Chapter 4

After another dramatic fainting episode at the ramen stand Naruto put Techi and Ayame into the back part of the shop until they woke up. But until they did he decided to take over the stand. I mean it's only fair that he made them faint and all. Naruto was probably as good a cook as he was at eating Techi's ramen. Because as a child Techi would let Naruto behind the stand to show him how the ramen is made, and as a side effect Naruto learned a couple of tricks from the chef in the process. As Naruto was preparing for customers the two idle gauntlets thought is be best to stay out of view for a while. Having 3 people faint just by looking at them was not a good sign. If any more people faint there would probably be an epidemic in the village.

Five minutes pass and two customers walk through the tapestry entrance. The first one was a tall shaggy looking man around his 20's. He had all the features of a well-seasoned skater, from the loose clothes that he wore to the beanie that was on top of his head that looked as if he hadn't been washed in weeks. The second person was a slightly shorter girl same age as the first dude. The accessories on her clothes showed she was a computer programmer, from the many many references of computer programs to the geeky looking backpack she was wearing.

Naruto could tell they were close. Well, mainly because they were holding hands when they walked in. the skater looked surprised when he saw Naruto on the stand. I guess that was a natural reaction, the dude was probably expecting Techi on the counter.

"um…this is Ramen Ichiraku right?" asked the dude thinking he was in the wrong place.

"yes sir it is. You hungry? Please you and your lady friend have a seat." Said Naruto getting the menu's out for them.

As they sat down the computer girl looked at Naruto like she was trying to put together a puzzle. Naruto noticed this and looked back at her with his signature fox grin.

"Is something wrong miss?"

"Say…do I know you from somewhere?" asked the girl

"No, I don't think so. I would've remembered you if I did."

"…wait, you're the legendary Prankster aren't you!?" she yelled pointing towards Naruto

"um…what do you mean legendary?" he asked now a bit curious

"DUDE! Your pranks are legendary across Konoha! That one time you paint over mount Hokage was hilarious! Oh oh and the time you put itching powder into the ROOT's underwear was killer dude! No one in the village could ever top that!" she said laughing as she was telling each of Naruto's pranks.

"Wait this is the guy you keep mentioning to the others?" she the skater bewildered by this fact

"YES! Compared to anyone in the village he is the prank god!"

"Well…I wouldn't say I'm a god now" said Naruto as he was blushing from being praised by his works.

While the conversation was going on Zao was laughing his guts off hearing listening to Naruto's pranks. While Aron was just watching him confused as to what he was laughing about.

"Dude…are you kidding me now? No one still know's HOW to pulled that off! Oh you got to tell me how please!" she asked giving puppy eyes to Naruto...who was surprisingly not effected.

"Sorry…miss?"

"Oh…my apologizes. My names Honi. This here is Gokun." She said as the skater waves to Naruto

"Honi…well im sorry Honi but a prankster never reveals his tricks. Im afraid you'll have to look elsewhere."

"awwww…I wanted to try it on my brother"

"hehehe. Now enough about me what would you two like?" asked Naruto as he was holding a notepad for the orders.

After the two ordered their meals Naruto started making the food right away. When it was done he handed them to the two customers and took the money for the meal. Now compared to Techi's cooking Naruto didn't think he was up to his level yet…well he's about to find out that he is wrong. As soon as these two take a bite their mouth just explode with flavor they have never tasted before. Compared to Techi's this food was like it was made from god himself.

"So what do you think? Is it good?" asked Naruto wanting a personal opinion since he never made anyone ramen.

When the two customers looked at Naruto they had Big hungry looking eyes and were inhaling the entire bowl til nothing was left.

"Dude…that was…AWESOME!" said the skater

"Yeah! I never had ramen this good before in my entire life!"

"…seriously? It was that good?" said Naruto

"Good? It was Spectacular! It was like god himself made it from his kitchen!" said the girl again praising Naruto for his talents.

"Well im glad that you like it. Come back soon!"

"Oh we definitely will! See ya bro!"

As the two customers left what Naruto didn't know was that Techi had woken up a bit early and watched the whole scenario take place in front of him. Being a bit curious he went over to the ramen pot and took a taste at Naruto's creation. What he tasted…was so not like his cooking at all. In fact Naruto's cooking was probably better than his was, and the kid was 19 years old! It took Techi 20 years just to get his recipe working. But for him to make a batch better than his own…it was unreal.

"Hey Naruto…"

"Oh, hey Techi you're awake. Feel better?"

"yeah yeah its just…did you make this?"

"um yeah. Sorry for not asking but I didn't want you losing customers so I took over until you woke up."

"its no big deal. Say Naruto, how would you a part time job working in the kitchen with me?" said Techi with a grin on his face

"….im sorry I think I misheard you, did you say you wanted ME to work at the ramen stand?"

"you heard me correctly Naruto."

"…"

"…"

"…excuse me one moment"

Naruto quietly went outside and as soon as he stepped out the stand he began jumping in ecstatic joy! For as long as he could remember he had always wanted to work at the stand and now he can finally cross that off his bucket list. After that he went back inside and faced Techi.

"Techi. I would gladly accept. But…could you wait until I become a full ninja first?"

"Of course Naruto! The offer will always be open to you….by the way where are the gauntlets you were wearing when you walked in?"

"Oh them? I think I left them in the storage closet. One sec I'll go grab them."

Naruto quickly ran to the storage closet and equipped Aron and Zao back and let said his goodbyes to Techi.

"Goodbye Techi! I'll come back soon!"

"Alright kid! Be safe!"

"I will thanks!"

After walking away from the stand Zao looked up to Naruto trying to keep his laughter contained.

"So Naruto…"

"Yeah?"

"…Itching powder in ROOT's underwear. Tell me the story…"
