The next morning, Naruto woke up but not wanting to get up yet he rolled over and accidently fell of the bed. He let out a startled yelp and looked around, confused. He looked around for Sasuke and found him outside sharpening his Kusanagi sword. Naruto yawned and layed down beside him.
Floors should be made of pillows.
"Naruto, you're getting a haircut today. You're hair is too long and keeps collecting dirt." Naruto yelped and tried to run but Sasuke grabbed the scruff of his neck.
Lemme go, I don't want a haircut! Barbers are mean and what if they accidently cut off my tail or make me into a fur coat?! Sasuke put away his sword and raised Naruto to eye-level.
"If you get a haircut, I'll get you pork ramen and if you don't, no mission for you"
Fine I'll go, but if they kill me, they owe me ramen. Sasuke stood up and placed Naruto on his shoulder before walking to the Animal Salon. As they reached the Salon's door, Naruto began to shake and it didn't help that the haircutter had what looked like a fox coat. She had long blond hair and icy cold eyes. She strongly resembled a barbie doll in a human form. When she saw Naruto her eyes glinted.
"What a cute fox! My name is Miranda, what can I do for you?"
"I want a haircut...I mean hair trim for my fox" He saw the evil glint in her eyes when he said haircut and really didn't want Naruto to be bald. She pried Naruto of Sasuke's shoulder and placed him in a special tub where his head stuck out comfortably.She began to fill the tub with water but with Naruto strugggling violently, she needed the assistance of 4 other girls to hold him still. They managed to get most of the dirt off as Sasuke read a novel put out for costumers. Miranda placed Naruto on a metal table and as the girls held him she pulled out metal scissors and a comb. Naruto began to whimper and shake even more as she began to cut his hair. Sasuke began to pity the fox and walked over to pet his head. Naruto calmed down a bit but still shook once in a while. After Miranda was done, Naruto jumped and wrapped around Sasuke's neck and refused to be moved. Sasuke paid the lady and walked out the door. When Kiba and Ino stopped them. Ino surprisingly didn't flirt with Sasuke and instead eyed Naruto.
"Hey wanna go with us and play us some DDR?"
"Don't have a partner" Naruto nipped his ear and barked. Sasuke shrugged and began to walk toward the arcade with Ino and Kiba following. Once they were there they found a empty DDR machine and went on verse mode. Kiba got to choose the first song and he chose Get Busy. He and Sasuke got on the machine and began to dance, as Naruto and Ino cheered them on. Soon, at the end of the song when the points began to appear it showed that Sasuke had won by having one perfect more than Kiba. Kiba walked over to Ino who smile reassuringly.
"Don't worry I'll win the next round, I mean how can I lose to a stupid fox?" Naruto growled slightly and stepped onto the arrows. Since Kiba had lost, Ino got to choose the next song, so she chose Irresistable. Naruto had to jump on each arrow at a time and had a bit of difficulty on jumping on two arrows at a time but soon he got the hang of it and began doing flips and summersaults. Soon a audience had gathered around them, it wasn't everyday you saw a fox playing DDR. Soon the song ended and everyone waited impatiently for the scores. Ino wanted to win to get Sasuke's attention while Naruto wanted to win for ramen. Finally the scores showed that Naruto had gotten a "A" and Ino got a "A".
Not bad for a STUPID fox, huh?
I can't believe I lost to a stupid fox!
Hey who are you calling stupid?
You. Naruto spun around and faced Akamaru.
Huh? You can understand me?
No duhhhh.
Wah, you're mean.
And you're ugly. Naruto growled but was picked up by Sasuke before he could do anything and saw Kiba do the same to Akamaru.
"Maybe you should get a better trained fox that won't attack nice ol' Akamaru"
Nice my ass.
What ass? Naruto began to struggle, making Sasuke hold him tighter. Sasuke walked out of the arcade and toward Konoha gate. Naruto began to get really scared when they walked out the gate and into the forest.
If he leaves me in the forest alone I won't be able to come back through the gate without my headband! Sasuke placed him on the ground and kept on walking. Naruto sat there, not knowing what to do until Sasuke turned around.
"Are you coming?" Naruto cocked his head slightly in confusion. Sasuke sighed as he walked over to him and knelt in front of him.
"Do you think I'm abandoning you? Don't worry, you're mine and I don't leave my stuff lying around" Sasuke dug into his pocket and pulled out a dog collar. It was orange and blue with a fox with the words "Naru" engraved on it. He put it on Naruto and smiled. Naruto barked and jumped on Naruto who picked him up and started walking again.
Wait did you just refer to me as "stuff"? Anyway if you are'nt abandoning me then where are we going? Naruto started to hear a roaring noise and looked up to see that they were at the bottom of a HUGE waterfall.
Wow, cool! Naruto ran to a small cliff just above the water and jumped of it like it was a low diving board.
Yay, I'm Batman! Wait, who's Batman? Is Batman my stalker? Oh My God, Batman is my stalker! Wait! If I'm Batman wouldn't that mean I'm my own stalker? As Naruto pondered he hit the water, spraying Sasuke with water. Naruto looked in amazement as he swam deeper and deeper underwater. There were many different colored fishes swimming aound, different water plants and even a few turtles. He was about to go back up when he saw a small cave on the waterfall was. Curious, he swam in and kept swimming unitl he hit a dead end. He began to float upward until he broke the surface of the water. He found himself in a big cave full of different tunnels.
Wow there's a cave behind the waterfall! He began to swim back out of the cave and met Sasuke who was looking for him. They both swam up to the surface and to the rocky shore.
"You idiot! I thought you drowned or something." Naruto pulled on his wet pants and ran to the water. Sasuke groaned but followed him into the water. Naruto showed Sasuke the big cave. Naruto jumped out of the water and shook out the water from his fur. Naruto got a better look at the cave. It was dark but some beams of light came in and showed many tunnels leading into darkness. Sasuke aslo looked around and noted the tree roots poking out through the ceiling. He was about to swim back when he heard a noise above.
"You sure you saw him swimming here?"
"Yeah lets stay here until he comes back!" Sasuke growled and pulled himself out of the water. He began to shiver violently. He lay down in a sunbeam in hopes of drying off. Naruto noticed him shivering so he made himself bigger and wrapped himself around Sasuke. Soon the driffted off too sleep.
