Naruto: The Life

Chapter 4:

Tongue Twister

Orochimaru reappeared somewhere dark.

And slimy.

He tried to move, but couldn't.

Then, he tried to breathe.

Only a stream of bubbles came out.

Then the big idea hit him

He was jammed in the toilet.

At the corner of his eye, he saw Kabuto, dry and eating an apple, watching him suffer in the toilet.

Orochimaru tried to say 'don't just stand there, help me!' but the only thing that came out was a stream of bubbles.

Kabuto just took another bite out of the apple and watched him casually.

Kabuto was looking at Orochimaru, whose legs were straight up in the air and head was in the toilet. Let him take care of himself.

He was the big snake guy, after all.

He took another bite out of his apple, oblivious of the fact that he would be slapped with Orochimaru's tongue extremely soon.

After a few hours, Orochimaru escaped.

And he was mad.

He walked over to the living room, dripping with the contents of a toilet.

Kabuto was watching TV and eating Smartfood cheddar cheese popcorn.

Kabuto dropped a kernel and got up to pick it up, but a slimy, wet, black boot slammed down on it with a sickening splish.

Kabuto looked up.

Standing over him was Orochimaru, and a very angry Orochimaru at that.

"H-hi," Kabuto stuttered nervously.

Kabuto was thrown into the toilet a billion times with Orochimaru's tongue.

Finally, Orochimaru threw him on the floor and stormed away.

The Next Day…

Kabuto woke up and stared at his alarm clock in disbelief.

It was 12:00! How could he have slept so late?!

He hurried to Orochimaru's room and found him with his arm hanging off the bed and saying something about riding ponies.

"Orochimaru! It's 12:00!" Kabuto shrieked as he shook Orochimaru impatiently.

"So?" he replied stupidly.

"It's late!"

"Leave it for later."

"But…!"

Kabuto patted Orochimaru lightly on the face.

"C'mon, buddy…"

The small pats turned to slaps.

Finally, Orochimaru woke up.

"What? What?"

"It's 12:00!"

Orochimaru grinned.

"No, it isn't, it's still 5:00. I put your alarm clock seven hours ahead."

"Oh…" Kabuto said, trying to hide his anger.

"Well?" Orochimaru blurted out. "Aren't you going to leave?!"

Kabuto hurried out and slammed the door behind him, gasping.

It was time for school (and in this case, teaching dumb kids which way is up), so Orochimaru got into his car and started up the engine.

Kabuto hurried to his window and Orochimaru reeled down the window.

"What?"

"You forgot your lunch."

Kabuto dangled an AirLok lunch sack in his face.

Orochimaru takes it and pulls out of the driveway.

Orochimaru arrived at the school and opened the doors.

He walked down the hallway and as he got closer to his classroom, noises got louder.

When he opened the doors, he saw that all the kids were gathered in a circle, talking.

At the moment they saw him, they disappeared and reappeared in their desks.

He closed the door behind him and walked up to his desk.

A few kids giggled.

He gave them a look, and sat down.

"Yiiiiii!"

He got up and looked at his chair.

Pins were scattered all over it facing upward.

The whole class burst into laughter.

Orochimaru tried to hide his bleeding butt and pushed the pins off his seat.

"Whoever did this goes to the Principal's office!" Orochimaru yelled.

All the kids shrugged as if to say 'we didn't do it, your pins fell of your desk and onto your seat'.

Orochimaru frowned.

"We're going to have Kunai throwing lessons today."

Some kids cheered, some kids protested.

Everybody was gathered outside.

"Now," Orochimaru said. "Here's an example."

He threaded his fingers into his other fingers, until Anko raised her hand.

"What?"

"Do we have to do that?"

All the kids laughed.

Orochimaru tried to keep himself calm.

"No, we don't."

Anko raised an eyebrow. He was supposed to get annoyed.

Orochimaru tied a larger-than-life rope around his waist.

Anko raised her hand again.

"What?"

"Why're you tying yourself up? You're not a criminal."

There was more laughter.

Frankly, Orochimaru didn't know.

"Just watch," was all he can say.

He ran by the kids (some kids tried to trip him) and threw a kunai at a sack of potatoes (which was supposed to be a target).

Anko raised her hand.

"Yes?" said Orochimaru, proud of himself.

"D'ya think we'll ever face an evil sack of potatoes?"

All the kids burst into raving mad laughter.

"Alright, that's it!!!" Orochimaru yelled.

He tried to grab Anko with his tongue, but Anko dodged it and ran in continuous circles around a tree.

Obviously, his tongue followed her.

Then, Anko ducked under it and Orochimaru's tongue tied to the tree.

Angrily, Orochimaru untied his tongue and followed Anko with it.

Anko dodged it and took a sharp turn and dodged the tongue again.

Kids cheered her on.

She made a circle, then jumped over Orochimaru's tongue, then ran

In the circle she had made earlier.

Than she jumped into the crowd of kids.

Orochimaru's tongue follows her, clearing out kids.

Then Anko jumps into the middle of the tongue and jumps out of it.

She backs away from it, satisfied.

Orochimaru stopped, shocked.

His tongue was in a knot!

He tried to undo it, but it was pretty tight.

Anko pointed laughed at him, along with the other kids.

A kid named Sasuke gave Anko a high five.

All the other kids gave her high fives, too.

Then, all the kids got into the school bus and Anko told the driver 'we're out early'.

The bus drove away, out of sight.

The only thing Orochimaru could do was watch.
