Hello my fellow peeps! I'm so sorry this took so long! I feel so ashamed TT-TT. So, I read the tally and here are the latest results:

Hinata: 7

Tenten: 5

Mini-harem: 4

Fem. Haku: 2

Tayuya: 1

Was surprised at the new stream of votes. Hinata has gained the lead so far, so things should be interesting. Now, to depress you all. Genin Exams won't be till next chapter, a reader suggested that I should put the BLUs into Konoha life, and I think that's a good idea. Sorry :P Plus something else has been bothering me about the story. It will be revealed later. Now enjoy PLuLEAzh!

The following two anime/ games do not belong to me in any way, shape or form. Naruto belongs to Masashi Kishimoto, and all characters and items and mentions of TF2 belong to Valve.

MEET THE ORANGINEER: Chapter 7

Naruto and his family were walking down the road to their old apartment. They were all extremely pissed. The Spy, Medic, Engineer, Soldier, Sniper and Naruto had frowns and scowls on their faces, while Heavy, Demoman, and Scout had snarls on their faces. Pyro was behind them, doing what seemed to be muttering under her mask. Why they all were pissed? They had just gotten back from the meeting involving the Uchiha, and it had gone downhill from there.

Flashback

Naruto, Shikamaru, Shino, Choji, and Kiba had just arrived outside the council room, and had been nodded in by the ANBU at the door. As they walked in, they were greeted by an unexpected sight. They did expect the shinobi council, Hokage and the Elders, but they didn't expect the following. Sasuke was tied up in to the side of the with two ANBU on each side of him, their tantos out and ready in case something happened. On the side where the old civilian sat was a new council, which especially shocked Naruto. When he left, he heard the old council had been disbanded. He looked over the new council, and was shocked to see people he recognized. People who had liked him.

There were seven civilian council members, now seven since the Uchiha clan had been annihilated by Itachi Uchiha two years after Naruto left. One was the ramen guy who owned Naruto's favorite ramen shop. Another was a weapon's shop owner that had let Naruto shop in his store without charging him or treating him like crap. Another was a head doctor who had treated him properly and had told him stories whenever he had been in the hospital. Another was a bald old man with a white long beard who had saved him from a mob multiple times. The last three were some shop owners who had been somewhat nice to him over the years.

The last thing they didn't expect to see was all the BLUs standing in the room, looking angrily at the Uchiha. After a moment, the five students walked into the room more, until they stood in the middle of the room.

"What's up Lord Hokage?" Naruto asked as he looked around the room, remembering to be 'respectful' in hiss addressing to him. Whilst it was 'respectful', the sentence all together just made a few council members chuckle.

"Well," the Hokage said as he looked at the five of them, "because of recent events that occurred during the test, we have called you and the four heirs with you here to discuss what will happen to Sasuke Uchiha." The Hokage sent a small glare at the Uchiha, which didn't go unnoticed by the others.

"Why the hell are you punishing me?" a voice yelled. Everyone turned to see the tied up Sasuke with an angry look on his face. "He should be punished for putting his filthy hands on me! I'm an Uchiha, an elite! I—" before he could finish however, he was met with a very painful kick to his family jewels by the Pyro. A small girlish scream form him was heard as he dropped in head in pain. Most of the men in the room winced; almost felt sympathy for him, with almost being the keyword.

"Mmph phph mph murh phpph mrh mrph hrm!" The Pyro muffled at Sasuke, pointing angrily at him. The BLUs and Naruto shivered slightly at this except the Medic who chuckled evily, while the others had confused looked on their faces.

"What did she say?" the Hokage asked, slightly confused and scared at what the answer would be." The Medic looked at them and smiled a creepy grin as he explained.

"Ze Pyro said that ze dumkomph over zere should not talk to her zon like zat. Und if he does, she'll take her axe und make it zo he never has children!" The Medic said with a loud laugh. All the men paled, with those sitting down crossing their legs. The Hokage shivered slightly before speaking again.

"Even so Sasuke Uchiha, you still attacked Naruto Uzumaki Conagher, a fellow citizen of the Leaf Village, with intent to kill him. This is unexcusable for anyone, and so the council shall decide your fate." The Hokage said.

"WHAT! You can't do this to me you old fogie! I'm an Uchiha, and I demand-" Sasuke yelled, but was stopped with killing intent directed at him. He saw where it was coming from, the Hokage, who had a pissed expression on his face.

