Hi everyone! First of all, I wanna thank somebody for reading and giving me some nice reviews....thanks Wormkaizer!!! (Did I spell it right?) Anyways and also thanks to all of the other reviewers! (Hugs)
Second, this chapter contains a lot of 'cute-siness' at the beginning, so be aware, some people just don't like that kinda stuff....but if you do...well... you'll be alright.
Well that's it, thanks for stopping by!
On the bus...
Hinata glanced at Naruto as he walked towards the seat, she blushed at the fact that she was gonna be so close to him during the whole trip; she was really happy about this and started playing with her fingers in emotion, Naruto stared at her weird reaction-Huh? Hinata, are you ok?-Naruto's voice interrupted her thoughts, and she hadn't even noticed that he was already seated by her side.
-Huh? ....Yes...N-Naruto-Kun...I'm.....alright....-She smiled nervously.
- ....Hmm....you know what?-Naruto looked around-I'm happy I get to sit with you, the rest is just annoying- He smiled- (Except for Sakura-chan!)
Hinata blushed even more, but she felt even happier; he had just said he was happy to seat with her! This made Hinata's heart beat really fast, and the only thing she wished she could do, was hug him real tight....(I'm happy too Naruto-kun...)
-(Oh God, oh God, oh God!)-Sakura thought excitedly while looking at Sasuke seated by her side, they were on the last seat, and for her luck nobody was seated by the other side-(Oh God, I feel like fainting! I'm gonna be next to Sasuke-kun during the whole trip!) Sakura's heart was about to come out, she smiled, Sasuke glanced at her-(Damn...this is bad...)-One side of him thought....well... the side that would always try to keep him away from things that weren't his revenge, the wish to kill his damn brother Itachi; the side that would always keep him dark, bitter, hard and cold.....He kind of hated it, but he thought it was the best, otherwise he would never accomplish his goals......But there was also this other side that would think, "not everything has to be dark..." and would make him open up a bit and feel good by her side...but unfortunally, this side was well hidden inside him, and he didn't want to open it, hiding his feelings for her at the same time...-He glared at her, making her smile fade away...
- .......Don't worry Sasuke-kun....I won't bother you...- She said softly after lowering her head, he quickly looked away trying to evade her sad look.
-(Oh great! This is not what I expected!)-Ino thought while glancing at Shikamaru-(okay, he's my friend and all, but I wanted to sit with Sasuke-kun!)- She glared at Shikamaru now; he glanced at her and noticed the glare.
-What?-He mumbled.
-Huh? I'm not saying anything!- Ino said angrily.
-...Tsk....your glare talks by itself...
-Glare? I'm not glaring at you!
-(Oh, there they go again)-Chouji rolled his eyes.-( I don't know why they've been arguing so often...)
-Look....it's not my fault that I have to sit with you, I didn't assign the seats....-He mumbled angrily with his usual bored and annoyed gesture-Do you think I'm happy?
-Well you should be! You couldn't ask for more!
-Yeah right...like if you're somebody....-He chuckled
-How dare you! Of course I am somebody! I am the prettiest and smartest girl around Konoha!-Ino yelled almost crying while holding her fist on the air.
-Not for me...-Shikamaru said calmly- For me you're just another annoying, bossy and ugly girl that's always picking up a fight...
-(OH LORD!)-Chouji slapped his forehead.
-ASK ME IF I CARE!! YOU'RE NOBODY EITHER!!! You're just a freaking lazy bum, who's always mumbling or complaining about something, and that doesn't care about anything!!!-Ino yelled, everyone on the bus was staring at them including the senseis.
-I think those two was a bad idea-Kurenai said.
-Nah, just leave them there-Asuma smiled.
-Whatever, are you done?- Shikamaru rolled his eyes.
-No, I'm not done!! I can't believe you actually don't care! How could you be like this?!!!
-Whatever.........
-You idiot! I swear you're gonna be sorry for this!
-.....whatever.....
-Whatever then! - Ino abruptly sat down and crossed her arms- Hmph!
-Wow...-Kurenai said, Asuma smiled same as Kakashi.
-Hello everyone!-A chubby old man entered the bus-Sorry for being late, I am the bus driver- He smiled- We will be departing now, so get on your seats- He said while looking at Naruto walking and teasing the rest around the bus, then he entered the driver's cabin and started the engine.
-It was about time!- Naruto said. Soon the buses on the front started moving, and so did theirs, it was 4 a.m. now and it was dark outside, the far mountains and forest looked so peaceful covered by some mist, stars were still out, and it was really quiet except for the sound of the engines.
:O:
Some minutes later.....
