How curious... What program were you using?
If you haven't got Microsoft Word, you can try this
word count attachment for Firefox. You just have to highlight the text, and click the W icon in the bottom-right to see the number of words. Alternatively, you could
install and use OpenOffice (Smiter approved). It's 100% free!
Now then, those prompts look good, True.
I was using OpenOffice, actually. It seems to count certain punctuation as words. Doesn't matter, I found a simple online word counting program that seems more reliable.
"Eat your vegetables!"
"No!"
"Eat them!"
"No!"
"I said EAT THEM!"
"And I said NO!"
"You are such a baby!"
"Yeah, well, you're a total mom!"
"Just eat the freakin' vegetables!"
Sakura shook her head furiously. "No! No! No!"
Naruto sighed, slamming his head onto the counter. "You're always getting on my case about eating right, and now you won't?!"
"I don't care! I won't eat it! I won't, I won't, I won't!"
"If you don't, I'll make you!"
"Go ahead and try, fat head!"
The steamed broccoli on the table thought it best to stay out of the conversation.
"You are, without a doubt, the lamest Sage ever."
"Shut it, you stupid frog!"
Gamakichi grabbed Naruto with his tongue and threw him into the pond.
"I'm a toad, not a frog!"
Naruto sat up, sputtering. "Whatever! You shouldn't talk to the Sage like that!"
"And you shouldn't be spending all of your time thinking about girls!"
Naruto blushed. "I don't think about girls!"
Gamakichi nodded. "No, I guess you don't. You only think about one girl."
"I do not!"
"Then explain why your clones all look like Sakura!"
The hundreds of Sakura Clones had no answer for the toad.
Naruto shuddered slightly as Sakura ran her diagnostic on Naruto's arm.
"Your hands are cold."
Sakura nodded. "Yeah, they always are."
Naruto frowned. "You'd think Old Lady Tsunade would teach you some kind of hand warming jutsu."
Sakura smiled mischievously. "Who says she hasn't?"
Naruto's brow wrinkled. "Why don't you use it, then?"
Sakura's smile widened. "It's only for special occasions."
"Special occasions? Like what?"
"Oh, you'll find out later."
"Why later? I wanna know now!"
Sakura's grin was face splitting, all her teeth showing. "Oh, do you now?"
Naruto and Sakura were never allowed alone in the hospital again.
"Well hey, Sexy! Where you been all my life?!"
Naruto gaped at Sakura as she leaned against his doorframe.
"S-Sakura-chan?! What the hell?!"
"Hell? Hell is hot! So hot. I'm so hot. Aren't you hot, Naruto?"
"W-w-w-what?!"
Sakura tried to lean against him, but she fell into his arms instead. "Wow, walking is HARD! Hic!"
"Sakura-chan, you're drunk!"
"I am?! I had no idea!"
Naruto slammed his door, hoping no one had seen Sakura yet.
"What did you do?!"
"Well, Ino was there. And Sai. And drinks. Good drinks. Confidence drinks!"
"Damnit, Sai! I said no more stupid hookup plans!"
"I'm not wearing that."
"But Sakura-chan, you have to! It's part of the job! We're ninja, after all!"
"I don't care! I'm not wearing it!"
"We'll fail the mission if you don't!"
Sakura's eyes blazed as she grabbed the garment. "Whoever requested this mission is dead. Dead!"
Naruto breathed a sigh of relief as Sakura went into the dressing room. He wasn't sure who had requested the mission, but he would have to make sure to find the person and thank them before Sakura killed them. It wasn't every day you got to see Haruno Sakura in a bunny costume.
