Author's Note: I know I haven't updated this in a LONG time! Blame work and writers' block. Outside of my weekly updates for 2008-52 and a few random one-shots, I haven't been doing fanfiction updates, but this week with some better hours I'm going to try and make updates for both Hey Sound, Joys Of Fatherhood, and Agreeably Argumentative.
And now, for the first of these updates!
Story Eight: Movie Night
"Sasuke-chan! Kabuto-chan! Karin-chan! Sui-chan!"
Four heads turned towards the child-woman, standing in the kitchen with a smile too bright for the morning. "Guess what! Orochimaru-sama said we should have a family movie night tonight, and I agree! So make sure to pick out a movie, Karin-chan you're bringing pocky, and Orochimaru-sama and I are going to buy some sweets! Be ready at 7:00 tonight with some movies!" Sakura exclaimed, then turned on the heels of her sandals and ran out of the kitchen, more than likely towards the room of the snake in earnest of the idea of getting treats.
"Movie night?"
"Hn, a waste of time."
"Oi...I best find the VCR."
"How does that little witch know about my pocky stash!?"
"Hmm...oh, these look good, and so are these! And can't forget the popcorn," Sakura said softly to herself, "I best go and find Oro-I mean, Daddy. He said he was getting the tomatoes. Yuck!"
Somewhere in the store, a pale-faced man, under a guise, wiped a tear from his eye proudly at the thought of being called a dad.
"Does that old thing even work? It looks like it's twenty-something years old," Suigetsu remarked as Kabuto blew off the dust from the beaten VCR. The medic looked it over several times, inspecting the wire for any breaks in the casing or any rattling from inside of the machine.
"I don't know. It looks all right. Why don't you hand me one of those videos and we'll try it out," he said, plugging it in and taking the video Suigetsu handed him. After a few minutes of work, a movie finally appeared on the screen.
"OH MY GOD!"
"Man...that's one kinky little--."
"WHY DOES OROCHIMARU-SAMA EVEN HAVE THAT!?"
Suigetsu watched as Kabuto quickly ejected the tape and tossed it against the wall, effectively breaking it. "Wow. Spazzy much?" he asked sarcastically, taking of drink of his soda.
"Must be having a big family movie night, huh? This is a lot of snacks," the cashier remarked with a smile as she bagged the last box of popcorn. Sakura smiled, "Mmhmm! Really big! We'll probably stay up all night! It'll be so much fun! But I won't be eating the tomatoes. Yuck! Sasuke-chan can keep all of the tomatoes to himself! I rather eat all of the candy!"
Orochimaru only chuckled, "My little Sakura-chan is going to get a sugar high off all the sweets!"
And somewhere in Sound four people had shivers run down their spines.
"Everything's ready!" Kabuto yelled, grabbing one of the (approved) videos off of the table that was chosen earlier just as the clock started to strike 7:00. Sakura was the first on the couch, a bowl of popcorn in her hand. "Yay yay! Kabuto-chan, you're sitting by me, right?" she asked, her emerald orbs staring at him puppy-eyed. The medic sighed, grabbing the remote and sitting down by the child-woman, to her satisifaction.
Sasuke appeared next, a bowl of tomatoes in his hand and plopping down on the end of the couch. Sakura pouted, "Hmph, emo!" The Uchiha glared at her over one of his tomatoes, his eyes saying " only doing this because I'm being forced to, so shut up and let me enjoy my tomatoes."
"Sasuke-kun, my darling!"
"Oi, shut up..Ow!"
"Quiet! Aww, how sweet, you saved a seat for me!"
Karin sat down quickly next to Sasuke, looping her arms around his to his chagrin, while Suigetsu sat down on the opposite side, sipping on his soda while holding one of the stolen boxes of Pocky in his lap. Orochimaru came in last, sitting down next to his "daughter" and sharing the bowl of popcorn that she held.
"Yay! Let the family movie night begin!" Sakura yelled, turning on the tape with glee, while four members of the "family" wondered if they would survive the night with the hyper child-woman.
"...How the heck is this scary?"
"Don't open that door Lori! You'll regret it!"
"Shut up Sakura!"
"You shut up Kabuto-chan!"
"Eep! Sasuke-kun, protect me!"
"Let go of me, Karin."
"Ew! Orochimaru-sama, that's gross!"
"Sorry, but Sakura-chan's all out of popcorn."
"You could've told me to make more instead of sticking your tongue into Kabuto-chan's bowl."
"Eeeeeeeeeeeeek!"
"Your nails are digging into my arm. Let me go!"
"...Wuss."
WACK
"Ow! Karin, don't throw a bowl at me!"
"This place is now a mess," Sasuke remarked, turning off the TV as the credits of the second movie finished playing, "And want to bet Orochimaru is going to force us to clean it up?" Kabuto sighed and Suigetsu shrugged his shoulders as he finished off his last can of soda.
"Who knows? Right now I think he's a little busy tucking in his kid...I think. Whatever she is. Seriously, what is she?"
"A pain in the ass."
"Hn."
Orochimaru reappeared into the room, finished with tucking Sakura in (so much for staying up all night), and smiled creepily, "Well boys, it looks like we have a mess to clean up, do we? Let's get to work shall we?"
He failed to see the shivers crawling up their spines.
