DISCLAIMER:I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE NARUTO CHARACTERS.

TEAM NINJA, TOTAL FIFTEEN

CH 7

ALL BOYS' STATE.

The memory was so clear. How could he possibly forget it? The towns people turning their back on him. He would cry, until tears would no longer stream down his rosy cheeks. The pain was now gone, but seeing them all leave made his heart skip. What if they don't come back? Then what? He'll be alone once again, with no friends or family. He knew that they would be getting on the plane to go to College Station, Texas for the competition. Hopefully, they would all do well. It was obvious that Sakura and Hinata would do well in the female section and for the guys; well, they were all smart in their own ways, especially Shino and Neji, Sasuke too.

Maybe if he worked hard he would get smart too. He wasn't dumb, he knew everything that he needed to know about fighting and then some, but...book smart, no, he wasn't good at. Kakashi had told them that they would be attending school after the two months ended. They would go to a high school and get one year of education there then come back to the Konoha and study and train some more. If they liked, when they graduate, they could go to college or a big time university. Sakura made up her mind already that she wanted to go to an five star university. She'll do it. That's one thing she's good at and that's keeping her word.

Sakura and Ino...hmmm. He sat on the couch trying to figure out their relationship, he wasn't stupid on that either. He knew SOMETHING was going on. But they hate each other, but then again he and Sasuke hate one another, and he and him have a relationship. It's kind of salty ever since he found out Sasuke freaked Sakura, but that was the past. Stay too focus on the past then the past will become reality. Maybe, who's to say.

Sakura and Ino. They don't really make a good couple. Sakura will be better off with Lee or even Temari, but Rock Lee is occupied right now and no longer loves Sakura. He cares about her, but that's about it.

He laid on the couch with his arms behind his head, thinking. Thinking was a verb that isn't able to be seen and wasn't then. A verb in which he doesn't do at all, it's rare to see him thinking.

It's funny because they all thought that they had their own little secrets but he knows about all of them. Isn't it obvious. There was a little lesbian chart with the girls in which no one knew of but themselves of course. Temari freaked Ten-ten and Sakura, who did Hinata, who did Ten-ten, who did Ino, who did Temari. He forgot when they all had their share of one another, but he does know they all did it. For one, they all confided in him. He could be trusted and they did trust him. Now he wondered wether Kiba and Shino hit it off. Shikamaru freaked Kiba, they both told him one night, though separately. He laughed, the stuff that he knew!

His stomach was against the couch, his bare stomach. He nevered thought it would be relaxing being totally nude. But then his thoughts began to wonder. What color were Sakura's eyes? Were they green or pink? Hmmm, what an intriguing question. He turned the TV on the discovery channel.

"How come every time you come around my London, London bridge wanna go down, like London, London..." Kiba sung the song with great enthusiasm as he and the other males unpacked their belongings in their new room in which they would be staying in for seven days. But he wasn't complaining, there was no need to, the hotel that they were staying in is the Hilton. Kakashi told them that it's the most popular hotel in America. It's worth it though, they were just all happy to get off that plane that they took to get to College Station.

College Station, Texas, home of Texas A&M University, one of the best universities in America, but the ten boys didn't know that though. The nin just knew that they would take the test there. They spent five hours of the day studying the questions on the cards. They would go to a sitting lounge in the hotel and rent it out to study. Because Naruto wasn't there they all could actually have quiet time, but then sometimes it was a little too quiet. Not quiet as in there weren't any noise, but quiet as in there weren't any Naruto noise. Sasuke often thought what his boyfriend was doing. He had no right to call him his boyfriend since they weren't really going out, but dating. Gaara, too, wondered what the blonde was doing all alone in the house. Kakashi had told the boys that they need not worry, that Iruka was going to check up on him now and then. He would even surprise the blonde to a ramen dinner.

Gaara set his gourd to the side in his hotel room. He and Lee were talking but it had nothing to do with their relationship. One night Gaara had asked him what he was feeling. But Lee only replied back that the feelings were neutral. So he didn't feel positive or negative about Gaara, he felt...nothing.

Kiba thought of this time as a way for him and Shino to bond. Shikamaru had tried to hint to Kiba that he wanted 'some', but Kiba turned him down. Besides, instead of focusing on him, Shikamaru should be focusing on Temari.

He put his hood upon his head and called for Akamaru to come with him down to the lobby of the hotel. The bottle water that they had for sale was freaking good! Each bottle was three dollars, but it was worth it. He got thirsty just thinking about it. He opened the door leading to the hallway.

"Come on, Akamaru, let's go."

