Hello peoplez. Okay, before I say anything, I'd like to point out that my friend sort of convinced me to putting up this story. So if you guys don't really like it that much, then that's fine by me. At least I'll know my friends who read this story will want me to continue. Anyway, I hope you do like this story and post up as many reviews as you want. Please make sure they're good reviews 'cause I don't handle bad reviews very well. JK. I don't really care. Just send me reviews. Okay! On with the story! Oh, and just for the record, this is the first 'Naruto' story I've ever posted on here, so please don't yell at me if the characters sound OOC.
"K.C, you're friends are here," K.C's older brother, Adrian, told her, walking past her bedroom door.
"Can you get if for me, Adrian? I'm still putting the finishing touches on my costume," K.C told him, not taking her eyes off her dressing room mirror.
Adrian looked at her with a solemn look on his lightly-tanned face and leaned against her door, folding his arms across his chest. "It looks finished to me," he told her.
"No it's not! I still have to put my headband on and my ninja sandals," she told him.
Adrian rolled his dark, chocolate brown eyes. "Whatever." He walked off and went to go answer the door.
The doorbell rang once again, making Adrian jog through the hallway and down the stairs. "I'm coming! I'm coming!" he yelled, hopping off the last three steps, grasping his legs and spinning in a show-off manner as he walked towards the door. He opened it and looked at the people standing at the doorstep.
They were three girls; all K.C's friends, which he knew all too well. They were all dressed in anime costumes similar to the anime his sister watched all the time and that, was, 'Naruto'. Adrian didn't really care for the show, but he would watch it occasionally when there was nothing else to do or when it was just on and his sister was watching it.
"Oh . . . hi, Adrian," said one of K.C's friends that were standing on the left. Her name was Angel Mendoza, the shy and quiet one out of K.C's friends. Well, only when he was around her. It was obvious to Adrian—and everyone else—that Angel had a crush on him and, frankly, Adrian thought it was kind of cute. But he knew it was just a schoolgirl crush and that it'll pass sooner or later.
Angel was as tall as much as she was brave—which wasn't very much. She was a petite, little girl; about four foot eleven, this being a sophomore in high school. But, other than being a little on the short side, she was also rather pretty. Even though you couldn't see it, because of her costume, Angel had long, sort of wavy, light brown hair and sparkling light blue eyes that were covered by a wig and extremely light violet contacts.
Adrian knew the character Angel was dressed as and thought the character suited her quite nicely. It was Hyuuga Hinata, the shy and quiet one on the anime. Angel had sort of a bluish/purplish wig that was extremely short with long strands that reached her chin on the side of her face and light, violet contacts. She wore a khaki jacket with white fluff on the bottom of the jacket and her hood down, capris that were the same color as her wig with bandages and a pack tied on her right thigh, ocean blue ninja sandals, and a blue Konoha headband with a spiral-like insignia in the middle.
"Are we late for the party?" another one of K.C's friends asked. Adrian also knew who she was. Her name was Terry Gosselin, the perky, energetic one out of K.C's group of friends. Terry was one of the girls that got on Adrian's nerves because of her liveliness and happy-go-lucky personality.
"Was there ever a time where she was sad or miserable?" Adrian always thought to himself.
Not only was Terry jolly and blissful, Adrian thought she was also very pretty, this coming from a junior in high school. Terry had luminous, elbow-length blonde hair and baby blue eyes that always showed eagerness.
"No. In fact," Adrian looked at his black sports watch. "You guys are an hour early." He looked at Terry's outfit. "Nice costume."
Terry looked down at her costume and then back up at Adrian. "Oh, thanks!" she smiled jubilantly.
Adrian had to hand it to Terry; this outfit really did suit her. He knew this character as Yamanaka Ino, the girl that puts on a brave front. Unlike Angel, Terry didn't have to wear a wig or contacts since the character she was dressed as already portrayed long—even though she cut it not too long ago—blonde hair and baby blue eyes. The only thing she really had to do was put her air up in a ponytail with part of her hair hair-sprayed to stay up on the top and come down almost over her right eye. That, and put on her outfit, which were small, silver hooped earrings, a purple tang-top-like shirt with a big collar opening around her neck and three silver hooped earrings hanging on the right side of her tang-top pocket in the middle, bandages wrapped around her stomach where the tang-top revealed, white arm warmers with purple straps on the top and bottom, a knee-length, purple skirt with bandages wrapped around both of her legs, blue ninja sandals, and finally, her blue Konoha headband wrapped around her waist, which, surprised Adrian that it actually fit around her waist.
