Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Bloodthirsty - Friendship ❯ Aprodisiac ( Chapter 7 )

You now? I just noticed something rather interesting! I tend to start most of my chapters with a "YAMN!" from Naruto. I guess I picture him doing that a lot, although he is all energetic and stuff. I started at least three chapters that way and I'm sorry if it became boring. I'll try not to do it again. Now, enjoy the newest chapter!

WARNING: This chapter is really INSANE! It came out from my troubled mind. But I'm sure you'll have the opportunity to laugh your heads off while reading it. So be careful!

Bloodthirsty - Friendship

*By: NightAngel*

Chapter 7: "Aphrodisiac"

"Let's go!" - the all-so-energetic Naruto yelled out to the sky. The other genins stared at him like if he was a freak.

"Go where exactly?" - Neiji asked, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Ara?" - was Naruto's response. He had no idea where they could do a football match.

"Dobe!" - Sasuke sighed and muttered under his breath.

They were all standing outside of Gaara's house, waiting for further instructions.

"Hey! There's that old abandoned field next to the village's borders. We could go there!" - Kankuro said, a little too excited.

"Yeah! No one ever goes there anymore!" - Temari agreed happily.

"Abandoned?" - Sakura asked.

"You're joking right?" - Ino asked, while her hand was around Shikamaru's arm, in a death grip. (I like torturing him! Poor Shika. You're one of my favorites characters!)

"Are you afraid?" - Gaara asked bored.

"Of course not!" - Ino yelled. - "Let's do it!" - everyone sweatdropped.

The sand trio of brothers led the way, and the others followed silently.

"Remind me again why I'm here TenTen!" - Neiji asked very annoyed, and still with arms crossed.

His teammate smiled. - "Because you thought it would be fun!" - She watched closely as he walked with his eyes closed, deep in thoughts. She gazed at his hand, wanting to grab it but restraining herself from doing so. Although she had feelings for him ever since she could remember, she was almost sure they were not mutual. All he felt for her was friendship and nothing more. She sighed heavily. Why couldn't she be like Sakura and simply hang on to his arms, like if it was the most normal thing in the world. She was one of the strongest kunoichis around, but still she was so weak when it comes to love matters.

"TenTen!" - the sound of the other boy brought her back to reality. She looked up at him and saw concern in his white, and almost unreadable eyes. - "You alright? You seemed to space out for a moment and that is so not like you." - She gave him a small smile. He cared and she knew it. But to what extent was that care?

"I'm fine! Don't worry about it." - Neiji nodded and then, looking elsewhere he smirked. TenTen followed his gaze. Next to her was a very pissed of Lee, who seemed to be close to an explosion. Sakura seemed to be hanging on Sasuke again. And Lee didn't like it one bit.

TenTen smiled, and almost automatically her eyes searched for a blonde girl behind them. Ino was currently sucking the life out of Shikamaru, by the way she was squashing his left arm and all. Besides, she was chewing on his sleeve. Which provided quite the amazing sight. TenTen couldn't help but giggle. Quite after she was startled when she heard another small giggle next to her. She looked up surprised, to find Neiji's gaze on her.

"Poor Shikamaru!" - TenTen blushed. It was the first time in a while that she saw him smile so openly. And she couldn't help but give him her best smile ever.

"Yup! Ino sure seems to intend on killing him." - Neiji loooked once again behind them and then to his teammate once again.

"You think?" - TenTen was startled by his question. - "What I see is her trying to show her real feelings in the wrong way." - he smiled when he saw TenTen's surprised face once again. - "Ino is obsessed with Sasuke, just like most of the girls in Konoha. But deep down she's in love with someone else. Without knowing, she shows it on the most unlikely of ways. Which is kind'a stupid. Don't you think?" - TenTen couldn't help but smile when she saw the blush that crept across Neiji's face. He was acting so out of character.

"You seem different Neiji-kun!" - she said.

"Yeah, I guess!" - he paused for a while. - "I think I might be hanging out with these people a little to much. It's starting to get me! Their cheerfulness!" - another pause, and Neiji sighed. - "Don't you like the changes?" - that question surprised TenTen, who blushed and gazed down at her shoes.

"Well I liked Neiji-kun the way he was before but ... I don't think the changes made it worse!" - Neiji smiled again, despite himself. He tended to smile a lot when he was close to his teammate.

