A Father
Chapter IV: Out the Window
Sakura looked up at Naruto, tears
still running down her face but she smiled, "Thank you."
She walked toward the entrance to the hole and looked back at Naruto,
"Write my name in the book for me." She quick walked back
and gave Naruto a peck on the cheek, "Naruto. for now will you
do me a favor?"
Naruto was slightly confused, "Uuhh
yeah, sure."
"Keep it a secret. You'll hear
about this once more soon" She jumped up the hole leading out.
Naruto heard her hands hit the dirt surrounding it.
Time past. It was three weeks and just past the start of October and Naruto was dripping with sweat. He was outside of the village and he was moving his hands insainly quick, "Fire style-" He finished his hand signs, "Fire Ball Juitsu!" He gathered all the energy in his chest. From a distance he heard, "Rasengan!". The command was suddenly shot out by one of his famous Shadow clones. An exact image of his was charging straight toward him at mock speed but Naruto released his fire attack, destroying the clone and a few behind that one. Naruto collapsed on the ground but worked himself up, his face drenched. He looked up at the sky and searched for the sun.
Let's see . . . knowing where that is it should be about . . . two o'clock. He stood up and ran toward the village, his hands covering each arm, Geez, good thing this training gets you warmed up. It's pretty cold for the beginning of October. Aah well, I need to do a few missions to raise some money.
Naruto was just about to the building
where the missions are taken care of. He opened the door when he
suddenly slammed it shut, hearing a voice come out of nowhere:
"NARUTO UZUMAKI! Get your ass up here!"
It was the voice of Tsunade and
Naruto, of all people, that this meant trouble. He thought that he
may as well go. On the way, he stopped at a shop carelessly and
picked up a drink. he opened the can, took a stip and the Hokage's
voice shot out, drawing everyone's attention, "I'm serious! Get
up here now! Your "lover" is here at this minute!"
Naruto jumped and spit his drink all over the shop he was infront of.
He ran at full speed to the red building and opened the door, "I'm
here! I'm here!" he groaned.
"Step in."
Nauto had no choice. He walked in and
there was Sakura, sitting in a chair. She was looking at the ground
and frowning.
"Sit down." Tsunade
instructed. This wasn't a time to joke, "Naruto. We just did a
test on Sakura and-"
"It's true. I'm pregneant."
Sakura finished the sentence. Naruto looked at her
"Concieved September 13th. The
father:" Tsunade took a pause and glared at Naruto, "Naruto
Uzumaki." Naruto felt weak all of a sudden. His fists began to
crul around the chair, "What the hell were you thinking? You two
aren't even married and here you are now! Do you have any idea what
you've just done?!"
"I know but-" Naruto began,
but never got the chance he needed to talk. Tsunade continued her
rant
"Both of you are only nineteen
and only have the money for yourselves at the moment! Naruto, you're
gonna have to make some changes in your life." She yelled
"Hey, hey, hey-" Naruto
tried to keep himself innocent, despite that he secretly felt to
agree with everything
"STOP IT!" A young
vocie shot out, louder than Naruto and Tsunade combined. Sakura was
holding back tears.
"Fine . . ." The old woman
calmed herself down, "I'm sorry for yelling but this is serious.
Naruto, would you excuse us?"
"If you don't mind, I would rather stay." Naruto said calmly. What came next was faster than Naruto's training- a foot. Naruto felt an impact hit his nose and he knew he was going straight for the window. Tsunade saw a hand grab the window. Naruto tried to climb up but she walked over to it, and punched it with her own hand, "Yaa" She heard something hit the ground as she walked away.
"Sakura, follow me, if you
wouldn't mind." And entered another room. Sakura followed as
told. She looked around and Tsunade plopped a book into her hands
"Read this." Tsunade opened
up another book and began to scribble in it with a pencil, "Sakura.
You can skip your missions for the next nine months."
"But- what about money?"
Sakura began
"Naruto should work enough so
you'll have extra." Tsunade said, "Listen, I was right that
you'll have to make changes in your life. For starters- you're gonna
have to give up your money. You'll need it for something to come and
you two may have to consider . . . marriage."
Sakura's eyes widened
So that's it, huh? All my wishes that were to happen at this age- and Naruto- out the window
