Disclaimer. I don't own Ronin Warriors or Naruto… CALE!
Cale: I know you are happy to see me, but that doesn't mean you have to yell at everyone that is reading this. They are going to run in fear…
GDW: Naw… This is a weird story, and a lot of people are attracted to weird stories! They are going to like this!
Cale: Why is it that you just had to think of something like this? You always think of the weird things. I mean, the Ronin Warriors, me, and the other Warlords in the Naruto realm?
GWD: Don't forget the other two that join you. I mean, that just adds to it!
Cale: Yes, who could forget those two? But, well… Just read it…
A/N: Alright, as Cale stated, this is weird. I mean, I just had this stupid idea when I was watching Ronin Warriors after renting it from Netflix. My friend was texting me about Naruto, and well, the mix is as follows… But this story is about two girls from our time falling into the Naruto world, but they don't fall alone. The Ronins and Warlords end up with them. It's a hoot! I love it!
Continental Trips and DVDs Don't Mix
Prologue
"Are we there yet?"
"No."
"Are we there yet?"
"No…"
"Are we there yet?"
"NO! Now stop asking me that fucking question you pipsqueak! Don't you understand the word no? We just got onto the plane. It will take us at least sixteen hours to make it to New Zealand, got it?" An eighteen year old sighed, putting her hand over her face. "Why, oh why merciful gods, did I have to be the one stuck taking her? Why did Uncle Tom dutifully say that it would be a wonderful and educational trip to New Zealand, free of charge, as long as you take your cousin and watch her?"
"Because you loooovvvveee me…" A small voice from beside her brought her attention there. A girl the age of six was sitting there, messing with her seatbelt, "Hey, how does this thing truly work? I never did understand it…"
The eighteen year old smirked, quickly buckling the six year old in the seat, "This is how they work, and if you unbuckle it, your seat will explode and you will be sent flying to your death, do you want that?" At the girl's wide eyes and shake of her head, she nodded, "Good, Spoons, now why don't you watch your precious Naruto shows that I have downloaded onto your computer for you…"
"Oh! Oh! The Sasuke episodes!" The girl's cerulean blue eyes shinned as she quickly fumbled with the laptop that sat on her lap. She then looked at the eighteen year old, "Uh, Cooper, could you help me?"
Cooper sighed, taking the laptop and quickly bringing up an episode, "Here…"
Spoons frowned, pouting out her lip, "I don't like this episode, the bunny gets scared…"
Cooper sighed, clicking on a different episode, "There, how about this one?"
Spoons giggled, taking the laptop from Cooper's grip, nodding, "I like this one!" She then quickly put her headphones into the computer and kept her attention on the screen.
Cooper sighed, pulling her laptop onto her lap and clicking on one of the minimized windows, smiling as Microsoft Word came up with things typed up. She hated herself for working on her vacation, but she needed to type up her notes for World History I before she got back or her professor was going to kill her and dock points off her final grade.
Spoons leaned over, talking rather loudly because of her headphones that were still in her ears, "Hey! You told me no work! You said you were going to have fun!"
Cooper sighed, quickly saving her work and then closing the window out, "What are you talking about? I wasn't working! I was just checking an email…" Spoons eyed her, and she shrugged, "Alright, alright, would it make you feel any better if I watched Ronin Warriors as I promised I would?" Spoons nodded, and she shook her head, pulling up another one of the minimized windows, smiling as the faces of the Ronin Warriors greeted her, "You all were always my hero…"
"And your obsession with Sage!" Spoons giggled.
Cooper glared at her, pointing, "Watch your own!" She then put her headphones on and into her computer, sighing in content as she started her DVD of them. Two hours later, after switching out DVDs and loving every second of the episodes, she felt something tip against her arm. She turned and smiled lightly, seeing her younger cousin asleep, leaning against her arm.
