Naruto hummed a little song as he jogged down the hill, he did not have Eva or Dawn with him as they were still tired from the party last night.
The gophers celebrated their first victory in the show and partied all night with their new hot tub.
The bass were not to please with the loud noise made from the party and tried to stop it. They went to the gopher to demand them to stop the party, but they wouldn't listen and soon the two groups came to an argument.
But thing calmed down after Bridgette and Courtney deescalate the situation, it ended with the two groups just started partying together.
This was the first time Eva had ever partied and went way beyond her normal sleeping schedule while Dawn could not sleep with the noise and went to the forest to mediate.
He used his heightened sense to ensure that Dawn was safe in the forest. he later had to carry her back to the cabin once she fell asleep mediating.
Naruto walked back to his 2-story tall house, wanting to get a shower for the day. He did not have much to do today since it was a rest day.
He opened the door and was about to go in until he heard running water coming from the bathroom. He stayed still for a moment before he looked down.
'Lindsay?' Naruto thought as he saw the brown boots standing next to his shoes.
Naruto thought about what to do next and realized that he could do nothing right now, he could not just waltz in the shower and scold Lindsay.
That would be an invasion of privacy, and he would be walking in on her while she was butt naked.
He sighed before he went and sat down on the couch, he was going to have a talk with Lindsay later but right now was the not the time for that.
"I can try to think of ideas for the future while I wait." Naruto said before he walked up and got a notebook from one of the drawers.
He was thinking about what to do after the show was over, he was making a lot of money from the show, but it would not be enough to really live a life.
He wants to focus on building a business to help generate money for himself, but most of the skills he had could not be used or he did not want to use them.
He could build a dojo and teach martial arts to the younger generation but once again, he was finished with fighting.
He was fine with doing a little combat, but he did not want his whole life to revolve around it.
He could not really use his counseling skills because he needed a degree for that, and he did not want to go to school again.
He did not like school one bit; he could understand the use of it but that did not mean he liked it.
School brought bad memories from his life, ones that he got over with but did not want to experience again.
He also did not want to spend too much time on the business itself, he only wanted to help build it in the starting stages then let it grow on its own.
He did not want to make a huge business, just one that could allow him to carry out his current goal.
He had already thought of what to do after the show was over. he wanted to travel all around the world and experience the rich culture that this new world had to offer.
His business ideas had now narrowed down to a few things, the only problem was that these ideas would not really work for him right now like the clothing business he thought of.
Naruto rubbed his hair in frustration, why was starting a small business so difficult?
His train of thought was interrupted as he heard someone coming down, he stood up to see Lindsay in a bathrobe.
"Hello Lindsay." Naruto greeted the blonde girl.
"Hey nick, what are you doing here?" Lindsay greeted him back before she tilted her head.
"This is my house, and my name is Naruto." Naruto simply said.
"Oh, this is your house! I am so sorry! I did not know that." Lindsay said as she clutched onto her face, she wanted to go apologize before Naruto stopped.
"We can have the talk later, how about you get dressed first." Naruto said as he looked away.
"Oh, okay." Lindsay said, she started to move around and looked at everything around her before just standing there in place.
Naruto raised an eyebrow as Lindsay nervous giggled at the blonde man.
"What wrong?" Naruto said as he narrowed his eyes on the Bombshell.
"Well, when I first got here. I was so excited by the idea of a real shower that I forget to get clothes from the cabin." Lindsay rubbed her index fingers together while looking nervously at Naruto.
Naruto eyebrow twitch as he looked at the naïve girl, he sighed with a face-palm before pulling out his phone and dialed a number.
"Hey chef, do we have a female intern available?" Naruto asked the cook on the phone.
"I don't think so, I'm pretty sure every intern left the island and went to the resort to relax since it a rest day." Chef said on the phone, Naruto mouth twitched as he heard his response.
"Did the costume arrive yet?" Naruto prayed to anyone who was up there to listen to his wish.
