"Trapped with you" by Lady Cell
Neko-Chan: Guess who's back!
DMG: Back again!
GothicAngel: ((Bonks them both on the head)) Urusae. That song is annoying
DMG: Aww, you're no fun
Neko-Chan: Well anyway, Lady-chan is too busy, and since us three didn't help out for the past few chapters, this one is completely ours
DMG: Ooooooh, Lady is so gonna hate us!
GothicAngel: Say what you want, she likes my writings...
DMG: ...I hate you...
"What did you tell him?" Kabuto asked Miho
"I told him I was bored." Miho said
"And now we're going to Konoha just because you are bored." Kabuto said "Do you realize how much they hate us there?"
"Don't worry, everything will turn out nicely." Miho smiled softly.
"He always listens to her..." Kabuto sighed "It's still risky..."
"Why must you fight children?" Orochimaru smirked.
"Why does he call me a child? No fair." Miho pouted mentally. "Are we going, Orochimaru-sama?"
Orochimaru smirked "Yes."
15th chapter: "No love is perfect?"
Tsunade looked out the window, sighing. Already 2 weeks have passed, and there were two more to go. Two weeks with almost no connection to the world, with some of the craziest people in all of Konoha...and even further... (Yes, we speeded up things a bit, since only about...three or four days passed in the previous chapters, and if continued like that, we would have over 100 chapters!)
So many things happened. Like the unbelievable romance between Kira and Gaara, the unsuspected announcement of Laura and Sasuke being engaged, the many couples that bloomed over night, the new, unsuspected arrivals...they never did tell her how they came in the house...being locked in that weird dimension for who knows how long...
Her train of thoughts was interrupted by a bone-chilling screams coming from the kitchen
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" Two panicky screams erupted thru the house
"Cockroach, cockroach, cockroach!" Laura squeaked as she ran thru the kitchen
"Kowai, kowai, kowai, kowai..." Kira was right behind her. The reason of their panic? The evil cockroach that was chasing them all over the kitchen.
The rest of the gang was looking at them with the slightest hint of interest...well...except for Alana who fainted.
"I don't know why, but this is interesting." Kiba said as he watched them run around.
"I wonder how long can they go on like that..." Natsumi said
"They have a very nasty phobia of cockroaches..." Mei sweat dropped
"Oi, they're your girlfriends, don't you plan on helping them?" Saeki asked Sasuke and Gaara, who also found interest in this 'chase'
"Maybe latter..." they muttered.
"What's with them?" Hayashi wondered and Joan grabbed her hand
"Ahem." Joan coughed and pointed once again at the fleeing girls. Since it was only morning, they were in their pajamas. Laura was wearing her blue boxers and a black and blue stripped tank-top, while Kira was wearing a black and, might I add, very short nightgown, and they were both running around like crazy "I don't think words are necessary..."
Stephany got a Naruto™ shocked look "T...typical..."
"TASKETE!" both of the fleeing girls screamed out in terror. They then tripped and ended up in a corner, the cockroach advancing towards them. They hugged each other and screamed in sheer terror
"I guess we should save them now..." Sasuke sighed, but when he and Gaara were about to interfere, Shino appeared in-between the cockroach and the girls.
Shino looked at the cockroach, and it stopped moving. "Go away." He said simply and the cockroach turned around and crawled away, going up the cupboards and out the window. He turned around and faced the two frightened girls and offered them a hand.
Laura and Kira both looked at Shino, they had little tears in the corner of their eyes. And almost as if they planed, they blushed at the same time as they found a new respect for their 'savior'. At the same moment the girls grabbed on to Shino's hand and he pulled them both up.
"Domo arigato, Shino-san." The girl both bowed, still slightly blushing. Shino just silently nodded.
On the other hand, some of the people present got a new found respect for the noble Shino, while others found him as a threat.
"Shino. Will. Die..." Gaara thought, clenching his fist. The fact that his girlfriend was 'saved' by Shino and that she blushed was more than enough to drive him nuts.
Sasuke stayed completely silent, but was sending a nasty glare in Shino's direction.
"Waaa! Shino-san sugoooi..." Joan, Mei, Miru, Stephany and even Devin got hearts in their eyes, causing Kiba and Natsumi to boil with anger and/or jealousy.
