Yomo immediately opened the door to see Naruto on the floor backing away against the mirror. A worried look was evident on Naruto's face. It was if he saw a ghost. He heard a pair of footsteps running down the stairs. It seemed the girlish scream awoke Touka. If he didn't know any better he would think that Hinami got severely injured. Yet this… what he assumed teen. Let out one of the most girlish screams he'd ever heard. His thoughts of the blonde possessing any skill immediately disappeared.

"What's wrong!" Touka yelled in a panic tone as she shoved him lightly to see what was going on. Her kakuja active in case of intruders. All her worries disappeared after seeing the blonde in the bathroom. She assumed something happened to Hinami due to the girlish scream. Her panic turned into slight rage as she realized this teen she barely knew woke her up, and possibly the entire household over nothing.

"What the hell is wrong with you! Do you know how early it is!" she lectured the blond. However the blonde stayed in his fetal position, and acted if he hadn't heard her. It only made her even more mad. "Oi! Did you hear me!" Touka yelled out just above a whisper.

A pair of brown eyes that belonged to a fourteen year old girl could be seen at the base of the steps. She was the one who found the teen, and after the high pitched scream woke her up, she decide to investigate what it was. Her confusion only grew when she heard the voice of her elder sister angrily speaking to someone.

Naruto was in his own thoughts. What he saw caused him to panic. There was no possible way he had that eye. It just wasn't possible. The only other person with that eye was… Sasuke. A flash of memories went through his mind. It wasn't any that he could remember, and that's when it hit weren't his memories… they were Sasuke's. As he went through the memories he saw everything that Sasuke went through. His life, his struggle, his pain. It made Naruto want to connect even more to his best friend. When the memories finally stopped he felt a wave of sorrow hit him. He was still very confused on where he was, and more specifically how he got his best friend's eye. Deciding to dig further into the memories, he found it. Sasuke had knocked him out, and asked Sakura to transplant his left eye into him. Once Sakura took out the rinnegan the memories ended. Naruto could give a pretty good assumption to what had happened after that.

Sasuke sacrificed his powers he gained from the Grand Jiji, so he could easily put him back in place. Sasuke gave him the Rinnegan. It brought a tear to his eye, but something troubled him. He knew that if he was in his world than he would be waking up to Sakura, Sasuke, and Kakashi-sensei. He was able to sense the surrounding location and there was plenty of people around. That wasn't possible. They hadn't released the Infinite Tsukuyomi, and yet there was so much life. Barley any nature, but it was clear to the blond that a lot of people lived here.

"Look at me when I ta-" Touka's yelling was cut off by Naruto's emotionless voice, which caused her to silent up. She knew that voice all to well. It was just like hers, when she was in her teens. Void of emotion. However, she lost that voice after Yoshimura.

"Tell me… do you know where Konoha is?" His hair was overshadowing his eyes. Making his facial expression unknown to the three. The three stood there for a brief moment.

"No." Yomo's voice cut through the silence.

"I see… could you tell me where we are?" he spoke in the same tone. However this time they were able to see a lone tear make its way onto the floor.

"We're in the 20th ward of Tokyo." Yomo once again answered. The answer caused the blonde to grit his teeth. Tears formed in Naruto's eyes before they came out in constant waves. The answer was all he needed to know that he wasn't home. Tears started hitting the floor, which was seen by everyone. Instead of the same anger she felt before, Touka felt as if she could understand the blonde. Clearly what the blonde went through was similar if not the same as what they did.

"Anoue mister" Hinami's voice could be heard behind them. Both Yomo and Touka turned towards her after hearing her voice, "what's your name sir? My name's Hinami!" She spoke happily as she gave the blonde a smile. Instead of an answer, the blonde stood up and walked past the two. He made his way towards Hinami, which caused Touka to tense slightly. However it faded as the blonde simply walked past Hinami. He made his way upstairs and the sound of a door closing could be heard. Touka didn't get mad that he ignored Hinami. No, not at all. She was going to question him tomorrow, and if he didn't answer them he would have something else to cry about. "Hinami" her voice resounded throughout the room getting the girls attention, "go back to bed."

Without wasting a second the girl ran upstairs to her room. Once again closing her door and went to sleep. Touka gave Yomo a look before he nodded, which she then went to her own room to rest.

Morning

It was about eleven in the morning. At the little dining table three people could be seen. Two of them were drinking coffee, while the other had a glass of water. They were currently waiting for their blond haired enigma to wake up. They were also currently waiting for the arrival of Nishiki. After all they had to get the shop set up soon, or else their very small amount of money will turn into nothing. The front door could be hear being opened.

"Mornin!" the tired voice of Nishiki could be heard. Letting out a loud yawn had made it clear to the group of ghouls that he was still in the early stages of being fully awake. Making his way towards the table he had realized something was wrong by the looks on their face. Opening his mouth, he was interrupted by the sound of footsteps making their way down the steps.

'He's awake already?!' Nishiki thought shocked.