The driver thought that everyone was still sleepy, and after taking a look of some of them falling asleep, he turned off the lights......Everything was darker and quieter now, the bus seem to be going faster......
Tenten glanced at Neji, he had his arms crossed, and was looking out the window with that serious look of his, but Tenten didn't mind, she knew he wasn't that cold and that he was actually a nice and loyal friend, but unfortunally she didn't want him as a friend, but as something more than that, so she was happy as hell that she got to sit next to him during the trip. – (I know! I'm gonna pretend that I'm asleep, and then lean on his shoulder so I can be!!)- Tenten thought, she smiled and the closed her eyes pretending to be sleeping, some seconds later she slowly leaned her head to the right and let it rest on his left shoulder, at that moment her heart stopped for a second waiting for his reaction......Neji slightly turned around and looked at her, Tenten tried her best to stay still, and to not laugh, she knew he was looking at her, the most predictable action was that Neji would push her away, but he didn't, he just let her rest on his shoulder.-( Well that's a good start...)-Tenten thought. –(But it feels so good to be so close to him...)
Hinata looked out the window, only forests and mountains could be seen under that beautiful navy blue sky, it was really windy, so she felt kind of cold and stirred at little, she didn't have that jacket anymore, but a white blouse with her family logo.
-Are you cold?-A voice suddenly said, she quickly looked by her side, to find Naruto's big sky blue eyes looking at her closely, her hear stopped beating.
-N-Naruto-Kun...I'm...
Here, have my jacket- He interrupted with a smile while taking off his jacket, Hinata's heart not only stopped but almost melted.
-N-N-Naruto-Kun......-She blushed.
-Put it on, it'll keep you from getting cold- He smiled again, Hinata slowly grabbed the jacket and put it on, it felt warm and comfortable.
-Thank you Naruto-Kun...-She said softly.
-Ah its nothing- He said and then turned around, Hinata stood still hugging her own arms and feeling the warmth...his warmth...
-(Damn!)-Kiba thought while holding his fist, Akamaru looked at him confused-(Out of everyone, she had to put her with him! And I have to sit behind them! Then he gives her his jacket and she accepts it! Could this get any worse!?!)- Kiba clenched his teeth.... (Why does this happen to me?!! Okay....just calm down....it doesn't mean anything will happen....right? .........Damn! I just can't stand it!!!)-He bit his own hand.....the blood slowly started slipping down......Akamaru stared at him sadly.....-It's alright......-He said.
Sakura hugged her knees as she looked outside the window, then she glanced at the boy by her side....he was already asleep, he still had his arms crossed, but for an instant, that cold and hard look had disappeared from his face- (He looks so adorable...)-Sakura smiled- ( Inner Sakura: So kawaii!!!)- Sasuke-Kun...- She whispered....why are you so cold to me? - (Inner Sakura: Who cares! Now's your chance! Hug him! He won't notice!)- So Sakura listened to her inner self, moved closer to him, wrapped her arms around him and then closed her eyes-( Yeah....this is how it should be....)-(Inner Sakura: Hell yeah! I'll never give up!!)
Ino took a glance around, everything was dark and quiet on the bus, then she turned around and looked at the boy she had just argued with...-Damn this sucks.....-He mumbled on his sleep while scratching his belly-(Shikamaru...I shouldn't have talk to you like that...we're friends.......maybe I should apologize.....yeah I'll do it later...I don't wanna wake him up.)- Ino thought with a smile while leaning against his arm and then falling asleep.
Kakashi turned around to check on how everyone was doing, since it was strange that some of them were quiet, starting with Naruto, but they were all sleeping peacefully – (Hmm.....I guess is too early....well it's been quiet long since they had such a long trip.....but they better be ready because a lot of things are awaiting, and this hasn't even started yet....)
:O:
Later on....
-GOOD MORNING!!-Naruto yawned loudly waking up the whole bus.
-Shut up!-Kiba said annoyed from behind him, but Naruto didn't pay attention, he looked out the window, the sun was out, and only an empty road could be seen.
-Hey, where are we?- He asked loudly; everyone was still waking up so no answer was heard due to no one knowing anyways, yawns and mumbles could be heard. Naruto looked around one more time, and noticed something big.- Hey, why aren't we moving?!!!- He yelled, just then everyone was suddenly awake.
-What did you say?!!- They all looked out the window. Kakashi stood up and walked up to the driver's cabin, he knocked, nobody seem to answer. – (what now?)- He thought.
-What's going on?-Kurenai asked him.
-He won't open...-Kakashi answered.
-Oh come on people! What's the big commotion? That driver must be taking a break that's why he stopped!-Kiba said.