"Sasuke Uchiha, as your leader, you will NOT, under any circumstances, speak to me in this way, or else I will kill you immediately! You are lucky that I am giving you a choice altogether, or else you would be a stain on this council room floor! Now you will be silent or you WILL face horrible consequences!" The Hokage yelled at him, his face now in an angry snarl. Sasuke involuntarily shivered, before he closed his mouth.

"Hold on a sec, Lord Hokage, why are we here to talk about it though?" Naruto asked, gaining the attention of the Hokage.

"Well Naruto," the Hokage said, "This is because you were the 'victim', so to speak, and the four with you observed it. Also, your family is here because since this did happen to you, it is a family matter for them, so they get to decide as well." Sasuke felt a strange fear weigh down his stomach, he turned his head, and involuntarily gulped as he looked at the BLUs. They were all looking at him with looks to kill. Some had open grins on their faces. He wouldn't admit it, but he was scared out of his mind.

"Now Naruto, could you and your friends explain to us what happened during the Exam?" the Hokage asked. Naruto nodded before he started. He told them about the first fight, the attempted thievery from him, and the attempt to kill him during the fight. When the Hokage asked the others, they told the same thing Naruto told them. After they had finished, the council made their verdict…

Flashback end

…and the BLU family thought it sucked. After they had told their stories, the council had been ready to seal his Sharingan, stop him from being a shinobi, or just kill him. However, fate decided to piss them off in the form of Elder Koharu. She had said that they couldn't stop his Sharingan or training, and especially couldn't kill him, because they had to continue the Uchiha line. The point that made it go downhill was when she said Itachi might come back and kill him, and if he couldn't defend himself, then everything would go downhill for Konoha. The Hokage, BLUs and Naruto were pissed at this, because they knew this would get everyone's attention. So with some slight hesitation, the council had voted that Sasuke would still become a shinobi, but he would be watched very carefully by ANBU for a long time.

This now led to the current events. Naruto and his family had arrived at the apartment complex, still grumbling about the trial. Naruto unlocked the door before stepping in, followed by his family. AS he looked around, he and Engineer were most surprised. The place looked absolutely spotless, with no dust. The two smiled as the others looked around. 'Jiji/ the Hokage must have kept the place clean while we were gone.' They both thought as they watched the others look around. The rest of his family looked around before they all turned to Naruto and the Engineer.

"Umm…hate to break it to ya mate but…well…" the Sniper said, trying to find the right words. The Scout did that for him.

"The place is too small. All of us won't fit in 'here." The Scout said bluntly, making everyone sweat drop. He received a head slap courtesy of the Spy, who received an angry glare from the Scout.

"While what he said was razer rude, he was correct little one" the Spy said as he leaned against the wall. "We might 'ave to go live somewhere else." Naruto's spirit dropped at this. Jiji had given this to him , and it was like a gift to him. He was about to saw something but was interrupted by the Demoman.

"Wait a secon' there. On te way here I saw that noo' one was here. Doose anyone else live in this coumplex?" the Demoman slurred as he rapped the wall behind him with his knuckles. There was a light resonation, signifying there was another apartment room behind this.

"No. Since everyone hated me for obvious reasons, Jiji gave me this place since everyone moved out." Naruto said, a little confused at the sentence. The Demoman simply smiled as he looked at the Heavy. The Heavy seemed to understand something, as he turned around and headed through the door a few feet away from the wall. Everyone except Demo wondered what was happening, before Heavy charged through the door and ran at the wall with a loud, "INCOMIIING!"

"HIT THE DECK!" Soldier yelled as everyone ducked out of the way of the charging behemoth. The Heavy hit the wall, sending huge cracks into it. It seemed to teeter, and then it just fell down completely, revealing the apartment next to it. As the dust settled, everyone looked into the new apartment 'addition'. It was a little bigger than the one they were in, and was a little dusty, but some cleaning would make it like there was never a wall there.

"OOHHAHAHAH! OOFFHUUUHHUU!" the Heavy laughed as he laughed loudly, wiping a tear from his eye. He turned to them and smiled. "Is well done! Now tiny baby house is bigger! We live here now!" he said to them in his loud voice, laughing once more. Everyone just seemed to stare, before they all joined in with some chuckling, then full out laughter. It was a couple of minutes before they stopped, and they all headed into their new 'addition'. They had some cleaning to do.

A few hours of cleaning and lots of wall breaking later, the BLUs apartment was now a huge bachelor pad. Having the Heavy break down six other apartment walls, they now had the whole upper half of the complex as a bachelor pad. It took some time, but they got it all clean, and now they just had to make some decoration changes to it. They were now sitting on the numerous couches they had herded into one room now dubbed the huge living room.