"Chikuso...Stephany is going all gaa-gaa over Shino!" Kiba growled "Look at him, acting so cool!"
"Well I'm glad he has a fan club of his own!" Natsumi humped and glared at the slightly love-struck girls
Saeki waved a hand in front of Mei's and Miru's face, but they didn't even blink. "Mataku. A guy does one cool thing and he has his own fan club..." he then looked at the temporary 'Shino-hatter bunch' and sighed "Yare, yare...with a fan club always comes a hate club..."
"WOW, SHINO-SAN SUGOOOOOI!" Shail screamed in excitement and jumped in happiness "He chased away the evil cockroach, and he was so cool, and he saved Kira-nee-san, and...YAAAAAY!" she giggled and then glomped Shino, who turned a few shades redder "You're my idol, will you teach me to be as cool as you!"
"Hey, I thought I was your idol!" Kankuro whined, but Shail was too busy glomping Shino to notice him "S...she ignored me..." he cried chibi tears
"What is going on here!" Tsunade's stern voice erupted thru the kitchen. "Who was screaming like they were getting butchered and..." she stepped on something and looked down "...Why is Alana unconscious?"
"Umm..." Joan started, but Shail jumped in front of her
"Shino-san was soooo cool! He saved them, and he looked so cool, and..." she started bubbling in her cute way, but Saeki continued for her
"Kira and Laura were being chased by a cockroach, and they have a very nasty phobia, and Shino chased the cockroach away." He said calmly
"And the unconscious nekojin?" Tsunade raised her eyebrow (Nekojin stands for something along the lines of "Cat people", so she meant "And the unconscious cat girl?")
"She is also cockroach-phobic." Saeki said
Tsunade was about to question why were most of the girls drooling and why were Kiba, Sasuke, Gaara and even sweet little Natsumi ready to kill off someone, but then she tied two and two together and realized everything "Oh." She got a small sweat drop and cleared her throat "Well try to keep it down. Some people are still sleeping." she said and walked away.
"Hai, Tsunade-sama..." Saeki sighed and turned back, only to get a Naruto™ shocked face at what he was seeing.
The Shino fan club was now completely surrounding the poor Shino and showering him with questions and 'You're so cool' remarks, while the poor boy tried to get away. The Shino hater club was baring their teeth and glaring at him with all their might...if looks could kill, Shino would be butchered already.
Shino looked at Saeki with a 'help me' look, and Saeki sweat dropped. Should he help Shino in any way or does he value his life more than that? Saeki cleared his throat "WHO'S UP FOR ANOTHER EPISODE OF YU YU HAKUSHO? THERE'S A HIEI AND KURAMA SPECIAL TODAY!" he yelled out and all the girls slowly turned their heads from Shino, like they were demons, their mouth twisted in a evil smile and their fangs showing and their eyes glowing a dangerous demonic red.
...Saeki felt scared...
...Hell, anyone would be terrified of that!...
...And milliseconds latter, Saeki saw a horde of crazed fangirls about to trample him...
Luckily for Saeki, Shino was very thankful for his sacrifice and helped him get out of the trampling. Saeki was lifted to the ceiling by Shino's bugs and was safe and sound. After the coast was clear, Saeki was gently put down to the ground. "Thank you, I owe you one" Saeki grinned as Shino walked up to him.
"You helped me a great deal." Shino said "I should be thanking you." He said, and at that moment, Gaara, Sasuke and Kiba passed him, Gaara and Sasuke glaring at him and Kiba 'accidentally' nudged him on the shoulder as he walked out. Following them was Natsumi, and she passed Shino without even looking at him, but it was more than obvious that she was angry. But before she was out of sight, she threw a glare at Shino.
"Woah, nasty glare dude...I would be scared if that glare was directed at me..." Saeki admitted and looked at Shino, who looked like... "Are you...blushing!"
"N...no!" Shino stuttered.
"You like her, don't you?" Saeki asked, but Shino stayed quiet. Saeki sighed "So you do, huh? Too bad I can't help you, I don't have any luck with gi..." he started, but a happy shrill interrupted him
"Saeki-kuuuun!" a familiar voice giggled and Saeki was tackled to the ground by a happy blond.
