Disclaimer: I own nothing, but this fic.
--------------:O:---------------
Sakura looked around; it had been ten minutes since they had entered the bus, after Kakashi's sudden, but fortunate return.
Everyone had quickly got into their assigned seats, even thought some didn't really want to. But they had no choice, Kurenai forced them again.
Naruto started talking proudly on how he had saved the day; of course Lee disagreed about that.
"I fought the strongest guards while you fooled around!"- Lee exclaimed as he rose up his fist.
"I fought and trashed all the ones in my way!" - Naruto yelled.
"Oh yeah? Then how did you end up locked in that room?!"
"Hey! You were there before me! And I was the one who got us out!"
"Shizukani..."- Ino mumbled.
"Guys..."- Kakashi tried to interrupt.
"I saved everyone!" - Lee shouted -"I put my life to the edge to get everyone save!!!!!!"
"No I did!" -Naruto turned around. - "Right Sakura-chan? "- Sakura wasn't paying attention and was urgently trying to help Sasuke with the huge scratch on his arm. - ".........."- Naruto turned around and sat quietly on his seat.
".........."- Lee also stayed quiet and turned around.
"Um...."- Kurenai quickly noticed their reaction.- "Guys, you ALL did a wonderful job getting out of there, thanks also for helping us..."- She chuckled.
".........."- Some nodded and smiled/smirked, some just stayed quiet.
There was silence.......
Hinata glanced at Naruto; she knew he felt down somehow, Sakura never paid attention to him, well at least not in the way he wanted, this made her sad...and in some way....mad, but still, she knew it was always like that....
- (Um...should I...?)- She thought while looking at the blood that slipped down his forehead. -"Um......"- She played with her fingers. -"Um......N-Na-Naruto-kun......"- She called him, but unfortunately he didn't hear. Hinata desperate a little, she didn't felt capable of calling him again, but she knew she had to, he was hurt and no one was helping him, she felt she had to do it. -"Um......N-Naruto-kun...."- She called a little bit more loudly now; Naruto turned around.........
Sakura glanced to her right to were the raven haired boy seated with his dull and cold expression, same as always. But she was somehow used to it. Sakura turned around and looked at him, without caring about what he could say. And of course he was gonna say something.
"What?" - Sasuke asked annoyed.
"For the tenth time...let me help you with that, please.... "- Sakura said while looking at his bleeding arm.
He shot her a cold glare.
"For the millionth time, I don't need your help." - He said even more annoyed while looking away.
"........"- Sakura looked at him sadly, she had wanted to help with his injury, same as Hinata was just doing with Naruto, Ino with Shikamaru, and Tenten with Neji...not even him, with those same serious and cold expressions, was as stubborn as the Uchiha boy.
It was hard for Sakura, she had liked him since they were kids...if he would just pay a little attention to her, maybe things could be a little different...on the way she wanted, because, he...he was the warmth she needed, she needed him...his affection...Kind of dreamful, but yeah, there was nothing she could do to change her feelings towards him and if there was something impossible for her, that would be the only thing.....
Her love....was only intended for him......And she had sworn herself to fight hard to get at least his appreciation...But sometimes it seemed so impossible, so hard, that she didn't know what to do or what to think. "Should I give up?" "Should I leave him alone once and for all?" Those were questions she would ask herself every day, but would always end up saying. "No, I can't do that; I must never give up, on my love, my ideas, goals, feelings, or dreams."
Sakura turned around staring out the window. It had stared to rain.
"You are so stubborn..."- She muttered. Sasuke turned around and glared at her. She noticed it. -" No, Sasuke-kun, I wasn't talking to you! "- She chuckled nervously. -"I was talking to myself......"
"Guys..."-Kurenai turned around on her seat, and gave everyone a tender look... who knows why. -" Our next stop is the country of Sand.....Since it's the closest one and in there, we'll be able to buy all the stuff that we need." - She finished still with her smile, and then went back to her conversing with the rest of adults.
"The country of Sand? Hm...that reminds me of that troublesome guy.....and his siblings...."-Shikamaru mumbled remembering the day of the chuunin exam, when Gaara killed the two guys by that dark hallway, and the match with his sister Temari.
"Stay still Shikamaru, I'm trying to finish here damnit..."- Ino scolded as she bandaged around his arm.
"Yeah, yeah....."- He rolled his eyes.
" Huh?! One 'yeah' is enough!!! - She said angrily smacking him on the head. Shikamaru stared at her horrified.
(That's the same thing my mom says! This is the last thing I needed....Damn! Why are women so troublesome?!!!)
"There you go..."-Tenten without any effort gave Neji her sweetest smile, after finishing treating some scratches around his arms and face. -" Hope that's better...."
