I begain with a little history of her life, and basically telling how she became what she is.
well..... here you go!
R&R after u read it!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It all started when she was 5. That was when her father started hitting her. She would get home from school and he would beat her. Her brother tried to stop him, but it was no use. Their father would just beat her twice as bad. Her mother never knew about it. Her father said he'd kill her if she told their mother. Then their mother would have to die to.
The girls name is Sakura. When Sakura was 8, her mother had twin baby girls. Sakura had never been more scared in her life. What if he started hitting them? What if he did the same to them as he did to her? She and her brother did their best to shield their little sisters from the world of pain. And it worked for awhile.
Kyoto, Sakura's older brother was two years older then her. He always protected her from what he could. He was always there after her beating. He helped her hide the marks and bruises. And kept her strong. When Kyoto was 13, and Sakura was 11, their mother devorced their father. But she still hadn't found out about the beatings. She devorced him cause she was tired of his lazy ass. He never did anything. Just sat around, watching tv.
That day was the happiest day of her life. Sakura was literally shining with happyness. But then came the battle of custady over her. She had no choice in the matter. It was all up to her mother and father.
For 3 years the battle for custady over her and her siblings went on. Until the day that their father moved out of the town and near their grandparents. Sakura was still beat everyother weekend. When ever she had to go over. She only went for one reason, to protect Sarah and Samantha, her twin sisters.
Their father had started to drink again, and was more abusive in many ways. He started to touch Sakura. He would go into her room late at night and touch her while she slept. Sakura had woken up once, to find him licking his way down her neck. She had screamed and kneed him in the crouch. That night was the worse beating she ever had.

"Sakura!" One of her best friends yelled, running down the hall after her. The school bell had just rung, signaling it was time to go home. The girl was a head taller then she was and had dirty blond hair and soft blue eyes. They had been friends sence kindagarden.
"Hey, Dani." Dani was short for Danielle. Everyone called her that. Sakura pushed some of her pink hair from her bright green eyes.
"Can you go to Kristen's hallaween party?" Kristen was Sakura's other best friend. She was having a party where they were meeting up with some guy she was hooked Sakura up with. PJ, Kristen's boyfriend, was the one who sugested it. The guy was PJ's best friend.
"Yeah, mom said I can go. But I might have to go to my dads. So, I don't know yet." Sakura smiled to her friend as they left the school. The rest of her friends were standing all grouped together near a tree, waiting for the busses. "Hey guys!" Sakura waved as she and Dani walked over and sat near the tree trunk.
"Hey, Bobby wants to know if he can call you." Kristen said. She had her cell phone to her ear, showing she was on the phone with her boyfriend PJ.
"Yeah, I don't care. Tell PJ I said hi." Sakura took out her phone as it started vibrating in her pocket. She had a message from her brother.
I cnt take u home. ride bus!
-Kyoto :-P
Sakura sighed and shut her phone. She hated riding the bus. Oh well. At least Bobby was going to call her, so she had someone to talk to on the way home. Dani lived down the road from her, but so did her boyfriend. So Sakura was always kinda left out when he was around.
Sakura wasn't thinking of that though. She was thinking about this weekend. Would she go to the party, or go to her dads? She knew which one she wanted to do, but she wasn't sure if she could leave her sisters alone with him. But, what would not going for one weekend do? Her bus pulled up and stopped.
"Later." Sakura stood and waited for Danielle before she went to her bus. Tanner, Danielle's boyfriend, caught up with them just before they got on. He was always late, because he was a trouble maker in classes and had to stay after to clean up what ever he did.
Sakura took her assigned seat and sat next to the window. The person who she shared the seat with was in florida for the week, so she didn't have to worry about moving her bag out of the way. Just as the bus started moving, she phone started ringing. She looked at the caller ID and smiled. It was Bobby.
"Hello?"
"Hey babe." Bobby always called her babe, or sweet girl. But he only called her sweet girl when no one was around. It was his name for her.
