Bump, Set, Spike, Konoha Rendon!

Chapter Six

Friday, 8:15 AM

A certain blue eyed blonde, ran around frantic. He just needed two more people to join.

"Man, what do I have to do around here to get someone to join volleyball? I already did a dance, and they still didn't join!" Naruto muttered to himself in fustration. At that moment, he bumped into a clash of green.

"Very sorry Naruto! I didn't mean to get in your way!" Lee's voice boomed. Lee, a very loud and energetic second year at Konoha Chugakkou. He helped Naruto to his feet.

"So, why were you running around frantic like that? Exercising is good for the youth, but not inside this building of education."

"Bushy brows!...I mean, Lee-sempai! will you pleeeeese join the volleyball team?" Naruto begged. He even dropped down onto his knees and gave his best puppy dog eyes. Lee tapped his chin and gave it some thought.

"OKAY! IT'S DECIDED! For you Naruto, who was youthful enough to go down on his knees and beg! I WILL JOIN THE VOLLEYBALL TEAM!"

Naruto was picked up by Lee's strong embrace. "Sankyuu..." Naruto choked out.

"Lee! Let the poor freshman go!" Lee obliged and turned to the source of the voice. "Ah Neji! It's so like you to arrive bright and early on this fair school day!"

"What are you talking about? It's eight fifteen, everyone gets to school around the same time." Tenten popped up from behind Neji and giggled.

"Neji-sempai..." Neji turned his gaze at Naruto. Naruto jumped back a bit at the sight of those cold, pale eyes. He shuddered and shook it off.

"What is it?" Neji asked in slight annoyance. Putting a serious face on, Naruto asked, "Will you please join the volleyball team?" He recieved an icy glare from the older.

"Join the volleyball team you ask? No. Never. It's fate that chose for me that, I shall never join such a sport again." With that said he stormed off with TenTen and Lee trailing behind him. "But it's good exercise and I'm joining!" Lee tried convincing him.

"Keh," The lone blonde turned to find Sasuke, "Haven't you heard the stories about that Hyuuga?" The other shook his head no.

The bell rang.

"Nevermind, I'll tell you later." The pair headed towards class 6A.

Lunchtime

A worried, thick eyebrowed, teenager watched his lone brunette headed friend glare at his food angrily from the food line.

"Ne, Tenten," He tapped his other brunette headed friend, "Neji has been acting more colder than usual ever since Naruto-kouhai asked him to join volleyball." She sighed, " Don't you remember last year?" She recieved a quizzical look, "Right you were in China that time." They advanced up in line and grabbed a tray.

"Well, last year at the semi-finals or something, they versed Oto Chugakkou. And whenever Neji would spike. His spike what just so happen to hit one of the players everytime." Tenten took a western style salad and Lee took a pre-made insta-ramen cup. "Truth is, Neji was hitting them on purpose 'cause Oto would constantly bad mouth our volleyball team in and out of school." The two got their drinks and eating utensils.

"Neji finally had enough of it and decided to shut them up by well, spiking at them I guess." They paid for the meals and headed toward where Neji was seated. "Oto, realised he was spiking them on purpose so they got their school gang to jump him after the game. They ended up breaking his arm." They sat on either side of Neji. "Hey Neji," TenTen smiled reasuringly, "Is the katsu curry any good?"

"Hn.." Tenten rolled her eyes. Lee just gave his friend a sympathetic look. The story Tenten had told him recently had just sunk in.

3:30 PM

Naruto gave his shoelaces one last tug. He sighed and left the locker room to enter the gym. He picked up a ball nearby and fiddled with it nervously. Let's see, He thought, 1, 2,...3, 4 and me, 5. He then muttered a curse to himself. He just needed on more player. Just one more stinkin player! He thought bitterly.

Kiba was currently trying to teach Lee how to bump, Sasuke and Idate were setting each other up and spiking. Naruto stood by himself by the locker room thinking about the consequences of not being able to form a team.

1) He had to were a tutu...a pink one too.

2)Sasuke will kill him

3)Idate will make the rest of his freshman year hell for making him quit track

4)Lee will be terribly disapointed...that didn't really bother him

5)Kiba will pester him more than usual and maybe more violently

6)...He had to wear a pink tutu

7)He will be made fun of by the whole student body for trying and failing in something impossible

At that moment, the gym's main doors burst open. Everyone stopped at what they were doing to stare at the person who just entered.

Yeh, little cliff hanger there, all I need to do now is think of a new chapter. Which means I get to bang my head against the wall more. Oh! By the way...Off Topic: Did you know? Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour? Just though I might let you know...until next chapt r/r!
