Filler Chapter:

A Naruto CHRISTMAS CAROL!!!

In the spirit of Christmas I will write this rhyme,

For now is probably the most special of times:

It was snowing, so cold are these winter months,

In fact most people would have the right hunch

That no one would be out, walking around

But there was one kid wearing a frown.

He had no parents, nor had he known them

For this reason most of all was Christmas an omen

For him to see all the families with cheer,

He would pass with his head down, flashing a leer.

No one would guess it,

He was smiling round the year

At this time, though

When Christmas was near,

He felt all grumpy,

All full of spite

He felt so dark, cold with no light.

As he walked, he saw a shadow loom near

As it got closer, he asked "Who's here?"

A gray jacket, lined with snow,

Appeared on the girl who he didn't know

As well as some other Kids,

Though, they were friends

That's all that mattered to him.

"Na-Naruto?"

She asked with a stutter

'This butterflies in my stomach, why do they so flutter?"

They both asked themselves on this cold Christmas eve

Though Naruto couldn't answer as he was cut of by a sneeze.

"You're cold" he said noticing her shiver.

He took of his jacket, fighting the quiver

"As far as cloth goes, it's not the best, but it will keep you warm"

He stopped her protest

By holding his hand up in the air

Wanting, his coat, with Hinata, to share.

"Th-thank you" she said no louder then a mutter

'Man, you know, she's cute with the stutter'

"a-anyway what are you d-doing here all alone"

"With Christmas tomorrow, I'd love to know"

"Aw, Christmas, who cares?

Its just some time when over priced fairs (Santa's enchanted forest, I'm looking at you)

And some stores can profit off suckers galore

Christmas, bah-humbug! I can't take it no more"

"Naruto-kun! How could you say such a thing?

Christmas is a time for love and gift-giving

Is just something extra to make you feel cheer

Where is your Christmas? What do you fear?

He slowly looked down, a small smile on his lips

Not a single stutter, false word, or repeat,

For Hinata, that's one of the greatest of feats

Opposed to hatred, she feels bliss

For this holiday, in the December time,

Man, its getting REALLY hard to make this crap rhyme!

"Oh no!" She said, as she looked at her watch

She was so occupied with him, she went and botched

Up the plans with her father the she had made pre

But she wont forget Naruto's lack of Christmas glee

She stopped in her tracks, and realized that,

The man in her house treats her like some gnat

How he'll wave his hand and shoo her away

She'll show her father this Christmas day!

So she followed him back

To his apartment they trudged

Up the stairs and to the door,

'Naruto-kun lives here? But I was sure

He lived somewhere rich with love galore,

Why does he live here? He deserves more

Why is he happy all 3-64?'

As he looked through his pack

He fumbled for his key

Opened the door just a crack

Then walked in, put his key back

On A small cupboard next to the door

His one-room apartment waiting in store

Hinata creped back, but she would not go,

'Round back to the window is where she sneaked, hunched low

Then opened the window ever so slightly

And looked at the home of the nightly

Sleeping boy and his fine abode

And saw, for the first time, his heavy load.

"No parents, No presents, No one really cares

Nobody knows you like me and that scares

Me to no end, but do not have fright

I will not stop 'till you small house is bright

With Christmas cheer,

Then maybe, just maybe you'll be happy all year."

She closed the window and leapt of the ledge

Reaching in her coat pocket she fetched

A long slender phone which she used to phone

Naruto's friends and her dreaded home.

"It's the eve of Christmas and tomorrows the day,

I wont punish you in anyway

At least until when Christmas is over,

A month of chores, our new lawnmower"

"Who is it? Come out? Its 20 past nine

Oh Hinata? It's you? Oh, yes I'm fine.

Narutos alone? On this eve of nights?

Dang right, we must help him, lets solve his plight!"

"What is it?" Sasuke asked, dropping his weapon

Well if you must know, I'm training, you should be too

The dobe? Fine. Its ok with me.

I owe him for, pranks. In fact, 683!"

Then it hit her, like a ton of bricks

She needed things like a tree, and cake mix

If she was planning to decorate that house of his

So she ran to the store who's name was Emporium Karin (Pronounced "Kareen" Reference to the video game) THIS LINE IS NOT PART OF THE RHYME!!!!

To buy all needed for Naruto's surprise party.

With her supplies, she met with his friends

Sasuke and Sakura stood there in the cold

Holding hands, it made Sakura bold

She kissed him on the cheek and made him turn red

'I wonder' girls thought 'he didn't have dread'

So they got the stuff, sneaked into his house,

Made less noise then the actual mouse

That was there and they each split up, and did their jobs,

Sakura hung lights, Sasuke put up the tree,

And Hinata wrapped presents from the three.

As the night grew on, came closer to dawn

They thought Christmas would be long gone

Way before they finished their assigned things

But were eager to see the reaction they'd bring

To Naruto, when he woke from his sleep

Really, their friendship truly ran deep.

As Naruto woke, his eyes were glassed

As dreams of Ramen were quickly dashed

Away from his mind when a light was turned on,

And as he smiled, they knew they weren't wrong.

Naruto thanked each one many times

And jumped all around his apartment in surprise,

When he saw little Hinata, standing by herself

When he walked over to cheer her up as best he could

"Why are you sad today, Hinata

You threw me a party, you really atta

Come join in the fun, at least tell me what's wrong"

As Sakura banged the ceremonial gong

"Well I saw you l-last night, you were all alone

No p-parents to raise you, not e-even a phone

You live by your self, doesn't it get l-lonely?

Your home just plain doesn't seem h-homey

He hugged her and said "thanks for the thought,

But really I'd hoped that you would not

Go there Especially now. Besides, who needs Parents

When I have friends like you to show me what Christmas meant

"Hey guys" Sasuke said "look up, check it out"

"Your both under mistletoe, time to make-out"

Naruto looked up, it was true

It was there, as much as a cow "moos"

"d-do we kiss" Said a Hinata, beet red

Suddenly she felt she needed her bed.

As he brought his face closer and gave her a peck

She moaned and fainted right there in on his deck,

So he picked her up and put her on his bed

She was so embarrassed, she was still red.

Heck, he was too

So Sakura cheered, I did too

YAAAAAAAAY!!!!!

"Thanks for the party everyone,

It been great, lots of fun

My first Christmas has been bright

So Merry Christmas and to all a good-

record scratches

"Hey! Were not through! You forgot those"

Sasuke said pointing to presents, hiding under Naruto's nose

"Oh yeah," said Naruto and rushed to the tree,

Tearing open his presents three

From Sakura he got ramen that's no surprise

From Sasuke he got weights to make his strength rise

From Hinata he got a small locket with

A picture of his friends at the Party he's in

"Oh Hinata!" He said with a mischievous grin

"If you were awake, I'd kiss you again!"

This brought a laugh to everyone's lips

As Hinata rose with a look of pure bliss

Only to be caught in another kiss

So it went on that day, above all others

The laughter of kids, the talking of elders

Now if you don't mind, I've been at this for hours

My Christmas will be great, I hope yours is good as ours

But now Im going to bed, to catch some more "z's"

Guess what time it is! The clock reads 5:03
