Germany, Military Headquarters
"Assume position!" Naruto yells. The blonde boy is currently standing shirtless, despite the fact that it's snowing and the temperature is below zero. Even when a harsh wind blows past him he doesn't make even a single shiver. Behind the experienced shinobi were around twenty young adults standing at attention.
"Attack! Now!" Naruto and his trainees perform two straight punches and a high kick in perfect synchronization.
They keep repeating the routine even when Chifuyu arrives and watches the trainees and her brother train. Unlike Naruto, she is wearing a black suit with a black winter coat over it.
When about an hour passed, Naruto stops the exercises and looks at his squad. "Alright, that's enough for today! Everyone, take a 25 minutes break to eat breakfast and then meet me near the woods!"
"Yes, sir!" The trainees yell as one before they leave while chatting excitedly about today's training session.
A small smile appears on Naruto's face as he walks up to Chifuyu. "Hey sis, so, you done with torturing the future generation of German IS pilots?" He says and receives a harsh glare from his adopted older sister in return, effectively shutting him up. "Alright, alright, I'm just joking! Seriously, can't you take a joke?"
...
...
...
"Apparently not... anyway, how was Laura today?" The boy asks as the two walk towards the headquarters.
Chifuyu didn't show any type of emotion as she spoke. "Manageable, but her gun drawing speed and accuracy need some improvement. She also relies heavily on the IS and neglects her physical and mental training a lot, so I'm adding her to your "Black Hare" training corps." She explains. After entering the base, it didn't take them long to get their room.
Chifuyu quickly goes to the bathroom to take a shower, training the young IS cadets can be quite a tiresome work… for the cadets anyway.
Naruto deadpans as his eyebrow twitches. "Sure, drop anybody at my squad whenever you want." He replies sarcastically, not knowing that his sister smiles at their casual banter. She and Naruto had already spent the first half of the year in Germany, living together in the same room and working as instructors. So it's no surprise that it became natural for them to talk like this.
Once Chifuyu enters the shower, she frowns when she thinks of the annoyances she has to deal with almost on daily bases. The biggest of them being the girls of this base, who can barely restrain themselves from fawning after her brother, and it definitely doesn't help her situation whenever Naruto becomes shirtless during some of his training sessions, letting all of the females get a lot of visual material for their every night sleep.
He is still fourteen years old for God's sake! It doesn't matter if he looks like an eighteen year old! Stupid, never ending growth spurt!
Most of the women here are at least four or five years older than him, and that's the youngest of them... well, except for Laura, but the German girl is stalking her so she doesn't count. The oldest of the women here are ten to twelve years older than him, and they are by far the worst! Chifuyu has lost count of how often she has caught them trying to invite Naruto into their room!
Thank god her brother is dense enough to not realize what's going on around him with the females… or it might be that he is simply too much of a gentleman to not go through with it… or he is simply plain stupid.
If you think it is mean for her to call him that... it isn't. Naruto himself knows that he can be an idiot sometimes, but at least he has the guts to admit it, something most people never do.
Chifuyu shampoos her hair and thinks on how she didn't expect Naruto to actually take his job as an instructor seriously. Besides the basics, he is also teaching the students some odd styles of fighting that she herself has never seen, even during the world wide martial arts tournaments.
Some of styles resembled Tai Chi, but were more focused on pressure points.
There were also some styles that were focused purely on countering against incoming attacks.
And just this morning he was teaching them a style that focused primarily on physical strength. She remembers how much earlier in the morning, while everyone was still sleeping, Naruto was practicing that style against a tree. To her, it looked more like Naruto was punching a simple plank as every attack either left a dent in the trunk or would break off a piece of it.
Chifuyu knew that her brother liked to train a lot, but never to this extent.
After finishing with her shower, she dries herself off and afterwards gets dressed. She returns to the main room and notices that her brother is missing. "*Sigh* I bet he went to his squad."

HEADQUARTERS, MAIN BUILDING

At same time that Chifuyu finishes with her morning shower, Naruto decides to head towards the cafeteria room to get his daily meal. While going there, he notices how some of the female soldiers that he passes by solute him and then quickly scurry away with small blushes on their faces.
He really wants to know why some of the women act weird around, but decides to put it off for later when the smell of cooked meal made him lose interest in the issue.
When he enters the cafeteria, multiple soldiers greet him by saluting. "Instructor Orimura, it's good to see you again sir!" A young adult, five years older than him, smiles at his superior.
