Author's Note: Oh yes, I know what you're thinking. Oh no! Not another lame attempt by Natsumi-san to write something funny! Yup, you guessed right! Yes here, my dear victi-...err visitors, is yet another torturous fanfic written by moi in an attempt to smack the boredom right out of my head. One sunny day (At least, I think it was! I wouldn't know, I was inside our house in my own little world) I was just staring at my computer screen, trying not to go insane and murder my computer. I hate HTML I gotta tell you. Finally in an effort to preserve the life of our computer, I took a break and decided to just lie on my bed. I decided I'd been sitting in front of the computer for too long. Then I realized, just lying down on my bed was BORING. I searched for a book to read, but every single book I owned, and my parents owned, have already been read by me. Five times if my counting is accurate. So with nothing left to do, I entered the world of imagining. There I was seeing Tokiya performing in a rock band (hey, it's MY imagination!) when I suddenly got the idea, what if Tokiya had a kissing booth. The line would certainly be long. And I guess that would go for Recca too, and Saicho, and Raiha. Maybe Kurei, if Kurenai could develop amazing powers of multiplying herself. But, what if Domon had his own kissing booth? I could just see it, one of those balls of whatever you always see in Westerns rolling along the space in front of Domon's booth. So anyway, now you know why I conceived such an insane idea as this. Uh-oh, you found me out! Yes this extremely long author's note was written to hide the fact that the fanfic has no value WHATSOEVER. It's not even funny. It doesn't have a plot, well much of it. (Like Still Waters Run Deep. Now that majorly lacked a plot) So anyway, if you're still interested in reading it even after you've made me spill the beans that it's worthless, go on.If you DO read it send me your feedback why don't you? And be kind please! *sobs* Pass me the Kleenex, Tokiya.
"Come one, come all! Visit the amazing Hokage Carnival!" Satori cried. "Check out the amazing treats we have in store for you! See the amazing Freezer Boy! The most beautiful guy in the world who can turn you to ice with just a look! Is he a guy or a girl? He's so beautiful, even I'M not sure!" Satori, so involved in her pitch, was unable to feel the deadly glare that Tokiya was shooting at her. "After you've seen our own girlie-boy," Tokiya was slowly advancing on her now. "Why don't you check out our amazing zoo! The two most spectacular animals you'll ever view! We have Recca, the world's smartest and biggest sea monkey!" Recca stopped working on the tent he was pitching up to gape at Satori. He dropped his work and went towards her, shooting daggers, well shurikens rather at her back. "And see the Amazing Domon! The world's ONLY Strongest and Most Human-like Stuck-nosed Pig!" Even Domon heard her, even though he was all the way at the back of the lot reserved for the Hokage Carnival. "And see the amazing Koganei who can slay his enemies by insulting them to death! The world's youngest bratty killer!" Lucky for her, Satori dropped her megaphone, because if she hadn't bent down to pick it up, the Crescent form of the Kougan Anki would have hit her. "And see also his partner Gondo the fox! The most perverted and talkative stuffed doll fox in the world! See also his adorable Master Ganko! The cutest thing you'll ever see!" Gondo was last seen jumping up and down and swearing at Satori before he was thrown into the air by Ganko. "Also, view the last remaining Princess in Japan! The loveliest hime in all the world!" Yanagi blushed and ducked her head and went quickly to her tent which was actually the storytelling tent. "And finally for our final and BEST attraction, Fuko Kirisawa, child of wind! The prettiest, and hottest fighter you'll ever lay your eyes on! Watch her perform her daring moves as she jumps at LEAST 50 feet in the air and throw cute little Soul of Winds at you!" Fuko smiled and gave the V sign at the crowd gathering near Satori. When she turned back, she saw that the four male members of Hokage were quickly walking towards her, with bloody murder in their eyes. 'Uh-oh, looks like Satori's gonna get it!' Fuko thought.
"And I am the ringmaster of this circus-I mean carnival! Satori Narazaki at your service!" Satori cried. "So visit our Hokage Carnival Believe me, you'll thank me for it! I won't even charge you for the tip! So come on in, and see what makes it so cool! Aside from me of cou-WHOA!!!" her pitch was cut off when suddenly, Recca, Tokiya, Domon and Kaoru all grabbed her up from behind and carried her off. "Hey put me down! Baka!!!" Satori's eyes grew wide as she saw where they were taking her. "Oh no! Don't you even dare! Put me down right NOOOW!!! OH NO!!!!" she yelled as the four threw her into the dunking pool, which was fortunately filled with water already. At the resounding splash, the four turned to each other to congratulate themselves.
