Chapter 1: Pilot
A sun-kissed blond missile. This is all the general populous of The Hidden Leaf Village saw, that plus the multitude of Chunnin vest clad ninja.
"NARUTO!"
"Come back here you BRAT!"
These were amongst some of the cries of desperation. For some, the pranks this seven-year-old child would pull would put a smile on their normally indifferent features. For the majority, as a Shinobi Village, this was a routine and tiring exercise.
"No-one's catching me this time!" the excitable blond returned.
Naruto Uzumaki, citizen of the Village Hidden in the Leaves, attendee of the of the Ninja Academy and the self-proclaimed future Hokage. He would tell anyone who would listen that his dream was to lead his village in the most prestigious position whether that be in times of peace or war. Whilst this was part of the dream that was vocalised, his real goal and ambition was to be recognised, not as a great shinobi but as a human.
For reasons unknown to him he was ostracised by the wide majority of the village, they weren't glares, but looks of animousity, some even of pity. The stares on top of the whispers that continued to follow him all over the village. He was seen as the village misfit, the problem child. This always confused his young mind as he started his pranking adventure after recognising his status in the Village, as a child he learned to brush this off and decided that a loud, boisterous and confronting personality would attract attention. Oh, did it ever attract attention, just not quite the positive kind. These decisions lead us back to where we are now.
He was running from the aftermath of yet another one of his infamous pranks, this particular outing involved the transporting of a particular strand of the Aburame's Kidaichu insects to the Inuzuka Kennels.
At the pace this young boy was moving it would be a while until this chase ended.
~ Two Hours Later ~
Naruto found himself situated on top on a ledge facing away from the centre of the village hidden by conjoining rooftops. Panting heavily, he was attempting to make him as small as possible to not be seen by any passers-by.
After spending close to ten minutes catching his breath he began to take in his surroundings, he was in a similar setting to his porch the backed up his apartment. But in that gloomy setting one detail struck him as out of place there were these kanji that lined the wall next to the door frame that read: "Endurance, Love of Sword". He didn't know what struck him to take up any interest in this detail, but his attention was already drawn.
So, as the majority of seals require he reached out his palm covering a portion of the seal, channelled some chakra into it for it to glow a light blue and then once again darken. 'What is the point of this if all it does is glow?' he thought, then glanced out to the streets and saw the colour of the sky. Seeing the amber horizon, he jumped to his feet and prepared to sneak back to his apartment.
'Crap!' had he really be there for so long. "If the stores are closed, I can always go to
Teuchi-oji-san and Ayame-nee-chan" he said to himself. His adoptive family owned and operated a small ramen stand situated in central regions of the village. Yes, it was a small walk, but for what Naruto thought of as 'The Food of the Gods' this was brushed aside.
It took Naruto a further thirty-long-minutes of sticking to shadows and ducking between crowds to avoid being to reach Ichiraku Ramen, his second home. Pushing the flaps aside, he craned his head in to see his favourite ramen-chef casually stirring away at what one would assume to be a large pot of ramen broth. On the other hand, his sister figured was promptly passed out with her head on the counter and a puddle of drool pooling below her mouth.
"AYAME-NEE-CHAN!"
Said person bolted upright and scrambled backwards almost bumping into her father the falling on her backside. After a few seconds of blinking and returning to her senses, she broke out of her stupor and noted that their number one customer was struggling to remain on his looking due to him keeling over in laughter.
Quicker than he could blink Ayame had gotten up, bolted over and bopped him on the top of his head. "Hello to you to Naruto-kun" she said in an all too sweet manor whilst being surrounded by dark clouds and glowing purple aura, needless to say he shivered and shrunk into himself.
"We've seen and heard about your exploits today so why don't you tell us in detail, give us the inside scoop ne?"