"Now," the Soldier said as he addressed them all, "With the new changes of this apartment, and finding how disgraceful this is, we are now going on a full on house hunt! We will scour the stores in this village for whatever we can find to change this pitiful dust house into a building of glory!"

"How are we paying for it though? Surely all the stuff will cost…money…" The Engineer said, halting at the end of his sentence. He smiled before he looked at Naruto. Naruto suddenly felt a huge drain would be going out of his bank very soon.

Minutes later, they all arrived at the bank that had Naruto's deposit in it. They stepped up to the counter as a middle-aged man said hello to them. "Hello! Welcome the National Leaf Village Bank. How can I help you today?" They all stared at him for a second. He didn't even ignore Naruto or try to kick them out. He either was new, or didn't care what Naruto had in him. They shook their heads before Engineer walked up.

"Yeah, we're here to pull some money outta my son's account. Should be under Conagher." The Engineer said as the man looked through some notes on his desk. He picked up one and looked over it, before his eyes went wide. He stared at them shockingly before he talked again.

"Uh…H-how long ago was the last time you accessed your account young man?" the man asked as he looked at them. Naruto eyed him weirdly before he spoke.

"Well, I think that was about seven years ago. Why?" Naruto asked, slightly worried.

"Well, with how long ago you accessed your account, along with the 10% interest on it once a month over the said amount of years, the amount in your account is now… 470,000,000 ryo." the man said with shock.

There was silence as the ten BLUs stood there, and then that was followed with Naruto fainting into the arms of his 'mother'. After a moment, the Engineer regained his focus and looked at the man again. "We'll be making a withdrawal then," Engineer said as he took out his wallet.

A few minutes later, the BLUs and Naruto walked out of the bank with about 30,000,000 in their numerous wallets. They had all split up to get the numerous things they needed to add to the new pad. The Heavy, Demoman, and Soldier had gone off with 10,000,000 to get furniture, plumbing supplies, and house appliances. Pyro, Sniper and Spy had gone off to do grocery and clothes shopping with another 10,000,000. The Medic had run off to the hospital, wanting to see how his equipment compared to theirs. That left the last 10,000,000 with Scout, Engineer and Naruto getting a major thing they needed: a forge for ammunition and metal components. Scout wouldn't have come along, but since Naruto was going, he wanted to have a conversation with his little brother.

They wandered around the village for a few minutes until they arrived at a weapon's shop. It was called 'Higarishi's Weapon Emporium'.

"Hey, I recognize this place!" Naruto said as they stood outside the shop. "One of those council guys owns this place. He always let be buy here." The Engineer smiled, putting a hand on Naruto's shoulder.

"Well then, we'll have tah thank him if he in there." The Engineer said as he and other two walked into the store. They were surprised at the sight when they walked in. There were weapons everywhere in the shop. From kunais and shuriken, to big things like zanbatous and katanas. There seemed to be hundreds of them everywhere, but they also seemed to stay organized at the same time. Near the back of the store was a large metal counter, which had a door behind with smells of hot metal behind it, labeling it as the forge. Standing at the counter was a girl around Naruto's age.

She had brown eyes and brown hair, which was pulled into two buns on the sides of her head. She wore a traditional Chinese clothes, with a pink Chinese shirt* and dark green pants. She saw them and smiled as the three stepped up to the counter.

"Hey there! Welcome to Higarashi's Weapon Emporium, how can I help you today?" the girl asked giving a smile. Before the other two could answer, the Scout leaned on the counter and gave the girl a shining smile.

"Hello to you! So I's was wonderin' if you could help me…by telling me the name of da beautiful angel before me" the Scout said, giving her a smile that actually shone for a second.

BAM!

The Scout fell to the floor, his face in a confused swirl and a huge bump on his head. Everyone looked to see Naruto with his right hand out in a downward fist. He had a tick mark and irritated look on his face. He then turned to the girl and spoke.

"Sorry about my brother. He can be a little too up and personal sometimes." Naruto said as he gave the Scout a kick to the head and a bow of apology to the girl. "Anyway, we have some stuff to get, but I was wondering if I could talk to your dad if he's here?"

The girl blinked before she spoke again. "You want to see my dad? Alright. I'll go get him." She then turned and went through the doorway behind her. The two in the store (the third currently unconscious) heard muttering behind the doorway. There was silence for a few moments before the girl returned to the counter with the councilman they had seen in the meeting. He was now sweaty and covered in slight grease. When he saw them, he smiled widely and laughed a little.