Naruto stood there at the bottom of the stairs looking at the group as they also looked upon him. Both parties observing each other. The first thing they realized about Naruto was that he was wearing a black shirt with a strange symbol that resembled fire. He wore orange sweatpants that ended half way down his calves. It was strange. They didn't give him that those clothes, and they had never seen someone dress like that. So how had the blond gotten another set of clothes? He clearly got it somewhere, yet... the question was where? Another thing they took note of was the bandage covering his left didn't seem damaged when they first saw him, but than again they hadn't exactly opened his eye lid. He also adorned what appeared to be a necklace with a green crystal. What shocked them though was the what seemed to be whisker marks on his had stars in her eyes, and her intentions with them was all over her face. He had the bluest eye that twinkled everytime they looked at it. It was rare to see someone with those eyes who wasn't a child that wasn't exposed to the world. Other than that all signs of injury seemed to be… gone. Maybe he was a ghoul, but than his arm would be back to.

Naruto analyzed the people in front of him. This time there were four people instead of the three he met last night, during his bathroom scene. Right now he didn't care for their intentions, but instead wanted to know where he was. He had never heard of a place called 'Tokyo', or even the '20th ward'. It all just confused Naruto even more, and caused him to come to the same conclusion. It wasn't a conclusion that Naruto liked, but he knew no matter what he would endure it. He looked at the four before him. They were obviously trying to figure him out, and the younger girl had stars in her eyes when she looked at his birthmarks. Why does everyone think there whiskers? People have asked him on multiple occasions if they can scratch them to see if he would purr, but everytime he would deny them the chance. He would always get nervous, and defensive when someone asked. Come on! He's a man not a cat for kami's sake! Another thing he picked up was that they were wary around him. He couldn't blame them, after all he was an unknown to them. There was the little girl who seemed to be around fourteen, who had brown hair and brown eyes. She sported a smile on her face, which was directed at him. However he hadn't returned it. The next one was the man he met in the basement. The silent one as Naruto dubbed him. Next was the new man Naruto hadn't seen before. The man had glasses and messy hazelnut hair and eyes. He wore clothes that Naruto had never seen before. All of them were. Finally, there was the purple haired girl. Her hair was in a bob cut, where her hair reached down to her chin, causing the right side of her face to be covered. He had no idea who these people were, but they saved him. They had his appreciation for that, but now was the time to find the answers to his questions. Making his way towards the dining table he stopped a few feet away from them.

"Thank you for saving me!" he all but yelled as he bowed his head. A sweat drop was formed on the four ghouls. The tension between the group and Naruto was instantly gone. They weren't expecting that. The way the blonde was acting; that was actually the last thing they were expecting. They expected him to barge in demanding answers, and not even thank them for saving him.

"Don't worry about it blond-san." Nishiki spoke as he waved him off as he regained his bearing. He was still weary about the blond, but after witnessing that… there was no way this guy could be a threat to them. Naruto instantly perked his head up with his twinkling eye. He let out a small smile before taking a seat in one of the chairs.

Once again there was a silence between the two. Surprisingly it was Hinami who broke it.

"Anoue… i'm sorry to ask Mr. but what's your name?" Hinami asked with the same happy expression as before.

Naruto seeing this gave out his own smile before answering, "My name's Naruto, Uzumaki Naruto at your service, dattebayo!" He replied with the same enthusiasm as Hinami. The little girl just smiled even more at this. The idea of the blond being a threat was still there, but seeing his interaction with Hinami brought a small smile to Touka's face. She hadn't seen Hanami this happy since… since… since Kaneki.

"So, what are you Naruto-san?" Nishiki asked clearly wanting to get straight to the point.. It was clearly a question, but it held a lot of meaning to it.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Naruto asked confused.

Nishiki's face turned serious instantly, "I'm asking if you're a human or a ghoul? There's nothing much to it." He spoke with a dangerous tone. Naruto didn't like that tone. It was obviously a threat depending on his answer.

'The hell's a ghoul?' Naruto thought. Back in the Elemental Nations they had never had such a word. The way the chestnut haired guy spoke made it clear to him the two sides didn't really like each other that much. It seemed that this world was also consumed by the cycle of hatred.

"What's a ghoul?" he asked innocently. Clearly Naruto didn't know what a ghoul was. It caused their eyes to widen slightly. Had he been living under a rock his entire life? Almost everyone knew of the existence of ghouls, yet this teen clearly didn't.

"How do you not know what a ghoul is?" Nishiki asked a bit annoyed. He had to be playing with them! There was no possible way he doesn't know. It made him grit his teeth just thinking about it. This guy wasn't going to act clueless about their existence!

"Stop lying!" Nishiki spoke with silent rage, "Don't act like you don't know!" he all but yelled at Naruto. He slammed his hand on the table as he did, and at that moment Naruto knew everything. They were these so called ghouls. Closing his eyes, Naruto gained a peaceful smile on his face, and waited for Nishiki to calm down. Once he did he opened his eyes again and spoke, "I have no idea what a ghoul is, but from your little outburst it's clear to me you're all 'ghouls'." His statement brought a sudden shocked reaction out of all of them. They were surprised that he got that much from Ginshi's outburst, "but I don't care if you are. Honesty you guys saved my life, so you have my gratitude," His words soothed the group but they were still on edge, "Now… could one of you tell me a bit about where I am?" he spoke innocently. It made them grow a mental sweat drop with the same thought in mind, 'He can't be serious.' However when they looked at him they realized he was being completely serious, 'He's serious!'

