Alright you all asked nicely and I couldn't resist (darn puppy dog eyes) so here is chapter 10. I'll tell you all one thing keeping yourself updated is hard so I savor breaks like these that I get from school. Since I forgot to say so last time HOORAY TO MAKING IT PAST 50 REVIEWS!!!!! Also there will be a few jumps to get the story rolling a little faster...all this "he did this, this day, and they did this, that day" writing gets boring.

P.S. Any songs I use that you haven't heard, do all you can to hear them they are awesome! I would say download them (HINT HINT) but, I might get in trouble so do all you can.

Disclaimer: If you have enough time to sue me you have plenty of time to read the previous chapters. Also any song I use or ever use are not mine if they were...I'd be rich and famous and probably on tour right now.

To tell who is singing.

N=Naruto S=Sasuke NS=Neji and Shikamaru E=Everyone SasuNaru=Not a pairing but Naruto and Sasuke singing together.

(-Chapter 10-)

All weekend Naruto spent all his time writing lyrics for the songs that Shikamaru gave him, and discussing ideas with Sasuke, Shikamaru, and Neji at a McDonalds or at one of their houses. During the times the four were together Naruto refused to tell them the words to the lyrics he had already written for one of the songs. By the time Monday started Naruto had finished the lyrics for two songs. It was easy to say that everyone was impressed, but some were skeptical they did believe that Naruto had the lyrics for two songs finished but, they thought that the songs would sound like they were a bit rushed. Throughout the rest of the school week Naruto was able to get two more lyrics wrote which left him with one last song that he had to write lyrics for. But, before he could get to work on the last song the phone rang..

"Hello." Naruto answered.

"Hey Naruto it's Sasuke." Sasuke answered.

"Oh hey Sasuke! What's up?" Naruto asked.

"Well, Shikamaru and Neji are coming over to my house tomorrow to practice and we were wandering if you were ready to start practicing with us." Sasuke explained to Naruto.

"Sounds great...but I only have four songs finished. If I'm going to practice with you guys I'll have to spend time practicing and perfecting the songs I have finished rather than working on the fifth." Naruto told Sasuke. Sasuke only chuckled.

"Naruto four songs will be plenty. We still thought that you only had the two finished." Sasuke said.

"Alright see you tomorrow!" Naruto said with much excitement.

"Alright, cya." Sasuke said still chuckling at Naruto's excitement. That night Naruto stayed up till one memorizing and rewriting the lyrics to his songs, but when he woke up it was nearly eleven and he was meeting Sasuke at his house in half-an-hour.

Rushing, Naruto gathered up his stuff grabbed a piece of toast and ran out the door right when he got to his car he ran back inside. After he came back outside after changing from his pajamas it was a little past a quarter after. Thankfully Naruto wasn't in such a rush to get pulled over by a cop and was able to make it to Sasuke's house in the knick of time.

(-At Sasuke's house-) (A/N: Yeah you already knew that-)

When Naruto reached the door it "Magically" opened to reveal Sasuke.

"How? What? You?" Naruto kept on rambling on. Sasuke just laughed.

"I was sitting next to the window when you pulled up in the drive way." Sasuke simply stated.

"...oh." Was all Naruto had to say to his friend.

"Well come on, Neji and Shikamaru are already downstairs setting up." Sasuke said leading Naruto to the basement. When the two entered the basement they were met with a yelling Neji and an annoyed Shikamaru.

"ALL I'M SAYING IS THAT WHY NOT BUY A COPY OF ALL OUR EQUIPMENT SO WE HAVE A SET UP AND ALL OUR HOUSES?" Neji yelled...something that he didn't do much.

"Why should I?" Shikamaru asked.

"One because you can, and two so we don't have to bring any equipment over to anyone else's house. Remember the party where you had to bring your drum set over?" Neji said trying to get Shikamaru to see things his way. After hearing Neji's reminder of the party incident Shikamaru sighed. "Alright Neji your right," Neji smirked. "So tomorrow I'll bring over another drum set for your house." With that Neji through his hands up in the air in defeat and left Shikamaru alone.

"Umm guys?? Naruto is here we can get started now." Said Sasuke as he looked at the other two band members. When the two looked up and saw Naruto they forgot what they were talking about and quickly brightened up. "Finally! I can't wait to hear what we sound like after we get lyrics into are music." Neji said excitement readable in his eyes.

"Well before we get that started I have to discus a few things with you guys," Naruto said as he pulled out a bunch of paper. "These are the lyrics as you can probably tell I have copies of them."

"Yeah we can see that, but why?" Shikamaru asked.

"Well I had my uncle help me out last night and he said that although I was great that it might be a good idea to have places where you guys sing as well. So hear are your copies." Naruto said as he handed them each four sheets of paper.

"That's cool and all but, how will we know where we are supposed to sing?" Sasuke asked.

"One step ahead of you Sasuke On the left side where the lyrics are I put stuff like S, N, NS, E, and SasuNaru. Each of those things has a specific meaning." Naruto paused for a second. "S means that is where Sasuke will sing, N is where I will sing, NS is for when Neji and Shikamaru sing, E is where everyone but myself will sing and SasuNaru Is where Sasuke and myself will sing."

"Ok I understand that but," Neji said as he flipped through the sheets looking for something. "What about these ones that are in parentheses?"

