"Ah Jiraiya-San, it's a pleasure to meet you again. And it appears you have brought a guest" said Rasa. Jiraiya bowed. "A pleasure it is to see you again as well. And yes, this is my son Naruto." At this Rasa's eyes slightly widened. "This is certainly a surprise. I never thought that you'd be a family man considering your reputation"he said.
Jiraiya scratched the back of his head and laughed sheepishly. "Everybody changes with time"he replied. Nodding at this, he motioned for his kids to come over. "These 2 are my children, Kankuro and Temari." Jiraiya bonked Naruto on his head and Kankuro giggled but Temari silenced him with an elbow to the gut.
Naruto glared at the grinning Sannin. Then he walked up to the pair with a smile and stuck out his hand. "Hello, my name is Naruto." Seeing this, Kankuro followed suit. "Hey, the names Kankuro, nice to meet ya." Then he turned to Temari. "Hello, my names Temari"she replied shaking his hand. She finally got a good look at him and what caught her attention was his eyes.
They were the most unique kind she's ever seen in her short life. "Temari, Kankuro, Naruto seems to be around your age, show him around the village" said Rasa. Nodding at this, the trio left the room. Turning his attention back to Jiraiya, he gained a serious expression. "Now about the seal."
Naruto was following Temari and Kankuro through the village. He was admiring the architecture of the Sand. It was the first hidden village he's ever been inside. As he was drinking in the sights, Temari asked him a question. "So Naruto, what's it like having a Sannin as your father?" He raised his eyebrows and shrugged. "I mean it's nothing special. I mean he trains me and all of that but it's nothing compared to being children of a Kage" he grinned.
"Pft that's better than us, we haven't even began training yet" said the shorter male. "How old are you guys?"he asked. "I'm 4 and Kankuro is 3, what about you?"Temari asked. "I'm 5 but I'm turning 6 soon" he replied. "So you plan on entering the academy?"asked a curious Kankuro. Naruto just folded his arms behind his head and sighed. "Nah, I don't plan on becoming an official ninja. I'm content with just training and exploring the elemental nations."
"Why don't you want to become a ninja? Your father is a legend!" Temari asked with disbelieving eyes. "Well I never grew up in a village, so I guess that has something to do with it but aside from that, there's nothing special about being a ninja. Ranks mean nothing"he replied. "Dude, being a ninja is awesome. My dream is to become the greatest puppeteer the Sand has ever seen!"said Kankuro. Naruto smiled at this. "That's a very noble dream. I believe with enough practice, you can accomplish any goal you have in life"he replied. Kankuro grinned. "Thanks"he said.
"Well my dream is to become the greatest Kunoichi the elemental nations has ever seen"said a confident Temari. Nodding at this, Naruto spoke. "That's quite the dream. For that, you'd have to surpass Tsunade Senju. But as I said, with enough practice anything is possible." She nodded at this as they reached a park. "Hey Naruto, you said you're training right?"asked Kankuro. "Yeah, what about it?"he asked curiously.
"Can you show us a jutsu!?"he asked excitedly. "Kankuro calm down you idiot. You're embarrassing!"shouted a frustrated Temari. "Temari it's fine. I only know so many jutsu but I can show you one that I've recently mastered. But get behind me so you won't get caught in the crossfire"he said. They nodded and watched with anticipation.
He went through hand signs and said 'water style water bullet' and much to their amazement, water formed out of seemingly nowhere and a bullet of water dashed toward a tree and upon impact, a giant hole was created in the tree. Getting over their shock, Kankuro jumped up and down in the air. "That was so cool!"he yelled. Temari nodded dumbly. Seeing this Naruto got an idea. How would you two like to unlock your chakra?"he asked. They were shocked.
"Uh are you sure we can do that? I mean we haven't started the academy yet!" asked a nervous Temari. "Yeah, it's totally safe. And think about it, when you do start, you'll be ahead of the kids in your class"he replied. Feeling a lot better about this, they followed him to another tree. "It's fairly simple, just sit down and close your eyes and focus on finding that warm feeling within you. And when you find it, pull it"he instructed. Nodding at this, they did what he said and it took a few hours but they both unlocked it and they were tired. That's when Jiraiya and Rasa appeared.
"Hey brat, I see you've made some friends"said a smiling Jiraiya. "Yeah Dad, they're pretty cool and fun to be around even though Temari is a little scary"he shivered slightly. Remembering her slapping Kankuro when he unlocked his chakra before her. Jiraiya laughed, "well it seems like you enjoyed yourself"he added. Naruto nodded in agreement. "I see you two have unlocked your chakra"Rasa pointed out. They opened their mouths to defend themselves but Rasa silenced them.
"It's quite alright. I was planning to begin your training within a few months but I guess Naruto took the initiative and helped you two out"he said. At this, Naruto gained a sheepish expression at Jiraiya's raised eyebrow. "Well I thought it would be helpful. It didn't hurt them"he replied. "Oh it's alright Naruto, Jiraiya has told me that you're quite the shinobi for your age" said Rasa. "Heheh thanks Rasa-Sama"replied a bushing Naruto. "Hey I thought you said you didn't want to become a shinobi?"asked Temari.
"Yeah, I said I didn't but I never said I wasn't one Princess"he said with a smirk. Her eye twitched at the nickname and she glared at a snickering Kankuro. He quickly stopped his musings when he realized she was looking at him. Naruto looked at his father and spoke. "See I told you she was scary." Jiraiya just nodded sagely. "Be wary of the blonde women"he said in an informative tone.
Naruto nodded as he wrote that down in a notebook that seemingly appeared out of nowhere. Seeing this, the 4 other people sweat dropped. 'It seems that he's picked up that habit' thought an amused Rasa. 'That's how I look?'thought a sheepish Jiraiya. Rasa spoke up once again. "Well Naruto, I don't mind if you continue to train my kids. Nothing excessive of course but help them with the basics, if that's okay with your father." Naruto looked at his dad with expectant eyes.
"Well I don't see a problem with it, we'll be here for a while anyway. Might as well make have a little fun but remember what I told you okay?" "Yeah, yeah I got it old man" Naruto replied. He dodged the hit that was aimed for his head but grabbed his head in pain and looked up at a smirking Temari. "That's for calling me princess." The other 3 guys laughed heartily. Naruto just grumbled about being bullied by blonde princesses.
