Naruto growled as loud knocking on his door woke him up. Naruto lifted his head up and mumbled/yelled "Go away!" Naruto than heard "Come on man, you of all people should know how Tsunade gets pissed when she has to wait." Naruto remembered Tsunade asked/ordered him to meet her in the morning. In a moment Naruto was up and throwing on clothes. "GIve me a minute!" Naruto yelled while he tripped trying to put on his shoes.
After a quick wardrobe change and splashing cold water on his face, Naruto was ready. He walked to the door and opened it seeing Choji's smiling face. Choji than said "Why are you in such a rush?" Naruto looked at him confused and said "To meet Tsu-" At that moment Naruto looked at a clock and noticed it's eight a.m. He wasn't supposed to meet Tsunade for five hours. Naruto than thought 'She may not even be conscious by than'.
Naruto glared at Choji and slammed the door in his face. Chojis' laughing could probaly be heard for miles and that wasn't really helping Narutos' mood. A minute later Choji had barely calmed himself down and knocked again. Naruto shook his head and said "No, I'm not gonna do it." Naruto thn heard Choji say "Hey!" Naruto shook his head again. Choji again yelled "Hey" Naruto squuezed his hands until he poped his fingers. "YooHoo!" Naruto than opened the door and screamed "Whaaaaat!"
Choji smiled and said "Wanna get breakfest?" It took everything in Narutos power not to sock him there. 'Just breathe, count to ten or something' Naruto thought. Naruto waved a hand through his hair and said "Sure, maybe I can poison your food." Naruto started walking while Choji laughed and said "Thats a lot of hostility, what did I do?"
After Naruto chased Choji around the house for a few minutes he noticed his stomach growling. Naruto growled, caught Choji, and said "Get me something to eat and I'll spare you." Choji gulped and nodded. They left Tsunades' compound and walked east toward the shipping dock.
Naruto looked at all the construction and whistled. "How have they already made restraunts when theres barely anyone to eat?" Choji shrugged and said "Construction workers gotta eat, and theres us too. Besides, this restraunt was actually made by us." Naruto nodded and said "Oh yeah, Shikamru told me we actually run buisnesses." Choji scratched his head and said "Sure, thats one way of putting it." Naruto was confused by Chojis answer, but didn't inquire about it.
After they walked a few blocks a building came into view. It only had one floor and had red walls. At the front there was a big lit up sign that said "Home Made Kazoku" Choji opened the door and Naruto followed him inside. The inside seemed like an ordinary diner. There are a couple booths by the glass windows (which were under the sign) and a bar. Naruto and Choji sat at the bar stools and Naruto looked at the diners. Choji was right, there were mainly construction workers at the booths sipping on coffee. Naruto also noticed a couple people he saw around the compound. Shikamaru was sitting at the booth at the end. He was smoking a ciggarette and staring intently out of the window.
Naruto was about to point him out to Choji, but was interuppted by a waitress. She was a little shorter than Naruto and had a petite frame. She had dark brown hair tied up into two buns and she seemed to be of Ascian decsent. She walked over and said "Hey Choji what brings you in." Choji smiled and said "Nothing much Tenten, just getting something to eat with the new guy."
Tenten turned to me, smiled, and said "So you're Naruto right." Naruto nodded and smiled. They introduced themselves to eachother and Tenten turned back to Choji. "SO why are you really here?" She asked. Choji smiled and said "Alright, you caught me. I'm here to see how the new batch is coming." Tenten smiled and said to herself "I thought you would come by sooner or later." Tenten looked back up at us and said "Well, come look for yourself."
Naruto had no idea what they were talking about, but follwed them into the kitchen anyway. When they first entered Naruto wasn't suprised at all. It looked like a regular kitchen with two guys working. Naruto saw Choji nodding and noticed what the guys were actually doing. They were grinding rocks into a white substance and putting it into tiny packages. At that moment it all clicked.
Cocaine. They're making cocaine. Naruto wasn't sure why he was so suprised. 'I expected that I'd get involved with this sooner or later, but its so suprising to see it actually happening'. Choji saw his shocked expression and chuckled. "Tenten, why don't you explain how this operation works." Choji asked. Tenten smiled and said "Sure. Well first we import the rocks from South America or the Middle East. We pick up the shipments and distribute them accordingly. We bring them here and grind them into the powder state. You know why a kitchen is the perfect place for cover."
Naruto shook his head and Tenten answered "If the cops or a rival gang try to find it all we have to do is put it into a pot of boiling water. Also, to a regular person it looks like a bag of salt. Anyways, once its ready we give some to dealers and ship the rest of it to downtown." Naruto than asked "What happens there?" Tenten answered "We have places there that can make it into crack you smoke." Naruto nodded and took it all in.
Choji smiled and asked Tenten "Any trouble getting it." Tenten than said "Yes actually, some guys pretending to be us got some of it from the original shipment." Choji looked at her and said "Seriously?" Tenten nodded and said "We also heard that there part of the gang you had trouble with." Naruto looked at her and said "The Snakes." Tenten snapped her fingers and said "Thats it." At that moment a short guy came in and whispered something into Tentens ear.
She scowled and he left. She turned to them and said "Can you do me a favor?" Naruto looked at her and said "What kind of favor?" She sighed and said "The guys that stole it are trying to sell it a few blocks away. I'd send my own guys, but I need to get this batch ready or Tsunade will have my head." Choji scratched his head and lokked at Naruto "We're not doing anything." Naruto sighed and responded "So, I guess were eating later."
DariusQ here. Sorry about the long wait, I've been getting a lot of ideas lately and decided to continue this story. Oh, and whoever knows what Home Made Kanzoku is gets praise in the next chapter.
