1zara-uchiha1 and I don't own the Naruto cast or anything else you might recognize. 1zara-uchiha1 owns Laura and I own Kahlan. Together we own the plot.

Chapter 47

Note: Playing a ninja game can result in memory loss, a hangover and sickness.

~Kahlan's POV

I'm starting to think none of the drinks are safe. I really don't want to play, nor do I want Laura to play, but Laura wants to. So I'll play as well to make sure she stays safe.

"You okay Laura," I ask, slightly patting her back.

"I'm –hiccup- fine," she replies with a grin.

"Okay," I reply with a sigh.

"Kakashi," Laura shouts then giggles as the man who took Hinata to her room re-enters. Said man looks at Laura closing the door, so that makes him Kakashi. "I dare –hiccup- you to –hiccup- show everyone what's –hiccup- behind your mask," Laura says in a sing-song.

"That's a good one Laura-chan," Naruto shouts with a grin.

Laura beams happily as everyone in the room slightly leans forwards waiting to see what's behind Kakashi's mask. Obviously it's his face; I don't know why they are all curious.

"I'm sorry," Kakashi says closing his visible eye, and maybe smiling behind his mask. "I'll pass this one up." Kakashi then walks to the table, picks up one of the drinks and takes a seat looking away from people.

"No –hiccup- fair," Laura says with a pout.

"Hmm…Naruto you have thirty seconds to make Killer Bee laugh," Kakashi says in a tone sounding like he doesn't care.

"I will do it, believe it," Naruto says with a grin.

"Yo, you can be so whack but this jinchūriki won't crack, ya fool."

I lean on my palm as Naruto jumps over to stand in front of Killer Bee. Kakashi starts the timer. Naruto tries to tickle but that doesn't work, so Naruto then tries to do some crazy dance which caused me to chuckle a few time. With that not working he went around the room pretending to act like a girl shopping for clothing.

Killer Bee doesn't even crack a smile. A few of the people actually chuckle. I end up shaking my head laughing. Then the timer goes off and Naruto pouts unable to make Killer Bee laugh.

"At least you tried," I say to make him feel better.

"He looked like a fool," Kiba says then barks out laughing.

"Shut up," Naruto says to Kiba as he picks up one of cup. He swallows the drink in one gulp and sticks his tongue out in distaste. "That's nasty. Bee I dare you to take off your glasses!"

"Ohhhhh," Laura says with giggles.

"Ya fool, ya fool Killer Bee accepts so don't get your head in wrap," said man says.

He pulls out a notebook and writes in it for a moment then places it back. With a grin he takes his sunglasses off for about two seconds then places them back on.

"Yo, Kakashi the Copy Cat ninja take your moves against Gaara the Panda Man. Take a chance playing twister it'll be like a trance," Killer Bee says then mumbles something under his breath as he writes in his notebook again. That was just…not that great.

Kakashi sighs as Gaara sits up from the couch. Kakashi easily walks over to where Jiraiya is happily setting twister out again while Gaara stumbles over holding his head. They both take a side and listen to what Jiraiya says after each spin.

The game of twister doesn't last long and Kakashi is the winner. Gaara stays lying on the floor for a moment or two then slowly get up as Kakashi goes back to his seat. Gaara once again stumbles back to the couch.

"Kahlan," Kiba shouts with a grin. "What secret have you never told anyone?"

Immediately my body goes tense. I erase all emotion off my face. It may be a defense mechanism, but my walls are going up. There are secrets that even Laura doesn't know about me. Not because I don't trust her, but because I am ashamed and don't want to be judge.

"None of your business," I reply in a cold tone.

"Jeez no need to be so cold," Kiba says.

"You hardly know me, therefore you shouldn't have asked a personal question," I reply grabbing a random drink.

"What better way to get to know you then by asking a personal question," he retorts.

"It can be used against me," I reply then quickly swallow the drink. My face scrunches up in disgust as the burning liquid travels down my throat. I cough a few times then place the empty cup down.

"Just drop –hiccup- it please," Laura asks with puppy eyes.

"Fine," Kiba replies crossing his arms.

"Hmm…Shizune I dare you to…allow Naruto to do your make-up crazy and…keep it on for three rounds," I say with a shrug. I'm not good with dares and asking questions.

"Okay," Shizune says with an uncertain smile.

"Does anyone in the room have make-up," Jiraiya asks.

"I'll go see if Sakura has any," Kiba says with a grin, then rushes out of the room.

"This will be fun," Naruto says with a grin.

"I'll take –hiccup- a picture," Laura says taking out her phone from somewhere.

"So," Jiraiya says. "What should we do as we wait for Kiba's return?"

"I dare everyone to drink as many drinks as the can until he gets back," Tsunade says.

"Okay," Laura says with a giggle and reaches for a cup.

"I'm going to bed," Gaara says slowly getting up and then makes his exit

One by one everyone starts grabbing cups and drinking the alcohol. Shrugging and knowing after this I will never drink alcohol again; I grab a cup as well and drink along with everyone else. It soon becomes a competition of who can drink the most.

