This is my new fanfic, Naruto Survivor. I am soooooo sorry for not posting in…. ummm… a really long time, but I was too lazy (my penname is ShikamaruThePineapple after all). Now I hope I can be able to keep this one up or else you can all send me evil reviews about my laziness. I will not ramble any longer, so here's my new story. Oh, and buahahaha, it's a Shikamaru-centered fanfic.
Survivor: The Lost Naruto Tapes
Chapter 1: Getting There
Shikamaru couldn't believe his excellent luck. Hokage Tsunade had picked him of all the ninjas to host their version of Island Survivor. Now all he had to do was convince everyone to go… on a lovely island vacation and cruise. He decided to begin the recruitments, and then he'd meet with the judges.
He decided to try the Sand-nins first since their apartment was closest. (Tsunade wants all the ninjas in town to go not just Leaf-nins.) About two seconds after he knocked Kankurou opened the door, yelled 'LOOK YOU FRICKIN' GIRL SCOUTS; I TOLD YOU ALREADY: I DO NOT WANNA BUY AN EGGPLANT!', and slammed the door. He knocked again, and this time Temari answered slightly hysterically.
"Oh hello, Shikamaru. Is something wrong? Is it Gaara? What did he do this time? How bad was it? Oh, God I don't wanna move again!" Temari said frantically.
"Oh, umm nothing's wrong Temari. I just have to tell you all something. Can I come in?" Shikamaru reassured her.
Shikamaru came in and waited until all the Sand-nins were seated even Karasu who was missing his bikini wax appointment (though why a male puppet would need a bikini wax I have no idea and don't particularly want to know).
"Okay, this'll only take five minutes tops. Basically, Konoha is inviting you and the rest of the young ninjas to go on a 'lovely island vacation and cruise'. We all hope you'll go." Shikamaru said in another of his famous 'say-it-all-in-one-breath-until-he-turns-blue' talks.
"Oooh, free vacation," Kankurou said.
"Sounds fun and we don't want to insult the Leaf-nins who kindly invited us," answered Temari.
"It'll improve the color of my wood grain complexion," said Karasu.
"Awww man! Do we have to go? You know how I burn easily," Gaara whined though he knew they would go anyway despite his protests.
They all looked up and realized Shikamaru had left while they were talking about it to continue recruiting.Then, they all started packing.
The day of the cruise to the island had finally arrived. Shikamaru made a list of all who were going, to give to the judges they would all meet on the island. The list:
People Going On Survivor:
1.Me
2.Naruto's Team
3.My Team
4.Neji's Team
5.Sand-nins
6.Kiba's Team
7. Nameless Sound-nins
8.Itachi and Orochimaru who stowed away on the boat
Shikamaru looked at everyone. The idiots had no idea they would be seen on TV by millions. He laughed at them quietly, while waving at all the hidden cameras.
The boat left harbor quickly, shaking Itachi and Orochimaru in their hiding place which just happened to be under the bed in Neji's room (Itachi who had a thing for Neji had sort of planned it that way. Ick what a dirty pervert he is).
"Why are we here again?" asked Orochimaru who had no idea that Itachi was actually the leader and not him.
"Because, they didn't bother to invite us on their little vacation and more importantly, Neji's going," Itachi answered patiently.
"…….stupid Neji….." Orochimaru muttered softly so Itachi wouldn't hear.
Meanwhile on deck, Naruto was busy making a fool of himself.
"I WON'T LOSE TO ANY OF YOU!" he yelled loudly (hmmmm… déjà vu? Most likely).
Everyone else just rolled their eyes and got back to relaxing. They would have quite an unpleasantsurprise when they got to the island.
Okay, end of first chapter. There are lots of surprises to come later, so keep reading. Oh, yeah and I need two other people to be judges, so please review saying anything about the story so far and if you want to be a judge. (I'll call you whatever you want even TheDancingPotatoChipFormerlyKnownAsElvis.)
