Tsukiko: This is... a very random InoShikaTema fic XP Actually this was going to be a ShikaTema fic, but I'm a bigger fan of ShikaIno (I'm a fan of both, though) so I wanted it to become a InoShikaTema fic! Dedicated to a very good friend who knows me best of all my male friends ;D
Warning: Major randomness, maybe some OOCness and... um... well, it's mainly the randomness you should be warned about XD; Thou hast been warneth.
I Had A Dream About You Last Night
Temari was one of those girls who were, well, cool. Most kunoichis were cool, but most girls got a bit giggly or violent once in a while. Sure, Temari could be violent, but that was mostly during battles and she was very... mature.
But sometimes, all coolness is just blown away when you get to find some earthshattering news.
"I said what?"
"Well, Temari, you don't need to be so upset about it, I mean, it's just a little play -"
"You said what?"
"C'mon, it can't be that bad, it isn't Romeo and Juliet or something -"
"He said what?"
"He said it was just a little play and that you had the -"
"She said what?"
"The Hokage-sama said that you might want to -"
"They said what?"
Kankorou sighed. "Temari, don't be so stubborn about it. It's just one measly play, okay?"
"One measly play?" Temari shrieked at him. "You call A Midsummer's Night one measly play? And like it wasn't enough I had to be the main actress, he is supposed to act my... my... my crush!"
She pointed furiously at a black-haired boy who was leaning back on a bench with a sigh.
"How troublesome", he muttered.
"Troublesome? You call me troublesome?" Temari gave him an aggravated death glare.
Kankorou sweatdropped. "Temari..."
Temari gave him a menacing death glare. "What did you say, Kankorou?"
"Er... nothing."
"Good. Because I thought I heard you say something."
Kankorou and Shikamaru exchanged glances and sighed.
"Hokage-sama, is there any way we could, err, change the play?" Kankorou asked as he watched the blonde fifty-year-old woman nervously.
"I'm sorry, Kankorou, but we can't, we must follow the original script." Tsunade sighed and ate an odango.
"Please tell us why we're forced to participate in a stupid romantic play," Temari demanded to know abruptly, and Kankorou elbowed her. Normally it was the other way around, and Temari knew it, so she gave him another death glare that made Kankorou shiver. Good thing she wasn't having PMS, or else he'd be dead by now.
Tsunade eyed them amusedly and then sighed. "Well, there's an international war going on right now, between the Fire Country and the Water Country. We want them to help us to get rid of Orochimaru, but they're unsure who they'll side with, or if they'll side with anyone at all. However, the ruler of the Water Country is particularly fond of Shakespeare, and agreed to side with us if we did the play 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'."
"And why can't anyone else play Helena?" Temari furrowed her eyebrows angrily. "I don't want to play HIS admirer!" She pointed once again accusingly at Shikamaru, who sighed once more.
"How troublesome."
Temari practically sent electric waves of hatred his way. "What... did... you... say...?"
"Nothing," Shikamaru sighed once more.
"We lack actors. We've heard you're a good actress, and that's why we contacted Kazekage-sama," Tsunade explained.
"Kazekage-sama? You mean Gaara?" Temari spluttered out.
"Yes, and he agreed to have you act as Helena."
Temari clenched her fist. "Oh, he's so dead... he'll be sooo dead when I come home..."
Kankorou felt very sorry for his little brother then. Poor Gaara... I wouldn't want to experience Temari's wrath... like I haven't already...
"Who else is in the cast?" Temari wanted to know.
"You'll find out tomorrow," Tsunade smiled mischievously. Temari looked as though she'd explode, Shikamaru looked lazily at Tsunade with a look of dislike, Kankorou glanced anxiously at Temari, but Tsunade herself just smirked. She could hardly wait to see their faces tomorrow...
Tsukiko: And FINALLY the prologue is done! I don't know when the first chapter will be written but hopefully it'll be published next week... until then, ja ne! ;D And please leave a review!
