"Therapy! What do we need therapy for!?" It doesn't take a genius it figure out who that was.

"Because all of you have been acting strange and it's causing you to fail your missions!" Again it doesn't take a genius to guess that was too.

"But is it really necessary for all of us to attend?" Neji said, before Naruto and Tsunade cause start another yelling match.

"Yes," the blond said, crossing her arms under her abnormally large breasts. Naruto looked as through he was about to blow up again, but Tsunade's glare made him silent and he proceed to pout at nothing.

"Well where is the therapist?" Sasuke asked annoyed.

"Here I am!" a voice chirped. The Gennin turned just as a woman walked in. She had long curly vivid red hair, dark hazel eyes, and was wearing a plain shirt and shorts.

"Brats, this is Taimi, and she's going to be your therapist."

"Isn't she a bit young?" Sakura said.

"I know, I know I look like I'm 16 or something, but I'm actually almost 30." She grinned at the shocked faces she got in response, including Tsunade's.

"Well let's not worry about me," she drawled waving a hand around, "this is really about you and the little problems you all have so follow me to the sch- er Academy . . . school." She walked off and they followed.

A

"Right," Taimi sat on a desk staring at the Gennin, who were sitting in the desks, "who wants to go first. Come on don't be shy." Everyone looked at each other, Taimi eyebrow rose. "Is there a problem?"

"No it's just we don't want to do this." Kiba said. Everyone nodded in agreement. Taimi blinked.

"Well hate to break it ito ya, but y'all have no choice. Tsunade told me I had to get you over what ever it is bothering you no matter what it takes, so seeing as no one wants to volunteer I'll pick. Umm Shikamaru," she stared at the brunette slouched in his seat. "Why don't you go first?"

"Why me?" Shikamaru griped.

"You look bored, so entertain yourself by coming up here and telling us what the problem is." Shikamaru sighed, muttered something about being troublesome, and walked to the front.

"Ok tell us your name and state your problem." Shikamaru blinked.

"Why do I have to say my name? Everyone knows it already and you just said . . ." he trailed off when he noticed she was holding something big, black, and shiny is her arms.

"Um," She looked up and smiled.

"Something wrong?"

"Wh-what is that?"

"This little thing?" Shikamaru eyebrows rose at little, "this is called a gun, a M41A Pulse Rifle to be exact. It fires tiny things called bullets and they hurt worst than being cut and/or stabbed by a kunai." Shikamaru stared with slightly wide eyes, everyone else now feared for his life.

"Now then what were you saying before?" she asked pointing the gun at him.

"My name is Shikamaru Nara and I'm addicted to honey." Everyone got over their fear and was now staring at him with question marks over their heads.

"Honey?" Taimi repeated, Shikamaru nodded.

"Yeah honey, I've been eating the stuff all my life."

"When did this happen?" Taimi lowered the weapon, to Shikamaru's relief.

"Back when I was baby. Evidently it can kill a 5-month-old infant if they have more than a teaspoon. My mom went ballistic on my dad after they got me to the hospital; he was the one that gave it to me. When I was old enough to start having it without the worry of dying, I started eating it everyday. It gets really addicting after the first few spoons full. Did you know it's good for your skin, see mines. "

He held his arm out for everyone to see. His skin was a near perfect shade of honey.

"Wow," Taimi whispered, grabbing his arm to peer at his skin better, "And it's soft too." She moved to his face staring hard, "And your skin is completely flawless. Amazing!"

"Yeah eating that stuff has it perks." Shikamaru shrugged. Taimi nodded ruefully releasing his arm.

"Oh it's gonna be a shame making you stop." Taimi said, and then she grinned.

"Okay, let me see," Taimi grabbed a bag at her side and started digging in, while Shikamaru stared at the wall, "aha got it." He looked at her and stared at the ropes she was holding.

"What are those for?"

"To help with your addiction." She chirped sliding off the desk, "See people who have addictions have withdrawal symptoms. Do you?" Shikamaru nodded. "Good then is this will be easy. I think the only quick way to get over your addiction is to get over your withdrawal symptoms, if you don't have them then you want have the need to eat honey anymore!"

"That makes sense I guess." Shikamaru said, "But what's the rope for, again?"

