----------------------------------------------------

Me: Hi! I'm wolfdogb296, but my other penname is Haikura Natsuki. So you can call me Kura! Today, I've managed to drag in Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, and my new character, Akane Katara!

The three stand there silently, even Naruto.

Me: Hey! Show some enthusiasm people!

Sasuke: Hpmh, like we would! Just let us go, this is getting annoying and stupid.

Me: (eyes glitter dangerously) You wanna say that again.

Sasuke: I said…

Katara: Sasuke, Kura was threatening you.

Sasuke: I know and I don't damn car…(Gets hit in the head with a thick book) What the hell! You…(Gets hit in the head again).

Me: (smugly) Mists of Avalon, 984 pages, and 4.67 pounds. There is no swearing here.

Naruto: (snicker) Stupid Sasuk-teme…(Gets hit in the head)

Me: (Yells) What did I just say!

Naruto: (rubbing his head, muttering) Sorry, ma'am.

Me: Good. Now let begin the story!

-------------------------------------------

Katara slowly stumbled home from a day of training. The 15 year old was exhausted and almost half asleep.

Katara was an experienced chounin of Konohana who lived alone in an apartment near the training fields. She was an outcast of her clan and her family was dead. She was pretty tall with waist length sky blue hair and light jade green eyes. Her hair was loose except for a strip of dark blue and white cloth with triangular pattern that acted like a hair band and kept most of her hair out of her face. She wore a loose onyx blue shirt with flowing sleeves that draped loosely around her upper body, hiding her weapon set and making her hand movements nearly unpredictable. Suddenly she heard someone shout her name behind her. She turned around to find Kokori, one of her team members running up to her. But as she ran near, she seemed to slow down, almost nervously in front of her, yet she was excited about something.

Kokori: (panting slightly) Katara, Katara! Guess what?! (Jumps up and down a little in excitement)

Katara: (narrows eyes) This is not going to be good for me, is it. (More statement than question)

Kokori: (Somehow nervous yet excited) You see, the whole team been worried about you lately because you seem so serious and glum lately, so I set up a blind date. It's so blind, I don't even know who it is!

Katara: (eye twitches) I have two things to say to you. One. That was unbelievably frank of you. Two. WHAT THE SEVEN HELLS DID YOU DO, WOMAN!

Kokori: (Backs slowly away from the angry person) (Me: She's really beyond angry. ) Yeah…(gulp) Ah…You have a blind date tomorrow with a guy none of us knows who will pick you up at your house at 5:45. See ya! (Runs away, really really fast.)

This leaves Katara alone; raging, fuming, and ready to kill someone.

--------------------------------------------

In another part of the Village

WHAT DID YOU DO, BAKA!?!?!?!?!?

Naruto slowly backs away from his raging, dark-haired teammate.

Naruto: Uhhhhh, well, you see. You been so down lately, everyone's worried so I set up a blind date for you. Pick her up tomorrow at 5:45.

Sasuke: A BLIND DATE! YOU MORON! WHO SAID I WANTED A DATE IN THE FIRST PLACE! HAVEN'T YOU REALIZED I'VE NEVER BEEN IN A DATING RELATIONSHIP! EVER!

Naruto: (confused) Ehhhh?! Really? But…all those fangirls.

Sasuke: I didn't ask for them!! So why did you give me a date!

Naruto: Ahhh. Well, you'll still have to pick her. Bye! (Disappears and runs away)

Sasuke: (Goes to the nearest wall and starts hitting his head while punctuating every word.) What. The. Hell. I'm. Going. To. Murder. Him. What. The. Hell.

------------------------------------------------

Sasuke: That was weird.

Katara: (sarcastically) Ya think.

Naruto: Yep he did!

Sasuke: (Turns on Naruto) (deadly whisper) You. (Starts beating up Naruto)

Me: Yes! Plan A part 1, complete!

Katara: You planned this? And when did Naruto appear?

Me: In order, yes and he came in the middle of the story.

Katara: Oh (Goes and tries to break up the fight) (Me: I emphasize the word "tries")
