DISCLAIMER: No, I don't own Naruto. Which totally sucks ass by the way. -runs away and cries-
"Can't gasp breath!!" I groaned, an elbow in my ribs, a foot in my face, a fist in my stomach, and a hand grabbing my ankle. Bunches of people that I didn't know were piled on top of me. I struggled to protect it, even though I didn't know why. Finally, I gave up and threw it across the field. They scrambled up, or at least tried to. We were all in such a knot that it was pretty hard to. Finally, after a few more minutes of scrambling to get free, most of them wanting to get it and claim their spot, but some just aggravated that we were even doing this that would include me, we were all standing up and dusting ourselves off and complaining about the grass stains on our pants.
What were we doing exactly? Playing football, or to be more precise, trying to play football. One problem, we all sucked. And most of us hated it which, once again, included me. The "it" I was referring to was of course the football, and "they" were the opposing team. All my friends and Jason, my bf were on the sidelines cheering me on like a bunch of losers. Oh wait, they are a bunch of losers!! Well, that explains that!!
Skipping over to Jason and brushing my black hair back behind my ear, even though it fell right back where it was, I smiled. "Hello, honey pie!! Didja watch me?"
He ruffled my hair. "Yes, darling." He rolled his eyes.
I kissed him on his nose lightly. "Awww!!" I squealed girlishly, "I wuv you snookems!!"
He rolled his eyes as usual. "Yes, now, once again, Will. You. Stop. Calling. Me. That!!" he exclaimed with gritted teeth.
I pretended to be sad. "You don't like it, sweety-bear?"
"No!"
I grinned and went back to being me. Turning to Jake and Kit. "So, how'd I do?" They cracked up.
"You did… um... great…?" Kit said in between laughs.
I rolled my eyes. "Right. When eggplants dance!!" I scooped my backpack up from the bleachers and slung it over my shoulder. "I gotta go guys. I'll be late; mom wanted me home at two o'clock. Something about a dentist appointment of something, and she hates how long it takes to fill out the forms to let me out of school early. Stupid school system, I mean really, can't you just sign you name and the time you checked out like normal schools do?" I muttered, shrugging my shoulders as I complained.
"But you'll be ditching school!" Kit told me.
I grinned. "Yup!! My mom's cool, she doesn't care about stuff like that."
"Lucky! If my mom caught me ditching school she'd kill me!" Jake exclaimed.
"I know I am!! Yay me!!" then kissed Jason on the nose. "Bye-bye Jasie!!"
He rolled his eyes, but then noticed the bandage around my hand. "Hey, Nick, what happened?"
"Oh… well… I… tripped?"
He cocked an eyebrow. "You tripped?"
I nodded. I didn't really want to tell him about what happened; he'd probably think I was crazy or something!
"So… see ya guys later." I smiled and waved goodbye to my friends.
Walking back home, I looked at the bandage. It was still glowing yellow. That bandage, it almost scared me. It taunted me, told me that I was going crazy. And wasn't I? I mean, I just had a dream where I stabbed myself and Naruto wrapped it up with a bandage. And when I woke, I was wearing the same bandage and it was glowing! If I told anyone that, they'd probably think that I'd cracked. So, I decided to be quiet about it.
Looking up at the sky, I sighed. I still didn't know what had happened last night, and I was wondering if I would ever find out.
Probably not.
TT You live to bring me down, don't you?
Yup.
Anata wa bakamono desu.
Hey!! Look out!!
Suddenly, actually taking the "other me's" advice for once, there was a loud honk and the screeching of a car trying to turn, and I spun around to see a bright red Ford pickup heading straight towards me. I stood there for a moment, frozen. I was telling my feet to move, my legs to run, but it was like I was paralyzed from the waist down. So I did the only thing I could think of. I screamed. Then, all of a sudden, everything went black.
When I woke up, I was expecting to feel so sore that I could not move. But I actually felt quite the opposite!! Looking around me, I also expected to be in a hospital room. But, once again, I was wrong.
Beside me lay a rock with a bunch of names carved in them, and even though they were written not in English, but in Japanese, I could surprisingly read them!! However, the rock looked familiar, and I strained myself to try to remember. Suddenly it hit me. The K.I.A. memorial in Naruto!! Wait, I was in Konohagakure again?! But… that was impossible!! Did I look like that girl I was last time when I was here? I checked. But this time my hair wasn't blue… it was blonde! Beside me lay my katana, a bag, and some round red tin box, just like last time!
So, due to the shock of waking up in Naruto for the second time and looking nothing like myself after almost being run over by a Ford pickup, I screamed.
I guess I screamed pretty loud, because as soon as I did three familiar ninjas came running. Yup, you guessed it!! It was Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke!
"Hey, you!! What happened?" Sakura asked.
I just gaped and shook my head slowly, then collapsed on the ground and looked up at the sky. I was back, and there was nothing I could do about it.
