Two's a Crowd? – C 'n B in the NarutoVerse

Episode 2

"What the-" I said and leapt back a few paces.

I looked back at Candie, and then it hit me. She was freaking animated. I looked down at me. I was freaking animated. What the hell?!

"Who are you!" yelled Konohamaru, and pointed a finger at me.

I realized my mouth was open and shut it quicky. We, Candie and I, were in the NarutoVerse? This can't be happening.

"You don't know us, but we know you." Said Candie, as she got up aswell.

"What kind of answer is that? Look, we saw you fall out of the sky and we just wanted to know if you were ok." Said Moegi, and rolled her eyes.

"We fell out of the sky?" I asked. That explained the egg.

"Yeah, so are you guys ok?" she asked.

"We've been better." I replied.

"Where are we?" asked Candie.

"You're in the outskirts of Konoha." Answered Udon and sniffed. I stared at his nose for a few seconds and then looked away. That drip coming out if his nose was always annoying.

"Konoha?" Candie asked, excited.

"Yes…?" said Konohamaru, looking at them weirdly.

"Holy shit dude!" she said elatedly, poking me in the arm.

" I know!" I said and looked back at them. 'OMFG!' I thought.

"Can you take us to it?"

As we walked towards Konoha, we started talking with Konohamaru and his gang. He asked us who we were again, and we introduced ourselves. But when he asked where we were from, Bettina and I decided to be vague until we knew for sure what really happened, so we just said "Oh, you know, here and there…"

The great gates of Konoha came up in front of us, and I just couldn't help it, my mouth opened in awe. I turned to look at Bettina, and she was also staring at the gates in wonder, but her mouth wasn't open.

I saw the three genin looking at us weirdly again, so I shut my mouth and cleared my throat. Bettina shook out of it and rubbed the back of her neck.

'This cannot be happening…' I thought, as we walked through the gates, and passed the two chuunin on duty in the cabin near the gates.

"I like your skirt, where did you get it?" Moegi asked, snapping me out of my trance.

"What?" I said and looked down. We were still wearing what we were when we fell asleep; my white off the shoulder blouse, white pleated miniskirt and silver heeled sandals. Bettina wore a grey velvet jacket over a black full sleeved fitted top, with grey skinny legs and white Nikes. Not anything special, but considering where we were, we kinda stood out.

"Oh thanks, um, I don't think they sell them here…" I trailed off.

"Hey Konohamaru, what's the time?" asked Bettz.

"Huh? oh …I think its around four in the afternoon…… come to think of it, I haven't had lunch yet! Are you guys hungry?" he said excitedly.

Bettina and I exchanged glances.

"RAMEN!" we said in unison.

As all 5 of us walked, some running *ahem*, towards the Ichiraku Ramen stand, a though occurred to me.

'If we're in the NarutoVerse……that means that Naruto must be here. OMFG, what if he's at the ramen stand!?' I thought, and came to a stop, my stomach fluttering wildly.

"Bettz what's wrong?" called Candie, a few paces in front of me.

I looked up at her feeling sick. Naruto is here. HERE. And I'm here as well. Holy shit!

Candie came back to my side and looked me in the eyes. She probably saw my nervousness, because she grinned and hooked her arm through mine.

"Don't worry, he'll love you." She said and dragged me to the stand.

When we finally got the stand, Candie lifted the flap and looked around inside. I stood outside mentally giving myself a shake.

'For Gods sake, I'm acting like Hinata! I need to put myself together, and get over it.'

Candie lifted her head out of the stand and pulled me through.

"He's not here, try again later." She said and winked.

I rolled my eyes and told her to shut up. We took our seats and the three kids ordered what they wanted, then Udon asked us what we wanted. Candie ordered a diet beef ramen, and I ordered a full flavour vegetarian ramen. What's the point in eating ramen if you don't taste the full flavour of it? It kills it.

The three genin started arguing about their most recent mission as we waited for our orders. Candie looked over at me and smirked.

"The look on your face was priceless you know, when I mentioned that he'll love you. Your such a pansy." She said and stuck her tongue out.

"Whatever. You know, if we're in the NarutoVerse, then that means a certain Kiba-kun is here as well…" I said and grinned at her blush.

"Yeah I know, and I'll make him fall in love with me. Believe it." She said and we both laughed.

"God, your worse than Sakura…" I said and shook my head.