"Ah, Mr. Conagher! It's good to see you! When my daughter described your appearance, I realized there could only be a couple people dressed like you! And hello to you as well Naruto!" the shop owner said as he welcomed them. Engineer and Naruto greeted back, and then the man continued. "So how can I help you fine men today?"

"Well Mr. Higarashi, I've been workin' on some things, and I'm runnin' outta supplies. Would you happen to carry any scrap metal?" the Engineer asked. The man lifted an eyebrows before he replied.

"Sure, I got some of crates in the back. Why do you need them?" the man asked.

"I would answer ya, but it's a secret, and I'm kinda hopin' you'd please respect that. Also, y'all don't need to worry, what I'm buildin' is perfectly safe." The Enginner replied. The shop owner seemed to think about it for a moment, before he shrugged.

"Alright, I'll respect that. So how many crates do you need?" the man asked.

"How much you got?" the Engineer asked. The man looked through a list of supplies on the counter before he looked up and said, "We have 50 crates, and their pretty heavy, about 50 pounds each, 10,000 ryo per crate."

The Engineer smiled as he pulled out his wallet. "I'll take 20 then. You mind if I come for them later? I'll need some help getting' em to the apartment." He said. He chuckled as he watched the shop owner's jaw and his daughter's jaw fall open.

"T-twenty? Damn, this must be big. And yeah, you can come for them later. So, that will be 500,000 ryo." The shop owner stammered, surprised at the amount. He went even more slack-jawed when the Engineer pulled out 3,000,000 ryo.

"Alrighty. Here, keep the change. Think of it as an advance payment o' sorts." The Engineer said as he handed the man the money. The man went wide-eyed before he gave the money to his daughter, who put it in the register. Then realization hit him.

"Wait, what's the other job?" the owner asked. The Engineer looked around to check for any listeners, then spoke to the man.

"It's a special one. My fellows an' I, even Naruto here, use special weapons with special ammunition. If we gave ya some samples of the ammo, would you make a couple crates of em?" the Engineer asked. The man seemed to think about it for a minute, and then he spoke again with a smile.

"I'd be more than happy to. I'm thinking me and the others in the council owe you and your friends big time for that meeting years ago. Got rid of them corrupt council members." The man said. The Engineer smiled a huge smile.

"Was more than happy too. Those fellas were a bunch of rude and corrupt ingrates to be'in with. So it was no problem Mr. Higarashi." The Engineer said as he turned to walk out the store with Naruto, who was pulling along an unconscious Scout. Before he got out the door however, he quickly turned back to the two. "Oh yeah!" he said. The two at the counter looked at him.

"…thank you. For lookin' after my son all those years ago." Engineer said. The man gave a small smile in return.

"It was no problem at all. He is a hero after all. And please, call me Ikiteru. This is my daughter Tenten." Ikiteru said. The Engineer nodded, before he and Naruto, along with the comatose Scout left the store. Tenten looked to her father.

"Hey tou-san, who were those guys anyway?" Tenten asked. Ikiteru smiled before he ruffled her hair.

"Well Tenten, those two were the future of these people." Ikiteru said with a smile. Tenten, who got confused by his non-direct answer, simply groaned and went into the back room. Ikiteru laughed a little before he started to wait at the counter, ready for the next customers.

The Engineer, Naruto, and the now conscious Scout were now walking back to their new home. After the orders they put in, they got a message that everyone was done shopping, and the Medic had reappeared with the others. So they were heading home to meet everyone again.

As they walked, Naruto got a strange feeling to duck. He was glad he did, for when he ducked, a large rock flew over his head, and landing on the ground with loud thuds before it stopped skidding. Engineer, Scout and Naruto looked at it with wide eyes. If it had hit him, then he would have been really injured. They turned behind them to see who threw it, and were very pissed to see the perpetrator.

It was none other than Sasuke Uchiha, who had a pissed expression. Behind him was Sakura Haruno, glaring at the three of them. Behind those two were at least five or six thugs with numerous small weapons.

"Hey! What the crap was that numb-nuts?" the Scout yelled, clenching his fists.

"HEY! DON'T TALK TO SASUKE-KUN LIKE THAT YOU BAKA!" Sakura yelled, making many people watching clench their ears in pain. She stopped as she saw the death glare she got from the Scout.

