I think I'll start putting up a chapter ever second week, sorry about that but I've been pretty busy with school, sigh school is such a drag XD. Anyways please enjoy this filler. ^_^

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, or Naruto shippuden for that matter if I did though I'm pretty sure that the series wouldn't be as cool as they are now, and there would be a few people who I would like to keep alive!

WARNING: I think I spelled Konohamaru wrong a few times, I tried to correct them all so sorry if there is a mis-spell

Chapter 8

Once Iruka was informed that Naruto was up, he made sure to get to the Hospital as soon as possible, but of course before he went there he went to Ichiruka's and got a bowl of Miso Ramen for his 'dare he think it' favourite blonde haired knuckle head. Iruka hurriedly ran to Naruto's assigned room but when he entered it all he saw was an empty messed up bed and a open window where the wind sucked in the curtains, he couldn't help it, his 'natural instincts' kicked in, before he knew it he was scanning the room for any clues as to where she was and as the seconds slowly ticked by Iruka felt worry creep until he was almost over the edge with it.

"Iruka-Sensei whatcha doin" Iruka froze and looked behind him to see a smirking blonde sitting on the window ceil.

"NARUTO, do you know how worried I was, what if you had been kidnapped or even worse murdered, oh the horror, GET INTO THAT BED THIS INSTANCE" Iruka finally took note that Naruto was in fact shivering.

"Iiirruukkkaaaa…" Naruto whined.

"Don't Iruka me, now get into that bed now" As Naruto passed Iruka he could hear the grumbling of complaints escaping her colourful mouth. Naruto jumped onto the bed and sat on it with the blankets roughly spread over her bottom half. When Iruka looked over at Naruto he saw that her arms were crossed and a pout was fixated on her face. Iruka sighed before grabbing the abandon ramen on the small desk nearest the door.

"I brought you Ramen" Iruka spoke trying to ease the konochi's anger, and it worked she immediately brightened.

"Gimmie, gimmie, gimmie" Naruto yelled literally bouncing on the bed , Iruka smirked at the teenagers childish habits. Iruka gave the Ramen over to Naruto and watched her greedily devour the heavenly substance, but when she stopped in the middle of chewing Iruka knew something was wrong.

Naruto swallowed before questioning her ex-sensei "Neh Iruka why is it cold?"

"Because Naruto, you weren't in your bed resting as you should have been" Iruka replied accusingly. Naruto pouted before eating her ramen again, but eating more slowly to try and savour the taste, as she knew it would be awhile until she would be getting another bowl.

"What's been happening since I've been out Iruka-Sensei" Iruka looked at Naruto in surprise, it's been awhile since she called him that, he smiled softly to himself.

"Nothing much, just trying to calm the villagers about Kyuubi's sudden appearance, and trying to keep order, and so on. It's been fairly normal, well as normal as it can be without you" Iruka replied in a cheery voice, Naruto nodded her head thoughtfully.

"Iruka-Sensei, can I ask you a question?" Iruka nodded 'yes' surprise clear on his face.

"Do you think that the villagers will blame me for releasing Kyuubi?" Naruto looked up with fear clouded eyes, Iruka smiled softly and walked over to her, only to ruffle her already messy hair.

"Don't worry about it Gaki, just rest up O.K" Iruka replied in a soft voice, reluctantly Naruto nodded her head 'yes' and gave her empty bowl to Iruka before laying down and pulling the blankets over her shoulders, Naruto closed her eyes and tried her best to fall asleep.

A few minutes passed and when Iruka heard the soft snores he silently crept out of the room with a smile.

"IRUKA-SENSEI!" Iruka turned around and to his surprise saw Konohamaru, Udon and Moegi running towards him, they stopped right in front of him with worried eyes.

"Iruka-Sensei is Naruto alright?" Moegi asked with a worry laced voice. Iruka smiled at his ex-students.

"She's fine so don't worry about it"

"HAH, I knew all along that the boss would be O.K" Konohamaru declared.

"REALLY!" Udon and Moegi said at the same time.

"Your so cool Konohamaru" Moegi complimented with stars and hearts shining in her eyes.

"Yeah really cool" Udon added, Konohamaru stood there chuckling while scratching the back of his head blushing, the whole look reminded Iruka of Naruto.

"Hey Konohamaru, Udon, Moegi do you guys want to get some ramen?" Iruka asked.

"Yea sure Iruka-sensei, what about you guys do you want to go and get some ramen?" Konohamaru asked his team mates, who both nodded energetically.

"ONE BOWL OF PORK RAMEN" Konohamaru yelled as soon as he had entered Ichiruka's.

"Coming right up" the chef announced, Moegi and Udon both got the chicken ramen and Iruka got plain ole Miso.

"So Konohamaru, Udon, Moegi what have you guys been doing?" Iruka asked curiously.

"Nothing much sensei, although we've been going on more C-rank missions now, but were still stuck with D-ranks." Konohamaru replied happily.

"Here's your guys ramen eat up" Teuchi smiled.

"OH YEAH, SMELLS SOOO GOOD" Konohamaru drolled at the sight.

"Sure does" Moegi added,and Udon nodded his head in confirmation. Udon, Moegi and Iruka were all about to start eating when,

"STOP!" the rest of Konohamaru's team and Iruka looked at him curiously.

"Before we eat we must dedicate this meal to the boss" Konohamaru declared feverishly .

"HAI" yelled Udon and Moegi, both equally pumped at the declaration.

"TO OUR BOSS!" all three of them yelled at the same time.

"FOR BEING THERE WHEN WE NEEDED HER!" Udon yelled,

"FOR BEING THE COOLEST SENSEI EVER!" Konohamaru added,

"AND MOST OF ALL FOR BEING THE MOST KICK-ASS KONOUCHI ANYONE HAS EVER SEEN" Moegi shouted

"TO NARUTO" they yelled at the same time pointing there chop-sticks in the air, before digging into there meal. Teuchi and Ayame both chuckled at the genin before continuing there jobs. It was obvious that Naruto had become a huge influence to the trio thought Iruka before eating a little bit of his ramen.

Iruka watched out of the corner of his eye as the three genin's slurped up there ramen, it was strange thought Iruka it seems like just yesterday it was Naruto and his team sitting with him. Iruka smiled for the millionth time that day before eating the rest of his ramen.

Hope yah enjoyed Z chapter, review please!
