Chapter 1: The Boy Who Lives In A Mask
--
It was a nice day outside as the birds chirped with merriment as the sun blazed down on their wings. Some couples who happened to be going for a morning jog together would actually stop and listen to the slightly twittering birds. Admiring as each bird couple seemed to flutter together like themselves.
Same could not be said for, Namikaze-Uzumaki, Naruto, who was currently blazing through the park as a short cut. As always, he was about to be late for school. Normally he wouldn't particularly care since his homeroom teacher was the known chronically late Hatake, Kakashi, but today he didn't think he could beat Kakashi there.
He woke up later than usual that morning with a slight...problem. Usually that problem wouldn't be much of a problem, but today it just wouldn't go away. Yes, he could blame it on Jiraiya's stupid persistence in making him, and actually getting him to read the new volume of Icha Icha: Closet Mayhem.
Though he could also blame it on the recent dreams he'd been having. Naruto grunted as he tripled his speed. He didn't need to think back to that, but all he knew was he woke up and took a barely two minute shower while brushing his teeth as he tried to put on his shirt.
As Naruto ran, he also noticed the Japanese Military tanks littering around. It was 2123, and the Japanese Military had long since taken over all of Japan. Meaning there was no Cabinets or House of Representatives. Just the Military and their organization called Konoha.
Though Naruto didn't mind because it was all he'd ever known, and from what he heard from all the older folks, everything is pretty much like it used to be. Just with more violence he guessed.
Naruto was dressed in his schools normal uniform. He had on some black slacks with a white button down shirt with two buttons not buttoned at the top. Slightly showing his well developed muscles. He also had a black tie with golden slanted stripes that was loosened just under his second unbuttoned button (I know that sounds a little weird.). While his off black slightly green blazer was slung over his shoulder.
Naruto was a handsome boy, or some girls might say he was extremely HOT! With his spiked blonde hair that slightly hung down his neck, and he had cyan blue eyes that held energy and a hyper active glow. His body was lean and he had strong muscles since he was co-captain on the baseball team. Naruto was a heart throb, but girls didn't seem to want to date him because of his jumpy personality. Though he didn't care because he got the girl he always wanted.
But another thing they didn't seem to like was his obsession with the color orange. Yeah, you could say that wasn't a valid reason since his uniform didn't consist of a bit of orange. Except for the fact he at this very moment was bright orange high top sneakers. That seemed to illuminate as his feet hit the pavement on Konoha High school stairs.
Naruto ran through the hall way as he glanced at the clocks around the school, looking for any sign of class A-4. Naruto probably got the worst grades of the smartest class in his school.
When any class had an A, that class was considered the smartest of that grade, and the grade level usually came after the A. This year was actually his first time in a classes; him usually being in the lower levels of the school system.
Many thought he should be in C-4. Which was considered average, but his average grades in a genius class would at least put him in B-4.
No one knew how he got in that class since you had to take a test to even be considered worthy, but Naruto seemed to be just above passing level to get in.
He turned the corner, and in bold cursive letters was A-4. Naruto ran like Kami was at his heels saying that if he didn't make it he would not be able to eat ramen for a month. This meant ten years in Naruto eating time, and might actually happen, if Iruka found out since he was good friends with Teuchi. The man who usually gave Naruto his ramen fix, so Naruto got to the mahogany door, and he yanked it with so much force he thought it would come off the hinges.
He looked up, and was almost positive he didn't make it. Until he saw a sight that made his whole week. He saw students sitting on desktops chatting away. Acting like they didn't even see him. He saw them throwing paper airplanes and spitballs. He actually saw one couple making out at the other end of the room.
"Oi Naruto, you baka. Why are you just standing there?" And there sitting with all his other friends was Inuzuka, Kiba. The guy who was probably his best friend after the guy he affectionately called teme.
Kiba had spiked brown hair and dark brown feral eyes. He was also wearing the uniform. Only the buttons on his shirt were completely buttoned with his tie also hanging loosely, and Naruto could vaguely see a black under shirt. He, unlike Naruto, actually had on his blazer with the sleeves cut jaggedly little past his elbow with him wearing dark fingerless gloves.
