I'm going on holiday for about a week, so I decided to post something to hold you over until then. Enjoy!

"So, Naruto, are you going to raise or call?"

Naruto had a huge grin on his face as he pushed all his chips to the middle of the table.

"I'm going to raise, you old hag, and you don't have any chips left, so I win."

Tsunade frowned deeply as she realized he was right. She would have to find something else to bet. What did she have, though? She racked her brain for any ideas, and when she found one, she got up from her seat and returned with what appeared to be a live animal.

"What the heck is that!?"

"It's a weasel, baka, and if you were smart, you'd know that he's worth a lot of money."

Naruto eyed the weasel warily, then took it out of her arms and placed it awkwardly in the pot.

"Ok, let's see who won."

Itachi felt soooo loved. The wench was betting him in a POKER GAME for crying out loud. Itachi's life had officially hit rock bottom.

Ooooooh, there's a shiny rock!

Itachi mentally slapped himself silly for this last thought. His beast-side was taking over! Soon he would want to be petted, and gasp, oh the horror, wag his tail!

The world is coming to an end!

So Itachi goes to Naruto next, obviously. Poor Tsunade; no luck. But for who he goes to after that, I will take votes, but I have problems writing Temari, Tenten, Iruka, and Sasuke. I really suck at writing them, but Sasuke because I either make him into "secretly–soft–and-sensitive-guy" or "evil-with-a-rather-large-stick-shoved-up-his-butt-guy."

Anyway, but I have decided (mainly because I was bored) to write a little short on Sasuke. This is totally separate from the main story.

Itachi's leg hurt.

No, not because he had injured himself, but because a certain blonde baka was holding him up like a piece of trash by his right hind leg.

"What am I supposed to do with it, baachan?" Naruto said to Tsunade while shoving Itachi in front of her face.

"It's not an 'it,' Naruto, it's a HE. At least I think so…"

Itachi's forelegs dangled over his head. Wasn't this fun… His ears perked at a rustling of a nearby bush.

It was that weak little brother of his, no doubt come the challenge the "dobe." Itachi attempted to cross his arms with contempt, but failed miserably. Paws just don't function correctly, and he was getting a headache from all of the blood rushing to his head. He decided instead to glare icily.

Yes, that would do.

Sasuke came up behind Naruto, and paused to listen to the conversation.

"So its, his, name is-" Naruto began, but paused at Tsunade's strange behavior. She was flailing her arms wildly, motioning him to stop, because even if Naruto couldn't see Sasuke, she could.

"Are you ok? I was just going to make sure its, his, name is Itachi," Naruto said with a confused look on his face.

"I must avenge!!!" The scream was heard from the Uchiha, and Naruto turned around, surprised.

Sasuke's eyes had gone red, and he was foaming at the mouth.

I can SO see him foaming at the mouth. Haha…like a rabid dog…

Anywho, like I said before, this just a random little… random…thing… so yeah, this never actually took place in my story.

Ja ne!
