AN: Thanks again for all the reviews, they are very nice! And since year-of-the-gnat has been begging, I'll ask you to look at Naruto's Narrator. WARNING: Reading Naruto's narrator may make you feel stupider than you did before. And that's how it's fun, though. She wrote that mostly by herself (I gave her a few ideas). Anyway, here's the fourth chapter…

Shikamaru felt the presence behind him and turned. Lee and Gai stood there in green jumpsuits and chief hats with Kitchen of Youth written on them in sharpie and crayon.

"Shikamaru! I see your youthful mug has not failed you! Come into our restaurant!" Lee shouted. Before Temari and Shikamaru could comprehend the expression, they were dragged in.

"Wait-we don't want—" Shikamaru started, but Gai stuffed something in his mouth. It tasted like over-cooked leather. Shikamaru chewed and chewed, but it wouldn't go away.

"Eat! Eat! Your youthful soul needs ice cream!" Gai smiled. Shikamaru was on the verge of throwing up. Temari looked the same, as Lee had put something in her mouth, as well. The second Gai and Lee looked away to get more food, they spit the food out in a plant pot (where there was also a lot more spit-out food) and ran. Fortunately, they got out.

Behind them, in the restaurant, they could hear. "They disappeared, like all the others!" "There must be something wrong with this restaurant, like it might be cursed or something!" "With our youthfulness, we will beat the curse!"

"If that's your idea of a good restaurant, I need a new boyfriend." Temari moaned, wiping her mouth on her sleeve.

"Trust me, if I ate there regularly, I would be dead by now." Shikamaru retorted, spitting into the grass. "And I had a different idea for lunch."

"I don't have much of an appetite, anymore, let's just go back to your place and get wasted, like we were gonna do in the first place." Temari grinned.

Meanwhile…

"Ok, Hinata, I need your help." Naruto grinned, through a mouthful of ramen. They were sitting at the ramen shack, eating ramen.

"What do you need?" Hinata asked, setting down her ramen.

"I need you to help me break into the Uchiha mansion." Naruto's grin grew wider.

"What?!" Hinata yelled, or muttered uncharacteristically loud, in her case.

"See, Sakura has been keeping Sasuke in there, for a long time and I know he wants to train. He's can't be trapped like a caged bird, he must be free! Or some crap like that. The guy at the 3rd Chuunin exam said something like that to Neji; I don't care. Anyway, we've got to break him out." Naruto exclaimed, gulping down more ramen. Although, she could see several flaws with this plan, she could not refuse and she knew that nothing could change Naruto's mind, when he had it set to something.

"I guess, Naruto, but we need a better plan." Naruto looked confused.

"Plan? We're just gonna break in and get Sasuke and then, we'll leave before Sakura finds us." Naruto explained, patiently. Hinata sighed.

"This might take longer than I thought…"

Meanwhile…

"I can't see anything!" Ino told no one in particular. Sakura had decided to stay home, looking nervously toward Sasuke's room and then, the basement. Ino shifted a little to see through the branches of the tree she was hiding in. Through her binoculars, she was able to see Shikamaru's living room. "There!"

Shikamaru was sitting on the couch, his arm around Temari, who was next to him. They were drinking, like it was going out of style.

"That should be me!" Ino muttered, angrily. Then, she got an idea. "If they get totally wasted, then, I can take care of Temari and get Shikamaru!" Ino smiled, choosing to ignore all the obvious flaws in this plan, merely content to spend the night with Shikamaru alone (no matter how wasted he might be).

Meanwhile…

Gaara and Kankuro were in the tree across the street, again.

"No, Temari, not another bottle." Kankuro cried, putting his face in his hands. "All they've been doing is getting wasted and watching TV for the past hour."

"Well, at least nothing worse has happened." Gaara lied. They had made-out a little, when Kankuro was off… uhm-using the bushes… They faintly heard Temari yell.

"Dude, havin' brothers sucks!" Kankuro put his head down. Gaara narrowed his eyes. They couldn't hear what Shikamaru said, but they heard Temari again. "Well, you ain't missin much, 'cept torture and embarrassment and yea… And then, tellin' half da 'cademy wuzz in your diary…" Kankuro smiled.

"I remember that. I felt bad at the time, but now she deserves it." He chuckled, weakly. Shikamaru said something else, but he wasn't as loud as Temari. It was something about not having a last name. They listened to the conversation in silence, until Temari said something about her last name being Naro.

"Wait-that sounds like Nara, Shikamaru's last name." Gaara stated. Kankuro threw up. "Let's get you to a doctor…" Gaara helped Kankuro to the doctor's office, because he seemed to far in shock to do it himself.