After spending the next hour with the hospitable ramen chefs, he paid for his servings and made his way home, his head was disposed, he just couldn't get it out of his head. 'What was it? why was it there? How does it work? These and a plethora of other questions had him completely absorbed. Without taking any notice he had strolled right up to his front door. With all of the questions in his head, his decision was to sleep on it. Once again, his thoughts were plagued by that damn seal after seeing the clock strike one in the morning, he forced all thoughts out of his head and drifted off to sleep.
~ The next morning (Saturday 6:00) ~
As the sun began to rear its head above the horizon light flooded Naruto's apartment, how he despised those blinds and always being open at the worst times. Five hours of sleep, that was all he got, and he was definitely feeling the effects of his affliction. Grudgingly he pulled himself out of his bed, throwing his legs over the side his bed he caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror on the opposing side of the room.
Him in his grey-long-sleeved pyjamas and black and white walrus sleeping hat looked back at him. Immediately a thought struck him 'Is this how ninjas wake up? Is this how the elites present themselves?', this was not how he let alone any dedicated and self-respecting ninja should wake up.
Getting to his living room he recalled his lack of food, due to the chase the day before he had not been able to go and purchase more instant ramen packets without risking the possibility of being hauled off to 'Hokage-jiji'.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage, The Professor and his most menacing moniker, The God of Shinobi which was inherited from his Sensei's, Tobirama Senju the Second Hokage's elder brother Hashirama Senju, the First Hokage, face of the end of the 'Warring States Period' and most famous for his legendary Kekkei Genkai, the 'Wood Style'. Naruto's grandfather figure, the man who ran the very village he lived in, all the pressures of maintaining an economy, successful shinobi corps and healthy relationships between other lands and villages.
He was showing signs of frailty in what was well past his twilight period, admittedly he had chosen a successor and that successor had taken office. Unfortunately, after only a year and a half of service he bore witness to the worst tragedy the Hidden Leaf Village has seen.
~ Flashback (October 10th, Night of the Nine-Tailed-Fox Attack) ~
Minato Namikaze, still a fairly wet behind the ears Hokage, was atop his own head on the Hokage Monument, staring down the Fox. His white-short-sleeved coat flowed around his calves adorned with red-flames along the bottom.
His spiky blond hair with two bangs on each side of his forehead shaped his face, his piercing blue eyes reviewed his current situation. The fox was terrorising the southern side of the village, until its eyes met those of the current Hokage.
Everybody stood still. The wind at that point in time was deafening, all else stood completely still.
The Fox began turning, blue and maroon pools of chakra began amassing around it's mouth. The Ball of compressed, pure chakra shot towards Minato.
~ Present time ~
Naruto had a fire burning, this seal, no all seals seem to intrigue him, from storing basic equipment to the seals that surrounded the village as its base of security. He would go to the library, this had never once occurred, Naruto Uzumaki never visited the library but then again nothing had interested him like that seal.
Naruto was making his way towards the library, as it was the weekend, he had no commitments.
The sounds of high-speed objects caught his attention, he turned his eyes to the rooftops, green, black and blue blurs were all his eyes managed to pick up. Ever since he had seen the way people looked at Jiji, the respect he commanded and the adoration of anyone who set their eyes on him, he wanted that, that path required him to be a ninja, but not just that, a shinobi who would have proved himself time and time again and have the ability and certainty to give his life for the Hokage and the Village.
Every ninja was a measuring stick for Naruto, he had a minimal understanding of the ranks,
Genin, Chunnin, Jonin and finally Kage. There was an unattainable rank that was donned by that of Hiruzen Sarutobi's students, his Genin team. Jiraiya the Gallant, Tsunade, the granddaughter of the First Hokage, the strongest kunoichi and greatest medical ninja and finally Orochimaru of the snake summons, the prodigy, the genius, the traitor. These three were regarded as only second to the Kage, they were known as The Hidden Leaf's Legendary Sanin.
Even though he had found the lectures and lessons in the Ninja Academy particularly boring and mind-numbing, the topic of powerful shinobi always drew his attention. They were interesting.