Naruto gives him a small smile and returns the solute. "Nice to see you as well, trainee. Hope you guys rested enough to survive today's training session." The former shinobi says, causing the gathered trainees to smile wide at the upcoming challenge. "Hmm? Where's Clarissa?"
A blonde, twenty year old woman huffs. "She is back at the training room redoing yesterday's session. I swear, that girl needs to loosen up."
Naruto chuckles lightly as he raises his hands. "Now, now, I'm sure that training for her is a form of relaxation. Anyway, I need to talk to her, so I will see all you all outside in 10 minutes. Finish eating your meals and kick yourselves into a higher gear for the training."
The trainees salute him as one. "Sir, yes sir!"
The boy sweat drops as he feels like he is repeating himself for the millionth time now. "I'm not your superior!"
"Nein!" A female voice comes from behind Naruto. "Despite being younger than us, you, along with instructor Chifuyu, are much stronger and skilled than anyone in this base. That is good enough of a reason for us to consider you our superior."
Naruto smiles as he turns around to see Clarissa saluting him with a smile of her own. She has blue hair cut into an angled bob, blue eyes and a slender body. She wears a grey beret and grey camouflage soldier clothing. "I heard that you needed something from me, sir."
"At ease, I just wanted to let you know that the training session will start soon." The blonde informs Clarissa.
The two then proceed to leave the cafeteria, but just as they exit the room, they are greeted by the sight of Chifuyu and a girl young, fourteen year old girl. The girl has long silver hair, one red right eye since the other is covered by a black eye patch that conceals its color. Her clothing consists of a standard soldier uniform, with grey baggy pants and high boots.
After staring at them for a few moments, it finally dawns to Naruto. "Oh right... so, this is the trainee that will be joining us, Laura, correct?"
Chifuyu nods as she motions the girl to Naruto. "Laura, I expect total respect towards my brother. He may not be a pilot of an IS, but he is just as strong as me. Understood?"
"While I'm flattered that you think so highly of me, I myself think it's best for Laura herself to decide if I'm worthy of such respect. Okay, miss Laura!" Naruto grins a little. "Follow me and we'll start your training immediately with the others!"
The girl nods silently at Naruto, and Clarissa, knowing that the young woman is a rank above her. The three then head towards the woods were it was outside the headquarters, where Naruto's squad is waiting.
During the walk, the silver haired girl glares at Naruto back. 'Instructor Chifuyu thinks he is as strong as her?! This man has no real anomalies that Instructor has! He seems weak and brittle!'
Before she could think of anything else, they reach the squad of trainees who were chatting loudly among themselves. "Okay everyone, I'm here. So please-"
Laura watches as the blonde hand to hand instructor is having trouble getting his squad's attention. 'He can't make his squad respect him? Instructor Chifuyu scared everyone into listening to her. I can clearly see that he is too kind to do that.'
The said instructor sighs as he looks at the two girls behind him. "Mind stepping back a little? I need room for what I'm about to do."
Both Laura and Clarissa do as ordered while Naruto loses his smile and does something that the scariest person he ever knew, Tsunade, would do. Taking in a deep breath, he punches a metal pole that was near him, causing it to bend at 90 degrees angle with a loud metallic screeching sound.
The combat trainees quickly became silent and stood in single line in front of their pissed off instructor.
"Now that I have your attention, I would like to inform you all that as of today a new trainee will be joining our training sessions from now on! So let's teach her the rules of my squad! RULE NUMBER ONE?!"
The squad stood still with their arm crossed behind their backs as they answer loudly. "NEVER FIGHT WITHOUT A REASON!"
"TWO?!"
"NEVER BACK DOWN FROM A FIGHT!"
"THREE?!"
"NEVER LEAVE A COMRADE BEHIND!"
"FOUR?!"
"ALWAYS BE AS GUTSY AS POSSIBLE!"
Naruto nods and looks at Laura's astonished face. "Impressive, right? My squad is like a family. Everyone here has strong bonds and they place trust in one another completely. Now, get in place you two."
Clarissa nods as she and Laura quickly walk to their respective spots.
Naruto grins a bit evilly, feeling that today's weather is colder than usual. "Alright everyone... today we're doing the "Shake" training!"
Laura watches as the class groans… while some even begin to cry. "We're dead!"
"Dammit! Just when I finally forget about that evil training method." Mumbles a female trainee at Laura's right.
"Say goodbye to food for today, and hello to washroom for a week." A male cadet whines on Laura's left.
The silver haired girl herself starts to sweat from fear, really not looking forward to find out what her new Instructor is planning to do.