"I...Ino!" Saeki blushed madly
"Did you miss me?" she giggled and glomped him, making the boy turn a few more shades of red.
"H...hai...Ino-chan..." Saeki blushed again as she continued glomping him. Shino sweat dropped slightly and walked away from the love birds.
After about 1 hour of watching the Hiei and Kurama special and Gaara's, Sasuke's, Kiba's and Natsumi's bad mood, Devin decided to go take a walk outside.
"Chikuso...what the hell was I thinking? I don't even like Shino..." she muttered angrily "My Fangirl-ism got the best of me..." she sighed and continued walking thru the calming gardens.
The silence soothed her soul...she should do this more often!
Suddenly, someone grabbed her from behind and locked her in a hug. "NANI!" she growled and tried to get out of the man's grip, but her arms were immobilized. "Hanase yo!" she screamed and started kicking and screaming.
"Oi, calm down..." a soothing, male's voice whispered in her ear.
"Dare?" Devin demanded an answer
"Don't worry...I will not hurt you." He said and then they both...dissapeared...
"Ne, ne, Devin-chan wa doko ni?" Kira asked after the special was over.
"She got bored and went for a walk outside earlier." Laura replied, now watching the One Piece marathon that started (Omg, I wish I had whatever channel they are watching)
"Oh..." Kira sighed "Ne, ne, Mei-chan, do you wanna help me look for her?"
Mei shrugged "Yeah, I ain't got nothin' better to do. Shino disappeared, so I ain't got anyone to hunt and Saeki is with his blondie so I have no one to annoy." She said and she and Kira walked out. After a few seconds, Gaara got up too and followed them.
Saeki came in to the room, looking as if he just came back from a jungle. He was breathing heavily and was slightly red in the face (tee-hee). He then looked at the TV "Hey, is that One piece?"
"Yeah." Miru replied, nibbling on her popcorn. Saeki sat next to her
"Pass the popcorn." He said, his eyes glued to the TV
Shail was looking at the TV when she dropped the popcorn she was about to put in her mouth. "Runaway pop!" she said, but no one paid attention. She shrugged and kneeled down on the floor, looking for it. "Poppy, poppy popcorn...where are you?" she asked in a sing-song voice as she checked under the couch. "Ah, there you are!" she smiled.
The popcorn was on the other side. But who would bother with going to the other side, so she crawled under the couch to get it. "Aww, now you're all dirty!" she whined when she got the popcorn, but then noticed something else.
Hiding behind the door, where no one was looking, was Shino. Shail waved at him, and he got a 'damn it' face. He made a gesture that said 'keep quiet', and Shail nodded. "Ok Shino-san! I will be quiet!" she grinned happily and Shino slapped his forehead.
"Aah, Shino-kun." The girls went hearts and Shino knew that he was going to regret being there...
Shail shrugged her shoulders as the Shino fanclub made a circle around him again and decided to go find Kira.
Devin and her captor appeared in a dark room, lit only by candles
"Where the hell are we?" Devin growled angrily after her captor released her. She turned around to glare at him, and saw a guy with silver hair and glasses. He looked quite...charming "And who the hell are you!"
He scratched the back of his head "I didn't tell you my name! Hah, that was rude of me, wasn't it? I'm Kabuto" he introduced himself and offered her his hand in a friendly shake.
"Do you usually befriend your hostage or am I the first?" Devin narrowed her eyes.
"Well..." Kabuto started.
"Kabuto, did you bring her here?" a soft, female's voice asked politely. A girl with silver hair and red eyes came out from the darkness of the room
"Yeah Miho." Kabuto answered to the girl.
"Who the hell are you people? What do you want from me?" Devin growled, getting impatient.
Miho smiled "I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to replace you now." She said and put her hands in a seal and turned in to the exact replica of Devin.
"What do you mean replace me!" Devin hissed, but Miho ignored her.
"And what do we do with her?" Kabuto asked
"We can't hurt her. We will have to send her back sometime." Miho said "Ja ne..." she disappeared in a puff of smoke.
