ItaNaru Beauty and the Beast

Chapter one: Naruto

It was a lovley morning in a small village when a young man stepped out of his house to run some errends.

This young man was very attractive:

Blond hair stuck up in spikes on top of his head, shinning blue eyes were lit with a peaceful happiness. His skin was sunkissed and whisker like marks were on his efeminate cheeks giving him a slight more exotic appearance.

He wore a simple light blue kimono-like shirt that stopped just below his hips,and simple black pants. But it only enhanced his good looks.

His name was Naruto.

Some birds flew around him a bit.

As he entered into town he felt a little song in his mind.

Little town it's a quiet village.
Everyday like the one before.
Little town full of little people,'
Waking up to say...

Ohayou!

A man with brown hair in a ponytale and a scar on his nose, popped out suddenly at the blonds appearance.
Ohayou!

Another man with brown hair also in spikes and triangular marks on his cheeks popped out. A little white dog also appeared at the window and barked at Nauto.

Ohayou!

A woman with wavey brown hair and red eyes was beating the dust out of her rug.

Ohayou!

A man who was cleaning a chiminey popped out. His hair was black and spikey, and he had a beard. (I'm not sure if ciggaretes were invented in that time.)

Ohayou!

A younger man in the stocks with hair in a black ponytail and a lazy expression on his face mearly nodded.

Naruto nodded at each of them and procede to look ahead he saw a fat man with swirls on his cheeks carrying a tray of bread.

There goes the baker with his tray like Always.
The same old bread and rolls to sell.

Every morning just the same,
Since the morning that we came,
To this poor, provincial town.

"Ohayou Naruto." Naruto looked up with a smile and made his way to the bakers shop. "Ohayou Choji."

"Where you off to?"

"The book shop. I just finished the most wonderful story: About a Man and a Prince and a Genie and..." Choji nodded and cut him off. "That's nice. SHIZUNE! The baggetes hurry up!"

Naruto shrugged and contunued on.
Some random old ladies gossiped.

Look there he goes that boy is strange,
No question.

Dazed and distracted can't you tell?
Naruto continued along failing to notice a boy with spikey black hair and goggle like things on his head, getting chased by a pig.

An old woman with some grey hair poking out of her hat sipped some tea and watched the blond boy pass. Along side her was an equaly old man whose huge, white, eyebrows came down to his cheeks.

Never part of any crowd,

And old man with white hair and beard was trimming the hair of a younger man with spikey brown hair and redish purple marks painted on his face.

Cause his head's upon some cloud.
No deniying he's a funny boy Naurto.

Naruto jumped on a carrage being driven by a man with black spikey hair whose coller came up to his nose and sunglasses over his eyes. He waved to a young woman with blond hair in four pigtails and teal colored eyes.
"Ohayou." "Good day."
"How is your family?"

The carrage passed by the butcher's shop where a pretty young woman with long black hair was buying som meat from the butcher who has slicked back silver hair and purplish eyes. Behind him a woman with blue hair looked at him disdainfully.

"Ohayou." "Good day."
"How is your wife?"

The woman hit the man on the back of the head with a rolling pin. Naruto laughed a bit.

A random woman with many children tried to buy some eggs.

"I need six eggs."

A random man tried selling a pot to a man.

"That's too expensive."

Naruto shook his head and got off the carrage.

There must be more than this provicial Life!

He finaly enterd his destanation: The book shop. A man with silver hair and a dark blue mask over one eye looked up from the orange book he was reading.

"Ah Naruto-kun."

"Ohayou Kakashi-kun. I've come to return the book I borrowed."

Kakashi's visible eye widened. "Finished already?" He asked amused. Naruto went to the book shelf and started to look around.

"I couldn't put it down. It was so good.
Have you got anything new?"

Kakashi shook his head as he put the book down. "Not since yesterday."

"That's okay. I'll borrow, this one."

Naruto handed him a particular book.
Kakashi looked at it.

"That one? But you've already read it twice."

Naruto laughed a bit. "It's my favorite.
Far off places, daring sword fights, magic spells, male lovers. It's as much my favorite as much as the "Icha Icha" series is your favorite." Naruto laughed a bit slyly.