"Who are you calling baka you doggy chew toy!" Naruto said affectionately as he sat beside a sleeping boy with his head down; smiling excitedly at being on time. The sleeping boy stirred as he looked at Naruto irritated. This guy was Nara, Shikamaru, and the school's local lazy genius.
Shikamaru almost got just as bad grades as Naruto because he never finished his tests. He always went to sleep a couple of questions before finishing. Leaving 3/4 of the test unanswered. Shikamaru was wearing the uniform also. Only missing his tie.
"Geez Naruto. Can you get more troublesome? I was trying to take my daily nap." Shikamaru said as he almost cursed when two arms wrapped around his neck. He'd thought he'd alluded this by playing dead, but he didn't let the words slip of fear of head trauma.
There behind Shikamaru stood his girlfriend Yamanaka Ino. With her long blonde hair in ponytail as she held some of it back with blue hair clips that matched her eyes. She was smiling a toothy smile as she almost choked Shika to death. After probably just coming from gossiping with one of the class nosys.
It wasn't that Shikamaru didn't love Ino. How couldn't he? She was pretty, had a nice body from being the girls volleyball team captain, and half the guys at the school would love if she looked their way. It was just she so...troublesome, and though he could handle her tirade most of the time. It was such a...drag.
"Shikamaru you're finally awake. You didn't even give me my good morning kiss when you walked me to school this morning," Shikamaru blushed as Ino stood up in the normal girl school uniform. She had an off black greenish skirt that dangled little past her thighs with her school tie tied around a calf that was undeterred by her socks that went to her knee. Her off black blazer tied around her waist, and she was wearing six bangles on each arm. Representing the long twelve years all of them had been friends.
"Shika, you can't still be embarrassed by that. We have been dating for two years. You'd think you'd get over it," Ino said as she nibbled on his earring clad ear. It was true. They'd been dating the longest out of the group. Except of course for Tenten and Neji. Who'd been dating since they were thirteen. Now being seventeen like everyone else in their group.
"Well Ino, not everyone's a bitch like you, so they don't know how to be as open as a bitch in heat." Kiba said trying to help Shikamaru from his position. Everyone knew Ino couldn't resist a fight. Especially when it came to his Sakura and Kiba.
Shikamaru gave Kiba a half smile. Knowing if she'd continued, she'd lock him in an unintentional headlock in which he couldn't breathe. Killing him softly because he thought it was too troublesome to stop her.
"WELL KIBA, ATLEAST MY BREATH DOESN'T SMELL LIKE DOG SHIT BECAUSE I BRUSH MY TEETH WITH MY DOG'S..." Ino couldn't finish as the forgotten Kakashi walked in and gave her a certain look.
"Well Yamanaka-san, I see you're still expressing yourself with unnecessary screams, and while I'd love to deal with your screeching this morning, I feel a little agitated because my sister got captured by aliens. So I ended up having to travel to Pluto and Mars to play an intergalactic game of Dance Dance Revolution to win her back, so unless you want a visit to the principal. I suggest you have a set," Kakashi said as he eye smiled, and everyone was so dumbstruck they didn't even call him out on his tardiness, again.
"Yes Kakashi-sensei,"Ino didn't say a word to argue as she took her sit behind Shikamaru, and next to Kiba. She did not need another visit to Tsunade after her last warning, and she could tell Kakashi wasn't kidding. Apparently her next punishment had something to do with her and helping Maito Gai by becoming his gym assistant, and she also was a little wary because Kakashi seemed a little off. Maybe he was captured by aliens.
"Arigato Yamanaka-san. Now everyone, you know I'd love to just ignore your existence and read the new addition of Icha Icha: Galactic Wars, but Tsunade said she would making a little drop by. Meaning I have to actually teach this morning, so everyone turn to page 16 in your work books, and let's begin pronunciation. Everyone groaned. As half of them didn't even bring their activity books to class.
Expecting they'd have forty-five minutes of free time like always. One of them being Naruto himself. Leaving him to share with Shikamaru, or rather take his book since he was already fast asleep. Thank goodness most of them had good teachers in the years before, or they probably wouldn't know a word of English since Kakashi never taught.
