Author's Notes: YO!! I am so sorry that it took me so long to update this chapter! I have a serious case of writer's block…. I was having a hard time coming up with a plot for chapter 37. Please forgive the delay.

Chapter 37: Hokage Hunting

"Are we there yet?" Wade asked for the hundredth time within ten minutes.

"NO!!!!!!" Everybody else shouted at the top of their lungs. They have been on the trail of this Tsunade chick for two hours now, and were on their way to the Tea country. Wolverine was massaging his temples, trying his best to forget all of the other missions he had to share with that annoying man. Kiba was too busy thinking about finding Tsunade and helping Ino to care what Wade says. Shikamaru was gazing at the clouds that were passing overhead. And Naruto was doing weird tricks with swords to pass the time away. And quite frankly, this was just TOO boring for Deadpool to handle!

"When the hell are we going to get to that freaking country of Tea?!"

"At least three days, if we don't get distracted." Shikamaru sighed, walking a little bit faster. Wade yawned loudly.

"Yeah?! Well…I hope we go through the Decaf Coffee country on the way, because this is so BORING I am about to fall asleep!" The crimson wearing mercenary groaned as he pulled on his mask in frustration.

"Stop your complaining, Bub!" Wolverine growled. "Try calming down once in a while!" Wade snorted in laughter.

"You have absolutely no room to tell me to calm down, Logy! You tried to KILL me for replacing your sugar with salt! Now, I didn't know why you were so mad for! I drink my coffee with salt all the time! And it hasn't effected me!" Logan's claws popped out, and he started walking closer to Wade.

"That's because there are so many things wrong with you ALREADY! Salt has no effect on you!!" The X-Man then grabbed Wade by the collar of his costume. Wade looked at his hand, looked up and raised a eyebrow.

"Really, Logan? Violence? Is that your answer for everything? Maybe you should…Calm Down! HAHHAHAHAHAHAH!!!! That's funny, right?!!! Cause…you were just saying how I should calm down?! HAHAAAHA!" Deadpool was reduced to tears, as the boys themselves stifled laughs of their own. Wolverine growled, and threw Wade onto the ground.

'This trip will haunt me for the rest of my life…..' Wolverine moaned in his head, when all of a sudden…he smelt someone in the trees behind them. He walked up to Deadpool, and whispered into his ear. "There is someone following us, Wilson…"

"I've noticed….." He then turned, pulled out his dual action Mac-11 guns, and fired at the tree. Then…out leapt the old pervert Jiraiya.

"DON'T SHOOT! DON'T SHOOT!!!" He shouted as he hit the ground to avoid getting shot. Naruto and Wade recognized him, and raised their eyebrows.

'This guy again?'

(Back in The Village)

It was a girls day out back in the village. Hinata, Kurenai, Ino, Temari, Tsume, and even Kin were all sitting at a little family owned coffee shop. Kin has decided to leave the sound village ranks and switched to the leaf. She isn't that popular among the ninja ranks, since she used to be a sound ninja, but she did find some people who didn't hate her. "I hope the boys are alright." Kurenai began as she took a sip of tea.

"I'm sure they'll be alright, Kurenai…" Tsume reassured. "With Kiba's sense of smell, nothing could go wrong." Ino smiled when she got to thinking about her new boyfriend, which wasn't missed by his mother. "You sure are lucky, you know that, right Ino?" The blond Yamanaka looked up at the Inuzuka head and blushed. "You have a boyfriend that is willing to go and bring back the future Hokage to heal you legs." Ino blushed and giggled.

"Yeah…. I know." She then remembered Hinata, and looked at her with a sly smile. "Hey Hinata…. I heard somewhere that you and Naruto…kissed! Is that true?" The Hyuuga heir smiled.

"Yep. It happened on the hospital bed, and it was magical." Ino squealed in a girly manner. And while she and Hinata began to giggle about their new boyfriends, Kurenai looked at Tsume.

"Well? What about you?" Kurenai asked, with a mile long grin on her face. The feral women looked at her with a raised eyebrow.

"Well what? What do you mean?" Tsume asked innocently.

"You know. What is happening between you and Logan? He has been living with you and your clan for quite a while now. You can't really expect us to believe there is nothing going on between you two." Despite her nature, the Inuzuka head allowed a blush to appear on her cheeks.

"That stubborn fool and me have nothing going on. He is really rude and treats me with little respect. And after all I have done for him. The only reason I allow him to stay in is because he is teaching Kiba new attacks." Kurenai laughed.

"That is because you DON'T respect him. Wade told me over and over that you need to be just as stubborn and rude to get through to him." This concept confused Tsume. "Basically, you need to be the dominate one. You know? The Alpha Female?" Tsume thought about it, and nodded. Then Kurenai turned her attentions to the blond haired kunoichi Temari. "And you?" Temari put down her tea, and sighed.

