Arrival, pt. 2

There stood a Roselia looking timidly at Sasuke. Sakura had a Meowth rubbing at her ankle "Aww they're so cute!" Sakura squealed. Sasuke blinked "Define cute, please" Sakura looked scathingly at Sasuke. Suddenly there was another rustling sound. Sasuke and Sakura readied themselves for action. Two team rocket operatives jumped out from the long grass.


Lee yawned, that jutsu was tiring. "Lee, do you mind GETTING THE HELL OFF ME?!" yelled a voice from beneath him. Lee yelped and tried to scramble off of the very mad Gaara but was too slow. Sand wrapped itself around Lee's waist and threw him against a tree. Gaara said angrily, "And, What am I wearing?" He gazed down at his clothing. It looked somewhat like the black clothes that he normally wore but the outfit was crimson red. Covering his robe on his upper body was a one-armed brown leather vest. Lee cried loudly in an obnoxious voice, "Yosh, It's not the color of youth, but it still looks good on you Gaara." Gaara laughed harshly, "You should talk, and you aren't even wearing any green yourself." Lee was dressed in yellow and blue. His shirt was a bright periwinkle, his pants as yellow as the sunlight. Lee yelled and then quickly emptied out his backpack. Ten pokeballs, a small brass case, several packages of food, an extra set of clothes, a pokedeck, his Konoha headband, and a first aid kit came spilling out of the pack. Gaara pulled his backpack over and emptied its contents. Inside his pack were similar items, but instead of the first aid kit, Gaara had several packages of pokemon food with assorted labels on the packages.


Shikamaru yawned, "This jutsu is so troublesome. Now that I think about it, everything is troublesome. Except watching clouds, of course." Suddenly, he heard a loud, piercing scream. "Shikamaru, Shikamaru, I look creepy and I don't have my big fan. I can't find it anywhere! Shikamaru, have you been listening to me?." Shikamaru opened his eyes and glared at the sandy haired girl. "Temari, I can't ignore you. You landed on top of me. You knocked me out. And, furthermore, you are a girl." Temari glared savagely at Shikamaru and pulled out a regular sized fan from her waist sash. "If you say one more thing about that men and women crap, I am going to kill you and go on my way." Shikamaru closed his eyes. Tamari's fan opened. She swung it hard at Shikamaru's head and said, "Kamaitachi no Jutsu". The top of Shikamaru's head was sheared slightly. Temari cursed loudly in unison with Shikamaru's laughter. Shikamaru chuckled, "Ha ha, it didn't work!"


Naruto screamed loudly, "Why am I wearing a belly shirt?" Suddenly a squeal erupted behind him. Then a vulpix came out from behind a bush and ran straight into him. "Ow, that hurt! ", said a mysterious voice. Naruto looked quickly around trying to figure out who had said it. The serious voice came again, sounding scared out of its wits. "Oh, what am I doing? I need to get away NOW!" Then Naruto looked down at where the mysterious voice was emanating from. "Oh, a fox, I understand now. Wait, this is not an ordinary fox." The vulpix leapt backward, its six tails waving agitatedly. "N-Naruto wh-what are you t-talking about?" Suddenly Naruto's head snapped upright. "Someone is coming." he said. A team rocket operative leaped out of the shadows. "Hand over that vulpix!" he shouted. Naruto yawned and disabled him easily, flipping the angry person on to his back. He subdued him without a struggle. "What the… ", stammered the person. "Grrrr, you're gonna pay for that!" The man took an oddly colored ball out of his pocket. He throws it into the air. Naruto blinked. This place was getting stranger and stranger! Tail low, a bird-like creature, emerged from the ball and the man placed the ball back into his pocket. A laugh resounded from inside Naruto's head. "Ha. Let me out. I want to talk to that person!"
