"…."

The whole room was silent after hearing Kiba's story.

Chouji stopped munching on his tidbits.

Sakura held on to Sasuke as if she was holding on to her life.

Naruto's jaws dropped.

Flick-flick.

The light of the living room flickered and cause a few screams out of the girls.

The guys were also terrified.

After a few flicks, the light was back to normal.

Sighs were heard.

"…So let's continue with this competition, okay?" Tenten suggested.

"It's Chouji's turn, right?"

"Yeah."

"Come on, Chouji, tell us your story."

/////////////////

This happened 1 year ago. I was walking at school normal routine going canteen. The art room was clearing their old art piece because they wanna shift to another block and they're no longer needed.

There's one nice painting of a girl's portrait. I took it and bought it home. Strange things happen from that day onwards. Every time I want to sleep, I will see the picture and noticed her eyes are moving. When I on the light, nothing will happen. When it's dark, it happened, so I decide to tell my brother about it. As he's from commando unit, fear wasn't on his side. He sleeps below and stared the painting.

I was sleeping peacefully one day when I heard my brother using vulgar. I woke up and he was wearing his army uniform and his red beret. He was actually scolding the painting. After sometimes, the painting burns by itself. My brothers took the ash and threw it somewhere. He told me that his beret crest was blessed by 7 religions every year. So there was no need to worry.

From that day onwards, I bought the army crest at beach road and keep it in my purse. Till now, I'm happy because everything fine.
