video/action - 12

[felltohate]

[ For the past... uh, whenever, Sasuke's been taking a nap outside, somewhere round about the lake (where he was training. shut up, it ttly makes sense). It's not exactly the safest course of action, but hey -- he figures that most people won't bother him if he hides out by a tree. And how long could a nap really take anyway? A half hour

[Naruto happens to be nearby, staring at the lake with a pretty happy expression on his face. He's obviously gonna get ready to swin around, so he's taking off his shirt.]

I'll show him! [No, he doesn't notice anyone nearby. |:]

[haruno]

[ Sakura, from where she stands keeping an eye on the momentarily 'helpful' Sasuke, catches sight of Naruto. Oh no, he was here too?

...She wasn't sure if she was happy, or distressed. At least he looked healthy and whole! ]

Naruto?

[felltohate]

[ Sure enough, there was Naruto. ... and was he stripping? ] ...

[nextgen_hokage]

[What, who called him. Oh, it's only Sakura.

Wait.] ... Sakura-chan?!

[haruno]

[ Prioritizing teammates sucks, but so does life, and this time Naruto wins. =|

Still with Sasuke's journal, she ~ninja speed walks~ over to Naruto, and promptly tries to smack him upside the head. Here he was, unharmed, and she'd been worrying about him back at home. Clearly, Luceti hadn't really been explained yet. ]

You idiot! Don't tell me you ended up here when fighting Pain!

[nextgen_hokage]

[Well. That really hurt. Can't say he didn't miss it.]

I was doing what now?

[haruno]

Fighting Pain. The Akatsuki were attacking Konoha, remember?

[ If not, she was checking for brain damage. Maybe that self-induced repression of the kyuubi had done some sort of mental damage. ]

[nextgen_hokage]

Konoha is under attack?! Oh man, I've gotta get outta here and help!

[Naruto would probably try to explain the concept of Luceti, and the whole time things going on, if he wasn't busy freaking the hell out about Konoha being attacked by the Akatsuki. And he's flailing around madly.]

[haruno]

[ Please let her not have hit an amnesiac Naruto, please have let her not have hit an amnesiac Naruto, if there is a god then please, please let her not have hit an amnesiac Naruto. ]

Calm down!

[ And accept Sasuke's journal, since she's thrusting it at the flailing Naruto in an effort to get him to focus and answer a few questions. At least she had no questions about his motor functions! ]

Naruto, what do you last remember doing? Can you tell me who the Hokage was before this one? How old are you?

[ Don't mind her, she's trying to see if his eyes are contracting like they should. ]

[felltohate]

[ YOINK!

He's taking that journal from Naruto now, since Sakura so willingly gave it away. Don't mind him, do continue what you're doing. He's just going to stuff that journal in his shirt and leave. ]

[nextgen_hokage]

[He'll calm down and kind of stare for a second. Those are some weird questions to ask out of nowhere. Totally ignoring Sasuke for the moment.]

I was training with the toads, and I'm 16. And the Hokage before Granny Tsunade was the Third. Is this a trick question?

[haruno]

[ Okay, so if he was suffering memory-loss, it wasn't his immediate or remote memory affected. In fact, he was acting perfectly normal, outside of not remembering the attack. ]

No, it's not. You really don't remember being called back to Konoha from your Sage Training? [ More muttered to herself, trying to figure this out, than to Naruto; ] Maybe the memory loss increases with every additional tail. No, that wouldn't make sense, and you ended it on your own anyway. Could it be a function of this place?

[ Which reminds her to look at the leaving Sasuke since he last pointed out some sort of page in her journal. Damnit, where's he going? But she already got him to unwillingly confirm that he couldn't leave. Which reminds her, since Sasuke never said... ]

Where are we?

[nextgen_hokage]

[He'll notice Sasuke now, but goes against saying anything. The last thing he needs is for Sakura to somehow find out that he died by Sasuke's hand.]

I don't remember any of that, but we're in this place called Luceti.

[haruno]

[ Ah, so this place did have a name. She frowns, and if she notices the fact he says nothing to the departing Sasuke, she's not asking about it right now. ]

Luceti, and it's not on our world, we've all got wings, and we can't leave yet. What else do you know? How long have you been here?

[nextgen_hokage]

[Sasuke's a jerkface, anyway. And he's not pleased when she asks what else he knows.]

We're experiments for some Malnosso badstards. And I've been here for like, three months.

[haruno]

[ This face. This face all the way before she manages to get out a rather loud - ]

What?! I need you to explain this to me -- [ and she frowns and turns around, since it finally penetrates that she's been staring at a topless Naruto, who is apparently not amnesiac, for the last who knows how long, and it's becoming somewhat uncomfortable. ] -- after you make yourself decent. Put on a shirt! I can't take you seriously like that.