"Nope, it'll take about 2 more days until they arrive." Naruto mentally screamed as he listened to chef words.
"Why are you asking these questions, brat." Chef asked on the phone.
Naruto look at the phone as he contemplated if he should tell chef the truth. He sighed before he answered.
"Lindsay had a wardrobe malfunction and she currently in one my rooms waiting for some coverage." Naruto said with a serious face, trying to make the lie as believable as he could.
"Oh, that sounds bad. It a good this happened outside a challenge or else the editing team would have a field day with this." Chef said with a small chuckle.
"Come on chef, take this seriously." Naruto said while rubbing the bridge of his nose.
"Fine but I don't think I'll be any help." Chef said over the phone.
"Alright, thank you for trying." Naruto sighed before he hung up, he put his phone away before looking back at the nervous girl.
"How about you get your old clothes on and leave my house." Naruto said as he rubbed his eyebrows.
"I can't…I already put it in the washing machine with your clothes." Lindsay said as he hung her head down, Naruto used his sense to see if it was true.
He was able to hear the washing machine fully working right now. He facepalmed at the sheer bad luck he was facing right now.
"I'm so sorry for causing you all this trouble." Lindsay said nervously.
"It's fine Lindsay, it not all your fault." Naruto said before slumping down onto the couch.
The two stayed there in silence as they contemplated what to do.
"What do we do now?" Lindsay finally spoke after a while.
Naruto rubbed his face on what to do next. Lindsay couldn't just go and grab her clothes since she was still in her Bathrobe.
and there were hundred of camera hidden everywhere in this camp, it would ruin Lindsay future if pictures of her state were leaked to the public.
He also couldn't ask the female campers because they would probably misunderstand the whole situation and think he was sleeping with Lindsay.
Naruto stood still for a few moments before he thought of an idea, he stared at the table for a few moments before staring back at the girl.
"Lindsay, how about you just stay up in my room while you wait for your clothes to dry?" Naruto asked the girl.
Lindsay nodded since that was probably for the best solution for their current predicament.
"Can I have some coverage though?" Lindsay asked the blonde man; she did not want to stay in the bathrobe for the whole time she was here.
"Here, you can use my shirt for some cover." Naruto grabbed one of his shirts from the drawer and gave it to Lindsay.
"Thank you, Nate. and I'm sorry for all the trouble." Lindsay looked down while apologizing to Naruto.
"It fine, we'll talk about this later when your fully clothed." Naruto waved it off, trying to calm the situation down.
Lindsay nodded before heading up into the 2nd floor.
Naruto slumped onto his couch and just stood there in silence, and he rubbed his hand all over his face.
He could not believe the awful luck he was having this morning.
He grabbed his notebook; he needs something to focus his mind away from what happening right now.
Naruto tapped his pencil while trying to think of ideas for a business, but he couldn't think of one that matched with his requirements.
His attention was soon pulled away when he heard a knock on the door.
'What is it now?' Naruto got up from the couch and walked towards the door to see who it was.
"Dawn?" Naruto looked down to see the nature girl at his door.
"Good morning, Naruto." Dawn waved at Naruto before something drew her attention up.
"Good morning to you too, Dawn. Do you need anything?" Naruto asked while trying to block Dawn view upstairs.
"No, I just came to say thank you for carrying me back. But I do have question now." Drops of sweat formed on Naruto forehead as he stares at the girl.
"And what that?" Naruto asked with a slight shaken voice.
"Why is Lindsay in your house?" Dawn asked while pointed up toward Naruto room.
"What are you talking about, Lindsay is not here." Naruto said nervously, trying to divert Dawn away from the truth.
"Naruto, do you have any smaller shirts?" Lindsay asked as she walked down the stairs.
"Oh hey, Dalia. What are you doing here." Lindsay waved at the nature girl; Dawn turned her head at Naruto with a raised eyebrow.
"Ok I can explain this." Naruto said before he started to explain the whole process to Dawn so that thing do escalate beyond this.
