Ginta, 14, main character, cute boy. Nanashi, slightly older boy (16 or so). In a fight, Nanashi gets swallowed by a giant whale, which then goes under water. Ginta starts screaming "Nanashi!" and he watches the whale swimming under the ice, then suddenly the whale forces back through the ice, coming back up, and you see Nanashi cutting his way out of the whale's mouth, and he jumps out and lands in front of Ginta, smiling. "You called for me?"
Yeah... The whole series has scenes that scream yaoi...

Chapter 16 Chibi Fights
Sasuke ignored the cries from his fangirls, even when Sakura's voice joined in. He really didn't want to talk to any of them. He didn't know what he wanted to do, but he didn't want to talk. He heard Sakura yelling at someone, though he refused to listen as he buried his head under his pillow, his foot knocking one of the scrolls off of the bed. He had brought a few of them to his room in order to read them, and had found out that yes, his elder brother had known. And the main reason he was angry... was because he didn't want Sasuke to be killed. He killed the entire clan... because he had cared about his little brother's life more than any of them. And Sasuke had then devoted his life, to killing the one who had tried to protect him... He forced his head deeper under the pillow, wondering if he could suffocate himself.
Suddenly there was a foot pressed against his back, and he was, for the first time in a long time, kicked out of bed. Deadly glare in place, he turned to see who had dared to do such a thing to him, only to freeze at the sight of angry blue eyes.
"I don't know what the hell's going on, but the fact that you didn't even notice me until I kicked your sorry ass outta bed really pisses me off!" Sasuke's glare turned beyond deadly, as he lunged at the boy opposite him, rage coursing through his veins. Naruto reacted instantly, slipping into a defensive stance and blocking the first hit and catching the leg Sasuke had tried to kick him with, spinning and slamming the raven-haired teen into the wall. Instantly the Uchiha was up, and racing back towards Naruto, only to have his fist blocked again, except this time he had already thrown his other fist, landing squarly into Naruto's stomach. Suddenly Naruto grabbed both of his rival's hands and pulled them forward and down as he slammed his forehead against Sasuke's dazing him slightly, before spinning and delivering a strong kick that caused the Sharingan user to fly back against another wall.
This went on for minutes, hours, the boys didn't know. Sasuke released all of his pent-up frustration and anger on Naruto, who returned each blow with one of his own.
Finally, panting, bleeding, and bruised, the two stopped. The young Uchiha could barely stand, but was forcing himself to, not about to let the dobe see him as weak. Yet even as he watched, the wounds he inflicted upon Naruto were fading, healing. Stupid fox, he thought in annoyance, too tired to do anything else. Suddenly the blond straightened and grinned, crossing his arms over his chest.
"Got it out of your system now?" The paler boy froze, simply watching the other as he looked around the room, releasing a low whistle. They had left Sasuke's room a long time ago, moving out into the hall, into other rooms, out into the courtyard, and back into the house. They stood in a larger room that honestly, Sasuke couldn't remember what it was used for. But now it, like many other places in his home, would be in serious need of repair. The blond turned to him with a laugh. "Sorry about all that! I'll help you fix it! Maybe I can get Gaara to help, too..."
"You... what?" He couldn't believe his ears. Naruto had just apologized! To him! And offered to help with the repairs? "Okay, who are you, and what have you done with the Usuratonkachi?" The other crossed his arms and pouted, his cheeks puffing out as he glared in annoyance. It was an action that was so utterly... Naruto. "Okay, maybe you are the dobe, after all."
"Don't call me that, teme!" The boy frowned still. "I was being nice 'cause I kinda helped destroy your house! I just wanted you to snap out of it!" Now Sasuke was left staring in surprise. "You couldn't even tell I was there 'til I kicked you! You actually attacked me without even thinking! And you say I'm the one who attacks mindlessly!" He finally gave his fox grin. "But you seem to be okay, now! Feel better?" The brunet looked away and sat, not about to smile at the idea of the idiot of the group being concerned about him.
Knowing the movement for what it was, Naruto plopped down next to his friend, his legs splayed out as he lay back, his arms outstretched.
"So what the hell pissed you off so bad in the first place, teme?" Blue eyes watched as a pair of shoulders seem to sag slightly.
"I found out something about my family that I didn't want to know." A golden eyebrow raised, and he waited to hear what came after. As they relaxed, Sasuke explained about his father's writings, as well as the scrolls he found concerning the Sharingan and his brother's findings. Naruto was a good friend. He knew Sasuke didn't want pity, or to hearsomething like 'oh, how horrible for you!'that would just be stating the obvious and rubbing it in. So instead, he sat up and smiled at his friend.
"Aren't ya glad you didn't kill Itachi, now? Maybe the reason he wanted you to... was so that you'd become strong, and so that... history wouldn't repeat itself..." Black eyes focused on the boy next to him. It was rare that the blond said something so intelligent, but usually when he did, it was always wise to listen. "I mean, think about it. If you didn't kill him, then he might go off and have kids some day. And then when they find out about the Sharingan, they'll try to develop it, and if they learn about the whole secret, then they might just become exactly how the others did. Willing to give anything for power. So to prevent that... Itachi wanted you to kill him. And probably so you could be all focused on it and not give any girl a chance to get in your bed!" He grinned and laughed, knowing Sakura would still accept an offer to sleep with the brunet, no matter what his past was life.
"Just when you started to sound intelligent, dobe." But he felt so much more relaxed, so relieved. Actually, he felt drained. And very lucky, to have someone like Naruto. Not many friends would let you attack them and try to beat the life out of them just because you were in a bad mood, then sit there and listen and talk to you about it afterwards. As well as offering to help repair the property damage!
"Keh! I said don't call me that, teme!" But the boy didn't frown for long, just glad to have the same old Sasuke back. "Oi, wanna go get Ramen?" Black eyes rolled up and he sighed. Fully prepared to hear the rejection, blue eyes widened when a pale hand was extended to him from a now-standing Uchiha.
"Move it, Dobe, or you're paying for your own." Immediately, he grabbed onto the hand and pulled himself up, offering a quick word of thanks before racing off towards the entrance, intent on getting his beloved food before the offer was gone. Fighting back a smile to just a slight smirk, Sasuke followed. The village was used to seeing them bloody and bruised, they wouldn't ask questions, just shrug it off as another typical fight between rivals.

