A/N - Hello everyone, I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend! I've been in the mood to write this story now for a bit and I'll admit to having some fun with this chapter. Hopefully, you're all having fun reading this as well.

Anyways, I had a review ask if I could post links to the stories I'm showcasing. I thought I made it clear in the beginning, but every story I'm 'reading' is written by me. They're just ideas that are floating around in my head or little skits I think others will get a laugh out of. If people like certain stories, I may write an actual story for it. Who knows~

When reading like this, it means you're not in a scene.

When reading like this, it means you're in a scene.

Thoughts are inverted!

I do not own Naruto.

I do own my OCs though!

Enjoy the story!


Naruto leaned back on the couch and stared up at the ceiling. He has been put in a unique situation. Being allowed to see different versions of his own life is interesting, to say the least. Little differences that somehow lead to large changes. He had heard someone talk about something like this before. The Butterfly Change? No, that didn't sound quite right, but it's close. Something as small as crushing a butterfly could cause the end of the world. That's what watching these other lives were like.

Kami saw the blond teen in deep thought and swiveled toward him. She crossed her legs and rested your elbows on her knees with her hands resting under her jaw. "Whatcha thinking about?" she asked curiously.

Sapphire-blue eyes shifted toward the loli and the back up to the ceiling. "Thinking about all my others, ya know?" he responded after a few moments. He shifted slightly and felt a tug in his stomach. I could really use some ramen right now… he thought hungrily. As if heard by the delectable salty gods themselves, the empty ramen bowl on the table filled with fresh ramen. The smell filtered through his nose, and stars appeared in his eyes. Thank you, ramen gods, He thanked the divine and quickly started to eat.

While noodles were slurped down, Kami glared at the ramen. Why does he keep asking these false ones for ramen? How are they even able to respond? This doesn't make sense and why am I feeling jealous? She questioned herself before a challenging smile replaced her glare. She snapped her fingers and an extra-large bowl of steaming miso pork ramen – extra pork – appeared on the table. "Naruto, I made this bowl especially for you," she said with a heavenly tone.

Naruto stopped slurping at his ramen and gazed longingly at the much larger bowl of ramen. His eyes slowly shifted back to his current bowl and he quickly inhaled it not seeing the shadow of a frown on Kami's face. When the bowl emptied, he tentatively reached over to the massive bowls as if it was a holy relic. He noticed two finely crafted black chopsticks with his name in burnt orange written elegantly on them. He took a small mouthful of the ramen and felt the pork melt in his mouth. Ramen truly made by the divine. This finally proved it, Kami was the real deal. "Thank you, Kami! This is the most delicious ramen I've ever had!" he chirped, flashing her one of his brilliant warm smiles; his sapphire-blue eyes sparkling with joy.

Victory flashed in her eyes as the blond teen went back to savoring her ramen. Take that, false ones! She mentally yelled out as she felt the empty bowl glare at her. That's right, he's mine! She declared possessively before turning her eyes to the blond teen. "You're welcome, Naruto," she replied beautifully with a slight hint of arrogance.

A few minutes passed and Naruto finished the divine ramen. He leaned back with an exaggerated sigh as he rubbed his stomach. "That was amazing…" he said out loud, smiling in contentment.

"Glad you enjoyed and if you want more, please make sure to ask me," she stated clearly getting an eager nod in return. Kami: one, False: zero, she thought happily, a cartoon version of herself clapping and cheering excitedly. She shook her head slightly, before picking up the remote and shifting through some versions until she settled on one. "Ready?" she asked, her finger hovering over the play button.

"Yup!" he answered, his mind now promptly settled from his earlier thinking.

Naruto jumped building to building while avoiding the two random shinobi on his tail. He laughed exuberantly with a large grin plastered on his face. He quickly pulled out a cloth that would camouflage him with the background and hid behind it. Man, I sure hope none of these shinobi can see through a basic stealth trick like this, he thought from behind the cloth. After all, it would be embarrassing.

"Oh, I remember this! This is right after I pulled one of my greatest pranks!" Naruto laughed, clapping his hands as if rooting his other on.

