Disclaimer: When you're done with this…You'll be glad I don't own Naruto
The campers stood in the field waiting for Tsunade to announce the game that they were going to be playing.
"Alright, listen up everyone." Tsunade said. Everyone quieted down waited for her to continue. "I will now tell you the game and the rules to that game you will be playing today." Tsunade paused for dramatic effect. "Capture the Flag!" She said. Some people began to murmur.
"Capture the Flag? You said that we would be playing games that would make us sore!" One kid yelled from the audience.
"Yeah! That game is for little kids!" Another agreed. Tsunade smirked and waited for people to stop talking.
"Are you done?" She asked when the finished. "This is no ordinary game of capture the flag. The original rules do apply, but in this game of capture the flag you will do whatever you can to get that flag. That includes tackling. Think of it as a game of football. The moment the game gets too out of hand will the moment that Shizune or I will end the game. Is that understandable?" People nodded. "Good. There will be twelve members on each team because we will be joining counselor groups together. The first game will take place in twenty minutes. Counselors you were given the times in which you will approximately be playing. Don't be late."
"Can you believe this?" Ino said scrunching up her face as they began to walk away from the field. "We're going to get so dirty."
"Ne, it's not that bad really." Tenten said. "A little dirt never killed anyone." She added.
"Tch, yeah right." Ino mumbled.
"What time are we going to be playing?" Sakura asked the two counselors behind them.
"After dinner." Hisa mumbled. "I suggest you don't eat much." She added just a little louder.
"And just guess who we'll be playing against." Kimiko said.
"Deidara and Sasori's team?" Hinata asked looking at them over her shoulder. Kimiko nodded.
"Well then…This just got so much more interesting." Tenten said as she smirked at the newly gained information.
"Do you really think the girls are going to tackle us?" Naruto asked his arms behind his head.
"I know Kimiko will, un." Deidara said though he said it with a smile as though he was remembering something.(1)
"I doubt my Hinata-chan will hurt me. So I'm ok." Naruto said.
"Hn. I wouldn't take Hinata so lightly, Uzumaki." Neji told his friend. "She might surprise you. Tenten definitely won't stop at anything to take any of us down."
"I think you're wrong about Hinata-chan, Neji." Naruto said. Neji just rolled his eyes. "What about Ino?" Shikamaru sighed.
"If you're lucky she won't care therefore she'll just stand there. But since we lack in the area of luck, she'll kick our ass." Shikamaru said.
"What no 'troublesome'?" Sasuke asked his hands stuffed in his pockets.
"It was implied."
"And Sakura?" Naruto questioned.
"We all know how stupid it is to ask that." Sasuke said. "She'll probably be one of the worse."
"You know what that means right, un?" Deidara asked. "We have to beat our girlfriends."(2)
"That sounds horrible." Sasori said breaking the silence that had fallen amongst the group. "You really couldn't have put it any other way? You're as stupid as your art." He said walking away. Deidara glared after him.
"You guys get the point. Remember after dinner."
It was just before the group headed down to the field to begin their own game of Capture the Flag. On their way down they looked at the score board just outside the field. The boys were a head by one game.
"Hell yeah! We're winning!" Naruto yelled pumping his fist into the air.
"I wouldn't get too happy Naruto. You still have to go against us." Sakura said. "And it won't be easy to get that flag."
"Ne, Sakura-chan. No need to sound so evil." Naruto said a nervous smile on his face.
"Come on you guys, let's go already." Ino said beginning to walk away from the board.
Down upon the field the two groups were separated, the boys on the left and the girls on the right. The field was divided evenly down the middle and on each side were two areas marked off, one in each corner. In the right corner on each side was a colored flag waiting to capture. In the left corner on each side was marked off as the 'jail' that was needed for every game of Capture the Flag.
The twelve boys and twelve girls all stood in their respective spots waiting for the game to begin.
"Alright you guys. I hope you're ready for an intense game of Capture the Flag." Tsunade said leaning back in her chair. "Begin!" The whistle was blown and not a single person on the field moved any.
"I say we team up and go for it." Kimiko said.
"Screw that!" Some red headed girl yelled at her before running across the line only to get knocked down by some dark haired guy on the other side. The girl groaned as she was then hauled off to the jail.
"What a useless piece of—" Hisa began but was cut off short.
"Put that negativity into keeping them off our side." Ino said. Hisa 'hmphed' before turning her attention back to the boys. And at once four or five on each side ran across the lines to try and capture the flag.
"Damn it!" Tenten yelled just before hitting the ground. Her and her capture rolled in the grass for a few moments before the stopped. The person above her chuckled slightly. "It's not funny, Neji!" She yelled at him once her head started to clear.
"I wasn't laughing." He said innocently though there was a hint of amusement in his voice. Neji got up and pulled Tenten up along with him.
"Now I have to go to jail…" Tenten mumbled.
"That's right, now get going." Neji said. Tenten stuck her tongue out at him as she walked toward the jail area.
Minutes passed and no one had come close to getting the flag on either side of the field.
"Man this is troublesome." Shikamaru grunted staring up at the sky. Ino laughed from above him.
"You weren't even trying lazy ass. You practically stood still waiting for someone to haul you off to the jail." Ino said. Shikamaru rolled his eyes as he stood up.
