Chapter Four

A Whole New Look

"Naruto-kun…"

"Mm…five more minutes…" The young blonde turned over and snuggled more into his blankets

"Come on Naruto-kun…"

"Mm…sleepy…"

At that, the sweet tone Anko had been using disappeared and her right eyebrow began to twitch slightly.

"…TIME TO GET UP!"

With that, she grabbed hold of the mattress and flipped it, along with the boy.

"GAH!"

*Thud*

"Time to get up gaki. Nai-chan made you some food, and did you forget that we're supposed to get you new clothes today?"

Naruto replied with a groan, the mattress still on top of him, "I'll be right down Anko…Thank you…"

"No problem Naruto-kun." She smiled and stuck her tongue out slightly, the sweet tone returning.

Naruto raised himself slowly from the floor, his sore body making him groan.

"Women are crazy…"

At this, Anko's head popped into the doorway, a sickly sweet smile on her face, "What was that Naruto-kun?"

"Gah! N-nothing Anko-chan! I'll be right down ahehe" He said, his hand scratching the back of his head nervously, trying to diffuse the situation.

"Well hurry up then!" she said, her head vanishing from the doorway.

Sighing, the young boy finished putting on his "clothes".

How does she do that…?

Shrugging, the boy pulled on his sandal and made his way down the stairs. As he was going down, he heard the voices coming from the breakfast table.

"I really hope that it doesn't happen again tonight Ko-chan…I mean it, I feel bad for the poor boy."

After she said this, he could hear the other woman in question sigh quietly.

"Yea…I completely agree with you, although I don't mind sleeping with him. He's like the perfect teddy bear! He even squeezes back."

Naruto blushed a very deep red at being called a teddy. The fox inside of him was laughing her ass off, remembering to tease him about this later.

"I know what you mean Anko; I had to pry him off this morning, who knew the boy had it in him! Isn't that right Naruto-kun?"

The boy froze outside the kitchen doorway and held his breath.

"You might as well come on in gaki, or else your food will get cold."

Sighing, Naruto made his way into the kitchen and saw the two women he loved sitting at the table. Kurenai was sipping her tea quietly and Anko held a stick of dango in her hand, one ball left.

"It's not polite to eavesdrop Naruto-kun, you know that don't you?"

At this, the boy cocked his head to the side and scratched his chin with his index finger.

"B-but Kurenai-chan…isn't that our job? I mean, as a ninja, we should be able to listen in on the enemy at the very least. Right?"

The two women looked at each other and smiled proudly. Even though he was only seven years old, he could still be very grown up at times.

"By the way, thank you for sleeping with me last night. I haven't slept that well in a long time. I hate to ask this of you two…but do you think we could sleep together more?"

Anko stopped mid-chew and smiled devilishly at the young blonde.

"My, my, Kurenai, we seem to have a little charmer on our hands…He wants to sleep with two women every night. Maybe next time I'll sleep how I normally do."

She said the last part with a wink, causing her friend to spit out the tea she had been drinking, a coughing fit following soon after. Kurenai knew how Anko had liked to sleep…Normally it was in nothing but her birthday suit. As Kurenai began to cough, Naruto ran behind her and started to pat her on the back gently, trying to get her to breathe again.

Anko giggled at their antics and pushed the last ball of her favorite treat into her mouth. As she did this, Naruto looked over at her, still patting Kurenai on the back.

"You can wear whatever you want Anko-chan! I'm sure you'll look great, would you mind showing me tonight?"

"Mmf!"

Anko loved dango, and thus refused to spit it out like Kurenai had done. Therefore, she was currently choking on it.

H-he wants to see what?! No! Seven years old…Seven years old!

Naruto frantically began to slap Anko on the back as she started to turn blue. Reluctantly, Anko let the treat fall out of her mouth in order to breathe. As she gasped for breath, her friend had finished recovering.

"A-anyway, Naruto-kun, are you all ready to shop? How many pairs of clothing do you want?" Kurenai said as she wiped her mouth slowly with a napkin.

Anko stared at the piece of dango on the floor. She was seriously contemplating on picking it up when they weren't looking…She then realized that it wasn't the right thing to do and began to tear softly.

"*Sniffle* Yes Naruto-kun…*Sniffle* how many?"

Anko couldn't help herself…Her precious dango lay on the floor. She mentally slapped herself as she came to the conclusion that she had deserved it. Trying to prank the boy in front of her had completely backfired.

Naruto let his jaw drop slightly at hearing the two women.

"What do you mean how many? I-I don't know…I've only ever had one pair at a time, sometimes not even that." Suddenly, his eyes widened and had small yellow stars in them.

"Does that mean we get to go ninja tool shopping too?!"

