Hurrah! Writing another chapter. I'm on a roll baby.(; And my day was just made 'cause I actually got a review. o: Thank you my dearest reviewer, 3DY3Namite3 ;D And this chapter is how it is because I just remembered that I watched Alice in Wonderland a few weeks ago and yeah... Now, on with the story! And I still own nothing. I wish I did, but I don't Well I own Keiko but. OK I'LL SHUT UP NOW.
I was sitting in a tree, I don't know why, when I saw Kakashi run by. He was wearing bunny ears and was looking at a small stopwatch.
"I'm late." He muttered repeatedly while running.
I followed after him until I saw him jump into a hole. I decided to go down as well. And then I was falling. The hole seemed to go on forever. I hit the ground at last. But only to see that what was supposed to be in me wasn't...
I was face to face with Shadow. He appeared to be a panther or something of that sort. I'd never actually seen him before, but I instantly knew it was him.
"Aha! Keiko! You've decided to join us." His voice was just as it was in my head.
"Uh...I'm so confused right now."
"You're confusion will end shortly! Now...follow me!" And with that Shadow skipped away...it was weird.
But I followed him nonetheless. We reached a room with a small door and a table.
"There's no way in hell I'm fitting through that door, Shadow."
"I know." He grinned and disappeared.
"Am I on drugs or something? Dammit." I muttered to myself as I crouched down in front of the door. I tried to open it...but it screamed bloody murder.
"Holy bumblebees!" I shouted, falling backwards. "Doors aren't supposed to scream!"
"And you aren't supposed to pull on my nose either! I'm locked either way." Wait..I recognized that voice...oh my god. Iruka was a door? I looked to check and saw a cut matching Iruka's on the nob.
"I-Iruka? You're a .... door?!"
"Yeah. Don't ask. Please? Look, to pass and get through you just need to get the key off the table and drink some of that." He signaled towards the table. Looking towards it, I saw a bottle of green liquid and a key.
I grabbed the key and unlocked Iruka, which was awkward since I had to put it in his mouth. Damn my perverted thoughts. After unlocking him, I drank some of the foul-tasting beverage and started to shrink. Soon enough, I was as small as the door. Iruka opened up and I walked through, which was still awkward to me.
On the other side of the door was a forest, but not like any normal forest, oh no, nothing like that. It was full of giant mushrooms and the likes. I stood there for god knows how long just staring at my surroundings. Then, Shadow reappeared right in front of me, still grinning (creepy..).
"You made it! Hurrah."
"Where did Kakashi go? And why was he dressed up like a rabibt?"
"You'll find out later."
"Then at least tell me where I am!"
"Wonderland of course."
"Wonder-what?"
"The name doesn't matter just yet. Just go. Explore." And he vanished yet again.
I began wondering aimlessly through the place until I heard shouting. And who else shouts but Naruto? I recognized his voice and went towards where it was coming from. When I came across its source, I was surprised to find two Narutos fighting over something.
"No! Chicken ramen is better!"
"Beef!"
"Chicken!"
"Beef!"
Sweat-dropping, I decided to stop them. "Eh...Naruto?"
"What?!" They both yelled.
"Hi." They stared at me and I stared back. Just blank stares.
"Want to play a game?" Naruto #1 proposed.
"Yeah! Want to? Huh? Huh?!" Naruto #2 joined in.
"Err.." I thought about it and decided against it. "I probably shouldn't. I need to figure out where I am and how to get back to Konoha..."
"Aww! Why do you need to get back? It's more fun here!" They were pretty good at talking in unison.
"There are things I need to do.."
"Like what?" God, were they persistent.
"Uhh..well..we're going to go get another mission tomorrow, right?"
"Shadow said you weren't going to go.." Naruto #2 sounded bummed out.
"Yeah..." Naruto #1 sounded the same.
"I'll go if you want me to."
"Why?" Goddammit, they just don't give up!
"Because..I don't know, okay? Jeez."
"Okay. Well, we'll try and help. It's that way." They both pointed in different directions.
"No! It's this way!" #1 fumed.
"No! This way!" #2 wailed.
And they started arguing again.
This is going nowhere..I might as well just find my own way.
Walking away from the two bickering Uzumaki's, I began to hear weird noises.
Maybe I shouldn't go towards the noise. It could be dangerous for all I know...Ugh, no Shadow in my head is lonely.
I followed the sound and found a long table with all the supplies for a tea party on it. The teapots were whistling a merry tune and most of the chairs were empty, except for two. In one was Rin, a childhood friend of mine and Kakashi's. She was a bit hyper it seemed and was pouring tea into a broken cup. In the other chair was...I couldn't believe my eyes. It was Obito. His left eye was covered with the rim of a top hat and he was smiling like crazy.
"Ah! Keiko! You're late for the party!" Obito welcomed me.
"C-c-come have some t-t-tea!!" Rin screamed, smiling as well.
"Oh my, all the chairs seem to be taken. I'm sorry Keiko!"
"Uh..." I was speechless.. I began walking away, going along with the whole no-chairs-empty thing.
"Wait! I was kidding! Have a seat!" Obito panicked.
I walked over and sat in a seat opposite Rin's (Obito sat at the head of the table). And then, a tiny version of Pakkun the dog crawled out of the teapot in front of me. But he didn't have dog ears..he had mouse ears.
"Pakkun?!" I freaked out, recognizing the ninja dog.
"Yeah." He looked at me blankly and went back into his teapot.
Uh..okay then..
"Well, I should be going now.." I started to get out of the chair I sat in.
"But you haven't had your tea!!!" Rin jumped out of her chair, scaring the hell out of me.
"AHH!" I screamed, backing away.
Obito and Rin looked at each other as I ran away, not looking back. I kept running till I ran into some more Naruto's. They were painting the flowers of a bush of white roses red.
"More?!?!" I was about to start running in the opposite direction when I noticed Kakashi run by, still in his rabbit get-up.
"Kakashi! Wait!"
"But I'm late."
I chased after him, eventually reaching what looked like a king's court. Kakashi ran up a set of stairs to a pedestal and muttered, in his oh-so-lazy voice, "The king and queen have arrived."
I looked towards the thrones before me and saw what I thought I'd never see again. Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki sat in their thrones, smiling towards the soldiers surrounding me. The soldiers, of course, were copies of Naruto. I was completely surrounded.
"Keiko." Minato greeted me, holding out his hand and smiling warmly.
"Dad.." I walked slowly toward him, my eyes beginning to tear up. Seeing Kushina smiling towards me as well started the tears running down my cheeks. "Mom.."
And then, it all started to fade away. Everything. Kakashi. Mom. Dad. All of the Narutos. Until I stood in a blank white space, still crying.
And then my face was splashed with water and everything was dark.
"Get up!" I heard.
Opening my eyes, I saw my room. Naruto stood over me, grinning and holding an empty bucket.
It was just a dream...
That was an awesome dream! I'm a panther!
Wow Shadow. Aha.
"Come on Keiko-chan! We've got to go to the Hokage's office to get a mission!" Naruto was still grinning.
Looks like he ruined your plans Keiko. Ha.
Dun dun dun.(: Eep! I'm so happy that I found out a way to show who Keiko's parents are/were. :D But yeah. Naruto foiled her plot.(; I shall update shortly! SHAZAM!
P.S. Warfield likes reviews. :3 And likes reviewers even more. (: Muashasha.
