I can't seem to check my traffic, so review, or I won't know that you were reading this.
I actually don't like Sakura that much, so I have no clue as to why I decided to write this.
Also, I have to apologize to the unsigned reviewer ^^ (), who had reviewed earlier. I had dedicated the last chapter to my epic little sister and vanillasalt, so this chapter is dedicated to ^^ ().
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or YuGiOh.
Kagegakure was a strong village. It was a very strong village, and was very famous. Its main exports (other than ninja) were games, including the world-famous game "Duel Summons".
A minion-ninja approached his leader. "Sir, we are about to send out all the invitations. The tournament needs to start soon."
The leader did not turn around. "Did I tell you to start?"
The minion-ninja panicked, although it was impossible to tell (he was wearing sunglasses). "No, sir, but… um… er…"
"Silence, fool", the leader said, still not turning around. "Would you like me to feed you to my summons?"
"Well, depends which summon…"
"The tournament shall not begin yet. I need to find out who those original five summons belonged to. Bring the head of my security forces here. I need to talk to him."
"There is no need for that, sir." A voice resounded from the walls, and a strange-looking man stepped out of a plant. "I am here, Lord Kagekage. What is your command?"
"Forty two."
"What?", the strange-looking man asked.
"You asked me a question, and I answered you.", the leader answered, as if the strange-looking man didn't understand his command.
"Sir, I did not understand your command."
"If you did not understand my command previously, that means that you had not understood my command in the past. Does that mean you understand my orders now?"
"Lord Kagekage, I don't understand your commands", said the strange-looking man, who had thoroughly lost track of the conversation by that point.
"See, my boy – that's what happened when you spoke clear Anglo-Japanese in proper tense. As I said before, forty two."
"Ohhhh, I see", said the strange-looking man. He really did see – he had taken off his minion sunglasses.
"You may go now", said the leader, gazing toward his village in the epic way that only megalomaniacs and wise old men could gaze.
"One more thing before I leave, sir. I haven't had breakfast, and forty-two is a long journey." The strange man looked toward the minion-nin.
"You can't eat the minion-nin yet, my boy. He has to check on our prisoner."
"I did that before I came here, Lord Kagekage."
"Never mind, then – you can eat him", the Kagekage said, still gazing epicly at his village.
