(ok, I know its not July or August yet, but then my hands can't resist the fun of typing up another story and my brain can't handle long hours of revision…)

"Hey, what should we do? I'm bored." The usually hyperactive blond muttered.

"M-m-me too, N-N-Naruto-kun." The dark haired girl with white eyes agreed.

Its been a while since the village's heartthrob has returned after supposedly killing the snake sannin, though that is another story. He found out that nothing in the village has changed dramatically. Naruto is still - er - Naruto. Hinata still stutters and blush like mad. Sakura and Ino are still calling each other strange names like 'Forehead girl' and 'Ino-pig'. Kiba is still 'doggy'. Neji still very 'fateful'. Tenten still looks like a panda. Lee still wears his stretchy green suit. Shikamaru is still lazy. Chouji still eat nonstop. Shino is still quiet and mysterious as ever. 'Why am I even being so observant? Tch.' Sasuke mentally reprimanded himself for being 'observant', though having a mental battle about the advantages and disadvantages of being observant such as 'Ninjas must expect the unexpected and so being observant can help notice it in advance! CHA!' Though he doesn't know where he got the 'CHA!' expression from.

Team Gai and the rookie nine were all in an open field, bored, as Shikamaru puts it, it is too troublesome to train. All their senseis were sent on some big mission that requires all four of them in a team.

"Hn. I'm going to train." The raven haired boy said casually. On hearing that, the pink konoichi and the blonde konoichi immediately sprang up as if bursting with energy, both with stars sparkling in their eyes, so bright that Sasuke had to stagger backwards to avoid becoming blind.

"I'm coming with you too, Sasuke-kun!" Sakura and Ino both called out as he started walking away as fast as possible and as unnoticeable as possible.

'Somethings really do never change' he thought as he tried to escape his mini fangirl stampede. True, Sakura and Ino have both - lets just say - grown up, though still an active, if not then overactive, members of his fan club. 'Tch. When will they grow up? Annoying' His thoughts continued to wander. He was so caught up in his thoughts he really did not notice that he has walked really quickly and had walked in a loop, returning to where the group were and still are.

"That was very quick indeed. I will not lose to you!" Konoha's beautiful green beast, Lee, challenged, while everyone except Sasuke sweatdropped.

Dumbfounded, Sasuke lost his usual 'cool' composure and let a confused "huh!?" escape his lips. Not far behind him two konoichis were running up to him, yelling at the top of their voices "SASUKE-KUN! WAIT FOR ME!"

Sighing, Sasuke resorted to sitting down on the soft grass. This is going to be a very long 'holiday' without their senseis, and worst of all, without missions.

Meanwhile, in an unkown and secluded location…

"Green Beast, Green Beast, you hear me?"

"Yosh! Smokey! Where's Red Eyes?"

"I'm here. You there Masked Icha?"

"Hm? Oh, yes I'm here"

"Ok, lets get to work. Our mission is very simple…" Asuma began.

After a while, a small snore can be heard from the ear pieces.

"Hey, who fell asleep!" Kurenai demanded almost shouting into her walkie-talkie.

Silence. Kakashi quickly switched channel and prompted Asuma to do so.

"Asuma, I sympathise you." He whispered with a tint of amusement in his voice, before quickly changed channels again.

"GAI! YOU FELL ASLEEP!?" was all the men heard as soon as they turned back to the main channel before quickly grabbing their ears as if clinging onto something exceptionally precious. Meanwhile, Gai was sitting there behind a rock ever so peacefully, snoring away.

BONK. No response.

Poke. No response.

All three of them sighed and looked at each other, then nodded. Time for last resort. But who will do it?

OOooo! What are they gonna do?! I don't know...I'm apologise for the short chapter, but I really can't expand it further...yet.