"Oh, that's good," said another one of K.C's friends who was standing on the right. "K.C told us to come an hour early so we can help out with putting up the decorations before the rest of the guest get here."
Adrian also knew this girl. Her name was Andy Hernandez, the happy—and also kind of annoying—girl out of K.C's friends. Andy wasn't the kind of annoying that Terry was, which was a perky, never frowns kind of annoying. She was more of a bossy, 'I'm the best' kind of annoying. But, what could you expect from a sophomore who was raised by a mother who was a busy film director and a father who owned his own Wal-Mart.
Andy was a girl that wasn't too tall or wasn't too short. She was an average height of five foot four in a half inches and had straight, shoulder-length brown hair and dark brown eyes that almost looked black. The outfit that she was wearing was from a character that Adrian wasn't really familiar with.
The character Andy was dressed as seemed to have an unusual hairstyle. She put her hair up in four short buns and was dyed a lighter shade of brown, making it look almost like a dirty blonde color and wore a light purple dress with long sleeves and was cut up on the top, revealing her shoulders. Underneath her buttoned up, violet dress were fishnets covering her shoulders and also fishnets covering her left thigh. She also had a red piece of cloth tied around her waist and wore her blue, Sand Village headband around her neck, which had an insignia of a gourd-like object in the middle, and of course, her ninja sandals, only these were a dark brown.
Unlike Terry and Angel, Andy was carrying something, which was, what looked like, a giant fan tied behind her back.
"Hey, guys! You're here!" K.C said, running down the stairs and towards the doorway.
"Happy Birthday, K.C!" the three girls exclaimed in a sing-song tone, handing her their gifts. K.C smiled and thanked them before she grabbed her gifts and motioned them to come in.
"So, what do we have to do, Naruto?" Terry asked cheerfully, emphasizing on 'Naruto' because of K.C's outfit.
K.C giggled. Naruto was her absolute favorite character on the anime and not just because he was the main character, but because he was such a funny, cool, and hyperactive guy. Sort of like K.C herself.
Like Angel's outfit, K.C also wore a wig that hid her extremely short, jet black hair with red streaks and contacts that hid her dark, chocolate brown eyes. The wig was a blonde color that was like Terry's hair color, but short and spiky. She also wore light blue contacts and was dressed in an orange jacket with a white collar and blue on the top of the shoulders, a blue belt, orange pants with bandages wrapped around her right thigh with a small pouch, blue ninja sandals, and of course, her blue Konoha headband tied tightly around her forehead.
K.C turned around and pointed her right index finger at her three friends. "Alright, Genin, listen up! This is a D-rank mission. Your job—may you choose to accept it—is to put up streamers and blow up balloons and help set up the tables and chairs in the backyard. Got it?"
"Got it!" They all yelled, giving K.C a soldier solute.
Adrian rolled his eyes and shook his head at how literally they were taking this act.
"This anime has really gotten to their heads," he thought to himself.
"Alright! Scatter!" K.C yelled, waving her right hand to the side while Angel, Terry, and Andy all ran in different directions through the house with their upper bodies sticking out while they ran as if they were charging after someone. Adrian thought it looked really stupid, but that was just the way ninja ran in the anime.
K.C smiled playfully while she turned to her brother. "Wasn't it awesome having a 'Naruto'-themed party?" she asked.
Adrian shrugged his shoulders as a response. "So, do you want me to help out with anything?" he asked. K.C looked up in wonder and tapped her chin with her finger.
Suddenly, banging and clashing was heard from the kitchen. Adrian and K.C both turned to see their dad dropping a whole bunch of metal pieces on the kitchen floor, cursing slightly.
K.C turned to Adrian. "How 'bout helping Dad set the grill and cook the food."
Adrian nodded his head and walked towards the kitchen to help his dad pick up all the pieces to the grill.
"And don't forget! You're making tempura, yakizakana, and yakitori with the grill. Mom's making the rest of the food that doesn't have to be grilled."
Adrian stopped in his tracks, blinking twice in confusion. "Um . . ." he turned around slowly. "I know what tempura is, but . . . what exactly is yakizakuna and yakichutori again?" he asked.
K.C rolled her eyes. "Its yakizakana and yakitori," she told him. "Yakizakana is basically just grilled fish and yakitori is grilled chicken pieces on skewers. Duh!"
Adrian gave his little sister a small glare. "Well excuse me for not being so familiar with Japanese foods."
"K.C!" K.C's mother called out, rushing towards her with at least four pots stacked together in her hands. "I'm finished making the ramen," she told her.
