Chapter 11: School Daze!

Karakura Town-6:00 AM

"YAAAAAAAAH!"

Crash!

"Damn, what a landing!" Naruto complained.

Naruto looked up from where they fell.

"How far did we fell?"

Shikamaru looked up as well, "Can't be from the sky. We would be dead already."

Naruto scoffed. He looked around to see his friends of Team 10 and 8 and Sakura were just getting up and look at their surroundings.

"Any idea where we are?" Hinata asked nervously.

Kiba looked at the buildings all around them. Could this be Karakura Town?

"I think...Could this be Karakura Town?" Kiba asked.

"It would have to be, since Bowser told us where we were heading," Ino said.

The ninja looked at each other. Now they were here, what are they going to do now?

"What are we going to do now? Where are we going to stay?" Sakura asked.

Naruto scratched his chin. Everyone else groaned.

"First, let's get Naruto enroll in school," Shikamaru said.

Angrily, Naruto protested, "No way, no way! I'm not going to school!!"

"You have to, Naruto!" Sakura said, "I know you hate school, but we need someone to find that Substitute Soul Reaper!"

"Why don't you find him?" Naruto said to Sakura.

"We are going to find someone who can help us out, Naruto."

Naruto pouted, "Still not going to do it."

Karakura High School- Later

After being pummeled by Sakura, Naruto finally gave in and decided to go to school. He hated the idea. He was a clown at the Ninja Academy, of course. However, this was very different from the Academy. He should at least try to fit in. On the other hand, be a class clown for that matter.

Ah, well. He will try being good at both: Fit in and be a class clown.

After getting directions to his classroom, he proceeded to head towards his destination. Naruto frowned, even though it was not a Ninja Academy like his back home. Instead, all did do here was talk and write. They also were given written tests on everything instead of practical tests.

Naruto was starting to get a headache and it was not from the head butt he received from Sakura. Maybe coming here was not a great idea after all. Unfortunately, he had to do this, if he backed out...well, we'll leave it at that.

"You must be the new student."

Naruto turned around, saw a woman wearing glasses, and had brown hair.

"Yes, ma'am, I'm Naruto Uzumaki," he greeted, faking his nervous act.

"Naruto, huh?" The teacher said, "Let's hope you aren't one of those 'troublemakers inside."

"Troublemakers?"

Naruto peeked inside and looked around. A few people got his attention. As the teacher was done with roll call and introducing Naruto to the entire class (by writing his name upside down on the black board to get a few laughs), Naruto took the time to look around at those that got his attention. The first was, to Naruto's surprise, the biggest student that Naruto had ever seen. He towered over all of the others, and the pencil he was using to take notes looked like a twig in his hands.

'Remind me not to get him mad!' Naruto said to himself.

The next source equaled the large boy in power, but she was half his size. She had long, orange-brown hair, which was one of her most obvious features. The second was her generously proportioned chest.

'She is...so...HOT! I want her in bed with me!' Naruto slapped himself back into reality, 'Anyway, she seems...ditzy somehow. Looks like she already has a girlfriend.' Naruto grinned, 'Or NOT!'

The following source was sitting directly next to the nicely proportioned girl, gazing out the window. She had spiky black hair, and from what Naruto could see a couple of calluses on her knuckles.

'Hmm...She reminds me of Bushy Brow (Naruto's nickname for Rock Lee.)' Naruto grinned again, 'What's her three measurements? Did I just say that?' Again, Naruto slapped himself mentally again for those dirty thoughts, 'I wonder who would win in a fight between her and Bushy Brow? Can she be a Taijutsu Expert as well?'

Naruto shifted his attention towards another boy, this one with black hair and glasses. As Naruto scanned his energy, the boy glanced over his shoulder at Naruto, sensing something going on. However, Naruto shifted his attention away from him, appearing to be nothing more than an ordinary high school student.

'Why is Four-Eyes looking at me like that?' Naruto said to himself.

Naruto glanced around to see two people. One was a black-haired girl with purple colored eyes. She was shorter than Naruto, but even shorter than the boy next to her was. Naruto looked at the boy next to the girl. This boy had orange hair, with a scowl on his face.

'Hmm...The raven-haired girl must be Rukia Kuchiki Bowser told me about. But, the boy next to her...is he...'

His thoughts were interrupted by a scream of "LUNCH!" as the orange-haired girl ran out of the classroom, dragging her spiky haired friend with her. Naruto smiled and decided to follow suit.

Naruto found out that lunchtime was amusing. One prime example was this red-hair girl trying to hug the orange haired girl. The girl was repelled by a kick by the spiky black haired girl.

Naruto was amazed. Who would have thought that lunchtime was so much fun?

"Hey, new guy! You want to have lunch with us?" the brown hair kid from his class asked.

"Sure, uh...I'm sorry, I don't think I got your name?" Naruto replied.

"I'm Keigo Asano," the boy said with a cocky grin, "Karakura High's Number One Ladies' Man!"

'More like Karakura High's Number One Goofball,' Naruto thought.

"This here is Mizuiro," Keigo said, pointing to the short black haired kid.

