Sakura snuck along the hallway, not making a noise. The two had agreed to help her as long as she repayed them a favour in advance: steal a rare pokemon card from Temari. In order to get everyone to stop hitting on her, she was willing to do it.

The sand nins were still in Konaha, each having their seperate rooms in a guest building built specifically for visiting ninjas. Sakura had almost reached the hallway which their rooms branched off of. Suddenly, she heard Konkuro's voice. She stopped, listening further, but couldn't quite hear. She got closer, eventually reaching the door.

"...Of course I'll go out with you," he said in a pseudo-girl voice. Curious, Sakura risked being seen and looked in the door.

Kankuro was sitting in the middle of the room with Crow. He'd died his puppet's hair pink and put a red dress on it.

"I love you, Sakura!" he said to the puppet.

"I love you, Kankuro!" he replied to himself in that girly voice. Then Kankuro and his puppet proceeded to make out viciously. Sakura shuddered. That's definately the creepiest thing I've ever seen... Walking away as quickly- and quietly- as she could, she went to the next door.

Inside, she saw Gaara.

Nude.

He was checking himself out in a mirror and she happened to see what he was looking at: a tattoo that was now on his butt. It had his name and her name circled in a heart. He was humming something under his breath, when he all of a sudden broke out singing "what is love".

Sakura quickly backed away.

The faster I get rid of the effects of the potion, the better. The next door would undoubtably be Temari's.

Sakura tip toed towards the door and peeked around the corner. Temari was indeed inside, mending a hole in her fan. It seemed roughly the size of Shikamaru's head...

Sakura saw, on the table beside Temari, what she was looking for. The card. Seeing no other way than being extremely obvious, Sakura walked in.

"Hi Temari. Just thought I'd drop by since you guys are still here."

Temari shot her a venemous look. "What d'you want?

Sakura raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

"Shouldn't you be flirting with the guys that seem to be just falling over you today?"

"Oh... that. I'm trying to fix that, actually. You wouldn't believe how annoying it is with everyone flirting with you all the time."

"How are you going to do that? Run away?" Temari rolled her eyes. "How did it start, anyway?"

"Long story..." And then Sakura told her, saying that she needed the pokemon card in order to get help from the only two guys in Konahagakure who weren't hitting on her.

"Hmmm..." Temari considered this. "I really don't need it, you know. I just have it to spite them. But since it'll help stop this, sure." She handed Sakura the card. "I've really got no use for it."

"Thanks."

"Oh, and if you see Shikamaru, remind him that next time I'll hit him harder."
