A/N: Woah… 67 reveiws? –dies- A-amazing.

Ruby: Stupid author dying….

Gaara: It just means she can stop writing fiction about me.

Me: I'm BA-aaaaack!

Ruby: But you died.

Me: They didn't want me.

Ruby: Oh… damn.


I split up with Naruto and hung around with Kiba. He honestly acted fairly forgiving, he didn't seem to mad of course a little bit but he strayed from the topic and told funny stories about his team.

"You sure that happened?" I ask after hearing the end to a story.

"Of course! I swear Chouji flipped, I never saw it coming, so don't give Shikamaru anything to drink. He becomes very to the point."

"Sounds fuun."

"Haha very."

I smile back at him wondering about rando things when the certain annoying one pops in the one that asks: Is he single? Then: If so, does he still like me? Followed by: I wonder how he kisses now…

I mentally slap myself and think of Gaara, when he asks me; "Hey, Ruby have you eaten lunch yet?"

"No actually I haven't eaten since yesterday morning." I giggle.

"Wanna go eat with me, then? I'm supposed to meet Hinata there."

"Uhm… sure…. Would that be okay with her?"

"I think so she's usually really nice, modest, and pretty shy."

"But… I don't really wanna be a third wheel…"

Kiba lightly blushes then laughs loudly. "Baka! I'm not going out with her! She likes Naruto, Na-ru-to!"

It rakes us ten minutes to get to the restaurant on our dogs, I must say riding a dog is not easy, I respect Kiba for doing it so well, because I fell off a lot. In the end, Kiba ended up putting me on Akamaru with him and making me wrap my arms around his waist so I wouldn't fall.

"What are we doing with the doggies?" I ask at the entrance.

"They have to eat out here, so I made sure I got a window seat so we can make sure they don't do anything stupid." Kiba replies entering the restaurant. I follow him and look around. The place looks pretty, but still 'teenage hangout' the waitresses are all girls with perfect bodies, and one who looks somewhat familiar comes up to us smiling.

"Hi, a table for two?" She asks her voice is sweet but flirtatious as she check Kiba out with a seductive smile.

"Three… um we're with her." He said pointing to the Hyuuga heiress who was lightly waving at us.

"Okay," She let us in and followed us to the table her eyes stuck to Kiba as she leaned forward squeezing her large…. Nunga-nungas together.

(A/N: Nunga-Nungas: Pronounced N-ung-a-n-ung-a-s. Definition: a slang term used for a woman's breasts. Origin: The 'Confessions of Georgia Nicholson' series they are good. Sorry felt like I had to explain…)

Kiba being the male he is stared at her cleavage and received a small nosebleed. The waitress ignored his perverted gaze and set down three menus.

"My name is Lila I'll be serving you today." She says her green eyes looking at us all… Lila… where do I know her from um… my eyes widen. (A/N: Go to chapter two if you are confuzzled.)

"Um, Lila, are you from the Land of Wolves by any chance?" I ask her.

"Um… yes. Why do you ask…" her eyes see mine for the first time, "Princess?!" She shouts shocked.

"Oh my god I was right!" I yell back.

"I thought you died!"

"I thought you… were still living back in my country!"

Her eyes soften slightly, "Your highness, I'm afraid our country is gone."

"What?"

"It was demolished last year…"

"No, that couldn't of happened."

"It did! An organization of S-classed criminals destroyed it!"

"A-Akatsuki…?" I ask in shock.

"You know them?!"

I nod.

"Are you in alliance with them?!" I notice she's crying, her make up running but her face still beautiful all the same I nod again and watch her sob.

I look back to Kiba still shocked. "Is… Is it true?" I ask him.

"Yes." The pearl-eyed girl across the table says. "It's true."

~Three hours later~

"Ah, Ruby thought I'd find you here." Sakura says entering Kiba's house. I' lying on Kiba's couch my head on his lap staring his T.V.

"Sh, 'Dogs with Jobs' is on." I reply not looking away from the screen.

"Ruby, we are meeting our new team members."

"Ugh… fine." I get off of Kiba's couch lazily and grin at him.

"Seeya later Kiba."

"Bye Ruby."

I walk out of his house with Sakura and we go to the assigned area.

Of course we are early.

And of course Dog with Jobs is still on.

And of course we end up waiting an hour.

I could've watched my show.

Then as if summoned everyone arrives at the same time. Naruto from the left, a black haired, black-eyed pale-skinned boy from the right, and some man from in front of me.

"You…" I mutter, but before I can say anything else Sakura a gives me a 'no' look and I comply.

"Hiya!" The pale boy says smiling

"Y…You!!" Shouts Naruto pointing to Sai.

"Um…" The man says confused. "For now I'll be taking Kakashi's place…"

"Naruto do you know him?" Sakura asks Naruto pointing to the still unnamed boy.

