Chapter 3
Temari sat in the hot springs water. "Mhmm I've been needing this for awhile work has been such a pain I wonder where Ino and the girls they better not had stood me up. Temari grabbed her phone and begin to send a group message out.
To: Ino,Sakura,Hinata,Tenten,
Message: Hey so you guys are a half an hour late,just wanted to know if you girls still wanted to spend the day out today lol it's real lonely but text me back okay.
Temari sent the message to her closest friends and Hinata was the first to respond…..
Hinata: "Sorry Temari naruto treated me to ramen I lost track of time but I will be there in a few
Temari: "its fine Hinata just was checking to see if we were still on for today
Tenten: "Oh dammit I completely forgot let me get ready and I'll be there soon
Temari: "K see you soon
Ino: "Temari get your panties out your ass I'll be there I just need time getting my makeup on.
Temari: "Oh Ino I'm not going to tell you what to keep out your ass consider all the guys you talk to just get over here :)...
Temari noticed that Sakura never replied. "That's funny she always reply. Temari heard the springs door open and it was none other then her pink haired friend in a white towel Temari hopped out the spring to hug her friend. "Hey Sakura I was just about to call you give me a hug. Sakura looked at the naked sand ninja and giggled. "Tem your naked but we're both girls here so I guess it's fine.
Both girls now in the springs waiting for their friends to arrive. "Hey Sakura how's the medical stuff going. The pink haired girl let a sign out while she poured a little water on her head,"Tem it's actually going good it's a lot of work I'm tsunade's student and having her as a teacher is a lot of work I'm glad I had time for the hot springs how about you she told me you been doing great as the ambassador here. "It's fine it's actually a lot easier than the sand gosh there was so much work to do with garra we were always busy with visitors and village preps but I'm enjoying my time here in konoha. The two friends continued to talk and laugh while waiting for the others…
Shikamaru stood over top of the grave of His fallen Sensai Asuma the wind blew and leaves flew high. "Sensei it's been nearly 6 years since you've been gone those days hasn't been to easy to live, the Nara came to his knees he let out a deep breath. "I had time to catch up with Temari and she's had a huge impact on me I haven't told her anything yet well not yet at least. Shikamaru let tears fall, "As for the Akatsuki Member hidan he's facing something far worse than death i promise I will look after your family and kurenai. Shikamaru felt a presence and arose to his feet.
"It's good to see you old friend. Shikamaru brushed his pants off and smirked,"Choji my man long time no see what's up. Choji walked over to his best friend. "I'm here to visit Asuma's grave before my mission,it's crazy that he's gone you know some days I still think he's here. Shikamaru looked at his friend and gave him a pat on the shoulder. "Hey how about we go get some grilled beef before your mission on me. Choji smiled "Thanks Shikamaru let's go.
"So how's you and Temari relationship going Choji said while eating his beef spare ribs. Shikamaru let a yawn escape his mouth "She can be a drag sometimes but we're both good oh yeah I asked her to the sport festival. "That's great I haven't decided if I will go this year I'm helping Pa with some work around the house if you don't mind me asking have you told her about the forest yet? Choji opened his eyes and gave Shikamaru a serious look. "No not yet if I do she's gonna wana know why I kept it from her and besides it's gonna be a big deal afterwards. Choji shook his head "So I guess she doesn't know about the Akatsuki member you have buried in there does she.Shikamaru remained silent "She's going to find out soon Shikamaru you have to tell her.
"Choji she won't find out unless someone other then me tells her and there only a few that know about that certain member you me Ino, naruto,and Kakashi and also my clan i'll tell her when the time is right. Choji let a laugh out "okay Shikamaru it's wierd that you have a man buried alive and your girlfriend doesn't know a pinch about anyway I gotta go man Ima be late for my mission later, Choji headed out the door to leave the boy alone he thought to himself "Maybe Choji is right maybe I should tell her. He looked at his watch it was 9:15am he paid for the meal and left. "I'm gonna go pay him a visit.
"Wahhh so Shikamaru never told you about the forest he has and how loaded his family is! Ino shouted "He never made a mention of it I told you last night an old guy told me about it and he called him Mr.Nara like Shikamaru was top authority. "Maybe it never crossed his mind Ino Hinata said. "If you ask me it's not that big of a deal Ino,Tenten sunk half her face in the water. "Oh hush tenten Temari listen the Nara clan is known for the forest they have and all the exotic fruits and things they have inside it's been around since the first hokage. "Wow that's a long time, Sakura stated. "Anyway they trade the goods they have to different villages for profit since Shikaku is the head of it he takes care of most the work.
Temari was shocked to why shika never spoke about this."So basically Shikamaru has money for days so why does he work with Kakashi. Tenten spoke "Well Kakashi Sensei needed help with a bunch of paperwork since he's gonna be the 6th hokage and nobody could do it better then Shikamaru. "One last thing Ino hissed, the Nara forest is sacred and nobody is able to travel in or out without a Nara they have deer but these deer are special if you look in their eyes you can tell that they're not normal they have no pupils they act as ninjas and also like a security for intruders or to stop whatever's inside.
Sakura laughed "You seriously expect me to believe that deer are patrolling that forest and standing on guard ino it sounds fake. Tenten agreed "Yeah ino I don't know about that it sounds a little creepy and false. Ino Sighed in annoyance "You guys you have to listen it's all true Shikamaru explained this all to me hey Hinata and Temari do you guys believe me. Hinata Spoke "Um Um geez I'm not to sure ino I believe you until you said there was something inside. "Temari I wouldn't lie to you that's so not like me. Temari thought back to last night to the old man and the way shika reacted to her gift…"I believe you Ino. "Yessss! Ino jump in the springs with victory splashing Sakura next to her. "Hey Big mouth! Your splashing me stop.
Shikamaru was far enough from the village to the point where gate wasn't in sight he arrived to an area of tree's with a few hand signs the barrier allowed him to proceed in. The forest was beautiful birds and insects were all over while the trees were high you could hear the nearby waterfall running. A few deer approached Shikamaru. "Hey seems like you guys get bigger every time i see you, the deer followed him as he walked over to a clear field with no bushes or trees just dirt and a few old paper bombs. Shikamaru yawned and summoned a clone they started digging up the pile of debris that was in front of them.
As they finished digging there was the Akatsuki member hidan with every limb on his body blown apart. "HEY KID WHEN I GET OUT OF HERE YOUR VILLAGE IS DONE FOR LIKE I SAID THAT DAY I'll never die i'll chew my way out this hole and when I do i'll cut you down just like that bounty you hear me! "Lord Jashin will have your head. Shikamaru Yawned "You're not that smart are you I come visit this forest every month to re dig your grave even though it's a drag we can't take the chances of you getting out so go ahead and chew your way out you won't even get a inch through. Hidan Grinded his teeth "Kid your balls are big I'm just gonna rip em off trust me I will get out this hole and I'm coming for you!
Shikamaru didn't pay the immortal man any attention he just ignored all the meaningless slurs while he buried the man alive once again."Hey Sensei you hear this guy he's suffering right now death is too good for him he doesn't deserve it he he's gonna rot in here die from hunger and nutrition. Shikamaru let tears roll down his face while he continued to finish the grave off.
