"Damn, these Kumo ninja have some weird stuff!" yelled Shikamaru as he ran around a stadium with cheering people all around.

"RRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAA!!" yelled the beast following him.

"Damn, damn, shit, shit!" he cursed as the beast was slightly faster than Shikamaru's teleportation jutsu. "I can't believe I'm all the way in Kumo, and everyone in Konaha thinks-" he was cut off as he had to dodge a giant claw rain down on him, but he managed to continue, "I'm in the Sound village, shit!" Again he cursed as another claw tried to slice his ass.

"This match is getting boring! Release another beast, and while you're at it release his techniques!" the Kumokage (I think that's what the kage of the Lightning village is called) bellowed, but his subordinates tried to reason with him.

"B-but, Kumokage-"

"I said do it!" A few loyal subordinates left to fulfill his request.

"Oh, FUCK!!" Again a claw tried to make fillet out of Shikamaru. "Wait a minute. I feel like I can use my jutsus- OH, MY GOD! ANOTHER ONE! Come on!" Like he said, another beast, identical to the other one, burst out a giant wooden door. The two monsters stopped in front of the lazy ninja, and fear struck his whole body.

"You have two minutes to think of a plan, Konaha scum!" the ruler of the village screamed to the lazy "ninja scum" as the Kumokage preferred it.

"Ok, two minutes, Shikamaru," Shikamaru whispered to himself. Suddenly, he made the hand sign that allows him to focus his mind on something.

"One minute left!" the ruler bellowed, standing up at how Shikamaru hadn't done anything amazing. At that moment, Shikamaru's eyes opened, a plan formulated. To fully comprehend his plan, I'm going to describe the beasts. As you probably figures out, they have claws, but no arms. Also, there weren't just two of them, each beast had four. As the monsters stood still, the claws slowly rotated around the monster they belonged to. Really, the torso of the beast/monster was just a big yellow ball with the village's symbol on the top, in the middle, and on the back. There were no legs but two small things that couldn't be seen unless they stopped spinning. In the middle of the rotating objects was electricity formed from friction of the objects on the ground. Now, the head was just plain weird. It made Shikamaru's skin crawl because it was Shikamaru's best friend, a cloud. A huge lightning cloud with lightning radiating from the bottom. The lazy ninja was going to murder these things for defiling the ancient name of the clouds. "Times up! Attack!" the ruler ordered, and the huge cloud defiling monsters loyally charged ahead, aiming at the lazy, but smart, ninja.

"RRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAA!!" roared the beasts again as they charged, but Shikamaru quickly reacted, teleporting behind them. Suddenly, the rotating objects that some how kept the weirdo cloud monsters up spun around, making a big circle because of friction. The electricity in the center of the objects got bigger, and they stopped in a split second, returning to their normal positions. But the hypnotizing objects that gave Shikamaru a head ache were the least of his worries since huge orbs of multi-colored electricity shot out of them, right when they returned.

"Exactly as I thought," he said jumping up about forty feet.

"Ha! You think jumping will help you! Ha! Those electricity orbs are like homing missiles!" bellowed the Kumokage, who was now a little interested in the talented ninja, who he earlier called scum. "What the?! Why won't they rise?!" He was right as the orbs just continued to go forward but disappeared when they reached the spot Shikamaru previously occupied. "HOW?!"

"He, ever here of lightning rods?!" Shikamaru yelled so the ruler could hear.

"WHAT?! Lightning rods?! Of course I do!"

"Good, then I don't have to explain how they work! That would be troublesome! Anyway, look where I was!" As Shikamaru ordered, the ruler looked at where the orbs of electricity were. There, standig tall and straight, was a metal pole. "I used that lamp post over there where those... things cornered me."

"NO WAY!" Behind the Kumokage, in a similar, but smaller, chair, sat a gorgeous girl around Shikamaru's age, seventeen. As Shikamaru told the way he used the lamp post, which really shouldn't have been placed in a place with giant light bulb monsters attacking, she looked really concerned and happy. She was concerned about Shikamaru's safety, but happy he was safe. "But how'd you get it without me or anyone seeing?!"

"Oh, well, it wasn't hard with a giant light bulb ten feet away!" Again Shikamaru continued to yell so the ego obsessed ruler could hear. "Now, shut up and watch!" Shikamaru instantly threw a kunai at the Kumokage, barely missing on purpose.

"ER!! DESTROY HIM!! GO FULL POWER!!" he screamed, making the beasts respond as such: their claws got electrical!

"Ooooooooooooh, shit!" Again Shikamaru cursed, replacing the girl's face with another concerned expression, but, suddenly, Shikamaru smiled. The girl's face was again replaced with a confused look. "Bye bye!" After Shikamaru said that, he disappeared into a cloud of smoke! Then after that, another Shikamaru popped out the ground! "Yo, everybody!"

"WHAT?!" Everyone was surprised, except Shikamaru of course.

"Time to finish this!" And with that Shikamaru preformed his trade mark jutsu. "Shadow Possession Jutsu!" His shadow stretched into hole he came out of, and, a second later, it came out a hole where the lamp post used to be, which was ten feet away from the monsters. "Gotcha!"

"NOOOOO WAAAAY!!" the Kumokage screamed, his face heating up in rage. The shadow stretched over five feet, then two, and then three. Shikamaru got the cloud defiling beasts! I told you he'd murder them.

"Bye bye! Shadow Cocoon Jutsu!" With that Shikamaru revealed one of his latest jutsus. (This technique is real, but might be translated wrong. No it didn't appear in the anime but on a game) While the shadow trapped the beasts, Shikamaru through flash bombs, two for each of the cloud defilers. Some smoke engulfed them, and Shikamaru said, "Time to end this!"

"NNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOO!!" After the ruler's yell of despair, Shikamaru's shadow came off the ground, wrapping around the weirdo electro things like a cocoon. After a good second, the shadows puffed out and exploded as the flash bombs went off. "NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!! All that was left was that piece of metal about to hit Shika- BAM! He was out cold.
