Olly- The chapter is actually called, The Real Reason Behind Gaara's Father's Death but since we couldn't fit that... we had to make do with the title seen in the bubble chapter thingy
Sifl- great definition of it Olly (claps sarcastically)
Olly- It's a GREAT definition!
Mojo- Your FACE is a great definition
Sensei- Why God... why?
Narrator's P.O.V. ('Cause I'm that awesome)
After a long relaxing trip to the spa, Gaara's father finally returned home... to discover that he was no longer Kazekage and he has a daughter-in-law.
Gaara's Father's P.O.V.
WTH!? I go away for a week, a FREAKIN week! And everything changes! 'Don't worry sir, everything will be just the way you left it when you come back sir'. My ass it is! I'm not really mad about being replaced by my son... but the fact that he is married to that hyper-active psychopath who now has a former Akatsuki member for an ambassador/bodyguard disturbs me. I mean... imagine if they bred.. (shudders)... (Gaara/Kim: We are not dogs!) Something has to be done about her... as long as she's within Suna... I can't do anything because of that Deidara character... and Gaara... but outside of the village... she will be helpless... Muhahahaha!
Kim's P.O.V.
I think it's about time I reconciled with Gaara's father. As much as I may dislike him, he is my father-in-law now. Oh hey, here he comes now! "Hey Dad!" I cheerfully called. GAWD! That was hard to say! "Don't call me that," he growled. "Okay!" I forced myself to beam at him. "Look I think we may have gotten off on the wrong foot. So... how about we go on a little father-daughter hunt?" He asked. "I thought you didn't want me to- "I don't! But... well... you know what I mean!" He gets agitated easily. "Look it'll be just a morning thing, okay?" I think I've seen this somewhere before (Shrek 2) and in the movie you always listen to the old people! (Gaara's Father- who is she calling old!) "Okay! Where shall we meet?" "The old tree," he stated smugly. "Umm... we're in the desert... there are no trees," I reminded. "Right... by the sand dune." "Okay! I'll bring Blade!" and by Blade I mean Deidara-san and Blade.
Gaara's P.O.V.
The house is quiet... too quiet... Something's not right... Kim and my father haven't started arguing yet... I'd better ask Kim's babysitter, I mean, bodyguard. "Deidara!" I yelled. "Yeah? What is it?" Oh... he was already here... "Why is it so quiet?" I asked. "Oh, Kim and your dad are going hunting tomorrow. I will be attending of course with Blade and Fukoda... something about starting over with a clean slate," he informed me. "Fukoda... isn't he the..." "GAARA!! WHY AREN'T I AN AUNT YET!?" So much for quiet - -'
Naruto's P.O.V. (Now in Konoha)
Krista is now under room arrest and I have the very important mission of watching the TV 24/7!! "Naruto, do a good job (for once) okay?" Kathryn said, leaving the room. I looked at the TV with Krista in that room. She looked so sad... :(... "I was only trying to help..." WOAH! I can hear her voice! "Krista! I'm watching you!!! I know that kind of sounds creepy but it's my mission for the Hokage!!" I told her. "That's AMAZING!" "Yes I am amazing!!" Mojo beamed from beside me. WOAH! When did she get here!? "About five seconds ago," she told me when I asked, "I was bored with torturing the Akatsuki, and Suna's so far away, so I came here to chill with Kathryn." "What about me?" Krista asked, looking up at the camera with teary eyes. "You're under room arrest, I can't visit or hang with you," she explained. "You don't love me!!" best buddy wailed, running away from the camera. "Don't worry best buddy Krista! I'll hang with you!" I yelled racing out the door... or at least I would have raced out the door if it had not been for Neji reminding em that watching the monitors was my mission. "And it's the hardest most painful mission of my life," I cried in response to the heartless Hyuuga.
Back in Suna (The next morning) Kim's P.O.V.