Naruto walks up to five trees that stood in a row and paints green, orange, red, blue, and white targets on them. "Alright maggots! You know the rules; I shout out the color of the target and throw a few tennis balls at you with different colors. You have to quickly spot the one you need and quickly kick it or punch it back at the target with the color I shouted out while dodging the rest of the balls.
Fifteen successful hits in a row gets you a hundred free credits at the military store, twenty five hits gets you free lunches for the next half year, thirty-five gets you a delicious meal made by me, forty-five will allow you to choose the next sessions training method, and finally, fifty successful hits gets you a free wish!"
While most of the trainees groan again, but one of them pipes up after hearing all of the rewards.
"Question!" A girl with bright yellow eyes and a red hair speaks up.
"Yes, Nena?" Naruto asks as he takes out his balls... his tennis balls you pervs!
The girl's smiles cutely at him. "By free wish you mean that you would HAVE to do what we tell you, right? Like for example... ask you for a kiss?!"
Naruto chuckles, thinking that female trainee wants a kiss on the cheek. "Correct! You can even ask me to sleep with you." He says humorously, clearly meaning it as a joke. But the females clearly understood it in a literal sense as they squealed in joy while the males glared (playfully) at him. "Okay... Graham Aker, you're first! Step in front of the targets."
"Alright!" The said man is a handsome trainee with blonde hair and with a really bad burn scar on his face. "Let it rip!"
"Blue!" Naruto shouts out before throwing few balls at Graham who immediately kicks the right one.
At first it looks the ball is about to hit the correct target, but it suddenly curves and hits the green target. Naruto throws more and smirks. "Red!"
Graham eyes widen as he kicks one of the ball into the red colored tree... only to find out the ball is green. "Dammit!"
Naruto continues to throw the balls at him which some he manages to hit right, some he doesn't. This continues for a few minutes until Naruto finally stops. "Well, you managed to hit the right ball at the right target nine times, you did better than the last time… but rules are rules, and if you can't get at least fifteen hits, you have to drink my special homemade shake."
Graham's face went pale white as the snow around him. He nods while shaking from fear "Understood..."
"Here you go! An extra veggie fruity milkshake with onions, carrots, pickles, potatoes, bananas, nuts, apples, and a special ingredient that is promised to clean out your bowels instantly." Naruto says with a dark, sadistic look on his face. The drink is deep moss-y green in color and... Bubbles are popping at the surface of it, as if chemical reactions are constantly happening in it.
Laura looks behind herself to see the all of the trainees hug each other in fear and comfort. "Oh no, it's that monstrous shake! The most god damn evil thing in the world! WHY DID NARUTO MAKE SUCH A THING?"
Even Clarissa seems to tremble a little. "E-Even so... we c-can't lose to it."
"Here... goes..." Graham opens his mouth and chugs the whole thing down. Everyone watches in silence as the male trainee stands still for a few moments, before his face turns blue and his stomach starts making odd noises. "BATHROOM!" He yells and quickly rushes off.
Naruto shakes his head in humor before fixing his gaze on the other trainees. "Well, he will be gone for while... who's next?!
Everyone points at one another; ready to sell out others as long it meant prolonging the inevitable.

Naruto looks at the three girls remaining on the field. "Okay, so only Laura, Nena, and Clarissa are left?... Alright, Nena, you're next!"
The red head girl nods with determination.
Several minutes later, Naruto, Laura and Clarissa were surprised that Nena actually managed to hit the balls at the right targets fourty-nine times. As Naruto throws the last ball, something unexpected happens.
"ACHOO!" Nena sneezes and misses the last target. "NOOOOO! MY KISSSSSSS!"
She falls to her knees and cries waterfall tears. Naruto walks up to her and pets her on the back. "Hey, don't cry. At least you have more successful hits than anyone else, hell, many of them couldn't even get past eight. You also get to choose the training method for our next session, so why don't you go back and take a rest." The girl, still sobbing, nods and walks back to the headquarters.
"Clarissa, your next!" Naruto yells.
The blue haired woman sighs and hopes that she will get at least gets enough hits to evade the evil shake. "...Go..."
For five full minutes the woman dodges the wrong colored balls and kicks the one she thinks are right at the targets that she also believes are right. Suddenly, Naruto stops. "What's wrong?" Clarissa asks, and is startled when Naruto begins clapping.
"Congratulations! You managed to get fifty successful hits in a row! You did an amazing job!" Naruto announces, causing her to blush a little from the praise. "Hey, Laura, we'll do yours training tomorrow! I hope you like extra onions and carrots too!"