"Thank you...."-Neji said thoughtful. He had never understood Tenten's kind and sweet behavior towards him since some years ago.
They had been friends since early childhood along with Lee, and he supposed that it was only part of friendship, but even though, it was different....
But that was not the point Neji thought about..... but, did he deserve it? Did he deserve such nice treat and smiles in exchange of nothing?
He turned around, and glanced at her, she was still smiling......
Later...
"Thanks Hinata, you're so nice..."- Naruto smiled after the timid girl finished bandaging his arm and forehead. She had gathered all her strength and guts, to ask him if she could help, and of course Naruto accepted...after Sakura completely ignored him, and paid all her attention to Sasuke.
"No...I want to thank you for helping us all get out safely........" - She said shyly, Naruto looked at her surprised, she was the only one of his friends that had thanked him, and actually appreciated his hard work......
"...You're welcome..."- He grinned. Hinata blushed a little and then turned around. She then stood quietly for some seconds, wishing with all her might to start a simple conversation...but she just couldn't. It was nearly impossible for her to actually start talking......
She pressed her hands together and stared at her laps, then she glanced to her side, Naruto was quickly falling asleep, his head dropping by one side, and his mouth open. Hinata smiled tenderly.....
Sometimes she felt so helpless, she wished so hard Naruto could notice her...She had always liked him, even thought everyone said he was brainless, and a loudmouth idiot; she didn't care, and she knew that was not true..... Hinata saw the bad treatment the villagers and rest of children gave Naruto since he was a kid, and even thought she didn't understand why, she tried to comprehend him, his feelings, and mischievous behavior, and tried to help but...... She just wished she could talk to him, and comfort him in times when he's on pain or just feels lonely....she just wished to be by his side, but, aside from not having enough strength to confess her feelings, she was scared.....scared of being rejected.....it would hurt her....it would hurt her really bad if he was to do that.......it would've probably been the worst hit she could ever get....Not even his father torturing her, and recalling every time all of her weaknesses, his indifference, or the dark and lonely days by herself on the big and cold mansion, would hurt her more than a rejection from him.....for now.....her secret love......
Forty minutes later, everyone had stared falling asleep, most of the boys with a mayor headache and nauseas, due to the late effects of the alcohol.
It was silent except for the little talk going on among the senseis.
"Hm....it looks like you went through a lot of trouble..."-Kakashi said after Kurenai and Asuma finished telling him about what happened since he left.
"Yes, but the guys did great, and most of all, they didn't forgot teamwork under any circumstance."-Kurenai smiled.
"Um, that's good." - Kakashi nodded and glanced around for his tired students. -" I'm happy for them....I and hope they keep it up......"
Later on.....
Hinata opened her eyes as the intense sun rays broke into her face. Somehow she didn't want to move from her resting position since she felt really comfortable, but after realizing that it was Naruto's arm, she quickly moved aside with a bright red color covering her cheeks.
"Ohayo Hinata!"- Naruto said in his usual loud and cheerful voice, as he turned around and gave her a big smile.
"Ohayo N-Naruto-kun...." - She blushed even more at the thought that he was awake, and knew that she was resting on his arm.
"Where's Kurenai sensei?"- Kiba asked while looking at the empty seats.
"I dunno..."-Naruto looked out the window. The only thing at his view was a desert. -" What the...?!"
"We're on the country of Sand..."-Ino said from behind as she pushed the sleeping Shikamaru away from her shoulder. -"Kurenai sensei and Kakashi sensei went into the city to talk with the Kazekage about us entering." - She looked out the window. -" Look, here they come......"
Kurenai and Kakashi entered the bus.
"What did they say? "- Asuma asked while lighting a cigarette.
"They say is alright, we can go in."- Kurenai answered while looking around.- "We'll be meeting the Kazekage, there are some things he wants to know, and while that, you guys go around the city, eat something and buy some stuff we'll need..."
"Hai!"- Ino, Hinata, Kiba and Naruto said.
"Hm...are they still sleeping?"- Kurenai looked at the rest.
"Yeah..."- Tomoko smiled.
"Let's just wake them up." - Kakashi searched through his pockets, taking out a small, silver horn.
"Huh?"
HOOOOooooOOOONK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"AAAAHHH!!!!!!"- Everyone abruptly woke up. -" Gee....what the hell....?"
"Wake up you lazy bums!"- Kakashi smiled.
"Listen up guys! We're on the country of Sand."-Kurenai began.- "There are several stuff that'll we'll be doing here. First, we, the senseis will be meeting with the Kazekage, he wants to know some stuff about our trip and plans, while that, I have a list of things that we will need for the rest of the trip, and some other stuff......you will split up in groups of four, go around the city, and buy what the lists require."- Kurenai took out three little scrolls from her pockets.
"Hai...."- Everyone said lazily.
