A/N: …..Uuuuunnngggghh……Hello yet again, all you 'faithful' reviewers. I was AGAIN forced to update by one certain yellow thing, so here's my best. Really uplifted by the hits and alerts……:D ….this is a really crappy face, but I can't do a better one…..T-T Now for the fanfic…..
Everyone trembled at Rock Lee's somewhat…ravenous….gaze. The soda bottle, however, didn't move. He punched it with his best fist but he ended up stupidly injuring himself. While Lee and Ino was "Ow"-ing around the room, Shikamaru slowly emptied the soda bottle filled with sand. It made a substantial pile in the middle of the circle. Gaara grinned sheepishly.
Shikamaru glared at Gaara exasperatedly and used his shadow again to turn the now sand-less bottle towards the Sand-nin himself. Gaara's grin slid off his face in an amusing manner "…..Truth. And I'm NOT a wimp."
No one bothered to argue with him.
"……" Shikamaru grinned as he saw something in the glint of the light.
"How does your 'ai' kanji stay on your forehead at exactly the right spot?" he asked innocently.
Gaara's eyes narrowed. "That is a private matter, and therefore none of your buthinethh."
Kankurou and Temari winced. Then came the moment of realisation.
"Wait, what?"
"OH CRAP! DID YOU—THWITCH MY MAKE UP PEN FOR TOMATOETH--------oh thit."
"…Are you saying that you draw the kanji on your head everyday? And you made up that story to Masashi Kishimoto that you just lost it and sand came out of your head?"
"Yeth—I mean, It ith—I mean, That ith right—GAH! I MEAN--….."
After finding no vocabulary that he could use, he settled himself with a quiet-
"Mm hmm."
There was a delayed reaction in the room, when suddenly Neji broke it by doing a Juuken move in Gaara's back. Hinata, reading his movements, shot up and thwacked his forehead. Everyone else followed. By the time the group had finished with him, all that was left of the character was a large red smudge on his forehead. Hinata, who had an 'imprint of love' on her hand, was examining it intently.
"Looks like he didn't lie."
Everyone crowded around her.
Oh god.
"Oh yeah."
Not SO bad…..
"Mm hm."
Yeah, just get on with it……
"Gaara is definitely a certified madman….and a hippy?"
…….WHAT?!
Sand began to surround Gaara as his angry self emitted chakra out of his body. "What. Did you say??"
Kiba glanced at the sand slithering towards his body. "I said you were a hippy."
Naruto bluntly stated, "And a madman. I mean, who puts 'love' on the corner of the forehead just for publicity and style apart from a hippy?"
Gaara hung his head in shame as his sand retreated into his gourd. "But—"
Kankurou widened his eyes and thrust his hands over his mouth. "Thank you, Mr Hippy—uh, sorry, Gaara. Spin the bottle, now. You know you want to." He said hurriedly, wanting his life to be spared.
The bottle stopped.
Gaara sneered. "KANKUROU, I see……"
Kankurou regretted his actions a minute ago.
"……Truth. Whatever."
Gaara thought cleverly. He scratched his head.
"EW! LICE!" Ino screamed.
Gaara sweatdropped. "..No, Ino. No lice."
"but-…but-….bu…" she pointed at his head.
Naruto backed away. "MY GOD! BUGS LIKE THE COLOUR RED! BELIEVE IT!"
Shino thought awhile as the others clustered around Gaara, trying to thwack his head-again.
Red….huh?
Shino walked up to Gaara slowly and pick pocketed his eyeliner pen. No one noticed, but the 30 bugs that Shino had chosen to steal the pencil were permanently scarred by the other things that were in there. They would have to eat more of his chakra. Shino swept his hair away from his forehead as he got to work. He started humming.
"..who's that? Who's that?..who's that hiiiiiding, in the treeeeetop, it's that raaaascal, the JITTERBUG!" Shino warbled.
Hinata slowly looked back, her eyes wary and prepared for the worst. "OH, DEAR GOD, SHINO!" She fainted.
"OH DEAR GOD, SHINO'S SUNGLASSES ARE MOVING BY ITSELF!!"
Shino's glasses were moving indeed. But only with the weight of bugs on it.
"…….OH DEAR GOD, MY EYELINER PENCIL!"
Sasuke sweatdropped and punched Shino in the head, leaving his fist in the air even after Shino had whacked himself on the floor, therefore dislodging the bugs on his sunglasses. Or what WAS his sunglasses. It seemed that he had inexpertly coloured his sunglasses red. What was more of a serious matter was that Shino's sunglasses had broke and some pieces had got in his eyes. This made him have a spaz attack and he ran into the wall which he bounced back on. Hinata ran over to him.
"SHIIIIINOOOOOOOOO!" She hurtled towards him but stupidly tripped over him and her head went through the floor.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO –Control centre
Tsunade was drooling in her sleep, blissfully unaware that she had just flicked the switch that deactivated the barrier on the floor. Shizune suddenly jerked her head upwards, her head just touching the noise button.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO – Unidentified Room of Doom
"TSUNADE-SAAAAAAMMMAAAAAAAA!" Shizune screamed, her immense sound waves travelling through the microphone and reverberating throughout the hall. The microphone beeped in its loudness.
