Finished a chapter for one of my other stories sooner than expected, and since I had nothing to do today, I worked on this. Hope you enjoy!
(Marshalanime does not own Naruto or To Love-Ru)
"I know the fate of the world depends on me keeping Lala's finance candidates from taking her, but they could at least put up a fight' Naruto thought as he watched Lala flush the alien Ghi Bree down on of her inventions. "Let's get Haruna down" Naruto said, already in the process of removing her from the tentacle machine Ghi Bree had her in.
After getting Haruna down
"You have anything that can fix her clothes?" Naruto asked as he avoided looking at her exposed chest. "Peke can!" Lala informed him. "Leave it to me!" and with that Peke proceeded to repair Haruna's uniform. "Could you take her to the nurses office when Peke's finished. I need to head back to class and make sure no one starts worrying about us" the blond said as he started making his way to the door.
"Sure" Lala told him. "Oh, and when she wakes up, tell her that you found her after she passed out from anemia or something. We don't need to worry her by telling her about Ghi Bree" Naruto said before he left.
Nurses office
"Are you awake, Haruna?" Lala asked when she saw the girl open her eyes. "Lala-san, I, what happened?" Haruna asked the pinket. "Haruna, you collapsed near the tennis club's room. They said it's anemia" Lala told the girl. "Anemia?" Haruna asked as she sat up. "Either way! I'm sooooo glad that you're safe, Haruna!" Lala cheered as she hugged the purple haired girl, much to said girls surprise.
"Erm, Lala-san, we're you the one who found me" Haruna asked. "Nope, the one that saved you is Naruto" Lala told her.
Sunday
"Waaaah. This is the earthlings' town. It's got so many things around! How interesting!" Lala happily said as she looked around.
"She sure is happy" Naruto said. "It wouldn't be a very good date if she wasn't" Jiraiya said from behind him. "If this is a date, than why are you two here?!" asked the slightly irritated blond, as he looked back at Jiraiya and Mikan. "Someone needs to make sure you don't do anything stupid" Mikan teased her brother. "Geez, thanks for the vote of confidence" Naruto sarcastically responded. "That's what we're here for" Mikan told him.
"Anyway, this isn't a date. We're just giving Lala a tour of the town" the blond said. "Yeah, speaking of which, I was thinking" Jiraiya said as he looked around. "Don't you think that would be easier if Lala didn't draw so much attention" Jiraiya said, getting the blond to notice the satires Lala was receiving. "I don't think you should be saying that" Mikan said to the white haired man. "What do you mean?" Jiraiya asked her. "I mean you look like you just came from a reenactment of feudal Japan" Mikan told him as she pointed out his clothes.
"Hm, there's nothing wrong with what I wear" Jiraiya told her, which got both her and Naruto to roll their eyes at him. "He still has a point. Lala draws enough attention without dressing like that" Naruto said as he walked up to the pinket. "Hey Lala, could you come here for a sec?" Naruto asked as he grabbed her hand and started pulling her with him.
"Is something wrong, Naruto?" Lala asked now that they were in an alleyway. "There's nothing wrong. We just thought it'd be easier to give you a tour, if you change your outfit to something an earthling would wear" Naruto explained to her. "I see" Lala said, followed by Peke saying, "Makes sense". "Peke can transform into ant kind of outfit, right? Why don't you imitate someone on the street" Jiraiya suggested.
"Hrmm. Then maybe that one, Peke!" Lala said to the robot. "Roger that. Costume analysis completed! Form change!" Peke said as she changed form. "How is this?" Lala asked now that she was in a businesses suit with a doctors coat over it and glasses. "I think that's a guys outfit" Naruto told her, with Mikan and Jiraiya agreeing with him.
"How about this?" Lala asked, now in a police woman's outfit. "Try again" Naruto told her. "Ta da!" the pinket said while she was in a sexy bunny costume. "I think we have a winner!" Jiraiya said right before Naruto elbowed him in the stomach. "Next!" Naruto said. After a number of outfits. "Then, this?" Lala asked, now in a dress with a white over shirt.
"We'll take it!" Naruto said. "Good. Then let's go!" Lala said as she wraped her arm around Naruto's, and started pulling him along. "Getting all lovey dovey there, aren't you Naruto? Maybe we shouldn't have tagged along after all" Mikan teased the blond. "You can always go and spend time with Kurama, if you're so worried about ruining the mood" Naruto told her. "I think I'll pass" the brunette said.
After an hour or so
"What is this machine?" Lala asked as she looked at one of the price machines in an arcade. "You put money in here and try to get a stuffed toy with the crane" Mikan explained. "Wah, that's cute!" Lala said as she looked at a toy rabbit in the machine. "Hrmmm, but that's pretty big, so it'll be hard to get it" Mikan said. "It shouldn't be to hard" Naruto said as he walked up to the machine.
One try later. "Ooooh! Naruto, you're amazing!" Lala cheered as Naruto handed her the rabbit. "He's just ridiculously lucky when it comes to this kind of thing" Mikan said. "Huah, you can say that. The gaki could become rich if he ever starts gambling" Jiraiya added. "You're just jealous" Naruto told them. "Thanks Naruto! I'll make this my treasure!" Lala happily told the blond. 'It really is nice to see her this happy' Naruto thought with a smile.
"What'd you got there Mikan?" Naruto asked the brunette, as they walked through the shopping distract. "Nmm, I got them for free when I bought some clothes earlier. There discount tickets to the newly built aquarium" Mikan explained. "Aquarium?" the pinket asked. "It's a place with plenty of fish and other creatures from the sea" Naruto explained to her. "Ooh, that sounds fun!" Lala cheered. "Lala-san, why don't we go there later?" Mikan suggested.