Sasuke was already in the lounge with Shino and Neji studying. The others weren't late, they were early, that's all. It wasn't long before the other males were seen coming out of the elevator, Kiba with a bottle of water and Chouji with a bag of chips. There they would sit for five hours in silence reading the cards over and over again. Then in the last hour they spend asking each other random questions from the cards. The day was over.

Gaara spent his time at the lake where he felt more comfortable while the others with shopping or window shopping. There were plenty of stores on the side of the lake promoting sex. T-shirts that had sexual phrases on them such as: "silly faggot, dicks are for chick". Sexual, but hilarious at the same time, though none of them could talk except for Neji.

Lee spent the free time training and getting Gaara off his mind. The red hair was every where. It would be a while for Lee to get over him, but he could do it. It didn't take long for him to get over Sakura at all.

Kiba and Shino were in a toy store. They were suppose to be checking out the video games but they kind of got lost in the doll isle. The two of them stood silent looking the Barbie dolls.

"They say that Barbie is a good role model for young girls." Shino said.

"She's been a doctor, a airplane attendant, a nurse, a dancer, a singer, a model, a artist, a cook, a baby-sitter, and a mom." Kiba exclaimed. "How can she be a good role model when she can't even hold onto a job, and is with a different guy each time. Kin is no longer around yet he was the one who got her knocked up. That just shows that there are independent women out there." He pointed at the female dolls with babies yet with no man beside them. "See, all manless, yet that's the society of this generation."

Shino was stunned to hear Kiba speak like that, he sure did know a lot about dolls. Bug boy slipped his glasses from the tip of his nose. "Well." He said.

Chouji was in a candy store buying all the candy and ice cream he could eat. Shikamaru at the time, was leaning on a rail watching the hot girls that walked by in their bathing suits. There was even some suitable guys who looked good. He sighed. "Man, what a drag. Maybe on the seventh day I'll go out there on the lake and pull me a couple guys since I already had my share of a girl."

The bell to the candy store jingle as Chouji came out with bags and bags of food.

"We have to hurry back to the hotel so as the ice cream won't melt."

"Awe man!"

Sasuke stayed in the hotel trying to get a hold of Naruto but he wouldn't answer the phone.

"Dammit loser, answer the fucking phone." Still no answer. Giving up, he slammed the phone back onto the charger. "What could he be doing?"

Why eating ramen of course. Naruto sat at the kitchen table eating his third bowl of the soup. He was on his fourth bowl when the door bell ranged.

"Hold on, I'll be there in a sec!" He yelled with his mouth mostly full. He quickly got dressed from being nude. Who could be knocking on the door this early in the morning? He knew it wasn't Iruka because he already stopped by. Naruto got up and walked out the kitchen to the front door. He peeped through the peep hole. You never know what psycho could be on the other side. But then again it's not like Naruto wasn't able to take care of himself.

He roughly threw open the door. "Hello, stranger! How are you this morning!" His white teeth were shown as he grinned from ear to ear, but when he opened his eyes, he saw that it was Josh. Josh from the BUDDY retreat. Too bad, Naruto thought it wasn't someone important.

"Yes?" He said with disappointment in his voice. For some odd reason, he didn't really like Josh. The "Josh" sounded perverted. And how Naruto hated perverts.

"So I see that you're all alone, uh?" He looked around and took a step in. Naruto blocked Josh from getting in any further.

"Excuse you, but I didn't give you permission to enter."

Josh laughed. The laugh was..evil. Naruto glared at him, frowning. He guessed right.

"I don't need your permission," Josh took hold Naruto's left hand that was on the rim of the door way, "so get the hell out of my way." He picked Naruto up by the hand and threw him across the dining room as if he were a rag doll.

Josh brushed aside a strand of hair from his eyes. Placing his hands in his pockets, he walked in. He laughed again as he strolled up to Naruto whom was laying on the ground with the book case that was against the wall, now on top of him. Josh had to kick aside some of the books to get to the boy, but then when he saw Naruto laying there with the five hundred pound book case on him; he couldn't help but laugh.

"You're not the only with powers." He kneeled beside Naruto touching his warm soft cheek. "How are you feeling?"

Naruto didn't reply, he stared into Josh's cold eyes growling at him, teeth clenched and eyes changing. Who the hell was this guy to just burst into the fifteen ninja's house and take control of it? What did he want? Who did he want? Then all of a sudden, Naruto heard the phone ringing. His eyes glanced around for it. Josh saw what Naruto was looking for and got up.

"Are you waiting for someone?" Josh searched around for the phone. He could hear it ringing but couldn't see it anywhere. "Bastard ass of a phone." He walked down the stairs back to where Naruto and the bok case were.

