Best friends, always. (Naka and Yuudai)

"Yea, I remember that. It was kind of hard, challenging at least. Are you saying that we shoud dare each other again? Maybe race around the village? Two laps?"

Toshi smiled wider and nodded, stretching her arms. "I'm stronger than you think, you know," she said, grinning like Naka did.

"And I'm faster than you remember. What shall we start with first? A race or the dares?"

"We race. The winner gets to dare first." Toshi smiled excitedly and got into her starting position. "Three laps around the village?"

"Start here. No cheating, as in tripping, pushing or anything else to slow the other person down. Ready?"

Toshi smiled and nodded curtly as she took out a few sugar cubes and immediately devoured them.

Yuudai reached into his back pouch and pulled out a strength pill and ate it with a *crunch*. "Set?"

"GO!" she announced, grinning as she zoomed off ten times the normal speed she could go.

"Heh heh, all right!" and Yuudai took off sprinting just as fast, if not a little faster than her, so they were right next to each other.

Then her sugar kicked in, and made her hyper. "BANZAAAAAAAAI!" Her speed increased hundred fold and she seemed to be accelerating.

"Woah! You're fast!" and Yuudai started speeding up twice his normal speed, three times his normal speed, then the strength pill kicked in, and he sped up, very fast, and he saw Toshi. He kept speeding and he got equal with Toshi, and he was still gaining a little speed. "You're fast!" then he popped in another pill since his forst pill was wearing down, and he started gaining more speed.

Toshi giggled, and popped a sugar cube in her mouth. She was practically vibrating as she jerked and sped up again, laughing at no apparent reason.

By now, since they were going so fast, were close to finishing their third lap. Yuudai was going really fast, like Toshi's speed, because he just ate three strength pills at a time. He could see the finish, so he pushed himself to go faster.

Toshi saw a bunny near the finish line. "Awww!" She ran and stopped, squatting beside it as she pet it.

Yuudai passed into the finish and ran into a pool while looking at the bunny. "Ow!" he said as he rubbed where he hit his head.

Toshi brought the bunny over and both mammals looked dreamy. "Yuudai, look how cute he is!"

Yuudai scratched beneath the bunny's chin, "Yea, is very cute. Now you owe me a dare. How 'bout you have to do 50 pushups with a ten pound weight on your back?"

"How heavy is the pound?" Toshi asked nicely.

"How about you do fifty pushups, with that bunny bouncing on your back while you do it?"

"Bouncy bunny!" she said, grinning. The sugar was still in her system as she got down and started doing super-fast push ups with the rabbit holding onto her shirt for dear life.

When she was done at least one minute later Yuudai said, "No I owe you a dare. What is it?"

"Go around Konoha one round on your hands." The same dare she had given him before.

"Alright" he got on his hands, and about an hour later he was done. And he had sore hands, "Hey Toshi. Remember all the stuff we got into so long ago, it feels like."

"Mmhm! Now let's go to the top of Hokage's tower and eat something while we look at the Faces."

When they got to the top of the building with food and drinks Yuudai was thinking back to all the mess they got into. "I remember all of the junk we got into like it was yesterday. Like when I left to train, and the arguments that came with it when I came back. When I visited the angels and talked to them about my future. Good times, good times. And when you told me the crazy idea of going to be a slave for Aiden in kusagakure."