"Ford… red… pickup… blackout… here!!" I managed to spit out.
"Um… in Japanese, please?" Sakura asked, and I realized that I could understand what they were saying even if they were speaking a language that I wasn't fluent in!! but I can tell people to shut up, say they're stupid, say I'm not, and say they're a fool. Ya, doesn't do much good… and I could reply back to them!! YAY!!
"I was… almost hit by a car… and blacked out… and I was here!! And my hair's not black anymore!! Or blue like last time!! It's freakin' blonde!! I'm too smart to be a blonde!!" but then remembered that Naruto was a blonde and turned to him. "No offense. Didn't mean you're stupid; I just meant… Well… you know… Oh whatever! You know what I mean!"
All three gave me a funny look.
"Hey! You're that girl from yesterday!!" Naruto suddenly exclaimed.
Sakura hit him on the back of the head. "You idiot, does she look anything like her?" and when Naruto pointed to the bandage she hit him over the head again. "That doesn't prove anything!!" she said, "She might have injured her hand too!"
They continued to argue so I sighed and turned to Sasuke. In order to make sure that they didn't find out that Naruto was a TV show in "my" world, I decided to act curious. "So… do they always act like this?"
He nodded then turned away.
Okay, that went well…
Haha… very funny…
You just suck at communicating with people, Sasuke being one of them.
Urusai!!
Hey!!
I said shut up!!
Fine… for now anyways…
Suddenly a man reading Come-Come walked over, his hair all spiky and sticking straight up. A mask covered the bottom half of his face, and his hitai-ate covered one of his eyes. It was Kakashi!!
"Oh!! Hiya!! Ka-"
Thought you said you were gonna pretend that you didn't know where the heck you were…
Right… good idea…
I try...
I turned to the three ninjas. "Who's that?" I asked, gesturing to Kakashi.
"Oh, that's our sensei!" Sakura told me, and grabbed my hand, pulling me up from where I sat.
"Kakashi sensei!! Look!!" she cried, waving her arms up in the air wildly. "This girl, she says she's from another world or something!!"
Kakashi looked up from his book. "Perhaps she's just crazy." He said, then went back to reading.
"Hey, old man!! I am not crazy!!" I exclaimed.
WAAAAAH, KAKASHI CALLED ME CRAZY!!
No, he called me crazy… not you.
YAY!! BUT HOW DARE YOU CALL HIM AN "OLD MAN".
Okay… whatever… you're a Kakashi fan now?
No, I'm going more for Sasuke, but Kakashi's cute.
Give it up; he's too old for you.
Is not!!
Yes he is, now go away!
Fine… But I'll be back!!
"Well then what are you?" Kakashi asked me.
"I'm a girl who almost got run over by a truck when I was in my world or dimension or whatever, and fell unconscious and when I woke up I was here in this world or dimension or whatever you call this place…" I told him, then added, "Oh, and it happened yesterday too!! Except minus the truck part and I had blue hair instead of my normal black hair and this time I have blonde instead of black and last time I cut myself with my katana to prove I was dreaming but I wasn't, so Na- I mean that blonde-haired guy wrapped my hand in a bandage and when I woke up I still had it but it was glowing!! And it was the same color as his hair!!"
They all looked at me like I was crazy, except for Naruto that is. He was grinning. "Ha! I knew you and that blue-haired girl were the same person!! I just knew it!! Told you Sakura!!"
I pointed at Sakura and laughed. "Oh!! You just got burned!!" But when no one was laughing I shut up. "Right… me be quiet now…" I whispered.
"Well, for one thing, if she is from another world, where did she get that?" Kakashi asked and pointed to my arm.
I twisted my head to see that around my arm, just below my shoulder, was a leaf village headband. I squealed. "Oh my God!! My own hitai-ate!! And not one of those fakes that you can buy online for twenty cents!! It's a REAL hitai-ate!! Holy jumping jelly beans!!"
"Okay… she's lost her mind…" Sakura said.
Sasuke cocked an eyebrow and stared at me like I was the stupidest thing in the world which I can be sometimes… but only sometimes!
"Have not!!" I exclaimed and stuck out my tongue.
"Immature…" I heard Sasuke mumble, which is probably true… But who gives a darn anyway? Certainly not me!
"Ayudasa, baka!!" Shut up, fool I said and burst out laughing. Yay!! I just called Sasuke a fool and told him to shut up!! I've always wanted to do that!!
You have weird desires…
Well you wanted Pikachu for Christmas!!
I know!! He's so adorable!!
Good point… but I hate the show…
Then why do you always watch it?
To look at Pikachu being his adorable little self!!
See!! Who wouldn't want Pikachu for Christmas?
Okay!! You win!! This time…
I know!! I always do.
Oh shut up!!
"So… you got a name or something?" Kakashi asked.
I nodded. "Nikki, Nikki Samson." I told him, grinning ear to ear. I could probably get used to this place. I mean, how hard could it be, right?
