Authors Note:
Leah: Meh…I really don't like this chapter, probably because I wrote like eighty percent of it and it's evil and meh…
Sorry this chapter took so long to get out. I, personally, had three different projects for school. I had to make and learn how to play a flute for physics (much easier said than done), make two dolls for Japanese class and memorize how to say eight characteristics for each of them (Eva and Claire did this too), and I had to do a big WW2 project on the Japanese Internment Camps in the U.S. (Claire and Eva also had history projects). So yeah, that's why it took forever and not to mention that we're lazy, working on other writing projects, and stuff like that.
In other news, Charli now has a hamster named Honey…and not surprisingly, it's just like Charli. Cute and secretly evil. It bit my finger today cause Charli put it down my shirt and I was trying to get it out -.-
I also have a stalker at school and he's a total pervert. He used to stalk Claire, then Eva, but now he stalks me because I'm too nice to say "go fuck yourself" like Eva and Claire do. But…he's nice and non-perverted to me so I don't really care.
Jason has decided that he's going to be Hitler for Halloween…
Eva: Yay! I wrote 2 of this chapter!! XD
I HAVE SO MUCH FUCKING HOMWORK I'M ABOUT TO STAB SOMETHING
-strangles Quy Anh- (she's my friend at school. She looks like a BROOOOOM!!)
I have this gigantic history project due tomorrow which I have barely done anything on, and I've had three weeks and and and DAMMMMMNNNN PROCRASTINATION!!
The teachers at school are trying to murder us, I'm sure. All three of us have been dying under the pressure. DX
I have realized (for the fifth time this year) that they enjoy coordinating it so all of the homework for our classes are due the exact same fucking day….
Btw, we're going to be at anime expo this year, (obviously the CA one). I'm going as Mello, and Claire's going as Matt, and Leah's going as Misa!! :D (although –twitch- Misa…..-glares-) I hate Misa. Oh well. It shall be fun. Maybe we'll wear a badge that says: "HI! I'M EVA!! XD" or something like that. Idk. It'd be cool to meet you guys if you go….
Oh, right. We all have deviantart accounts. I'm xanawhitedragon, leah's xXNairoXx, and Claire's Jemmi8Q. Yeah. Look us up if you feel like it.
BUT YOU MUST LOOK AT THIS!!oneoneone!11! It's really funny, and a perfect example of how America fucks up everything. Go to morbidoptimism (.) com and go to rants, then click on why Americans shouldn't cosplay. Leah's getting pissed at me cuz our author's note's so long. So see ya later.
Claire: As you can see, after all these weeks, Eva is still a moron. I do not regret punching her multiple times when we were coming back. I think I'm in shock at the moment from the ginormous amount of homework I have and that mean's I'm actually able to add to this insanely long author's note…I might be repeating something the idiot already said because I didn't bother to read her rambling, but I just need to make sure this is absolutely clear:
WE ARE NEVER MAKING A DEADLINE FOR OURSELVES AGAIN.
It didn't occur to me that when I thought of that idea that I would decide not to write for like…two months. Which is unhelpful.
Now I'm gonna go have a seizure and work on history stuff…and english…and math…and physics…
I need not explain my feelings of intense DOOM. D:
Chapter LKSAHDKFAHKFJHASDILHFKASJDHFAJSIEHFAIUSEHFAKLSEJFHA 8:
Sasuke's new tactic for getting information out of the three girls seemed to be boring them until they had nothing better to do than blab their secrets out. But this, much to the girls' delight, was having the opposite effect. Eva was more than happy to spend the entire span of her time with Suigetsu, so they could both be perverted and talk about swords together. Leah and Claire were somewhat pleased to have a break from Eva and her idiocy. They chose instead to dwell in the peaceful company of Juugo, who did not object to their presence. Sasuke was forced to brood in his own irritated silence while Karin continued her futile (and ridiculous) quest to win his heart.
At the moment Eva and Suigetsu were off somewhere, and Sasuke had gone off to…do something. Karin had followed him, leaving the remaining two hostages in the care of Juugo, trusting that they would not do anything to provoke him into a manic killing spree.
The three of them sat at the edge of a small pond. The grassy bank was dotted with multiple kinds of trees that the girls had never bothered to know the names of, not being hikers or something like that. The plant-life varied along the edge of the water, turning a deeper marshy green color and sprouting things such as cattails from their leafy bases. They stared into the depths of the pond, watching small fish and other marine life dart through the ripples.
