        "Jessie-chan?"

        "Yes Shikamaru?" I sighed.

        "There's no more ramen..." I gasped, my grey orbs wide. "Impossible!" He sighed and came out of the pantry, "I'm afraid not, it's all gone." I glanced up at the ceiling surprised Naruto hadn't come barging down the stairs screaming bloody-murder yet. Well, he is a heavy sleeper... Moving on, if we didn't get any ramen soon all hell would break loose, for sure. "Okay, group meeting." "Should I wake Naru-kun for the group meeting?" Hinata asked in her usual soft voice, "No!" I nearly shouted and looked up once more to see if any peace had been disturbed. "Sorry, but this group meeting has to do with Naruto..." The group leaned in, gesturing me to continue. I sighed, prepared to break the news to them.

        "There's no more ramen left." That one sentence caused the whole group (aside from me and Shikamaru) to flip. Garra and Saskue actually had a look of fright on their face while the others ran around crying, either slamming into each other or the walls. "Calm down! You'll wake him!" I whispered-shouted. They slowed down, calming themselves by taking huge deep breaths. "We have a mission, we split into two groups, one comes with me to get as much ramen as we can and the other stays behind to distract Naruto." They nodded their understandings and looked at me once more. "Okay, Sasuke you stay behind with Shikamaru, Kakashi, TenTen, Hinata, Shino, and Lee to help think of a plan and to set it in motion." He nodded and their group huddled in a corner, probably thinking of a plan.

        "Next Neji, Choji, Kiba, and Ino, you come with me. We'll need man power." They nodded and we sprinted out of the house, into the car and sped down the road towards Sam's Club, the solution to your deadly problem.

        "We're back!" I sang as I entered through the front door carrying (with the boys'  and girl's help of course) 20 boxes of ramen. "Jessie-chan, where were you?" I heard Naruto's voice call back. I panicked and quickly shoved the boxes in my hands to Choji and ushered them into the pantry. "Uh... The track, really need to get these legs back in shape!" I lied nervously while lightly patting my calves to add to the effect. His mouth formed an 'o' and he nodded. "Cool, hey, can you make me some ramen? I'm still kinda tired." I nodded, "Sure, you go to bed I'll bring it up." I shooed him away and let out a breath I didn't notice I was holding. "That was a close one!" I grinned. They group nodded their agreements. "So... Who's gonna teach me how to make the ramen?" Groans of protests and annoyance filled the air.
