A/N: Ughh =_= Sorry guys, I know I said a week and I could rally off excuses but you don't really want to hear them so yeah, on with the fic. Sorry for yet another delay.

"Tell me again why you thought this would be a good idea?" Sasuke sighed, rubbing his temples with his hand as he tried to curb his growing annoyance at the hyperactive being before him.

"Come on, Sasuke." Kiba whined at him, his hands behind him, still trying to hide what was there even though he'd been caught. "We can't have an awesome sleep over without alcohol." He brought forward the pack of beers he was holding. "It's like tradition to have it."

"Why?"

"Because we're not meant to have it."

Sasuke was very tempted to smack the smug smile off of Kiba's face. Luckily for Kiba, the two of them were interrupted.

"I second the Uchiha." Neji turned from where he'd been helping Naruto set up the bedding for the evening. He nodded his head behind him to Lee, the last member of the sleepover, Shikamaru and Chouji already having made plans together and Shino having family over for the night. "There is no way I want Lee drinking anything."

Kiba tilted his head, pouting at the fact that he wasn't allowed to drink. "Why can't Lee drink?"

"He's a very bad drunk." Neji shivered as if it brought back horrible memories.

Sasuke nodded, happy that he had someone on his side in this argument. "And besides-" He cut himself off realising that he couldn't tell them he didn't know what would happen if Gaara and Naruto got drunk. He looked up at Kiba's expectant look, glad that he was good with coming up with excuses. He got close to Kiba so that no-one else but him and Neji could hear. "If Lee's a bad drunk, what do you expect Gaara would be like?"

Kiba paled slightly at the thought before a shiver ran down his spine. He had just heard a giggle behind him. "What the-?"

Spinning around, the three were faced with a sight they never thought they'd see. Namely Gaara with a grin on his face and a small giggle emanating from him every few moments along with a hiccup.

Kiba looked down at the six-pack of beers he'd been holding, noticing finally that two were missing. "When did he take them?" He noted that Gaara still had one in his hands; the other discarded and cocked an eyebrow. "You got like that after one can?"

"My point exactly." Sasuke took the rest of the beers from Kiba. "So how about we don't give him anymore to drink."

"What about the one he's still got?"

Sasuke gave Kiba an incredulous look. "You wanna take it from him?"

Kiba shook his head quickly, his face once again paling at the thought of trying to wrestle the can from drunken Gaara's grip.

"Right then, let's just leave it as it is and hope he falls asleep quickly."

~Hours later~

Naruto sat up frowning. Ever since Gaara had given him something to drink, Naruto having taken it instantly from him in wonder after how giddy Gaara had gotten from it, he'd been wide awake. Even after everyone else had fallen asleep he couldn't do the same no matter what he tried. He pouted; everyone had said they were going to stay up all night because that's what you did at a sleepover, which had confused him a lot. If that was so, why was it called a sleepover? He shrugged, not really caring that much, only caring that his friends had somehow broken the rules to said 'sleepover'. He looked around, noticing Kiba's laptop was still on, a contraption he'd gotten used to after all his IT lessons. Kiba had decided he couldn't be without it even for a night so here it stood in Naruto's sight. A grin took over his face as he plotted. Obviously he needed to get his friends back for not keeping to the rules. He got up quietly, heading to a draw full of stationary before turning to the computer after he had retrieved what he wanted. Opening the internet he began to scroll through pictures for some inspiration.

~The next morning~

Lee sat up and the stumbled to the bathroom, the rest of the boys grumbling and groaning awake as he tried his hardest not to step on them.

Sasuke sat up and stretched, shocked at how well he'd slept. He looked around the room and instantly grew worried. He could see Naruto grinning from ear to ear as he watched the rest of them slowly wake up, instantly making Sasuke suspicious. "Naruto, what have you done?"

Naruto looked over to him with an innocent face, one Sasuke saw through easily. "What are you talking about, Sasuke?"

Before Sasuke could answer, a gasp from the other side of the room caught his attention as the other boys finally woke up to a coherent level.

Kiba burst out laughing, staring at Neji. "Dude, what happened to you?"

Neji looked worried, having been the one that gasped when he looked at Kiba. "Why? What have I got on me? Because if you're anything to go by I'm worried."

"Huh?" Kiba blinked, wondering what was going on. It took him a minute of continuous flailing as he tried to look at his own face at whatever Neji was staring at before giving up and turning to Naruto. "Naruto, do you have a mirror?"

Naruto nodded, pointing to the bedside table. Iruka had bought it for them after the amounts of times they'd wandered into school without caring what they looked like and thought it might help.

Kiba stretched as he got up before grabbing the mirror. He stared at himself for a few seconds in disbelief before laughing. "You know what? I quite like it; maybe I should get these as tattoos when I'm older." He angled the mirror to have another look at himself, quite pleased with the two red triangles that ran down under his eyes. "They kind of remind me of fangs for some reason."

Neji lifted an eyebrow. "Really? You like it?" He shrugged, noting that the other boy had strange tastes before prodding him for the mirror. "I want to see what's on me. Give it."