"Hey I got my clothes wet." Koganei said with a frown.
"Totally worth it, Koganei." Tokiya said. The four nodded in agreement.
"You'll pay for that!" Satori who finally surfaced yelled. "I'll make your descriptions even worse!"
"Yeah, yeah." Recca said as they all walked away.
Satori climbed out quickly and ran to the water balloon table. With an evil grin she picked up one balloon and took aim. Her eyes lit on Tokiya and she let the balloon fly. Three more quickly followed and they found their targets with a satisfying SPLAT! "I always keep my promises." Satori said as she, Fuko and Ganko all fell down laughing.
"I don't see why we have to do this!" Tokiya complained. Satori stopped and looked at him, exasperated.
"Tokiya-chan, stop acting like a little brat and just set it up. We're doing this for a good cause remember?" she told him.
"WHAT good cause? I have no idea what we're doing this for exactly, since you haven't bothered to tell us what the good cause is!" he looked at her. Everyone else stopped and looked at the two.
"Um you know, now that I think about it, Mikagami's right. Satori you haven't told us why we're doing all this for!" Recca said.
"Uhm, well, uh," Satori stammered out. She glanced around desperately and her wide eyes landed on Tokiya. "It's to uh, pay for Tokiya's wardrobe!" Ignoring the boy's yelp of outrage at being used as an excuse, she went on. "Yeah because of the Urabutousatsujin, all those expensive rich kid clothes of his were ruined by cuts and bloodstains. That goes for everyone else too. I mean, Fuko! I mean especially after what that pervert did to your clothes! We all need some wardrobe change." she said triumphantly.
Everyone just looked at her, in complete and total awe. Kaoru spoke up, "Well that ladies and gentlemen, is the power of imaginative thinking!" Satori blushed and glared at him. "What's so unbelievable about that?"
"Well, it really IS a dumb excuse." Domon volunteered.
"Well, Satori-san, can't you at least show us a little respect by making up a better excuse? I mean our intelligence was insulted by that one." Fuko said, grinning.
"That was an excuse?!" the fox exclaimed. Everyone fell over.
"You fell for it?!" Even Satori was shocked.
"Figures." Ganko moaned. "Only HE would fall for Satori's lame excuse!"
"Hey, don't go ragging on the cause now!" Satori cried out. When everyone turned to look at her, she shrank and muttered, "It's all Tokiya's fault anyway."
Tokiya raised his eyebrows at her. "Alright, what crazy reason did you concoct now to put all the blame on me?"
"Well, you always wear those stupid suit things, so while I was trying to make up a good cause, when I saw you, I latched on to that!" she said.
Tokiya's eyes narrowed. "Oh and that makes it MY fault?" When Satori nodded and stuck out her tongue at him, he exploded. "Now that's even dumber than the first one!"
"But that's not the only reason!" she protested.
"Oh yeah?" he asked skeptically.
"Yeah! You get added points as the reason wyh it's so lame because you're mean!" Tokiya grabbed her by the shoulders and knocked his fist on her head. "Hello? Hello? Is there anything in there?" he said.
Satori squirmed out of his grasp. "You know full well, that's there something in there." she said.
"Yeah! hot air and nothing else!" he shot back.
"You're just saying that because I'm smarter than you!"
"You're not! You just talk big, and naturally the rest of the idiots mistake it for intelligence."
"You know a lot about mistakes! People mistake you for a boy all the time!"
UH-OH The entire Hokage gang was at one in their knowledge that Satori was in trouble big time. People continually mistaking him for a girl was very sensitive issue for Tokiya. Before things could get violent, Yanagi stepped in.
"Um, Satori! Why don't you tell us the REAL reason why we're having this carnival?" Yanagi intervened. The two stopped glaring at each other long enough to look at her. "Well, the real reason is..." Satori paused.
"WELL WHAT?!" everyone yelled at her, as she flinched, her hair flying backwards. She sweatdropped and held up both hands in front of her. "To tell you the truth, I don't know..." she said, her voice practically a whisper.
"WHAT?!" everyone shouted. Satori yepled and covered her ears. "Don't yell at me! Ask the author of this fic! I have no idea what the reason is!" she pointed towards Natsumi, who was currently cackling and casting spells at her black cauldron. Suddenly, everyone immediately busied themselves with other things. Satori looked around, sweatdropping. "Hey aren't you gonna ask her?" she said.
