*a mini omake holiday special*
tsunade:obon's comming up. how should we celebrate?
shizune:well, the festival'll be in the fire nation in general.
tsunade:how about a village bond fire?
shizune:you mean bon fire?
tsunade: no. i mean bond fire. we can do it for the rookie nine reunion!
*later that night outside teams 7, 8, and 10 are by the fire planned by tsunade remenicing about old times*
shikamaru:how about we each share our favorite unforgettable memory?. in order team 7, then 8, then 10.
naruto: okay, i'll go first!. well, how about i tell you all how i graduated? it was after mizuki tricked me into getting the scroll. well, after iruka saw how hard i've been learning...
*flashback*
naruto: -eyes closed-
iruka: now open your eyes
naruto: -opens- I PASSED!? -feels his forehead ninja headband-
yruka:yes. i figured since you trained hard you deserve to go ahead, and graduate. your now a genin
naruto: ALRIGHT! I'M ON THE ROAD TO BEING HOKAGE! -thumbs up sighn-
*ends*
hinata: -blushes- -thinks- i'm glad iruka-sensei changed his mind, and let naruto-kun graduate.
sakura: hmmm my FAVORITE memory?...i've never thought about it.
shikamaru:it's fine sasuke can go next while you think of one.
sasuke: i don't have any...although one that STILL haunts me to this day...that had to do with our team...
*flashback*
naruto: i'm the only one who can bare the full brunt of your hate! it's my job noone elses i'll bare the burden of your hatered, and we'll die together
*end*
sasuke: that's not the naruto i know. what did that even mean
sakura: yeah i wondered that to.
naruto: well, if you look at in a different way it is something i would say. i was trying to tell you to if we faught THEN we'd end up killing eachother like what almost happened in the on the valley of the end. and that as a friend i'll try to make things easier for you so, you wont carry your burdans then we can "die together"...meaning none of us would have to kill the other.
all:OOOH.
sakura: now see? THAT actually made more sense.
naruto: okay sakura-chan did you think of one?
sakura: no, why don't the rest go?
naruto: great idea! we'll save the best for last
shino: well.... can it be with anyone or just with the team?
shikamaru: it can be with anyone. as long as it meant something to you...hence your favorite memory
shino: well, my dad, and i don't go on many missions together but, there was this one time...
*flashback [warning:filler due to shino not being in the series much]*
*after a mission shibi, and shino take a break, and walk around*
shino:you know...my dream is to find a large flying extict insect
shibi:if they're extict then that would be hard...what you need to find is a rare endangered one
shino:how can i find one?
shibi: a jutsu only known to the aburame clan. the insect magnet jutsu
shino:but, won't that attract all of them?
shibi: no. it's so ancient that it only attracts the rarest of the century....rare, endangered, foreighn ones not even found in our village.
shino: can you teach me?
shibi: yes... you know why?
shino:why?
shibi: because young grasshopper...your ready.
*end*
kiba: COOL! you have to show us that jutsu on our next mission
naruto: and you have to let me join you so, i can see it to
hinata: -blushes- -thinks- naruto-kun on a mission with us?
kiba: okay my turn! well, there was one time hinata couldn't come on a mission with us due to having chakra fever...so, my mother thought it would be a good idea to ask tsunade if hana can come with us, and if she herself can be our sensei because she wanted to show us something...well...
*flashback [warning:also filler]
tsume: so, your sister will be joining us., and i'll be your sensei for the day
kiba: alright
*after mission they go to the dog park aukemaru runs off*
kiba: WAIT! you need a collar first! *runs after him*
shino: why did we stop here?
tsume: follow us and you'll see!
*they all go to where aukemaru is, and he's with another female dog and her puppies
kiba: -gasps- they had puppies!
hana:kiba has been walking him here, and all this month aukemaru would meet his "puppy love"...this past week they must've had a great romance because now they're parents
kiba: -eyes water- if i was a dog i'd be a grandfather...i'm a grandowner!
shino: -thinks- and i'm the weird one?
*end*
sakura/ino: AWWW
naruto: did you keep them?
kiba: yeah she had two. so, hana decided to keep her, and the two puppies so, they can stay a family.
ino/sakura: AWWW
kiba: okay hinata your turn!
hinata: well, -thinks- -blushes-
*flashback*
*after hinata complemints naruto*
naruto: you know...i used to think you were weird, awkward, and shy
hinata: -feels embarressed-
naruto: but, i like...people like you!
*end*
sakura: you like people who are weird, awkward, and shy?
naruto: i think i was referring to what she said before that. i like people who think highly of others, and admires them for who they are.
sakura: i admire you for who you are
naruto: i know. and i love you even more each time you show it
sakura: -blushes-
hinata: -hangs head-