"What do you mean Naruto-san?" Hinami asked confused by his phrasing.

"Please don't add the -san. I'm not one for formalities, and what I mean is… I have no idea where I am." he spoke with a cheerful smile.

"What?" was the only thing Hinami could respond with. She was still very confused.

"Eh? Do you really want me to spell it out for you?"

The others were also confused by his phrasing. By the way he talked he acted as if he wasn't from this world. That was outrageous. There's no way a man, yet alone this simple teen could be from another world.

Naruto seeing their confused gazes decided to speak up again, "Well could you guys tell me more about what's going on and stuff? Like the general information? Especially what a ghoul is. I've never heard of those." he spoke with the same cheerfulness still in his voice.

The three looked at each other with unease. If word got around that they were ghouls they were done for. It was bad enough that the CCG already knew of Hinami's origin.

"A ghoul is a carnivorous and cannibalistic species who are only able to feed of off humans and other ghouls" Touka started as Naruto's eyes widened at the statement, "They're almost like a human in appearance, but we have a different inner biology than them. We have what is called a kakuja, where our pupils turn red and our sclera turns pure black. When that is active than a ghouls kagune can come out. There's four different types of kagunes a ghoul could have. The Ukaku, Kakaku, Rinkaku, and Bikaku. Each one having its own benefits, and advantageous over the other." she stopped as she looked at Naruto to see if he was listening. He had his eyes closed, but seemed to be very intrigued. It seemed he was taking in the information and dissecting it. "Unlike humans us ghouls don't have to eat every day, but instead have to eat a body at least one or every two months. We can't eat human food, or else it'll make us sick. Due to our predatory nature there are humans who hunt and kill ghouls. Due to our enhanced physical traits they use what is known as a quinque. It's a weapon that was made from ghoul's kakuhou."

He nodded at this. It confirmed his thoughts of this world being in the same cycle of hatred as his. However unlike his world it seemed to be the nature of things. Where in his world wars were started out of greed and revenge. Hopefully they find a way to release the Infinite Tsukuyomi back home, or else his world was done for if he couldn't find a way back.

He couldn't blame the ghouls for having to kill. After All, it's the only way they can survive, so their killings could be justified. However, It seemed the humans in this world didn't see it that way. Itachi's words hit him like a brick. It was the words of his best friend Shisui's, 'I don't know if there is such a thing as justice in the shinobi world. We fight believing in our own justice. But if the enemy's doing the same thing, who's right?' The words was something Naruto always took to heart. 'I guess it's there way of justice. You can't blame the ghouls for having to kill, but at the same time you can't blame the humans for wanting to protect themselves.' Naruto thought.

Opening his eye he looked at Touka, and what he said next shocked all of them. They were expecting him to freak out, but no. He sat there with a smile on his face and spoke.

"Your secret is safe with me. You can't blame someone for trying to survive." he gave out a small chuckle, "I know I would do the same thing if I was in your shoes, and I know how it feels to be looked upon as a monster. As long as you don't kill for fun you're A.O.K. in my book." he spoke in a warm tone. A smile plastered on his face the whole time.

It seemed that he was different. Instead of seeing a monster all he saw was another living being trying to survive. How could someone have a mindset like that in this world. They were once again cut out of their musings by Naruto.

"After all I guess ghouls and I aren't so different. If people find out about my abilities, I wouldn't know what they would do to obtain my power for their own use or to kill me." He spoke with a sad smile.

"What do you mean?" Yomo spoke out in a cautious tone. The blond was still an unknown to them.

"Well you see Yomo-san, I believe it is. I guess the only real conclusion I can draw up is that... " he paused as he scratched the back of his head with a smile on his face, "i'm from a different world."

Once again their eyes widened. A person from a different world? That's impossible isn't it?

Hinami's eyes widened and twinkled like the star. A flashback of seeing the 'shooting star' come crashing into the ground. It wasn't a star she realized. It was Naruto.

"You were the star" Hinami spoke in awe.

"I guess I was." Naruto said as he let out a chuckle.

The others were still trying to process what Naruto said. They were in denial. There was no proof that he was, and there was no way he could show them. That was until they realized he mentioned something about his power. The blond was clearly delusional, and Nishiki couldn't help but start laughing. The laughter only increased before he started banging the table.

"AHAHAHA! THAT'S...THAT'S HILARIOUS!"...he spoke in between laughs, "W-what? You think we were born yesterday?" he asked mockingly.

A frown graced Naruto's face. He couldn't blame them for thinking he was lying. After all if a random stranger told him he was from another world, he would probably tell them, 'that's great'. In a world where people can manifest giant ethereal warriors, and a giant orange fox that's the size of a mountain… a person from another world doesn't sound so far fetched. But this wasn't his world.

They were cut out of their thoughts when Yomo decided that enough was enough. He didn't care if the blond was lying or not, he just wanted to know if he was a threat or not. From what he's seen a one armed teen who claims to be from another world isn't a threat at all. In fact it just seemed to be a crazy kid. Maybe he was just collateral damage, and it did some brain damage when he hit the ground.

