((Hey already two reviews! Sweet! And yes I'll make the chapters longer, I just got really lazy.))
Thump. Lightly the foot touched the branch of the tree, but not long before it quickly shot off to fly once again.
Shikamaru and his team had set off on their journey, the forest remained quiet, but not the people in it… "LET'S DO IT! LET'S GO SAVE GAARA-KUN FROM THE EVIL GERMS!" Rock Lee exclaimed as she raced 50 yards ahead of the rest of the group.
I wonder if he swiped some of Tsunade-sama's sake...Thought a sleepy Shikamaru as he almost missed the branch he was aiming for. "How troublesome…" he lightly muttered. "First I have to go on a mission…with you guys, to protect that…girl?" he shook his head. "Not my day."
"You mean Tamari? Right?" Said a confident Kiba, he was having fun taunting Shikamaru. "The one you fought in the Chuunin exams three years ago?"
Shikamaru shot him a glance, but kept moving.
"K-Kiba, that wa-wasn't nice..." Hinata said quietly, so it was barley heard over the wind.
"Hinata did you say something?" The ignorant Kiba looked over at her, she just shook her head.
-Later that day, it was around sundown and the ninja's were setting up camp for the night.-
Hinata was the one that suggested the camp, but since she was so soft spoken only a few had heard her, and had to explain to the rest the idea that she had, after a few complaints by Lee to keep going they stopped under the cover of a few tree's to protect them from the rain and the spying eyes of other ninja's.
Each of the group sat down when Shikamaru spoke up. "I'd hate to say this but we're going to have to get up early tomorrow." He sounded sad that he'd said the words he announced to the group.
((Pause- Man I hate writers block, I'm staring at this page with a drunken expression on my face, damn I need to think of something!- ONWARD!))
They went to sleep quite quickly, espially Shikamaru who could fall asleep pretty much anywhere ((LIKE ME!)) The last to finally fall asleep was Kiba, for Akamaru was nibbling at his feet to go for a walk, but finally gave up.
-The next morning-
Everyone was groaning when they were waking up, except Lee who was already doing laps.
Hinata woke up to the feeling of pressure and as she opened her pearl-like eyes she saw what the pressure was, Kiba in his sleep had wrapped his arms around Hinata. At this sight Hinata started to blush so deep she looked like a tomato. "K-Kiba-kun, please wake up." She didn't really want to push him away but everyone was starting to look. And when he didn't wake up, she pushed him, but a bit too hard and he rolled into a tree.
Hinata gasped at what she accidently did, and Kiba groaned slightly. "Akamaru…five more minutes…you have a doggy door, let yourself out.." he said in a half-sleep daze before opening his eyes.
He looked at the people standing over him. " why are you guys in my bedroom…?" he said rubbing his eyes, it wasn't till after that he finally remembered he wasn't in his room but in fact in the middle of a forest, on a mission. "Oh."
It was Lee who finally broke the silence. "ONWARD! COME MY FRIENDS!" He said already on a branch above them, bouncing around like a hyper puppy. "Let's make it there by tonight!"
"But Lee…" Shikamaru said with a bored tone in his voice. "It takes at least two more days to reach the Land of the Sand…"
"Then let's get going!" without making sure they were following he leapt and ran towards their mission.
((sorry to end it like that, its late and I got math due tomorrow.))