At the prospect of closing in on becoming a strong ninja he couldn't keep his glee to himself, hi walk turned to a jog, his jog to a sprint, all while laughing his head off at what he could do.
Naruto was by no means an elegant person so when he realised, he was only twenty feet from the door of the library, he freaked out. In an attempt to slow down he dug his feet into the dirt path, this failed spectacularly. He became an orange tumbling mess, and as he was about to hit the door an unsuspecting Jonin began exiting the library, they quickly picked up on the incoming accident and body-flickered to escape any involvement in what was to come.
Unknowingly the poor library assistant who was currently carrying her large stack of papers become the roadblock for Naruto.
As the two collided paper was shot into the air whilst the two of them lay crumpled in heap of human limbs.
Naruto immediately leapt to his feet whilst struggling to get cognizant thought and give the poor librarian sufficient apologies.
"It is quite alright, just if you could, a hand in collecting all those papers would be greatly appreciated" The librarian managed to get out through Naruto's apologies.
"Of course, of course"
Spending the next five minutes collecting and arranging the papers the female assistant decided to voice her thoughts.
"May I ask what had you so interested that you would barrel into the library like that"
"Ahhh, yes sorry…. I was looking for some stuff on seals"
"Is that so is it? I didn't take you for someone to be interested in that form of skills"
Being as childish as you could expect from a seven-year-old, Naruto pouted at the lack of respect given by the girl. "Yeah!.. and what would you know? Huh?" the serious manner the assistant had adopted instantly retreated as she burst into a fit a giggles.
"No need to be so defensive, I wasn't being serious" this clearly did little to placate the orange clad boy as the pout became even more pronounced.
"Sure, sure…. but I'm just interested in them okay"
"Of course, basic sealing and further advancement are four isles down on your right between the chakra control exercises and Shinobi history"
"Thanks! uh…" he let the statement draw out suddenly realising that he never asked for her name. "Shiho" was her curt reply with a small bow.
"Thanks a lot Shiho-chan"
After exchanging simple pleasantries, Naruto made his way to the seals section of the library. This is where he stumbled on just the right type of book 'Know Your Seals: The Gama-sennin, Jiraiya'. This book would help him identify exactly what type of seal he saw, whilst he was reading through this book he was astounded by the variability and power
seals had, from summoning contracts to chakra and jutsu storage scrolls.
He could do almost anything.
Knowing that he had come across what he wanted, he went to find Shiho and check the book out. Naruto had found Shiho currently filing away the papers he had seen in the stack before. "Hey! Shiho-chan, how do I check this book out?"
"Ah, Naruto-san, follow me to the front desk if you want to get that book to check it out"
"Sure, let's go"
"Ah, Naruto-san, as a civilian you are able to check two books or scrolls out a time"
"Oh"
"Just wanted to let you know, you said you were interested in seals, chakra control is a great partner to that area"
"Really! Why's that?" The disappointment in the sigh from Shiho was palpable.
"Naruto, you need chakra in all types of seals, with poor control, you may not put in enough chakra and it won't function, or you may put in too much chakra and it could backfire, when that happens seals tend to become… explosive"
"Ahhhhh…"
As the conversation continued Shiho managed to convince Naruto into taking 'Chakra Control: The Basics'. Needless to say, our favourite blond was ecstatic, in his mind he was one step closer to acknowledgement. Sprinting out the door he stopped to say goodbye "See ya later Shiho-chan".
"Goodbye Naruto-san, I look forward to seeing you around"
Naruto had never run home so fast in his life.
~ A Week Later ~
Naruto was completely absorbed, he had finished his book on seals, but he still couldn't identify what that seal he had found was. On the other hand, his progress with the chakra control exercises was abysmal, he did not struggle with any of the concepts, but the practical application couldn't be worse.
