Caspian-The Lost Senju
Chapter 13
The next morning Caspian awoke to a oinking, he opened his eyes to see the form of Tonton right up to his face. Surprised he fell out of his chair, and onto the ground. He heard a soft chuckle and saw Kurotsuchi.
"How did you get in here?" He asked
"The pig let me in." Kurotsuchi
As Tonton gave an oink of pride. Caspian shook his head, "Give me a few minutes." He said as walked out of the kitchen. Kurotsuchi looked around the room and saw the almost empty bottle of sake, and a frown appeared on her face. For the past 6 years she had kept the image of Caspian as the boy who had given her ice-cream, and stopped that ninja from insulating her. To think that is less than a decade he would become strong enough to take down a Kage, but like all strong ninja he had his vice, it seemed for now that sake was his. Kurotsuchi would have to see if she could switch his vice to something more pleasurable for the both of them, just like she saw in her more intimate dreams. The blush that had found its way onto her cheeks disappeared when Caspian reentered the room in dark clothes.
The burial was a silent affair, a hole was dug, the body put in, no words were spoken. The only action that took place was that Kurotsuchi took Caspian's hand in her own. Caspian gave a grateful smile as the two walked out of the graveyard.
"I have to go meet with the Hokage. We'll talk later." Kurotsuchi said as they returned to the entrance to the Senju Compound.
Caspian nodded, "Thank you."
Kurotsuchi nodded as she left, a few moments later Naruto came bursting through the gate.
"Caspian you won't believe what happened on my mission." The blonde said
The Senju smiled, "Let's go and talk about it."
"After getting ramen right?" Naruto asked
Caspian's smile widen, "Of course after getting ramen."
When the pair were six they decided that there "meeting spot" would be the Hokage monument. But then the most important question raised its head, which Hokage head would they sit on the Seconds, or the Fourth's? After much arguing, the two decided on the Third's since it was in-between the Second and the Fourth.
It is there the young ninjas now sat overlooking the village. Caspian was eating his ramen, while Naruto was telling the tale of the fight against the Seven Swordsman Zabuza and his partner Haku.
"Then the villagers showed and ran away the bandits, and the village was saved." Naruto said jumping up and down.
"Huh, that is a good story Naruto." Caspian said
"So what happened on your mission?" Naruto said
"Oh nothing really special. We found the spy, it turned out to be Kurotsuchi and she came back with us." Caspian said leaving out the part about his attacking a Kage.
"Sounds boring. How about a spar?" Naruto asked. Caspian nodded and two left the Hokage monument taking there ramen with them of course.
The two boys soon found themselves at a simple training ground with grass and a few trees.
"Shadow Clone Justu!" Naruto shouted as dozens and dozens of copies of the blonde filled the area.
Caspian smirked kunai in hand as the army attacked him. The water user cut them down one by one, until he caught one clone by the wrist and saw a seal of its hand, A strong paralyzing seal, one touch and I'm done for. Naruto you are truly becoming a seal master. The Senju heir thought as his smirk only grew, if Naruto playing rough so could he. "Water Style: Water Tornado" He shouted a huge surge of water surrounded Caspian pushing the mass of clones away causing them to pop. The next moment Caspian appeared in front of Naruto kunai to his throat, only to have his smirk disappear when the clone said.
"Multi Exploding Clone Justu".
Caspian's eyes widen as a huge explosion overtook the field. As the smoke cleared it showed Caspian in a giant bubble made of water.
"Damn I was so close!" Naruto shouted as he jumped out from behind a tree as Caspian freed himself. "Next time I'll get you, but now I have go meet Prey Sage." Naruto said with a wave goodbye.
Not soon after the blonde left Caspian spoke, "You can come out Hinata." With an epp the blue haired heiress came out from behind a tree. "I thought with Naruto on your team you would stop with the stalking."
The Hygua's blush deepened, "I was not stalking, I saw you two heading here and I was going to talk to you two, but then the spar started and I didn't want to interrupt."
"While thank you for that. Do you still like cinnamon buns?" The Hygua's wide eyed gaze was enough of an answer.
A few minutes later the two clan heirs found themselves at a sweets shop, where Hinata was scarfing down cinnamons buns. Caspian was simply smiling.
"So how was your mission?" He asked
The question caused the Hygua to stop eating, "It went well thanks to Asuma- sensei, Naruto-kun, and Shikamaru-san." Her voice was low and quiet.
"That is not what Naruto says, according to him you protected the client, and helped defend him and Shikamaru from Haku's senbon with your eyes" Caspian said. The Hyuga still slumped her shoulders. Caspian reached out and put his arm on her shoulder. "Hinata sometimes the hero is the person who simply does there job, and you did. Your mission was to protect the client, and you did that. You also protected your teammates that is all that can be asked of you."
"I'm not sure Neji will see it that way." Hinata said
"If he doesn't I'll beat some sense into him." Caspian said
Hinata looked at Caspian, "Don't you mean "talk" some sense into him?"
Caspian smirked, "I know what I said, and now let me walk you home."
After Caspian escorted Hinata to the Hyuga compound he returned to walking around the village, when he saw Isaribi, and Sai walking toward him.
"Hey what are you two up too?" Caspian asked his teammates
"Well in a form of bonding Isaribi decided that she, and I should have breakfast together, then go see a film, and now we are going shopping." Sai said with his fake smile.
"That sounds more like a dat-" Caspian was cut off as he felt Isaribi's killer intent. "I mean have a good day."
"Yamato- sensei wants us to meet at training ground 24 at noon." Sai said to the retreating Caspian who gave him a thumbs up.
It was noon as Team 24 sat around waiting for Yamato who appeared in front of them.
"What do you know about the chunin exams?" The sensei asked his students. His response was three mirroring smirks that almost sent a shock down his spine. The day had just gotten more interesting.
Next time training, and meeting some teams. As always thank you for the support.