"Y'know, I ain't afraid a' beatin' the crap outta a girl" the Scout said menacingly. Sakura gulped before she stepped back slightly. The Scout then looked at Sasuke. "Anyways, what's got your panties in a bunch Uchiha?" he asked. This got some gasps from the watching crowd, and a snicker or two. Sasuke grinded his teeth as he looked at the three.

"That dobe embarrassed me, killed my honor, and got me watched by ANBU for the rest of my life! I'm an Uchiha! An elite like me doesn't deserve such punishments. So, I'm going to make you pay." Sasuke said, his grin now getting huge. The three simply glared as they pulled out a weapon. The Scout his bat and Naruto a wrench from his belt. The Engineer simply pulled off his glove, getting looks of shock and multiple gasps at his mechanical hand.

"Well let me tell ya somethin' boy," the Engineer said as he flexed his mechanical hand. "You threaten my son, you threaten my family. You threaten my family, you threaten me." He grabbed a weird handle on the hand, getting a tight grip on it.

"HA! Too bad you'll be dead before you can!" a thug yelled, running forward with a thick machete. The Engineer seeing this gave a small, grim smile as he pulled the handle. It went out, showing some sort of cord going into the hand. It gave a loud whir as he pulled it. When he let go of it, it snapped back into the metal hand, and loud noises came from it. The fingers stiffened, then flexed back flat, before they started to spin. Soon they picked up speed, before it was now a whirring blade.

The thug simply ignored it as he sped forward, getting ready to swing his machete downward. As he got to Engineer and swung upward for a downward strike, the Engineer swung forward with his blade of a hand. The thug stopped with a loud cough, blood flying out of his mouth as the blade spun widely, making blood and small organ bits fly out of his stomach. It spun more, and the man opened his mouth in a silent scream…

…before he simply exploded. The ripping apart of his body was heard, his limbs and organs flying in multiple directions. A wave of blood went in many directions, most of it covering the lower front of the Engineer. As the hand stopped spinning, everyone except Scout and Naruto paled as they saw the thugs cut up stomach still attached to the hand. The Engineer simply pulled it off, it making a loud splat on the ground. He looked up with a dark face to see multiple reactions from the viewers. Horror, disgust, shock. He turned to the Uchiha, and was slightly satisfied to see their reactions.

The thugs had all dropped their weapons, their faces in pure shock. Sasuke had paled considerably and had a look of horror on his face. Sakura had simply run to her left and threw up into a garbage can. Satisfied, he put his hand back on the handle, making everyone flinch. He smiled darkly as he looked at them.

"Now, you see my point. Now which one a' you fellas want tah mess with my family?" the Engineer asked as he seemed ready to pull it again. His answer was the thugs turning and dashing away so fast that you barely saw it in a blink. He put his hand down, and looked at the Uchiha. He walked forward, and grabbed him by the collar with his non-bloody hand. He lifted him up, making him look him in the eye. "Now listen up you little punk. The next time this happens, you won't have nobody to save you. And you can bet the council won't stop me form rippin' ya limb from limb. Ya got me partner?" he asked the scared Uchiha.

Sasuke could only shake his head in fear, one thought going through his mind. 'Oh my god. He-he…that tone…the lack of remorse…it's just like Itachi.' He thought as he was thrown unceremoniously. He looked up, and to his horror didn't see a man. He saw a demon in human clothes, covered head to toe in blood. His next words made fear go into him like the night of his family's massacre.

"Run." The Engineer simply said. That was all the incentive he need as he and Sakura bolted down the street, leaving behind a trail of dust. The Engineer simply nodded as he picked his glove up from the ground.

"Damn tou-san!" he heard a voice say. He turned to see Naruto with an irritated face. "Do you know how long it takes to clean that thing after you do that? And wasn't that a little overkill?" he asked. The Engineer simply shook his head.

"Nope. Had to get my point across. Besides…" the Engineer said smiling. "We'll have one hell o'va story when we get home. Naruto simply looked sweat dropped before he smiled slightly.

"Alright. Now let's go home. I'm wanna see what everyone did with the place!" Naruto yelled as he turned around and headed back in the direction they were originally going. The Engineer simply shrugged as he walked on, the Scout next to him.

"Hey Engie," the Scout said, getting Engineer's attention. "How you think this is gonna play out?" The Engineer seemed to think for a second before he answered.

"I think…" Engineer said "That Pyro will be keeping her promise to the Uchiha." Both shuddered at the thought, then continued on, noticing they were falling behind.

