A/N: I was sad to see that Kyle and I didn't get many reviews, but you are forgiven…let's call it a Happy New Year's present. By the way HAPPY 2009! This chapter will be short, so please forgive me for it, but I have a lot to do at home! Omg…I just realized that I haven't updated…so sorry for the long wait but I've been so super busy and somewhat sick!

War Fire & Ice

Chapter 3:

Blackout

Recap:

The doors to the mansion burst open downstairs; the prey had now arrived.

End of Recap:

"This party is just getting started," Sakura jumped for glee as did most of the others girl.

The girls watched the brilliant green laptop with Kyle and Mathew. They watched how the boys tried to close the doors really softly but to no success because Itachi had stubbed his toe and began to dance and gave off a humph sound like the idiot he was (I honestly don't believe that, just go with it for the story. Thank you!)

The boys entered Hinata and Neji's big living room, the one that last year the boys had all been pranked in when the girls had hired a male stripper and well tricked them into thinking that something else was happening. They tried not to remember that part of last year…

Flashback:

The girls had told the guys that they had a friend that they would like them to meet, and Hinata let the guys into the house and took him to the living room where the guys were situated and the girls left…

Once Hinata had left the room completely the guy had a smirk spread across his face. That's when it all began, Shikamaru was about to ask him his name but before he could the guy started to take off his shirt.

Music started to play and the guy started to strip at the same time dance to the music. The guys were too dumbfounded, to do anything but stare.

Whoa, this guy has a nice body they all thought at the same time and dismissed it as soon as the thought it.

They all tried to leave as fast as they could…

(A/N: Sai was the stripper!)

End of Flashback:

What the girls are hearing:

"Do you think they will suspect anything," Gai asked a little frightened but excited like he usually is, at any point in time. In the last couple of months preceding the Christmas incident of last year…he has not spoken his favorite word, youthful, again!

"Nah," Sasuke said a smirk on his face, "Sakura is a little dense sometimes. Believe me all those times I have hinted to her about things… and she still doesn't get it…"

Back in Hinata's room:

Sakura gaped backed in Hinata's room at what Sasuke said.

Tsunade couldn't help laughing at Sakura's face that was adorned with an oblivious yet innocent blushing face that was just so crack up funny.

"Shut up," Sakura whispered and turned her head away from the computer screen blushing.

"Let's get this party started," Tenten said this time and snuck out of the room to do her part in plan A, hopefully not having to resort to plan B if she got caught.

Tenten walked down the stairs with a bowl that was depleted of chips, and she was going to go get a refill (at least that was the cover story.)

"What are you guys doing here," Tenten asked genuinely surprised as she walked up to her boyfriend Neji and pecked him on the cheek.

"Ohh…I asked them if they wanted to come over to play…my… Guitar Hero on the Wii," Neji rather stuttered out to his girlfriend.

"That sounds like fun, the girls and me are going to watch Sister Hood of the Traveling Pants 2," Tenten said throwing a bit of excitement into are speech.

"I thought you girls would have seen it in the theatres," Kakashi asked lifting an eyebrow.

"Stupid Ino and Sakura were being cheap by saying, 'it won't be worth it; let's just rent the stupid movie.' It just goes to show how nice my friends are," Tenten, said tactfully playing along with them.

"So why you down here?" Kankuro asked suspicious of the not so innocent girl.

"Stinking Tsunade ate all the chips. I came to get a refill," Tenten said holding out the empty yet crumby bowl in front of her for the boys to see. They still eyed her suspiciously and for some reason Gaara could see right through her but said nothing.

"Can you get me some Ten," Neji asked politely.

"Sure," Tenten said happily, "anyone else want any?"

"Yes," all the guys said at the same time.

Tenten gleefully kissed Neji on the lips once more and skipped into the kitchen where she refilled the girl's bowl of chips and poured a bowl of chips for the boys adding a little something on top of the chips. (ohhh…what is it? Me: Not telling! It's a surprise!)

"Here you guys are," Tenten said carefully carrying the two bowls of chips so that they would not touch because then that would crush their ohh so perfect idea.

"Thank you," Neji said helping his girlfriend by taking the bowl of chips from her petite hands.

"Oh by the way I was told to tell you…" Tenten began as she walked into the hallway, "that all the parents left that leaves just us in the house. Your mother kept saying that we had to keep the house spotless or we would all get it when she got back."

"Uhhh…" Neji said somewhat suspicious of his girlfriend, "where were they going?"

"They said to tell you that at the last minute a conference was scheduled in…I cannot remember where and that if you had any questions to call the number she left on the fridge." Tenten said trying to remember what Mrs. Hyuuga had actually told her…there was just too much racing around in her head for her to think clearly.

"Thanks, Tenten," Sasuke said smirking all the more.

Meanwhile the rest of the group what they were doing while Tenten was distracting the guys:

"You ready," Wolf said to Kyle.

"Umm…yeah…let the games begin," Kyle said and finished typing something very suspicious on his computer (yet again, you will find this out later!)

"I'll go complete my part of the plan," Sakura said rising up from Hinata's bed with a flashlight in hand and opened the door to Hinata's room silently and silently walked out of it.

Sakura tiptoed down the stairs and heard Tenten doing her part of the plan by distracting the guys by talking to them and so fast and silently Sakura zoomed past the living room doors into the kitchen where she panted lightly and ran out the back door.

Once out the back door she laughed lightly and continued on her journey to the side of the house with the electrical box…

With the boys:

Neji had plugged in his Wii and they had put the Guitar Hero disc in just to make the girls think that they were playing it and they begun to quietly talk amongst themselves about a plan. Sasuke left the boys, who smiled at him…Sasuke left with a flashlight!

Five minutes into planning that made no sense something happened…Gai shrieked loudly…when the lights went out!

"Blackout," Itachi smiled and said…the games have now officially begun!

End of Chapter

A/N: Now the question is: Who caused the blackout Sasuke or Sakura? Please give Kyle and me some nice reviews and the story will be updated soon, hopefully! Hope you liked this chapter, it's an opener to a lot more hectic plots!