"You know TenTen ..." - he started, calling the kunoichis' attention to him. - "I ..." - she watched as a blush made his way to his cheeks. - "I ... Never mind!" - Neiji turned his head the other way and crossed his arms once again. TenTen sighed. «What was it that he wanted to tell me?» - she thought as they walked.

"INO!!!!" - Shikamaru yelled, startling everyone. They all stopped and turned their heads back to the InoShikaChou trio.

Chouji didn't seem to notice the attentions were turned to them. He was to occupied with the snacks he had in hands. Ino was too busy squishing Shikamaru's arm, chewing on his sleeve and glaring at Sakura, to even notice anything. The only one aware of it, was currently turning green as Ino squashed his arm even harder.

"Ino pig, what the hell are you doing?" - Sakura asked, while still grabbing Sasuke's arm (Note that Sasuke had given up on trying to get her off, since she wouldn't anyway) - "You're killing Shikamaru once again!" - Sakura smirked, and finally Ino decided to snap out of it.

"Shika!" - she looked up at him. - "You seem rather ... green!" - everyone sweatdropped.

Temari inched closer to Chouji, who watching everything, not at all surprised. - "How can he keep up with that?" - she asked the chubby guy. Chouji choked on his food. Temari patted his back and when he raised his head, she noticed he was blushing.

"Sorry!" - she nodded. - "But, that's what love's all about, right?" - Temari nodded again.

"So he is really in love with her!" - she told herself.

"Isn't it obvious?" - the girl smiled and nodded again.

"Oi, Shika!" - Ino shacked the boy a little. Apparently not knowing that it would only make him feel worst. - "Snap out of it you lazy-bum!"

"Strange way of showing she cares!" - Neiji nodded his head at TenTen, who agreed.

"Stop it already!" - Everyone looked up at Gaara, who seemed a little too pissed. - "Can't you see you're only doing worst!" - Ino let go of her teammate, who fell with a *thud* on the floor.

"Oops!" - was what she said when she noticed she shouldn't had let him go like that.

"Women!" - Gaara muttered under his breath, while putting his head on his hands.

"Hinata, don't you have that liquid with you? It might help him out!" - Kiba said to his teammate.

"Yeah! I have it here!" - she searched her bag and found it quickly. Then she ran there and kneeled besides the passed-out Chunnin. She opened the bottle and placed it next to Shikamaru's nose, making him smell the strong scent.

"KYA!!!!" - Shikamaru got up in a flash, with his hands over his nose. - "What the hell was that!" - he yelled out in frustration. - "That smelled Ino's perfume! AMPLIFIED 10000 times!" - Everyone laughed at that.

"What are you saying! What's wrong with my perfume?" - Ino whacked him across the head. Shikamaru whined in annoyance.

"Stop it! My nose will start to bleed soon because of the extended torture he was placed upon. Who the hell made me smell that shit?" - he glared around, ready to kill.

"I ... It was me Shikamaru-kun!" - Hinata said blushing. - "Sorry!"

"Ah? Hinata?" - Shikamaru scratched the back of his head. - "It's alright then. I don't like to hit women!" - everyone sweatdropped. Shikamaru sniffed, still felling uncomfortable, like if the smell was still in there. - "This is so troublesome.

"Well, it worked at least!" - Kankuro said. - "Let's get going or we'll never make it before lunch-time!" - the others nodded and followed.

Naruto started walking backwards, getting away from his teammates, and approaching Kiba's team. Wearing a strange grin, he approached Hinata, who upon noticing his presence, blushed madly.

"Hinata-chan!" - Naruto singsong. - "What was that you used on Shikamaru?" - Hinata started playing with her fingers once again, and for the first time, Naruto seemed to really pay attention to her reactions.

Her hard blush, her nervousness around him, that thing she always did with her fingers only when he was around. - "You alright Hinata-chan?" - Kiba and Shino (although he didn't show it all that much), stared surprised at the boy. He had never cared before, so why now?.

"Y-Yeah! Everything's fine!" - Naruto grinned and put his hands behind his head, walking side by side with the black haired girl. - "What I used was the scent of a plant called the Yurubi. It's scent is known for being very strong. They say it can even wake the dead!" - Hinata smiled shyly.