The two shinobi landed right in front of the hidden kid. "Where did that brat go?" the first chūnin said to his teammate.

"I don't know, but maybe he's behind that suspicious cloth billowing in the wind," the second chūnin replied causing the blond academy student to start sweating lightly.

The first chūnin stared at his comrade blankly before turning to the billowing cloth then quickly back at his teammate. "What are you, an idiot? Of course, he's not behind that incredibly suspicious cloth," he retorted, smacking the other on the back of the head for even suggesting something so stupid. "Now, let's choose a random direction and hope we stumble upon him," he said jumping in a random direction mumbling about stupid teammates.

Kami palmed her face at the stupidity. "It's surprising that your village is considered to be the strongest when you have such incompetent shinobi," she said to her fellow blond.

"The elite in our village makes up for the bad," he replied with a simple wave of the hand.

She opened her mouth to retort but decided against and returned to the screen.

"Well, that doesn't seem like a dumb idea at all!" he shouted out after his friend, following quickly behind.

Kami sighed.

Naruto blinked and sighed in relief before dropping the cloth and giving a charming thumbs up to no one in particular. "Aha, I knew my unnatural luck would save me. I'm sure that nothing could go wrong now.

"Famous last words," Naruto and Kami said at the same time.

I mean, it's not like a school teacher is going to sneak up behind me when he should be teaching the other students," Naruto stated out loud, nodding his head wisely as it sounded quite logical. Then he felt someone tap his shoulder. He turned around lazily to see a schoolteacher who should be teaching instead of chasing him.

"Huh, you know, I never thought about it that way," Naruto said to himself, rubbing the bottom of his chin.

"I found you, Naruto! You should be in class learning to be a shinobi, not pranking the village!" the schoolteacher known as Iruka reprimanded heatedly.

"…shouldn't you be in class teaching your students?" Naruto responded with a deadpan expression.

"Probably."

"Fair enough," he consented before asking a question that's been bothering him for a while, "So, how do you keep finding me?"

"Huh? Oh, that's easy. Plot," he answered as if that answered everything, which in some strange cosmic way, it did. Deciding that their conversation was over, he grabbed onto the boy's ear. He then started dragging him back to the academy for a special lesson.

Naruto chuckled lightly at the scene. "Is it just me or does everything in this world feel really comedically pointed out?" he asked the loli goddess.

"Yeah, it seems the entire world is mocking itself," she responded between her own giggle.

Later…

Naruto was now tied up comically in front of the whole class. "Okay class, because Naruto decided to prank the village instead of trying to better himself as a sane person would after failing twice, you're all going to suffer! Yeah, that's right, time for a pop quiz," he said eliciting groans and glares directed at the blond. "I want each of you to come up here and perform the henge jutsu, got it?" he asked, giving them all a look that dared them to defy him.

"Wow, Iruka-sensei is a tad harsher in this world," Naruto whistled.

"Indeed, but he does have a point. You probably should have tried to pay closer attention in class instead of skipping and pranking the village. It definitely wasn't earning you any brownie points," Kami said, holding up a finger.

Naruto shrugged. "It didn't really matter. If I had any questions, they wouldn't be answered, or I'd get laughed at for not knowing. I once tried asking Iruka-sensei for some help, but he couldn't show special treatment and just told me to try harder," he commented with a sigh.

Kami gave a minuscule frown and turned back to the screen.

One by one, each of Naruto's classmates went up to perform the henge while giving equally annoyed or irritated glares at him. Soon enough, it was finally his turn after getting out of his bindings. He gave a mischievous look that if anyone would have seen would have been nervous.

Naruto started to snicker since he knew what was happening. Kami knew what was coming as well and starting giggling through her hand in anticipation. That look promised a prank.

"Pedophile Finder Jutsu!" he shouted, turning into a young buxom blond girl. She was nude with only faint smoke covering her most private bits. Though, it left very little to the imagination.

Naruto and Kami both broke out into laughter. "That's the greatest name for a jutsu ever!" Naruto chortled, trying to breathe through his laughter. Maybe he would start calling his jutsu that too.