He couldn't make it more than for steps up the tree and the leaf sticking exercise resulted in the leaf being blown away every time.
This struggle leads us to Naruto's current situation. He was currently residing in training ground '45', "Kami! Dammit, what am I doing wrong?!". The answer to this question was a kunai whizzing out of the nearby tree line, the kunai was obviously a warning shot, but for a child it immediately got his danger senses ringing.
Before he could cover five feet another kunai came from in-front of him, quicker than he could think the kunai sliced along his left cheek, not a large cut but deep enough to draw blood. Naruto was frozen with fear, he then suddenly felt a body firmly pressed against his back, his breath hitched, and body further tensed.
"Oooohhh…. What do we have here? Fresh blood?" the feel of a tongue sliding along the cut.
"What sweet tasting blood you have their, mind if I have another taste?
This freaky question immediately broke Naruto out of his stupor as he tried to jump away only for his ankle to get caught. He was suddenly being hung by his foot and oh was he receiving an eyeful.
The figure in front of him was dressed in black shinobi sandals, grey shin-guards, fishnets that went from the mid-thigh up into her burnt orange skirt, these fishnets continued onto the torso and were the only layer of clothing on her upper-body not including the tan trench coat that reached her knees. One of her more eye capturing features where her darker purple hair and pupil-less brown eyes.
Seeing the clothing that clearly emphasised her desirable figure Naruto's face began to burn so red that he could almost turn the roots of his hair red.
"See something you like? Eh gaki?", this was all too much for the orange clad child as he did something he had never done before.
Naruto Uzumaki fainted.
~ Half-an-hour later ~
After regaining consciousness Naruto's eyes fluttered open revealing that he had not moved from the clearing he was in previously in. In an attempt to move he shrugged his shoulders to find himself bound to the tree by multiple ropes. As he was not yet fully awake het let out a very intelligent response to his situation "Guhhh… what is going on?"
"Welcome to the land of the living gaki!" The female from before responded, he noted that she was hanging upside down of a branch in a nearby tree.
"Gahhh! It's you again! What's your problem?" He screamed, as he continued to struggle to get free.
"I was just enjoying some time by myself until I was interrupted by some annoying kid's shouting, you wouldn't happen to know who that would have been would you?" The mirth in her voice was evident. After asking her question she leaps down from her perch and landed a few feet away with a foxy grin plastered on her features.
"Weeellll…."
"It's this stupid chakra control exercises! Nothings working!"
"Oh, and why would you need to practice chakra control?" she queried, she knew that she was egging him on, it didn't bother her though, teasing someone was always fun.
"To be a strong ninja of course"
"You, you want be a ninja?" the pout on Naruto's face was instant.
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"A scrawny gaki like you could never be a ninja, that's what that meant" The female could barely keep her chuckles in a Naruto almost began to froth at the mouth in pure anger.
"And who are you to say that? Huh?" This was the wrong question to ask as the girl immediately struck and extremely provocative pose, accentuating her breasts and hips and returned with.
"The Hidden Leaf's number one Kunoichi: The sexy and single Anko Mitarashi!"
"sure" The pout on Naruto's face vanished instantly and was replaced by a blank stare.
"Oh, and your one to comment on who's a good shinobi when your what? Barely in the academy, you've got be what six?"
"Seven actually, and what make you such a good ninja?"
Deciding to humour the young boy she continued "I am currently a Chunnin and one of the top interrogators in the T&I department, and I'm known for resorting to more physical methods..." She stated whilst now dangling a kunai near his face once again. This quickly shut the boy up as he was not interested in being made a pincushion by this psycho.
"Moving on who are you gaki?"
"Stop calling me that-"
"-Well you still haven't given me a name"
"Naruto Uzumaki: Future ninja and Hokage of the Hidden Leaf, believe it!" he said triumphantly, at first Anko adopted quite a thoughtful look 'So this is the Nine-tails brat, doesn't seem that bad to me' she thought. She was quite intrigued by the conviction in his voice until she burst out laughing. This took all of the wind out of Naruto's sails.