"Oh good point I almost forgot," Naruto said flipping to the same sheet that Neji was on. "Whatever is in parentheses is what whoever is listed to sing will sing while I or whoever is listed will sing the top line."

"That's a lot to remember Naruto." Shikamaru said.

"I know but, trust me it will work." Naruto said.

"As Sasuke flipped through the pages he stopped and asked, "What about the stuff that is capitalized?"

"Just means that those lyrics will be shouted," Naruto said. "So we ready to get started?"

"Sure thing." Sasuke said as he headed to his guitar the others were quick to follow suit.

"Here's a mic for you Naruto. Figured you didn't have one so I got you one...consider it a thank you gift for joining the band," Shikamaru said as he handed a microphone to Naruto. "It's already hooked up to that amp over there, which is also yours."

"Wow thanks Shikamaru! This is great! It must of cost a lot." Naruto said.

"Not really...It wasn't even a quarter of the cost of my drums." Shikamaru said as he walked up to his drum set and sat down getting ready to play. When everyone was set up they did a quick test and were finally ready to play.

"Alright everyone ready? Nervous Naruto?" Sasuke asked is now lead singer.

"Yeah a little." Naruto answered truthfully.

"Well don't worry we plan on going in the same order as the songs that were on the cd." Shikamaru said which seemed to calm Naruto down a little.

"Alright hear we go." Sasuke said. Sure enough Neji, Sasuke, and Shikamaru started playing.

"I stand here face to face...crap sorry guys I guess I'm a little more nervous than I thought." Naruto said as the band stopped.

"Look it's ok to be nervous and mess-up a few times, so don't worry about it," Sasuke said. "But if you want you can always leave." When Sasuke said this he was saying it to get Naruto to focus more on proving him wrong rather than singing the song right.

"Let's just try again." Naruto said with a new found determination. As the band started up again Naruto lost all his worry and replaced it with the determination to show the others that he could sing for them.

N: I stand here face to face
N: with someone
that I used to know
N: who used to
look at me and laugh
N: But now all
he claims
N: That he's known me for so very long

N: but I remember being no one

N: I wanted to be just like you

N: So perfect, so untouchable
N: Now you
want me to be with you
N: someone who used to have it all
SasuNaru: Do you
remember now?
N: you acted
like you never noticed me
N: Forget it!

SasuNaru: Cause the dawn has come
around
N: You're not allowed to be a part of me

N: Did you know me?

N: or were you to preoccupied with

N: playing king
in your small kingdom
N: Well now the real world

N: has stripped you of
your royalty
N: And
from your kingdom you're evicted

N: I wanted to be just like you
N: So perfect, so
untouchable
N: Now you want me to be with you

N: someone who
used to have it all
SasuNaru: Do you remember now?

N: you acted like you
never noticed me

N: Forget it!

SasuNaru: Cause the dawn has come around

N: You're not allowed to be a part of me

N: Part of me (x3)

N: you're never going to be a part of me (x2)

SasuNaru: you're never going to be a part of me (x2)

N: YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO BE A PART OF ME (x2)

SasuNaru: Do you remember now?

N: you acted like you never noticed me

N: Forget it!

SasuNaru: Cause the dawn has
come around
N: you're not
allowed to be a part of me
N: Part of
me (x3)

And with the last "part of me" the song whirled down to its end. For a second everyone was silent then Shikamaru did something that only happened about once a month.

"DUDE THAT WAS FRIGGIN AWESOME." Shikamaru yelled. Everyone had about the same thoughts in mind.

"Lets hurry and try out the next three songs." Neji said.

"Why?" Everyone asked Neji.

"That way we can play them in front of our friends." Neji simply said. Everyone took a second to think about the idea and agreed that it was a great idea, and continued there practicing until Neji had to leave.

"Why do you have to leave? Its only four p.m." Sasuke asked his bass player.

"Got a date man can't let her wait on me." Neji said as he packed up his stuff.

"oooo a date." Shikamaru said. "Yeah you know those things where two people of the opposite sex go out alone. You should try it sometime." Neji said in a joking matter while Shikamaru fumed, Naruto just laughed.

"So who's the lucky girl?" Sasuke asked.

"TenTen." Said Neji as he headed up stairs, the others right behind him.

"Wow that's cool." Said Naruto

"Yeah it is now if you'll excuse me I got to be going, got to still change before I pick her up." Neji said as he walked out to his car leaving Naruto, Sasuke, and Shikamaru at the front door. As Neji drove off Sasuke looked at Naruto and said. "Spy?"

"Spy." Naruto agreed. As Sasuke and Naruto walked off to Sasuke's car Shikamaru stayed by the door.

"You guys go ahead and spy on Neji I'll stay here incase you need me." Shikamaru said. But, before he could walk off Naruto and Sasuke grabbed Shikamaru and threw him into the backseat. As they drove off they were either going into the greatest adventure of their high school lives or they were going into the land of no return.

(-End of Chapter 10-)

Wow this was a lot longer than I thought. Well hope you like this chapter. Anyways the song I used is Hobastank's Remember Me. Also I know the lyrics are all messed up but, I don't know how to fix it so if any1 has done a songfic before or knows how to fix it please tell me ASAP. As to the other four songs you'll hear them soon enough but next chapter will be probably the funniest one in the story as of right now. Also as to the other characters I promise they will come in later chapters...after I think of how to bring them into the story. Till next time
