Obito slowly opened his eyes at the sunlight that was hitting the tent. He sat up and stretched his arms, yawning. He grinned as he opened his mouth and began to sing in an off-key voice, "It's a beautiful mooorrning! The birds are siiiinging! It's time for all of us to get up and-"

"SHUT UP" Came the shouts of Obito's still drowsy team-mates, one of them throwing a sandal at his face.

"…Okay." Obito meekly replied as the sandal slid off his throbbing face. He sunk back down into his sleeping bag, staring at the ceiling of the tent for an hour before Yondaime woke up and rose out of his sleeping bag.

"About time!" Obito said loudly as he sat up.

"Obito, please don't sing so loudly in the morning again. Some of us need to sleep in a bit while we're here and it wakes up the other campers too."

"Yeah, sure." Obito replied. "So are we gonna go swimming today?"

"You bet we are," Yondaime grinned. "Right after breakfast!"

Kakashi woke up a short while later when Yondaime finished making breakfast. He was emerging from the entrance flap of tent when he suddenly jerked back a little. He tried to move forward again but was prevented from doing so. He slowly tried to look up at the door flap of the tent and…

"Uh-oh, looks like you've got your hair stuck in the tent zipper there, Kakashi," Yondaime chuckled, pointing at the top Kakashi's silver bushy hair that was indeed caught in the tent zipper. "Don't move, okay? I'll just go get the scissors form the car just in case. I'll try to get your hair uncaught from there, but if worst comes to worst, we can just snip that bit of hair off."

Yondaime quickly went to the car to unlock it and began his search for the scissors in the glove box.

Obito burst out laughing as he saw Kakashi stuck in his half crouched position, wearing a very displeased look on his face, all because of a little bit of hair caught in a tent zipper.

"Shut up, Obito!" Kakashi snapped as he suddenly jerked his head forward angrily, ripping his hair from the zipper. With his hair no longer caught and with Kakashi still in the half crouched position, along with him still feeling a little groggy from the small amount of sleep he received, Kakashi could not find himself to keep his balance in the awkward position he was standing in and a result, he fell over flat on his face.

Obito fell of the bench laughing at that point, unable to contain himself despite knowing how angry Kakashi would be at him. Then, with all the dignity one could muster after having their hair caught in a tent zipper and falling flat on their face right afterwards, Kakashi picked himself up off the ground, patted the dirt off his clothes, and as though nothing had happened, walked over to the picnic table with his head held high and seated himself down and casually studied the features of a nearby cedar tree.

Obito was still rolling on the ground laughing when Yondaime came back with a pair of scissors. He looked at where Kakashi's had been trapped moments ago and saw only a small silver tuft of hair caught on the zipper.

"Well, I guess that's another way of getting uncaught," Yondaime shrugged, pocketing the scissors and approaching the picnic table. He turned on the small camping stove and prepared some bacon and eggs.

Rin woke up half way through breakfast, looking quite tired.

"Good morning, Rin!" Yondaime chirped cheerfully.

"Good morning," Rin replied as she yawned. "Sorry I woke up so late. I was really bushed."

Obito started, "Man Rin, you should've been up earlier so you could've seen what happened with Kakashi-"

"Obito," Yondaime cut in, looking warningly at the boy, who immeditly shut his mouth..

"Why? What happened?" Rin asked, curious with what Obito had been blathering out a few seconds ago.

"Nothing happened. Absolutely nothing. Kakashi replied sternly, closing the topic.

Rin said nothing more as she sat down to have her breakfast.

"Hey guys," Rin started. "I noticed some grey fur caught on the tent zipper and it's kind of worrying me. Do you think an animal's been trying to get into the tent or something? It could be really dangerous-"

Obito snorted before he once again burst out into fits of laughter.

"What? What did I say?" Rin asked, looking quite confused.

"That's not animal fur, Rin." Yondaime answered, begining to chuckle.

"Then what is it-" Rin began before she saw the look Kakashi was giving Obito. "Oh...you know Kakashi, if you just trimmed your hair down a little bit, it probably wouldn't get caught in the zipper like that. I could trim it for you if you-"

"No thank you." Kakashi replied curtly, immidietely shutting a sheepish-looking Rin up.

Clearling the tension, Yondaime asked, "So Kakashi, how did you sleep last night?"

"Terribly. Thanks to your silly marshmallow game, I constantly felt like I was going to throw up, so I couldn't fall asleep for most of the night."

"That's odd. I had a ton of marshmallows in my mouth and I didn't feel very sick for long last night," Obito said, calming down from his laughing fits. "In fact, I had a great sleep! I feel refreshed and ready to do anything!"

Kakashi quickly threw an envious glare at Obito as Yondaime made a motion with his hand to tell Obito to stop talking about it.

"Gee, I'm real sorry to hear that, Kakashi." Yondaime said sympathetically. "I won't make you play Chubby Bunny again or any other game that may make you feel sick, I promise."

After the shinobi finished their breakfast and cleaned up their dishes, they were ready to embark upon their adventure to the lake.

"Alright guys, so we can all get changed in the tent one at a time and we'll meet each other at the lake down that path." Yondaime instructed, pointing down the lane out of their campsite where the path lay. Got it?"