Claire usually hated silence and found it unbearable or awkward, but today the music on her iPod was enough to keep her calm. She lay on the grass with her head on her crossed arms and idly pulled blades of grass out of the earth with her fingers. Leah sat with one knee bent and the other crossed under her, staring at a small patch of dirt the grass had missed that a colony of ants was slowly marching across. Juugo leaned against a tree a few feet away with his eyes closed serenely.
A frog croaked, unseen from behind a patch of tall reeds.
A robin chirped from its vantage point in a high nest.
A squirrel chattered and scampered off behind a bush.
"Frank."
Claire pulled out an earphone and looked at Leah. Juugo opened his eyes.
"What?" Claire asked.
"Frank," Leah repeated, "I name this ant," she pointed to an ant, "Frank."
Claire got up on her knees and inched over. "This one?"
"No, that one over there."
They watched the ant for a moment. Even Juugo had his gaze shifted in the direction of the ant patch.
"He does look like a Frank…" Claire said after a moment.
"He does."
"This one looks like a Renaldo to me."
"Indeed."
"…What about this one?"
"…I'm not sure."
"Juugo, what do you think?"
Juugo blinked. For a second the two girls thought he was going to ignore them since he remained stationary by his tree, but he slowly got to his feet, ambled over, and crouched next to them.
"That one." Leah pointed to the mystery ant; she wasn't sure if he could have seen the specific ants they were discussing from far away.
They waited patiently, watching his stony face as he surveyed the ant. "Keith," he said finally. Immediately, Claire shuddered and started banging her head on the ground, while Leah burst into laughter. Juugo looked puzzled. "What did I say?"
Claire continued banging her head on the ground and yelling muffled curses while Leah explained through giggles. "One day after school I was really bored and high on cupcakes and I started naming things like pencils and making them talk. I named one of them 'Keith' and I made it be really annoying."
"UUUHHHHHHH! I HATE KEITH!" Claire screeched, pulling at her hair in frustration. She shuddered again. "But better Keith than—"
"Georgina!" Leah exclaimed happily, "And this is Bobert."
"NOOOO!" Claire shuddered again and resumed her head banging.
Juugo blinked again. "You don't strike me as the type of person who could be annoying," he told Leah.
"She can! You wouldn't think so, but she CAN!" Claire hissed, glaring at her friend. Leah smiled sheepishly. Juugo said nothing and continued observing the ants.
"I think this one should be Elizabeth," Leah said thoughtfully, returning to the original task.
Juugo nodded in agreement. "The one next to it strikes me as an Angela."
Soon they were deep in their game of naming ants. Claire calmed down after a minute or so and rejoined them.

Charli and Konan walked slowly in the city, taking their time to make sure they didn't miss Eva, Leah, or Claire. Charli dragged Konan into a shop every so often, asking for a candy or some pastry. Although she wasn't really hungry or wanting a treat, she did it because she wanted to make sure that the villagers didn't get suspicious of them. So by acting like a snobby, spoiled, and stupid child, she knew that the villagers would assume that she and Konan were just tourists.
Konan was keeping up her mom act fairly well. Except for the fact that she wanted to rip Charli's head off…or at least give her a good smack. Charli, in general, was being very annoying. Even though Konan knew that it was part of the act, she was still getting a headache from hearing "Mom", or "Mommy", or "Mama", every twenty seconds.
Konan made a vow to never have children of her own. She'd probably feed them to Zetsu if she did.
"Mama?"
Konan flinched. "Yes?"
Charli blinked a few times. "…Never mind. I forgot." She went back to happily skipping in front of her in the streets, then circling back behind Konan, then going into another shop or to pet a dog.
Konan kept looking. So far, there had been no such luck. Then again, she wasn't really expecting the girls to be outside. They were probably being held in some prison cell, being interrogated on the Akatsuki by nameless Konoha guards.
"Mommy?" Charli said, running up to Konan.
"Yes sweetie?" Konan replied, almost failing to hide the effort she had to put into it.
Charli leaned close to her and whispered, "I need to tell you a secret."
Konan had to kneel so hers and Charli's faces were at the same level. To the villagers, the whole scene looked very cute. Konan had gotten compliments from the locals on how cute her "daughter" was, though she died a little inside when someone told her that Charli had inherited her nose.
Charli cupped her hand around her mouth and whispered more quietly than before, "We'll split up from here. I'll take the left side of town, you take the right. We'll meet up in front of the Hokage's tower in an hour and a half."
