Sorry for the long update...! I have a distinct lack of common sense and initiative-ness. Yeah...a non-existent social life does that to you, but anyways...I'm falling in love with ScarletImperfectionist's reviews. Seriously. They make me happy. ^_^ You peeps should learn from her. -Winkwinknudgenudge- Jkjk...!XD

Warnings:
Hmm...'tis slightly confusing chapter and lacks plot too...Oh woe is me. Poor attempts at creating humor...as well as some swearing by Elaine and Nick.
Do not flame in reviews.
Don't read if you don't like it.
Constructive criticism is welcomed.
Unbeta-ed.
Irregular updates (If there are any) in the future. I do not own Naruto, but I own Elaine, Nick, and the plot of course.
Where we left off:
We had barely started laughing from the sheer craziness of it all, when a kunai whizzed through the air and landed where my head was a second ago. We immediately sobered up and turned to the direction where we thought the kunai came from. Shocked, our eyes widened as we stared at the person behind us.
"You...!"

Back to the present...
xx
There stood a 20 something-ish guy who wore a bandanna with the Konoha forehead protector sewed on it. And although a pair of dark sunglasses and a mask covered most of his face, his body language just screamed, "Bad guy alert, bad guy alert!" There were two other guys standing behind him as well, but my eyes were especially drawn to the one on his left. Silver hair...oversized glasses...could that possibly be...?

He sneered at us. "Oops...my hand slipped."
My eye twitched again. But before I had the chance to say anything, Nick bristled in anger and shouted at him. "Is that all you can say?! You almost had her head off, you bastard! Apologize to her right now!"
The leaf genin responded by gripping the front of Nick's shirt and pulled him forwards. "You want to say that again, punk?"
"Oh, so you're a deaf bastard now?! Well I'll gladly say it a hundred times and more! Don't think you're so high and mighty just because you're a ninja! I'll have you know, I can beat you in a match anytime, anywhere!"
At that, the leaf genin raised an eyebrow as his friends started smirking among themselves. "Is that so...? Hn...Well then, let's test this theory of yours, shall we?" He said, as his grip on Nick tightened.
Luckily, the guy with the silver hair stopped him before things got worse. "Let him go, Yoroi. I apologize for my teammate's rude behaviour."
"Tch...what ever you say, Kabuto. You got lucky this time, punk. But don't expect any mercy the next time you tick me off. Let's go." Saying that, he pushed Nick away before retrieving the kunai.
Sarcastically, Nick called out to their retreating backs. "Toodles...!"
xx
...I swear I just saw them sweatdrop simultaneously. But wait a second...K-Kabuto?! What the hell is he doing here? Oh that's right, now I remember! Akadou Yoroi, Tsurugi Misumi and Yakushi Kabuto are one of the teams from Konoha who entered the chunnin exams! Huh...who knew memorizing unimportant names would come in handy one day...

Unsatisfied, Nick continued to mumble under his breath. If one tried hard enough, you can hear snippets of his conversation with himself such as "rude bastards..." and "gonna hand their asses back to them one day, I swear..." every once in a while.
Suddenly, he burst out, "Who the heck do they think they are?!"
I chuckled softly. "Just let it go, fisher...It's not like they hurt me anyways."
"That's not the point...!"
"Then what is?"
-Mumble mumble-
"Nick...?"
"...I said I'm going to stand up for you whether you like it or not."
"Okaay...But I don't need anyone standing up for me thank-you-very-much."
"Yes you do"
"No I don't"
"Yes you do"
"No I don't"
"No you don't"
"Yes I do, and that's final!"
"......"
"Shut up, Nick. Just shut up."
-Stifles laughter- "I didn't say anything, but...whatever you say fisher."
"Aargh...!" -Stomps off-
"Hey, where are you going?"
"Away from your insanity and towards civilization!"
"What the heck are you talking about? Hey Elaine, wait for me...!
xx
Sigh...It seems I have a case of the writer's block too. Blame Youtube, it rot-ed my brain... "You and me both, brother." Aargh...! How the hell do some people manage to write almost ten thousand words or so on only one chapter and I can barely manage a thousand words! "Gah! Pisses me off!" (Not really, I just need to rant off some steam for a while thanks) Oh well, see you guys next time!