The girl had fallen asleep watching Naruto. Cooper quickly took her headphones out of her ears and paused the show. She then minimized the window and packed her laptop up, laughing lightly to herself as she felt the bag moving lightly. She knew what was contained in the bag, and knew that her cousin could never be separated from the small ferret and fox that were hiding in there. She then placed the backpack containing the laptop on Spoons' lap, only to have the girl grab it possessively.
Cooper sighed, turning back to her own movie. A smile appeared on her face as she noticed what episode it was. She admitted to herself that she never watched the DVDs in order, a habit that she had picked up from her dad before he died. Whenever asked why, she would reply that she had already seen the episodes in order, and knew what was going to happen. At least this way she could continue to guess, and it helped fuel her mind.
Cooper was a writer. Yes, she was in college, but already had four best selling books for young adults her age. And she thanked the Ronin Warriors and the Warlords for their contributions. They fueled her mind into thinking different thoughts about different turns, and her cousin sleeping beside her loved her for that.
The episode that was paused was actually the first episode of the series, one of her favorites on how it was executed. She loved the entrance of the other Ronins, how they all seemed to jump from the roofs, seemingly not dropping to their doom, but hey, who was complaining. She always loved Sage's entrances, they always seemed to enthrall her to no extent. Yes, she did have an obsession with Sage, her main character in her novels was based off of him, along with his twin, who was based off of Cale, another one she had an obsession with.
As the stewardess passed her, she smiled and waved a hand, getting her attention. "Uh, excuse me, and I am sorry to interrupt you, but could you possibly bring me a water and a coke for my cousin?"
The stewardess smiled politely at her, "You are not interrupting me at all, and you are so well mannered. Yes, of course I can bring you your water and a coke for your cousin. I will be right back."
Cooper started her DVD once again, sighing in content as Sage made his comments along the lines of the bigger they are, the harder they fall. It ceased to make her smile as he seemed to say something like that always.
She thanked the stewardess as she was given her water and the coke for her cousin. She then opened her water and took a sip, suddenly feeling tired. Of course, she could understand why she was tired. She had spent the last three weeks barely getting any sleep, and watching over her cousin as her uncle went on a business trip with her aunt.
She quickly packed up her laptop and DVDs, being very gently with them all. She then leaned her seat back and cradled her backpack closer to herself, falling asleep, without the knowledge of doing it. The sound of the captain coming over the announcement system barely registered in her mind.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As she awoke, voices filtered through her mind, familiar voices. She moaned and draped an arm over her face, "Spoons, leave me alone. Wake me when the plane lands…"
"Do any of you have any clue where we are?"
"No, I was hoping you might, Rowen."
"Hey, no one look at me, guys, I was training!"
"Guys, I'm hungry, does anyone have any food?"
"Would you try and keep it down? She is sleeping…"
"Well good, let's wake her up and ask her if she knows where we are…"
Cooper's eyes shot open, and she quickly sat up, looking around wildly. As she saw she wasn't on the plane, she looked at the five figures around her, "Alright, if you plan on getting any ransom, you have another thing coming… I have no family…." Her eyes went wide at the sight before her. The one closest to her was the victim of her hands roaming over his face and chest, "No, this can't be… It's that water. I knew they put something in the water, oh no, no, no…"
She pulled away, trying to get her mind back, "Blond hair over the right eye, beautiful blue left one… Green and white sub armor… The way he talks…" Her eyes went even wider, and she pulled her hair, "Sage, this can't be! He can't be sitting right in front of me, regarding me with a face that is practically wants to know how I know him…" She shook her head, looking at the others around her, "Red and white sub armor, long unruly black hair, tiger blue eyes… Ryo. Blue hair," she started mumbling, "Spoons' favorite character," she then spoke clearly again, "blue and white sub armor… Rowen…"
"Are you alright?" The 'Sage' look alike asked, reaching for her.
Cooper scooted away from them, "Alright, what is going on? Who are you?" She then gasped, looking around, "My little cousin, where is she?"
