A knock came to the door and I saw that it was Ino from the window. She stood there with Shikamaru, but no Chouji.

"Mitsukii answer the door!"

I yelled from the kitchen, where I was cutting the cookie cake.

"H-hi Mitsukii!"

I heard Ino stumble with her words and then she ran into the kitchen, throwing her things down in the living room on the way.

"Smooth, Ino-chan."

I said not looking up from my task at hand.

"Well, I didn't think he was going to open the door!"

She said sitting down in a chair and sighing.

"I told Mitsukii that you liked him."

I said smirking.

"WHY!!?"

She asked jumping from her seat.

"Don't worry! He likes you to. He told me so."

I said placing the the knife on the table and carrying the newly cut cake into the living room.

Shikamaru and Mitsukii were talking and Daishi was no where to be seen.

"Mitsukii where is Daishi?"

I asked placing the cake down on the table. He snatched up a piece and began chewing on it.

"She said she was going to go and put her pajamas on."

"You are so damn rude."

I said handing Shikamaru the cake.

"I mean you could've said, 'Yo, Shikamaru you want some?'"

Mitsukii shook his head.

"Women are so aggrivating."

He added as Ino and I walked up stairs. Daishi walked out of my room dressed in purple bottoms and a white tank top.

"Lookin good, Dai!"

I said walking past her and into my room. Ino brought her bookbag and we both went into my room to change clothes.

"Does Mitsukii really like me?"

Ino asked nervously as she opened her book bag up.

"Well he said that you were hot!"

I answered taking off my pants and putting on a pair of blue lounge pants. I took off my shirt and slipped on a matching blue tank top. Ino had already gotten dressed into a pair of purple cloth shorts and a blue tank top.

We walked out of my door and down the hall.

"Oh...Where is Chouji?"

I said in a demanding voice.

"His father wouldn't let him come."

I sighed. We walked down the steps and were greeted by three new faces. Kiba, Hinata, and Sasuke.

"Hey guys!"

I said happily. They all looked up and smiled, except for Sasuke of course. Kiba was sitting on the couch, Hinata was beside him, Daishi and Mitsukii were sitting in the floor, Sasuke was standing with his shoulder leaned against the wall and Shikamaru was laying on the loveseat.

"We just have to wait for Naruto and Sakura and then we can start playing a little game."

I muttered quietly while smirking. I had thought about the game I wanted to play and since my house was located so close to the forset and training grounds it was perfect for playing a game of hostage.

No sooner had my thoughts started, they were ended by a knock at the door.

I walked over and opened it up to be tackled down by a blonde.

"Nice to see you to, Naruto!"

I said brushing him off of me and standing up. Sakura walked in and hit Naruto on the back of the head.

"Your not supposed to try and kill her, Naruto!"

I smiled happily that everyone had came except Chouji, but oh well his loss.

"Ok I need everyone to get in a circle in the middle of the floor! Please!"

Everyone gathered in the middle of the floor. The order from left to right went...Me, Daishi, Mitsukii, Ino, Sakura, Hinata, Naruto, Sasuke, Kiba, and Shikamaru.

"Ok, I have a game that I want to play...!"

Mitsukii grabbed the bottle happily. I smacked him and grabbed the bottle.

"Later Mitsukii! We are going to play 'Hostage'!"

Everyone who knew the game smirked and laughed.

"W-what's H-hostage?"

Hinata asked looking at me in a nervous way.

"Well since we have an equal number of boys and girls this will be easy. Hostage is a game where boys try to capture girls and girls try to capture boys. There are three simple rules that must be followed:

1)No chakra

2)No weapons

3)No special abilities.

That Includes Sharingan, Shadow Clone, Fang Over Fang, Shadow Posession, And Jewel Casket!

Jewel Casket would Be Mitsukii's Special Jutsu

I added looking at each boy as I named off their abilities.

"Which also means no Byakugan, Water Star Jutsu, Fire Spin Jutsu, Mind Transfer Jutsu, And No Inner Sakura!"

Kiba said looking everyone of us over.

"Fine, fine. Anyways, Hinata, The Object of the game is to capture the most people for your team, but here is where the bad part comes in at, let's say you were captured by Naruto..."

She blushed badly.

..."Then you would have to do WHATEVER he says."

She blushed even more and the guys quickly agreed to this game, after I had said the last statement. The teams(boys vs. girls) got to get ready and prepare a plan before we headed out. Since three of us were in our pajamas Sakura and Hinata put theirs on to. Hinata wore long, wavy, violet lounge pants with a violet tank top and Sakura wore a pink tank top with pink shorts.

"I think we go shoping at the same store."

Daishi said looking over all of our pajamas. We laughed and agreed a little.

"So who want's to go after who? or do you just want to see who is most vulnerable?"

I asked as we tightened our group.

"I think that we should just go after who is most vulnerable, because if I followed Mitsukii and then they agree that Kiba should look for me then I will have to deal with 2 of them."

Daishi said in a logic manner.

"True. I think we should just try our hardest and remember girls keep your wits about you!"

Ino said seriously.

"Plus since we have our pajamas on they might not recognize us as well."

Hinata said nervously.

"If you see another person in a hostage situation then try to help, unless you are going to get caught yourself. Ok?"

everyone "Got it!"