-Well, that's very reasonable...-Kurenai said.
-But what if we crashed down, and we're stuck on the middle of nowhere?!!!-Naruto said desperately.
-Naruto, don't be so pessimistic!-Sakura said from the back.
-He's right! What if we're stuck?! What are we gonna do? We're gonna die from thirstiness and starvation?!!! Or worse! Some monster is gonna attack us and eat us alive!!!-Lee yelled nervously, everyone stared at him.
-Ahem! We're jounins and chuunins over here!! No monster is gonna eat us!!!- Naruto said.
-Ok, but what if we die from starvation!-Lee yelled again.
-Well.....that's another subject....-Naruto sighed, as he already felt hungry.
-Guys, don't worry, is alright...-Kakashi knocked on the driver's cabin again.
-Oh my! I'm too young to die on such a way!-Lee covered his face with his hands.
-Oh come on drama-boy, we're not gonna die or anything like that...-Tenten smacked him on the back.
-You're completely exaggerating...-Neji said serious.
-Oh my dear friends!! How could you be so carefree in such a desperate moment of tragedy?!-Lee cried, his hands expanded to the air, like if something was gonna fall right into them.
-...Are you sure, you didn't take drama lessons?-Neji asked.
-What the hell is up with the driver?!!- Naruto stood up.- Kakashi sensei, let's kick the door open!
-"........"-Kakashi stared at the door.
-...Um...is it just me...or is getting a little hot in here?- Asuma asked.
-Hmm....-Every one looked up to the roof were the air conditioner was....and apparently...it was off...
-I'll kick that door open!-Naruto stood up and walked up to the front.
-Naruto...-Kakashi who was behind him tried to stop him but...too late, Naruto had already kicked the door; inside laid the bus driver snoring.
-See told you he was taking a break.-Kiba appeared from behind.
-Wake up you old hag!!-Naruto shook the man.- why you didn't told us you were gonna stop!!!
-Um...Huh? What's going on?!!-The man asked desperately.
-And you ask?!! Why have you stopped?!!-Naruto asked.- It getting so goddamn hot out there, and you're sleeping here with the air conditioner off?!!!
-Ahem! Naruto, go back to your seat...let me handle this...-Kakashi said.
-...Tsk...fine....-Naruto angrily went back to his seat; the bus driver stood up.
-....Morning everyone....hehe...-He chuckled nervously at the deadly glares he was getting.- Um....err...
-Are we crashed down?!!!-Lee stood up desperately.
-NO!!!- Tenten and Neji yelled.
-Were you just taking a break?-Sakura asked.
-Why did you stopped on the middle of the road?- Ino asked.
-And on the middle of nowhere...-Shikamaru finished.
-Why the hell did you turn the air conditioners off?!!- Naruto groaned.
-Are we crashed down?!!!-Lee asked again.
-NO!!!- Tenten and Neji pushed him seated.
-Is there are place around here were we can stop for breakfast?-Chouji moaned.
-Why didn't you tell us you were gonna stop?- Asuma asked.
-Yeah, so we wouldn't be worried.- Kurenai said.
-Ahem! Err.....Um.....it's just that....hehe.....
-Turn the air conditioners on!! Is hot!-Naruto yelled.
-Let's get outta here!- Kiba said.
-Are we crashed down for the love of God?!?!- Lee cried.
-Yes...- Shino answered.
-Huh?- Everyone turned around desperately and stared at him- How do you know?!!!
-......It's common sense......- He answered calmly, everyone sighed in relief, they didn't believe him.
-Um...ahem...he's right....-The bus driver began.
-WHAT?!!!!!
-SEE? I KNEW IT!!!-Lee cried desperately- We're ALL gonna die!!!
-Please, let the man talk...-Kurenai said.- Explain us what's going on....
-Um...well....at first, everything was normal.....but suddenly when all of you were sleeping, the care stopped.....I didn't know what happened, until I got down and checked....the battery is dead......there's no way we can't get out of here unless we replace it...which is impossible, since we're......on the middle of nowhere.....hehe- The man scratched his head, everyone stared at him blankly....there was silence for some minutes...
-WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!-Lee cried broking down the silence.
-Come on now...don't say that....-The driver said- We can always send somebody for help....right?
-Do you have any kind of communicator around here?- Kakashi asked.
-Yes...the one that communicates us with the bus station.....
-Alright...let's use it...-Kakashi said, so they both entered the driver's cabin.
-See lee? Somebody soon is gonna come with a new bus and we'll peacefully continue the trip- Tenten said to Lee.
-I hope so...- Lee stopped biting his nails.
