Define Dysfunction
Chapter Six: Finish Line
"So begins the final event! They sprint to the finish line! this shall test their spirit of youth!! This is a clear competition eternal rivals! Right, Kakashi?"
"Eh...sure, Gai." The silver haired man on the bleachers shrugged, boredly flipping to the next page of his book. He didn't share the gym teacher's enthusiasm.
"You'd better believe it!" He turned to the crowd and gave a thumbs up before looking to the racing track. "Now lets get this race underway!"
"Are the competitors ready?" Lee asked into his seperate microphone, as he stood besides his idol.
"Yeah, yeah! Let's just start already!" Naruto yelled into his cupped hands.
"No need to rush things, Naruto-kun!" Lee responded.
Naruto now wore orange shorts that reached past his knees and a white tank. Sasuke stood a few feet to his left, wearing similar clothing, but with black pants.
"Yosh!" Lee answered in just as loudly over the chattering crowd.
"On your marks, then..." Gai began. The bleachers began to quiet down.
Naruto noticed an unfamiliar red head sitting besides Shino and Kiba, staring at him intently.
Naruto blinked back at him, almost losing sight of the race as the announcer exclaimed "GO!"
"Eh!?" Naruto looked to his left to find the quickly retreating back of Sasuke. "Damn!"
Getting yet another late start, Naruto began to run top speed. It was easier than he thought to catch up to his rival, though...
Of course! Naruto remembered now not to eat at all before the final event...of course now his stomache was growling, but that only fueled him further to finish this so he can sit down and enjoy a nice, steaming bowl of ramen!
Besides, Naruto seemed to be in better physical condition than Sasuke...and yet they were both beginning to already lose breath, and they only ran 20 yards, this being the 100 yard dash. Still had a lot more ground to cover...
If only they were given longer than the 10 minute walk from the pool to the field to regain their energy.
"Why...don't you...give up...?" Sasuke asked besides him.
"Stop wasting...your breath...temeee..!" Naruto almost tripped. He looked down. Great. His shoe was untied.
He was just barely ahead of Sasuke on the 80 yard marker. They were both already beginning to slow down.
"Damn...need to...get in...shape..." Naruto huffed.
"Thought...you were...baka...brag enough..." Sasuke replied, a few feet behind him.
"Shut up...still gonna win..."
By this time they were both at a jog almost completely out of breath.
95...100
Naruto immediately fell to his knees. He won and he wasn't too tired to crack a smile as he looked up at Sasuke, who was leaning on his own knees, but towering above Naruto as he blocked out the sun.
"Told ya I'd win."
(Lol I'm sorry I made them seem out of shape...)
Er, well, of course he wins! He's the main character!! It was either that or come up with a dramatic tie...!
Hm...and I suppose I should put up the pairings for this in advance. If it says slight before the pairing, that means they probably won't have a lemon or do anything too explicit...probably:
Sasuke x Naruto
Kiba x Shino
Neji x Lee
Sasori x Deidara
Gaara x Haku
slight Itachi x Kisame
slight Kakashi x Iruka
onesided Hinata x Naruto (aw T.T)
onesided Sakura x Sasuke (mueheheh)
And so begins the romance (finally after six chapters of tiny arsed hints)! strikes Gai pose From the next chapter on the rating is T to M!
