Chapter 2
Naruto awoke that night with a splitting headache. Some very ticked off squirrels began throwing acorns at his head. He managed to get his head unstuck from the tree in a matter of a few hours. He got back to his apartment and looked at a clock he hadn't already impaled with a kunai. It was midnight. He climbed into bed and didn't even bother to take his orange outfit off.
Naruto woke up with hunger clawing at his stomach. He hadn't eaten yesterday. On top of that he hadn't packed and he was leaving in 30 minutes. He grabbed an instant ramen in a cup and shoved it into the microwave and set it for 2 minutes. He then rushed into his room and grabbed assorted items and stuffed them in his bag. The microwave alarm went off and rushed back into the kitchen. He didn't even bother to use chopsticks and just inhaled it. He rushed into his room, again, and finished packing. He ran out the door to avoid yesterday's accident.
"Dammit, where the hell is Naruto?" asked Sakura.
"Why question, we all know he's always late," said Shino, as he appeared out of nowhere.
"AH!" exclaimed Sakura, Kiba, Hinata, and Sasuke. "Where the hell did you come from!"
"Where do any of us come from?" inquired Shino mysteriously
"You know, I really hate you sometimes…" said Kiba.
"You know what, screw this, let's go without Naruto," said Sakura angrily.
"No, we shouldn't leave without him," said Hinata very quietly. Everyone looked at her. "I mean you know how bad he is at directions, he'd never make it," she said quickly. She didn't want them to suspect anything…
"Fine, I'll give him 5 minute, that's it!" demanded Sakura.
As if on cue, Naruto came running down the road. "Speak of the devil," muttered Sasuke.
"Sorry I'm late, guys… again. The weirdest thing happened, I woke up with my head stuck in a tree and some squirrels said some very unkind things," said Naruto.
"Hehe… yeah… weird," muttered Sakura. "Well, we should get going," she said as they started walking along the trail.
"Hey thanks for waiting by the way," said Naruto happily.
"Thank Hinata, she's the one who said we should wait for you," replied Sakura. Hinata's face turned fire engine red. Her legs felt weak.
"Wow thanks, Hinata, you're really a good friend," the number one, hyperactive, knucklehead ninja said (sorry, just had to do it :D ).
'Friend? I'm Naruto's friend?' Hinata's legs gave out all together and she fell backwards. Naruto, who had been right next to her, caught her in his arms. Everything went black.
What did you think? What did you like and didn't you like? By the way, if your wondering why chapter 1 and 2 are up at the same time, I went to the keys for spring break with my laptop but forgot the internet connections.
