Chapter Ten: Of Squirrels and Women
Okay, it's official. I am completely and totally lost. I'm in a forest, that's how lost I am.
And I really want to go back to Sunagakure because of a few reasons.
One because I keep tripping over tree roots, two because I miss everyone in Sunagakure, and three because I really miss Gaara-kun.
Gahhhh...my life sucks.
Suddenly I heard a rustling sound come from the bush next to me. Getting ready for an attack, I was caught off guard when the noise turned out to be a kawaii squirrel.
"Awww! What a kawaii squirrel! Come here little fellah! Come on! I have some chocolate," I coaxed the animal.
It stared at me with its dark brown, almost black, eyes. I edged my chocolate candy bar, which had appeared from no where I might add, closer to the small creature.
"Here little fellah. I won't hurt you, I promise." The squirrel stared for a few more moments before something clicked in him.
With out any warning, the squirrel attacked my head with its razor sharp claws. (Notice the exaggeration here…heh)
"AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Mutant squirrel!!! Somebody HELP me!!" I howled out as I tried to fight off the squirrel.
I screamed some more and proceeded to try to whack the creature with a stick. I hit my head a few times on accident.
It hurted...a lot.
With the last ounce of my adrenaline rush I flung the squirrel off of my beautiful () head.
"Gah...you th-thing! I will eat you for breakfast! Er...lunch...whatever!" I snarled at the squirrel.
It gazed innocently into my eyes and I could see the tears pooling in his eyeballs.
Great...the baka squirrel has got me from calling him 'it' to now 'him'.
Then the water works began. He burst out crying and there was no one around besides me.
"Awww...shhhh, don't cry. I won't roast you and eat you for dinner lunch." The squirrel stopped crying and stood in front of me.
It started to quake in terror. "What's the matter, little guy?" I asked it.
It seemed to smirk at me. Suddenly it waved sayonara to me and disappeared.
"Hm...I wonder what his prob..." I was interrupted by the roar of a bear.
Behind me.
"Kuso" With that I screamed and ran as fast as I could away from the bear.
Somehow it kept up with me. Still screaming, I howled out, "Mutated bear!!!" My scream echoed all the way to Konohagakure where Naruto was eating ramen quite noisily.
"Mutated bear!" my voice echoed. He looked up confused. "Did you hear that?" he asked the ramen man ( Ramen Man!).
The ramen man looked just as confused as Naruto did. They both shrugged and went back to work/shoveling food into his mouth.
Anyway, back with me, Ame, I seemed to have lost the mutated bear. For now...dun dun duuuuun!
With Gaara
Gaara was in the same forest as I was when he heard a scream. "Ame!" he muttered urgently. He began to run in the direction on the scream.
A few moments later he heard the awful roar of a bear with a high pitched scream to accompany it.
He sighed, shook his head, and then began run even fast towards the sound of my screams.
With Me!
After catching my breath, I sat on a hallow log. That's when the squirrel popped up again.
"YOU! Because of you I had to sprint my way through half of this stinking forest!" I cried out to the squirrel.
With lightning speed I lashed out at the squirrel and grabbed it by its neck. The squirrel squirmed underneath my hands.
"DIE!" The squirrel's eyes got round and I cackled out an evil laugh. Then the baka squirrel pointed to something behind me.
"The bear's behind me again, isn't it?" I asked the squirrel in my hands.
It nodded.
Both the squirrel and I shrieked. I let Mr. Squirrel go and he ran off leaving me to get eaten by the bear.
"Nice mutated bear...stay right where you are," I said a bit frightened. It roared in my face and I started to bawl chanting "I'm gonna die!" over and over again.
After a few moments I realized the bear hadn't clawed me to death. I peaked through my hands that 'shielded' me from the bear.
There, with his sand holding the bear down, was Gaara.
