Jiraiya glanced down at his newest student and couldn't help but sigh at the image that he saw.

Every time he looked at Naruto...for a moment he would see the boy's father staring back at him and every moment that happened Jiraiya felt his heart twinge.

The boy he was teaching now was so much like his father and mother...in looks...as well as attitude...

Jiraiya practically had a heart attack, which at his age isn't unusual, when he first me Naruto...

And just like his father the boy had shouted at him, calling him a perv and demanding he replace his other teacher he had knocked-out...

Naruto really had no respect for Jiraiya when they had first met...

Well, Jiraiya couldn't blame the boy...he was sitting down and staring at naked women...

Not the best first impression...

Especially on your godson...But unfortunately Naruto doesn't even know his Godfather is the one training him.

And once again, Jiraiya began to dwell on the past and once again sadness over-took him for a minute...but only a minute...

Jiraiya wouldn't allow himself more time to think back...that was then...this is now...

And now Jiraiya had a new student to train...another generation to help and to form...

He sighed again as his pupil grinned up at him adn demenstrated a new attack...making Jiraiya laugh when he missed the target...

Smiling he bent down to help the boy stand again from where he had fallen down...only to see he had fallen asleep...

Scratches and bruises covered his hands, feet and face from his training...the fool hadn't taken a break until he had gotten it right...

Lifting the boy up, Jiraiya couldn't help but notice the smile still lingering on the boy's face...

Memories came back to him again and he sighed, as he carried the boy over his shoulder back into town...

His heart and mind heavy with memories he now realized he would never be able to forget...
