Kathryn's P.O.V.
If anyone were to say that they had the coolest friends in the world, I would easily prove them wrong at this meeting. First off, I had the entire squad of Sailor Scouts, Kira, Athrun, Mwu, and Andrew Waltfeld –AKA Waffles for Kimba and I- from Gundam Seed, the members of the Ouran High School Host Club, the characters from Tales of Symphonia, and the guys from Beyblade. Yes, my allies are great in numbers. Even angels from Derris Kharlan answer my call. But there are still others I must contact, even my phone that can make calls across dimensions has its limits.
"What will you do, Kathryn?" Stephanie asked, with man-whore beside her. "I must go to the other dimensions… and seek out more allies," I said. "Excellent idea sensei!" Krista cheered. "But who will watch over Konoha while you are away?" Iruka asked, "Neji?" "No… while Shikamaru and I are gathering my other allies-" "Why is Shikamaru going with you?" Krista demanded. "Yeah, why me?" Shikamaru echoed. "Because, scrub, he is the first one to become a chunin," I explained, "as I was saying before I was rudely interrupted. I will leave Mojo in charge while I am away."
"Why her!?" demanded Krista with a wail, "she doesn't even live here!" "She has experience as a leader," I stated. "So do I!" argued Krista. "You were only Hokage for five seconds! That does not count!" I cleared my throat, regaining my composure, "Neji, I will leave you here to monitor how Mojo handles things… don't let things get too out of control." Neji nodded as I handed him a note labeled, read once Mojo gets here.
"Come, Shikamaru, we're leaving," I said, flipping out my cell and calling Mojo. Of course she was happy to comply, leaving Itachi to monitor the Akatsuki's training. I turned on my walky talky that can keep a signal even across dimensions. "If there's any trouble, you know how to reach me," I told Neji. And with that I opened my portal to a different dimension. "What a drag," was the last thing Shikamaru said before stepping into the world of Dragon Ball Z.
Mojo's P.O.V.
Kay, cool. Neji walked up to me, "I have one last order from Kathryn before she left," he said, opening a piece of paper. "Dear Neji, please put Krista in charge of keeping tabs on all the people who are participating in the war. I don't want her to feel left out. Signed, Kathryn… PS. Send a letter to Gaara in my name saying that I'm transferring some of the arrivals over to Suna." That's sweet, at least it won't get to crowded in the office anymore… hey what's this!? It's a drawer labeled 'When Noobs Don't Listen'. Hmm there's just a button in it… I wonder what it does?
Naruto's P.O.V.
I was helping Konohamaru perfect the sexy nin-jutsu when all of a sudden a giant Mojo head appeared in the middle of Konoha! "AWESOME!" Mojo's head said, "this is like The Wizard of Oz… I want everyone in front of the Hokage tower in ten minutes or else I will send the Akatsuki after all of you!" Gulp… we'd better go.
Mojo's P.O.V.
Well, that was fun. "Mojo… you can't say things like that," Neji said after giving Krista her instructions. "Shut up, I'm Hokage!"
Krista's P.O.V.
Well, since I was given this amazing new mission from sensei, I wanted to do a really good job. This was my first mission since the one I went on with Kimmy. Umm… let's see, I have to keep tabs on them right so… AH! I know!
(moments later)
There! I looked down at my tabbing idea charts with glee; this was going to be awesome!
Neji's P.O.V.
I went out to check on Krista for-what- ten minutes and I get back… and this happens. The entire village of Konoha is standing outside Hokage tower. "Okay, go!" Mojo yelled out with her megaphone. … They're doing the wave… they should be training, and they're doing the wave. Why am I surrounded by such fools?
Naruto's P.O.V.
Well, that wasn't as bad as I though it would be; actually that was really fun. "Hey Krista!" I greeted. Krista looked at me and smiled, "Best buds," she said. "For life!" I concluded, tapping my fist against hers. "What are you doing?" I asked. "Tabbing people… let's see… you're wearing orange and your first name starts with an N… so you get a purple sticker!" she exclaimed, peeling off a sticker. Then she paused, "Wait… but you're also wearing blue… so that actually means you get a magenta one." Wow… I never thought Krista would take this so seriously… but since she's my best buddy, I wore my new magenta sticker with pride. "Now, don't take that off until after the war," she ordered. Yes, that means I don't have to do laundry this week!
Shikamaru's P.O.V.
Well, we're here in some strange land. Sigh, why couldn't I have stayed in Konoha. I'm not the only chunin out of the Shinobi nine anymore. "I know that, but I brought you cause you're good at rallying and keeping people together while I'm handling the political stuff," Kathryn explained. "What a drag," I sighed. "Awww, muffin," she rolled her eyes. That's when I saw… him. "What!? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!?" I exclaimed, trudging up to my purple haired rival. "I live here," he said indifferently, "I think the better question is what are you doing here?"
