TEAM NINJA, TOTAL FIFTEEN

CH 2

USS LEXINGTON.

Beside all of the ninja's beds was a package containing gifts such as: a iPod, video games, and other gifts fitting with their personality. For example: Rock Lee was also given weights. While Sakura was given make up and what not.

The iPod was able to carry 500 songs on it and so far 100 songs was already downloaded into the iPod. The gift givers did that so as to start the ninja's out. It also came with a paper displaying a website that could give them more songs. The songs that were put on each ninja's iPod is different. The songs basically display their personality. For example: Gaara, Sasuke, Kiba, Shikamaru, Kankurou, Neji would have heavy metal, or hard rock. Ten-ten, Temari, and Chouji would have punk rock. Rock Lee, Sakura, Ino, Hinata, and Naruto would have pop, pop rock, pop r&b and every thing else with pop in it. Along with love ballads. And then Shino would have r&b, soul, hip-hop, and rap on his iPod.

Because Gaara rarely sleeps even if the demon is no longer inside him, he constantly moves about the night. He was quick to take enjoyment out of the iPod that was given to him. He already downloaded fifty new songs throughout the night. Not only that, but while listening to the songs his head would begin to bob to the music, then he would bob his head harder, till finally he was jumping around banging his head to the music. He was even able to remember some of the songs by heart already. Then at seven o' clock something happen. The sleep alarm went off in the whole house. Waking everybody up in a frantic.

"GET UP, GET UP, GET UP, IT'S TIME TO LISTEN TO WHAT I SAY! GET UP, GET UP, GET UP, IT'S TIME TO START THE DAY!"

Everybody was running in and out of restrooms except for Sasuke, Shino, and the Sand nin, they went as calmly as they usually go about things. It was a big hustle. The girls hogging the restrooms and the guys sticking up the restrooms. Then after about forty-five minutes they were all set. The ninjas stepped out onto the porch to see a seven passenger seat red van in front of them. They were all speechless.

"I'm speechless, how are we suppose to..." Sakura began but Ino cut her off.

"I thought you were speechless?"

"They sure as hell better not be expecting us to get our asses into that van that can fit no more than seven." Shino quietly said to himself. However, Kiba and Akamaru agreed with the boy with the black sunglasses.

Kakashi sensei stepped out of the van and opened up the door for the ninja's to get in.

"Go on, get in."

Naruto glanced at Kakashi given him slanted close up eyes and a stiff nose. However, they all walked slowly to the van trying to think of a way that fifteen teenagers can fit inside something this small. The only option was that they had to squeeze together inside and that's what they did. Ino's back was up against the window with her legs wide open with Sakura in between them. They were blushing furiously at one another.

"Too bad this wasn't me and Sasuke two years ago." Sakura pointed out.

Sasuke sat in the very back in the middle of the seat. He was glaring at the way Gaara and Naruto were sitting. Naruto had his back on the seat with one of his legs over Gaara's neck. They were facing one another, blushing as well. Sweat was dripping down Gaara's head and neck. He could feel that he was having an erection. He only wanted to zip down his pants and stick Naruto where it needs to go. Sasuke glared and clenched his teeth tight. He pushed past all the bodies and grabbed onto Naruto's hand. Violently, Sasuke pushed Gaara off of Naruto. Gaara tried to grab hold of Naruto's hand but the sweat on his hands made the blonde boy slip away. When Gaara was no longer able to see Naruto he glared at Sasuke. Finally, he saw Naruto sitting on Sasuke's lap still blushing. Sasuke was holding on to the blue eye boy with both arms around the waist.

"Damn you Sasuke." A whisper escaped Gaara's mouth.

Rock Lee didn't know what was going on since his face was pressed hard against the window pain.

Shikamaru felt his hand on something but didn't know what it was. It felt like a small hot dog, but when he continued to move his hand about it, the item began to get hard and long and thick. Shikamaru's face turned a deep shade of red. He finally had the courage to glance up at what could be the owners. Kiba's face was as red staring wide eye at Shikamaru.

"Man, what a embarrassment." Shikamaru said turning redder.

The rest of the ride was filled with the teen ninjas screaming and moving about the van trying to make room. However, it did the opposite, it also made the van hotter, then what's worst is that Naruto accidently farted. That fart left everyone catching their breath for clean air. Kakashi was still his normal self and drove the van all the way to the airport while humming.