"Easy, easy…" the 'Ryo' look alike stated, putting both of his hands forward in peace.
"No, no, no!" Cooper mumbled, searching frantically around herself, "She is the only thing I had left… She was part of my inspiration!"
"I'm Sage Date," Sage stated, trying to settle her down. He then nodded to the blue haired one, "This is Rowen." He indicated the one Cooper had though was Ryo, "This is Ryo…"
Cooper pointed shakily at another, "Let me guess, this is Cye…" At his nod, she turned to the last one, "And that would mean you are Kento." She started to hyperventilate, "I can't believe this is happening to me, I just can't believe this…"
"Cooper!" A sob brought her back into her right mind. She looked around desperately, trying to locate the owner of the sob. "Cooper!"
"Spoons!" Cooper yelled, her emerald eyes narrowing, "Where are you?" She quickly stood, stumbling as her legs were wobbly, "Spoons!"
Something white whizzed on the ground past them and then curved back crawling up Cooper's leg. She quickly grabbed the thing as it got to her waist. A sigh came from her mouth, "Tinkerbell, where is she you little furry ferret? Huh? You can tell me…"
The ferret squeaked before jumping out of Cooper's hands. It then ran off into the forest, Cooper trailing behind it, the others behind her. Cooper skidded to a halt as she came into a clearing, the sight before her causing her to want to hyperventilate once again.
Spoons was still in her plane seat, buckled up. She was swatting away a hand from someone that was trying help her, "No! Go away! I don't wanna go with you! Leave me alone!"
"But it is dangerous up here…" The figure started.
Spoons screamed at the top of her lungs, causing the figure to pull away from her, trying to shield their ears. Cooper laughed at that, finding humor in all of this, "You don't want to try that again, she will definitely blow your eardrum." As the figure looked down at her, she nodded, "Trust me, it happened to a stranger."
Spoons smiled, her tears stopping as she saw her older cousin, "Cooper!" Her smile grew even more as the others appeared behind her. She pointed, "Oooohhhhhh… is that who I think it is, Cooper? Is it? Is it? Is it?"
Cooper sighed, nodding her head, "Yes, Spoons, and is that person who I think it is?"
Spoons looked at the person that had tried to help her, nodding, "Yup, it's Kakashi…"
Cooper came forward some, "Spoons, I want you to unbuckle, understand? Then you can either fall and we will catch you, or you can grab a limb, alright?"
Spoons shook her head, "No!"
"Spoons, unbuckle," Cooper mumbled.
"No!" Spoons repeated, squeezing her eyes shut. "I like it up here, I think I am fine…"
Cooper sighed, turning back to the Ronin Warriors behind her, "I never thought I would be asking you five, of all people, for a favor." She put her hands together as if in prayer, "Rowen, please, please, can you get underneath her? She would trust you, of all of the Ronins, to catch her. Maybe then she would unbuckle her seatbelt…"
She then turned back to look at Spoons, smiling lightly as Rowen came forward. Idiot. Her mind laughed horribly at him, pointing evilly. She the laughed lightly, "Spoons, you know that if you stay up there, your seat is going to fall from the tree and kill you, right?"
Spoons screamed at that, desperately trying to undo her seatbelt, "Cooper, Cooper, it won't undo!" Tears came to her eyes, "I'm gonna die! I'm gonna die!"
Cooper put her hand up to cover her face, trying to mask her embarrassment, "Spoons, you see that button that says push? Well, push it…"
Spoons did as she was told, "Now what?"
"Pull the two pieces apart, pipsqueak!" Cooper sighed, rolling her eyes as her cousin did as she was told.
A smile came to Spoons' face as the seatbelt undid and let her go, "I did it! I did…" She screamed as she started to fall.