Tsunade starts grabbing glasses in both hands, chugging them down within seconds then grabs more. Jiraiya was more laid back and had a few less than Tsunade. Naruto seems to be having no problem drinking a lot of the alcohol; in fact he has more than Tsunade and yet he still seems sober. Laura is turning into a giggling mess and has only had about four cups total. Shizune looks a bit flushed. Kakashi…I haven't seen him drink any. Killer Bee keeps spewing out crazy rap lines that make no sense.

As for me, I've let my completive side come out and I'm now on my fifteenth cup. I'm slurring my words and giggling like crazy. The room is spinning and things are starting to blur together. Though I feel so warm and like I can take the world on.

"I'm back," Kiba says after however much time it has been holding up a bag.

"Damn Naruto won," Tsunade says then hiccups.

"Aweshum," I say then giggle.

"Kahlan is –hiccup, hiccup- drunk," Laura says then bursts out laughing.

"What took you so long," Naruto asks.

"I had to go out and buy it," Kiba replies. "I got some weird looks too."

"Recoooooooord," I say to Laura while shaking her. "Pleshhhhhhhh."

"O–hiccup-kay," she replies pulling out her phone.

Naruto then starts doing stuff that I don't pay attention to as I grab another drink. I'm feeling too good and giddy to care what Naruto is doing. In fact I think there should be some music playing this is a party.

Getting up from my seat, I stumble over to the radio. I slam my hands on it a few times until it finally turns on. Grinning with pride I turn to everyone.

"Parrrrrrrrrrrrrrtyyyyyyyyyyy yy," I yell then fall to the floor. I look at the floor and my spilt drink. "Meanie floor took my drink," I say with a pout.

"I think you had a little too much to drink," I hear Kakashi say.

"Nooooooooo," I yell glaring at him. "You had too much to drink."

I stumble back up to my feet and start dancing feeling like I'm on cloud nine. It's like I'm experience everything outside my own body. I drink a few more drinks, losing count of how many; there are dares I do and questions I answer that I don't remember for more than five seconds. In fact it all becomes a blur.

I wake up the next morning, with bright light shining right in my face. Groaning, I turn away, burying my face into a pillow. It feels like my body is on fire and someone is taking a jackhammer to my head.

"Good morning," I hear Sakura (at least I think it is) say and I wince as it feels like bells are added to the jackhammer.

"Hush," I mumble into the pillow.

"Sorry," I hear her whisper. "I was informed by Tsunade that I should help look after everyone that was at last night's party."

"What party," I ask, not remembering any party. In fact, I don't remember anything from last night. "Never mind just let me go back to sleep."

"There's breakfast outside the door waiting for you," she replies.

"No," I moan as my stomach twists at the thought of eating anything.

"It would be good if you ate something."

"I don't care."

"Just a bite," she pleads.

Getting piss, I sit up in bed only to hold my head as everything starts spinning. Once it stops I grab the nearest pillow and throw it at her. She easily dodges while catching it.

"I want to sleep" I hiss. "Leave me alone."

"I'm a medical ninja," she starts to say but I cut her off by grabbing a lamp and throwing it. She quickly catches it but ducks from the alarm clock I throw at her. The clock hit the wall and I wince from the loud noise it created, but nothing else. I am determined for her to leave me alone.

"I don't care who you are," I say laying back down and pulling the covers over me. "Just go away."

"Fine," she says. "But you will eat the next time you wake up. In the meantime drink this."

"Whatever," I mumble closing my eyes.

However, even being under the covers, I can still feel the light trying to blind me. With a groan, I push the covers off and sit up. That's when I notice I'm in a room; the one I believe I'm sharing with Sakura and…Hinata. My eyes slightly narrow wondering when and how I got to bed, and how was I able to sleep without something to hold and cuddle.

Shrugging, I climb out of the bed slowly. Carefully I make my way over to the window and close the curtains; stupid annoying sun and its bright light.

Happy, that the light is now covered as best as it can be, I make my way back to the bed. Lying down, I pull the covers over me and try to go back to sleep but it is of no use. I have nothing to hold and cuddle, plus now I'm wondering what the hell happen last night.

Wondering what happen last night doesn't last for long though because I'm quickly launching myself off the bed. The aroma of coffee hits my nose and my stomach twist even worse than the mention of food. I rush to the bathroom, lifting the toilet seat and start puking my guts out.

Argh, whatever has happen last night it caused me not to feel good, and it didn't help with the damn coffee. Oh gosh, the coffee needs to go before the smell takes over the room. Covering my mouth and nose, I walk back out to the beds. On the table is a Styrofoam cup of steaming coffee.

Picking up the coffee, I walk over to the door. Holding my breath, I yank the door open and walk out with a glare. I'm piss to have been awake; to feel like I'm sick, that I can't remember last night and that I was served coffee.

"Don't ever serve me coffee again," I shout and throw the cup into the opposite wall not caring about anything at the moment.

My head starts pounding even worse and another wave of nausea take over causing me to collapse to my knees. With no time to make it to the bathroom I end up puking on the floor. I just know I'm starting to get sick and I hate it. How and why? Because when I'm sick I turn into a crying mess and become clingy; which makes me feel vulnerable and weak. Now, I'm leaning against the doorway whimpering close to tears as someone walks out of one of the rooms. Yeah I'm sick, with a hangover. Curse last night.
