The next day, the caravan was headed through a slim mountain pass, and that made Kiba jumpier than normal. Robert noticed that and snuck up behind Kiba. Kiba, not realizing Robert there, was busy talking to Akamaru, trying to calm himself, then Robert lit a small explosive behind Kiba that went off with a loud BANG! Needless to say, Kiba was pissed at him and threw knife at him, which were blocked with the greatest of ease.
"Dammit! Don't do that! Places like this make me uneasy!"
"Whatever, pussy." Robert said with a slight laugh in his voice.
"Wrong, I'm a bitch, there's a difference! Wait a minute, did I say what I think I… AAARRGGH! Dammit!"
Robert was back up front laughing himself stupid.
"Robert, that was cruel. He's your teammate, right? Treat him like one." Yuuki scolded.
"Yeah, yeah, I know. It was still funny though."
Yuuki sighed and slapped Robert on the back of the head.
Isn't my father paying you guys to guard us? Do your job and stop playing around all the time." Yuuki said with an irritated tone in her voice.
"Come on, you know I'm good at multitasking." Robert said with a grin.
Yuuki then started to blush and said "You will not speak of that in public."
"You know you like it" Robert said grinning harder, which warranted, in Yuuki's opinion, another hit on the back of the head.
"Your just like a child. Always playing around. You really need to act your age, Robert."
"Alright, I'll act my…" Robert fell silent and turned his head up the wall. He knew something was up there, but he didn't know what. "I'm checking something out. Stay here." Robert told Yuuki as he readied himself to jump up the 100 meters up to the top of the canyon.
"I'll signal if I need you, okay?" He then kissed her on the lips and leaped the height in on push. When he got up there, he was surrounded by a stone cage.
"You, there. What business do you have here? Answer wrong, and we will kill you." Said a voice that Robert could not see the source.
"Really, how are you gonna do that? I'm one the most powerful ninja in my village. Do you think that I would go down without a fight?" Just then, Kiba and Akamaru came up and freed Robert with their Fang Over Fang Jutsu. "Not the one I was calling, but you will do. Thanks Kiba."
"If they kill you, I won't have anyone to pull pranks on."
"Whatever, you know you love me." Robert said in a joking manner.
"Not the way you loved Yuuki, though." Kiba said kicking a guy in the gut,
"I made sure that it was locked before that. How did you find out?" Robert asked while slashing his way through several people at once.
"You seem to forget, dogs have keener senses than people." Kiba answered while knocking a guy off his feet then sent him flying into ten other people.
"Really. How?" Robert asked again while sending at least 27 thieves flying back with a wave of stone.
"I snuck in the middle through the top." He admitted while finishing off the last five on his end.
"I knew it. I really need to lock all the doors next time." Robert said to himself while walking up to the leader holding a blood covered sword in his right hand.
The leader was covering against a rock and was whimpering. "Please, don't kill me. I'll do anything."
"Kill, I…"
"What my friend, here was going to say, we want you to stay out of this pass and never attack anyone again." Kiba said with an evil look on his face.
"I'll do it. Please, don't kill me."
"Come on. We gotta catch up. We lost a lot of time dealing with these idiots."
"Why did you lie. We didn't kill them?"
"Yeah, I know. Doesn't mean he did. Besides, we change his life for the better."
If scaring the shit out of him is changing his life for the better, then you did a hell of a job, Kiba.
Down with the caravan, Yuuki was sitting there, waiting for Robert to come back. I wonder what kind of trouble he had to pull himself out of. I'm starting to get worried. Just then, some one landed on the cart behind her. "Oh, Robert. How did it go? What was up there that you needed help with?"
"Nothing much. Just a bunch of thieves, some of which could use ninjutsu."
"Is that the reason you called me up there?"
"Yep." Robert said rather emotionlessly, which made Yuuki lean over and stare into his face.
"Nope, nothing going on in there." Yuuki said, causing Robert to look at her with a somewhat confused look.
"Really, now. Looks like you're cut off tonight."
"You're joking! Right?"
"Maybe, maybe not. It's your call." Robert said crossing his arms and grinning at her.
"Now, that's just mean." she in her pouty voice.
"If you want it tonight, you have to guess correctly before dinner tonight."
"Now that's just über mean." She said pouting even more.
"Just kidding." Robert said with a grin on his face.
"Ugh, now you're not getting any of this tonight." She said indicating to herself.
"Yes, but if I don't get any, then that means the same with you. Now doesn't it?"
Yuuki knew he was right, she just kissed him on the lips and whispered in his ear: "I guess we'll see tonight then, wouldn't we." She then backed off with a smile.
Kiba is sitting there trying to find his movie camera in his bag and is searching franticly. Damn, I can't find my damn camera. How am I to record them for the future if I can't find it. That shit is hot. Better than that cheap crap Jiraiya writes.
Robert looked back and started to laugh. "Dip shit can't find his camera to record up. And that's the way I want it." Robert said holding up Kiba's camera. "You can't find what's not there." Yuuki then joined him in laughing at Kiba because of him trying to find his camera in vain. "He ain't gonna watch us again.