Cooper had moments of doubt as she looked from the falling form of her younger cousin to Rowen, her supposed rescuer. She bit her lip, "Uh, please merciful gods, please, let him catch her… let someone catch her…"
Spoons screaming voice died and turned to laughter. Cooper opened her eyes, not realizing that she had closed them. Spoons was on the ground, a boy about her age beside her. Rowen was standing in his place, looking confused.
Spoons latched onto the boy beside her, causing him to try and pull away from her, "Cooper! Cooper! Look! It's Sasuke! It's really him!" She squealed in joy, "Oh yay! I actually get to meet the awesome Uchiha that can do anything he puts his mind to!"
Cooper moaned, slapping her face with her hand, hating her cousin at the moment. As Kakashi came towards her, the Ronin Warriors came forward as well, their muscles readying for a battle. Cooper wanted to whoop in joy. The Ronins actually trying to defend her from someone they thought was evil.
"Alright, alright, I have a confession to make…" Cooper mumbled, causing everyone to look at her, excluding her cousin and Sasuke. "That, that thing…" She pointed at her cousin, "I don't know where it came from. I am desperately not related to it. We just met on the plane ride. She is definitely not my cousin!"
Spoons whistled lightly, causing two different pitched squeaks to answer. One was the ferret's, and the other appeared to be a small fox's. Both ran over towards her, and Spoons giggled, "Tinkerbelle one, Tinkerbelle two, look! Look! It's our favorite person in the entire world, other than Rowen!"
Cooper collapsed backwards, only to be caught by Sage. She smiled her thanks, "Aren't you the gentleman, thank you." She then nodded, "I always wanted to see if you would do that, but I didn't mean to do that one." She then sighed, "Thank the merciful gods that she is still in one piece and not all over the forest floor!"
Kakashi watched her closely, "What is your group doing here?"
"My group?" Cooper glared at him, "Oh, so you think this was all my fault?" She cracked her knuckles, taking a step forward, "Why is it men always have to blame me for something like this?" She pointed at him, "Alright, I'll admit, so I was going on vacation to New Zealand! That doesn't mean that it was all my fault! My uncle booked the plane!" She then rolled her eyes, "See if I ever get a genius thought about you in one of my novels!"
Spoons skipped over to her, "Cooper, Cooper, can you believe where we are? Huh? Huh?"
Cooper glared down at her cousin, "He thinks it was my fault, Spoons…"
Spoons giggled, poking Kakashi, "Well, he is stupid…"
Kakashi glared at her with his one visible eye, causing Cooper to sigh, "I wouldn't be talking, Spoons, you couldn't even undo your seatbelt to get out of the seat…"
"Freakin' idiot," Sasuke mumbled in the background.
Spoons crossed her arms over her chest, sniffling lightly, "I am not a freakin' idiot!" She looked at Rowen, "I'm not, am I?"
Ryo came forward, "Wait, wait…" As everyone looked at him, he cleared his throat, "How is it you know about us, but we don't know you?"
Cooper smiled at that, pulling her backpack off of her back, setting it down on the ground and pulling out her laptop, the DVDs as well. She then nodded to Spoons, "You get yours ready, I think we will have to explain the same question to the others after this…"
Spoons nodded and ran over to her discarded backpack and pulling out her laptop. "Alright."
Cooper maximized the window that was playing the Ronin Warriors episodes. She smiled sheepishly as she noticed that it was paused on Sage's upside down form, "Uh, sorry, I paused it so I wouldn't miss anything." She then pressed play, watching in fascination as the Ronins watched the screen closely, mumbling amongst themselves. Cooper then paused it once again, not failing to notice that she had paused it on Sage once again, "Look familiar?"
"That was our first battle together," Cye mumbled, looking at Cooper, "but…"
"You see, um… I don't really know how to explain this to you, but in my cousin's and my world, you are only a show, even though I always thought of you more than that…" She smiled, "Everything of your battle with Talpa was a show, but I bet a lot of it I don't know about." Copper mumbled, blushing deeply as all five of them watched her closely. "You were all my heroes, ever since my father bought me the DVDs to watch you and then died. I relied on all of you to keep me going." She laughed lightly, "And it did wonders for me too. I have four novels that are best sellers, and I am working on my fifth one in an installment of twenty."
