Ch. 7: The Disappearance and the Scheme
"Augh!" Megumi screamed in frustration as she buried her hands in her hair and began tugging at the raven-colored strands. Sakura tapped her on the shoulder. "What's wrong?"
Megumi stopped pulling her hair, feeling it fall down her shoulders once again. "That stupid line thing is broken and apparently it's been broken before. Poop."
"Oh."
"Never mind. So what happened to everyone while I was gone?" she asked as they walked from her office.
Sakura shrugged her shoulders. "Actually, I don't know. One minute they were here and the next, they weren't."
She raised a brow. "They're up to something. Wanna lay a trap?"
Sakura nodded. "Sure."
"Well, my co-conspirator, you get the trap set up and I'll get the bait. Meet back here later."
"Roger."
Later….
Megumi turned to Sakura. "Got the trap?" She nodded. "Yeah. Got the bait?"
Megumi smiled and made an armful of objects appear. "Yup."
Sakura smiled, obviously pleased when she froze. "I hear footsteps. Hide." she hissed. Megumi nodded and poofed the two of them out of sight.
The group walked into the room, talking amongst themselves when they saw something in the middle of the free area in the studio. Kakashi gasped. "Icha Icha Violence the movie! Limited edition, director's cut!"
Sasuke's eyes bugged slightly while he mentally salivated. "Tomatoes?"
"A millipede…"
Tenten's eyes gleamed as something caught her eye. "A new weapon!"
Akamaru barked. Translation: new toys.
"Ramen!"
Neji, Hinata, Kiba stared at the objects on the floor when they realized something. "Wait! It might be a-" A wire was tripped. "AHHHHH!"
Neji, Hinata, Kiba mentally slapping their foreheads as they felt random body parts pressed against them as they dangled in the air. "Trap." They finished, staring in disdain at the net they were caught in.
Megumi and Sakura appeared from our hiding place, a frown on their faces. "And where exactly have you been?"
Sasuke blew the hair from his face. "Hunting down the dobe."
Sakura blinked. "Why?"
Kakashi glared spitefully at the blonde boy. "Because apparently, he can't stop being bored unless he annoys the shit out of everyone."
"Oh." Megumi said, suddenly feeling very sorry for them.
Sakura smiled sheepishly, cutting the net open and helping her friends out. "Sorry guys." Megumi nodded in agreement. "We thought you were trying to get us. We're really sorry."
Hinata smiled. "I-it's ok."
Tenten shrugged. "I guess if everyone left all of a sudden, I'd get suspicious too."
Sakura and Megumi smiled gratefully. "Thanks."
Naruto blinked. "We can keep this stuff, right?" he said clutching the ramen protectively.
"Sure." Megumi replied.
Kakashi smiled. "Who wants to watch a movie?!" he asked, waving his new gift in the air.
The shinobi all balked. "No!"
Megumi laughed sheepishly. "Heh heh. See you next time."