Kiba passed over the mirror. "Your one's on your forehead, but I think it's quite cool as well."

"My forehead?" Neji still worried peeked into the mirror, moving his head so that he could glance up at his forehead properly in the small mirror. He blinked a few times. "It's green."

Kiba cracked up at the expression on his face. "Dude, do you have to look so surprised? Is it that bad?"

Neji shrugged. "No, it'll wash off soon enough. And I guess it's quite different, I could get used to it I guess." He tilted his head again to have a better look, the green 'tattoo' spreading all the way across his forehead. He looked over at Sasuke, Naruto and Gaara, who was still curled up under the duvet, his head hurting slightly. "I feel like asking which one of you did it but I think it's obvious." His eyes trained on Naruto for a second before looking at the other two. "The only thing is, what do you two have on you?"

Sasuke looked down worriedly but couldn't see anything. He looked back at the other two, who were equally perplexed, so he knew there wasn't anything on his face.

"Stand up, maybe?"

Sasuke stood at Neji's suggestion and turned slowly, not seeing anything on his legs.

"There!" Kiba shouted triumphantly.

Sasuke stopped, looking over at Kiba. "Where?"

"On your shoulder, here..." He came up behind Sasuke, holding the mirror so that Sasuke could see the small black marking near his neck.

Sasuke frowned. "What are they? Three commas?" He shrugged before flopping back down. "Whatever, at least it's black." He turned to the pile of duvet that was Gaara. "What about you Gaara?"

"Hmm?" Gaara sat up, blinking away sleep as he did so, not really having heard the conversation in his half asleep state. He shook his head a few times, his hair flicking away from his forehead for a second.

"There!" Another triumphant call from Kiba rang out as he pointed at Gaara's forehead.

Gaara looked at him dazed. "Huh?"

Kiba ran over and was about to push Gaara's hair out of the way but thought better of it as he saw the glare he received for even stepping in the redhead's personal space especially when he was half asleep and feeling the after effects from the beer he'd stolen from Kiba. Kiba pointed again, holding up the mirror. "Under your hair, there's something on your forehead."

Gaara frowned, pushing up his hair to see a bright red character on one side of his forehead. He dropped his hand before flopping back into bed, not caring enough to comment.

Kiba blinked. "That's it?"

"Mhmm."

Kiba stepped back after he realised that was going to be his only response.

Naruto pouted, crossing his arms. "You guys are no fun! You weren't meant to like them."

Neji smirked. "OK, I knew it was you already but you did just give yourself away."

Sasuke couldn't resist smirking along with him at Naruto's blank expression.

Kiba found the black marker that Naruto had used on them and grinned mischievously. "Hey guys, should we get him back?"

Neji and Sasuke looked at each other for a second before nodding and launching themselves over, grabbing Naruto by the arms, while Kiba began to draw.

Naruto gasped, laughing as the pen tickles his navel. "S-stop it guys! Gaara, make them stop!" He turned to his friend only to flop in disappointment as he noticed he'd fallen back to sleep. He looked down when Kiba was finished, rubbing a finger along the large swirling pattern that littered his stomach. "This is kind of cool actually."

Neji sighed as he sat up. "Well our revenge plan didn't work. Now what?"

Before either of the others could reply a scream emanated from the bathroom.

Neji turned to Naruto with his eyebrow raised again. "What the hell did you do?"

Naruto looked up sheepishly. "I just made his bushy eyebrows reach up to his hairline."

Neji smirked again, now having a plan of his own. "Lee, you OK in there?"

"No, I'm not!" Lee's annoyed voice echoed out of the bathroom.

"Naruto did it." Neji smirked as he looked over at a paling Naruto.

"That's just mean, Neji!"

-Meanwhile-

Two figures stood at the bottom of the flats that Naruto and Gaara occupied, being able to hear the ruckus that was occurring from down there as they looked up at the open window of their flat.

One flicked open his phone, dialling one of only a few numbers that occupied it, his red eyes skimming the area as he waited for the person at the other end to pick up.

The line clicked. "Yes?"

"We've found the last two."

"Good, get into position then, the rest of us will arrive soon, just waiting for confirmation about the capture for the last one. Stay alert, these two are meant to be strong." The line clicked off again.

The man flicked the phone down again, slipping it into the pocket of his black and red jacket. "Come on Kisame, they're not going anywhere at the moment, let's find a place where we can keep an eye on them from until the others arrive."

Kisame shrugged at him before turning around and beginning to walk off, his face covered by a hood and his hands in his pockets to hide the blue hue of his skin. "Whatever, Itachi."

Itachi stood for a moment longer, looking up at the window, before following Kisame, a soft smile spreading across his lips. "We meet again little brother."

A/N: I Know it's obvious but I thought I should state it. All of Naruto's drawing are - Kiba's fang markings, Neji's submission seal, Sasuke's curse mark and Gaara's 'love' kanji tattoo(?) and Naruto's kyubi seal is what the others drew. Lee's was just for a laugh ^^;
