Chapter 12 - Wild
Sakura Haruno
My hair danced with the wind as Madara followed Hidan's truck through the night, and I watched as we slowly left Konoha and entered a forest trail. The leaves danced in the dark above us, making the trees ruffle and speak. I heard night animals chatter and squeak, and an owl hooted some where in the distance as we slowly made our way up the trail. A small smirk crossed my face, and I turned towards Madara.
"I'm surprised you'd actually drive this car in a forest. I thought it was your baby."
He smirked back, "I'm not a prissy rich boy. I don't mind if my car gets dirty."
When we finally parked in a dirt clearing I jumped out of Madara's car and looked around. It was, indeed, a campsite that Konan had been telling me about. There was a large fire ring with softball sized rocks decorating a ring around it. There was a break in the trees, and you could see a lake with rocks leading down to the waters edge. Two beat up campers sat next to each other in a little curve of the tree line, both having their small dents and scratches on the paint.
The others hopped out of the back of Hidan's truck, Kakuzu and Hidan slipping out of the front. Carelessly slamming the door to the driver's side, Hidan made his way over to the fire pit through the darkness. He and Itachi began to work on lighting the fire, whilst the others began to take their things from the truck. Konan walked over to me, her silver duffle looking like it was paining her right shoulder, "Come on, Sakura. Get your stuff; we get one of the campers."
I raised an eyebrow, "What about the guys?"
She smirked, "The fold out bed it two person, so usually they do some kind of fighting or game to see which two will do it. If they don't like who they get paired up with, they either do it again or opt out and sleep in one of the tents."
Nodding, I reached back into Madara's car and grabbed my duffle before shutting the door and following Konan over to one of the campers.
We were camping for the weekend, deciding to break away from Konoha for a weekend of peace. It had been about a week since my fight with Karin, my simple wounds beginning to scab over or fade away, and it was good to get away from the city. Decked out in some "wilderness clothes" as Konan called it, I was prepared for the outdoors. A simple navy blue plaid button up shirt, hiking boots, and ripped up jeans. I was surprised to know that Itachi, Madara, and Tobi owned anything outdoorsy. They wore the most prim clothes, even if they truly only wore dark colors. Even the rips on their jeans were designer.
I tossed my luggage haphazardly into the camper, following Konan's example, before traveling over to where Hidan and Itachi had the start of a fire going. I dropped myself onto a log next to it, clearly used for sitting as the others had already sat down. The thing was that they weren't sitting peacefully. All of them were arguing in their own style of the world, from yelling to death glaring, about which two would sleep in the two person fold out camper bed.
Konan suddenly waved a roasted marshmallow on a thin iron rod in my face, and I carefully took the golden treat off before popping it into my mouth. Struggling to swallow, I watched with amusement shining in my eyes as Deidara tackled Hidan to the dirt. Konan popped an uncooked marshmallow into her mouth, watching with a dull expression. I'm guessing that she's gone through this many times before.
Finally, Konan stood, "Okay, hey! HEY!"
Everything slowly stopped as the guys got quiet, looking at Konan with expressions that clearly said 'What do you want? We're arguing here!'. She cleared her throat, pointed, and said in a lame tone, "Tobi and Itachi get the second camper. Tobi, because he's the only one not complaining about where he sleeps, and Itachi because he's being quiet."
Complaints followed, and Konan pulled the thin iron rod she had used for marshmallow cooking from the fire. Everyone quieted as she waved it threateningly, glare in place.
The others grumbled and slunk to the tent bags as Tobi and Itachi moved their things to the camper. I simply ate another marshmallow and watched as the others pitched their tent, Konan sitting next to me with a lazy grin on her face. Suddenly, she slung an arm over my shoulders, making me stop mid chew, and said with a small laugh, "Our boys, huh?"
Blinking once in shock, I looked at her from the corner of my eyes, "Our?"
She nodded, "Yeah."
"Oi! We aren't you fucking dogs, you don't own us!" Hidan complained as he turned away from the tent he and Kakuzu were pitching, a glare planted on his face.
