Chapter 3: Snow Storm
*(\/)*/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\*(\/)*
Sasuke glared at Naruto who was sitting in front of him. They both were sitting indian style on the floor. "WHAT!" Sasuke finally yelled. Naruto chuckled before he continued, "I wanted to know if you wanted to stay with me and Iruka-sensei for the holidays. I mean its not like you have anyone and it would be fun the three of us." Naruto's grin slowly died down when he glanced at Sasuke. Sasuke just stared at him. * What in the world? Hmmm. Maybe I could stay but I better ask Iruka first.* Is what the black haired boy thought.
Then suddenly they heard the winds pick up outside. Naruto ran up to the window and gazed out. He couldn't see anything but snow, no lights, no people, nothing. "so this is the storm that the Mountain Village warned us about." Naruto whispered in awe. Sasuke just stared out in the abyss of darkness the window showed. It felt familiar. "HEY! Do you think Iruka- sensei is alright? I hope he gets here before the storm gets too bad." Naruto jumped away from the window. "I'm sure he'll be just fine remember he's a chunin." Sasuke did feel a little worried though.
*(\/)*/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\*(\/)*
Iruka smiled at Kakashi. He was about to answer the jounin when the door flew open and there stood a man with the ugliest haircut but that was nothing compared to the smaller clone standing beside him shivering. "Gai?" Iruka told Kakashi that they would continue the conversation later. "Hey Iruka and Kakashi. I saw a light up here so I thought I should warn you that the storm has picked up so you should head home now."
"Oh, I better hurry so Naruto doesn't worry about me." Iruka started grabbing his things. He looked at Kakashi whose smile never left his face. * I wonder what he's really thinking. * Iruka thought to himself. "Kakashi?" The jounin looked over at Iruka from his conversation with Gai, "Would you like to come over? We could finish our conversation." Kakashi nodded with a smirk and turned to Gai who had vanished leaving a shivering Rock Lee in his place. "He said he would find you when he thinks of a new challenge for the both of you." Is all the boy said before vanishing on his own.
They hurried through the snow that had started to become hail. Iruka noticed that it was harder for him to breath outside in the cold. That was one reason he hated this season, he also had troubles with normal functions such as breathing due to how cold it got. Kakashi had gotten ahead of Iruka before he noticed the chunin had slowed down. When he looked behind him he didn't see anyone behind him. "IRUKA!!" Kakashi yelled as he made a back track. Iruka had started to walk, it became really hard for him to move his feet. * This is not good I got to keep moving. * Iruka thought. He took another step and collapsed. Everything went black. Kakashi looked around but it was hard to see through the snow. He finally spotted Iruka almost totally covered in snow. He grabbed the young man in his arms and sped towards Iruka's house. "Crap." Was the only thing he said.
*(\/)*/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\*(\/)*
"Sasuke! That hurts!" The black room could only be distinguished through noises coming from two boys. "Wait just a second! I'm almost done." The lights turn on. "Wow, that felt good after you really got into it." The blond boy smirked at his companion. "I told you, HEY! What do you mean after I got really into it? It's called acupuncture idiot! I don't want to know what the readers.. I mean what you are thinking!" The black haired boy yelled.
"You said your back had been bothering you so I gave you a lesson in acupuncture." Sasuke glared at Naruto who was still make funny noises. "How did you learn how to heal people?" Naruto inquired from Sasuke. "It's not healing, it relaxing your muscles idiot." With that Sasuke got up and headed towards the restroom. Naruto had gotten worried about Iruka not being home yet so he set his mind on other things. Sasuke told him Iruka would be cold when he finally came home so Naruto made ramen and kept it heated. It was amazing the blond was able to keep himself from eating his favorite cuisine but he just kept himself busy.
Naruto looked out the window. "Sasuke!" he yelled as the other boy ran into the room from the shower with a kunai in his hand. "What is it?" He looked around the room to see no one was there. "Naruto! What are you trying to pull? I was in the shower!" The blonde's face was red from laughter. "BWAHAHAHAHA! You're an idiot! I was just going to tell you the weather has gotten worse." Sasuke had a look of bloodlust. He would get his revenge on Naruto.
Sasuke started heading back so he could put some cloths on when he felt Naruto's arms wrap around his neck. "Sorry. I hope you still stay, I don't like being alone in this house." Sasuke began to blush when he continued walking forcing the arms to let go. "I would have to stay now anyway, because the storm has gotten bad. Don't be such a baby this is just a house you know!" And without even glancing at Naruto he went to change. Naruto sat back down when he thought he heard footsteps running. He turned to the door when it swung open.
"Naruto?" Yelled Kakashi; with Iruka still in his arms. "Kakashi-sensei? Ahh! What happened to Iruka?" The boy yelled back as he ran to aid his teacher. "We need some warm blankets hurry!" Kakashi yelled as he placed Iruka on the couch. Naruto hurried back with tons of blankets and a few pillows. After Kakashi stripped Iruka of all his wet garments; leaving him in his boxers and undershirt; he wrapped Iruka up in the covers. Sasuke got bowl full of warm ramen and handed it to Kakashi who kindly refused it, by the time they all got settled around the chunin the quiet air was broken. "What happened to Iruka-sensei?"
Iruka laid peaceful on the couch while Kakashi explained. "So you see, I really don't know he just collapsed." Naruto was really worried and began to shake when Sasuke put a blanket over him. "Kakashi. What do you think Iruka is dreaming of when he looks this peaceful?" The blond turned to glance at his sensei then back at Iruka. "Hopefully fond memories." The jounin smiled.

