Just something I had in my mind for a while. Of course, I came up with the idea a month or so ago, so like Visiting Ikebukuro the chapters will probably be short. Also, I may have rushed through this chapter.

I own nothing.


Rude Awakening

"Ack! What the hell?"

Gilbert took a deep breath as he sat up from where he was 'sleeping'.

"How the hell did I end up in the fountain?"

"That's what we would like to know."

Gilbert stopped what he was doing to look at the person who spoke. He was met with green eyes and…pink hair?

"Nice hair…"


"Awww, West~! Why can't I go?"

"You know full well why, Bruder."

Gilbert pouted. West was so mean! All Gilbert wanted to do was go to a concert with Francis and Antonio. Hell, Antonio was even bringing Lovino along! The foul-mouthed Italian could keep the three in check easy (he took lessons from a reliable source…yet he's still afraid of Arthur). Gilbird even chirped in protest at Ludwig's 'cruelty'.

"My answer is final, Bruder. That goes for you as well, Gilbird."

The little yellow chick puffed out his body as if offended. Gilbert chuckled at the similarity between himself and his flying companion. Ludwig just shook his head before turning to walk away. Of course, when he turned, Feliciano was in front of him.

"Does that mean I can't go to the concert either~?"

Ten minutes later…

"…This is so not awesome," was all the albino man could say as he laid on his younger brother's couch. Gilbird had already fallen asleep after eating his food five minutes earlier, leaving Gilbert to wonder by himself, bored out of his mind. He looked at Gilbird before deciding that he might as well take a nap himself. It took him ten seconds to fall deeply into sleep.


"Was it necessary to hit me?"

"Yes. Yes, it was."

Damn woman.

One of the kids behind the pink-haired woman took a step toward Gilbert. "Are you a spy?" the kid asked. Gilbert raised an eyebrow.

"Is that why she hit me? No, I'm not a spy. In fact, I have no intentions on doing any spy work. Those days are over and done with. Now, do you know where I am?"

"You don't know?"

"I wouldn't ask if I did."

"This is Konoha, the Hidden Leaf Village."

"…Doesn't ring a bell."

"You don't know about our village?"

"That's unacceptable!"

"Believe me, I know nothing about this place, nor how I got here," Gilbert explained. The kids seemed really offended that he didn't know about their home. Just then, some guys in mask appeared in front of him. "Oh crap!"

"Is this the invader?" one of the masked men asked the pink-haired girl. Said girl nodded. The masked man then looked at the others before nodding himself. The others that came with him advanced towards Gilbert. Before Gilbert could protest, or ask what was going on, the kids that were talking to him shielded him from the masked men.

"What are you kids doing?" the pink-haired girl asked sternly. All but one of the kids cringed at the tone. But the leader of them stood his ground.

"He's not an invader! He's our friend! He's just lost and confused is all! How would you feel if you woke up in an unknown place, nearly drowning in a water fountain, huh?"

The masked men thought about that. "…Awoke in the water fountain you say? Is that true, Sakura?"

Sakura shrugged. "I just heard the kids screaming. By the time I got here, this man was coughing up water. I just thought that maybe he was trying to jump to the other side or something and fell in," she explained.

"I see. Well, I guess it is fine. But he will have to see the Hokage since he's not from here…"

"We'll go with him!" the leader piped up. All the other kids agreed to that. The masked man sighed, but agreed. Though, Sakura has to tag along.

Thus begins Gilbert's adventure in the land of ninja.


Like I said, I may have rushed through it. Like always, negative comments will be ignored but corrections are welcomed.

...Thinking about it, I want to make the kids in here part of the main characters. I just need names.