"Nope." Tokiya mumbled as he busily fixed the signs on the booths.
"Nah!" Koganei said as he refilled the water in the dunking pool which had lost some water due to Satori's unceremonious splashing earlier on.
"Have other things to do." Recca said as he sped quickly past towards the house of horrors, carrying monster masks and costumes.
"Fuko and I have to set up her show." Domon said, Fuko quickly giving her affirmation.
Satori scratched her head. "Why'd you all back off all of a sudden?" she wondered.
"Nah, don't wanna ask her. She's scary." This from Tokiya.
"Yeah, you couldn't pay us to
get near her." Recca said with Domon and Koganei nodding behind him.
By some strange twist of nature,
or maybe it was the author's revenge, anvils fell out of the sky and dropped
on the heads of the four boys. Satori winced and reminded herself never
to incur the wrath of the author ever again.
Now that the good cause issue was settled she gathered her materials and her clipboard and began to direct everyone about. "Fuko, go and set up your tent already. Tokiya and Recca set up your kissing booths already. I'm pretty sure this would be our main attraction." she ordered them and she winked at Fuko. "Tokiya especially whose line I believe, would be rather long comprised of all sorts of people, even those of another gender." Tokiya threw a pebble at her which she easily dodged.
"Satori no baka." he mumbled.
She pointedly ignored him and continued with her commands. "Domon, go help Koganei witht he dunking booth since you don't have an attraction on your own because you backed out on the strongest man tent." She checked off some things on her clipboard then looked at Yanagi. "Yanagi, have you and Ganko finished with the food stall?" At Yanagi's nod, Satori smiled with satisfaction and lowered her clipboard. "Yay! Everything's all set!"
She was walking towards the entrance when Domon caught up to her. "Satori, how come I have to help Koganei?" he said. Satori looked at him and scowled. "What is with you guys? First Tokiya, then you whine to me too! Can't you boys take a little work? The reason is you backed out of the strong man tent, and I had to assign you something because everyone has to contribute." she answered.
"Well why don't I set up a kissing booth like Mikagami and Recca?" he suggested.
Satori peered over him over her clipboard. "Uhm....did I hear you right? You want to set up a kissing booth like Tokiya and Recca?" she asked uncertainly.
"Yeah what's wrong with that? I'm sure you'll rake in tons of money! I mean what girl would be able to resist my amazing combination of good looks and strength?" Domon bragged.
Satori sweatdropped. "Who indeed?" she agreed, not wanting to hurt his feelings. "I'll bet you most of the tickets for my booth will be sold out even before Recca and Tokiya get to sell one! Most of them will be bought by Fuko of course!" Suddenly a sneakered foot came out from behind Domon and slammed into his head.
"You big idiot! Don't make up delusions about me okay?!" Fuko yelled.
Tokiya was glaring at Domon. "Hah! Delusions are right. You'll be lucky if you sell even one!"
Satori slipped close to Tokiya and hit him on the head with the clipboard. "You stop that right now!" She turned back to Domon, "Alright Domon, you can set up a kissing booth too." she told him.
Domon shouted." Alright! Fuko, prepare yourself for a million of my sweet kisses." he said, with hearts in his eyes.
"I'M NOT GONNA KISS YOU!" Fuko shouted again which Domon ignored as he walked over to an empty spot to set up his kissing booth.
"Satori, that was nice of you to let Domon do that, but don't you think he'll be even more hurt if no one goes to his booth?"Fuko said.
Satori stared down at the ground. "Well, I really didn't want to hurt him." she mumbled.
"Well, maybe things'll work out." Fuko said comfortingly.
"Yeah, maybe a miracle would happen and all the girls suddenly become blind and wander over to Domon's booth." Tokiya said.
Satori's eyes narrowed and she
scowled at him. "Don't be so nasty! Geez, it would serve you right if some
drag queen bought a ticket to your booth!"
Oh, no, here they go again! Fuko sighed and walked away from the two.
"Welcome! This area is our Kissing Booth section! Please buy your tickets over at the counter!" Satori cried to the people milling around the grounds. The kissing booth area had been open for an hour and it looked exactly as she had predicted. Long lines snaked around the grounds. The longest line was to Tokiya's booth, and Recca's was just a few people short. Probably because of the way Yanagi was glaring at some of the people who approached ot buy a ticket to Recca's booth.