Devin had about enough of this. She grabbed Kabuto by his collar and slammed him against the wall "Alright pretty boy, I want answers right NOW! What do you want with me! Who do you work for! What the heck do you want to do anyway?" she hissed
"Patience, patience." Kabuto gave away an annoying smart-ass smile.
"I'll give you patience!" Devin took out a kunai and was about to stab him, but he turned in to a log. "Chikuso!" she growled and turned around, only to be slammed in to the wall the way Kabuto was earlier.
"You're too loud." Kabuto said and did something that Devin was sure to kill him for latter.
He kissed her.
Devin's eyes widened at his sudden and unexpected action. She was so stunned, that when she realized what he was doing it was too late. She felt a bittersweet substance wash over her tongue and she swallowed it, instantly feeling very sleepy. Kabuto broke the kiss and she glared at him thru sleepy eyes
"Kono...yaro...you had...a sleeping potion...in your mouth..." she said before she fell asleep.
Kabuto caught her limp body and looked at her. "Eeh...she actually looks nice when she's not pissed off..." he thought
Kira and Mei were in the garden "Devin-chan!" Kira called out
"Oi, Devin!" Mei joined her "Where could she be?"
"I don't know." Kira said.
"Minna-san..." they heard a familiar voice behind them and turned around.
"Devin-chan!" Kira gasped "Where were you? We were looking all over for you!"
"I was just taking a stroll." Devin said softly.
"Ok then…Let's go back and try to hunt down Shino before anyone else does, k?" Mei asked
"Alright Mei." Devin said and they started walking back to the house.
"Oi, Mei…" Kira started, speaking silently so that Devin wouldn't hear her
"Nani?"
"Is it just me, or is Devin kinda…weird?"
"It must be the fresh air or the fangirlsm or something…"
"Oh…ok then…"
Shail walked around happily when she saw her…second most favorite person in the world! "Gaara-ni-san! Oi, Gaara-ni-san!" she grinned happily. Gaara turned around and saw the brown-eyed girl come to him. "Gaara-ni-san, are you looking for Kira too?"
"Y…yeah…" Gaara said
"Great, then we'll look for her together!" Shail giggled and started dragging Gaara around until they saw Kira, Mei and Devin.
"It seems they found Devin." Gaara said.
"Devin?" Shail blinked and smelled the air "That…doesn't smell like Devin…"
"I…is she a dog or something?" Gaara sweat dropped slightly
"It smells like…like someone who was around…" Shail sniffed the air once again, and her eyes widened "Aniki! Aniki was here!" she yelled out and started running towards the three girls. "Aniki!"
"Eh? Shail-nee-chan?" Kira blinked when she saw the girl running towards them. "Gaara-sama?" she saw the red-head behind Shail
"Aniki…" Shail breathed "Aniki wa doko ni?"
"Aniki?" Kira blinked as she latched on to Gaara's arm
"You have a brother?" Mei asked
"Yeah, I do! I am certain he's around here somewhere!" Shail said and pointed at Devin "You smell like you've been around my aniki!"
'Devin' blinked, and then Mei sniffed her "What are you doing?"
"Smelling you." Mei said and then turned to Shail "I dunno Shail, she smells normal to me."
"But I am certain I smelled him…" Shail whined
"Maybe your nose is playing tricks on you." Devin said dryly, making Shail pout.
"Well whatever is going on, lets just get home, ok?" Kira said "Ikuzo, Gaara-sama!"
Saeki knew he was going to regret this. The things that were to follow were unavoidable. He sighed "I KNOW I am going to regret doing this…" he thought and saw the girl he was looking for "Oi, Natsumi!"
Natsumi blinked and turned around. She saw Saeki "What is it, Saeki-kun?"
"Shino's in the kitchen, he wants to talk with you." Saeki said
"Humph, see if I care!" Natsumi turned around to walk away, but Saeki stopped her
"No please, listen to me! He has something very important to tell you!" Saeki said
"Oh? He can talk?" Natsumi frowned slightly
"Please?" Saeki begged, throwing his best puppy eyes, and Natsumi sighed. He had learned from the best you know (He's Sam-sensei's pupil)
"Hai, hai. I'll be there in five minutes." Natsumi said
"Yosha! Arigato Natsumi-chan!" he grinned and ran off to somewhere
Kira, Gaara and co walked in to the kitchen, Shail was still slightly pouting. There they saw Saeki walking in with Shino
"So you see, Natsumi wants to talk to you. She'll be here in no time!" Saeki barely hid his grin.