"Hey, Booby." Booby was her nickname for him. He didn't mind. Considering how it became his nickname was intirely his falt.
"How was school?"
"Ugh... Is it ever any different?" Sakrua gave a small laugh and put her forhead against the window.
"True, true." He laughed.
"How was your day?"
"Eh, it was fine. Saw my dad earlyer though." Bobby and PJ got out at 1:30 insted of 2:30. It always made her mad when they would text her while she was in school, saying that they were out and she still had an hour left.
"I'm sorry." Bobby hated his father, just like Sakura did. "What happened?"
"It wasn't that bad. We just yelled and I stormed off." She could tell Bobby was rubbing his forhead because he was talking quietly and the sound in his voice.
"At least you didn't hit him this time." Sakura tried to give a small laugh, to lighten his mood.
"Yeah thats true." Bobby laughed, showing it worked. "So can you come to the party? I found out I can go." Bobby worked as a volenteer firefighter. He said he might not be able to go, because he had to stay at the firehouse on fire duty, but it turned out he didn't have to.
"I might be able to." Sakura smiled, thinking about how cool it would be to finally meet him. She had met PJ before, but Bobby couldn't go because his mom was sick and he had to watch his little sister. "I have to check with my dad."
"You still have to ask him? Why don't you just-" He gave a frusterated sigh. "Never mind. Alright ask and let me know, babe."
"I will." Sakura whispered, her smile gone. She had told him everything thats happened between her and her father. She had called him one night crying her eyes out because of something stupid and everything had just slipped. He was the only one, other then Kyoto, that knew the whole story.
"Hey babe, I gutta go."
"Alright. I'll call you later ok?" Sakura looked up at the sky as she spoke. The rain was coming.
"Yup. Talk to you later, Sweet girl. Love you."
"Love you, too. Bye." Bobby mumbled a small bye and the line went dead. Sakura looked around her and saw it was almost her stop. They just had to turn the corner and she could see her driveway.
The bus came to a stop and Sakura stood along with the girl that lived across from her. Sakura waved to Dani and Tanner and walked down the isle and got off the bus. She walked over to her mail box and pulled out what was inside. She slowly walked up the driveway as she flipped through the mail. She stopped dead in her tracks as she saw the return adress of one of them.
Sakura dropped all the other mail and ripped open the one letter. Her green eyes filled with tears as she skimmed the paper. But her eyes fell on one line. She read it over and over.
'We will be over your house at noon this Saturday to help your family move, we are glad you will be coming to Konoha.'
Everything went dead. The music that was pounding in her ears went silent. The world went blank. She could see nothing but those words. She couldn't even hear the car that was pulling in behind her.
"Sakura?" Her mother got out of the car and walked up behind her. "Oh..." Was all she said when she saw the letter in her hands.
"You didn't tell me..." It came out more as a statment. Tears were threatening to fall from her bright green eyes. "Why...?"
"Because I knew you'd object, Sakura. We are moving, and thats final. Go start to pack. I love you, but I got a better paying job in Konoha." Her mother got back in the car and pulled up more as Sakura made her way to the house. It was no use arguwing. They were moving, and far away at that.
Sakura went up to her room and plopped down on her bed, staring up at the ceiling. She was thinking about the move. Would they all still be friends? Would she still be able to see them? most of her friends here sucked. She had a few, and only one understood her. She had to wear a mask everyday so that no one would make fun of her, but she was still made fun of. She tried to be happy. She really did.

Empty boxes sat in front of her door, and a few full ones next to her bed. Sakura had started to pack around 5, and it was now 7. Her room was a total pig-stine, so she had to clean up all of her crap and pack what she wanted to keep.
She had just moved onto cleaning out her closet when her cell phone started ringing.
"Hello?" Sakura answered the phone without looking at the caller ID.
"Hey, babe. What's up?" Bobby's voice came from the other end, making her smile a little. But it disappeared when she remembered she was moving.
"Ugh..." Sakura slid down the closest wall with a groan. "My moms making us move to Konoha. Where ever that is."
"Damn. You searious?"