"Nishiki, Touka, i'm going to go and unload the supplies in the new cafe." Yomo spoke with the same cold-stone face as before.

"Could I come too!" both Hinami and Naruto yelled out with excited expressions. It was if the two could read each other minds. Yomo turned to Touka where she nodded at him, before he turned to Naruto asking him an unspoken question. Naruto realizing this spoke, "It's the least I could do for saving my life. Plus with me there it'll go by quicker." he spoke with the same foxy grin.

Yomo just sighed before he nodded to the blond. Naruto gave out a small victory shout before running out the door. The occupants in the room just stared at his actions dumbfoundedly before Hinami followed suit with Naruto's actions. It seemed Hinami grew a liking to the blond. Once Yomo excited the house he realized Naruto was just standing there. He had a shocked expression on his face, and was clearly amazed by all the new sights before him. It made Yomo wonder just so slightly if Naruto's words held any truth to them. He tapped the blond's shoulder, getting his attention he started walking towards his car.

Naruto was truly amazed. Never in his life did he think he would see something like this. Honestly he was acting like a baby in a candy store. There was so much to do and see in this new world, but he had to find a way back home as soon as possible. From what he understood it seemed that no one used chakra in this world, but that didn't mean they weren't strong. No. From what he understood ghouls could be very powerful, and CCG investigators weren't to be taken lightly either. Yomo had expected the information to make the blond nervy, but Naruto seemed completely care-free. To Naruto it meant that the world had a lot to show him, but more importantly… he had a lot to show the world who Uzumaki Naruto was!. First thing first after he settled into this new world was to check on Kurama… well actually first thing first was to see if they had ramen in this world. Than he can check on the lazy fox. He could sense the fox's presence in him, but it seemed he was still resting from the battle. After that though… he had no clue.

The whole drive Naruto was staring out the windows. He was still in awe at all the the new things he was seeing. Hinami giggled at his expression, but Yomo had his usual stone-cold expression on the whole drive. The world truly fascinated Naruto. Hinami was telling him about how it all worked, like the technology, history, and even the size of the world. It seemed as if she was the only one out of the four who believed him. She even started calling him 'Star-kun' much to his annoyance. He tried to get it changed to anything else but the only other suggestions were 'Sun-kun' or 'Baka'. Clearly he chose the best out of the three. When they finally arrived to the destination Naruto excited the car, and held the door open for Hinami. She gave him a smile before the two of them followed Yamo inside. Inside it was a fairly large cafe. It had boxes all over the place, and it was clearly in need of cleaning due to all the dust.

"So this is your cafe?" Naruto asked.

"Yep!" Hinami replied with joy.

Naruto gave her a wide smile before turning to Yomo. "So are the other two going to come as well?"

Yomo glanced at him before nodding.

"Well where can I start. Let's get this finished before they get here." He spoke with a sincere smile.

"Star-kun are you saying you're going to do everything by yourself?" Hinami asked curiously. Yomo gave a glance towards the two also wondering how he was going to pull that off. He only had one arm, and there were too many things to arrange and set up. All Naruto die was poke her forehead before he looked at Yomo.

"I understand you don't believe what I said but... " he put his hand in a certain position that was unfamiliar with them. Naruto had his middle and index finger out while the other fingers were folded into his hand. Hinami however had her eyes as wide as ever, "let me show you something only people from my world can do." With that what happened next actually shocked them. Hinami's jaw dropped to the floor, and Yomo showed actual emotion for the first time towards Naruto. His eyes were wide open, and his mouth was agape. There standing in front of them wasn't just one Naruto, but twenty.

"Well let's get started." he said as he and the clones went to unpack each and every individual box. Yomo and Hinami stood there watching the clones. He had Hinami direct them to where everything was supposed to go, and she looked as if she was greatly enjoying herself. It brought a small smile to the stoic man's face seeing Hinami like this. To believe some blond would come into their life like this, and make Hinami forget all about their problems. Maybe they could keep the blonde a bit longer. He believed Naruto now. At first he thought he was mentally insane, but after seeing this… it really blew his mind. Looking to his right his eyes widened even more when an image of a smiling Yoshimura appeared next to him. He seemed to be looking at the blond with a smile before turning to him. Like that he was gone; however Yomo couldn't help but hear Yoshimura's philosophy ringing through his mind. If he was here, he would have accepted the blond immediately without a second thought. He would have probably offered him a job as well. At that thought Yomo's eyes barley widened. Closing his eyes a smile crept on his lips. He knew what Yoshimura would do, and he sure as hell was going to keep the old man's dream alive. A place where people could feel safe and cared for. A place where both humans and ghouls could interact with each other without knowing each others true origin. Maybe the blond could help them. Yomo couldn't help but see something in the blond's eye that reminded him so much of his former mentors. That was a desire to help others.

An hour or two later everything was done. What was supposed to take an entire week to finish with four people, was all finished by one person, or twenty of the same person. Everything was just like they envisioned it. He had to thank the blond after this, however he was cut from his thoughts when Naruto spoke to him behind the counter.