"Shikamaru's parents are allowing me to stay with them, instead of going to jail." She began in a soft voice. "I have to help around the house as often as I can, so I'm always busy." Tsume interrupted Temari by raising her hand. "Yes?"

"You are saying they are allowing you to stay with them?" Temari nodded. "But I heard they walked in on you and Shikamaru….." She paused, signifying what she meant without saying it. All of the other girls looked at her unbelievably, all blushing fiercely. Temari turned bright red, and looked down in embarrassment at the memory.

"Umm…. Yes. They did walk in on us…doing it…… which is why I am grateful they are allowing me to stay with him in his room." Hearing this, Ino and Hinata squealed girlishly.

"Wow…. I bet Shikamaru is pretty happy to go to bed." Tsume joked, earning some giggles from every girl…every girl, except Kin, who was looking away and drinking her tea. Kurenai noticed that she looked rather…sad.

"Is there something wrong, dear?" The former sound kunoichi looked at the older one, and shrugged.

"Sorry…. I am just feeling weird. I feel as if I don't fit in her. And almost everybody hates me, because I used to be a sound ninja." Tsume looked at the sad and hopeless expression on the girl's face, and sighed.

"Don't let those pricks get you down, Kin. They are just ignorant…." Kin's expression didn't change. "There most be someone who at least doesn't treat you badly." Kin then blushed, thinking about a certain Aburame boy who saved her during the invasion.

"W…well…. There is this boy named Shino Aburame who saved me during the attack." The two women smiled when they heard about that. Kakashi already filled them in about Shino volunteering to save her.

"The Aburame clan is well known for being peaceful towards fellow people and nature. So it would make sense that he would save you." Kurenai stated, as she took another drink of her tea. But Ino saw the blush, and being as she is, decided to dig into it.

"So…. You LIKE Shino?" A deeper shade of red grew on the former sound kunoichi's face, and didn't answer. Ino took this as a "Yes". "So you do! I knew it!" The Yamanaka girl giggled happily. Kin looked down, miserable that she couldn't come up with a excuse for the blushing. And completely by coincidence, said Aburame walked down the street, looking for Kin. Tsume smiled devilishly and pointed in his direction. Kin turned, and saw Shino walking up behind her.

"Hello Kin. My parents have instructed me to show you around the town today." He began in his normal emotionless voice. "If you are done, we could get started now." Kin smiled softly, and finished her tea.

"Th…that sounds nice…." She spoke in a small voice, barely hearable. "Th…thank you." She then got up, and waved good-bye to the others. The other young girls giggled mischievously, while the two older women merely smiled and waved back.

"You know….." Ino began. "I think we three should help Kin and Shino get together." Hinata and Temari looked at her, and smiled.

"You are such a wanno be matchmaker, Ino." Hinata said, finishing off her tea. Ino laughed.

"Yeah…I know. But what can I say? It's in my nature to be nosey." Ino agreed, sounding proud to be so nosey.

(Meanwhile, Somewhere Deep in Sound Country)

Deep in a underground cave, there was a high tech lab being finished. There were men in big yellow jumpsuits and large gas masks connecting the last wires to the machines. "The lab is almost complete…." A dark and snake like voice hissed from the darkness. Beside him, stood a middle aged man, wearing a army suit, with many metals attached on his chest.

"Yes…" He spoke in a low and rough voice. "It took years to complete, but we will have the perfect testing lab at our disposal." The man, known as Stryker finished. The snake like man snickered.

"Yes…and pretty soon, we will have the perfect weapon. We have the perfect test subject, too. This…Sasuke Uchiha should prove quite the gin pig." Then he began to leave, without saying why. The general frowned at this.

"Where are you going, Orochimaru? Aren't you going to stay when we begin the testing on the boy?" The Sannin looked at his partner, and shook his head.

"No…. I have a old friend to pay a visit. When I return, I expect to see results." Stryker nodded his head.

"You have my word…when you return, you will see the third best killing machine ever to be created…" Orochimaru raised a eyebrow at the "third best" comment.

"Third best? Whom are the two better killing machines?" The army man looked at the ninja with a serious look.

"Logan, AKA Wolverine…. And Wade Wilson, AKA Deadpool." Orochimaru grinned.

"Well, them make a even better one, Stryker. Do what you can to create the best damned weapon you can. I expect nothing second or third rate…you should know that by know." And with that, the ninja disappeared in a puff of smoke. Now alone with a bunch of soldiers and scientists, the general and his men went to testing on their new project… Weapon XII.
