Disclaimer; I do not own Naruto, only this story.
This is based on modern times, Naruto has been kicked out of school and is currently on his way with his god father to his new home and new school. So now without any further ado, we join the god father and knuckle head a day before he is due to start school.
The last day of summer holidays, the day that should have been used to enjoy the last moment's of freedom that kids had before the new school year started, before the homework began to overload their brains and before they had to worry about dodging the local school bully for another year. Yes, this was a day to celebrate something special; however, this wasn't the case for one certain blonde haired child, who was currently hanging out of the window of his god father's vehicle, the sour face a tribute to the current mood he was in, his ocean blue eye's looking down at the road that they were travelling on.
"This sucks" he groaned, not caring if he was spoken to as he was in what the adults and people that knew him well enough called; full sulking mode. The world was against him in every way whilst the boy was like this.
Sighing at the act that the child was putting up, the older male shook his head, "It's your own fault" he responded as he glanced to the satellite navigation system he had installed within the vehicle.
"They started it"
"I don't want to hear about it"
"But it was months ago!"
"That wasn't the first time though!"
"But it was the last!"
"It was also the worst! The pair of you were in the hospital for weeks!" the white haired adult roared, ending the argument and leaving the child opening and closing his mouth, trying to find some way of winning the argument, but the older of the pair had a valid point and it wasn't easy to come up with something out of thin air. Not something useful at that current situation anyway, ending his goldfish act, the sapphire eyed youth went back to looking outside the vehicle window.
Watching the lines on the road as they moved past them, the youth didn't turn around to look at his god father, even when the older man sighed to try and ease the tension that was between them because of the conversation. "Naruto" he spoke softly, still keeping his eyes on the road, "This will be the last time" he stated, making it a command of sorts for the blonde to stay out of trouble, after all, there weren't many schools that would accept a child like Naruto, especially with the track record he had.
"Yeah" Naruto weakly responded, his eyelids becoming heavier as the lines continued to pass by, "Wake me when we get there, Ero-sennin" he managed to say before sleep overtook him and his mind shut down. The driver looked over and shook his head, turning back to the road as he slowed to halt at a set of red lights, 'he has your looks Minato, but your personality is the one that shines through him, Kushina'.
Waiting until Naruto was asleep, the white haired male took hold of his phone's earpiece and inserted it into his right ear, glancing down with his eyes at his phone and scrolling through the numbers until he came upon the person he wished to call. Pressing the green call button and waited as the other end began ringing, as the call began to get longer, the blonde's guardian looked to the digital clock situated in between the two sides of the dashboard in the vehicle, 'Must still be off' he thought as his fingers began to move to cut the call off, stopping just an inch away when someone on the other end picked up.
"Konoha High School, Principal's office"
"Hello, can I speak to Principal Sarutobi please"
"Who may I ask is calling?"
"This is Jiraiya, can you inform him it's of the new student arriving tomorrow"
"Yes, one moment please" and with that, the female voice was replaced with soft murmurs, 'sounds like someone else is there, but I thought they said the place didn't start until tomorrow?' the guardian thought as he took the next turn a little slower due to the sleeping child next to him.
Five minutes later, a man's voice came over the phone "Hello Jiraiya, and how are you today" the white haired male's old sensei asked to begin with, "I'm fine thank you sir, has school started today? I thought I heard kid's a moment ago"
"Oh no, this week has just been the introduction week, nothing but some activities to get the kid's to know each other"
"So nothing that he would need to catch up on"
"No, not at all, he will still start first thing tomorrow"
"Thank you sir, oh and the reason I called; you might want to prepare the place"
"Why is that?"
"He's nothing like his father except for looks" Jiraiya explained as he glanced to the child who was sleeping against the door frame of the vehicle, "He has his mother's attitude, but worse, I hope you're ready for this" Naruto's godfather said before turning onto a driveway that still had a for sale sign pinned up, with the word sold written across it in bold red letters.