"I know it's a start but I promise i'll repay you guys for what you did" he started with a smile, "I hope everything's above your expectations."

Yomo turned to Naruto. That's when he saw it again. The same gleam and smile that Yoshimura had whenever they had helped someone. He saw that Hinami was playing with his clones, since they were just like him. Goofy and fun to be around. He could see the pure happiness in Hinami's eyes. She was bugging him to show her more cool tricks like that, and if Naruto could teach her. Sadly all she got was either a smile or a tease from the clones. It was amusing really. Watching Naruto's clones fight with each other. Even though their words were headed towards someone else they were really at the end insulting themselves.

"Who are you calling a baka! Baka!" One of the clones yelled out getting Yomo's and Naruto's attention.

"You. Who else has that ugly mug of yours." The second Naruto clone responded.

"OI! YOU CAN'T BE TALKING!"

"Oh yeah? Why's that?" The second clone asked again as it poked the first clones chest.

"BECAUSE YOUR ME BAKA!"

"W-WHAT! NO WAY! YOU'RE SO MUCH MORE UGLIER THAN THE REST!" The second clone yelled in shock.

The first clone started producing steam out of its nose and ears before a third clone intervened, "Oh come on you two. Surely we can get along. I mean we're all the same person."

It seemed to calm things down however a fourth clone intervened, "I don't know. The first one does look kinda ugly to me." He spoke as he was rubbing his chin.

"Eh!" The first clone shouted, "You're all just mad that I beat you in poker!" He declared triumpfly.

"No you idiot, that was me remember?" A fifth clone interjected.

Eventually more and more clones started gathering before an all out argument spewed between them. All arguing about who was the winner of their poker tournament, which was originally a game of three.

The real Naruto had a rain cloud above his head while he mulled in the croner.

Yomo seeing that the clones interaction only made Hinami smile even more. It seemed the blond had an affect on people.

Looking at the gloomy blond he grew a barely noticeable smile.

" Thank you… Naruto"

Looking at the man Naruto was surprised, "Eh! So you can show other emotions than your stone cold expression. Honestly Yomo-san if I didn't know any better I would say that you were planning to kill me" Naruto teased in a playful tone. He was again surprised when instead of his face returning back to it's stone-cold expression he let out a chuckle.

"Who knows Naruto. Maybe I am?"

Naruto's face instantly changed from one of playfulness to one of nervousness.

"D-don't joke around like that Yomo-san." Naruto said nervously.

However, Yomo just smiled. He was definitely going to ask the other two if they were fine with keeping Naruto. These past few hours he slightly warmed up to the blond after proving him wrong. The noise of a jingle could be heard as the door opened. In an instant the clones poofed away causing Hinami to jump. In came Touka and Nishiki. Both of them had wide eyes as they saw the cafe was completely decorated and furnished.

"Yomo… you did all of this?" Touka asked.

Shaking his head he pointed at the smiling blond who was leaning against the counter looking at the two. He had a peaceful smile on his face as he had his face leaning into his left hand.

"Yo!" Naruto shouted.

Touka stood there staggered, wondering how he managed to do it.

"Turns out he's actually is from a different world. Honestly almost gave me a heart attack after the stunt he pulled." Yomo spoke once again surprising the two.

The two were honestly shocked by that. Their questions increased even more, but they were cut off when Naruto spoke, "Don't worry about me. I'll be out of your hair in no time." he finished with a smile. Hinami however pouted slightly. She grew quite fond of Naruto, and she didn't want him to leave already.

Yomo hearing this decided to get things out of the way.

"Naruto?" Yomo spoke catching Naruto's attention.

Naruto turned to him with a confused look, "Eh?"

With a genuine smile he changed the course of the world, "How would you like to work here?"

The response was instant.

"EHHHHHH! You barely know me and you're already offering me a job? Please don't feel that it's your responsibility to take care of me. I can take care of myself just fine, and i'll be gone in a day or so in search of a way home." Don't get him wrong he was truly flattered by the offer, but he didn't want to be an even greater annoyance than he already was.

"It's fine Naruto. I saw the look in your eye. It reminded me of… someone, and i know they would do the same-" glancing to Touka and Ginishi he saw they got the meaning. "-plus i'll gladly help you try to find a way home."

Naruto was torn. He hadn't even been here for a full day, and yet he was already offered a life here. What about everyone back home? Surely he had to go back and save them, but… what if there was no way back home. He would be all alone again with nothing. No friends, no money, nothing. Here it was an opportunity for a fresh start, while also looking for a way back. The answer was obvious, but he didn't want to join something where only half of the people like him and the other half tolerate him.

"I'm sorry Yomo-san but I really don't want to make Nishiki-san or Touka-san uncomfortable with my presence." he spoke sincerely.

Yomo just looked at the two and waited for them to speak. Naruto noticing this looked between the three waiting for something to happen. Touka and Nishiki gave him a knew nothing about him except that he claims to be from another world. His words earlier today were genuine, and he showed no signs of deceit. He didn't even seem bothered when they told him they ate humans. It was if he accepted it, and said 'oh well that's life'. He was an enigma. An enigma they all wanted to solve. Not only that but, Yomo vouched for the blond, and Yomo isn't a man to take people in without precautions. With a heavy heart she turned her gaze onto Naruto.