Blood rushed out of Iruka's nose and launched him backward onto the floor. Every student who heard the name of the technique eyed their sensei warily while taking a careful step back.

"Looks like your jutsu has exposed someone," she said in a sing-song voice getting a soft laugh in return.

Iruka quickly jumped back onto his feet, his eye twitching aggressively. Though, his face was dusted red from either anger or blush as he glared at the still nude child. "Naruto!" he shouted, his head expanding from a possible secret Umino bloodline.

"Hm... He's the only one that I know could have his head expand when angered. So, it's possible," Naruto commented getting a nod from Kami.

"Knock off your extremely effective jutsu that exposes us perverts for who we are and do what I told you!" he ordered, a vein throbbing on his forehead and hopefully, only his forehead.

"Okay, first off, I couldn't have said it better myself. The jutsu works exactly as intended!" Naruto said proudly before turning a delicate shade of green. "Secondly, gross, I did not need to know that last part," he commented with a disgusted expression. He hoped it was only on his forehead. Kami giggling perversely didn't help his case.

After laughing a bit at his successful jutsu he decided to give in to his sensei's demands. He shrugged his shoulders and did a normal henge jutsu of the Third Hokage which failed much to his classmate's amusement. "How was that Iruka-sensei?" he asked, his face perfectly innocent which made the students all laugh. Oh, how he relished their attention.

Naruto remembered why he became the class clown. It was one of the easiest ways to be acknowledged. To him, it didn't matter if they were laughing at him and not with him. Now, he realizes it wasn't the attention he really wanted.

Iruka sighed, "You failed, but I expected you too. I just wanted the class to mock you so you would hopefully try harder to pass. Now, go sit down next to Sakura who hates you," he said, directing the blond at the pink-haired girl who definitely hated the blond.

"Ugh, why do you have to remind me? Also, what the hell Iruka-sensei?!" Naruto pouted.

"Honestly, I always thought you could do better then Sakura," Kami informed him.

"Really?"

"Of course, you're a special person. You deserved someone equally special in my opinion," she said honestly getting a warm smile in return.

"Yay, now I can ask Sakura-chan for a date… again!" he cheered while running over to sit down next to his crush. "Hey, Sakura-chan, want to go out on a date?" he asked hopefully and watch as she slowly turned toward him.

"No," she answered angrily and rightfully punched him in the back of the head as customs demanded. As his face went through his desk, he sighed wistfully. He loved violent women which he probably inherited – unknowingly – got from his father.

"That explains a lot," Naruto said blankly as he stared at his other. His face was literally smashed through the desk. How did no one ever question her on her obscene strength?

Later…

Naruto gripped onto the mountain as he scrubbed tirelessly at the monument he defaced earlier. Iruka stared at his student before deciding to cheer him up with a lecture. It just seemed like the right thing to do. "Why do you do this Naruto? No one will ever accept you," he started to say before a bug flew into his throat making him cough.

Naruto just stared up at his sensei with disbelief and hurt in his eyes.

"What a bad time to pause," Kami laughed awkwardly.

Iruka, clearing his throat looked at his student. "Sorry, bug caught in my throat," he apologized getting an 'ah' from the blond student. "Now, where was I? Oh, yeah, no one will ever accept you if you continue to anger every single person in the village with your demeaning pranks. Like, honestly, it's totally doing the opposite of what you want," he said, shaking his head at the kid.

Kami turned toward her fellow blond. "You know, he's telling the truth even if he did just sound like a stuck-up teenage girl," she commented.

"Yeah, yeah, I know that now," he said depressingly.

Naruto continued to scrub as he spoke, "Eh, I decided a long time ago that even negative attention is better than nothing," he answered with a shrug before glaring up at his teacher. "I mean, it's not like I have any parents to go home to for some positive reinforcement, ya know?" he replied with a bitter tone.

"Playing the dead parent card on another person who lost his parents isn't very effective," Kami stated.

"Oh, excuse me, I was a child!"

"Was?" she stated with a humorous smirk.