-Anyone knows what time is it? - Chouji asked loudly- because it looks like is kinda late, and I'm starving!!!
-Me too...-Naruto moaned.
-Everyone is, we haven't gotten any breakfast...-Kiba said.
-Man this sure is troublesome....-Shikamaru mumbled.
-Everyone....I have news....-Kakashi got out of the cabin.
-Are they good or bad?!- Naruto asked.
-Well...um...bad....
-OH MAN!!!
-It seems like we can't communicate with the bus station.....um so....
-WE'RE GONNA DIE!!- Lee yelled while grabbing his head desperately.
-....somebody is gonna have to go back to Konoha...and come back with another bus.........all of us can't go back.....-Kakashi continued.- So only one is going...
-And who's that?!- Naruto asked.
-I don't know...-Kakashi sighed.- ...Um...any of you wanna offer?- He smiled nervously, every one looked thoughtful.
-I'll....- Sasuke tried to say but Sakura quickly covered his mouth and pushed him down the seat and held him there.
-What was that?- Kakashi asked.
-Nothing! Nothing!- Sakura laughed nervously.
-...Okay....so nobody? .....Alright....looks like I'll have to go......-Kakashi sighed.
-But wait Kakashi sensei! You're gonna take forever!-Naruto said.
-Are you trying to say that I'm slow?
-No! It's just that we're really far away from Konoha now!
-Yeah, we've been traveling for eight hours!!!- Ino said.- At that rate you're gonna get to Konoha tomorrow!!!
-It don't matter......do you wanna be stuck in there forever?-Kakashi said.
-No....
-Alright then...I'll go....no problemo- Kakashi smiled.
-But....-Naruto tried to say.
-Nothing, I better be going now, Kurenai, Asuma, you take care of them, I'll be back with a new bus.....and a new bus driver....-Kakashi said.
-Ahem!- The driver cleared his throat nervously, just then Kakashi left.
-(I hope he comes back safe...)- Sakura thought while letting go of Sasuke.
-What was that all about?- He said angrily, she didn't answer.- Where's Kakashi sensei?
-He left...-Sakura said.
-Damn, why didn't you let ME go?!
-'Cause.....I... I just didn't want to!
-"..........."
:O:
Later on....
-I'm starving!!!- Naruto yelled with all his might.
-Me too...- Shikamaru groaned.
-God...-Chouji was about to faint- Please someone help!!! Food! Food! Food! For Pete's sake!!!
-Calm down Chouji...-Ino said patting him on the back.
-(Um...I must have something on my bag...some sweet, something!)- Sakura searched through her bag, luckily she found some candy, three bars of chocolate and some cookies.-(Alright!) Sasuke-kun, would you like some?- she smiled offering him the chocolate.
-...Thanks...- He nodded.
-God!! It's been more than ten hours now!!!- Naruto moaned.
-...um....Naruto-kun....would...you like...some?- Hinata offered him some cookies.
-Sure!!- He quickly grabbed them.-thanks!!!
-The bus driver went outside the bus after sensing a weird odor...
-Um...what's this?- The bus driver said to himself while looking at some fuel from under the bus.- Oh no....the fuel is spilling.....that means that.....this bus....at any minute can.....with the hot weather......err....alright.....um....- he quickly hurried to the bus. – Everyone! We need to get off the bus now! He said trying to hide his nervousness.
-But why?- Asuma asked.
-Ahem....it's just that I need to fix something inside...but with all of you here, I can't.....
-Alright...guys, ya heard that? Everyone off!- Asuma announced.
-Great...this is the only thing we needed.....how troublesome...-Shikamaru said.
-Oh and please quickly take your valises out of the bus!!!- The man said desperately- Hurry up, come on!!
-What the hell is going on?- Kiba said, Akamaru barked desperately.- What?! You gotta be kidding!- I'm outta here!!- And with this he quickly ran off the bus, grabbed his bags, and ran some meters away.
-...What's wrong with Kiba-kun? - Hinata asked Shino.
-Maybe he has nauseas.....- Shino said while grabbing his bag from the back of the bus....
-Come on, come on!!!- The driver started pushing them away.
-Hey, what's your problem?!!!- Naruto asked.
-Just get away from the bus!!! I know what I'm saying!! Get away if you don't wanna burn alive!!!
-WHAT?!!!-Everyone asked.
-JUST GO AWAY!!!!-The man started running.- ITS GONNA EXPLODE!!!
-AAAHH!!!- Everyone ran away from the bus and stood were Kiba was a few lot of meters away.
-WHY YOU DIDN'T TELL US BEFORE?!!! ARE YOU NUTS?!!-Kurenai yelled.
