AN: Sorry, Would have gotten the first chapter done faster but school took over, had to finish a declaration of independence project for Gov. Class and a speech for English :( Well now that I'm done with that I can work on this story and so here is the first chapter.
'Oh, kami this is highly embarrassing, I'll get you back Jiraiya-sensei.'- Minato (Something New Everyday)
A Scheming Hokage
Chapter 1: Icha Icha Paradise Banned
Minato Namikaze sat doing a pile of paperwork, his hand flashing down the stamp that he was using to sign the dreaded work. He had two reasons for working this fast. One he had to pick up his seven year-old son, Naruto from the academy and two he had to run a special errand. Now normally Kushina would pick Naruto up, but he had her out doing a B-ranked mission in Suna.
"Please, Yukijoro will you hurry and pass me the last pile." said Minato, not taking his eyes off the papers as he finished off the last pages from the pile that he was working on in a flash.
"Here you go Hokage-sama." answered Yukijoro, as she handed him the last pile.
"Thank you."
Overall it had taken twenty minutes to finish all piles of paperwork. Minato got up, dismissed his assistant and looked at the clock.
4:15, kami I'm cutting it close! Thought Minato, performing the needed hand seals and teleported in a puff of smoke. A couple seconds later he appeared in front of the academy. Minato then leaned on a wall and waited for the last five minutes to go by.
Come on, I got to get going. Minato thought impatiently, when all of the sudden out of nowhere he felt his waist getting grabbed with such force that he almost fell down.
"Naruto, so how has your first couple weeks been so far?" Minato asks kneeling down to his son's level and looking at his son.
"Great daddy, but why do you and mom always ask that?"
"Oh, because parent's like to that's why." answered Minato, laughing after seeing his son tilting his head and squinting fox like at the answer.
Still kneeling down Minato motioned for his son to climb onto his shoulders. Naruto climbed aboard and put his arms around the top of his father's head and then felt himself going upwards. With his son sitting atop his shoulders, Minato started walking down the street hoping to get to the publishers before Jiraiya. Minato knew that Jiraiya always for some reason went to the same publishers in Konoha on a Friday, which is today. Minato was heading there to pull one of his payback pranks that he had schemed up.
As Minato was walking a couple of Naruto's classmates, which were Sakura, Ino, and Shikamaru greeted him and Naruto and then ran off to do their academy homework. But the nice walk soon turned dark in nature as they walked pass a few villagers, who were giving Naruto looks of pure hatred.
"Look it's the demon brat. It shouldn't even be in our village." one villager, a man said.
"Maybe we should kill it." said the other villager, who was the man's wife.
"Maybe we should tie it up, torture it, and then rape it." said the third villager, who was another woman.
Minato, who thanks to his very good hearing, had heard what the villagers had said and got very pissed off. Grabbing Naruto and putting him down on the ground, Minato saw that his son's face was full of tears. In a flash Minato had all three villagers pinned onto the wall of a shop by his kunai.
"You type of people make me sick. He's not a demon; a seven year-old boy and my son."
"All I see is the damn Kyuubi," the man spat out "I see no boy."
The other two villagers nodded in agreement to what the man said.
Glaring at the villagers, Minato snapped his fingers and the two ANBU that always followed him at a distance come over. One ANBU wore a cat mask and was quite tall. The other ANBU wore a dog mask and looked quite young.
"You called us Hokage-sama?" asks Cat.
"Yes, I'm sure you heard and saw what happened." Minato said as he ties up the villagers.
"Yes, Hokage-sama." both ANBU answered.
"I would like for you to arrest these villagers and take them to Ibiki. They will stay there for a day and then will be released." Minato ordered. "Hopefully they will learn a lesson."
Cat and Dog bowed and then took off, villagers in tow. Watching the ANBU go Minato frowned, he wanted his son to be viewed as a hero, but instead Naruto was viewed as the demon itself.
I'm so sorry Naruto. I'm sorry that I sealed the blasted Kyuubi in you. Thought Minato as he picked up Naruto and held him in a tight embrace.
"Shhh Shhh its alright." he whispers to his son, rubbing up and down his back and then rubbing his hand through his son's hair.
He felt his heart break in two as he saw Naruto looked up at him with eyes wide in fear and face full of tears. After a couple of minutes of hugging and calming his son down, Minato still holding Naruto shifted him to his hip and continued down the street, his son asleep.
Finally at the publishers Minato walked in and talked to the person in charge and a few minutes later stepped out back onto the street. Well with that done, let's get you home. Keeping a firm hold on Naruto, Minato did the hand seals for a teleportation jutsu and disappeared in a puff of smoke.
Jiraiya sat writing the finishing touches to his manuscript, the next book in the Icha Icha Paradise series. In fact he was sitting in the same bar that he got chased out of last year. What a horrible night that was.
*Flashback*
He was resting on a tree trying to catch his breath. He had been running from Kushina all night long and since he was drunk, he had a hard time running. He should really remember not to tick off Kushina. His time at the bar had started out well, but then it turned into this. He sat there hidden in the tree branches thinking back to what he could have done to deserve this.