He stood in front of the book case that was lifted. The blonde wasn't there. "Shit! Where'd he go?"

Naruto jumped from the ceiling fan and slammed toward Josh, but Josh quickly moved out the way grabbing Naruto's neck and throwing him towards the wall. But before Naruto hits the wall, Josh quickly gets behind Naruto kicking him in the back. A sound his heard. Naruto screams in pain. But he bites down on his lip making it bleed as Josh slams him into the ground, face first. The hard tile floor cracks.

"Damn, he's fast." Naruto mumbled on the floor. Blood was rushing out of his nose, turning the floor a stain red, similar to the color of Gaara's hair. "Gaara." He whispered.

"Stupid ass nine tail fox." Josh spitted out. At those words Naruto glanced up at the young adult.

"Who are you?"

Josh laughed. "Wouldn't you like to know? In America, those with power aren't called ninjas, only some. Most of us who are gifted are called mutants." he laughed again. "However, I'm not a mutant. I'm a fellow ninja from the Hidden Leaf Village, Konoha."

"With a name like Josh?" Naruto placed his hand upon his knee to steady himself, but Josh kicked him right back on the ground. Josh's foot remained on Naruto's head, smashing it more into the floor.

"My mom was an American."

"Was?" He mumbled.

"She died at the hands of the Nine Tail Fox. Funny? Isn't that you?" Josh placed himself over Naruto with his stomach resting on Naruto's back. He wasn't hesitant to grab Naruto's golden locks. "Are you a virgin?"

Naruto didn't reply, he was confused on why Josh asked that. All of a sudden Naruto felt weak, so weak that he dropped his own head back upon the ground, Josh still holding his blonde hair. With his head cocked to the side on the floor, he stared out the window as he heard Josh unzip his pants. He could feel his own being tugged off. He didn't know what was happening, though he knew something awful was going to, but he couldn't fight. Why? He asked himself. As he stared out the window at the realization of what was going to take place, tears silently fell upon his face, down his now pale cheeks.

It was now the third day and Sasuke still hadn't gotten a hold on Naruto. The others knew that he was not at ease, but they didn't want to bother him with it. Instead, the males continued to study quietly. Neji noticed that Kiba was spending a lot of time in Shino's hotel room. It was pretty obvious that they liked one another, but damn; everyday? The two would often go out to lunch together as well. Then they would go to the lake and stay there for hours. Not that Neji was analyzing them, he was just watching them intently.

Shikamaru wasn't seeing Temari as often. When they do meet up, all that takes place is sex. However, when Neji and Hinata got together it was love that bonded them, not sex. Kankurou hadn't been heard from in a while, it was even thought of that he was with someone, but no; he spent most of his time comforting Lee. Claiming that Lee can and could and should find someone better than Gaara. That Gaara wasn't worth the time. Lee took Kankurou's words to heart and mind because he doesn't pay much attention to Gaara anymore.

Sasuke listen as the phone ranged on the other line.

"Come on! Pick up." He pleaded. All he wanted was to hear his lover's voice.

He hung up the phone. Naruto laid in his bed with the sheets half way off him. There was dry blood under neath him where he had bled from his rectum. He could hear the shower running, it's been running for the past two hours. The blonde was planning on washing himself but once he laid upon the bed, he buried his face in the pillows to cry. He didn't cry aloud, what if someone heard him? No, he cried silently so as no one would know what took place yesterday afternoon.

He set up in a slow way to inform his mind that his body was weak and dirty. It was disgusting to think of what happen. He was disgusting. That's why he started the shower; so as to clean himself up. Wash away the dirtiness on his body. To wash away the dry blood that lingered around his most sensible area. No longer was he innocent; no longer was he a virgin.There's no way he could tell the others what happen. They would see him as a freak. Laughter would be heard about the halls on how Naruto wasn't able to protect himself. He stepped into the shower closing the curtain.

"He was too powerful; he was stronger than me. How could I protect myself." He glanced down at his hands. They were filthy, he quickly struck them under the water to get clean. He then put his whole self under the water to get clean.

Once again, he was alone. What happened to him doesn't ever happen to people in Konoha. Does it? He never heard of such things happening to others. Was he the first? He was ignorant to what took place yesterday. Yes, it is true that he was violated sexually, but he didn't know what to call it. Suddenly, it hit him, his eyes got wide then closed bearing tears. He clenched his fist to his side. He had been raped.

He fell to the floor of the shower stall and hugged himself.

"Bastard! I'll kill you!" He whispered with anger. "I'll kill you!"