Spoons bounded over to them, her laptop in her hands, "My turn! My turn!" She set her laptop down, "Alright, Cooper, show them!"
Cooper sighed, rolling her eyes, "Here, Kakashi, this might explain a little for you on what my group is doing here… maybe…" She hit the start button, and the episode of Naruto started. Cooper's eyes went wide something within her telling her to stop it and put a different one on. She quickly went with her gut feeling, stopping it and starting a different one.
She laughed nervously as the episode started, only to show Kakashi testing Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura. Sasuke came closer, watching closely. Kakashi leaned even closer to Cooper, causing the eighteen year old to narrow her eyes. She never did like anyone invading her personal space, and that also went for the ninja that was doing it at the moment.
Spoons giggled lightly as she watched Cooper clenching her fists even tighter. She plopped herself down between Sage and Ryo, smiling up at them as both looked down at her. She then whispered, "Does anyone want to take any bets on how long Cooper keeps her anger in check?" Both looked at her like she was insane, which if her cousin had been watching, would have agreed with them. She then shrugged, "I'd say that within the next two minutes she shouts at him for invading her personal space…" She then looked specifically at Sage, "Although I bet if you were to try it she wouldn't care one bit…" She giggled, lowering her voice even more, causing the bearer of Halo to lean towards her to hear, "She has a crush on you. In fact, one of the two main characters in her books are based solely off of you…" She giggled once again, causing Sage to smile down at the little girl.
Cooper growled, "I'll give you to the count of five to back away from me and out of my personal space." When Kakashi didn't move an inch, Cooper slammed her body backwards, slamming it into Kakashi and causing him to tumble back. She then stood, moving away from the laptop, stretching, "Spoons…"
"Can we go home now?" Spoons asked her older cousin, smiling.
"Spoons, I do not know how we got here, and I have no clue if we will be able to get back," Cooper sighed. She then added, more to herself, "And I really don't know if I want to go back. I finally have them…"
Spoons pointed at her, glaring, "No you don't! Cale isn't here!" Cooper blushed lightly at her cousin, and Spoons smiled, "But once he shows up you will have everyone…"
"They won't show up, Spoons," Cooper growled, walking towards the Ronins.
"Well, if you are going to be negative as you always are, then no, they won't!" Spoons started. She then screamed as Cooper cracked her knuckles right in front of her, "My tree! I'm going to live in the tree!"
She then ran off, leaving Cooper standing there, a dazed expression on her face. As Sage and Ryo stood, she shook herself out of her daze, "Spoons?" She spun desperately around, "Spoons!"
Her eyes narrowed as they landed on Kakashi and Sasuke, who were still watching the laptop. A hand landed on her shoulder, and it turned out to be the leader of the Ronins, "If we help you find her, will you tell us what is really going on?"
Cooper's eyes narrowed even more at that statement, "You think I have a clue as to what is going on? Why is it everyone thinks that I know what is going on?" She then sighed, "But if you help me I will try and explain what is going on. I am in the same boat as you are. Rowen probably has more of an idea than I would…"
Rowen perked up at that, "Really?"
Cooper rolled her eyes, "You are a genius, Rowen, jeez!" She then looked around the clearing, "Spoons! Where are you?"
"You'll never find my tree!" Spoons' voice laughed from her left, causing Cooper to smile.
"Thanks, Spoons, I know where you are now!" Cooper laughed, shaking her head. She then looked at Ryo, "Alright, here is your chance to help me, Ryo." She pointed at the tree that Spoon's voice came from, "Take Rowen and go get her. I'll stay here and try to explain things to the almighty one here." She indicated Kakashi with her head, "I need to take his pride down a couple of notches."