"A…alright…" Shino muttered.
"Aaah, Shino-san!" Kira and Mei went hearts. Devin was too bored to bother him and Shail was too busy pouting to bother him.
"O…oi girls, don't go all fangirlistic on Shino now!" Saeki whined
"Aww, why not?" Mei pouted and Saeki got closer to her to whisper
"I'm tryin' to hook him and Natsumi up, she's gonna be here any minute" Saeki whispered
"Aww…" Mei pouted "Oh well, it was a good run while it lasted "Let's go Devin, Shail." She said and the two girls followed her out of the kitchen. Saeki sighed in relief
"That was easy…" he thought "Hai, maybe we should get going then?" he turned to Gaara and Kira
Gaara went almost ballistic when he saw Kira go all hearts over Shino, but what ticked him really off was when she blushed. He heard Shukaku yelling in his head something along the lines of 'Kill that son of a bitch, kill him!' (Oooh, Shukaku is back to his old self again), but he was too caught up in his own thoughts to follow Shukaku's orders "How dare she blush for anyone else?" he thought angrily and ripped his hand out of her grip.
"Oh boy…" Saeki thought nervously after seeing that
Gaara then grabbed her wrist and started dragging her out of the kitchen "Let's go Kira." He ordered
"Gaara-sama…" Kira started, completely dazzled by his behavior
"I said we're GOING!" Gaara yelled, and Kira instantly shut up. For the first time since she met him, she felt slightly…afraid of him…
He continued dragging her, and on the way she saw Mei "Hey, what's wrong?" she asked, but Gaara simply glared at her and a mass of sand pushed her away and slammed her against the nearest wall
"Mei!" Kira yelled out, but Gaara continued dragging her and before she knew it, she was in her old room…
"D…did he just…yell at her?" Saeki thought, completely surprised at what just happened. They seemed like the perfect couple, what was this all about! A few minutes after they left the kitchen, he ran out also "Good luck Shino!" he yelled out to his friend. When outside of the kitchen, he saw Mei getting up from against the wall. She looked like someone punched her really hard and she also looked slightly…scared to say the least "Mei, did you…?"
"W…what happened…to Gaara all of a sudden?" she stuttered, her eyes wide open "I know he isn't the nicest person in the world, but why…"
"He got jealous!" Saeki explained "Which way did he and Kira go!"
"That way." She pointed at the room where Kira and Gaara shared their first kiss.
"C'mon!" he yelled out and they both ran to that room. Mei's hand quickly went for the knob, but a mass of sand grabbed her arm and she screamed out, then the sand pushed her away again, but this time instead of slamming against the wall, Saeki caught her. The force the sand used to push Mei away was so powerful that Saeki couldn't completely stop her, so they both slammed against the wall. Saeki slowly sat up and helped Mei "You alive?"
"Yeah, I think so…" she winced "I guess people have a nag for slamming me against walls today" she joked and then turned serious "What the fuck is going on?"
"I guess Gaara's really pissed right now…" he said "I suggest we don't piss him off further unless we have to."
"And when will we have to?" Mei asked
"When he gets to the point of hurting even Kira…"
GothicAngel: ((smiles darkly)) Yes, I believe that was quite the dramatic twist I wanted in this story
Neko-Chan: Hah, about time to stir up that so called perfect relation ship
DMG: But why didn't we put more of us in the story?
GothicAngel: Because silly, the KiraxGaara pairing is the main one, and we wanted to show that the so called 'perfect' couple wasn't so perfect after all
Neko-chan: Lady is gonna hate us for this, but she made Gaara too soft. It's about time to show off what he's really like. And besides, you know that GothicAngel-chan is a dark goth and that she likes 'touching' moments like these, unlike Lady-chan, the perky goth chick who doesn't really enjoy moments like these, so it's about time we get a bit dark
DMG: Yes, I guess you're right. Oh well, that was an unexpected event, don't you agree dear readers? Did we spoil the entire story again or what ((Goofy grin))