"....Alright, the teams will be; Chouji, Naruto, Shino and Hinata... first one, Ino, Tenten, Kiba and Sakura team two, Sasuke, Neji, Lee and Shikamaru team three.......Any objections?"
".....Nah....."-Everyone answered with an annoyed gesture.
"You decide your leaders now, I'll give you three minutes."- Kurenai took a seat.
"I AM THE LEADER!"-Naruto shouted.
"........."-Hinata giggled.
"........."- Shino rolled his eyes under his shades.
"Whatever...."-Chouji mumbled.-" But are you sure you can deal with it?"
"Of course I can! What do you think I am?!"
"A moron...."
"Of course I'm the leader!"- Kiba yelled, Akamaru barked. - "There's no way I'm being bossed around by a bunch of stupid girls!!!"
"WHAAAaaaaAAAT?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"- Ino, Tenten and Sakura yelled.
"I' m the man here! "- Kiba closed his eyes and smirked, but suddenly......
"OH YEAH?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"- A glass bottle of 'AMARIGE' perfume, a bottle of 'Herbal Essences' shampoo, and a bottle of 'Victoria Secret' lotion flew on the air and landed hard and straight on his head and face.
"AH!!!"- Kiba fell back on his seat knocked out, Akamaru stared at him sadly.
"STUPID GIRLS HUH?!!!!!!!"- They shouted, Kiba opened his eyes and saw little stars and ducks flying in circles around his head.
"........Ok....One of you can be the leader........"- He moaned as a little blood started slipping down his nose.
".....So who's gonna be the leader?"- Lee turned around and asked.
"......Not me....that'll be too troublesome...."-Shikamaru yawned.
"..........."- Lee looked at Neji and Sasuke, none said anything.- "Um...alright! I'll be the leader! But remember you have to follow my orders just as I say!!!!"- He finished with an evil grin. The three looked at him as he was crazy...
"Alright then, here are the lists..."-Kurenai stood up. -" This will be your assignments for the day. Go and complete them responsibly........"- She gave one scroll to Naruto, Lee and Ino. -Meet at the Kazekage's place at 16:00 sharp....
"Hai!"
"......And please.....one tiny, little advice....
" DO NOT get in trouble."
"Hai!"
---------------:O:---------------
Somewhere inside the village of Sand...
Certain blonde hair girl walked up to a counter, an angry and annoyed expression on her face, and big frown above her teal eyes.
(Where in the world is he now?!)- She thought as she furiously walked inside the place, were the greasy walls and dusty floors made a good combination.
She abruptly opened the door with all her strength, cracking the wall behind it. -"What is your dumbass doing now?!!!!!!"- She yelled to the top of her lungs. -" WHY DID YOU LET ME OUT THERE WITH ALL THE WORK?!!!!" - Her screams resonated through the whole place.
"Hm?"- A dark haired boy, about the same age as her, calmly turned around with an annoyed expression, his hand's full of foam, same as the tip of his nose. "Why do you think?" - He asked exasperated, as he glanced at the huge pile of dirty dishes by both of his sides.
"Those people are going mad out there! I don't think I can handle them!"- She slammed her hand against the wall, producing a big clapping sound.
"And what do you want me to do? Go back and tell them to go somewhere else or something....."- He mumbled as he went back to his washing.
"Yeah, like it is that easy!!! I can't believe they let us handle this place by ourselves!!!
" Hm....."
"Where is that brat's insane ass now?!"
"I think he's cleaning inside..."- The boy answered with a somehow amused tone.
"What's so funny?!"
"Oh nothing, just thinking of him mop....Ah never mind!"
"Well I don't care what he's doing, he's gonna go out and help me!"
"Um...whatever, jus watch out, don't be so...."- He didn't finish his sentence, after he noticed that she was gone.
The blonde girl furiously walked out the kitchen and abruptly opened the door that lead to a bunch of tables, full of angry and incontrollable hungry people.
"HEY WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU GOING?!! WE WANT TO EAT HERE!!!" -Someone yelled to her as she passed by.
"YEAH! WHERE'S MY DAMN ORDER?!!!!"
"COME HERE YOU STUPID GIRL AND BRING US OUR FOOD!!!"
"DAMN THE BAD SERVICE ON THIS PLACE!!!!"
" Let's go bust into their kitchen..."
The voices kept yelling, as she passed by completely ignoring them. She rapidly opened the door that lead to the restrooms, which by the moment were closed to the public.
She kept waking into the dark hallways until she reached the boys' one. She silently walked close to the door and leaned towards it, listening to the weird sounds that were going on inside; she couldn't identify them, so she decided to walk in.....when suddenly someone talked to her from behind.