"What's so funny? Don't think I can do it?" 'Just like everyone else' he thought after finishing.
"No, not at all, I believe you can" Naruto whipped his head to meet her face whilst she was still trying to contain her laughter, his eyes full of surprise.
"Really?" his voice was so full of hope.
"Nope" the face-fault and loss of hope only further fuelled her teasing as she caved into her laughter and started rolling on the ground.
"Just as I thought- "
"-That must be hard for you" she interjected
Naruto just brushed off the jab before continuing "You're just like everyone else treating me like I don't exist, not thinking that I can do anything" Oh how wrong Naruto was to say this. Anko was also one to suffer from the Village's disdain. As a former apprentice to the former snake Sanin Orochimaru, before he became a missing-nin, when she returned from her so-called training trip, with severe memory loss and a cursed seal of heaven, one of Orochimaru's 'gifts', many associated her with her former sensei.
As a way to ignore the looks and whispers she garnered she became a power kunoichi and gave them something to talk about in what one would consider her scanty dressing habits.
Before Naruto could even continue his train of thought a kunai lodged itself in the ground mere centimetres from his prized possessions.
"Ahhhhh! What the hell is wrong with you?"
"Do not ever compare to those ignorant and moronic villagers"
"Huh?"
"They treat me as some sort of flight risk, ready to betray our village at a moment's notice" This obviously confused Naruto as he was unaware of Anko and her former master's history.
"B -but that makes no sense, you said you were the number one kunoichi, why would the villagers think that?" he replied.
"None of your business gaki, now I'm going to see ya later" she said as she strolled away, waving over her shoulder.
This whole interaction had been a bit too much for Naruto, so it wasn't until Anko left that he realised his predicament.
"Aaahhh, you psycho! Come back here and untie me!" These cries fell on deaf ears, although he did believe he could hear a faint chuckle in the distance.
~ 3 Months Later ~
Naruto had found himself once again in training ground '45', he had almost mastered his tree climbing he could stick to the side for almost an hour, during that hour he would also practice that academy taijutsu style takas.
After finishing up with his chakra control exercises, he jumped down from the tree and ran over to his books. He had become well accustomed to the library as he would spend the weekends there familiarising himself with scrolls, he was using the example scrolls to practice his sealing of inanimate objects, normally just other books.
These tests had been just as Shiho had warned, on multiple times the seals would react violently to say the least. This led to him being removed quite often from the library due to being too disruptive.
He had become quite friendly with the assistant and was always striking up a conversation whenever he arrived, she doted on him like an older sister would, forcing him into regular quizzing of what he learned from the scrolls and books.
On top of the weekend study he would train and study every night until he dropped, even with all this extra practice Naruto was still struggling in the academy. He was always too tired for class and the stuff he was learning wasn't covered by the academy curriculum.
Iruka Umino had been fairly apathetic towards the young boy, for the start of their student-teacher relationship Iruka thought the best course of action would be to ignore Naruto's lazy and disinterested antics. Over time he was surprised with a steady growth in his skills with kunai and shuriken and on top of that was no longer the worst in the class at taijutsu, that position was manned by Shikamaru Nara and Choji Akimichi, both for the impressive laziness and passive nature respectively, though when someone comments on an Akimichi rather large body size they are quickly met with unbridled rage.
Whilst there was a technical and physical improvement, it was more than clear that due to all that extra training he was too lethargic and exhausted to perform to a sufficient level. Even with his improvement he remained as the 'dead-last', a moniker he despised. The lack of improvement in his standing in the class was due to his continued failings in the written and knowledge-based tests.
Back to his current studying in the clearing a familiar sight made Naruto lose concentration and leap into a defensive stance, a kunai had pinned his scroll to a nearby tree.
"I swear to kami that is your that psycho again I'm going to go lose it! I am not in the mood!"