He simply stuck out his tongue and blew her a raspberry making her laugh to herself.

Iruka frowned before an amazing idea sprung into his brain. He would make it up to the orphan universally hated by just about everything by buying him food. "Look, Naruto, how about I buy you a bowl of ramen after you finish cleaning up this mess," he offered with a smile.

"Are you trying to cheer me up with food after humiliating me in class today and reminding me of what I don't have?" he asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I do believe he is," the loli-goddess commented.

"…is it working?"

"From how I've seen this world go so far? Probably," Naruto commented alongside Kami.

"Yeah," he answered nonchalantly, as he started scrubbing the mountain with renewed vigor.

Phew, if he would have bargained for more, I probably would have given him special training, he thought with a breath of relief at not having extra work.

"Wait, what!?" Naruto shouted in disbelief.

The goddess laughed, "I guess you should work on your bargaining skills," she said playfully nudging him in the side.

Later…

Naruto finished his first bowl of ramen and looked at Iruka hopefully, "Can I have another?" he asked.

Iruka looked at his student and smiled. "No, let this be a lesson, always remember to bargain," he said sagely while enjoying his own bowl of ramen. "Ah, there's nothing quite like taking a student out for a late-night dinner and teaching him at the same time. It's good to be a teacher," he said to himself.

"Why did he have to phrase it that way…" Naruto groaned.

"Yeah, that's pretty weird now that I think about it. Especially after your reaction from staring at my naked female body," he stated, getting disturbed looks from the two ramen chefs.

"Well, at least your other notices how strange that is," Kami commented.

"Anyways, can I try on your headband, please?" he asked, setting his limited-edition goggles on the counter.

"Wow, you clearly have your priorities in order," the loli deadpanned.

"Huh, you mean this?" he asked pointing at his headband.

"No, I meant your other headband," he responded with a deadpan expression.

"Oh, well, in that case, no. Is that why you took off your goggles?" he questioned with a sly smirk.

"Possibly."

"You know you can't wear this until you graduate. This headband symbolizes our allegiance to the village. I mean, you probably won't ever get one because I hold you to such high standards. You would probably be upset to know I let someone pass last year who couldn't even use chakra," he said, mumbling that last part to himself.

"Hey, I'll pass for sure this time! …wait, what was that last part?"

"Uh, nothing!"

"You know, I probably would have been slightly resentful if I found that out," Naruto admitted.

Kami gave him a knowing look, "Would you have still been resentful if you got stuck with such a 'youthful' sensei?" she asked with a sly smile.

Naruto shuddered at the memory of the youthful apocalypse. "Please don't remind me of that. I've never seen so much youth in one place," he shivered getting a laugh from the loli.

The next morning…

"Good morning class, we'll now be starting the graduation exam. The deciding factor if you can graduate or not will be on the bunshin jutsu," he informed, giving everyone a look that dares them to say otherwise. With every child remaining silent he smirked to himself. Ah, it's good to be king, he thought happily.

Everyone simply shrugged off their sensei, after all, who couldn't perform something as simple and useless as the bunshin jutsu? Meanwhile, Naruto was panicking. Oh, come on! This is super-inconvenient that they just happened to choose the one jutsu I can't perform! If only they would have chosen an actual beneficial jutsu, like the henge! He thought.

Naruto blinked a few times. "Why did they only test us on that jutsu? I can't recall them actually testing us on the henge even after we reviewed it," he said thoughtfully, trying to think back to his exam.

Kami hummed, "Well, maybe Iruka did this to make sure you failed since he thought you weren't ready for the outside world," she suggested.

Soon everyone went up and performed the jutsu and passed easily. Finally, it was Naruto's turn as he walked up in front of Iruka and his assistant Mizuki. "Okay, Naruto, perform the bunshin jutsu and you pass," Iruka said, watching the academy student intently. The other teacher stared at him too, but he didn't matter yet.

"Does it have to be the bunshin jutsu?"

"Yes."

"But, that jutsu isn't even useful! Why not the henge?" he whined.

"Obviously it's because I don't think you're ready to be a shinobi yet and I want to protect you from that life for as long as possible so I'm setting you up to fail," he answered bluntly.