Konan nodded. "Okay, just be careful, and remember, only an hour and a half," she said louder, in her mommy voice. She reached into her pocket and handed Charli some money. "Take this just in case okay, and you know where to meet me."
"Thank you!" Charli squealed. She gave Konan and hug and a kiss on the cheek before running off.
Konan seriously considered giving that child the worst paper cut of her life, but for the sake of the mission she didn't.
"Your daughter is so cute, she has your pretty blue eyes," an elderly woman said.
Konan died a little more inside.
XxX
"But if you have the sheath so thin, wouldn't the blade cut through it?" Eva asked, confused at the design of a sword Suigetsu was showing her.
"Only if you're enough of a dumb-shit to sheath the blade upside down…," he muttered.
Eva winced, eyes flickering towards a now-dead sheath that she had done just that to. "Heh heh…I said sorry…."
"It was an heirloom."
"I'm sorry."
"A priceless heirloom."
Eva huffed, laying her head down onto the ground and slamming her forehead into the dirt multiple times. "I apologize. I've said sorry so many times I don't see how I can say it any more."
"An irreplaceable priceless heirloom."
"Stop adding adjectives."
Sasuke threw a glance over to them. Suigetsu rarely procrastinated with torture. He watched Eva apologize and Suigetsu guilt her for another ten minutes, and then he realized what they were doing. "Ah…that's amusing."
xXx
Charli skipped on down the street, turning her head to peer down an alleyway as she passed them. So far, no luck. She hadn't even heard anyone mention them, but then again, what should she expect from such a big town.
She'd have to find someone she knew for sure had met them and discreetly ask where they were. Tsunade was completely out of the picture. There was no way she could get any information from the Hokage without her becoming suspicious. Sakura was a possibility. Charli didn't know whether or not Sakura knew about them, but it was likely she did, but Sakura seemed smart enough to catch her. Sai was another likely candidate, but he'd tell someone if he thought something was a bit fishy. Kakashi, even though she thought he was the one who took them in the first place, was way too perceptive to fall for her charisma and innocence.
Charli looked off to her right, and that's when it clicked. She reached her hand into her bag and pulled out the money that Konan gave her. She counted it and smiled. It was just enough. Blowing the annoying wispy hairs out of her face, she walked into Ichiraku Ramen with a goal in mind.
Naruto, he'd be dumb enough to get tricked by her. She could say something like 'Have you seen my big sister anywhere? She's kinda short, brown hair, blue eyes, pretty…' or, 'Gosh, where are the Goths in this town?' or, 'Have you ever met someone with OCD? My sister's friend cleaned my sister's room once because it was so messy and she had OCD' Any of those should bring up something in Naruto's puny mind.
She got up on a stool with little difficulty, since the stool was almost as tall as her. How she missed wearing heels. She took a menu from a small bin against the wall and began reading down the laminated list.
"Good afternoon," the man behind the bar greeted with a friendly smile upon his face, "Can I get you anything to eat or are you still looking?"
Charli smiled cutely at him, "I'm still looking, thank you."
He nodded and went back to tending some pots of ramen. Charli skimmed over the menu a few more times, just stalling in hopes that Naruto would stop by. If he didn't, she didn't really care. At least she would get some good food in her before she had to go back to Konan in an hour.
After another three minutes, Charli finally put her menu down "I think I'm ready to order now."
The man turned around, wiping his hands on a towel hanging out of his pocket with a smile on his face, "Okay, what can I get you?"
"I'll have some miso ramen with just the corn, bean sprouts, and garlic on it. Sorry to sound picky, but I'm a vegetarian," she said as sweetly as she could. She wasn't really a vegetarian, but Claire was, so if Claire was here there was a chance that Mr. Ichiraku would remember her.
The man smiled. "Okay, it should be ready in a minute."
"Thank you," she said politely. Despite her evil tenancies, her cruel pranks, and her satanic mind, she was almost always polite to people she didn't know, especially those who gave her food.
The man looked over his shoulder as he cut up some garlic. "You know, there was a girl in here the other day who was a vegetarian, she ordered the same thing except with everything on it and just didn't eat the chicken," he chatted.
Bingo. Charli smiled, propping her elbows on top of the counter and placing her head atop her folded hands, she asked, "Really? Do you remember what she looked like? I have a friend who visited here a few days ago and she's a vegetarian."