They were going to the airport because the fifteen ninjas were going to the USS Lexington in Corpus Christi, Texas. They were going to a leadership team work conference held just for them, there they would learn more about teamwork and leadership skills that was said to help them along later on in life. They would be staying on the USS Lexington ship which is claimed to be the most haunted ship in the world. It's nick name is the Blue Ghost because Japan thought they sunk it four times after they bombed it four times. The ship itself has sunk at least three times by Japan but it still came afloat. Nevertheless, the teens would be staying there for five days. They didn't have to worry about packing clothes since they would be given clothes as a gift once they go down to their bunks in the lower part of the ship.

They never rode on a plane before nor have they heard of one, but it was still interesting and tiring to be on one. They could tell when they were close to their destination because Kakashi told them that the ship was docking at the coast at the beach. Well, the plane was now flying over the beach towards the airport close by. Naruto had his face pressed up against the window pain. He thought it was beautiful. Sasuke had a warm impression on his face as he sat by Naruto. He knows that he's been a total ass but he was planning to make that up. He just needed time to think. A glare soon crept over Sasuke's eyebrows. He didn't know why Gaara was trying to reach in on Sasuke's territory but he would soon tell Gaara to back off. Calming down, he leaned his head on the seat to rest up a bit before they landed. Gaara was sitting next to Rock Lee whom was quiet the whole flight there. Gaara had asked what was wrong, but Lee didn't reply, just grunted. The red head sat with his arms cross and head downward towards his lap listening to his iPod. In fact, they all were listening to their iPods. Kakashi figured that they wouldn't forget those. Sakura was totally digging the songs she had on her iPod especially the love songs. Shino was also feeling his songs as he sat next to Kiba bobbing his head to a 50 cent song 'Many Men'. That was one of Shino's favorite songs. Kiba enjoyed his time next to Shino. The boy was so quiet that Kiba thought it was cute. Now and then they would play harmless games involving Kiba snatching Shino's glasses and hiding them somewhere on his body. Harmless.

Lee sat with his elbow propped up on the window sill leaning on his hand. Gaara knew that he hurt the bushy brow boy by calling out Naruto's name, but he truly did not want to stay in the same room as Rock Lee.

"The ocean is beautiful," Gaara quietly stated, "just like you." Lee didn't say anything. "Please don't be mad, I don't like it when you're mad at me." Which was true because when Lee was mad at him he would give Gaara the silent treatment. Sometimes Gaara didn't care for it but then he would soon want to hear Lee's voice. His voice would calm Gaara down in a way that Naruto's voice did. He sighed. "Lee-chun..."

Rock Lee cut him off rudely. "Why did you pick Naruto to bunk with you? Answer me that. What? Do you like him or do you just want to fuck him? Or is it a little bit of both?"

The light green eye boy bowed his head even lower giving Lee's his answer. Lee was now pissed.

"Fucker!" He spit out.

"What about you and my brother?" Gaara thought he should bring that up so as he won't get the blame, but it didn't work, nope, not on Lee-san.

"Don't even try it, there isn't shit going on between me and Kankurou. You can ask him for yourself." Lee yelled out. It was then that they both realized that every one was staring at them, except for Temari who was laughing. Kankurou was dumbfounded at the mention of his name, but once he found out the source, he rolled his eyes.

Sasuke knew it wasn't a good thing if Gaara and Lee were arguing because then it would spike the chances of Gaara coming over to Naruto stronger.

"Awe shit! If it ain't one thing it's another." Naruto glanced at Sasuke after he made that statement. He laughed at him and gave him a hug that would cheer him up, which it did since it was body to body contact. Soon the announcements came on telling the passengers to place their seatbelt on so as they can all land safely.

When they stepped off the plane Iruka met them at the pick up zone. Once they got outside they knew they were by the beach and coast, the smell of fish was everywhere. Iruka blushed at seeing Kakashi walk to the two van cabs waiting for the kids. But the blush and smile quickly turned to a frown once he saw Kakashi reading his novel.

'It would be nice if he would put that stupid heterosexual porn down once in a while.' Iruka thought, his eyebrow twitching at the irritation he was feeling.

