Chapter 9
-----------------------------------
Next Week, The day of the Talent Contest"Alright people, get into the auditorium, the talent show lasts all day so when the acts are finished you can go home" said Kakashi
"Yes, Kakashi-Sensei" said the remainder class as they walked out and took their seats in the massive room that held the stage.
Only a few boys and the majority of the girls stayed in class, the others went backstage to get ready for their acts. Naruto was sitting in a corner molding his chakra; Sasuke, Shikamaru and Neji were all waiting and tuning their instruments getting ready for their group act. Rock Lee was running in circles so he could get ready for his Taijutsu display that Gai had been teaching him. Shino and Kiba were talking quietly and Hinata was sitting, staring at Naruto. Tenten and Sakura were getting themselves ready and several of the others were getting ready for their displays, which included some of the senseis.
Tsunade was pacing up and down from nerves about the bet she lost to Anko and Kakashi was getting his dogs to sit and be quiet while he told them what to do. Jiraiya was hoping on giving a chapter or two from his latest book but Kurenai took that away from him and burnt it. Kurenai herself was doing a display with Asuma but they were all thinking about what horrors Naruto had in store for some of them.
"Alright then Ladies and Gentlemen, today is the Konoha High Talent Contest and we have some very interesting acts coming up," said Shizune from the stage "First up is Shino Aburame and he will be making monuments out of bugs"
Shino walked out to a deathly quiet with his hands out, he waited for a few seconds for something to happen but nothing did. A few sniggers were heard from the audience until a sudden wave of insects came out and made various monuments like the Hokage Mountain, The Great Naruto Bridge and the nest that all Aburame clan members offered their child to in exchange for their service.
The crowd let out a few oohs and aww's as Shino finished the routine, but soon started applauding as he left to go backstage.
The next few were fairly good but nothing that captured everyone's interest, Kiba and Akamaru had a duet with 'How Much Is That Doggy In The Window?" Rock Lee scared everyone by taking a sip of sake and going Drunken Fist Style on several sheets of hardened metal, Tenten and Sakura had a tag team act where Tenten shot weapons of various descriptions to make pictures in the walls while Sakura used her strength to force all the weapons out of the wall so Tenten could rearrange them with the string on her fingers.
"And next up is Naruto Uzumaki," said Shizune retreating to her safe spot on the wall
"Thanks Shizune-Sensei, I will be showing all you people what the faculty get up to AFTER-SCHOOL!" said Naruto with a grin that made all the sensei's suddenly get very nervous.
"This is going to be bad," said Tsunade from backstage
"Tell me about it" said Asuma remembering the look that Naruto gave him a week or so ago.
"KAGE BUNSHIN JUTSU!" yelled Naruto as he made several clones. He then set up a small genjutsu on the stage so it seemed like a bedroom scene with various things outside like trees and a road behind it.
"HENGE! (Transform)" said Naruto as a lot of smoke engulfed the stage so no-one in the audience could see. When the smoke cleared, the entire audience was laughing their heads off at the scene.
The clones had transformed into the staff and were now stuck in various predicaments across the stage. There was Kurenai and Asuma lying in the bed with Asuma smoking a cigarette, Kakashi was outside the window with a camcorder and on a leash that was being held by Anko. Jiraiya was sitting under a floorboard with another video camera and a notebook, but the piece de la resistance was Tsunade holding her hands over her eyes sitting in the corner.
"I wish you'd stop smoking that fag even while we were doing it" said the Kurenai
"Do you want another riding? Shut up"
"I'll be good,"
"He he this is pure gold" said the Kakashi
"Quiet or you'll get no fun tonight" said the Anko
"What was that?" said the Kurenai looking at the window but only seeing a slight red dot coming from outside.
"Probably Kakashi, he spies on me a lot to copy all my moves. Where to do you think he got the Hairy Bendy Twisty Butterfly Trick?" said the Asuma
"Ooh, blackmail material" came the voice from under the floorboards writing something down in a book
"Can I open my eyes yet?" asked the Tsunade
"NOT YET!" yelled the Asuma
Suddenly the whole thing poofed away as all the mentioned members of staff charged the stage and started chasing after Naruto who was on the ceiling having a game of Rock Paper Scissors with Shizune.
"See you later people," said Naruto as he disappeared
"How the hell, we're Jounin and a STUDENT got away from us," said Asuma disbelievingly
"I taught him well, he always has a plan even if it is as crazy or perverted as mine," said Jiraiya
"Huh?" said Kurenai
"I have a feeling you'll see at graduation," said Jiraiya
"Have you met his new Chakra Manipulation sensei?" asked Kakashi "He's an old friend of mine called Yamato, he has uncanny Chakra Manipulation abilities so he should be able to give Naruto good tutelage"
"I have, I helped train him when he was younger." Said Jiraiya
"So it seems you have a penchant for training interesting people, Naruto, Arashi, Yamato, Kakashi by proxy, and a few other team members," said Tsunade
"Yes yes yes, but it appears that we have to go back and do our routines now that the students are out of the way" said Kurenai
"Isn't there a group act left?" asked Kakashi
"Yes, but if Naruto has run away then they can't perform," said Kurenai
"Who ran away?" came a voice from below them
"Naruto!" came a shocked reply
"Yeah, I'm not running away after I practised for ages to get this song right so I'm going to play it. I only moved off the ceiling so I wouldn't lose my concentration and fall down"
The sensei's jumped down and each one slapped Naruto upside the head as they walked past before Shikamaru, Neji and Sasuke walked out with their instruments and Naruto's guitar.