About ten minutes later, they arrived at the complex, heading up the stairs before they opened the door. They walked in, and were surprised at what they saw. The place had been totally revamped from when they saw it hours ago. The dull walls from before had been painted a light blue, giving the room some more happiness. The scratchy carpet had removed, now replaced with shining wooden floorboards. The old broken lights were now gone, replaced with real lights that shone brightly. They walked in more, looking to see what was new.

The living room was separated from the floorboards, as seen with the white fluffy carpet that occupied it. In it was a huge combination of white, black and blue couches, going from three seaters to a huge white corner couch that could probably fit Heavy, and four more people. In the middle of the room was a large wooden coffee table with some papers on it. In front of it was a huge 100 inch TV*, sitting there as if waiting for someone to turn it on.

The old kitchen was now replaced, showing a shining new one. The space in it was now large because of the human bulldozer, as seen with the large ten seat table in the middle of the kitchen. It was surrounded by numerous smooth black counter top counters, with garbage disposal and two dishwashers in a few of them. In between two counters was a large oven, with numerous burners on top of it. On the other side of the kitchen was a fridge, easily three times the size of the one previously there, and having two doors and three drawers.

The three were in awe. The dumpy old apartment form before had turned into the pad of a noble. Their thoughts however, were interrupted with a loud shout.

"HOLY DOLEY!" the voice said. All three turned away from the kitchen to see the Sniper, his eyes out of his head. They looked at where he was staring, and all groaned. They had forgotten about the blood. Before they could say anything however, they heard a large number of footsteps. The rest of the BLUs, minus the Pyro, came running in from behind Sniper, hearing a cry. They all went slack-jawed at the blood on him.

The Engineer held up his hand, stopping them from talking. "Now hold up. So y'all don't freak. None a' this is my blood. It's some thug's that tried to beat me down." The Engineer said. The BLUs seemed to relax at this, before the Demoman spoke up.

"Well then Engie? Why'd he attack ye?" he asked. They all noticed that the Engineer's fists suddenly gripped harshly.

"That damn Uchiha kid." Was all he said. This got multiple angry looks from the BLUs. "He hired them thugs to get at Naruto for 'besmirching his honor'." He said, making air quotes at besmirching. This got a snort from the Heavy.

"HA! Doubt little baby man even had honor." The Heavy said. This got some nods before the Spy's voice came up.

"Well what are we going to do? The boy is becoming a problem." He said, adjusting his tie.

"We'll take care of it when that comes 'round. First I gotta take a damn shower." The Engineer said, taking his hard hat off and putting in on a hat stand by the door. He seemed to hesitate for a minute, not remembering where the bathroom was. The BLUs, except Naruto and Scout, pointed to a hallway that was a few feet from the living room. The Engineer nodded before he headed there. He opened the door, and before he closed it, they could hear, "Damn it's big in 'ere!"

As Naruto turned back to the others, he heard light footsteps from behind him. He turned to see what could be described as a goddess. She had hair as white as snow, it flowing down to her middle back. She had tan skin, as shown over her body. Her eyes were the interesting thing, shining a brilliant purple, and she had slight dirt on her face. She stood at 5'10, wearing a blue tank top with denim Capri's, and on her feet were black flops.

Naruto simply blinked before he smiled and said, "Hi kaa-san." His response was a bump on the head. He yelled, gripping his head in pain. He looked up to see an angry face on the Pyro's face. "Why'd you hit me?" he asked with curiosity. The Pyro put her hands on her hip's looking at Naruto.

"Because you need to be more careful," she said as she dropped her hands. She gave him a look that still had anger in it, but held some worry. "Even if you weren't hurt this time, what about the next? You have to watch out, especially with that stupid Uchiha running around." She said the Uchiha part with hate, pulling her axe out of nowhere. She was stopped with a hand on hers. She looked down to see Naruto looking at her with a small smile.

"I'm sorry kaa-san. I promise that I'll be more careful. But, please don't go slicing and dicing him…yet. Pleeaasssee?" he asked, giving her a look that she couldn't resist.

'Damn! Puppy dog eyes!" she thought, before she sighed and relented. She somehow made the axe disappear, before giving Naruto a smile. "Alright, I forgive you. Now, help set up this place. We're not done yet, and I saved your room and the game room just for you to do."

"Alright!" he yelled before he ran down the hall, heading into his now claimed room. As the door shut, the BLUs could hear, "Damn it's big in here!" They all chuckled before they headed back into the numerous rooms.

