Which Bachelorette?

Dedicated to: Mint Pizza Queen. You've consistently reviewed stories on my request without even initially knowing the level of my writing talent. Also you have an infectious enthusiasm that I love. Thank you.

Special Thank You: To m.t.dog who became a regular reviewer after reviewing my FMA drabble series 'Brother'. You came just last week when I started my pairing experiment with FMA characters (see my profile for details) and even checked out Naruto fics for me when I asked. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it.

Thank You: To all those who've reviewed my Naruto fics. Even the first one, which was a poem, that kind of sucked. My Naruto fics are MUCH better now and thank you all for reviewing them.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.

Prologue

Naruto Uzamaki stood in front of the mansion and smiled. He was glad that he had signed a contract for this new Japanese show. Ever since the drought in the need for ninjas, lots of ninjas were going broke. Naruto was already there. He was basically sleeping on Sasuke, Kakashi, or Juriya's couch. Well in Sasuke's case he got a bed. But if he pissed the Uchiha off, he was sentenced to the couch.

But now he had the joy of living off half a million yen. He'd get the other half after the end of the show. His job and purpose on the show was simple. Every week he'd associate with the girls for three days, have a date with three 'special' girls for one day, deliberate for two days, then on the final day he gets to talk to each girl for up to half an hour (this part doesn't air on the show), then in the night he'd eliminate one of them. The exception being the show's premiere where he'd meet the girls and eliminate one of them the following day.

Naruto walked up to the executive producer Mr. Chin.

"Ah, Naruto," Mr. Kin Chin said happily, "welcome," he said.

"Thank you Chin-sama," Naruto said and bowed respectfully.

"Well you're a respectful young man," Mr. Chin said pleased, "but I like being called Mr. Chin," he added.

"Oh, okay," Naruto agreed, "so what now, Mr. Chin," he asked.

"Well it's three months now since we gave you the half million yen," Mr. Chin said, "and tomorrow you'll get to meet the girls," he told Naruto who beamed, "but for today you get to enjoy this beautiful mansion.

Naruto grinned from ear to ear.

This is the best thing ever, Naruto thought.

Sasuke sat down and turned on the television set. His house and even Konoha had gotten quiet since Naruto left a month ago.

At first after winning the money Naruto was very giving. Giving over quarter of it to Konoha to help it's financing. Paying back the three males who each took him in on different occasions. Just lots of kind things. But it took less than a month for the money to get to Naruto's head. The twenty year old soon acted as if he owned the place. While Naruto got mostly put in his place, but things were still tense between him and the village when he left a month before the show was to start. Sasuke hoped the prick would learn his lesson.

As he flipped through the stations he saw a TV guide show channel and decided to check it out. They were talking about shows coming in the week. They had just started on Thursday's line up.

"And on the new channel Konichiwa Triple L there's a new show called 'Which Bachelorette?' staring a handsome young man," the female host said, "want to know more?" she asked almost flirtatiously, "well we'll show you with this preview right now!" she declared.

The screen darkens then lights up on a beautiful mansion with a swimming pool in the front, along with a few trees and other beautiful things.

"In this house."

"Thirteen girls will come."

The male voice stops and the scene changes to a row of girls standing at a bus stop hidden from their shoulders up appeared.

"All beautiful, all different, all…wait, I haven't shown you the bachelor yet."

The scene changes and slowly goes to a grinning blonde in a black suit.

"Hi I'm Naruto Uzamaki," Naruto spoke, "and I'm the eligible bachelor in 'Which Bachelorette?'" he said happily.

"Naruto?" Sasuke asked incredulously.

The screen suddenly froze on the happy Naruto.

"But wait, there's more."

There is rewinding and the image of the girl's reappear.

"Remember this row of lovely females?"

"Lovely aren't they?"

"It's so sweet that seven of these females are really guys."

Suddenly there was the background sound of screeching tires.

"Yes seven of these lovely beauties are really guys."

"No not transsexual or gender bending guys, real guys."

"And to sweeten the deal, Naruto doesn't even know about it."

Sasuke fell out of his seat laughing.

"Yes, Naruto Uzamaki doesn't know that seven of the 'girls' he'll be serenading are really men."

"He won't be told until after the first elimination which is the day after tomorrow amd like all eliminations will be held live for you the viewing audience."

Sasuke turned the TV off. He was about to become the first person he knew to die from laughing too much.
