Day six part5: Forming a plan
Gaara ended up taking them to his cabin, which was almost empty. Iruka, Shio and Neji were the only one's there.
"Naruto?!" Iruka began to panic "are you o.k? Did Gaara try to do something to you again? We had a long talk about this, so he should know better…"
"…" Gaara just glaired at Iruka angrily.
"Looks like he's just having relationship issues."- Neji
Naruto blushed "R-relations-ship issues?"
"Let me guess, Sasuke right?"- Shino
"Wha-! No!"- Naruto
"Really? Not with Sasuke?" Neji asked surprised.
"Well, huh, it involves Sasuke, but…we're not in a relationship." Naruto mumbled.
"…Not yet." Neji commented dully "soon though, soon."
Naruto blushed "we're not like that!"
Everyone looked at him dully, even Iruka wasn't buying that.
"You guys in your denials I swear it's bad for your health you know."-Neji
"I just said that Sasuke and I are not like that!" Naruto commented angrily.
"Ooooh, so it's a yaoi. Figured as much." Temari commented as she entered the room with Shika right behind.
"Wha-yaoi? … I don't wanna know. Whose she?"-Naruto
"My sister. But never mind her. What was on the letter?"-Gaara
"…I don't know. He wouldn't talk to any of us about it." Naruto admitted shamefully.
"Well then" Shika intervened "we'll just have to find out then, now won't we?"
"Oh yes, because if we ask real nicely I'm sure he'll let us." Naruto commented sarcastically.
"Ah Naruto? I think he was advising we sneak it from him."-Shino
"Nani?!" Naruto began to panic "b-but what if he notices it's missing?!"
"I'm sure we're smart enough to come up with something." -Shika
"O.k so what are we up against?"-Shino
"Let's see…I think Choji went to go see his old cabin mates and Lee is with Guy."-Naruto
"Which leaves Kakashi, Kiba and Sasuke."-Iruka
'…this sort of feels familiar.' Shika began thinking to himself. 'ah right, like that time me and the others stole food from the counselors…that and we still have a cabin leader who's willing to help too…there something wrong with that.'
"O.k, fisrt things first, we need them out of there."-Neji
Everyone then looks at Iruka.
"…really guys, really?"-Iruka
"You got any better ideas on how to get Kakashi out of there?"-Gaara
"*sigh* no."-Iruka
"Alright, there's one. Now, Kiba."-Neji
"Keep in mind he also has a dog."-Naruto
"Yeah but that dog follows him everywhere, so that's not too concerning."-Shika
"…I guess I could challenge him or something…"-Shino
"You think you can handle it?"-Shika
"He looks like the type who'd easily loss his temper."-Shino
Worst part was, he was right.
"Okay, then that just leaves…Sasuke."-Gaara.
"Normally I'd say send Naruto, but he wasn't very responsive with him…maybe I should do it." -Neji
"…you sure?" Gaara asked "he'd probably try to kill you."
"Only if he's able to keep up with me." -Neji
"O.k looks like we have a plan." Shika clapped his hands together "let's get it started."