"Yeah, no joke. It fucking sucks. I mean, I've always wanted to move, but now... Now I don't want to. I'll be farther away from you." Sakura sighed and tucked her face under her knees that were hugged against her chest. "And the worst part is, we're moving this weekend."
"Dude, not cool. The party is this weekend!" Sakura could hear PJ's voice in the background, asking what was going on. "Hold on a sec." Bobby told him, and Sakura heard him yell, something like, 'She's not fucking moving! We will go and fucking pick her up for the damn party if we have to!' Sakura smiled at her friends use of words. He always swore.
"Hey, Booby, I've gutta go. I'll call you tomorrow before I get to school." Sakura said after seeing Kristens number under call waiting.
"Alright, babe. But you're going to that party. Night, love you." A 'Awwww' was heard in the background coming from PJ, followed by a 'Ow! What the fuck!?' Sakura laughed.
"Night, Booby. Love yah too." Sakura clicked the button and started to tell Kristen about the pickle she was in.
Kristen was the only one out of all her friends that understood her. They were both kinda dark, and liked punk things. They both love to listen to metal and shop at HotTopic. They did almost everything together. They were as close to sisters as friends could get.

It was the next day at lunch, the time of day when Sakura's whole group of friends were together. They sat at the outside table and talked.
"Guys, I have something I need to tell all of you." Sakura said. Everyone stopped talking and looked at her. Sakura was usually quiet unless talked to. So when she asked for their attention, it was rare, they made a point to listen to her.
"What is it?" Brittany asked, pushing her light brown curl from her face.
"I'm moving."
"WHAT?!" Everyone yelled, making Sakura and Kristen cover their ears. Her friends could be really loud.
"I'm moving. We're moving to Konoha." Sakura stood up and put her tray away. When she came back, they were all whispering about something. Then she remembered the big go away party they threw for Janelle who moved away a few summers ago. "Not party, absaloutly not."
"To bad, chicky poo!" Danielle said and they went back to the talking.
Sakura sighed and started to walk away. She could hear Kristen following her. "How come you didn't say it was this weekend?"
"Because by the time they have the party all decided, I'll be long gone." Sakura gave her a week smile and they both headed to their oppiest classes.

"Hello?" A male voice answered the phone.
"Hey booby." Sakura smiled when she heared his frusterated sigh. Sakura had got out of class and gone to the bathroom so they could talk. She always called him at 1:30, cause she knew he had just got out of school.
"Hey babe. Why do you insist on calling me that?"
"Cause it's funny!" Sakura laughed. "How was school?"
"It was 'iight. We had a few big tests, but that's 'bout it." Sakura could hear his feet from the speaker on her phone. He was heading to his car.
"I wont be able to talk later. We're bringing some of the stuff over today." Sakura's voice had changed. It wasn't sad, or scared. Just disappointed.
"It's 'iight, sweet girl. Remember, I need directions so I can pick you up for the party. And I'll bring you home sunday."
"I'll get them. Mom said I could go with you guys, and the twins are going to my nana's this weekend so she can unpack and stuff."
"Dad not taking them?"
"No." Sakura's voice was almost a whisper.
"Are you ok?"
"... I really don't know.... I've gutta go. I can't miss the whole class. Bye." Sakura didn't even wait for a reply before hanging up. She hated it when his voice turned all serious. That's the voice that makes her spill everything. And now, she hated to hear it. Her secrets were ment to be secrets.
Sakura shoved her phone in her pocket and left the bathroom, almost running into a teacher. She hated all the teachers in the school. The only cool one was her advissor, Herb. He was the best. He could tell when she wanted to be left alone, or when she wanted to talk to someone. He understood her. And he was one of the main reasons why she didn't want to leave.
She walked back to her 4th period class. Global with Mr. Abbot. She hated that class. All they did was watch movies about countrys she's never been to, and take tests about them. The only cool thing about that class was they got to pick their own country to study, and she picked Japan. She learned really cool things and even learned how to fight with a sword.
