(At the Hot springs- 3:00 p.m.)

Naruto walked around the building over to the woman's side of the hot springs until he saw a badly dressed old man with long white hair sitting on a toad. Naruto picked up a pebble and throw it at the old man's head, making him smack his head against the wooden fence. Naruto heard the scrams of women and the rustle of towels being used to cover themselves.

Naruto did a few hand signs. "Sexy Jutsu," said Naruto turning into a girl version of himself as the women came out in nothing but towels. "There's the pervert!" yelled Naruto pointing at the pervert on the toad who let out a scream before Naruto ran away and turned back into himself just as the girls got through kicking the guys ass. Naruto walked over and helped the old man up. "You alright?" asked Naruto helping him up. "Yeah I'm just fine," said the old man as he recognized Naruto. "Naruto!? I haven't seen you since the day you were born," said the old man shocking Naruto. "And you are?" said Naruto knowing full well who this man was.

"I'm Jiraiya of the Sannin and your honorary grandfather. I was also asked by your father to train you. So I will," said Jiraiya grinning. "You are?" asked Naruto with a raised eyebrow. "Yep. How's little Anko by the way? It's been a while since I last saw her," said Jiraiya thinking about the little ball of energy she was a few years back. "Anko is doing alright, but I need you to train me for the up and coming Chunin Exam Finals. I have a promise to keep," said Naruto looking into Jiraiya eyes. "What the hell kid? I got nothing better to do for a while. Alright Kid can you summon?" asked Jiraiya scratching his head.

"Yeah Jiraiya. I can summon Foxes," said Naruto with a smile.

"Looks like I'll have to teach you a better then that. Come to training ground 17 tomorrow at noon and I'll show you one of your father's most powerful attacks," said Jiraiya disappearing in a poof of smoke.

Naruto sighed as he begun making his way to his home to make perpetrations for his date later that night. Naruto decided to make his way to the Raman stand to get a quick bite, only to run into Team Vixen literally only 8 blocks away.

"Tatianna, Anna, Alice what's the rush?" asked Naruto looking into their eyes. "Naruto-kun it's very important to your future as well as your families," said Tatianna in a rushed rush. Naruto narrowed his eyes and looked at them. "You'd better follow me to my house and I suggest you go ahead of me," said Naruto as they took off to the Uzumaki estates.

(Uzumaki estates- 3:12 p.m.)

"You girls go inside and don't come out no matter what you hear," said Naruto in a commanding tone that left no room for argument. When the girls went in Naruto summoned his blade. "You can come out now ROOT-san," said Naruto as a ROOT member wearing a shark mask came out of hiding. "What are you doing on my property you piece of shit?" asked Naruto showing his anger. "I was sent to kill those girls so step aside Uzumaki-san or I will have to kill you," said Shark. "Not a chance in hell!" yelled Naruto as he quickly ran through hand signs. "Wind style: Slicing Gale Jutsu as the wind picked up a bit. "Die!" yelled The ROOT member as he drew his Katana and charged Naruto. Just as he was about to stab Naruto he stopped, only inches short. "What in the name of Kami-sama?" said Shark.

"You dare try to harm those girls. YOU and your boss are going to regret it. Oh and don't say Kami, because He or she is not about to help you. Monkey, Dragon, Tiger, Hare, Bore, Bird, Rat, Ram, Ox, Dragon, Hare. Wind style: Transcending slash," said Naruto hitting both arms and making the ROOT member scream in pain. "Give this message to your boss," said Naruto quickly scribbling something down on a piece of paper and putting it into the ANBU's armor. He then summoned a Fox to take him to Danzo's tower office.

Naruto walked into his house to see the girls standing at the door. "Sorry to cause you trouble Naruto-kun," said Alice bowing her head. "No problem at all, but Danzo is now targeting you three so it would be best if you stayed here for a while. Danzo is about to be pissed off big time. Now can you girls help me out?" said Naruto with a smirk.

(Hokage tower Danzo's office- 3:30 p.m.)

