Hey everyone! It's Brandon and I'm back with another chapter. I just wanted to thank you all so much for reading the story. Stay fresh!
Disclaimer: The following is a non-profit, fan based story. I don't own Naruto, but it'd be cool if this story was used for reals.
Chapter 1: Enter, Boruto Uzumaki!
Konohagakure. The Village Hidden in the Leaves. One of the Five Great Shinobi Villages, and home, to one of the strongest, most unpredictable, ninja to ever live...
"Ha! Can't catch me!"
...and his son.
"Boruto, give that back!"
It was a day like any other. The people of Konohagakure were spending their day like normal. The civilians hung around the village shops (including the ever so popular Ichiraku Ramen), the children played and ran together, and the Shinobi trained. Well except for one group of Shinobi...
"Boruto! I'm not playing! Give me the scroll!"
These four ninja weren't exactly the most... serious. The self proclaimed "coolest" member of the team was Boruto Uzumaki, the son of the Seventh Hokage and a notorious prankster.
"Sorry Big Bro Konohamaru, but you're gonna have to try harder than that!"
Konohamaru Sarutobi, the grandson of the Third Hokage and the group's teacher.
"Boruto! Ugh. Sarada? A little, um, help here?"
Sarada Uchiha, daughter of the last Uchiha, and strict rule enforcer.
"Really Sensei? You can't even get one scroll from Boruto? How'd you become a Jönin?"
"You're cruel! Mitsuki! Don't you wanna help your poor sensei?"
Mitsuki, mysterious boy from Otogakure, the Hidden Sound Village.
"I'm sorry sensei, but before you and Boruto began to spar, you instructed us not to intervene."
"Does that really apply now?" he asked.
Yes, these four ninja were probably the most dysfunctional, craziest team in the village. They were loud.
"BORUTO!"
Disrespectful.
"You're too slow, Big Bro!"
Unprofessional.
"Both of you are such idiots!"
But no matter their faults, they were a good, strong team. They shared bonds, and they would fight for each other. That is what made Team 7.
"When I catch you I'm gonna rip you limb from limb!" Konohamaru yelled.
You know, when, uh they weren't trying to kill each other.
Boruto kept his distance from Konohamaru easily, especially since he had slipped weights in his teacher's Jönin vest.
'I know! I'll lose him in the forest.' Boruto thought.
Boruto put more strength in his step as he ran between the trees, widening the gap between the two. Soon, Konohamaru began slowing down, and was quickly out of breath.
With his remaining energy, he put his hands to his mouth let his voice fill the silence of the forest.
"BORUTO!"
Unfortunately, said shinobi had already been long gone, into the deep woods...
"Alright. I think I'm safe." proclaimed Boruto. "Now to see what kind of powerful jutsu Big Bro was hiding."
Boruto sat on the grass and reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out the scroll. He was about to open it up, but then he stopped. Something felt...weird.
He stood up, on guard. He could feel something watching him, but he couldn't get a sense of their chakra.
Boruto scanned the trees, hoping he could figure out what that feeling was coming from. That's when he nosies.
It sounded like a growl. But it was deep and felt, menacing. He quickly got his guard up.
'Wait what am I doing? It's probably just an animal.' he told himself.
"Boo."
"Aah!" he cried, tripping over his own feet and falling on his face. "Ooww."
He slowly picked himself up from off the ground and began to dust himself, all while shooting dirty looks at the laughing jokester.
"Sarada." He said, "What do you want?"
"*Chuckle* Well, Sensei told me to go find you, since he's out of breath." she replied.
"So you left him and Mitsuki alone together? Brutal." he said.
Sarada stopped smiling. She stood in front of Boruto and held out her hand. Boruto looked at her in confusion. "What?" he asked.
"The scroll. Give it to me."
Boruto rolled his eyes. He reached into his pocket and handed Sarada the scroll. "You're no fun."
Sarada put the scroll in her bag. "It's not about fun, Boruto. We are shinobinow. And shinobi have to be strong. And we can't do that if you keep disrespecting our teacher."
"Relax." he said. "Me and sensei understand each other. I pull a prank, he gets mad, he forgives me. It's no big- gah!"
Sarada held Boruto by his collar, lifting him a few inches above the ground.
"I am going to be Hokage one day, and that can't happen if you're holding me back." she said.
She dropped Boruto, who landed on his rear, and began to walk back to the training grounds. Boruto picked himself up. "Geez." he said.
He started to go after her but stopped. He felt as if something was watching him. He stood for a few more seconds, before following Sarada to the grounds.
By the time Boruto and Sarada got back, the Sun had just started to set on the clearing. Konohamaru noticed them coming from the stump he was sitting on.
"Welcome back you two." he said walking over, Mitsuki in tow.
Sarada pulled out the scroll and handed it to Konohamaru, who accepted it gladly.
"Thank you Sarada. I can always count on you." he said. He turned to Boruto. "As for you, Boruto, you get the pleausre of extra drills at tomorrows training."
"Aw man. Is it really that serious?" he said.
"You stole a personal item from me. This is what happens."
"Give me a break, Big Bro Konohamaru, I was having fun!"
Konohamaru put his head in his hand. "*Sigh* There's nothing wrong with a little fun, but during training there must be discipline."
"Fine! But can you at least tell me what inside the scroll?"
Sarada began to show interest in the conversation in front of her. "Yeah, I'm curious too, sensei."
Even Mitsuki was curious. "It is a puzzle." he said. "What is so important in there?"
Konohamaru looked hestitant. "Well, It might be too much for you."
"Alright!" Boruto cried. "Now I gotta know!"
Konohamaru sighed. "Okay fine. But be warned, the content of this scroll is too powerful for the weak."
"Yeah?" "Yeah?"
"All men are powerless against this force."
"Yeah?!" "Yeah?!"
"Are you ready?"
"Yeah!" "Yeah!"
"Alright, you asked for it!" he yelled. "Behold, the power of the gods!"
Konohamaru rolled open the scroll, and presented to the Genin.
"Alrig- huh?"
"The new bikini models of the summer! June! July! August!"
Boruto just stood there in disbelief. "Man, that's lame. I thought it was a cool jutsu." he said, and walked away, Konohamaru watching him go.
"Oh well, I guess a boy his age wouldn't understand perfection." he said.
Suddenly, Konohamaru felt a huge source of malice directed towards him. He turned around, seeing Sarada cracking her knuckles.
"Power of the gods huh?" she said, menancingly.
"Oh uh, look at the time. Training's over! I'll see you tomorrow okay?"
"Sensei!"
"AAH! Mitsuki a little help? Mitsuki?"
Unfortunately for him, Mitsuki had left right after Boruto.
"Aw man."