"I'm sure the teacher's and myself will be fine when it comes to Minato's child"
"I hope you're right sensei, anyway, we have arrived at our new home, I'll send him straight to your office first thing in the morning" Jiraiya stated as he cut the engine of the car, "Although you might as well expect him sometime after lunch"
"I'll keep that in mind, pop in sometime"
"I will do sir, goodbye for now" With that last statement, both men hung up the phone on either end. Reaching for the handle to the door, Jiraiya looked to his right and smiled at the sleeping form of the boy he was guardian for, about to wake him up, the older male stopped as he wondered how often this would happen. Naruto was slumped against the door, his thumb just out of reach from his mouth, with it wide open and saliva dribbling out of the corner closest to the door; blackmail material right there, and he didn't have to lift a finger, save for the one's that were currently operating the camera he had snatched from the side compartment of his door.
Flashing in the direction of the blonde, Naruto began to stir from his slumber as his godfather quickly put the device away, after all, it was a constant competition between each of them to one up the other, and right now, Jiraiya intended to keep his current lead for a lot longer than two days this time.
"Wake up lazy butt!" the older male shouted, slightly startling the younger of the pair, Naruto looked at his godfather, mentally shouting to the man that he would get him back for that. "We're here" he stated before closing the door and moving to the boot of the car, taking out a pair of large hold all bags and moving to the front door of their new home.
The place didn't look like anything special, just a regular house in the middle of another two houses, although the town wasn't encased by a small desert, making it slightly cooler than the last place they lived. Performing the same action as Jiraiya, Naruto walked to the back of the vehicle, taking hold of his own hold all but grabbing a backpack and swinging it around so it rode up his arm and seated itself onto his back.
"Tough break kid, you've got the smaller room" Jiraiya shouted out as he came back to lock the car before heading back into the house, Naruto shrugged before heading into the hallway that had access to the living room, kitchen, back room that led into the garden and a small dining room that was connected to both the kitchen and the living room. Walking upstairs, Naruto looked down the corridor and noticed one room with an open door, guessing that was to be his room, he headed inside and smiled to himself, "Fine by me old man" he stated as he noticed the room contained, a stack of shelves for his comics, a desk where he could set up his laptop and gaming area, and above all, the TV was ready and waiting for him, with a perfect view from his bed.
Dropping his hold all to the floor, he walked over to the bed and dove onto the mattress with every ounce of childishness he had, after all, if he couldn't get comfy on the damn thing, then he would need to have a new one available to himself. Thirty minutes later, the blonde decided that the bed was comfy enough for him to sleep on. Jumping from the mattress and beginning the long process of unpacking, the teen didn't realise that he and Jiraiya had attracted the attention of some of the kid's that were walking from school back to their houses.
"Great, here come's the fun part. Wonder how long this one will be for?"
"Naruto, we're drawing up a crowd already!" Jiraiya shouted into the house before going back outside to obtain more of the items that they had left behind briefly. "Great, already I'm branded the new guy" Naruto stated to himself before carrying on with the task at hand.
Setting up his Ipod station first, the blonde plugged the speaker system in and took out his mp3 from his pocket, searching through it to find a song that he heard a thousand times over but still loved no matter what, finding it he smiled and placed the device on the docking station, allowing the music to fill the room and reach the ears of those outside.
Jiraiya picked up a box that held the majority of his writing materials, only to stop for a moment when he heard Lie To Me by 12 Stones blazing through the open window's of the room Naruto had been forced to take. Shaking his head for a moment before glancing over his shoulder, he noticed that the group of girls who had been walking past had stopped to look to the house before carrying on, 'Thing's are going to start getting a bit more hectic around here for everyone' he thought with a grin on his face before moving back into the house and carrying on the long process of moving into a new house.
And with that, we end the first chapter. Sadly, I ain't started the next one yet and for those that are still waiting for a new chapter for Telling Her, sorry to disappoint but hit a major road block with it, it was only designed to be a one off but thought I'd give it a try for a few more chapters, for it to carry on I'll either; have to redo the chapters, or hand it to someone else. This one however, I'm pretty sure I can keep it going, although don't expect any updates for less than a month to two months, after all I'm a soldier and work is hectic at best.
If you have questions about the chapter then send them in a review or a private message and they shall be answered at the start of the second chapter, depending on what the answers will be.
So until next time, hope you enjoy the chapter and the start of the new story, Yours truly
G-L