"Sorry about before, I just wanted to gauge the ability of my new teammate. I just didn't know how much I'd have to look after the little prick with no balls." He smiles kindly.

Naruto prepares to charge forcing Sakura to hold him back. I laugh at the boy's statement.

"WHAT DID YOU SAAY!?" Naruto shouts, "AND STOP LAUGHING RUBY!"\

"Naruto, calm down! He's our teammate now!" Sakura replies then looks to the male figure, "But you're… not that nice."

"Ahaha really?" He laughs smiling, the laugh sounds fake, it's the laugh Itachi uses when he's pretending. "Too bad," he continues, "I like people like you, friendly crones."

It's now Sakura's turn to blow a fuse forcing the new leader to take a hold of her, and making me laugh harder.

"YOU WHAT?!!!!!" Sakura shouts.

"Hey, remember what you just told Naruto?!" Mr. Newcomer Leader says.

"I like him, he's funny." I sigh.

"You're Ruby right? Nothing like the pretty gem though…you're a whore aren't you?"

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT YOU DIRTY BASTARD?!" I shout at him.

Naruto seizes hold of me and says, "Calm thoughts… Ramen, ramen… miso ramen… pork ramen… beef ramen…" I can tell he's about to drool over me… like you know his mouth's by my shoulder so the drool is actually over me. I sigh and nod today is no good.

~Gates of Konoha~

"Anyway…" Leader-weird-headband man says, "From now on the five of us are off on a mission but … well, look at you, there's no time to toss you all in a cage and get you used to each other. So introduce yourselves."

"Uzumaki Naruto…"

"Haruno Sakura…"

"My name's Sai."

"Ruby."

"Well that's that. Now that we know each other I'll explain the mission. From here the five of us will proceed to the Tenchi Bridge there, from there we will intercept the spy Akatsuki has in Orochimaru's organization and bring him back. This is a chance for us to find out about Orochimaru and Uchiha Sasuke. We can gain valuable information which may lead to the assassination of Orochimaru and take Sasuke back. So keep focused!" He says scanning us, "We will depart from here in one hour, go take everything you need and assemble back here."

~An hour later~

I hurry back not wanting to be last, which, of course, I was.

"Sorry I'm late…" I mumble joining up with them.

Yamato smiles at me and says: "That's fine but if you run away who knows what I'll do to find you."

"R...right…" I reply.

"Right then!" Yamato grins. "Team Kakashi departs!" The then began walking and we all followed… in an awkward silence. Naruto, decided that t would be a good idea to stare at Sai, followed by a course of staring at Sai with a bit of Sai watching, and for dessert staring at Sai.

"What is it?" Sai asks after twenty minutes of Naruto staring.

Naruto responds with more staring.

"Please stop staring at me, I might be forced to hit you."

"Every damn thing you say just pisses me off more!!" Naruto shouts at Sai I roll my eyes and keep walking.

"I don't have any malice towards you." Sai says calmly.

"LIAR!" Naruto shouts enraged.

Oh, my, god. He is so…loud? I think.

"I'm just trying to put on that kind of attitude." Says Sai with a grin.

"Aha! You do have malice!" Naruto says… well still shouting. "Why the hell are you here?! All you do is piss people off!!!"

"Hey, hey, don't say something like that right in front of your captain Naruto." Yamato says annoyed turning to face us. I roll my eyes again and listen to him tell Naruto stuff about blah, blah, blah.

"But he's not a member of team Kakashi!" Naruto roars pointing at Sai. Wow… he really misses this 'Sasuke' guy huh? I think raising my eyebrows. "The other member of team Kakashi is Sasuke!!!" He continues.

Wow right on the money…

'Nice job Ruby.'

Ah it's nothing Garou…

"This guy is…" Naruto continues a bit quieter but still growling. "Just taking Sasuke's place, some one to fill the gap, I'll never think of some one like him as a team member!"

Sai pauses and smiles, "Well I'm glad you think of me that way."

'This boy seems interesting…' Garou laughs inside me.

"I wouldn't want to be likened to that weak shit-for-brains Orochimaru clone who only cared about power and ran off to Orochimaru betraying Konoha." Sai smiles innocently.

'I really like this boy 'Sai' he's very funny.' Garou giggles.

"You bastard!" Naruto growls infuriated clenching his fist and preparing to go after Sai. I grab his foot and he of course trips.

"Look, as Yamato-san said, 'the most important thing is team work.' So let's just have some?"

I look at Sakura waiting for her to continue, I know both of us are thinking the same thing.

"Sai…" She says, "Naruto… since he doesn't know you that well, may have gone a bit to far. I'm sorry please forgive Naruto." She says.

I glance at her and she does the same.

"Think nothing of it." Sai smiles.

"That's great!" I say getting up.