Hours later, everything was done. The old ratty apartment was now a full out bachelor pad. There was now a huge kitchen, a huge living room, a recreation room (with games, darts, pool and DDR) made by Naruto, three different bathrooms, a small library with scrolls and books brought from outside Fire Country, and ten bedrooms for the family with three spare bedrooms. By the time everything was done, it was six o'clock. They had all cleaned up, and were not sitting in the living room, most of them dressed more relaxed.

**The Spy had removed his jacket and gloves, his sleeves rolled up to his elbows. The Sniper had taken off his sling and vest, leaving his blue shirt and white undershirt. The Medic had taken his lab coat, gloves, and tank off. He had placed his baggy pants with comfortable pants, but left the boots. The Heavy had taken off his bandolier and vest, leaving his normal shirt. Pyro was dressed as before, except now she was clean. Demoman had completely changed, taking off everything except his beanie and eyepatch. He now wore a simple blue t-shirt with blue pants and his boots. The Scout had taken off his bat bag and headset, and his cleats were replaced with sneakers.**

The most surprising change was the Soldier and Engineer. The Soldier had kept his boots and combat pants, but had taken off his army jacket, grenade belt, ammo belt and helmet. He had a military buzzed head with light brown hair, and had war veteran eyes. He now had a plain white armless tee with a globe surrounding an eagle holding an anchor. Under it was a ribbon that said: USMC.

The Engineer had traded out a lot. He had taken off the helmet, goggles, belt, shin guards, and overalls. Now, he had his original shirt on, with nice fitting denim jeans. Without the helmet and goggles, it revealed the Engineer with a buzzed almost bald head and grey eyes.

Naruto was sitting with a new look. With the helmet and goggles gone, his cerulean eyes and blonde hair were visible completely. He was wearing an orange jacket (not the jumpsuit) with a black shirt underneath. Beneath that was pair of jeans with a black belt around them. Like his brother, he wore plain sneakers with white socks.

As they sat around, enjoying their new home, they all heard a loud grumbling noise, one which echoed through the entire home. They were on alert for a minute, before they all realized the source of the grumbling. They were all hungry. After a few chuckles, they started to discuss dinner plans. The Pyro offered to cook, but they politely said no. Whilst her cooking was amazing, they wanted to try something else. The Heavy suggested sanviches, which were immediately turned down. The Scout had no idea how to cook, and Demoman was too drunk to cook. Sniper, Medic and Spy simply didn't want to. It was then Naruto remembered a certain restaurant in the village.

"I got it!" Naruto proclaimed, getting everyone's attention. "I've got the perfect place" He smiled, before running out the door. There was silence, before they all ran after him, with Heavy dragging Demoman by the leg on the floor.

After a couple minutes of running, the finally caught up to Naruto, who was smiling outside a restaurant. The Engineer walked up to him, slightly wheezing from the fast pace they went.

"Son, what in the sam hell was that? Why were you running…so…fast…" the Engineer said, cutting off at the end when he noticed the restaurant. He simply smiled before he chuckled. "Now I see why you were in such a hurry." He turned to the others, and waved them over. "C'mon fellas, your gonna love this." He said, stepping inside with Naruto. They all wondered what he meant until they caught the restaurant name. They all smiled before they walked into the restaurant they remembered from years ago: Ichiraku Ramen.

Soon they were all sitting at the booth, watching the ramen shop owner Teuchi make ramen with his back turned to them.

Teuchi sighed as he made the ramen. It had been years since he had a good customer, and that was Naruto. He had thought he saw him earlier at the meeting, but brushed it off. There were also the men who had adopted him all those years ago. They ate like trucks and had given him enough money to expand the booth to fit more customers. He stirred a little more before he heard the booth flaps open. He heard ten stools creak from weight, and he spoke to them with his back still turned.

"Welcome to Ichiraku Ramen. Sorry for any wait. Business has been slow these last couple years." He said to them. He nearly jumped when he heard a familiar voice.

"That's alright Teuchi-san. It's worth the wait!" the young voice said. Teuchi recognized it. It had been years, but he still recognized it. He turned around, and smiled when he saw Naruto. He smiled bigger when he saw who was with him.

"Naruto! Your back already? It's great to see you again!" Teuchi said with happiness.

"Yep! Got here this morning. Sorry we took so long, but I had to take the Genin Exams and do some shopping. But I'm here now!" Naruto said, smiling his signature foxy grin. Teuchi simply laughed as he wiped a tear from his eye.

"It's no problem. So, what can I get for you and your family?" Teuchi asked. Naruto simply smiled as he answered him enthusiastically.