"To help keep you planted in your seat when the withdrawal symptoms start." Shikamaru gave her one last look before running. And she followed.

The next ten minutes was spent with Taimi and Shikamaru running around the room the shouting things to each other; Taimi trying to catch Shikamaru like he was a cow running, while she was the cowgirl. When she finally did rope him, she dragged him to a chair and tied him to it. Shikamaru was grumbling under his breath as this went on, glaring at everyone else as they made no effort to help him when he was running.

"Alright," Taimi sat down on the desk once again panting from chasing Shikamaru, "who want to be next?" Looks were exchanged, and she sighed. "Fine I'll pick again, hmm, Sasuke."

"What."

"Get up here and tell us what's wrong."

"Nothing and it is not any of your business." Taimi's eye twitched.

"Ok I can see you're going to be difficult, lucky I brought this." She dug through her bag again and pulled out a small gun, pointed at Sasuke and said, "Don't move." Sasuke didn't even have time to blink before a sharp pain made him cry out and clutch his arm.

"What did-" He started before slumping onto the desk. Sakura and Ino promptly freaked out, Hinata gasped in horror before fainting, Naruto started screaming at Taimi, and everyone else just sat in shock.

"Wa-was that really necessary?" Neji said, in horror. Taimi nodded.

"Yes otherwise he wouldn't talk."

"HE'S NOT TALKING NOW!" Naruto was shrieking.

"Naruto will you shut up!" Everyone stared in awe as Sasuke lifted his head the desk and glared at Taimi, who was grinning.

"Welcome back to the world of the living, Sasuke."

"Shut up! What did you do me?"

"Just a little something called, 'I'm up to no good'" Sasuke's eyes glazed over. Everyone stared in horrified fascination.

"What's wrong with Sasuke?" Sakura asked.

"He's under my control," Taimi said simply motioning for Sasuke to walk to the front. He stood moving to the front of the room and turned to the group.

"State you name and whatever's the hell wrong with you." Taimi said. Sasuke nodded and blinked.

"My name's Sasuke Uchiha and I hate my hair." Question marks shot up all over the place. Taimi blinked many times before saying,

"Say that again."

"I hate my hair."

"Why?" She crossed her arms. 'This ought to be good.'

"Because it always sticks up in the back and is never flat." And suddenly Sasuke's eyes were clear and he was growling, "And it's a dead giveaway when I'm out on missions, I mean the last mission I was on I nearly got my head ran through by a kunai cause the enemy saw the back of my head when I was doing a stake out. Oh and don't even get me started on the how everyone thinks it's so cool to have hair like this! It is stupid! It is ridiculous! This will get you killed on missions!" Sasuke ranted and raved about his spiky hair, flailing his arms, making weird gestures, and for some reason he kept saying it was his brother's fault his hair ended up like was.

Everyone just sat listening until the Uchiha ran out of things to say. Which he did, like half-hour later.

"Hey Sasuke, do feel any better?" Taimi asked, Sasuke nodded.

"Okay, to solve your problem I think you should rap your hair at night."

"What good will that do?" Sasuke grumbled.

"It'll get rid of that duck butt you got." Sasuke scowled at her and sat down. Naruto leaned over and said,

"Wow Sasuke I didn't know you hated your hair so much."

"Shut up Naruto."

"Alright," the redhead said flipping her hair back, "Who wants to go next?" Glances were exchanged, Taimi's eye twitched. "Ok so I hafta choose again. Fine. Kiba you're up."

"Huh why do I-"

"Get up here!" Kiba scrambled to his feet tripping to the front of the room. "Good now state your name and tell us your problem and don't lie." Kiba nodded.

"OK my name is Kiba Inuzuka and I'm addicted to . . ."

"Say it!" Taimi snarled, whipping out a rolled up newspaper. Kiba cried,

"I'M ADDICTED TO EMO THINGS!" Everyones mouths dropped. Taimi blinked a big question mark over her head.

"Say wha!"

"I'm addicted to emo things." Kiba repeated staring at the newspaper warily, Taimi scratched her head.

"Ok I got to hear this, how did this happen?"

"Right, so the other month I heard this song called The Emo Song, and I was like wondering what it's like to be emo. So I started being emo. I like got every emo song there is out there, I painted my room black, I actually bought a collar for myself, one of those studded collars, and the other day I got this black hair dye and I'm about to dye my hair black."

