Naruto Primer The Brain Challenge

Brain
�Don�t worry, Shikamaru, this event doesn�t require much work.� Whispered Asuma to only Shikamaru. �But I REQUIRE that you do well in this event because I have just been bragging to the guys that you�re a chuunin and you kind of killed me in the last event and they�re giving me crap about it��
�Okay, we�re going to start the event!� said Kurenai. �This one tests how well you know your teammates!�
There was a collective groan right then and there.
�We will go to each group and ask a question that is about one of your teammates.� Kurenai explained. �The one who it�s about is, obviously, not allowed to answer. Each team will get three questions, one about each member of the team. Who ever gets the most questions right wins! If the first place team is tied, we�ll do a tiebreaker!�
�Can I explain the next event?� asked Asuma.
�Sure, I was just doing it because I didn�t think you guys wanted to.� Kurenai replied.
�Just to make sure there�s no favoritism, we�re having the teachers ask the questions to a team other than their own.� Said Kakashi to the genins. And Shikamaru.
�Let�s get things rolling!� said Gai.
�Okay, Team Kakashi,� said Asuma, turning to Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura. �Your first question is about Sasuke.�
�Yay!� cheered Sakura. �I know EVERYTHING about Sasuke!!�
�All right, here�s the question�when is Sasuke�s birthday?� Gai asked.
�I don�t know�April?� said Naruto with a shrug.
�NO, you idiot!!� Sakura yelled, hitting him on the head. �That wasn�t our answer. It�s July 23rd.�
�CORRECT!!� Gai cheered as he pulled a rope and streamers and confetti dropped down on the happy team.
�That question was WAY too easy.� Said Kurenai. �You have to make them harder and more personal.�
�I thought it was perfectly fair.� Said Kakashi with a shrug. �I don�t know when Sasuke�s birthday is and I�m his teacher. But I�ll ask the next question to this Chouji, Shikamaru and Ino team.�
He turned to that team he just mentioned.
�All right, this one is about Shikamaru.� Said Kakashi. �What sort of fruit does Shikamaru�s head most resemble?�
�Well, I�ve never seen a more pineappley shaped head before.� Said Ino with a shrug. �I think we should go with that��
�No!� said Chouji. �Wait. He said Shikamaru�s head. His hair is NOT his head! He was trying to trick us. Therefore, his head is more�cantaloupe shaped.�
�Is that your final answer?� asked Kakashi.
�A cantaloupe?� said Shikamaru with a �this is so troublesome� expression.
�That�s correct.� Said Kakashi. �I�m very impressed. You were able to look underneath the underneath. I also would have accepted watermelon, melon, orange�pretty much anything that was round and NOT a pineapple.�
�That question was open entirely for opinion!� argued Gai. �I don�t think that should count.�
�It was FINE!� said Asuma. �It�s my turn anyway. I�ll ask this Shino, Kiba and Hinata group.� He cleared his throat. �This one is about Shino.�
�Just go on to the next group.� Said Kiba. �We don�t know anything about Shino at all.�
�It�s true.� Said Hinata sadly.
�Good!� said Asuma because he wanted his team to win!
�Way to just give up.� Said Kurenai, shaking her head.
�I understand.� Said Shino. �I never tell them anything. I�m more anti-social than Sasuke.�
�No, I am.� Said Sasuke as he tried to be even more anti-social. Sasuke knew he was better than Shino. Even at something so ludicrous of who was more anti-social.
�But anyway, it�s my turn to ask the last group!� Kurenai announced. �That would be you three.� She pointed at Neji, Tenten and Lee. �It�s about Tenten. At what age did Tenten go through her first menstrual cycle?�
�Oh geez!� said Neji and Lee at the same time as they backed away as if they were vampires exposed to the light.
�Don�t you think that�s a little personal?!� Tenten said angrily. �Do you really think I would share something like that with the males on my team?!�
�You should tell your teammates EVERYTHING about yourself!� Kurenai announced. �So can I assume that you two don�t know when Tenten had her first period?�
�Oh, no way!!� yelled Neji and Lee as their faces turned red and they continued cowering.
�That is too hard of a question!� said Gai. �I doubt even Tenten knows the answer to that one!�
�Oh stop complaining and continue the competition.� Kurenai said. She was probably just bitter because if that team had answered the question correctly then her team would be the only one that got a question wrong.
�So far, Team Kakashi and Team Asuma have a question right and the other two teams�well, don�t.� said Gai. �Ready for the next question? It�s about Sakura. When�when is Sakura�s birthday?!�
��April?� said Sasuke.
�No!!� yelled Naruto. �It�s March 28th!!�
�RIGHT!!!� Gai cheered as he pulled another rope and more streamers and confetti dropped down from the sky.
�I thought I told you to make them harder!� said Kurenai.
�I forgot.� Said Gai.
�Okay, Team Asuma.� Said Kakashi. �This one is about Chouji. Say you�re in Chouji�s kitchen. You talk to four people and then you walk in the other room and talk to six more people. Afterwards, you go downstairs and talk to four more people. Then, finally, you talk to eight more people. How many people have you spoken to?�
�That�s not about Chouji at all!� said Gai. �They don�t even have to know him to know the answer!!�
�Well�� Ino said, counting on her fingers. �If I added everything up correctly��
�Hang on.� Said Shikamaru. �There�s a problem with the story.�
�A problem?� Kakashi said mysteriously.