He slightly felt bad for the kids who'd had Kakashi since freshman year. Since Kakashi taught all A-English classes for every year students. He doubted the kids could even say a proper sentence. Let alone hold a conversation.
He'd been out with Sakura once, and an American tourist came to Sakura asking directions while Naruto was in the bathroom. He came back to see an accomplished looking Sakura and a confused looking tourist. He asked Sakura what she said, and she said she told him where the local ramen bar was.
He asked the guy and the guy said she offered to gut his children in the men's bathroom at the local tea shop. Naruto couldn't help but burst out laughing. Apparently Sakura could understand the guy, she just couldn't form sentences right because of Kakashi, so he told the guy where Ichiraku's was and left letting Sakura think she was completely right about everything.
Naruto smiled at the little outing with him and his girlfriend. He couldn't wait for lunch when he could see her beautiful smile.
Lunchtime
Naruto ran out of the crowded room with eagerness, and it wasn't because today was the day for the ramen buffet. It was because he got to see his precious Sakura for the first time of the day.
Since Sakura and some of their other friends had started off taking A classes from the beginning of freshman year, on one certain day they didn't have to come in until lunch, and since they were all friends, Sasuke, Sakura, Tenten, Neji, Gaara, Shino, and Lee usually chose one day out of the week to hang around until they had to go to class.
Ino and Kiba had started off in C classes while he started off in the worst classes. Which were the D classes, and all three of them build their selves up into the A. Shikamaru, he actually started in the A classes, but since he didn't do his work, he slowly ended up in the B classes.
Naruto ran in the room looking for their table when he saw a head filled with pink silky hair. He ran over, and there sat Haruno, Sakura in all her glory. She was laughing at something Moaki, Tenten said as her green irises seemed to light up. Sakura was smart, beautiful, and perfect.
She was tall and slender in build with her short pink hair seemed to end just before reaching her shoulders. She was wearing the normal girls uniform, but on her it looked ten times better. Her shirt was unbuttoned one button from the top. Showing her pink undershirt, and her locket he gave her when he first asked her out. She also had her blazer around her waist, but her tie was fashionably tied around her head like a headband. The ends hanging down her back. The outfit was topped off with brown loafers and pink socks.
"So Tenten-chan, do you have a partner for Kurenai-sensei's History project?" Sakura asked as she sipped her drink. Tenten looked behind Sakura as she saw Naruto come and sit by Sakura. Who didn't seem to notice.
"Yeah, unfortunately for me. I wished you had of asked sooner. Lee-kun asked me as soon as class was over. I had to say yes. Who else would have worked with him? Lee's a cool guy, but he's just so loud." Tenten shivered slightly as Sakura's shoulders slumped.
"Oh, I see. I have no one to work with. I was thinking of asking Sasuke, but that'd be totally weird since we hate each other's guts. He's such a bastard sometimes." Sakura said, and she was right. Though she had been Naruto's girlfriend for two months, she never got along with Sasuke because she used to be in his fan-club until she started liking Naruto back.
"I'll work with you Sakura-chan!" Naruto practically yelled as Sakura jumped. Not yet noticing his presence. Sakura looked startled and looked at Tenten for help. Tenten just shook her head as she suddenly became rather interested in her onigiri.
Sakura smiled a weak smile. How could she say this nicely? She loved Naruto, and it was true he was in all her advanced classes. Though it wasn't the fact of being in the classes, it was the kinda grades you made in them, too.
And while Naruto's Cs had improved to Bs since she'd started dating him. That wasn't enough. He was still practically dead last when their tests scores were posted. She needed to get an A in this project because it was for half the grade in the class, and she doubted Naruto would make the grade. Seeing as the project was slightly completed.
They had to research, and write a paper. Incorporating what they'd learned in Japanese Literature. They had to work with Science. Keeping in touch with the almost forgotten lessons. They also had to roll all of it into one, and make it into History. This was all due by next week, and she didn't need Naruto's distractions. She had alot of work to do.
"Gomenasai Naruto, but I think I might actually work this on alone. I plan for my project to be extraordinary, and a partner might hold me down. I have a certain vision for what I want to do, and a partner with constricting ideas might clash." Sakura said as she easily lied.