Everyone stared at Kiba in complete shock as he continued listing all the things he's done to be emo. By the time he finished, an hour later, everyone was just gaping at him.

"What?"

"Kiba you are a lost cause," Taimi breathed, "You cannot be saved."

"Meh I don't care," Kiba said shrugging, "I can stop when I ready."

"No you can't," Taimi shook her head, "Once you're emo you can never go back."

"Well I guess I'll stay emo then. That's okay right?"

"Yeah sure whatever." Taimi waved him off and Kiba sat down.

Taimi rubbed her eyes and sighed, "Alright little people your time is up, we'll meet up again some time during the week so get lost." The Gennin muttered under their breath as they stood walking out but a cry made them stop.

"Hey! HEY AREN'T YOU FORGETING SOMETHING!"

"Oh yeah, Shikamaru, have the symptoms started?"

"No but-"

"Then you are stuck here until they do. Don't worry I'll come everyday to check on you."

"Wait you mean you're not staying!"

"No sweetie I gotta go home and fed my cats, I have a lot of them so it will take a while. But don't worry I'll be back in say, oh 6 six hours."

"SIX HOURS!"

"Yeah it'll go by is a flash and I'll be back so just sit tight and I'll return." Taimi said pushing the others out the room. "See ya then!"

"NO DON'T LEAVE ME! HEY DO YOU HEAR ME COME BACK! INO! CHOJI!" Shikamaru shouts could be heard even after they left the Academy.

"Do you think we should go back Ino?" Choji asked as Shikamaru yelling grew faint.

"Nah Taimi said she'd go back I think we can trust her." Ino chirped.

The thing was, you couldn't trust her. She forgot about Shikamaru busying herself feeding her cats then playing with them. She didn't go back the next day or the day after that. Only when Ino and Choji came running to her yelling and carrying a half-1conscious Shikamaru did she remember. That and the fact Shikamaru's mother chased her through the village for nearly having him starve. Taimi never got over that and ducked everytime she thought she caught sight of Shikamaru's mother.

Sasuke took her advice and rapped his hair at night. To his surprise, it actually worked and now his hair has lost the duck butt in the back. The only downside was that no one seemed to recognize him. The first day of his missing spikes, Naruto and Sakura had no idea who he was as they arrived; he had his back facing them. Upon seeing, in their opinion, the unknown person they starting yelling and screaming for him to 'Get lost! This is our meeting place!'

Sasuke turned to snarl at them to shut up, when they realized who he was and Sakura started to apologize, Naruto just stood scratching his head in confusion bluntly proclaiming, "What the hell did you do to your hair?" Sakura yelled at him to apologize, while trying to punch his head in. Sasuke just walked off while Naruto whined to Sakura. For the rest of the day Sasuke wandered around in a bitter happy mood. You know, the emo happy.

As for Kiba, he continued being emo. He decided, since everyone now knew about his obsession, to wear his new collar the next day, he replaced his jacket with a black version, he painted his nails black, wore some wristbands he bought, after the therapy session, and he dyed his hair black, styling it by pulling some of his hair to the right wear it fell into his face, you know emo bangs. Hinata upon seeing him, almost didn't realize who he was until she saw Akamaru at his feet. She was so shocked seeing him she did the most un-Hinataish thing anyone could do. She screamed, "Kiba what the hell did you do to yourself!"

Kiba freaked out, "Hinata! Is this too much?" He turned in a circle so she could see and absentmindedly flicked his hair out his face as it tickled his nose, "I kinda thought so but I wasn't so sure. You know what, I'll go and take some of this off. I'll be back." And he ran off muttering before Hinata could placate him.

So in all, Taimi didn't do much to change the Gennin she was suppose to help. Shikamaru still ate honey, and Kiba was still emo, his new personality did nothing to help on the missions, Sasuke got over his problem, so she at lease did something to help. Tsunade wasn't happy and fired Taimi, the redhead just shrugged and went on with her life, hiding from Shikamaru's mother, who was still out for her blood, and avoiding Sakura and Ino, who were mad at her for making it harder to find Sasuke, the duck butt really made him stand out.

The End.

That's all minna-sama. Not much to say but review please. See ya next chapter!
