Yo! Next chappie yeah! I actually had quite a writers block on this one, but I tried really hard to think of an idea so that's why it's up now un. It's not that I don't know where the story's going, but it's just that this chapter is more of a serious than funny chapter, and that made me sad yeah. I always love writing funny stuff, but when I was writing this chapter the seriousness just poured out of me un. In a way I like it though, cause this chapter and the next one or so starts to set the whole relationship, jealousy, and romance parts un. So yeah, in a way I hate this chapter, and then again I love it yeah. Haha, well as long as you enjoy it I'll be happy un!

Shika-- Writers block sucks.

Plum-- Tell me about it un.

Lee-- Oh poor youthful Plum! Straining over a story alll weekend!

Plum-- Actually…no. I had a friend over yesterday yeah!

Tenten-- OO!! SLEEPOVER!!

Plum-- I know! It was so much fun un!

Ino-- Omg, did you guys paint your nails and do your make-up?!?

Plum-- Um, no un. We did some amazing NARUFANING!!

Ino-- Oh? What's that?

Plum-- Basically where you stay up till 2 in the morning looking up Naruto stuff like pictures, videos, stories, all that AMAZING stuff un!

Lee-- SOUNDS YOUTHFUL!!

Tenten-- Say that one more time and your going to get a fist full of youth into your mouth.

Lee-- RUNAWAY…YOUTHFULLY!! (Running away…youthfully)

Tenten-- That's it, ONE JELLY AND YOUTH SANDWICH COMING UP!! (Running after him…not youthfully)

Lee-- But I don't like jelly!!

Shikamaru-- Plum totally doesn't own Naruto.

Neji-- Totally?

Shikamaru-- Omg, I'm totally hanging around Ino too much…AH…omg…AH…it won't stop…omg, AH!

Enjoy, yeah!

With Sakura and Kiba

"Huff huff…where are we going?" Sakura asked as sweat started to form on her brow. Kiba and her just took off and started running, not exactly having a destination when everyone screamed and took off to search for Neji.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize we were still running." Kiba smirked and slowed to a stop along with Sakura.

"Wah? How can you not realize your running when--gah, never mind. So, where do we begin?" Sakura asked leaning against the wall.

"I don't know. You have any clue where Neji could be?" Kiba leaned against the wall next to Sakura.

"No, not really. To tell you the truth I don't know a rats ass about where he could be. He's as much a mystery to me as my own home is." Sakura sighed and shook her head.

"Yeah, your telling me." They sat there in silence thinking to themselves for a while. Kiba broke the silence, "Sakura, how the heck can you say your house isn't that big? It's a fricken MANSION! It's huge. H-U-G-E!! HUGE!" Kiba wailed, throwing his hands up and grabbing his hair.

"Huh? You really think it's that big?" Sakura honestly didn't think much about it, but when she did…she was quite amazed herself.

"Yes, I do think so. You have about six floors including the basement, the hallways are like never ending, there are rooms after rooms after rooms. You basically live in a castle. We're on the first floor, and we've been there all night. I thought you had a normal house until you opened a single door that led to a mansion." Kiba stated shoving his hands into his pockets.

"Yeah. Well it looks like a normal house from the outside because the trees hide most of it. Then it looks like a normal size house on the inside too, until you open the doors that lead to all the hallways. I'm not sure why, but my parents have this whole ordeal with privacy and stuff. So they basically try to hide that we have A LOT of money." Sakura replied leaning off the wall in the process. "well anyways, we should get to looking for Neji. This is a contest after all, and it's based on who finds him first, so lets get going."

"Uhm, right…okay." Kiba took position, ready to move on. "I guess we should just start searching room after room then?" Kiba asked glancing at Sakura.

"Yup, sounds fine to me."

"Alright then, here we go." Kiba went to the first door on his right and opened it.

With Ino and Shikamaru

"OH MY GOD!"

"Ino--"

"OH MY GOD!"

"Ino would you--"

"OH MY GOD!"

"Ino seriously sh--"

"OH MY GOD SHE LIVES IN A MANSION!"

"INO SHUT UP WOMAN!!" Shikamaru had snapped.

Ino jumped when he screamed…she certainly hadn't been expecting that.

"O-oh…s-sorry Shika." Ino was a little upset. She didn't think Shikamaru would ever yell at her like that.

"Ino--wait, did you just call me Shika?" Shikamaru felt bad, he thought she was going to cry…again. He hated it when she cried, that just meant he had to listen to her sobs and whimpers for hours.

"Uhm, yes?" Ino was a little surprised by his question, so surprised that she forgot to start crying to make Shikamaru feel bad.

"What's with the nickname?" He cocked his eyebrow at her waiting for an answer.

"I-I don't know…I just--it was nothing okay?" Ino crossed her arms and turned away from him. She really liked Shikamaru, but she didn't want to face rejection, so she thought it better to keep her feelings to herself.

