Chapter IV
The Diary is worth dying for! Part 2
Shizune stared at the green notebook that the fifth Hokage is holding. She held on tightly to Ton-Ton as little droplets of sweat dripped by her porcelain cheeks. Tsunade stared back at her with extreme seriousness that makes Shizune's heart beat faster. Shizune swallowed and held her breath as she slowly nodded to the Hokage. It is the sign that she's ready to know what is inside the green notebook. Tsunade then turned her eyes back into the green notebook that she is holding. Without any caution, Tsunade opened the note book.
"This is all your fault Naruto…" I said as I gazed upon the blond boy sitting right behind me as we are waiting for our prey to come out.
"Yes… Yes… I know already so quit it…" He said.
I hate it how he comprehends my insults that way. I mean it's not that he wanted to be here in the first place. And why am I helping him? Because of my own foolishness.
"Keep your eyes peeled Naruto…"
"Yeah! Yeah! I will okay?" He put his fingers over to his eyes and widened them. "Happy now?" He continued.
"Idiot!" I lifted my fist towards his head and he blinked as if ready to face the pain that I am about to give him again.
I stopped when my fist reached at least a centimeter away from his forehead. Naruto slowly opened his eyes as if disappointed that he did not received what he was waiting for. He looked at me questioningly.
That made me remember something from my past. Did that happened to me before? Did someone who always hit my head (gently) tried to hit me again but stopped while I was waiting for the pain to insure?
"Sasuke! There he is!" Naruto shouted and scrambled my trail of thoughts. Below I could see Shikamaru walking with Ino. I wonder if he is still in possession of the diary.
I signaled to Naruto quietly and stealthly jumped over to a bush near Shiakamaru and Ino.
"That was scary Shikamaru…" Ino said.
"Yeah I know, I wonder who those inposters could be… The good thing is that the notebook is already possessed by the Hokage-sama. Now I don't have to bother taking care of it unless the imposters attack again…" Shikamaru said.
"Good thinking Shikamaru… But did you peaked at least once inside the diary?" Ino asked curiously.
"No…" Shikamaru answered. I felt a little lighter knowing that Shikamaru didn't peeked on the diary. "I thought it was just a girly thing…" Shikamaru continued.
"You know, based on the information that you gave me, I think that notebook belongs to Naruto…" Ino suggested.
I was filled with tremors when Ino said that. How on Earth did she deduce it that way?
"Naruto? Why?" Shikamaru asked with a surprised look on his face.
"Well, I don't know… It's just a girl intuition… You see, who in Konoha loves ramen that much to even make it a symbol on a notebook?"
"Hmmm… You have a point…" Shikamaru thought.
"But then again I could be wrong hehe!" Ino laughed.
I then jumped out of my hiding place back to the tree top where Naruto is waiting for me.
"Naruto, change of plans…" I said.
"Why so sudden?" He asked showing me that blank look on his face again.
"Because the diary is no longer with Shikamaru…"
"If not, where is it?"
"It is with the Hokage…"
"WHAT!!!" Naruto shouted and fell off the tree. He landed on his back and squirmed with a little pain and then he stood up and panicked.
"What's the matter with you Naruto?" I looked down at him and noticed that he has gotten pale.
"We have to get the diary fast!" He said while shaking.
I didn't know what has gotten into his mind but there is this feeling that something really bad is about to happen.
"Tsunade-ba-chan once saw me writing in my diary! She asked me if she could see it but I didn't let her to!" Naruto said. Sweat dropped down his cheeks.
"You mean… Tsunade knows that it is your diary?"
Naruto grimly looked at me and nodded.
"Shit…"
Meanwhile, two dark figures arrived at the northwest entrance of the village. Their long black cloaks embedded with red clouds hanged loosely on their bodies. The chuunin guards looked at them as if stunned.
"Hold on there! State your business with Konoha…" One of the chuunin gathered his guts to ask them.
"You dare to ask?" The taller of the two cloaked figure spoke with a terrible voice. He lifted his large bandaged sword and swiftly ran towards the guard.
"Don't be so impatient Kisame… We'll have more fun later…"