"I'll take 30 bowls of miso ramen to start off!" Naruto yelled. Teuchi went wide eyed at this.

"30? That's quite a lot!" Teuchi said, still shocked. Naruto laughed at this.

"What can I say Teuchi-san? I haven't had ramen in over seven years. And you should just wait for their orders." Naruto said, pointing to his family. They all smiled, and Teuchi had a feeling it would be a long night.

Over two hours later, the BLU family walked out of Ichiraku, completely full of ramen. Back in the restaurant, Teuchi was crying in happiness. Why? Because the orders he gave tonight were absolutely insane, but worth it. Naruto started off with his 30, and then ate 10 more. The Soldier had eaten 17 bowls of beef ramen. Scout had 19 bowls of pork ramen. Demoman had eaten 21 bowls of beef and pork mixed together. The Medic had three bowls, the Sniper had four bowls, the Pyro had five bowls, and the Spy had two bowls. The most surprising was the Heavy who had eaten over twenty bowls of beef, miso, pork, and surprising to the BLUs, vegetable. Altogether it had been over 191 bowls of ramen. The check had been over 100,000 ryo, an incredibly large amount. But to his even greater shock, the BLUs simply laughed at the check amount and pulled out 1,000,000 ryo. He was pretty sure he had a heart attack when they said he could keep the rest as a tip. Now as he cried in happiness, he could only think of the things he could do with the money.

Back with the BLUs, things were going alright on their walk home. With how they were all treated there, they decided to go back on a couple of occasions, to Naruto's happiness. Their walk was cut short however, as an ANBU appeared before them. He had a dragon mask on.

"Naruto Uzumaki Conagher?" the ANBU asked. Naruto hesitated before he answered. He wasn't quite sure if this was a real ANBU or not. Then he got an idea. He turned to the ANBU and said the following.

"What addition of Icha Icha Paradise does Jiji have in his desk?" Naruto asked. This got some reactions. Pyro to grip her hands, the Spy to blush heavily, and the ANBU to stiffen. There was silence for a moment, then…

"It's Volume Three: Honeymoon addition." The ANBU said. Naruto nodded before he turned to his family.

"It's all good. He's a real ANBU. Only he would know that if he was in the room while Jiji read that stuff." Naruto said. He turned back to the ANBU. "What was your message?"

The ANBU seemed to hesitate, before he answered. "After the events of the Uchiha, the Academy has decided with the Hokage's permission that the rest of the Exam will continue tomorrow." Naruto nodded, understanding.

"Thank you. Please tell Jiji I got the message." Naruto said. As the ANBU was getting ready to leave, he noticed the killer look on his kaa-sans face. He then quickly added, "Oh yeah! And you might want to tell Jiji to be ready, because kaa-sans gonna kick his ass." This got the desired reaction, as Pyro relaxed with a smile. The ANBU simply nodded before he disappeared.

"Well then," the Soldier said. "If your Exam is tomorrow, then we must return to the complex ASAP!" This got nods, and they all headed in the direction of their home. As they walked, Naruto got a nudge from Pyro. He turned, and was slightly scared at the smile she was giving him.

"Honey, how did you know that the Hokage had that addition?" she asked, with a smile that just read death. Naruto, not wanting to die, quickly answered.

"Well, when I was at his desk earlier, I saw that his drawer was slightly open, and that was the addition that was in there." Naruto said, hoping to appease her. Pyro's devil smile relaxed, making Naruto give an inward sigh of relief. Then he realized: Jiji was getting his ass kicked tomorrow.

Soon they all arrived home, entering the huge home before they all headed to their appropriate rooms. Naruto reached his, opening it to reveal how he decorated it. The walls were blue, and the carpet was white, showing the team colors. He had a desk in the corner, which had a lamp, a screwdriver, and numerous papers on it. His bed was the most noticeable thing, since the covers were a bright orange. He soon closed the door, taking of his clothes and changing into his pajamas. They were a simple button-up pajama shirt and pajama pants, both dark blue. He soon flipped the covers, hoping into bed and flipping the covers back onto himself. He lay there for a second, before he cupped his hands and yelled enough for only the house to hear.

"Good night everyone!" he yelled. His reply was numerous good nights back, the most noticeable one being in a loud Russian accent. As the good nights stopped, he clapped his hands twice, making all the lights in his room and the hallway go out. He lay there for a minute or two, before he started to feel the drowsiness of sleep wash over him. As he fell into peaceful slumber, he couldn't help but think of tomorrow.

Tomorrow was the true start of his dream.