"Told you," Kami said.

"Yeah, yeah…"

"Oh, that makes sense, but I'm not happy about it," the blond responded before preparing to perform the useless jutsu. "Bunshin Jutsu!" he shouted, putting all his faith into this one moment. A poof of smoke and a clone appeared, well, if you could call it that. It looked like a failed pencil sketch. Clearly, my faith is lacking… Naruto thought, a bead of sweat going down his head as he watched his twitching clone.

Iruka stared at the failed clone unimpressed. "Oh no, you failed a technique you've never managed to perform once. What a shocker!" Iruka fake gasped. "You failed, Naruto, better luck next time," he said sadly, internally proud of his masterful acting.

Naruto did something he never thought he would do toward Iruka-sensei. He gave him the middle finger. "He's being an asshole in this world," he said when he saw Kami give him a questioning look.

Mizuki deciding to score some easy favor spoke up, "Iruka-sensei, how about we let him pass? After all, we did let that other kid pass and he couldn't even perform-," whatever the other teacher was going to say was cut off by Iruka when he got punched into a wall and knocked unconscious.

"Holy shit!" Naruto gaped before laughing at the traitor getting knocked out.

"K.O!" Kami said in a deep voice before breaking down into a fit of giggles.

"We don't talk about that," he said, glaring fiercely at his assistant. "Anyways, all your classmates were able to perform this jutsu and you couldn't. I can't in good conscious allow you to pass and enviably die in the field," he stated concisely.

"Can you name one person who actually uses the bunshin jutsu outside of the academy?"

"Duh, there's that one ninja and that other one."

"Can you give me any names?" Naruto deadpanned.

"…no…"

The blond sighed, "Fine, well, I'm going to go watch everyone celebrate with their loving family to help build up my depression before I jump off the monument. Later," he said while walking away and waving over his shoulder.

"Sorry, Naruto, but it's for the best. Wait… what was that last part?" he asked before shaking it off. It probably wasn't anything important.

Naruto and Kami both stared at the screen with a deadpan expression.

A few moments later…

"Hey, mom, I passed! Can you believe it?!" a newly minted child soldier exclaimed happily.

"Wow, my little boy is growing up so fast. It won't be long until you're mentally scarred for life and have blood on your hands. Just like your father," the mother answered dreamily.

"They're in the trees, I'm telling you! They're in the damn tree!" the father said, shaking and glancing at every tree nervously.

"…mom, dad needs his meds again," the child said, shaking his mother out of her daze.

"He always does…" she said, walking off with the man in tow.

Kami start chuckling getting a questioning look for Naruto. "It's nothing, just a joke from a different world," she said waving him off which just confused him more. I love jokes that appear in places they should not be, she thought contently.

"Hey, it's that kids," a different woman said, pointing at the obviously depressed child swinging alone in the shade.

"Yeah, thank goodness he failed again," another woman said standing beside her.

"Can you imagine how much damage he could have caused out there or worse he could have died."

"Yeah… wait, why didn't we pass him again?"

"Simple, it feels good to tear down the kid's dreams instead, plus he's a demon," the woman answered like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

She quickly covered the woman's mouth, "Shh, you know we're not allowed to talk about that," she harshly whispered. When they looked back toward the child, he was already gone. Where? They didn't really care.

"Wow, she's a bitch," the blond girl huffed.

Later…

Naruto sat on top of the Hokage monument while looking over the peaceful village. He was disappointed that he failed to become a shinobi for the third time. Maybe this was a sign that he should find a different path in life. Maybe he could take up painting and become a famous artist? He shook his head at the thought and sighed tiredly. "Maybe I should have pushed myself harder in class instead of skipping class so often…" he mumbled to himself. "Well, time to take a leap of faith," he suddenly said, but as he was about to get up, someone started talking from behind him.

"Hey, kid, I've been looking for you. Before you take that fatal leap of faith, how about you listen to what I have to say first. I promise it'll interest you," a familiar voice said. When he turned toward the visitor, he got a good look at his other teacher, Mizuki. His was sporting a rather impressive black eye.

