Nebula's Echo (a Naruto Fanfic)

Chapter 29

AN; Hello fellow potatoes! (No worries, you can be a broccoli or sausage if you want :)

So, here's another update. Somehow I feel like its been a long time since I last updated... though I think I did it last week? Maybe my brain died and its actually been two weeks since the last time?

Well anyway, here's the long awaited update. But I have to ask, do any of you feel that this story is getting boring? Should I speed up the happenings just a bit? *~*

Well either way, have a good read! (and hopefully a nice and depression-free day as well!)

Ceiren POV

After helping Naruto out of his little breakdown, I decided it was prudent to take a nap. Needless to say, without my cushion, there's no such thing as an enjoyable nap. But hey, Ibiki is part of the torture and interrogation unit (I think), so some torture is to expected.

But to aim for my comfy sleep... that's low, Ibiki.

Faintly, I heard the proctor sneeze.

HAH, SERVES YOU RIGHT! SNEEZE, SNEEZE TO DEATH I TELL YOU!!!

"Alright!"

The sudden shout made me freeze. Ibiki can't read my mind, right...?

"Listen up! Here's the tenth and final question!"

I let out an almost inaudible sigh of relief.

Huh, really had me worried there...

"But, before I give you the question, there are some more rules that you need to be aware of..."

I gave an exasperated sigh.

Enough with all the rules dammit Ibiki! You talk too much!

Suddenly the door opened. The doors creaking was the only sound in the total silence following Ibiki's statement, well that and Kankuro's obnoxious "Huh?"

I facepalmed.

Awkwaaard.

Ibiki gave Kankuro a dark smirk.

"Ah, made it just in time. I hope you found your trip to the bathroom enlightening."

I spotted a tinge of panic on Kankuro's face at being discovered before I covered my face with my palms in utter shame.

Really, Kankuro?! The bathroom? Couldn't you cheat with a little more class?!?!?!
