Naruto's POV I was sitting at my desk doing paperwork for the up coming Chuunin Exams.
Damn, so much paperwork for the Hokage.
My son, Akira, was going to be in them this year. His Sensei made him and his team wait another year to take it. I just hope that he doesn't have to go through what i went through. Hinata said the same thing.
Yes, Hinata. We've been married for 14 years now. When she was fighting Pein, I realized how much she cared about me, and how much I care about her. When I asked her to marry me, Hiashi didn't want her to because Kyuubi was inside me. Hinata stood up to her father who was surprised. He only agreed that I can marry Hinata, if our child become the next heir of the Hyuga clan. I had to agree so I can marry my love.
Anyways, Akira has Hinata's features. He has my blonde hair and Hinata's lavender eyes. He was shy like Hinata,too. A little scared of facing new things. He had hair that came down to his ears. He didn't have my whisker marks, though.
Then, I heard a knock on the door.
"Come in," I said.
In came Kakashi Sensei and my three year old daughter, Atsuko. He was holding her by her shirt and she was squirming to get out of his hold. I sighed.
What did she do this time?
"I caught her doing one of her pranks again," Kakashi spoke.
"Hey! You're suppose to be my god father and this is how I'm treated?!," screamed Atsuko.
Why is she screaming? Wonder who she got it from.
"What type of prank," I ask. That results to Atsuko yelling even louder!
"Nothing! I wa...," she started, but I cut her off with a stern look.
"She put bugs in people's ramen at Ichiraku," Kakashi said. "Ichiraku is losing a lot of costumers."
"Atsuko?," I asked looking at her.
"Yes,Otou-san?," she asked innocently.
She's playing her triumpth card,huh? Not going to work. At least I hope not.
"How did you get away from Okaa-san?," I asked curiously.
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu," she replied simply.
Why did I teach her that jutsu?
"Thank you, Kakashi, you can leave," I said to Kakashi.
He put Atsuko down carefully.
"Say bye,Atsuko," I told her.
"Bye,Kakashi!," she replied.
When he left, I gave Atsuko a stern look, again.
She too had Hinata's looks, but more of my looks and my personality.
Atsuko has the same type of hair as the fourth Hokage. Weird. She has Hinata's lavender eye color. She was far from shy. She has the whisker marks,too. She was outgoing and was the same jokester I was. She was small for her age. Not only that, but she was very slim. The worst part is, she has the Kyuubi power,too. No one outside my family knows, but the village elders. I hope to keep it that way. We don't know how, but it just happened. Akira didn't get infected.
I had to teach her how to control her chakra. She still learning. She has high uncontrolable chakra. The Kyuubi's power tried to escape so many times. We had to help her get it under control.
I looked down at her and smiled. She smiled back. I seemed like I was almost looking at myself.
Atsuko's POV I was laying down on my bed in my room. I was bored out of my mind!
"I'm so bored," I groaned out.
Then, Okaa-san walked in.
"Are you okay,sweety," she asked sweetly.
Okaa-san was always nice. She never yells, even when we do get in trouble. She just tells us not to do it again. But for me, I always do it again.
"I'm bored," I whined.
She chuckled.
"Why don't you practice chakra control?," she asked.
"I already did today. Plus, I'm not even good at it. Why do I have to worry about it? I'm not even in the academy, yet. Akira didn't," I replied.
"Your special than him," she smiled.
"Is that bad?"
"Not at all."
"How am I 'special' from him?"
"You have higher chakra than him."
"Is that good?"
"Very. Once you learn how to control it, you will be a powerful shinobi.
"Okaa-san?"
"Yes?"
"Did Otou-san have trouble,too?"
"Actually he did. He didn't know until he got to the academy. It was hard for him, so that's why we're making you do it now."
I sighed and turned over on my side, not facing her. She placed a comforting hand on my side.
"It'll be okay, I promise."
I smiled.
"Thanks, Okaa-san. I think I might go practice now.
I slipped on my blue sandals and hugged her. I went outside and sat under the tree in the front yard. Not concentrating, I decide to go play.
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!"
I made one clone and ordered it to work on chakra control.
I jump over our fence and headed for the village. On the way, I dug up worms and caught beetles. I went to Ichiraku and started to talk to him.
"Hey, old man, someone wants to talk to you out there."
"Hmm,really? Okay."
I quickly went behind the counter and dropped the bugs in the already cooking miso ramen. I jumped back over the counter before he returned.
"Hey, there was nobody out there!," he yelled.
"That's weird. Maybe they left since I left," I replied totally cooled.
Someone walked in, and I hid behind the curtain outside. I didn't see exactly who it was, but it looked like my god father, Kakashi.
I heard them order the miso and I snickered. They turned around and I quickly shuted up.
Then...
"Um, this has a beetle in it," said the man.
"What?!," Ichiraku screamed.
I couldn't help but laugh. I fell over holding my side. I started to cry.
"Got ya!," I screamed.
I looked up to see that it really was my god father. I stood up and my eyes widened.
"Hi-Hi, Kakashi," I stuttered.
"Atsuko, you did this?," he asked.
"Yes," I whispered.
"Why?!," yelled the owner.
"I was bored," I mumbled.
"I suppose you don't want me to your Otou-san about this," Kakashi assumed correctly.
"Please don't! I'll get in trouble," I begged.
" You should've thought about that before you tried to poison me."
"I didn't know it was you." I protested.
"Let's go."
I turned in the other direction, but Kakashi lifted me up by my shirt.
"No! Don't take me to Otou-san! Take me home. Otou-san is working."
