"I have to what?! This mission just barely ranks a D so why does it say it's A B-ranked mission?" Naruto demanded angrily.

"Come on Naruto. This mission isn't a total drag," said the lazy voice of Shikamaru.

"What are you saying? We only have to investigate some weird chakra spikes in the forest. That's too boring to be a B-ranked mission."

"Naruto, please shut up. You're giving me a migraine," Tsunade said irritably. "This is really important because there have been sightings of enemy ninja around the forest."

"This is still going to be boring," Naruto said as he crossed his arms.

"Naruto, you have to go on this mission no matter what," Neji said calmly.

"No and you can't make me."

Suddenly, Neji and Shikamaru were dragging Naruto out the door. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I deserve free ramen for this!" Naruto yelled.

"This is going to be such a drag," Shikamaru said sighing.

Code Anime-Third Prestage

Written by Arielle or a.k.a. Hugglestheknowitall

This is probably the last Prestage. One: Because I'm starting to get annoyed by not just getting to the story and Two: Because I like the number three. Not the number four. Anyway so please enjoy the story.

Insert: Message in a Bottle by the Police

Ed and Sora had just about become best friends, mostly because of their situation but nevertheless they were still friends. Ed had even felt comfortable enough to tell Sora about his automail, his past, and his ability to do alchemy.

One day Sora and Ed were walking a short distance from the ship when Sora had told him about how he had once turned into a heartless to save Kairi and Ed felt that this kid must not be that simple minded. Ed had decided to tell him about his automail and alchemy. Sora had been astounded by the alchemy and had almost fainted when he saw the automail.

The next day Sora had an idea.

"Hey Ed, your alchemy can change things right?"

"Yeah."

"So why don't you use it to fix the ship? It would be really easy because all you would have to do is fix the engine because the rest of the ship looked fine."

"What are you talking about? It was in pieces!"

Sora smirked. "But gummi pieces are different."

Ed sighed. Sora seemed to know what he was talking about. "Alright."

They walked back and Ed started trying to fix the engine. A bright light flashed as Ed used his alchemy.

"That is so awesome," Sora said.

"Are we there yet, Ichigo?" The annoying yet adorable stuffed animal asked.

"Kon, shut up. I don't even know where we're going," Ichigo said.

"I really miss Rukia..."

Ichigo sighed and threw Kon against a tree.

"Ow..." Kon said sighing.

"Stupid perverted stuffed animal," Ichigo muttered.

Suddenly, he could sense someone's spiritual pressure running towards him. On instinct, Ichigo turned around and pinned the person to the ground. Ichigo looked at the person and was surprised to see it was a girl who looked to be around 14 years old.

"Ohmigosh! I'm so sorry!" She said very quickly. "I was running to find my friend and I wasn't looking and now I made you fall and..."

"Calm down," Ichigo said, "And SPEAK SLOWLY."

"I'm so sorry! I knocked you down and-"

"You didn't know me down, I knocked you down."

"So you're a pervert?" The girl asked with all innocence.

"NO!" Ichigo calmed down when he saw the girl move back. "I mean, no, I just thought you were an enemy."

"That makes sense," the girl said as her eyes darted around.

Ichigo was surprised by her reaction because he had expected to say something sarcastic about how crazy he was.

"Ichigo!"

Ichigo looked down to see Kon standing there angrily. Ichigo suddenly got worried. Dammit, this girl saw Kon and Rukia's not even here so I can't erase her memory, Ichigo thought.

"Ohmigosh! A talking stuffed animal!"

"It's not what it looks like!" Ichigo said desperately. "It's a robotic doll!"

"Of course it's what it looks like," the girl said. "It's a mod soul."

"Wait, you know about mod souls?"

"Course I do!" She said happily. "One of my best friends is a mod soul."

"Really," Ichigo said curiously. "Can I see it?" Suddenly Ichigo was knocked over. He looked up to see a small teddy bear standing on his face.

"I'm not an 'it'!" The teddy bear looked back at the girl. "And Daysi, how many times do I have to tell you? I'm not a mod soul. I'm just a kid who got stuck in the body of this stuffed animal."

"Alrighty then! Whatever you say Riku-san!"

"How many times do I have to tell you this also? You can just call me Riku."

"Okay, Riku-san!" As Riku was sighing, Daysi looked at Ichigo who was still on the ground. "Do you know where you are Ichigo?"

"No."

Daysi smiled innocently. "That's good."

"Shikamaru, Naruto, did you feel that?" Neji asked.

"Yeah," Shikamaru said. "The chakra spike came from that way."

"Right, let's go."

"Wait, what?" Naruto said as Neji and Shikamaru rushed forward.

"Wait a second," Shikamaru said. "I felt one from the other way too."

"Naruto, you head that way. Shikamaru and I will go this way," Neji directed.

"Okay," they all said at once.

"Yes, it's finally fixed!" Ed said exhaustedly.

"Yeah! Now we can go home!" Sora said happily.

"Hey, who're you guys?"

Ed and Sora turned around to see a kid with blond spiky hair, an orange suit and whisker marks on his face.

"Oh, I'm Sora!" he said happily.

"Nice ta meet ya Sora! I'm Naruto!" he also said happily.

"Do you know where we are?" Ed asked.

"Somewhere around the forest around Konoha."

"Konoha? Never heard of it," Sora said.

"That's strange," Naruto said.

"You know what's even stranger?" Sora asked.

"What?"
"The weird portal around our feet."

"WHAT!?" Ed and Naruto screamed as the three were pulled into the portal and disappeared.

"So what do we do now?" Ichigo asked.

"We have to wait for the others, Pervert-san," Daysi said.

"Please don't call me Pervert-san."

Daysi smiled. "Okay! Can I call you Orange-san?"

Ichigo sighed. "Well, anything's better than Pervert-san."

"Daysi, you shouldn't harass people," Riku said.

"Awwwwww, but Riku-san..."

"Everyone freeze."

Daysi jumped up. "Yay! They're here!"

"Who's here?" Ichigo asked, but his question was answered when he saw two kids come out of the trees. One looked bored like he didn't want to be there and the other one looked serious with pale eyes.

"Who are you?" the pale eyed one asked.

"Why should we tell you?" Ichigo said.

The bored looking one turned to Ichigo. "Could you just cooperate so we could get this over with?"

"Sorry, but I don't really trust you guys."

The bored one sighed and the pale eyed one looked ready to fight. Ichigo had taken out his badge thingy with the skull on it.

Before anyone could do anything, Daysi stepped out into the middle of them. "You guys shouldn't fight." She smiled. "You're all getting kidnapped anyway."

The bored looking kid and the pale eyed one looked surprised.

"Daysi, what are you talking about?" Ichigo asked angrily.

"Just look at your feet."

Ichigo and the other two kids looked down to see a portal pulling them in. The three disappeared into the portal.

Daysi smiled again. "Bye, Orange-san." And she left through her own portal.

Authoress' Note: GASP That was one of the longest chapters I have ever written. Tear I'm so happy. Anyway, this is the last prestage so the next chapter is chapter 1. Finally. Technically, I hadn't even finished writing it. I just typed it as it came into my head so there might be a few things that don't make sense. I also didn't do any rewriting of this so this is the original. By the way, Daysi is the only original character I put in here mostly because it helped me find a reason why everyone would be pulled into random portals. I didn't feel like explaining what she looked like in the story so:

Name: Sato Detrixen

Nickname: Daysi

Hair color: Brownish-red

Eye color: Hazel

Clothes: Wears a pink dress that looks a little ragged at the bottom, Tan sandals, and wears a flower in her hair

Thanks for reading. I accept criticism. NOT FLAMES.
