Chapter 2: The Down Fall
As Naruto sat there on top of the monument he couldn't help but wonder how things are going to change between him and Iruka-sensai. Iruka has always been there since he was little he grew on to be a father to him and him a son. How can it be that in fifteen years he is going to lose him as a father and gain a mother in return. All Naruto wanted was a male role model a model to look upon as a father why would he want a mother when he basically has Tsunade to look for that. Though she was pretty much a grandma to him but she really was more like a mother but face you cant call her mother knowing that she is fifty years old. He sighed he knew this way of thinking was getting him nowhere. What really bugged him was why did Iruka waited so long to tell him did he really think he was still a child yes he maybe still fifteen but he was going to be sixteen in October which was a month away. Or was it really the fact of losing his father model to surgery just to have the limbs of a woman just to have kids. If that was the true case couldn't they just adopt? Its better to adopt a child then go through drastic measures to have kids.
At this thought Naruto felt even worst. He has been an orphan his whole life he knew what it was like to want a family to belong in a family. Iruka is always the person that cares for children and yet he is over there getting an unnecessary surgery not needed for. Yes Naruto was getting mad at Iruka now for what he couldn't think through for how much he can make a child happy.
"Face it kit your just worried that Iruka wont pay attention to you anymore" Kyubbi said feeling everything that Naruto was feeling. In truth he hated Naruto to feel all sad.
"I don't know Kyubbi maybe it's a little of both worried of being replaced by Kakashi and mad for Iruka getting a sex change when he can adopt." He sighed "I don't want to be there when he gets the sex change. I would rather avoid him if I had the choice but I cant run away that goes against what I am. To never go back on my way of ninja."
"Kit he is family to you. You cant turn your back on family and you know fully aware if you do it will devastate Iruka and more way possible."
"Your right. I just have to face it the best way possible it might take awhile but it is something I have to face head on." Naruto smiled a sad smile on this.
"That's right kit you have to." It was all Kyubbi said to leave Naruto in his own world.
Thinking he had nothing more to think of he decides to just things ride out for now and see where this leads him. Shaking his head on how thinking won't help him change things he left things at that and decides its time to go home. Getting up and walking his way down the path to get home he stares up at the night sky just looking at him makes him feel so calm and relaxed. Remembering on how many memories he has underneath the starlit sky. Arriving at the Uchiha mansion he climbs to his balcony to his room he opens his glass doors to his room. A habit that he never closes things when he used to live on his own at his apartment. He smirked on how old habits die hard.
Tired on how things turned up today he decides a goodnights sleep well do him good. Going into his bathroom that is connected to his room he goes to brush his teeth and change into his pajamas. He wears his star pajama shirt and pants and puts on his nightcap to sleep in. He crawls under his blankets and falls fast to sleep. Next morning came and he rose up early enough to shower and change into clean clothes and to meet Sasuke downstairs.
"Morning teme!" He yelled out at him with a big grin on his face.
"Isnt it a bit early to be this happy in the morning?" He frowned at him. Oh yes Sasuke was not a morning person.
"Nah its never too early for anything! Just like ramen you can eat it anytime of the day!" Naruto jumped up and down having a fantasy of eating ramen but when he suddenly stopped and got a great idea "I want ramen! YES! THAT'S WHAT I WANT! AND I AM GOING TO GET IT NOW!" With that said he rampaged through the kitchen looking for his precious ramen. Looking through every cupboard, nook and cranny he was yet able to find his holy food created by the gods! "Oi TEME! Where's my ramen?!"
Sasuke smirked and answered, "You ate them all you Dobe. Don't you remember you ate them all yesterday you said you were going to buy some yesterday but you never did. It seems that your not going to get to eat ramen this morning." With that said Sasuke couldn't help but to smirk more at him.
Naruto rumbling to himself made his way to the fridge to get butter and orange juice. He got two slices of bread and put them in the toaster waiting for them to pop up he was starting to feel weird like u know that something was going to happen but u don't know when. Startled from his thoughts he looks for what got him to jump looking in front of he glared at the bread that was toasted and blamed him for jumping. Spreading butter on his bread and pouring himself a cup of orange juice he makes his way to the table and sits in front of Sasuke. They just sat there eating their breakfast in piece him with his toast and Sasuke with his porridge. After they finished they made their way out the house and head their way to the meeting bridge like the old days. On their way there neither of them said anything to each other. Sasuke afraid to say anything to Naruto still not knowing on how Naruto feels aboot yesterday and Naruto still having this bad feeling that something is going to happen and cant shake off the feeling. Seeing that they have arrived Naruto went off to his normal greeting like always.