- "Temari, I need help! Those crazy people had busted into the kitchen, and are devouring the preserves on the fridge!!!"- The dark haired boy that washed the dishes some minutes ago appeared behind her, panting like crazy.
- "WHAT?!!! AND WHY DIDN'T YOU STOP 'EM?!!!!"
-" I couldn't!!!"
- "You're a good for nothing Kankurou!!!"- She said while pulling onto the doorknob. -" That's it!!! I'm telling Gaara off!!!!"- She roughly opened the door; a crashing sound was heard behind it, followed by a running sound, like water; but she didn't pay attention and stared at the figure in front of her.
The figure which was seated on the floor with a rag on his hands, stared angrily at the bucket full of water that had just be spilled all over the floor by the abrupt door opening. His eyes then traveled around until they met the angry expression of the blonde girl.
She stepped into the room ready to open her mouth and yell, when suddenly; she felt her feet slipping back carrying her whole body on his way. -What the.....?!!! WAAAAaaaaAAAA!!!!!- Her back landed hard on the wet floor as she slipped across the whole room screaming and waving her hands like crazy. -Gaaraaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!- She yelled to the boy, as she crashed towards the wall at the end of the room.
"Temari was going --Whoa!!!"-Kankurou stepped into the room, his foot touching the wet floor; he also lost balance, fell, and slipped all the way back to the end of the restroom, crashing on top of his sister.
"Agh....ouch....."-They both moaned. The kneeled boy stood up and slowly walked up to them.
"Hey little bro...." - Temari smiled nervously from the floor were she lay.
"Agh...my aching back...."-Kankurou groaned. Gaara stared at them pitifully.
There was silence........
"Move!"- Temari pushed Kankurou away from her.
"....I....."-Gaara spoke.
"Oh man! Look at my uniform! Is a mess!"- Temari exclaimed.
".....took......"
"My back! Someone help!"- Kankurou held onto his back.
"......for-
"How didn't I notice the wet floor?"
-ever......"
"My back!"
".....to clean....."
"I need to be more careful damnit...."
"......this floor......"-Gaara finished angrily as he looked around the room, there were a few footprints here and there.....
"Huh?"-Temari looked at him. He was angry.- "Um...hehe....."-She stepped back. Gaara glared at the two.
"Gaara, Temari needed you to help with the customers...."-Kankurou stood up still holding onto his back.
"Yeah....um...what were you doing here?"- Temari asked clueless while smiling nervously.
"...I was...."-Gaara glared at the floor.- ".....Scrubbing......"-He finished.
"..........."- Temari snorted while covering her mouth quickly in order of not bursting into crazy laughs.
Kankurou looked away holding hard onto his laugher.
Gaara silently walked out the room and closed the door. There was silence.
"OH MY FREAKING GOD!!!!!!!"-Temari held hard onto her stomach as she burst out into laughs.- "THAT....THAT'S NOT RIGHT!!! GAARA SCRUBBING THE BATHROOM FLOORS??!!!!!!"
"I KNOW!!!!!!!!!"- Kankurou started laughing crazily as he fell on the floor rolling.
"........."-Gaara stopped for a second after hearing the loud laugher behind him. But then his attention was grabbed by another sound, this time, they were screams.
"Hey, do you smell that?" - Kankurou sat up, and tried to control his laugher.
"Um...no..."- Temari said still giggling a little.
"It smells like.....OH NO!!! MY CLAM SOUP!!!!!!!!!!"- Kankurou stood up in a flash and rushed out of the room quickly followed by Temari. In the hallway, they found Gaara still standing in front of the door. They looked up, there was smoke coming out from outside as the people ran crazily out of the place screaming ' fire.'
"Let's go!"- Kankurou bust out of the hallways, ran across the tables and entered the kitchen door, from were all the smoke was coming from . Temari quickly appeared behind him.
"Kankurou!!!! You let the stove on?????!!!! Are you stupid?!!!!"- She started coughing as she entered the kitchen along with his brother.
"Yeah..."-Kankurou coughed as he searched for the exact place of the large stove.
"You dummy!!!"- Temari looked around the walls for the fire extinguisher, but no use, she couldn't find it. She covered her mouth still coughing. -" Let's get outta here Kankurou!!!"- She turned around finding Gaara behind standing by the door.
"No, we have to turn it off or the boss will kill us!!!"-Kankurou yelled.
"Fine!!!"-Temari ran up to the back of the kitchen and grabbed a silver bucket from the floor.
"Gaara help us!"-Kankurou cried. Gaara stepped forward, and stood next to him. -" Put some sand in there or something!" - He cried again as he looked at the burning stove.
"....Fine...."-Gaara said dully and stood closer to the stove, Kankurou stood behind him and glanced around for Temari, who was running towards them with a bucket full of water. " Huh?! Temari--"
"WATCH OUT!!!!"-Temari yelled as she threw the content inside the bucket blindly through the air.