Then she felt someone tug her arms loose and grab her hand. "W-what are you doing?" She asked Shikamaru as he pulled her down the hallway.

"If we don't get moving now we'll end up losing and then I'll have to do something embarrassing that I don't want to do." Shikamaru replied still holding Ino's hand as she walked along side him.

"Uhm, okay." Ino couldn't really tell if Shikamaru realized he was still holding her hand…but she didn't mind.

With Sai and Temari

"Temari, slow down!!" Sai screamed as he was having a death battle with the floor while Temari ran, dragging Sai along behind her.

"We've gotta find Neji!!" Temari replied, not slowing down at all.

She abruptly turned the corner down the hall, causing Sai to slam face first into the wall. She didn't stop though, and Sai continued to get beat up.

"Stoo--OW!--GAH!--DAMN--FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, STOP WOMAN!!"

Temari stopped, dropping Sai to the floor. "Oh my god, Sai…what happened to you?" She asked, concerned bending down to take a good look at the bruises all across his face.

"Your what happened to me!" Sai sat up rubbing his head.

"Oh, sorry!" Temari giggled and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"OW!" Sai threw his hand to the spot where Temari had kissed him, " I'm tender." He pouted his lips and rubbed his 'tender' wound.

"Oh, sorry…again." She giggled once more and stood up straight. " So, we should start on the mission now."

"Mission? Temari we're just looking for Neji."

"Yeah I know, and it's technically a mission."

"No Temari, it's a game."

"Whatever, let's goooo." Temari started to jog off down the hallway they were currently, so Sai followed.

They decided to start on the third floor…well Temari did. She blurted out something along the lines of "Three is my lucky number, and I'm FEELIN LUCKAY!" when they started the 'game'.

Temari walked down the hall opening one door, screaming "NEJI!" and once she got no answer she'd slam it shut and continue her little routine.

Sai simply shook his head at her, she was crazy, but he loved her.

With Kankuro and Sasuke

Step, step, step, step.

That's all that was heard, echoing down the hallway.

Step, step, step, step.

Sasuke and Kankuro just walked in silence, not saying a single word to each other. Sasuke was just too embarrassed and Kankuro was just too freaked out by him.

Step, step, step, step.

Sasuke coughed, and a cricket chirped.

Step, step, step…omg, there was one less step.

"Sasuke…" Kankuro stopped, " I can't take this anymore! I need to know what the hell has gotten into you! You've never shown signs of being gay before…why the hell NOW?!? Well…at least I don't think you've ever shown signs of being--"

"Okay, that's enough Kankuro. I am not gay, okay?" Sasuke cut in, knowing full well of the consequences. He'd have to tell him everything.

"What? But you kissed me and even said--" Kankuro was shocked, he didn't expect that.

"Kankuro, repeat it with me…Sasuke…issss…nooot…gaaaay." Sasuke rolled his eyes and leaned against the door leading to the basement.

"Oh shut up. I know what you said, but my question is why?" Kankuro crossed his arms, waiting for an explanation.

And that's exactly what he got. Sasuke told him EVERYTHING. From him reading Sakura's diary to his and Sai's discussion in the kitchen.

Kankuro was sitting on the floor now, along with Sasuke, taking in everything Sasuke had to say. And his simple reply was, "THAT JACKASS I'LL KILL EM!!" He was referring to Sai.

"Woah, why do you want to kill him? I'm the one being tortured here!" Sasuke knew Kankuro wasn't going to get back at Sai for revenge for him.

"I know that, but how do you think he tortured you? By making you kiss me and crap. I was basically a GUINEA PIG!!" Kankuro was now standing up and holding his hands to his head.

"Chill man, at least you know I'm not really gay."

"Yeah. So how are we gonna get back at him?" Kankuro settled down and obtained his normal composer again.

"I Can't do anything to get back at him, he'll tell Sakura I read her diary." Sasuke sighed, wishing he never read her damn diary. It's gotten him into so much trouble.

"Sure you can, as long as we work together. So, you in?" Kankuro held out a hand to Sasuke waiting for him to take it.

Sasuke did and nodded his head in approval.

"Alright then." Kankuro pulled Sasuke to his feet, "first things first, lets find Neji." Kankuro started to open the basement door and descend the stairs.

"Wait a minute, I thought we were going to get back at Sai." Sasuke followed Sai down the stairs.

"Finding Neji is the fist step, young grasshopper," Kankuro chuckled and ran down the rest of the stairs.

"Hmph, whatever." Sasuke didn't care what they did, as long as they got back at him.

With Tenten and Lee

"Neji?!?" Tenten yelled making her way around the fourth floor of Haruno Mansion.

"YOSH?!?"

"Neji?!?"

"YOSH?!?"

"Neji?!?"

"YO--"

"LEE!"

"Yes Tenten?"

"His. Name. Is. Neji. Not. Yosh." Tenten was about to strangle her partner. Luckily she has self control.

"I know that Tenten." Lee looked at her as if she were crazy.