"Hi, nice to meet you," Mizuiro greeted.

Keigo then pointed to the big guy, "And the big guy is Chad."

The giant nodded.

"Finally, the guy with the permanent scowl is Ichigo Kurosaki."

"Ichigo?" Naruto said in confusion, "Isn't that a girl's name?"

SCREECH! Naruto's comment got Ichigo's attention.

"What did you say, you bastard?!" an enraged Ichigo shouted, "It is not a girl's name!"

"Easy, Ichigo, I'm sure he didn't mean it," Mizuiro said, trying to calm him down.

"It's true, Ichigo means strawberry," Naruto said, ignoring Mizuiro, "What kind of guy has the name strawberry, Strawberry?"

"No, you're wrong! My name means 'he who protects,' not strawberry!" Ichigo shouted back, "Besides, your name means Maelstrom!"

"Maelstrom is much better name than being named Strawberry, right?" Naruto replied.

Ichigo has had enough of Naruto's insults, "All right, that's it! You and me, punk! Outside! NOW!"

Naruto laughed, "You bit off more than you chew, Strawberry. I'll make sure you regret it!"

"Same here, Maelstrom! I'll kick your ass!"

Naruto smirked as he followed Ichigo up to the school's rooftop, with his friends tagging behind them.

Karakura High School Rooftop- Five minutes Later

Naruto looked around at the crow before him. He never thought Ichigo was this popular.

"Ichigo, can't we enjoy our lunch in peace?" Mizuiro pleaded.

"Relax, Mizuiro," Ichigo said, "this won't take long."

"Really, Strawberry?" Naruto said placing his hands in his orange and black jacket, "I'll make you submit in three minutes!"

Ichigo swung at him, Naruto knocked the fist away. Naruto countered by punching Ichigo in the chest. He stumbled back a bit; he quickly recovered and counterattacked by delivering a roundhouse kick to Naruto's head, sending him to the ground, seemingly knocking out the boy.

"See, Mizuiro, I told you that it wouldn't take long to pummel his ass!" Ichigo said.

Suddenly, Naruto's leg wrapped around Ichigo's right ankle, "Is that right, Strawberry? Then I take back what I said about making you submit in three minutes!"

Naruto twisted his legs, sending Ichigo crashing to the ground. Naruto jumped back onto his feet.

"I'll make you submit in TWO minutes!" Naruto yelled.

Ichigo jumped back to his feet. To his surprise, Naruto started to remove his jacket. What was Naruto trying to pull here?

"Sorry, but I don't want this to get dirty," Naruto said, holding his jacket, "Keigo, catch!"

Said boy and went to catch it, but it suddenly fell like a rock...

...and landed with a loud crash.

Ichigo's eyes widen in shock as he saw the jacket made that dent on the roof. Even Keigo was shaking in his boots.

'What the hell? How did he do that?' Ichigo thought.

Naruto smiled as he checked his arms. He made sure they were fine, showing no signs of anything out of aliment.

"That's much better," Naruto said, "Now I can fight without any problems."

Ichigo growled and charged at Naruto, but at the last second, Ichigo was sent flying in the air and crashed onto the school's roof. Ichigo was about to get up, but a fist was aimed at him. Ichigo moved his eyes to the right to see Naruto smiling at him, his fist aimed at him.

"Do you give up or do you want to end this the hard way?" Naruto asked, with his goofy grin still on his face.

Ichigo growled again.

"It would be wise to submit peacefully, I did make you submit in the time limit after all."

"That was amazing, Naruto," Keigo said, "but, what was with that heavy jacket?"

Naruto smiled, "It's a secret training program of mine. It would be pretty complicated to explain."

Keigo looked at him, confused.

"I'll be surprised if Tatsuki had gotten word about you beating Ichigo one on one," Mizuiro replied casually.

"Tatsuki? Who is that?" Naruto asked.

"She's a student in our class that looks more like a boy than a girl," Keigo said.

"You mean a tomboy?" Naruto said.

"That's right!"

"What about the orange haired girl sitting near her?" Naruto asked.

"The heavenly goddess Orihime Inoue."

'Heavenly Goddess?' Naruto thought to himself.

"Hey, Ichigo!" a voice shouted, "Who won?"

Everyone, except Ichigo, turned to the stairs. It was Tatsuki, that tomboy Keigo was talking about.

"Hey, Ichigo! I'm talking to you! Who won?"

Ichigo did not even answer her.

"He's not answering you because..." Naruto said, scratching the back of his head, "I beat him and he didn't take it too well. Losing the new guy and all."

Tatsuki's eyes widened in surprise, "You actually beat Ichigo?"

Naruto shrugged, "Yeah. The name's Naruto Uzumaki by the way."

Her eyes started to burn with a fiery passion, "Finally, someone besides Ichigo that can be a worthy opponent."

Naruto's eyes widened in surprise. He did not like where this was headed.

"What?"

"My name's Tatsuki Arisawa!" Tatsuki said, pointing at Naruto, "You, Naruto Uzumaki! I challenge you to a fight! Right here, right now!"