Sakura then goes forward and punches Sai in the face at the same time I kick his jaw. Every one gets confuzzled at our actions and Sai gets flung back.

"On the other hand," Sakura starts.

"Us, you don't have to forgive." I smile finishing Sakura's sentence. Geez Sakura and I are like the perfect young couple in love finishing each other's sentences, teaming up on the new guy… planning this without words…

"You fooled me completely… with that fake laugh before and your pleasant smiles…" Sai said wiping the blood from his mouth.

"Since you don't seem to know anything of Sasuke-kun don't speak those things of him! Don't speak about things you have no idea of! If you bad mouth Sasuke one ore time I will not hold back." Sakura hisses.

I simply grin.

"Heh gotcha I won't say anything of Sasuke in front of you. But, those fake smiles you used before, I'll remember that."

"You've just been hit why're you acting so cheerful?!" Naruto accuses.

"Smiles are the best way to get out of trouble… even fake ones. Amazingly, it fools everyone… I read that in a book before. It doesn't seem to work here though."

Then all the sudden outta nowhere the earth shakes and quakes and BAM a biiiiiiig cage of wood grows out of the ground behind Yamato.

"If you guys don't stop arguing I'll have to toss you in a cage." Says captain Yamato who is really starting to annoy me. "I said we don't have time before we go to Tenchi bridge… but we do have five days."

I sigh but decide to listen anyway. I miss Saso-chan, and Dei-chan…

"As mediator here, this is my proposition. You can spend a day or two in the cage and work our your differences, or we can go to a hotel that has hot springs. What'll it be?"

I smile at the hot springs part… it sounds nice.

"You guys don't really know me either, I like being nice and friendly but I have no problem with ruling by fear either." He says making the scariest of all scary faces EVER.

"W-we'll try our best to get along, so please may we go to the hot springs?" I say trying not to show fear.

"That sounds fine." Yamato says smiling, "I heard there was one this way."

I nod and follow him, it takes ten minutes to get there. Yamato books us in and I go straight for the hot springs.

"Sakura!" I shout once in the warm water. "It's really nice!" she dips her toe in wrapped in a towel.

"It's a bit hot…"

I place my palm on the surface. "Ice." I say, starting from my palm an ice sculpture of an angel grows. "That'll cool it of a bit." I smile the base to the small statue sculpture already melting. Sakura looks at it.

"You have a jutsu for something like that?" She asks probably wondering why I have something so pointless.

"Usually it's larger and my opponent's trapped inside."

"I see…" She says not know what else to say. She walks in her back to every one as she removes her towel.

I swim over to her and sit beside her.

"Your hair has grown really long Ruby." Sakura notes. My hair is down I didn't feel like keeping it up in the hot spring but since it's down it touches my lower back almost to my butt.

"Haha yeah…" I was about to continue in a jolly non-perverted conversation when we all (everyone within the mass of the globe) hear a certain blonde yell: "Don't go looking! Why are you always going on about penises anyway?!"

Both Sakura and I blush from embarrassment. "I . Will. Kill. Him." I say to Sakura. She nods in agreement. All the women surrounding us begin to laugh.

I receive an idea.

"Sakura." I say looking over to her. "I need a towel."

"Why? Are you getting out now?"

I shake my head smiling. "Nope."

"Ah, well okay…" She says confused but passes me her towel all the same. I carry it above my head as I near my way to the boys wall.

"Ne, Ruby are you being a reverse peeping Tom?" I smile at her at shake my head.

"Follow my lead." I say, as I wrap the towel around myself.

"Um… okay."

I climb up the wall and smile.

"Naruto-chan~" I say waving to him.

"R-Ruby?! What the hell are you doing?!" He shouts.

"We're out of towels and Sakura's cold!" I shout again looking down at Sakura who now understands the plan that I formed for no reason.

"Yeah! Not only that but Ruby stole mine!"

"Hey you said I could use it!" I yell at her.

"Naruto just get me one!"

"Ah… sure thing Sakura-chan!" He says quickly wrapping his towel so his manhood is not revealed.

"It's not big anyway." Sai says looking at me watching Naruto shock I almost fall back so I quickly grab the bamboo like pillars to support me as I lean over and begin to shout at him a blush stamped on my face.

"I WASN'T THINKING ABOUT THAT!" I shout.

"Your towel fell."

"Eh?" I ask looking down noticing my towel on Sakura's head, "Eh?!"

Naruto then looks over and I swear shot all of his blood from his nose. I try to cover up, fail then fall back into the hot spring.

Lesson learned: Towels suck.


A/N: I have never written such a perverted chapter in my life… I probably have… but still… if you like it review it (just three more reviews til I hit seventy! 67 made me write 6 pages in three hours… (hope it's not sloppy) imagine what seventy would do!

Lot's of love and adoration,