Naruto picked up his guitar and plugged it into the amp that had been supplied. He waited until his band mates were ready and then started off on a riff that made everyone start cheering.
"I'd like to dedicate this to a special girl who has always been there for me whatever trouble I was in." said Naruto
'8 o'clock, Monday night and I'm
waitin'
To finally talk to a girl a little cooler than me.
Her
name is Hina, she's a rocker with a nose ring,
She wears a two
way, but I'm not quite sure what that means.
And when she
walks,
All the wind blows and the angels sing.
She doesn't
notice me!
Cause she is watchin' wrestling
Creamin' over
tough guys - Sasuke
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in her
eyes - Sasuke
It's like a bad movie
She is lookin' through
me
If you were me, then you'd be
Screamin' "Someone
shoot me!"
As I fail miserably,
Tryin' to get the girl
all the bad guys want.
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
She likes the Godsmack and I like Agent Orange
Her cd
changer's full of singers that are mad at their dad
She says
she'd like to score some reefer and a forty
She'll never know
that I'm the best that she'll never have
And when she walks,
All the wind blows and the angels sing.
She'll never notice
me!
Cause she is watchin' wrestling
Creamin' over tough
guys - Sasuke
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in her eyes -
Sasuke
She likes 'em with a mustache
Racetrack season pass
- Sasuke
Drivin' in a Trans-Am
Does a mullet make a man? -
Sasuke
It's like a bad movie
She is lookin' through me
If
you were me, then you'd be
Screamin' "Someone shoot me!"
As I fail miserably,
Tryin' to get the girl all the bad guys
want.
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
She's the girl
all the bad guys want!
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
There she goes again
With fishnets on, and dreadlocks in
her hair
She broke my heart, I wanna be sedated
All I wanted
was to see her naked!
Now I am watchin' wrestling
Tryin'
to be a tough guy
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in my
eyes
I can't grow a mustache
And I ain't got no season pass
All I got's a moped...moped...moped...
It's like a bad
movie
She is lookin' through me
If you were me, then you'd be
Screamin' "Someone shoot me!"
As I fail miserably,
Tryin' to get the girl all the bad guys want.
She's the
girl all the bad guys want!
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
She's the girl all the
bad guys want!
(There she goes again)
She's the girl all the
bad guys want!
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
(There
she goes again)
She's the girl all the bad guys want!
She's
the girl all the bad guys want!'
The crowd let out an encore as Naruto looked at the others and got a nod.
"OK then, we'll do another!" yelled Naruto as he started doing a few riffs on the guitar
'Let me know that I've done wrong
When I've known this all along
I go around a time or two
Just to waste my time with you
Tell me all that you've thrown away
Find out games you don't wanna play
You are the only one that needs to know
I'll keep you my dirty little secret
(Dirty little secret)
Don't tell anyone or you'll be just another regret
(Just another regret, hope that you can keep it)
My dirty little secret
Who has to know
When we live such fragile lives
It's the best way we survive
I go around a time or two
Just to waste my time with you
Tell me all that you've thrown away
Find out games you don't wanna play
You are the only one that needs to know
I'll keep you my dirty little secret
(Dirty little secret)
Don't tell anyone or you'll be just another regret
(Just another regret, hope that you can keep it)
My dirty little secret
Who has to know
The way she feels inside (inside)
Those thoughts I can't deny (deny)
These sleeping dogs won't lie (won't lie)
And all I've tried to hide
It's eating me apart
Trace this line back
I'll keep you my dirty little secret
(Dirty little secret)
Don't tell anyone or you'll be just another regret
(Just another regret)
I'll keep you my dirty little secret
(Dirty little secret)
Don't tell anyone or you'll be just another regret
(Just another regret, hope that you can keep it)
My dirty little secret
Dirty little secret
Dirty little secret
Who has to know
Who has to know'
"Ok sorry people but I know you want to see the sensei's humiliate themselves so we will be taking our leave now" said Naruto as he and the others unplugged their instruments and walked backstage to thunderous applause.
"Guys, you were great" said Kiba as he walked over to them
"YOU ARE IN THE SPRINGTIME OF YOUTH, LET YOUR YOUTHFUL POWER EXPLODE!" "Shut it Lee" said Tenten as she hit him over the head with the blunt end of a kunai."OW!"
"Um…. Naruto-Kun, who was the girl you dedicated the first one too?" asked Hinata
"Who else? You" said Naruto giving Hinata a kiss on the cheek as she walked out the door to go home for the day.
"Hey wait up Naruto-Kun" called Hinata as she ran out into the corridor after him.
"Yes Hinata?" asked Naruto
"Umm…would you go out with me?"
"Hinata….Of course I will" said Naruto with a grin that turned Hinata's legs to jelly
The two walked out of the school and towards home to get ready for training.
