Thank you for reviews guys! I meant to get this chapter up sooner, but once again, my account on here was giving me problems. It'll probably happen again within a couple days, but whatever. For now, here's chapter 4.
Disclaimer: I still don't own Naruto, smarties, or any other brand of cereal/food/whatever that appears in this fanfic.
Naruto and Kakashi were in the cereal section, picking out honeycomb, cheerios, frosted flakes-
"And lucky charms!"
Naruto pointed to a shelf where the cereal lay. Kakashi got the cereal and put it into the shopping cart that Naruto was sitting in.
"Kakashi-sensei, can I get out of the cart now?" Naruto asked.
"Clean up in aisle 5, dammit!" the speakers blared.
Kakashi shook his head, "No way! You've caused more than enough trouble for one day already within a span of only 10 minutes! You're staying in here where you'll be out of trouble."
Naruto crossed his arms and made a pouting face.
"Oh, let's get some trail mix while we're at it." Kakashi said as he pushed the cart down the next isle to where the trail mix lay.
"Can we get the kind with smarties in them? The other trail mix kind is yucky!" Naruto said, making a face as he thought about it.
Suddenly, to Naruto's horror, standing in the bulk food aisle were Chouji (who was pigging out on the bulk food from the bulk food containers), Ino, Shikamaru, and their sensei, Asuma.
"Oh-no! C'mon, Kakashi-sensei! You gotta let me out of the buggy! They're going to laugh at me! I'll be the laughing stock among the Konoha genins! I promise I won't mess anything else up! I'll be good!" Naruto pleaded as though he was begging for his life.
Asuma spotted Kakashi and shouted out to him, "Hey Kakashi! Is that Naruto in the buggy you're pushing there? How cute!"
Kakashi muttered under his breath. "Believe me, Naruto. I'm as embarrassed as you are"
"CLEAN UP IN AISLE 5, YOU GOD DAMN-" The speaker was cut off at that moment.
Ino laughed out loud as she pointed at Naruto. " Guys, look at this! Naruto's in the buggy! Doesn't he look like an adorable little baby?"
"Baby Naruto!" Chouji laughed out as choked on bulk food he was eating.
"Oh geez, not again!" Asuma groaned as he proceeded to unchoke Chouji.
Shikamaru glanced at Naruto. "Hm? What's this? Being so troublesome I suppose, so you had to sit in the buggy? Wait till the rest of the genins hear about this!"
Naruto growled angrily "Don't breath a word out about this to Konoha, Shikamaru!"
Ino chuckled "Oh don't worry, Naruto. We'll only spread the word to the end of Sunagakure!"
Ino and Chouji let out a loud laugh as Naruto crossed his arms and pouted.
Asuma grinned, "Ha! He's cute when he pouts!"
"Oh please..." Kakashi groaned as he turned to the trail mix. "Hey Chouji, if you could move for a moment please? I need to get to the trail mix container."
Asuma glanced at Chouji. "What? Oi, Chouji! Stop eating food from the bulk food containers! We'll get in trouble for this, and I'll have to pay for that too, you know! Oh, great, and you've made a big mess of the trail mix on the floor!"
Shikamaru scoffed. "Tch. How troublesome."
Asuma sighed as the speakers came back on "Clean up in the bulk food Aisle."
Kakashi peered into 'trail mix' bulk food container to see that there was no more left.
"...He ate all of the trail mix in that container. Well that's convenient." Kakashi sighed.
"Yay! No disgusting trail mix for us!" Naruto cheered.
Back to Sasuke...Neji and Sasuke stood a few feet from each other, glaring, and both reaching for the last tube of wasabi.
"Sasuke…" Neji sneered
"Neji…" Sasuke scowled.
"Sasuke…."
"Neji…"
"Sasuke…"
Sasuke stopped abruptly. "Ok, that's enough. I've got to get the wasabi now, if you could move your-"
"No! I am the one who is getting this wasabi. Fate has already decided that!" Neji stood, hand ready to grab the wasabi.
Sasuke persisted, "If I don't get that wasabi, my sensei's going to kill me! So if you could just let me-"
"No! I need that wasabi for my tacos, hotdogs, and cheesecake!" Neji shot back.
"What? Oh man...god made two of them!" Sasuke groaned.
Neji spoke, " I will fight you for this wasabi, and I will win, as fate has already decided the outcome! How I have been waiting a long time to fight you, Uchiha Sasuke..."
