Discalimer: Kira doesn't own Naruto. But kira WISHES she owned Naruto. So buy her Naruto for Christmas and she'll love you forever!
Just Watch Me
It hurt. Naruto stared out his window, deep in thought. It confused him, why was it that what the villagers did, what all the people of Konoha did, it didn't hurt half as much as when Sasuke left?
If there were two feeling that he hated most, it was helplessness and betrayal. He knew what betrayal felt like. Probably knew more than anybody. Or maybe not, after all, Jiraiya had been Orochimaru's friend once right?
Well even if Jiraiya's knowledge of betrayal rivaled his own, he definitely knew more about starting with nothing, and ending with nothing. Not that he had nothing now, he did have friends, good friends, like Sakura-chan, Lee, Gaara, Neji, Hinata, all of those who had been in the Chuunin exam that year, maybe even the sensei's too! Well, he thought, it definitely sucks when your best friend turns traitor. Stupid Orochi-baka.
Finally finishing through the process of his thoughts, he lay down, snuggled up onto his pillow, and drifted off to sleep. The next day had a lot in store for him.
Sunlight streamed into the room from the very window Naruto had stared so pensively out of the previous night. As the sunlight touched Naruto's blond hair, he turned, aggravated by the sudden intrusion. Damn and that was a good dream… getting up, he glared out the window.
"Happy? Gees can't let a guy get his beauty sleep" then immediately grinned amusedly. Watch it, if you start thinking like that too much, you'll become like Sasuke-teme! The grin died down at the thought of his friend.
Minutes later, he was out the door, running for the life of him. Oh CRAP I'm LATE!!!! I WILL NOT BECOME KAKASHI!!!! The mantra ran through his head over and over again as he ran full speed to the gates of Konoha.
"Oy, brat."
"What?! You're about to make me late for-," Naruto whipped around quickly as understanding hit him like a brick. "ERO-SENNIN?"
Jiraiya sighed. Will I ever break him of that stupid habit? "You know brat, since I'm your sensei at the moment, you should at least-"
"Aww who cares? You're still an ero-sennin, even if you're my sensei, just like Sandaime is," Naruto paused briefly, "was always my ojii-san. Anyways, back to the point: WHY ARE YOU GETTING THERE AFTER I WAS?!"
"Oh that? I overslept." Jiraiya answered simply. In truth, he had actually been talking to Tsunade. As the now official Godaime Hokage, she had the right to know which of her shinobi were in Konoha or not. Especially if that particular shinobi was named Uzumaki Naruto.
Steam practically burst out of his ears. "LIAR!! ERo-sennin!! You're almost as bad as –"
"Well Naruto, let's get going." Jiraiya turned, and began to walk off, obviously expecting Naruto to just give up on the rant and follow him already. "C'mon brat, I want to make some good miles before we break for the night."
Naruto followed hesitantly before turning, and looking over the village of Kohonagakure, for the last time in what would become three years. He was leaving for training with the Sannin, training to become the best, and hopefully, no, definitely, returning to bring the Uchiha home. Lifting his head slightly, his eyes rested on the Hokage Mountain.
Just watch me, cause one day, Naruto grinned brightly raising his fist to the head of Yondaime, it's gonna be me up there.