"You got it!" Obito saluted.

"First dibs on changing!" Rin called out.

"Second dibs!" Obito shouted.

"Whatever." Kakashi shrugged.

Yondaime chuckled, "Looks like I'm last then."

5 minutes later, Rin came out in a purple two-piece bathing suit, causing a cheeky Obito to whistle and make cat-calls.

"Oh, grow up!" Rin huffed angrily before she quickly made her way to the lake.

Obito dashed inside of the tent and took only a minute to put his orange swim trunks on. He rushed back out and followed Rin down the gravely road towards the dirt path leading to the lake.

"Hey Rin, wait up!" Obito called out.

"How did you get changed so fast?"

"It's easier with swim trunks I suppose." Obito shrugged, unsure himself.

Satisfied with the answer, Rin put her vexed air back on and quickened her pace.

When they reached the end of the short dirt path, the lake and scenery met their eyes.

"It's beautiful…" Rin breathed, forgetting why she was angry as she gazed at the mountains and trees surrounding the shining blue lake. Small bits of fine gravel covered the shore of the lake like a small beach. Only a few people were swimming in the lake and resting on the shore, making the setting look friendly and warm. "Look at it, Obito! It's like something out of a book or a dream-"

"Last one in is a rotten egg!" Obito shouted as he ran onto the shore and leaped into the lake.

"Way to spoil the moment, Obito." Rin groaned angrily, but she quickly dismissed the thought and slowly waded her way into the lake.

Obito suddenly stopped splashing around in the water and looked as though an idea struck him. "Hey! Kakashi's actually going to come down and swim, right?"

"Yeah, he should be since sensei wants him to participate in every activity." Rin replied, confused at why Obito looked excited. "So...?"

"So, with Kakashi coming down to swim, that means he can wear only swim trunks, which means…no mask!"

Rin gasped, "You're right! We can finally see what Kakashi looks like without his mask! He must be really cute and..."

Rin trailed off and squealed at the thought of a mask-less Kakashi while Obito looked on and sighed, "Girls…"

They heard footsteps and they looked up; The moment of truth.

"Kakashi! You…-" Rin stammered at a loss for words as she stared at the silver-haired boy.

"Are still wearing your mask…" Obito finished lamely.

"Of course I'm still wearing my mask." Kakashi scoffed as he walked into the lake.

"I can't believe it! You're devoid of all clothes except your swim trunks, and you still wear a mask!" Obito cried in frustration. "Why?"

"Because I can."

"That's not a proper answer!"

"Hey guys, I'm here!"

When they heard that voice, Obito, Kakashi, and Rin looked up from the water to see their sensei had arrived in…a !

No, he wasn't actually. Sorry if there are bad images swimming around in your head now.

What Yondaime really came dressed in was an old-fashioned one-piece body bathing suit covered in alternating thick bands of red and white, making Yondaime look like the biggest dork at the lake.

"What the hell of a kind of bathing suit is that?" Obito cried as he gawked at his sensei.

"He looks so…weird!" Rin whispered to her team mates.

"Great. Everyone's staring," Kakashi grumbled as the swimming and sunbathing campers stared at Yondaime's ridiculous swimwear. "Let's ditch this place and quickly get back to the-"

"How's the swimming going, guys?" Yondaime cut in as he walked into the lake, the campers still staring, Obito and Rin looking the most horrified of them all.

"Just pretend that we don't know him." Kakashi whispered to Rin and Obito.

"The swimming's great, sensei!" Obito suddenly replied, "But why are you dressed in such a stupid-looking swimsuit?"

"It's not stupid!" Yondaime cried indignantly, looking quite offended. "It's the most original swimsuit here at the lake!"

"Too original…" Rin mumbled.

"Well, you guys are on your own now." Kakashi said as he swam off in the opposite direction.

"Hey Kakashi! Where are you swimming off to?" Yondaime called out.

"Who the hell are you?" Kakashi called back before he swam off quickly.

"What's up with him?" Yondaime asked, clearly confused.

"He's pretending that he doesn't know you." Rin replied.

"Really…does this swimsuit honestly look that bad on me?"

Kakashi swam off to another part of the lake, not too far off from where his team was. He spotted another shore along the edge of the lake and swam towards it. As he walked up on the small deserted shore, he spotted something half hidden in the bushes. Kakashi approached the object and pushed the obscuring branches away. The object was an old, small, wooden, beat-up rowboat. Deciding that it was an unwanted boat abandoned years ago by somebody long gone, Kakashi dragged the boat to the shore and hopped in.

"Well, this will probably be the most exciting thing on this whole lake." Kakashi said to himself as he took the one paddle that wasn't broken in half and attempted to paddle out farther onto the lake. For a good twenty minutes, Kakashi sat in the boat, quietly thinking about things until a loud shout, that sounded as though it belonged to an aged hillbilly, rang from the shore he took the boat from and interrupted his thoughts.

"Hey you! What do ya think yer doin' with mah boat?!"

Kakashi stood up abruptly as he saw an old scraggly-looking man with a tangled beard and dirty worn-down clothes shaking his fist in the air.

