Three again

Chapter 3: Sakura's rescue missions

Kina slammed the enormous Konoha phone book down on the counter of the Yamanaka Flower Shop. She stubbornly flipped though the pages, looking for a name. How dare they not ask her? She was a great babysitter! She loved kids! She had already decided that she was going to kill Shikamaru for not telling her about what happened to the other genins until she asked where Chouji was. She found the 'H's' and began scanning down the names. 'Hatake...Hatake.... Got it! Hatake Kakashi.' She slammed the book shut and called to her mother that she was going out. She threw her apron off and stormed out of the shop in pursue of the ex-AMBU and teacher of her Sasuke.

Kakashi glared at the door when he heard some one knocking. 'Goddamnit, I finally found my book and now I can't read it!' After getting thrown out of the book store Kakashi had brought Sasuke back to his house. He began tearing his house apart looking for his missing book. Sasuke realized that he could help with this and crawled under Kakashi's bed and began throwing random things out from under it: a few articles of cloths, weapons, pictures, a pink teddy bear Kakashi had lost, a few stuffed dogs, Mr. Uuki... until he finally threw out Kakashi's third volume of Make-out Paradise. Kakashi was delighted, however, Sasuke finally realized why Kiba like to destroy stuff. It was fun! Kakashi sat Sasuke down in an enormous cardboard box where he couldn't climb out and gave him a cookie for his efforts. He was just about to sit and read his book when the doorbell had rung.

He went to the door and opened it. "What do you--?"

A blonde blur zoomed past him and went straight to the cardboard box. "Sasuke-chan! There you are! I have been looking for all over the place, yes I have! Did you miss me?" Kakashi glanced behind him and saw Sasuke in the incredible death hug of Yamanaka Ino. Sasuke gave him a 'help me' look.

"Kina, what are you doing here?" Kakashi asked, pulling Sasuke out of her grip.

"I came to help you take care of Sasuke," she explained.

"No, sorry, I can't let you do that." Kakashi took Sasuke over to the kitchen counter and set him down. "The Sand-nins are taking care of him and they trusted me to watch him for the time being. I can't let you take him." Sasuke looked ecstatic. Maybe this guy wasn't so bad after all. "Besides I don't think he likes you very much." Ooh! Wrong thing to say Kakashi!

Ten minutes later kina skipped out of the house carrying Sasuke, who was looking back at the unconscious jounin. Never mind.

Sakura walked though the streets of Konoha with her mother and Hinata; Neji was there too, but he was only there because he had nothing else to do. Her mother was taking both of them out to buy new cloths. She and Hinata were looking in the window of a candy store, when suddenly they heard screams of terror and a cooing voice on the other side of the street. Neji pointed across the street. Turning they saw kina carrying Sasuke towards her house. Sakura gasped in distress.

"Sawuwe!” Sakura said.

"Kina-chan stole Sawuwe-kun from Gaw-ah's brother!!" Neji said with surprise.

Hinata looked back at Sakura's mother who wasn't paying attention to them. "Hurry! Let's go save Sawuwe!"

The three crept away from the store and began following kina. They followed her, undetected, to her house where she entered then shut all windows, doors etc.

"Now what?" Neji asked, as they stepped up on the porch.

Sakura began banging on the door. "You can't steal Sawuwe-kun! He belongs to Gaw-ah's brother!!" (Gotta love three year old logic) (Phoenix: I LOVE THAT LINE!!! Like, Sasuke's a pet gecko or something...)

The door opened slightly and kina's head popped out. "Sorry, Sakura-chan, Sasuke's staying with me now." With that she shut the door in their faces.

Sakura burst into tears and sat down on the porch. Hinata and Neji stared at the closed door, amazed that any one could be that rude. Suddenly, Sakura stopped crying and an evil look passed over her face, making the Hyuuga's back up. "Kiwa-chan... You will pay!"

Sakura knocked on the door of the Aburame-clan's house. A woman with traditional Shino glasses opened the door.

