Author's responds (please note that I took the trouble to address each and everyone's reviews because I truly thank every one of you for your reviews. Hence, take a few seconds to look through them if possible):
To jj, erm, I believe that I did mentioned that Shino got the scroll, hence he'll be the one who knows that Hinata has a crush on Naruto. Erm, and I believe that Shino already knows that she had a crush on Naruto... besides, Naruto isn't that bad of a character to not have anybody admiring him...
To Fire Blazing Chan S.E, sighs, yes, Kiba will read Shino's. And kindly please enlighten me what is confusing?
And link to AriesFalcon, you got your answer.
And let me ask Mistress Dragon Flame, what is confusing? She's merely talking to herself!
To Random-life, Kawaiinezimi, KarmaDreamz, Raining, MegamanX2223, Fattyaddy-99 and Alana-star sugar cat thanks a million for everything.
Lastly to Ao Hana and Hinata-chan88. Erm, your answer is in the previous chapters' author responds and how Hinata got injured.
GENERAL NOTE. THE SAND NINS HAVE ARRIVED IN THE OUTSKIRTS OF KONOHA.
THEIR TURN WILL COME SOON.
A/N PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE PROCEEDING.
AS YOU MAY KNOW, SHINO IS A TYPICAL CALM, QUIET AND SOLEMN PERSON. HENCE I BELIEVE THAT THERE IS STILL NOT MUCH KNOWN ABOUT HIM AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO VARIATION TO HIS FACIAL EXPRESSION. SO IF AT ANY POINT OF TIME DURING THE STORY YOU SEE NO DESCRIPTION OF HIM MAKING COMMENTS, IT IS JUST THE LAZY ME TAKING OVER, REFUSING TO TYPE THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING.
And now, the story.
Konoha Personality Test-Shino's hassle
The scroll was said to be passed down from over hundred years ago. When a person possesses the scroll, he can see what the previous user's response. Who was the originator of it? What's the purpose of it? Nobody knows. But as rare as such things are going to happen, the scroll only has very few people's responses. But it was also said that the person would meet with misfortune if he finds the scroll…
Shino was in the forest collecting some bugs. The weather was fine, bugs buzzed and crawled around. It was a favorite pastime of Shino's. There was no one around to treed on the bugs and disturb him
Then he heard something land beside him.
A scroll.
A very old scroll…
Or rather a very old and wet scroll.
Shino held it up with two fingers.
He then dried it with his bugs. (A/N don't ask me how.)
"Personality test, for those who had nothing better to do." Shino read off the top as he untwined the scroll.
Hmm… his bugs crawled onto the scroll.
Nothing seems to be wrong.

"Hm…"
Shino rolled out the scroll further…
No more questions.
However, there is a message…
"Thank you for completing this personality test. Unfortunately, there are no results of this. Just something to for you to do when you have absolutely nothing better to do. Sadly, you are in bad luck, for whoever picks up this scroll… GOES TO HADES!"
Shino was still comprehending the scroll's last message as he wonder deeper into the forest. Mistake number one.
Then he took out the scroll and looked at the message again. Mistake number two.
Then he continued to walk while staring at the scroll. Mistake number three.
And then he couldn't move.
"This is bad." Shino mumbled.
There were threads extended everywhere. And Shino realized that he was caught in a spider web.
A very big spider web.
He released his bugs in an attempt to break the web.
Then a shadow loomed.
He needn't turn to know what's there.
Then a big, hairy leg reached out.
It touched the scroll.
Then Shino saw the scroll tear away…
"ARF!" Akamaru gave a cry as something hit him from above.
"Akamaru?" Kiba turned and look.
Akamaru was massaging his head.
And also there's something beside him.
A scroll.
A very old scroll…
Kiba picked it up…
So how was this? A lot of rules and regulations… anyway, please give me your reviews. By the way, readers, I won't be writing Kiba's for a few days or so as I have a major exam next Monday. As much as I want to write about our man's best friend, I have to prioritize. But perhaps if I can squeeze out a little time a couple of days later perhaps you'll see another chappie. For the time being, please review. Thanks. K
