SPECIAL CHAPTER 4
Special Announcement!
*Warning: This chapter is for shits and giggles as a thank you for all my readers for supporting the story and read all the way to this point. Don't drink anything while reading this, there's some OOC, and all kinds of random stuff. Here we go!*
The sounds of continuous laughter was heard through out halls of a studio as Naruto, Sakura, Nariko, and Miyuki were sitting in high chairs, talking and having fun. It wouldn't be long before they started the special chapter series for a story that they were doing and they were so excited about doing it for the fans.
"Is everyone ready?" The gang heard the director asked from his place near the cameraman. "We'll be going live in five minutes!"
Sakura was fixing her make up and studied her with a annoyed expression. Naruto didn't understand why she liked wearing that stuff on her face anyway. In his opinion, she looked fine without it. "Sakura-chan, there's no need for that stuff, you know?" He told her.
"And why not?" Sakura asked before she closed the lid on her mirror. "We're going to be on live television in a few minutes and I have to look my best, right?"
"You look fine without all that crap on your skin." Nariko interjected. "Honestly, I don't get what's so important about putting all that dirt and oil all over your face like that. Girls could be so self conscious sometimes..."
"Nariko, you're still too young to understand a woman's true beauty." Sakura giggled as she put on her lip gloss. "But it's okay. You will learn someday..."
"Sis, please don't start an argument..." Miyuki knew how Nariko was when it came down to things like this. Nariko loved to argue about certain issues and when it came down to females and self confidence, she would win just about every time.
Ignoring Miyuki's warning, Nariko continued on her little rant. "A woman's true beauty isn't putting all that make up on. It comes from self confidence and being comfortable in your own skin. What you're doing to yourself right now is only artificial beauty. I'm disappointed, Sakura. I thought you wouldn't be the one who cared about that kind of stuff..."
Sakura was steaming but Nariko did have a good point though. Naruto was scared that Sakura might destroy the studio that they were in. He couldn't forget the time that Sakura was jealous that Hinata had got her own ending and destroyed the platinum screen TV demanding for her own ending. "I get what you're saying, Nariko, but you didn't have to say it like that."
"I'm just telling it like it is. If she can't handle the truth, then that's just too bad. I'm not gonna sit there and lie to her like you would, Naruto." Nariko pointed out and the raven instantly pinned Naruto into a corner. "Why don't you tell Sakura about the time she cooked you a meal and you ate it, despite the fact that it tasted like despair...As you would call it."
"WHAT?" Sakura roared from where she heard. She had worked her butt off to prepare the meal for him that day and now she was hearing that he didn't like it. "I THOUGHT YOU SAID MY FOOD WAS GOOD!"
"I was kidding, Sakura-chan!" Naruto said nervously, hoping that Sakura wouldn't beat the living shit out of him. "The food was fine, but it could use a little more seasoning!"
Sakura felt veins popping all over her forehead. Naruto had messed up when he said that. "YOU LITTLE LYING...!"
"Quiet on the set! We're going live in 30 seconds!" The director announced and they had rushed over to their spots to get ready to shoot their first TV special.
Naruto was adjusting his headband, tightening it around his head. Sakura was combing her hair, straightening out her hair from any tangles. Nariko was dusting off her karate shirt and Miyuki was brushing her hair to rid herself of any tangles as well. Nariko was so glad that she wore her hair in a high ponytail. She didn't have to deal with that.
"And we're live in 5...4...3...2..." The director said and his producer cued them to start reading the words from off the title cards. Naruto was the first to start everything off.
"Hi there, everybody! Welcome to the 'Special Announcement' Segment special from the hit series 'Changing Fate!' Today, we gonna recap some of our favorite moments in the story line and afterwards, we have a special surprise for our readers!" Naruto said with the famous Uzumaki grin. "Nariko, why don't you start us off?"
"Me? Well, I have a favorite moment that had me ROFL!" Nariko said in between giggles. "That was when me and Sakura both went out to lunch together one day..."
Sakura blushed from remembering what almost happened that and Naruto saw that. He had a grin so wide on his face that Miyuki was afraid that his face would split in half from the gesture. This was the perfect chance to get back at Sakura. "Oh really? Do tell. What happened that day?"
"NOOO! Don't show that clip!" Sakura protest but Nariko grabbed the remote in her chair and pressed the 'play' button on it, turning on the TV that was behind them...
XxX
"Nariko grabbed Sakura's chin and turned her head to face hers. "Yes, you do. Or to be more precise, you thought I was beautiful that day. Am I right?"
"Ummm, I-"
Nariko chuckled, "You're a pretty girl, too, Sakura-chan..." she complimented and brushed a single strand of Sakura's hair to the side. "I appreciate the compliment."
