6. The Tadako Hayashi Show
A/N: Let's step aside from the main story, and move on to what I call a "Filler Chapter". This has nothing really to do with the story. It's basically Naoko's maid, Tadako, interviewing the characters of the story. Enjoy!
"Okay, move that camera a little farther, and Tadako, are you ready?" Director Masuda asked.
"Ready!" Tadako said, with a bright and shining smile on her face. "Guys, are you ready back there?"
Much of us, including me, were crowded in a small area backstage, but then we were ordered to step out into the stage and sit on the couches that were provided for us. I, of course, sat next to Sasuke, along with Aizu, Yuue, Yoshiko, and Keiko. Kakashi got his own purple cotton couch with his five kids with Yoshiko. Other people to be interviewed included my fellow friends Naruto, Sakura, Kiba and Akamaru, Tenten, and Temari. Yes, the couches were purple and cotton.
The stage seemed simple, with a black landscape, Tadako's fuzzy chair, and a large, plasma screen behind us. We calmly waited for the signal to go on air, and ten seconds later, the cameras around the stage had a small flashing red bulb on it, and the large audience applauded for Tadako. She came out in a simple outfit composed of blue capris, a flak jacket like all ninja wear (even though she really isn't a true shinobi that does missions), and her dark brown, straight hair pulled back into a high ponytail. She bowed, and greeted the audience and everyone that was watching.
"Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Tadako Hayashi Show! I'm Tadako Hayashi, not only host of this show, but I am also the caretaker of Miss Naoko Askikaga-Uchiha!" Tadako politely greeted. The audience cheered for her, and some even stood up to clap.
"Today's guests are very special to me. They're my friends, and Naoko and Sasuke's friends, as well. Please welcome: Naoko Askikaga-Uchiha, Sasuke Uchiha, Aizu Elric, Yuue, Keiko, Yoshiko and Kakashi Hatake, Kiba Inuzuka and Akamaru, Naruto Uzumaki, Sakura Haruno, Tenten, and Temari!!!"
The audience cheered and stood up even more when we all waved hi to them and the camera. Even screams were heard. Tadako then sat down on her fuzzy white chair, and first interviewed Sasuke and I.
"Let's start off with my two employers, Naoko and Sasuke. How are you guys?"
"I'm doing great!" I said. Sasuke nodded with me.
"Also, how's the one on the way?" Tadako then asked. The audience oohed and ahhed. "Oh, I didn't tell you all? It has been confirmed that Naoko is pregnant with Sasuke's child!"
The audience gasped and applauded me. I smiled, and the audience kept cheering for the recent news. "Anyway, Tadako, the baby's great...besides, it's only been a few days since I found out!"
"Well, I'm just checking. So, you two...tell the audience about your relationship."
Sasuke sighed in exasperation. "I met Naoko when I was 23. When she saw me, she thought I was one of those asshole ninja you find all around this world."
"You still are one asshole right now!" Naruto suddenly and randomly chimed in the interview. The audience oohed, yet again. Sasuke turned pink, and got up to the blonde ninja's face.
"You got a problem, dumbass?" Sasuke gruffly said to him, nose to nose with the guy.
"Bring it on, bi-" Naruto's quote was stopped when Tadako accidently pushed Sasuke, when she really just wanted to get up close with the two to break them apart. Instead, the same incident that happened to the two of them in the very beginning of their bitter but brotherly relationship...happened again. SMOOCH!
My jaw dropped to the lowest point, and held my hand over my mouth. I felt like laughing my ass off, but I knew Sasuke would probably beat me to a pulp for laughing so hard. The audience almost had the same expression on their faces. Some gasps were also heard around the seats of the audience. Temari and Tenten snickered, while Kiba and Akamaru looked at it in disgust. Sakura, secretly, had a nosebleed, and attempted to cover it with her dress. However, it wasn't really enough to hide it.
The two of them let go of each other's lips, and crazily choked, coughed, and tried hawking out their own (and maybe each other's) spit. Sasuke held his neck, and ran about the stage in circles. The audience laughed, while Naruto fell to the ground and rolled around, making the strangest bodily noises coming out of his mouth. After a moment of that very long beeping sound being heard by ninjas across the world (you know that annoying noise you hear and those colored bars across the screen), the stage and audience went back to normal, and Sasuke dusted off his body, and so did Naruto, and the two sat back down calmly.
"Now then," Tadako tittered, "Let's move on to the rest of Team N.A.K.Y.Y.! We have Aizu Elric, Keiko, Yuue, and Yoshiko Hatake!"
The audience applauded calmly, yet still some people in the background of the noise laughed about the previous incident. Anyhow, A.K.Y.Y. waved hi to everybody, and turned their attention to Tadako.
"So, how long have you known each other?" Tadako asked first.
"A looooong time," Aizu answered. "We've known each other since the days in the Ninja Academy."
"Wow," Tadako answered. "Aizu, why exactly are you staying here in Konoha? Shouldn't you be back with your husband, Ed, in another universe?"
"Well," Aizu began to say, "Ed really doesn't mind that I'm taking a long vacation from him. Besides, he needs to spend some time with his son, too. He understands."
"All right! Give it up for feminine power!" Tadako cheered. The audience applauded yet again, and someone even held a large sign with words written in black and red: I LOVE NAKYY!
"Thank you."
"Now, for Yuue and Keiko...I understand that you both play band instruments! This is a question from an online viewer of the show. The user is theabcd, and she wrote: Dear Yuue and Keiko, is it true that you play woodwind and brass instruments?" Tadako stated.
"That's true," Yuue answered. "I play the clarinet, and Keiko here plays the saxophone. The thing is, we haven't played it in so long, our playing will probably be rusty."
"I see...okay, for Mrs. Yoshiko Hatake!" Tadako rotated, giving a friendly glare at her. "How's the kids?"
"They're doing great," Yoshiko replied, "All five of 'em."
"Great, great!" Tadako said back.
The show continued with Tadako firing questions at all the ninjas, and all I had to really do was sit back and relax, for I had a kid on the way, and I didn't need to waste all my breath! Sasuke had his arm around me, and we just sat back and listened to all the interview questions Ms. Hayashi was giving everyone. I decided to mention notable quotes from the show, since I'm really lazy to restate what else happened during the show.
"What?! I wouldn't ever date one of my siblings! What the hell is wrong with you?!" Said Temari, when Tadako asked if she found Gaara or Kankuro attractive and if it made her feel strange inside.
"Woof!" ...I guess you know who that pers- I mean dog, is.
"I'M A NINJA, BITCH!" Naruto shouted. "SO AM I, YOU DIRTYASS BASTARD!" Tadako said back. This was bleeped out of the show, and I laughed about it.
About 30ish Minutes Later
"Thank you for joining the Tadako Hayashi Show, and have a fabulous day!" Tadako said, waving goodbye to the camera. The audience gave her a standing ovation, and all of us sitting down on couches stood up and clapped for her, too. The cameras then stopped rolling, and it was time for us to go backstage, and relax our butts off...again. I grabbed some sashimi and soy sauce from the table with all the food on it. The other guests on the show sat down at their makeup stand thing and relaxed, as well. I, for one, ate all the sashimi there was to eat, and Sasuke escorted me out, and we went back home, so I can go eat more and sleep more!
A/N: Okay...so I'm guessing this isn't the best chapter out of the whole story, because I am SO TIRED. I'll try to edit it later...but I don't feel like it. XD
