I came to you to see your smiling face. I stayed beside you to feel your warm presence. I smelled your hair to breathe your sweet aura. I held you tight to share our feelings. Please, don't be sad. I will always be here, rest in your soul though you cannot see me anymore. I will always true to you. That's not a promise coz I will make it truly, forever.

Naruto stood smiling as he looked at his father who was just announced five new bodyguards for him. The guys, who look like Man in Black minus glasses, saluted at him. They bowed a little, and Naruto did the same. He tried to give his best posture albeit awkwardly and hoped that he can get along with them.
Not that he really wish for it.
"I, Namikaze Minato, sign the contract with Konoha Inc. and hire you five as my son's bodyguards." The director finally decided as he signed the paper given by Shikamaru. He didn't have time to search for another bodyguard because he was so busy. Minato then looked at Iruka and gave an eye contact. Iruka nodded. "One thing, though: if I hear something bad happens to my son, I won't hesitate to take every single one of you into the court. You better take a good care of him… more than your life!"
One stern serious glare from two pools of deep sapphire was signaling a heavy atmosphere from the man who was still sitting behind a desk filled with tidy papers. It could be seen how fatal one misstep will bring them to. They just have yet to know about it.
Having enough of the treatment the director gave to the bodyguards, Iruka clapped his hands twice. "Ok, let's go outside! Minato-sama has to work again. I'll take care of the administration," told Iruka as he opened the door and allowed them, including Naruto, to follow him out.
Naruto slowed his steps and stopped for a moment. He turned to the man who was now looking at him. "… Have a nice day, Dad." Naruto told his father softly. His lips formed a small—cold—smile before going outside. The man didn't notice the smile but the words.
Minato was sure that it had been a long time ago since his son called him 'dad'. Since twelfth, never once Naruto used 'dad' again. He changed it with 'father' as a polite manner. Minato smiled sadly at the closed door where his son had disappeared. He let out a long, heavy sigh while massaging his own temples.
"I'm sorry, Nacchan…"
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Walking across a long corridor, the bodyguards spent a weird feeling in their heart. They looked secretly at their new master who was walking silently with his solid gesture in front of them. They wanted to ask questions but didn't know whether they are allowed or not. In the middle of their curiosity, Akamaru jumped from Kiba and barked at Naruto.
"Arf arf!"
"A-Akamaru! What are you doing?!" cursed Kiba as he got his dog back into his arms. He felt rather guilty for making noise and ready to face any reprimand. Instead of it, he received a grin from Naruto who walked towards him and Akamaru.
"Hey, there! He was that yesterday dog, right!? I saw you and him in the park last night," stated Naruto happily.
Kiba confused, "Eh? How'd you know—" but got cut off by Iruka.
"Bocchama! Did you sneak up AGAIN?!" yelled the guardian toward his young master.
"Oops." Naruto rolled his eyes when he realized that he just revealed his improper act. He didn't really care, though.
"I told you not to go out alone especially when it's dark! You still remember 'that day', right?! Please don't do that again! You're a son of a millionaire and you could've gotten yourself killed!" Iruka worriedly reprimanded Naruto while the said boy looked at him with no interest and then just went to his own room. Iruka was about to stop him when Akamaru jumped again onto Naruto's head.
Kiba thought that this time he wouldn't save.
Naruto got the dog in his arms securely then stroke its soft purr. "I want to borrow your dog. You five, please come in to my room," he told his bodyguards politely. "Iruka-sensei, please invite Lee and Chouji. I'm sure they will be glad to meet my new bodyguards," added him to Iruka as he passed him, followed by his bodyguards.
Iruka remained silent but then he nodded, "Yes of course, Bocchama."
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
They came in to another antique room that seems to be their master's. Before entering, they looked at each other then nodded. Inside, there is a big elegant bed, an antique wardrobe that has an Indian style, a home theatre added by a new type of laptop and play station, a full body and face mirror with some ancient pagoda, and many more that couldn't be explain by human nerves. Those things made them extra careful not to touch or break.
Naruto sat on a bed carpet that lies after his big one and allowed them to sit there too. Unfortunately, they rejected the offer.
"No. We cannot stand or sit in the same position as our master. That's the rule no.3," Shikamaru said politely.
Naruto sighed. "I just want you to sit so we can talk to each other," told him. Again, the answer was a 'no'.
"No. We do not talk to each other unless it is necessary and about the job to fulfill. That's the rule no.5," said Shikamaru again, made Naruto bumped his head to the carpet.
"Stop the rules! Just sit here!" commanded Naruto firmly.
"Listen and obey your master's commands. That's the rule no. 2. I guess we have to sit," said Neji to the leader. Shikamaru stared at him and sighed. Then, they sat by their master. Naruto mentally rolled his eyes when nobody starts the conversation.
"Sorry, could you please introduce yourself?" asked Naruto. "I have to know your names if I want something to do," he added.