"Oh great...this is going to take me all night...and he's not going to back down." Sasuke muttered under his breath.
Neji got into his battle stance, ready to duke it out to the death for the last tube of wasabi.
Sasuke suddenly put a surprised expression on his face, looking behind Neji. "Huh? Woah! Is that Hinata over there hitting on some random guy?"
Neji's eyes widened "What? Hinata would never-" Neji looked around, only to leave him open to Sasuke.
"HA! Psych! " Sasuke karate chopped Neji on the head, knocking the unfortunate Hyuuga out. Sasuke quickly grabbed the wasabi and dashed off down the isle to find Sakura.
"Kakashi-sensei better be grateful for this damn tube of crap! I went through a lot of trouble to get it." Sasuke grumbled.
Sakura had meanwhile gotten all the things needed for the taco kit and the hot chocolate without much trouble. But she was still angsting over Sasuke not wanting to shop with her. Sasuke approached her, and tapped her on the shoulder.
"Ready? I've got all the stuff. Let's meet the other two by the checkout."
"Oh, ok. Did you find everything alright? Any problems?" Sakura asked.
Sasuke was about to tell her about the trouble of getting the damned wasabi with Neji, but then horrible images of Sakura glomping him and fondling him came to his head, if he told her what happened. He could hear her already..."Oh-no! Did he hurt you in any way?" "Were you traumatized?" "Where does it hurt, sweetie?" "I knew you could defeat him, 'cause you're my special Uchiha boy!"
Sasuke shuddered violently at these thoughts.
"Are you ok, Sasuke-kun?" Sakura asked after seeing Sauske randomly start to shudder.
"Oh, yeah. I'm fine." Sasuke grumbled. "I've got to stop letting my imagination go wild like that!" Sasuke thought aloud in his head.
Meanwhile, after much teasing from Asuma and his team, Naruto and Kakashi finally managed to leave and grab the rest of the food that they needed and headed back for the checkout.
"You know sensei, if you had just let me out of the buggy-" Naruto started.
"No, Naruto. Another mess of things because of your hyperactive nature has more disastrous results than a little teasing." Kakashi finished.
As that moment, a random ninja who happened to know Kakashi walked by and stared.
"Wow, Kakashi! You have a kid? I didn't know! How adorable!"
Kakashi suppressed the urge to pummel the ninja's head in, but Naruto however tried to do so before Kakashi restrained him.
"Clean up in the bulk food aisle." The speakers repeated.
"What's taking them? Why can't they hurry up!" Sakura cried.
"Maybe they got lost." Sasuke suggested.
"Oh, that's ridiculous! How can someone get lost in a grocery store?"
"Well, this place is pretty big actually, for a grocery store." Sasuke pointed out.
"I guess it's possible to get lost, but I mean, come on! It'sa grocery store! They're ninjas! And Kakashi is an elite-level jounin. They can't get lost that easily." Sakura concluded.
Meanwhile...
"Uhh...sensei? Where are we?"
Kakashi rubbed his chin thoughtfully "Well...we're in the meat section now, butI can't recall where the checkout was."
"I think the door's over that way!" Naruto pointed. "No wait! It was this way! I think..." Naruto pointed in the opposite direction from where he had pointed before.
"I hate to say it Naruto, but...I think we're lost." Kakashi concluded.
Naruto pointed out something to Kakashi. " Hey! They sell buckets of ice cream here! Can we take some of that for camping too?"
Back at the checkout...
"With those two, anything's possible." Sasuke told Sakura.
Half an hour passed by, and Naruto and Kakashi still hadn't made it to the checkout.
Sasuke grumbled. "Crap, this sucks. I'm going home!"
"What? But Naruto and Kakashi-sensei aren't back yet!" Sakura said, hoping to keep Sasuke at the store with her little longer.
"Who cares? Kakashi-sensei is paying for it. It's fine. I've done my work. I'm going to get some sleep now. I have a feeling I'm not going to get much on the camping trip." Sasuke replied.
So the Uchiha quickly left the store before Sakura could say anything.
Sakura stood there, staring at the door that Sasuke had left through. "He left me here all alone to suffer! Why must you do this, Sasuke? Why?"
To be continued...
Please, please, please review! I'll get the next chapter up more quickly than I got this one up.