Naruto had recently lost another sparring match to 'Sasuke-teme' he had nicknamed him as. The village treated Sasuke as their resident Golden child. Ever since two years ago Sasuke had completely retreated into himself, he completely blocked out everyone who approached him.
Naruto had learned about the devastating horror show known as the 'Uchiha Massacre', Sasuke's older brother Itachi Uchiha had one night slaughtered the entirety of his clan excluding his younger brother. Itachi claimed that Sasuke was weak and the was nothing to gain from killing him along with everyone else, he told Sasuke to hate him, despise him with all of his being for when was has hatred, that is when one is strong. He was told to gain the same eyes as him, which at that point was a development in the Uchiha Clan's Blood line limit, the Sharingan. This development was known as the Mangekyou Sharingan, a level of visual prowess that can only be achieved through the killing of one's best friend.
Sasuke indeed despised his brother, but he refused to gain the Mangekyou Sharingan as he would not throw away another's life for the cause of killing Itachi Uchiha.
When our favourite blond heard of this tragedy, he made an attempt to show support for the young boy, which, in his regular manner he shrugged it off and told him that he wouldn't need anyone's pity or support, let alone the 'dead-last', oh how he hated that nickname. At first Naruto was insulted, but over the coming weeks he accepted it as was for someone to of lost their family.
He was broken out of his musing by a second kunai that hurled past his head taking a few of his strands of hair with it.
"Ahhh… did someone not enjoy our last get together?"
"Of course, I didn't enjoy it! I was tied to a tree for three hours" he replied.
"Awww..." Anko responded, holding her hands to her exposed chest in mock hurt before continuing "And I like it when their tied up and helpless" to any mature male this would been a threatening image. Anko recognising he innocence body-flickered to behind the young boy before giving him a much more detailed explanation of her humour.
Needless to say, Naruto had never been more embarrassed in his life.
"Awww…. Look, the chibi gaki is getting all flustered" she teased.
"What do you want?" Naruto queried.
"Eat lots of dango, have lots of sex, kill a certain bastard, no particular order"
"I feel like I'm repeating these questions whenever I talk to you. So, for the final time, what is wrong with you? And what do you want?" Anko was quite taken aback by the lack of humour in Naruto's tone.
"Jeez gaki no need to be like that" she rebutted before thoughtfully stroking her chin "As for what's wrong with me, nothing I'm just a bit… um what's the word? Eager that's it, when things interest me, I look into it. On to what I want, well you interest me so I'm looking into it"
"What's so interesting about me?"
"You're a kid who is training in seals, which by the way is one of the most technical areas a ninja can invest in, you're doing this while still coming across as lacking basic knowledge."
"Are you just looking to call me stupid?"
Her quick reaction shocked him "No, I do not think you are stupid, just interesting"
"Well, if your gonna stalk me the least you can do is help me train" he stated whilst triumphantly crossing his arms across his chest.
"Why would I train you? What's in it for me?"
"You get known for training a future Hokage of course!" There was nothing but pure conviction in what our favourite blond was saying. "Nah, not enough for me, I would prefer something more practical in return"
"What do want? Please?" Other times he had asked Anko about what she want with distaste but the eagerness and hope in his voice. "Weellllllll…. Eating the best food in the world would be considered payment enough" she spoke sagely whilst stroking her chin.
"You eat Ichiraku Ramen too?" Naruto was ecstatic, not only would he get some real training, but he would have an excuse to eat even more ramen. This couldn't be going better for him. "What's 'Ichiraku Ramen'?"
"What do you mean 'What's 'Ichiraku Ramen'?', you said you want the best food in the world"
"Yeah, and I meant it, so, if you want me to train you, you're paying for some dango. Got it?"
"Fine. But just so you know Ramen is the best food in the world" A mock look of horror displayed across the snake mistress's features before she replied in a playful tone "Sacrilege, how dare you say that"
Without question this argument went on for at least another hour where at that point they had found themselves outside Anko's favourite dango shop.