"Can Shiwo come out?" she asked. Hinata and Neji stood behind her wondering what her brilliant plan was.

"Hold on." The woman leaned her head back into the house. "Shino-kun! You're friends are here!"

A few minutes later, Shino was sitting in a small clearing in the woods with Sakura and Hinata. Allow me to take this moment and briefly describe three-year-old Shino for you. (Shieka clears her throat) He is taller then Sakura, Hinata and Neji cause Shino is one of the tallest genins in Naruto, he's wearing a gray hood and brown pants and instead of his Shino glasses he has on goggles (not like Naruto's old goggles, but like the kind you wear when you go skydiving, or mud racing (which is like the scariest, coolest thing in the world). Sakura had made Neji leave saying he would get in the way.

"So will you help us?" Sakura asked after she explains the situation to the three-year-old bug user.

"Please?" Hinata begged. After hearing Sakura's idea she was eager to help.

"What's in it for me?" Shino asked frowning behind his goggles.

"We'll let you take care of the bugs in Gaara's house." Hinata said.

"Ok." Shino said.

Sakura, Hinata and Shino crept into the alleyway behind the Yamanaka flower shop. After making sure kina was in there (standing behind the counter with Sasuke strapped to her back). Sakura turned and began to explain the steps to fulfilling her plan.

"Using mainly dolls--" Sakura said.

"No! Spoons!" Hinata interrupted.

"Spoons," Sakura nodded deciding that was a better idea, "we dig a tunnel underneath the store and up into it where we release Shino's bee and wasp collection. Ok?"

"Spoons?" Shino asked in monotone. "Why not just go through the front door so we can get out with Sasuke faster?"

"Cause that's to hard. My way's easier."

".....riiiight..." Shino said, giving them a weird look. "But if we go through the front, we'll be taking her by surprise!"

"No she'll be expecting that," Sakura insisted.

"But she'll be expecting that we'll be expecting that she's expecting that and since she's expecting that we'll be expecting that she's expecting that, we know that she'll be expecting that we're expecting that she's expecting that we're expecting to do something else." (Shieka Goes and sits down for a while since she just broke her brain trying to write that (Phoenix didn't even try to read that)) Shino crossed his arms and waited.

Sakura thought this over. "Shiwo's right," she told Hinata (Neither of them understood what he said it just sounded smart).

Hinata gave a little pout. "Can I still use my spoon?" she asked, holding a large metal soupspoon she had acquired from the Hyuuga kitchen.

"Sure, you can use it to distract Kina with it, while I get Sasuke." Sakura said.

"OK!" Hinata said,

"Ready?" Sakura put her hand out and the two others put their hand on her's. "Let's go!"

Sasuke glared at the flowers and door every time Kina turned her back to it. He was strapped to her back and could only stare at the wall, until she turned around for some reason. 'Stupid Gaara's family,' he thought to himself. 'How dare they leave me with that crazy, weak one-eyed guy!'

The bell on the door chimed as a costumer stepped in. Ino turned to greet them. "Hello! Welcome to--oh hi Hinata!" Kina leaned on the counter to look down at the Hyuuga head's oldest-now-youngest. "How are you?"

"I'm fine," Hinata said extra sweetly, clasping her hands behind her back.

"Do you want some flowers?" Kina asked.

"No." Hinata

"What is it then?" Kina asked.

"I want.... TO SAVE SAWUWE!!!!" Hinata whipped out her spoon and jumped onto the counter and began thwacking kina with it. Sasuke couldn't be happier. (You could hear the hallelujah chorus. Phoenix: (off-key) Ahhhhhhh-AAAAARCGH! Kyuubi: Shoot him, please, MAKE IT STOP! Shieka: (does so, by shooting Phoenix in the head))

The door burst open and Sakura and Shino ran in. While Ino was distracted by Hinata, Sakura freed Sasuke and all four ran for the door. Ino looked up and saw that Sasuke had escaped and began chasing them. She stopped short when Shino barred her way. In his hands was a big box. He smiled up at her and opened it, releasing all his wasps and bees into the flower shop. Ino screamed and ducked under the counter as thousands of flower loving creatures zoomed around. With that Shino followed the others leaving te door open slightly so his bees could find their way home.