"Oh, Recca, you're SO popular with girls." Satori had heard Yanagi tell Recca awhile ago just before Yanagi dropped a box on Recca's foot. She shook her head, grinning. She wandered over to Tokiya's booth.
"Come on! I bought a ticket! You HAVE to kiss me." a pretty girl wailed. Her face was expertly if a bit overly made up. Whoever did her make up obviously had a heavy hand with cosmetics, at least it did not detract too much from her looks.
"Argh!" Tokiya groaned, as he fought the girl, who was winding her arms around his neck, leaning over the booth's table. He had half-turned away from the girl and was struggling to pull her off. 'That's strange. Even if Tokiya's really reluctant to kiss someone he wouldn't treat a girl so roughly.'
Satori walked over to the two and said, "Come on Mi-chan! She did pay!"
Tokiya turned and scowled at her. "I JUST DON'T WANT HIM TOUCHING ME!" he yelled at her. Just was Satori thought, 'HIM?!' the girl"s(?) excited movements caused her plastic boob to fall down onto the ground.
Satori sweatdropped and struggled not to laugh. "Serves you right, Tokiya! Now pucker up!" she walked away laughing hard.
She looked towards Recca's booth and and saw that Recca was giving a kiss to a girl who was obviously into pumping iron. Her body was so muscled you could mistake her for a wrestler. Right now she was holding Recca in a tight grip as she kissed him, while Recca was turning blue from lack of air. She glanced at Yanagi who was pointedly ignoring Recca's table and was counting the money they had earned. She leaned on a wall and watched as finally the strong girl released Recca, leaving the Flame Caster sprawled on the floor behind his booth gasping for air. "Hey Yanagi! Give Recca CPR over there!" Satori said to Yanagi.
Yanagi looked at Recca then turned her head away deliberately and said, "Hmph!"
"Oooooh, he's so cute! He's so beautiful! AIIII! Come on baby light my fire!" Satori heard a voice cry. She turned to face the source of the sound and saw that more um non-guys populating Tokiya's line as the boy in question was looking around desperately for an escape. Satori laughed so hard that she fell on the ground.
"I guess my words are more powerful than I thought!" she got out between laughs. She saw that Recca was currently picking up a little girl and giving her a kiss. She smiled when the little girl, who was about Ganko's age extend to him a doll. Recca dutifully kissed it. 'Wait a minute! That IS Ganko!' Satori realized.
Ganko lowered her doll and shoved the stuffed animal fox at Recca's face. Both Recca and the fox recoiled away from each other, Recca inching backwards, the fox squirming in Ganko's grasp.
"NO WAY!" the two shouted in unison.
Even from her spot, Satori could see the steel in Ganko's sweet smile and again she shoved the fox into Recca's face. Satori snickered and turned away. She saw that Tokiya was also a recipient of kissing a doll also. An inflatable one, that was held by a pretty teenager. Like Recca, he was reluctant to do so, but when he caught Satori's sharp glance he brushed his lips against it quickly then ran off the the washroom.
"YUCK!"
Suddenly above the cacophany another sound could be heard. 'IT'S NOT FAIR!!!!!" Satori flinched and looked over to Domon's direction. The area in front of his booth was eerily quiet. Not a single soul could be seen. One of those tangled ball of twigs and dust cold be seen rolling in front of it with the wind audible in the quiet. In contrast to the other two booth's Domon's line was completely nonexistent. Domon himself was standing behind his booth and sobbing. (you know those wavey like tear thingies?)n Satori winced at the expression on Domon's face. Normally what one feels for Domon is irritation combined with amusement, the way you felt about a clown. He was sometimes annoying especially because he had a delusional idea about himself, but even so... to have your lack of appeal thrown so, so blatantly in your face, it was so pathetic!So what are you going to do about it? the question struck her unexpectedly. What WOULD she do about it?
'Well, I can always kidnap, errr....persuade a few girls to go over to his line...but then Domon might get offended that i had to do that just to get someone to kiss him...plus the girls might kill me. So what DO I do?', Satori wondered. Even as she thought it she was walking over to Yanagi and was pulling out her wallet. She produced some money and held it out to Yanagi who was looking at her. "For Tokiya?" she asked. Satori took a deep breath and shook her head. "For...Recca?" she asked. Again Satori shook her head, thinking, 'Am I really gonna do this?' The firm answer was, 'I will'
"For...Domon?" Yanagi whispered. Satori bit her lip and nodded and handed Yanagi the money. Her eyes wide, Yanagi pulled out the specially made tickets they had for the kissing booth. Tokiya's was a blue one, his picture showed him pushing back his bangs in that adorable way of his. Recca's was red-orange, making a V sign and grinning widely. Domon's was brown, with Domon posing like one of those body-builder types. Yanagi ripped one from the pile and handed it to Satori, saying, "It's so nice of you."
