"... So Harry... how long are you gonna hog my bed?" Naruto asked sleepily from his position on the floor, where he fell after accidentally kicking Harry and getting kicked back.
"At least until you are really a genin... don't you have some picture to take today or somethin?" Harry slurred from where he was sprawled all over the bed. Feebly he reached out and tried to yank the covers over him, but as they were wrapped around Naruto, he was having a little trouble. Finally he gave up and just let his hand flop down, to tired to move it further.
"... umm... today is the day we take pictures for the bingo book." Naruto answered before letting out a face slitting yawn.
"... cool..." Harry mumbled. Deciding he was uncomfortable in his position, Harry wiggled around until he finally ended up with his head hanging over the edge of the bed, one foot planted on the wall, and the other foot resting on the pillow. Sighing in contentment, he closed his eyes and was moments away from drifting off again when suddenly Naruto sat straight up with no warning.
Unfortunately as he was right under Harry, he managed to bang their heads together resulting in them both swearing and grabbing their heads in pain.
"Ok, ok I'm up. No need to get violent." Harry grumbled still rubbing the back of his head.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to but I just had the most brilliant idea for the picture!" Naruto exclaimed, one hand still rubbing his forehead.
"Cool, I hope it doesn't involve scary amounts of pain and a scary facial expression with matching pose." Harry said sarcastically.
"..." Naruto just looked at Harry in silence.
Harry blinked at him. "Oh come on! You know the book is a representation of all your achievements and is a vital intelligence resource for the village! And you want to look like that in it! You won't be able to change the picture for at least a year if not more... depending on how slow you mature." Harry mumbled the last bit under his breath.
"Hey! It's not my fault that Everyone in my class are freakishly fast growers!" Naruto yelled, reaching over and whapping Harry up side the head with a pillow.
Harry laughed. "Rrright that's why you're the shortest person in your class. It has nothing to do with the fact that you grow slower than snails move."
Naruto humphed before turning and pretending to ignore Harry in favor of staring at his wall. It was such a nice wall. Even though the paint on it was faided and even peeled off in some places, at least it never called him short, or laughed at him. Really what more could you ask of a wall? It really was the best wall in the world.
"Ok Naruto, I'm sorry I laughed at you. You can stop starring at the wall now. See you're causing the paint to peel!" Harry teased causing Naruto to gasp in rage and turn to fiercely at him.
"You are mean Harry." Naruto said pouting slightly and crossing his arms.
Harry just smiled, "Yes I know. But to make up for it I have decided to help you with your foolish prank. What do you want me to do?"
Naruto grinned and leaned in to tell an amused Harry his plot.
... five... hours... later...
"You... want me to take the picture of you looking like that?" The photographer asked grumpily.
"Yeah! Go for it!" Naruto exclaimed from his seat on the stool.
"Jeez... Youll be sorry. Okay say 'cheese!'" and with a click the picture was taken.
... when... Hokage... finally... caught... Naruto...
Slightly nervous at what his punishment for the stunt would be, Naruto tried to distract the Hokage with meaningless words. Thankfully before Naruto could shove his foot any further into his mouth than it already was, the Hokage interrupted him and told him to take the picture over. Slightly relieved that that was all he would have to do, Naruto pretended to be shocked.
"What concerns me more is why you chose not to wear your hitai-ate... and what's that little black cat doing in the picture?" Sarutobi asked slightly confused. In the picture Naruto had white paint covering his face and hands, with red swirl accents, sitting with his hand up and face in a menacing grimace. And if you looked closely you could see the face of a black cat poking out from behind his left shoulder.
Naruto pouted. "I don't know, it's just there. And I didn't wear the headband because I didn't want to damage it. I'll start wearing it after the ceremony tomorrow."
After that Sarutobi lectured Naruto on how inappropriate his picture was. Harry found it funny that the Hokage said almost the exact same thing he had said earlier. They were interrupted when there was a noticeable creak of the door cracking open. Suddenly a midget... little boy, slammed into the room yelling something about old guards or somethin before falling flat on his face.
Following right behind the kid was a snooty looking guy dressed all in black. As soon as he entered the room, the kid got back up talking about traps. The uptight man called the kid Honored grandson and said there were no traps.
Naruto stared at the scene bemused, "What's going on? Who's the kid?"
