Gai awoke
from a nightmare in which he was being attacked by two enormous squished
raisins.
“Huh…?”
Standing
over him was the Fifth Hokage, clothed now, and looking as youthful and
beautiful as ever. “Feeling better,
Gai?”
He jumped
and pointed at her. “You, you… who are
you?!”
“You’re a
bit incoherent, Gai-san. Take a moment
to collect yourself.”
Gai stood
up and took a moment to think through what had happened. He had come home and found that someone had
broken in, he had caught the Hokage in his bedroom and she had tried to seduce
him. Then, he tried to dispel the
illusion, because she couldn’t possibly be real, but she turned into… shiver.
She
smiled at him, concealing her great irritation. “You really shouldn’t use high-level anti-genjutsu against me,
you know? It’s just bad for both of
us.” She was getting sober now, and
beginning to question the wisdom of this bet.
It was too late now, though. She
would just have to be smarter about it, and use her feminine wiles and
wisdom. “You won’t do that again, will
you?”
“No,
Godaime-sama.”
She patted
him. “That’s good.”
Gai looked
a bit uncomfortable. “Godaime-sama… why
are you acting this way? What has
gotten into you? Even in the very
warmest springtime of one’s youth, such actions are not—”
“Oh,
please. Gai, you sound like you have a
bit to learn about women.”
“…oh?”
“Look… I’m
sorry I tried to be so direct with you.
I thought someone as manly and strong as you would surely be excited at
the idea. I didn’t know you as well as
I thought.”
A bit of flattery seemed to have
worked somewhat. Gai calmed down. “It’s alright, Hokage-sama. You have been alone and an unhappy compulsive
gambler for many years. It is
understandable. I won’t tell anyone
about your not-so-youthful indiscretion.”
“Heh… thank you, Gai-san. But, me, alone? No. I had Shizune. That’s not what this is about.”
Gai made a fist. “Shizune… of course! Godaime-sama… I am sorry. You had been cut off and separate from your
home in the Leaf Village for so long, and now when you return, we are so busy
rebuilding and have so much work for you to do as Hokage that you are even more
alone now. Your sole companion has been
sent away on mission aftersionsion, leaving you in that empty office until you
went mad and tried to put the moves on the Proud Green Beast. Forgive us for neglecting your human needs
so. I promise that henceforth, we here
in Konoha will not only be your army and your people, but your companions as
well.” He flashed his ‘nice guy’ pose.
An awkward silence followed. What the heck is that pose?
Kurenai
spoke: “This is ridiculous. We’ve made enough of a mess already, it’s
time to give up!”
“Not a
chance in hell! I’ll win this bet
yet! I’m old, and wise in the ways of
men. I know the way to approach him
now.”
“Gai-san, I
am so deeply moved by your sentiment. I
know I can count on you!”
“Of course
you can! You know, Godaime-sama, the jounins generally go drinking on Friday
nights, like tonight. I wasn’t there
this time, but if you’re looking for non-professional companionship perhaps you
should join us.”
“Ah, good
idea... that would be nice. I have to
say, I don’t think it’s exactly what I’m looking for, though… Gai-san, like I
said: you really do have a lot to learn about women.”
“A lot to learn…”
he seemed put out again. “Well,
alright then, I can accept that! For
the sake of improving myself… if that is the case, then explain to me,
Godaime-sama. Tell me what it is I need
to know, to better serve you and all the women of Konoha!”
“You know, that’s very honest of
you. I respect you for that a lot…
Gai-san, you’re a very noble and chivalrous man and you’ve taught your student
to be the same way. But you’re making
one mistake.”
“What kind of mistake? Tell me, so that I can correct this flaw in
my otherwise perfect Nice-Guy attitude!”
She touched his cheek gently. “You try so hard, but hard work has to be
well guided. You put the female sex on
too high a pedestal, Gai.”
“A pedestal?”
“Yes. What I mean is that
sometimes, any person needs…” she whispered in his ear. “More than friendship.”
“Yes, of course… love is the most
beautiful thing in all of life! Except
perhaps for youth… especially youth in spandex.”
“No, Gai! That’s not what I mean.
Sometimes, any human being just needs to have a little fun, do you
understand? You act like that’s
something wrong, but it’s not. In fact,
the Nice Guy thing to do would be to help, right?” Technically, this was not a lie; she’d been quite some time
without a decent mate. But, would it
work?
Gai remained quiet, wondering what in the world to say to
that. Tsunade waited patiently, knowing
this was most likely the moment of truth in whether or not he would be open to
an attempt at seduction.
Gai looked in Tsunade’s eyes
seriously. He placed his hand on her
shoulder. “Tsuande-sama… I understand
this. I have a certain person who I
feel that way about, but cannot possibly be with because of our current
relationship… and a few other reasons.
I understand the feeling you speak of, and I apologize for presuming
that a woman could not suffer from it and acting as if you were chaste. But… I can’t be with you. Please understand! I am very sorry.”
No! “Gai, why not? We are both single, consenting adults.”
“But, Tsunade-sama…” he hung his
head. “I must admit that—”
Tsunade make a quick hand seal
behind her back and her sense link to Kurenai, Asuma, and Kakashi broke,
leaving them unable to hear the end of the sentence.
Asuma was disheartened. “It looks like you guys were right…
damn. And I was going to take my team
for a barbeque if we won.”
Kurenai was just angry. “She cut the link just as he was about to
admit it! Now she’ll probably try to
say he said something else and try to call it ambiguous, all bets off. She’s a compulsive gambler, right?”
Kakashi, however, could only think,
I really hope Gai’s ‘certain person’ is not me.