YEAH! I'm going hunting with Gaara's Dad! Wow... that's sad... this is going to be the longest morning of life! Luckily I invited Blade and Deidara-san, who invited Fukoda-dono, who invited Crow-kun, who invited Kankuro-san, who invited Temari-chan, who politely declined but referred Baki-san, who invited his best buddy whose name I cannot spell or pronounce. We're a hearty crew, looking forward to the hunt... not to find that sand dune... in a desert... ... ... this could be difficult. Um... I'll let Baki-san lead... just so we don't get lost...
A Couple of Hours Later Blade's P.O.V.
Guess what... we're lost! Big surprise. Sister doesn't really seem to want to go see brother's father, but I don't think she likes being lost any better. I think I'll take the lead. This was something I taught Puppy back at Kathryn's house, super tracking skills of unloved people. He perfected it so quickly, I was so proud. You know... I kinda miss the runt. He gave me something more to do than sleeping, eating, and bothering brother.
Krista's P.O.V.
I'm so alone... AGAIN with the loneliness!! Why can't Kathryn or Mojo be alone once in a while! Oh wait, Puppy's here... I'M NOT ALONE!!! I hugged the gigantic puppy, "You've made me so happy!" Puppy woofed in happiness and licked my face. He's so cute!
Deidara's P.O.V.
FINALLY! I see Gaara's father standing at the top of a dune. Kim and her dog, who I've come to enjoy the company of, ran towards the dune. "Wow," Kim sighed, "that was so hard! Why couldn't you have chosen somewhere else to meet... somewhere that there is not an abundance of other places of the exact same type of." "What the hell! Who are all these people!?" Gaara's father demanded. "Oh!" Kim began, "this is Blade, and Deidara-san, and Fukoda-dono, and Crow-kun, and Kankuro-san, and..." "I know who they are!" the former Kazekage snapped. "Well, you asked," argued Kim, getting a little agitated by his attitude. She began to storm closer to him... she had better look out for that ro... AHH! She tripped! Now she and Gaara's father are falling! I gotta do something! I raced off to get Gaara.
Kim's P.O.V.
Just like that I was falling, tumbling, spinning. Sand was flying everywhere, I couldn't see anything. IT BURNED! Finally, the tumbling stopped. I opened my eyes slowly, my mind still spinning. "Are you okay, Kim-sama?" I heard Baki-san's voice above me. The world was twirling so much... I couldn't make anything out. A cold, wet nose pressed against my face, signalling Blade's arrival at the bottom of the dune. I heard him whimper sympathetically at me, urging me to rise. Which I tried to do and only ended up falling again. "Perhaps you should take it easy until Gaara-sama arrives," Baki-san suggested. Wow... I just realized that Baki-san and I were speaking wit suffixes... odd... well... NOT ANYMORE!! MUHAHAHAHA!!!
Krista's P.O.V.
You know, now that I am no longer alone, being under room arrest isn't that bad, "What do you think Kimmy and Blade are up to?" I casually asked. Puppy whimpered at Blade's name, I think he misses his sensei. Poor Puppy, I know how that feels! Sniff... When sensei left me to go to Vegas with Neji... sniff... I never felt so betrayed! "Why sensei? WHY!?"
Kathryn's P.O.V.
I decided to check on Naruto and Krista just to make sure he hadn't helped her escape. - -# Naruto fell asleep at the monitors, the fool! "Why sensei? WHY!?" I heard Krista wail. What the deuce? "You know why you're in there, stop complaining," I ordered through the microphone. "Yeah," Mojo's voice came beside me. Apparently she followed me. "Next time, don't trick Kathryn into signing missions much to high a level for you," she scolded. "B-but I-I didn't," Krista sniffed, "I asked her to sign and she didn't look at it. I didn't even know it was A plus plus minus plus ranked. And that was not what I was crying about!" "Oh," both Moj and I stated, guiltily, "then what were you crying about?" "When you deserted me to go to Vegas!" she cried. BLOODY HELL! That was years ago! "By God, Krista, get over it!"
Kankuro's P.O.V.