She wanted a partner. She hated to admit it, but she needed one. Just not Naruto. She'd have to find one without Naruto finding out. Ino was probably with Shika. Shino was with Neji since they were in different class periods, and she was sure Gaara would work with Temari while Kankoru worked with Chouji since Shikamaru wasn't around.
And now that she'd ditched Naruto, he'd probably ask Sasuke since they were best friends. Though she didn't want work with that prick anyway. Which left only one person. 'Oh No! No! Not him,' Sakura thought. 'It's either him, or you can go with the baka you call boyfriend or the friend you call bastard. Choose,' Though Sakura knew she'd already chosen.
"Oh, okay. Well what about you Sasuke. I heard you didn't have a partner. I guess I am stuck with you." Naruto said glumly as Sakura noticed all the aforementioned friends had joined the table with her, Naruto, and Tenten. Though looking at Sasuke, Neji, and Gaara. She'd guessed they'd heard the whole conversation. It seemed they were the only ones who remembered it was mandatory partnership since Sasuke was glaring at her harder than usual, Neji looked slightly curious, and Gaara just seemed to stare at her.
It was either that or she had something stuck in her teeth. She kinda guessed it was the latter since Sasuke stopped looking at her to answer Naruto. Which was surprisingly almost two sentences.
"Hn. Whatever dobe, but we have to stop by the Konoha Organization after school since Itachi works there and my Otou-san has added it to his funding list." Sasuke said as he then began ignoring everybody. Though Naruto and everyone else weren't surprised by what he said since Sasuke was loaded.
His father, Uchiha Fugaku, was the head of the Uchiha Weaponry Guild. There used to be three guilds of weaponry. The Uchihas, the Hyuugas, and his family the Namikazes. Though now there was only one guild that was currently active because both Naruto and Neji's family were dead.
Neji was known as the last Hyuuga even though he still had his baby cousin Hanabi, and Naruto was the last Namikaze and Uzumaki. And since they both were minors and had no experience in business, they couldn't take over their families companies. While Neji's clan was slaughtered, Naruto never had anyone but his parents.
That's how he and Sasuke became best friends. His parents worked at the Konoha Organization, and since Itachi graduated college at the age of 12 and started working at Konoha as soon as possible, Naruto has known Sasuke since he was six. Meeting him through his parents. Though Naruto didn't meet Neji until awhile later.
But Konoha was what killed his parents. He didn't know all the details, but from what he got from Director Sarutobi, an accident in the labs was their unfortunate demise. Though soon after their deaths, Director Sarutobi assigned his father's sensei to be his care taker for awhile, but even though it'd been ten years since their deaths, Naruto still couldn't help but mourn.
Afterschool
The rest of the day for Naruto was slightly melancholy as he watched Sakura parading around in her short shorts in gym to mysteriously almost blowing up Iruka's class during Calculus 2. Honestly, he didn't know how he got a lit match on Iruka's desk. It was impossible.
He was going to leave with his head hanging as he came out of the school to see Sasuke and his black 2124 Mantanka Ployer (Totally made it up. Like I know what kinda cars their gonna have in about one hundred years. I don't even know what their gonna have next month. Just have an imagination. PLEASE! I don't know how to explain what it looks like. It looks cool. There you go! It looks...cool.) surrounded by shrieking fan girls, and his now sulking girlfriend.
Naruto really didn't get why all the girls liked Sasuke. He was wearing the normal uniform, and the only alteration was his shirt was un-tucked. But Naruto's, Shikamaru's, and half the boys there did that. The only ones he knew that didn't were Shino, Neji, Lee, and surprisingly Kiba.
Sasuke looked normal to him. Sasuke had black hair with two side bangs and it was spiked at the back. His eyes were an unusual black like all the other Uchihas, and he had a neutral lean build. Nothing to hurray about that. Though he was the baseball teams Captain, Naruto being his second in command.
Of course Naruto wasn't jealous of Sasuke. That was his best friend, and though his girlfriend used to be one of his fan girls, they were still cool. He just didn't see what the fuss was about. If it was because of money, then his friend had plenty of that, but other than that, what was the attraction.