Kakashi frowned, sighed, then chuckled a bit. "Well if you like it that much, you can have it."

Naruto looked at him surprised.
"But Kakashi-kun..."

"I insist."

Naruto smiled. "Well thanks alot kun."
Waving, Naruto continued to run his errands opening the book and reading it. He didn't notice the men outside the shop looking at him. A long, blond haired man, a short red haired man and a man with long brown hair.

Look there he goes that boy is so peculiar,
I wonder if he's feeling well.

Naruto walked through the town, he jumped a bit as some kids were playing jump rope.
He rubbed the head of a small girl with reddish hair that stuck up a bit oddly.

With a dreamy faroff look.

A random woman poured some water down a drain pipe. It would have splashed him had he not pushed a shop sign in the way.

And her nose stck in a book.

What a puzzel to the rest off us is Naruto.

Naruto was in the town square and he sat on the fountain edge. Some sheep passed by.

Oh isn't this amazing?
It's my favorite part because,
You'll see.

Hears where he meets Prince charming.
But he won't discover that it's him.
Till chapter three.

Naruto showed his book to a couple of the sheep. Naruto saw in his mind the picture of a Prince in diguise meeting a young boy.
One of the sheep tore the page a bit at the corner, not enoough to have ripped of some of the words, but Naruto still held up his finger in a scolding like manner.
He flipped the page and then the sheep hearder: A man with his head bound in a cloth and dark, round sunglasses on his face chased after the sheep who had fled when they saw him coming.

Now it's no wonder that his name means Beauty

(Fish cake dosn't cut it. Pretend that's what "Naruto" means for this fic.)

His looks have got no paralel.

A particularly fat woman was in a wig shop trying on what seemed to be a hat. She suddenly whipped it off and a bald head was in place of the black haired wig.
A person who had very efeminate features,
you almost couldn't tell he was a boy,
looked at her.

But behind that fair facade,
I'm afraid he's rather odd. Very different from the rest of us.

Naruto stepped around some men who were working. In the sky some ducks flew over head. An arrow came out of nowhere and one of the ducks suddenly fell from the sky.
A young man with silver hair, glasses and a purple colored kimono tunic ran with a bag and caught it.

"You didn't miss a shot Orochimaru-sama. you are the greatest hunter in the whole world."

"I know Kabuto." With a hiss like voice, Orochimaru flexed his bow. He was a pail man with long black hair and yellowish eyes. Purple markings were at the inner corners. He was handsome in a sense but somthing about him made you think of a snake. He wore a light tan colored Kimono that came to his knees, a dark purple sash, and dark colored pants.

"No beast alive could possibly stand a chance against you. And no girl or boy for that matter." Kabuto said admiringly.

"It's true Kabuto-kun. And I have my sights set on that one." He pointed over to a young blond man reading a book and picking up a few things. Kabuto snorted. "The inventor's son?"

"He's the one. The lucky boy I'm going to marry."

"But he's..."

"The most beautiful one in town."

"I know but..."

"That makes him the best. And don't I deserve the best Kabuto-kun?"

"Well yes Orochimaru-sama, but."

Orochimaru ignored him and stared at Naruto.

Right from the moment when I met him,
Saw him,
I said he's gorgeous and I fell.
Here in town there's only he,
Who is beautiful as me,
So I'm making plans to woo,
And marry Naruto.

Naruto had just paid the woman for her goods and left reading his book.
He passed Orochimaru without glancing up.
Orochimaru was staring at his reflection to notice. When he looked up to glance at Naruto once again, he saw that he had dissapeared. He looked around for the blond then saw him walking through the street.
Orochimaru started to follow.
He then passed a small water spout thing,
that three redhed girls were crowded around. Their names were Tayuya, Karin, and Aka .(Random oc girl could not think of another good redhead to use.) They saw Orochimaru and their eyes lit up.

