Chapter: Cinderella

Cinderella

Kurenai, Gai and Asuma were back with their classes. They got in touch with Tsunade right away. "It's nice that you are back. The other fairy tale was unfortunately not that good without you.", Said Tsunade. That was true. Without the jealous Ino, the beetle-obsessed Shino, the always bored Shikamaru and the others, it wasn't that funny. "I'm glad to hear that," replied Gai. "I already have the next fairy tale for you." Tsunade grinned. She was already holding the list. She gave it to Kurenai.

The students in the audience were already seated. They had heard that it should be funnier again today. But for the students backstage, who were about to be on stage, it didn't start out that funny. At least for a couple. "Sakura! I'm really sorry!" Pleaded the Uchiha. "Okay.", Sakura finally admitted defeat. "Really?" He asked again. "Yes. Because I don't care about you now. I don't love you anymore.", She lied. But for the black-haired man the world came to an end. "So! We're starting!", Kakashi shouted.

//Performance//

<<Cinderella>>

Once upon a time there was a girl. It lived with its stepmother and step-sisters. She had to work for the three of them day in and day out. She had to do laundry, ironing, cooking, and everything else for the house.

Temari: * I'm mean! I am mean! So talk nasty too! * Ey! Cinderella, do my laundry for me. You are really useless for anything!
Tenten: * Why should I be bad again? * Cinderella!!! Cinderella!!! I'm hungry!!!
Anko: * Yeah! Pushing little girls around is fun! * Cinderella!!! You should bathe the cat !!!
Ino: * What else should I do? Why am I Cinderella? That's stupid! I am too beautiful to work. * I'm coming!!!

And so she did as she was told. Fortunately she had her friends, the mice. She could talk to them and they helped her with her work.
Kiba: * If I thought like Akamaru, I would hunt myself. * Oh, poor Cinderella.
Shikamaru: * What's the theater? Mice can't talk to people! That will not do! This is against nature! I think I just sleep.* Yes, poor girl. `fall asleep´
Choji: * If we help, is there something to eat? * I will help you Cinderella !!!
Kankuro: Me too! * Sakura doesn't care about Sasuke, that means I have a better chance of ending up with her! Yay! *
Ino: That's nice of you. You cook and you do the laundry. * That's really great. Then I just have to wash the cat. *

It went on like this all day. But one day an invitation from the king came to the ball.

Anko: * Who wants to dance? * Look, girl, look! The king invites to the ball so that his son can finally find a suitable bride. Everyone is invited.
Ino: * Sasuke !!! * So am I invited too?
Temari: * Be mean! * Yes, of course! As if the prince were marrying a cleaning girl.
Tenten: * I'm still not happy with my role. * Yes exactly! Nobody wants you Not even a farmer!
Anko: Well, girl! Of course you are invited. But before you can go you have to wash all the curtains, take out the trash, clean the floor and don't forget the windows. You will also need a dress.
Ino: No problem! I'll make it so I can dance with Sasuke.
Tenten: Who is Sasuke, please? * It just can't play a fairy tale without errors. *
Ino: Well, the prince !!!
Temari: You don't really believe that he would dance with someone like you.
Ino: That's what the script says.
Anko: Cinderella? Have you learned nothing again?
Ino: Learned what?
Anko: Your text, for example.
Ino: Not right.
Anko: You can tell.
Ino: Really?
Tenten: Enough! We should play a fairy tale here and not chat about who can do his text better! *I want to go home.*

[Change of background ---> Cinderella's room]

Cinderella ran into her room and told the mice about the ball and the tasks.

Choji: If there's something to eat for it, I'll help you.
Kankuro: I'll help you if I can open the lock!
Kiba: I'm helping you because I haven't got anything better to do anyway.
Shikamaru: If you leave me alone, I could think about it.
Ino: You are really good friends !!!

So they got to work. The fat mouse and the mouse that wanted to open the lock clean the windows and the curtains. The mouse who wanted their peace and quiet and the one who was normal made a new dress for Cinderella and Cinderella herself did the rest. In the evening the time had come.

[Background change ---> corridor]

The stepmother was waiting in the hallway for her daughters and Cinderella. Her daughters came down. Despite the beautiful clothes, they were not exactly beautiful.

Tenten: * WHAT ?! * Does that mean I'm ugly? !!!

Thats not what I meant. I meant your role.

