The lottery: part 2

Merph. The beginning is too romantic

Tenten slowly rose her eyes. She could feel her face on something nice and soft, a feeling the had always dreamt of. She still thought she was asleep, so she snuggled up a little. She didn't wonder what she was resting her head on, but she knew it was really nice, so she rubbed her head agents it.

"Tenten!! What the crap?!!?" a deep voice asked.

Tenten quickly opened her eyes and pulled her head away from what she was laying on, which was Neji's shoulder.

"Huh? Wha?" Tenten asked confused. She relized she was in a pod with Neji in it. Then remembered what happened the other day, with the mask and everything.

"Were you in this pod with me the whole night?" Tenten asked.

"Yes, and I couldn't sleep because you wouldn't stop snuggling on my shoulder!!" Neji complained. Tenten blushed a little.

"I did that all night?" Tenten asked.

"You also kept drooling on my jacket, and you kept trying to kiss me!!" Neji wined. Tenten's face immediately turned red.

"Pod will open in 2 hours," the computer said.

"Yeah, and that computer kept me awake too," Neji added, rubbing his eye a little.

Tenten was now becoming strangely afraid of Neji after what he just told her, and she just wanted to run away. Problem was, she couldn't until 2 hours were up.

"Well, I can't go back to sleep, I'm wide awake," Tenten said, raising her hands up.

"Ack!! You almost pulled out some of my hair!" Neji said, "Be careful, the area we're in is really small, and I don't like tight places, it just seems like it'll close up on us any second now…"

"Don't be ridiculous Neji," said Tenten, trying to comfort him, "It's just two more hours…"

"I've waited 8 hours and I'm going INSANE!!!!" Neji yelled as his face turned red.

"Ok…then maybe we can find something to do…," Tenten suggested.

"Like what?" Neji asked, "The only thing we can do is talk!"

"Ok then, let's talk!" said Tenten.

"ABOUT WHAT?!?"

"I don't know, I just wanted to think of something to do cuz you seem really bored."

Tenten's eyes started to get a little watery; Neji felt a little bad about yelling at her.

"Uhh…. maybe we can see what these buttons do," Neji suggested.

-Flashback-

"GOOO TOO SLEEEEPPP!!!! GO TO SLEEEP!!! GO TO SLEEEP WITTLE ASTRUNAUT!!!"

-End flash back-

"Seems too dangerous," Tenten said with a frightful look on her face.

"Well, this time we should push the buttons with the labels," Neji said, eyeing the button that said "Food" on it.

"Ok, fine, I'm getting pretty thirsty. I hope there are a few drinks," said Tenten as she watched Neji press the food button.

A small window in the pod opened and it had a tray with a glass of clear liquid in it.

"Here is your water," a computer voice said.

"Water…that's close enough," said Neji as he took the glass of water.

"Hey, can you hand me that water?" Tenten asked Neji.

"Sure, I can always push the food button again to give me some water," Neji said as he handed Tenten the glass of water. She started drinking out of it.

Neji looked at the Food button and then pressed it.

"We're sorry, but we're all out of food," the computer voice said.

"WHAT?!" Neji screamed, "but we're only used the food button once!!"

"Don't yell like that, this pod is really small," said Tenten as she tried to scoot over a bit.

"Oh, sorry," Neji said, now eying the water Tenten was drinking. For some reason, Tenten could see Neji drooling a little as he looked at the glass of water.

"What? Want some?" Tenten asked.

"But you drank out of it already!" Neji said, "It has germs!"

"Well, everything has germs, and in a situation like this, you should drink some water."

"I don't know… I can just wait two hours…after not eating or drinking anything in the last 24 hours."

"Are you trying to bribe me into giving you my water because that only works if the person didn't offer you the item in the first place."

"I can just wait…"

"Are you sure? Because You look really thirsty…"

"No…I can…ok fine!!! I'll drink the water!!"

Tenten handed Neji the glass of water. He slowly took the glass of water (still afraid of the germs) gulped out of it a little and then handed it back to Tenten. Then Tenten took a sip out of the water.

