Konnichi wa,
minna-san! I'm glad you all liked my
fic!
I will be putting up suggested BGM now
that the program has started. It's for
what I think the chapters go by.
There'll be more than one, however, I could only think of one
today. That doesn't mean I have few
songs…does 300+ mp3's sound good to you?
Okay? Good! Now read and thank you!

CHAPTER 2
Call Out, First Down!
BGM: Aura (.hack)
"What project are you talking
about?"
"It's called the 'Battle Royale
Act'. It actually has a longer name
than that, but I don't know what it's called.
You recognize the name, right?
Yes, good movie. It's in video
games, only this is one game you can't restart."
Lee raised his hand and stood up
from his desk. "I'd like to ask one!"
"Shoot."
"What do you mean we can't
restart? I mean…this isn't a fight to
the death…is it?" Orochimaru remained
silent for a few minutes, leaving Lee hanging.
He then looked up, smiling.
"Actually, yes. You saved me a
bit of explaining, Mr. Rock Lee.
Thanks." Lee sat back down, his
eyes wider than dinner plates, slightly more than usual.
"As the Green String Bean said, the
Battle Royale Act is a fight to the death.
You'll fight for three days until only one survives. Tape!" An Anbu whipped out a tape
from a side pouch and popped it in the VCR.
He turned on the television and pressed play on the remote. "Watch the very annoying lady with the funky
army suit on, okay? Pay attention now,
kiddos!" smiled Orochimaru, his voice not having the hint of delight in any
word at all.
"Yo, minna-san! Konnichi wa! (Yo, everyone! Hello!)"
Orochimaru rolled his eyes. "God, here we go…"
"You have been chosen to
participate in this year's Battle Royale!
Congratulations!"
The annoying girl donning a green
army cap and matching short-shorts, along with a bright orange t-shirt and
countless numbers of bracelets, rings, and a "sparkling" amount of glitter
waved her arms around and spoke in a squeaky voice. The girls all thought she looked extremely fashionable, but they
all agreed with Orochimaru. She was
annoying.
"This island is empty, seeing
that we had everyone evacuated! So
there's no one home but you!" She
waved her arms even more. "As you
can see, this island is separated into different zones with this imaginary
grid! Your teacher will announce the
areas that become danger zones every six hours! That's four time a day!
So you'd better keep your ears open!"
Orochimaru proceeded to bang his
head on his desk.
"Well, I hope you notice the
necklaces you have on! They're pretty
spiffy, and they're also waterproof and shockproof! They're also permanent!"
Kiba stopped trying to chew the
necklace off Naruto and sat up abruptly as if nothing had happened.
"These necklaces let us know
where you are on the island and help us keep track of your vital status! If you are caught in a danger zone or try to
take it off, the necklaces will let us know, then our computers will transmit
radio waves that will inform your necklaces to go – BOOM!"
All the shinobi gasped and jumped
back. Sakura clutched onto Sasuke's
shirt, her eyes wide open with fear.
"We don't want that to happen,
so please, don't try to do that, okay?" She made a mock-sad face and tipped
her head to the side, her hands under her eyes as if she were crying. "Oh, and if there is no kill made within
twenty-four hours, or if there is more than one survivor by the end of three
days, all necklaces will detonate, so fight hard, okay?"
"You'll also get survival
packs! Inside is a bottle of water,
some food, a map and compass with a marker to write down danger zones, a
flashlight, and a weapon! Weapons are
random, so maybe you might get something good!" She picked up a large
hatchet, faking a scream as the weapon came into screen. "Oh!
This one's super lucky! And you
can bring your stuff, since girls might need any essentials!"
Orochimaru slammed his head on the
desk even harder. "I hate that
scream." Whump!
"You'll be called one-by-one, so
get your stuff and go at it, minna-san!
Good luck!"
Several Anbu rolled out two carts
full of large, forest-green bags.
"Boy #1: Uzumaki Naruto!"
Naruto picked up his blue backpack
and ran out the door, barely catching his survival bag. He tripped a few times down the hallway of
the abandoned school.
"Girl #1: Yamanaka Ino!"
Ino looked to Shikamaru for a few
moments and picked up her bag, slowly making her way to the front to retrieve
her survival bag. Once she was tossed
her bag, she turned to the class for the last time and ran out the door.
"Boy #2: Kisame!"
The large member of "Akatsuki"
trudged toward the front and grabbed a survival bag. He slung it over his shoulder and strode out the door and into
the dark hallway.
"Girl #2: Ten-Ten!"