"Really?" - Naruto seemed surprised for a while. - "Cool!" - Then his smile turned to a grin, and Kiba shock his head. Naruto was having yet another idea for a prank. And he was sure it got Yurubi's scent and Sasuke in it. After all ... it always did get Sasuke somewhere in the middle.

"Hey Hinata-chan! Do you think I can borrow that bottle from you! Just for a little! I'll be sure to return it quickly." - Naruto pleaded, rubbing his hands together, in front of his face.

Hinata blushed even more and nodded, handing him the bottle. Kiba, Shino and Hinata watched amused as Naruto sneaked out behind Sasuke and opened the bottle.

"Oh no!" - Hinata yelled when she saw Naruto get the bottle under Sasuke's nose, before he even noticed his presence. Hinata's eyes widened in horror, as Sasuke passed out right there and then.

"Ugh?" - Naruto said when Sasuke fell off. Sakura was currently yelling her head off, and everyone else had stopped to watch the show. Naruto saw Hinata approaching. - "What happened Hinata-chan? I thought it was only supposed to wake him up a little more!" - Hinata looked down at Sasuke, with a very troubled face.

"Uh!" - she started pacing right and left, front and back. Everyone was following her pace. - "This is bad! This is bad!" - she muttered under her breath.

"Ugh? What's wr ------" - Ino came running to her Sasuke's aid, stomping on Naruto's foot. Naruto threw the open bottle in the air and it fell all in his head.

When the young genin felt the smell reach his nose, he started felling dizzy, and soon enough he passed out. Everyone stared.

"What the hell!" - Neiji, TenTen and Chouji, who were the ones closest to Naruto, covered their noses, because of the strong scent.

"DON'T INHALE IT!" - Hinata yelled out, panicking like never before.

"It's a little bit too late for that now!" - Neiji said while getting away from the passed out boy.

"I'm felling dizzy!" - Neiji caught TenTen right before she hit the ground.

"Suddenly, I'm not all that hungry!" - Chouji looked up from his snacks, and then looked at Temari, a strange glint on his eyes.

"This is soooooooooooooo bad!" - Hinata yelled her head out, startling everyone.

"What's wrong?" - Kiba asked surprised. Never in his life had he seen Hinata act that way.

"That Yurubi! When used on a person who is not knocked out ... it ... as another effect. Oh1 This is so bad!" - everyone stared at her.

"What is it?" - Lee asked curious.

"The Yurubi is also used as a ... a ... a ... I can't say it!" - everyone watched as she blushed even more and buried her head on her hands.

"I don't get it!" - Temari said. It was then that she noticed Chouji was next to her, and staring at her. But something about his gaze ... something was definitely different.

"You're the most beautiful girl I ever saw in my life, Temari-chan!" - Chouji stated, with eyes shining.

"Ugh! I don't have any food with me Chouji-kun!" - Temari was not liking the gaze in his eyes. Something about it was clearly wrong.

"Who cares about food! Right know all I want to get is you ... sweet Temari-chan!"

"UGH?!?" - Temari backed away. And then it finally hit her. - "IT'S AN APHRODISIAC!!!" - everyone was like "WHAT?!?"

Sasuke grunted and got up slowly. - "Sasuke-kun, you alright" - Sasuke massaged his tempers and then opened his eyes. Sakura felt uneasy when he gazed on her, and then when he held both her hands against his chest, she blushed madly. - "Sa-Sa ... Sasuke-kun!" - Sasuke leaned forward, his lips almost touching hers.

"Never before have I noticed how beautiful you were!" - Sakura blushed even more. - "Sakura-chan ... can I kiss you?"

"WHAT?!?" - Ino got up, trying to rip her hair off. - "Don't even think about it Sakura!" - but when she looked, the two genins had already locked lips. - "KYA!!!!!!!!" - Ino fainted, and was caught by Shikamaru before hitting her head on the ground.

"So it really works as an aphrodisiac, ugh?" - Kiba asked surprised.

"Y-Yeah! A very powerful one actually!" - Hinata said sorrowfully.

"And you carry that around like if it was nothing at all?" - Kankuro asked surprised.

"Ugh ... Sorry!" - she said timidly.

"You might want to split those two appart before they decide to pass on to stage two, three or even four right here in the middle of the street." - Shino said, while evryone watched Sasuke and Sakura make out ... but I real mean make up ... on the ground.