Tenten: Yes, yes !!! You just want to talk your way out!

No! No, I really don't want to! Um well where was I?

Tenten: Where you say I'm ugly!

Stop it. That is not meant personally at all.

Tenten: How else?Well, that Cinderella's stepsisters are ugly. So just the role you play.

Tenten: Yes, no, that's clear!

So. The stepsisters weren't particularly beautiful despite the dresses. But then Cinderella came right away. She was wearing a beautiful dress. She just looked gorgeous. The other two girls didn't like that, of course. They made excuses like, 'This is my chain! ´ or `This is my cloth! ´ and tore the dress. Now the mother and her daughters drove to the castle without Cinderella.

[Background change ---> garden]

Cinderella ran into the garden and cried. The mice also came into the garden.

Kankuro: How do we get to the castle now?
Choji: Poor, Cinderella. Can you at least cook something for me while we're here?
Ino: * That fat man! * Cook yourself something! I just wanna die !!! Damn it!!! That was my chance to dance with Sasuke once and now? !!! Now it is no longer possible!
Shikamaru: ~ You can see that she doesn't know the piece. ~
Ino: Just because it's a fairy tale doesn't mean miracles!

At that very moment the fairy godmother came.

Hinata: Hello, Cinderella. I am the fairy godmother and I will make a wish come true.
Ino: Then I would like a huge chocolate! So that I can feed away my frustration!
Shikamaru: Just wish you could go to the castle and have a nice dress. At least that way you won't get fatter.
Ino: Does that mean I'm FAT? !!!
Shikamaru: No. Thats not what I meant.
Ino: Then what?
Shikamaru: Well, that would be better. So you can still dance with the prince.
Ino: Which prince?
Shikamaru: Sasuke.
Ino: Right. Good fairy, I want a nice dress and a carriage so I can go to the ball.
Hinata: Your wish is my command. Bibbildi Babbildi Bush!

The fairy waved her wand and a pumpkin became a carriage. The four mice became three white horses and a coachman. Cinderella suddenly had a beautiful blue dress and glass shoes.

Ino: I look good! Come on!
Hinata: Wait. At midnight the magic is over and everything will be as it was. Except the shoes.
Ino: Yes, of course!

Cinderella got into the carriage and drove off. She drove very, very quickly.

[Background change ---> in the castle]

They were there in a few minutes. Cinderella entered the castle. Everyone danced there.

Kurenai: It's just nice to dance with you. `snuggles up to him´
Asuma: That's nice.
Sakura: * Why did I just say that? Why why why? *
Neji: ~ Sakura! Please concentrate! You step on my feet all the time. ~
Sakura: ~ Oh! I'm sorry Neji. ~
Neji: ~ No problem. ~

Then Cinderella came into the hall. A servant came to her.

Shino: * Wow! That way it looks even more beautiful! * Can I offer you a drink? `drool´
Ino: No thanks. I am looking for the prince.
Gaara: Right up there.Strangely enough, you know him at the Krone.
Ino: Thank you! `Gaara gives a kiss on the cheek´
Gaara: `turns red´

Then the prince noticed the beautiful girl too. He went to her and asked for a dance.

Sasuke: May I ask for this dance?
Ino: Yes !!!
Sasuke: * I have to make Sakura jealous! Then I'll see how indifferent I am to her. *

Then they both started dancing. But who would have thought that. Cinderella …

Sasuke: Whoa eh !!! You kick my feet all the time !!! Can not you pay attention?!!! *That hurts! *
Ino: What? I am sorry...

[Change of background ---> in front of the castle]

Then she ran out of the hall. She cried. It was five minutes to midnight. She ran past the guards. Then down the great stairs. There she lost a shoe. But she didn't care. She ran on and on. Then she got into her carriage and drove home. The prince ran after her.

Sasuke: * Damn it! How am I supposed to make Sakura jealous now? * Where is she?
Sai: You mean the beautiful, simply dreamy lady who just came out of the castle?
Sasuke: You have to mess around again, don't you?
Sai: I just like them.
Sasuke: Where is she?
Naruto: Down there. She almost broke her neck when she fell off. But she kept walking. She just lost her shoe.
Sasuke: I didn't want to know your life story.
Naruto: Oh! You want to know their life story. So she was 5 when her mother died and her father married a new, nasty, devious woman who had two daughters. A few years later, when she must have been around 13, her father died too. From
