Troublesome Shikamaru x Reader

Chapter 24: Catching up

It had been 9 hours since the boys left, and I've been in my room pacing back and forth, I was ready to leave, I had all my ninja stuff with me and both of my katanas. I had also made some pills and took some medication with me cause if I bumped into one of the guys, I couldn't just leave them there. I also mentally prepared myself for the worst and as for my unresolved umm feelings? That I have for Shikamaru, well I had to put them aside, I care for him, but as a comrade, and the goal is to achieve the mission but I do not want to abandon my friends. Well the rest of them are my friends but he is. I punched the wall, leaving a crack. "What the hell, why the frick dose he have this effect on me AHHHHUGHHH" I yelled in frustration 

I took a few breaths and decided to get up, I was there pacing back and forth when there was a knock on the door. I ran to open it and on the other side was.

"What are all of you doing here!! You three are supposed to be back at home!! And You are on a hunting trip with your brother!!! How did all of you get here so fast!" My future ladies in waiting were all in front of me. Gwyneth, Lola, Hayasaka, and Selena. "What the hell it's not a good time!!!" I yelled out. Selena sighed "That's why we're here, news travels fast" Selena said as she squeezed my hand reassuringly "Blondie do the thing," Gwyneth said and Hayasaka took a deep breath and

"So, Me, Lola, and Gwyneth were all going to go to see this merchant in the sand and we were on a ship when Tori send a message saying that you needed us. So, we changed course and came here to the leaf and luckily, we had all our weapons and fighting stuff on us so we left out bodyguards at the border and we ran and, on our way, we bumped into Selena and her brothers, all five of them, Danny, Rodney, Ronny, Sammy, and Max. She said that they were all headed back since they heard a rumor that snake man's layer was near and then a messenger hawk came for Selena and she opened it and it was from Tori, In the message, it said that Sasuke left to go on the dark side and that a team had already just left, consisting of, Shikamaru and most of your guy friends and that you eventually would sneak to catch up with them but let's be real Sasuke is traveling with the enemy so she asked us as your future ladies, to come and help you out. So obviously we will, so we convinced Selena's brothers that we were just going to visit you and we ditched then and we came running here and 9 hours later for me but technically for all of us together 2 of those 9 hours were all together, and now we are here and were ready to help" all in one breath as usual

I let them all in, the last time we were all together was my parent's funeral. We all sat down in the living room, "So what's the plan?" Lola asked, and honestly, I wasn't so sure, I took a moment to think. "The sound four is the most likely to guard Sasuke. And knowing Shikamaru, he would pair the big guy up with Choji. Then the guy with multiple hands must be like some spider so he must infuse chakra into his web's so the best person to counter that is Neji with his byakugan and rotation. That only leaves 2 head girl and that other chick and three of them. I'm not so sure about the powers of the others but" I started to think and then "Didn't one girl carry a flute so like the old tales, maybe she controls people or puppets with it" Hayasaka said, and she did have a good point. "But the thing is this, Naruto is the one that has to get to Sasuke, and Shikamaru is the team leader, so then if another fight happens, it is most likely for Kiba to stay back. Then Shikamaru while Naruto advances. I got it" and I was about to explain the plan when the front door opened and Tori came running in, "I found it, all it took to distract her was some Sake, I can't believe it took me this long nine hours. But here it is" she said as she panted. I opened up the book, "What's that?" they all asked and so Tori explained why I needed the book and all.
