This is a preview to a story I have in my mind. It is based on Sakura.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.

Sakura awoke that morning feeling extra nervous. It was her first day at the academy. She was excited to begin her life as a ninja and begin following her own path.

As Sakura began walking out she spotted Ino, her best friend.

"Ino-chan! Wait up i'll walk with you!" Sakura yelled out.

Ino having recognized the voice immediately turned around to greet her friend. "Hey Sakura, ready for the big day?" Sakura nodded back and they soon resumed their way back towards the academy. Ino began telling Sakura about her hope of being in the same team as Sasuke Uchiha, Konoha's number one rookie this year. As Ino began blabbering on about Sasuke, Sakura began having a flashback.

Flashback

"Hey Ino-chan, is it true?"

"Huh, what?"

"That you like Sasuke-kun?"

"Oh yeah…I guess this makes us rivals then Sakura."

"….no Ino, you can keep him, I don't want to lose my best friend."

"Really! Wow Sakura-chan your the best!"