Mr. Ichiraku turned around, leaving the food to cook on its own while he talked to the deceivingly cute girl. He looked up at the ceiling in thought. "Gosh, I can't really remember, but she was with Naruto, some of his friends, and two other girls. I think she had red hair, but I don't really know," he said, giving her an apologetic smile.
Charli smiled too. That was a lot more information that she had thought she would get out of a restaurant owner, but it was still faulty. A lot of people were vegetarians, a lot of people hung out with Naruto, and a lot of people had red hair. She still didn't have the solid evidence or any clues as to where they were, and this irked her. This wasn't coming easily to her as most things did, she'd need to wait a bit longer.
XxX
Deidara and Kisame sat with their backs to the fireplace, chatting quietly about random stuff. There wasn't much to talk about. Kisame had told him the story of the red socks. It was epic really, and for that reason it couldn't be repeated.
"Two more days 'till Christmas," Kisame pointed out dully.
"Hn," Deidara nodded, resting his chin on his knees and staring at the carpet in front of them.
The other Akatsuki members, minus Konan, contently watched the fire crackling in the big white fireplace. Stockings and decorations hung over the mantle, making the dark room look less ominous. No one had bothered to turn on any of the lights as it got dark outside, so the warm (yet creepy) glow of the fire was the only thing illuminating the room.
Pein stared at the fire thoughtfully. "There's a chance," he said carefully, "that we will have to eliminate the girls."
"Why's that, Leader-sama?" Tobi asked as he dug though the cupboards looking for marshmallows to make s'mores. "If it's because you think they know too much about us, that's not a reason to kill them," he said, opening another cupboard, "If you think about it, Leader-sama, they really don't know too much about us. Sure, they know our personalities somewhat and maybe some of our jutsus, but isn't that stuff that a lot of other people know? We never told them anything about this organizations goals and—oh marshmallows!" he quickly pulled out the long-searched-for bag and opened it.
Kakuzu shrugged. "He has a point. I honestly have no problem at all with killing them, but they do provide us a place to stay for free and that doesn't have a bunch of enemy ninja."
The others nodded in agreement.
Pein closed his eyes. "Still, there's a chance—" light streamed in through the front kitchen window as the headlights of Jason's car curved around the driveway.
Tobi put a marshmallow on a stick and squatted next to Kisame in front of the fire and slowly let the marshmallow cook. Deidara rolled his eyes at the childish behavior of his partner, but said nothing.
The door that led to the garage opened loudly, Jason's signature entrance into any room or house since he had to make sure that everyone knew that he was there. He quickly walked into the kitchen and unloaded an armful of groceries and turned the lights on.
But Jason was not alone.
"—So then I was like 'Oh my gosh, Zac Efron is so much cuter' and then she was like 'No way, Corbin Bleu is'…" a girl said in a voice that the Akatsuki could immediately recognize as the boy-crazy, Abercrappy and Bitch wearing, Paris Hilton wannabe, Jenny.
"I personally don't think either of them are that cute, but Johnny Depp—that's a different story," another female, older, voice said.
"I think you're both idiots," another woman's voice added, "Hey Jason, where's Durham? I need to let my mutt off her leash before she tears my arm off."
Jason looked over to Pein. "Piercing dude, you know where the fluffy fagball is?" He asked gruffly as he shoved milk and orange juice into the fridge.
"Outside."
"Okay Rachel, you can let her loose."
A second later, one of the biggest dogs that the Akatsuki had every seen by far dashed into the room like it had been possessed by some sort of evil spirit. It ignored Jason, ran past Pein, Deidara, Kisame, Tobi, Zetsu, Itachi, and Kakuzu and leaped into the air.
Hidan barely had time to turn around before he was knocked to the ground by the oversized dog. Hidan's face was attacked by a giant pink tongue and slobber while heavy gray paws pinned him by the shoulders.
"The hell! Animals keep fucking attacking me!" he yelled, trying to push the gigantic gray dog off of him.
The Akatsuki members laughed.
Hidan managed to sit up and he pushed the dog on the chest as it still licked his face. The dog backed up for a second, giving Hidan enough time to stand. However, she did not seem to understand the message Hidan was trying to get across and stood on her hind legs, slinging her front paws over Hidan's shoulders, and kept on kissing his face.
"Dammit dog! Get off!" Hidan said, moving his face away and taking steps back in order to get the dog off him and not hurt her, knowing that he wasn't allowed to attack or kill anything or anyone in La Jolla.
