Naruto – Viva La Bam Style
A/N: My friends do the Viva La Bam Scavenger Hunt every month and I was just thinking about how funny it would be if the Naruto crew tried it. Hopefully the things going on in my head will actually be funny to other people as well. Uh, Naruto and the gang are older, 'cause I say so. And for the purpose of this story, all that 'Sasuke running off to join Orrochimaru' stuff never happened. Alright, good.
Disclaimer: I don't own the characters from Naruto. Just borrowing them for my story. I don't own Viva La Bam either...
Part One. The hunt begins. By bleedformeee.
Sasuke leaned back against the wall, clearly agitated. Naruto sighed and rubbed his eyes with the palms of his hands. Sakura pouted and slumped to the ground.
"Ugh, he's never going to get here," Sakura wailed. "It's been three hours! Let's just go home."
"Such a bad attitude, Sakura," came the teasing voice of their sensei as he appeared before them, his silver hair blowing in the late afternoon breeze. Sakura glared daggers at the man before she began her tirade.
"Where the HELL have you been? You said to meet at 3:00 pm. It's 6:08. What were you thinking? Have you ever heard of a little something called punctuality? It's a very important part of one's character! It angers people when you're late, because you're wasting their time. It conveys the message that you don't care whether they have better things to do or not!" She trailed off when she noticed her sensei was no longer listening to her, but rather chatting with the blonde boy who sat next to her. "DAMN IT, KAKASHI-SENSEI! Did you even hear a word I said?"
Kakashi looked over toward Sakura. "Yeah, Sakura. I heard you. I'm Sorry I was late. I had... better things to do..."
"AND YOU THINK WE DIDN'T!?!"
"Oi, calm down, Sakura-chan. Do we get a super cool and dangerous mission today, Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto squealed.
"Well, about that... There is no mission today... but there is something we will be doing. You can call it... training. The three rookie genin teams will be having a little contest."
"YEAH!" Naruto shouted, "We're so gonna win! Because our team has the almighty, all powerful UZUMAKI NARUTO!" He jumped around thrusting his fist into the air in premature victory.
"Shut up, idiot. What kind of contest?" Sasuke asked.
"A scavenger hunt. Asuma, Kurenai, and I were discussing how it would really benefit you guys to do some exercises on gathering, er-data... and stuff in a certain amount of time..."
(LIES-ALL LIES! We will now travel into the past 10 minutes)
-x-
"This is some funny shit." Asuma giggled, trying desperately to take a drag off his cigarette. He was having a hard time doing so while in hysterics. The three jounins were crowded around a small television, intently watching the display.
"Shouldn't you go meet your team, Kakashi? I thought you were supposed to meet up with them three hours ago?" Kurenai asked.
"Nah, they're fine. Plus, Viva La Bam is an awesome show," Kakashi said, pointing at the screen.
"More like outrageous. Can you imagine people actually doing this? This is the strangest scavenger hunt I've ever seen." Kurenai replied.
"Hmm." Kakashi wondered aloud, his right eye gleaming.
"What are you thinking?" Kurenai asked.
"I was just thinking... How about we make a wager. We give the Viva La Bam scavenger hunt list to each one of our teams. Fifty bucks says my team can get more points than either of your teams." Kakashi was grinning, as far as the other two jounins could tell.
Kurenai looked hesitant. "How would we get them to even go on the hunt? They'd surely refuse."
"Not if we told them it was training..." Kakashi said.
"YEAH! It can be a gathering exercise, to see whose team is best at gathering information..." Asuma added.
"I dunno, guys... it seems a little shady to make bets on our students." Kurenai said.
"Chicken." The male jounins teased.
"$50? Lets make it $100. And no helping the teams. They have to do everything themselves." Kurenai demanded, angry with the other two for thinking she was afraid.
"Deal." The three shook hands and parted. "Tonight, 8:00 pm. Gather your teams. Meet at the Ninja Academy by the tire swing. Don't be late."
"You should talk, Kakashi." Kurenai teased as she and Asuma left to gather their teams.

(BACK TO PRESENT)
"A scavenger hunt? Are you serious? Little kids go on scavenger hunts." Sasuke complained, while Naruto leapt around, excited about the upcoming competition.
"But this scavenger hunt is not for little kids. You will notice the tasks that need to be completed are very mature. Now let's head out to meet the other teams and receive instructions." Kakashi started off for the academy and the three genins followed closely behind.
-x-
"Okay, everyone. Listen up. I will be handing out one list per team so don't lose it. You have until midnight to complete as many tasks as possible. Meet back here at midnight. We will need proof that each task was completed, so each team will also receive one camera and two rolls of film. Use them wisely. Okay, ready?"
"Wait a minute. How is this supposed to benefit us again?" Sakura asked.
"Yeah, what's the point?" Ino chimed in.
"Well, er, it's for practice... in completing tasks in a given time frame..." Kakashi began.
"Yeah, and this exercise will help you manage your time productively..." Asuma added.
"Yes, and you'll have to prioritize..." Kurenai added. "This is a competition after all, and whichever team gets the most points wins a prize."
"They do? OH! Yeah, they do... heh." Kakashi trailed off.
"What kind of prize?" Kiba asked, slightly more interested.
"You'll have to wait and see." Kakashi replied.
Naruto stood up and addressed the other two rookie groups. "I, Uzumaki Naruto, will NOT lose to you guys! Our team will definitely win!"
"Shut up, idiot." Sasuke said in reply to Naruto's little outburst.
"This is so troublesome." Shikamaru sighed.
Each jounin handed their team a list. "Now have fun. See you all at midnight," Kurenai called as the three jounins retreated.
-x-
Sasuke scanned the list he held in his left hand while trying to bat Naruto away with his right hand. "Let ME see, let ME see!" Naruto was whining.
"Damn Kakashi-sensei. Mature tasks my ass. Sakura, get the camera ready." Sasuke ordered.
"Okay, ready." She replied.
"Good, take a picture right... now!" Upon saying the word 'now', Sasuke swiftly kicked Naruto in the balls and Sakura obediently snapped the picture.
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?!?!" Naruto cried, clutching the now tender area.
"This is going to be easier than I thought. We have 20 points already." Sasuke smirked.
"Sasuke-kun, how did we get 20 points already?" Sakura asked. "All you did was kick Naruto..."
"Number 34, Get kicked in the privates, 20 points," Sasuke read aloud. "This could get interesting..."
A/N: So is it even amusing at all? Good? Bad? I won't continue it if no one's interested. So uh, review. ^_^