Deidara came back, towing Gaara and Temari behind him. By this time, we have assessed that dad was dead and Orochimaru arrived, curious as to what all the noise was about moments ago. Kim managed to sit up without falling over and Fukoda proceeded to poke dad's body with a stick he found... no one seemed to care about dad's death or the poking of his body. Everyone was crowded around Kim, questioning and making noise over her... Temari making the most noise. "OMG!? Are you okay!? Will this affect the process of me becoming an aunt in ANY way?" she cried frantically. Gaara and Kim, but mostly Gaara, ignored her outbursts and demandings. She's such a loud person.
Gaara's P.O.V.
It was a bit of a relief that no one was hurt... well no one important for that matter. Now the real question is how did this happen? (Not to mention, although I am overjoyed by his death, it is expected of me to seek revenge for my father's death). "Is my beloved Kathryn's student okay?" a voice hissed. HIM! Of course! It had to be him! Who else would it be? I have six eye witnesses, excluding Kim and including Blade. "This attack on the former Kazekage and an honoured citizen will not go unnoticed Orochimaru, " I growled. He looked at me like I was crazy. Baki blinked at me and moved to say something, but Deidara interrupted him. "Yes! He did it! He pushed your wife and father down the dune. He was so fast I didn't have a chance to stop him. Overcome with worry for your dear wife's fate, I rushed to fetch you." By Buddha, he's over dramatic. Orochimaru carried a 'what the hell' look on his face. "I hereby declare war on the L.O.S." I decreed. At this Orochimaru fumed, "I did not kill your father! And why would I try to kill Kim? She is Lee's stalkee. Tell him!" The last part was directed at Kim who looked dazed. "What?" she asked. "Tell him how your father-in-law died!" "Oh... well... I guess it's how Deidara said it went. I didn't really see... I just remember falling." Orochimaru looked shocked. "Very well," he growled... or hissed I guess... since he's a snake and all, "if it's war you want, a war you shall get!" And with that, he marched away.
Mojo's P.O.V.
"I think it's a great idea!" I agreed with Kathryn. "Then it's settled, to celebrate Krista not getting in trouble while under room arrest, we shall order food at Hokage mansion," she grinned, "I'll go tell her." We went back into the monitor room, pushing the still sleeping Naruto out of the wheeling chair as soon as we entered. "Krista," Kathryn spoke into the mic. "Yeah?" came a timid response. "To celebrate your obedience and calmness, you may leave your room and come to my mansion. I'm ordering Pizza..."
In Krista's Mind
bold Kathryn's voice
Pizza... pizza... pizza...
Back to Mojo's P.O.V.
"WAAAAAHHHHHH!" Krista screamed in horror. "Don't worry, " I assured, "I'm going to be there so you won't have to eat like ten pieces." "No force-fed pizza?" she asked. "Nope, eat at your own pleasure," I grinned. "YAY!!" Naruto, who had finally come around, looked at us in confusion, "what are you doing here?" "You have completed you mission," Kathryn informed, "we no longer are in need of your services." Naruto's confused expression turned into a bright grin. "Yahooo!" he cheered. "Oh! Sensei! Can best buddy Naruto come?" Krista asked. Kathryn sighed, "sure why not." Oh man, this is going to be more chaotic than when the Hurricane Twins are together. "That's impossible Moj," Kathryn stated. "No one causes more chaos than the Hurricane Twins," Krista finished.
Sifl- I'm sure some of you may be confused by the pizza thing... it is a true story... when sensei, Olly, and I would get together, sensei would order pizza (two usually) and she hates having left overs...
Olly- the problem being that each of us could only eat like two pieces each so...
Sifl- Sensei would force us to eat the other pizza... it got to the point where whenever Sensei told us she was ordering pizza... Olly and I would cringe in fear.
Olly- but see when Mojo is with us it's different... 'cause she's a bottomless pit
Sifl- OLLY! That makes her sound like she's fat! (which she's not... she just can eat like 5 pieces on average)
Olly- R&R
