Like I promised I have your Kiba story for you!

"Do you know how cool it is that Kiba's birthday fell on 777 this year?" Naruto examined with some kind of pride in his accomplishment.

"Baka!" Sakura shouted at him. "Anyone with half a brain could figure that out." With this said, Naruto went into a gloomy state with his normal thoughts of why Sakura didn't like him.

"D…dd…do...you think we should have a p...pa...party for him?" Hinata stuttered as usual from her anxiety of being near Naruto. She looked at Naruto but then quickly looked away with a sudden blush.

"Yea!" Naruto shouted wildly. Sakura glared at him from his sudden outburst. Naruto shied away, afraid of being hit.

"W…what do you think sh...Shino?" She fiddled with her fingers trying to keep herself from blushing. The group's attention turned to the quiet Shino who had been occupying his time by talking to his bugs.

He glanced up at them for a brief moment before looking back at the bug that was crawling on his finger. "I'm sure he'll enjoy it." With that said, the Genin decided it was alright.

"We can't let Kiba know about this." Sakura whispered to the group.

"Know about what?" Kiba emerged into the clearing with Akamaru on his head. Everyone exchanged glances obviously not knowing what to say. Finally Shikamaru stepped forward with a dull look.

"It's nothing important, so don't bother with it." After he said that he disappeared. Kiba looked back at the group with suspicion in his eye. Everyone quickly nodded their heads before dispersing into the forest. They all knew what they had to get and do to prepare for the party.

"I don't like the feeling of this Akamaru." He looked around the forest. Akamaru gave a little bark in return. Deciding to ignore the feeling in the pit of his stomach, he went on the day like he planned.

As soon as they had left, Sakura had run to Sasuke's place to inform him on what was going on. She was coldly turned away by him though which made her feel unwanted. Naruto had found her soon afterward sitting in the park. His usual hyper personality got on her nerves and changed her mood quickly. After beating him up, she decided to do her job.

Meanwhile, Hinata had been trying to do her job and was also trying to find Naruto. She wanted to help him with job, but she was unsuccessful in finding him.

Shino had quickly done his job and was now with Kiba. He kept him occupied with training and light conversation. There was a signal in the distance that he caught and knew it was set.

"Kiba," he started looking behind him. "It's time to go."

"What?" Kiba looked at him with weary eyes. Shino took no notice to his comrade's question. He took off knowing that Kiba would follow anyway.

Kiba had followed Shino for a long distance. They were going deeper into the forest. Both he and Akamaru were on their guard. He knew he should have followed his instincts. There was defiantly something wrong.

Shino stopped on a branch and waited for Kiba. When Kiba stopped he looked at him. He could tell he was on his guard.

"Where are we going?" He demanded. Shino kept silent. Kiba growled with annoyance. "Shino!"
He yelled. Shino looked dully at him from behind his glasses waiting for one thing to happen. Kiba just stared at Shino and then noticed something different. His vision was becoming fuzzy. He blinked a few times, but it was still there. He felt light headed. "Shino….what did you do…." Kiba's eyes closed as he lost conscience.

Shino grabbed him before he fell. Akamaru started to bark at Shino. He growled and was ready to bit him. Shikamaru dropped down behind the dog and grabbed him before he could do anything. Knowing well enough what Kiba's dog could do, he held the dog far from his body in a firm grip.

The two took off with Kiba on Shino's back. As they arrived, Shino placed him against a tree. Shikamaru let go of the struggling dog, but wasn't quick enough to draw his hands away. He yelped in pain as the dog bit him.

"Damn dog." He growled. He then sighed, "What a drag. Why'd you bring me into this again?"

"Shino!" Naruto yelled. "Why'd you knock him out? How is this going to work if he's knocked out?"

"N…na…Naruto," Hinata started. "I'm s….su…sure Shino had a good re…reason for d…doing so." She gulped as she shied away from Naruto's eyes.

They heard a grumble from Kiba and they all looked at him. He started regaining his conscience. Everyone gathered around him, waiting for him to open his eyes. It was too bad for Kiba because when he did...

"Surprise! Happy birthday Kiba!" They shouted. Kiba cringed from their loud voices. That knock out poison Shino put in him had left him with a headache.

"I hate you guys." He grumbled as he stood up. "But thanks any way." He looked up at them and forced a smile out of himself.

So I hope you all enjoyed this little story. Sorry that I didn't post this yesturday, but at least you got a story!
