I have been busy lately. Sorry that I am a little late. But I am still a novice. So, I still can't write my chapters longer. However, I am still trying to do my best. Let's stop the chit-chat here.

Here goes the chapter 3. Enjoy!

I don't own Naruto.

I don't own Tokyo Ghoul, too. ;)

Chapter 3: Finding a Job

His little act with 4 boys almost made him get expelled from school. But he managed to get away from it after he had begged Kurama to cast a genjutsu on his teacher. Although he avoided from getting expelled, he had to promise that he would never do something like that again to the class.

It is just an another boring day for Naruto. But he needed to do earn some money. He has been sleeping in the streets for several nights by now. So, after school, he started searching for some jobs. He first went to a restaurant and asked for a job. The owner of the restaurant accepted him until a certain waitress came in and talked to the owner about his little 'act'. He got kicked out of the restaurant with a same old warning, 'Never come back again' and a purple circle around his left eye.

He then went to an old house did some lawn chores. The old stingy man gave him just a little that he could only have just a cup of coffee. Feeling disappointed, he started walking around the city. He climbed one of the top buildings and started enjoying the breathtaking view of a sunset sitting on the edge of the roof.

'I guess I will still have to sleep in the streets for another day." thought Naruto disappointedly.

"Come on kit, where did all your hyper active attitude go?" asked Kurama.

"Why have you been silent the whole time? Shouldn't you be helping me? We are staying in the one body, aren't we?" asked Naruto.

"For your first question, I am just enjoying you get beaten. And, I have been sleeping in this cage for more than 17 years. SO, WHY SHOULD I BE HELPING YOU TO EARN SOME MONEY? I don't even need those stupid papers." replied Kurama.

"Whatever..." he said.

"Oh hey Kurama, Have you ever heard about ghouls?"

"Oh yeah, they are some kind of ghosts."

"G-g-ghosts? " he asked again with a frightened face.

"Yeah, I th-"

"I am getting out of here as soon as possible! I am not living here with those ghosts."

"Oh, the great Naruto is afraid about ghosts? What happened to our plan of starting a new life here?" said with a laugh.

"I can't start a new life where ghosts are!" he shouted back in a frightful tone.

"Hahaha you should have seen the look on your face."

"I am just kidding, kit. I have never heard of such things called ghouls before."

"Stupid furball, stop joking in serious cases."

"When did you have serious cases? As long as I remember you are always carefree."

"Ahhh... Whatever" said Naruto as he cut the mental link between them.

Suddenly two people wearing police uniform came in and asked "HEY, How did you get up here? And you are not allowed here too."

He just ignored them. He already had enough trouble for today. He didn't want to get into another one. So, he just jumped from the edge and landed on the solid ground without even a crash.

The two cops run to the edge where Naruto was sitting and looked down expecting to see the dead body of the boy.

But there was no trace of the earlier boy. The boy just disappeared. "Are we still sane?" asked one of the men. "I don't know" answered the other man.

'Man, today is a really tiring day' Naruto thought to himself. He just ran to his ... place? Well, he is just sleeping on a tree for several nights. It was already night-time so he just went to bed or ... to his branch. 'I am gonna need some energy for tomorrow.'

The Next Day

Today was a weekend, so he didn't have to go to school today so the search of his job began. That didn't go well. As he still can't get any jobs. It is about noon by now. His stomach started to buzz. He ran into a nearby café. He went inside and saw an empty seat. He just sat there.

After a while, a waitress came in and asked "What would you like to serve?"

"Something I can eat with 300 yen" he said as he showed her the only money he had. (AN: I don't know about Japanese currency. So, I will just guess.) "Oooookay..." replied the waitress unsure what to say anymore. He then recognized the voice and looked up only to see his purple haired friend. "Oh Touka-chan, you work here?"

She then recognized the only person who call her 'Touka-chan'.

"Naruto? Is that you?"

"Yeah that's me. You don't even recognize me? I am hurt." said Naruto with anime tears.

"Whatever. For your question, yes, I work here. You look like you are ... broke." said the girl.

"Oh yeah, Uhhh ... since I got here I had no money. I just earn some yesterday."

"Oh I didn't know you were that broke."

"Uhhh... Haha, Anyway, can I work here too? I need to earn some money."

"Oh about that, you can ask the manager. What about your order?"

"Never mind my order. I am going to talk with your manager." said Naruto as he started to run.

"Do you even know where the manager is?" said Touka with deadpan expression.

"Oh yeah, where is he?" said Naruto as he rubbed the back of his head.

"He is at his office upstairs"

He then run upstairs and went into the office and knocked the door. Then he heard a reply "come in"

He then walked in there and said "Oh, you must be the manager."

"Yes I am, is there a problem, sir?"

"No no no, I just want to work here."

'Hmm ... He smells like a human, but why am I smelling a fox's scent from him?' thought to himself.

"There is no problem in letting you join. When would you like to start working?" he said as he handed him an outfit which came out of nowhere.

"Starting today!" he said enthusiastically. He then changed his clothes and ran downstairs.

'Kids today have so much energy' he thought.

"Hey, Touka-chan. I am now working here." he said.

"Oh, that's great Naruto." replied the girl.

'I wonder why the manager accepted him, I thought he doesn't accept humans.'

"Oh hey, by the way, can you teach me the basics of being a waiter? I have never worked as a waiter before." said Naruto with a sheepish smile.

"Okay no problem" she replied.

At last he got a job. He was really happy with that. He can now start earning his money to buy a house. It has been a busy day for him or you can say head smacking day. Touka has been smacking his head whenever he made a mistake to make him able to learn faster. As we know, Naruto is really 'good' at learning things.

He has been training after his work running around the city for about 100 times to increase his stamina. It was already night-time after he has finished his exercise. As usual, he was walking back to his tree while looking around the city. He then heard a scream in the streets, and ran towards it. To his surprise, he saw a certain purple haired girl with a wing behind her eating a man.

"T-Touka ...-chan?"