�Yes.� Shikamaru replied. �It started out normally, in Chouji�s kitchen. He speaks to four people and then walks into the other room and then speaks to six more people. It all makes sense then.�
�Obviously!� said Ino. �Let�s just answer the question!�
�Wait,� Shikamaru said. �Then, when we are supposed to go downstairs, there�s one problem. We are already downstairs. Once on the floor with the kitchen, you can�t go down any further in Chouji�s house. That�s why the twelve people that we could have potentially spoken don�t even exist because they�re on some sort of weird floor in some other dimension that�s not real. So the answer is really only ten.�
Everyone stood in silence for a moment.
�Very good.� Said Kakashi.
�Wow, I didn�t even catch that.� Said Chouji.
�Well, at least you caught the pineapple thing.� Shikamaru said.
�I bet you caught it too.� Chouji said.
�Naturally.� Shikamaru replied. �It was obvious.�
�Now I feel stupid�� Ino whined.
�Nice job, Shikamaru.� Said Asuma, wiping a tear from his eye.
�Look underneath the underneath.� Said Kakashi randomly.
�ANYWAY!!� said Asuma. �As for you three�this one is about Kiba. When did Kiba get Akamaru?�
Akamaru barked. �No, Akamaru, we�re not allowed to answer.� Said Kiba to Akamaru.
�I have no idea.� Said Shino.
�Oh, I do!� said Hinata. �He�s had Akamaru ever since he was born! They�ve been together forever!�
�Actually, no.� said Asuma, pretending to look sad. �That is incorrect.�
�Does Akamaru look like he�s twelve?� said Kiba, kind of annoyed.
�Oh, I was SO sure!� said Hinata.
�Well, considering those two teams have already gotten two questions right, there�s no point in this team staying in the competition.� Kakashi said.
�Aw man.� Said Team Kurenai.
�I guess that�s good because I couldn�t think of a question for Hinata.� Asuma confessed. �I was gonna say�oh wait, never mind. I wasn�t going to say anything. I couldn�t think of a question.�
�So if Team Gai gets this next question wrong then they�re eliminated.� Said Kurenai. Everyone could tell that she was bitter that her team got eliminated first. ESPECIALLY Team Gai. �Your question is about Neji. Where is the location of Neji�s horrible birthmark?�
�Why do you know that?� Neji questioned.
�Uh�his ass?� tried Lee.
�Under his armpit?� suggested Tenten.
�Why are you guys only saying embarrassing things?� Neji said. �Whose to say it�s not on my back or something?�
But then he paused. �Wait a second, I don�t HAVE a birthmark!� he said.
�Too bad, they�ve already answered!� said Kurenai. �And, since you�ve gotten both questions wrong, you�re eliminated!!�
�That was unfair!� said Gai.
�They were supposed to look underneath the underneath.� Said Kakashi. �By saying that he DIDN�T have a birthmark.�
�Uh�yeah, that�s why I meant!� said Kurenai even though you could tell that it actually wasn�t.
�Remember to make it harder, Gai.� Said Asuma since it was a race between his team and Team Kakashi and if Gai asked the team when Naruto�s birthday was�oh, there would be blood. Besides, Kakashi could ask some sort of HORRIBLE impossible question just so that his team would be able to win.
�I know, I know!� said Gai with a laugh. �All right, team! When� is Naruto�s� HALF birthday?!�
Asuma slapped his forehead.
�I don�t even know when Naruto�s real birthday is�� said Sakura.
�Come on guys!� said Naruto.
Sakura and Sasuke looked at each other and then back at Gai. �Uh� April?� they said at the same time.
�WRONG!!!� yelled Gai. But then he looked at the remaining confetti ball and decided to pull it anyway.
�They haven�t lost yet.� Said Kakashi. �If this team answers my question wrong then we�ll have to do a tiebreaker question.�
�I think that someone else should ask the question because I don�t think it�s very fair!� said Asuma.
�Oh, be quiet.� Said Kakashi. �Ready Team Asuma? This is for the win. And it�s about Ino. There are two doors. One has a throng of warriors behind it. The other has many very hungry Corythosaurus. If someone was forcing Ino to go through one of the two doors, which one would she most likely choose?�
�I don�t think I even know�� said Ino slowly.
�I have no idea�� said Chouji. They both looked at Shikamaru. �We have a 50/50 chance, Shikamaru. Which one do YOU think?�
�Ha.� Said Shikamaru, crossing his arms and looking all cocky. �I was expecting a difficult question. If Ino had to choose one door, it would have to be the Corythosaurus.�
�That�s correct.� Said Kakashi.
�WHAT?!� yelled everyone else.
�Care to explain?� Kakashi asked.
�It�s troublesome, by why not?� Shikamaru said. �There�s no way Ino would be able to defeat the throng of warriors. NO ONE can defeat a throng of warriors. Now, a few hungry beasts, perhaps. Whose to say they�d even attack her? But I didn�t draw my conclusion from that. Any cognitive person would know that a Corythosaurus is a plant-eating dinosaur so, while they maybe be very hungry, it is very doubtful that they would choose to pursue her. Not to mention the fact that dinosaurs are extinct so, once again, unless this is a door to some other dimension, the dinosaurs aren�t even there so she�d just be walking into an empty room.�
�TEAM ASUMA WINS!!!� Gai yelled, pulling down the largest of all the confetti balls.
�Nice job, Shikamaru, you have redeemed yourself.� Said Asuma.