"I see." Dawn nodded, now understanding the whole situation.
"Huh, are you not suspicious about anything?" Naruto was surprised that Dawn was accepting all this with any suspicion.
"Why would I be suspicious, I know that both of you aren't type of people." Both Lindsay and Naruto tilted their heads at Dawn.
"We aren't?" Dawn smiled at the cute image of Naruto tilting his head, he looked a curious little fox.
"Yes, you are not someone who would have sex with someone you just met. You wish to first build an emotional connection before you do that." Naruto blushed while rubbing his head at Dawn pusedo-compliment.
"And Lindsay is not someone who would throw her herself into someone arms like that because of her…past." Naruto narrowed his eyes as Lindsay flinched upon Dawn words.
"What do you mean her past?" Naruto asked with a slight frown.
"I don't believe that is my place to say." Dawn said with a black expression while looking at Lindsay.
"Lindsay, are you okay." Lindsay didn't answer Naruto question and just went back upstairs with trembling shoulders.
Naruto clenched his fist as he watched worriedly at Lindsay leaving before turning his head back to Dawn.
"Can you get some of Lindsay clothes from the cabin." Dawn nodded before heading towards the door.
The nature girl stopped where she was and looked back at the sulking Naruto.
"You should talk to her after she is dressed." Naruto body shook before he turned back to the girl.
"But I barely know her." Naruto said with uncertainty, feeling like he wasn't someone who should go talk to Lindsay.
"Yes, but that hasn't stopped you from helping others." Naruto eyes widen as he watched the nature girl leave.
Naruto stood there speechless before he ran through his hair.
'What the hell. Dawn is right, I'll go talk to Lindsay after this.' Naruto slumped down on the couch, waiting for Dawn to return.
The nature girl soon came back with a full set of clothes. Naruto nodded to her while she walked up the stairs.
The counselor waited a few minutes before Dawn came down the stairs.
"I'll be outside if you need any help." Dawn said as he heads to the door and walked out.
Lindsay walked back down and sat down on the couch across from Naruto, she was now wearing a yellow shirt with orange shirt.
"I'm sorry about everything." Lindsay apologizes with a sullen face, still effected by Dawn previously comment.
"is everything alright, Lindsay. You can talk to me if you want." Naruto said as he placed his hand on the girl's shoulder.
"You don't have to scared of anything; I will protect you with all my strength." Naruto said with pure conviction within his voice.
Lindsay looked up to see Naruto eyes, she was surprised to see the worry and concern within those pure eyes of his.
His eyes were so beautiful, they were filled with so much love and warmth that it could make anyone feel safe and comfortable to be around him.
His hands were rough but at the same time delicate. It made her feel safe and protected, it was as if it was reassuring her that she had someone to lean on to.
Lindsay took a deep breath before she opened her eyes.
"Thank you for your consideration, Naru…but I don't think I feel safe to come out." Lindsay said with her head hanging down, worried that Naruto might not like her reaction.
"It's alright, Lindsay. I know it hard to talk about one trauma but..." Naruto looked at the depressed girl before he stood up and went to sit next to her, he grabbed her hand and looked into her eye.
"Just remember that my place is always open for you. I'm here if you need me." Naruto reassured her as he gripped onto her hand, a small smile formed on Lindsay face.
"Thanks." Lindsay smiled at the blonde counselor.
"You don't need to thank me, Lindsay. I'm just doing what right." Naruto said as he began to rub Lindsay head.
"Yeah…but I'm still thankful that you care." Lindsay accepted the head pat with a huge smile.
It was nice to know that in this depressing and horrid camp, there was someone that she could go to for comfort and safety.
"oh, I almost forgot, I'm also sorry about invading your house." Lindsay said nervously as she twirled around her fingers.
"It alright, just why did you have to use my shower?" Naruto asked, he wanted to understand the whole reason for the ordeal that happened this morning.