"Neji…" she whispered. Neji just nodded as a bid of farewell,
handing Ten-Ten her bright red backpack.
Ten-Ten took the bag, stared Neji in the eyes, and ran towards the door,
catching her survival bag in the process.
"Boy #3: Yakushi Kabuto!"
Kabuto pushed up his glasses and
walked to the front of the room, catching his survival bag and simply gliding
out the door.
"Girl #3: Haruno Sakura!"
"H-Here!" She turned to Sasuke, who
stroked her cheek and nodded.
"Sasuke-kun…" Sakura whispered.
Sasuke motioned to the door with his head, not even smiling. Sakura grabbed her white backpack and ran
out the door, nearly tripping as she caught her survival pack.
"Boy #4 Aburame Shino!"
Shino grabbed his bag and ran to
get his survival bag. "Come, Bee-chan,"
he whispered to his beloved insect as he ran out the door and into the hallway.
"Girl #4: Hyuuga Hinata! That's the last of the girls!"
Hinata shyly picked up her bag and
twiddled her fingers as she walked/jogged to the front and grabbed her survival
bag. "Umm…Ja ne, minna-san." She waved
and ran out the door.
"Boy #5: Hyuuga Neji!"
Neji stood up and grabbed his bag
in one motion, then ran out the door and caught his survival bag, all in one
motion. Wait up, cousin.
"Boy #6: Gaara!"
Gaara, being closest to the door,
held his arm out to grab his bag. In a
swirl of sand, he was gone.
"Boy #7: Rock Lee!"
"Here! I'll save you, Sakura-chan!" Lee grabbed his bag and ran to the
front, where he stopped and caught the survival bag tossed to him. "Green is my favorite color!" he exclaimed
and ran out the door. "Weird kid, that
String Bean," sighed Orochimaru.
"Boy #8: Akimichi Chouji!"
"I don't wanna go! I don't wanna!" he wailed. Shikamaru grabbed Chouji's scarf and dragged
him across the room toward the baggage rack.
"Take your bag and go, Chouji," Shikamaru hissed. Chouji obeyed and took his survival bag and
stumbled out…more like rolled out of the building.
Sakura sat behind a tree near the
school, waiting for Sasuke to come out.
She was slightly worried about him ever since the announcement of their
dueling to the death. "Sasuke-kun…" she
whispered, flopping her head onto her bag.
"Are you going to play the game too?" she asked indirectly to the dark
haired shinobi. Sakura's rose bangs
curtained her emerald eyes as shining crystals poured out in tiny
droplets. "Are you going to kill me?"
"Iie…I would never…why would I,
anyway?" came a soft, yet strong voice from above.
"Am I dreaming?" Sakura looked up
to find Sasuke smirking, his arm outstretched.
"Sasuke-kun!" She jumped into his arms, and surprisingly, Sasuke wrapped
his arms around her. "Sasuke-kun! This can't be happening!"
"It is. Now come on if you don't want to get killed."
Running. Out of breath.
"Naruto-kun!" cried Hinata. She
had to find him. She had to make sure
he wasn't playing the game.
"Naruto-kun."
"Hn? What is it, Hinata-chan?" Naruto leaned against a tree, eating
his given loaf of bread.
"Naruto-kun, are you playing too?"
"Psh! Why should I? I'd rather
kill Kakashi-sensei for not letting me read his nasty book!"
Hinata chuckled. "Then can I stay with you?"
"Okey dokey." Naruto gulped down the last bits of bread
before digging into his bag and searching for is weapon. "NANDAYO?!?! What the hell is this?!" He pulled out a flimsy, purple rubber
chicken. Frustrated, he grumbled to
Hinata, "Whaddya have?"
"Ah…I have…I have-" Hinata pulled
out two egg-shaped explosives out of her pack.
"I have two grenades."
"Kuso. Well, you'll have to-" Naruto was pelted with kunai and shuriken
from behind. He slumped to the floor,
nothing but a corpse in a pool of fresh blood.
"Naruto-kun!" Hinata
shrieked. She panicked. Naruto was the first to die? The boy who vowed to become Hokage…his dream
would never come true. She would never
be with him, nor know of his feelings toward her. "Naruto!" Hinata picked up their bags and ran the other direction.
The figure clad in pink emerged
from the bushes. "I'm sorry…Gomen ne,
Naruto-san, Hinata-chan," whispered Ten-Ten.
She walked up to Naruto's corpse and dug out the shuriken and
kunai. "Neji…wait for me…"
