Skater Girls And Playboys

Chapter Five


Pp1147: HOLY GUACAMOLE! I GOT NINE MORE REVIEWS! NINE! I WAS LIKE 'CHAAAAAAAAAAAA!'

Any who...

Kankuro: So let me get this straight. You wouldn't make Kankuro x Tenten happen?

Pp1147: For the last flippin' time, NO! Now just do the disclaimer before I replace you with...with...SHINO! YEAH! SHINO! I'm pretty sure you don't like him; he pretty much beat you up in the Forest Of Death!

Kankuro: FINE! Pp1147 do-

Pp1147: NO! WAIT! *Waves arms frantically* I forgot to show the results for Temari's date to the dance! Ahem. These are the results:

Shino: 4

Lee: 0

Kiba: 2

Choji: 1

OC: 2

Sai: 1

Now I know what you're all thinking; since when was Sai a choice? Well he's been a choice since now. Deal with it.

And since nobody has gotten five votes yet, Temari's date to the dance is still a mystery! And it will remain a mystery until someone gets five votes.

I dedicate this chapter to: Ayrmed, sparkysilverglass, neko-chan619, MusicLover463, Purple90schild, Freedom its2l8, Katsuyne-Kazunami, LesMislover2013, and dark the emo queen!

There. Now you can do the disclaimer.

Kankuro: *Huff* Pp1147 does not own Naruto.


Gaara, Kankuro, Akira, and Tenten groaned as Ino pulled them into yet another store. So far, only Ino had found a dress, and they had been searching for two hours already.

"Hey, Akira!" Kankuro whispered in her ear.

"Hm?"

"Wanna ditch Ino? Gaara, Tenten, and I are gonna go to the arcade!"

Akira grinned and nodded her head. "Definitely!"

"Okay, when they turn the corner, run for the escalator and duck, so they won't see you. Got it?"

She nodded and gave him a thumbs up. "Got it."

"OOH! I know the perfect store to get your dress, Temari-chan!" Ino yelled excitedly before turning the corner.

Akira made a mad-dash for the escalator, the other three right behind her. As soon as she made it there, she plopped down on one of the steps, so Ino and the others wouldn't see her. I mean, come on! Her hair was bright purple and green for Pete's sake!

On the step below her sat Tenten, and on the next one sat the two Sabaku brothers. When they reached the second floor, they peered over the edge of the glass fence, watching as the others kept walking to where ever they were headed.

"HA! TO THE ARCADE!" Kankuro exclaimed, thrusting a finger in the opposite direction.

"Kankuro, it's this way," Gaara said, pointing in the direction Tenten and Akira were headed.

"Oh. I knew that."

"Whatever."


Akira's and Tenten's eyes lit up at the sight of all the games. They ran in, followed by Gaara and Kankuro.

"Ooh! Let's play Guitar Hero Tennie-chan!" Akira squealed as she ran over and picked up one of the guitars.

Tenten pouted. "Ne, Aki-chan. You know I suck at that game."

Akira pouted aswell. "Ne, will one of you guys play with me? Pleeaasse?"

Kankuro shook his head. "Sorry, I'm no good at that game either. But Gaara here rocks." He suggested, pointing his thumb at the red-head.

Akira's eyes brightened. "Will you play with me, Gaara? None of the other girls are any good at this game, so I never get a real challenge."

Gaara shrugged. "Sure. I never get a real challenge either."

"YES! You are going to DIE! I am the MASTER at this game!" Akira stated, pointing at Gaara.

Gaara smirked. "We'll see."


"Let's play...PING PONG!" Tenten exclaimed, pointing at a ping-pong table.

Kankuro looked at her confused. "Do you even know how to play ping-pong?"

Tenten puffed out her cheeks, which Kankuro thought was the cutest thing ever.

"Of course I do!" Tenten protested, dragging him to the table.

Kankuro sighed, but couldn't help it and grinned. 'Wonder how Gaara's doing...'


Gaara stared at Akira from the corner of his eye. She was glaring at the screen with determination clearly written on her face. Her eyes were narrowed, her mouth set in a firm line. Her fingers danced across the buttons as she watched the screen.

He turned his attention back to screen as a small crowd started form around them. He was not about to lose to a girl, let alone in public.

It was on.


Kankuro yelped as he barely dodged the ball, which he was pretty sure Tenten had aimed at his eye.

"I told you I knew how to play!" Tenten shouted.

"That wasn't playing! You just hit the ball really hard!"

"Oh that's it!" Tenten said as she reached for another ball.

A crowd had begun to form around the two, as if they were attracted by their screams and yells.

Kankuro narrowed his eyes as he barely managed to hit the ball back.

Oh it was so on.


Gaara bit his lip as his fingers flew across the different colored buttons. When Akira said she was the master at this game, she wasn't kidding. But he was a master at this game too, and if he lost, he would never hear the end of it from Kankuro.