I looked at Konan, and she said in a bored tone, "Be quiet, Hidan."
He opened his mouth, but shut it quickly when the marshmallow I threw hit him in the forehead and stuck there. A steady flow of curses came from his as he turned back around, scraping marshmallow off of his face. Konan smiled and gave my shoulder a light punch. I returned the gesture half heartedly.
"Truth or Dare time!" Konan said suddenly, and my stomach twisted.
Ever since I was little, I have hated that game. My pride wouldn't allow me to pick truth the whole time, and the dares I got were mostly disgusting. From licking bugs to kissing the toilet seat, my dares never got much better as I grew up. As all us kids got older, who ever my friends were at the time, their brains got more perverted so the dares themselves got more perverted. I stopped playing that game in sixth grade, chickening out of a dare to flirt with a young male teacher at my old school. I was never a flirt like other girls. I didn't sweet talk every male I see, so it was natural that I ran away from that dare with my pride wounded.
Everyone gathered closer around the fire as a steady flow of the game began. It wasn't really perverted; thank the gods, for there were only two girls and the rest guys. I was dared to eat an overly cooked marshmallow, overly cooked meaning black and made at the hands of Tobi. I almost threw up, but kept a strong will and swallowed it down. Konan had to let Hidan throw her in the lake near by, and when she finally got dry and came back out of the camper we started again.
Pein was dared to use pick up lines on Kisame, Kisame was forced to eat sushi (Which he has some strange problems with), Itachi had to wear Konan's bikini top for fifteen minutes and take poses while Hidan and Deidara snapped pictures with their phones, Sasori had to eat a bug (What species the little thing was, we will not know, but it had many legs), and Hidan had to strip to the 'I'm to sexy for my shirt' song. Thank goodness he only had to take off his shirt.
"Sakura, truth or dare?" Deidara asked, his hair wild from having to climb a big tree near the camp yard, a dare by Hidan. The catch? No clothes except for his boxers.
"Dare," I said lazily.
He smirked, and said evilly, "I dare you to go steal a pair of underwear from the campsite next to ours."
The camp site next to our, not visible through the tree lines, had come to life not shortly after we arrived here at our spot. Music and a bunch of other noise had come from their campsite.
I made a face, but stood. I tucked my plaid shirt into my black jeans, and took the black jacket Konan gave me. It would, hopefully, help hide me from who ever was camping next to us. I zipped it up and darted into the forest, following the noise with silent steps. I made my way through the trees, avoiding stepping on branches and other things the whole way. Once I made it to the tree line on the other side, I almost groaned out loud at who was camping next to us.
Sasuke and Karin, lip locked and practically raping each other with their clothes on, were across the clearing on the other side of the camp site. That Naruto kid sat by the fire, his arm draped over a blushing girl with midnight blue hair with a purplish tint. A boy with a ponytail that made his head resemble a pineapple sat on the ground a few feet away from them, Ino sitting next to him with her head on his shoulders. A boy with coffee colored hair that reached mid back sat on a log next to Naruto's, a girl with dark brown hair put into two buns sitting next to him. A large white dog lay on the ground near the fire, basking in the heat as a boy with wild brown hair rubbed his belly. A weird boy sat next to him, wearing sunglasses at nighttime. I looked at the tent closet to me, and crouched silently.
I made my way towards it slowly unzipping the zipper. When anyone moved or a noise that made me suspect that they knew I was here, I froze completely and held my breath. When I finally had it unzipped enough, I slowly slid in side. I reached for the nearest bag and dug inside. I found out that it was Sasuke's bag, because I found a shirt with his name on the tag. Making a disgusted face, I pulled out a pair of his boxers and moved the bag back to where it had originally been and slipped from the tent. I slowly zipped it, and made my way towards the forest line. I walked backwards, so that I could watch them all carefully, my eyes widened and breath hitched as a twig snapped underneath my feet.
"Hey, who's there?" Naruto called loudly, and I scrambled into the forest.
Piper: Whew, done!