"I wouldn't mind your presence Naruto-san. As long as you don't harm anyone than i'm completely fine with you staying here." Touka spoke.

They turned to Nishiki. Noticing their looks he spoke, "Eh I don't care. You seem like a nice guy, so let him stay." he spoke uncaringly.

Yomo looked at Naruto as if he was waiting on an answer. Seeing this, Naruto let out a long sigh before rubbing his temple. Honestly this was a hard decision. Coming to an answer Naruto opened his eye and looked at them. They were all clearly waiting for his answer.

"Fine! Fine!" he yelled as he made it sound like it wasn't a big deal.

This got a shout of joy from Hinami, which Touka smiled at. Maybe she did come to the right decision.

"So when do we open?" Naruto asked.

"We'll stick to schedule and open next week. For now you can go rest, and we'll-" Yomo was cut off by the sound of a stomach grumbling. It caused the blonde to gain an embarrassed blush as he scratched the back of his head.

"Hehe, gomen I haven't eaten in days… due to circumstances." he spoke solemnly remembering the war.

However he got out of his solemn mood as Hinami took his hand, "What do you want to eat Naruto?"

Naruto's eyes lit up at her question. If they had the food of the gods here than this got a hundred times better than he originally thought, "Ramen" he replied instantly. She gave him a nod before Yomo took out his wallet and gave them some money. Naruto tried to tell the man to keep it, but he insisted. Called it his earnings for putting everything in place. Giving a quick 'thank you' to the man, Hinami and him left the shop in search of ramen.

The three remaining people in the cafe watched the two rush out the cafe. Touka gave out a long sigh before turning to Nishiki, "Could you go and make sure they don't get lost." she asked tiredly.

Nishiki nodded as he followed the scent of the two.

When Nishiki left Touka immediately turned to Yomo for answers.

"What did he do that changed your mind?" Touka asked curiously.

"Honestly… i'd be better if you found out yourself." he gave out a chuckle, "it'll be a nice way to pass the time as we solve the enigma that's Uzumaki Naruto." he finished with a smile. Touka couldn't help but nod at his words.

With Naruto and Hinami

They found a ramen shop pretty quickly. To be honest Naruto was the one who found it. When she asked how he did all he replied was, "I can smell the food of the gods anywhere." He spoke about it with such passion that it actually made Hinami sweat drop. They entered the building and noticed that it wasn't to crowded. It had a couple of customers. Some were with others and some were by themselves, but someone stood out to Naruto. It was a short blue haired girl who appeared to be around his age. She has two thick sections of hair which were in pigtails, and has fringed bangs. She had the brightest blue eyes Naruto had ever seen and to be honest he was entrapped by them. However the beauty of her eyes didn't match their twinkle. She was clearly depressed over something. He didn't know why but it caused his heart to hurt. It was the same feeling whenever he saw Sasuke get hurt, but… this felt more intense. Deciding that he would cheer someone's day up he sat at the table across from her. Hinami noticed this and was about to go when she felt a hand on her shoulder. When she turned around she saw Nishiki shake his head.

"Let's wait outside." he spoke to her. Giving Naruto a last glance she went outside with Nishiki to wait for him.

Naruto sat across the table from the blue haired girl. She noticed this and was giving him a weird look, but he just gave her a smile. For some strange reason it caused her to become flustered on the inside.

'What does this guy think he's doing?' the teen thought.

"What do you want?" the blue haired girl spoke in an uncertain tone.

Naruto's smile slightly drop at the tone of her voice. He had heard that tone many times. How couldn't he. It was the same tone the villagers used with him when he was younger. Closing His eyes he scratched the back of his head. He really didn't know what to say.

"Anoue sorry, but I noticed you looked a bit sad, and me being me wanted to cheer you up… I guess." he spoke with a small warm smile. He honestly had no idea why he was doing this, but if it made someone feel slightly better than why not?

The smile caused her to relax for some reason. It was if that warm smile caused all her problems to go away. But then again what could he do?

"My problems don't involve you" she spoke as her bangs shadowed her eyes.

Naruto's smile was reduced to a frown at her words.

"That's true… but that doesn't mean I still can't help in some way. Kami knows what baa-chan would do to me if she finds out that I left a pretty girl sad without doing anything to cheer her up. She'd punch me through the wall if she did, so… i'm sure there's some way I can help" he finished with a wide smile. It was true… if his baa-chan found out about it she would actually punch him through the wall.

Saiko's eyes widened at that. No one had ever been this nice to her. Now all of a sudden, this stranger walks into the restaurant and tells her he'll help. Just who exactly was this guy? Before she could even have time to speak up he called the chef over and had her order any dish she wanted, and then proceeded to order his own food. His order shocked the chef, but she was to busy trying to figure out this person's intentions. There was no way someone was this nice? Right? As she was in her thoughts she couldn't stop looking at the blond. His sunny blonde hair, his blue eye that sparkled with mischief, the whisker like marks on his face. Oh how she wanted to see if he would purr if she petted them. She also realized some bad things about the stranger as well. He was missing his right arm, and what appeared to be his left eye as well if the bandage around it was anything to go by. What had happened to him? Once the food arrived they ate in silence, or well she ate in silence, since Naruto instantly ate all five of his bowls as if he was devouring air. It honestly brought a smile to her face and even a chuckle. Maybe things weren't to bad.