Honestly Naruto you should pay more attention to what goes on around you. Obviously the kid is Sarutobi's grandson, and he just tried to attack his grandfather for some reason. And I think the 'uptight' guy is the kid's tutor or something like that. Harry explained from his vantage place on the tree outside the window. He had been watching the entire encounter, and was vastly amused by what he was seeing.
"Kid?" The kid said incredulously as he finally noticed Naruto sitting in front of the Hokage. "Aha, so you tripped me! It was you! Right?!"
Naruto was incensed, angry he leaped from his seat and grabbed the kid by the collar of his shirt pulling him up to his tiptoes. "You fell over your own two feet!!" He yelled into the kid's face.
"Unhand him Naruto! That boy happens to be the grandson of our revered Lord the Third Hokage!" The tutor person yelled out.
Naruto just looked at Sarutobi in disbelief, as Sarutobi tried to create a new jutsu that would allow him to melt through the floor.
The kid still not understanding just who he was messing with, mouthed off with a, "So? Take your best shot! I dare you!"
And not one to back down from a challenge, Naruto did just that, punching the kid in the head. "Like I care stupid!" Naruto yelled, as the kid yelped in pain.
Naruto you softy, you held back. Harry commented in amusement.
Well yeah, he is still just a kid, a spoiled one, but still just a kid. YOu don't expect me to beat up brats do you? Naruto said sarcastically.
Then why hit him at all?
Because he didn't think I would do it.
Oh... still next time punch harder after all, even though he's a brat, he's still training to be a ninja and if you go easy on him now it'll only hurt him later. And he's really annoying. Harry teased as he began to climb down the tree sensing that the meeting would be over soon.
... ten... minutes... later...
Naruto was getting seriously annoyed, ever since he left the Hokage tower that bratty kid had been following him. Which meant he couldn't go train or practice magic or work on improving any of the jutsus that know knew he knew. Finally fed up he turned and yelled at the kid to stop following him. Seriously, the little moron was even trying to hide behind a cloth screen to match the fence that was turned sideways.
The kid then blabbered on about how awesome Naruto's ninja skills were and how he lived up to his reputation (which told Naruto that the kid had no idea who he was), and asked Naruto to train him. Specifically asked him to teach him the sexy no jutsu.
Naruto took two seconds to think about it then grinned evilly.
Naruto you can't seriously be thinking about doing this! He's a kid, you'll be corrupting a youth! Couldn't you teach him something more useful... like how to properly use that disguise screen? Harry asked as he discreetly followed the pair.
"How can I refuse." Naruto said grinning at the kid and answering them both at the same time.
"Thanks boss, you're the greatest!" The kid yelled following Naruto again as Naruto started to walk off.
To Harry's horror Naruto didn't settle for just teaching the kid how to do the jutsu, no he had to hep him get 'research.' Naruto first had the kid try to transform into a random female citizen. then he led him to a porn shop to look at examples of 'female beauty.' And then he had to lead the impressionable boy into the women's locker room of the public baths.
Thankfully by then, Naruto was ready to give up on 'research' as he no longer had a bruise free area any where on his body. So he led the kid to a secluded area and had him practice and refine his technique, until he could get it right. Incidentally he also found out that the kid's name was Konohamaru, and that the kid felt over shadowed by his grandfather. That was the reason he tried to attack him so much and wanted so badly to be the next Hokage.
"You idiot! It won't be easy to win the Hokage name!... You don't get it just because you want it! If you want to be the Hokage that badly..."
"Well? What?!" Konohamaru asked when Naruto paused.
"...You'll have to get through me first!" Naruto exclaimed grinning at the kid.
I guess he isn't so bad... for a brat. It's gotta be tough having such a famous grandfather. Harry commented, once again he was watching from a tree.
Yeah, he's been spoiled and ignore kinda. LIfe as a ninja isn't gonna be easy for him. Naruto said looking at the kid a little kinder now.
That was when Naruto and Harry both felt an angry chakra signature closing in on them, soon enough the tutor appeared and he was indeed angry.
The snooty man tried to force Konohamaru to follow him back, but he insisted on staying. Finally Konohamaru executed a perfectly formed sexy no jutsu in an effort to knock the man out. Unfortunately the man was less of a pervert than most men and was only minimally affected.
Naruto was angry on his new friend's behave and stepped up to challenge the guy. He performed the kage bushin no jutsu creating a few dozen clones. The guy was over confident in his abilities and was sure he could take Naruto on, so he walked into the middle of the clones and got in a fighting position.