Now the boat that Kakashi was in was, like the crazy old man, old and and little worn down, so as Kakashi abruptly stood up in the boat, his foot broke through the bottom.

"Oh shit…" Kakashi cursed as water started leaking into the boat.

"Ya bring mah boat back in now, ya hear me? Ya bring it in now or I'll beat ya good next time I see ya walkin' on shore!"

"I'll bring it back in a minute!' Kakashi called back. He knew the old man would be furious when he saw the hole in his boat, but he knew he had to bring the boat back before it sank. He began to lower himself back down to paddle the boat, but as he did, the weight of his feet made another hole in the bottom of the boat. Kakashi jumped back up in surprise, causing a third hole, pulling his foot down.

"What kind of a boat is this?" Kakashi cried angrily as he tried to pull his foot out free from the hole. He succeeded, only to fly back on his bottom, which caused another hole in the boat. The old boat sunk within a matter of seconds, pulling Kakashi down with it as it caught onto his swim trunks. He quickly tore himself away and swam up to the surface, gulping for air.

"Ya sunk mah boat, ya damn pesky lil' brat! Ya sunk mah only means of transportation across the lake! If I could swim, I'd swim after ya and skin ya alive! I'll kill ya the next time I see ya! Yer dead, I tell ya, dead! Ya hear me, boy?"

Kakashi quickly swam away from the scene and sight of the old man and swam towards the shore where his team was waiting.

"Where were you?" Obito asked. "You missed me catching a fish with my bare hands!"

"Congratulations." Kakashi commented indifferently.

"No really, where were you?" Yondaime asked.

"I was just swimming off in a different area of the lake."

"Okay, but next time try to stay in sight so I can see you."

"Okay." Kakashi nodded as he rose from the water. "I'm done swimming, so I'm going back to change now if you don't mind."

"Um, Kakashi? I think you're forgetting something." Yondaime snickered.

"What?"

Rin looked at Kakashi and suddenly blushed profously. Obito looked at Kakashi and his jaw dropped.

"What? What?" Kakashi demanded, not seeing the problem. Horror suddenly struck him and he reached his hands up towards his face.

No, the mask was still there. Still confused, he once again cried "What?" Yondaime made a downward pointing motion with his finger, causing Kakashi to look down. When the boy looked down, he saw that his swim trunks were no longer with him. Kakashi turned red as a cherry and quickly lowered himself back down in the water.

"Don't look! Don't you dare look!" He commanded as he covered himself up despite being hidden in the water. The people on the beach looked up from what they were previously doing and looked directly at Kakashi.

"What does 'Don't look' mean to you people?" Kakashi shouted.

"Kakashi, never shout 'Don't look' out loud when you're in a situation like this. It always encourages everyone to look." Yondaime laughed. "What happened to your swim trunks?"

"I could ask the very same thing." Kakashi growled. He looked out towards the lake and he thought he saw a part of his blue swim trunks floating on the water.

"…Crap!" Kakashi growled to himself. "They must have gotten completely torn off by a part of the boat when I got caught on it."

"My towel's up on the shore if you need to cover yourself to get back up to the campsite." Yondaime offered.

"Could you bring it here please? I don't want everyone staring at me as I get out of the water."

"C'mon! Who here would want to stare at your scrawny little ass anyways?" Obito laughed.

"Obito, be nice! Laughing at the misfortune of others is rude and dishonourable." Yondaime scolded, lightly knocking the boy upside the head. "Now would you kindly go get Kakashi my towel?"

"Aw, fine." Obito grumbled, picking himself up out of the water and fetching Yondaime's towel. He walked back into the lake and handed the towel to Kakashi, snickering. Kakashi gave an angry "Thanks." as he quickly snatched the towel from Obito and wrapped it around himself in a flash when he raised himself out of the water. The people on the beach stared at Kakashi as he walked out of the lake and to the path leading to the campsites.

"I don't think I've ever seen Kakashi's face turn that red before." Rin commented, breaking the long silence between Team Yondaime.

"Getting sick last night, humiliation from getting his hair caught in a tent zipper, and now this. Seems like Kakashi's getting the raw end of the deal with camping here so far," Yondaime sighed. "So let's try to be real nice to him and try to make this trip more enjoyable for him, okay guys?"

"Okay." Both students replied, nodding.

The three shinobi splashed and swam about in the lake for hours until their stomachs began to grumble for lunch.

"I don't know about you guys, but I'm starting to feel real hungry." Yondaime announced, raising himself out of the water.

"I'm hungry too!" Obito piped up.

"Alright then. We'll head back to roast our lunch!"

"Roast?" Rin said in confusion.

"We're having hotdogs, Rin." Yondaime chuckled. "They're tasty and the ideal food for camping."

"What are we waiting for then? I'm starving!" Obito cried as he hopped out of the water.

The three of them headed back to the campsite, dripping wet but content, and Obito thinking all the way back to the campsite; "I can't wait to write in my jounal tonight about Kakashi losing his swim trunks at the lake!"

Hope I didn't cause any permanant mental damage to your brains or disturbing images to swim around in your heads with this chapter. Please review!
