Well hello everyone I'm back with this story. Please please hold the applause for me. Now here is the low down. This arc of the story line is where we deviate from the books. Here Naruto will get his first quest and adventure on his own. Now his arc will have the laughs and I hope to deliver the goods to you wonderful gents and ladies and other sorts of people and monsters.

There is a time skip between the last chapter and this one so I will have flash backs from Percy and Luke to fill in what happened during their duel. Now I don't know about the rest of you but I can only think that this chapter will be worth the wait. So give me the reviews so face the wrath of the master bolt.

Other then that... Enjoy the chapter

'Aaaaaah, what a day it is.' Thought Kyuubi as the fox lazed on the grass under an oak tree blowing bubbles. The early morning wind went though it's fur as it carried the scents of the city. Apollo's chariot slowly rose as if the god was still waking up from what ever the god did at night.

(Hic) (Hic) (Hic)

Kyuubi looked up from blowing his bubbles to see Naruto walking towards him, looking worried. "(Hic) Kyuubi! (Hic) I have (Hic) have (Hic) I (Hic) I have the (Hic) the hic (Hic) the (Hic)"

"What is it? What do you have? A ten dollar bill? A new comic book? What?" Kyuubi asked Naruto.

"The (Hic Hic) I have (Hic) have the (Hic) the (Hic) the hic(Hic) the (Hic) the hic (Hic)..."

'I love doing this.' Kyuubi thought without shame and a large grin on it's face. "So do you think we will be able to post another chapter soon Naruto? I think the natives are getting restless."

(Hic) Naruto glared at his friend or at least tried to. "I (Hic) I don't (Hic) don't (Hic) Think (Hic) your fu(Hic) funny Kyuubi. (Hic) Help me!" (Hic)

"Fine then, I may be able to come up with an idea after I'm done helping you."

"Stop with the ta-(Hic) talking (Hic Hic) to thin (Hic) air Kyuubi!"

"Fine. Here's what we'll try first. They say drinking a glass of water upside down is supposed to help." Naruto raised an eyebrow at Kyuubi as he hiccuped. "It could help."

"(Hic) What the (Hic) the heck (Hic). I'll try (Hic) it."

"So are you ready for school today?" Kyuubi asked as the duo walked towards home. "It's yours and Percy's last day there."

"I (Hic) think (Hic) so Kyuubi." Naruto grumbled as he walked. "But I (Hic) I wish (Hic) that (Hic) that Percy (Hic) and lay off my (Hic) back."

"They are only worried for you kit. Luke nearly killed you and if it wasn't for Percy and Jupiter, plus my help you would of died. You were in the care of Chiron for a week in critical care. Your adoptive mother was in hysterics and Mr. D had to put her asleep to get her to stop choking the centaur when she found out."

"Oh (Hic) yeah." Naruto semi recalled that when he woke up. Chiron had a neck brace on and Sally Jackson was in the chair next to him asleep. Percy told him what happened as Chiron ran as soon as he saw Sally waking up. "Mom was (Hic) angry (Hic) and was (Hic) yelling (Hic) yelling a lot."

"I think mothers do that because they are scared."

"Mom was (Hic) scared? (Hic) Mom (Hic) doesn't get (Hic) scared. Sh(Hic) she's mom!"

"... You did tell her that we were outside right?"

"I thought you did idiot."

"Baka I thought you told her."

"(Hic) She's go(Hic)ing to kill (Hic) me."

"Sucks to be you."

"May(Hic) maybe I'll (Hic) be lucky."

Kyuubi shrugged. "Perhaps, but don't blame me so you can get out of trouble."

Naruto slowly opened the apartment door as he tired to sneak in. Well, as best as one can with hiccups. Closing the door and locking it, Naruto sighed with relief. He frozen in place as he heard the groaning of the floor boards from the master bedroom. Tip toeing to the room, Naruto peeked in to see his mother entering the bathroom. 'Safe.' He thought. That was until he heard his mother though the bathroom door.

"Naruto, go wake up your brother will you please."

"(Hic)Y-yes (Hic) M-mom." Naruto said as he clenched his heart as he tried to clam down.

"You have the hiccups honey? Try to drink a glass of water and if that doesn't work I'll give you a spoon full of sugar. Don't do it yourself you hear me young man?"

"Yes (Hic) mom." With a sigh and a hic, Naruto walked to the kitchen and grab a cup after filling it he looked at Kyuubi. "How the heck (Hic) am (Hic) I supposed (Hic) to drink (Hic) this up(Hic)side down (Hic) kyu?"

"I think you are meant to lean over the drink from the other side."

"Oh." Kyuubi bit the side of his mouth to stop from laughing as Naruto was drenched from head to toe. "(Hic) thanks Kyuubi (Hic) But I (Hic) have wa(Hic) water up (Hic) my nose."

"What do you want to tried next?"

"(Hic) Try to (Hic) to (Hic) scare me."

"OK, I think I can do that." Clearing it's throat, Kyuubi began to list of things. "The is a hole in the ozone that is bombarding the land with UV radiation terrorists are trying to find new ways to cause mass detestation. We are polluting the sources of water we use to drink and the air we breathe with gases that with ture the world into a suna. The government is spying on it's people and is stockpiling the information to plan for the subjugation of the nation's new generations by dumping down the current masses. The gods are preparing for a new world war with the titans and rouge gods. There are mass shootings every month or so..."

