Chapter Thirty-Six: Gotta Cheat

Sakura stared up at Obito as he glared into the distance, he might actually look thoughtful if Hatake Kakashi wasn't giggling like a school girl while reading porn just behind him.

Obito turned around with a furious blush. "Oi! Bakakashi, stop it!"

Kakashi-san peeked over with a bored eye. "Maa, don't mind me."

"You're reading porn in public." Ino scoffed in disdain.

"It's literature." Kakashi shrugged. "Something your inexperienced mind wouldn't understand."

"What's that?!"

"Kakashi, this is serious!"

The man cocked his head. "Hm?"

"Do you realise what this means?!" Obito grabbed the girl's shoulders. "Sakura could be the grand prize winner of a contest endorsed by our all-time favorite show!"

Ino swooned. "She could win a guest staring in the show!"

"I don't think so, Ino-chan." Sakura's eye twitched.

"Dream big Sakura-chan, you can't limit yourself!"

"Or she could get something really cool, like... a sword!" Tenten smirked.

"It's not that kind of show." Hanabi said.

"I hope you win Sakura-nee!"

"A-as do I."

"Thank you, Moegi-chan, Hinata-chan."

"Are you all serious?"

The group turned to regard the silver haired man before dismissing him.

"A bunch of celebrities will be there and some authors too, I think." Ino jumped up and down.

"Authors?"

"Yeah!" Tenten chirped. "There were a few of them like: Yamagi-san, Tao-san, Mirimi-san, and Jiriya-san."

"The author of Icha Icha?!"

"I guess...?"

"Oh my sage..." Obito facepalmed.

"The grand prize winner gets a signed special book along with a mystery prize and to meet the cast." Hanabi shrugged again.

"And maybe a guest staring too~!" Ino sang.

"Not likely." Hanabi muttered.

Kakashi's eye gleamed, Sakura couldn't suppress the shudder that shot up her spine.

"Sakura-chan," The pinkette flinched when he placed heavy hands on her bony shoulders. "You must win at all cost."

Sakura looked around the odd man using her eyes to plead with Obito, but the dark haired man was already glaring at the back of his friend's head.

"Bakakashi!" Obito shouted. "Stop using Sakura-chan to acquire porn!"

"It's literature." He emphasized as if he was explaining to a toddler.

The men flew into an argument on what was 'appropriate' reading material causing Hanabi to scoff. "How pathetic."

"Are we going to be like that when we get old?" Sakura frowned.

Tenten sighed. "Sage, I hope not."

"If we ever do, lobotomize me immediately." Ino sneered.

If the words or sentences on any chapters look weird or anything, it's beacuse I'm not used to 's weird format. It's such a weird set up, wattpad is easier to understand, but maybe that's just me. Bye~