"Alright, it's not like I got anything better to do," he said with a shrug.

"That's the spirit," he said, clapping him on the shoulder. "I've got a special offer for you," he started when Naruto started backing away immediately. He gave the blond a confused look.

"Sorry, I don't roll that way. Jiji says I'm not supposed to do things like that for strangers. No matter how much I want to graduate," Naruto said seriously, hoping to protect his chastity.

Kami fell off the couch holding her stomach from laughing so hard. "This is great!" she choked out and looked at the blushing and clearly embarrassed Naruto. She couldn't help it and started laughing harder.

"Oh, shut up! He could have phrased it better!" he huffed and after a few moments, she started to calm down.

"D-don't let him touch your," she started snickering again but pushed forward, "Your no-no square!" she choked out and started laughing more.

Naruto groaned into his hands, "Please stop…"

After a few more moments of laughing, they were both sitting on the couch. One with a pleased grin plastered on her face and the other with an annoyed look. "Okay, I'm good," the loli said, still sporting a grin.

A look of understanding passed over Mizuki's face and his cheeks dusted pink. "That's not what I meant! I have a special exam for you," he tried explaining getting an even more warily look from the blond.

"Shut it," Naruto said before she could comment.

"Let me start over, I have a special exam for you to do. All you need to do is recover an item, bring it to a set location and learn a technique," he stated clearly, wanting to get that misunderstanding out of the way.

Naruto, who calmed down after hearing some of the details looking thoughtfully at the teacher. "You've piqued my interest, please tell me more," he asked, tilting his head to the side. He could at least hear the man out.

"Good, good, now all you need to do is break into the Hokage's office and steal the Forbidden Scroll of Sealing and return it to me. Simple enough right?" he asked like he was asking to be handed a book off the middle shelf in a library.

"No… not really…"

"I'm sure you can handle such a mediocre task; you're going to be the next Hokage after all!"

"That is true, alright, I'll do your highly suspicious test! You can count on me!" Naruto cheered, running away to plan his grand larceny. After all, it's not every day a teacher seeks out the worst student to give a special exam to steal a village treasure for an exam. Man, he sure is lucky.

Naruto and Kami both palmed their face.

"Wow… I can't believe that actually worked…" Mizuki said blinking a few times in shock.

Later at night…

"Naruto my boy, what are you doing with the Forbidden Scroll?" the elderly Hokage asked, shocked that an academy student managed to sneak into one of the most well-guarded places in the village. Someone is getting fired for this… he thought irritably.

"Uh… well, you see… Pedophile Finder Jutsu!" he shouted, turning back into his jailbait form. It was extremely effective as the elder ninja was launched off the floor from the fountain of blood pouring from his nose. "You know, I'm not sure how I feel about this. He has always taken a larger interest in me than any other kid…" he said, warily staring at the man with a silly grin on his face. "Eh, I'll think about it later, time for me to graduate!" he said to himself, quickly doing ninja moves to escape the tower.

"Okay, I'm really uncomfortable how this world keeps portraying the people that I care about," Naruto finally said.

"You have to admit though, it is pretty suspicious that this jutsu works on them when they know it's you," Kami argued.

Naruto crossed his arms over his chest. "They're just perverts and their eyes see a young beautiful girl," he retorted.

"That 'young beautiful girl' is you."

"Touché."

A few moments later in the forest…

"Okay, now I just need to learn something from this oversized scroll, how hard can that be?"

One Hour Later…

"Wow, that was stupidly easy to learn such a complex and useful jutsu!" Naruto said in shock. Sure, it had been a little rough in the beginning, but he pushed through it and managed to learn the Shadow Clone Jutsu. He didn't know why he chose a clone technique out of all the jutsu listed, but it just felt like the right thing to do.

"That is impressive no matter how you look at it," Kami said giving him an appraising look.

"Naruto! What have you done!?" an angry voice that Naruto easily recognized as Iruka said from behind him.