"Tracey MacElliot the Third! Get off that poor man right now you naughty girl!" a pretty blonde woman said as she rushed into the room. She yanked Tracey by her collar and made her sit at her ankle.
"Fucking mutt," Hidan muttered wiping his face on his sleeve, but deciding that he's still have to properly wash it to get the dog breath scent off.
The woman held Tracey's collar tightly while apologizing to Hidan. "I'm so sorry about this, she's really a good dog," she cleared her throat and held out her hand that wasn't restraining the oversized dog, "You must be Hidan, Jason's told me about you guys."
Hidan shook her hand awkwardly. "Yeah…hi."
"Oh my gosh, Jenny, you were totally right! All these guys are super hot," another girl, also with blonde hair said as she entered the room with Jenny.
"Yeah, I told you so, Nicole," Jenny said and went over help Jason with the groceries.
The oldest blonde girl finally let go of Tracey, letting the Irish wolfhound sniff around the house since Hidan no longer occupied its attention.
"Jason," Deidara said, "Who are these people?" he asked, carefully eyeing Jenny. She, surprisingly, paid them no attention and stacked some boxes of crackers in the cupboard.
"Oh, sorry I didn't introduce myself," the eldest girl said, "I'm Rachel MacElliot, Jason's fiancée."
The second blonde girl, who was staring at Zetsu with the same boy-crazy eyes that Jenny once possessed, snapped out of her trance and said, "I'm Nicole MacElliot."
Kisame's eyes widened. He didn't know whether or not anyone else had made the connection, but judging by the expressions and Itachi's sudden need to escape the room to go outside, they had. "Isn't that Jenny's last name?" he asked unsurely.
Jenny smiled at him. "Yep, they're my older sisters. Nicole's an intern at Jason's hospital and Rachel's a nurse."
Some of them seemed a bit uncomfortable being around a bunch or girls who were related to Jenny, especially Pein, Deidara, and clearly Itachi since he was pretending to be busy looking for Durham outside. But they introduced themselves anyway and didn't bother with fake names seeing as Jason had told Rachel about them.
Jason crumpled up the plastic grocery bags and tossed them in the trash. "Wait a second, where's Konan and Charli?"
"They're down at the police station to see if they can get any help with finding Leah, Eva, and Claire," Deidara lied.
Jenny dropped the bottle of Sobe she had been carrying to the fridge, the glass shattering as it hit the floor and its red-pink contents splashing around it like really bad blood effects.
"What?!" she squeaked, "What happened to them? Do you know if they're okay? Oh my gosh, how come no one told me about this?" Jenny demanded, running over to Deidara, grabbing his shoulders and looking him in the eyes.
"We talked to them two days ago and we haven't been able to get a hold of them since," Pein said.
"They sounded fine on the phone, other than the fact that they were…well, kidnapped," Kakuzu added.
Nicole seemed in muted shock, and Rachel had apparently heard what happened from Jason and was looking concerned.
Jenny threw her hands up in the air. "Guh! You guys are like, so useless!" she said, running her fingers through her hair, "Is there anything I can do at least? They're like, my friends and—"
"We're working on it. Don't worry, they'll be okay," Tobi said.
Jenny was about to speak again when a set of keys were tossed at her, which hit her in the arm but she still managed to catch.
"Okay, everyone get in the cars," Jason ordered, grabbing his keys off the counter, "I don't want to think about this mess right now, so we're all having dinner at Fuddruckers."
"Butt fuckers, what?" Hidan said, looking around in a manner that meant he had zoned out and had misheard what had just been said.
"Fuddruckers," Jason laughed.
"Does that mean us too?" Tobi asked as he shoved his s'more under his mask and it mysteriously disappeared.
Jason nodded and tossed another set of keys at Nicole, which she caught easily due to her softball catching experience.
"Yeah," Jason answered, "Tell Itachi to come inside and let Tracey out and hope she and Durham don't fight. Itachi and Kisame, you're coming with me and Rachel in the BMW. Zetsu, Tobi, and Pein, you go with Jenny in Big Red. Hidan, Deidara, and Kakuzu go with Nicole in the Jeep," he said, pointing at each of them as he said their names.
After dragging Itachi inside and letting Tracey outside to sniff Durham's ass, the other Akatsuki members got to their feet and follow the MacElliot girls down the hallway that lead to the garage while Jason ran ahead, yelling "FUDDRUCKERS!" repeatedly in a strange accent that was a cross between Irish and Arabic.
xXx
Out of the corner of her eye, Charli got a glance of a small boy with a giant blue scarf running towards her at full speed. She blinked and turned towards him. "Yes?"
