[This is a brief camera-testing for the episode where Naruto gets the Third Hokage to give him and his team a more dangerous mission.]
"Well?" Sasuke asked as he looked at the camera-man while the camera focused on him. "Is it on?"
"Yep," Answered the camera-man as he zoomed in and out at Sasuke. "Start talking. Let's see if this camera is able to catch your voice in high quality."
"Okay . . . What do I say?" Sasuke asked, creasing a brow as he stuffed his hands into his pockets.
"Anything. Say whatever you like."
"Fine. Okay, let's see . . ." Sasuke trailed off, pondering on what to say. He looked into the camera as something came into mind. "Tomatoes are delicious and very good for you."
"Perfect." The camera-man said as he replayed the short video of Sasuke stating something about tomatoes. "The high quality of audio seems efficient enough. Let's try movement. Just walk over to the middle of the room and dance."
"Dance?" Sasuke repeated slowly, frowning. "You're . . . kidding me, right?"
"Nope. I am not."
"No, I think you are."
"No, I'm not."
"Yes, you are."
"Oh, just do it, Sasuke!" Called the actor for Third Hokage, Sarutobi. "Your mission right now is to dance!"
"Are you guys trying to destroy my dignity?" Sasuke retorted. Suddenly, Hayato Date walked onto set, eating a blueberry muffin.
"Do it." Hayato ordered lowly, then walking away as if he was never there. Sasuke's gaze slowly traveled back to the camera from watching Hayato leave.
"Must I?" Sasuke growled, his eyes narrowing.
"Yes, you must." The camera-man said. You practically hear the smugness in his tone.
"Fine!" Sasuke growled, throwing his arms up in the air in defeat. He stomped towards the middle of the set, abruptly turning around to face the camera. Sasuke crossed his arms stubbornly over his chest in a superior manner as he just scowled at the camera, not moving an inch.
"Well?" Sarutobi asked, his brows furrowing.
"I'm not dancing." Sasuke retorted lowly.
"Oh, come on! What's so wrong with dancing?" The camera-man asked, making the camera zoom in on Sasuke.
"No dignified male is stupid enough to start dancing like an idiot!" Sasuke snapped. Suddenly, Naruto glided onto the stage, looking as if he was doing the Waltz with an imaginary friend. He had earphones in his ears that seemed to be on full-blast as he did the Waltz with his 'friend'.
" A whole new world! A new fantastic point of view! No one to tell us no! Or where to go! La, di, da, di, daaa !" Naruto sang as he glided off of the set to only he knows where. Sasuke's eyes followed Naruto in disbelief until Naruto was no longer on camera. When Sasuke regained his composure, he said:
"See? As I said before, no dignified male is stupid enough to start dancing like an idiot!"
"Come on, Sasuke! Have fun once in awhile!" The camera-man said. "You're such a stick-in-the-mud!"
"That is not true." Sasuke retorted. "And, anyway, I don't need to be a fun person to survive in life."
"True . . . But, only a real man is capable of having fun once in a while." Sarutobi interjected, a mischievous glint could be seen in his eyes even from where he sat. Sasuke looked at Sarutobi through the corners of his eyes.
"Oh?" Sasuke said skeptically. "What makes you say that?"
"Well," The camera-man began, playing along with Sarutobi who winked at him. "Itachi may be known for being a serious guy, but he is known for also being a very fun guy when he wants to be. However, you seem to be overly serious . . ."
"Uh, have you not seen me laughing in some of the bloopers?" Sasuke drawled in a blunt tone.
". . . Touché . . ." The camera-man murmured.
"Well, if Itachi is known for being a fun guy at some points . . ." Sasuke trailed off as his gaze lowered onto the ground bitterly. Sudden determination crossed his features. "Then, I'll be more of a fun person than him!"
Silence followed after Sasuke's mini-speech as everyone waited for what Sasuke was going to do next.
"Um . . . Aren't you going to do something . . . fun?" Sarutobi asked. Sasuke scowled at him in reply, and then he shrugged his shoulders.
"There! I danced!" Sasuke said.
"You did not dance! All you did was shrugging your stupid shoulders!" The camera-man exclaimed, pointing an accusing forefinger at the young Uchiha.
"Well, my shrug was an original dance move." Sasuke said in monotone, shrugging once again.
Suddenly, Sakura strode onto the set. She looked curiously at the camera which zoomed in on her.
"Hey, what are you guys doing?" She asked with interest in her tone.
"A brief Camera-Testing, but Sasuke's won't help me properly." The camera-man answered, then zooming in on Sasuke who was mouthing 'I'll kill you' at him.
"Tch, he wants me to dance. Can you believe that? Me, Sasuke Uchiha, actually dancing like an idiot." Sasuke scoffed, earning a confused look from Sakura.
"Kenyo wants you to . . . dance?" Sakura asked, referring to the camera-man by his first name.
"It's just for a brief and minor testing! Ugh! Sakura, can you dance for me since Sasuke is too chicken to do so himself?" Kenyo complained, making Sakura giggle.
"Well, I guess I can." She answered, making Sasuke look at her in bafflement.
"Wha- Are you serious? You're actually going to dance for a stupid camera-testing?" Sasuke exclaimed, exchanging quick glances between Kenyo and Sakura. The beautiful girl with short pink tresses shrugged in reply.
"What's so bad about it?" Sakura asked, her eyebrows furrowing. Sasuke stammered on an answer.
"U-Um . . . Well . . . ! There's no music! How can you dance without music?" Sasuke exclaimed, putting his hands on his hips.
"Did somebody say music?"
Sasuke and Sakura jumped in a start due to the fact Kakashi appeared behind them, carrying a trendy boom box on top his shoulder. Immediately, Sasuke turned around to face Kakashi.
"Don't you even-"
It was too late. With a mischievous grin concealed by his mask, Kakashi pressed the 'power-on' button, making 'Party Rock Anthem' by LMFAO play full-blast throughout the entire set. Sasuke repeated slapped his forehead with his palm as Kakashi bopped his head to the beat and as Sakura began to dance.
Instantly, several members of the cast and crew of 'Naruto' ran onto the set and started dancing around Sasuke, who was still slapping his forehead with his palm. Naruto was still waltzing with his imaginary friend and Kenyo soon joined the dancing.
Somehow, Sakura managed to take hold of Sasuke's hands and make him move against his will. Unable to resist any longer, Sasuke sighed in defeat and danced with everyone else.
When Hayato came at the last minute, he merely chuckled at the dancing and ate another blueberry muffin.
"Everyday I'm shufflin'!"