Satori slowly extended her hand, hesitating. She firmed her resolve and snatched it from Yanagi and held it away from her like it was a poisonous snake. Domon was a good friend but the thought of kissing him made her want to hurl. She walked to Domon's booth, her steps slow and deliberate. Everyone slowly hushed and turned to watch her. Tokiya stopped struggling with another girl and stared at her. Under their close scrutiny, she felt her face go pale as she reached Domon's booth. Her hand was shaking as she handed it to Domon. He was looking at her with a sad expression on his face. "You don't have to do this, Satori-sama." he whispered to her. It was probably because of this, and the extremely pathetic way he looked that Satori stopped shaking. "I want to, Domon-san." she said with a smile. She leaned over the booth and.....KISSED him!
"WOW!!!" Domon yelled as she pulled away. Hearts popped into his eyes and he shot into outer space. Satori fell on the ground and sat, rummaging for tissue. A shadow fell over her and when she looked up she saw Tokiya looking at her with the strangest expression.
"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DID THAT!" his voice was unusually loud.
Satori blinked at him. "I did it. Deal with it!" she retorted, annoyed at his tone.
"How am I supposed to kiss you now, knowing you actually kissed that-" he stopped and looked around.
"WHAT?!" the shout came from everyone.
Tokiya quickly changed his statement. "I mean, I can't believe you did that!"
Satori stood up and placed her hands on her hips and glared at him. "It's none of your business anyway, girlie-man!"
"Girlie-man! What about you? You're an airhead tomboy!" he shot back.
"Well you were probably born with liquid nitrogen in your blood vessels!" Satori yelled.
"What about you? You laugh so much people will think you're a loon! Oh, I forgot! You ARE a loon!" he shouted back.
"Why you-!" Satori jumped and landed on him and soon the two were lost in a cloud of dust, fighting.
"Fuko," she turned at the sound and saw that Domon had landed again. "Now that Satori's broken the vow of shyness you girls seem to have, come and kiss me." he puckered his lips and went after her.
"Get away from me!" Fuko yelped.
"Come on, Fuko!" he said Fuko imitated Satori's earlier move and began to beat up Domon.
Recca went around his kissing booth and was making gagging and spitting sounds. "Yuck! Why did that stupid author have to make me kiss that fox?" Recca made a face that said he was thoroughly disgusted.
"You think I'm any happier about it than you are?" the fox said, "I'll probably have nightmares about it for months!"
Recca grabbed him up. "You little twerp!"
Ganko jumped and tried to grab for the fox. "Give him back!" she said. "Nuh-uh, that reminds me! You were the one who made us do this!" Another ball of fight again.
Yanagi was sweatdropping when Natsumi tapped her from behind. "Well, Yanagi-san, since you're the only one left out of the fight, why don't I go and interview you? How does it feel like being the Hime of a ninja like Recca? The people want to know!" Natsumi said brightly. She had reverted out of her witch costume and had assumed her usual appearance of a beautiful *cough cough* petite, dark-haired girl.
"Well..." Yanagi began, "I suppose I could do that, but," gesutring towards the three balls of fight. "What about them?" she looked at ehr uncertainly.
"They're kinda embarrassing, why don't we just pretend we don't know them?" Natsumi suggested.
Yanagi nodded slowly when a new voice spoke up behind them.
"Hey, what's going on? Is the kissing booth closed now?" Kaoru Koganei looked at them completely bewildered. "What happened?"
Yanagi and Natsumi exchanged amused glances and said simultaneously, "We don't know what happened because we don't know them"
A question mark appeared over Kaoru's head as he scatched it. "Uh?"
Natsumi grabbed the boy's hand, as they were nearly the same height and age (13 HAH!) "Why don't you come along with us? We're going to have an interview. I have a few questions I have to ask you too, you know."
Kaoru perked up. "Really? What questions?"
Natsumi stopped and looked as if she were thinking seriously. "Well...how does it feel being the youngest member of Team Hokage? And how did you become such a violent brat?" This was said over her shoulder as she ran away, already being pursued by the Dragon form of the Kougan Anki.
And the three balls of fight rolls into the sunset....