"Grr! Who does the honors!" - Kiba said, and before they knew it ...

"Leaf spinning wind!" - Lee used his special techinque on Sasuke, who was too absorted in Sakura, to even dodge it. Sasuke went flying to the next wall. - "No one touches my Sakura-chan!" - they sweatdropped. Lee ran to Sakura and started shaking her. - "Sakura-chan, Sakura-chan! You alright?" - Lee made a pose. - "I'll protect you with my life. No one will ever hurt you my dear and beautiful Sakura-chan."

Everyone watched as a very flushed Sakura gazed up at the sky and sighed ... in a very passionate way. - "Sasuke-kun!" - she whispered. Lee fell back, defeated.

"Ok! That was weird!" - Kiba sighed and Akamaru barked.

"If you think that was weird, then check this out!" - Kiba looked up to see Chouji running after Temari who was currently trying her best to get away from a very 'excited' Chouji. Who for once in his life was more interested in a girl than in food.

Temari came to a halt. - "Stop it Chouji-kun! You're under the effetc of a very powerful ... drug. You're not yourself right now! So no! I will not introduce you to the wonders of youth!" - (Eek! Am I really writing this down?) Chouji approached her, and hugged her. Temari flushed when his hands got around her waist, and his head buried in her chest.

"Temari-chan! Don't be mean to me!" - Chouji said in a very soft voice.

Next thing you new, a column of sand separated the two and Chouji was sent flying in the air.

"Get away from my sister you perv!" - Gaara yelled. Fighting hard against the urge to kill the chubby genin.

Chouji rolled over and sat up on the ground, crying. Everyone stared. - "Temari-chan!" - and he cried some more.

"Ugh! I'm felling sorrry for him!" - Temari said calmly.

"Chouji-kun didn't inhale that much, so he is probably of no threat." - Hinata said nervously.

"Right!" - Temari ran to where Chouji was and kneeled besides him. - "Don't cry Chouji-kun! You're acting like a cry-baby!" - Chouji looked up at her and wiped the tears from his eyes.

"I was actually crying because I hit my head on the wall and it hurts!" - Temari sweatdropped.

"So the idea of eating me is off your head already, right?" - he nodded. - "Good!"

"Set here!" - Chouji asked her to seat next to him, and she agreed. Before she knew it, he already hugged her again, but this time not burying his face on her chest, much to her relief.

Gaara, on the other hand, was fighting very hard against his killing intent.

"Well ..." - Hinata started.

"Wait! If it depends on the doses you take ... what the hell will happen when Naruto wakes up?" - Shikamaru asked. And as if a cue, Naruto started to stir. Everyone stiffed.

"Ugh?" - Naruto rubbed his eyes and yawned. Then he felt something wet on his head and lifted a hand to touch the weird smelling liquid. He sniffed at it for a while, and decided it was definitely not a good smell. He got up and cleaned the dirt form his orange pants. Then he looked up, to see everyone staring at him, as if expecting something from him. - "What? Why are you all looking at me like that?"

"Aren't you felling ... weird or something?" - Gaara asked.

"No! Actually I feel great! But God! It's hot in here don't you think?" - Mush to everyone's surprise, Naruto took off his orange jacket. - "Better, but not good yet!" - he was felling uneasily heated and he knew his cheeks were red. He raised his hands and touched his cheeks. «Yup! Definitely hot!» - "Does any of you have water? I'm feeling really thirsty." - they all said no, except for Hinata, who appeared to bring everything on with her. - "Arigatou Hinata-chan. You're my savior!" - Naruto walked up to her calmly, followed by the gaze of everyone.

Hinata took a bottle of water from her bag and handed it to Naruto, who was currently sweating very much. - "Naruto-kun, you don't seem very well." - Hinata raised a hand to touch his forehead, but he had no fever.

"Yeah! I don't feel all that well." - Everyone sighed relieved. Seemed like the aphrodisiac had no affect on Naruto.

Hinata was about to take her hand from Naruto's forehead, when he grabbed it gently, pressing it against his cheek. - "You're hand is cold and my skin is boiling! It feels good!" - Hinata blushed and Kiba growled. Seemed like they were wrong, it had made effect after all.