As the two Ronins disappeared, Cooper walked over to Kakashi and Sasuke, glaring at them. Her glare softened as she remembered that Sasuke was only six, much like her cousin. She flicked his forehead lightly, smiling as she knelt down to his level, "So, what do you think?"
He turned away from her, putting a hand over the offended area, and Cooper then realized that she had done something Itachi had always done. She put her hand on his head, "You know, I think my cousin likes you, how about that? You can have a friend, and she won't be like all those other people, trust me." She then looked up at Kakashi, "Can you take all of us to see the Third? I mean, after my cousin gets back with the other two…" She then turned to look at Sage, "Hey Sage…" He took a step towards her, "Do you think that you can help me get the nerve to actually talk to him?" She blushed lightly, "I mean…"
"COOPER!" Spoons' voice screamed out.
Cooper at once spun in the direction it was coming from, her eyes scanning the area, "Spoons…"
"Cooper! Cooper! You wouldn't believe who it is!" Spoons yelled, dragging someone along behind her as she appeared in the clearing they were in.
Cooper's eyes went wide, trying to fathom words as Spoons halted in front of her, swinging the person's arm back and forth as she wouldn't let them go. "Sp-Spoons…" Cooper stuttered, looking up at the person. She pointed, "No, it couldn't be…"
Spoons giggled as she nodded, jumping up and down, "Yup, yup! Ryo and Rowen are bringing the others now! I wanted to come ahead of them!" She then poked the person, "It's Cale! Cale is here for you!"
Cale, as he was now known, glared down at the little girl, "I still do not understand where I am, and those Ronin brats wouldn't answer my questions…"
"That's because they have no clue where we are," Cooper answered him easily, pulling her cousin away from the Warlord. She then placed her hand out, "The name's Cooper, and it's great to meet you, Cale, Warlord of Corruption!"
Cale looked from her hand to Sage, "Halo, I should have known you would have been here as well…"
Cooper shook her head, walking between the two, "Easy! Easy! Don't be going and fighting! You don't want to hurt anyone around here, do you? Talpa is destroyed! You don't need to fight anymore, and I actually get to see both of you in person!"
Spoons crossed her arms over her chest, "I like Sekky better!" As Cale looked down on her, she stuck her tongue out, "He isn't as scary!"
Cooper moaned, "Yeah, he just has venom on his swords and an addiction to snakes, nothing big, Spoons!"
At the moment she wanted to squeal with joy and grab both of them, hauling them off somewhere to talk and discuss things with both of them, but knew it to be hopeless. As Ryo came back with Rowen, Sekhmet, and Dais, Spoons ran over to Sekhmet, grabbing his hand and smiling.
"You're my favorite!" She smiled up at him, causing Rowen to look at her sadly. She then looked at Rowen, her smile brightening, "But your even more of my favorite!" She then giggled, letting Sekhmet's hand go, jumping up and down, "Piggyback ride? Please? Please?"
Cooper moaned, knowing that if her cousin wasn't killed soon enough, she would be hated, "Spoons, he is a Warlord! Like he is going to give you…" Her eyes went wide when Sekhmet actually picked up the little girl and let her have a piggyback ride. Cooper looked at Cale, "Now wait a second! I was under the impression that you all didn't care about anything! Am I wrong? Do all three of you actually have a heart?" She grabbed Sage when Cale glared at her, "Save me!" She then laughed, letting Sage go and walking over to be right in front of Cale, "Alrighty then! Do your worst, Cale! Let me see it!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, what do you think? Review and tell me! I won't know if you think it's good unless you do… Oh, I know this chapter didn't have much Naruto characters in it, but hey, I like the Ronins more than I do Naruto… Oh well…
Cale: Don't forget to review…
GDW: I already told them that!
Cale: I am just trying to help you.
GDW: Oh, well, in that case, do your worst, Cale! Let me see it!