Sakura's blush became a brighter shade of red, "Nariko-chan, what are you...doing?" she asked, feeling a little uneasy from the younger girl's strange behavior.
"In order for you to blush like that around me because of him, you must of really liked Sasuke in the past." She pointed out. 'Indeed she did, but I wonder if it's still there...'
Sakura was now only inches away from Nariko's face and there was only one question that was running through her mind. 'Umm, is she going to...?'
"Isn't it obvious?" Nariko asked as she leaned in closer, almost nose to nose with pink-haired girl. "Sakura, will you...?"
Sakura's eyes widen from the fact that her thoughts were read by the girl, "N-Nariko-chan...?" her lips started to quiver and her blush intensified. 'Okay! Time to panic!'
INNER SAKURA
"SHANAROO! Don't just stand there, do something! She's gonna kiss you!"
"Sakura-chan..." Nariko said her name with a such a need...
"Uh..uh..." Sakura's face was now a bright red from Nariko bringing her face so dangerously close to hers. The only thing she could at this point to save herself from total embarrassment was to close her eyes so she wouldn't see what happens.
XxX
"It turned out that she had some broth on her cheek and I wanted to get it off for her, but she thought I was going to kiss her!" Nariko said and she entered a laughing fit. It wasn't long before Naruto was laughing right along with her.
Sakura hung her head down low in shame and in embarrassment. She wanted nothing more than to crawl in a corner and wilt away like a dead flower.
Miyuki felt so bad for Sakura. Against Naruto and Nariko, she didn't stand a chance. They were a dangerous force to be reckon with. "Are you okay, Sakura-chan?"
"Awww...What's wrong, Sakura? Are you mad that it didn't happen?" Sakura blushed from the young raven's assumption, which made Nariko smirked a devious grin. "Let's give them a little fanservice, shall we?"
Before Sakura had a chance to protest, Nariko grabbed the pink-haired girl by her chin and had Sakura facing her with a predatory look on her face. "Nariko...don't do it..."
Before going any further, Nariko had stopped to see that all the males in the studios had some serious nosebleeds. Some were passed out on the floor, some were standing there like statues as the red liquid frequently flowed from their nostrils. Even Naruto was having a nosebleed, using up almost all of the tissue that was in the box. "All right...moving on..." The Nariko said nervously, thinking now would be a good time to stop. "Sakura, what about you?"
"Hmmm..." Sakura took the remote from Nariko and pressed the 'next clip' button and played the next clip...
XxX
"Naruto? Nariko? What are you doing here?" She asked.
"Well, Gaara and Temari are here and-"
"I'm well aware of that, Naruto. I was supposed to meet them at the village gates." Sakura said sternly. "What's the matter?"
"Sakura-chan, Gaara is...Gaara is..."
Sakura asked raising an eyebrow, "Gaara is what exactly?"
It may not be something that she wants to hear but Naruto might as well come out and say it. "He's gay!"
Sakura's eye twitched a little from Naruto's answer, "He's...what?" she inquired, not sure that she heard him right.
'And it's going downhill from here...' Nariko thought.
"That's right! He is! He told me that himself! He-" His voice trailed when he noticed Sakura's strange expression. She had her hands covering her mouth, holding in stifled giggles.
"Uh...Sakura-chan, what are you-"
But Naruto was cut off by Sakura's uncontrollable outburst of giggles. Naruto wondered what was so funny about this situation. One of his best friends was gay and he didn't find it funny one bit. Maybe she'll tell him what's so funny when she stops laughing.
"Naruto, Gaara is not gay!" Sakura reassured between laughs and Naruto just stood there looking like a complete fool.
"He-He's not?" He asked unsure of what she said is true.
"No, silly!" Sakura answered and her giggles soon turned into laughter.
It didn't take long before Nariko started laughing right along with Sakura. This was too good of a moment to pass up by not laughing.
"Nariko!" Naruto whined clearly not liking the fact that Nariko was now laughing at him.
"Sorry, Naruto. I couldn't resist!" Nariko said in between her laughs.
The two girls hold hugged each other to trying to stop laughing but it wasn't helping and made them laugh even more. Naruto rolled his eyes, waiting for the two laughing kunoichi to calm down from their little giggle fit, "Ha! Ha! Ha! Very funny!" He said with sarcasm.
XxX
Now Sakura, Nariko, and even Miyuki were laughing at Naruto. He had forgotten all about that, but how else would he react when he thought that Gaara was gay. That was nothing to make a joke about. Gaara is his best friend, you know. "Okay! Stop laughing!" Naruto yelled getting frustrated.
"Okay. Okay. Miyuki, what about you?" Sakura asked giving the blonde the remote. Miyuki had blushed when she thought who had made her very happy during her time away from her sister.
