12th Taunt | Action

[misterbrief]

Hey! Get me out of here! What are you doing?!!!

[Are the words floating inside of your head. Something is yelling at you, but who knows where's it's coming from? Maybe it's from inside your cupboard. Or you're crushing it underneath your butt as you sit down on your couch, or you roll over on it when you turn in your bed.

Maybe it's been dropped into your pot of water that you're thinking about heating up soon for your dinner, and you are now threatening to boil it alive.

Or maybe something less dangerous, like in your pocket or backpack. Either way, it's found its way into your life somehow, and boy is that thing angry. Real angry. Upon inspection, or finding said thing, you'll find a frog. A mean, nasty, angry frog who's suffered from a shift occurring inside the village. Seems the only power he's retained is his telepathy, thankfully. Sort of. Depends if you want to hear the guy or not.]

Find a way to fix this immediately!

[Find him anywhere you want. Being a frog sucks, but the prince doesn't really have a choice in the matter. If you happen to be the kind of person who would kiss a frog, just like the children's tale, maybe he'll turn back into a prince.]

Action

[believeit]

[Naruto had been nosing around, looking for some ramen in the back shelves of one of the stores when he comes across something he did not expect.]

A frog?

[Curious, he reaches out to carefully grab it, holding it up in front of his face so he can get a proper look. Yup, that sure is a frog.]

Cool!!

[Since he cannot find his old pet Gamamaru, this will have to do! Hello little froggie, time to find yourself perched on Naruto's shoulder as he continues on his great ramen hunt.]

[misterbrief]

[How he found himself behind these boxes in the grocery store, he'll never know. It's dark and he can hear people shopping, hopping around the shelving trying to find a way out from behind all the products.

But then his savior arrives, moving it out of his way...!

Oh

noooooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Before he knows it, he's plucked from the shelf, being examined.]

Ribbit!

[He wasn't ready for that, and OH GOD DID HE JUST RIBBIT. As horrified as he is, he's now on Naruto's shoulder whether he likes it or not...and going for a ride. It's a long way down too....]

[believeit]

[He sure did just ribbit. Naruto is used to it though and seems to be ignoring whatever the little frog is doing, except for the fact that he's talking to it as he carries on his ramen raid.]

Dunno where they are...

Oi, you didn't see any ramen down there did ya?

Man... I swear they were here last time I was here... who moved them!

[misterbrief]

[Ramen? Ugh, he is not going searching for ramen! Not with this idiot! Just his luck.]

This store doesn't carry ramen anymore. [Says the voice in Naruto's head.]

[believeit]

WHAT?!

[There's a slight pause. He looks scared out of his wits, but why? Surely it's because he just heard a voice inside his head, right?]

What d'you mean they don't carry RAMEN ANYMORE?!

[Nah it was definitely because of that other thing.]

[Almost as an afterthought:]

Wait, who said that?

[misterbrief]

Me. [Floats the voice. With no explanation at all to where it's coming from.]

[believeit]

Who's 'me'?! I can't see anyone!! Say your name, stupid! [Soooo stupid!!]

[misterbrief]

[Instead of saying a word, the frog on Naruto's shoulder turns and sticks his little froggy sticky feet right on Naruto's cheek and stares with the coldest, rock hard stare a frog could ever muster.

It's him. It's the frog. The one that wishes he could kill this (what he considers) pathetic, sad excuse for a shinobi.]