Naruto walked forward to see Sakura's attention turn to him. She smiled from her perch next to Sasuke's car, then she ran to hug him. Naruto caught her in his strong arms as he gave her a peck on the check. Sakura told him long before their first date that she had a reputation to uphold; Which meant not too much touchy feely in public.
"Sakura-chan, what are you doing here? Tenten, Ino, and Temari started walking home awhile ago." Naruto usually walked Sakura home, but he had detention today and he planned to head down to Konoha with Sasuke right after school. So he told Ino and the girls to make sure Sakura got home safely. Since there had been more than one incident in which the military flunkies in the surrounding tanks have attacked women and have done rather unpleasant things.
"Well, I told Tenten-chan, Ino-chan, and Temari-chan I'd catch up with them later. I guess I forgot that you were planning to head to Konoha today. Gomen." Sakura said as she hugged him tighter. Naruto hated to ask this since he knew that Sakura and Sasuke didn't have the best relationship, but he couldn't let her walk home alone. And what since would it make for him to walk her home and then walk all the way back to the school to go with Sasuke.
"Sakura-chan, looks like you're riding with the teme and me," Sakura went to complain but I stopped her," Come on Sakura-chaaaaan. You have already caused a bit of an inconvenience. Please don't make me do alllllll that walking?!" Naruto said with a whine.
Sakura was tempted to deny him, but he was right. It was her fault for refusing Temari's and the girls offer to be walked home, and she also wouldn't be in this mess if she had of just partnered with Naruto liked he asked. And it wasn't like Sasuke hated her. He just found her presence irritating since she and Ino used to stalk him.
Sakura gave a defeated nod, and Naruto jumped for joy with his characteristic 'Dattebayo' since he rarely if ever won arguments against Sakura. It just didn't happen, and when it did, a celebration was needed.
Naruto grabbed Sakura's hand as he ran to Sasuke. Barreling through fan girls with one hand. Though Sakura was the only one receiving the glares. When they got to the middle, they saw Sasuke looking irate as he leaned against his car. He looked up and gave a questioning glance at Sakura. Giving Naruto a glance as if asking why she was there.
"Teme, Sakura-chan forgot we were going to Konoha today, so she thought I was going to walk her home. Can you please give her a lift to her house? I can't let her walk home alone." Naruto said in a rushed sentence. Still surrounded by fan girls.
Sasuke looked from Naruto to Sakura. Who currently was looking at the pavement. Not wanting to see his superior looking gaze bare down on her. Sasuke seemed to think for awhile. Fan girls waiting on baited breath. They did not need any competition.
"Hn. Whatever dobe." Sasuke said as he opened his door that made a swish sound as the door opened up like popping a trunk. Naruto smiled a mega watt smile as he planned to get shot gun. Hearing Sakura clear her throat. Naruto realized she was still there and opened the shot gun door similar to Sasuke's as he let Sakura in. Him getting in the back which opened like a regular old car. Him sulking slightly.
--
Sasuke and Naruto were on their way to Konoha after dropping Sakura off. Naruto felt the ride to her house was a little tense since Sasuke refused to let Sakura turn on the radio to listen to Kakuya Tibao and Kakuya Misa. The sister DJ team that played girly JPOP.
This led to a one way argument with Sasuke winning since it was his car, and he seemed to be unaffected by Sakura's screeching and cursing. While Naruto was in the back whimpering from the ear damage he was receiving.
So after Naruto walked Sakura to her door, he gave her a peck on the cheek and ran for Sasuke's car full speed. Leaving Sakura confused on her porch. The truth was Naruto really wanted to ride shot gun since Sasuke just got that car a week earlier, and it was his first time riding in it.
"Nice teme. Though it needs a little more orange. I can't wait until I get my inheritance. Then I won't have to work at that stupid job anymore, and I can get an even better car than this," Naruto said as he turned on the radio to Huguru Momo and Tikana Fugan. The male dream team of Tokyo when it came to music.
