Target Practice: Retrieval
A/N: This will probably be my last break chapter before I head back to proper requests. :) Some credit does go to Ruby-san for this one. ;)
"Aw, I can't believe we got this lame mission. Shouldn't we be doing something more important?" Naruto whined.
"Okay brat, listen up. For starters: you weren't even asked to come on the mission; you just tagged along and for seconds: who knows what juicy blackmail material we may find?" Anko grinned sneakily at the blond beside her.
"Who cares? I just came along to make sure I got my ramen off you." Naruto grinned embarrassedly. "Blackmail can wait until tomorrow."
"Shut it brat. There's something up ahead." With that she wrapped an arm around Naruto and leapt upwards into what appeared to be a thornbush oddly located in tree branches. "Arriving! Oh and what do we have here? Did wittle Miss Piggy get seen and hogtied by some overexcited hunter?" Ino would have been thrashing around in rage… had it not been for the fact she hogtied with duct tape, had her clothes shredded, an apple in her mouth and was dumped in the middle of a thornbush with a sign saying I am a hag! Here me roar! Naruto, unable to control his urges, pulled out a camera and merrily snapped away.
"Mmm, blackmail… looks like the ramen can wait." Anko could only smirk at the look on Naruto's face: it easily put Orochimaru to shame.
