Shrouded in absolute darkness, the ninja crept, along the houses. Using his ninja skills to the fullest he became a mere shadow, leaping from roofs, creeping along the ground, hiding in places you would have sworn he couldn't have fit in when he thought he heard someone. At last, he reached his goal. It would all be worth it now. His mission would be finished and he would be safe. He inched open the door...Only to find someone else had gotten there first.

"Look Gai sensei, you need to come get us! Really! The counselor is crazy, you can't make us stay here! No, I will not try to do my youthful best to have fun, this place is pure evil! She made me dress up as a fairy and, hey, stop laughing! I mean it! Look, just listen to me for a minute and stop babbling about the power of youth okay? Good, no wait what? Don't go! You can't leave me here, don't you dare hang up! No, it's not a wonderful youthful goodbye, don't hang up!" Neji sighed. "He hung up on me."

"What are you doing here?" asked Sasuke. Neji didn't turn around.

"Probably the same thing you're doing here. Trying to call home and get someone to come save us."

"So we've both got the same idea then?" asked Sasuke. "Good. You guard the door, I'll try calling Kakashi."

"Allright. Hurry." said Neji, activating his byakugan so that he could see through the door as he guarded. Sasuke picked up the phone and dialed.

"Kakashi? Is that you! Oh good, listen, you need to come and, huh? What do you mean you were just talking to Gai? He said what? No, we are not "enjoying our youthful high spirits" here! Would any one of us, well except Lee, ever say that? It's horrible! I need you to come get us, right now! Now we're not having a good time! I've already established that! No, not even...what?! I, no! We have not been "having fun" with any of the girls. Well, okay, maybe a little. But not that! Anyway, it doesn't matter, you have to, no! No I don't want you to leave us here, I don't need any more shots at the girls! Really I'm fine! No, come get us now! I'm more likely to get action in Konoha! Hello? Hello? Damn it!" He turned to Neji. "He hung up on me." Neji nodded.

"Gai just went on about enjoying the explosive power of youth." He turned. "There's two people coming."

"Who?" asked Sasuke.

"Looks like Shikamaru and Kabuto." Sasuke sighed.

"Well, we can't hold grudges in a situation like this. Let them in." The two looked surprised when the door opened in front of them.

"Calling for help?" asked Neji. The two nodded. "Come on in." Shikamaru picked up the phone first.

"Asuma sensei? Yes, I know we all disappeared a few days ago. Yes, it's Kakshi's fault. No, we're not on a mission. We're trapped in a troublesome camp with a nutty counselor. You have to come save us. No really, it's horrible. Aww come on don't leave me here, it's too troublesome!" He sighed. "Troublesome sensei, told me I could stand to stay here for one little week."

"Here, give me the phone." said Kabuto taking out of his hands and dialing.

"Who are you going to call?" asked Sasuke scornfully, but he was already talking.

"Hello, Orochimaru?"

"What?!" Not him!" snapped Sasuke.

"Shut up!" snapped Kabuto, ignoring Sasuke's "He put a frigging curse mark on me! What makes you think he's going to help?"

"Good, you're there. Yes, I know you haven't seen me for a few days, it's because I've been stuck here. It's some sort of weird camp type place, and there's a crazy woman ordering us around. Yes, there's other people here too. Ummm, most of the people from the chuunin exams I think, maybe a few others. Yes, there are girls, one of them keeps trying to hug me, what does that have to do with anything? What? What do you mean I should get get out more? I do not need to meet more girls!What do you mean you want me to stay here? No! Come on! Please? At least just come kill the scary counselor? No, don't go! Your cupcakes are done? Well Gee, why don't you just invite some more people over to help you then? You and the Akatsuki can have a slumber party! No, that's not a great idea, it was sarcasm! Don't hang up! No! Gah!" Kabuto turned to them. "Do not say a word." he muttered. And then, the yelling started.

"Sasuke!"

"Neji!"

"Kabuto!"

"Shikamaru!"

"Where are you?"

"We need more fanning and stuff!"

" If you don't get back here the counselor will hunt you down and rip out your spleens!" The boys glanced at each other.

"Not her!" groaned Neji.

"Great, now we have to go back. How troublesome." said Shikamaru. Sasuke sighed, and made a hand seal.

"Super cool ninja vanish and reappear in another place jutsu!" The four ninjas appeared in the room where the girls were in a puff of (super cool) smoke.

"There you are!" giggled Sakura happily. "We thought you'd run off!" The boys exchanged nervous glances.

"Can I at least put my shirt back on?" asked Sasuke.

"Nope!" said Sakura cheerfully.

"Can I?" Neji asked hopefully. Tenten just laughed.

"No." said Mika before Kabuto could say anything.

"That's what you get for plotting to make us wear those costumes." said Ino.

"ugh, this is so troublesome. How come Naruto gets to keep his shirt?" asked Shikamaru, pointing to where Naruto and Hinata were cuddling.

"Because they look so cute together we didn't want to interrupt them." said Sakura.

