Disclaimer: Still don't own Naruto; still don't own this idea, still want an Iruka-sensei plushie that is an actual thing instead of an imaginary one…really am tired of hugging air...
A/N: Well, it's been forever, but between NARUTO, and evil school, I just didn't have time. You all forgive me, right?
Chapter 2
Team seven was still chasing a drunk, and very naked, Rock Lee through the Konohagakure village. Neji was watching from the rooftops, hoping to find a place to trap Lee, but even his Byagakun wasn't helping him now. TenTen was off doing whatever it is she does, probably hoping to mistake Lee for a practice dummy, though nobody would believe that.
"Lee, stop, please!" shouted Sakura as the group rounded yet another corner, Lee still far a head. 'This town has too many corners,' thought Inner Sakura, now thoroughly bored with the whole affair. Finally the three newly appointed chunin cornered Lee in an alley. Seeing no other way out, Lee turned around to face team seven. Sakura let out a small squeak and turned around too, covering her eyes in the process. There are some things one just doesn't need to see.
"That's enough, Lee," growled Sasuke. His patience had long ago grown thin. "Be a good boy and come with us. Nobody in this town really wants to see you running around drunk, least of all naked, too." Lee blinked at Sasuke, then his eyes went wide(er). He began to move slowly towards Sasuke.
"SAKURA?" asked Lee, still quite out of it. Naruto stared, but Sasuke was starting to wish he had stayed at the bar, heck, stayed home!
"Lee, I'm not-"
"OH SAKURA, HOW I LOVE YOU SO! COME ON, SMOOTCHIE SMOOTCHIE!"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up Lee. I am NOT Sakura, and you don't want to-"
"AW, COME ON. DON'T BE SHY! I KNOW YOU WANT TO!"
"Um, uh, Lee, seriously now, I'm not Sakura, and…augh!" Lee had vanished for a second, only to reappear on top of the now stuttering Uchiha, setting several records without trying; first, make an Uchiha stutter, second, make an Uchiha blush (though I think Naruto gets real credit for this one). "Get off of me Lee!"
"Uh, guys? What's going on?" asked Sakura, starting to turn back around. Naruto grabbed her shoulders and held her there.
"Lee's still naked, Sakura! You'll only encourage this behavior!"
'Wow, when Lee gets drunk Naruto gets smart…just another reason to avoid this ever happening again…' 'Inner Sakura really doesn't know when to keep her trap shut sometimes,' thought normal Sakura, still facing the empty exit to the alley.
"ALRIGHTY THEN, SAKURA! PUCKER UP," bellowed Lee. This got Sakura's attention. 'If I'm here, then who's?...'
"Um, no, Lee, please, don't do this-" At this point, Sakura wouldn't have turned around for anything. One does not often like to see one's crush humiliated, and this was one of those times. Naruto, on the other hand, couldn't do anything more than stare, for it was a kinda weird spectacle. It did cross his shocked mind, later, that he probably could have prevented it, but it did make for god blackmail material.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Seconds later, Neji and TenTen appeared at the end of the alley.
"What's up? We heard…a…scream…" TenTen trailed off weakly, staring in disbelief at the sight before her. Sakura had her eyes screwed up, praying that what she thought had just happened, hadn't really. Naruto was frozen, a look of mingled disgust, amusement, and his usual semi-lost appearance planted ever-shiftily on his face. And Sasuke? Well, the poor Uchiha had curled up into the fetal position, eyes wide, and was talking to himself.
"No…get away…please, no…no…not again…" Neji was the first to recover, mostly because nothing seems to faze that guy.
"Naruto, you take Sasuke and get him back to normal, or as close as you can. Sakura, TenTen, you two come with me, we're going to keep looking for Lee. NO QUESTIONS!" This last part was directed mainly at Sakura, who didn't quite understand why she couldn't help her teammate. It wasn't like she was gonna kiss him or something, he'd probably knock her senseless, whatever it was Lee did. 'After all, it's not like Lee kissed Sasuke, right?'
With that, the two groups parted ways for now, the three remaining searchers going off to scourer the city once more. Naruto was left to try and get a very upset Sasuke back to the Uchiha mansion so he could stick him in the shower to chill. 'This is gonna be a long night,' though Naruto as he finally got Sasuke on his feet…
TBC...
Sorry the chapter's so short, but it's 3:11 in the morning and I have a math SOL tomorrow that I'm liable to sleep through. That, and there wasn't anything else in that part of the script. Next chapter's longer…but not by much, sorry n.n; Like I said before, I'm just ghost writing stuff for my friend who is best at writing script format. Love her to death either way, she totally kicks butt…no, I'm nor sucking up.
Update?…I honestly don't know when, though, God willing, it will be before June 19th, because after that, things get hectic. Thanks for reading!
(It's now 3:13 a.m.)
