"I'm very sorry, Teuchi-san. I got held up talking to a member of ANBU." Daisuke explains with a bow to the middle-aged man who frowns in consideration and then uncrosses his arms.
"Hm. ANBU, huh? …Well I guess I can't be too upset. It was obviously something important. Just the same, I've got three new orders. They're your last ones for the day, so hurry up and get them done." He orders as Ayame finishes packing up the box.
Nodding, Daisuke straps it on again. "Alright. Thank you, Teuchi-san!" With that, he leaves the restaurant yet again, making quick work of the orders. Upon his return, he finds Naruto there and turns the box in before sitting down to rest. "Hey, Naruto."
Grinning a bit, the blonde just waves. "Hey Daisuke! What's up?"
"I just finished my work shift, that's all. Oh, and looks like Tora escaped Madam Shimi again. I found him running around by the Hokage palace. That reminds me… do you know anyone in Konoha, by chance, that owns a pet rat?"
Frowning alittle, Naruto crooks a brow. "A rat? …No. No one comes to mind… but then I don't really know a lot about a whole lot of people. I guess if I had to think of someone who might actually keep a rat, it could be Shikamaru."
"Well, this one had a bow on it's tail, and I never heard Shikamaru mention anything about a rat… so I don't think so." Daisuke then shrugs a bit with a sigh. "I'm gonna cool out; then I'm gonna see if anyone actually put in a mission request about it."
While Naruto just nods, Daisuke's eyes are drawn to an obvious disguise of someone sneaking up behind the blonde. Frowning gently, he stops and just stares before murmuring. "….hey, Naruto? …behind you…"
Blinking suddenly, the blonde peers thoughtfully for a moment as he turns around to see the poorly disguised Konohamaru attempting to pose as a specials sign in front of the restaurant. Then he looks to the already posted sign and just frowns before pointing out. "You've gotta learn some new tricks, Konohamaru!"
"Heh. This was just for old times!" The brunette calls before throwing his disguise aside and grins a bit more sneakily. "Besides; it was just a diversion!" He calls as another Konohamaru uses Daisuke as a jumping horse and pole-vaults over him, calling out as he flies, arms out, towards the blue eyed blonde.
"What the-!" Daisuke calls out as he attempts to duck, far too late and Naruto quickly tumbles back from the stool in front of the ramen shop, rolling onto his shoulders and using both feet to kick the second shinobi away. Almost instantly, Teuchi slams his ladle down on the counter.
"Hey! Get outta my shop with that!"
Jumping back fearfully, the first Konohamaru turns to look at his other self; twitching on the ground just so far away. "Whoa… He's knocked out, huh…?" Then, turning back to Teuchi, he bows a few times. "Sorry, Teuchi! It's a ninja thing… heheheh…"
"Hmph. I know, I know! Naruto, you shoulda just took the hit! It's not like it woulda hurt!" The older man scolds making the blonde gack slack jawed at the ramen chef.
"Whaaaaat!"
Meanwhile, Daisuke just chuckles before glancing to the younger ninja then asking of his blonde colleague. "Who's this anyway, Naruto? Your minion?"
"Minion..? No! I'm Konohamaru! Honorable grandson of the third Hokage and…uh…" Counting on his fingers, the young ninja begins to mutter to himself. "…Tsunade was the fifth…that new chick's gonna be the sixth…so… if Chief is gonna be seventh, I'll be…" He then calls out, putting up a big thumbs up and a smile. "And the eighth Hokage!"
Blinking a few times, Daisuke then raises his brows while scratching his head. "Wow, so you guys have just got it all planned out… So, what? When Naruto is fifty and you're forty-five you'll just take over or something?"
"Uh… y'know… come to think of it… I don't think we ever figured out those kinda details, huh Konohamaru?" Naruto asks thoughtfully.
Seeming thoughtful as well, the young brunette then snaps his fingers. "You said that girl said she doesn't even wanna-"
Thumping the brunette quickly, Naruto blinks and raises his brows when the clone vanishes in a cloud. "Oh right… that wasn't the real one…"
"You had a definite blonde moment, Naruto. Of course he's the clone. You can't knock a shadow unconscious!" Daisuke points out to the other brunette still twitching in the street.
"Oh, well, either way I didn't want him saying something like that in public." The blue eyed shinobi infers knowingly.
Nodding a bit, Daisuke sighs and frowns. "I hate politics… I'd never wanna be a Kage if this is what I'd have to go through… much respect for the ones who can handle it."
Chuckling slightly, Naruto shrugs. "I used to think that if I were to become Hokage, everyone in the village would have to respect and acknowledge me… I guess that's not really the case."
"Yeah." Daisuke nods and then slips from his chair to walk over and nudge the other Konohamaru a few times. "Hey! Kid!"