The two van cabs were both able to hold at least eight people so the teens were glad to hear that they wouldn't be cramped up. Neji and Hinata both got separated allowing them to be in different cabs. Hinata happen to be in the cab in which Sakura was in. Not thinking anything would go out of the ordinary she sat by the pink haired girl. Hinata then faced towards the window to ponder. Sakura realized that someone was sitting next to her, she turned to look and saw it was Hinata. She stared at the girl for a moment. Glancing over everything that she was able to see on her body. For some odd reason Sakura imagine herself kissing Hinata. Hinata's face steadily blushing as Sakura nipped her neck with kisses of lust. Sakura then regretted saying that Temari was the only one other than Sasuke and Naruto's sex games that made her horny, Hinata did too.

Smoothly, Sakura scooted over to the brunette. She softly placed her hand on Hinata's thigh. Hinata was startle and embarrass that someone would touch her so intimate. Neji didn't even touch her like that, he had more respect for her. Hinata glared at Sakura.

With her soft voice she asked, "May I help you?"

Sakura just giggled a little and blew into Hinata's ear. Ten-ten watched shaking her head. Temari was in the other cab with Gaara and Kankurou. Ino sat beside Ten-ten.

"She's such a slut." Ino pointed out.

"And you're not." Ten-ten snapped at her. "If I'm not mistaken, you're also trying to lay up with my girlfriend. Along with Sasuke and even Shikamaru. I don't know who's more of the slut, you or her."

Ino just huffed at her since she knew Ten-ten was right. Rock Lee sat close to the window not bothering to speak with anyone. Shino was still listening to his iPod and Sasuke was sitting in the front passenger seat listening to his iPod as well. He was trying to calm himself down since Naruto was pushed to go into the cab with Gaara by Gaara himself.

'That fucking dick, I ought to slap the fucking shit out of that ass!' Sasuke thought. Sighing, he told himself to relax and count to ten, even though he knew that it wasn't going to help calm him down.

Hinata didn't mind that Sakura was touching her more sexual now. It felt too good. It wasn't really sexual, Sakura was just rubbing on Hinata's inner thigh. All the while Sakura was making herself horny and lustful. The two of them were at it the whole cab ride to the ship. In the other cab Gaara had his arm over Naruto's shoulder who was sleeping loudly on Gaara's lap. Drool dripped out of the blue eye boy's mouth. Temari and Kankurou poked at him for fun because when they did he would make the funniest noises. But then Kankurou poked him and yes, he made a funny noise that resulted in a fart. For the rest of the ride there they had to open the windows and wave the funk out.

Iruka and Kakashi led the ninja teenagers up the walkway towards the entrance of the Lexington ship. They all were fascinated to see so many people on the beach playing around. They all smiled at one another hinting that sometime they all had to hang out at the beach when they were given the chance to. When they go to the front entrance some lady gave them their name tags so as they would know that they are here for the teamwork and leadership skills. The ship was also a tourist area.

"Make sure you all be careful," Iruka started, "it is said that this ship is haunted."

Naruto got a little jumpy when Iruka said "haunted". "As in ghost, you mean?"

Iruka nodded his head. "Yep, this ship is the most haunted in the world. It was even on some television programs that you all don't know about. Like this one show called Unsolved Mysteries."

Gaara eyes were wide from the second he got out of the cab. There was water everywhere. He hated water, the only thing he does in water is bathe. Temari and Kankurou both know that water is Gaara's weak point. But then again he was also covered in sand because of the beach.

Together they stood in the middle of the ship. Iruka had the females while Kakashi led the males to their bunking areas. Iruka showed the girls their bunking room in the lower part of the ship and also the restrooms that also had the showers. What shock both the boys and girls was that the showers were open showers. In other words, no stalls or anything just shower hoes. Temari started laughing out of embarrassment. When the males found out about their restroom most of them were blushing from head to toe and was silent the whole time Kakashi gave them the tour of the upper part of the ship.

Soon they were all back in the center area of the ship from the main entrance.

"Tomorrow you will going on a scavenger hunt on this ship. You will be split up in groups of three, I will assign the groups. You will be handed a list that will contain the items you will need to find throughout the ship. Do not go anywhere alone. Use the buddy system. Even though I'm sure you can all take care of yourselves from people with no ninja qualities.

I will tell you more about the scavenger hunt tomorrow morning. Be out tomorrow up on the flight deck at ten o'clock am. Be there. No one shall be late..."

"That goes for you too, Sensei!" Yelled Naruto. The others laughed as Kakashi slightly blushed.