At the Forest

It was about to be an all out wrestle for freedom. As we stood in front of the boys I wondered who I would be captured by or who I would capture.

I looked at all of their faces and one set of eyes caught mine. Shikamaru stared at me and I stared at him. I broke the gaze he had on me when Mitsukii started talking.

"On the count of 3, The game will begin. If you use any chakra what so ever you must stand in one spot for 5 minutes. If someone captures you then you cannot put up a fight. After the 5 minutes you are free to go if you haven't been captured."

I was slightly worried.

There was no:

Byakugan for Hinata.

Water Star Jutsu for me.

Fire Spin Jutsu for Daishi.

Mind Transfer for Ino.

and

No Inner Sakura for Sakura.

The boys were already stronger than us and even though they couldn't use their abilities they had a slight advantage. i could imagine Mitsukii being captured by Ino and her making him give her foot massages and bring her grapes. I laughed a little.

"...1...2...3...Go!"

I ran off and didn't even look to see where everyone else went. I had a feeling of great suspense and suprise. I couldn't help but smile.

I was hiding behind a bush and the only other person I saw was Daishi who was hiding in a tree adjacent from me.

"KOKORO WATCH OUT!"

I heard. It wasn't Daishi, it was Ino.

"Huh?"

I looked around me and saw Kiba who was two feet away, at the last second I moved to the left and ran into the open.

My heart was pounding out of my chest at the sudden attack and I saw Kiba run back into cover.

Daishi jumped down and ran across the field and after Kiba.

I heard a stick crack and I jumped to the side as Mitsukii came after me. We stood across from each other.

"You really don't want me do you?"

I asked as I grabbed his shoulder and threw him to the ground and then went back into hiding. I was now in a clear path that had numerous trees and most likely numerous enemies. I walked carefully down the path. I wanted to bag me a hostage not be one. I heard some leaves rustle and looked up in the tree to see Ino.

"Hey, Ino."

She jumped down and smiled.

"I caught one, Koko!"

She said happily. I moved over a little to see that she had Mitsukii tied up in the tree.

"She snuck up on me!"

He said smiling.

"Suk-chan is now your slave, Ino."

She laughed.

"I'm going to wait for the game to be over. So see you later and be careful!"

"I will. Bye."

I walked down the road as Ino jumped back into her tree with Mitsukii.

"Sakura you are making this a lot harder than it has to be!"

I looked over in the distance where Sakura was struggling to get away from Naruto.

"Well I did say to help anyone that was in trouble."

Sakura had kicked Naruto in the stomach and he was doubled over slightly just as I got there.

"Koko move!"

She said in a hurried voice. I turned around and my arm was grabbed by Sasuke.

"Let go!"

I yelled as I jerked my arm away, but started a chase between us. I ran off the way I had come before.

"Sorry Sakura!"

I yelled back sympathetically.

"Don't even try getting away, Kokoro!"

He said loudly as I tripped on a tree root, but quickly stood back up and ran again.

"Come on, Sasuke!!"

Mitsukii yelled from the tree he was restrained in.

"I wish Sasuke would chase after me like that!"

Ino said laughing hysterically.

"SHUT UP, INO!"

I yelled as I kept running. I hadn't got far before both my arms were restrained and I was basically a rag doll.

"Bastard."

I said frowning.

"I guess this means your my Hostage."

"Sasuke..."

I growled angrily.

"Are you mad at me now?"

He whispered in my ear. I leaned back into him. I was caught. I was Sasuke Uchiha's Hostage.

"Geez, Kokoro! You could have gotten away!"

Ino yelled loudly from her perch.

"Ino, You caught an idiot! It was easy for you!"

I couldn't say that I wasn't happy. He was hot, but there was another person I was hoping to catch me and that was Shikamaru.

I liked Shikamaru as more than a friend and I didn't know why. We hadn't really talked that much and we hadn't really spent that much time together. But for the time being I decided that I wouldn't make Sasuke catching me a bad thing.

"Looks like Uchiha caught one to."

I leaned up and looked to the side. Shikamaru had just walked up to us with Daishi restrained.

"God, can no girl capture a boy!"

Ino said jumping down from the tree.

"Get me to!"

Mitsukii said helplessly. She kicked the tree and he fell to the ground.

"Ino, Idiots are always easy to catch!"

Daishi said angrily. Ino marched Mitsukii over to where we were.

"Hey Koko, I think the wrong people caught us. Oh...yeah, I read your mind! Interesting choice of words!"

Daishi said giggling and refering to my thought about how I liked Shikamaru. My face flashed red as I smiled a little.

"Wanna trade?"

Shikamaru asked lazily looking down at me. I smiled and looked up at Sasuke. I kept mouthing the word 'trade' to him and I know that I said I wouldn't make this bad a thing, but since I had the chance I figured, go for it!

"Sure."

Sasuke said handing me over for Daishi.

Our game came to an end we learned that Kiba had been captured by Hinata and that Sakura had captured Naruto.

"How did you capture Kiba, Hinata?"

I asked as Shikamaru walked me back to my house. All hostages had to be excorted back to my house by their captures.

"Well when he almost caught me I accidently dropped my perfume bottle out of my pocket and it busted."
