After a blizzard that happened two days ago, six inches of snow was still on the ground. The sun had mainly been behind the clouds practically all day and almost everyone was helping to build a giant snowman of about ten feet tall.
Akemi was sitting on Itachi's shoulders, smoothing out the snowman's head. Kisame and Akkio were shaping the torso and he arms. Hinahoshi and Kiba were gathering balls of snow that could come in use.
"Has anyone seen either Wakana or Shinobu anywhere?" Hinahoshi asked after she and Kiba came back with two boulders of snow.
"No one has seen Shinobu for sure." Akemi stated, "but I don't know about Wakana."
Akkio tried her best not to laugh since she knew where Wakana was. Luckily she has a really good poker face. "Wakana is inside the snowman."
"Wakana is not inside the snowman because I checked." Hinahoshi exclaimed.
"How could you check out the snowman with me around?" Kiba teased. "Wakana is probably inside making hot chocolate for us."
Hinahoshi's cheeks blushed a little, but that went unnoticed since it was cold outside.
Meanwhile, Wakana was sitting inside the belly of the snowman, bundled up inside her winter coat and hugging her small blanket to keep warm. The snowman had a hole in the middleof the hollowed out space where the grass was visible underneath the blanket that Wakana was sitting on.
Akkio has been doing a great job keeping teh whole prank a secret, being the clown of the group to where no one takes her seriously enough. Only Wakana and Akkio knew of the plans to make everyone jump out of their wits. It was at Wakana's house so no one suspected her to make everyone jump.
'The only one left to show up here is Shinobu, Wakana.' Akkio texted Wakana. 'Proceed on to phase two and you know what to do from there.'
"Who are you texting, Akkio?" Akemi wondered. Akkio quickly sent the message and deleted it off of her phone so Akemi would not see it if Akemi took her phone and decided to be snoopy.
Wakana's phone lit up, indicating the signal. 'Shinobu, come over right away. I would like to you to see the snowman everyone built.' She texted and sent the message to him.
Shinobu drove over to Wakana's house and saw the snowman in the front yard. Everyone else was inside having hot chocolate. He knocked on the door and Hinahoshi answered it. "Wakana home?" Shinobu asked as he walked in. "She texted me to come over right now but I do not see her."
"So I have to repeat myself to everyone hear?" Akkio was about to lose her temper since so one will not actually listen to her. "Wakana is inside the snowman!"
"No she's not, Akkio!" Akemi argued.
"Well, Wakana is not inside the house and she's not outside, from what I can observe. Where is she then!" Shinobu tried to reason out the situation over Akkio and Akemi.
