ROCKY-SENSEI
PART TWO
AN: sorry I'm two years late on updates you see my path of life forked, I went one way only to find a black cat, so I had to turn around, then I had to help a cat get an old lady out of her tree. OK Seriously now I kept losing my muses.
D/C: I still don't own Naruto or Power Rangers, and I still am not making any money from this story.
Rocky and Jiraiya appeared before the gates of Konoha. The guards looked at Jiraiya then down at the expected arrivals list.
"Rocky DeSantos and Jiraiya of the Sannin?" Kotetsu asked bored. Jiraiya nodded as he and Rocky Shunshined into Hiruzen Sarutobi's office where they startled Hiruzen and his guest. Rocky immediately grabbed his friend in a hug.
"Kim! When did you get here?" Rocky asked his equally happy friend.
"A couple months ago I ran into some guy trouble, and met up with Jiraiya there. After taking care of the situation he brought me here. I took over teaching Tai-jutsu at the academy. Hokage-Sama told me he wanted you to take over custody of Naruto Uzumaki, and I decided to greet you when you came here." Kim said with a smile at her friend.
"I didn't know I was going to be his guardian, I thought I was just going to be his mentor, is his situation that bad?" Rocky asked. Hiruzen exchanged glances with Kim and Jiraiya.
"Naruto is the Jinchuriki of the Kyubi, unfortunately most of the Civilians and roughly half of the Shinobi force sees him as the Kyubi, most stores and restaurants won't let him in. And those that do sell him low quality stuff at high prices. I fear that most of his teachers are holding him back." Hiruzen said in a sad voice.
"Can't you do anything about it?" Rocky asked feeling bad for his new ward.
"Unfortunately his hands are tied up because the civilian Council and Danzo, and Homura are stopping him at every turn. The only ones trying to help are Koharu and the Shinobi Council." Kim said picking up where Hiruzen left off. After thinking about it Rocky came to a decision.
"Alright I'll do it, but Naruto and I will need a place to stay" Rocky said.
Hiruzen smirked as he got up and went over to a hidden Cabinet and pulled out a Flak Vest, as well as a Konoha Hitai-ate, which he noticed Kim wearing the same things over her Dark Blue Shinobi outfit.
"I Hiruzen Sarutobi, officially instate you Rocky DeSantos, into the Konoha Shinobi Ranks as Tokubetsu Jonin" Hiruzen said then stamping some paperwork.
"You and Naruto can stay with me, and my Ward Sasuke" Kim said happy for her friend. "I'll explain about Sasuke later" Kim said seeing the look on her friends face.
"I would also like you to be Iruka Umino's Teacher's Assistant, replacing his former TA" Hiruzen stated Rocky nodded.
"Anything I should be aware of?" Rocky asked. Just then Iruka entered with a trussed up blonde in a orange jumpsuit and whisker like scars on his cheeks, and expressive blue eyes. Iruka stopped short at seeing the Hokage was busy.
"Sorry for interrupting Hokage-Sama, but Naruto decided that it was a good idea to try and put itching powder in the ANBU Masks again, He was stopped after putting some in the T&I ANBU" Iruka said somewhat exasperated with his pseudo brother. Kim giggled out loud.
"Iruka meet your new assistant Rocky DeSantos, he is also Naruto's new guardian" Hiruzen said failing to keep his amusement out of his voice.
"Unless you need anything else Sensei, I need to grab my scroll from Adam I forgot it." Jiraiya said then Shunshined out after Hiruzen nodded.
"Jiji I don't need a guardian, I've done just fine without one for twelve years." Naruto said petulantly with his arms crossed and a cute pout on his face. He had gotten out of the ropes while the adults were talking.
'I like him already' Rocky thought then kneeled down to Naruto. He frowned when he noticed just how short Naruto was.
"Just think you get to live with at least two awesome Shinobi, who can help you on your way to greatness, but if you would rather not I guess I can find someone else who is willing to learn." Rocky said the last part dramatically. Naruto took the bait naturally.
"Seriously you will help me?!" Naruto asked excitedly then thought of something.
"Who are we living with?" Naruto asked scratching the back of his head, he hadn't noticed his second favorite teacher trying to hide her amusement. Kimberly laughed letting him know of her presence.
"You and Rocky are staying with me, you better go home and start packing your stuff" Kim said to one of her favorite students. Naruto nodded then grabbed Iruka and proceeded to drag him off to help him pack.
Rocky shook his head amused at his new students antics before turning to his new commanding officer. Hiruzen motioned for his hidden ANBU guards to come forwards, the one with the gravity defying silver hair with the dog mask stepped forward.
"Inu I want you four to go and help Naruto pack his apartment up and bring it over to Ms. Harts place." Kakashi nodded and hid his smile behind his mask as he motioned for his team to follow him as he went to Naruto's apartment. He was glad that his Sensei's son was finally going to be taken care of.
