Chapter 2:

"Take 1! Take it away, Naruto!" Jiraiya called.

"Believe it! I'm Naruto Uzumaki –"

"Are you sure?" Kakashi interrupted.

"Why?"

"People don't generally say 'believe it' before they say their name. Makes it sound like they're hiding something. Tell me Naruto, are you hiding something?"

"Yes!" He frowned. "I mean, no!"

Kakashi raised an eyebrow sceptically. "I see. Highly suspicious."

"I'm Naruto Uzumaki!"

"You didn't sound so sure a minute ago."

"I am… aren't I? Ohmygosh what if I'm not? What if this is all a lie?"

Naruto ran off in a random direction, mumbling to himself frantically.

"Cut! Kakashi, if you give one more of your colleagues an identity crisis, I swear I will find a replacement for you quicker than you can blink!"

"Take 2!"

"Believe it! I'm Naruto Uzumaki. I like instant ramen in a cup and I really like the ramen Iruka sensei buys for me at the Ichiraku noodle shop but I hate the three minutes you have to wait after you pour the water in the ramen cup and myhobbyiseatingdifferentkindsoframenand-"

"Cut!" Jiraiya yelled. "Who forgot to put punctuation in Naruto's script?"

"BREATHE, NARUTO, BREATHE!" Sakura yelled.
