And The Pain Ends

"What happens when eighteen teenage ninja's who were very drunk last night, wake up in the morning." Mitsumi's camera was rolling yet again. You see Gaara had complained because he couldn't stay longer because of his new duties as Kazakage and Mitsumi was making a tape to make him feel better, a lot better. "Our first stop will be Gai's house. Lee was taken there after getting extremely drunk on very little alcohol. There goes his title as the best drunken fighter. Hello Gai, please talk into the camera and tell us what you have planned for Lee."

Gai looked up and smiled, "Well after waking him up, since it is already six and he slept in, I am going to train him until his ears bleed." She watched as Gai filled up two tubs of water. One he put in ice and the other was warm. Gai then picked up the sleeping teen and carried him over. First he put Lee's face in the hot water then the cold over and over again. About ten minutes later Lee woke up. He was still very drunk but awake so Gai dragged him out to train him. (And if you have never seen lee fight drunk I suggest you go to you tube and look up the beer song.)

Mitsumi turned the camera back to herself. "Note to self. Never get drunk if Gai is in the same country as you, or even on the same continent. He is very scary. Ok anyway, next we will visit Shino." Once at his door Mitsumi knocked. Shino answered the door looking normal. "Hello Shino, how do you feel today?"

He looked at her, "Sorry you won't find a hangover here. I only drank enough to get buzzed last night and watch the pain of others in the morning. I will accompany you to Chouji and Taku's house though. It seems everyone else passed out there." (a little sadistic isn’t he? I don’t have room to talk though I do the same thing) So the two of them headed over there and walked in without knocking. Mitsumi found Shikamaru and Temari all over each other twisted around passed out on the kitchen floor. Yet again Mitsumi turned the camera to herself. "Now Gaara, I know he is laying there with your sister but don't kill him I swear he is in a very innocent position compared to others. Now let's go see the not so innocent.” She then began to walk around the house. She found Nenji passed out on top of Ten Ten first. His shirt was off and he was using her chest as his pillow. She mumbled, "see what I mean, and this isn't even the worst of it."

Continuing her walk through the house in the next room she found a shirtless Sasuke smirking in his sleep and a topless Sakura laying on his chest. Thank goodness Mitsumi couldn't see anything because they had a cover over them but she knew what had happened between the two last night. They had made their first attempt to revive the Uchiha clan. "Okay from where I'm standing it is hard to tell if this was an act of love or a drunken mistake. Let’s hope for Sakura’s sake it was an act of love. On to the next room." On the way to the backyard to see Ino and Kiba she found Hinata passed out on Naruto's lap. Naruto was leaning against the wall holding on to Hinata for dear life. She couldn't help herself. "Awwww how cute?" Mitsumi continued walking and saw Ino curled up in the fetal position in the back yard leaves and grass in her hair and Kiba in the same position wrapped around her. Yet again those words escaped just like they did with Naruto and Hinata. She then worked her way upstairs where she saw Kenshin and Shizuko asleep on the bathroom floor. Then she found Taku and Chouji only in underclothes on their bed.

Mitsumi walked back downstairs to the place where she saw Sakura and Sasuke. Shino walked out the door before she could execute her plan. Suddenly an alarm clock went off right by Sakura's head. Mitsumi had walked back to the door before it could go off. This is what she heard as complete chaos ensued.

Sakura: Where the hell are my clothes!!
Sasuke: (Screams) What did we do last night.
Ten Ten :Oh My ....
Nenji: How did I end up here? .. Mmmm so soft... Ten Ten?
Shikamaru: How did you sleep last night love?
Temari: My head is killing me.
Hinata: screams and only screams
Naruto: Hinata it's ok No don't attack me.

The ones upstairs were still calm. Soon everyone was down at the table discussing hangover recipes. Well all except Sakura and Sasuke, they had something else on their minds. At this moment they were very worried about results of last night. The rest of that day was sent videotaping and in pain.

Fast forward one week.

It had been a week and all the girls had been practicing everyday extremely hard. Taku walked out on the stage. "Today we present to you a new fighting style that was developed when Ino, Hinata, and I were on a mission to the land of lighting. It is a very effective technique when one person has a special power that you can all use if you match the movements. For instance We used this Techniques along with Hinata's byakugan and it aided us in capturing three missing nins from the village hidden in the clouds. Today Shizuko will be playing the flute for us." The curtain went up and they all took their places. They had each chosen an anubu member to fight using the style and when the music began , they began the dance. They were all using their best Justus but they were doing the same motions with their bodies. (please don’t ask me how this is possible) They could easily and fluidly dodge any attack the anubu's sent at them. "And now for a little more challenging demonstration."

