"Well, we're done here with the Red Carpet, so let's get started!" says a blonde kunoichi wearing a flowing violet dress. The two hosts of the Naruto Dattebayo Awards stood in the middle of the deserted red carpet waiting for more guests to arrive; but it seems like everybody was already inside.
But not everybody was inside. There was still the infamous Team Taka; headed by Sasuke Uchiha; that have not yet arrived.
"Sasuke and his comrades are not yet here. Should we keep waiting for them?" asks the boy in the tailored green suit next to her.
The girl beside him yawned. "I'm heading for the auditorium. You can wait for them as long as you like." she began her walk back to the auditorium.
"Omachikudasai!*" the boy ran to her, knowing the people watching the awards straight from their TV sets clearly saw what happened.
The auditorium was filled with various characters from Naruto. People from every country were seated together. Part I or Part II or even appearing in both, old or young, important or... let's just say everyone's important, and even the evil ones and the dead were there. People were either talking in groups or badmouthing someone else present, for almost everyone could find another person they disliked in the room. Most certainly Pain. He was there too, albeit tied to a post.
Let's just say everyone; save for Sasuke and the rest of Taka; were there. There were enough people that it can fill a whole city. Luckily, there were more than enough seats for everyone.
Suddenly the lights grew dim and the chatter stopped as the curtains on the stage drew back to reveal a podium. Even Konohamaru stopped talking to Nawaki, as he was sure of himself to get an award.
As everyone watched, a teenage boy and a blonde girl walked out from backstage. They each held a microphone in their hands and the boy was also holding a sheet of paper. He stepped in front of the podium and lifted up his mike.
"Konnichiwa ladies and gentleguys and OOOH SAKURA-CHAN! ((this earns a punch from Ino)) and welcome to the Naruto Dattebayo Awards! I'm Rock Lee and this is Yamanaka Ino. We'll be your hosts for the event as well as your entertainers to keep things interesting during the whole awarding process! So without further ado, I present -"
He was cut off by the blonde girl. "Shut it. It's my turn to talk. Sorry Mr. Bushy Brows, but I'll be taking it from here." As her fellow host shot her a glare she couldn't see, she stepped in front of him.
"The rules are simple. Voting will be open from the moment we announce the category and will close the vote 24 hours later. How to vote? Vote through the review box! So remember people, your votes are what keeps this show going. If you don't want to see a hiatus you'd better start voting like your life depends on it! And relax, this is not a death threat. Back to you, Bushy."
"Uhh.. thanks for the nickname." Lee said sarcastically. "So... yeah. The first category IS… (pause for dramatic effect) 'Favorite Episode'! Voters will choose from the all the episodes in the series, excluding OVA, pilot episodes, movies and the like. Voting begins right this moment, and in 24 hours' time we will announce the winning episode!"
"You mean IF there is a winning episode already. I'm not putting too much hope on this."
"Aren't you a sweet flower, eh Miss Yamanaka?" Lee asked her, looking at her cleavage, which earned him a good hit near the eye from Ino.
"Can it, Lee. Did someone have the guts to teach him all this?" All eyes were trained on Jiraiya, who kept on shaking his head.
Ino rolled her eyes, cleared her voice, and continued. "Anyways, the winning episode will be represented by a character who first appeared in the episode, or to whom the episode has some significance. The character will be invited on stage to receive the trophy and say a few words". She took out a golden trophy in the shape of Pakkun, which earned a few stares on a shocked Pakkun himself. The only difference, other than the size of the figure, was that the Konohagakure symbol on his forehead protector had been changed to the engravement of the Naruto logo. Ino set down the trophy on the podium. "The character then gets to keep the trophy. It makes a good paperweight, I've tried it out."
Lee stared at the trophy. "Hey, why is it in the shape of Pakkun? Why can't it be in the shape of me or something? That way it'll look way cooler."
"Gee, Lee, I don't know. Maybe it's because you didn't like the idea of you doing the Harem Jutsu" then she turned to the audience and whispered. "Trust me, you won't like it either."
"Okay, fine, I get your point."
"Glad that you did, Baka." Ino turned back towards the audience. "So, people, start voting right now! We'll be giving out the award when the winner comes out, so until then it's sayonara for now! Ino and Lee signing out!" She then dragged a protesting Lee backstage with her, ignoring his cries of "Why is it your name first? Why isn't it mine? Doesn't 'Lee and Ino' sound better?"
"Shut it, baka, or I'm kicking you off the show and putting Pain in your place!"
The bush-browed boy fell silent, and the curtains fell on the stage.
This is NOT an excuse to get you guys to review. I basically don't want to cause any trouble with polls as, at times, there are too many please, VOTE!
Well, you heard Ino, start voting now! I'll be checking the results in 24 hours' time, so until then keep those votes coming! Suggestions for categories are welcome as well! Remember, folks, this whole show depends on your votes, so keep voting to keep this show alive! Thanks!
*- please wait!
Disclaimer: Shizuneeee does not own anything except for the Naruto Dattebayo Awards and the 'Golden Pakkun' trophies, which took forever to make. You try carving Pakkun on a mini-sized mould, not to mention burning the molten gold and the rejected trophies with the genderbent Lee carved on them.