Danzo was finishing the last of his paperwork when a fox came into his office and left one of his NE members on the floor with a note attached to his armor. Danzo picked up the letter and began to read it.

Danzo

If it's war you want it's war you'll get. I know of your plans, but can do little about them in the past, now you've gone to far. You, and your little toy ROOTS are going down. With or without support from the Council there will be WAR between us and only my side will walk away. I hope you have a good day, because they are numbered starting now.

Your Executioner

Naruto Uzumaki

Danzo crushed the letter in his hand. "Uzumaki, you won't live to see the next week," said Danzo pulling out a kunai and killing the ROOT member just as Rankoshu walked in. "Danzo-sama the Haruno's have agreed to the deal," said Rankoshu as Danzo turned to him with Rage clear in his eye. "Rankoshu gather 60 of my best ROOTS agents. Tomorrow night the Uzumaki die, but make sure that Naruto is still alive," said Danzo walking over to his window. "It will be done at once.

(Uzumaki estates- 7:45 p.m.)

Team Vixen stood around Naruto in the lobby, eyeing him in the clothes they helped him pick out for his date with Hana. A long sleeve blood red button up shirt, white pants, white jacket, red and white dress shoes. Naruto also had his hair undone from his normal ponytail and had a few bangs hanging over his left eye. They nodded in approval and grinned.

"You look good enough to eat Naruto-kun," said Anna. "Thank you Anna-chan. Hey have any of you seen Anko?" asked Naruto as the girls shuck their heads. Naruto sighed and was just about to leave to get Hana when he saw Zabuza wearing a replica of his clothes, but the jacket and pants were black, and his shirt was mist blue, he also had an old gangster hat on his head.

"Zabuza is that you?" asked Naruto looking stunned. "Yeah it's me kid. I have a date tonight," said Zabuza with a blush on his cheeks. "Really? With who?" asked Naruto. "With me," came a voice from the stairs. Naruto looked up and saw it was Anko. She wore a dark blue dress that went down to her knees, only had a wide strap on the left shoulder, black high heels, and a locket on her neck. "How do I look Naruto?" asked Anko walking down and standing in front of Naruto. "As lovely as my big sister always looks, said Naruto hugging her.

"Thank you little brother, well we'd better, be off," said Anko as Zabuza opened the door for her, but before he walked out Naruto stood next to him. "Make her cry, I make you bleed," said Naruto making Zabuza sweat a bit as he walked out. "Well girls I'm out," said Naruto jumping out of the door. "Damn it's always the cute ones that are taken," said Alice.

(Inuzuka Compound- 7: 59 p.m.)

The clan head stood at the door with Hana and Kiba. Hana wore a red dress with spaghetti straps, that went to her knees, red heels, and her hair was done into a bun. "Do you think he'll be on time mom?" asked Hana. "Yes," said Tusme and just as the clock hit 8:00 there was a polite knock on the door. "See, said Tusme as she opened the door. There stood Naruto with a smile. "Are you ready to go Hana?" asked Naruto blushing as he looked at her as she smiled. "Of course Naruto-kun," said Hana grabbing his arm.

"Have fun you two," said Tusme as they walked out. "I hope Hana bears his pups soon, how i want grandkids," thought Tusme with stars in her eyes.

"Naruto-kun where are we going," said Hana as they walked into one of the upper class parts of Konoha. "Here we are," said Naruto as they stopped in front of " The Golden Leaf Restaurant". "Naruto-kun this is an expense restaurant," said Hana in awe. "He just earned major points with me," thought Hana. "Well since I wanted to impress you i thought it would be good," said Naruto walking in with Hana in his Arm. "Well call me impressed," said Hana kissing him on the lips.

