Naruto's Father

Chapter One

Reaching the Memorial Stone

Disclaimer: Man, I really hate to say it, but I am not Masashi Kishimoto, although I'd love to be… sadly I am merely a 14-year-old teenager, sitting in front of my computer in Berlin, Germany… So therefore, I do (not) own Naruto….

Naruto's POV

"I'll be late for the honor ceremony!" Naruto muttered while running as fast as he could in the direction of the memorial stone. Today was the day to honor all the Hokages, especially the forth, since it was his birthday, the thirty-first of October, Halloween. So although this was Konoha, people still celebrate Halloween, it's just that they rather call it Roku Daimyo's birthday.

They will say: You are late as always Naruto, what else to expect from Mr. Lazy. Dude! Really! Can't you even be on time on a day like this? Naruto thought. With they he meant Shikamaru, Sasuke, Neiji, Kiba, Shino (although seldom), Sakura, and all those other people he considered to be his friends.

But one thing was for sure, Kakashi-sensei would be later than he was, since he was always last, or not?

Naruto ran through the chilly October night, well eventually it was early in the morning, but for the sake of Naruto's eyes, it seemed to be late at night. So he ran, and jumped, and stumbled over his feet.

"Kage-Bunshin-No-Jutsu!" he screamed while doing the proper hand sign only seconds before he kissed the ground. The bunshin got hold of the real Naruto and helped him to his feet. Woa, that was close! he thought.

Shikamaru's POV

Dude, that guy Naruto can't ever be on time, can he? Man, he's so troublesome! Why is Tsunade-sama actually waiting for him? It's not as though he was anything special. Okay, he did save Konoha a handful of times, but is that reason enough? he thought.
Tsunade's POV

Naruto, I will you, please come! Tonight's all about you, you and the father you never had… Just come, please. I can't delay the beginning of the ceremony much longer! People are questioning me on what I am waiting for, and I can't just say, the son of the forth, can I? Although I very much know that you are. Please, come! she thought.
Kakashi's POV

Naruto, even I am on time today, why aren't you? Since I am one of the few people to know the truth about tonight's ceremony, I know whom we're waiting for, Uzumaki Naruto, I will you, come! Kakashi thought.

Sakura's POV

Naruto, although I am always so mean to you, I actually like you. BUT STILL, why are you not here right now? Sakura's inner voice: Hell yeah! Where the fuck is that baka (idiot) now, and why the fuck do we actually wait! She thought.

Sasuke's POV

Usually I would say that I don't care, but in this case, I do. NARUTO WHERE THE HECK ARE YOU? Really, shouldn't I be at Orochimaru's side at the moment, no really, what am I doing here? he thought.

(A/N: I really could go on with what the other's think, but for the sake of sanity, I think it's enough…)

Naruto's POV

There, finally, the memorial stone, I reached it! Why did I not hear my alarm clock? Old hag Tsunade said that I should really, definitely be on time, and what now? God damn it! Or Shaitan bless it! he thought.

(A/N: I don't own "Shaitan bless it", it's Ryuujitsu's (falls to her knees and worships) Did I mention she's a god? Shaitan bless it is from Faust, which I don't own either.)

Naruto reached the other, who applauded, and…

End of first chapter. Review, please! Or you won't know what happens, since I then won't continue. SO PLEASE, REVIEW!
