-Second chapter of story. Getting bored already…

Ken shifted uncomfortably. Smiling, Hyde started to talk. "I know how much you love anime and stuff like that…" Ken shrugged. "The girl I saw at the stadium looked exactly like the person on your wallpaper."

Suddenly Ken stood up. "Orochimaru!" he yelled. "Very ugly wallpaper indeed…" Hyde said under his breath. Ranting about Orochimaru, Ken didn't notice Hyde's opinion. "How can this be? I don't get it! What can we do?" Ken paced nervously around the room. Hyde thought that this would take a while so he sat down on a chair and began reading an article in a magazine. Of course he wasn't really reading, but instead he was peering over the magazine to keep an eye on Ken. This went on for minutes until a surprising movement from Ken caused Hyde to put down the magazine and stare intently. Ken pulled out his cell phone and called someone he had on speed dial.

"Hello?"

"Yes?"

"Kishimoto-san?"

"Ah…yeah who are you?"

"Who doesn't matter, we need you at the hospital right away."

"…Ok."

He hung up and looked grimly at Hyde. "Kishimoto?" Hyde questioned. Before he could reply, the door opened and a rather flustered-looking man walked in. Hyde didn't have time to go "What the hell…" since the man started talking with Ken. Hyde tried to listen, but the conversation was to difficult to understand. Words like "ninjutsu" confused the heck out of him. But since Ken and the other man seemed to know what they were talking about, he stayed quiet. After what seemed like hours, the two men finally stopped talking and turned to Hyde. Ken spoke, "Hyde, this is Masashi Kishimoto." Hyde nodded his head in acknowledgement event though he thought, "What the hell…" Ken continued, "Please tell Kishimoto-san what happened with Tetsu and Yukihiro." Hyde hesitated. He gave Ken an "I-thought-you-told-him-already" look. Despite this, Hyde explained what happened, but didn't take his eyes off Ken.

"Oh, I see what happened!" Kishimoto said after a few minutes of elaborating in his mind.

Hyde stared while Ken was overjoyed. "You do?" They asked in unison.

"One of my fans was so obsessive that he built a machine that could bring my characters into this world…"

Hyde scratched his head and Ken whistled. "Should I reserve a place for you in the loony-bin?" asked Hyde.

"No, seriously." He said. It started to rain and Kishimoto glanced at his watch. "Holy cow remember that person that I was talking about?"

"Yea you told us five seconds ago." Hyde said.

Kishimoto decided to ignore this remark. "I have to meet him today, maybe you should come along."

They shrugged. What have they got to lose?

As the left the room, Ken looked back. "Hold on, I'll be right back." He said. Hyde gave him a look. He did not like Kishimoto.

Racing back into the room, he picked up a bottle of water on the table. He tipped it into the vase on an end table between the two hospital beds and left.