"Trunks, we have come here for your aid," Kathryn stated. Oh no, we do not need his help. "Kathryn… we'll do fine with the army we have now. We don't need hi-" "Shikamaru, please. I am talking here," Kathryn interrupted me, not even listening to my words of wisdom. I was speechless, it was one thing when Krista ignored me; she ignores a lot of people, but Kathryn? Who asked me to come because of my genius? "Noob! I told you why I brought you and nowhere did I say that it was because you were the most intelligent. If intelligence was all I was going for I would have brought Neji."
"Sure, Kathryn, I'm always up for helping Krista… and Konoha," Trunks said. GASP! He did not just say that!?
Kathryn's P.O.V.
I know he only said Krista to get Shikamaru riled up, but was that really necessary? He's already at breaking point and I don't want another fight to break out between the two like at Naruto's bachelor party, not when I have other allies to gather. "Where are the others, I would like to request their aid as well?" I asked. "They are training with Kim and her bodyguard," he explained.
Kim was here? Did Gaara know? I hope not, it's WAY more fun when he doesn't… and if he starts sending messages it will be Mojo who has to deal with them. We followed Trunks into the Capsule Corp. training area to find Kim sparring with Gohan and Deidara drinking something while watching. Vegeta was also sparring but with Goku. Deidara gave me a small wave and put down his cup. "We're making progress, she used to only be able to fight against my clay clones when they were set on low."
"Does Gaara know you're here?" I asked, crossing my arms. "Nope," was his answer, "if he knew what we were planning he'd never let her come." "Hi, Kathryn," Kim greeted. I could tell Gohan was going VERY easy on her, but didn't want to burst her bubble of happiness and pride. "Looking good, Kimba," I cheered. "What are you doing her?" she asked. "I'm rallying more allies," I told her. "Oh? How many allies do we need? I don't think it's that big of a war," she commented in surprise. "Oh, but it will be," I replied. Shikamaru was clearly shocked by my statement, "Ooookkkkaaayyy?" he said, uneasily.
"We must make sure the LOS and Orochimaru never pull a stunt like this ever again," I clarified after taking in every shocked and confused look in the room. Deidara nodded, "Sounds like a plan, so who's watching Konoha while you're here?" "Mojo," I responded coolly. Deidara gave me a wide-eyed look as though he thought I were crazy. "What?" I asked. "You left Mojo… in charge of Konoha?" he echoed, questioningly. "Yeah… so?"
Neji's P.O.V.
"When Kathryn said 'keep tabs on people', I'm pretty sure this was not what she meant," I told Krista as she rounded up people with similar colored stickers and put them in pens. Mojo had put M'tachi and Itojo in charge of training the children, I told Naruto to keep an eye on them as well, just in case. "But, it so hard to keep track of everyone otherwise," she argued, ushering Choji into a pen that had a pine green sign outside of it. Yes, she went as far as different pigments of colors. "Where's Naruto, I just put him in his pen," she told me. "I asked him to keep an eye on the twins, just 'cause they are Itachi's children and they are otherwise alone in the village," I responded.
Naruto's P.O.V.
Now I know why Deidara fled to Suna to become an ambassador and Kim's personal bodyguard… these twins are SCARY!
Kim's P.O.V.
So now Kathryn has started sparring for training as well. This is great! Gaara can't find me here to force me to come home, I get to hang out with Kathryn, and Shikamaru might actually do something to prove that he is better than Trunks. Like he'll ever be better than Trunks, he should just give up now. "HEY!" Shikamaru yelled at me. He can't deny the truth forever; he's just too lazy to ever be of any competition against Trunks.
"You know I can hear you!?" Shikamaru yelled. "Tough cookies, it's true!" I yelled back. "You know what, I'll prove you wrong! During the war I'll-"
"Shikamaru please! I am trying to concentrate!" Kathryn yelled. "No! Trunks, I challenge you to a fight!" he yelled. We all gasped… and then shoved them into an air-tight training room with high security. "And you're not allowed out of there until you sort out this superiority complex!" Kathryn ordered, locking the door.
And so it began… the real ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny. The battle of the brains… Trunks vs. Shikamaru. Who would win? My money was on Trunks.
Itachi's P.O.V.
I was walking innocently through Konoha, going to visit my beloved Mojo and my dear twins… when I noticed a bunch of shinobi huddled around a telephone pole. Curiosity drew me to the telephone pole where a sign of my former student Krista hung. The sign had her pointing in the direction of the reader, wearing a strange hate, and said, "Krista wants YOU to vote for her as Hokage." Oh that's nice, Krista is working hard at her goal to become Hokage in a peaceful democratic way, yes very nice. Although I am not very happy about her running against my beloved Mojo, I will try to keep a level head when speaking with her. Yes, I will calmly address the matter at hand, as Mojo's husband it is my given duty to do such a thing.
