Author's and other people's pointless ramblings!:

Lynn: DID YOU MISS US?! We missed you guys! It's been like, what, a week? SO LONG!! So, I've been reeeeeeaaaaaaaally bored, so I decided to try making a long chapter… That actually makes sense.

Ally: Be afraid.

Joe:-Still not in the author's note... rambling thingy- WHAT THE HELL?! How come… it… gets to be in the author's note, but I can't?

Liza: Because we like her better.

Joe:-still no here! - Oh…

Lynn: So, Anywho, we would like to thank everyone who's reading this right now. Especially if you've been with us since my first FanFic, Surviving Courtland High! It really means a lot to us, and we really hope we don't disappoint you all. So, um… THIS IS TOO SERIOUS!! I'll post the description now:

DESCRIPTION

It's been a whole year since the Sand Siblings teleported to our world and met the Haswell girls. And although, they've been in touch, the girls have only seen their friends a handful of times. Now, a month after their last visit, the girls leave to begin their summer vacation. Lynn decides to join Joe, Ally, and Joe's Cousin at a beach house in Virginia. Liza, on the other hand, is spending her summer swimming with Callie at home. Yeah, real exciting summer, right? However, when some… other than welcome guests pop in on Lynn, she'll have to put up with them until help arrives. She also has to make sure they don't destroy Joe's beach house. Liza also has her hands full when she gets teleported into the middle of the Leaf Village! Can Liza, the Sand Sibs, and the Leaf Ninjas rescue Lynn and the other two from the evil clutches of the other than welcome guests? Will Joe finally learn how to cook? Will The girls be able to fix their smoke alarms? And, will Gaara be able to keep control of Shukaku, even when his friends' lives are in danger? Who knows, but it promises to be entertaining! I mean… -dramatic voice- Find out in Surviving Summer!! YAAAAAAAY!

Liza: That was… weird... You totally copied that from the Sequel announcement, didn't you?

Lynn:... Yes.

Liza: Just start the story already.

Lynn: RIGHT!

…………………………………………………………………………………..

Chapter One… The first chapter… YAY!

"GIVE ME MY DAMN IPOD NOW!"

"Make me."

Lynn turned her iPod up a little bit more as Joe and Ally continued to argue about who knows what. Whoever thought it was a good idea to cram both Joe and Ally into the same car together for six hours was an idiot. So, guess who's brilliant idea it was…

"Lyyyyyyyyynnnnnn." Joe whined pathetically. "Why does Ally have to come with us?"

Lynn paused her iPod and sighed. "We went over this! Because she's our best friend and would kill us if we left without her... And I like living!"

"Alright, then why is Joe coming?" Ally asked in a threatening and scary tone.

"Um, because it's his family's beach house?"

This answer like thingy seemed to satisfy Ally, as she didn't ask anymore questions. Lynn smiled and turned her iPod back on. Why it was that three homicidal ninja's were easier to deal with than two spaztastical teens? Atleast the ninjas were much less violent (How ironic).

"JOE! Give me the damn iPod before I strangle you with my headphones."

"What? I can't hear you over MY new iPod."

Lynn sighed as Ally leaned over her and wrapped her headphone wire around Joe's neck. Honestly, Lynn was kind of impressed. She really thought that the death by headphones was simply an empty threat. It was by far the weirdest death threat she ever heard (And she's heard quite a few… Don't ask.)

"Guys, I think we're here!" Lynn said happily, tring desperately to get out of the car before she became a murder witness.

"Hang on, I have a job to finish."

"Lynn… Help… me…" Joe shouted between coughs and gagging noises.

After ten minutes of trying to pull Ally away from Joe, the three were finally out of the car. As Joe said goodbye to his mother, Ally and Lynn decided it would be best if they took all the luggage in (mostly because Joe is a wuss). The house wasn't huge, but it was definitely bigger than average beach houses. The whole place was decorated with sail boat pictures with light blue and white colored towels, rugs, carpet, and curtains. The only thing that made the house look lived in was the several computer wires and garbage that was lying around. Lots an lots of garbage (-Cringe-).

"What the hell? What kind of a slob is Joe's cousin?" Ally asked as she carefully avoided stepping on any garbage.

"Um, the kind that is in college." Lynn said simply, picking up some random beer cans and pizza plates (Complete with half eaten pizza and grease stains. Yum... I think I just threw up a little). "I wonder what he's going to college for."

