"Ah! Kaka-sensei!" Naruto and Sasuke chorused as they saw that their teacher was awake.
"Hmm? What have you guys done to the plane?" Kakashi looked around at numerous other people, easily civilian in nature. He raised a brow at the poor henge'd Naruto and Tenten. "Those….arent ninja are they?"
"Nope, these are…" Sasuke looked to Naruto for the word. Naruto whispered it in his ear and Sasuke finished his sentence. "..'cosplayers' They imitate a favorite character and go to some kind of gathering."
"Odd….what village are you two from?" Kakashi looked at the two cosplayers questioningly.
"Uh…we're from Florida…does that count?" The Naruto gave the ninja a strange look
"….Flor..ida? Must be a non-shinobi area. Like the Land of Waves way back." Kakashi studied the cosplayers for chakra, bloodline, anything. "Hmm…"
Naruto hopped the seat and went over to Sakura, who was still sleeping.
"Wow, she can sleep through a lot for a girl." Naruto poked Sakura's shoulder in an attempt to wake her without her hurting him in return. "Eh, Sakura wake up. You gotta see this!"
Sasuke looked over his seat and sighed. "Naruto, you have to be a little more aggressive. I mean, she slept for a loooong time when I….knocked her out."
Naruto scowled at Sasuke and returned to poking Sakura, this time harder and more often.
At one point, he lost his patience and decided on a new form of waking her up.
More poking….or maybe something else.
"Dammit Sakura! Wake up you have to see this!" Naruto almost screamed into her ear.
Sakura sat up with a start and landed a punch square in Naruto's stomach.
"Never do that again idiot!" Sakura stood up and stretched. She walked around a bit before finally sitting in Naruto's second seat next to Sasuke.
"So you were awake before me huh Sasuke?"
Sasuke ignored her and stared straight up at the cosplayer Naruto's face.
"Wow Naruto, your henge is terrible. I would have thought you had mastered the academy arts by now!" Sakura felt an impulse to punch Naruto again.
"Sssaakura-chan. That's not me, or Sasuke, or Kaka-sensei." Naruto was holding his stomach with one hand and using the other to stabilize himself. He readjusted his headband on his forehead and took the seat to the left of Sakura.
"What do you mean?"
Sasuke sighed again and turned to Sakura. "These are 'cosplayers', they are not shinobi whatsoever. They dress as a favorite character, and go to planned gatherings with other fans of their type."
"That's a bit creepy might I add." Kakashi stepped forwards and took the seat to the right of Sasuke. "I mean, why not be their own ninja?"
"Because my roleplay character is too difficult to make a costume with and no one would recognize him." The cosplayer Naruto piped in.
Kakashi and Sasuke sighed at the same time and sat back in their seats.
"Oh, I guess that makes sense. But Kakashi-sensei does have a point. But so do you, other Naruto." Sakura used her 'amazing' sense of mind to figure it out.
"Where is this plane heading then if this isn't the 'real world'?" Sakura leaned forwards in question.
"Boston. We're going to be attending Anime Boston." The Tenten took off her headphones to her i-pod and lie them on her lap.