"Doesn't mean you had to tackle me." He said. Ino rolled her eyes this time and proceeded to take the lazy boy the jail.
"Alright! Way to go Ino!" Sakura cheered a little ways from the blonde.
On the other side of the field, Hinata took a hard hit to the ground, but some guy from the other counselor group.
"I'm going to kill that bastard!" Naruto roared after seeing it. Sasuke put his hand up to stop his friend from running and starting a fight. "What the hell teme! Did you see that? Let me hit him…" Sasuke gave him a look. Naruto heaved a sigh mumbling numerous of coherent things under his breath.
The game went on and not a single person on either side was clean. They may not have had felt too bad, but they all knew they'd be feeling it later. Thank kami for adrenaline.
"This is getting ridiculous." Kimiko mumbled upon being released from the jail.
"Why don't we all just go for the flag…They can't get all of us." Said one girl from the other counselor group. Kimiko looked at the guys on the other side; they were down, two players…Since they were in jail currently. Whereas on the girl's side they had all their players. The odds were working for them. They could keep two people guarding the flag while the rest of them went for the flag on the boy's side.
The boys watched as the girls all whispered things to each other and suddenly looked like they were going to just go for it.
"What are they doing now?" Naruto asked his eyes squinting slightly. Deidara smirked.
"One of you go get the flag the moment they start running. Preferably the fastest." Deidara said to them. "And here they come, un." The girls on the other side began to run toward the boys all of them trying to get toward the flag, there was no way they could get stopped.
The guys remaining took down the girls just outside of the box to where the box was.
Sakura groaned as she looked at how close she was to that stupid flag. How disappointing, she thought. As her head cleared slightly she tried to find the raven haired boy but noticed he was no where to be seen from where she was laying, but that only meant one thing.
"Damn it." She muttered.
Kimiko hit the ground hard for what seemed like the hundredth time that game, and go figure the person that just so took her down was Deidara, he smirked down at her.
"I'm really starting to hate you." She said no hint of joking in her words. At that moment the whistle was blown and Kimiko was hoping more than anything that it was for them.
"After an hour and twenty minutes, this game has concluded with the victory going to the boys!" Tsunade said into her megaphone. Kimiko groaned and her head fell back into the grass.
"Who got the damn flag?" She asked looking up at Deidara. The smirk never leaving his face.
"Uchiha."
"Figures."
Hinata sighed as she sat up slowly Naruto ran toward her and helped her up.
"Are you alright, Hinata?" He asked. Hinata smiled.
"I'm fine Naruto-kun." She answered. That could very well be translated into 'I'm okay until this adrenaline starts to fade.'
Neji looked down at Tenten a smirk on his face. Tenten opened one eye and glared up at him.
"Are you going to get up, Tenten?" He asked her.
"I think I'll sleep here tonight." Neji shook his head at her before bending down and grabbing both her arms and pulling her up. "Ne, you suck Hyuuga." She said once standing straight.
"Really? Then explain how my side won." Tenten growled. Neji could only chuckle.
Ino looked at the boy sitting in the grass staring up at the sky.
"You guys just won and you still find the sky to be more interesting." She said placing her hands on her hips.
"Tch, I didn't really care much for the game to begin with." He answered standing up slowly like an old man. And after all the hits Ino gave him he probably felt like an old man.
"We're really dirty." She mumbled. Shikamaru shrugged stuffing his hands in his pockets.
"How's your back?" He asked her. Ino scrunched up her face. Now that he mentioned it…(3)
"Hurts like hell." Then she got a good idea. "Maybe you can give me a back rub?" Shikamaru sighed.
Sakura walked over to the raven haired boy and pushed him slightly. Sasuke gave her a very annoyed look, but it didn't faze her…much.
"You know what sucks about you?" She asked.
"Hn?"
"The fact that you didn't just run past all us girls in the beginning of the game to get that stupid flag. You waited until the very end when we all ran up there to get your flag…Why?" Sakura asked.
"Hn. I had to wait until you got tired." He said casually. "Even if that meant getting caught." Sakura rolled her eyes.
"Wonderful." She mumbled. "Oh by the way. Remember when I punched you?" She asked. Sasuke remembered too well.
"Yeah."
"Well I hope it hurt." She said. Sasuke smirked.
"It didn't." Man could he lie, it hurt like hell. Sakura glared slightly.
"You know what that means?"
"What?"
"You owe me a back massage…I really good one at that." Sasuke sighed, he doubt he'd lie his way out of this one.
The days event ended and the boys had won Capture the Flag and everyone had retired to their cabins to get cleaned and to sleep through the majority of the pain until they woke up that is. And they all knew that the next day was going to be hell.
(1)-originally this was going to be a pretty naughty line…but I deleted it. Ahaha. Maybe next time.
(2)-I couldn't resist…Maybe you laughed…Or maybe you thought it was a horrible. In all honesty…I found it hilarious.
(3)-Has that ever happened to you where, you forget about the pain then someone brings it up and you realize…It really hurts.
The girls lost…Well at least they put up a good fight. I feel like this was little rushed. I don't know…I was sick…So yeah. But I hope you liked it, because I had fun writing it. Even though I wasn't feeling great!