Both women smiled and shook their heads slowly.

"Sorry gaki, you're too young to deal with those yet. You'll have to work with wooden ones first. Which I have for you right here."

Anko moved her hand behind her back and pulled out a small package, handing it to the boy. Naruto, who had been slightly depressed at not being able to use real ones, smiled widely when he realized he had a gift.

Taking the box from the woman, he opened it and peered inside. There were 10 kunai knives and twenty shuriken stars. He pouted cutely when he found that all of their edges had been rounded.

His pout disappeared though as he looked at the purple haired woman.

"Thank you! I love them, I'll be sure to practice very hard. Where did you get them?"

Anko smiled and looked towards the other woman.

"Nai-chan and I carved them ourselves."

The blonde boy turned towards the raven haired woman and launched himself at her, wrapping his arms around the two women.

"Thank you, Thank you!"

Both Kurenai and Anko chuckled at the boy's antics. Looking at the clock on the wall, Kurenai patted Naruto on the back gently.

"Honey, we have to get going, don't you want your new-"

Instantly, Naruto vanished. Both women sat dumbfounded, confused as to where the young ball of energy disappeared to.

Fast! They both thought. Their thoughts were broken however, as they heard the young boy calling from the end of their walkway.

"Come on then! What are we waiting for?!"

-== At the Store ==-

After they had arrived at the store, Kurenai had allowed the young boy to move throughout the aisles. Anko looked nervously towards her friend.

"Are you sure it was a good idea to let him shop by himself?...I mean, he's only seven…What if he looks like a clown?"

Kurenai smiled and looked towards her, "I don't think you should be talking about what clothes he wears Anko-chan…seeing as you don't wear any."

Anko pouted cutely, standing up straight, "Hey! I wear clothes!"

"Sorry Ko-chan…A fishnet shirt doesn't count as clothing."

Anko held her coat open for the woman in front of her, "What about this coat! Or my skirt?!"

Giggling, Kurenai pointed towards Anko's chest, "Is it cold Anko?"

After she said this, the former Anbu looked down and saw that her nipples were indeed able to be seen, "Eep! Ok, I admit, that wasn't supposed to happen. I just like being free Nai-chan!"

The raven haired woman waved her hand dismissively, "Yes, yes, I understand Anko. Even I lose my pants for shorts occasionally."

Anko was about to retort when a young boy's voice caught their attention.

"Anko-chan! Kurenai-chan! I found the perfect outfits!"

At this, the two women turned their heads towards the boy. In his hands were two different outfits. One, was a completely orange jumpsuit, complete with blue trim. The other was a green spandex suit, complete with leg warmers and bandages for his wrists.

There was a very awkward silence going throughout the store. The women were definitely torn. They absolutely hated the outfits he chose, they just didn't want to break the little boy's heart.

Kami…who would wear that stuff…

Seeing their faces in turmoil, the little blonde couldn't help himself and began to break out in laughter.

"Oh Kami, you should see the look on your faces! Who the heck would wear stuff like this?!"

Smiling his foxy grin, the boy threw the two outfits over each of his shoulders, causing the women to exhale in relief, only to have their breath caught in their throats when they saw what he was really wearing.

The boy in front of them now wore a simple black with enough pockets to hold all sorts of scrolls. Under that, he wore a deep red hooded sweater. On his legs were a pair of black cargo pants with many different pockets and on his feet were a pair of simple black shoes. (A/N: Think of Vans, or a different style skater shoe)

As the women stared at him, he smiled nervously, "Aheh, yea I didn't know what they were either, but they're comfortable as hell!" He said, indicating his shoes.

The women looked at him and then at the accessories he had chosen for his new attire. They saw the black headband on his head and saw how the left over fabric went down to the middle of his back. On his hands, he wore white gloves that covered his fingers as well. On the back of them, was a small metal plate with the Konoha leaf on it.

Kurenai and Anko clapped for the blonde at his choice of clothing, smiling as he did a small bow to show off. Suddenly, he shot up and looked at both women.

"Wait…How are we going to pay for this?..."

The women smiled and waved their hands dismissively, "The Hokage mentioned something about a housewarming gift…"

"Yatta!" The little blonde boy smiled as he jumped in the air. Quickly, he ran back to grab more clothing.

-== At the Hokage's Tower ==-

Hiruzen suddenly shuddered. Standing up, he walked towards the window in his office and took out his wallet.

Staring at it, he couldn't shake this feeling.

"I-I feel a disturbance…"

-== A Day of Shopping Later ==-

Naruto sighed quietly as he stood still. Currently, the two women he had come to live with were inspecting him. Their bodies disappeared and reappeared at different angles around him. Finally, they stopped, smiled, and attacked him.

