AND SO! This fanfiction is going to have the pairing of Naruto X Temari! Thank you to everyone who voted!

I'm still stuck on abilities other then earth bending for Naruto... Although I might go for a staff or -strangely enough- Tessen (I actually have a good idea how Naruto could use either one with both earth bending and a wind affinity...). Suggestions would be appreciated

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Avatar: The Last Airbender!

To say that the legendary toad sage, Jiraiya was in pain was an understatement. The self proclaimed super pervert was lying in a hospital bed completely covered in bandages, chained down to the bed with the windows covered up by wood to prevent sunlight to come through. The toad sage seemed to be in quite the critical condition and was scared shitless. Now, what could have given such a powerful ninja so many injuries or scare the man so much? Only a few words were needed to describe the horrors that he had had to face off against, Tsunade. And. Her. Apprentices. Both of them! Both Shizune and the new one, Haruno Sakura. Shocking isn't it? Who would have guessed that Naruto's pink haired teammate would attack a Sannin? The self proclaimed super pervert sure as hell hadn't seen the punch coming, nor had predicted anything else that had come out of the pink haired girl, she made Orochimaru seem like an innocent, cute and fluffy little puppy. Suddenly, the hospital room door opened and-

The white long-haired self proclaimed super pervert awoke from his slumber completely paranoid and freaked out, that was one horrible dream, possibly the worst he had ever had and it was all thanks to that damn blond haired gaki! Ever since Jiraiya had found a horribly written letter for him by Minato's son nine days ago saying that the gaki was leaving the toad sage had been having terrible -actually that was an understatement- nightmares of the things that Tsunade would do to him if she had found out what happened, the last one had just happened to be worse then the rest and it hadn't even been Tsunade doing most of the torturing! Worst of all is the fact that most -if not all- of those nightmares would most likely come true if he went and told the fifth Hokage what had happened and so he had decided to look for the blond gaki by himself. Then perhaps he would apologise for what he had said about him being useless without relying on the Kyuubi's chakra, even though he ahead had a little to much to drink at the time...

The toad sage hadn't been able to track the blond down -the gaki was able to avoid even the most skilled of ANBU when he used to do pranks- so he had ended up going to places that the blond would most likely have gone. That was how he had ended up in his current location, an Inn that was located in the land of waves, he had arrived in Wave the night before and had decided that he would go around asking in anyone had seen the boy in the morning. No perverted things, no 'research'. Just looking for that damn gaki. Some may ask why looking for the blond haired boy was more important then the toad sage's 'research'?

Jiraiya felt guilty, he knew that he had been a bit to harsh on the blond boy but he just wanted the gaki to survive... Unlike the three orphans from Amegakure that he had taught during the war and Minato, who had died sealing the kyuubi into his own son! With an organisation of S-Rank missing nins after the blond Jiraiya had thought that the best way for him to protect himself would be to be able to use the nine-tailed bijuu's chakra... But apparently he had said something in their last talk that had hurt the blond boy, hurt him enough for him to run away from the super pervert, now all Jiraiya wanted to do was to apologise and train the boy seriously.

After preparing for the day the toad sage was seen walking down one of the not-so-busy streets of the Wave country with a serious look on his face, he was looking for someone who he might be able to get information on the blond gaki from when he spotted a man leaning against a building with a bottle of sake in his right hand. Perhaps this man could be easy to get any information out of? Who knows, Jiraiya might as well try! The white haired Sannin approached the man while making sure not to use his ninja stealth skill, the toad sage wouldn't want to startle the man now would he? Well, deep -not so deep- down he probably did want to scare the man.

"Excuse me" Jiraiya said in a serious tone making sure he had the other mans attention, when the man looked at him and it seemed like he would listen to whatever Jiraiya had to say the super pervert continued. "I'm looking for a blond spiky-haired short gaki, I was wondering if you had seen him recently? His name is Uzumaki Naruto." Jiraiya took note of the mans expression as it from curious to questioning, after about a minute the man spoke up, but it was clear in his voice that he had to much to drink.

"Yeah I know the brat, awhile ago he saved this village and then a couple of days ago he came by, but it was just to stock up on supplies, the kid had said that his vacation from the Hokage was almost over so he didn't have the time to stay for more then one night, he left yesterday in the early afternoon." Wait... WHAT!? It seemed as though Jiraiya had just missed Naruto. Damn it, stupid no good son of a...! Why in the name of kami did he find the need to stay at another town before hedging over to Wave? If he hadn't done that then he would have found that damn gaki! But perhaps the blond had left a trail to follow? With that thought in mind Jiraiya left the land of Waves to see what he could find in the surrounding area. But sadly all he could find was a fallen tree. Well, SHIT! How in the name of kami was he supposed to find the damn blond brat now?

Finished! I know that this was a short chapter but I felt like I had to write it, I couldn't have Jiraiya in chapter 1 and then come back in ages after! Please review as reviews fuel my youthful flames of youth! Constructive criticism is welcome!