Naruto just smirked mentally before performing the sexy no jutsu, all his clones copying the move. Then his clones all convered on the tutor, hanging off him and calling him 'master.' The guy was unable to handle such levels of sexiness and female nudity, and passed out twitching.
Naruto cancelled his jutsus and grinned. Naruto I may never look at you the same again. And you did it in front of a child! Harry said in mock outrage and disappointment.
Heh, it's not like it's not something he never saw before. Naruto grumbled.
Only because of that 'research' you took him on earlier. Before today he was a totally normal ninja kid, now he's on his way to being a class A pervert. Harry said laughing now as he gave up pretending to be mad.
No way. I saw the same things at a younger age, and I'm not a pervert. Naruto said making perfect logic in his mind.
Harry slapped a paw over his eyes. That's because you had no idea what it was and I wasn't there to watch out for you yet. And the only reason you aren't a pervert now is because you have become immune to the sight of naked women. And hey pay attention the kid is sulking.
Naruto looked at the kid and Harry was right there was something wrong with him.
"Blast it I failed to beat Professor four-eyes again!" The kid said angrily with tears of frustration in his eyes. "All I want is a name that everyone will respect! And I want it right now!"
"You think wanting it is all it takes? Dream on!" Naruto said giving the boy a whack on the back of his head. "You're talking about taking the name hokage! That's the greatest shinobi in the village, the one everyone! My whole life, Its been one rotten thing after another! I even doubted myself! Only one person treats me with any kind of respect. And even he... was almost impossible to win over!!" Naruto told the kid, trying to make him understand that to be hokage, he would have to go through many obstacles in his path and that it wouldn't be easily done.
"Are you ready to make a commitment?" Naruto looked at Konohamaru seriously.
"... commitment...?" He asked wanting to understand.
"Everybody, and I do mean everybody, has the highest respect for the Honored Hokage name!" Naruto started to walk away, but he turned his head back to grin cheekily back. "Do you get it? There are no short cuts!!"
Konohamaru had a stunned look on his face, as if he finally realized something important. After that he announced that he wouldn't be Naruto's disciple anymore, and that from now on they would be rivals for the title hokage. Naruto just smiled at him and agreed that when the time came he would fight Konohamaru for the title.
Why do I sudenly have the feeling that we are going to see a lot more of that kid from now on? Harry asked in a slightly laughing tone.
Maybe its those latent seer abilities of yours finally kicking in. Naruto teased him, Making Harry snort in derision. He's an ok kid, I don't mind helping him out. After all he is at a disadvantage.
And why is that? Because you are older and already a genin? Harry asked honestly curious.
No, its because all he has is that crappy tutor while I had you. If cats could blush, Harry would be beet red by now. As it was he was rendered speechless for a few moments.
Sometimes Naruto, you can be real sweet. Harry said quietly, then he gave a cat grin. So who should we prank now? We haven't pranked the Anbu recently.
Yeah they still have no idea how all their masks came to life and tried to bite them on the nose. I still can't believe you did that Harry, and I saw it with my own two eyes. Naruto grinned at the memory of all the Anbu panicking when their masks came to life, and they all tried to 'kill' the evil masks.
For days afterward all Anbu refused to wear masks with animal faces, instead they were seen in plain white, unadorned, play masks. They didn't start wearing their masks again until the Hokage threatened to have them all demoted to chunin. Even then you could see some Anbu going around with a kunai held up threateningly towards their faces to scare their masks into behaving.
Harry landed on Naruto's shoulder, breaking him out of his reverie. Ok Anbu it is, this time lets make their clothes attack them...
... end... of... chapter...
ok next chap is the whole Sasuke and Naruto are pushed together and accidently kiss scene, and I am having trouble deciding how it should go:
A) Harry is there, sees it happen, flies into a jealous rage and attacks Sasuke
B) for once Harry is not there(because really he can't be there all the time 24/7) and only hears about it later when Naruto tells him about it, and he 'comforts' Naruto
C) Harry is there, realises he wants Naruto for himself, doesn't attack Sasuke in class, comforts Naruto, and gets his revenge in the dead of night.
Pleas review and vote, I may write the other scenarios out as a deleted scene or something anyways but I would appreciate the help choosing what to use in the main story. Thank you.