The two paid no heed to the cheering crowd, both determined not to lose. He cursed as he missed a note, putting Akira in the lead by a point or two.

Akira silently cheered as Gaara missed a note, putting her ahead by a point or two. She bit her lip, knowing that wouldn't be enough to beat him, considering how good he was. Akira mentally screamed and killed herself as she missed two notes, putting Gaara in the lead.

They were reaching the final notes of the song, when Akira scared the crap out of everyone. The two teenagers had been silent the whole time, so when she yelled, "IF I SAY YOU'RE GONNA DIE, YOU'RE GONNA DIE! I WILL WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN!", and unleashed some crazy combo, you can imagine how startled they were.

Gaara gaped as he watched her get ahead of him by ten points, thus officially beating him, and him 'dying'.


"YES! I WIN! WOO-HOOOOOOOOO! I AM THE CHAMPIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNN!" Tenten cheered as she threw her paddle to the side, hitting some random guy in the face.

Kankuro lay on the floor, panting. He had no idea that Tenten could be so...fast! And that she could hit so hard!

Okay, so maybe he did know she could hit hard...and be fast...

But he didn't think she was so good at ping-pong! He was pretty sure she was on steroids.

"Come on, Kankuro! Let's go watch Akira and Gaara!" Tenten called, waving at him.

Kankuro groaned as he got up off of the floor to follow the hyper girl. "Hyper on steroids," Kankuro mumbled as he followed her.

Kankuro's eyes widened as they reached their two companions. Akira was hopping around the place and waving her arms around like a hyperactive kangaroo. 'Are they all on steroids?!'

He glanced at the screen which resulted in his jaw dropping to the ground.

Gaara...had...lost?

He turned his attention to his sulking brother, who had his arms crossed over his chest.

"Um...Gaara? You know I'm never gonna let you live this down...right?"

Gaara glared at him, and he immediately backed off.

Gaara looked at Akira, who had stopped jumping around, and took a good look at her. Her shiny purple hair cascaded down her back, and the streaks of electric green seemed as if they lit up under the light. Her black eyes shone and sparkled, unlike Sasuke's; they were always empty and cold. Her smile was like Tenten's; it lit up the room, and others around her smiled back. It was contagious.

He had never noticed how...pretty, she looked.

His eyes widened and he quickly shook his head. He barely even knew her!

"Come on, Gaara! We're gonna go to the food court!" Akira called out, waving at him from the doorway, smiling.

Gaara cracked a smile and headed towards them. 'Told you it was contagious.'


"I can't believe they ditched us!" Ino screeched, rampaging through the mall. Hinata, Sakura, and Temari followed, scared out of their wits.

Temari glanced up at the second floor and gasped. "Look! They're up there!" She shouted, pointing up to four laughing figures. She couldn't help but notice how...happy Gaara looked, talking with Akira. She smiled.

Ino whipped her head in the direction Temari was pointing at and growled.

"AKIRA KAI AND TENTEN! HOW DARE YOU TWO DITCH ME! AND WITH GAARA AND KANKURO, OF ALL PEOPLE!"

Akira grinned and leaned over the railing. "WE NEEDED A BREAK FROM ALL THE SHOPPING! BESIDES, IT LOOKS LIKE YOU FOUND DRESSES FOR TEMARI, SAKI, AND HINA-CHAN!"

"THAT'S NOT THE PO-" Ino stopped, her eyes widening.

As Akira leaned further out, further than she should have, she felt someone push her from behind.

Her eyes widened as she felt herself falling over the edge. She gave a horrified shriek, followed by, "CRAP!"

"AKIRA!" All the girls shrieked. All the people in the mall gasped, and some screamed.

She reached for the railing, but missed by an inch. She closed her eyes and waited for the impact.

'This is it.' She thought. 'I'm going to die in the mall. I always knew the mall would be the death of me! I told you Ino! Sigh. What a lame way to die. I always hoped I would die in some freak skateboarding accident, ya know? Or on some super dangerous mission! Come on Akira Kai! You're a ninja and you're going to die in the mall! How pathetic! And- hey, wait a minute! Shouldn't I be dead by now? I thought you weren't able to think when you were dead! Wait- what's wrapped around my arm?! Is that a flippin' snake?!'

She opened her eyes in a panic, hoping the snake wouldn't bite her, and looked up. She saw Gaara holding on to her arm, and Kankuro trying to calm Tenten down. Before she could say or do anything, she felt dizzy, and then passed out. The last thing she saw were a pair of cold, coal black eyes and a sinister smirk.


Pp1147: Okay, I am like, sooooooooooooooooo sorry that I haven't updated in weeks. But in my defense, my teachers decided that they were gonna give me a crap-load of homework.

Ahem.

Ooh! Some drama! Yup! So from here on out, this fanfic is Romance/Humor/Drama! XP Who do you think pushed Akira? It is someone from Naruto, and if you guess right, I'll give you a prize!

Okay, I know the boys haven't come out a lot, but it's all part of the plan! Ehehe...