"Alright!" K.C smiled, smacking her lips. This was another reason why K.C loved the character, Naruto. Both he and she were ramen fanatics and K.C practically ate ramen every day. "Did you make Shio ramen?"
K.C's mother nodded her head.
"Tonkotsu ramen?"
"Yep."
"Tantanmen ramen?"
"Mmhmm."
"And Aburasoba ramen?"
"Got it."
"Cool!" she got a hold of two pots. "I'll help you put them out in the backyard.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang once more, making everyone hear it throughout the house.
"Oh, crap." K.C swore. "Can someone get the door!"
"I got it!" Terry yelled buoyantly as she got up from the living room floor with a red balloon in her hand and ran towards the door. She opened it and saw two boys standing at the door.
"Hey guys!" Terry smiled, giving the two boys a wave.
"Hey, Terry," said the boy standing on the right. "Where's K.C?"
"Right here!" K.C said, running towards the door. "Hey, Matt. Hey, Danny."
"Hey, Naruto," said the guy on the left, known as Danny.
"Happy Sixteenth Birthday." Matt greeted, handing K.C her gift.
Matt Nicoletti and Danny Helvetius were two of K.C's guy friends. Matt was the tall, sort of muscular jock type that was on the basketball, baseball, and tennis team. How he kept up with all these sports, she'll never know. Danny, on the other hand, was the prankster and class clown out of K.C's group of friends. Unlike Matt, he was a little on the short side—a five foot three in a half inched sophomore—and wasn't that muscular, but could still bench-press about one hundred and two pounds when necessary.
Matt had chin-length, dirt brown hair that he always spiked and deep, hazel eyes. Like all of his friends knew, Matt had an obsession with Hatake Kakashi and of course, came to the party dressed as him. He even spray-dyed his hair a neat, silver color and made it sway to the side.
As for his outfit, he wore a light green, zipped up vest with many pockets in front. Underneath, he wore a navy blue jumpsuit with the long sleeves rolled up a little and navy blue gloves showing his fingers with a metal rectangle on the top. He also wore bandages wrapped around his right thigh with a kunai pouch tied to it, bandages wrapped around his revealing ankles, ninja sandals the same color as his jumpsuit, a navy blue mask covering his mouth and nose, and of course, his Konoha headband tied around his forehead, but slanted to cover his left eye.
Danny portrayed chin-length, dark brown hair that he always spiked like Matt and light brown eyes. Like Matt, he also had an obsession with a character on 'Naruto', but it wasn't Kakashi. It was Umino Iruka, and was dressed like him for the party.
Since Danny already had long, dark brown hair, he had no trouble with imitating Iruka's hairstyle, which all he had to do was put up in a ponytail. He even painted a scar across his nose to look more like Iruka.
His outfit, was also similar to Matt's, which was a light green vest with many pockets on the front, a navy blue jumpsuit underneath with the long sleeves rolled up a little, bandages wrapped around his right thigh,—but no kunai pouch—bandages wrapped around his ankles, navy blue ninja sandals, and of course, his Konoha headband wrapped around his forehead.
"You're just in time to help out with the decorations!" Terry smiled, letting go of the balloon she was blowing up and letting the air inside blow in Matt and Danny's faces.
Matt and Danny glared at Terry in annoyance while Terry gave them a sympathetic look and ran off to the living room to finish up with the balloons.
"Alright, guys. You can go help Adrian and my dad set up the grill and also help out with the cooking." K.C instructed.
"Sweet! What are we having?" Danny asked, rubbing his hands together as they walked inside the house.
"My dad's cooking tempura, yakitori, and yakizakana and my mom just made Shio, Tonkotsu, Tantanmen, and Aburasoba ramen," she told them. "She's also making rice balls, Domburi, Onigiri, Sashimi, and my cousin, Chris, is bringing Gyoza."
Matt pumped his fist in the air. "Wooh! We are going to eat well to-day!"
"K.C! Could you go get the door?" K.C's mother called out, setting up the stereo outside with Matt and Adrian's help.
"Remember to keep the speakers away from the food table." Andy warned. "We wouldn't want anything to fall on them and end up having an electrical problem."
"We got it, Andy." Matt grumbled from her giving them orders.
Andy just shrugged her shoulders. "Just doing my part to help out K.C with her party. You know how good I am at being in charge."
"Yeah, and also being a pain in the ass," Danny whispered to Matt. Matt chuckled.
"What was that?" Andy asked Danny, placing her hands on her hips.
"Uh, nothing."
