Chapter 17: Beach fun!
I DO NOT OWN NARUTO
Day 17 of 30 before the third exam.
-Is Ino coming too? Asked Tifa with a smile.
-Yeah... She's still a little bit afraid of Misty, but she's fine, smiled Sakura while putting her bikini in her bag.
-Its sure gonna be fun! Lee-kun and Hinata-chan are coming too!
-Yeah, it's the first time Lee can get out of the hospital in a while... answered Sakura.
At Shikamaru's place...
-So you'll go for a skinny dipping, Syng? Laughed Shikaku.
-Don't be stupid, dear! They are still young for things like that! There's gonna be girls too, answered his wife.
-Troublesome, whispered Syng.
Shikamaru looked at Syng surprised. He's spending way too much time with the Naras...
-Its been a while since last time I swam in the sea! Its gonna be fun, right Shika?
-The sun is burning... he simply answered back.
Both boys finished stuffing their stuff in their bag and walked to the rendezvous point. Kiba, Hinata and Shino were already there, while Ino, Sakura and Tifa were coming.
-Hun? Where's Chouji, asked Shikamaru.
-He can't come, said Ino near the group. He's got another stomachache...
-What about Neji, Tenten and Lee-kun? Asked Tifa, looking around.
-They went first because they are slowed down by Lee, explained Kiba.
-Hey, Hinata... glad you could come! Smiled Syng at the Hyuuga.
The girl blushed, as usual.
-Where's Misty, Syng? Asked Tifa, looking at the boy.
-She said she would meet up at the beach! Said Syng, having seen the girl the day before.
-Going to the beach will take us around an hour, if not more, explained Kiba.
-Then let's go! Shouted Sakura.
They all start running until they came to the huge south door of Konoha. After being in the forest for a while, they started jumping from trees to trees, divided in their own team, heading for the land of waves...
An hour later, at the beach...
-Ah... are they coming soon? Complained Tenten, already in her bikini suit.
Neji had a shirt and a pair of swimming shorts while Lee was in hospital's blue-like clothes.
The boys were silent until a sound was heard...
-Hun? It seems like... a dog? Said Neji, activating his Byakugan.
Akamaru appeared out of the forest (which was very close to the beach) barking with Kiba running behind him.
-I'm gonna win! Shout the dog-boy.
-Na-ah! Answered the other voice.
Syng and Kiba got out running of the forest to make it to the beach... Kiba won.
-DAMN!
-He beat you, said Sakura while coming out of the forest more calmly.
Everyone was there! The beach was almost closed, since they were in a crescent-like beach with forest behind them, it was beautiful, the sun was hard and the water looked great! Two cabin-like has been put here for people to change their clothes, which they did.
Syng got in the cabin with Shika, Kiba and Shino (Lee and Neji had already changed) while the girls were getting in the other. Without thinking, Syng undressed himself and stuffed his clothes in his bag while searching for his swimming suit while the others were doing the same... that is, until...
-Tifa!? Shouted Kiba.
Every boy hid themselves with the first thing they had on hand...
That is: Akamaru for Kiba, a sandwich for Shikamaru and a towel for Shino. The dog whined...
-Tifa... what are you doing here? Said Syng as calm as ever.
-Do you have sun lotion?
-N'ah... my skin doesn't burn... you shouldn't enter when the guys are naked by the way.
Tifa turned at the boys who were all blushing, even Shino was bloody red behind his glasses.
-Oh... sorry guys...
When all boys and girls were in swimming suit, the fun started with some beach volleyball games, followed by...
-What do you mean "You don't want to go swim"?! Shouted Syng.
-I'm here to take a sunbath... answered Tifa behind her glasses.
-You can't understand, Syng, you're already tanned... Said Ino while laying back on her towel.
-Boys cannot understand beauty... except Sasuke, added Sakura.
-Lee-kun too... said Tifa.