"Gah!"

They wrapped their arms around him and rubbed their cheeks against his, causing him to blush slightly.

"W-what are you two doing?!"

At this, both women smiled and continued to rub themselves against his cheeks.

"We're just so proud of you gaki! You had no idea how scared we were when we saw those…Abominations…"

Anko shuddered slightly, followed by Kurenai.

"Yes Naruto-kun…I didn't know which one was worse…Never joke like that again!"

Smiling slightly, the boy hugged the two women and kissed each on their cheeks, causing them to blush slightly at his forwardness.

"Sorry! I just couldn't help it…"

Sighing, the women pulled away completely, making the poor boy pout.

"Either way! Now, its time to start your torture."

Naruto's head tilted to the side slightly, "Don't you mean training Anko-chan?"

Smirking evilly, Anko and Kurenai shook their heads slowly, causing the boy to sweat slightly.

"No, no Naruto-kun, we mean torture…Especially on Anko's end. I'll be teaching you about chakra control and genjutsu."

"And you'll learn taijutsu, ninjutsu, and different physical training from me gaki."

Cowering slightly, the boy began to back up towards the front door to try to run away.

"P-please…can we at least think about this?"

Suddenly, the smirks the women wore disappeared. The each stood up straight and tilted their heads to the side, placing their index finger on their chins.

Naruto let out a sigh of relief.

Anko smiled sweetly and suddenly grabbed the blonde's hand.

"Thinking time is over gaki, training begins now." She said as she began to drag the poor boy outside.

Naruto tried frantically to get away from the sadistic woman, his hands clawing the ground slightly. When they got to the door, he held onto the frame for dear life. He had seen the look Anko had given him, and he didn't like it one bit!

"Gah! K-Kurenai-chan! Help me please!" Naruto said in a pleading voice to the other woman.

Said woman walked over to him slowly, placing her hand on his hand that was gripping the doorframe.

"Have fun…Naruto-kun." She smiled and suddenly tore his fingers from the frame.

Eyes widening in shock, the boy began clawing at the air as his one point of leverage was lost.

"No! A-Anko-chan…Please be gentle?..."

"Not a chance in hell gaki."

-== Later That Night ==-

Naruto limped slowly towards his bed, groaning with every step. The fox inside him giggled quietly as he flopped down onto the bed. As his head hit the pillow, the tired boy let out a sigh.

"Who *pant* knew Anko *pant* was a slave driver?" He managed to say quietly.

Smiling at this, the fox concentrated and a small figure of Naruto appeared in front of her human form. She knelt down next to him and began massaging every sore limb and muscle.

In reality, she was just moving her chakra throughout his body, but she liked to think that she was actually getting to touch the boy, like the two women on the outside.

As Naruto's body began to relax, he groaned quietly in thanks.

Nnh…Thank you…That feels really nice.

He could hear her giggle and he smiled to himself.

You have a really nice laugh err…wow…

"What is it Naruto-kun?"

It's just…well we've talked for who knows how long…And I don't even know your name. You do have a name, don't you?

At this, her giggling became a little louder.

"My name is Katsumi Naruto-kun."

Thinking for a moment, Naruto lifted his head slightly.

Doesn't that mean…Victorious beauty? Heh…Figures, you have a beautiful laugh, you might as well have a beautiful name.

Suddenly, her hands stopped their movements, only to resume a few seconds later.

"Y-you think I have a beautiful name?..." she said as she subconsciously let out more potent chakra, making the boy feel even warmer.

Of course Katsumi-chan, you have a wonderful name. I have to ask though, how do you make me feel so warm and comfortable?

Smiling, the fox rubbed a knot out of the boy's back, causing him to groan loudly.

"Well, my chakra is infused with yours Naruto-kun, so if I wanted to heal you, it would be just as if I wanted to heal myself."

Naruto nodded and came to a conclusion.

So you're just like a medical ninja?

"I guess you could say that, more like I'm your guardian Kit."

Smiling slightly, Naruto felt the warmth take over his body and felt his eyelids begin to droop.

I see…So I have…A guardian…Angel…As he thought the last word, his eyes finally closed and he fell into blissful sleep.

Katsumi's eyes widened slightly and she smiled sadly. As she continued to work on her containers sore muscles, she couldn't help but let a small tear fall onto his back.

He called me an angel…If only he knew what I really was. He will find out eventually…What will happen then?

She sighed quietly and kissed the boy's head softly, earning a quiet moan from the boy. Smiling, she began to run her fingers through his hair lovingly, all the while humming quietly.

"I hope you'll be able to forgive me one day Naruto-kun…"
