An overnight stay
The First Sign
The next day, the teenagers are gathered silently at the gates of Konoha Village. Ino is kind of irritated since they're waiting for two more people. She kept on waving to herself as if her hands can produce air to cool herself. Hinata is sat back to back with Tenten. They all have their backpacks with them, though. It's just two days and one night at the trek. Neji have his own bag, too, and he's leaning against the wall with his arms crossed. Sasuke was up at the tree, shading himself from the ray of sunlight. Shikamaru sat on his own bag with his one hand supporting his chin. So, they're just waiting for...
"That damn oversized forehead girl! Why is she taking so long?!" Ino yelled, placing her hands on her waist and standing guard at the center of the gate.
As if on cue, Sakura appeared with Naruto behind her. They're both running. The black haired boy up on the tree heard Sakura's heavy breathing and noticed something behind her and Naruto... a group of fanboys... His eyes twitched and cast down his eyes to the group.
"INO!! RUN!!" Sakura shouted, well, maybe to save her friends from the stampede from their back.
The teenagers immediately disappeared with their things, including Sakura and Naruto who were running before. When the fanboys noticed their disappearance all of them sighed in dismayed and went back to the village. After a minute of silence, the teenagers reappeared all in the ground.
"And you even brought your damn fanclub along the way." Shikamaru teased while the girls started chuckling.
Sakura blushed on this comment that she sticks out her tongue and cast her eyes down, "Sorry..."
Ino recovered in frustration commanded the group, "So what're we waiting for? Let's ride!"
Naruto started looking for a vehicle nearby, "Hey what're we going to use? There's no van or anything out there."
Ino hit Naruto in the head as she pointed her finger to the different direction, "YOU IDIOT! OF COURSE WE'RE GOING TO USE MOUNTAIN BIKE, MORON!"
Then there are eight mountain bikes aligned against the wall. Sure beats them, Ino's relatives are damn rich. And well, this is part of the trip, an adventure. They started equipping themselves and hopped on the bike. Ino said she'll lead the way since she has the map and the mastermind of this activity. Kicking the pedals, she led the group and behind her was Shikamaru.
------------------------------------------
'It's really hot in here...' Sakura thought while following the group. [Damn you Ino-pig!] Her inner said yelled while pointing her index finger at the front, to Ino, to be precise.
She breathes heavily again, like the other girls do. They've been like cycling almost all day. They've their own breakfast before they meet, but this biking trip is exhausting them so easily. Neji noticed the girls' exhaustion. Then he looked at his friends, the boys, if they're tired or what. Well, they're not. Boys really have a huge storage of energy. The black haired one looked worriedly to his front, that pink haired teenager who is panting so heavily.
"Hey guys, let's take a break." Tenten, the brown haired teenager with two buns fixed on top of her head, suggested.
Ino clasped the breaks and the group followed. It's a great idea to take a break, but... in the middle of nowhere? The group started observing their surroundings. There are large trees, hot ray sunlight, birds, bushes.. and behind the bushes, well, how lucky, a crystal clear stream. They leaned the bikes on the nearest trees then placed their bags at a circle form as they walked near the stream and drank from it. Naruto, who felt so hot, decided to take off his clothes and jumped to the stream.
"This is great! Hey you guys it's refreshing!!" He shouted when he emerged from the water.
The boys started to take off their shirts and dived with Naruto. As for the girls, they just sat beside the stream, chatting and playing with the cool water.
"Ino, you should've atleast check the temperature of this weather..." Sakura commented while swaying her legs at the water.
"We're doing an outdoor activity so expect hot temperature ok?" Ino retorted and somehow noticed Hinata's glanced to... 'Naruto?! Now, what's in her and with that stealing glances?'
She narrowed her eyes from Hinata then to Naruto. To the boys' side, Naruto started drowning Sasuke then accidentally splashed water to Shikamaru where in turn trying to return the splash when Neji accidentally appeared right in front of Shikamaru. Which, in short, started a water fight.
'Now that's cool.' Ino commented in her thoughts.
How she wished they could just take off their clothes and do the same thing with the boys. They're girls, teens. They should have atleast be embarrassed if they do that. Ino sighed, then all of a sudden, someone pulled her hands directly from the water.
"WHAT THE--?!" The remaining three girls heard a large splash from the water.
As Ino rise from the water, "WHO THE HELL DID THAT!!!" Her eyes started flaring that she immediately turned her glances to the boys, thinking that somebody from them did that.
"Ino, behind you." Tenten voiced out and pointed to someone behind her.
When Ino turned around, she saw a brown haired guy swimming, rather escaping, from her. Her ears started to produce smoke like a steam and her face starting to get red.
"SHIKAMARU!!!"
As his name shouted in the air, she immediately chased the poor guy. The girls who were laughing their hearts out didn't notice that the remaining three boys are now under the water, in front of them, preparing to pull them down also. Under the water, Naruto signaled Sasuke and Neji to pull Sakura and Tenten's legs as he would pull Hinata's. At the surface, the girls' continued their laughs until the boys from under water pulled their legs to get themselves wet in the process.
"AAAHH!!" Sakura who was pulled by Sasuke screamed when...
"OH PLEA--!!!" Tenten was cut off when she immediately submerged in the water.
"OHH!!" Hinata was blushing when she saw the blonde guy, Naruto, pulled her legs.
Being pulled altogether, the girls' eyes where tightly shut. When the green eyed Sakura opened her eyes only to see Sasuke right in front of her, she began to blush and immediately rise from the stream with a splash, to get air, actually. Sasuke followed her and rise up from the water as well. The others did the same and started laughing. But Tenten immediately clung herself to Neji's back and started drowning him in the process, a revenge. Unfortunately, Neji pulled her arms again in the water where she would be drowned again. After some splashes, Tenten arose from the water.
"NEJI! You'll pay dearly for that!" Neji hastily swam before Tenten cling to his back again.
The remaining four started laughing until Naruto decided to join Ino, Shikamaru and the latter two for a water fight. So to get a partner, she pulled Hinata and swim to their six friends. Sakura suddenly stopped laughing when she saw Naruto pulling Hinata.
'If Ino is chasing Shikamaru then Tenten chasing Neji and Naruto tagged Hinata all the way... I'm left with...' She gulped the words then moved her eyes to her side.
"What're we waiting for?" Sasuke asked, grabbing Sakura's arms before they miss the water fight.
[HELL YEAH! SASUKE'S WITH ME!]