Seeing the smile and hearing the chuckle Naruto couldn't help but feel happy. He left the money at the table,. "See you later Blue-chan" he spoke as he left the restaurant. She didn't know why but the blond was different. It was a weird feeling, but who knows. The whole interaction with him was just strange. With a few simple words, and actions he changed her day from depressed to happy. Who knew where the future led her. Maybe the operation won't go that bad, and she'll have friends. Another smile came to her face before she silently thanked the blond stranger. Hopefully she would run into him again, so she could thank him properly.

With Naruto

He didn't know why, but his heart was pounding very fast. It never pounded this fast. The only time it ever did was when he was in a life or death situation, and even then it wasn't like this. This however was totally different. It wasn't like the battle instinct he was used to, but… something warm. It reminded him a bit when he was hugged by his mother, or the tearful goodbye he gave to his father. 'Hopefully he told mom everything.' was his thought. He couldn't place a finger on it, but he knew he would be seeing more of the blue haired girl. When he left the shop he saw both Nishiki and Hinami looking at him with horrified expressions.

"Y-you… " Nishiki started as he wasn't able to form words, "ramen…" was all he muttered at what he just witnessed. He just saw Naruto all but inhale five extra large bowls of ramen. It intrigued him but at the same time disgusted him. There was no reason for someone to eat that fast.

Scratching the back of his head with his one arm he smiled at them, "You guys wanna go back?"

They both got out of their trance and the three walked back to the coffee shop. When they got back both Yomo and Touka turned to look at them. A confused look making its way on their face as they looked at Nishiki and Hinami looking at Naruto strangely. The blond sported a smile on his face as if nothing was wrong.

"Hinami, Nishiki, what's wrong?"

They both turned to her with the same horrified expression and muttered only one thing with pure disgust, "Ramen."

"Say Touka-san" Naruto started, "you wouldn't mind teaching me more about this world, would ya?" he asked hopefully.

The purple haired girl gave the blond a calculative look. She still had doubts about him being from another world, but what Yomo said made her think. Just what if he was? It would explain his fascination in the world, and he obviously didn't know what a ghoul was. Maybe she could learn something about the blond enigma, in return for information on this world.

"Sure, but on one condition…" she spoke softly getting the blondes attention.

"Which is?"

"You know you're not the only one interested in a different world? We basically know nothing about you, and only Yomo and Hinami know something."

"Eh! You know all you had to do was ask, right?" Naruto spoke blankly.

At his words the three ghouls gained a sweatdrop. He was acting as if it wasn't a big deal for him to be in another world. Just how innocent was he?

"Well Naruto, why don't you start first than?"

"Eh! What happened to ladies first? Don't tell me you guys don't do that here?" Naruto spoke in an unbelievable tone. They thought that he was teasing at first, but when they saw the confusion in his eyes they realized he wasn't.

Letting out a sigh Touka spoke, "Yes Naruto, we do have the saying 'ladies first' here. What I meant is that we can tell you the difference between your world and ours if we understand it a bit better."

The blondes eyes lit up in realization, "AH! So it's like sharing ramen topping?" They all sweatdropped at his joyous reply.

'Does he only think about ramen?' Were the thoughts of the ghouls.

Taking a seat Naruto put his hand to his chin, and ruffled his face together. 'Where to start…' Naruto thought.

Opening his eyes he realized that all eyes were on him. They were obviously all interested on what he had to say.

"I come from a world known as the Elemental Nations. Where there's constant war, and a world filled with shinobi."

Already they were hooked. A world with constant war? Sure they lived the same, but those were mostly skirmishes between ghouls and the CCG with the occasional raid.

"Wait, wait, wait…" Nishiki started, "Shinobi? As in ninjas?" He asked questioningly.

"Yeah. You got a problem with that?"

"It just already seems like something out of an anime or manga. We don't even know if you're lying to us or not. The only thing we do know is that we found you in a crater, and than you helped Yomo and Hinami set up the cafe. A job that was supposed to take a week was finished in a me-AHHHHHHH! WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!" He said pointing at the second Naruto.

"Nishiki you sure you aren't a girl?" Naruto teased. The scream was probably higher than his last night. The reason he made a clone was so the ghoul would shut up. His world was a touchy subject to him, yet here he was telling people he knew, for not even a day, all about his home.

Touka however was in the same state as Nishiki. Of course she didn't scream, but… how?

"Can I continue?"

"H-how the hell did you do that?" Nishiki stuttered out as he started poking the clone. He was obviously in awe. It wasn't everyday you see someone make a copy of himself, let alone a physical one.

"Can you stop poking me?" The Naruto clone spoke a bit agitated. Nishiki however ignored the clone and kept poking it. Eventually Nishiki started inspecting it.

"You know it's an exact copy of me right?" Naruto asked.

Nishiki hearing the blond; turned to him, "W-what? H-how did you… just… what?"