Iruka's Dream
"Iruka darling wake up, its time for school." The smooth voice sounded rich with love. "Mom?" "Yes honey." "Do I have to? I hate school!" The little boy got out from under the covers to peer at his smiling mother. She sighed with a grin then led the boy to his dresser so he could get ready. He looked in the mirror revealing a small 10 year old. "I cant believe I'm 10." He moaned, "I still look like I could be 6." "Hey it took me awhile to grow and now look at me." The cheery voice came out from behind the door. "Morning Dad. Do you have a meeting with the lord Hokage today?" Iruka finished putting on his shoes. "Why yes son, How did you know?" The father squinted at his son. "You never wake up this early. You're a lazy bum." The boy smiled and then ran out when he saw the clock. "Honey! Did you hear that." The man whined as his wife agreed with her child.
"Iruka! Happy Birthday Son your turning 11!" Two happy parents screamed at the child who was beaming with joy. "Hey Mom and Dad? Can I leave early?" The boy asked as he put on a new sweater. "Why honey?" "Because me and some kids from school were going to practice jitsu at the field." He began to plead with his parents. "Okay but remember to be careful the village is on a warning since that 'thing' arrived." "Don't worry mom! No fox can get me! Plus it only comes out at night and I promise to be back before dark." With that the brown haired boy jumped from his seat and ran towards the field. "Sorry I'm late guys!" "Its okay since it's your birthday." Winked a blond girl. Iruka blushed then he and his friends began fighting.
The fighting however suddenly stopped when a teenager fell from the sky. "Crap" said the teen as he picked himself up. "Are you okay?" Iruka ran over to him while his friends stayed close but behind. "Yeah kid, I'm fine." Then from out of nowhere another teen appeared. "Kakashi! How dare you make fun of my green suit and my hair in front of all those people!" The teen stared at Kakashi with rage. "Okay Gai lets settle this with a thumb war!" Kakashi yelled at guy who seemed to agree. " 1 2 3 4 I declare a thumb war."
This would have looked like a serious dual if it wasn't for the fact they were playing a child's game. Kakashi soon declared himself the victor as Gai walked away mumbling to himself about having to run around the village a billion times on his hands. Iruka was the only one who wanted to stay and see the outcome of the battle so all his friends were gone. Kakashi looked over at the kid. "Hatake Kakashi" said the teen as he knelt next to the boy. "Call me Iruka, Hatake-san." The boy bounced with pride getting to meet an elder. "Then call me Kakashi."
They both sat there chatting about a few things. "Wow so you're an anbu! But you're so young." Iruka glanced at his new friend. "Yeah I became a chunin when I was around half your age." Kakashi smirked at the amazed look in the boy's eyes. Their conversation was interrupted quickly when the heard loud crashes in the distance. "Iruka, it was nice meeting you but I got to go the fox is here," with that Kakashi vanished and Iruka ran home hoping that his parents weren't worried. When he arrived home he found a note saying that dinner was on the table and that they were called and should be back home soon. Iruka's face went pale. "But people die when they go against the fox" Iruka whimpered as he ran out the door.
"Kakashi! Get that boy out of here!" yelled an older man you appeared to be the leader of the anbu team. "NO! WAIT! LET ME GO! Mom and Dad.THEY'RE STILL FIGHTING THE DEMON!" Iruka cried as Kakashi grabbed the boy and vanished. "Are you hurt?" Kakashi stared down at Iruka who was crying. "Nothing I can't handle NOW GO BACK AND DIE LIKE THEY DID!" Iruka yelled as blood came down his face. Kakashi smirked and vanished after he left Iruka with a nurse who cleaned the bandages.

Naruto's POV
I woke the next morning to find Sasuke had shared the same blanket as me. Not that I'm complaining since it was very cold but. he was really close to me. I turned over to see if Iruka had maybe woken up but to my surprise I found Kakashi mumbling stuff about not being able to sleep so Iruka better wake up or Kakashi would kill him. When I yawned is when Kakashi realized I had woken up.
Poor Kakashi-sensei, he could normally tell I was waking up before I became awake but he was so worried that he seemed to have dimmed his senses just to stay awake. "Sensei, you should go to bed. I'll watch him and if anything happens I promise to come and get you." Kakashi just stared at me for a second, "No thank you Naruto. See Iruka owes me an answer to something I had asked him earlier, so I don't plan on letting him off easy." The way Kakashi smiled at me seemed off but I decided it was going to be weird with Iruka sick.
"Kakashi!" I yelled but before I could finish I felt a hand cover my mouth. I looked up and there was Sasuke pointing at Kakashi. Kakashi finally fell asleep. When I finally nodded that I understood he let go and followed me to my problem. "We are frozen in." I pointed to the door that appeared to have ice coming in through the bottom. Sasuke just nudged it off and looked out the window. The windows were now covered with a thick layer of ice that made it incredibly hard to see through but not impossible. You could still see it was snowing outside. I turned to see Sasuke was looking through all the food. " There's food in the pantry I think." I quickly jumped on the counters that made me tower over Sasuke. It was nice. I tried to open the pantry door but ended up using too much force. Why does this always happen to me? But don't worry I am a genin I can catch myself.
The only problem was, I forgot Sasuke was behind me and he just happened to be in the way of my landing area. Darn you Sasuke! When I finally let myself opens my eyes I was under him. That's really weird I should be on top! "Idiot! I was trying to get out the way and you still took me down with you! What's your problem?" Sasuke yelled at me. I didn't notice at first but I had my hand clutched to his shirt. That's funny how'd you get there? I laughed at my hand but looked up to find Sasuke's face was really close. REALLY REALLY CLOSE. He's not bad looking but he's my rival. I like him but I also hate him. So why do I want to. We kissed. For a long time I didn't know if I had pulled him in or if he was the troublemaker but we kissed.
