The first chapter, re-written. Enjoy.
Disclaimer: I only wish I owned Naruto. But I cannot draw that well.
Or think up a plot to save my life... ;;;
†
When you think of Chibi, what swirls out of the mist of your mind? Might you see cute, small, deforming and glompable?
Or do you see small, innocent, disobedience seekers and evil?
Some are brave enough to see the latter of the two.
Some people are crazy enough to write about it.
Be prepared.

Naruto was sleeping peacefully, tangled in the sheets of his bed; moonlight streaming between carelessly slung shut curtains. A sheen of sweat lingered on his temple, signifying a bad dream. His chest moved up and down quickly, as something began to slowly appear next to him.
The crystal clear image of perfection, of cuteness, of-
Aw heck, it was really weird, ok?
So, the small form disappeared in a blink, scuttling along the floor quickly, planning on a fun time of terrorizing the peacefully sleeping residents of Konoha.
Dun dun dun...
†
The residents of Konoha slept peacefully, sane, hardworking people lying in the land of slumber, oblivious of the world around them.
Hatake Kakashi was not sane, therefore, he was wide awake and wandering the rooftops of the sleeping village quietly.
Actually, more than being insane, he had a very uneasy feeling in his gut, that something horrible was about to happen...
Or something already had...
†
Iruka awoke much earlier than he had been planning, something heavy and warm sitting on his stomach. He did not open his eyes, only groped around for the lamp and his clock.
Light flooded the room from the small lamp, and he glanced at the clock. 2.01am. He glanced at the small figure on his chest, large pools of identical aqua staring unblinkingly into his own brown eyes.
...
...
...
"GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
†
And that was Kakashi's cue.
"Iruka!" He yelled valiantly; popping open the window of his friend's house and jumping in, narrowly missing the lamp.
"Na-Naruto..." Iruka whispered, ignoring the Jounin hopping around next to the bed, anxiously asking what was wrong. "You scared me. You look weird... I told you instant ramen would stunk your growth."
The supposed 'Naruto' tilted its head to one side cutely, in a confused manner, shutting both Iruka and Kakashi up.
"Naruto?" Whispered the silver haired man. His eyes grew large, and sparkly, shoujo bubbles appeared around him. (In pink, aqua and violet.) "Oh... CHIBI, CHIBI NARUTO!" He squealed, and commenced attempting to glomp the foot high figure.
Naruto squeaked and jumped out the way, just in time, obviously terrified of the silver haired man. Quickly, obviously in an attempt to protect himself, his squeaky voice yelled (as much as he could): "Kage Bushin No Jutsu!"
And a billion chibi Naruto's appeared.
Kakashi twitched.
Iruka twitched.
Kakashi twitched once more for good measure.
Then broke out a huge grin.
Because we all know just how effective a billion Chibi Naruto's would be to the fangirl mind.
"NARUTO-CHAAAAAN!!!" And he flopped down on the nearest unsuspecting chibi.
The poor, defenseless Naruto, whom was just flopped upon, disappeared and the original Naruto was left to make his escape through the open window and out into the night. Never mind how he got into the house in the first place.
"Aww..." Kakashi scratched his head. "I wanted a Chibi to take home..."
Iruka rolled his eyes.
†
"NARUTO!! You jerk! How dare you enter my house without permission!! Get out, DAMNIT!!!" Sasuke ran frantically, and rather un-Sasuke-like, around his house, chasing a very hyperactive ball of giggling Chibi energy.
"SHIT!" He yelled, as he tripped over a random item, most likely to have fallen from its original resting spot during the chase. "Get back here you little—" Sasuke leapt into the air, over his couch, and tacked the orange blob. "Gotcha!" He yelled, struggling to comfortably hold the bundle in his arms.
Chibi Naruto ceased to struggle (for the time being) and looked up at Sasuke as he glared down at it. "What in the devils name are you doing in my house at 3am!?" He asked angrily.
The little Naruto squeaked and licked Sasuke's nose.
The immediate reaction from the last remaining member of the Uchiha clan was shock. Then horror. "Wah!" He dropped it and crawled frantically away from the giggling form. "What did you do that for!?"
The little Naruto just grinned and crawled over to Sasuke, climbing up his nightshirt and resting in the crook between his chin and chest. "Ai!" He squeaked, and then jumped into Sasuke's lap, promptly falling asleep.
†
Sasuke awoke the next morning to miniscule snoring on his lap. He looked down blearily and wondered how in the world such a small Naruto caused him so much pain. He was definitely feeling the 'stumble-around-stupidly-in-the-dark-to-catch-Naruto" escapade he had ventured on the previous night.
He stumbled up, grabbing the form before it fell and went on the way to do his morning hygienic duties before scurrying off to meet his teammates.
†
Sakura squealed. "Oh my god! Sasuke-kun, it's so cute!" She squealed and hugged the small figure tightly, assuming it was just a plushie. "Is it for me? Thank you!" I mean, she thought to herself, why else would Sasuke be carrying around a plushie on his shoulder?
"Sakura... It needs to breathe, you know." Sasuke pointed out helpfully. Sakura gasped in surprise and held Chibi Naruto out at arms length, treating him like a small cat.
"Oh my god... It's ALIVE?!"
"It's time you notice that you like it so much, even though it resembles a very small Naruto."
Sakura, in turn, dropped it. "Ew!!"
Chibi Naruto landed on his feet; then dropped to his butt and scratched behind its ear with its foot.
"Awwww..." Sakura's motherly/fangirl instincts took over, and the bent to pick up the small form again. "So cute..." Cradling it against her chest, she closed her eyes and smiled. (Insert more Shoujo crap here)
Suddenly, Kakashi popped up next to Sakura, making her fall into the backwards over the bridge, falling into the raging rive be-
"Oh man," Sasuke peeked over the side of the bridge, to see that it WASN'T a raging river, and that Sakura had indeed not fallen into it.
Kakashi was there though.
"So much is going wrong with this day..." he whispered to himself.
Sakura immediately yelled out in exasperation at their teacher. "YOU'RE LATE!"
Chibi Naruto mimicked her, hand movements, scary face and all.
Kakashi shrugged, looking at the invisible watch on his hand. He noticed it needed new batteries. "Not that late." He shrugged.
And then he noticed Chibi Naruto.
He RECOGNIZED chibi Naruto.
In turn, Chibi Naruto recognized him.
And cowered in fear.

Wai! I still love my creation so much! Hugs Chibi Naruto
