Uzumaki Naruto rushed towards his favorite spot in Konohagakure.  His heart was pounding as he ran faster then lightning.  His spiked blond hair laid flat on his scalp due to his speed.  His baby blue eyes were wide with concern.  ‘How could something like this happen?’  His mind screamed.

Haruno Sakura walked out of the flower shop her friend was working at.  She released a deep sigh as she held a basket of wild flowers in front of her.  Her shoulder length rose colored hair shifted slightly in the calm air.  Her light sea green eyes focused to the sun light as she smiled.  “Well, I’m almost done here!”  She started to take a step forward when a flash of blond and orange ran into and threw her to the ground.  The basket of flowers fell on top of her head.  Sakura felt her anger rise as she seethed under the woven basket.  Her eyes shifted from a pile of smashed flowers to some that landed on the bushes nearby.  She shifted and felt flowers under her bottom.  Her face turned crimson.  “NARUTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Naruto leaped over a wooden crate as he made it to the front of his destination.  His breathing was more like gasping as he tried to catch his breath.  He stared at the building that was closed down.  Naruto’s heart stopped.  It was true!  He had to know what happened.  He cupped his hands around his mouth.  “HEY!  Old man!  Why did you close shop early?”  Naruto’s stomach growled really loud as he lowered his hands.  “You can not be closed!  I was so hungry!”  Naruto whined.  He lowered his head with disappointment. A gust of wind breezed by and some leaves rolled across the dry golden sand.  Nothing could make this day any worse.  Nothing…

“N A R U T O….” A growl came from behind him.  Instantly, he knew who it was.  He slowly turned around to face the seething, reddened Sakura.  Wilted wildflowers were dangling from her.  A lot of the torn wilted flowers were tangled in her rosy hair.

“Uh… Sakura-chan… Wh-what happened to y-you…”  Naruto stuttered.  He already knew the reason though.  He vaguely remembered something about flowers attacking him on his way to the shop.

Sakura cracked her knuckles as she approached him.  “What happened to me?!?!?!?!?  WHAT HAPPENED TO ME!?!?!?!?!?!  I’ll TELL you what exactly happened to me!  A dumb idiot destroyed the flowers I was getting for Tsunade-sama’s office!!!!!”

Naruto tightened his jaw in terror as he watched Sakura approach him with her left hand cupped around her right hand.  He could hear her knuckles cracking as she approached him.  “Now…Sakura…”  He stuttered before suddenly dashing away from her.  Sakura dashed after him for a few feet until they were in a clearing.  She quickly slammed her fist onto the dry ground and it cracked under the pressure.  Naruto felt the ground vanish from under him and he fell into the crater.  Sakura ran over to where he fell and leaped into the whole.  She aimed her fist towards Naruto who jumped to the side just in time before her fist could make contact with him.  He rushed out of the crater as the ground once again crumbled under her strength.

“I’M SORRY!!!!!”  Naruto cried as he made his escape.  Tears flew from his eyes as Sakura jumped from the crater and chased him.
