Akk, sorry. I haven't updated in a while. Don't hurt meeee.
Anyway, I don't own Naruto.
"Well, we're here," said Inari as he pointed to his house.
Nanashi took a close look at the house. It seemed to be in better condition then the other houses, which wasn't much. Most houses had roofs coming off, most with no roofs.
"Okasan, Ohayo!" shouted Inari as he stepped inside. "I brought a friend."
Tsunami stepped outside of the kitchen. "And who is this?" she asked.
"His name is Nanashi. He doesn't have a place to stay, so I was wondering if we could take him in?" asked Inari with his best puppy dog eyes.
Tsunami glanced at him wearily. The boy, he had something about him that she couldn't quiet place. He looked innocent enough, demo, something radiated cold killer. She shuddered, but discarded the feeling. The kid couldn't be that bad could he?
She nodded warmly and said yes. Inari proclaimed loudly in joy, he couldn't wait to show his grandfather his new friend.
Nanashi shook his head, surprised at his reaction. He couldn't be that nice, could he? Nanashi shook the thought away, no. He was ruthless, no one could change that.
When Tazuna got home, boy was he in for a surprise.
As he stepped through the door, He noticed a bag he never noticed before, including the fact it had a ninja headband inside. When he got inside the dining room he saw dinner on the table. He looked around the table and saw Tsunami, Inari, and… who?
The boy turned to him and with a strait face said, "Yo."
Tazuna blinked in surprise. 'Not another one! Inari has got to stop bringing homeless people to our house' He glanced at Tsunami who refused to look him in the eye. He hung up his jacket and hat, all the while never taking his eyes off the boy.
"Well, is anyone going to tell me who this boy is!" Tazuna snapped angrily. He was having a bad day, with this whole bridge problem. He had no choice but to enlist help.
"His name is Nanashi grandpa! He saved me from some bullies, so I invited him home. And, guess what, he's a ninja!" Inari proclaimed.
"Ehh, a ninja you say," said Tazuna, surprised. "Not many ninja's come by this way." He helped him self to the meat and rice. Times were harsh, so there wasn't much now a days. All because of that damn Gatoh. If the bridge doesn't go up, were done for.
After dinner was done, Nanashi laid down quietly on the couch. He felt bad that they trusted him so much. 'I have to get leaving soon, so I'll leave at night' thought Nanashi. He heard footsteps, and quickly rose up.
"Hey kid. You're a ninja right" asked Tazuna
"Yes," replied Nanashi
"I'm going to Konohana tomorrow, and I'll need someone to accompany me. Care to join?" Tazuna asked, hoping he said yes.
Nanashi blinked, registering the words in his head. 'Konohanagure huh' He smiled wickedly. "Sure, I've got nothing better to do"
Tazuna sighed in relief. 'Thank goodness!"
Nanashi waited as Tazuna ran around the house, trying to pack his things.
"And he could do this the night before because…" mumbled Nanashi.
"Because," Nanashi eyes widened in surprise that Tazuna heard him.
Tazuna swiped the sweat of his forehead as he sat wearily on a chair. "That's the last of it," he said as he pointed to a large bag.
Nanashi grunted in recognition. He grabbed the bag and glanced at the weary Tazuna. "Lets go." Tazuna nodded, got up, and was about to walk through the door when they were stopped by a loud voice.
"Wait!" shouted Inari. Nanashi and Tazuna looked back. 'He's coming to wish me a safe trip huh. What a good boy,' Tazuna closed his eyes and opened his arms, waiting for Inari to run into his arms, but all he felt was wind. He looked back and saw Inari run to Nanashi.
"You'll come back, won't you?" asked Inari. Nanashi didn't respond. "Won't you Nanashi nii-san," Nanashi lowered his head. "Perhaps." 'Of course not. I'll come back only to drop of Tazuna, then I'm off.'
Nanashi glanced at Tazuna, he seemed frozen. Nanashi went over to him and swung the bag at his head, with Tazuna ducking at the exact right time.
"What was that for," Tazuna grumbled. "Lets go," replied Nanashi. Tazuna stood up and nodded. As they walked down the path, that say Inari waving at them, and Tsunami standing in the door way, smiling slightly.
Over. Hahaaha, yay