"Ohayo Sakura-chan!" waving at her with all of his might. Sasuke smiled a little seeing that Naruto was doing ok after what had happened yesterday.
"Oh! Ohayo Naruto! Sasuke-kun!" she smiled at them as they made their way to her. With that said they remind the rest of the time waiting for their sensai to arrive which it wont be till later later whenever their sensai decides to arrive. Two hours passed until finally the heard a poof sound indicating that their sensai had arrived.
"YOUR LATE!" both yelled Sakura and Naruto.
"What excuse you have this time Kakashi-sensai?" questioned Sakura.
"Ne, ne, I was helping a leprechaun pick up his gold that he had dropped on his way to the forest." He said with a smile.
"Do u actually expect us to believe that? That's the lamest I've heard as of now." questioned Naruto squinting at him.
"Well now that am here lets get to work! First Sakura go practice your genjutsu you have learned as of yet. Naruto you go practice on your ninjutsu. And Sasuke you train with me today I will teach you a new jutsu that I know you will like. Now everyone get to work." That said everyone did as told except for Naruto who just stood there cant believing what he has heard his sensai say to Sasuke. How can he still favor him after everything that he has done even after what he did to him in the past. He did forgive him but the feeling that he did wanted to kill him still hurt. But what hurt right now is that Kakashi is leaving him behind just like what he did on the chunin exams. Finding him the weakest trainer to train him thinking on that back he couldn't help but to feel angry towards this man. This man that was going to marry his Iruka-sensai! He felt angry always expecting so little of him just because who he in just being him. Did he really think that he cant learn just as much as Sasuke! Was he really that weak! He was the one that brought that bastard back and yet this whole village still doesn't acknowledge him for what he did and what he sacrificed to get him back but does everyone notice? NO! All they see is Sasuke Sasuke Sasuke!
Fed up with this he goes deep in the forest to train to get his mind off these things. He does his shadow clone jutsu and starts to fight. He gives his all in this fight. Kicking, punching, throwing his kunais at them. He made twenty clones first each them going down. They came at him at every direction. Two of them on his right coming at him with a kunai in each hand he kicked one at the stomach the other in his chest with a poof they were gone. He kept kicking and punching all of them not letting up on the whole situation he gave it his all in this fight. After they have all poof away he made the seals again and summoned forty to take the place of each one. Again he started the fight scene all over again. He kept at it for hours until he collapsed from exhaustion. He fell on his knees panting and breathing in deep. Then he felt a sharp pain shot up through his body. He drew his hands up grasping his arms with his hands until the pain subside. He kept there until the pain went away little by little. Finally it did and he just stayed their until his breaths came to a small rhythm again. He wondered was that why he felt uneasy since this morning?
After he pulled himself together again he stood up on his feet all wobbly but stood. He heard steps coming towards where he was. He turned to see Sasuke coming to look for him. Sasuke upon seeing him he wondered what the dobe was doing to look so drained and tired feeling in not asking he told him that Kakashi has an announcement. He nodded and walked back towards the training grounds. Steadily but clumsy he walked back and met up back to the person that made him go all rampaged like that.
Kakashi seeing that Sasuke had found Naruto he smiled and felt that he can get this on the way now.
"OK! First thing there will be no practice tomorrow you have the day off. The reason for not have practice tomorrow is because I want to spend time with Iruka before he gets the operation done after tomorrow. So enjoy your day tomorrow! Oh and Naruto if you want to spend time with Iruka you are more than welcome to do so!" he waited to hear Naruto's reply.
"No its ok. I don't want to bother the both of you. I will just let you guys be." He said with a smile on his face to hide the hurt and anger towards his sensai.
"Alright then but if you ever change your mind don't hesitate to drop on by. Oh and if you want to be there for Iruka for his surgery it will begin at ten a.m. and it will last for two hours. Ok! With that done and dandy I will be on my way no more practice for the day you guys have the rest of the day off." Then Kakashi poofed out of there probably to find his Iruka and spend time together. Sakura left to find Ino and hang out together and that left Sasuke and Naruto. They just stood there not saying or doing nothing until Sasuke was the first to break it.
"You want to get some ramen? Am buying." Hoping that with his offer he can draw Naruto form whatever he was so deep in mind on. After a while he finally heard Naruto answer.
"Sure! Lets go!" Naruto faced him with his all happy go lucky smile that everyone knew about and what he is best known for. Naruto was the first to start down the path to Ichikaru. Though on the outside it seemed like he had no care in the world but in truth be told he was terrified on which 'What if the pain comes back again but worst! Is it because of the Kyubbi? If so does that mean the seal is breaking?' He felt so scared but pushed that thought away and tried to hide it from Sasuke.