There was a slight groan, followed by a rustling noise, indicating that the Hokage had reluctantly got up. It would have all been fine were it not for the fact that she had a hangover.
"Uuunnggghhh……how are the brats doing?"
"They seem to be undertaking a game of Truth or Dare, but THAT'S NOT THE POINT!" Shizune yelled. "YOU HAD TO, AS WE SPOKE, WRITE A DETAILED REPORT OF THE BEHAVIOUR AND TEENAGE PERSONALITIES FOR YOUR LOTTERY MAGAZINE IN THAT ROOM! HAVE YOU ALSO REALISED-------"
"Yes. Shizune, I realise that I had deactivated the barrier on the floor. I also realised, if you were gonna say so, that you have flicked the noise button. I also realised, believe it or not, that a Gatsuuga, a Katon: Goukakyuu no Jutsu, a Nikudan Sensha, a barrage of kunai, a ridiculous amount of sand and Kankurou's puppets are coming for us. Wait."
The Fifth Hokage widened her eyes as the glass and plaster in the control room exploded while Chouji smashed the controls with Gaara helping him and the kunai and Kankurou's puppets pinned Tsunade and Shizune to the wall. Neji, Gaara and Sasuke, being the most fearsome, stepped out of the debris.
"…What's all this here….." they glared at the pair.
"Teenage Personality Observation Contest 2007?"
Naruto shoved Sasuke out of the way. "NOT. A good answer." Shizune glanced at her master. Tsunade nodded. They disappeared in a puff of smoke to the safety of the Hokage's office.
Hinata stood by Neji. "Damn….."
"Let's go this way!" Naruto said pointing down the corridor leading to darkness. The rest of the group followed.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO – the Hokage's office
Tsunade had, after escaping the murderous Genins and Chuunin, summoned the only Jounin that were available.
"So, how come you weren't on a mission, Kakashi?"
"That's for you to answer, Hokage-sama."
Kakashi was holding the closed book of Icha Icha Paradise while talking to the highest of authority in Konoha.
"Since you actually were a teacher of one of them, do you know where those 4 might be? They're around the same age and have stronger powers therefore will probably manage to mingle and settle down that group of brats. Kakashi, here is your 5-second mission. Find the-----"
"Did I hear another mission calling?"
The four girls Kakashi was meant to be finding were already in the office. A long, blonde-haired one with a long blue coat was standing in the middle with her hand on her hip, having spoken the above line. The long brown-haired girl that Kakashi knew was crouching down, having only just kept up with the other 3's teleportation. A short black-haired girl was leaning against the wall and another blond-haired girl with a spiky side-ponytail was standing, staring at the Hokage as well.
Tsunade, after doing a double-take, leant on her elbow sitting at her desk. "Are you all here then?"
"I wish I wasn't."
Tsunade ignored the sarcastic comment made by the short black-haired girl starting to pay some sort of attention to her and read out their names, one by one.
"Tilly."
The brown-haired girl nodded.
"Ro."
The spiky ponytailed girl grinned maniacally.
"Nat."
The short black-haired girl didn't move.
"Claud."
The blonde haired girl did a 'Nice Guy' pose. "What mission might you like us to do, Lady Hokage?"
"Before that. Who the hell are you guys?!" Shizune said.
"SHIZUNE!"
"…sorry. But who ARE you?"
Tilly spoke in a soft voice. "We are a group of neutral mercenaries that gather news and accomplish missions for other countries. Each member gathers news from a country to which they are always assigned to."
Shizune sighed in relief. "So I'm guessing, Fire, Earth, Wind and Water?"
Claud retaliated. "No. I am with the Sound, Ro's with the Wind, TILLY'S with Konoha and Nat's working on both Earth and……"
Shizune felt a sense of forboding. "and?"
"Akatsuki." Nat still had a bored look on her face as she fiddled with a bit of loose plaster on the wall. She looked up. "Give us our mission already. I'm tired."
Tsunade repressed her anger. "We have, sorry, had, 14 Genin and 1 Chuunin around about your age locked up in the Great Hall. They should be running down the corridor and almost coming up to here. Your job is to join them for a day and keep them out of the outside world. Or outside civilisation. Clear?"
"Clear." Nat chucked the tiny piece of plaster away.
"Go." The four ninjas teleported themselves to the corridor in which their client was talking about. Kakashi sighed in relief that they were gone.
"What is it Kakashi?"
"…..They're a bit different; but I think they can complete the mission." He walked out of the office, once again reading his porn.
I FINALLY UPDATED! Happy New Year to everyone, and yes, the explanation of the characters just now….They are me and all of my friends. If you look at CloodSama's "What Begins With Diet Coke" you'll get a clearer picture. I'm sure I can get Yellow not bugging me again for about a week. But by that time school would have started. Oh the crappiness of life.