"Whoa!!!!"-Kankurou stared at the flying water aiming directly at him.
SSSSPPLLAAaaaAASSSSHH!!!!!!!
".....Oopsie......"- Temari put a finger on top of her lips and smiled nervously.
".....Temari......"-Kankurou groaned as his hair and clothes soaked, making a pool of water on the floor.
"Ah! Gaara!"- She exclaimed nervously as she ran up to the red haired who was also soaking wet.
Kankurou turned around nervously to find a glare directed to him and his sister.-" Hey, hey, it's not my fault!"-He chuckled nervously.
"Oh shit.....Gaara I didn't mean to! "- Temari pressed her hands together as if begging.
".......I'm........"-Gaara spoke.
"I'm sorry little bro! Please don't get mad!" - She begged.
"Yeah, remember your treatment!" - Kankurou laughed even more nervous. -" Inhale! Exhale! - He stared breathing in and out moving his arms as if showing him how to do it.
"Yeah breathe!" - Temari said, Gaara's glare turned into a deadly one. -" Ah! "- Temari stepped back.
".....I'm gonna......"-Gaara watched at the drops of water the fell off his hair, then he looked in front of him; Kankurou with an idiotic and nervous smile.
"Calm down!" -Kankurou said still showing him the little exercise.- "Relax!"
"Hehe...Look! The fire's off!" - Temari laughed tensely.
".......I'm gonna.....KILL YOU!"-Gaara shouted the last two words.
"WHOA!!!"- Kankurou hurried behind Temari.
"Now, now little bro, don't take drastic decisions!" - He cried while stepping back. Gaara stepped forward, little swirls of sand appeared out of nowhere. -"Ah! I'm outta here!!!"- Temari pushed Kankurou to the floor and busted out of the kitchen.
- "Oh crap, Gaara's mad! Gotta get outta here!" -She ran out of the hallways, opened the door, and looked around the tables; there was no more customers, most of tables and chairs upside down same as random plates of food, glasses, forks, spoons, knifes, etc.
Temari sighed, took her red squared apron off, and looked out the glass door that lead out the place.But her eyes widened at the view in front of her; a blond spiky hair owned by a blue eyed boy of certain silly and curious expressions, approached close to the half opened door after talking a look inside the place from out the big glass window next to the door. - (WHAT THE FUCK?!!!)-Temari turned around and rushed back to the kitchen, cursing and swearing all her way back.- ( What the...what the...what the....?!!!!)
- "Hehe...here she comes...."-Kankurou hid behind a wall next to the door, ready to attack the blonde girl with a bucket full of water and ice cubes from the fridge.
Gaara just stood there, he had calmed down somehow after the idea Kankurou proposed: Wetting her back.
"This is great..."-Kankurou smiled sinisterly. - ....san...........ni.........ICHI!!!
The door was opened; Kankurou threw the bucket of water against Temari wetting her in a second.
"AH!!!"-Temari gasped as the icy water covered her completely.
"HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!"-Kankurou fell on the floor laughing and holding onto his stomach.
".........."-Gaara stared at his sister with a slight smirk.
"YOU!!!!"-Temari stood still and clenched her fists. -" YOU......"
"PAYBACK!"-Kankurou shouted still laughing.
"Okay....."-Temari sighed and glanced at Gaara...he was smiling.....- You got me....- She closed her eyes and calmed down.
"Of course..."-Kankurou said while walking out the kitchen.
"Huh?!" - Temari looked around, the two had walked outside....they didn't know about.....!- "Wait don't walk out!!!!"- She yelled as she ran up in front of them and pushed them inside the kitchen.
"AHH!!!"- Kankurou stepped back after Temari threw herself against him and Gaara; the three went flying into the kitchen and landed hard on the floor. -"WHAT THE HELL TEMARI?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"-Kankurou yelled to the top of his lungs.
"SSHH!!!! You have no idea who's out there!!!!"- Temari said desperately still on top of the two.
" Who? The boss?"
"....Get off....."-Gaara mumbled from under the two, were he found himself squashed. Temari and Kankurou quickly got off. The three stood seated on the floor.
"That boy is out there! Naruto!"- Temari explained nervously.
"...THE HELL?!!!!!!!"- Kankurou yelled.
".....how in the.....?"- Gaara shocked.
"Yeah, I have no idea, but the rest of them are probably out there too! We can't let them catch us like this!"- Kankurou and Gaara stared at their uniforms; a white and navy sailor shirt with some black shorts.
Temari glanced at her uniform a small white sailor blouse with transparent flower buttons, butterfly themes at the edges of the short sleeves, and a short white sailor skirt that didn't covered her hips at all.
"....This is humiliating......"-Gaara muttered.