"Do you like me or something?" Neji asked, "Because you wouldn't have offered me a drink of water that you've already drank of just so I can drink out of the same water that you drank out of and then drink the water again because I drank out of it!!!"

Tenten only caught the first part of what Neji said, and then spilled the water on him.

"I was just worried about you damnit!" Tenten said, "Can't you show a little appreciation for someone who cares for you…I mean…. is worried about you?"

"Riiiggggghhhtttt, you were worried about me!" Neji said as he crossed his arms. But then he accidentally tugged Tenten a little.

"Stop it!!" Tenten said as she softly slapped his face. But her she didn't pull her hand away when she slapped him because his skin was nice…and soft…

Neji held the wrist of the hand Tenten used to slap him and sweetly kissed Tenten's cheek. Then moved to the lips.

Tenten could feel Neji's hand around her waist, trying to pull her closer. So, she decided to kiss him back. When Neji go the message that Tenten liked him, he started kissing her harder.

"Awww!! Sasuke, why can't we be like that?" Sakura asked Sasuke out side of the pod, watching Neji and Tenten kissing. Sasuke scooted over a little.

"Should we let them out, all we have to do is push the 'open' button out side of the pod," Naruto said.

"Nah, let's wait another 15 minutes," Ino said.

"And to think they don't even notice us!" Kiba said as he recorded the two in the pod.

Back in the pod----------

Neji slowly broke from his kiss with Tenten as he opened his eyes.

"Ok, what was that all about?" Tenten asked Neji.

"Uhh…..I tripped," Neji said as an excuse.

"Yeah…. You just wanted me to kiss you and in order for me to kiss you you'd have to kiss me and…stuff. And plus1 How could you trip, we're in a small pod here!!"

"Uhh…the water on the ground made me slip."

"Riiiigggghhhhhhttttt, that's why you moved your head to my lips and pulled me closer!!"

…

Neji ran out of things to say.

"Ok, you win, I didn't trip," said Neji.

"You just couldn't help it! I'm too pretty!!" Tenten bragged.

And then they heard the pod open up. They were free!!!

"Wow, 2 hours already passed by," Neji said.

"No, actually we let you out early because we felt bad for you," Naruto said right next to them.

"Well, why didn't you let us out earlier?!?!" Tenten asked.

" It was getting cute," Sakura said, "Now, lets go get some breakfast, I found the kitchen right across the hall!"

So everyone floated across the hall. Floating is fun.

Sakura flew over to a cabinet and opened it up. There were stuff in tooth paste tubes labeled "Food".

"Well, I guess we can give these a try," Sakura said as she handed everyone a toothpaste tube.

Sasuke opened up the lid to the tube and squeezed out some weird stuff.

"Holy crap!! It looks like dog shit!!" Naruto said as he squeezed the stuff out of the toothpaste tube.

"Uhhh…don't judge a food by it's aperance," Sakura said as she took a little lick of the food.

"Holy crap!! This tastes like dog shit!!!" Sakura screamed as she threw the tooth paste to the ground and started throwing up.

"Ok…I pass," Kiba said as he put his toothpaste tube back in the cabinet. So did everyone else. And when Sakura came back, Naruto asked a dumb question,

"Sakura-chan, how would you know what dog shit tasted like if you never tried it? Does that mean…"

Two minutes of bloody violence.

"Oh god, I'm starving!" Sakura wined as she rubbed her tummy.

"I haven't eaten since the day before yesterday!" Chouji said.

Sluuuuuuurrrrrpppp

Everyone turned to Shikamaru "Coca Cola" who was enjoying his cola.

"Oh, Hi everyone! Enjoy breakfast?" Shikamaru happily asked.

"Shikamaru, hand over the cola and we won't hurt you," Ino politely said.

"NEVAHH!!!!" Shikamaru hissed as he ran away.

"COME BACK WITH THAT COLA!!!" Sasuke yelled taking out a pitch fork. Everyone else took out lighted torches and pointy knives. VERY pointy knives.

"You'll never catch me!! I'm Coca COLA!!!" Shikamaru yelled as he was being chased by an angry mob.

