I do not own Naruto or anything else I might use in this story that you find in books and movies
Warning: this fic includes a smart Naruto, maybe slash/yaoi in later chapters
The pull for Naruto is like this :
Sasuke: 1
Gaara : 1
Itachi : 7 blinks wow…. he just keeps on going
Kabuto: 2
Ps. I removed everyone that didn't have a vote cause I still wanna se if there is some way that Naruto winds up with someone other then Itachi or Sasuke….but its seems not
A Change for the better
Naruto sighed in boredom as he sat on the blue, slightly ripped old couch. He was waiting for his aniki and perhaps the sand team if they showed up before Gabriel got there. He grinned slightly as he remember what had happened when he came home.
Flashback
Naruto sighed as he unlocked his door 'man talk about interrogation by friends, now to relax until Gabriel comes'he grinned slightly and swung the door open only to yelp as he had to jump up on the door frame, sticking to it by chakra to avoid a barrage of Kunai that imbedded themselves where he had been standing.
Naruto jumped down and looked around suspicious, looking for the enemy that wisent even there. But there was something else. On the table by the couch was a bundle of clothes and a letter. Naruto curiously moved towards it, still on his guard as he picked up the letter and opened it to read. Then he smiled.
End of flashback
Naruto recalled the letter without problem.
Dear Naruto
I'm gonna take a chance and say that your skills are good enough to avoid the trap I laid out if not….well consider it a part of your training. Now onto other important matters…….your clothes. NARUTO WHAT THE HECK!! ORANGE!? Do you enjoy walking around like a big fluffy bull's-eye ? it's a wonder you haven't gotten killed yet.
Naruto could feel the frustration and the worry in the words as he took forth the letter to read the rest.
Well anyway I got you some new clothes to wear and you better have it on you when I get back or I'm kicking your ass so hard you cant stand!
Your aniki
Gabriel
Ps. The sand team might drop by so don't be surprised
Pss. your doomed if your still in that jumpsuit Naruto
Psss. Be nice to the sand team.
Pssss. I seriously mean it Naruto, I'll tan your hide if your wearing the bull's eye
Naruto snickered as he tugged on his new hoody, Gabriel had quite the taste when it came to the chase. A green hoody with the Konoha leaf mark on its back and the swirl that Naruto had become known with on its left shoulder, both in black, on his right arm was his headband as he now decided to let his hair down in a small ponytail in the nape of his neck. He wore normal black shinobi footwear but they felt a little heavier then normal.
Naruto frowned but shrugged as he analysed the rest of himself. A par of black jounin pants enhanced his legs and right over left knee and right tight he was bandage for his kunai and senborn holsters not to make any discomfort. On his wrist was a par of black wrist bands that he was sure was there with more then just being a thought of being decorative thing on him. In his right ear he had a singel hole with a gold loop in it. All in all he looked pretty damn good now.
Naruto sighed boredly as he waited for something to happen….anything really cause he was ready to tear his hair out in frustration and boredom!.
As Naruto laid his head down on the table he didn't notice the small whirl of sand that started to materialize on his floor, going faster and faster. His head shoot up as a small burst of chakra went of behind him and he jumped to the other side of the table to have something in-between himself and a possible enemy.
He then blinked and relaxed slightly when he notice who it was. The sand team. "Well…I guess I should say welcome to my home" he looked at the sand genins, the blond girl and the puppeteer looked fairly uneasy while Gaara was just…staring at Naruto. It was kinda creepy but Naruto shrugged it of and looked at them over them "if you're looking for Gabriel he is not here right now but he might come soon"
Kankuro twitched a little "Gaara, perhaps we should leave…I mean if he isn't even here…" Gaara cut him of "he is" he said emotionless as he looked towards a shadowy corner where chuckling could be heard from.
"it seems that Sands greates weapon is truly great" Gabriel said as he walked out from the shadows, whacking Naruto's head as he walked up to him "ow! What was that for!?" Gabriel glared down at him "I been there for five minutes and you didn't notice me….if I was a enemy you would be dead"
The stern voice and the anger in Gabriel's eyes where enough for Naruto to know that he really meant it and really…Naruto should have notice him, if not by chakra presens then by sent atleast. Speaking of sent…Naruto sniffed the air a few times and looked at a now guarded Gabriel "you smell strange aniki…you smell of snakes, of blood, your scents and something spicy"
Gabriel sighed "I'll tell you later okay? Right now we have other things to take care of" he pointed to Gaara before walking up to him, reaching one hand up to touch him. The reaction was instant. The sand at Gaara's feet shoot up and wrapped around Gabriel's arm, making him stop, coldly looking at it "are you gonna crush my hand Gaara? When I am perhaps the only our in the world that can help you?"
Naruto and Gaara's siblings watched, all of them tense as they expected something to happen. But nothing did. The sand fell of Gabriel's hand and it fell down "well…atleast now I know you can control it to some degree" Gabriel gave him a small smile before he started rummaging around in his trenchcoat for something.
"You'll need to lose the armour if I'm to help you" Gabriel glanced at Gaara "I'll need to see your seal to know what's wrong with it and…" but before he could continue Kankuro broke him of "wait a second! Why should Gaara do that and how do you know all this!!" Kankuro glared as his hands twitched, ready for defence if he had to. But Gabriel just glanced at him before raising a eyebrow at Naruto who sighed and raised his shirt and channelled chakra, showing of the Kyuubi seal "this is how he knows" Naruto answered them "he knows cause I'm a demon vessel and he is a seal master"
The tenseness got bigger and seemingly all but Gabriel was affected as he was still looking thru his pocket for something. "AHA! There you are my love!!" Gabriel's shout all of them jump and look in disbelief as he put a lolly in his mouth, Gabriel just blinked at them before taking forth a brush pencil and a ink pot "now if you would follow me please Gaara" he got a serious gaze as he discarded his coat but kept the hat on.
"Follow me Gaara" he said as he moved towards Naruto's bedroom "why should I trust you?" he suddenly said making Gabriel stop looking over his shoulder "what else can you do?" he continued towards the bedroom and Gaara slowly followed him after a moment. "Entertain the guest's Naruto…this might take a while" the older blond closed the door and silence descended as they all felt a barrier go up on the other side of the door.