Laura nods as she concludes that this man is definitely not a sane human. She quickly leaves for her IS training... and hopes to somehow forget this crazy event.
Naruto dismisses Clarissa as the training session is now over, with most of the trainees being occupied with... well, bowel issues. Hehehe, oh he wishes he could go back home to Konoha, just so he could make Konohamaru drink the shake.
He shook his head in amusement and starts walking back to his room.
When he finally reaches it, he quickly walks in. "Hey, Chifuyu! I am going to take a nap, so could you get me something from the cafeteria..." Naruto trails off when he sees Clarissa walk out of the bathroom… wearing only a towel.
The two stare at each for what seems like an eternity… until.…..

"KYAAAAAAA!"

AN HOUR LATER

Naruto is sitting in a lotus position while sporting a black eye. Clarissa herself is now fully clothed, wearing black frilly pajamas, which oddly enough suited her well.
Despite the annoying sharp pain his eye is currently giving him... his face is set into a complete blank state that even Chifuyu would be proud of.
Not that she would ever say it out loud.
Naruto expertly sneaks peeks at Clarissa's room. There are anime posters hanging on the walls with various DVD's, manga and even some character figurines neatly placed on big shelves. "So, you're a fan of anime huh?" he says causally, trying to ease the tension.
The best trainee of his squad nods with a bright blush on her cheeks. "Y-yes..."
'Crap, didn't mean to make her self-conscious about her hobby.' Naruto thinks and decides to bring out some of his bright persona from when he was a genin back at Konoha. "So, how did you get interested in anime? I personally got hooked in when me and my little brother, Ichika, watched an entire marathon of Evangelion... though the end of the series was a bit messed up in my opinion."
Clarissa huddles her legs close to her chest and hugs them. "I... I never really had done anything much in my life besides military training. The orphanage that I grew up at was under the military rule. We were all raised to become soldiers, by our choice of course. I always strived to be the best... which meant leaving out things like relationships and fun activities. But one day, a few years ago, I was returning from one of my late night jogs and as I passed the cafeteria… I found a manga book placed on one of the tables."
Clarissa smiles as her expression turns gentle. "I took the book with me and planned to put in the lost and found box the next morning. When I got to my room I went straight to the bed, but I couldn't sleep as my body still felt too active from the jog, so I decide to read the manga to pass some time until I finally fall asleep. But just after reading a few pages… I began to love it! I loved the plot, the romance, the comedy and overall everything about it. When I finally finished reading it, morning had come without me even realizing it."
Clarissa expression then becomes meek again. "I began to secretly use my credits at the military mall to buy more manga, various anime and figurines. I even bought some of those portable games of my favorite animes."
Naruto nods in understanding. He knows how she fills since he was like that when he first discovered ramen. He loved it not only because it was delicious, but also because Ayame and her old man always made sure to prepare him a bowl of it with great care...… it made things a bit more bearable during his harsh childhood at Konoha. He no longer had to worry about checking his food if it was poisoned, or if something was added in it that didn't belong.
Clarissa sighs heavily, at this very moment she felt very fragile, in contrast to her strong soldier attitude. "Reading manga and watching anime made stressful days, or sad days become bearable. It would always make me smile and laugh… and it still does." The young adult buries her head into her knees; feeling like her entire life is about to crash down.
After a few silent minutes pass, she hears Naruto move from his spot. She looks up to see him looking at her manga collection, "Huh, I thought I read all of Code Geass volumes? Who the hell is Rai? Also, how come Lancelot is in his Albion mode?"
"What in the world are you doing?" Clarissa says as Naruto gives her one of his rare, big smiles.
"Well, I'm apparently reading Code Geass manga with this weird white haired protagonist. He has Kallen and C.C. in love with him... oops make that Cornelia as well." Naruto says smiling as he continues to read.
"That's because Rai is the main character from Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion - Lost Colors the game. The manga author decided to make Rai's version of the story with him using his Geass powers instead of Lelouch." Clarissa says, making Naruto 'ooh' in response.
Naruto chuckles as he closes the book. "Mind if I borrow the first volume... and the second... along with the third?" He asks happily. He rather likes the series because how political actions in it often resemble chessboard moves. Lelouch was also pretty awesome too.
Clarissa is shocked that he is... so accepting of her hobby. "Why aren't you laughing at me, or disappointed that I'm wasting my time on this?"