Shikamaru took a left on the turn and then pushed a button that made a door open into a room. And Shikamaru went into that room then the door closed.

Bump! Bump!!!

"Open the damn door Shikamaru!!" Naruto yelled, banging on the door.

"You'll never catch me alive!!!" Shikamaru said.

"Then we'll kill you before we catch you, and then catch you so we don't have to catch you alive!" Kiba said, "It'd be much more pleasant!!"

"Nooooo!!! I'm too young to suffocate from no cola!!!" Shikamaru cried.

BANG!!! The door fell off.

Shikamaru scooted back agents the wall.

"We've got you now Shikamaru!" Sasuke said, pointing his pitch fork at Shikamaru.

"No!!! I have to say my last words to Pimpy!" Shikamaru said.

"Pimpy?" everyone asked.

"Yes, he's my limited edition vanilla cola can, leave me alone," Shikamaru explained, "I'm so sorry Pimpy, but I must use you as a sacrifice….DIE SASUKE!!!!"

Shikamaru threw "Pimpy" at Sasuke's face and made a run for it.

"GET HIM!!!!" Everyone not hit by Pimpy said, talking out more torches and pointy knives.

Shikamaru ran for his non-cola-free life, struggling to even walk half the way. He looked back to see if everyone was still chasing him and unfortunately, they still were.

Coca Cola kept running until he turned into a dead end with nothing there but a window, then turned around and saw a bunch of angry people just waiting to stab him.

"God damnit, what's a dead end doing in a space ship?" Shikamaru asked.

"We've got you now Shikamaru," Naruto said with an evil tone, "Say your last prayers!!"

"You've not REALLY gonna kill me are ya?" Shikamaru asked panting.

"Of course not!" Ino said.

"Yay!!!" Shikamaru cheered.

"I was kidding when I said that."

"… DAMNIT!!!!"

"Prepare to die Coca Cola!" Kiba said, holding up his torch. But suddenly, Shikamaru took out a shovel and pointed it at the angry mob.

"I've got a shovel, and I'm not afraid to hit the window and make you all suffocate!!!" he said.

"What? But you'll die too!" Lee said.

"Yes, I will, but It's a sacrifice I'm willing to make!!!" Shikamaru proudly stated.

"Man, this guy is serious about his cola," Hinata said, "GET HIM!!!!!"

Everyone ran towards Shikamaru, but Shikamaru rose the shovel and swung it towards the window and hit it.

…

The window didn't break.

"Damnit, the window's break proof," Shikamaru muttered.

…

"KILL HIM!!!" Naruto hissed.

Everyone started chanting "KILL HIM!! KILL HIM!!! KILL HIM!!!"

"WAIT!!!" Shikamaru shouted, "Can't we all just get along? I mean, we've practically known each other since…what? Ninja Academy! And here we are, about to kill the hell outta each other."

Everyone paused for a moment.

"Yeah, he's right," Shikamaru heard in the crowd.

"BUT HE DIDN'T GIVE US THE COLA!!!" Lee yelled, pointing at Shikamaru.

"YEAH!!" everyone else said in unison.

"I packed peanut butter jelly sandwiches in the fridge," Shikamaru said.

"Wha? Really?" Naruto asked.

"Why didn't you say that before?" Sakura asked, "Let's go each sandwiches!"

And everyone went off to eat sandwiches.

"Alone with cola at last!" Shikamaru said.

--------------------

thebluekirby: ACK!!! Wait!!! The story isn't over yet!! Heh…hope you like it so far, but I just wanted to add a little something in. A wittle warning. There is gonna kinda be a wittle yaoi in the following scenes and the rest of this chapter is gonna be VERY long because darkshadowclone is only giving me 2 chapters to make this whole space story so…yeah….

-------------------------

"Wow, this sandwich taste better then I expected!!" Sakura commented, chewing her peanut butter sandwich.

"I packed them up right before we went on the ship!" said Shikamaru, "I was thinking the food here would taste like crap!"

"Full at last!!" Naruto said, patting his tummy.

"And to think it's still lunch time!" Neji said, "I thought that whole chase took the whole day!"