When they entered they saw a Bouncer at the front desk. "Excuse me, but do you have reservations," said the man. "Yes I do under Naruto Uzumaki," said Naruto. " Ah. Well sir you see your sister is also eating here and has put the two reservations together she and her date have a floor table and your also in luck tonight is open mic night Have fun Uzumak-sama," said the Bouncer. "Thank you said Naruto handing him 500 cash they walked over to Anko and Zabuza who were just about to finish ordering. When Hana and Naruto sat down Naruto ordered some sasame chicken and sweet and sour pork, while Hana ordered a plate of octopus with shrimp and chicken. They had a light conversation until their food came. After another half hour a man walked to a stage and announced that it was time for open mic. Naruto got up and picked a song everyone would like (underlined is talk I don't own the song)

As life goes on I'm starting to learn more and more about responsibility
And I realize everything I do is affecting the people around me
So I want to take this time out to apologize for things I have done
And things that have not occurred yet
And the things they don't want to take responsibility

I'm sorry for the times that I left you home
I was on the road and you were alone
I'm sorry for the times that I had to go
I'm sorry for the fact that I did not know
That you were sitting home just wishing we
Could go back to when it was just you and me
I'm sorry for the times I would neglect
I'm sorry for the times I disrespect

I'm sorry for the wrong things that I've done
I'm sorry I'm not always there for my loved ones
I'm sorry for the fact that I am not aware
That you can't sleep at night when I am not there
Because I am in the streets like everyday
Sorry for the things that I did not say
Like how you are the best thing in my world
And how I am so proud to call you my girl

I understand that THERES some problems
And I am not too blind to know
All the pain you kept inside you
Even though you might not show
If I can apologize for being wrong
Then it's just a shame on me
I'll be the reason for your pain and you can put the blame on me

You can put the blame on me [4x
Said you can put the blame on me [3x
You can put the blame on me

Sorry for the things that he put you through
And all the times you didn't know what to do

Sorry that you had to go and sell those bags
Just trying to stay busy till you heard from Dad
And you would rather be home with all your kids
As one big family with love and bliss
And even though Pops treated us like kings

He got a second wife and you didn't agree
He got up and left you there all alone
I'm sorry that you had to do it on your own
I'm sorry that I went and added to your grief
I'm sorry that your bro was once a thief
I'm sorry that I grew up way too fast
I wish I would've listened and not be so bad
I'm sorry your life turned out this way
I'm sorry the NINS came and took me away

I understand that THERES some problems
And I am not too blind to know
All the pain you kept inside you
Even though you might not show
If I can apologize for being wrong
Then it's just a shame on me
I'll be the reason for your pain and you can put the blame on me

You can put the blame on me [4x
Said you can put the blame on me [3x
You can put the blame on me

I'm sorry that it took so long to see
They were dead wrong trying to put it on me
I'm sorry that it took so long to speak
But I was on tour for Sarutobi
I'm sorry for the hand that she was dealt
For the embarrassment that she felt
Just a little young girl trying to have fun
Her daddy should never let her out that young
I'm sorry for Club Zen getting shut down
I hope they manage better next time around
How was I to know she was underage
in a ninja only club they say
Why doesn't anybody wanna take blame
verizon BACKED OUT disgracing my name
I'm just a singer trying to entertain
Because I love my fans I'll take that blame
Even though the blame's on you [3x
I'll take that blame from you

And you can put that blame on me [2x
You can put that blame on me

And you can put that blame on me

When Naruto finished the song there was not a dry eye in the restaurant. As Naruto left the stage everyone clapped and shuck his hand as he walked by. Hana ran over to him and hugged him afterwards. "Can we just go home please Naruto-kun?" asked Hana as she left out a few tears still tinking of how lovely and sad the song was. Naruto smiled and wiped her tears away. "Of course Hana-chan," said Naruto as he paid the bell and they left with Anko and Zabuza following close behind. Anko and Zabuza decided to hit the clubs for a bit, before going home, while Naruto and Hana went back to his home house.

Hana and Naruto sat in the living room for a bit, before they both went up stairs to Naruto's room. Naruto removed his jacket and shirt, while Hana took off her dress and slipped into a black tee that was a little to big for her. They laid in his bed and just enjoyed each others company.

"I love you Naruto-kun," said Hana as she kissed him. "I love you too Hana-chan," said Naruto as they went to sleep.
