Granted, Naruto probably should have known that this was not her best idea. Here she was, covered head to toe in glue and multi-colored feathers, standing sheepishly in the Hokage's office.
"Ah… Jiji… I can explain." She muttered nervously, scratching the back of her head.
The old Hokage leveled a stare at the young Uzumaki, "Well then young Naruto, explain."
The orange-loving academy student was about to open her mouth to begin her long tirade about the damn Uchiha's, when she realized that she probably shouldn't tell her grandfather figure about the small itsy-bitsy fact that she technically lived with a good looking boy five years older than her. Well… time to improvise.
"Umm… it was… Uh… It was Anko! Yeah yeah, that crazy snake lady cornered me! She wanted some help with pranking the Uchiha's, so of course she called me, the best prankster in Konoha! Yup, that's what happened. Totally." Naruto gulped while she plastered a very large, very fake grin. Oh damn Anko was going to kill her for this.
The day started out basic enough. Naruto woke up, took a shower, got dressed, before proceeding to the kitchen to get a bite to eat. It was then, when she found three raven haired boys helping themselves to her cereal.
"Are you kidding me right now!? Are you fucking kidding me!?" She screeched.
"Hey Naru-chan." Shisui greeted with a grin.
"Hi Naruto." Itachi responded.
"Dobe." Sasuke grunted.
Naruto's eyes twitched in anger, "Do you fuckers have no meaning of privacy?! And just what the fuck is the Teme doing here?"
"You really have to watch your language Naru-chan." Shisui commented.
"Fuck off dumbass. I don't remember inviting any of you."
Itachi swallowed his bite of cereal, "Ah yes, cousin Shisui let us in."
Naruto was beginning to turn red in agitation, "Look, just because your lover-" at this Sasuke choked on his milk, "lives here, it does not mean that my apartment is welcome to the entire Uchiha Clan!"
"Tsk, does it look like the entire clan is here Dobe?" Sasuke asked, attitude laced in his voice.
"Ok, that's it!" Before Naruto could lunge at him with a kunai, Shisui was already behind her, holding her back.
"Please don't kill my little cousin. He's sort of amusing at times." Shisui said with a laugh.
Naruto shoved the elder boy off of her, before taking the last seat at the dining room table. "Explain. Now."
Itachi, as the most mature man at the table, decided to be the one to reason with the angry girl, "Last week, after our meeting, Shisui was quickly able to deduct where I've been. I'm afraid I've never been able to keep anything from him. Once he realized this, he decided how much easier it would be to write up reports in peace since now I'm aware of the fact that he has this apartment available for his use. You see, the two of us are often on the same missions together, yet very rarely do we ever find a place to write up our mission reports together where other people can's eavesdrop."
"Such is the woes of a Jonin." Shisui interjected.
Shooting a glare at her roommate, Naruto gestured for Itachi to finish, "Well once we figured this out, we then also realized how much easier it would be for us if we let Sasuke in on the secret as well. He's usually with us anyways, and he could use a place to do his studies without getting interrupted as well. The Uchiha compound is full of overbearing mothers and clingy little cousins."
Naruto's eye continued to twitch, "So you're telling me, that my apartment has become some sort of pseudo-safe house for all of you!"
The three Uchiha's shared a look, before turning to the girl and nodding as one, "Pretty much."
Naruto banged her head against the table. How the fuck has this become her life?
Pretty soon, the boys all left her apartment, finally awarding Naruto with some peace and quiet. Her stomach started grumbling in hunger, however once she looked in her cabinets, not a trace of food could be found.
Fucking Uchiha's at all of my food, I'm going to fucking kill them!
Realizing that she had to leave her house to find any type of meal, she made her way down to Ichiraku Ramen, her home away from home. On her way, she happened to pass by the Dango stand, where she noticed a certain purple-haired tokubetsu jonin. Grinning, the young blond practically skipped towards her.
"Hey Crazy Snake Lady!" Naruto greeted with a grin, as she took a seat beside her.
Wielding a dango stick like a weapon, the elder woman glared at the girl, "What did I tell you about calling me that brat!?"