"Actually, it took only 5 minutes which is very shorter then most of the chases we have," Sasuke said, with a big mark on his face the size of a cola can.

"So…what should we do for the rest of the day?" Lee asked. Everyone stood quiet.

"Maybe…uhhh….truth or dare?" Ino suggested.

"No way, that's for sissy girly girls who have nothing else better to do in their life," Sakura said.

"I'm a sissy girly girl who has nothing else better to do in my life!" Hinata said, "Let's play!!"

Ino and Hinata took a seat and took an empty cola bottle from Shikamaru and spun it.

"You're lucky I don't care that much about Jerold," Shikamaru said.

ANYWAYS, Ino spun the bottle and the opening area landed on her.

"YAY!! That means I get to ask the question!!" Ino cheered, "Truth or DARE?"

"Truth, duh!" Hinata said.

"Do you sleep with Shino at some nights?"

"Yeah, in sleep overs that you weren't invited to while you were babysitting him. And Kiba was there, too!"

Ino evilly looked at Shino as he backed away.

"SHINO!! Young man!! As your baby sitter, I demand you to come play truth or dare with us or I'll tell your parents that you didn't listen to me!!" Ino demanded.

"Well…that's a true fact," Shino said. He was practically forced to play, so he took a seat and Hinata spun the bottle. And who would have guessed! It landed right on Shino.

"Uhh…truth or dare!" Hinata said.

"Truth," Shino simply said. I mean, who'd do dare?

"Hmmmm….Is it true that you have video tapes of Neji singing in the shower?" Hinata asked.

"Yeah! Pleanty!!" Shino said, holding a bunch of video tapes.

"OH!! Lets go humiliate him!!" Hinata said.

"ARGH!!! DAMN YOU MAIN HOUSE MEMBER!!!" Neji yelled.

"I won't play them unless you come play truth or dare with us Neji-kuuun," Hinata said, waving the video tapes.

"Ok, fine, but I'll only do it if Tenten comes," Neji said. Tenten agreed and they both took a seat.

Shino spun the bottle and it landed on Ino.

"Hrph…truth or dare?" Shino asked Ino.

"Ok…truth!!" Ino said.

"Uhh…. Is it true that you watch Mr. Fuzzy videos just to be like Sasuke?" Shino asked.

"uhhh……. Yes," Ino innocently said as she started crying.

"This is getting interesting!" Sakura said, "I wanna play now!"

"And if Sakura is playing, I'll play!!" Naruto said.

"And I've got nothing better to do, I'll play too!" Lee said, joining the group.

Ino spun the bottle and it landed in Naruto.

"Truth or dare?" Ino asked Naruto.

"TRUTH!!" Naruto proudly said.

"Is it true that you act perverted behind everyone's back?" Ino asked.

"No duh, everyone watches me do it on the anime series!" Naruto said, "Now It's my turn to spin the bottle!!"

Naruto spun the bottle and it landed on Sakura.

"Ok, I choose truth!" Sakura said before Naruto asked "Truth or dare".

"Is it true that you want to go out on a date with me?" Naruto asked.

"No" Sakura simply said and spun the bottle.

When it landed, it landed in an empty space, but it pointed to Sasuke.

"Sasuke-kuun!!!" Sakura squealed, "Truth or dare!"

"I'm not playing," Sasuke said, "You can't make me!!"

"C'mon, I'm asking you this!!" Sakura pleaded, "PLLEEEEAAASSEEE!!!"

"fine," Sasuke said, "Truth."

"Omigosh, everyone is doing truth, do dare Sasuke!!!" Naruto said.

"No way!!!" Sasuke twitched.

"PLLLLEEEAAASSSEEEE!!!!" Sakura asked. She made a little cute puppy face. It always works to the victim.

"ok, fine," Sasuke said, "Dare!"

"Hmmm….I dare you to sleep in one of those pods...WITH ME!! And do what Neji and Tenten did!!"

"WHAT?!? No way!!! You can't make me!!! What'll happen if I don't?"

"Shikamaru is gonna throw you off the ship and make you suffocate!!"

