This is kind of long, I suppose... Anyways, enjoy! This is basically Naruto and Sasuke friendship! With an added bonus of Itachi in there! Well, I just added him there because I love the boy, he's a boy in my story... so... yeah. Itachi Fans! There you go.
The disclaimer was some thing I did in the other chapter... so, yeah.
Chapter Four:
The Starting of Nicknames.
"Oi, Sasuke! Want to play ninja tag?" The blonde said as he destroyed a tower that he had built, he was getting bored of staying indoors and wanted to go outside and play; but the stubborn raven-haired boy in front of him wanted to stay and read… read something that was boring and you could do at any time.
"No… I told you, I'm busy reading…" Sasuke said as he gave Naruto a glare, it wasn't anything like his father's or his brother's; but it certainly did the trick sometimes in getting people to shut up.
"But… I'm bored~!" He exclaimed throwing his a ball to another tower that he had built long ago, the outburst made Sasuke's eye twitch in annoyance.
"Shut up! You dumb yellow-haired canary (1)!" Sasuke yelled at the irritated blonde, Naruto only gaped at him he eyed Sasuke's red-faced tan that he had gotten in a brief seconds. He was about to complain again, but then remembered what Sasuke had called him and his eye twitched in anger.
"Why don't you make me duck-butt?" He retorted smartly giving a sly grin, which received a glare.
"I'm not a duck-butt!"
"Pfft, fine…Chicken-butt… or would you prefer chicken-ass?" Naruto said with a mischievous smile, while Sasuke was shaking in anger.
"At least I'm not a dumbass…" He muttered, but Naruto heard him.
"At least I'm not a stubborn bastard that's got duck-ass hair and has a pole shoved up their ass."
He said as he turned away from him, but took a peek and saw the scariest glare that Sasuke could ever get on his face. He shivered a little, but then reminded himself of Itachi-nii's or Fugaku-oji's and those were far scarier than the little duck-butt's.
"You, dumbass canary that will be nothing but a damned dobe for the rest of their life!"
"Teme…"
"Dobe."
"TEME!"
"DOBE!"
"DUCK-ASS!"
"CANARY-SHITHEAD!"
"Oh yeah! At least I'm not boring and someone that sucks the fun out of everything!"
"I'm fun!"
"Pfft, fun-sucker! You're a fun-sucking leech and a duck-ass!"
"You…" Sasuke stammered as he was seething in anger, but before he could reply he was interrupted by a small gasp.
The two boys glanced towards the door and there standing was Sasuke's mother and Itachi, to which both of them blinked, while Naruto and Sasuke blinked at them.
Sasuke stared and then turned towards Naruto and glared, "You're nothing but a fucking two-bit idiot canary that will always be a loser, dead-last shithead!"
"Oh… my…" Mikoto murmured and then promptly fainted; Itachi quickly caught his mother and sighed.
"Otouto… Naruto-kun… Where did you learn all those words?" He raised a brow as he fanned his mother with his hand, trying to get her to awaken. The two children only looked at each other with curious looks, but Sasuke answered his brother first with certain Uchiha arrogance.
"I learned those words from Shisui-nii and his teammates, he told me to never say them out loud to anyone unless I'm really angry with them."
"I learned those words from Obito-oji and Kakashi-oji, oh and Henma? No… Genma! They were in the Hokage's office playing a game and they said those words! They told me to never say them unless someone pisses me off!" He gave a wide grin, to which Sasuke soon smiled.
Itachi let a small smile adorn his face, but inside he was as Naruto put it, 'pissed'. He was already planning the murders of Shisui and his teammates; he knew no one would bother in searching for their bodies or even bother in looking for them for months on end. As for the Jonins… that'll be delicate. They will be missed and two of them were the Hokage's students, he tsked at the luck Obito and Kakashi had; but if he told Kushina-oba… Oh, how badly he wanted to laugh as the image of them running for their lives and begging for mercy, knowing his Aunt Kushina will most likely involve Rin-san, as well.
"Otouto, Naruto-kun, please refrain from using such words…"
"But…" Naruto whined. "Itachi-nii! Those words are fun!" He exclaimed and Sasuke nodded in agreement. Itachi now really wanted to kill the mentioned parties that had dared to taint his precious brother's and his other little brother's ears. He couldn't help but think of the plans and traps he would pull on all of them and even unleash the Red Hot-Headed Habanero, that, itself was the premise of his master plan.
He was glad that his smile didn't portray such sadistic thoughts in front of his two younger siblings (well one, but he regards Naruto as one).
"If you keep using such words, I'll make sure that, there will be no such things as tomatoes or ramen anymore, especially in all of Konaha." He eyed them, wondering if they'll take the threat seriously; when they blanched at the thought of their precious food being taken away they sulked, he knew he had won.
"Okay Itachi-nii… I promise…"
"Aniki… I promise, too… Don't take away my tomatoes…"
"I won't, as long as you don't say such words again." Itachi said as he checked his mother, while Naruto stroked his imaginary beard and Sasuke glanced at his fallen mother curious as to why she was sleeping.
"So…" Naruto began, "…I can't call 'Saucy' (2), Duck-butt?" He gave a mischievous grin.
Sasuke eye twitched in annoyance, while Itachi was caught between being amused or worried. He settled in being amused, considering he never heard anyone utter Sasuke's name as Saucy… the idea practically made him laugh, but for the sake of his brother's pride he won't. It just might damage him and Itachi rather choose to save the 'Saucy' name for a rather embarrassing moment for his Otouto; after all it is his job to make his younger brother's life living hell and it just helps to be prepared, after all he is an Uchiha.