Naruto gained a small smile. They had to believe him now. Unless there was some way to make clones of yourself, but based on their reactions he highly doubted that.

"It's called a shadow clone, and if you would sit down i'll tell you all about it." Naruto spoke calmly.

Nishiki immediately took a seat next to Naruto. It seemed he once again had all of their attention. Dispelling the clone, which made Nishiki let out a small 'eep', Naruto continued.

"Mmm… where was I?" Naruto thought out loud.

"You said something about a world with constant war and shinobi" Touka reminded him. She was obviously intrigued as well.

"Ah thank you!" Naruto replied happily with a smile, "It's a world where the impossible is possible. There's no limit to what a shinobi can do, and the thing's we're able to pull of are incredible. Basically a shinobi's job is to serve the village, and there's five big ones. There's Kumo, Kiri, Iwa, Suna, and finally my home Konoha." He stopped as he gained a distant look before continuing, "Well anyways, the five villages compete against each other, which always leads to constant war in the smaller countries. So far there's been Four Great Shinobi Wars. Each one worse than the other." He spoke solemnly.

Flashback's were appearing in Naruto's mind. The fight against Madara, than eventually him fighting the reanimated jinjuriki, fighting Obito, and eventually… Neji's death. All of those scenes went through his mind as if he was reliving them. Shaking his head he continued, "That doesn't mean it was that bad… there were moments of peace between the villages, and i'm sure after the last one there won't be one ever again." His voice changed back into it's go lucky attitude. A smile plastered on his face, which seemed to wash his worries away. "Basically us Shinobi use this energy called chakra, which is inside our bodies. I don't know to much about it since… I wasn't really paying to much attention in class. But… I do know the basics of it. Chakra is the essence of when spiritual energy and physical energy combined. With it you're able to control the five elements, and with enough training the possibilities are endless." Naruto's tone was joyful throughout his whole explanation. It seemed he really admired his world, "What else, what else…" Naruto thought out loud, "OH! There's a ranking system for us shinobi too. After you graduate from the academy you become a genin, and after that is chunin, than Jonin, and then finally the leader of my village the Hokage!" he finished as he pumped his fist into the air.

"Sugoi…" Hinami started, "Say, say, Star-kun! What rank are you?" Hinami spoke as she had stars in her eyes. The entire time she was leaned in as she wanted to hear every detail of Naruto's world. After all she was the one who found him.

At that Naruto gained a nervous smile. "Ah… currently i'm a genin, but that's not going to stop me from becoming Hokage! Dattebayo!" The same enthusiasm and determination sparkled in his eyes. Instead of laughing at his rank, Hinami's eyes grew wider at his declaration.

Hinami wasn't the only one who was awed at the blond's determination. Touka herself looked at his eye. His eye was so broken the night before, and now… now that one lone cerulean blue eye sparkled as if it could do anything in the world.

Yomo couldn't help but gain a small smile, and Nishiki withheld his teasing. Hearing about the blonds world, it was clear to him, if not all of them, that the blond went through something. Than again everyone does. It just amazed him how easily his personality changed.

One thing they could all agree on was that they were confused on when Naruto said there would be no more wars. Surly a world like that couldn't just become all goody goody after a war. Or maybe something drastic happened?

"Well I guess that's everything summed up. Say Touka-san, what about this world?" Naruto spoke happily.

However instead of response all Naruto got was a book hitting his face. Falling out of his chair Naruto got up angrly, "OI! THE HELL WAS THAT FOR!" Naruto yelled out as he clenched his one arm in front of him.

"It's called a book." Touka replied.

"YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO THROW IT AT ME!"

Touka however just shrugged at his response, before turning to Hinami, "Hinami, could you explain to him the things he doesn't get?"

Hinami looked at her older sister before furiously nodding.

Calming down a little Naruto looked at the book that was on the floor.

'A Dummies Guide to Tokyo' Naruto read the name of the book. There was a small thinking period as the information processed through Naruto's brain. Turning around he pointed a accusing finger at Touka, "OI! WHO DO YOU THINK I AM!" Naruto yelled at her. His eyes were blank white and had a tick mark on his forehead.

Touka gave him an innocent look, "You said you wanted to know more. Plus I think this'll suit you the best."

Naruto fumed at her words. Taking a seat next to Hinami; the latter started teaching the former all about the world.

So Chapter 2... Not gonna lie i'm kinda nervous posting this. I don't really have that much of a high self esteem for my self, but I think it's ready to be put up. One of my main concerns is probably repeating my self, or my choice of words. Another thing i'm also concerned about is the dialogue between characters. Let's just hope that's just me, and that I actually wrote something that you guys enjoyed. Thank you so much for the reviews, and if you have any suggestions, or would like to mention something that i'm not doing right. Than feedback is very much appreciated, so I could make my writing better for all of you. I decided to write this chapter a bit longer, since in the previous one I got a review saying that the Sasuke/Naruto interaction was a bit to long, and honestly I have to agree. Hopefully this makes up for that, and the next chapter will be shorter than these two. Why you may ask? Well i'll tell you in the next chapter. Thank's for reading! Till next time!