"Yeah..."-The two said shocked at the fact that they were actually wearing such ridiculous outfits.
"Hey! Is anybody here?!"
A voice yelled from the outside. The three snapped out of their thoughts.
" Kankurou you go!"- Temari said
" HUH?! WHY ME?!!!!!!!"
"BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE THAT BLACK COSTUME YOU USED TO WEAR, NEITHER THOSE PURPLE MARKS ON YOUR FACE, THEY WON'T RECOGNIZE YOU AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!- She explained, Gaara nodded.
" .....Tsk fine..... I'll drive them out fast as fuck....."
"Whatever just go!" - Temari shoved him out of the kitchen, and sighed.
" Let's change...."-Gaara left the room.
" Hm....."- Temari also walked out but instead of walking right to the dressing rooms, she walked left and decided to check on Kankurou.
Kankurou opened the large doors that lead to the tables; there he found the three boys and one girl looking around. - (CRAP!!! THEY'RE HERE!!! I HAVE TO KICK THEM OUT!!!)
The blonde boy turned around and noticed the other boy there. He looked at him for some seconds.
"What do you want?"- Kankurou asked annoyed.
"Hey! What kind of stupid question is that!"- Chouji yelled.- "We're here to eat of course, duh!"
"...Sorry but had a little accident and we're closed...."-He made a huge effort and smiled.
"OH MAN!"- Naruto moaned.-" I AM SO STARVING! THAT'S A PITY!!!!"
(Shit...loud as always....)-Kankurou thought annoyed. -" Well bye....."-He turned around and started leaving.
"Chotto matte!"- Naruto called him.- "Haven't I seen you somewhere before?"
"W-What? Hehe...no-no way!!!"- Kankurou laughed nervously.
(That idiot is getting all nervous....) - Temari thought from behind the door were she hid. -( Just walk away!)- She looked to the floor after she felt something touching her foot.......a.....mouse......
- "YAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!"- She yelled to the top of her lungs as the little animal stared climbing onto her leg. -" AH! AH! AH! GET OFF!!!!"- She leaned on the door; it opened and threw her hard against the floor. -" AH! OFF!" - She stared rolling on the floor without noticing that everyone was looking at her.
(Chikusho!)- Kankurou stared at his sister rolling on the floor swearing and screaming nonsense. - (BAKA!)
"What the hell?!" -All the guys on the back said.
"Hey! You're...."- Chouji stepped forward.
"......Ugh......."-Temari stopped rolling and kneeled on the floor, the animal was gone. She looked up and noticed that she was in front of everyone. -" What?! Hehe....hi....."-She smiled nervously. Kankurou slapped his forehead.
"What are you doing here?!"-Naruto asked confused.
"What are YOU doing here?!" - Kankurou replied.
"Hey! You're that guy! The marionette dude!" -Naruto shouted. Kankurou rolled his eyes.
"Yeah....."
"So, you came to visit or what?"- Temari asked still kneeled on the floor, when suddenly something hit her hard on the head, and dropped her to one side. Gaara opened the door and stepped forward.
"YOU TOO?!!!"-Everyone shouted.
"........."- Gaara glared at Temari who was knocked down on the floor.
"........."- Kankurou shrugged.- "It's been mad long since I haven't seen none of you squirts..."-He smirked.
"What are you doing in a sea food place?"-Naruto scratched his head.
"....We work here...."-Kankurou answered, Gaara glared at him.
"What the....?!"- Naruto looked at Gaara. -"No way! –He yelled."
"Hey! It's not our fault ok? Is not that we're here because we want to!"- Kankurou said angrily.
"Ugh..."-Temari stood up. -" What are you all doing here anyways?"- She asked while rubbing her head.
"We're on a mission."-Naruto said.- "Is not actually in here, but we're passing by, we have to do some shopping..."-He scratched his head.
"You think you can give us something to eat before we go?"- Chouji asked. Temari and Kankurou looked at each other.
"Fine...."-They said at unison.
"Hooray!" -Naruto laughed while rushing up to a table. The rest followed.
"..........."- Gaara just stood there while Temari and Kankurou entered the kitchen.
"Hey Naruto..."- Chouji whispered. -"That guy's still looking at us like he wants to kill us....."
"Huh?"- Naruto glanced at Gaara.- "Nah! I think that's his usual look, I'm calling him..."
"NO WAIT!"
"YO GAARA! "-Naruto shouted. Gaara turned around. -" Sit with us man! Don't' be so antisocial!"
"Baka!"- Chouji pinched Naruto on the arm.
"Ouch!"-Naruto said.
Gaara stood close to the table. - So how's life?!- Naruto asked, no answer was heard. Um...ok.....
"Hey people!"- Kankurou appeared by the door. -" Our stove is messed up, we can't fry! Are you all alright with some ramen?!"