K.C ran to the door and opened it, being greeted by her cousin, Chris Coulourious.
"Chris! You're here!" K.C said, giving him a hug. She looked at his costume. "Or should I say, Gaara of the Desert."
Chris was K.C's younger-by-three-months-but-still-four-inches-taller cousin. Everyone said him and K.C looked similar to one another and looked more like brother and sister instead of cousins. Like K.C, Chris also had jet black hair that was rather short and spiky—but didn't have red streaks and small chunks on the side of his face—and dark, chocolate brown eyes that seemed to twinkle every time he smiled. That was another thing him and K.C both had; a picture perfect smile that would brighten up anyone's day and would make even the bright, luminous sun jealous.
Chris also loved watching 'Naruto'. His favorite character from the anime was Gaara, which was the character he was dressed as.
Like Matt, he spray-dyed his hair a maroon color, painted a red Japanese symbol for the world 'love' on the left side of his forehead, and, get this, even put black eyeliner on, which, actually made him look kind of cool.
His outfit, was a black jumpsuit with short sleeves and a fishnet shirt underneath that revealed its short sleeves, a white piece of cloth tied around his waist and up his right shoulder, a brown strap strapped around his left shoulder that would hold a gourd that Gaara carried, but, sadly, Chris did not have this, dark brown ninja sandals, bandages wrapped around his right foot and ankles, and his blue Sand Village headband wrapped around his brown strap.
"Here, I brought the Gyoza," he said, handing her a large glass container with at least four dozen fried dumplings with minced vegetables and ground meat in them, all placed in nice, straight rows.
"Cool!" K.C said, grabbing the glass container. She looked up at Chris. "Bring me anything else?" she asked with a smile.
Chris looked up in wonder, tapping his chin in thought. He did this to tease her. "Hmm. Let me think. Did I bring anything else?"
He smiled. "Oh, yeah! I brought the family," he said as five little kids from ages ten to three rushed into the house. These, were Chris's little brothers and sisters: Carel, Darby, Francisco, Deron, and Chico.
"Hey there, Birthday Girl!" Chris's mother and also K.C's aunt, Meredith, greeted cheerfully, embracing K.C in a tight hug and smothering her with kisses and lipstick marks on her face. Chris, found this amusing while K.C didn't and glared at him.
"Hey! There's the teenager!" Chris's father and also K.C's uncle, Martin, greeted happily, ruffling K.C's blonde, spiky wig, making it slide off.
"Uncle Martin, you're making my wig fall off," she told him.
"Honestly, K.C, I don't see why you insist on dressing up as a boy. Its bad enough you dress like one at school and around the house, but to dress as one at your own party. That's just simply embarrassing," K.C's aunt told her. "Wouldn't you rather like to wear a beautiful party dress and wear pretty make-up and have your hair done by a hairstylist?"
Chris chuckled. "K.C? In a dress and make-up? Come on, Mom. You've known K.C since she was in diapers. You should know that she hates wearing that kind of stuff."
Meredith sighed in disappointment. "You looked a lot cutier back when you were five. Before you got into this tomboy stuff."
"Sorry, Aunt Meredith. It's just the way I am," K.C told her, fixing her wig.
Meredith and Martin both left K.C and walked into the backyard with K.C's mom and dad while K.C looked back at Chris.
"So, that's all you brought?" she asked in disappointment.
Chris smiled at her and revealed what he was holding in his right hand, which K.C just noticed he hid behind his back.
"Maybe," he said in a sing-song tone as he revealed a rather small, neatly wrapped present in his hand.
"I knew it!" she exclaimed, grabbing the present. "What is it?"
"Can't tell you."
"Oh, come on. Just a hint. Please!" K.C begged, looking up at Chris with her chocolate brown eyes.
"Chris! What's up?" Adrian interrupted, walking towards K.C and Chris with charcoal all over his hands and, get this, a pink, frilly apron that said 'Kiss the Cook' in red letters in the middle.
"Hey, what's up, Adrian?" Chris said, giving his older cousin a high-five.
Adrian looked at Chris's dyed hair and held back a giggle. "Nice hair."
Chris glared and looked at Adrian's apron. "Nice apron." He laughed.
Adrian looked down at the apron and turned a bright pink. "Hey! My mom made me wear this apron! She told me she didn't want me to get my shirt all covered in charcoal from the grill. Do you have any idea how dirty you get just from cleaning that thing?" he asked.
"Whatever, dude," Chris told him.
"K.C, there are more people at your door," Angel told her in a polite manner.