"Using pointy knives!!" Shikamaru added, "VERY pointy knives!!!"

Sasuke made that "You got to be kidding" look on his face and was forced to agree. Sakura cheered and threw confetti in the air which you aren't gonna ask where she got from. ANYWAYS, Sasuke spun the bottle and it landed on Naruto.

"Truth or dare?" Sasuke asked miserably.

"DARE!!" Naruto said, anxious to see what stunt he was gonna pull.

"Ok, I dare you to sleep in one of the pods…WITH A GUY!!!" Sasuke said, "And do the same thing that Tenten and Neji did in the pod!!"

"Why do you guys keep picking on us!?" Tenten asked Sasuke.

"Because it's interesting," Sasuke said, "But I'll cut you some slack, I'll let you choose who you want to go in the pod with!"

"Uhh…. COCA COLA!!!" Naruto said, pointing at Shikamaru.

"What!?" Shikamaru asked, spitting out the cola he was drinking, "But I'm not playing!!!"

"I didn't say that it had to be someone who was playing," Sasuke said. Shikamaru groaned and then agreed to do it.

Naruto spun the bottle and it landed on Sasuke.

"Truth or dare?" Naruto asked.

"dare," Sasuke said.

"Ok, Dare you to do the 2 dares I'm about to dare you!" Naruto stared, "I dare you to NOT sleep in the pod with Sakura…"

"Phew…" Sasuke said in relief.

"BUT you have to make out with a guy!" Naruto said cheerfully, "But I'll cut you some slack and let you choose which guy!"

Sasuke let out a grin and then jumped up to Naruto.

Naruto couldn't tell what was going on, but he felt something pressing on his lips. So now you know who Sasuke chose to kiss!!! Naruto!!!

Sasuke pulled away and then spun the bottle. Naruto was paralyzed.

"NOOOOO!!!" Sakura cried, "My chance to kiss Sasuke in a small area…. BROKEN!!!!"

When the bottle stopped, it landed on…Naruto!!

"Truth or dare?" Sasuke asked.

"Uhh…dare?" Naruto asked.

"I dare you to kis--,"

Sasuke was interrupted by a big BAM that shook the ship. Everyone looked out the window to see what was going on.

Meteors were attacking them! Again!! This time, the sound effects machine broke so there won't be any fake sound effects.

Everyone ran into the control room, thinking there was something that they could do.

BOOMM!!!!

"ACK!!! One of the engines were hit!!" Neji said.

"How do you know, Mr. Smartypants?" Ino asked Neji.

"It says right here on this screen, 'Engines hit'", Neji said.

"WE'RE GONNA DIE!!!" Sakura cried.

"ERN!! ERN!!!" Went the siren.

"What are we gonna do!?!?!?" Shikamaru asked.

"I'm looking for the land on earth button!!" Sasuke said.

"It's right here!!" Kiba said, pushing a red button.

"NOOOO!!! KIBA!!! DON'T!!!" everyone yelled.

"Self distruct in 5…4…" the computer started.

"ACKK!!! We're really gonna die!!!" Ino screamed.

BOOOMMMM!!!!!!!!!!

Oh! That boom came from the ship that was on the nearest planet. Anyways, back to where the ninja's are….

"3…2…" the computer continued.

"NOOO!!!!" Hinata cried as she grabbed Kiba and started kissing him.

"on-,"

the computer was interrupted, but the ship didn't blow up.

"What happened?" Shikamaru asked.

A man stepped in. He had wires in his hand and was in a space suit. Was it Kakashi? No, his hair was to flat. Was it Gai? Nope. Well…I'll just tell you.

"I am Adam!!" The man said. (remember? Adam from chapter 15?)

"Yay!! Adam!!!" Everyone cheered.

Thebluekirby (darkshadowclone's sister :): Well, my dad says I have to go to sleep, so I'll just tell you what happened quick. Adam is able to fix the engines and they all went back on earth and killed Kakashi just for the hell of it. Why was Adam on the ship? Unfortunately, he left his shovel on the ship and spent the past two days looking for it. So…yeah, end of chapter. Please come tomorrow for the next chapter!!!
