i should mention that this is a just-for-fun story and i will probably not update this as often as my other stories.
Disclaimer: I own nothing. No characters. Poor me...
Sasuke groaned. How in the world had Kiba managed to get BACK STAGE PASSES??? He wanted to go home, not stay here with the babbling idiot. And to make things worse, Kiba had mangaed to not only get back stage passes, but to sneak his dog in as well. His dog. Akamaru barked happily and Rasengan petted the white dog tiredly.
"Do you know what the song was for? You probably know, considering that you seem like a loyal fan." Rasengan smiled at Kiba, who nodded proudly. Sasuke, on the other hand, shook his head. He frowned when Rasengan glanced down at Akamaru. "You remind me of my old dog, boy." Rasengan sat up slowly and tilted his head onto his hands. Next to him, the other red-head was laying on the couch, holding a jar of sand. The other two members of the band were looking through a mini-fridge. Chattering happily with them was Ino, a blonde girl who Sasuke and Kiba recognized from school. She was well-known. When Chakra Flow needed a female singer, Ino was chosen because of her voice and connection---Kyuubi was her cousin and manager for Chakra Flow.
"Rasengan, want some food?" Ino asked.
"Nah, I'll eat later." Rasengan called back. He looked at Sasuke. "Since you don't know, I'll tell you. Lemme see, I'm seventeen...when I was about four, our town was attacked. Simple as that."
"Is that all?" Rasengan shrugged.
"All I'm gonna say. I don't like talking about it much." Akamaru, deciding that Rasengan wasn't giving him enough attention, jumped onto Kyuubi when the red-head sat down next to Rasengan.
"Ah, Akamaru! Down boy!"
"Stupid Kyuubi, what's with you and dogs!" Rasengan and Sasuke got up at the same time, Sasuke grabbing for Akamaru and Rasengan for his manager. They knocked heads and both fell to the floor. Kiba flushed.
"AH! I'm really sorry!" Kyuubi laughed.
"It's good. Rasengan, maybe it's time for you to go home. Get some sleep." Rasengan obeyed and walked towards the door shakily.
"Ja ne, Chakra Flow crew, Ino, Kyuubi. Maybe I'll see you two at another concert sometime?" Waving over his shoulder, Rasengan walked out. Kyuubi smiled at the two boys.
"Maybe you two should get going as well?" They nodded and Sasuke stood up. Kiba and Sasuke followed Rasengan out the door. "Oh, Sasuke?" Sasuke turned.
"Hm?"
"Naruto says hi. He feels bad that he hasn't seen you at all." Sasuke shrugged.
"It's all good. See you later, Kyuubi." Kyuubi waved, then joined the two boys and Ino by the mini-fridge.
Sasuke rubbed his eyes as he walked toward his window. He and Kiba hadn't gotten home until about 11:45, and he was pretty tired. Frowning, Sasuke followed the path of a figure wearing a black sweater walking up to the house next door. The figure pulled off the hood, revealing blonde hair and Sasuke smirked. Naruto. Said blonde looked up towards Sasuke's window and waved, smiling brightly when he noticed Sasuke in the window. Sasuke waved back and Naruto walked into the house. Checking the time---12:36---Sasuke sighed and sat down, getting ready to do his homework.
Naruto walked into the house, yawning lightly.
"Kyuu---bi..." Naruto called softly. Shaking his head when Kyuubi didn't answer, Naruto figured that the red-head was still with Ino at work. Naruto walked into the kitchen and opened the refridgerator, looking for something to eat.
"NA---RU---TO!" Kyuubi jumped on the younger boy. Naruto jumped about five feet. "Where were you, young man?"
"Out. Geez, Kyuubi, don't scare me like that!" Naruto scolded, pushing the older red-head off of him. "Honestly."
"Out WHERE, Naruto?"
"Just out, jeez! Seeing people. You know, friends?"
"Naruto, I got home about an hour ago, and when I come home late, I expect my younger brother home before me. Understand?" Naruto made a 'yea, yea' gesture. "Naruto!"