She had expected him to stop coming towards her when he got close, but apparently he didn't intend to. She jumped off the stool she was sitting on, as an attempt to get out of his way, but her foot got caught in the bottom of her kimono and she started falling forward. The boy was already only about half a meter away from her and unable to stop in time. She fell onto him, but his momentum pushed them both to the ground, her on the bottom.
Charli was un-amused.
"Hi, I'm Konohamaru."
"Kami," she introduced in a monotone, "Get off of me."
He jumped up. "Heh heh, sorry. I didn't expect you to trip…"
She stood up and brushed herself off, fixing her hair and sitting back down on the stool. "Don't try to blame this on me. With your previous momentum and velocity, you should have realized how much force you would have transferred if you were to have hit something, which happened to be me. You should have stopped a whole two meters earlier…idiot."
He blinked at the physics. "Heh?"
"Nevermind."
He scratched his head and tried to change the topic. "So…are you going to the academy or are you a genin or something?"
"I haven't been professionally trained as a ninja," she answered, "I'm from a ways away. I just came for an interview with the Hokage."
He took the bar stool next to her. "Really? What for?"
She sighed, almost wishing she had gone with a more boring excuse for being there. "A school project, nothing that important."
"Do you have anyone special at your school?" he asked slyly.
She chuckled to herself. "No, no I don't."
"Would you like to?"
Charli was beginning to get the impression he had learned some of these lines from Naruto. "That depends who's wondering…."
He smirked. "No one in particular."
"If I don't know who's wondering, I can't say whether I'd like to or not," she replied and ate some more ramen.
Konohamaru banged his head onto the bar top.
She couldn't help but laugh. "You're not good at this, are you?"
He mumbled something into the table that sounded like 'gonna kill Naruto…'
Charli put her chopsticks in her half empty bowl. "So, did you come here just 'cause you got a dare from Naruto or are you actually here for food, 'cause I'm thinking the former," she assumed, leaning her head down on the bar to she was at eye level with him.
He blinked. "W-what makes you think it was a dare?" he asked, clearly guilty though.
Charli smiled. "I know these things, kids at my school do it all the time," she said, "So, where is this Naruto person?"
Konohamaru cocked his thumb over his shoulder, not bothering to lift his head off the table and still mumbling about how big of an idiot he must have seemed like.
She slurped up the rest of her ramen and paid the man behind the counter. She tapped Konohamaru on the shoulder. "Hey, if you want, we could mess with him," she grinned mischievously.
He lifted up his head, sharing her smile. "I'm listening."
Naruto was hiding mischievously behind a fence, waiting with a sadistic gleam in his eye for Konohamaru's return. The advice he had given him was payback for him having beaten Naruto in their sexy no jutsu contest.
He heard him coming.
"So, where do you want me to go?" Charli asked.
He grabbed her hand. "I'm just gonna show you around town."
"Ok." She fake giggled. "That sounds cool!"
Naruto fell to the ground in disbelief. "What. The. Hell." He turned the corner and faced his friend and his new girlfriend. "Why did it work for you and not me?"
Charli smirked, placing her other hand on her hip. "Because he's attractive." And you're not, was the un-said continuance.
He fumed.
Konohamaru snaked his arm around Charli's waist and began to walk with her, looking his shoulder to say, "I'd love to stay and chat, Naruto, but—"
Naruto smiled and interrupted him. "Well Konohamaru, I don't like you to be going on this date by yourself."
Konohamaru's eyes widened. "Don't tell me—"
"—you need someone mature to watch you two to make sure you don't get in trouble—"
"—that you're—"
"—so I think it would be in your best interest if I supervise your little 'date'."
Konohamaru's face fell. "…going to chaperone us…"
Naruto smile and gave his friend a pat on the back. "Of course I am, I think of you like a little brother, dattebayo."
Charli giggled. "Konohamaru, it's fine, I don't mind. Besides, I have to meet up with my mom in a half hour in front of the Hokage tower and she'd be very angry with me if she knew that I was alone with someone without an older person around."
Konohamaru sighed. "Fine, Naruto."
Despite the fact that the original plan was just to walk past Naruto, acting like Charli was indeed Konohamaru's girlfriend. But, as Charli predicted, Naruto would insist on intervening and she was fine with that. This was a great opportunity to get some information.
So far, things were going to plan.