They were currently listening to a song by a band named Abingdon (There is a Japanese band by the name of Abingdon Boys School, and this is their song. I do not own it. I just took the first name and made up a new band.). They were currently Naruto's and Sasuke's favorite band, and their new song Nephilim was now being played on the radio.
Hanatareta tsubasa ga negai wo makichirashite
Konoyo no hate otoshita inori no sora e to
Naruto's eyes began to flutter close as he listened to the sorrowful lyrics.
Sono hitomi ni utsusu no wa kaketa tsuki no rasen
Nazoru yubi ga tadoritsuku basho wo sagashiteru
Dakiau tabi yojireru hada to binetsu wo
Musaboru you ni mata mune wo shimetsukeru
Naruto's head began to rock as the music seemed to build again.
Hanatareta tsubasa ga negai wo makichirashite
Konoyo no hate otoshita inori no sora e to
Naruto absentmindedly rubbed his chest right over his heart as he listened.
Yoru no fuchi ni saku hana wo mimi e oshiatete
Hibiku machi no zawameki ni toiki wo kasaneta
Ima mo nijimu ano hi hagureta kioku ga
Kareta hazu no itami wo kizu ni kaeta
Naruto pictured a picture of his parents and him as it burned. Just like the remains of his family home.
Karisome no tsubasa de habataku inochi no hi wa
Aragau tsumi wo sashite omoi wa kimi e to
Chinurareta tsubasa wa mai agari kaze ni nari
Ikusen ni kudakareta chikai wo sora e to
Karisome no tsubasa de habataku inochi no hi wa
Aragau tsumi wo sashite omoi wa kimi e to
Naruto opened his eyes to see they'd arrived on the base of Konoha Organizations as he turned the radio off. His mood seemed to have dampened after hearing a song he swore was written just for him, and he knew the only reason Sasuke liked it because he was being emo again. Though to Naruto, it meant more. It was practically his life in those lyrics.
Naruto watched as Sasuke pulled up to the gate. They should be able to get in on their face alone, but the guard had to follow procedure. There were allot of people out there who'd kill to get into that facility, and now a days it was as simple as having a computer to copy someone's face and edit it on to yours.
The guard slid Sasuke's identity card in and once access was granted, he let them in. Sasuke drove as the ground began to tip as it formed an underground ramp as Sasuke drove through.
They drove into and underground garage, and parked in a space that said 'special' guest. They both got out of the car as they walked to a plain glass window like door, or it seemed plain until Sasuke swiped his identity card near the invisible scanner.
Numbers, circles, letter, and squares appeared as Sasuke put in a code that had to be changed every month. The door then slid up with a swoosh sound as if opening a can of soda. The two walked in and it was completely white as scientists walked around. All wearing lab coats and goggles.
It was completely white from the walls to the floor tiles. The only changing color was Naruto's bright orange shoes, and Sasuke's ordinary black loafers that only contained a contrasting silver buckle.
They walked down the hall ways, and no matter how many times Naruto had been there. He couldn't for the life of him figure out where Sasuke was taking him. Until he saw glass double doors like the previous one, and like the previous one. Sasuke slid down his identity card, and different shapes, numbers, and letters appeared. This pass word only having to be changed every other month.
Sasuke punched in another code, and they walked into a room that contained different scientists. And some people who probably worked in a different department in Konoha. Itachi being one of the scientists, he spotted them and walked over with an etch of a smile.
"Sasuke-to, welcome," Itachi looked at Naruto and nodded," It is nice to see you also, Naruto-san, and while I'd like to converse with you, I must talk to Sasuke-to about family business for awhile. And I know two special people who'd like to talk to you."
Itachi began walking towards a man wearing a suit consisting of red, silver, and green. At that very moment, Naruto's heart just stopped. Only one person could wear such a hideous suit out in the public, and still try to pick up chicks. No, please don't be who I think it is.
Though judging by the wild silver mane that was protruding of the man's head, he knew exactly who it was, and he wanted to run for the hills. Though, before he could stop him, Itachi went and whispered something in his ear. The man tensed, and slowly turned around with a wide grin on his face.
