Hey guys! This is the next chapter!
Have fun reading it! :)
We all sat at the dining table.
Just thinking and not looking at each other.
We had all introduced ourselves.
"So," I broke the awkward silence, "What were you guys doing before you came here?" I asked.
"Eating!" Exclaimed Naruto.
"Paperwork." Gaara said.
"Playing with Akamaru!" Kiba grinned.
"Training." Sasuke replied.
Before I could say anything, my dad emerged from his room door.
"What was all that before?" He demanded groggily, though his anger was evident.
Without a reply, he had spotted the four teenage guys.
He narrowed his eyes at me. "Katsumi Keiko." He said clearly. "Might I ask why there are four young men in the house at this hour?"
"You may not ask, but if you really want an explanation, these four are ninjas. They have their own anime and they came from out of the bathroom mirror." Was what I would have said had it not sounded so stupid in my head.
"Uh... Uh..." I blubbered. "Um! I thought that I would surprise Ryuu by bringing in some cosplayers!" I exclaimed happily.
"What the hell is a cosplayer?" Sasuke asked. "I'm not-"
I kicked him from under the table and he shut up.
My dad grunted. "Well then, who's that?" He asked as he pointed to Naruto.
"Uzumaki Naruto!" Ryuu exclaimed, going along with my plan. "You know, the main guy."
"The guy on the show has brown hair." Dad said clearly.
"Huh?" Ryuu asked.
"That's impossible, sir!" Exclaimed his friend strongly.
"It's his natural hair!" I exclaimed. "He was the only cosplayer left." I said sheepishly.
No longer able to put up with the troubling situation, my dad went back to the room.
Sasuke glared at me, "What the hell was that for?"
I ignored him and turned to Ryuu. "Brown hair?"
He shook his head and hurried off to his room with his friends.
The eight of us waited at the table until he came back, a look of disbelief on his face.
"What is it?" I asked.
He shoved a manga in to my face.
I had seen this volume before, but now, on the cover, were two completely different people.
It had been Naruto, Sasuke and this pink haired chick.
The pink haired chick remained but now, in place of Naruto and Sasuke were two other guys who looked competely different.
Where Naruto was meant to be standing, stood a brunette, his bright orange clothes were now red.
And where Sasuke stood, there was a blonde with icy blue eyes.
Sasuke looked over my shoulder, he had been sitting next to me.
He looked pointedly at the blonde. "Is that supposed to be me?"
"It is you." I said. "For the present moment."
"Geh!" Naruto exclaimed as he came around the table to look.
"Sakura!" He said after. "She's still there!"
"Wait, so you guys came here and got replaced which means that everyone in your world is still the same, they just..." Natsuko paused.
"Never knew that you existed..." Natsumi finished.
Naruto and Kiba looked pained while Sasuke and Gaara hid it well.
"Well then who are those guys?" I asked as I pointed to the two replacements.
"Could they have gone from here, our world, to there, the ninja world?" Aiko asked unsurely.
Then it was quiet before I groaned in frustration. "This means that this is actually real! How in hell did this happen?"
It was quiet then until Natsuko spoke up.
"It's no use thinking over it now." She said.
"It's past twelve o'clock." Natsumi said. "We'll talk about it in the morning, yeah?"
I sighed and stood, nodding as we walked off to my room.
Before we disappeared around the corner, I turned to the guys. "Could they sleep in your room, Ryuu?" I asked. "I don't think that Dad would appreciate four guys in mine."
Ryuu nodded and started talking to the four ninjas, telling them where the spare mattresses were.

Once in my room and huddling together in our sleeping bags, we started talking.
"Okay. Confession." Aiko said. "Those ninjas are hot."
"Amen." Natsuko said in agreement.
Natsumi nodded.
"I admit - they are." I said hesitantly.
"You and that dark haired one - Sasuke - totally have something going." Natsuko said to me.
I looked to her in horror. "No. Uh-uh."
"Yes. Uh-huh - is more like it." Natsumi said as the three of my friends stared me down.
"He is so your type." Aiko said.
"Since when did you know my type?" I asked, annoyed.
"Since the both of you looked like a definite couple sitting next to each other at the table." Natsumi said.
"And when he leaned in to look at the manga, you guys looked comfortable." Aiko wiggled her brows at me.
I hit her lightly. "This has got to be some sort of cosmic joke."
"If it helps, that red head is sizzling." Aiko said with a laugh.
Natsumi stifled a laugh. "That joke was lame."
"It got the intended reaction, though." Aiko exclaimed. "So? You and Sasuke - Yes, No?"
"No." I replied.
Natsuko made a sound of disappointment. "I think I heard his heart break."
I rolled my eyes at her, "Whatever."
"Aw, come on." Aiko pleaded. "We were just checking."
"Hey, they were all hot." Natsumi said. "Though the brunette's mine. What was his name?"
"Kiba." I said, having remembered all of their names.
"Naruto's a fox." Natsuko said, a laugh behind her mischievous tone.
I laughed. "You guys are horrible!"
"No. We're just truthful." Natsumi said.
"Anyway, what about Jun?" I asked them.
"So not worth it compared to Sasuke." Aiko said straightly.
"Amen." Natsumi said afterwards.
The third chapter is done!
Okay! REVIEW! :)
