[ino]

You're such a

I can'

That's no


... I am not a pig.


... Maybe Naruto was right.

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

You're right; pigs would be much nicer than this.

What did Naruto say? How's he doing anyway? I hope he hasn't gotten into too much trouble...

[ino]

At least my forehead isn't bigger than my ass.

... He was telling me about this guy 'Sasuke'. Apparently I've forgotten all about him. I didn't think he really existed, but maybe people here really do forget things.

He's doing fine, though. He finally found out about Hinata, you know, liking him. Not sure how he's taking that, other than the fact that his face was definitely red at the time.

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

I'm quite sure nothing is bigger than your ass.

You forgot Sasuke-kun? I couldn't imagine forgetting him...

That's good to hear. He found out? I'd say it's about time. I mean, it's been over three years! He really is dense.

[ino]

Well, your humongous forehead, for starters.

So he does exist, then ... ? Huh. Well, from what Naruto told me, he sounds like an asshole, so I guess it doesn't really matter.

Yeah. He didn't even find out himself. I had to tell him flat out.

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

Nope. I'm sure you're mistaken.

He is not an asshole. [angry scribbles] Naruto only says that because they're like brothers. Sasuke-kun is cold only because of what happened to him.

Sure. You didn't... man! Poor Hinata! I suppose it's a good thing she's not here, then.

[ino]

Well, I'm sure I'm not. Besides, how sure can you be if you're an complete idiot like you are?

He betrayed the village so he could kill his stupid brother. That sounds pretty assholeish to me.

I tried hinting at it for awhile and he still had no idea. Finally he was like "Wait, you mean she likes me? Haha, no way." I swear, he's dumber than a brick. And he said he wouldn't tell if she did end up coming.

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

I'm no idiot. If I was, how would I have been able to reach where I am now. You didn't apprentice under the Hokage, now did you?

Just shut you giant mouth already! Sasuke-kun had his reasons. If you can't remember him, then don't judge him! I'm happy I don't remember you now! [very angry scribbles.]

Did you still expect him to get it after just hinting this much? I've been hinting at him for years, and there's still nothing. he may be dumb, but he's not stupid. If she does end up coming, maybe something can finally get said on her part.

[ino]

Of course I didn't apprentice under her! She's an old hag. So yes, you really are an idiot.

His reasons? yeah, sure, maybe he did, but they all sound pretty stupid to me.

... Yeah well, you know what?! Maybe I'm happy you don't remember me too!

Well, I don't know, I thought I was making it pretty obvious. Guess I overestimated him. And yeah, that'd be cute if she did. I'm pretty sure he at least kind of likes her, too.

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

I'll tell her you said that when we get back home. [scribbled XP]

[pause while she goes find another pen to replace this one] At least he's not some selfish, stuck-up, shallow bimbo! He'd have hated you so much your father would feel it!

Fine by me.

You really have to spell most things out for him. Shouldn't you know that by now? It'd be cute, but highly unlikely. If he liked her that way, I'm sure he would have told me something like that. I'm pretty sure he just thinks of her as a good friend.

[ino]

I don't think there's a way out of here. At least, that's what everyone else has been saying.

So what?! I'd be GLAD if he hated me, who'd want to be friends with a douchebag like that?!

Good.

Yeah, well, you hang out with him way more than I do. And maybe he just realized it now? I asked him a few ... questions.~

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

Well we can't be stuck here forever. That wouldn't make any sense.

[scribbled and crossed out "You're the douche bag!"] He's not a douche bag. He's had a lot of shit in his life that he doesn't deserve. He's doing what he thinks will make it even. It's a stupid way to go about it though...

Whatever.

I wouldn't know how much you hang out with him, but since you're not on his team it makes sense. What kind of questions...

[ino]

Well, nobody's figured out how to leave. So basically, yes we are.

You know what? Who cares?! It's not like he's here and I don't feel like trying to get you to realize the truth. Duh.

Hmph.

Oh, just things like "do you like spending time with her" and "do you think she's pretty" ...

[pinkify.livejournal.com]

That doesn't mean there isn't a way.

Giving up then? Just as well, I suppose, since you'd obviously lose.

Uh-huh.

What'd he say to those? I bet he answered very casually and cluelessly.

[ino]

I guess. You'd think by now someone might've figured it out if it were possible, though.

Tch. I'm hardly giving up, unless you count calling you a stubborn bitch giving up.

Yeah.

He said yes to all of them. Mostly he was whiny about it."Iiiinooo, I don't knoooow! You can't just decide these things on iiimpuuulse!"
