"Uh, Naruto, it's too much of a drag, I'd rather take a nap" Shikamaru said
"But c'mon, Shika, Ino and Choji are up for it" Naruto pleaded, once again
"Yeah Shikamaru, I'll give ya some of my chips, and that's something you better be grateful for" Choji yelled, trying to convince him
"C'mon, lazy man, you had better join us, or I'll hit you with a 16-hit combo!!!" Ino yelled, infuriating him
Well, you guys have a point, Shikamaru thought
Flashback
Shikamaru and his team were fighting against Hidan and Kakuzu, and after Kakashi deflected Kakuzu's lightning attack, Shikamaru noticed a small cut on his mask.
Woah, I wonder, that cut on his mask, is it enough to take off his mask, enough for us to see his face? Shikamaru wondered
But by the end, Shikamaru had a disappointed look on his face
Hm, maybe I should've "accidentally" used Shadow Possession Jutsu on him to take of his mask, Shikamaru thought
Flashback End
"Hm, maybe it would be a whole lot easier if I actually used Shadow Possession Jutsu on him, then I wouldn't be haunted every night about his dang face!!!" Shikamaru said, shivering in his shoes, literally
"....I'll take whatever you said as a YES!!!" Naruto said
Just put the "sensei convincing chapter" here
The 10 chunin (and apparently 2 genin, Sasuke and Naruto) rushed to the "Jonin Lounge" and when they slammed the door open (or at least Sakura), they noticed Kakashi there, reading his pervy book (and we all know what that is)
"K-K-Kakashi-sensei!! W-W-What are y-you doing h-h-here?!?!?!"Naruto studdered
"What do you mean, this is the 'Jonin Lounge' after all" Kakashi replied, pointing at the rather large sign that says "JONIN LOUNGE" in neon light
"Yeah, well, Kakashi, you better get the heck out, we gotta talk to the other senseis about...things" Sasuke said
"Why?" Kakashi said, but then he noticed he was trapped in Shikamaru's Shadow Jutsu which forced him to walk out, so he just walked away
"So, what do you guys wanna talk about, WAIT, this isn't about, "being a man or woman talk", is it?" Asuma asked
"NO!!!!" they all yelled at the same time "This is about Kakashi-sensei" Sakura explained
"Oh, hehehe, sorry about that" Asuma apologized
"It's ok, we've already had "the talk", it was kinda life traumatizing and- what am I saying? Anyway, back to the main subject, Kakashi" Sasuke said
They explained that they wanted to see what was under Kakashi's mask
"I don't know, I mean, you aren't the only ones with failed "unmasking attempts" guys...and girls" Kurenai said
Flashback
Asuma, Guy, Kakashi and Kurenai were on a mission together and they were on their way home, but a storm caught to them, so they had to settle inside a cave, Kakashi drifted to sleep reading his book, and while he was sleeping Guy was whispering to Asuma and Kurenai
"Hey, have you ever wondered what's under my eternal rival's mask?"
"Look, Guy, first of all, he's not really your rival, and second, now that you put it that way, after every mission, he invited me and Kurenai at Ichiraku's but we never paid attention to his face" Asuma replied
"Well, now that he's asleep, we could find out" Kurenai said, getting closer to Kakashi, and the other two just followed her, Kurenai lifted up her hand, slowly making its way to Kakashi's mask, but when they only got to see his nose, Kakashi sniffed Asuma's cigarette, woke up and noticed Asuma, Guy and Kurenai looking at him
"Guys, what're you doing?" Kakashi asked
"Uh, look, a sale on Make-Out Paradise books!!" Asuma yelled
Kakashi didn't believe him, but looked anyway, then Kurenai cast a genjutsu spell on him, causing him to forgetting everything they did
"Phew, that was close" Kurenai said
Flashback End
"See" Kurenai said
"Although, if we try again, I can get another point in our rivalry board" Guy said with confidence
"Guy, for the last time, he's not your rival" Asuma said, causing Guy to be upset "But we'll help you anyway, you know what they say, 23rd times the charm!" he added
"You guys attempted 23 times" Naruto asked
"Actually, just 22, he means this will be our 23rd time" Kurenai explained
"Alright, then, let us officially commence 'Operation: Unmask'!" Naruto said, putting a hand in fron of him, hoping everyone else would join him, but they all just replied
"NO!!!"