"It because I did not like the camp one. It all gross and itchy, I saw rats and coach roaches while showering!" Lindsay said in disgust as she remembered all the time she showered in the camp communal.
"Sometimes the shower would go from hot to cold every few minutes and that ruin my whole mood." Lindsay shivered as memories of this horrid experience flashed through her mind.
"Okay…I can understand that but how did you even get into my house. It was locked." Naruto asked with a slight frown, he made sure that he locked his house before running.
"Oh, I was playing with teddy, and he later led me to your house and opened it. He wanted some food from your home." Lindsay said with a smile.
Naruto slapped his hand on his forehead, he had forgotten that he gave teddy a key to house if he ever wanted food.
He could not believe it coming to bite him in the ass this soon.
"Wait…you were with teddy, when?" Naruto said with a raised eyebrow.
"Yep! It was one of the first things I did when I woke up at 6 today." Lindsay giggled while cute memories of teddy flashed through her mind.
"6 am? I'm shocked that someone like you could wake up at such a earlier time." Naruto was surprised that Lindsay could wake at such a time when most are still sleeping.
"That nothing, I woke up everyday at 5 to go play with the animals on my parents farm since I was 13 years old." Lindsay said with pride in her tone.
"It was why I went to play with teddy first thing in the morning, cause it reminded me of home." Lindsay smiled as she remembered the fun times she had with the barn animals.
"You are a farm girl? Now that's a surprise that wasn't expecting to hear." Naruto said a slight surprise in his tone.
"What, you didn't expect a beautiful girl like me to be form the country." Lindsay said while striking pose Infront of naruto.
"No, I was not." Naruto shook his head with a playful smile
"well, you best believe it cause even though I'm a farm girl. I'm still very refined and elegant." Lindsay waved her hair as a face of pride formed on her face.
Naruto smiled at the girl before he heard her stomach rumble. Lindsay soon covered her belly with a steaming face, embarrassed that she did that Infront of naruto.
Naruto chuckled at the cute image of Lindsay before he walked towards the kitchen. "Would you like to join me for breakfast, Lindsay?"
"Really?!" Lindsay looked at the whiskered man with expecting eyes, she was dying to eat real food after having to live with chefs cooking these past few days.
"Yes, it really nothing. Can you also get Dawn, she outside." Naruto said as he started making breakfast.
"Okay." Lindsay nodded as she walked towards the door and looked out to find Dawn. She didn't have to look much as Dawn was meditating in a near by tree.
"Dalian, naru is making breakfast. You want some?" Lindsay shouted towards the nature girl.
Dawn woke up from her meditation and walked towards the house, she was feeling hungry and would mind some actual food.
The two walked back to the table and sat down next to each other. Naruto soon walked out of the Kitchen with three different plates.
The plate that was placed infront of Lindsay had fried eggs, sausages, And pancakes with syrup on top of it.
Naruto plate had a fried egg on toast, some bacon, and finally a ham sandwich.
Dawn had a sliced avocado on toast and a salad on the side.
Naruto was about to dig into his breakfast until he saw Lindsay looking at him questionably.
"Is something the matter, Lindsay." Naruto asked the girl.
Lindsay turned to Dawn plate before he answered Naruto question.
"Why aren't there meat on Dawn plate?" Lindsay asked nervously while clutching onto her face.
"Is there a problem with that?" Naruto raised his eyebrow at Lindsay, wonder what the problem with that.
"Of course, that's a problem!" Lindsay planed his hand into the stable as she spoke, startling the two of them.
"My momma always tells me to eat meat because it healthy and help people grow up!" Lindsay said with a huff, Dawn soon turned her attention to the girl chest as she said that.
"How is Dawn going to grow up if she isn't properly fed!" Lindsay got up from her table and hugged the girl tenderly.
"She already skinny and weak as it is, just look at her!" Lindsay said as she showed Dawn wrist to Naruto.
"What do you have to say for yourself, mister." Lindsay glared at the man sitting across the table.