"I know, I know, Kyuubi! Sorry, I won't do it again, promise!" Naruto rolled his eyes. "Do we have any ramen?"
"No, I didn't buy anymore." Naruto's eyes went wide.
"EEEHHHHH? Why not?"
"It's not healthy for you, and you eat it about six times a day!"
"What's your point?"
"Eat healthier!" Naruto groaned. Kyuubi smiled sweetly. "Sorry, outouto." Sticking his tongue out, Naruto dug through the refridgerator. "By the way, Naruto..."
"Kyuubi..." Naruto said warningly, turning to look at the elder. "What have you done?"
"Nothing...it's because Chakra Flow won't be moving for a while---"
"What, no new gigs?"
"No, this is the last one for at least a year. Hopefully."
Sasuke had been doing his homework for about twenty minutes when something hit him. He looked at the house next door, which he could see clearly from his window, and frowned. Naruto and Kyuubi have lived next door for about two years, and he had never seen Naruto at school. It's true, Konoha High had a lot of classes, but the school itself wasn't really that big. The upper and lower campus was about the same size, and there were only four exits out of the school---one by the PE lockers, one by the ampetheater, one by the library, and one in the way back, by the science classes. The one by the science classes was for teachers only, though, and the one by the PE lockers was for the senior students. So the only entrance/exit are the ones by the office and ampetheater. It didn't bother Sasuke that he hadn't seen Naruto, but it made him wonder how the blonde was getting his education---surely Kyuubi was too busy, being Chakra Flow's manager and all. Sasuke pondered it for all of two minutes before returning to his work.
"What do you mean, hopefully?" Naruto asked, trying to keep the panic out of his voice as he tried to comprehend what the red-head was talking about. "Kyuubi?"
"Well, you've been improperly educated, because we've move around so much on account of Chakra Flow. So, starting tomorrow, you are enrolled in Konoha High!" Silence, pure silence, until....
"KYUU---BI---!!!!!" Kyuubi grinned, waving.
"Good luck, baby brother!"
"It's time to get up, baby brother!" Kyuubi called, running in, jumping, and landing on the pile of blankets that was Naruto Uzumaki.
"OOF! Kyuubi, get off." Naruto mumbled. Most kids have an alarm clock, a normal one that they can throw across the room when it wakes them up too early to shut it up. Naruto's alarm clock not only would not shut up, but if he threw it, it would come back at him. With a vengence.
"Nope, gotta get up little brother!" Kyuubi grinned, pulling the covers off of Naruto. "Sasuke's here to go to school with you."
Sasuke stood in Naruto's living room, looking around. This was the first time he had been in Naruto's house, let alone seen Kyuubi. Whenever Naruto hung out at his house (always, always, ALWAYS for twenty minutes maximum), Kyuubi had never come over to personally pick up the blonde, just called his cell phone.
Speaking of which, Kyuubi had gone upstairs ten minutes ago to wake up Naruto. The red-head walked back downstaris, looking happy.
"He'll be down in a minute Sasuke. You're the same age, right? So you'll show him around, right?" Sasuke, eyes wide, nodded at Kyuubi.
THUD!
"Ow......NO! Nononononononononononononononononononon---" CRASH! "Darn it...."
"What was that?" Kyuubi whirled around, yelling up the stairs.
"AH!" Naruto came flying down the stairs, backpack on his shoulders, hair flying wildly. "Nothing! Let's go, Sasuke, before we're late!" Before Sasuke could protest, Naruto grabbed his arm and pulled him out of the house. "Bye, Kyuubi!"
"Uh...." Sasuke sighed and shook his head as Naruto ran...face-first into the black car. "Don't dent Itachi-nii's car, moron."
"Hehehe...." Naruto rubbed the back of his head. "Sorry..." Sasuke just shook his head.
"Just get in the car."
"NA---RU---TO---!!!!" Naruto jumped about five feet.
"Kyuubi's found what I've broken! Let's go!" Sasuke opened the door and Naruto flew in, grabbing the back of Sasuke's shirt and pulling the other boy in.