They all took off your shoes and jumped into the trees. The music began to play again and they began to jump branch to branch in dance. Every time they hit a limb they threw a senbon needle. When the needle hit the anubu standing there was not allowed to attack, soon they all jumped down in a straight line in front of the Hokage and the Kazakage. Not a single anubu got the chance to attack. "All anubu's hit" It was the sound of eight voices melded into one, a very shocking sound to those who have never heard it before.

Tsundae stood up. Will all Anubu that were hit please step out of the forest. Forty anubu then stepped out of the forest. Tsundae counted them. "Yea that is all of them." The girls passed the test and each of them would be sent two girls straight out of the academy in three months to train. After they had taught them this skill though they would be put into the three man cells. To be honest they couldn't wait.

Fast forward two months and three weeks

It was a week before the graduation of the academy students. Taku noticed something in the way Sakura looked at people. Almost as if she was guilty about something. Taku walked up to her. "Sakura what's wrong?" Sakura mumbled something under her breath but Taku couldn't hear her. "Say that again, I didn't catch it."

"Oh please Taku, don't make me repeat myself it was hard enough to say it the first time as it was." She was getting kind of frantic.
"Okay calm down Sakura, take a deep breath. I really didn't hear you so please tell me in a voice I can hear." Sakura took a deep breath.

Suddenly she yelled out at the top of her lungs, "Okay, I am pregnant!!! Was that loud enough for you?!" Taku’s jaw dropped. She couldn't believe what Sakura just said even though the pink haired girl was showing the first sign, huge mood swings.
Taku grabbed her hand and started pulling her to Sasuke's house. "Okay, you need to tell him. He is going to be happy you know. It might be a bit of a shock at first but you have to tell him." She was crying, and her body language had I can‘t tell him written all over it. "Okay, I'll tell him, but you have to be there."

Sakura smiled and hugged Taku, "Oh Taku, You would really do that for me? Thank you so much. You are the best friend ever. I love you." Taku continued dragging the extremely emotionally unstable Sakura to her the house of the father of her baby.

Once there Taku knocked on the door and Sasuke answered. She pushed Sakura in through the opening and sat her on the couch. Sasuke just followed them hands in his pockets. "Okay now, there is something that Sakura wants to tell you but since she is an emotionally unstable mess right now I am here to be her voice. Sasuke, Sakura is pregnant with your child." Taku stated just as bluntly as if she was telling him his milk was expired.

"What..... when.....how could that happen?!" He fell from standing to flat on his but when he heard the news. Everyone knows how hard it is to shock a Uchiha that much.

"Well the what is that she has your baby in her tummy right now but it will come out in about six months. The when was at my drunken party at my and Chouji‘s house, sorry for contributing by the way, though you should really blame Lee he brought the sake. The how is well how do I explain this... oh I have it! When a mommy and a daddy really love each other.." He regained his composure cut Taku off right there.

"I know How it was done just shut up, I'm kind of in shock right here." He stood up and walked back to his bedroom. He came back out soon and kneeled in front of Sakura. "Sakura I wanted to save this for a more romantic time but under the circumstances." He opened a small box that held a ring and for once it was Taku struck speechless, out of all the reactions he could have had she never expected this one. "Will you marry me?" Instantly a camera started flashing and both parties of the couple looked over at Taku with a glare.

"Sorry guys couldn't resist. So Sakura what's your answer?"
Taku had just barely dodged a bullet there. While Sakura was hugging and kissing Sasuke and saying yes, yes, yes over and over again Taku ran to get the film developed and pass the pictures out. By the end of the day everyone knew about the engagement, even if not everyone knew about the bundle of joy the happy couple was expecting. Taku then went to Tsundae gave her a copy of the picture and explained why Sakura would not be up to training her first group of genin. Tsundae agreed and mumbled, "Well, I better get a wedding invitation at the least."

Taku then frolicked home and added the picture to her album along with other pictures she had taken with the film. There was a picture of Ino and Kiba asleep in the backyard. A picture of Naomi and one of Shino that she cut in half and placed side by side. A picture of Kenshin and Shizuko they took the day she spoke again for the first time. There was also a few pictures that Ino took of Taku and Hinata dancing around their guys on the mission. There were so many memories in this little album of hers. Taku smiled and slipped it back in her secret hiding place.

That night as she lay down, she spoke to Chouji. "Everything seems right with the world now. Shizuko is talking, Naruto and Hinata are officially a couple, three of our friends who have been paired off into couples are engaged and one is expecting a bouncing baby. I can't think of anything that could make this better." Chouji could think of something though. He thought of the little black box that looked so much like the one Sasuke had presented Sakura with that day. He decided to wait just a while longer. Then they both fell asleep.
