"What do you want to do?" asked Sasuke.

"Train," said Shinju.

"Really?" asked Sasuke.

"Really," replied Shinju.

'This kid is determind,' thought Sasuke, 'Better than being with Gai. If I had to spend a whole hour with him, I'd go insane.'

"Ready. Can I practice dodging? You'll through kunai at me and I'll dodge," said Shinju, snapping Sasuke back to reality.

"Ok?" said Sasuke.

They started practicing and Sasuke started with a few kunai. At the first kunai, Shinju jumped in front of it and it stabbed him in the chest.

"What the...Wha...Why?" babbled Sasuke.

The lifeless body went poof. 'Are you serious? A shadow clone?' thought Sasuke. His jaw dropped. He heard laughing, that sounded like Shinju.

"What the...Shinju!" yelled Sasuke, running after him. Shinju ran to where Neji and Naoki were. He was fake crying. Shinju had his arms around Neji's leg.

"Wow, Sasuke. You have a way with kids," said Neji, patting Shinju's back.

"I didn't...he...he's faking!" yelled Sasuke, making Shinju, fake, cry more.

Naoki smiled, delivishly, to Shinju.

"Go help Gai," said Neji.

Sasuke stomped off. Shinju smiled after him. 'Children of the devil,' thought Sasuke.

When Sasuke got into the living room, he asked, "Where's Gai?"

"Don't know," said Izumi.

"Just glad, he's gone," added Mai.

"What do you guys want to do?" asked Sasuke.

"How about we play cocoon?" asked Ichiro.

"Alright," said Hotaru.

"How do you play?" asked Sasuke.

"You'll see," said Ichiro, devilishly.

"Ok?" said Sasuke.

Hotaru and Ichiro got out the yarn and started wrapping up Sasuke the way they'd done Gai.

"What the...hey!" yelled Sasuke.

Mai put duck tape over his mouth, a second later.

Izumi put gorialla glue on the back of Sasuke's covered shirt. The four then stuck the odd cocoon above the couch.

"I like it," remarked Hotaru.

"Yeah," said Izumi.

"It matches the color, of the wall," added Mai.

"Two down one to go. How's Naoki doing?" replied Ichiro.

"Good, she's taking the guy into the room. Shinju can't get out," replied Izumi.

"We'll lay the net, then," said Mai.

"Let's go," said Hotaru.