Kiba snorted upon hearing that. He remembered a story of his seniors in Guards Division where they were played by their master. Moreover, he remembered the director of Namikaze Company pissed him off just now. He won't have it anymore.
"Yeah, sure! So that you can screw us up!"
Strike first!
Neji elbowed Kiba. "You're not supposed to say that, Kiba! Apologize!" whispered him firmly. Kiba was getting annoyed but by the time he looked at his master, he changed his expression.
Naruto made a small smile that didn't reach his eyes then said, "Well, you've said the words I want to say. Indeed, I don't want any bodyguard but my father had a different plan and chose you five as my bodyguards. So, I guess I have to use them well."
Kiba's anger exploded as he grabbed Naruto's collar and yelled, "HEY YOU FUCKIN' RICH BOY! DON'T EVEN TRY TO INSULT US BY USING THAT 'USE' THING! I'M GONNA KICK YOUR BUTT UNTIL YOU KNOW HOW TO BE POLITE ON—"
"KIBA! Stop that! You're messing yourself! Let him go!" Shikamaru commanded as he held his comrade's wrist and made him let their master go. Naruto was smoothing his hem while Kiba tried to regain his composure. "We're sorry, Master!" The leader apologized.
"Sorry for what?" asked the blonde haired teen as he lifted an eyebrow. He didn't remember doing something that requires the leader to apologize to him. If it was about the guy who had just attacked him, he didn't mind. Really. In fact, he found that the one named Kiba was interesting… like a scared dog.
"Sorry for bothering you to accept us as your bodyguards, MASTER!" yelled Kiba without focusing on Naruto.
The rich boy mentally laughed while shaking his head in reality. "The one who makes you to be my bodyguards is Namikaze Minato-sama. So, 'sorry' doesn't necessary," he said. Then, he stroke Akamaru's soft fur that was placed on his lap. "Isn't that right, Akamaru-chan?" The dog barked softly.
Kiba was staring at them confusedly. He knew that Akamaru only get along with someone he likes and it seemed that he likes Naruto. Did he misunderstand something?
"So, Master, we're going to introduce ourselves. My name's Nara Shikamaru, 18 years old. I'm the leader of this team." told Shikamaru. He then looked at Kiba who was mumbling a little like a kid.
"Alright, alright! My name's Inuzuka Kiba, 17 years old. I'm a detector of this team and I won't accept command that I don't like. Is that enough?" told Kiba with his awfully annoyed face.
Naruto shrugged his shoulder. "Suit yourself," he said.
"My name's Hyuuga Neji. I'm 18 years old. I'm as a detector—same as Kiba—and also a defender of this team. Pleased to meet you, Master," uttered Neji with an elegant smile. Naruto replied with a smile too before turning to look at someone with red hair.
"Sabaku Gaara, 16 years old," he said almost unheard. The master blinked a few times for the short introduction. Then, he looked at the raven haired guy, waiting for an introduction.
"…"
"…"
Naruto waved his hand in front of that guy, "Hello?" Receiving no answer, he looked at the others. Shikamaru muttered a word resembling 'troublesome', Kiba still annoyed, Neji touched his own hair and stroke it and Gaara just stared emotionlessly. The blonde boy sighed.
"Sasuke…" called the leader, "introduce yourself."
Blue eyes widen a bit. Tan skin shivered further upon hearing the name.
"We apologize. He doesn't talk much, so don't mind him," told Shikamaru.
Naruto shook his head slowly. His orbs stared deeply into the raven haired guy. And as if knowing that, the guy stared back at him. Sapphire met onyx. Day met night.
Fox met wolf.
I hate to see you cry coz it makes me want to cry too. I hate to see you sad coz it makes me sad too. But better to see you in both than to see you curve a fake smile. You just hurt me more coz I know you didn't feel that way. Please, do not ever smile when you don't have courage to smile. Fake is worse.
_NP_
Ah… he's here.
"He is Uchiha Sasuke, 18 years old. He is as the attacker of this team along with Kiba, while Gaara here is a defender—same as Neji." The explanation came from Shikamaru after muttering his wise word. Then, silence covered the atmosphere till a chuckled been heard by that moment. The bodyguards looked at their master who let the voice out from his throat.
"Interesting!" shouted Naruto cheerfully. "Very interesting!" added him as he stroke Akamaru's fur while it barks softly. "Especially you, Uchiha Sasuke-san~"
Suddenly, the atmosphere became heavier than before. The bodyguards realized it right after their master finished his speaking. The dog realized it too for it jumped from the boy's lap to Kiba's. All eyes now turned to the blue orbs that seemed to shift red for just a millisecond before going back to blue according to their trained ones.
Naruto smiled a beauty but odd smile. He looked at his bodyguards one by one before stopping at the Uchiha.
"Let's get along, shall we?"
Yes, let's play then.
