"SHUT IT TEME! I swear if you don't shut up I..I'll..I.."
"Hn. Stutter at me?" Sasuke smirked, raising his delicate eyebrows until they disappeared under his long black bangs. MAN, did Naruto want to punch the brains out of this guy.
Team 7 had only been in the training fields for an hour before they were forced to stop sparring due to yet another disagreement between Naruto and Sasuke.
It was all that bastard Sasuke's fault, all these attack formations he was coming up with were way too confusing, Naruto doubted anybody would understand them! And then Sasuke started saying that it was his fault they didn't work because he was a 'knucklehead' or something... GRRRR! How did someone like him become a ninja?
Sakura stood nervously nearby, watching the fuming blonde and the sneering Uchiha get ever more pissed off at eachother. What the hell was wrong with these two, did they have to fight all the time? They couldn't even last one training session without Kakashi here before they kicked off yet again with their arguing. She almost wished that Kakashi Sensei would turn up right then and stop the two of them from fighting, but on the other hand, she knew that if he arrived for a check up and they weren't training, they were all really going to get it.
"Guys, I reaaaally think we need to get back to training now. Kakashi Sensei could-"
"Screw Kakashi, I wanna settle this right NOW Uchiha! All your ideas are stupid, and whenever you make plans, they totally fall apart!" Naruto cut across Sakura, now facing Sasuke head on, only a few metres between them.
"They fall apart DOBE because you can't follow them you're so damn stupid. And stop making that face at me; you're straining the few brain cells you have left, and you can't afford to lose anymore." Sasuke sneered, as he raised one eyebrow at Naruto and swung around to face the other direction.
ARGHHH, that Uchiha was going to die! Naruto had been scrunching his face in anger at the other boy, but another brain cell joke? That was the LAST DAMN STRAW! Naruto bunched his fists at his sides and began striding purposefully towards his raven-haired rival, ready to pounce and give him a punch that would lose him a few brain cells.
A state of panic rose in Sakura's chest as she looked frantically between the poised Uchiha and the rapidly advancing blonde, her bubblegum-pink hair swinging wildly with her sharp movement. What on earth was she supposed to do now? These boys were so stupid when it came to these silly arguments, why couldn't they at least attempt to cooperate with eachother for the sake of their missions and to keep their sensei happy...
However, it looked like neither ninja was about to execute any dangerous jutsu on eachother, so with a burst of speed that rivalled Kakashi's, she flew swiftly between them and slammed her right arm into Naruto's chest, stopping him in his tracks. The other she thrust into Sasuke, who had turned readily to face Naruto when he sensed his advance.
Both boys looked at her with disbelief. Sakura found this fact irritating. What, so it was such a shock that she was just trying to keep them all out of immediate trouble?
"Look, I have to admit that you're both pretty crappy at making plans of attack-" She paused as they both growled at her. With a gulp, she continued. "We need to find a way to resolve the problem without you taking it out on eachother, it just ends up with you two kicking each other's asses and then getting yelled at – or worse- by Sensei!"
The glare from the two boys faltered as they were reminded of their most recent punishment for fighting. Kakashi sensei had tanned both their hides raw and then launched them into a high intensity training exercise with no time to recover. Naruto's butt cheeks twitched involuntarily at the memory.
"Well, what do you suggest then if you're so intelligent?" Sasuke inquired mockingly, shoving her hand from his chest and folding his arms across it. Naruto took a step back also, and Sakura let her hands fall to her sides, glad that she'd finally caught their attention.
"Well..." She began, and idea forming in her head. Sure, it was risky, but as long as they were careful, it might be able to resolve this ongoing argument of theirs.
-One explanation and half an hour later-
"So whoever's prank comes off the bestest, they win?" Naruto confirmed with Sakura one more time. Sasuke groaned "Yes dobe, we've explained it five times already!"
Naruto punched his shoulder. Hey, it had been a long day; he was allowed to be slow! And he had the main idea of the plan understood already. Naruto and Sasuke would take it in turns to plan and execute some major pranks in the village. Sakura was going to act as a lookout of needed for both pranks, and if a decision couldn't be made as to whose prank came off the best, she would have the deciding vote. See, Naruto did get it!
"Well alright then!" The blonde sprang to his feet excitedly "Let's roll all our revenge into some spectacular pranks!"
Sakura began to regret her decision instantly. What was she thinking getting two people like Naruto and Sauske to compete? They were so competitive she was sure this would get out of hand, and end up with a painful ordeal for their butts, maybe even for herself. But at the same time, she couldn't wait to see the faces of those prankees when they were pulled off, it would be awesome!
Even the young Uchiha couldn't hide and eager smirk as Team 7 fell deep into planning for 'The Great Uchiha-Uzumaki prank off!'
