"Naruto's not home?" Sakura asked Kushina in surprise as she sat in the living room. Sakura had wanted to check up on Naruto's hip, but when she got to Naruto's house she had been surprised by the information that Naruto wasn't home. It wasn't like he had very many places to go, even more so since he stopped working at the martial arts dojo.

Sasuke was already in the living room.

"The idiot has been busy with whatever." Sasuke stated with a grunt.

Kushina was used to Naruto being called an idiot by Sasuke and Sakura, the three of them were super close friends after all. Insults between them were so common, heck, it would be easier to count the number of times Sasuke called Naruto "Naruto" instead of calling him idiot.

"Naruto has a lot to think about." Kushina explained a little better than Sasuke did.

"Right... I noticed that in the paper that he was selected to be the first male Keijo player. He's getting pretty popular. A few doctors have been talking about him. What school is he going to go to?" Sakura asked as she sat herself down next to Sasuke. His only action was placing his hand on her thigh, and she smiled at him. She placed her hand on top of his own, and the two of them just sat in comfort.

Sakura did notice that Kushina was smiling more solemnly then before.

"That's the problem, he doesn't know which school to go to. Both gave pretty good offers... but better school is further away, and the other one is located on a smaller island." Kushina spoke, seeing as that was the root of the problem. It was either the smaller island school, or the school that was hours away from home. "... Sometimes I curse these stupid legs." Kushina sighed, since she knew that she was the cause of Naruto's strife.

Her and her stupid legs.

Sakura looked at Kushina sitting down, and nodded knowingly. She had never once seen Kushina standing up before. That was because Kushina had lost the use of her legs the same day that Minato had died. The accident that killed Minato badly damaged Kushina's spine, so she was paralyzed from the waist and below.

Kushina had wanted to become a Keijo player after Naruto became old enough to stay at home alone, but that dream was crushed when Minato died and she lost her legs.

Naruto didn't want to leave her alone, no doubt.

"I'll go talk to him." Sasuke said standing up.

"Jiraiya is went to go and talk to him." Kushina informed Sasuke, who raised a thin eyebrow.

The pervert?

"The pervert?" Sakura asked, unknowingly saying what Sasuke was thinking. Well, they were engaged to be married, so them thinking on the same wavelength was to be expected sometimes.

Kushina smiled.

"Jiraiya is the most perverted man I know... but there isn't anyone I trust more to look after Naruto. Of course, Naruto better not start taking after Jiraiya's habits either." Kushina stated strictly. She loved Jiraiya dearly, he was an important member of their family. He was Naruto's godfather, and Minato's martial art's teacher, as well Naruto's teacher. The man had been so close to their family that Naruto's own name came from Jiraiya after all.

Neither Sakura or Sasuke were convinced.

-With Naruto-

'This is my chance to make history... but damnit.' Naruto thought to himself as he looked at the two applications that he had sitting a good dozen feet away from himself. Naruto sighed as the water from the waterfall slammed down on his shoulders. Naruto sat perfectly still as he looked towards the papers with a frustrated glance. The papers sitting on top of a grave to keep them away from the water.

He was making history.

He was making history, which was the problem. Whatever choice he made would affect more than just himself. The school he went to would be known as the school that produced the first pro male Keijo player... no, the first male Keijo player period.

Setouchi was a good school, and it was closer to home... but it was on an island, so it would be harder to go back home. Suruga was a better school, and it was offering a better deal, but it was further away from home than even Setouchi was.

Naruto felt a hand on his head.

"Hey brat, you gotta take a shit, or are you actually thinking hard for once?" Jiraiya asked, standing in the waterfall and looking down at Naruto with a mocking grin. He had his hand knocked away as Naruto slapped it. Naruto stood up and gave Jiraiya a hard look, with the man laughing at Naruto. "Are all of the thoughts of the beauties weighing on you? Going body to body, booty to booty, tits to chest with those gals is a man's dream. You got it made." Jiraiya continued on, and Naruto sucker punched him in the gut.

