This story consists of very short chapters, so no one complain about the chapters being too short . . .
Chapter 1:
"That's it," a voice sighed, making Kiba Inuzuka look up from where he was unlacing his shoes. Shikamaru Nara made a small sighing sound from where he was lying flat on his back on a bed, his arms across his eyes to block out any light. He was still fully dressed, shoes included, as he'd either been too lazy or too tired to change.
"What's going on?" asked Kakashi Hatake as he entered the room. He was followed by Choji Akimichi, Ino Yamanaka, and Sakura Haruno. The pink haired girl shut the door behind herself and put her hands on her hips.
"How can you guys be so wiped out?" she asked disapprovingly. "And this is every night, too!"
"Sakura! You're on stage for fifteen minutes, tops!" Kiba shouted in outrage. "A show's—what?! An hour and a half, two hours!" The brunette would have waved his hands to place emphasis on his words, had he not managed to tie knots around his fingers with his laces.
"That's just it!" Naruto Uzumaki broke in, having had been the one to begin the entire conversation. "It used to be different; we'd play a show, and we'd still be fine when it ended. But that was before Gaara quit the band." He drew in a breath now that he'd managed to spit that out. "I know I've said it before, but I mean it this time. I think we need to seriously consider finding someone to replace Gaara."
I have to admit, this is a very short chapter. For the most part, the rest are going to be about 2 or more pages long.