Naruto looked seriously at Lindsay before a whole blown laugh erupted from his mouth and caused him to fall of his chair.
Lindsay looked confusedly at Naruto before she felt a finger tapping on her shoulder and turned around to see Dawn behind her.
"Lindsay, I'm vegan." Dawn said while looking into Lindsay eyes, trying to help explain her situation to the girl.
"Vegan? What is that, Some type of plant or animals?" Lindsay asked confusedly while tilting her head.
Naruto laughed even more, and he had to clutch onto his sides. A small sighed came out of Dawn mouth before she started to what a vegan is to Lindsay.
It took awhile before the concept of what vegan is fully developed into Lindsay mind.
"Oh, that what a vegan is but why would you want to be a vegan?" A small question mark formed at Lindsay as she asked this.
"It because I see animals as my friends and do not like to see them suffer." Dawn said plainly, but Naruto could sense some hatred in her voice.
"Then…do you feel uncomfortable when I eat meat?" Lindsay fiddled with her hands as she stares nervously at the nature girl.
"No, I understand that you have your needs, and I should respect the choice you have made." Dawn reassured the girl that she did no harm to her at all.
"So, you're okay with me eating meat?" Lindsay was relieved to see that Dawn nodded to her question.
"Oh, thank god." Lindsay sighed a breath of relief before she turned to the Naruto.
"Stop laughing, naru. It not that funny!" Lindsay huffed her cheeks; Naruto had been laughing at the whole ordeal without stopping for a minute.
"Sorry…I just couldn't help it." Naruto chuckled while wiping away the small tear on his eye.
"We should probably start eating before the food get cold." Naruto said while looking down on his food, The two girls nodded and started eating their breakfast.
"Omg, this is so delicious!" Stars flashed in Lindsay eyes as she chewed on the pancakes, they were the softest and sweetest pancakes she had ever tasted.
"I have to agree." Dawn nodded along side Lindsay, the salad tasted amazing and everything in it blended so well together.
"Why thank you. I've been studying up on cooking since I got the cookbook." Naruto was happy that the girls liked the foods.
He picked up his sandwich and tasted it, he hummed in satisfaction as he tasted the food before him. This was amazing.
Some time later
"…it took them two months to wash off the hair dye. They all tried to blame me for it, but they had no evidence of me doing it, so I got Scot free from any trouble. Hahahah!" Naruto laughed as he told one of his pranks to the girls.
They had finished their breakfast and were heading towards the cabins.
Naruto wanted to meet up with DJ to start his plans to help the young man in the road of progress, he was going to keep his promise and help anyway he can for DJ.
Lindsay wanted to go back to the cabin to start her daily skin routine, she was worried that the harsh environment in the camp would ruin her complexion and was going to strengthen her skincare.
Dawn was just following along to hang out with them, she was going to leave later to go on an adventure out in the forest or go play with teddy.
They soon arrived at the cabins and saw that many of the campers were hanging around it.
Lashawna was currently applying hair conditioner to her hair while Eva worked out next to her with her mp3 on.
Duncan was drawing a skeletal bass on his side of the cabin and Cody was trying to start up a conversation with Gwen who was just ignoring him and focused more on reading her book.
Music could be heard from the gopher side as Trent started to mess around with his guitar. Justin stood next to him as he admired himself in the mirror while both Sadie and Katie admired the model.
Courtney was writing in her notebook and seemed to be strategizing on what the next challenge would be, Noah was reading a book while also ignoring Owen as he talked about all the food he had eaten.
Both Harold and Tyler were doing jumping jacks for some reason and heather was busy painting her nails and was interacting with no one.
"Where were you two at? you guys missed out on breakfast." Lashawna asked the two newly arrived campers.
she had been wondering where those two went as she couldn't find them anywhere.
"They weren't missing out on much; the breakfast was just as bad as lunch." Heather commented as she looked at her newly painted nails, the campers agreed with her on that much.
