Naruto in Konoha
Chapter 4
Attack of Fuzzybrows and Shining Teeth
Okay. It's official. Naruto will never look at another pair of spandex the same way again.
'It's also official that I'm scarred for life now…and possibly blind…' Naruto mentally added. So what had happened? It all started when Naruto and Neji entered the large gym. The next thing the blonde knew, there was some guy in green spandex (twitch, twitch) yelling something about 'eternal rival of youth' or something along those lines. The green spandex wearing guy with a bowl cut and thick fuzzy eyebrows (shiver) then noticed Naruto's presence and introduced himself as Rock Lee, complete with dentists' dream teeth smile (with blinding light and everything). The blonde weakly introduced himself while trying to get his vision back before they were all sent by their teacher (which looked like a giant green blob due to Naruto's partial blindness) to the locker room to change.
Once inside, Naruto changed as fast as he could into the PE uniform so he could be out of the locker room as soon as possible. It smelled like sweat and public bathrooms in there. It had nothing to do with the other guys changing in there. Nothing! … Believe it!
"Naruto!" Lee called and put an arm around the blonde's shoulders, "I can see that the power of youth is so strong in you that you are all pumped up to start class taught by the best teacher of time, the master of all that is youthful!"
"Um… Sure," Naruto said, uncertain how he should react. The male students started coming out of the men's lockers room and the females came out of the women's locker room shortly after.
The teacher, Gai being his name, was a man in green spandex with a bowl cut and thick eyebrows, who had an eerily similar blinding smile, that Lee STRONGLY admires.
'Now I know where he gets it from," Naruto thought, trying to regain his vision back for the second time that day, 'Maybe being the son of the King of Darkness wasn't such a good idea'
"We'll start out with 100 pushups then we'll do 100 laps around the school!" Gai announced.
'Wait, what?'
"If we can't do that, we'll do 1,000 jumping jacks and if can't do even that, we'll do 200 jump ropes!" Gai continued.
'What the #!*% is this? Boot camp? Juvie or something?'
"Not to complain or anything but 100 laps around the school is little ridiculous, especially since the school is so freakin huge!" Naruto spoke.
"But Naruto," Lee said, a determined look on his face, "This sort of training is necessary for us to increase our power of youth to its fullest potential!"
The blonde sighed in defeat as it seemed the teen could go on and on about the power of youth. The rest of the class was spent doing exercises (or as much of it as they can) and playing soccer towards the end until the bell rang. As everyone was either going home or going into the locker rooms to change/ shower, Naruto was taking his sweet time putting all the equipment away.
"Naruto!" Lee excitedly called, causing the small blonde to look over his shoulders.
"Yeah?" Naruto asked. From what the blonde gathered during class, Rock Lee was a cheerful, friendly, bundle of energy and green spandex… Yes, Naruto now believes he and Gai-sensei are made of green spandexes after they whipped out a pair from who knows where when the blonde asked why they wore those things (said something about looking youthful then asked if he wanted to wear them, too… but was saved/ dragged away by Neji and some girl named Tenten). Anyways, Naruto also found out that he's one of the best athletes in the entire school but apparently not as good as Gai-sensei.
"Why don't you get going and let me finish up here," the fuzzy eyebrow boy said, giving his good guy pose and blinding smile.
"S-Sure," Naruto uttered, letting Lee take the ball cart as he once again tried to regain his lost vision. When he finally did regain his vision, Lee had disappeared into the gym equipment closet so he decided to hit the showers since the boy did not feel like walking home smelling awful.
Naruto showered quickly. Though there was no reason to rush, he felt the need to be quick. The blonde dried himself, quickly shoved his clothes on, and left. Never did he notice the person watching him.
"Itachi," Sasuke uncaringly called as the older Uchiha entered the car, "Otousan called"
"Hn" And?
The younger of the two signaled the driver to go before speaking again.
"He wanted you to 'check up' on something. He says you should know what you're checking up on"
"Hn" Okay
"Seems like every time Otousan asks someone to 'check up' on something, people die"
"Hn" Why do you care?
"It's someone at the school, someone I know. Why else would you start working at the school as part of the security?"
"Maybe you shouldn't make new friends anytime soon"
"It's Uzumaki, isn't it?"
"Hn"
For once, Sasuke didn't know if that was a yes or a no. Then again, why does he care?
Random Comments from the Authoress That People Might Not Read Anyways:
Is it me or does writing the beginning seem so easy?
Anyways, i really don't feel like putting much here... BTW, Kyuubi will make his appearance soon MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! after 4 or so chapters!
Why hasn't Kyuubi appeaered even after 4 chapters?
Who is watching Naruto? Geez, stalker much?
Will Naruto eventually be permanently blind?
Why people die when "something" is being "checked up" on?
Is Itachi "checking up" on Naruto?
AND THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION OF ALL
Are Gai and Lee really made of green spandex and what toothpaste do they use to get that perfectly blinding white smile? I'd like to get my hands on some of their toothpaste!