"Alright. Thanks, Angel," K.C said as her and Angel walked out of the backyard and into the house. They passed the kitchen, which was starting to smell more and more like cooked meat and vegetables and through the living room until they finally reached the door. They opened it and were greeted by two more of K.C's friends.
"Happy Birthday!" the boy and girl both screamed jubilantly.
"Hey, guys." K.C waved, grabbing her gifts while she invited her friends in, Angel helping her out with her gifts.
"Mmm! Your house smells freakin' awesome, K.C!" the boy, Max Kaufmann, exclaimed.
Max was the tough/wild person out of K.C's friends. He was sort of on the short side, about five foot four, and had extremely short, brown hair that he couldn't even spike and fiery eyes that were an odd shade of brown, making them look red in the right sunlight. The character he was dressed as really fit his personality.
Max was dressed as Inuzuka Kiba, the wild character on 'Naruto'. He had red upside-down triangles which were to be fangs painted on his cheeks and wore sort of a tin colored sweater with fake, dark brown fur on the end of the hood and the end of the long sleeves, sort of gray/khaki brown pants with bandages wrapped around his right thigh and a kunai pouch attached, blue ninja sandals, and his Konoha headband tied around his forehead. He even carried a stuffed Akamaru plushy—Kiba's pet dog—inside his jacket with its head poking out.
"I like your stuffed Akamaru plushy, Kiba," Angel said, chuckling.
"Thanks, Hinata." Max laughed.
"Ah, man. You were serious when you said you were going to wear that costume, Erin?" K.C complained.
Erin Hannigan was the oldest out of K.C's group of friends but the third shortest. She had chin-length, auburn hair that she always put in pigtails and dark brown eyes. Even though she was the oldest out of the group, some people mistook her as a freshman because of her size.
Like practically every single girl character on the anime, Erin had an obsession with the 'all powerful' Uchiha Sasuke and—what a surprise!—was dressed as him.
Erin put her hair down and spiked the back of it, brushing her bangs to the sides so that they were hanging on the side of her cheeks and wore blood red contacts with three black circles in the pattern of that sign you see on 'The Omen'.
Her outfit was a blue shirt with a big collar opening and short sleeves, arm warmers with blue straps on the top and bottom, white shorts that reached the top of her knees, bandages wrapped around her right thigh with a kunai pack attached to it, bandages wrapped around her legs with blue straps on the top and bottom, blue ninja sandals, and a blue Konoha headband tied around her forehead.
Andy rushed into the living room and called out for K.C until she noticed Max and Erin arrived.
"Oh, hi guys!" she waved. She looked at Erin's red contacts. Her eyes grew an inch wider.
"WOAH!" she cried in amazement, poking at the bottom of Erin's right eye. "Are those real?"
Erin slapped her hand. "Of coarse they're not real. They're contacts."
"THOSE LOOK SO COOL!" she screamed. "Did they have any with the Byakugan?" she asked.
"How the hell should I know? I just went looking for the Sharingan ones."
"This is cool," Angel said in her quiet, sweet voice. "We have a Kakashi, a Naruto, and a Sasuke at this party. All we need is someone dressed as Haruno Sakura and we'll have the whole team seven group."
"I'd rather have a Sakura than a Sasuke at this party," K.C grumbled.
Andy gasped. "K.C! That was so mean!"
"What?" K.C exclaimed. "You know how much I hate Sasu-gay."
"Hey! Don't make fun of Sasuke-kun!" Erin yelled.
"What do you have against him anyway, K.C? Sasuke's cool," Max told her.
K.C gagged. "He's just too . . . perfect. And if he's not in every single episode, he's talked about in every single episode. Sasuke this, and Sasuke that. Blah, blah, blah."
"Oh, you're just jealous 'cause Sasuke-kun's so much better than Naruto," Erin told her, folding her arms across her chest.
K.C gasped and slapped her hands over her ears. "La, la, la, la, la! I didn't hear that! La, la, la, la!"
"Oh, don't be such a baby, K.C, and let's go eat. You're mom's done with all the dishes," Andy told her.
"Alright! Food!" Max yelled, running outside.
"Hey! Slow down Chouji!" K.C called out, giggling while Max turned back and glared at her.
"Oh, sweet! 'Naruto' trading cards!" K.C exclaimed, holding the box of cards in her hands. She turned to Angel. "Thanks, Hinata."
"You're welcome, Naruto-kun." Angel teased while everyone one of K.C's friends went 'aww'.
"What the heck does 'kun', mean?" one of K.C's aunts asked.
K.C shrugged her shoulders. "It's just something the Japanese say," she told him.