"Oh, we were having an amazing breakfast with naru." Lindsay said with a smile, the campers stopped what they were doing and looked at the blonde bombshell.
"The pancakes were the best I had ever eaten." Lindsay licked her lips as she reminisced on her breakfast.
"You had pancakes for breakfast." Gwen asked in shock, she wanted to eat literally anything other than chef cooking right now.
"Yeah, and dawn had an amazing salad for her breakfast." Dawn nodded since both of them had shared some of their food together, she got pancakes and Lindsay got some salad.
"What gives, counselor. Are you giving special treatment to these two?" Heather asked angrily, she could not believe these two weirdos got to eat some delicious dish while she ate literal slab.
"Technically yes." Naruto said calmly, not really trying to defend himself on that matter.
"WHY?!" Courtney roared at the unfair treatment they were given, why should those two be given good treatment while everyone else was forced to live with far worse experiences.
"Thats none of your business." Naruto said as he ignored everyone's complaints and walked towards DJ.
"Come on, DJ. We got to start your training." Naruto said as he pulled the confused camper to the mess-hall.
The rest of the campers watched as the two left before they returned to look back at the two girls.
"Goodbye, I have other matter to attend to." Dawn said before she walked into the forest for more adventure.
Lindsay was now left all alone to face the questioning glares from her fellow contestants.
She did not know what to do and just ran into the forest along side dawn.
"Catch her!" Tyler yelled out as a few of the campers ran after her, they wanted to see if they could get some special treatment too.
Only a few campers like heather and Duncan stayed behind since they were going to go on a wild goose chase for a girl just for some special treatment.
"Ohm, Naruto. Why are we going to the mess-hall." DJ asked nervously as he followed the blonde-haired man to the mess-hall.
"To get you started on becoming a man." Naruto said with a smile as he looked back at DJ.
"We are first going to start by making you work out and start discipline yourself." Naruto said, he knew from personal experience that working out was one of the best ways to grow as a person.
"But how is that going to help me?" DJ asked with a confused expression, he didn't see how working out could make him less fearful of things.
"Well, you first need to understand how fear is even born. It is created from a reaction towards thing that you believe could kill you." Naruto said as he pulled out a pair of glasses from his pocket, he did not need it for his eyes. He just wanted to look smart.
"Things like spiders and height cause fear because people consciously believe it could kill them, the way to fight fear is by believing those things can't harm that much and that you can face it head on." Naruto said as he placed his hand behind his back.
"So…shouldn't I start by getting used to those things by experiencing them instead of exercising?" DJ said as he tried to place his input into the story.
"Oh, DJ. How naïve you are. Your method may work but it will take years to overcome it. The best way to overcome fear is build confidence in yourself." Naruto said with a small chuckle.
"But I'm already pretty strong." DJ said as he started to flex his muscles. He may not show it, but he was proud of the body he built over the years.
"You are thinking about it the wrong way, DJ. Let me ask you a question, what do you think is the difference between a bodybuilder and a soldier when they work out." Naruto asked the gentle giant.
DJ began to think about the difference between the two, but his mind couldn't properly think of an answer. It took him a while before he answered.
"The soldier is train to go to war while the bodybuilder is doing to showcase it to everyone?" DJ said with some uncertainty.
"That correct, DJ." Naruto said as he rubbed the young man head.
"Let me give you an analogy of the difference between the two. Which situation would you feel safer in if a bear were charging straight at you." Naruto said as he already thought of a way to help DJ grasp a better understanding on his training.
"Would you feel safer if you were in a group of 5 people or if you had a shotgun with you?" Naruto said as he offered this question to DJ.
"Uhh…the shotgun." DJ said as he rubbed his head.
"Why is that DJ?" Naruto said with a smile.
"I don't know, I just feel like a weapon is better than having more people." DJ said after a moment of thinking about it.
"But how does this correlate to anything we were talking about?" DJ asked the blonde counselor.
"Because the situations are the same as the bodybuilder vs soldier." Naruto said with a small laugh.