"Naruto," The man gave a loud bellow that almost shook the glass doors loose, and before Naruto knew it, Jiraiya clamped a large hand on his shoulder. Leading him out of the room as he looked back to see the same amused face on both Uchiha's faces. They just declared war on a Namikaze, and that was not pretty. Ever heard of the Great Wall of China. Didn't think so. (This is a reference to something that happened 50 years from today. Chinese jackasses piss of Naruto's grandfather. Crap goes down, and so does the wall. I have nothing against Chinese people. I repeat, I have nothing against Chinese people.)
"So Naruto, you haven't been here in awhile," It was true. He hadn't stopped by in a month a two, and that was because of a dream he was having before the more recent...sexual ones. Though it was safe to say, the dream left a nasty taste in his mouth, so he tried to stir clear of this place as long as he could.
Which was definitely hard since he practically grew up there. With Jiraiya, the old man, and many others.
"Yeah, I've been really busy, and since I don't have car, it's kinda hard to get so far out. And I doubt a bus runs out this far," Naruto had a job, but the truth was. He didn't have to work. He had both Jiraiya and Ojii-san willing to give him whatever he wanted, but he didn't want their money. He wanted the money that was naturally his.
"Hmmm. I see. I'll talk to Sarutobi-sama about getting some buses to come a little further out then," They both knew he was lying. Would no bus come near 10 ft of this place. It had cemented itself as untouchable
"Naruuutooo," Jiraiya said, and Naruto knew the innocent conversation was too good to be true, "Did you get my little gift? I had it especially sealed with an exploding time bomb if it wasn't opened within an hour," Jiraiya said as if he accomplished a great feat.
"Yeah, I kinda figured that out when it started sparkling and ticking!," Naruto said as he almost popped Jiraiya's head off. Jiraiya seemed to put his hands up in defeat as Naruto fumed. He honestly didn't know where Jiraiya got the bomb from. Jiraiya didn't work in weaponry. He worked in the defense department.
Meaning he basically sat on his ass all day. Writing scrolls of training regiments for soldiers in his force called ANBU. He didn't even get out in the field, and I know what you're asking. Why didn't Naruto just open the Icha Icha but not read it?
You try putting down a tempting Icha Icha when it almost blew you to kingdom come. It is hard as hell! So Naruto read the whole thing. Spending his night with a nose bleed, and a problem that lasted tell morning. Or mid-morning. Whichever!
"Well, it was just a gift, but now that you've got that cute little girlfriend I've heard about. So you don't need my Icha Icha do you kid, and I hope you liked the little character Nakura. She was just for you," And as Naruto remembered the character. He remembered she had short pink with green eyes, and she had a boyfriend named Sa...ru...to.
"JIRAIYA! YOU FUCKING HENTAI! NOW DO YOU SEE WHY I CALL YOU ERO-SENNIN," Anyone walking by would have distinctively heard what sounded like someone being beaten and a small mumbled," Would you rather her name have been Nasuke?"

Hi Guys! I'm Naruto's beloved doll and right now I'm excited cause I got permission from Syn'ri continue her fic. Right now I only have time to correct spelling error and just start the 3rd chappie along with Chappie 2 of Beautiful Dreams. I'll post it as soon as I can just have to deal with the EOCT's, SAT's, ACT's and all the other test and summer classes I have to deal with first! SO JA NE for now!
I have the translation here from the song above if you want it. It's called Nephilim by Abingdon Boys School if you didn't get it from above.
"My released wings scatter my wishes
Towards this destroyed world, to a sky full of prayers
The cracked moon's spiral is reflected in these eyes
My tracing finger struggles to find the place
Embracing this journey, my skin twists with fever
Like a deep desire, my chest tightens again
My released wings scatter my wishes
Towards this destroyed world, to a sky full of prayers
In the night's abyss, a blooming flower presses against my ears
My sighs pile up in the noises of the city
Even now that day is blurry and lost in my memory
This must have run out, the pain was replaced by a scar
With my temporary wings I flap at the light of life
Against my punishment, I direct my feelings towards you
My blood soaked wings rise and become the wind
A thousand wishes smash and soar towards the sky
With my temporary wings I flap at the lamplight of life
Against my punishment, I direct my feelings towards you"