The young teen in a moment of brilliance or stupidity turned toward his teacher and pointed at him. "Aha, I've found you Iruka-sensei!" he shouted, hoping to throw his teacher off balance. The first that collided with the top of his head gave him the conclusion that it failed. Also, he may have a concussion…

"I'm leaning more toward stupidity personally," Kami said with a snort.

Naruto sighed, "It sounded like the right thing to say."

"You idiot, I found you!" he shouted back before taking in his appearance. He looked like he had been training for a while and couldn't help but voice his thoughts. "Have you been training?" he asked curiously.

"Yeah and I even learned a secret technique in an hour. I'll admit, this was a strange test, but I will finally be able to graduate!"

"Wait, say what now?

"I said, I'm going to be graduating!"

"No, who gave you this test?"

"Huh, oh, Mizuki-sensei did, why?"

Before Iruka could comment any further, Mizuki appeared on top of a tree branch. "Ah, Naruto, you succeeded! Congratulations now just hand me the scroll and you graduate," Mizuki said, his hand in front of him.

"No, don't, Naruto! He tricked you into stealing the scroll," Iruka said to Naruto. "I wish I could say I'm surprised, but you're pretty gullible," he finished with a small shrug getting a pout from Naruto.

"Hey!" Naruto yelled in offense.

"Hey!" Naruto yelled in offense.

"Yeah, what other me said!"

"Also, I wouldn't really say tricked as I literally told him to steal the scroll," Mizuki pointed out before changing tactics. "Hey, Naruto, do you want to know why the village despises you so much?" he asked, throwing that metaphorical bait at the blond.

"No, Mizuki, it's forbidden!" Iruka shouted out, unknowingly adding to the bait.

"Now, wait just a moment! This sounds mildly important to me and I feel like I should hear this. What's forbidden?" he asked, looking between his two teachers.

"Mildly important?" Kami said to Naruto with a half-raised eyebrow.

"There is a decree created by the Third Hokage himself that you are forbidden from knowing! That decree forbids us from telling you that you, Naruto, are the Nine-Tailed Fox! You're the demon who attacked the village and kid so many innocent people!" he called out dramatically, watching the blond for the information to set in.

"This guy is such an idiot," the goddess said shaking her head.

"Yup," Naruto agreed.

"Wait, everyone hates me because they think I'm a demon fox that attacked the village? Why would everyone antagonize me then? I mean, if I was a monstrous fox, I think upsetting me would be the last thing I'd do," Naruto said logically, tilting his head to the side.

"That does make an awful lot of sense, but honestly, I just don't like your luscious blond hair! It's so unfair that you have such beautiful hair! You and that damn Yamanaka, I've hated you both for the longest time!" he shouted in anger and accidentally losing his balance. He fell off the tree and slammed his head into the ground knocking himself out.

"You do have beautiful hair. I can see why he so jealous of it," Kami said, running her fingers through his hair.

"Thanks," Naruto blushed at the compliment. "You have nice hair too," he returned the compliment.

"Oh…" Naruto said, staring at his knocked-out teacher. "That seemed very anticlimactic…" he mumbled, turning toward his other sensei who was staring at his unconscious colleague.

"Yeah, kind of skips the whole emotional scene between Iruka and me," Naruto said, nodding his head in agreement with his other-self.

Iruka finally snapped out of his daze and looked at his blond student. "Naruto close your eyes, I have a surprise for you," he said with a kind smile.

Naruto blinked, "I was just tricked by a teacher and now you want me to close my eyes on you? Seem legit," Naruto said, closing his eyes anyways. He kept them close until he felt something get tied around his forehead.

"Congratulations, Naruto, you pass," he congratulated.

"Oh wow, I don't really know why I passed though…"

"Plot."

"That makes sense…"

The screen faded to black.

Kami turned toward her fellow blond. "So, what did you think of that one?" she asked wanting his opinion like usual.

"Well, it was different than the last couple. I enjoyed getting away from the more serious worlds, but I feel like this one painted our world as kind of dumb, ya know?" he answered with his own question.

"Some worlds are like that, almost like a parody in some ways."

"Still had fun!"

"That's good."
