The Package
Disclaimer: I do not own anything you recognize
A/N: So sorry for not updating Friday. I had to go the eye doctor's, I have an eye infection because of not changing my contacts for so long because I couldn't order new ones, I had to go shopping (I hate doing that), I played Quidditch (Slytherin won and I was the beater for the first game and the seeker who got the winning snitch for the second game), I went to the roller skating rink, and Sara slept over. I had a really fun, but tiring day. Sorry for not updating Saturday or yesterday. I ended up having to run errands and do house work. I hate doing that. Some friends also camped out at my house. I kind of have an open house for my friends who have family problems. I'm a nice person, but it meant I had no time to update at all. I wasn't even able to get a start on writing this chapter. It upsets me, but I know I can probably write this chapter in like 2 hours or so because of how fast I can type and read. Well, I'd hate to take up anymore of your time, so enjoy! R&R!
Chapter Six: The Amazing Mall Adventure pt. 1 of 5(Alyssa's POV)
I woke up to yelling. It's not a good thing when you wake me up in the morning because I am not and never will be a morning person.
"KISAME! YOU HAVE TO DO YOUR DARE!" I heard Dutch yell. I looked around the tent and saw everyone was there except for Sasori, Hinata, and Itachi.
"NO! I DON'T WANT TO DO IT!" I heard Kisame protest.
"But you have to!" Sara yelled at him.
"Everyone did their dares, so you have to do yours!" Tempest yelled.
"Fine!" Kisame yelled. I sighed deeply and looked at the guys in the tent. They all wore looks of confusion, frustration, or annoyance.
"Good morning everyone." I said to those in the tent.
"Good morning." Kakashi said. He was currently playing chopsticks with Pein.
"Morning." Pein said. I was slightly amused that Kakashi and Pein were getting along and playing a game together.
"Good morning, Alyssa." Kiba said, looking up from the chess game he and Shikamaru were playing.
"Morning, Alyssa." Shikamaru greeted.
"WAKE UP YOU LAZY BUMS!" Tempest yelled at the tent and tried to turn it upside down. She was not successful, but didn't give up until Sasuke pulled her away from the tent.
"We should go to the mall today!" Dutch suggested. She was currently sitting on Shino's lap.
"After I call Jenny. My uncle texted me last night and told me that I should call Jenny and ask her to hang out with us. She's 15 and she's the daughter of two of my uncle's friends who died." I told them with my head sticking out of the tent. I climbed out and the boys followed.
"Let's go get dressed!" Sara suggested and ran up the stairs, Hidan chasing after her.
"Yo bitch! Wait for me!" He called after her. Everyone else went upstairs.
"Kakuzu! Come here!" I called to him after everyone else had gone.
"What is it?" He asked, walking over. I handed him an envelope.
"Happy Birthday!" I exclaimed and hugged him. He hugged me back and opened the envelope; there was a wad of cash in it.
"Thanks kiddo." He said and headed up the stairs. I figured that I was the only one who remembered his birthday. (A/N: Today, August 15th is actually Kakuzu's birthday. It's also Zabuza's birthday. So, Happy Birthday to both of them!) I headed up the stairs to the kitchen and started to make breakfast. I picked up my cell phone and called Jenny.
"Hello?" Jenny asked on the other side.
"Hey Jenny, it's Alyssa. It's been awhile and I was wondering if you wanted to hang out with some friends and I at the mall." I told her.
"Yeah, sure, that'd be fun. Could you maybe pick me up?" She asked.
"Yeah. You get to ride in the big black beast that is my hummer." I told her.
"Alright, sounds awesome, bye." She said, hanging up the phone. I set the phone down and put breakfast on plates for everyone.
"BREAKFAST!" I yelled into the living room and upstairs. I sat down and claimed my food before it was too late. Everyone came into the kitchen and ate their food. I went upstairs to my room to change out of my pajamas and into regular clothes. I also ran a brush through my hair and brushed my teeth. After getting ready, I ran downstairs and realized that there would be one huge problem; only three of us could drive with so many people legally. Some of the Naruto cast would have to be wedged together or in the trunk.
"We kind of have a problem, Alyssa." Tempest told me. She must've realized the same thing.
"I know, only you, Sara, and I can drive with some many people and for it to still be legal." I told her.
"How much room do you have in the cars?" Sara asked.