Naruto sweat-dropped, "Not to?"
Anko dropped her stick of dango, returning her attention back to her meal, "What do you want? To buy me more food?"
"Uh, not exactly. I have a proposition for you."
"Sorry little girl. Don't swing that way. Besides, you're a little young for me anyways."
Naruto turned red, "FUCK NO! That's not what I meant you psycho! I'm ten for Kami's sake!"
Anko snorted, "You might be ten, but you still understood my insinuations. That says a lot more about you than it does about me."
"I'm not the one making sexual comments towards a minor!"
"Riggghhtt. I forgot. You're the girl in love with Shisui."
"NO I'M NOT!"
"Then why did you want to know the jonin's haunts? I think you like like him."
"Why does everybody think that? I don't like the insufferable incorrigible flirt!"
"What are you doing here brat?" Anko finally cut the teasing.
"Like I said. I need your help."
"And makes you think I would help some Academy brat?"
Naruto grinned evilly, "Because it involves seeing the Uchiha's in pain and humiliation."
"Count me in."
Before long, Naruto was due back at the Academy, where Iruka sensei had finally returned back to his post. Taking a seat next the bane of her existence, she looked around to make sure no one was listening. Thankfully, most of the students haven't shown up yet.
"Listen here Teme. If you tell anyone, and I mean anyone, about me living with Shisui, I will personally make sure you will never be able to reproduce. Got it?"
Sasuke sneered, "Oh please, as if I want to admit that the pride of the Uchiha's has slummed down to living with a Dobe."
"You didn't seem to mind this morning at breakfast, now did you?"
Sasuke scoffed, "That's completely different. I, for one, know how to keep my personal life separate from my ninja life."
Naruto fluttered her eyes coyly, "Does that make me a part of your personal life? I knew that you loved me!"
Sasuke was happy that no one noticed him shoving Naruto out of her chair. It wouldn't have done well for his reputation if anyone saw that. However that was tossed to the wayside regardless when Naruto retaliated by tackling him onto the floor.
"This is your fault." Naruto muttered as she cleaned the Academy floors.
"My fault?! I'm not the Dobe who tackled an innocent onto the floor." Sasuke exclaimed, shoving his rag into the bucket of water.
"Innocent!? You pushed me first!"
The Uchiha shrugged, "You deserved it Dobe."
Naruto resisted the urge to throttle the idiot beside her, "I refuse to argue about this. I've wasted enough of my day on you fucking Uchiha's."
Sasuke shot a look at the blond, "Huh. Shisui was right. You really do curse a lot."
Breathe Naruto, you cannot commit murder. You cannot commit murder. You cannot commit murder.
The only thing that was getting Naruto through her day way the memory of the plan she had concocted with Anko. Oh it was going to be glorious.
Anko was amused. Anko was very amused. This blond girl was an absolute riot! Now Anko wasn't quite certain what the young jinchuriki's relationship was with her friend Shisui, but she was pissed at the fact that the Uchiha bastard was the first to discover this absolute gem of a future ninja.
The orange loving girl had proved herself to be just as, if not more, vindictive than Anko herself. It didn't take long for the Uzumaki to convince the older ninja about her plan, for it was practically brilliant. Anko just had to make sure that it went off without a hitch.
After lugging three buckets of glue across the village, Naruto had taken her place just outside of the Uchiha clan compound. Now she just had to wait for her signal. It really was a good thing that she shaved some flamingo feathers from her last prank.
Anko was stationed on a high branch directly above the compound, waiting for the perfect moment to attack. There was no way they could fail!
Unfortunately, both girls forgot to take into account a couple things:
1) Shisui and Itachi were both of a higher rank
2) Despite their idiocy, the Uchiha boys were accomplished ninjas
3) Just because Shisui was injured, did not mean he still wasn't the fastest ninja in the village
And 4) The Damn Sharingan
Taking these few things into consideration, perhaps they should have seen it coming that the plan completely backfired. Like completely.
Anko, the backstabber, was able to get away clean. Naruto on the other hand, well, she was covered in glue and feathers being interrogated by the Hokage.
Damn Uchiha's.