Syng realised he haven't seen Lee in a while... Akamaru was trying to swim with Kiba, Shikamaru was asleep in the sand (he would get burn soon enough...) All the girls were sunbathing, Shino was in the shadow of a tree looking at a butterfly and Neji was meditating. Where the hell were Lee and Misty? The girl hasn't even come to the beach... Nobody had seen her since yesterday and now Lee was missing too...
-Maybe in the woods... he said to himself.
He ran up to the forest and looked around him. There wasn't a sound and he felt nobody was there... but then he saw a shadow running, not like an animal, more like...
-Lee! Oi, Lee! He said, trying to catch on the boy.
Of course, Syng didn't have a hard time getting to the boy, since Lee couldn't walk really well yet...
-Oi, Lee, why are you hiding?
-Oh, Syng-san... I'm not hiding... its just that I can't bare to watch everyone swimming and having fun while I can't even walk...
Syng got hit, as usual, by the same and always fist...
-Why am I the one being hurt again? Cried the boy.
-Because you went off alone without telling where you were going! Lee-Kun, are you ok? Said Tifa.
-Eh... Yes, Tifa-san!
-Fine! Great! We should go back to the beach... there's a surprise waiting for us...
The three of them soon walked to the sand to watch a scene even god couldn't have swear to imagine... and I'm serious here...
All the genins were standing in a row facing the see where another person was standing on the water... Misty!?
The girl was talking to everyone with a loud voice and a small smirk... The kunoichi was wearing quite a bikini but her neck was still wrapped with a scarf.
-Tifa, Syng, Lee! Get in a row, NOW.
The three executed themselves.
-I've been consigned a mission by the hokage himself. And this mission is... to make all of you have fun for once!
Everyone laughed and smiled.
-We'll do something quite unusual... Its like a practice, but a competition also! There's a little island farther behind me, which you can't see now... The competition and rules are simple: You must find a way to get the little flag on the island and bring it back to me...
-What will we win then? Asked Kiba.
-A whole week mission-free. Answered Misty with a smile.
Whispers ran through the row of ninja in swimming suit. Of course, Lee looked down, knowing he couldn't do the competition... he was already mission-free for longer than a week, what good would the prize be for him?
-Ready? START!
And so it began! Most of the genins start running directly on water, using their chakra not to drown. They were all running fast, but then...
-What the?! Shouted Syng.
And explosion threw him back at the shore in seconds.
-By the way, there's invisible exploding tags floating in the way... Smile Misty (That smile made Syng shivers) You're out of run Syng.
-What!? It just began! He cried.
By the time, Neji was in head of the troop. With his byakugan, he could easily see the rocks and the tags, so he didn't have any ambush, but then...
-Gotcha! Shouted Tenten.
Neji was shot with many weapons coming from almost everywhere as the kunoichi was just behind him. By the time he defend himself, Tifa and Kiba were tied in the first position and the island was starting to appear... it was really a small island... and it wasn't that big...
-Say Dog-Boy... where's Akamaru? Smiled Tifa.
-He stayed at the beach while I'm running, answered Kiba without slowing down.
-Ahhh!! Screamed Ino.
Two explosive tags were heard behind them. Neji had almost drown trying to parry every weapon Tenten had throw to him, Tenten had hit an explosive tag while searching for a kunai in her swimming suit (Where does she keep those!?) And was threw back FAR away to the beach (as if the tags were connected there for some reason). Sakura and Ino had tripped trying to push each other... Shikamaru was...
-Why didn't you run like the others? Asked Syng, sitting in the sand.
-Too... troublesome.
Shino got to Kiba and Tifa easily now that the three were the only one left. Tifa turned her head to see her future opponents.
-BUGS!! She screamed.
Rather than drowning in fear... the girl start running even faster. Kiba followed Tifa soon enough by doing his spinning technique, splashing Shino with water. The bugs started panicking inside the boy and himself got hit by an explosive-teleporting tag while confused.
-So its between you and me, dog-boy? Asked Tifa.
-Yup, cat-girl, but this time, I'll win!
They both jumped one last time to land on the sand of the island. They saw the little flag dancing the in weak wind. Both ninjas were looking at each other... a few meters away from the flag.
-Is this a fight? Asked Kiba, getting ready to fight.
