A Bubblegum Wonderland
By Cnguyen456
Kakashi grinned as his genin team finished their drinks. He was treating them to a delicious coffee drink after a long, hard mission.
"Let me give you guys a tip before we leave for today." He said gesturing towards the setting sun.
Naruto grinned and bounced up and down excitedly.
"Ne?! Ne?! What is it Kakashi-sensei?!" He practically screamed.
Kakashi smiled.
"Do you guys like gum?" Kakashi asked smoothly.
Sakura gave him a funny look.
"Strawberry, Cherry, and Raspberry flavor." She said raising an eyebrow.
"Orange and Banana" Naruto answered grinning.
"Mint." Sasuke stated quietly.
"What does this have to do with anything?" Sakura asked confused.
Kakashi sighed.
"Somewhere, deep in this coffee shop, is a magical land. It contains every flavor of bubblegum in every shape in size. Some are even shaped like real chewed gum!" Kakashi said quietly but with a tone that just made you want to listen.
Naruto's eyes became outrageously wide.
"No way." He whispered.
"And" Kakashi drawled out the word as far as he could possibly go. "It's all free."
Sasuke raised an eyebrow. That got his attention.
"Free? Absolutely free?" Sakura asked amazed. "How would they make their income? I mean, the product has to cost something."
Kakashi just shook his head knowingly.
"Completely free." He answered smartly.
Naruto and Sakura excitedly chatted with each other about this amazing wonderland of gum while Sasuke listened intently and scanned the room to find possible hidden doors or traps leading to this so called gum wonderland.
Kakashi smirked. They were just so gullible.
"Do you guys want to know where this wonderland is?" Hazel, Onyx, and Electric Blue eyes snapped towards Kakashi's face in less than a second.
"It's closer to you than you can imagine." He said as they leaned in closer.
"It's."
Closer.
"It's"
Their faces were centimeters apart as the wide eyes grew wider and wider.
"Under the table."
The genin stared at him before hastily turning the table over and staring in complete shock.
"You were right Kakashi-sensei." Naruto stared amazed.
There, in all its glory, were shaped blobs of gum in every shape in size.
Sakura and Naruto quickly got on their hands and knees as they picked out the delicious gums and chewed slowly.
"This one is wet!" Naruto said disgusted as he scraped the gum from the table.
Kakashi contained his laughter and turned to Naruto.
"What a lucky boy you are Naruto!" Kakashi said excitedly. "That one came with a delicious flavoring spray!"
Naruto's eyes grew wide as he bragged to Sasuke and Sakura about his special gum.
"Sasuke you have to try this!" Sakura said excitedly as she used her straw to scrape off a particularly stubborn one.
He glared at her.
"I will not get on my hands and knees for a piece of gum, no matter how free it is." He stated bluntly although his eyes lingered on a certain piece of mint flavored gum that looked extra wet and juicy.
"Fine, I'll get it for you." Sakura smiled as she quickly peeled the piece of gum off of the table and handed it to Sasuke.
He looked at her strangely before he popped it into his mouth.
Kakashi stared at the excited genin and the used pieces of gum that they were excitedly chewing.
His eyes started to water as he tried his hardest to contain his laughter.
"Are you crying Kakashi-sensei?" Sakura asked worriedly.
Naruto waved his hand around.
"Nah, don't worry about him, he's just sad that we took all the gum and left none for him." Naruto said easily as he popped the last piece of gum into his mouth.
"Kakashi-sensei, I would give you some, but eating used gum is disgusting." Sakura said sadly as she watched her sensei cry uncontrollably.
