Act IV Scene II

"What is it, Ino? What do you want now?" Kiba asked the maid cautiously.

"Can you do something for me?" Ino requested. She brandished a mask and a hooded robe. "Pretend you're Sir Kakashi, the dungeons master. Go talk to Lee."

"Absolutely not!" Kiba refused.

"Oh come on! Don't be such a baby! You'll look so awesome in it!" Ino forced the robe over Kiba's head. She stepped back to examine him. "Wonderful! I'll go get Chouji while you make yourself a little more Kakashi-like, okay?" Ino threw the mask at Kiba and went off to find Chouji. Akamaru laughed at Kiba.

"Oh, shut up. I know I look like a total loser," Kiba examined himself in the mirror. Akamaru barked in agreement.

"We're back!" Ino sang.

"Wow! You look just like Kakashi!" Chouji declared, slapping the mask onto Kiba. "A little too short, maybe, but Lee will never be able to tell the difference in the dark."

"All set? Okey-dokey! Let's go!" Ino and Chouji dragged Kiba down to the basement. They pushed him in front of the door to the room Lee was confined. There was a small slot on the door where Kiba could talk to Lee.

"Yo, Lee! Sir Kakashi's here to see you!" Chouji called.

"Kakashi-sensei? Is that really you?" Lee asked weakly, peeking out of the slot.

"Sure?" Kiba pitched his voice like Kakashi's. He and Akamaru exchanged strange looks.

"Oh, finally, someone kind is here!" Lee cried.

"Yeah…" Kiba and Akamaru exchanged funny looks again. "Anyways, Lee, is there anything you want?"

"Yes, Kakashi-sensei, sir! Go to Lady Sakura, Kakashi-sensei!" Lee cried.

"Why?" asked Kiba.

"Do you ever think of anything else?" Chouji demanded.

"No. I want to write her a letter! I want to prove I am not insane! It's just so cold and clammy and horrible down here! I want to get out of here!" Lee cried.

"Okay, okay," Kiba took pity on him. "Chouji, get him a light, a pen and a scroll. I'll deliver your letter."

"No way!" Chouji and Ino both showed their objections.

"Look, this prank was fun, but now it's gone too gar," Kiba took them aside. "We might get in trouble for it. Just let him write a letter, and we'll put this all behind us. Do you want to get kicked out, Chouji? Do you want to get fired, Ino?"

"I see your point," Ino agreed. She handed a key, candle, pen and scroll to Kiba. "You stay with him and let him write. We're leaving."

"But Ino…" Chouji whined.

"Good-bye!" Ino grabbed Chouji's cheek and dragged him back upstairs. Kiba opened Lee's door, delivered the materials, and shut it again. There was silence for a few minutes, only punctuated by sounds of a pen scribbling.

"Lee? Do you want me to sing you a song?" asked Kiba.

"I didn't know you could sing, Kakashi-sensei," replied Lee.

"Of course I can! I am the best!" Kiba proclaimed. "Listen!"

"I'm done!" announced Lee, slipping the scroll through the crack.

"Okay! I'll give it to the Lady! Have a good day!" Kiba grinned. Singing always put him in a good mood.He continued the song on his way out.