"I mean (Hic) Surprise me." Naruto grumbled with a sour look on his face.

"Those don't scare you? Wow, here I thought that you would be affected by what is be talked about on the media."

Ring Ring

Naruto and Kyuubi looked at the telephone. Before Naruto could answer, his mom walked in and answered. "Hello... Oh hello Chiron... I see.. ah huh..." Naruto saw her looking over her shoulder. "I understand... They will be upset you know... No I understand perfectly... Good-bye."

"What (hic) was that (Hic) about mom?" Naruto asked.

Sally Jackson sighed and pulled her son into a hug. "I'll tell you after Percy wakes up. Is that ok honey?" Sally said softly as she rubbed Naruto's back with her hands with love. "He needs to hear this too."

"(HIc) Ok..."

Sally laughed and stood up. "You still have the hiccups huh sunshine? Let's see if I can take care of that." Going though the kitchen to get what she needed to help Naruto and make breakfast, she noticed that Naruto had a worried expression on his face. "Honey is something wrong? Is that bully picking on you again?"

"(Hic) Mom!" Naruto cried out as he watched her get the sugar out. "I said (Hic) that (Hic) I'll take (Hic) care (Hic) of it. (Hic)"

"I see." Naruto scowled as his mother nodded her head. "So that kid was picking on you and your worried that he will do something today. I thought I told you to tell a teacher or do what that anti bulling stuff."

"I (Hic) tried mom! (Hic) He (Hic) didn't...(Hic) won't stop. He and (Hic) his group (Hic) call me (Hic) a (Hic) a wuss and (Hic) make fun (Hic) of me 'cause I play with (Hic) the girls."

"I see... but don't you like playing with the girls honey?" Sally tried to come up with the right words to tell her upset son. "I know that so of them enjoy your company very much."

Naruto's expression when to downcast. "That's not (Hic) the point." He spoke with clenched fingers.

Sally signed, Kyuubi did too... not that she noticed. "I know dear. Now open that mouth of yours so I can help you get rid of those hiccups." Naruto opened and let her place the spoonful of sugar in his mouth. "There. Now run that cute face upstairs and wake up Percy. It's the last day of school."

Naruto nodded and raced off, Kyuubi right on his heels. "So how are you going to wake your brother up today?"

"I'll do it like (Hic) mom told me to first... (Hic) then my way."

"So like an Elephant?"

"Seems like a better plan then me jumping on him (Hic). Now hush."

Percy lied in his bed slumbering. Ever few seconds his hands or eyelids would twitch. So deep in Hynos's and Morpheus's domains that he did not stir when the door opened. He also did not awake to the hands that shook his shoulders. Moaning, he turned over and covered his head with his pillow.

"Percy~"

"Zzzzz"

"Come on Percy wake up." Naruto glared at his brother as Percy snored under his pillow. Growling, Naruto walked towards the closest that the brothers shared. As his walked, he noticed the air shimmering out side the window for a second before disappearing. Ignoring it, Naruto opened the closet doors and grasped what he was looking for. Walking towards the the end of the bed, Naruto took a deep breath in... and blew his horn.

BEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOO

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" Screamed Percy as he flew out of his bed, ears ringing. His eyes darted around the room, looking for the elephant that woke him up. His eyes landed on the form of his brother on the ground laughing his head off. "Why you..."

Percy launched his pillow at Naruto's face and followed suit. The two boys started to tumble around the room, play fighting with each other as Naruto tried to fend his brother off from tickling him. After a minute of this, Naruto raced away laughing. Percy growled as he got up from the floor. Dropping his PJ's to the floor Percy heard an eep from outside his window. Looking towards it he could have sworn there was blood hanging in midair before it disappeared.

'That dream must be making me see things.' Percy thought as he got dressed and left the room. 'I hope Grover is alright.'

"Morning Percy~" Sally called out to her son as she carried a plate of food to the dining room table. Percy grunted as he glared at his brother. "I hope that you have a better attitude for school today Mr. grumpy pants. And Naruto don't blow your horn so early in the morning. Some people are trying to sleep."

"Yes mama." Percy narrowed his eyes at the innocent angel look Naruto was giving his mother. Reaching over he swatted the back of Naruto's head. "Ow... Percy!"

"That's for waking me up like you did." Percy stated as he started to eat waffle.

Their mother walked in carrying a cup of coffee and her food. "Now boys today's the last day of school so let's get off to the right foot 'k?" Noticing that Percy wasn't eating as fast as he usually did she looked at him "Is something wrong dear?"

"I think Grover's in trouble." Percy began telling her and his brother about the dream he had before woken up. Sally pursed her lips as Percy spoke. She was still upset after what happened the last time her children were at the camp.

"Grover's a big satyr now Percy. Besides we would have heard from camp..." Sally trailed off as if trying to find the right words to say. "...Never mind"

"What is it?" Percy asked, seeing that her shoulders were tense.

"Nothing. Tell you what you two. How about after school we go to the Rockefeller Center... to that shop you like Percy. Tyson can join us in celebrating the passing of seventh grade."

Well that was a long chapter to do. Please review and I do hope to post again in a few weeks. See you all later
