HELLO! THE AMAZING GENIUS WHO IS DOODLEMONSTAH IS BACK, FEELING AS HYPERACTIVE AS A NARUTO ON COFFEE!

BWAHAHAHA!

(That's it, little humans, run!)

Disclaimer: Don't own Naruto. Any of them. Not even one of his clones.

-Chapter 9-

Naruto shakily picked himself off the ground, where the explosion had thrown him.

All around him were fires, bells that had started going off, along with loud sirons that some panicked ninja had pulled. Villagers running around in circles screaming, and many people started giving out blood-curdling screams. Sasuke screamed like a girl as he watched his tomatoes burn to nothingness. ANBU were jumping everywhere, and many of the ninja had stricken look on their faces as they saw something of theirs burn in the flames.

Choji screamed that he had lost stash of chip bags.

Shikamaru's eyes bugged at losing his rarest game board piece.

And Kakashi was STILL mourning over his perverted book!

It was chaos.

Naruto steadied himself. Fires blazed behind him, creating a dark silhouette of his body to those that could see him.

Naruto felt more desperate than ever before. Crazed blue eyes glinted from the fire. He had barely eaten anything in the last week or so- he was starving, couldn't have ramen, and his only plan had literally blown up in his face! His sight was starting to blur, and he was feeling lightheaded and weak from lack of food, combined with being hit by a massive explosion.

Now what? He had messed up his only plan! How was he gonna get ramen? All he wanted was some soup! Was that so bad?!

WHY?!

All he wanted... Was his ramen.

"Is that really what you want, Naruto?" Asked ramen-chan, shocking Naruto out of his thoughts.

"Ramen-chan?" He asked aloud. "Is that you?"

"Yes, I'm ramen-chan, of course. But what is it that you really want, Naruto?"

"What do you mean? I want my ramen back!"

"Are you sure?"

"I TOLD YOU, I WANT THE RAMEN!"

"Really?"

"YES REALLY, I JUST WANT SOME RAMEN!" Naruto yelled at the top of his voice.

Naruto's loud yelling caused the other ninja to snap out of their grieving for their 'precious objects' and watch him with weary eyes, watching his every move. To them, Naruto appeared to be insane, he was standing in front of flames with a frantic look in his eyes, looking at seemingly nothing, and shouting at the top of his lungs to someone named "ramen-chan."

xxXxx

As Sasuke watched his blonde teammate yell and rant to "ramen-chan" he couldn't help but feel a shiver go down his back.

Crazy... They were all crazy... Every single one of them.

His stalker fangirls... His perverted sensei... The angry hulk known as hokage... The crazy dango lady... and worst of all...

Naruto.

Sasuke's tomatoes just had to burnt up, didn't they?!Just HAD to be put him on the team with the creepy fangirl and psychopathic ramen-obsessed freak who just HAD to be banned from ramen. People thought HE had problems?! Look at the orange phyco!

He had to get out of this place! Forget gaining enough power to kill his brother who slaughtered his clan! If this kept up, Naruto would slaughter an entire VILLAGE!

Screw it, Sasuke was leaving this place!

xxXxx

"Are you really, really, really, REALLY sure?" Ramen-chan asked Naruto.

"YES I'M SURE! I NEED MY RAMEN BACK! MY RAMEN! MY RAMEN!" Naruto shouted at the top of his lungs.

Ninja watched nervously as Naruto seemed to become more and more crazed, shouting louder and louder, eyes becoming more and more frantic.

Some ninja had started saying things along the lines of,

"We should just give him some already-"

"Why is there a ramen ban in the first pla-"

"GIVE HIM SOM-"

"What if the kyu-"

"Sshh you can't talk abo-"

"HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY THAT I JUST WANT RAMEN?!" Naruto screamed at the top of his throat as he spoke to ramen-chan.

Villagers started backing away from Naruto, who's eyes had turned red. Angry red wisps of chakra flew around him like a tornado. His clones started to pop away, leaving one puff of smoke after another.

Meanwhile, ninja started taking defensive positions and looking to the hokage for further orders.

As Tsunade watched all of this play out, she knew what she had to do.

She had to detain Naruto.

For their safety, and his own.

"YAMATO!" Tsunade yelled. "Detain Naruto!"

xxXxx

As Shino walked home after the events that day, he was highly disturbed at the days events. Not like anyone knew. No one ever noticed him unless he said something helpful in a life or death situation. And then they would continue on forgetting all about him. Always forgotten. This trait seemed to run in his family, it seemed. It was something he often resented.

But what happened that day was highly disturbing. First, Naruto had caused an explosion, causing people to start screaming and mourning their treasured goods, then he started to leak red chakra, before being stopped by 'Yamato' and being dragged off somewhere.

Highly disturbing indeed.

But for once in Shino's life, he was GLAD that someone had forgotten about him. After all, something terrible had happened to everyone else. Kakashi lost his smut, Neji lost his shampoo, Sasuke lost his tomatoes...

But nothing had happened to Shino.

Yep, for once in his life, Shino was glad to have been forgotten.

Finally arriving home, Shino opened his door and looked inside before entering.

His jaw hit the floor.

He stood frozen for a few seconds, before throwing open the door, and running, as he scr-

"AHHHHHH! DEAR KAMI!"

Shino curled up into a ball and sucked his thumb.

Because in his room, was a note, saying, "I WANT RAMEN!"

And next to that note, was something so terrible, so repulsive, so terrifying, it was horror itself! Horror personified! It was-!

A tiny squirt bottle of insect repellent.

"WHY COULDN'T I HAVE BEEN FORGOTTEN?!" Shino thought, as anime tears streamed down his face.

Yes, it was a sad day indeed when Shino was remembered.

xxXxx

A/N heh, that last sentence has some word play on it, so it has two very different meanings.

Are you smart enough to figure them both out?

Hehehe...

Poor Naruto. Poor Shino.