"Think next time."
"I will just don't take me to Otou-san!"
"I am"
I started to fake cry.
"Stop fake crying."
I immediately stop.
Dang, he's good.
When we got there, I started squirming. I heard Otou-san's voice. He sounded in a good mode. Otou-san and Kakashi talked. Then, Kakashi left. I said bye. I walked in front of his chair.
I like to brag to everyone saying my Otou-san is the Hokage! That means he's the most powerful ninja in Konoha! That's really good! Okaa-san tells me I'm just like him. We did look alike. Did she mean our personalities,too?
Otou-san tells me every night that I'm most like him on the inside. Didn't know what that meant conpletly.
Naruto's POV "Alright, let's go home," I said standing up.
"Can't I just stay with you?," Atsuko whined.
"No, Okaa-san is probably worried about you."
"But I'm fine. You can see that."
"Yes, I can."
"So, can't we just wait until you get off?"
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu"
"What's with the clone?
"He's going to stay here, while I take you back home."
I picked her up and walked out of the office.
"Otou-san?," Atsuko asked.
"Yes?,' I replied.
"Can I learn that jutsu that you showed Nii-san how to use,?" she asked.
"No, you're to young," I replied.
"But it can come in handy one day. I want to show people at the academy what I can do!"
"You'll be in the academy in three years. Besides, it didn't take Akira that long how to use the jutsu."
"Yeah, but he learns much faster than I do."
"Tell you what, if you figure out how to say it correctly, I'll teach you."
"Really?!"
"Yep. Okay, Rasengan!
"Ra-what?!"
"Ha,ha,ha! I'm only was going to say it once."
"That's not fair! You said it really fast!"
"Atsuko, I sais it at my normal paste."
"No, you didn't!"
"And don't go ask your brother."
"Ah! You're being so unfair!"
"If I were you, I wouldn't be worrying about the jutsu right now. We're at home."
I felt her shiver in my arms.
When we got in the house, Hinata took Atsuko out of my arms and hugged her close.
"Oh, I was so worried about you!"
Atsuko was struggling to get her arms loose and her legs were half way up towards the back.
"For what? I just went to Otou-san's office," she replied.
"Yeah, but I didn't know that!," Hinata said.
"I'm sorry, Okaa-san," Atsuko whispered sadly.
Oh no, you don't. Don't try and get on her good side, so she won't be upset about the prank you did earlier.
"She didn't come directly to my officr," I said
"What are you talking about, Naruto?," Hinata asked truly worried.
Atsuko tipped her head back to look at me. I didn't take my eyes off my wife's, though.
"She played a little prank at Ichiraku's today. Putting bugs in people's orders."
"Atsuko! Why would you that?!," Hinata asked.
Atsuko let her legs fall, brushing up against Hinata's.
"I was bored," Atsuko whispered.
"You told me that you were practicing your jutsu outside and I saw you out there," replied Hinata.
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu."
Hinata looked at me. I simply shrugged.
"If you learn that so fast, why don't you put that much effort in learning how to control your chakra?"
"Because that's boring! It isn't interesting at all! Kage Bunshin no Jutsu is better."
"Everything isn't going to be fun, Suko," I put in.
I liked to call her Suko sometimes. Akira came up with it.
"I know. Its just so hard. I hate it," she whined.
"I can help you, Suko," Akira suddenly appeared.
"Onii-san!," Atsuko screamed.
Hinata put her down and Atsuko ran over to him and hugged his waist. Akira ruffled her hair.
"No,its okay,Onii-chan."
"Why?"
"Right now, I'm devoted to learning Dad's jutsu.
"What jutsu, you mean the Rasengan?"
"Ha! Yes!"
Dammit, I forgot to tell him not to say anything.
"Say it," I told her.
"Rase- Rase...darn I forgot again."
"Okay, dinner's done," Hinata said
"Coming, Kaa-san," Akira said.
"Yay! I'm starving!,' Atsuko yelled.
She ran in the kitchen. I was stopped, when I heard Akira call my name.
"Tou-san?"
"Yes."
"Are you really going to teach Suko how to use the Rasengan?"
"Yes. It seems like if I don't, she'll keep bothering me about it."
"Oh."
"Don't worry about it, Akira."
"Right."
We walked into the kitchen and ate dinner. Atsuko didn't get any desert because of her prank. Hinata gave her a bath and she was put to bed early, as a punishment.
NEXT DAY
Atsuko's POV
It was 6:00 in the evening and I still couldn't say that damn word!
Whoops!
I asked Nii-san to help me, but he said no. Otou-san.
"Rase- Rasen- Rasengin. No, that doesn't sound right. Rasengen. That's not either."
Come on, think about what they said.
I get it now!
"Rasengan!"
I ran out the living room and outside. I saw Okaa-san.
"Bye Okaa-san!"
"Wait, where are you going?"
"To Otou-san's office. I figured it out!"
"What did you figure out?"
"Nevermind. I'll tell you when I get home."
I ran as fast as my little feet cold carry me. When, I reached his office, I charged in.
"Hey, your suppos...," he stopped when he realized who it was.
"Suko what are you doing here? You didn't sneak out of the house, again, did you?" he asked.
I just laughed.
"I figured it out. Now you have to teach me," I said smiling.
"What did you figure out?," he was doing this on purpose.
"Your move's name. Rasengan!
"Say it."
"Rasengan!
"Again"
"RASENGAN!"
I yelled it very loud. Otou-san smiled and got up from his chair.
"So, you ready to learn it?"