After the ANBU left, Rocky asked Hiruzen a question. "Is Naruto aware of his Special Status?" Hiruzen shook his head. "I made it forbidden to speak of the Kyubi being inside of Naruto, to the younger generation hoping to at least grant Naruto some semblance of a normal Childhood, unfortunately, though the adults couldn't speak of the Kyubi being in Naruto. Their hatred spread to the younger generation. You have my permission to tell him." Hiruzen said.
Just then Enma appeared, causing Hiruzen to jump at seeing his old friend and Summon. Usually he doesn't appear unless summoned.
"Enma what brings you here?" Hiruzen asked his summon. Enma approached Rocky, and looked deep into his eyes.
"Hiruzen, This young mans totem animal is an ape please have him sign the summoning contract" Enma spoke at once, his old master Ninjor (whom the Elemental Nations called the Sage of Six paths) raved to him and his five other main Ninjetti totem animal bosses about the six Warriors of Good Power that renewed his faith in humanity.
Hiruzen then went to his portrait, lifted it off the wall, then bit his thumb and smeared his blood on the seal. After the poof of smoke disappeared he reached in and pulled out two scrolls, one with a crane wax seal, and the other with an ape. He handed the Crane one to Kimberly, and the Ape to Rocky.
"I have a feeling that the Crane belongs to Kimberly right?" Hiruzen asked as Rocky signed the scroll in his blood.
"Yes she was going to visit Kimberly in her dreams tonight." Enma said before disappearing with a poof. Kimberly looked confused, Hiruzen explained about summons and how to sign the contract. After following Rocky's example they decided to work on summoning after helping Naruto settle in.
"See you two later keep me updated on Naruto's progress" Hiruzen said then looked at his remaining paperwork.
"You should use a Kage Bunshin" Kimberly suggested as she picked up her scroll, and Rocky handed the Ape scroll back to Hiruzen, who placed it back in his safe. Hiruzen blinked owlishly at her then sighed.
"Can't there are seals in this room and on this desk that strictly prohibits the use of any jutsus that would make this job easier. Hashirama-Sensei was strict when it came to Hokage duties." Hiruzen then sat down at his desk and got back to work, clearly dismissing them.
Rocky and Kimberly then left via Shunshin to her Four Bedroom two story house by the Hyuuga district. Sasuke greeted them at the door with his arms crossed and an easy going smirk on his face. Kimberly-Sensei is easily his favorite Sensei, and the only adult who seemed to genuinely care about him the person and not The last Uchiha. She was also fair to his only real friend his age, Naruto Uzumaki.
"Sasuke Uchiha meet Rocky DeSantos one of my best friends and one of our two new Room Mates" Kimberly said with a smile to her ward. Sasuke looked the tall brunette over critically then nodded to himself.
"So I take it Naruto is the other one right?" Sasuke asked hoping it was true, Naruto more than anyone needed help. Sure Sasuke wanted to gain power to avenge his clan, but being around Naruto constantly and living with Kimberly-Sensei has taught him that the path of revenge can only lead to self destruction.
"Yep he, Iruka-Sensei, and four ANBU, should be around with his things in a couple hours. So I need the two extra rooms cleaned out for when they arrive" Kimberly answered as they entered her house to find it tastefully decorated in earth tones. The first floor has a medium sized kitchen, living room, dining room, small bathroom with just a toilet and sink, and a study which Kim entered and but her new scroll in a safe with blood seals on it that held her valuables from her time as a Power Ranger.
Sasuke led him up the stair where the en suite bedrooms and bathrooms were. Sasuke pointed to the two on the left. "The first one is mine, the second one is Kimberly-Sensei's room, the other two are for you and Naruto" Rocky chose the room opposite of Kimberly's.
A half hour later, Naruto, Iruka and the four ANBU showed up, after greeting Sasuke like usual Naruto got his room set up. After Dinner, Rocky and Kim set him and Sasuke down to talk. Naruto looked down sad when he was told about Kyubi, Sasuke took one of his hands and gave it a squeeze.
"So I am a demon." Naruto said hollowly.
"Naruto what happened twelve years ago was not your fault, if anyone is to blame it is Kyubi." Kim said as she gathered the blond prankster in her arms.
"Kim is right, some things are beyond anyone's control, all you can do is choose how you want to deal with it. Now it is time for you two to go to bed." Rocky said, grumbling Naruto and Sasuke went up to bed.
"Lets go and try summoning our animals." Kim said as she and Rocky went outside unaware that they were being followed by Naruto and Sasuke.
Kim and Rocky were able to summon their boss animals on the first try. Sasuke and Naruto hid as they went by.
"did you see those hand seals?" Naruto asked Sasuke.
"Sure did lets give it a try." Sasuke replied as one they each repeated the signs they saw.
What they did not know was that, if you try summoning without a contract you get taken to the Summoning world. Naruto and Sasuke appeared in a mysterious temple in front of a blue ninja.
"You must be Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha, welcome to my temple!" Ninjor said in a mysterious voice.
"Um are we in trouble?" Naruto asked scratching the back of his head.
"Um who are you?" Sasuke asked as he was curious.