Sasuke felt as though Christmas had come early (or if he was still older, someone told him he killed Itachi). He hugged them all a hug in thanks (yes even Shino, their three peoples). Then they walked off to look for Gaara to return Sasuke to Gaara's brother. How ever they never made it that far. Sakura happened to see an enormous green asparagus that resembled an anime version of Bruce Lee is carrying a friend of her away.

"Why is all my friends getting stolen?" she asked no one in particular.

"Lee isn't staying with Gaw-ah's brother," Sasuke told her

"So?" Sakura asked. "We need to save Lee now too!"

Insert ten minutes of pondering.

"We need Kiwa's help," she said when she thought of something much more eviler then her plot against Ino. Shino and Hinata led them over to the Inuzuma house where dogs roam free and the fleas enjoy life.

Kiba came out when he saw them with Akamaru, who was now very big compared to his master and it freaked the poor puppy out, but he got over it. Sakura didn't even finish telling him her plan before he agreed.

Disclaimer: The following method of Saving Lee was not my idea. It came from that movie Cheaper By the Dozen that is where I got the original idea for this fanfic. Please don't flame me. For better kicks then reading this watch the movie and put the Naruto characters in.

It was pure coincidence and luck that Gai wasn't wearing his favorite green outfit. Lee had had an accident and now Gai had to wash it. Gai's washer and dryer were in the basement and he and Lee were upstairs. Sakura, Sasuke, Shino, Hinata and Kiba climbed into the basement through the little window and opened the dryer. With two kunai Sakura lifted out the green outfit and stuffed it in a bag. Handing the bag to Sasuke and Shino she nodded to them.

"Be back in five minute," she said to them as they climbed back out the window. As the two boys left, Sakura, Hinata and Kiba went around front and knock on the door.

"Yes?" Gai asked as he opened the door, donned in a green robe.

"Can Lee-kun come out and play at Kiwa's house?" Sakura asked in an ultra sweet voice. Knowing how much Lee liked Sakura when they were older, Gai of course said yes and sent Lee off with them, saying he'll pick Lee up at Kiba's house in a few hours.

A Few Hours Later

Gai knocked on the Inuzuma's front door, now dressed in his nice clean green outfit. Kiba's older sister Tsume opened then door and greeted him. She ushered him into the house and said she'd go get Lee. She went upstairs to look for him, leaving Gai in the living room. However the kids were not upstairs they were in the next room over, keeping four of the Inuzuma dogs at bay. Tsume came back down and assure Gai he wouldn't have to wait to long. Just before she entered the room where the six kids were, they let go of the dogs and pretended (quite well actually) that they were doing nothing wrong.

Tsume smiled at them. "Lee-kun, Gai-sensei is--"

She was cut off by a blood curtling scream of terror in the living room. Tsume rushed into the room and saw Akamaru, Kuromaru, and two other dogs practically attacking Gai. Licking him, chewing at his cloths. Tsume looked practically horrified and began trying to call the dogs off. However, even dogs as well trained as Inuzuma dogs can't withstand the smell of fresh meat, which is what Shino, and Sasuke soaked Gai's cloths in. The six kids tried to hide their laughter, but Tsume heard them and turned to them. They immediately stopped.

"I don't suppose you guys had anything to do with this?" she asked.

They all shook their heads.

"Are you lying to me?" she leaned closer to them. A more hesitant shake this time. She leaned closer.

"DADDIS!!! THE DOGGO ARE ATTACKING THE GREEN MAN!!!!!" Kiba suddenly shouted. "AND TSUWE SAYING IT'S MY FAULT!!!!"

Tsume turned away quickly to defend herself from Kiba's accusation, she turned to glare at them, but they were nowhere in sight. They had all ran out the door and Kiba had some how dragged Akamaru away too.