Her family members that weren't really familiar with anime looked at her with confused looks on their faces.
"Open mine next, K.C! Open mine next!" Terry exclaimed, grabbing her gift and handing it to K.C.
"Alright, alright," K.C said, grabbing Terry's gift wrapped in shiny blue wrapping paper. She tore off the wrapping paper and looked down at her present, which was a large cardboard box. She opened up the small box and saw a soft blanket with Kakashi using his Chidori attack.
"Whoa!" Matt cried while K.C held it up for everyone to see. He turned to Terry. "How come you never got me a Kakashi blanket for my birthday?" he asked.
Terry just shrugged her shoulders.
"Alright, I think those are all the presents," K.C's dad told her.
"Wait, what about Chris's present?" Meredith asked, looking at her son.
"I'll give it to her later, Mom. It's kind of a surprise," he told her, looking at K.C and smiling. K.C cocked her eyebrow but then just shrugged her shoulders, thinking on what her cousin could have in store for her.
"How ya doing everybody? Life treating you good?"
Everyone screamed and started laughing at Might Gai—Rock Lee, Neiji, and TenTen's sensei—standing in a 'lovely' pose with his hip swaying to the right and his fingers forming a circle around his left eye.
"Holy crap! It's Gay-sensei!" Max screamed, pointing his right index finger at Might Gai.
"Move out of the way, Kiba. I can't see," Chris said, throwing his empty Coca-Cola can at Max. Max turned and glared slightly at Chris before he sat back down.
"So, Gaara, what did you get Naruto for her birthday?" Matt asked, shoving another piece of sashimi in his mouth.
"Yeah, let's see what it is." Andy shoved his right shoulder playfully.
"Hold on. Wait until this goes to commercial," Chris told them.
"It only gets worse from here on end."
"Naruto will be back in a minute!" said the announcer.
"Hey! It's Harry Potter!" Terry yelled, pointing at the TV screen, referring to Yakushi Kabuto.
"Whaaat?" Danny emphasized.
"Kabuto looks nothing like Harry Potter, Ino," Erin told her.
"Yeah he does!" Terry told her, jumping up and down from the amount of sugar she engulged. "He's got glasses and the hairstyle sort of looks the same. Except for the ponytail. But, other than that, just dye it dark brown and viola! You've got a japanese Harry Potter!"
Everyone looked at her with blank looks on their faces and blinked twice in misinterpret.
"Someone's gotta stop giving her sugar," Adrian whispered to Danny. Danny nodded his head in agreement.
"Alright, Chris. Let's see what you got your cousin," Erin told him while everyone turned their attention back to Chris.
"Fine. But don't make fun of me because of the cheesiness." He warned.
"Whatever, just let me open it!" K.C told him.
Chris reached into his pocket and got the small package out, handing it to K.C. "Happy Birthday, Naruto," he told her.
"Thank you, Gaara." K.C grabbed the package and began to tear off the bright red wrapping paper. When all of it was off, K.C held in her hands a small, cardboard box. She ripped off the tape and opened up the box to see a small tube of what looked like glitter.
"Oh, Chris. You didn't!" K.C said happily as she took out the thin tube of glitter.
"What is it?" Angel asked.
"It looks like glitter," Terry said, still jumping up and down. "But I thought you hated glitter, Naruto."
"It's not glitter, you guys," K.C told them.
"It's not?" Danny raised his eyebrow.
"Then what is it?" Angel asked.
"It's wishing dust," Chris told them.
"Whaaaaaaat?" everyone emphasized in bewilderment.
"I thought you guys stopped buying that stuff years ago," Adrian told them.
"We did," said K.C. "But we still get it for each other on special days." She turned to Chris. "Thanks, Gaara!"
Chris smiled and shrugged his shoulders, his way of saying, 'no problem', while K.C embraced him in a warm, friendly hug.
"Aww. Naruto hugging Gaara. OMG! THAT'S UBER CUTE!" Terry yelled, jumping up and down and clapping her hands.
Everyone just looked at her as if she were crazy and went back to eating and watching the rest of 'Naruto'.
"Ooh! Wish for a bottomless pool of chocolate pudding! Wish for a bottomless pool of chocolate pudding!" Terry yelled, jumping up and down irascibly.
"Terry! I'm not going to wish for a bottomless pool of chocolate pudding!" K.C yelled making Terry go down on her knees as if she became even smaller and shivered frightfully like a baby lamb.
"How 'bout wishing that there'd be no more adults in this world!" Max suggested.