"HELL YEAH!!!!" –Naruto shouted.
"Okay....."
Some minutes later, Temari and Kankurou appeared with some bowls of ramen one for each one of the just arrived.
"So..."-Temari stared at the hungry Naruto as he slurped the noodles into his mouth. -" You said you're on a mission right?"
"Yeah..."-Naruto answered with his mouth full.
"And are all of you here? Or just you four?"
"...All of us..."
"All?"- Kankurou asked again.
"...Uh huh..."
"....Oh I see..."-Temari grabbed a chair from another table, sat next to Naruto, and glanced around. - "....And....what about ...um...your friend....? "- She whispered.
"Huh? Which one?"- Naruto slurped his noodles.
"...Shikamaru....Is he here?"
"...Um...yeah, why?"
"Oh nothing, just asking!"- Temari laughed.
"Okay...."-Naruto kept eating.
" So, I see you all passed the chuunin exam..."- Kankuro looked onto their green vests.
" Uh huh..." - Naruto grinned.
" That's what I call luck!"- Temari laughed.
" Hey! It's not luck! We would've passed it easily before, but that Orochimaru guy started messing with us..."- Naruto said thoughtful.
"Um....well...yeah...."- Kankurou said.
There was silence...
"Anyways people!" - Temari laughed.-"Instead of talking about that bastard, why don't you tell us on what we can help?"
" Um...okay...."- Naruto snapped out of his thoughts.
" Tell us a place where we can go shopping..."-Chouji mumbled.
" Ok, there's a mall not to far from here, take north and you will easily find it; ya can go there, they have a lot of stuff."- Temari explained.
" ALRIGHT PEOPLE! LET'S GO!" - Naruto stood up. " Thanks for the food guys, see ya later!"
" Um...alright..."
Somewhere around the village...
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!!! There's no way I'm entering there!!!"-Kiba crossed his arms angrily as he looked inside the glass wall of the store in front of him, were some mannequins wearing some tiny girls' underwear could be seen. -" NO WAY!!! DO YOU READ ME?!!!"
"NO, WE DON'T READ YOU!!! AND YOU'RE COMING WITH US!"- Ino demanded while grabbing him by the sleeve.
"Glad I saved some money!"-Tenten squealed as she opened the glass door letting the rest in.
"Let go!!!"-Kiba managed to get away from Ino and Sakura, but too late he was already in. "Crap! Akamaru!"- He called his dog as asking him for help, but the canine was more interested curling on Sakura's arms. -" What the...?! Akamaru come back here at this instant!"- He yelled, the dog looked at him and then turned around again. -" Playing tough huh? Alright...I'll get even...."- He crossed his arms and looked away.
"Come on girls! Let's go search inside!"- Ino laughed as she happily ran to the back of the place. Tenten, Sakura and Akamaru quickly followed. Kiba glanced around.
"Shit...they left me! WHAT THE FUCK! WHY THIS DOES THIS HAPPEN TO ME! IT'S SO EMBARRASING! DAMN GIRLS THEY'RE SO ANNOYING!!!- He yelled.
All the women around the place shot him a deadly glare and stepped forward ready to kick his ass. -" Hehe...don't take it seriously...."- The chuckled nervously. -" I was just saying the truth though..."
"GET HIM!!!!!!!!!"
"AH!!!"-Kiba flashed away and appeared where his teammates were, giggling and carefully choosing their stuff. -" Help! Those women are trying to attack me!" - He hid behind Ino.
"What are you fool doing?"- She asked angrily. - " Get away!"
"But...but..."
"Alright go outside if you want, but leave us alone will ya?!"
"Really? Phew! "-Kiba rushed to the entrance and opened the door, when suddenly, he spotted some familiar faces in front of him by the other side of the sidewalk.
Lee, Sasuke, Neji and Shikamaru stared at him as he just got out of the little underwear store.
"What the...?! "- Lee and Shikamaru stared at him wide eyed. Kiba did too.
There was silence when suddenly Lee burst out into laughs holding onto the walls of the pharmacy right behind him. -"HAHAHA!!!"- He laughed so hard that Neji, who was hardly containing his laugher, had to hold him from the back.
"Gee..."- Shikamaru laughed. -" That's embarrassing man......"
"SHUT UP!!!"-Kiba yelled from the other side. The people around turned and stared at him with a mocking smile, after reading the sign above him.
"HAHAHA!!!!"-Lee kept laughing his ass off while being pulled by Neji.
"Let's go Lee..."- He smiled.
"But, but...."-Lee kept laughing as the four started walking away with a mocking expression.
"Kuso..."-Kiba blushed.
" Hey Kiba!" - A female voice called him from the back. -" Come here, we need a little help."