"My Hummer holds 10 people, the van holds 8 people, the car holds 5, the truck can hold up to 12 people if you seat them in the trunk with some people laying over others, and the pedo van can hold 15. (A/N: I actually own a pedo van, but that's because I use that van for my band equipment.)" I told her.
"I guess we use the truck, the hummer, and the pedo van." Sara said.
"I call driving the Orochimaru van!" Tempest yelled. All the Naruto cast looked at her funny.
"Orochimaru is like a pedo and I have a van, used for band equipment, that people call a pedo van because pedos use those kinds of vans to do their crimes in." I explained. They all looked at me like they understood.
"I'll take the truck, then." Sara said, sounding disappointed.
"I get Sasuke, Shino, Dutch, Naruto, Sakura, Sai, Chouji, Ino, Kisame, Kankuro, Gai, Lee, Tobi, and Zetsu." Tempest said.
"I get Pein, Sasori, Kakashi, Kiba, Shikamaru, Hinata, and Jenny." I told them.
"I get Hidan, Kakuzu, Deidara, Konan, Temari, Kurenai, Asuma, Itachi, Tenten, Neji, and Gaara." Sara said.
"YOSH! I GET THE MOST YOUTHFUL GROUP!" Lee yelled in victory.
"Tobi gets to ride with Tempest-chan!" Tobi cheered.
"Shut up!" Tempest yelled. I had no idea why she chose Gai, Lee, AND Tobi.
"Let's go!" I said, leading the way into the garage. The Hummer would have to go out before the pedo van, but the truck would be free to get out because nothing was blocking it. I pressed the button and opened the garage door.
"Okay, Lee, Gai, Tobi, Zetsu, Ino, Sai, Chouji, Kisame, Kankuro, and Sakura, you ten are in the trunk. Naruto, Dutch, and Shino, you three are in the back, and Sasuke and I are in the front." Tempest informed her passengers and they got to their respective places.
"Hidan and I are in the front, Gaara, Asuma, and Kurenai are in the back, and the rest are in the trunk." Sara told them. They all went to their places.
"Hinata, Jenny, and Sasori are in the back, Pein, Shikamaru, and Kiba in the middle, Kakashi and I in the front." I told them, opening the doors and letting them climb in. I climbed in and started the Hummer, my big black beast coming to life. I'm actually pretty short and I look even shorter driving such a massive car. I'm only 5'4" and all my guy friends are over 6'. I'm always the shortest one amongst my guy friends and they make fun of me for it. They even pick me up despite the fact I hate being close to the ground. My reason for not liking being picked up is because I'm short, I like being close to the ground. I backed out of the garage and pulled out of the driveway after making sure no one was on the road and headed to Jenny's house. Tempest would close the garage door and then we'd meet up at the mall. I hooked my phone up to blue tooth and called Jenny.
"Yes?" Jenny asked.
"I'm on my way to your house. The rest of my friends are at the mall already." I told her.
"Alright, sounds good. I'll be waiting outside." She said.
"Okay, bye bye!" I said. I then hung up the phone.
"How did you do that?" Shikamaru asked from behind me.
"It's the technology. It hooks up to my phone and uses the car as a calling device. It makes it easier to talk and drive. There are also fewer accidents because of it." I told him.
"That's great. I wish we had stuff like this in our world." Kakashi said.
"I wonder how we can get back to our world. I miss Akamaru…" Kiba said from behind Kakashi.
"Alright, be on your best behavior, we're at Jenny's house now, so behave or else." I told them, honking the horn as I pulled into the driveway. Jenny was sitting on the porch, wearing a Three Days Grace t-shirt and black jeans. Her apple red hair was down and her right eye was covered. Her face was emotionless as she got up and walked to the car.
"You're sitting next to Sasori." Kiba said as he opened the door and pointed his thumb backwards towards Sasori. Jenny nodded and climbed in, closing the door behind her.
"So how've you been Jenny?" I asked her, checking the rear view mirrors and looking out the windows to see if anyone was coming down the street.
"Just fine. What about you?" She asked, her voice monotonic.
"I've had my hands full for the past few days." I told her.
"So when were you going to tell me you had the Naruto cast over?" She asked me.