I searched the streets of Konoha for my former student to congratulate her on her peaceful protest to get elected to Hokage, but also to try to convince her to reconsider since Mojo was my beloved wife. I found her in the training area and I froze.
Krista's P.O.V.
Oh hey, Itachi's here! "YOU!" he yelled, pointing at me. 'Me?' I mouthed questioningly while pointing to myself. "How dare you run against my beloved Mojo!" he yelled. What was I to say? Tell him the truth? Tell him that I deserved, after all my years of loyalty, to be Hokage instead of Mojo? I'd be dead the moment those words left my mouth. So I did the most logical thing that I could think of at that moment. I screamed and ran away.
Neji's P.O.V. (some time later)
Things are really starting to get chaotic around here and worst of all, there is no training going on! Ever since discovering Krista's posters to convince people to elect her to Hokage instead of Mojo, Itachi's been building giant statues all over Konoha of her. I think it's high time I called Kathryn and alert her to all this… chaos.
Kathryn's P.O.V.
It's been three days since we threw Trunks and Shikamaru into the room. Three days of non-stop fighting… three days of banging and yelling and noise. But now… now it has finally stopped.
"I think one of them died," Kim stated, not particularly comfortable with the silence. We approached the door cautiously and unlocked it. Pulling it open, I gazed around at the battlefield. There were holes in the walls, broken tables, chairs and bottles all over the place, part of the ceiling had collapsed and dust was hovering in the air.
And in the middle of it all were Trunks and Shikamaru, sitting cross-legged on the floor. "Got any twos?" Trunks asked. "Go fish," came Shikamaru's reply. The hell?
"Oh hey! You opened the door," Trunks said, cheerily. "We've come to an understanding," Shikamaru said, turning to us. "Which is?" Kim pressed. They looked at one another, then said, "That this fighting is pointless and childish." "So, you're friends now?" I asked. "I wouldn't say 'friends'," Shikamaru said. "More like, we've just come to an understanding," Trunks concluded. That was when my walky talky went off.
"Yes, Neji?" I asked, answering. "You need to come back, now," he stated. "Why?" "You'll see." He then cut the connection. Things must be really bad then. "Come, we are going back," I ordered, "you all will accompany us?" The question was directed at the people from Dragon Ball Z, who nodded. "Thanks for letting us train here," Kim added to Bulma who waved us off.
And it was now time to return to Konoha…
Kim's P.O.V.
Oh. My. God. What have they done to Konoha? A. No one's training B. There are giant statues of Mojo everywhere and C. Kathryn looks like she is about to explode at the next person she sees. "Hi sensei!" "KRISTA WHAT THE HELL!?" Kathryn demanded. "Wahhh!" my Hurricane Twin whined, "what did I do?" "Why is no one training? Why are there statues of Mojo everywhere? And… why… are there pens with random people in them all over the training area?" "No one's training 'cause they're in the pens. Umm… Itachi went a little overboard when I put up posters asking people to vote for me as Hokage instead of Mojo-"
"Omg, Krista why?" Kathryn asked. "'Cause it's not fair! She just made people do the wave for twenty minutes!" Krista argued. "So… why are people in pens?" I asked. "To keep tabs on them," she stated proudly. "How is this keeping tabs on them? Let me see your charts," Kathryn took away Krista's clipboard, flipping through the pages.
"What the hell Krista, there's just a sketch of you defeating Orochimaru and the words 'I am so much better at ninja-ing than Kim' and the rest of the pages are blank," Kathryn said. "You just threw random people in pens, didn't you?" I asked. "I had a system in the beginning… but then it got complicated and I forgot my system," she told me.
Mojo's P.O.V.
Oh hey! Kathryn's back. I wonder what she wants. "Mojo, I am relieving you of your Hokage duties." Oh… okay. "Sure, I'll just go back to bullying- I mean leading the Akatsuki." "You do that Moj," she gave me a thumbs up before sitting down at her desk. I saw her open the drawer labeled, 'When Noobs Don't Listen' and press the button. Oh boy.
Krista's P.O.V.
Oh wow, now Kathryn-sensei's using the Wizard of Oz thing.
"Alright noobs!" she shouted, "Let's get down to business, to defeat the huns!" She held up a picture of the L.O.S.
Wow, sensei is singing the song from Mulan!
"Did they send me daughters? When I asked, for sons!"
I feel somewhat insulted by that.
"You're the saddest bunch I've ever met, but you can bet before we're through. Mister I'll make a man out of you."
Now everyone was watching and listening to sensei. My pens didn't work T T.
"Tranquil as a forest, but on fire within. Once you find your center you are sure to win. You're a spineless, pale, pathetic lot, and you haven't got a clue. Somehow I'll make a man out of you!"
