Shikamaru woke up to something poking his ribs. "What?" he hissed.
"Have you seen the baby?" Konohamaru asked.
Shikamaru's eyes snapped open. He sat up, and fixed Konohamaru with a pointed glare. "You lost it?"
Konohamaru smiled sheepishly. "I didn't lose it," he said. "I just can't find it."
Shikamaru frowned. "Well, find it-- I'm not going to be the one explaining to Kurenai why she suddenly is missing a baby." He stood, and began prodding at the bushes nearby hoping that the baby hadn't gone far.
Konohamaru followed after him. "You were watching it too," he said-- he cringed at how whiny his voice sounded. This was Kurenai's baby, if they lost it...!
Shikamaru sighed. "But I distinctly remember asking 'can you watch it while I sleep?', and you saying 'yes'."
Konohamaru frowned. "Shit."

O noes, what will they do? Maybe Kurenai's baby will be found, and raised by stray cats; that would be amusing. Thanks for reading. I hope you like it, and have time to review.