"I planned on doing it now, actually. It's not exactly the way to start a conversation." I told her. (A/N: Can you imagine trying to break the ice by bringing up the fact you have the Naruto cast over at your house? I mean, sure, it would be fun, but it would also be a little awkward. There are so many more guys than girls in Naruto, it would be awkward.)
"Well, if Sasori's not already taken, I call dibs," she said, looking over at said boy.
"You can have him. I know how much you like puppets and eternal art." I told her, my eyes not leaving the road ahead.
"Don't I get a say in this?" Sasori asked.
"No." Jenny and I responded in unison.
"Damn." He said, looking away.
"So, Jenny, how have your grandparents been?" I asked her.
"They've been good. How's your uncle?" She asked.
"Extremely busy. He's on a trip right now as we speak. He almost missed my high school graduation." I told her.
"Yeah. It really sucks that your parents couldn't see yours and my parents won't see mine." She said, her voice having a tint of sadness to it.
"Why won't your parents be able to see your graduation, Jenny?" Kiba asked. I slammed down on the break. You never ask Jenny that.
"Kiba. Never ask Jenny that question. Sasori, hug Jenny tightly right now and don't let go until I tell you." I told them. I started to drive again. I never want Jenny to relive the night her parents and little brother died. It was just as bad, if not worse, than the night I lost my parents. Sasori hugged Jenny tightly and held onto her despite her growing protests.
"Jenny, calm down. I'm doing what Alyssa asked me to do." Sasori whispered into her ear. She stopped protesting and quieted down.
"We're here!" I announced when I pulled into the parking spot. The mall was a good 20 minute drive from my house. There was little business at the mall today, in fact, it looked as if we had the whole mall to ourselves. The Naruto cast could play in the play areas, go on the roller coster, and maybe even go bungee jumping.
"Let's go." Jenny said, climbing out of the car and walking toward the mall. Everyone soon followed and I followed them after locking up the car. We saw that the others had already gone ahead inside.
"Hey! I got the security guys to let us into the play areas!" Tempest said, sounding excited. The play areas were designed for little kids, but if you behaved in the mall and were a teenager, you got to go in them whenever you wanted. My favorite play area was the one that looked like a giant hamster cage; it even had an exercise wheel!
"I'm taking some of them mini-golfing." Sara said as she walked off with the group she took in the truck. Mini-golfing at the mall was always fun; especially since it's glow golf.
"I'll take my group to the Hamster cage!" I announced, grabbing the nearest person in my group, which just so happened to be Pein, and ran off toward the hamster cage.
"Let's go, guys." I heard Jenny say and she followed me with the others. Kiba, Shikamaru, and Kakashi rushed ahead to catch up with Pein and I while Sasori and Hinata stayed behind and walked with Jenny. They were in-sync with their steps, it was crazy!
"Hello Alyssa." I heard someone say. I spun around and saw a tall guy with shoulder length brown hair and green-blue eyes standing outside my second favorite store.
"What do you want Jose?" I asked him, Pein walking to stand next to me once he heard the anger in my voice.
"Just wondering why you have the Naruto cast following you." He said, looking them over.
"They're just cosplayers, now why don't you go and rip another girl's heart out?" I asked him, even more anger in my voice.
"I don't need to rip anymore girls' hearts out. I already ripped out the one I wanted." He said, walking towards me.
"Don't come any closer." I told him, backing up.
"What are you going to do?" He asked, walking closer to me. I froze up after I couldn't back away anymore. All Pein could do was stand there in shock as Jose grabbed my chin and forced a kiss upon my lips. I pushed him away and wiped my lips on my sleeve.
"Get away from me right now." I warned him.
"Oh, so now Hinata is turning into Sakura." He mocked. He always called me a mixture of Hinata and Sakura.
"I suggest you step away from Alyssa." Pein said from the sidelines.
"What are you going to do about it, piercing face?" Jose taunted.
"This." Pein said as he punched Jose in the stomach. Jose doubled over and then got up and punched Pein in the chest. Pein merely stepped back from the blow and I stepped in between the two.
"You have problems with me, Jose. Leave my friends alone." I told him. He spit on the ground in front of me and stalked off. I sighed and turned to Pein.
"I'm sorry he ran into you." Pein said, looking at me.
"It's okay. I just didn't expect to see him here." I told him, watching as the others came up to us. Kiba, Shikamaru, Hinata, and Kakashi smiled at me and hugged me. We then climbed into the giant hamster cage play area.
