A/N: If you want to know what Sakura's school uniform looks like, it's this one.

I shut my eyes and mouth closed quickly and tried to forcefully move my head up, to take myself away from the water, but it's no use. Especially when I feel Karin using both of her hands to push me farther into the bucket. I started to feel the familiar ache of lack of oxygen in my chest. I needed air! I could feel my resolve slipping away, as I struggled to hold my breath. My head was pulled from the water and I gasped and sucked in air as if my life depended on it. Which it kind of was. Karin chuckled.

"Damn Sakura, the air tastes so good eh?" And then she pushed my head back in the water for the second time, the third, and then the fourth time before releasing my head.

"Fuck you all," Inner growled mentally. I was shaking in both anger and fear. Damn them. Damn them all. I can hear them all laughing and giggling as if I'm some kind of toy they were having fun with. I then looked ahead and saw my ex-friends-Mikasa, Sydney, Ami, Tayuya, and Anika, watching me and chuckling like the rest of the group. My fists clench tightly, damn those girls. Then, Ami sat on my level and poured a bottle of soda over my head.

"Hey, Ami what are you doing, that'll be sticky," Anika whispered. Karin smirked.

"How about we make her more sticky and gross eh?" She then nodded to the men and some of them moved and took things out of a big bag. One of them gave Anika eggs. The other gave Sydney a box of expired milk. Mikasa was given a large bottle of glue and Tayuya was given a large pair of scissors.

"Ino, will you do the honor?" Ino's smirk falters when she sees my hopeless expression. She looks back at Karin and Karin gives her a look. Ino takes a deep breath and the nice Ino disappears.

"Of course Karin," she says, tearing at my uniform. Buttons fly everywhere, as she rips my black jacket off. She even takes off my white blouse. I'm left in my skirt and white tank top. I scream when Sydney took the carton of milk and poured it over my chest.

"DISGUSTING, ALL YOU PEOPLE WILL PAY!" Inner shouted. She seemed to be losing her temper. All I was losing was my hope. Mikasa then stalked back over to me. She glared at me and grabbed an egg from Anika's stash. She smashes it on my forehead, giving me a slight headache.

"Hah! Everyone was right! Your forehead is like a billboard!" She exclaims. My frown turns into a downright sour look.

"Enough of this!" Karin yells as she grabs the eggs. She slams egg after egg on my head. I felt so horrible. After all the eggs were gone, Karin grabbed the big bottle of glue. She pours the whole thing on top of my head, causing me to clench my eyes shut. I feel the glue running down my back, legs, face, and arms. When the glue touches where one of the two men are grasping, he retracts his hand in disgust.

"NO! You idiot! She'll get away!" I see the chance and I take it. I sprint away, trying to see through my mass of hair, which is sticking to my face from the glue. I hear them gaining on me, but use this as motivation to go faster. I push my hair out of my eyes and see the front of the school. I feel hope bubble in the pit of my stomach. Suddenly, my foot catches on a half-buried rock. I fall flat on my face and feel an overwhelming amount of pain

I try to get back on my feet but fall back over. Am I really this weak? Tears leak from my jade eyes and make tear tracks through the glue. I start to hear their footsteps coming. I can't do it. I can't run. I'm not strong enough to get away. I lift my head when Karin's fanboys take hold of my arms and drag me back to her. She grins and grabs the scissors. My watery eyes widen when she takes hold of my hair, preparing to chop it all off.

"Hey, Ino should I just chop it all off. I mean, we'd be doing her a favor. This pink hair is so ugly!" Karin says. Ino nods her head.

"Great! Well, say goodbye to your pink hair Sakura." I guess it was ugly. Who's ever seen a person with natural pink hair before? Maybe if I dyed it brown or black I would fit in better.

Just as she brought the scissors up to my hair, someone grasped her arm harshly. I looked up to meet the person's gaze and freeze.
