Chapter 3: Find that Squirrel!
A/N: Meh.
"Catch this squirrel!" and a squirrel appeared in the middle of the room in an orb like thing.
"But what about making friends?" Ino asked.
"Ignore that, you should all be friends! Anyways, all you have to do is capture this squirrel.
"Heh, simple enough," Sasuke said.
"It's so cute!" Neji blurted out.
Everyone sweat dropped and stared at him.
"What? You must admit it! It's so kawaii!" he jumped up and down smiling.
"Yes Neji, it is cute, but this is your enemy. Actually everyone here is. I have taught this squirrel everything I know, and it is very intelligent with the IQ of about 200, almost as smart as Shikamaru!"
"What? That lazy bum is a genius?" Ino cried out eyes wide.
"You didn't know Ino?" Chouji said eating.
She just sighed and looked up, "So, when do we begin?" no reply…she looked around her to see that the environment changed and everyone was gone. The squirrel was on the move.
"Hurry up Ino pig," Sakura said peeping her head out of the trees.
Ino frowned and jumped to the trees.
The environment changed to a simple forest. The usual, trees, bugs and several animals.
Naruto smiled as he searched for the squirrel, "Hehehehe, this'll be easy, a squirrel, ha easy catch!"
Hinata walked around using her byakuugan, "So many squirrels in here…Oh wait, that one has a lot of chakra!"
She ran towards it and saw Neji, "Neji-niisaan?"
"Hinata?"
"Um…So you saw the squirrel too?"
"Of course I did!"
She looked at his face, there was no byakuugan, how did he find it?
"How?"
"I remember how it looks silly!" his voice grew childish, "Its way cuter than those other squirrels, and besides, it has a small forehead protector with a sign of wind."
She didn't notice it, she sighed and apologized, "Gomen…"
"It's ok," he turned, "Oh crap the squirrel its gone!"
She reached out her hand, but he ran for it. She only sighed…
Chouji didn't really care, he just sat singing a song,
"So crunchy, so tasty, oh lovely potato chip! So yummy in my tummy, oh lovely potato chip!"
Ino saw him and sighed, "Oi, he even made a song…"
Kiba was confident, he caught the scent of the squirrel, and so did Akamaru. For sure they'd find it.
"Oh, I hope we're awarded for this, but who cares, let's just go get that squirrel!" and he continued to run.
"Oh yeah! I think I spotted that squirrel!" Naruto said proudly. Sakura went by him muttering a simple, "Baka," but he ignored her. He grabbed the squirrel…POOF, it used the replication technique! He groaned and stomped his feet, "Pesky squirrel!"
Tenten walked through the forest, "That squirrel can't be so good," she remembered what she said, 'I taught that squirrel everything I know!' she smiled, "This is going to be fun!"
Temari walked through the woods looking around, "This has got to be a joke," she turned, "AIE!" it was a snake, she coughed hoping no one saw that.
"Heh, some women are so troublesome, they make so much noise," Shikamaru said out of the trees, he looked at her, "Sorry about that, I thought I found the squirrel, but, it was only a snake," he smiled at her and waved and hopped away.
She blushed at him, 'He's cute, but…' she looked at the snake, it looked funny for a snake, but she ignored it and walked away.
The snake seemed to sigh and it transformed…Into a squirrel…
It stopped and moved something on its head. Headphones to be exact.
"Squirrel, did anything exciting happen yet?"
It made some squeaking noises.
"Oh, these people suck eh? I'll be watching, and talk to them, maybe a little bit of a push should help!"
Ino sat under the tree and almost fell asleep when, "INO YOU PIG! WAKE UP! OR ELSE I'LL MAKE MY SISTER KICK YOU OUT!" a voice slightly different from the usual one.
"Who the hell are you?" she asked rubbing her eyes.
"No one you should know! Bye!"
Ino frowned, "Oh, when is this going to end! I thought Sasuke-kun would've caught it by now!"
"YOU INO!"
She jumped.
"YOU CAN'T JUST WAIT FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO FIND IT! GO LOOK NOW!"
"Alright alright…"
Neji had his serious face on, "Ok, no more jokes Neji, this is a seriously difficult squirrel! I must battle it one on one!"
