Morning seemed to come all too soon for Naruto. Especially considering that it was still dark outside when he was awoken by a sound coming from the kitchen. Guessing it was just Karasu getting something to drink he quickly ignored it and was about to go back to sleep when he heard more sounds coming from the kitchen. He dragged himself out of bed to see what was going on in his kitchen at 6 in the morning when he didn't need to be up until 8.
As he came into the kitchen he was welcomed with the most delicious smells. He then spotted Karasu standing by the stove with a blue apron wrapped around her middle.
It was at this time that Naruto then notice exactly how thin Karasu really was. Even though he had gone to get her clothes the day before he just never really took notice of it.
Karasu then turned around and gave a start at seeing Naruto standing in the doorway to the kitchen. A sheepish look came upon her face as she looked at him.
"What are you doing this early in the morning, Karasu?" Naruto asked.
"I'm sorry Naruto-sama." The day before she had gotten into the habit of adding a sama to the end of his name when she was flustered of when she thought she did something wrong.
"I never did need much sleep and to thank you I thought I would make you some breakfast." Karasu answered.
It was then that Naruto noticed a lump of dough on the counter off to the side of the stove that he had failed to notice earlier.
"But why this early I don't need to even wake up for two more hours?" Naruto asked bewildered that she would do that for him.
"Well then I timed it perfectly. I was planning to make you some cinnamon rolls. The rolls take quite a while to prepare and then to bake and cover in icing." Karasu said with pride that she had done something right.
"Wow! They take that long just to make. Thanks for taking the time to do this for me Karasu." Naruto said in awe of how long it would take to make food, this coming from the boy who never spent no longer than a few minutes to prepare food.
"Your welcome Naruto- sama."
"How many times do I need to tell you just Naruto." Naruto said in exasperation.
"Sorry."
"Well since I am up now what can I do to help and no arguments I want to help." Naruto said as Karasu was about to protest.
"Well you could."
~Later that morning~
Naruto and Karasu rushed out of the apartment to make it to the bridge on time. Not that it would matter for Kakashi was always about three hours late no matter what anyone did. As Karasu was locking the door with a cinnamon roll in her mouth Naruto was hopping down the hallway to the stairs trying to put on a sock with a cinnamon roll in his roll as well.
They had started to make the rolls together when Naruto opened the flour spilling it all over the kitchen and covering everything in a white powder. They had spent 30 minutes cleaning up while the rolls baked. By this time it was already 7:30 and they were still in their night clothes. Unfortunately they had fallen asleep after cleaning up and didn't wake up for 30 min. Thus, leading to a mad rush to finish the rolls as they got ready for the day.
Naruto and Karasu came running up to the bridge. On the bridge you could see Sakura trying to talk to Sasuke.
"Ohayo Sakura-chan!" Naruto called as they came to a stop.
Sakura stopped talking to Sasuke to greet Naruto. She then tuned to where Naruto's voice had come from and stopped at the sight of Karasu.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were here. Might I ask who are you?" Sakura asked suddenly curious.
"I. I 'm. um"
"This is Karasu, Sakura. I found her in the forest the night before last. She's staying at my place for the time being." Naruto suddenly stepped in for Karasu. Who looked relieved she didn't have to explain it.
This news even snagged the great Sasuke's attention as Sakura's jaw dropped to the ground. Both Sakura and Sasuke regarded Karasu with a careful eye. She did look better than she did the day before. Now she had on the dark blue dress that much resembled the one that Sakura was wearing at that time.
"Your Sakura right? And you must be Sasuke? I have heard many good things about you from Naruto-sama." Karasu said with a bow toward the other two.
"Naruto-sama? Why do you call him Naruto-sama?" asked Sakura.
"Because Naruto-sama was the first one who was this nice to me. I wasn't liked much in my village and Naruto-sama was the first to show me real kindness." Karasu said defending Naruto.
"Karasuuuu, how many times do I have to tell you stop calling me Naruto- sama? You are my friend call me Naruto." Naruto whined.
"Sorry."
"Why weren't you liked very much in your village? What about your parents?" asked Sakura.
"I never had any parents. And I don't think the village likes me because of Urufu." Said Karasu sadly.
"I meant to ask you Karasu. Who is Urufu? I heard you talking to them last night." Questioned Naruto.
"Oh. um. Urufu is. the . demon that was sealed inside me when I was born." Karasu said in a rush.
