Kimiko's POV
I screamed and jumped back before it swiped at me. I threw myself backwards and hit the floor, butt first.
What did I see, you ask?
I saw a mouspider. But that wasn't the unusual part. What made it down right scary was who was trying to kill it.
A guy from Walmart.
Yes, a guy from Walmart was killing a mouspider, under a table, in my house.
He was killing it with a big wrench. It wasn't exactly my tool of choice, but he seemed to be getting along fine.
When he was done killing it, he looked up at me.
"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY HOUSE?" I screamed, scrambling backwards until I bumped into someone's legs behind me.
"I'm a guy from Walmart." He said in a know-it-all voice.
"I KNOW THAT! BUT WHY ARE YOU IN MY HOUSE?" I screamed, pushing back farther into whoever was behind me.
"I came to tell you guys about a contest we're holding." He said, standing up and brushing some of the mouspider's fur off of himself.
"What kind of contest?" Itachi asked, narrowing his eyes at the man, his voice lined with suspicion.
"We're offering 100,000,000 ryo AND dollars to the group who can last the longest inside our store." He said, emphasis surrounding the money part.
By this time, I had stood up, but at the mention of how much money was at stake, I fainted.
Itachi's POV
We all had some kind of reaction to the offer, but Kimiko's was the most extreme.
She fainted.
I was going to attempt to catch her, but I hesitated, causing her to hit the floor in a way that sounded rather painful.
After several seconds, she snapped out of it and she stood up.
"I-I'm fine… Go on." She said, rubbing her head sorely.
"Um… Well, there are going to be 7 other groups, and the one who can last the longest will get the money." He said in a perky way that made me wanna slap him.
"What's the catch?" Hidan asked, narrowing his eyes at the strange Walmart man.
"No catch." He said, looking at all of us, a truthful look on his face.
"Plus, you can do what ever you want." He said, making it sound that much sweeter.
Kimiko fainted again.
This time, I caught her before she hit the floor, but just barely.
After several more seconds, she snapped out of it and stood up again.
"May I suggest a safety belt for this next part?" Walmart man asked, a smile forming on his face.
Kimiko waved us off, rubbing her head, mentally preparing for the next part.
"Every single person in the winning group will be chosen to fight a loser opponent, and whoever wins the entire competition will get to run through the store for 30 minutes, taking what ever they want or can grab." He said, having a little trouble remembering the details.
The only one who followed him the whole way through, and understood, was Kimiko, causing her to faint once again.
After a few minutes, she snapped out of it and managed to stand back up.
"And the best part? The winner gets to meet a band of their choice." Walmart dude put in.
We all looked at Kimiko.
"I-I'm fine." She said, using all her will power not to fall over.
"So when is this contest supposed to take place?" Kisame asked.
"Next week. We'll give you all the details and rules of the contest at the store." He said.
Finally, Kimiko lost control and fainted.
"Poor thing, she held on as long as she could, un." Deidara said, looking down at her.
"Is she always like that?" Walmart dude asked, pointing at the unconscious child on the floor.
"No, the fainting thing is new." I said, looking down at her.
She managed to snap out of it after several minutes.
"Go tell Leader-Sama and the others to get in here, Kimiko." I said, after she was stable.
"M'kay." She said, running from the room, pulling on the goggles.
"You know, I've noticed something." Said the Walmart man.
"What's that?" I asked, leaning back against a counter.
"I used to believe that there was no cool way to faint. But that kid proved me wrong." He said, stuffing the wrench into his back pocket.
Kimiko's POV
I ran into the lounge room, only to be blinded by a flash light shined directly at me.
"Oh hi Kimiko. What's going on? We heard you screaming." Konan said.
"We found a half eaten cookie on the floor, so we thought something got into the hideout, so we were looking, and I looked under the table and I found a mouspider that tried to kill me, but a guy from Walmart came with a wrench and he killed it and he told us about a contest and I kept fainting and Itachi told me to come get you guys and I came and got you so COME ON!" I said, nearly out of breath by the end of the explanation.
"Eh?" Leader-Sama choked out.
"JUST COME WITH ME." I said, leaving the room, expecting everyone else to follow.
They did, but just barely.
When we got to the kitchen, Walmart guy had to re-explain everything, which resulted in me almost fainting once again and a lot of cussing from everyone.
Long story short, we kicked the Walmart guy out in the rain after he was done explaining, and we basically freaked out for the rest of the night.
I thought it was pretty damn funny.
