Tsunade's Plan…
"SHIKAMARU, YOU BAKA!! YOU ARE SUCH A LAZY-ASS!" Ino screamed at him, waking him from his slumber on the couch.
"Huh? Wha?" he shook himself awake, "What'd I do this time, Ino?"
"YOU FELL ASLEEP!!" Ino was pretty pissed, "KIYOSHI WAS DYING. HE WAS ON THE RED. WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING? I'M GONE HARDLY TWO HOURS AND YOU MANAGE TO ALMOST KILL OUR SON!!! WHAT KIND OF FATHER ARE YOU, ANYWAY?"
Shikamaru's ears began to ring from all of the noise. His mom came out from the kitchen. She looked every bit as mad as Ino.
"HE DID WHAT? SHIKAMARU, YOU COULD YOU? IF YOU WRECK THIS FOR INO, I SWEAR I WILL KICK YOUR SORRY ASS ALL THE WAY TO SUNA!!"
I hate women, Shikamaru decided, as he tried to lessen the sound by covering his ears with a couch cushion.
"Don't worry, I fed him and held him for a while and he's in the yellow now. Poor baby…" Ino kissed Kiyoshi's nose.
"Dinner will be almost ready." Shikamaru's mother said, walking back into the kitchen.
Ino glared at Shikamaru before she too stormed out of the room. He sighed, and went after her.
"Ino, I'm sorry. Really, I know how important this is to you, and I almost really screwed it up, I'm so sorry." He sighed, trying to sound sincere.
Hmmm, I hear that if you can get an apology out of a guy at all, it's got to mean something… Ino mulled her thoughts around.
"Okay, I'm not mad anymore." She smiled at him.
Y-you're not?" he gave her an odd look.
"Nope!" Ino grinned, "Now look at all of the clothes I got Kiyoshi!"
"Are you feeling okay?" he looked concerned as he put the back of his palm to her forehead.
"Uh-huh!" she stood on her tip-toes to kiss the tip of his nose, quickly before she skipped out of the room.
What? I will never understand her, Shikamaru decided, but his fingers still touched the spot on his nose where her lips were as he blushed slightly.
…
"Hey, Shizune!" Tsunade called her over.
"Hai?" the black haired girl asked.
"Check this out. I've got this jutsu that will turn all of the dolls real. Wouldn't that be hilarious?" the Hokage began evil laughing.
"Um, are you sure they could take care of real children?" Shizune asked, concerned.
"This is only for our pure amusement, now get me that scroll over there."
"I really don't think you should do this…" she was cut off.
"I'm the Hokage for a reason, okay? Now just trust me, this will be fun!"
Shizune sighed and handed her boss the scroll she was asking for. Tsunade unrolled it on her desk and put her hands over it moving them, doing several characters. Suddenly, there was a popping noise, and the scroll dissolved into thin air. A little smoke was all that was left.
"See? It will only be a matter of time now before they come back here demanding to resign from the mission."
"And you'll let them?"
"OF COURSE NOT! DO YOU KNOW ME AT ALL?"
"Oh, I was just wondering." Shizune picked up a squealing Tonton and left the room.
"MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
…
Hinata stepped in the door of Naruto's apartment. She was greeted by the scent of instant ramen. She giggled at that.
"N-Naruto-kun?" she called, walking to hid bedroom.
"Be there in a sec, Hina-chan!" she heard his muffled voice call from the shower.
She peeked in Nami's crib, and what she saw caused her white eyes to grow wide. Hinata screamed and jumped back.
Wh-what?
She heard the bathroom door be thrown open and thudding footsteps into the bedroom. Naruto in his usual outfit, except without the jacket, and wet hair knelt beside her.
"What is it? What's wrong?" he demanded, holding her small pale hands in his bigger tan ones.
"N-Nami! Sh-she…" she trailed off.
Naruto stood up and looked in the crib himself. His eyes got wide and his jaw dropped.
"BAA-CHAN!" he shouted, "I WILL KILL HER!"
Hinata just cowered some more. He saw this and gave her his hand to help her up. The real-child-Nami began to cry. Both of them stared at each other in horror.
…
"That's a good baby! Yes…" Ino held Kiyoshi against her shoulder. Suddenly, he felt different in her hands. She pulled him down to look at him.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" she screamed, almost dropping him. Shikamaru looked up from where he sat across from her.
"KIYOSH IS A REAL BABY, LOOK!" she shrieked, holding the confused baby at him.
Shikamaru's eyes grew wide, "It was that Tsunade! I just know it!"
"But Shika, we're only sixteen, how are we going to be able to take care of a baby?" Ino sank to the ground.
…
Neji gazed face of his child. He was in his crib, looking back. White clashed against white.
How the fresh hell did this happen?
Oh use your imagination, it was obviously that pathetic excuse we have for a Hokage.
Tenten's gonna go into a coma.
Neji decided to just tell her. He walked down the stairs where Tenten was cooking dinner. She grinned at him as he came down, making the blood seem to race through his veins faster than usual. She looked prettier than usual in her shorts and t-shirt with no shoes on, some flour was smudged on her cheek.
"Tenten, I think you should have a look at Taro." He said, is air of calm slightly not as strong as usual.
"Huh?" she put down her cooking chopsticks and followed him up the stairs.
"OH MY GOD, WHAT THE HELL WAS TSUNADE THINKING?"
He shrugged.
"HOW CAN YOU BE CALM? WE'RE SEVENTEEN WITH AN INFANT SON! TELL ME YOU SEE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THAT!"
"I realize that, Tenten."
She shook her head and fell on the bed, tears running down her face.
"Come, on why are you crying?" he asked gently, sitting on the bed next to her to rub her back.
"I'm just mad, that's all." She reached up to wipe her eyes, but Neji caught her hand in his.
He gently brushed away the tears with his other hand. She smiled at him.
"I'll go to the Hokage's office, now. You can take care of Taro, right?" she stood up.
"Hai." Neji responded softly.
…
"I am going to kill that bitch," Sakura fumed as she stomped towards the Hokage tower. She held Leiko tightly against her chest. People stared, wondering what was wrong with her.
…
"Heh, heh, now you're all probably wondering why your dolls are now real." Tsunade laughed weakly.
"DAMN STRAIGHT!" Naruto, Tenten, Ino, and Sakura screamed.
"But do not fear, it will turn back to normal when your two and a half weeks are up." The Hokage continued.
"Ohh, thank god." Tenten literally sank to her knees in relief. Everyone looked at her, "What? I'm just glad to realize that I don't have to raise a child with Neji, that's all!" she pouted.
"Well, got paper work to do, see you in two more weeks!" Tsunade winked.
"I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE!" Naruto screamed.
"Just give it up, Naruto," Sakura sighed, covering Leiko's ears as he yelled, "It will all be over soon."
"That's my student!" Tsunade grinned.
"I'm still mad at you." She glared, as she and the rest walked out.
"I'd say that was pretty painless. More so than I expected." The Hokage sighed to Shizune.
Tonton squealed.
…
"It won't be so bad, Sakura-tenshi." Lee told her as Leiko fisted in pointer finger, "I'll help you."
"I know." She smiled.
End Chaper