"Does that mean I can call 'Nasu' (3) a yellow-haired idiot canary?" Sasuke replied, giving Naruto a glare. Itachi mentally gave the insult an 8.6, as for Naruto's he would give him a 9.1 just because of the little nickname.
"Who are you calling Nasu!?"
"Who are you calling Saucy?!
They both yelled out and pointed to the other, Itachi inwardly sigh; after all he had appearances to keep.
"What did I say? No need for those words…"
"I'm not saying any of those words… Itachi-nii, you said I can't say those words, you didn't say anything about us coming up with awesome insults that don't have those words in them."
"…"
"We got you there Aniki…Admit it."
He opened his mouth to reply, to the two, now smug children in front of him; but was soon interrupted by a soft laughter that came where his mother was.
"Kaa-san…"
She was still laughing, but was now chuckling and glanced at her eldest; who was helping her sit up. "They're right, Ita-kun… They got you."
"Kaa-san…" He said monotonously, wanting to get away with the fact of being outwitted by six-year olds.
"See! Mikoto-oba! We outsmarted the weasel!" He exclaimed in victory and even Sasuke sported a cocky smirk, to which Itachi replied to narrowing his eyes at them and glaring.
"Yes, you did outsmart the weasel…" She said as she stood and patted her dress, making sure she didn't have any dirt. She glanced at the boys and smiled, "…Now, you two both know… you should never say those words, do you?"
"Yes…" The both said murmuring, feeling ashamed and not meeting the Uchiha matriarch's gaze.
"Good… Did you tell Ita-kun, who told you those horrible words?"
Naruto only nodded, but Sasuke spoke up "…Yes…"
"Now, Ita-kun… don't you have somewhere to be?" She said too sweetly and turned her smile towards Itachi, who could feel the malevolent aura surround his lovely mother; he shivered slightly at the evil presence.
"Y-Yes… I do, Kaa-san…" He said quietly, not wanting to feel the wrath of his mother's little demonic side and headed to his room to get said equipment for his plan.
"Oh! And Ita-kun~" She sang sweetly, a little too sweetly for Itachi's taste; but nonetheless he halted in walking and answered his mother.
"Yes?"
"Make sure you clean up after you're done… I wouldn't want you to have evidence- Oh! I mean, dirt all over the floor now do I?" Mikoto said as she eyed her soon.
"Aa. Kaa-san, I will be a bit late tonight… but I will do as you say."
"Super! Now get going~" She said kindly, she turned her gaze at the two children in front of her and smiled. "Why don't you to go outside and play, okay?"
"Alright, Kaa-chan…"
"Okay, Mikoto-oba!"
She smiled and left the boys and turned towards the kitchen, the boys were soon met with silence. Naruto stroked or rubbed his imaginary mustache and glanced at Sasuke; who raised a brow, but soon enough Naruto broke the silence.
"Sasuke…"
"Yeah?"
"The people we mentioned to Itachi-nii… they're going to die aren't they?"
"Most likely…"
"…"
"…"
There was only a brief pause as the two gave a moment of silence for their soon-to-be fallen loved ones, until Naruto spoke "Want to play ninja tag?"
"Sure… but, let's play 'spy and assassin' (4) first…" Sasuke said as he grabbed a backpack.
"Hyuga?" Naruto grinned, while Sasuke smirked and nodded.
"Definitely, Hyuga."
"Yosh!" Naruto shouted as he raised a fist in the air, "…Then what are we waiting around here for! Let's go!"
"Aa…"
(1): Okay, so me and my brother (Vinyl: he wants that as his... um... pen name.) decided to role play... especially for this chapter. I pretended to be a five-year old Naruto and he a five-year old Sasuke, we took... um, took it seriously... No joke our dad had to come and break us up, before it got out of hand. Anyways, he had come up with the idea of calling Naruto a canary... I have never thought of that before and it does makes sense... Amazing, and for that a round of applause for my brother.
(2): 'Saucy', I probably got this from other fanfics; but it makes sense... Saucy, does love his tomato and why wouldn't he love tomato sauce?
(3): 'Nasu', this means eggplant... but I got this name from Beelzebub, people who are fans... should know who I'm talking about if not... Nasu is a character and is in the beginning of the 'Six Ishiyama's Upstarts Arc', they use his character as a reference to Naruto, by having Baby Beel draw whisker marks on his cheeks. Anyway, it's a food reference in its own way like Saucy... and since Naruto doesn't like veggies... I suppose it's fine.
(4): Remember they're five-year olds! There is no way, they could go on missions or kill people! It's a just a game I came up with; the Spy is the one who finds out the position or plants the traps and is the least suspecting and such, for getting the target into the desirable area. Assassin is the one who goes for the kill, activates the traps, sets off everything... They use water balloons, paint/bombs, cans, balloons and other items that are not lethal and only meant to prank. As for the Hyuga they mentioned, it's Neji or other Hyuga members; they never suspect Naruto considering he is a prankster, but they have no 'beef' against him... but Sasuke... hehe. He's an Uchiha, no other explanation is needed.
Awesome, eh? I liked this chapter... my brother did so too. Haha. Hope you guys too! Review, Follow, Favorite it! Do something! Or I don't know... [insert threat here] See ya, bye! :)
