I had this idea from before and it might seem weird but yeah. ^_^" Thankfully no-one has done this idea before (or so I hope). Enjoy this story! Hints of ShikaAmi by the way. :D

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Sailor Moon or anything associated with the two.

Ami Mizuno.

Blue hair, blue eyes. Smart and shy. Chuunin from the Tsuki Village. Visiting Konoha for a vacation from shinobi duties.

And currently, the centre of all things troublesome. At least for Shikamaru, who was assigned to be her guardian and tour guide during her stay.

"This is such a quiet and peaceful village compared to the Village of the Moon," Ami commented, looking around.

Just then Naruto's loud pleads for a date with Sakura rang through the entire village.

Shikamaru sighed. "I doubt it's quiet, what with our very own troublemaker and our Hokage, who often screams a lot."

"Your Hokage seems nice, though," Ami said. "Like the Tsukikage."

There was silence between the two as Ami continued looking around. Feeling awkward, Shikamaru asked, "Do you play Shougi?"

Ami turned to him, beaming. "Of course I do! Why, I play it as much as I can!"

Shikamaru smirked. "Well then you must be quite good at it, right? Let's play at my house."

They walked to Shikamaru's home in a comfortable silence, as neither would or could start a conversation. Setting up the shougi board it wasn't long before both teens were deep in the game and lost in thought.

Finally after about 45 minutes they were down to the last move. Even Shikamaru's plan from earlier had been thwarted by Ami, since she had also thought ahead and seen what her opponent planned on doing. They were both sweating and agreed to take a 5 minute rest (only because that was when they could think up a strategy).

When time was up, both were smirking in their heads. Fiercely they played; dodging, attacking, attempting to trap, etc. etc. Finally after 15 minutes…

"Checkmate!" Somebody had won.

I know, why bother making a cliffie when no-one's even reading this. Dunno. I know, I could have made it a one-shot but no. LOL. Apologies, apologies. Though if you do happen to read this, please leave a review or I will wreck everything that Kakuzu owns and say that it's your fault. And believe me, it would cost a lot and he's gonna be pretty angry.

However, if you do review then you will get free food and get a free pass from class! LOL.