Iruka stepped in once he saw Kakashi lose his focus. "Any questions?" No one said anything, only exchanged glances. "Well, breakfast will be at ten-thirty, lunch will be at two, and dinner at ten at night. Lights out no later than eleven thirty. The scavenger hunt will begin tomorrow at three o' clock. And like Kakashi said we will discuss more about it tomorrow. The scavenger hunt is the first teamwork mission. Is that clear?"

They all nod their heads.

"Dismiss, the rest of the day belongs to you and remember what time lights out is. You can do anything except go exploring about the ship that wasn't already shown to you."

Sakura raised her hand. "May we go to the beach?"

Kakashi nodded his head. "If you would like to wear a bathing suit go down to your bunks where your gifts are awaiting you."

The girls didn't have to hear that twice. Kakashi was right. By the bunks of each female was a gift basket and within that gift basket was clothes and two bathing suits. One was a one piece while the other was a two piece. It didn't take long for them to change and run out of the ship's entrance down to the beach. The five females walked inline with one another as they watched a group of guys walk past them.

"Damn! These guys are hot!" Ino was quick to yell that out. However, Temari and Ten-ten were too busy paying attention to one another while Sakura seemed to be now interested in Hinata. Hinata soon left Sakura walking with the others as Hinata began walking with Neji.

"I think I'm starting to like her." Sakura said.

"No, I just think you want to have sex with her. It's lust not like. Besides, she's not interested in you, you have a better chance with me." Ino stopped walking to think about what she just said. "Eww, did I just say that to you?"

Sakura rolled her eyes. "Yes, you did and you make seem as if I'm ugly." Sakura tilted her head down to watch her feet play with the sand. She wore a pink two piece bathing suit while Ino were a purple two piece bathing suit.

"C'mon, let's just lay in the sand while I put some sun tan lotion on your back." Sakura nodded her head at Ino's statement. Ino led the pink haired girl to a shaded tree, Sakura laid herself on the sand upon her stomach as Ino began to rub the suntan lotion in.

Gaara looked over the railing of the walkway. He saw Naruto and Sasuke in the water near the ship. Naruto had his arms around Sasuke's neck kissing him while the taller brunette had his arms around Naruto's waist. The only thing Gaara could do was watch the two shirtless boys make out. He didn't want to go anywhere near the water, but he decided that it would be fine if he lay about the sand. When the red head looked over to the beach he saw Ino and Sakura sitting together.

"What? They're actually sitting together."

He then saw something that caught his eye. Rock Lee was playing some game with some guys by a net. There was a net in between two groups of boys and they would touch a white ball over the net constantly. When the ball hit the ground on one side, the opposite side would cheer. He was puzzle to know what Lee was up to, so he began to walk over to him. On his way over there he walked by Temari and Ten-ten.

"Aren't you on your period?" Temari asked Ten-ten.

"Yes, but I'm wearing a tampon."

"So, the sharks can still smell the blood in your pussy area. You're putting everybody else in danger!"

"Then fine, I won't go into the water." Ten-ten walked angry away from Temari.

"Ain't no bitch should be in no water when she's on her period, pad, tampon, or not."

Gaara shook his head as he watched his older sis catch up to Ten-ten. Signing, he continued to walk over to Rock Lee, when he did, Lee took one glance at him and that was it. Gaara knew fuzzy brows was still mad so he found a bench by the sidewalk near the stores and sat down to watch. Now and then his focus would go to Naruto and Sasuke. He hated being alone.

What was beautiful was when night fell, the ship would light up like a Christmas tree. The ninjas were walking up the walkway towards the ship admiring the lights for show. Sasuke had one arm around Naruto's shoulder as they walked together. Rock Lee still wasn't talking to Gaara but at least he was walking beside him. Sakura didn't bother to mess with Hinata anymore, she knew deep down she just wanted to have sex with the brunette. Besides, Hinata and Neji look good together. Ino was walking with Sakura quietly. Shikamaru was walking with Chouji now and then taking glances at Kiba who was walking with Shino and Kankurou.

"That's your fifth bag today, Chouji." Shikamaru scolded.

"I know and I usually eat ten, tell me about it."

Iruka and Kakashi were both sitting on a bench together looking over from the balcony of the ship at the ocean. Once again, Kakashi was reading that book. Iruka closed his eyes so as to concentrate on the smell of fresh salt water.

NOTE: Almost everyone is gay and /or bisexual or bicurious.