As the two were talking, Naruto noticed something rather worrying. "Lala, your outfit is disappearing!" Naruto nearly yelled. "I-I'm really sorry Lala-sama" Peke apologized, sounding rather worn out. "Peke?!" Lala asked, concerned for the robot. "It seems that I'm running out of energy. I guess the continuous form changes earlier burdened me more than expected" Peke explained.
"What'll happen if your energy runs out?" Jiraiya asked the robot. "Then I won't be able to keep the costume shape, probably in about three minutes "Ahah, seems like we got some trouble" Lala said as she sheepishly rubbed the back of her head. "I'll take her to a clothes store! You two catch up with use there!" Naruto said as he grabbed Lala's hand and started running. Once he was gone, "Don't even think about it" Mikan warned the old pervert, as he reached for his notebook.
Clothes store
"Take these and get in the changing room!" the blond told Lala as he handed her a bunch of random clothes and pushed her into the room. 'Man, that was a close one' Naruto thought when he heard a familiar voice. "Yuuki-kun?" Haruna asked. "Huh? Oh Haruna, what are the chances of running into you here?" Naruto said to the girl.
"What are you doing here?" Haruna asked. "You see, Lala had a problem with her clothes, so we came in here to get her knew clothes" Naruto nervously explained. "I tried this on! How is it, Naruto? Does it look good on me?!" Lala asked as she came out in black underwear. "I only grabbed underwear, didn't I?" Naruto asked. "Huh? It's you Haruna" Lala said, noticing the purple haired girl. "Could you help me out with this? I'm not exactly good with this kind of thing" Naruto asked Haruna.
After getting Lala new clothes and regrouping with Mikan and Jiraiya
"Waaaah, it's pretty! There are many kinds of fish here" Lala said, amassed by everything around her. "What'd you expect? This is an aquarium" Naruto said. "Ah! Look at that!" Lala excitedly said as she ran to one of the tanks. "Lala-san, don't get too excited, you might get lost" Mikan told the pinket.
"Look. This is huge, Haruna!" Lala said as she pointed to a large fish. "Fufu, Lala-san is like a little kid" Haruna commented. "She can be at times. Oh, and sorry if you got dragged along with us" Naruto told Haruna. "Ah, it's okay. I like this kind of place" Haruna told him. "That's good to know" the blond said.
"I'm sorry, too" the purple haired girl said. "Sorry for what?" Naruto asked the girl. "I, am I interrupting the two of you, Yuuki-kun?" Haruna asked the blond. "Interrupting? Nah, it's not like we're one a date. Besides, do you really think I'd let him tag along if it was?" Naruto asked as he pointed at Jiraiya trying, and failing, to flirt with a busty blond. "Haha, I guess you're right" Haruna said with a small smile.
'Hm? He seems awfully found of her' Mikan thought to herself as she watched the blond. "Naruto! It's a serious problem! There are no corbiculae here!" Lala said as she ran up to the blond. "Lala, they don't have that kind of fish her" Naruto informed her. "Really? How about mackerel and saury?" Lala asked. "People don't typically come to an aquarium to see fish they might eat" the blond explained to her. "Oh. Nmm? That looks fun over there!" Lala said when she noticed a sing for the penguin exhibit, and started running to it.
"I should go make sure she doesn't get into trouble" Naruto said, but before he could Mikan stepped in. "I'll keep an eye on her. You just relax with Haruna-san" Mikan said before walking off after Lala. "Guess that just leaves us" Naruto said, right before it hit them that they were alone now.
"Sooooo, anything you want to talk about" the blond said with his head turned away from her, not wanting her to see his blush. "Well, about the other day" Haruna managed to get out. "Other day?" Naruto said. "Lala-san told me, that you were the on that took me to the nurses office. I wanted to thank you, but I never got the chance" Haruna told him, a small blush adorning her cheeks.
"Don't mention it! I always help out people who are important to me" Naruto said with out thinking. "I'm, important to you?" Haruna asked the blond, which only worsened his blush. "Y-yeah, of course you are! Why wouldn't you be?" the blond asked. "It's just, you seemed like you never noticed me. And, now you and Lala" Haruna was saying, unsure of what to say. "Me and Lala, huh? Hm, it's kinda complicated. Like an arranged marriage, without actually being one" Naruto tried to explain.
"What do you-" Haruna was asking when Naruto suddenly pulled her down, and a penguin to fly over her. "What'd Lala do this time?" Naruto asked aloud, only for the girl in question to show up. "How is it? Isn't it great?!" Lala cheerfully asked as she ran up to them. "Depends, what did you do to them?" the blond asked. "Hee hee, They move around so slow, so I gave them this! 100 times the energy with just one pill! A secret remedy for Deviluke soldiers, Berserker Deluxe!" Lala explained as she held up one of the pills.
"Lala" Naruto said. "Yes" the pinket responded. "Never use that unless it's an emergency" Naruto told her.
With Mikan and Jiraiya
"He definitely likes Haruna-san" Mikan said. "The gaki's growing up. Maybe I should take him to the elemental nations for a more, thurow education, on women" Jiraiya suggested. "If you ever want to enter the house again, you'll forget about that plan. Also, should we do something about this?" Mikan asked as she watched the penguin's flying around. "Nah, I'm sure whatever Lala gave them will wear off eventually. No need for us to get involved" Jiraiya told her.