"I don't know, but I hope it's something that pays well because there's NO way his lazy ass is going to find a wife living like this."

Lynn nodded as she and Ally cleared a way to the living room. Once their journey through the swamp-o-garbage, Ally and Lynn dropped the luggage and flopped down on the couch. The two sat there in silence, both happy to finally be away from home.

"So," Ally said, smiling. "How long do you think it will be until a germaphob like you goes crazy here and starts cleaning?"

"I give until at least tomorrow. I'm too tired to clean now."

Ally sat up and looked at her best friend. "Whatever. If worse comes to worse, I'l just force Joe to clean it! This place is disgusting. Who is Joe's mysterious cousin anyway? Please tell me that he's nothing like Joe."

Lynn shrugged. "I don't know, I can't remember his name. I only know that he used to bully Joe when they were younger."

"Sweet, so I have something in common with him." Ally said happily. Lynn gave a slight thumbs up in approval.

A few minutes later, Joe walked in with a smile on his face. Anyone who saw Joe would simply believe he was a goofy teenaged boy. However, Joe was actually an evil mastermind with an IQ above genius. Frightening, isn't it? Anywho, joe walked over to the two girls and sat down next to Lynn (He figure that tis way, if Ally gets mad, he can hide behind Lynn).

"So, what do you guys think?" He asked, seeming very satisfied with himself for no apparent reason (Probably for his human sheild plan. Go Joe).

"Do you really want to know?" Ally asked, cocking an eyebrow, "Because I'm thinking that being an asswhole runs in your family. THIS PLACE IS A FUCKING MESS!!"

"I'm thinking about fried babies!" Lynn shouted, feeling slightly light headed for some reason. Ally laughed hysterically while Joe decided it would be best to begin cleaning (For his own safety). Lynn smiled and lied back down

After twenty minutes of watching Joe try to learn how to work a vacuum, Ally and Lynn decided to help him. Lynn agreed to take on the upstairs while Joe and Ally cleaned down stairs. Unfortunately for Lynn, the upstairs is where most of the bedrooms were. Yeah… Let's just say that there were thing in those rooms that will scar her for life. Not to say that the downstairs was a picnic. Ally almost got eaten by… Something, and Joe almost chocked to death on dust.

"So… what now." Joe asked happily.

"I say we get back at your bastard of a cousin!" Ally shouted like an evil maniac.

Joe thought for a moment. "H-how do you suppose we would do that? Trash the lovely house we just cleaned?"

"Fine, shut down my ideas."

"IDEA SHUTTER DOWNER" Lynn shouted, pointing an accusing finger at Joe. "However, I do believe we shpild maybe... rent a movie?"

Joe agreed and quickly turned on the movies on demand channel before Ally could protest. While Joe and Ally rented random movies they'd all seen a thousand times and fought over the remote, Lynn decided to go make popcorn (So not to risk being caught in the cross fire of the Great Remote War) . She wasn't sure why, but hanging out like this brought her back to the month when the Sand Siblings came to visit (Maybe it was all the death threats?). Unfortunately, nothing really exciting had happened since the three ninjas' vvisited about a month ago. Well, besides the car ride with Joe and Ally. Now THAT was entertainment (Inless you're Joe or Ally).

"Hey guys, the popcorns-"

Suddenly, the entire kitchen became filled with a familiar smoke. Lynn coughed and gagged as she tried to make her way out of the room. Suddenly, the Goth girls felt someone grab her by the back of her hoodie and lift her off the ground. Lynn quickly began flailing her arms and kicking until she felt herself make contact with a larger object. Lynn fell to her feet and took off running in the opposite direction of whatever grabbed her. Unfortunately, the opposite direction of whatever grabbed her was a wall.

"Ow..." Lynn muttered, trying to keep herself from falling over.

"Yo, Lynn, what the hell did you do?" Joe asked as he entered the room with Ally. "I know you can't cook, but all you really had to do was put popcorn in the microwave! Look, there's even a popcorn button! THEY MADE THAT FOR PEOPLE LIKE YOU!!"

Lynn's head stopped spinning long enough for her to be able to make her way over to her two friends. "Guys, we have a problem- why are you all greeeeen."

"Lynn, did you run into a wall again? That's pretty spaztastical." Ally said, trying to steady her dizzy friend. "What's wrong with you? Is there someone in there?"

Before Lynn could say anything, the three teens were distracted by a loud noise that came from the kitchen. They turned around and tried to find the source of the noise as the smoke settled. There, in the middle of the kitchen, were nine very strange looking people. Lynn, despite her concussion, immediately recognized them.

