"Trapped with you"
Lady Cell: ((gets up from the computer and lets out a loud sigh)) I DID IT! ((Turns in to a gooey mass and falls to the floor)) a...nother...chapter...finished...
GothicAngel: ((Looks at her)) took you long enough
Neko-Chan: Yeah, really!
DarkMagicianGirl: You didn't update for weeks!
Lady Cell: ((Turns back to normal)) ((Glares at the girls)) HEY, GIVE ME A BRAKE! ((Calms down and clears her throat)) I had a bad writers block...
Neko-Chan: ((Sarcastic)) Well poor little you.
DarkMagicianGirl: Yeah, you could have let us update this chapter on our own!
Lady Cell: And let you ruin the story again? Fat chance!
GothicAngel: Well anyway, didn't you have something to say about a new character?
Lady Cell: ((Blinks)) Oh yeah! Loveme731 was SOOOO desperate to get in the story; she would even be paired up with Orochimaru, even though she doesn't like him. So because I am a good person, I will let her join the ride without Orochimaru!
Neko-Chan: ((Whispering to DarkMagicianGirl)) she's too nice for her own good
DarkMagicianGirl: ((Nods)) Yeah, you're right
GothicAngel: ((sparkly eyed)) Lady-chan, sugoi! You're my idol!
Lady Cell: ((Beams))
Neko-Chan: ((Sweat drops)) I am reminded of Gai and Lee for some weird reason...
DarkMagicianGirl: Yeah, really...
"Great! Then I'll cook for you again tomorrow!" Alana grinned
"Uhh..." Kurenai tried to get out of this nasty situation "Well, your cooking was so tasty, that everyone decided not to get addicted to it during this month so you shouldn't cook anymore!"
"Aww...that's too bad." Alana pouted
"Saved..." Kurenai sighed.
9th Chapter: "Pranks, conga-lines and kisses"
"Nano da, nano da, nanonano da!" Shail marched around the basement, singing a song she heard from somewhere (That cat-girl from Yumeria sings this all the time). She was simply entertaining herself, because, as she said it, 'The stinky old basement is boring and singing scares the dust-bunnies away!' She wasn't even conscious of the fact that her marching and singing was starting to annoy some people in the basement.
Miharu was sitting against the wall, trying to meditate, but Shail's singing was distracting her "How long can she go on like this?" she growled mentally. Shail was singing for almost two hours. She cracked open one eye to look at everyone.
Haku was next to her, and he was mediating even though the brown-eyed girl was singing. Mei was arguing over something with Saeki again; Devin looked like she was also tempted to kill Shail; Natsumi was fiddling around with some weird ball she found; Stephany was playing with Saeki's puppy that suddenly appeared out of nowhere; Hayashi and Joel were talking about stuff, completely ignoring the dancing girl.
Also, during the time they were there, a new member joined the group. Her name was Shen-Shen or something, but she insisted that everyone call her Miru. She had brown hair going to her shoulders with red highlights and black eyes. She was dressed in Pink skirt going past her knees and a yellow t-shirt. She was currently talking with Hayashi and Joel.
"I can't stand this anymore!" Miharu thought angrily "HEY!" she yelled out, and everyone looked at her "Will you stop singing that song! It's getting on my nerves!" she growled.
Shail looked at the girl for a moment, before she grinned again "Ok!"
"Thank y..." Miharu started, but Shail then started to sing another song
"I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves, everybody's nerves, everybody's nerves..." Shail started singing, and Miharu slapped her forehead.
Miharu got up from where she was sitting, on her face was a murderous look "That's not what..." she started growling, but Shail pushed a stick of pocky in to Miharu's mouth. There was a few seconds of silence until...
"YAY, POCKY!" Miharu grinned and started jumping around.
"She's hyper again..." Devin sweat dropped slightly
"Pocky does that to her..." Saeki scratched the back of his head as he Shail and Miharu started prancing around the room and singing songs. He looked at Haku, and saw that he was, too, sweat dropping at this.
"WHY YOU!" everyone turned to where the yelling was coming from. Miru seemed very pissed at Hayashi
"What? What did I do?" Hayashi blinked at the pissed off girl.
"You called me that name..." Miru growled angrily
"What? Shen-Shen?" Hayashi asked
"YOU!" Hayashi growled and pounced at Hayashi.
Laura looked at the sleeping Jiraya. He was sleeping on the couch. "This is gonna be great!" she grinned and tip toed to Jiraya, Kira behind her
"Are you sure this is alright?" Kira whispered to her sister, who simply gave her a peace sign. Laura grinned again and took out makeup out of nowhere. The two girls grabbed their brushes and started applying make up on the sleeping sannin.
Sasuke looked at the girls from behind the door, and sweat dropped. "She never changes..." he thought and noticed that Tsunade walked past him and go to the girls.
"What are you two doing?" Tsunade asked the two girls, a warning tone in her voice.
"Umm..." Kira sweat dropped
"We're making Jiraya pretty." Laura grinned nervously.
