You and Shikamaru have been friends since childhood, basically inseparable. You loved to travel and see beautiful sights, while Shikamaru was lazy and tired, yet smart. You were sitting at home, reading a book while waiting for Shikamaru to come back from a mission that lasted 2 days ago. You missed him and you were really excited to see him again.

An hour later, Shikaku, Shikamaru's dad, contacted you and told you that Shikamaru was back, along with Naruto, Sasuke, Choji, Lee, Neji, Kiba, Shino, Gaara, Kankuro, Tenten, Temari, Ino, Hinata, and Sakura. You practically tossed your book back onto the shelf and changed into a black hoodie and white skirt with black shoes and rushed to the Hokage's office where Shikaku told you Shikamaru was when he got back from his mission.
