Mr. Ninja Universe

Sakura, Hinata, Ino, Tenten, and Temari were gathered around a circular table. Their task was to organize the Mr. Ninja Universe competition which came around once every ten years. A stack of documents with photos clipped to them were being passed around the girls. The first objective: pick the candidates.

"Well, we need to recommend some guys, so who do we pick?" Tenten questioned.

"Sasuke!" Sakura and Ino cried out in unison.

Temari asked, "How many are allowed?"

Tenten's eyes scanned over a sheet of paper on a clipboard. It says that the number is unlimited as long as the candidate is a graduated ninja and male."

"Well," Temari began, "I have to organize this for Suna. I can't believe that none of the other villages were interested."

Hinata pipped up, "They thought that this might be some sort of a trap."

"Hurry up and write Sasuke on the list!" Ino squealed.

Sakura grabbed a sheet of paper and handed it to Hinata, "Okay, you first Hinata. Pick one candidate."

Hinata took the piece of paper and picked the pen up off the table. A slightly red flush came over her cheeks as she neatly wrote a name onto the list. Then she handed the paper to her right. Ino claimed it.

"You picked Naruto!" She exclaimed in bewilderment.

Hinata simply tapped her fingers together timidly like she did whenever she was timid. She was blushing madly.

Ino saw this, "It's okay, girl. We love who we love."

The paper had been passed around, each girl adding one name to the list.

"Temari, it's your turn to pick. Who in Suna is a worthy candidate?"

An evil grin played across the girl's features as she took the pen and neatly scribbled a name onto the sheet. Everyone looked at it and turned a slightly different color

"You are going to get us killed." Tenten said blandly.

Temari retorted, "Well, your choice is certainly going to land someone in a body cast."

"We need more people guys," Hinata settled her friends.

Sakura nodded, "She's right."

The list grew. When no more candidates were added, Tenten looked over the list.

"Okay," she began, "Hinata picked Naruto and Iruka-sensei. I picked Neji and Lee. I kinda felt sorry for the guy. Anyways, Ino picked Sasuke, Shikamaru,and Shino. Sakura picked Kakashi-sensei and Kiba. And Temari picked Gaara."

The girls each looked over the list.

Ino spoke, "We might have some issues this year."


The Maiden of Light: Okay guys, this is where you come in. I need to take a break from this fic so I have more time to dedicate to my other two. So I have decided to set up a little story survey. The top three of the two categories will be going on. The categories are Coolest and Cutest. Send me reviews with a name and category in parenthesis so I can find it easily. ex: (Shino-Coolest) or (Gaara-cutest) After so much time, I'll tally them up and give you your top candidates. They are:

Neji, Rock Lee, Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi, Gaara, Shino, Iruka, Shikamaru, and Kiba.

Happy Voting!
