For those of you who have read my on fanfics I hope you enjoy my first Naruto fanfic. I have been planning for it for a while but could never bring myself to actually writting it until I got a new laptop and now all I do is write write write! WOOT!
So enjoy. Hells yes!
Laughter echoed through the village of Konoha. The sun was shining and a light, sweet, earthy smelling breeze drifted through that Naruto couldn't help but notice. His nostrils twitched and he rolled over, nearly falling off the thick branch he was napping on. Quickly he scrambled to release chakra and attach himself to the truck before falling.
He was supposed to be scouting, upon Jiraya's orders, but dozed off to the apparent lack of activity. He wasn't complaining though. Why? Because he had been given the entire day off and got a nap out of it.
Naruto re-perched himself on the branch and stared in the direction of the northern gate. The sun was setting now, the sky turning a mix of purples and pinks over head. The subtle cawing of crows and the pitter patter of little forest creatures scurrying to their dens could be hear in surround sound. Every little sound was amplified during this time of day, the time when everything seemed to stand still.
Nothing, he murmured to himself, what did Jiraya expect me to find out here besides squirrels?
He spat, finally fed up with waiting and decided that he had better things to do than wait. What was his mentor thinking? Was this patience training of some kind? Naruto was never big on patience.
As he turned to leave faint sounds caught his ear. He frowned and squinted towards the northern gate again and put a hand to his brow.
Coming into view were two silhouettes, one taller than the other by about a centimeter. Naruto squinted further, now leaning dangerously forward on the branch. They were walking straight for the gate, so they couldn't have been invaders right? Naruto wasn't exactly sure about what he should do at this point. Jiraya had said to watch the gate and call him if anything turns up but never said what to do until he got there.
With a sigh and some hesitation Naruto pushed the button on his ear piece and made sure that the mic was in an audible position, "Jiraya." He said softly. There was no answer so he said it more forcefully, "Jiraya!"
"Wha…Naruto?" the voice coming from the other side sounded dreamy, maybe even stupefied.
Naruto frowned and resisted the urge to scream into his two-way, "Were you sleeping Jiraya?"
"No, no. I was mearly," he paused, "Napping."
Naruto sighed, it's not like he expected anything else from his sensei. He slowly picked the mic back up to his mouth and began talking again, "There are two people heading towards the Northern gate." He stopped talking when Jiraya gave a small gruff, "Is that why you put me on lookout today? Huh?"
There was a long moment of silence between the two before Jiraya responded, "Yes. Naruto."
"Yeah?"
"Do not engage."
Naruto's eyes grew big, "Are they enemies to the village? There's only two, I can take them."
Jiraya yelled, "Do not engage. Keep watching and if they stop at the gate inform them that I am one my way."
"Do you know them, Jiraya?" he inquired. It would have been a reasonable explination considering how Jiraya travels so much.
Before he could get an answer, Jiraya must have turned his two-way off, sending static through Naruto's headset.
He groaned and ripped the earpiece off, letting it dangled on his shoulder. He turned back to the two figures coming close to the gate.
Do not engage.
So here's the intro. I'm hoping to be updating this fic alot more than my other ones.
Hehe.
PS. This is an a fic with new characters that I made up. So... yeah,