Sakura raced into the Hokage's office, not even bothering to wait until she and Gaara were finished. Two pairs of eyes focused on her, while Shizune stood behind her, trying to coax her to be patient. But if there was one thing the pink-haired girl knew, it was that both Gaara and Tsunade were fond of Naruto, and would want to hear this.
"Sasuke and Naruto are fighting again!" Tsunade relaxed from her tense posture, leaning back in the seat and raising an eyebrow.
"And how is this anything new? Those two fight more than Jiraiya spies on women." Sakura shook her head.
"This time it's different! They're fighting inside the Uchiha compound!" Now the Hokage stood. Both boys tended to pick fights with each other, but they always made sure they were in a training area before physically attacking one another. To be fighting inside the Uchiha compound, which would no doubt result in serious damage to one of the boys' home, could only mean one thing. Something was seriously wrong.
"What! What happened!" Sakura was shaking and wringing her hands together. It didn't help that she had a furious Godaime and Kazekage staring at her.
"Well, after Naruto and I left Gaara-sama here, we headed to Sasuke-kun's house to check on him, because for some reason he had locked himself inside, and was refusing to come out for anything! I tried calling to him, but finally Naruto said he was going to see just what was going on. I didn't understand, but then Naruto apparently broke into Sasuke-kun's house! And only moments later, we heard them fighting, and..." She looked at them fearfully. "When we heard walls cracking and falling, most of the others ran off. I... I stayed... And finally, it got real quiet... And no one's come out of there in a while! I don't know what happened to them! I don't know how Naruto got in, so I couldn't check on them!" Gaara was already standing and heading for the door, sand flowing around him.
"Oi, do you even know where the Uchiha compound is?" Tsunade called out to him, only to receive a slight nod as he left. "Well, dammit. There goes my day." She collapsed back into her chair, reaching under her desk for the sake she kept hidden from Shizune.
"H-Hokage-sama, don't you think we should check on them? What if someone's hurt? What if Gaara kills Sasuke-kun!" The sannin sighed.
"Trust me, it's damn near impossible to kill the brat, and I doubt he'd kill the Uchiha. And he would have brought him here to me if he thought he needed help that bad. Plus, that red-head seems to do whatever the brat says. So if he says 'don't hurt Sasuke', and I know he will, then I'm sure the kid'll be fine." With that bit of wisdom, she pushed aside the nearly-finished paperwork before pouring herself a cup to drink. Honestly, she was wondering how the brat would handle the news that the Kazekage would be leaving for his own village in three days. She really didn't feel like listening to him whine.

Well, there you go. Also, I read over my last chapter. Holy crap, all the mistakes! I blame it on being in a hurry, and also... this place will squish your words together, and if you don't look over it, you won't see them. Also, I've learned something... Even after two years out of commission, I can still write awesome smut! HAH!