"Well, I met a friend during my journey and he's been really kind and sweet to me..." Miyuki said and she pressed the 'next clip' button on the remote as well. "This is the moment where we first met..."
XxX
On the screen was Miyuki and a white-haired young man with shark teeth and the two of them were...standing in a hot spring together? The blonde had a white towel wrapped around her body and the guy was half naked!
The water nin licked his lips across his rows of sharp teeth. Miyuki couldn't get away, because he had a death grip on her waist. She had liked him as a friend and all, but this was going way too far! Suigetsu leaned in slowly, his eyes at half mast as he tilted his head to the side. Miyuki's blush intensified as he was coming closer to her. She had to admit that looking into his eyes, he looked quite...sexy with that face.
'Just a little more and those lips will be mine...!' Suigetsu thought.
Just when the kiss was about to happen, the screen goes black.
XxX
Miyuki scrambled with the remote and she turned the TV off completely. "Hehehe...wrong clip..." She answered nervously, hoping that they wouldn't make a big deal out of it. Sakura was blushing madly and she now had a nosebleed. Naruto and Nariko's eyes were twitching in annoyance from what they had just seen. That's not what friends did when they first met!
"WHO THE HELL WAS THAT, MIYUKI?" Nariko bellowed, clearly not liking the thought of her baby sister almost getting deflowered on live television. 'I DON'T EVEN KNOW THE DUDE AND I ALREADY DON'T LIKE HIM! DID HE SEDUCE YOU?"
"Well, he..." Miyuki started.
"A GIRL AND A BOY SHOULD NOT BE NAKED IN A HOT SPRING TOGETHER!" Naruto hollered in near hysterics. "WHAT WAS HE DOING IN THERE?"
"About that, he..." The blonde tried again to tell them for a second time.
"And now it's time for Naruto's favorite clip of the whole series!" Sakura said as Naruto took out the spare remote that he had and pressed the 'red button' on the remote...
XxX
"I can't take it anymore. I've done everything I wanted to do in my life and I'm still not happy. I can't be happy knowing that you still feel hatred towards me. I know I've made some stupid mistakes in my life and I'm regretting every single one of them, but the only thing I don't regret is meeting you...becoming rivals...being best friends with you...and falling in love with you..." Sasuke confessed while he dipped Naruto's back a little bit and intertwine his hand into Naruto's and grips it firmly. The blond was now looking up at the raven, completely overwhelmed by his words.
"Sasuke?" Naruto pleaded. "What are you saying?"
Sasuke gently caressed his whiskered cheek, "Naruto...I love you." he finally said.
Naruto couldn't believe it. Sasuke had just told him he loved him. Naruto had so many doubts about being together with Sasuke and all those doubts were obliterated the moment Sasuke uttered those three special words to him. Naruto can rest easy now knowing that Sasuke feels the same way about him. If there is a time to tell Sasuke the same thing, this would be the best time.
"I...I love you, too, Sasuke..." Naruto confessed and wrapped his arms around Sasuke's neck.
Naruto and Sasuke slowly lean in until they were inches away and they pressed their lips together. The feeling was nice, sweet, loving, and innocent. They both thought it would be appropriate to dub this kiss their first...since their actually first was awkward and completely by accident. After a few more seconds, they parted a bit to catch their breaths.
XxX
The only sound that were heard throughout the whole building was crickets chirping. No one made a sound. No one dared to make a move. Then, Naruto theatrical screams broke the silence in the whole room.
"Soft yaoi..." Sakura said in a heavenly tone and she passed out on the floor. The pink-haired girl had a smile on her face and she was giggling like a horny school girl.
Nariko thought she was going to throw up and poor Miyuki covered her eyes. They didn't need to see that.
"AAAHHHHH! TURN IT OFF! TURN IT OFF!" the blond desperately pressed the button to turn it off, but it wasn't working. He was in near tears as his virgin eyes were being raped over and over again by the kissing scene being on constant repeat. "IT WON'T TURN OFF!"
"Jesus Christ, Naruto..." Nariko took the remote from him and turned the TV off. "You pressed the 'yaoi button' by accident, dumbass..."
Miyuki decided to take over, since she had calm down considerably from being embarrassed earlier. "Well, that's all for this crazy random special! Thanks for watching us! And as a special treat for the readers, we're gonna give you a special sneak peek for what's to come...for Part 2 of Changing Fate!"
"PART 2?" Naruto and Nariko exclaimed while the two of them were trying to snap Sakura out of her yaoi daze.
"Yep! Watch this!" Miyuki pressed the 'special surprise' button on the remote and the TV came on...
The battle may be over for now but it's only the beginning...Now the girls face new adventures and their new dangers in a...hospital room?
"I hate the hospital. I hate the freaking hospital!" Nariko spat in anger with her arms crossed.
