Chapter 22: Ending 4 – The Twist ending
All five girls had received the same strange invitation.
Come to Training Ground 5 at 9 pm on Saturday for the final selection.
-Temari
Perhaps it was curiosity or perhaps something deeper but none of them could resist the invitation.
……………………………………
That Saturday at 9pm Anko, Sakura, Hinata, Ino, and Tenten were all assembled at training ground number five.
Five minutes later Gaara arrived flanked by Temari and Kankurou. He looked at each one of the girls then turned to Temari.
"Why am I here, Temari?" Gaara asked calmly.
"Well to pick which one of these girls you want to continue to go out with."
"WHAT?" shouted the Konohan girls in unison. Gaara thought for a minute and then spoke.
"I choose Hinata." Said Gaara. Hinata nervously stepped forward.
"Gaara. I don't think I can date you." Said Hinata meekly
"Why not?" asked Gaara
"Well. You See. I'm actually a man." Said Hinata. Everyone just stared at her the only one who seemed unfazed was Gaara.
"Alright." Said Gaara, "If I can't date Hinata then how about Ino?"
"Well Gaara, the truth is that I'm dead. You have the ability to see ghosts! No one else sees me."
Gaara looked around. Everyone was indeed starring at him. So he decided to move on.
"Sakura? How about you?" Gaara asked hopefully.
"Ha Ha! I'm not actually Sakura." Said Sakura pulling of her wig to reveal a balding man, "I killed Sakura and disguised myself as her. I'm actually international criminal mastermind Keyser Soze!"
"That's kind of farfetched. Tenten, how about you?" said Gaara. Tenten shrugged.
"I don't exist. You have multiple personalities."
"I know. That's not a twist."
"I meant besides the demon. If you look back throughout our meeting you'll see that no one actually notices me." Said Tenten
"I thought that was because you have no personality."
"I do too!"
"No you don't. Now moving on, Anko are you available?" Anko looked around nervously before declaring
"Gaara. I am your Father!" Gaara raised an eyebrow (Or at least he tried)
"No your not."
"Alright I'm not," Anko confessed, "But everyone else had such a cool twist and I want one too! Rosebud's a sled!"
"Not working" said Temari
"Soylent Green is People!" tried Anko
"Just stop." Said Kankurou
"I'm actually working for the president of the USA who is your twin brother!"
"Now that's just silly." Said Gaara as he Temari and Kankurou left Anko in the clearing. Anko just sighed. She had really wanted a twist ending.
THAT'S WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED
BUT HOW ABOUT THIS?