Erin looked at him as if he were joking. "Come on, Max. We all know how that worked out for Jimmy Neutron." She turned to K.C. "How 'bout wishing for a Lamborghini? Now that you're sixteen, you wouldn't have to wait that long to drive it."
Adrian rolled his eyes. "This is stupid. Why are we suggesting wishes for K.C if we're just using stupid glitter?" he asked.
"Oh, come on, Adrian," said K.C. "Yeah, we know it's just dumb old glitter, but it's still fun to make a wish and hope that it'll some day come true."
"Whatever. I'm going to bed," he said, walking back inside the house. "Goodnight!"
"G-goodnight, Adrian," Angel said, twiddling her fingers in a Hinata-like manner.
"Well, I know one thing I'd wish for," Chris said.
"What's that?" Erin asked.
"I'd wish that my favorite 'Naruto' characters would come to life," he told them.
"Ooh! That's even better than a bottomless pool of chocolate pudding!" Terry bounced up and down. "Well, not really. But it's still cool!"
"Yeah! That'd totally be an awesome wish," said Matt. "I'd definitely wish for Kakashi to be real and have him teach me all his kick ass moves." He did a high kick and a punch.
"Forget Kakashi. I'd wish for Sakura, TenTen, Ino, and Hinata to come to life!" Danny said with a pervy smile on his face. "And Iruka, of course." He shrugged his shoulders
"Okay, Jiraiya!" Andy teased. "I'd wish for Neiji to be real. He seems like a guy that really knows how to take charge and give off orders. Plus he's super hot!" she said, clasping her hands together and swinging back and forth.
"Yeah. You two are the perfect match." Chris joked. "You guys are both a pain in the ass."
"Sasuke-kun, no doubt. He's the only guy on 'Naruto' I'd wish would become real," Erin said, clasping her hands together and closing her eyes.
Everyone rolled their eyes.
"I'd totally wish for Kiba to be real. That guy's the total bad ass from the anime!" Max exclaimed clenching his right fist in front of his face.
"What about you, Angel?" Andy asked. "Who'd you wish to come to life from 'Naruto'?"
Angel thought about it. "Well, I'd really like for Rock Lee to come to life. He's a guy that never gives up and isn't really afraid of anything. He could teach me how to be more assertive and brave. And Shikamaru is really smart. He could also help me by teaching me a ton of things like stuff I'm not really good at in school."
"And we'd all know the characters K.C and Chris would wish for," Danny said, looking up at K.C and Chris.
"Hey, Naruto and Gaara are kick ass characters," K.C told them.
"Yeah. You guys didn't make fun of Matt or Erin when they said they would want to wish for Kakashi and Sasuke to be real," said Chris.
"I'd wish for Gai-sensei, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru to be real!" Terry cried out of nowhere.
An awkward silence fell upon the group of teens for about five seconds until Andy screamed, "WHO IN THE HELL WOULD WISH FOR THEM TO BE REAL!"
Terry glared at her. "Hey! Gai-sensei is really funny at times. And so youthful! Jiraiya seems like he writes really interesting books, even if they're porn. And who wouldn't want to wish for Orochimaru to be real? That guy is uber smexy!" she screamed happily.
Everyone backed away from Terry.
"Alright, K.C. Fire up the wishing dust and let's get this thing started!" Andy ordered.
"Okay," K.C said, popping the cap off the tube and pouring the wishing dust out. She then walked towards her friends and poured a little in their hands. "Alright, I wish that Naruto," she started off.
"Gaara," said Chris.
"Kiba!" Max exclaimed.
"Sasuke-kun!" Erin cheered.
"Kakashi," said Matt.
"Iruka, Sakura, Hinata, Ino, and TenTen," informed Danny.
"Rock Lee and Shikamaru," Angel said in her usual quiet tone.
"Neiji," said Andy.
"And Might Gai, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru!" Terry exclaimed excitedly.
"would leave the anime world and come to life here in our world." K.C finished off as her and her friends all threw their wishing dust high in the air and watched it fall to the grass ground, making the dark sky sparkle like the luminous, full moon as it fell.
"What is this! Where the hell are we! WHAT'S GOING OOOOOOOONNNNNNNNN!"
THWAK!
"Ow! What was that for, Sakura-chan?"
"Shut up, Naruto! Can't you see it's still early in the morning here. These people are still asleep."
"She's right, Naruto. Please keep it down."
"Oh, alright, Iruka-sensei."
"Geeze. This is so troublesome. Why don't we just wake someone up and ask them where the hell we are."
"We can't do that, Shikamaru."
"Why not?"
