Ramenlover has fallen unconscious!
(Party)(Avenger): oh god
(Party)(Cherrylover): Something HAS to be wrong. The manual didn't say much about this, just that some characters are created with better control than others, but every character is created with some sort of gift.
Naruto's screen turned to a greyscale color. His character still had health, so he wasn't dead, but he couldn't move and his character simply lay floating in the water. Sakura's character came and pushed him to the surface, and about half a minute later his screen returned to normal, and his character stood up again; his chakra slowly came back.
(Party)(Avenger): Well, let's keep going. There has to be something for us in this forest.
The team went into the forest and began to train quickly, finding large groups of monsters and gaining levels.
It didn't seem like too long in the game world until they were all level 5. All 3 were dealing more damage with attacks, they had more health and chakra, and Naruto could actually get his character to summon up a clone or two. Before they knew it, though, it became hard to see in the forest they were in. Night fell in the game world.
(Party)(Ramenlover): that reminds me
(Party)(Ramenlover): what time is it?
(Party)(Avenger): 10:14
(Party)(Cherrygirl): Wow, I had no idea we were playing for that long. I think I'm going to go to bed.
(Party)(Ramenlover): summer is about staying up late, lol
(Party)(Avenger): hey, are you guys going to Shikamaru's party tomorrow?
(Party)(Cherrygirl): Yeah, definitely. Everyone's going to be there.
(Party)(Ramenlover): Shikamaru's having a party?
(Party)(Avenger): …

(Party)(Ramenlover): k

Shikamaru's Party
The next day at the party, Naruto and Sasuke approached eachother, attempting to speak above the music and other people talking. Shikamaru had a pretty big house, and for a guy who found it troublesome to even pick up a pencil, he threw an awesome party.
"841 out of 3 Chakra used." said Sasuke as he approached Naruto.
"…Can we not talk about that?" Naruto said. He turned his head around, seeing Sasuke and some of the other kids, but Sakura was nowhere in sight. Moments later the pink-haired girl appeared in front of them; the entire front of her body had a red stain on it, and her face was dripping wet.
"…Woah. What happened to you?" Naruto said, drinking some punch from a plastic cup.
"...Ino was holding my head in the punch bowl." she said. At that, Naruto's eyes popped wide open and he turned his head to one side, doing an exaggerated spit take. He then began scraping his tongue with his hands. Sasuke sighed.
"So…do you guys think anyone else here plays Ninja?" Sasuke said. He then remembered, and pulled out the two install disks from his pocket and handed them to Naruto.
"I doubt it." said Sakura. "The game's fun, but it's soon going to be the bane of all productivity." She gave Naruto her install disks too.
"What's going to be the bane of all productivity?" Ino appeared from behind them, latching onto Sakura.
"…Oh, nothing. Just some silly game." said Sasuke.
"What game?" Ino looked at him from around Sakura's back.
"Ninja. It's an MMORPG." said Naruto.
"…MMORPG?"
"That means when you play, you're playing with real people, all over the city, and the world." Naruto sighed.
"…That sounds like fun." Ino tilted her head to the side.
"Well, we were thinking of heading to the internet café after the party, if you wanted to join us…"
"Does 'we' include my Sasuke?" Ino asked. Sasuke shuddered and took a step backwards.
"…Sure does, and you'll be able to spend as much time with him as you want--" Naruto was interrupted; Sasuke had punched him in the gut. He doubled over in pain.
"…Idiot." Sasuke rolled his head in a circle, popping the bones in his neck.
xxXxxXxxXxxXxxXxx
After several more embarrassing accidents, the party ended and Naruto, Sakura, Ino, and Sasuke found themselves in the internet café. They were assigned four computers in a line, and they all logged into Ninja. Sakura helped Ino create a character, when Naruto turned around, then turned back to the others.
"Hey, is that Neji playing Ninja?" he whispered.
"Only one way to find out…" said Sasuke.
"HEY! NEJI!"
Neji turned around to face them.
"Yep, it's him."
Naruto leapt from his chair, ran to Neji's computer, and yelled back to the others.
"Hey! Neji is Destiny! He's the guy that saved us lastnight!"
"…You! You're Ramenlover? Why didn't I guess that?" Neji scratched his head, then continued playing.
"Neji, you don't seem like the kind of guy to waste away your days playing online games…" said Sasuke.
"I need something to pass the time." Neji replied.
"Wait, you're higher level than us! Me, Sakura, and Sasuke are level 5, and Ino is level 1. You're level 21 now. That means you can train us in a higher level area." said Naruto.
"…Okay, that sounds fun. I'll form a party. Character names, everyone?"
"Ramenlover."
"Avenger."
"Cherrygirl."
"Sweeteheart."
"Boy, that's lame."
"Shut up."
Naruto returned to his computer.
Destiny has invited you to join a party.
You have joined the party.
Avenger has joined the party.
Cherrygirl has joined the party.
Sweeteheart has joined the party.
(Party)(Destiny): Alright, follow me, guys.
You are now following Destiny.
(Party)(Destiny): Oh, Sasuke. I have something you might like. Open trade with me.
Seconds afterward, Neji lead them through the forests of the Land of Fire, easily defeating everything they saw on the way. Ino was level 3 by the time they reached destination.
(Party)(Cherrygirl): Is this where you train?
(Party)(Destiny): Yep. There's some good high level monsters here.
(Party)(Sweeteheart): Look! A swarm of butterflies! They're so cute!

(Party)(Cherrygirl): According to his character sheet, that guy's a level 82 missing-nin in the guild Akatsuki, and since he left his village he can attack us!
Akatsuki (Eetachee): 500k or die
(Party)(Destiny): I don't have that much money! He's way higher level than us…it isn't fair! Everyone…run…
(Party)(Destiny): NOW!
Eetachee's eyes glow a kaleidoscopic color.
You are frozen by Eetachee's Mangekyo Sharingan.
(Party)(Ramenlover): GUYS WAIT I CAN'T MOVE
Destiny's eyes glow bright with intensity.
Sure enough, Naruto's character was completely frozen. His screen was covered in a blue haze. In a flash of light, Neji's character dashed toward Eetachee.

Naruto's health was lower than half. He shuddered, realizing that his character was about to die, then he realized something.
His character was radiating an orange aura. He opened his stat window again.

Naruto looked up to realize that the others were crowding around him.
"…Dude…that explains why your Chakra Control sucked so hard! You've got Nine Tails!" said Sakura, holding a strategy guide for the game.
"Actually, I don't have any tails…I think." said Naruto.
"No...! You didn't get a Bloodline Limit like Sasuke or Neji, but you got something much better, and soon you'll be able to control it."
"So…that means I'm more powerful than you guys, right?"
"Sort of." said Neji, with a nod.
"…What just happened?" Ino asked.
"Basically, we went into the forest and got attacked by a high level player. He almost killed Naruto's character, but it turned out that Naruto's character had a secret power that turned the tables of the fight and allowed us all to survive a painful death." Sakura said.
"…Gedsundheit."
