---Tunnel of Destiny----
Chapter 1 - Jiraiya's Forbidden Tunnel of Destiny
"Whew! That mission was tiring" exclaimed Naruto as he, Sakura, Kakashi and Sai walked into Tsunade's office. Tsunade looked up from her paperwork and saw the team Kakashi back from their mission.
"So, How did it go?" asked Tsunade with her arms crossed folded infront of her. "Everything went smoothly" Kakashi said replying to her. "Yeah, the package was deliveredwith little trouble." said Naruto giving Tsunade a thumbs up.
"Little trouble?" asked Tsunade. "What kind of trouble?"
"We ran into some ninjas along the way but we took care of em" said Naruto with his thumbs up still pointed at Tsunade. Sai looked up from his book, "Yes, they were of no threat though. Our mission was a complete success" Sai said to her assuringly then returning his eyesight back to his book about emotions and how to show them.
"If I may ask, Tsunade..." Sakura spoke up, "..What was the package anyway?" Tsunade gave each of Team Kakashi a quick glance of her eyes and answered Sakura's question.
"Well, what the contents of the package was, i cannot tell you. But I can tell you what it is for" she said. Team Kakashi awaited her explaination. "Ever since the incident with Sasuke Uchiha, I couldnt help but notice many young shinobi in a sort of depression." She said now standing up and facing the opposing window as she continued. "After some discussion with the elders, I have come to the conclusion...to open up the Konoha Park."
"The Konoha Park?" asked Naruto. "Whats that?"
Kakashi answered him, "Its an amusment park that has been closed ever since I was a little child. I use to love going there until it was closed down."
"Why was it closed down?" asked Sai once again lifting up his head from his book.
Tsunade continued to look out her window as she answered Sai, "Because of that fool, Jiraiya"
Naruto's eyes lit up hearing of his sensei, "eh, Ero-Senin? what did he do?"
Tsunade sat down back into her chair and glanced at Naruto once more. "Well, back then, Konoha had put him, Orochimaru, and myself in charge of making one new additional ride each for the park. Actually, it was pretty fun to do."
"What ride did you make?" asked Kakashi
Tsunade smiled, "I made the ride called 'Bumper Cars...TO THE XTREME!" she said jumping up from her desk and slamming her fist on her desk.
Kakashi looked on at her, "You made that ride? Getting on that ride was like suicide. If you got bumped, you'd literally go into a coma for a week. But i guess thats what you get when you make the bumper cars with Air Force Jet Engines" he said placing his hand on his chin.
Sakura, Sai and Naruto all laughed at the thought of Kakashi on the bumper cars. "So, what did Orochimaru and Jiraiya make for their rides?" asked Sakura.
"Naturally, Orochimaru made a haunted house that was about as scary as Sakura here" said Tsunade smiling at Sakura. Sai and Naruto both turned to each other.
"Oh, so you mean it was scary as hell huh" said Sai with a straight face to Tsunade as Naruto tried hard to hold back a laugh and Sakura glaring at them both with a death stare.
"Ahem" Tsunade fake cleared her throat to regain attention, Team Kakashi looked back at her. "Like I was saying, Orochimaru made a haunted house."
"And Jiraiya?" Asked Naruto
"Jiraiya made a Tunnel of Love ride...but it was different then any other tunnel of love. He made a jutsu especially for it." She went on to explain. "This is how it works. You and your date to the festival are separated as there are two different lines for both, one for the boys and one for the girls. Once the lines shortens and are able to get in a boat, the area will go pitch black and you will not know who is in the boat with you until the end of the ride. When you reach the end, your boat will automatically coast into a lit up spot from the full moon shining in a spot on the water. At that time, you will be able to see who you were in the boat with...and who you were destined to be with your entire life"
"WHAT!" Shouted Naruto and Sakura as Kakashi and Sai stood unshooken. "What was that last part again?" asked Naruto
"That specific jutsu he created was forbidden because it has the power to tell you what is your future...or for a better use of words...Who is your future. The person you will see next to you in the boat is who you were destined to be with for the rest of your life. That person...is the one you will be destined to love."
Naruto thought on in his mind as he thought what if he ended up with Sakura on the boat. His face began to look as devilish as his thoughts.
"Well, the Konoha Park...and Jiraiya's forbidden Tunnel of Love will be open in 2 days at exactly 10:00pm during the full moon. This is a date taking place too, you can only get into the park if you have a date" Said Tsunade to them...Well besides that, I will make an announcement to all the others about this coming attraction. You guys are dismissed" She said going back to writing on paper on her desk. With that, Team Kakashi left the office. Naruto grinning from ear to ear not noticing that Hinata, who was standing behind the dooroverheard the conversation and hoped of asking Naruto to the festival. Sai remaining calm reading his book, and Sakura was leftthinking about Jiraiya's forbidden tunnel of love and who she may end up destined to love..