"Hmm...? Why should I?" Naruto asks casually. "Just because you want to become a perfect soldier, doesn't mean you have to give up on fun stuff. Look at you, you're the best trainee in my squad and you like this stuff. Want another example? Take me for instance. I like training as much as the next soldier, but I also goof off and play some games at the local arcades back at Japan."
Naruto grins widely, knowing that the next words will definitely make her happy. "And remember, you found your first manga book at the cafeteria. That means that someone else likes this stuff as well, just like me and you! Now, if you would excuse me... I need to know how Lelouch reacts to Rai dating his sister... hehehe..." Naruto turns back his gaze at the manga and reads it intently, chuckling from time to time because of the hilarious bits in it.
Clarissa just sits on her bed with wide eyes, without moving single a muscle… until her instructor's words finally sink in.
A beautiful smile appears on her face. 'He's right! If someone had it before me and read it out in the open, it is possible that there is a group of people that like manga and anime as well.' Clarissa thinks happily. She then looks at Naruto and smiles brightly at him. "Hey, Naruto, did you know that Rai is actually a-"

Naruto walks back to his room with a slight skip in his steps, feeling really happy that he was able to help out his new friend. "Hmhmhm..."
After this time reaching the correct room, his room, he opens the door to see... oh boy...
An irradiated Chifuyu sitting on her bed with her legs crossed.
He chuckles inwardly, knowing if he made a wrong sound, he would lose his teeth from his older sister's righteous anger. She can be very brutal when she's angry… and she doesn't hide that fact.
Naruto slowly walks up to his bed and sits down. This has the reaction of Chifuyu standing up, walking up to his bed as well, and laying down on it… with her head on his lap. Her eyes blankly stare at Naruto's own.
"So, cadets giving you migraines again?" Naruto says softly while running his hand through her hair... he wonders how she manages to keep it so clean and soft after a day of hard work. Guess it's one of the mysteries that only women know.
Chifuyu just continues to stare at him for a few seconds before sighing. "Yes. They think that just because they have high customized second gen IS's they can be cocky all they want. Back in my days, I always had to be calm and collected during both combat, and training." The older woman speaks as casually as she can, trying to not let her rage get to her… which seems to be working so far thanks to Naruto gently massaging her scalp.
"I see... well, I think that they are just a bit overexcited. "IS" is an amazing machine that allows them to do many incredible things never thought of before, and they simply get carried away a bit too much." Naruto reasons with his elder sister, who nods in response.
Chifuyu is... the man of the house... cue Naruto and Ichika losing their manliness here... and has to beware of kidnappers, jealous idiots… and the things that piss her of most like stalkers and fanboys. Naruto doesn't want for her to keep all that anger pant up and boiling inside, knowing from personal experience that eventually it would lead to a big meltdown... in his case quite literally.
He often spars with her to allow her to relieve some of her pent up frustrations. A normal person would most likely end up in either a hospital, or a morgue from how intense their sparring tendd to get. But Naruto isn't a normal person.
Thanks to his friends from Elemental Nation's Taijutsu styles, he is able to keep up with her and even survive her infinitely strong punches and kicks. But sparring is mostly meant for her to release the buildup tension.
Besides stress, there are days that leave her with both sour and tired moods. At those times instead of physical relief, Naruto provides emotional relief by allowing her to talk out her troubles, with him giving her advice when needed while gently massaging her head, just like right now.
For those of you who are confused, it's simple politics really… he helps her with her stress and moods… and she in return doesn't bash his teeth in.
"Just six more months and we'll be going home. Hopefully Ichika didn't knock up that friend of-Ow!" Naruto eeps in pain when Chifuyu pinches his thigh. "Okay, okay! Glad to see you're feeling better."
"Arigatou." Chifuyu says before getting up.
Naruto watches his older sister walk to her bed and lay down on it. A few moments later he can hear her lightly snoring. "Anytime..."

TIMESKIP, SIX MONTHS LATER

Naruto is standing outside his room that he and his sister had been using for a full year. "Sure am going to miss this place." He comments.
"And this place is going to miss you, Naruto." The blond boy turns to see Clarissa saluting him while wearing her new "Schwarzer Hase" uniform. "I... I'm really going to miss you." She says sadly, and is hugged softly by her friend.
"Don't worry, I gave you my contact information, and this isn't the end you know. Listen… don't say goodbye... because if we don't say goodbye, we'll definitely going to meet again. Clarissa... remember to never be afraid of who you are… and always believe in yourself and the people you trust. They will give you the strength to move forward during hard times."