"Then why do you keep saying…yosh?" His answer better be good or Tenten might…

"Because…it's youthful!"…too late.

With Hinata and Naruto

"Hinata, do you like ramen?" Naruto asked obnoxiously as Hinata and him walked up the stairs towards the fifth floor.

"Y-yes I do N-Naruto-kun."

"Oh! That's amazing Hinata!" Naruto hugged her out of enthusiasm. Causing Hinata's face to flush red, and then go pale.

"Hinata? Hinata? OH CRAP! HINATAAA NEJI WILL KILL ME WITH HIS OVERPROTECTIVE COUSIN GLARE!!" Naruto shook Hinata violently trying to wake her up before Neji's cousin senses started tingling.

No use, Hinata was out cold. "Crap, well I guess I might as well find a place to lay her down." Naruto picked her up and continued up the stairs to the fifth floor.

Back with Sakura and Kiba

They searched about 5 rooms thoroughly and still no Neji.

"Gah! This is ridiculous, where could he be?" Sakura sighed and sat down on the bed in one of the rooms they were currently in. Sakura had just finished searching the closet and Kiba was searching under the bed.

"I really don't think he'd be hiding from us, so maybe he got lost or something." Kiba stood up from the floor and sat next to Sakura on the bed.

"Ugh, this is so frustrating! I wouldn't even be searching for him right now if it wasn't for that stupid deal we all made." Sakura had a headache from all the constant running and yelling for Neji. "why would he leave in the first place?"

"I told you guys, he left to go fight the war against the Spartans with the mud kips." Kiba widened his eyes to show emphasis on his comment.

"Kiba, I'm being serious." Sakura rolled her eyes at his immaturity.

"Well I'm being completely serious, so nyah!" Kiba stuck his tongue out at her and turned away.

"Two can play at that game." Sakura stuck out her tongue and turned away as well.

It was silent for a few moments as they both awkwardly ignored each other. "So…um, are we not talking now?" Kiba slowly cocked his head in Sakura's direction to catch her staring at him.

"Ah! Uh, uh…I-I don't care…I mean, um…no?" Sakura knew she was busted, but Kiba was too darn cute! While they were 'ignoring' each other Sakura turned too just see if he was still facing away, when her gaze was stuck on him. Lucky her ended up getting caught.

Kiba smirked…evilly, "Hey Sakura, you checkin me out?"

Sakura flushed red and turned and smacked Kiba across the shoulder playfully, " Kiba!"

"Oh come on, you know you were." He was definitely taunting her now.

"I was not. You just happened to look over when I was looking over to you." Sakura crossed her arms and activated her pouty face.

"Oh really? It seemed as though your eyes were glued to me. I was afraid to move, I thought you might get a nosebleed if you saw my muscles flex." Kiba chuckled to himself.

"Kiba! You cocky little bastard!" She went to playfully whack him again when Kiba grabbed her wrists and threw her down on the bed.

"K-Kiba, what are you doing?" His face was inching towards hers by the seconds.

"Sakura, I like you." He dipped his head even lower and caught her into a demanding kiss.

Shock flooded through Sakura, she didn't know how to react at all. Her mind was a blur and her eye site wasn't any better. 'Omg, what's going on?" Sakura asked herself, truthfully confused. 'Kiba's kissing you girl!' Her inner 'yahooed' and jumped in excitement. 'Wha?''Stop dazing out and kiss him back!' Sakura was shoved back to reality only to still have Kiba's mouth pressed against hers.

She slowly snaked her arms around his neck and pressed into him even more.

Kiba took that as a 'go' sign and wrapped his arms around her waist, propping himself up with his elbows so he wouldn't collapse on her.

Sakura was clearly lost in the kiss, only following Kiba's movements when he would change position. They were thrusted into long and wanting kisses, oblivious to the world around them.

Kiba wasn't sure if she was doing this out of passion, or need. He adored her, and wished for her to be his; but he knew she still chased after Sasuke blindly. She only ever saw Sasuke, and it always ended up hurting her in the end, and Kiba didn't like it. He wanted her, and right now he had her. So even if only for this moment, he'd enjoy her.

Sakura felt flushed and hot, things were definitely heating up.

Kiba's hands had somehow drifted from under her back to pinning her wrists down above her head. Sakura's hands were now pressed against Kiba's toned chest moving every second or so.

They were lost, in the heat of the moment.

She ran violently down the long hallway breathing heavily. She had to find him, she was ganna find him…she was ganna kill him.

Her eyes were flaring and vanes were popping as she turned the corner down the next hallway.

Her lack of oxygen caused her to slow down to a jog. 'Oh well, it doesn't matter if I run. I'll still get him.' She smirked to her self and started to walk.

Her ears suddenly picked up on some movements coming from the room two doors down, 'Aha, I've got you now!' She thought to her self as she took off on a run again, grabbing the edge of the open doorway and swinging herself to a stop immediately. "HA! I FOUND--Omg, what the hell?!? Sakura and Kiba?!?"