Look there he goes,
Isn't he dreamy?
Orochimaru oh he's so cute.
Kabuto approached the girls and leaned on the pump as though to impress the girls.
Aka accidently pushed on the lever thing and water got on Kabuto's pants. (lol)
He scoweld and followed Orochimaru, his chin turned up in a dignified way.
The girls didn't even notice.

Be still my heart.
I'm hardly breathing.
He's such a tall, dark, strong, and Handsome brute

Orochimaru pushed through the crowed which had really built up. People were shouting things. Naruto wove in and out of the crowd, not really paying attention.
Orochimaru on the other hand kept getting blocked.

Ohayou.

You call this duck?
What lovely peaches.
Ten yards.

Excuse me.
I'll get my knife.

Please let me through.
This bread,
Those fish,

It's stale.
They smell. Your mistaken.
Naruto looked up from his book.

There must be more than this provincial Life!

Orochimaru held up his hand in declaration.

Just watch, I'm going to make Naruto my Wife!
(lover really)

The people crowded in front of him, completly cutting him of from Naruto.

Look there he goes that boy is strange,
But special.
A most peculiar young man.

Orochimaru, seeing he could not get through, climbed a roof to try and get closer to Naruto who was just walking out of the village on his way home.

It's a pity and a sin,
He dosn't quite fit in.
But he really is a funny boy,
A beauty but a funny boy,
He really is a funny boy,
Naruto.

The village had crowded to see Naruto.

Ohayou!
Ohayou!
Ohayou!
Ohayou!
Ohayou!
Ohayou!

Naruto looked up with the feeling he was being watched, he looked around and the people went back to normal. Naruto shrugged and continued his walk home. A figure dropped next to him.

"Konichiwa, Naruto-chan."

Naruto just barely glanced up.

"Ohayou Orochimaru."

Naruto just continued to walk and read.
He suddenly felt his book get swiped from his fingers. Naruto looked up annoyed.

"Orochimaru, can I have my book back please?" He tried to take it back but Orochimaru held it out of arms reach.
The dark haired flipped through the pages.

"How can you read this? There's no pictures."

Naruto sighed.

"Well some people have and use their imaginations."

Orochimaru looked at the younger boy.
He waved the book, then threw it in a mud puddle, Naruto ran to retrive it but Orochimaru stood in the way.

"Naruto-chan it's about time you got your head out of those books and paid attention to more important things. Like me.
The whole town is saying how odd it is for you to be reading. It's not right."

The redhed Oro-club sighed dreamily.
Naruto picked up the book and wiped the

"Oh really? Well thanks but I'll pass,
even though you are the strongest and most handsome man in the village." Naruto rolled his eyes sarcasticly. Orochimaru chuckled and grabbed the book again.

"Why thank you my little fox. What do you say we take a walk over to the tavern and take a look at my trophies."

He put an arm around Naruto and led him to the tavern. The blond tried to grab his book back.

"Mabey some other time."

They passed the three girls who looked at Naruto with looks of envy and confusion.

"What's wrong with him?" Tayuya said.

"He's crazy." Karin noted.

Aka had a dreamy expression. "He's gorgeous." She said breathless. The other girls nodded and just stared at Orochimaru.

Naruto pulled away. "Please, Orochimaru I can't, I have to get home and help my Otou-san. Sayonara."

Kabuto walked up to Orochimaru's side.

"That crazy old pervert? He needs all the help he can get."

Orochimaru laughed then looked up at Naruto's annoyed voice.

"Don't talk about about my Otou-san that way!"

"Yes Kabuto, don't talk about his Otou-san that way!" He glared at Kabuto.

Naruto glared at the two men. "My Outo-san's not crazy! He's a genius!"

An explosion was heard and Naruto turned to see smoke was coming from his house. Worried Naruto ran to his house leaving behind a laughing Orochimaru and Kabuto.

Haha, This chapter is acctualy a game, "Name that Character!" exept for those "random characters" name the ones with the discription.

BTW, I could have used Kushina but just thinking about Kushina liking Orochimaru? YUCK!I don't think she'd be qualified as a full "Mary-sue," but you could consider her one. Be glad she's usless. "Aka" means red just so you know.

And it featurs a referance to my ItaNaru Aladdin fanfic ;)