Naruto's gaze diverged from Hinata's face when he heard a noise. - "Sasuke?" - Naruto looked at his teammate, and could barely contain his laugh. The other boy was all beaten up. - "Muaahhh!" - everyone sighed again. After all, Naruto was immune to the aphrodisiac. Or else he would not have stopped just because of Sasuke.

"Shut up dobe! It's not funny!" - Sasuke growled. - "That was the most embarrassing moment of my life!" - Sasuke muttered under his breath.

"Seems like a punch works just fine!" - Lee added. - "When TenTen wakes up, and to prevent further embarrassing situations, we'd better beat her up!" - Everyone stared at him. - "Oops! Did I just say that! NO! No one hits TenTen!" - Lee panicked.

"You were the one to suggest it stupid!" - Kankuro sighed. Then everyone looked around. Normally, Neiji would've said something to annoy Lee, but there was no retort. When they found Neiji ... they gasped.

Neiji was standing above TenTen unconscious body, KISSING her.

"NEIJI, you mother-fucker! Get your hands off of her!" - Lee yelled with all his might. (Sorry about the bad language. I actually love Lee-kun and I know he would never say that!)

Neiji looked up, glaring at Lee. - "Shut up! I'm trying to wake her up!" - Neiji stated calmly.

"Kissing her?" - Lee emphases. Neiji looked at Lee, and then at TenTen, and then at Lee again.

"You're right? What the hell am I doing?" - Neiji got up in a flash, blushing madly, like he had never before. - "Argh! She's gonna hate me now! Please don't tell her Lee!" - everyone sweatdropped. It was of course, the effect of that love potion ... not to call it something else.

"Ah! Neiji is finally crawling at my feet! I knew this day would come eventually." - Lee gave a scary laugh, and everyone was like -_-()

"Shut up!" - seemed like Neiji had regained his senses, and he punched Lee's jaw, sending him into the air. Everyone clapped in joy. A crying Neiji was not something they enjoyed watching. They preferred the cold-hearted bastard.

TenTen finally woke up, seeing Neiji punch Lee. - "Neiji-kun!" - she got up and ran to him, grabbing his right arm. - "You're so strong Neiji-kun!" - Neiji blushed

"TenTen ..." - Neiji and TenTen started leaning closer to one another.

"STOP!" - Lee came between the two, before their lips met.

"What are you doing Lee-baka?" - Neiji punched him again. When the thick-brows was out of the way, Neiji put his arms around TenTen's waist and started leaning forward again.

TenTen was blushing, but was actually very happy. She always dreamed of having her first kiss with Neiji, and here they were, leaning on to each other. She closed her eyes and saw him do the same. Yes! Finally the time had come. When her lips finally touched his, she remembers thinking that it felt weird. The taste was nothing like the way she had imagined it to be. Actually ... it tasted quite odd.

TenTen's and Neiji's eyes flew open and they both threw up when they noticed that what they had kissed was ... Gaara's sand. (MUAH!!!)

"Sorry but I'm tired of all this fluffiness!" - Gaara said, not at all disturbed. The others sweatdropped.

"Hey, wait a minute! I'm missing something here!" - they all looked over at Kibo, who was currently rubbing his chin. - "Sasuke was affected, and even Chouji, TenTen and Neiji were and they only smelled it a bit. So why the hell didn't it affect Naruto?" - they all nodded. It was definitely weird. - "Hey, Naruto ... GAH!" - when they turned around to speak with him, they found the boy and Hinata in a very heated make - out.

They all gaped. Eyes snapping out and mouth hanging open.

"I'm so tired of this!" - Gaara fumed and commanded his sand to separate yet another pair of shinobis, much to their complain.

When Naruto was partied from Hinata, his eyes flared red and he charged at Gaara. - "What do you think you're doing?" - Naruto yelled.

Gaara raised his hand, and slightly slapped Naruto. And that was enough to bring usual Naruto back. - "Ah! What?" - they all fell back anime-style. Seemed like the effect was not all that durable, much to their happiness.

After a couple of apologizes and few blushes more, they finally decided to continue their journey. Everything was normal now ... except for Chouji who was still hugging Temari ...

MUAH!!! I know this is insane and they seem way out of character. But the idea just popped up and I had to write it. Sorry if you didn't like it. It will get back to 'normal' on next chapter. Please review!
