What's Your Kryptonite?
A little look into the ninjas lives, and discovering what REALLY drives them nuts. Hey, it sounds like it could be a game show, doesn't it? Well, maybe later. Anyway, first off, we have the logical starting point, hero of the series, and the only ninja to ever wear bright orange, Naruto Uzumaki!

WARNINGS!! Shounen-ai, which is gay pairings, random insanity, and barely any reference to cannon. Love to evilsockofghana, who, in an extremely roundabout way, got me the idea for this. It is NOT ripping off her, just that's what the conversation started with. Oh yeah, also short chappies.
Naruto's Kryptonite
One morning, Naruto woke up a few hours earlier than usual. Sasuke was back in the village, and today was their first real mission! It was nice to have the whole squad 7 back again, and Naruto was sure this mission would be easy for their new and improved skills! He barely paused to grab some cup ramen as he zoomed out the door, running to the bridge at full speed. As usual, both Sakura and Sasuke had arrived before him, though Kakashi wasn't there yet. Utterly sick and tired of always having to wait for him, Naruto decided to skip saying 'good morning' to his friends, and sneak off to find Kakashi himself. Sakura and Sasuke watched the orange blur zip away through the village, and shared a sigh.
"That Naruto, he's so unreliable! I wonder what's gotten into his head this time!"
"Don't worry about it, Sakura, just be glad he's not bothering us. I hate it when he's this energetic."
Naruto was searching near one of the gates out of Konoha, when a man wearing a black coat with red clouds and a moustache walked up to him
"Uh... hello young man, would you like some ramen?" Naruto blinked, looking up at the man suspiciously.
"Why would you wanna give me ramen?" The man with the moustache looked around randomly.
"Uh... well, I'm... uh... I'm a travelling ramen seller! Yeah, that's right! And I would like to see what kind of ramen today's young ninja are eating!" Naruto blinked, then grinned.
"AWESOME! I'll help you, mister! Oh, by the way, your moustache just fell off." The man looked around.
"Ah crap. Not again. Did you see where it... ah!" He bent down, and picked up his swirly black moustache, sticking it back on his face. "Now, where were we... Ah yes, I was going to give you ramen. Well, follow me young man." Naruto watched him walk a few steps, then shrugged. He hadn't seen many people with moustaches, so maybe they fell off from time to time. He followed the man off down a dark alley, grinning to himself.
The man in the black coat seemed to have a lot of trouble with his moustache as he led Naruto along the back alleys of Konoha, but Naruto didn't find that suspicious. Moustaches were not ninja business, so he didn't really care about them. He was a little suspicious though; if the man was a travelling ramen seller, where did he keep his ramen? And would he be able to give Naruto special ramen, like ramen from the Land of Waves or something? Naruto, not being one to be shy, peppered the man with questions as they walked. The man answered about half of them, seeming a little side tracked, but Naruto didn't mind. As long as he got his ramen, it didn't really matter where it was from. When they arrived at a large square, Naruto noticed something, and giggled.
"Hey mister, did you know you look kinda old with those lines on your face? Like granny wrinkles!" The man twitched, then turned to glared at Naruto, his eyes displaying the sharingan as his moustache once again fell to the floor.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" Suddenly, Naruto realised who the man was, and he turned and ran through the village, screaming at the top of his lungs.
"SASUKESASUKESASUKESASUKE!" When Naruto found Sasuke, approximately thirty seconds later, he glomped onto him like a koala. "DON'T LEEEAVE MEEEEEEE!" Sasuke and Sakura exchanged looks, then Sasuke sighed.
"Naruto, I'll never know what the hell you're thinking, but I just got back. Why would I leave?" Naruto shook his head and refused to speak.
Because Itachi is Naruto's kryptonite.
I'll be posting every Saturday if at all possible, though if I get enough reviews, it may be sooner... because I luvs ya! Oh yeah, and if ANYONE has an idea for Hinata's kryptonite, that's the one I'm stuck on, so... SAVE MEEEE!! XD
