Just Ludicrous: Chapter 7
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Neji groaned as Ningyo -sensei handed her the bags. "You can't be serious."
"I'm absolutely serious. Why else would I spend my money on frilly underwear?"
"Bizarre fetish?" muttered Neji. Sakusen choked, but Ningyo pretended not to hear her, instead laying out thin silk kimonos and hair accessories. Sakusen sat at the head of the bed, while Sasayaki perched on the windowsill and attempted to be as unnoticeable as possible.
"Sakusen? I have something for you, too."
The boy winced.
The woman pulled out an elegant kimono of crimson silk with black edging, and black pants of a high sheen. The boy stared.
"How on earth-? Those are worthy of a damaiyo's son!"
The woman winked. "I have a friend who was willing to help. Besides, I need you to look your part."
The boy stopped drooling at the reminder of his job. At that same moment, Neji stepped out from behind the dressing screen in the corner, clothed in an under kimono of sheer pale yellow silk and an over kimono of pale pink silk with cherry blossoms embroidery. Her hair was pulled up in a wispy bun held up by hair sticks. She was the perfect balance between beautiful and alluring. Sasayaki held up her book a little higher up so as to conceal the blush that had spread slightly across her face. Sakusen then slid behind the screen, and emerged resplendent in his outfit.
"But-!" he complained, "I look like as samurai or something! And the shoes totally clash." he gestured toward his sandals sitting just inside the door.
"True, which is why I bough you these as well." Ningyo handed Sakusen a pair of obi socks and leather. She then turned and handed another pair of socks to Neji, with a pair of pink silk slippers.
"And now, the finishing touch!" cried Ningyo. From a black, unmarked bag, she drew two sheathed samurai katana.
All three students gaped.
"Wh-where did you get those?" stammered Sasayaki.
"From a friend. He died long ago, and he requested that, as his squad leader, I should be given these."
Sasayaki hid behind her book again. What idiot Uchiha would give away clan treasures like that?!?
Ningyo handed them to Sakusen. "Be good to them."
Sakusen nodded. "I will."
"Now you two look perfect!" bubbled Ningyo. "Sasayaki, I want you to wear this." here she threw a kimono of navy blue at her. it drifted, and finally fell, totally enveloping the girl. "And I will be wearing this!" the woman pulled out a black mourning outfit.
Sasayaki fought her way out from under the kimono to see. then all three students watched their sensei.
"there has to be a point to all this!" begged Sakusen.
Ningyo beamed, though they could only tell by he way the mask moved. "The idea is that our old father has died. Sakusen, you are from another family of nobles, who has fallen in love with the youngest daughter, Neji. Bu the old man died with debt. therefore, Sasayaki and I are selling her to a brothel to make some money. Sakusen learns about the plan, and comes to stop us, but can't. it ends up with Neji sold, and Sakusen coming every day to visit her, until he can procure enough money to buy her contract."
the students made no move, just continued to watch her. Finally, Ningyo cleared her throat. "It's one of the main plot lines in a book I particularly enjoy."
Neji spazzed out. "You're making us act out scenes from your pervy books?!? what kind of a sick freak are you?!?"
Ningyo waved her hand. "No, no, if I had you act out the book, I'd be arrested for child abuse!"
the three gaped at her wordlessly.
"So you'll just have to pretend to act out the scenes!"
Neji broke down in the middle of the room. Sakusen began beating his head against a wall repeatedly. Sasayaki closed her book carefully, then slammed it once against her forehead, then went back to reading.
"So," mumbled Sakusen, resting his head against the wall, " when is the plan to be carried out?"
"Tomorrow. And I want you to play your parts convincingly. no half-attempts."
Neji and Sakusen groaned.
"I guess there's no getting out of this unscathed, is there?" mumbled Neji.
"apparently not." replied Sakusen.
"Well then!" cried Ningyo, "Neji, Sasayaki and I need to go make the necessary arrangements. Now remember your role, Neji."
"Right. Depressed, rejected, and despised. shouldn't be too hard."
"In the mean time," Ningyo-sensei turned to Sakusen. "You should go maybe to a flower shop and get some flowers for your beloved."
"Because we all know what happened last time I went into a flower shop."
Ningyo tilted her head to the right. "Huh?"
"I got hit on by Ino. Naruto had to henge into Neji to save me."
Ningyo nodded. "Well, I will have to admit, a certain amount of hitting on you will occur. there isn't much I can do about that."
Sakusen didn't respond.
"But at least you have a girlfriend to keep them at bay."
"A girlfriend who's a brothel girl." Sakusen began beating his head against the wall again.
"Well," said Ningyo loudly, so as to be heard over the regular banging, "Let's head out!"
