Chapter Three: The Wandering Cub
Hiro was seated on a bench in the street as the sun began to set, his thoughts wandering away to the events of the day. Two things stood out in his mind as the most important things he needed to address.
One: He genuinely was in a fictional world. Everything that had happened throughout the day was definitely real.
And two: There was definitely something strange going on with him. That tower definitely never showed up at any point in the series. It must have something to do with his arrival here. Perhaps it was connected to the strange energy that seemed to rise from him at peaks of anger or fear.
"Hey, hey! Are you a hobo or something?!" Naruto called out to his friend, pulling him away from his thoughts and bringing his attention to Naruto.
"Naruto? What're you doing here?" Hiro asked Naruto. Shortly after Hiro's burst of energy, Naruto had left his friend and headed home, saying that he would start Hiro's training tomorrow.
"That's my line! What're you doing out here so late?" Naruto replied, turning Hiro's question onto himself. Hiro sighed as he began to answer.
"I haven't got anywhere to go. So, I figured I'd just find the most comfortable street bench and take a nap." Hiro said, somewhat embarrassed. Naruto seemed to smile, as though he was hoping for his answer.
"Why don't you just stay with me? I've got a much more comfortable place than some bench." Naruto asked. As one of his only friends, Naruto saw the need to help his new Hobo friend.
Plus, he always wanted a roommate. But he wouldn't mention that.
"That sounds like a great idea! Thanks Naruto, I owe you some Ramen for sure!" Hiro grinned at his friend. This would certainly be better than his current plan. Naruto smiled back and began leading Hiro to his house.
The ninja watched as the two boys, the troublemaker and the wanderer, began to walk away from the bench with a tired expression. He had been watching this Hiro character for about two hours and hadn't seen anything that would make the Hokage so suspicious as to send someone to watch him. It was incredibly strange behaviour for a powerful warrior and leader like the Hokage to be so concerned about a homeless child.
"You done with your paedophilia yet?" An unfamiliar voice said from behind him. In an instant, he spun around and grabbed his kunai, prepared to challenge this intruder.
Only to find nothing behind him.
Then a set of strange blue eyes emerged.
And the ninja was no more.
"Stay away from the Wolf." The blue eyed murderer said with venom dripping from his voice. With that, he walked off, his cloak flapping behind him, making a red cloud symbol barely visible in the light of the moon.
"Achoo!" Hiro sneezed as awoke from his sleep. For a moment his groggy mind panicked. Was this the tower again? Was he kidnapped? Was-
"Mornin' Hiro." Naruto yawned as he emerged from the hallway, heading into the living room to see his friend sitting upright in a sleeping bag, with his now standard panicked expression.
Upon seeing Naruto, Hiro immediately remembered where he was. He visibly relaxed and let a smile cross his features.
"Morning Naruto. Did I wake you?" Hiro asked, with all trace of his previous panic gone. Naruto simply shook his head and walked over to his fridge, pulling out a carton of milk, expired for a few days. Hiro stood up and joined him at the table, though he refused to drink the expired milk.
"So, are we going to do some training today?" Hiro asked, with a tone not unlike an impatient child. Naruto took a gulp of his milk before speaking.
"Sure. Just give me a few minutes. I'm not a morning ninja." Naruto yawned. Hiro lit up, thinking of the possibility of him learning how to shoot fire and lightning, creating clones of himself and summoning powerful beasts.
And the Sexy Jutsu. No need to explain the value of that technique.
True to his word, Naruto was up and energetic in just a few minutes. Five minutes and seventeen seconds to be precise. Hiro was counting, anxious to get his training going.
"All right, let's start by charging up some Chakre." Naruto said, failing to remember the name of the vital ninja energy.
"Don't you mean Chakra?" Hiro asked with a slightly smug tone of voice, expecting something like this to happen.
"Don't get smug on me! Real ninjas say Chakre." Naruto defended. Hiro simply rolled his eyes at him.
"Sure. So, how do we do that?" Hiro asked, eager to get started. Naruto got into a squatting position, making a basic seal with his hands and charging up some Chakra, taking the form of yellow energy flowing into his body. Hiro swiftly attempted to mimic the action. It took a bit of work, but he managed to charge some Chakra, his taking the form of blue energy. Once he had charged as much Chakra as he would need, he stopped.
"So, are we going to try doing a Jutsu now?" Hiro asked. Naruto nodded and smiled evilly. This next part would be fun.
"Yep! I'm going to start with one of my best techniques." Naruto said. Hiro raised an eyebrow. What was this technique?
His questions were answered when Naruto made a few hand signs and transformed. Into an attractive woman.
"Impressed?" Naruto said after using his Sexy Jutsu in his best seductive voice. Hiro collapsed, his mouth agape.
"That's for my Ramen!" Naruto laughed as he reverted back to normal.
A.N: That was fun to write! More questions were raised, nice interactions were had and, most importantly, there were implied boobs. Isn't that what we all want?
No? OK then...
Anyways, Until the next chapter, See Ya!
Sincerely,
Lord Terronus