-Is just that I didn't wanna worry you....- The man explained nervously.
-....Oh God, I hope I turned off well that cigarette I left inside....-Asuma gasped.
-WHAT?!!!!
Suddenly a big explosion was heard. – AAGGHH!!!- Everyone covered themselves as a gust of wind stroke into their bodies.- Get back!!- Kurenai yelled. Everyone started running away.
The bus had exploded into smithereens......the only thing that was left was a big fire and smoke everywhere. Everyone stared at the scene....
-I cannot believe we were about to die....-Lee said slowly.
-Wow....-Tenten gasped while looking at the flames.
-Crap! We were all about to die in there!!!!!!!- Naruto yelled.- Its your damn fault!!!- He tried to punch the bus driver but Asuma held him.
-Hey, its not my fault! I'm not the one that checks the buses!!!
-This is weird....-Kurenai said.
-Wow...I never thought something like this will happen...-The other woman said.
-What a fright...-Sakura sighed.
-Is everyone alright?- Kurenai asked.
-Yeah...everyone nodded.
-(This is suspicious...really suspicious...)-Kurenai glanced at the woman and at the bus driver.- ( I don't trust them anymore....)- Guys, from now on, be really careful around ok? We might now know what dangers await...- She glanced a the apparently calmed woman.- (hmm.....)
:O:
-I cannot believe we're in the middle of nowhere....without food, water or somewhere to rest....- Chouji said to his teammates.
-This sucks.....-Shikamaru said.
-It sure does....-Ino said- ...Um...Shikamaru.....sorry about what I said before....I didn't mean it....-Ino apologized.
-...Yeah me too....
-Friends again?
-Yeah...
-That's the spirit....-Chouji said.- Hey guys look! I found some chips on my valise!!!
-Hey! It's full!!!- Ino said.
-...what? Is that the only thing you brought? Chips?- Shikamaru asked while grabbing a bag.
-Not really, I have this other bag with my clothes- Chouji explained while opening a bag of chips.
-Good idea bringing chips! Otherwise we would've been dead right now!!!- Ino stuffed some chips on her mouth.
- Guys...it's getting late...it seems that we'll have to camp in here...-Kurenai announced.
- But we have no tents!- Tenten said.
- Don't worry; there are some tents on that bag...-Kurenai pointed to an enormous bag lying on the floor.
- Alright!- Lee said- Camping! This is so cool!
- Cool? This is one of the worst situations I've ever been....-Neji mumbled.
- I thought you said that when you put that bunny costume?- Tenten asked.
- What? You put on a bunny costume?!!- Naruto asked loudly, Neji blushed and glared at Tenten.
- Yeah and it had a big pink nose and some round ass tail!!- Lee laughed.
- Shut up! You had on a mouse one!- Neji said like a little kid.
- Crap! That must've been hilarious!!- Naruto stared laughing his head off, the others also started laughing.
- Stop this right now....-Neji said- while angrily turning around.
- Oh man!!-Naruto kept laughing like crazy.
- Wow, what has Gai been doing with his team?- Kurenai asked.- That must've been terrible....
- Hey at least he didn't make 'em kill mice! – Asuma burst into laughs, Kiba, Hinata and Shino blushed, Naruto started laughing even louder specially of Kiba.
- ....Well at least is not that embarrassing as trying to catch a bird!- Kiba said.
- WHAT?!!! YOU WERE TRYING TO CATCH A BIRD?!! THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!-Everyone but Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke started laughing their heads off.
- Shut up...-Naruto mumbled.
- God! What was Kakashi thinking?!-Kurenai asked.
- Hehe, they didn't make fun of us....- Chouji whispered to Ino and Shikamaru.
- That's good...-Ino answered- Anyways, they don't know we got that allergy...
- Oh...- Chouji said.
- Alright everyone, that's enough laughing, let's set up the tents before the rain catch us....- Kurenai said.- There are five tents in that bag, let's divide....
- But how?-Lee asked.
- Hmmm...let's see.....how about each normal team in one tent? We can't divide girls and boys since the boys are just too much...
- What about you senseis?- Tenten asked- Asuma sensei can't share the same tents as you and her!!
- Hehe...of course not- Asuma laughed.- I'll stay outside watching the place for any danger.
- But are you sure?- Kurenai asked.
- Yeah don't worry.-Asuma smiled.
- Alright then, go ahead....but please...don't make a mess...-Kurenai said.
- Come on sensei, we're chunnins remember?- Kiba smirked.
- Right....
- Oh crap is raining!!- Naruto said- Let's hurry up.....
All the groups are camping now, what will happen during that night? Review to find out!