"Because, what if we're at a place with bad people?"
"I don't care if we're in enemy territory! I'm waking someone up and getting me some answers!"
"Bark! Bark!"
"K-Kiba . . . d-don't do that. I mean, that would be rather rude. What if—what if nice people live here? We wouldn't want to treat them badly."
"Hinata's right! This place could be filled with youthful people! We should be kind and courteous to them no matter what! Right, Lee?"
"Right, Gai-sensei!"
"Lee!"
"Sensei!"
"Lee!"
"Sensei!"
K.C grumbled tiredly, turning to lie on her left shoulder. "Who the hell turned the TV on?" she groaned.
Chris yawned, lying next to K.C on the living room floor. "It was probably Terry." He lifted his head but kept his eyes shut. "Terry! Turn the TV off, it's not even sunrise yet!"
Terry snored peacefully on the living room couch with a blanket wrapped around her body to keep her warm. Chris noticed this and got up from the floor, opening up his eyes in bewilderment.
"Terry?" he repeated, making sure she was asleep.
"My hotdog! Not yours!" Terry yelled, shifting to her right. Chris cocked his eyebrow and looked behind him.
Matt was fast asleep in the ocean blue sleeping bag he brought with him. Danny was snoring away on his back. Next to him was Max sleeping soundly with his arms and legs in the air like a dog sleeping on its back.
Chris then turned around and looked over on K.C's side, watching Angel snore quietly next to K.C in her purple sleeping bag, Andy sleeping on the right arm of the rocking chair in the room with a fluffy, black and white blanket, and Erin was sleeping on the small couch in front of him.
"Hey there."
Chris quickly looked up from Erin's couch and saw a group of people standing behind it. A big group of people.
"Hello little boy. Sleep well?" a creepy-sounding man asked.
Chris's dark, chocolate brown eyes grew almost an inch wider, his mouth feeling like it just dropped straight to the floor in total shock.
"See what you did, Orochimaru! You scared him," said the old man with long, white hair in a ponytail.
"Um, are you okay, kid?" One of the adults asked, raising their only revealing eye.
Chris rubbed his eyes and shook his head a couple of time. "I still must be asleep," he said, smacking his head a couple of times before he looked back up behind the couch Erin was sleeping on.
"Nope. That ain't gonna make us go away, kid," said one of the boys with long, brown hair tied in a ponytail.
Chris's body began to shake in fear as he sat their in shock.
"I'm trippin'," he said. "I'm totally trippin'."
"What are you talking about? You're not even standing up," said the red-haired boy in a calm tone.
Chris reached out to K.C, not taking his eyes off the group of people and shook her right shoulder. "K-K.C." his voice shook. "K.C, wake up."
K.C groaned, lifting her head and turning to see Chris with her eyes half way open. "What is it, Chris?" she asked. "It's not time to get ready for school already, is it?"
Chris ignored her. "K.C. Let me know if I'm going crazy, but do you see the characters from 'Naruto' standing behind the couch Erin's lying on?" he asked, pointing at the group of people.
"Hey! How do you know my name, punk?" the kid with blonde, spiky hair asked, pointing an accusing finger at Chris.
That's, when K.C's eyes shot open. She turned to look at Chris, who was still looking up at the group of people, making K.C look where he was looking. Her eyes grew a fraction of an inch wider and her mouth was open big enough to shove at least three Oreo cookies stacked together inside.
"Oh . . . my . . . GOD!"
"So I'm not trippin', am I?" said Chris.
K.C shook her head back and forth. "Not unless we're both trippin'."
The boy with black, spiky hair looked at Chris and K.C with an impatient look on his light-skinned face. "Look, we don't have all day, so can you please tell us where the hell we are?" he asked rudely.
"Sasuke! Do not be so rude to these nice people!" said the boy with a weird, bowl shaped hairstyle.
"Don't jump to conclusions, Lee," said the girl with brown hair up in two buns. "We're still not sure whether these guys are the enemy or if they're just plain old people."
The boy with sharp fang-like teeth pointed an accusing finger at Chris and K.C. "Hey! Maybe they were the ones that brought us here!"
The white-furred dog inside the boy's jacket barked three times.
"Alright! What kind of jutsu is this! What kind of ninja are you?" the blonde boy yelled.
" . . . . . "
"YOU GUYS! WAAAAAKKKKKKE UUUUUUUUUUUUP!"
Geeze, that took forever to review. Well, I hope you liked the first (and super long) chapter of my story. Don't forget to leave plenty of reviews and if you want me to continue, just say so. Alright, see ya!