"Look at this way, Nariko. At least we're together again...in the same room." Miyuki said trying to cheer her up.
"Hn...!" Nariko growled in response, "Stuck in the hospital for almost half the story line! I can't wait for it!" she said drenching every word with sarcasm.
NEW RIVALRIES!
"Four eyes!"
"Blondie!"
"Witch!"
"Hag!"
Karin and Ino stare each other down in a brutal face off.
"We set ourselves up for this, didn't we?" Shikamaru said shaking his head in disappointment from Ino's behavior. "This is only going to be even more troublesome."
"You said it." Choji agreed.
Nariko growled furiously at the water-nin. "Asshole!"
"Chibi-chan!" Suigetsu chided back because she reminded him of Sasuke, but she was nothing like him.
"Whitehead!" Nariko smirked in triumph as he seem even more annoyed.
'This girl...is worse than Karin...!' Suigetsu thought as he and Nariko stared each other down with electricity flying around them.
"Oh boy..." Miyuki said frightened. "Those two...This is NOT going to work..."
NEW FRIENDS!
"My name is Sarina Tomoe. Nice to meet all of you!" The redhead wink at everyone but all she got in return was confused looks. "Well, this is a fine way to greet a shinobi..." She said in a flat tone.
HIDDEN SECRETS!
"Nariko, why do you act the way you do?" Naruto asked. "I don't understand."
Because...my family were killed...right before my very eyes!"
XxX
"Miyuki, I'll let you in...about my past. The premature death of my older brother, Mangetsu Hozuki and the Seven Swordsman of the Mist." Suigetsu finally said.
"Your...older brother...?" Miyuki asked.
NEW ADVENTURES!
"In order for you to become our comrades, Team Taka is gonna have to take the Konoha Shinobi Alliance Exam." Shizune explained to the group.
"Say what?" Karin yelled in anger. "No interrogation?"
"Don't push it, red-head." Tsunade seethed.
"This is your new leader of Team Taka or should I say Team 5." Tsunade announced
'Out of all people, why did it have to be her?' Suigetsu thought when he found out who it was.
ROMANCE!
"Sasuke, what's gonna happen to us?" Naruto questioned.
Sasuke shook his head. He really doesn't know how to respond to what Naruto just said to him.
"I don't know, Naruto...I just don't know..." He answers and hugged Naruto for all his worth.
XxX
"I don't...really know how to say this but..." Miyuki started. "I'm just gonna come out and say it..."
Suigetsu wasn't sure about she was trying to say, but he simply nodded, prompting her to continue.
"I guess what I'm trying to say is..." Miyuki gulped hard and her breath hitched from being so nervous. She turned around and she smiled warmly before finally having the courage to say what she had always wanted to say to him. "...I've fallen in love with you, Suigetsu-kun..."
DRAMA!
"Sasuke-kun, if you want Naruto's compassion, then you're gonna have to fight me in order to get it." Sakura declared getting in her battle stance.
Sasuke couldn't believe what Sakura was saying to him. He had never heard anything so far-fetched.
"A fight for his compassion?" Sasuke questioned and he also gets into his battle stance. "You must be joking..." He smirked.
XxX
"This is not gonna be easy. How are we suppose to tell them that were are their daughters in the future, knowing that it's genetically impossible for men to have children?" Miyuki asked. "And the real mystery is...how were we born into this world?"
Nariko shrugged. "Beats me. All I know is they're gonna find out at some point and we'll figure out how we were born..."
Everyone around the table tensed up from the girls' story.
"The battle is just beginning..." Nariko explained. "If we don't stop the leader of the 'Bakudai', all is lost..."
"Who is the leader...?"
"His name is Touran. He's a very dangerous and malicious man who sucks away his opponent's chakra and drinks it in order to regain his power."
"Nariko, I'm not sure what you mean?" Naruto said confused.
"Naruto, if you don't let go of that hatred and anger, it's going to be the very thing that kills you in the end. Make the right decision or that tragedy will repeat itself again..."
HEARTBREAK!
"Nariko, why must we continue to lose the ones we love? WHY?" Miyuki asked.
Nariko doesn't answer her sister's question.
"I can't continue to fight knowing that I'm gonna lose! I quit. It's over..."
PAIN!
"You're leaving, aren't you Naruto?" Sasuke concluded.
Naruto's face sadden from Sasuke's response, "It's the only way to save the world from total annihilation..."
"Naruto, please don't do this..." Sasuke pleaded.
"What choice do I have, Sasuke? I am not going to let Touran destroy this world."
IF YOU THOUGHT PART 1 WAS GOOD, YOU HAVEN'T SEEN NOTHING YET!
The next story arc in Part 2 of Changing Fate is:
SASUKE'S RETRIBUTION ARC
SEE YOU NEXT TIME!