Inspirational words indeed sensei, for now EVERYONE was training.
Shikamaru was actually running laps saying, "I'm never gonna catch my breath."
Tenten was practicing with weapons, "Say goodbye to those who knew me."
Choji was collapsed on the ground, panting, "Boy was I fool in school for cutting gym."
Through all this I couldn't help but think, 'This guys got them scared to death.' While Kimba muttered, "Hope he doesn't see right through me." She obviously meant Gaara; we all knew of his dislike of her training for the war.
And somewhere, far away from us, we heard man-whore yell, "Now I really wish that I knew how to swim!"
Kimba, Mojo, and I yelled, "Be a man!"
Kathryn smiled at us through her hologram. "We must be swift as the coursing river."
"Be a man!"
"With all the force of a great typhoon."
"Be a man!"
"With all the strength of a raging fire, mysterious as the dark side of the moon!" And just like that she appeared before us, in person, at the training field. She pointed dramatically in our direction. "Time is racing towards us, 'til the huns arrive." Again she referred to the picture, as if we didn't know already; but then she tore it up, pacing back and forth in front of us. "Heed my every order, and you might survive."
She then rounded on poor Iruka, who had snuck into the training ground. "You're unsuited for the rage of war, so pack up, go home, you're through. How could I make a man out of you?"
Naruto, Konohamaru, Kakashi, Gai, Itachi, and Kiba pumped their arms in the air, yelling with Kimba, Mojo, and I. "Be a man!"
"We must be swift as the coursing river."
More people joined in, "Be a man!"
"With all the force of a great typhoon."
Now everyone was saying it, "Be a man!"
"With all the strength of a raging fire, mysterious as the dark side of the moon."
We began sparring with one another as Kathryn looked on with pride, all of us singing.
"Be a man!
We must be swift as the coursing river.
Be a man!
With all the force of a great typhoon.
Be a man!
With all the strength of a raging fire,
Mysterious as the dark side of the moon!"
Wow… that was the greatest training session EVER! And everyone was so pumped for the war now.
"Good job guys," Kathryn said as we all collapsed in exhaustion, "and Kimba, Neji has sent word to Gaara about the people who have answered the call of the alliance going to stay in Suna."
Neji's P.O.V. (FLASHBACK- haven't done this in a while…O o)
"Hello Gaara," I greeted good-naturedly over the phone. "Neji…" he returned the greeting. "Many members of our alliance have arrived so we'll be sending some of them to Suna to prepare for the war. This is an order straight from the Hokage," I told him. "I see… as Suna's Kazekage, I thank you for offering aid to us in this horrible time," he said before we hung up. Wait, why am I only sending a few? I should just send all of them.
Mojo's P.O.V.
Well that was fun; who doesn't like singing Disney songs while preparing for a war? "Hey Kim, I'll walk with you part of the way, since Itachi and I are going back to the Castle in the Sky now," I told her. "Cool," was her response, "alright peoples! Let's jet!" She waved towards the Ouran Highschool Host Club, the people from Beyblade, the Sailor Scouts, Kira, Athrun, Mwu, Andrew Watfeld, the guys from Tales of Symphonia (including Yuan and Mithos/Yggdrasil), and the people from Dragon Ball Z.
"Oh, hey Deidara!" I greeted as I spotted him, "how's Suna?" "G-good…" he stammered out. "The twins miss you, you should visit sometimes," it wasn't a suggestion. "I'll try… but you know being an ambassador and all… it gets pretty hectic there," he said. Kim had a 'the hell?' look on her face at his words, but I didn't ask why. After all, Kim's 'the hell?' looks could mean anything.
But now we were leaving Konoha and returning home. "Oh, wait are you two going to tell Gaara if he asks where you were all this time?" I asked. "Fetching the members of the alliance," she smiled at me. Like he'd buy that.
Epilogue
Gaara's P.O.V.
I sent Kankuro and Baki out to look for Kim and Deidara while I wait for the members of the alliance to show up. "You know… she wouldn't be able to run off like this… if you would make me an aunt!" Temari stated, her hinting really getting on my nerves. "Shut up," I growled.
The door to my office burst open seconds later, reveling my brother and Baki, both out of breath. "Well?" I asked. "There's something you need to see," Kankuro said. And that's when I heard it… music that was slowly getting louder. Oh dear God please don't tell me… I looked out my window… and was reminded of that time, when Mojo was pregnant, and made us all watch Aladdin twenty-seven times with her. Well, not that time, more specifically a part of that movie, where they're marching through the streets and the man character is posing as a prince and riding his monkey who was turned into an elephant.
The music was even similar. And leading the bunch was Kim and that poor excuse for a bodyguard of hers Deidara. They were having a freaking parade in the middle of war preparations!
"KATHRYN!"
new pen name- NTHT
