I missed last week's update, so this time I'm going to do double! That means 5-6 chapters will be updated during today and tomorrow!

Chapter Twelve: Hinata, asleep

"W-we still haven't found N-n-naruto-kun…" said Hinata.

"Déjà vu," said Sasuke.

Hinata just stared at Sasuke.

"You know what would really be funny? If Sasuke swallowed another fly!" said Kiba.

"I think we found our new scout!" said Ino enthusiastically, without replying to Kiba.

"I agree," said Shino.

"That was just mean…" said Kiba sadly.

"It's okay, Kiba. It happens," said Hinata, patting Kiba on the back.

"Don't encourage him, Hinata," said Shino.

"Guess what?" asked Neji.

"What?" Sasuke didn't feel like guessing.

"Tenten's going to say something," said Neji.

"We've been standing here for a long time," said Tenten.

"Shut up, banana freak," said Neji.

"For your information, I haven't mentioned bananas for a while!" said Tenten.

"Shut up, banana freak," said Neji.

"Wait, before you guys start that again…" interrupted Ino.

Sasuke knew exactly what she was going to say and interrupted Ino who interrupted Neji and Tenten's fight.

"Let's send out Kiba just because." said Sasuke.

"Hey, that was what I was going to say!" said Ino, surprised.

"I know." said Sasuke.

"Why do I have to go?" whined Kiba.

"B-because…you annoyed Shino-kun and Ino…and Sasuke doesn't l-like you." said Hinata.

"But to be fair, Sasuke doesn't hate you either," said Shino.

"Thanks guys, I feel a lot better…" said Kiba sarcastically.

"Hurry up and go! I like the part where scouts disappear the best!" said Ino excitedly.

"I'm going…" Kiba picked up Akamaru, who barked sadly. They disappeared and found themselves on top of the Hokage statues with a basket of dog biscuits and sandwiches.

"That was exciting," said Tenten.

"Shut up, banana freak," said Neji.

Tenten sighed. "Are you going to say that every time I say something?"

"Wow, Tenten." said Sasuke.

"You just figured that out?" asked Neji, shocked.

"Kinda sorta," said Tenten.

"I-I think you had too much potassium, Tenten." said Hinata.

"That's what I've been trying to tell her this whole time!" said Neji.

"Why bananas? Why couldn't it be tomatoes?" asked Sasuke.

Everyone stared at him.

"What?" he asked.

"Tomatoes?" asked Shino.

"Who likes tomatoes? That much?" asked Ino.

"Sasuke, you're weird." said Shino.

"Even Hinata-sama hates tomatoes!" said Neji.

"That's not much of an argument…Hinata's a picky eater," said Tenten.

"Shut up, banana freak." said Hinata and Neji together.

"Isn't it sweet? They're bonding!" said Ino.

"Not really," said Shino.

"Yeah, you're right…" said Ino.