~ With Hiruzen Sarutobi (Third Hokage) and his crystal ball ~
Hiruzen was happy, as he sat at his desk with a content smile watching the two widely considered outcasts having a playful argument. For a long time he had known that Anko had completely shut herself off from anyone who wasn't Kurenai Yuhi, The Genjutsu Mistress of the Hidden Leaf, Yugao Uzuki, ANBU and wearer of the Cat mask, Hana Inuzuka, Heiress to the Inuzuka Clan and its foremost skilled in Veterinary services, Ibiki Morino, Head of the T&I Department In the Hidden Leaf, The Hokage himself and the old man at the dango stall.
The social situation surrounding Naruto was even more bleak, he had no one outside of his grandfather figure. This was due to the children his age being informed by their parents to avoid Naruto as he was 'a trouble-maker' and 'just a nuisance'
Even though he was happy for the pair, he couldn't suppress the shudder that came when imagining Naruto pranks coupled with the snake mistresses sadistic streak. It would be a horror show if that was ever to happen.
~ With Naruto and Anko ~
"Welcome to the gate of heaven" she rolled out in a dramatic tone whilst exaggerating opening the swinging the double doors open.
"Well, I'm glad you think so highly of my humble shop" both Anko and Naruto turned to see a man who looked to be in his fifties behind the counter. "Old man! Good to see you, I'm simply introducing this gaki to the wonders of dango"
Another hour passed, this brings us to our current state, Anko looking very content patting her stomach with a pile of greased plates and dango sticks next to her and a depressed Naruto holding his empty frog shaped wallet.
"I was supposed to introduce to the joy that dango brings, why didn't you have any?" Anko was a little disappointed that he hadn't tried any dango but that feeling was forgotten as she got her fill.
"You emptied me out" he punctuated that statement by giving a deadpan stare and shaking his open wallet upside down
"Why didn't you say anything? I would've stopped if you said something"
"Nah, it's all good, you were enjoying yourself. I've gotta go, I'll see you later!"
Before Anko could get a word in Naruto had already bolted off. Anko was feeling quite guilty after all she had just dried up a seven-year-olds savings and didn't apologise. She decided that she would make it up to him, 'Hang on, he asked for training, I guess I can give it a go'. She was broken out of her musings by a dango shop owner with a lecherous grin. "My, My Anko-chan, whilst it's good to see you happy, he's a bit young for you ne?"
With a light tinge of pink adorning her cheeks in embarrassment she replied "Pays for my dango, he's nice, does lots of pranks. Age is just a number and they do say love is blind" she replies emotionlessly leaving a stunned dango seller to stutter out responses.
Anko's face twisted into a foxy grin as she prepared to leave as well
"Just kidding! Hahaha the look on your face" Anko barely managed to get the words out between her fits of laughter.
~ Outside Naruto's Apartment twenty minutes later ~
"Ughh… I don't even get dinner, hang on, I didn't even confirm whether she was gonna train me!" Naruto just lets out another tired groan.
Just as he caught sight of his front door, he was surprised to see a kunai lodged in it. The discrimination had never become physical, it always remained at a social and verbal level, so this kunai immediately put Naruto on edge.
As he stepped closer and closer towards the kunai, he noticed that there was a piece of paper wrapped around the ring in the handle. Naruto ginger plucked the kunai from his door and began to unravel the piece of paper.
The note read:
'Training ground '44' 4:30 Tomorrow Afternoon
Anko
p.s. if your late I will find you and I will feed you to my snakes'
Naruto brushed the threat off; he didn't care.
He had a new kickass sensei!
"Wahoo, one step closer to Hokage, what's the teme gonna say about that, this is so cool!"
Naruto was ignorant to the figure sitting on a nearby rooftop, with a smirk adorning her features.