" ....Tsk....there's no way I'm entering there again."- He crossed his arms.
" Just move!"- A hand pulled him by the sleeve.
" Whoa!"
Three hours later....
"Okay girls, we're done with the shopping!"- Ino smiled as they got out another clothing store. "Now, where's our stuff?"- She looked around for Kiba, who was just coming out the place stumbling with about thirty bags and boxes of clothes, shoes, and other random stuff. -" There they go! Hurry up you sluggish bum!"- She yelled.
"I'm coming, I'm coming DAMNIT!!!!"- He made a little whole from between the boxes in front of his face, so he could se were he was going.
"Now, for the list?"- Sakura asked.
"Oh yeah!- Ino took the scroll out of her pocket. -"Let me see...."- She opened it and began reading.- "A bottle of 'FCUK' perfume, thirty five packs of cigarette, five packs of pipes, three packs of 'Corona' beers, a pair of black muscle shirts, a pair of fuzzy lion slippers, a pack of Saddam Hussein playing cards, a nose pencil sharpener, and a President Bush Jack in the box........
"What the hell is that all about?!"- Kiba asked from behind the boxes.
"This must be Asuma's sensei's list..."- Ino sighed.
"....Wow...."-Sakura and Tenten said.
"How does he expect us to buy all that crap?!"- Kiba yelled.
"....I don't know, but I think I'll be easy..."- Ino started walking. -" Let's go to the mall everyone!"
"Wait, do they have a mall in here?"
"Okay, we've found the 'Tylenol' pills, the bandages, 'IcyHot' packs..., alcohol, cotton, hydrogen peroxide, the polish remover...and the lipsticks........right? What else's on the list?" -Lee asked.
"I don't know, you have it...."-Shikamaru mumbled.
"Oh yeah...." - Lee stopped walking and started searching through his chuunin jacket.-" At ease men! "- He said still searching. The rest looked at him as he was crazy....again....
"Here it is! "- Lee took out the scroll. -" Let's see......a crab hat, a rasta hat.........? A corset handbag?

"....Hm....all of that sound troublesome......"-Shikamaru quirked.
"All of it are girl stuff." - Neji crossed his arms thoughtful.
"That's Kurenai sensei's....."-Sasuke leaned against a wall.
(Yeah......)- Lee thought while seating on a little bench. -(Hm....think....think Lee...Hey, I know! There's a lot of grocery stuff in there too! I'll go buy all the candy, and I'll let the guys buy all the girl stuff! Yeah! You're a genius Lee!) -" Guys..."-Lee stood up. -" Let's divide, I'll go buy some stuff by myself, and you'll go, buy the others."
"....Whatever, but what are YOU gonna buy, and what are WE gonna buy?"
"I'll buy all the grocery!" -Lee grinned. -" AND YOU'LL BUY ALL THE GIRL STUFF!"
"WHAT?! HELL NO!!!!"
"HEY! I'M THE LEADER HERE! YOU MUST FOLLOW MY ORDERS!"
"Lee....I'm gonna......"- Neji shot him a glare.
"Let's go guys! We'll meet at this point, in about two hours, and then we'll go for a snack!!!"- Lee gave Neji the scroll and jumped in the air, disappearing into the roof tops.
"Let us see the list Naruto!" -Chouji exclaimed.
"Here!"-Naruto angrily gave the scroll. -" I don't understand it!"
"You moron! What do you mean you don't understand it?!"- Chouji said as he stared opening the scroll.
"I don't know, there's a lot of weird things in there!"- Naruto said with a silly expression.
"Naruto-kun..."- Hinata giggled.
"Okay...let's see...."-Chouji stared at the paper, his eyes widened. "..........."- He returned the paper to Naruto. -"You read that!"
"Huh?"
"Just read it ok?!"
"Um.....Ok...."-Naruto opened the scroll and began reading.- "...Um......Toilet paper,....err........ a red rubber duck?......hot sauce?..........five packs of cinnamon gum......, a pack of Dr. Pepper..........,a 'SONY' CD player........., Movies: "Icha, Icha Paradise" Episodes 900-940........, books: "Icha-Icha Paradise" Ed. 200 and 2001........., two G-Strings, condo....WHAT THE....?!!!- Naruto threw the scroll to the floor.-" What kind of sicken joke is this?!!!"
"...That must be your sensei's list......"-Shino spoke.
"Oh man! Of all of the insane ones, it had to be him!!!"-Naruto grabbed his head. -" Where are we gonna find all that shit now?!!!"
"......Um.....some of that stuff like hot sauce, we could find on a normal place.....but those porn movies? I don't know......."- Chouji mumbled.
".........You just said it......"- Shino sighed. - "We'll have to enter one of those porno places........."-He slipped his hands into his pockets.
" Oh...."