Tsunade frowned at the two girls "They're in for it..." Sasuke thought, but suddenly Tsunade kneeled next to the girls, a grin on her face
'Mind if I join in?" Tsunade grinned, and Sasuke fell over anime stile.
"Sure, go ahead." Kira smiled sweetly as she gave Tsunade a brush, and the three of them continued making Jiraya 'Pretty'
Sasuke slowly got up "T...this is too much..." he thought and walked away
Alana sighed. She was sitting on the roof top and watching the stars. It's strange how the night sky reminded her of Tara. "Tara-nee-chan..." Alana whispered.
"Yo." Alana heard a familiar voice and her eyes widened. She turned to the side and saw her sister in the Atsakuki cloak. Tara was still the same. Her black hair was reaching her shoulders, only now she had a red bandana around her head (Anna stile-Shaman King); her eyes were still the same black shade they were before. Tara looked at Alana and grinned "Get that look of your face; you look like you saw a ghost."
Alana quickly sat up and continued to stare at her sister "T...Tara..."
"Yes?" Tara blinked at Alana "You should see your face now, you look so silly!" Tara stood up and looked at the stars "They're pretty, ne?" Tara giggled again at Alana's silence "I guess that you are so angry at me that you don't want to talk, ne?"
Alana snapped out of her trance "What! No! Tara, I..." she started, but heard someone else
"Alana-chan?" Kakashi walked next to Alana. He looked around and so no one. "Who are you talking you?"
Alana's eyes went wide and she turned back to where Tara was. She was gone Tara..."
Tara looked at her sister from a nearby tree. She saw Kakashi and Alana hug and kiss "I guess you found your other half also..." Tara smiled sadly at this "I wish you would accept my other half too..."
"Tara-chan, daijowu?" Itachi asked the young girl.
Tara shock her head "Mm-mm. I'm ok." She turned to Itachi "Let's go check on the kids." Itachi nodded and the two disappeared.
"La-la-la-la-CONGA!" Devin sweat dropped as she looked at the conga line. Shail was in the front, behind her was Miharu with a pocky stick in her mouth, then Saeki (Me: Hehehe...), then Mei and Joan in the end.
"Does Miharu do this often?" Devin asked Haku who was next to her
Haku sweat dropped slightly "Only when she eats pocky..."
"Well that explains everything..." Joan said, and then grinned and jumped up and joined the line "La-la-la-la-CONGA!"
"Hey, can someone untie me? I promise I won't pounce and try to kill people anymore." Miru begged from where she was sitting. She was tied up my Mei, so that she wouldn't kill anyone. Natsumi untied the girl "Thanks"
"Hehe..." Natsumi grinned and joined the conga line, dragging Miru along "This is fun!" she grinned "Let's go! Join the fun Hayashi-chan!"
Hayashi smiled shyly "Umm...no thank y..." Natsumi then grabbed her hand and pulled her in to the conga line
"La-la-la-la-CONGA!" all of them yelled.
Stephany joined the conga-line also, and Saeki's pup was behind her (He is also in the conga line... I'm reminded of Excel saga for some reason)
"Let's go Sammy!" Stephany grinned and the doggy barked
"Whoo, go Sammy!" Saeki grinned
"That dog is just like you." Mei sighed
"Devin-kun, what's going on?" Devin looked behind her and saw Itachi and Tara watching the conga-line with interest and confusion.
"They ate pocky..." Devin sighed "Oh well, you know what they say! If you can't beat them..." Devin grinned and joined the conga line "...Join them!"
"Kids will be kids..." Tara sighed, and Itachi nodded
"Yo Sasuke!" Naruto grinned
"Yo dobe." Sasuke smirked as Naruto went berserk and started yelling at him.
"You again! Stop calling me that! You should have some respect for the future Hokage!" Naruto growled
"Yeah right." Sasuke growled back
"Sasuke-no-baka!"
"Dobe!"
"Oi..." the two stopped bickering at looked at Gaara who appeared "Have you seen Kira?"
"Oh yeah, that reminds me! I was looking for Hinata-chan!" Naruto exclaimed
"Kira is with Laura and Hokage-sama in the living room, participating in Jiraya pranking, and Hinata is napping on the lounge chair in the living room." Sasuke explained.
"Ok, lets go get them!" Naruto grinned
"Be quiet, dobe." Sasuke said and walked away, Gaara following.
Naruto growled and pouted. "Sasuke-no-baka..." he then noticed that no one was around "Wah, wait for me!"
"Con...ga..." Miharu stuttered out as she lied on the floor, with swirly eyes and everything.
"What's wrong with her?" Hayashi asked
"She is experiencing a pocky overdose..." Haku sweat dropped and picked Miharu off the floor.
"That means the party's over, right?" Stephany asked as she held Sam in her arms.
"Hey, give me back Sammy!" Saeki said.
"No! Doggy mine!" Stephany pouted
"No, mine!"
"Mine!"
"MINE!"