"Ok, now that cut deep." she said and pouted. "But, I'm being serious, watch me. He'll be hopelessly in love with me."

"You wanna bet on that?" I said raising an eyebrow in disbelief.

"Fo sho. Be my slave for 2 weeks if I win, and vice versa for you."

"Done."

After we finished our meal, Konohamaru, Moegi and Udon both left, because they had to go home. So that left Bettina and I to wander on our own. We decided to look around the shops for a while and then go the Hokages office to settle things there.

As Bettina got up from her seat, she stopped suddenly, then started patting her butt.

"Dude, what are you doing?" I asked looking at her like o_O.

"Candie look!" she said and pulled out her phone from her back pocket.

I gasped and remembered I had also brought my phone with me, in my blouse pocket. I pulled it out and smiled at her.

"Yes!" I said and hi-5ed her.

"I wonder if it works?" she said and dialled my number.

We waited for a few seconds, but no ringing came from my phone.

"Ahh damn….But we can still take pictures!" I said and put my N97 in camera mode.

"True." She said, and did the same.

We walked around the shop streets for a while, taking pictures of pretty much everything, so it was sunset by the time we decided to go to the Hokages office.

"Ok, which way?" I asked and looked around.

"Well, we should go towards the Hokages building, you know the red one in front of the Hokage heads." Bettina said and we started walking.

"Isn't it kind of weird, we haven't met any of the Naruto characters yet, except Konohamaru and the other 2?" wondered Candie out loud.

"Yeah, I know…. Hey where do you think we are in the story?" Bettz asked looking at me.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, in the manga, the storyline you know? Where do you think we're up to?"

"I don't know, good question though. I guess we'll just have to find out."

We turned a corner onto the road that takes us to the Hokage's building, and we saw a group of people walk out of it. It was quite dark so we couldn't see who it was in the distance, so we kept walking. As we got closer, we could make out that it was 6 people, around our age. Their voices came into range-and they sounded familiar, way too passed us and we realized that the 6 people were none other than, Naruto, Sakura, Sai, Kiba, Hinata and Shino.

"Mother fu-"I blurted out, and whipped around so I couldn't see them. Bettina just froze and gawped at me.

I slowly turned back around and saw them staring straight at us. 'SHIT! They must have heard me…' I thought furiously.

Bettina suddenly grabbed my arm and started pulling me towards the building. I twisted so I could see them behind me and saw that they looked at each other, shrugged and continued walking.

When we had gotten into the building, she shoved me against the wall and glared.

"Great, now they probably think we're freaks." She said and tossed her hair.

"I doubt they saw us properly, relax." I said, getting my composure back, and got off of the wall.

"Are you retarded? They're ninjas, they can see well in the dark." She retorted, rolling her eyes.

A few seconds of silence followed this comment, as we contemplated the thought.

"Who's the pansy now?" said Bettina, and grinned.

"Shut up, let's just get this over with."

We wandered around the hallways for a few minutes; neither of us wanting to admit, that maybe, just maybe, we had lost our way. 'Ok, this is getting ridiculous.' I thought and stopped walking.

"What?" asked Candie, stopping ahead of me.

"We need to focus, or else we'll be here all night." I said and circled my temples. "Think, what did her floor and door look like?"

"Maybe I could help."

Startled by the uncommon voice, I whirled around to come face to face with none other than Kakashi. I stared at him for a few seconds and then looked at Candie. She was squinting at his face, most probably to see what the features under his mask looked like.

I grinned and replied. "Thanks, it would help."

His eyes closed in what we presumed, was a smile; the mask had great coverage; walked forwards.

"Follow me." He said and looked back.

As we walked behind him, Candie and I exchanged looks.

"OMFG, he's so cool." she mouthed and nodded to him.

I smirked and mouthed "I know."

She smiled and then went serious. "I wanna see what's under the mask."

"Me too, but when you try, don't be too obvious, because you'll look like a prick."

Kakashi came to a stop then, and looked to his right. And there was the Hokage's door…..that looked severely worn; maybe because it had been blown off its hinges one to many times.

"I'll introduce you, so don't be intimidated." She said and looked over at us.

We both nodded and looked at each other.

"Lets do this." I said as Candie winked and raised her thumb at me.

"Remember: nice guy pose."

Kakashi narrowed his eyes at us, and I shook my head and laughed.

"Yup."