"Uuuh."

"Shut up Pervy Hermit, can't you see I'm having a hard time here?" Naruto asked with a frown.

Jiraiya wiggled his eyebrow.

"I bet that isn't the only hard thing. Of course, those ladies will be wet when they face you... you've matured into quite the young man." Jiraiya stated with a perverted grin, and Naruto sighed in annoyance.

"Is that a joke about me being hot... or me throwing them into the water?" Naruto asked with sarcasm.

"Little of both."

"Course... If that is all, I'm going to go back to thinking." Naruto stated as he went back to sitting down, and Jiraiya joined him. He looked down at Naruto proudly for a moment, before he placed a hand on his shoulder. "What?" Naruto quickly asked, with Jiraiya snorting.

"You know, either school will be lucky to have you. Kushina told me about their offers... you don't need to worry about your mother... She's a strong woman, she doesn't need you to take care of her. Anyway, Sakura and Sasuke will be around to help her out. You aren't abandoning her." Jiraiya stated as he tapped the side of Naruto's head with his knuckles. Naruto rubbed his head and looked at Jiraiya with a curious, questioning look.

How did he know?

Jiraiya grinned.

"... How?"

"I know you better than anyone else. You care more about your friends and family than anyone else. Not to mention you care about... everyone. This has got to be stressful for you... so I think you should be a little selfish here. You want to do this... then do it for yourself. This isn't about living your mother's dream." Jiraiya stated as he poked Naruto in the chest, right over the heart. Jiraiya sighed and looked at the clouds, and then at Minato's grave on the ground. "Your Dad wanted to be the first male Keijo player... but he had no talent for it." Jiraiya pointed out with a soft smile.

He still remembered Minato having that dream.

"Dad did?" Naruto asked with surprise.

"That's way he became a Keijo Engineer... he loved the sport so much. You felt it for yourself... when you are on that land, and going against your opponent... you felt that bond. Your father couldn't become a player... so he decided to make lands that players could use to fight on... to bond on. Yet that isn't to say he gave up on his dreams..." Jiraiya stated with a grin on his face. Minato had studied every known Keijo technique... well expect those that had been created after he had died.

He was always looking for ways to make the sport even better, and ways to teach the girls how to use their moves better.

"Dad... What if I make the wrong choice?" Naruto asked, and Jiraiya snorted.

"There isn't a wrong choice here Naruto. Whatever school you go to... you will meet friends you will form bonds with. Those are the bonds that Minato wanted... that Kushina wanted." Jiraiya lectured Naruto, and Naruto grinned.

That was right, he going to be able to make both of his parent's proud, no matter what choice that he made.

Then he frowned.

"That... doesn't help me pick though..." Naruto stated, and Jiraiya stood up and walked through the water, towards the land.

He cracked his neck.

"You know that Spiralling Hip Sphere you used...?" Jiraiya asked, and Naruto nodded.

What did this have to do with anything?

"Yeah, Dad made it by studying th Vacuum Ass Cannon, and make it safer... but women had trouble using it." Naruto stated, and Jiraiya snorted.

"... Some would call it a bastard Vacuum Ass Cannon, but even the creator of the Vacuum Ass Cannon couldn't use it... your Father couldn't play Keijo... but he was a genius. Yet the technique isn't complete... I say the best school for you, is the school that will help you finish it." Jiraiya stated with a grin on his face, and Naruto nodded his head slowly as he looked at his own reflection in the water.

He then saw Jiraiya's face in the water, looking at him with pride.

Naruto saw that grin, and grinned back.

"Thanks perv... but I'm not just going to complete it... I'm going to turn this technique into my signature move... I'm going to take it further than Dad ever dreamed." Naruto stated as he walked towards the applications on the ground, and picked one of them up. Naruto looked down at the other application

Jiraiya smirked.

"Well then... tell me of any of your... exploits at the school." Jiraiya spoke with red cheeks, and groping hands.

Naruto glared at him.

Way to ruin a moment.