-This could be... said Tifa smiling, but I'll win!
The girl undid her bikini top and removed it. Kiba jaw dropped to the ground, feeling a nosebleed coming (even if the blood was feeling and urge to go DOWN rather than UP)...(lol).
-Oh, Kiba, you can't resist a bra-naked girl? Teased Tifa walking to the flag.
Kiba shook his head and closed his eyes. In an instant, he took off his shorts and threw them on the sand, revealing... everything to the girl. Of course, Tifa's reaction was the same. Both were stunned on place.
During that time, everyone was resting from the race on the beach... except Syng who was crying in his corner.
-I couldn't even run more than a few meters! He whimpered.
-Shut up! Said Misty, hitting him behind the head.
-Hey, what's that? Asked Tenten.
Even Shikamaru looked at the horizon where two small shadow were starting to grow.
-Its Kiba and Tifa-san, said Hinata with her byakugan.
She gasped.
-What's the matter Hinata? Asked Syng.
-They're both... naked? Said Neji.
-WHAT THE!? Everyone shouted at the same time, all getting up and watching the race.
Kiba and Tifa were both holding a part of the flag, running naked on the water trying not to look a the other's body.
-It's a fight between cats and dogs... explained Neji.
-Yeah, but why the nakedness? Asked Ino. I always knew that Kiba was a pervert...
-And for Tifa? Said Sakura.
-Trust me, she doesn't have anything to hide! Laughed Syng.
Both the girls start blushing since both had seen the... assets of the girl. Everyone was silent, a few meters and both ninjas would put their feet on the sand... but then... boom.
-What!? Said Tifa in the air, getting thrown by the explosive tag.
As both ninjas fell on the sand of the beach, the flag slowly danced in the air... getting down... on Shikamaru's nose.
-Winner: Shikamaru! Said Misty.
-What?! Both shouted Kiba and Tifa, getting up.
Some swords were hiding the parts of both ninjas as Syng was between them.
-How come he won! Shouted Kiba behind the swords.
-How come you're both naked? Asked Ino.
-Shikamaru wasn't eliminated from the race by any special explosive tag. He didn't drown of fell into water... he simple stayed here, and he have the flag has everyone is disqualified, explained Misty. So he won.
-That's... not troublesome, smiled Shikamaru in laziness...
Kiba and Tifa fell on the ground (the swords followed their movements to act like censors) crying.
Akamaru ran to Kiba with a pair of boxer in his mouth.
-Akamaru, why do you have my boxers?
The boy looked down himself, seeing he had forgot his swimming suit in the little island. He blushed to a darker red than his sensei's eyes. He ran with the dog in haste in the little cabin while Tifa was still crying on the ground.
-ITS UNFAIR!! She shouted.
Tenten and Hinata got near Ino and Sakura.
-Why, its true that she's got some assets, whispered Tenten to the girls.
-Stop looking, pervert! Shouted Tifa while punching Shikamaru.
Everyone changed themselves and starting walking to Konoha. Slowly and all together. Syng and Neji were helping Lee walking a little bit, Kiba was still blushing. Shino and Misty were a little bit behind talking to each other.
-What are they saying do you think? Asked Ino to Hinata with a smile.
-I really d-d-don't know said Hinata, still blushing with flashes of a naked Kiba which a floating sword has only clothes.
Shino and Misty, both silent and now fully dressed (which mean really dressed with plenty of clothes) walked silently, not listening to the conversation of the others.
-You know... it was fun seeing you smile and laugh, started Shino, looking at the ground.
-It was fun smiling and laughing... I'm not used to do that...
-Why aren't you?
-I didn't have a real reason to laugh and smile...
-What made you change, then? Asked Shino.
-Maybe its Konoha... maybe it's the exam... or the crossroad... or maybe its someone I met, she smiled behind her scarf.
They got to Konoha by nightfall, everyone went their own way, smiling and laughing about the day until only Shikamaru, Syng and Kiba were together and Ino, Tenten and Tifa. For them, the day wasn't finished just yet...