Naruto was sitting next to Hinata, so enraptured by her that he hadn't even thought of leaving. Shino, Gaara, and Choji were fanning the girls, while Kiba and Kankuro brought them drinks. And Lee...where was Lee?

"Where's Lee?" asked Sasuke, hoping to distract Sakura from their odd disappearance. Sakura made a face.

"He got into the pixie sticks. Now he won't come down from the ceiling." They looked up to see lee hanging from the ceiling by the bandages around his arms.

"I'm a youthful spider!" he singsonged, swinging back and forth. "Spidey senses tingling!"

"Spider? Where? Oh my precious bugs, where have you gone?" said Shino looking around wildly.

"Uhhmmm, this is getting a little weird for me." said Tenten. "I'm gonna go get some snacks or something, and be out of the room in case Lee drops on our heads." Neji stared at the door as she walked out, then quietly activated his byakugan.

"Neji, what are you doing?" asked Sakura.

"Nothing. Just standing here and looking purely coincidentally in the direction Tenten went." he said innocently.

"Neji, are you looking at Tenten with your Byakugan?"

"No, what could possibly give you that idea! I'm not using my byagkugan! Nope, no byakugan using here!"

"Neji, it's really easy to tell when you're using it you know."

"Umm, no it's not."

"Neji..."

"I'm not using my byakugan to look through Tenten's clothes! Really!" he protested turning to Sakura.

"Now, I never said you were, hey, what? Looking through people's clothes, omg you're looking at me!" she yelled. "Help! Pervert! Sasuke kun! Neji's looking at me with his byakugan!" Sakura squealed. Sasuke came over.

"Hey, are you using your byakugan to look at Sakura?" he demanded angrily.

"No! Of course not! I would never do that!" he protested turning to Sasuke. "In fact I'm not even, oh god it burns! It burns! I will never be able to get that out of my head! Agh! It burns my eyes with the light of a thousand suns!" he ran off, clawing at his eyes, and slammed into a wall. Tenten came back bearing snacks, and passing out the chips to Sakura, Ino,Hinata, and Mika.

"Why is Neji trying to claw his eyes out?" she asked. "Did Lee demonstrate his, uh, special move again? I remember last time that happened we had to spray the entire place with Lysol, and I couldn't sleep for a week. And then Neji passed out every time we went back there. Though that might have been that bleach was still a little strong..." Sakura leaned over and whispered something in her ear. She turned red. "Bad Neji! What have I told you about using your byakugan like that! As a punishment, you don't get the sour cream and onion chips I brought for you."

"But I love those? Please?" asked Neji making puppy dog eyes.

"Well, maybe, but only because you're so cute." said Tenten.

"Food? I want some! Are there any barbecue chips?" asked Choji drooling.

"Oh fine, here." said Tenten tossing him a pack.

"Hey, don't stop fanning!"snapped Sakura.

"I want chips!" thought Sasuke to himself. He edged over to Sakura. He turned, causing the light to glint off his forehead protector and the wind to blow through his hair in a way that made fangirls squeal for miles around. "Sakura." he said leaning over her. "Can I have some chips?" She stared at him, eyes sparkling with a wide grin on her face. "Umm, Sakura? Sakura?" He snapped his fingers in front of her. "Hello? Oh damn it, not again. Let's see. Well, I could try to snap her out of this trance. Or, I could just steal her chips. Yeah, I think I'm gonna go with that." He plucked the chips out of her motionless grasp, only to have them plucked from his hands. "Noo! Why my beloved chips, why? Shall we never be united?"

"No." snapped Ino. "Now, what do you think you were doing? No, don't answer that." she said as he opened his mouth. "What did you do to Sakura?"

"Umm, I think I may have accidentally put her into a fangirl trance with my sexiness?" Ino slapped her forehead.

"Ugh. Fine, just get her out of it."

"I don't know how."

"WHAT?!"

"But I'll try anyway please stop being scary!" Sasuke leaned over. "Sakura. Um, wake up, or I'll, uh, kiss Ino!"

"You'll what?" snapped Shikamaru, suddenly appearing next to him menacingly.

"Umm, nothing!" said Sasuke.

"Ugh, troublesome ninja, made me get up." muttered Shikamaru.

"Sakura? Come on, wake up please? The sky is falling. We're being attacked by evil missing nins. I'm being attacked by rabid weasels. The pain. The agony. Please wake up before I am devoured." he said.

"Wake up Sakura, your snoring is as loud as your forehead is giant!" snapped Ino.

"Hey! I don't snore! And stop insulting my forehead pig Ino!"

"Forehead girl!"

"Pig Ino!"

"Forehead!"

"Pig!"

"Hah, I guess it's true, all you have to do to get a girl to wake up is to tell her she snores." said Sasuke. Both girls turned on him

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!?"

"Nothing, nothing!" Luckily for Sasuke, just as he was about to be savaged. The counselor burst in.

"Hi everyone? Having fun? Well that's great! But you've got to come out now, we're going to do another super fun activity!" she said.

Doom! A cliffhanger! Bwahaha! And you shall not learn of the mysterious activity unless you review!
