Chapter 1

For the first day of spring, it was still very cold outside. But luckily for our favourite hero, he happened to be in a nice, heated car, driving down the interstate. But what wasn't lucky for our hero is why he was in the car.

"I don't see the point! Why couldn't I just stay in Suna? Or even the land of wind!? I actually had friends!" Shouted Naruto as he was so against the whole moving idea.

"NARUTO!, I have already told you! We think we might have found you a living relative!" The Foster worker tried to explain as best he could with out reaching back there and strangling Naruto. He and Naruto had known each other for years, since are blond loudmouth was 5 months old.

"Come on Iruka! He is probably some old pervert that can't even remember his own name!" Naruto spat. "I was finally in a good home and you have to move me!"

"Naruto enough! You are not the only one who had to make sacrifices! Look at me! I had to move as well to make sure you at least knew someone in the city! Not to mention your grandfather who has most generously allowed you and me to come live with him!" He was literally vibrating in his seat with anger. He may have known Naruto all his life, but he wasn't against pulling over and hitting him.

"I guess…" Naruto started as he trailed off, his thoughts in multiple places, who was his grandfather? Why hadn't he claim him when his parents dies? Why had Iruka stuck with him for so long? Would his grandfather be able to tell him who his parent were? He didn't know "How long till we umm get to the city?" The blond said with utter sadness in his tone. It broke Iruka's heart. All of his anger dissipated as he thought what his favorite blond was going through.

"We have 20 or so minutes till we arrive." Iruka said, with the hint of sympathy in his voice. The rest of the trip was in silent Naruto's thoughts dwelling on his questions and the brunette's thoughts were on how his "little brother" would do in the big city of Konoha.

-•••••••••••••••••••••-

Their car pulled up to a street with only two houses, both extremely large, and luxurious. Both were lighten from the inside, Iruka turned to the house on the left. Both occupants of the car gaped at the sheer size of the house.

"It's bigger then the mall in Suna! And you were worried Naruto!"Iruka exclaimed. In truth It probably was as big as the mall. Naruto was as nervous as he has ever been, he went to the trunk and grabbed his and Iruka's suitcases and went and meet him at the door.

"Are you ready Naruto?" Iruka asked, his voice filled with concern. All he got was a simple nod and Iruka knocked with the brass knocker. As the door open light was let into the dark cold night as a silhouette appeared in the door way.

"We'll you guys Certianly took you'r time. You must be Iruka." Said the man as he shook the brunette's hand "Is t-that you N-Naruto?" Naruto looked up at his grandfather and just stared in awe.

"Naruto! Say hello to your grandfather! Jiraiya"

"Hhhhhi J-jiraiya" Naruto said nervously, felling about ready to puke and pass out. The two just stared at each other for a few minutes before Iruka's chattering jaw brought them out of there trance.

"Oh sorry there Iruka, how rude of me come on in!" Jiraiya said kindly as he led them from the door to the living room where Naruto and Iruka sat across from the white haired man and sat in silence for a few minutes before Naruto broke.

"Why wernt you there!?" Naruto yelled of of the questions that had been eating at him since the car ride.

"Naruto! Mind your manners!" The brunette yelled, any feeling of sympathy gone for the moment.

"No no Iruka it's fine, we probably both have questions for each other. But today has been quite long for you I'm quite sure and I had a busy day at work so why don't we ask and answer tomorrow?" Jiraiya said, even though he wanted to stay up and talk with Naruto, he knew it would be to fast for both of them. The elder if the group lead them up a flight of stairs and down a very long and wide hallway. He first lead Iruka to his room and Naruto to his, which was just across from the brunette's. As Naruto was about to shut his door Jiraiya added.

"I hope you have a good nights sleep." With a smile walked away leaving Naruto to shut his door stripped down to his boxers and laid in his bed. It was to dark to see what the room looked like but he didn't care, he was to tired and within seconds fell asleep.