Luckily the squirrel appeared, "Squeak!"
"Oh, bring it on squirrel!" he went to his fighting position.
He frowned, the squirrel looked really tough. But with his strength, power and flexibility, he would win for sure. He turned on his special ability and stared down the squirrel. Neji made the first move.
"Hiyaa!" and he slammed his hand down on it, but it jumped out of the way.
"Your fast for a squirrel," he smiled, "You are a very worthy opponent, I must warn you, you don't want to fight me serious, surrender now!"
It shook its head and did some seals.
"What the hell?" he stared at it, and in minutes, a huge fireball came out of its mouth.
"HOLY SHIT!" he tried to run, but he was burnt.
The squirrel smirked and ran away.
"I can't believe…."he fainted.
Kiba smelling cooked meat got excited, "Akamaru!" too late, the dog was after the smell, and so Kiba followed.
He smiled, but it turned into a frown as he saw Neji, "Wow, what happened to you man?"
"It's," he reached out his hand, "The squirrel…" the hand fell and it seemed that he fell asleep. Snoring was heard.
"Dude! Wake up!" Kiba shook him, but too much unfortunately.
"Ugh…" Neji's head was spinning, and he threw up.
"NO!" Kiba quickly stood up and ran for it.
"What? Wait!" Neji got up, threw up again and weakly ran away.
Sasuke was a bit injured, "That squirrel, it had sharingan! I can't believe this is possible…"
Shikamaru stood in the trees hidden in the shadows, "Ok, this is a simple, yet good plan. I'll just wait for one of those guys to drive the squirrel here!" and he sat.
Temari had met with the squirrel, "Oh, your going to get it!" she held her fan tight, but then a small sign came out of its hands, and she tried to read it, "You…su…sum…suq? What the hell?" she sat down and took the sign trying to read it, not know that the squirrel just ran off.
Naruto was getting pissed, he growled and when he saw the squirrel again, he ran like a maniac, "GET BACK HERE DAMMIT!"
He ran and ran, and it froze, but he accidentally ran into a tree.
"Hehehehehe got you now!" Shikamaru declared happily and grabbed the squirrel. The squirrel pouted and the environment turned back to normal.
Everyone was shocked to see that almost everyone was injured; Shino had a black eye, Ino had a scrape probably from tripping, Kiba and Akamaru had lumps on their head and still smelled like vomit, Sakura had a couple of scratches on her, Naruto had a huge lump on his forehead and scratches, Neji, now in Tenten's arms is partially burnt and Tenten herself, was perfectly fine, Sasuke had a small burn and cut, Kankurou seemed unharmed, Gaara had a couple of cracks, and a possibly dead squirrel in his mouth, Lee seemed a bit fine except for the cut across his face, Hinata was fine except for scratches, Chouji was totally harmless just a couple of crumbs, Temari was still reading the sign totally harmless, and with a couple of scratches, Shikamaru held the squirrel.
"CONGRATULATIONS TEAM! You caught it! Yay Shika-kun!"
"That was so troublesome…" Shikamaru said shaking his head.
"BUT YOU WON!"
"Whatever."
"Ok then…Let go of my buddy, he will come back to me, and you are dismissed!"
"Damn that woman!" he said walking away.
Back inside everyone's rooms, they spoke of what happened to them; tales of horror and tales of dark scary spiders were told.
"I can't believe Sasuke-kun didn't capture the squirrel!" Sakura sulked crossing her arms.
"So? Everyone deserves to win, especially Shikamaru!" Temari replied.
"Oh! I get it! Defending your boyfriend now eh?"
"Oh your going to get it!"
In Naruto and Sasuke's room Naruto was shocked to hear that the squirrel had sharingan.
"That must mean he's related to you!"
Sasuke shook his head, "Impossible, I bet that was the girl, she just transformed. It's impossible for the squirrel to have moves like that."
"HEY DON'T INSULT MY BUDDY!"
"Oh, sorry miss?"
"SilentWind! That's why I hate you Sasuke, to serious and boring for your own good."
"You said it!" Naruto said nodding. Sasuke hit him.
"Baka."