Grumbling as he rubs his head and moves to sit up, muttering gently. "…Wh-what I meant was, uh…you know… eventually…and stuff… You'll definitely be Hokage by the time you're twenty, Boss! You be Hokage until you're like forty and you can give it to me, since I'll be like…uh…thirty-five or something… And then, I'll stay Hokage until I'l like fifty-five and then, I'll pick someone! We'll kinda be like the first and the second!"
Blinking a few times, Naruto nods slowly while rubbing his chin. "I… guess that sounds good… sure… Oh, Konohamaru, guess what?" Grinning broadly Naruto pumps his fist. "I found out something about my dad… He was the forth Hokage-ttebayo!"
"Whoa! Naruto, that's awesome!" The brunette calls, jumping up and pumping a fist as well. "See! It's like we were both destined by lineage to be Hokage's!"
The blonde nods sagely but then blinks and seems thoughtful before asking. "Oh, hey! Do you know anyone who keeps a rat as a pet? Daisuke said that he caught Tora chasing a rat wearing a bow…"
Becoming thoughtful, Konohamaru offers. "Well… Udon's sister feeds a white rat… Kinda freaks us all out, though. We keep telling her it might bring more rats to Konoha and be all…disease infested… But she won't listen. You'd think someone in Udon's family would be concerned with disease…."
"Hmm. This was definitely a white rat… might be the same one." Daisuke nods while crossing his arms. "You shouldn't be worried, though. Rats don't usually carry disease. Mice are worse… and more prone to bite."
"But I never heard about mice biting people and making people sick… I heard it about rats. Like the plague." He answers simply, shaking his head.
"Rats get sick like that because of people." Daisuke explains, shaking his head. "They're actually cleaner, and more intelligent than mice. Shoot, some ninja families use rats as little spies…" Shrugging a little, the older brunette sighs. "Don't believe everything someone tells you; you should be smart enough to learn things for yourself."
Blinking before frowning deeply in slight offense, the younger brunette then calls out as he forms a single hand sign, a puff of smoke encircling him and leaving behind an attractive young brunette with long, brown hair; completely nude. She winks at him, making a soft, sweet, sensual sound and a kissy face as she raises one hand up to touch her head, revealing herself more.
His eyes widening, Daisuke's jaw drops as he backs up a few steps, covering his face with one hand. "Wh-what the hell?"
"Looks like you pissed him off.. Wow, you took that technique pretty well, Daisuke." Naruto chuckles.
After the stuff I remembered an hour ago… one naked girl is not gonna phase me much… "Uh… y-yeah…?"
"Maybe he's Yaoi…" Konohamaru, in the guise of the brunette woman offers, raising her brows as she leans forward, seeming unbothered by her nudity.
Flashing Konohamaru a sharp, typically Uchiha look, Daisuke just grunts. "Hell no." Sniffing once he then scoffs somewhat arrogantly. "I just only go for serious hotties." Then he clears his throat and nods before suddenly gaining a sly grin and offering. "You wanna see that technique really do some damage? Why don't I take you to Sasuke so you can try it on him."
"Whoa, Sasuke? Yeah, right… that'll never work…" Naruto scoffs. "He's told me before a few times that my Sexy Technique is useless!"
"Hmm… you just don't give it the right 'motivation'. I bet Konohamaru can do it." Daisuke nods a few times.
"Hrm… You're on!" Naruto boasts making Daisuke blink and slowly sweatdrop.
Uh… crap, I wasn't serious… what's he gonna wager…?
"Let's see… if you can make Sasuke nosebleed, even a little…" Naruto starts thoughtfully.
"If Naruto wins, you get to go out on a date with Mitsuki; including a kiss in front of him!" Konohamaru states boldly, brimming with confidence for his mentor.
Raising his brows, Daisuke just stares and then slowly looks off as he starts to blush while Naruto grips a fist in Konohamaru's face. "What the hell! What do you mean 'if I win'? How does he get something of mine if he loses!"
"….heads I win, tails you lose…" Daisuke mutters with a chuckle. "But either way, I have to decline that since I have a girlfriend also…"
"Wh-what does it matter..? You're not gonna lose anyway…" The youngest brunette whimpers, putting his hands up in defense against the taller blonde.
"Hmmm.." Closing his eyes thoughtfully and rubbing his chin, Daisuke then nods. "I know. If Naruto wins, I'll get him something special… and private… from Rinsu's dresser…"
His eyes suddenly widening and his jaw dropping, Naruto stands and jabs an excited fist. "YOU'RE ON!"
Luckly she's not home often, so there's not a huge chance of her catching me if I lose… but… I'm pretty sure I've got Sasuke's number on this one… "Alright. Konohamaru will be the one to use the technique, that still gives you guys kind of the upper hand… What do you think? We'll each make suggestions about how he should use it and the one that actually wins will….be… the winner…" The older brunette offers with a blink. I kinda ran outta steam on that one.
