Chapter 2 Roles, Scripts And…Wait Who's Playing a Girl?

After Naruto's little outburst, Kazuhiko just stood up a little straighter before grabbing the notes from the driver/scribe. "Ninjas" Everyone turned to look at him. "Alright….well we've got all the people we need, so if your name isn't called you'll be helping with props etc." Before he could finish he was cut off by Ino "Wait a second, you only asked like four people there names how are all the roles filled?"

Lifting his head up he said "Just because we didn't ask everyone doesn't mean we didn't get there names." Pointing to Kakashi he said "I took it upon myself to grab the names from him." Looking back at the list he continued "Okay in this carriage." He lazily pointed to the carriage he had come from. "Shall be Romeo played by Uchiha Sasuke, Juliet played by Uzumaki Naruto." A huff could be heard from Naruto but it was ignored. "And Paris played by myself."

As another carriage pulled up he pointed and said "In this carriage shall be Tybalt played by Aburame Shino, Mercutio played by Nara Shikamaru and Benvolio played by Lee Rock." And energetic whoop was heard from Lee as he realised he had been cast. Shikamaru's eye twitched in response. Shino just stood silent, his face mostly hidden.

When the next carriage pulled up everyone waited almost nervously. "Okay in this carriage is Capulet played by Umino Iruka, The nurse played by Haruno Sakura and Lady Capulet played by…" Kazuhiko paused before looking up and saying with a smirk "And Lady Capulet played by Hatake Kakashi." A clunk was heard as a little orange book fell to the ground.

Everyone was silent….however it was broken by Naruto "Ha, how do you like the idea of playing a girl role now?" Kakashi didn't answer he turned and looked at a wide eyed Iruka before turning to Naruto and saying "We will do it for the mission." Leaning down he picked up his orange porno book and to everyone's surprise placed it back into his vest pocket before heading over to Iruka.

Looking back at the notes Kazuhiko started the list of people in the next carriage. "In this carriage we have Montague played by Inuzuka Kiba." He was cut off by a yelled 'Yes I play a guy' from Kiba who started doing a little dance. When he noticed everyone was looking at him he stopped and sat down, hiding his blush.

Continuing slight annoyed by the interruption Kazuhiko said "In the carriage with mutt boy." A growl was heard from Kiba but it was ignored. "We have Lady Montague played by Hyuuga Hinata and The chorus or Narrator played by my uncle Nimoto Sadao."

"How much longer?" Came Naruto's annoyed voice. "Not much." Kazuhiko answered before saying "In this carriage we have Friar Lawrence played by Akamichi Choji, The understudy of Romeo played by…." Again he was cut off but this time by a female voice "Me." Everyone turned to the newly arrived carriage where out stepped a girl; she was almost identical to Kazuhiko, the only difference being her deep blue eyes and the purple tips on her spiked short black hair.

Smirking Kazuhiko said "This is my sister Aramaki Nyoko." She gave a small nod before saying "I hope my brother hasn't bored you to death, but seeing as your alive I'll take it you have just built up a high immunity." A few chuckles followed her statement. Continuing she said with a smirk "Well hurry up Otouto read out the rest."

"Don't call me that." Was the biting response, but doing as he was asked he continued "Nyoko playing Romeo's understudy, Akamichi Choji playing Friar Lawrence and Hyugga Neji playing Juliet's understudy shall be in that carriage." Neji's eyes widened slightly as he looked at Sasuke who was glaring at Kazuhiko. Looking at Naruto he said "If you even think of acting sick when we have to preform this I will kill you…painfully."

Naruto glared at Neji before saying "Hey I don't want to be the teme's girlfriend either, besides your more feminine then me with your long hair and what not." Neji's eyes twitched but before he could reply Kazuhiko said "And finally in the last carriage are Yamanaka Ino and Yukari Tenten who will both be playing various minor roles." Handing the notes back to the driver he said "Everyone else just go in one of the carriages that appear; you'll be working on props. The actors I listed if you would please now go to your carriages and practise your lines."

Naruto gave him a strange look before starting to say "But we don't have…" he was cut off though when numerous poofs were heard as scripts appeared in each person's laps. "Oh." Was all Naruto said before picking up the script and skimming the front page. After a few moments silence Kakashi said "Okay well we might as well get going." He then walked over to the carriage he was listed in and hopped in. Everyone soon followed his example, most with trepidation.

Sasuke entered the carriage and made himself comfortable. To his surprise it had a larger interior then one would think. He examined the beautiful design, the seats were made of leather dyed blue, making him regret wearing shorts, the walls were a deep shade of turquoise, there were curtains draped across a window that could be drawn back and opened and there were refreshments in a tub of ice.

"Why is it so nice in here?" Sasuke asked, mostly to himself not expecting an answer, he got one anyway. "It's so nice because it is for our three main roles, plus it's my carriage" Sasuke jumped uncharacteristically at Kazuhiko's voice. He was standing on the steps of the carriage, smiling a bit at Naruto who was still on the ground. Climbing inside he waited until Naruto was on the steps before helping him inside.

He held Naruto's hand longer then necessary, something that did not escape Sasuke's notice. Letting a small smile form on his face he sat down closely followed by a slightly uncomfortable Naruto. "We should probably practise our lines on the way as we will probably begin rehearsal when we arrive at the castle." Sasuke half-nodded not really paying attention,

"What?" Naruto squeaked wide eyed. Focusing back on the conversation, Sasuke replayed what Kazuhiko had said. After a few seconds he raised an eyebrow as he said "…Castle?" Kazuhiko smirked. "Yes castle, one of many." Turning to Naruto he said "Naruto-Kun was it?" Naruto nodded "Would you like to practise lines with me?" Naruto shrugged. "Not much else to do."

He gave a slightly mischievous smile before saying "Come sit with me then Naruto-Kun." Doing as asked Naruto stood up he missed the victorious smirk Kazuhiko sent Sasuke and the glare Sasuke gave in return. As he went to move the carriage started and he fell forward, however Kazuhiko had managed to stop him from following to far by placing one hand on his shoulder and the other on his…..butt?