The two continued to bicker over whose dog Sam was, not noticing that Mei was watching them with interest and holding Sam in her arms "I guess you'll stuck with me for the time being!" Mei grinned evilly at the doggy, and Sam whimpered at her look. (And once again, I am reminded of Excel and Menchi)
Natsumi sat against the wall where Haku placed Miharu. "So, you two are a couple, huh?" she asked Haku.
"Huh?" Haku blushed slightly, and Natsumi pointed at his arm that was around Miharu. "Well...yeah..." he blushed more.
"That's so sweet." She smiled
"What about you?" Haku asked
"Eh?" Natsumi looked at him
"Do you have a special person?" Haku asked
"Hmmm..." Natsumi looked at the ceiling, thinking "Now that I think of it...I have my friends...I'm not fond of romantic issues but it seems like fate wants me to be somehow involved with it." She said
"I see." Haku looked at Miharu again and smiled.
"You two look so cute. You all nice and sweet, and she all serious and stuff." She then thought for a second "Well...until she eats pocky!" Haku nodded.
Joan yawned slightly. "I'm sleepy" she looked around the room and saw Devin with a blanket. Devin didn't even have time to blink when the blanket disappeared.
"WTF!" Devin looked around and saw Joan with her blanket "THAT'S MINE!" she growled, and Joan just stuck her tongue out. Suddenly, the blanket disappeared out of Joel's hand. She blinked and looked at Miru. She was holding it!
"YOU!" Joel growled and went to pounce at Miru, but Devin pounced on her, making them land on Miru and starting a war.
"Oh..." Hayashi looked at them worriedly "Please stop that!" she walked to them and tried to calm them down, but no avail. (This kinda reminds me of Mihoshi when she tries to calm Ryoko and Ayeka...and they push her in to the lake...)
"Ne, ne..." Shail looked at Itachi and Tara.
"What is it Shail-chan?" Tara looked at her.
"Do you still love your sister?" Shail asked
"...yes..." Tara said softly.
"And what about you and your brother?" Shail looked at Itachi
Itachi was silent for a few seconds "To be honest..." he started "...I want us to be like before..." he said, reminiscing when he and Sasuke were younger. (They were so cute then!)
"Then it will be ok!" Shail said happily
"Huh?" both of the grownups looked at her
"All you need is the will! Everything else will come in place!" Shail said "And I'm sure Kira-nee-san and Laura-kun will help you two out!"
"I hope so..." Tara whispered
Jiraya woke up and stretched his arms. "Aah, that was a nice nap." He got up from the couch and looked around. He saw Tsunade sitting in one of the lounge chairs and it seemed that she was hiding a grin. Laura-chan and Kira-chan were sitting in front of the TV, but they turned around to look at him and looked like they were stifling giggles. Hinata-chan was also there, but she was napping on the other lounge chair.
"Laura, I need..." Sasuke ran in to the room, but he saw Jiraya and froze on the spot. Jiraya had white powder all over his face; on his lips was a sickly shade of red lipstick that was smeared all around. His cheeks were a light pink color, and there he had eyeliner also and mascara. His nails were painted pink and his hair had glitter all over it.
Gaara walked in to the room casually, but when he saw Jiraya he froze next to Sasuke.
"Hey, what's going on?" Naruto also ran in to the room, but his reaction was slightly different. Sure, he did froze, but he was the first to burst out laughing.
"OH MY GOD!" he stuttered out "Y...you...Ero-sennin is a girl!" Naruto exclaimed loudly, waking Hinata up.
"N...Naruto-kun?" she yawned and looked at Jiraya and started laughing also.
"What!" Jiraya growled and looked at himself in a nearby mirror. He was silent for a few seconds before he screamed. His scream was enough to set off the three responsible for this in to a mad fit of giggles. Jiraya turned around angrily "YOU!" he yelled out "YOU DID THIS!"
Tsunade grinned from ear to ear "It was so tempting, I couldn't resist!"
Suddenly, a black and red background appeared and Jiraya was enlarged 10 times and was looking very scary, and Tsunade looked scared "I will not forgive you..."
"C...c'mon Jiraya, it's no big deal..." Tsunade grinned slightly, before she ran out of the room, screaming, Jiraya hot on her trail. (Its so funny, I have the image of this in my head!)
Everyone else in the room bursted out laughing (Well, Gaara and Sasuke were just smiling, or smirking...). "T...that was too rich!" Naruto gasped out
"Who though of this?" Hinata giggled as she latched on to Naruto's arm (Aww...so kawaii!)
"I did!" Laura grinned proudly, but noticed her sisters glare "With the help of my sister of course!" the two of them high-fived
Kira smiled again and looked at Gaara "Gaara-sama! You are smiling!" Kira smiled and latched on to his arm.
"I...guess I am..." Gaara said.
"I guess Kira-chan has a stronger effect on you than we thought!" Naruto exclaimed loudly (He's always loud)
"Hehe, I guess you're right." Kira smiled and did something no one expected...
...It stunned everyone...
...especially Gaara...
...she planted a small, shy kiss on Gaara's cheek...