And she immediately knew that, if she didn't get help, they were all doomed. Cue evil music!

……………………………….Courtland…………………………………………

Liza drifted lazily from one side of the pool to the other. It wasn't really hot outside… and it was overcast… and thundering… but Liza had nothing better to do. Besides, at least this way she wouldn't tan! Of course, Liza had been invited to go along with her sister and the others but she really didn't feel comfortable hanging out with her sister's friends. That, and she wanted t stay incase the Sand Siblings showed up like they had promised to. Unfortunately, nothing had happened yet.

"WHEN IS THIS SUMMER GOING TO END?!" Liza shouted up to the sky. Then, as if the sky was answering, the phone suddenly rang. Liza sighed and drifted her way toward the deck and threw some pants on (She already had a shirt on while she was swimming) and made her way to the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hey Liza, its Callie! Want to come over?"

"YES! I'll-

Suddenly, Liza felt herself falling backwards. As she fell her whole body began to go numb, as if she was falling through cold water. Things began to spin and spin until they all blended together into darkness (the worse part... SHE HUNG UP ON CALLIE! Now she was going to think she hung up on her... Alright, maybe that's not the worse possible thing).

"What the hell?" Liza coughed out as she fell into the middle of a toxic amount of smoke.

Just as Liza went to stand up, she was knocked back down when something whizzed by her ear. The tomboy quickly backed away as she was surrounded by three different people surrounded her.

"Who are you, and what is your business being in the leaf village?" A male voice asked.

Lynn's eyes widened. She knew that voice! "You're Shikamaru Nara, aren't you?"

Shikamaru stepped back a little. His team mates, Choji and Ino, gasped a little. "How do you know him?" Ino demanded, trying not to sound as terrified as she felt.

"Um… Temari told me about him." Liza answered (lied) calmly. "She told me about all of you, actually."

"And how do we know you're not just a spy?" Shikamaru asked. Liza had to admit, it was a pretty fair question to ask someone who had magically appeared from no where wearing weird clothes. Well... except for the fact that she fell over when a kunai went pass her!

Liza smiled. "Because I have pictures."

The three ninjas took the pictures from their suspect. It was a picture that Lynn had taken of Kankuro and Liza together to tease her with. Liza had yelled at her sister for being do immature, but had kept the photo none the less.

After a few minute of studying the photo, Shikamaru finally handed it back to the girl. "Choji, I need you to go send a message to the Kazekage to tell him what has happened. Ino, you bring this girl to Tsunade's office." Shikamaru ordered sternly. The two ninjas nodded and went to their jobs.

"So, wait, what's going on? Don't I get a phone call?" Liza asked calmly as Ino yanked her away by her arm. "I am sosss leaving you guys a bad review when I leave."

…………………………………………Suna...

Temari walked down the hall away from her brother's office. The eldest Sand Sibling had just been ordered to travel to Konoha in order to renegotiate their current peace treaty. With the Akatsuki currently skulking around, Kazekage Gaara wanted to make sure that the two villages stayed united (Ha, Kazekage Gaara… sounds so serious).

"Temari! Temari!"

Temari stopped and waited for the man calling her to run to where she was (God, she's lazy). When the man finally reached her, he held out a letter in his hand. "It's an urgent letter from the Village Hidden in the Leaves."

Temari took the letter from the man and opened it. What the hell could Konoha want? Couldn't they at least wait until I got there in a freakin' week!

Then, Temari read the letter. As she continued to read, she felt her stomach actually churn. "GAARA! KANKURO! GET OUT HERE!" She shouted, still choosing to be lazy... I guess.

Gaara and Kankuro immediately ran out of Gaara's office and into the middle of the hallway. "Temari, what-

Temari simply pushed the piece of paper into their faces. "Read." She ordered sternly, although they probably could have figured that out on their own. Or maybe they wouldn't have, who knows? After a few minutes, Temari pulled the letter away from her stunned brothers' faces.

"So, what do we do now?" Temari asked calmly. Although, on the inside, she was freaking out. She didn't know whether to be excited about seeing her friend, or terrified for her clueless friend.

Gaara and Kankuro exchange glances with one another. After a few minutes of thinking, Gaara finally had an answer. However, he was pretty sure no one would like it.

"Well," Gaara started uneasily. "I guess the only solution is to go to Konoha before Tsunade eats her."
