Disclaimer: I'm not cool enough to own Naruto. -tear-
Author's Note: Happiness. I have to say that you guys made me really happy. I didn't think that I would reach over thirty reviews so I am very pleased. Hm, you guys deserve a treat...so I'm making an omake chapter (otherwise known as a filler) somewhere in the near future. Yippee!
This chapter is the continuation of the last one. I'm sorry to all of you who wanted to see what Tenten would do to Neji if he didn't 'move his ass'. It could be the omake I'm making though. Send in ideas for the omake, upcoming chapters in your reviews or just comment on this series. Reviews are very motivational... Well, enjoy!
Warning: A bad attempt at writing light romance (NejiTen) and OOCness (Sasuke, Neji, Shino...it's always the stoic people).
The naïve ninjas continued on their cooking frenzy, completely unaware of the catastrophe that was about to happen in this seemingly serene room. It all started with a little mishap with Naruto and Hinata's cookie dough.
Naruto and Hinata
"Um," Hinata read, "Add s-sugar, eggs and m-milk to the flour. Beat with an e-electric beater on m-medium."
"Okay," Naruto nodded enthusiastically.
Hinata measured and poured the sugar into the bowl. She also did the same for the milk. Then she whisked two eggs and added them to the mixture as well. She looked over at Naruto who was figuring out how to use the electric beater.
"Naruto-kun," Hinata offered, "Would you l-like some h-help?"
"No," Naruto replied cheerily, taking the bowl from Hinata, "You've done enough Hinata-chan. I'll mix it."
Unfortunately for the couple, Naruto had accidentally set the beater on 'overdrive'. The would-be dough splattered across Naruto's front and into Hinata's hair. But the assault doesn't stop there; pieces of the now dough-like substance flew across the room splattering on many, not-so-pleased people. Good thing Kurenai wasn't in the room at that time (who knows where she was).
"Uh-oh," Naruto said, looking at the pissed faces.
Neji, Tenten and Lee
Their group had actually proceeded the fastest, mostly because of Tenten's constant nagging and Lee's enthusiastic nature. Neji's genius was also a good factor of the trio. They've already gotten the dough rolled out and were proceeding to cut out shapes with the cookie-cutters. To be exact, Tenten was going to cut out the shapes since Lee was too busy with his 'good-guy' pose and Neji refused to be seen using a cookie-cutter.
Suddenly a gooey substance landed on Tenten's shirt and Neji's hair. It was like runny dough (which it was). They simultaneously turned towards the source of the mess. They immediately saw Naruto holding a madly whirling electric beater, sending chunks of dough flying everywhere.
Unfortunately for Neji, the moment he turned around, another chunk of dough hit him squarely in the face. Tenten couldn't hold back her laughter so she broke into a fit of giggles. The Hyuuga looked pissed.
Neji picked up some of the gunk that fell on to the ground and threw it at Tenten. It hit her in the face and Neji smirked triumphantly. Tenten also gathered up some gunk and hurled it at Neji but Neji dodged. It ended up hitting Kiba in the head instead.
Kiba, Chouji and Shino (Bachelor Club)
Since the others already chose their partners, the three boys became a group. They were surprised at Chouji's amazing culinary skills. Hell, they were already finished mixing their dough and it looked just like the picture on the recipe sheet.
Kiba grinned proudly at how well the group is progressing. He stuck out his tongue at the other groups and got hit in the head by a god of gunk, courtesy of Tenten (not for vengeance though). Kiba growled and looked around.
He randomly hurled a handful of the dough, he worked so hard to make, in a random direction and managed to hit Sasuke. Sasuke turned around, his sharingan alit.
Sakura and Sasuke
Sakura hummed happily as she mixed the batter with a wooden spoon. Sasuke was staring out the window in a bored fashion. He was just about to ask Sakura to cease her annoying humming when a sticky projectile hit him on the back. He angrily turned around, unaware at the fact that he had activated his bloodline.
"Who the hell threw that," he demanded loudly.
The rest of the room fell silent as all gazes travelled to Naruto who shook his head. Sasuke glared at the blond boy. Let the war begin.
The room was full of screaming and yelling. Batter and dough were sailing through the air, occasionally hitting the intended targets.
Hinata and Neji both had their byakugan activated. Sasuke also had his bloodline limit activated. Shino was using his bugs to devour whatever was sailing his way. Shikamaru was trying to hold the flying batter in the air using his Shadow Bind technique. Ino was trying to possess as many people as she can and made them throw the batter at whomever she desired. Tenten was deflecting the incoming batter and what-not with a kunai she seemed to have produced out of thin air. Sakura was hiding behind a counter. Lee was trying to save his group's precious dough. Kiba and Chouji were eating the flying gunk. Naruto was still trying to get the beater under control.
Most of their efforts were in vain. The bloodline limits and jutsu were pretty much useless. Eating it gave the consumers immense stomach pain. The only truly successful people were Tenten (managed to deflect all incoming gunk), Sakura (successfully hid), Shino (fast bugs), Lee (saved the dough with his ungodly speed) and Naruto (finally turned off the electric beater).
Finally Sakura couldn't take hiding behind a counter anymore and screamed, "YOU GUYS BETTER STOP RIGHT NOW!"
The ninjas grumbled and started to clean up the mess. The floor was covered in batter and was a bit slippery; that's how accidents happen…
Neji and Tenten were picking their way through the debris…uh…mess while Lee was saying something oddly like 'my precious'. Now, Tenten and Neji were very careful people but sometimes they also have their embarrassing moments. This was one of the times.
Kiba, who had just found out that Tenten, was the one who hit him in the first place, marched angrily over to the trio (Lee, Neji and Tenten). He accidentally bumped into Neji, causing the Hyuuga to fall on top of Tenten.
Now this was a very awkward situation for both Neji and Tenten. They had a right mind to torture Kiba in ways that cannot be mentioned in a T-rated fan fiction. Despite their outer anger, they found themselves slightly enjoying the close proximity (A/N: Neji and Tenten, you yaoi obsessed people, NOT Neji and Kiba). Of course their composure came back in the matter of seconds.
"Get off me," Tenten screeched, trying to push the Hyuuga boy off, "PERVERT!"
"Hn," Neji stared at her, pulling himself up.
"Um," Kiba fidgeted, "I'm sorry?"
"Not as sorry as you're going to be," Tenten said while pulling out a kunai.
"Kiba," Neji deadpanned, "Run or you might just get maimed."
Kiba opted for running away, screaming 'bloody murder'. Tenten and Neji soon took off after the fleeing dog-loving boy. The rest of the group watched the helpless boy flee for his life before turning to Naruto.
"Did I do something wrong?" asked a nervous Naruto.
"You're the whole reason this fiasco started," hissed Sakura.
"Now run," Sasuke told the blond boy as he activated the sharingan.
Naruto's fate was similar to Kiba's, only there were more people after the blond boy's ass. The only one left in the room were Hinata and Lee. Lee was happily baking cookies since his group's dough was still untouched. Hinata silently prayed that Naruto was not going to be too badly injured.
Author's Note: NejiTen! Yay! I don't know if that scene counted as NejiTen but I'm very proud of myself. I am very bad at writing romance (please forgive me). NejiTen is one of my fave pairings and I'm not sure that I've done it justice. Oh well, I hoped that those who requested NejiTen enjoyed it. I'm also unsure about Shikamaru and Ino's techniques. I haven't really researched much on their fighting styles. I'll have to say the same for Shino. Hm, if I made a mistake or mis-used their techniques, let me know so I can fix it. Anyways, what else can I say but...review. Those who reviewed made me very happy.