"Heyy there pretty lady let mme buy you a drink." Jiraiya asks pouring himself more sake.
"No thank you." the woman replied.
"Then howww about you and mee take an mmmidnight walk and then get a hotell room." slurred a very drunk Jiraiya.
The woman got very angry at this and replied, "I'm happily married thank you!"
"Wwho's the lucky guy tooo have an attractive lady like youu?"
"Minato Namikaze that's who!" the woman hissed at him.
Jiraiya winched after remembering what had happened at that point and made a mental note to not drink so much. Then he remembered the second thing that had ticked her off earlier.
"I also know about the incident that took place in the hokage's tower earlier too.
How was he supposed to know that Naruto would use that jutsu in front of his father? Though it was funny. All of the sudden he heard tree branch's breaking and the next second Kushina popped out.
"HA HA HA GOT YOU NOW, DATTEBAYO!"
Unfortunately he was too tired to run away. So he gave himself up and prayed for mercy.
* Flashback End *
-Sighing- he got up and started walking towards the publishers to turn in his manuscript. Finally arriving at his destination Jiraiya walked into the small building. He walked up to the counter and slammed his manuscript down upon it to grab the attention of the lady behind the counter.
"I've got the manuscript for a new book to turn in."
The middle aged lady looked up after hearing the slamming noise and took the manuscript and looked at the top and read the title.
Icha Icha Paradise: A New and Improved Manual
"I'm sorry sir but you can't turn this material in." told the lady, who gave the manuscript back to Jiraiya.
" Why not? I've done it many times before."
"Sorry but the Icha Icha series has been banned." replied the lady, who was looking more annoyed by the minute.
Hearing the news that his series had been banned had really stunned him. Sure his series is full of adult themes, but that was no reason to ban them. Who would do such a thing? Then one person came to mind his student, who was also a huge prankster, though he needed info. to confirm his suspicions.
"Who would ban a book series?" Jiraiya asked.
"That is confidential sir."
Oh is it hmm thought Jiraiya as he suddenly summoned a toad, which grew in size before his eyes. Jiraiya then picked up the lady and stepped into the toad's mouth.
"Hey wait what are you doing!" yelled the lady and both her and Jiraiya were swallowed up by the toad.
Next Day
Rays of weak morning sunlight filtered through the curtains of a bedroom. It was quiet and peaceful as Minato slept, but as usual he was woken up early by his hyperactive bundle of sunshine bouncing on top of him. Now fully awake, Minato got out of bed and made his way to the window. He had only pulled the curtains halfway open when a shout stopped him.
"IF YOU OPEN THOSE CURTAINS YOU'LL BE HURT SO BAD THAT TSUNADE –SAMA WON'T BE ABLE TO HELP!"
"When did you get back?" he asked sitting down next to her.
"Hmm, late last night and I like to give you my mission report right now." Kushina said as she leaned closer to her husband and kissed him.
Minato returned the kiss, but they both stopped when they heard the word yuck.
"Yuck!" Naruto repeated.
Both had forgotten that Naruto was still in the room. They looked down to see Naruto's face scrunched up in a hilarious expression and started laughing.
Kushina got out of bed and went into the bathroom to get ready for the day. Minato got up and grabbed his son's ankles and lifted him into the air upside down and started blowing on his stomach, which got Naruto laughing his head off. Then Minato turned him right side up and carried him downstairs into the small kitchen.
"How about some breakfast?" Minato asked.
"Can I have some ramen?" asked Naruto.
"No but how about some oatmeal instead?" Minato replied, as he fixed up a bowl of oatmeal for himself.
"Fine." Naruto pouted when he couldn't have ramen for breakfast.
So Minato fixed Naruto a bowl and sat down to eat his meal. Minato had only took a couple of bites when a huge bang went off behind him, which made him choke and gag on his oatmeal. Kushina who was all ready for the day came running down the stairs after hearing the explosion go off.
"What is going on?" Minato asked, spraying oatmeal everywhere. Then he looked and saw Jiraiya standing behind him, clouds of smoke disappearing. "Oh, Ohayo Jiraiya-sensei."
"Ok what possessed you to play this kind of prank?" Jiraiya asked Minato.
"What prank? I've been too busy with paperwork and mission reports." replied Minato, who put on his innocent look.
"Don't go what prank because I already know that you did it."
"How?" questioned a surprised Minato.
"I tickled the lady in charged at the publishers until she told me."
"Ok Ok I did it and I'll fix everything so you can turn in your manuscript." Minato said as he finished his breakfast. "I do it after I drop Naruto off at the academy."
"You better gaki." Jiraiya said and then he was gone.
It was midday now and Minato was in his office listening to missions reports from the other teams. Three hours later he was done and made to leave when he had just schemed up another prank.
Operation: Bingo Book begins next weekend. He thought and then left to spend some time with Kushina and his son.