The girl looks down at ground with rosy cheeks, her lips move as if to say something important, but after few failed attempts she instead smiles sweetly. "Thank you. I think you should go now and meet up with your sister at the airport. She might not like it if you take too long."
With that said, Naruto hugs her for one last time and then leaves. Clarissa watches his retreating back with both a smile and determination in her eyes.

A WEEK LATER
XXXXXXXXXX
Naruto is walking out of the orphanage after visiting them to see how they are doing… and he is glad that everything is ok.
The children were happy to get new, even better toys and beds. But they still prefer if Naruto was with them instead. To them, the happiness he brings into their lives by just being around is more valuable than any amounts of money.
After reaching the market district, the teen starts looking at the shops around him, hoping to find some fast food joint, or even a restaurant since its lunchtime and he is feeling quite hungry.
The food price didn't matter. His salary for being an instructor for a year has just been transferred into his bank account, which was seventy thousand euros. And once it was converted into yen… well… needless to say he has enough money to last him for quite a while.
Naruto walks down the street and continues his search for a place to eat until suddenly stopping.
Not too far in front of him two people can be seen arguing with one another. One of them is a short, fat man dressed in a fancy suite. The other person is an orange haired woman dressed in plain clothes which consisted of a plain blue jacket, white button up shirt, simple blue jeans and brown shoes. "Look, I have money. So just let me in." The woman says tensely.
The short fat man laughs loudly, as if he just heard a funny joke. "So what if you do? This is a five start restaurant that only lets the finest high class diners to enter. Even VIP's have a hard time getting a reservation here!"
"Well, now it's obvious why there aren't any other restaurants in this district. Which leads me back to the money I have..." The woman says polity, but Naruto can clearly see that she is barely restraining herself from either choking the man, or throwing him off the cliff... maybe a bit of both, if it was physically possible.
The fat man smirks at her. "If I allowed riff rafts like you to enter my luxurious restaurant, its name would be sullied... but… perhaps if you are willing to pay in more, pleasurable ways, I might get a doggie bag for you." The man says while gazing lecherously at her body.
The woman finally hits her boiling point and reaches down her purse to pull out a knife to slit the fat bastard's throat... but an certain someone decides intervene.
"Eliza! Honey, you shouldn't do such things like wandering off! What if you got yourself involved in some dangerous situation?" Naruto acts like a doting boyfriend while holding the woman's wrist that held the knife. His other hand held the woman by her waist incase she tried to break away.
To a simple civilian's eyes it might appear like an intimate act, but the woman knew he was keeping her from attacking the man.
Not wanting to make a scene, she decided to roll with it. "Oh, sorry Jack. I was trying to find us a nice dinner, but this man..."
Naruto looks at the short fool with a serious face. "What about him?"
The fat man gets intimidated by the tall giant's sudden appearance and quickly retreats back into his restaurant while shaking like a leaf.
Once the restaurant's door closes, the woman elbows Naruto into the stomach… only to hiss out in pain. "Oww! What the hell is your body made off?! Stone?!"
The woman backs away from the young man... or is it a teen? He is definitely tall, but some of the features suggest that he might still be in his teen years.
She takes in a few calming breaths before speaking again. "Look, as much as I like seeing little pricks like him piss themselves from fear, what the hell where you-" She is cut off from finishing her rant when Naruto speaks up.
"Listen, I know how you feel! But you must realize that if you had succeeded in what you were about to do, he would look innocent in the eyes of the public, while you would be accused as a murderer." Naruto tries to reason with the woman.
'Great, another goodie-goodie two shoes who thinks killing is wrong. God, these kinds of people make me sick!' The woman spins on her heels and begins to walk away from the teen.
"Why give him the satisfaction of having an eternal blissful sleep, when we can instead give him eternal punishment and humiliation?" Naruto says while smirking at her.
The woman suddenly stops and turns around, smirking darkly at the teen herself. "Hmmm… that sounds interesting. I think I might have misgauged you kid. The names Autumn… and you have my upmost attention."
"Naruto Orimura. So, how badly you want this man punished?" the blonde asks.
The woman's dark grin turns into a sadistic smile. "Well, like you said before... eternally."
"Heh, easy as breathing..."
Azureking: Ha got you with cliffhanger! Hope that Autumn makes stay around for the next chapter! AS you can see Naruto and Chifuyu's relationship is strictly business no love besides the kindness of Naruto sibling love…maybe later something more but like I said…politics! XD
Naruto will have one or two more chapters with Autumn and two more certain someone before the start of canon. Please wait and review for the next chapter folks.
