A/N: Hiya. I needed a break from Mission Mayhem, because of writer's block, so I bring this story. Please review, I want to see if this is any good. This is just a random idea I came up with. We do something like this at my school. Except it's a day, not a month.

Disclaimer: If I owned Naruto, why would I be writing fanfiction?

Sports Month - Chapter 1 – The Result of Tsunade having a good idea.

"Meet in the field, meet in the field," A pink haired kunoichi muttered, jogging as fast as she could without actually sprinting. "Dammit! Where the hell is that field?"

Haruno Sakura was late for an emergency meeting. And that was bad. Very bad.

Because, of course, it was only an emergency meeting. Where basically everyone she knew was going to be. And only the hokage herself had called it.

In other words, Sakura was screwed.

Really, really screwed.

She turned a corner hastily, looking for any signs of a green field. When the message of an emergency meeting had been relayed to her, she was told that she was supposed to meet a bunch of people at a green field.

"Where's she green field?" Sakura had asked the messenger.

"Don't worry, you'll know it when you see it," the man had replied, before dashing off.

'Know it when I see it, my ass,' she thought, frustrated, as she turned another corner.

Sakura stopped abruptly when a red flag came into view. "What in the world is that supposed to be?" She asked out loud. Squinting, she tried to read the words.

"Lemur..agency..? The hell? No, wait, Emer, not lemur! Oh, um, Emer..gency..OH. Emergency! Meet…in..g. G? ..WHAT THE CRAP? OH. Ahah. Meeting. Emergency meeting. That's nice. Hold on, there's more. I…heart..purple…PONIES?" Sakura gaped at the flag. Whoever wrote that had to be on crack.

"Shit!" She swore, realizing she had wasted 2 precious minutes reading the stupid flag. Sakura hurried over to the flag. Not sprinting, so she wouldn't ruin her hair. Which Ino had straightened. Because Naruto had electrified Sakura. Kind of. And her hair got really messed up. So messed up, that Sasuke was showing signs of rolling on the floor laughing.

And that's not a good thing. So after Ino fixed it up, Sakura wasn't allowed to sprint around or wet her hair for 3 days, this being her last one, unless she wanted to look like and idiot with a pink afro. Again. And by god, she did not.

Sakura had finally reached the flag, and, because she couldn't believe her eyes, double-checked that it really did say 'I heart purple ponies.'

It did. Sakura smirked and shook her head. Only then did she notice she was standing on a green field.

"GET IN YOUR GODDAMN THREE-MAN-CELLS, YOU SAD EXCUSES FOR NINJAS!" A booming voice screamed, making Sakura jump out of her skin.

She turned around to see Tsunade, standing on…a tree, with a microphone in hand, yelling out orders. 'Guess I'm not late after all,' She thought, making a mental note to thank whoever was up in Heaven. Her mood lightened instantly.

Deciding she'd better listen to the hokage, Sakura looked around for her teammates.

"Sakura," A monotone voice spoke.

Sakura grinned, in spite of herself. "Hi, Sasuke-kun!" She said happily before turning around to face the raven haired ninja.

Sasuke gave a small nod, then turned around and walked away.

Sakura raised an eyebrow. What was up with this dude?

"You're supposed to follow."

"Right; knew that," The kunoichi grinned again. She followed Sasuke through a maze of people, rolling her emerald eyes when she heard a, "Sakura-chaannn!"

"Hey, Naruto. Kakashi-sensei's late as usual, ne?" Sakura greeted.

Naruto grinned, and then put on a fake disapproving look, "You were late, too, Sakura-chan. But at least Sasuke found you and brought you back here. I can't believe you didn't see me waving! Sasuke volunteered to go get you. You wouldn't-"

"Shut the hell up, you loser. I didn't volunteer; you would've gotten lost if you tried to find Sakura," Sasuke retorted, shoving his hands into his pockets.

Naruto frowned, this time it being real. "I would not have gotten lost!"

There was no answer.

"You're supposed to say 'would too,' dammit!" Naruto yelled.

"How many times were you dropped when you were little?" Sasuke asked, snorting when Naruto made a rude hand gesture.

Sakura rolled her eyes. These two were always like this.

A puff of smoke appeared, and a tall figure emerged, swatting Naruto's hand down. "Don't do that. It's rude," Kakashi said, as the smoke elapsed.

Naruto frowned and muttered something.

Sakura shook her head, pink hair falling into her eyes.

"OKAY, FREAKS! LISTEN UP AND LISTEN GOOD!" Tsunade screamed, her voice echoing through the microphone. Many ninjas winced, but the crowd silenced.

Tsuande coughed twice. "Finally. Welcome to the emergency meeting! We're here to discus a few important matters. Let's make this quick and simple. Tomorrow, we will be starting an important event. Sports Month, it's called. For 30 days, each three-man-cell here will be participating in 20 activities. You will be facing off against another team. Your goal is to win as many activities as possible. You will gain points for each activity you win, and lose points for each one you fail to accomplish."

Sakura frowned; why were they having a competition, anyway?

Naruto voiced her thoughts, "WHAT'S THE POINT OF ALL THIS?!"

Tsunade's right eye twitched, "Because," She hissed, "The three-man-cell that ends up with the least points at the end of the tournament wins.." She paused dramatically, "A trip to hell!"

Silence.

"It's an evaluation, you idiots! If you don't win, you'll get demoted! PERMANENTLY! So you'd better do your best, or you'll just get a whole lot of humiliation next month!" Tsunade yelled. "Now get lost! Your ship leaves in 3 hours! You must be packed and ready by the Konoha gates before then! Remember, the setting is an island in the middle of nowhere, so come prepared! Have fun!"

Sakura turned to her two teammates, a deep frown worn on her face.

"Great. There goes a month of my life," Sasuke muttered.

"Yes. So, anyway…as I won't be coming with you, there's no reason for me to stay any longer," Kakashi said cheerfully, "I'll be going. Oh, and, no pressure or anything, but don't lose. The consequences will be painful."

And their sensei disappeared.

"AUGHH! THE COLAMITY!" Sakura yelled to no one in particular.

Naruto, on the other hand, had changed from what-the-shit-is-going-on-this-is-stupid to ecstatic. "YEAH! WOOT! WE'RE GOING TO WIN THIS COMPETITION! WE'LL OWN ALL THOSE LOSERS!"

Sakura sighed and trudged along home to pack; this was going to be a long month.

A/N: REVIEW!! Please? Yes. So, um, anyway. There's the first chapter. I kind of like this story. Please review. And tell if I can continue. No flames, please.