"It is?" DJ said with a confused tone.
"Yes, bodybuilder try to grow their muscles to look bigger but that does little to lessen fear just like in the first situation while soldier train their body to became weapons." Naruto soon smiled as the realization dawned upon DJ face.
"Soldiers train their body to be faster, stronger, and more durable. They can overcome their fears because they a 'weapon' with them for protection." Naruto said as he raised his clench fist.
"DJ, do you think I'm brave?" Naruto popped a question at the gentle giant.
"Yeah, you're like the bravest person I know." DJ said with zero hesitation, there was no person alive who could bravely play with a bear or swim in shark infest wars with zero fears.
"Do you know why that is?" Naruto chuckled at the compliment DJ gave him.
"Because your body is a weapon." DJ said as he looked at Naruto clenched arm, he could just feel the strength from the all the veins he had on his arm.
"Yes. Now, let me show why I have no fear of anything." Naruto said before he grabbed a rock from the ground and crushed it.
DJ gulped as he saw the sand fall out of Naruto hand, it didn't take a genius to figure that this was formed from the crushed rocks.
"Do you understand now, DJ?" Naruto said as he walked out of the pit, DJ could only nod his head with a shock expression.
"Now, come on. We need to go meet someone." Naruto said as he waved his hand at DJ.
"Wait, who are we going to meet?" DJ asked after getting out of his shocked state.
"Your trainer." Naruto said.
"Who?" DJ asked.
"ME!" DJ looked to see chef in a military suit and a dark green hat. He was carrying a box filled with different books and placed it next to Naruto.
"Chef is my trainer?" DJ eyes widened as he looked at the cook.
"Yeah, Chef has some experience in training soldier so he perfect to be your trainer." Naruto said as he handed DJ over to chef.
The cook walked over the nervous momma boy and glared at him with his eyes covered by his sunglasses.
"Listen well and listen good, maggot. I am going to hear no complaint from you. Is that clear?" Chef said as he pokes at DJ chest.
"Yes s-sir." DJ said nervously as he made a salute to the cook.
"Good, now. Follow me." Chef said as he waved his hand to lead the poor giant to the mess-hall.
"Make sure your train him well, chef." Naruto waved his hand in goodbye before he picked up the box of books and looked back towards the camp.
The books were different information on the human body and medical herds, he was going to use this stuff to see if he could create something to help Beth get over her trauma.
He was trying to see if he could create a formula that could help improve the skin and get rid of all the damage to its body.
He not only wanted to do this to help Beth but also see if he could use the formula to start a beauty salon, it was a business idea he had produced along the way.
Naruto walked towards his house but was stopped along the way by heather.
"What do you want heather?" Naruto asked the scowling girl.
"I need you to reconstruct my bed and make it a better one." Heather demanded as she crossed her arms.
"no." Naruto simply said to the girl.
"Why?" Heather asked with widen eyes.
"Chris said we can't make changes to anything around the camp with his permission." Naruto said with a shrug of his shoulders.
"I'm pretty sure you can make an exception for me, right?" heather said as she tried to strike a pose to seduce the counselor.
"Nope." Naruto said blankly, not at all swayed by heather beauty.
"Why not? You are already giving special treatment to the weird girl and the bimbo chick, why can't you give me one?" Heather before she recoiled back after seeing the angry look on Naruto face.
"Because unlike them, I don't like you." Naruto said with a frown, he did not like the nickname's heather gave to Izzy and Lindsay one bit.
"Is it for the same reason as Courtney." Heather said with her hand on her hips, she knew exactly what kind of person she was and wasn't going to act like she was a nice girl.
"Yes, actually. But I think I like you more than Courtney." Naruto said with a slight smile on his face.
"Oh, and why is that?" Heather asked with a little surprise in her eyes.
"Because unlike Courtney, you don't try to hide it and you're just being yourself." Naruto like Heather Better cause she doesn't his who she was and appeared true to the world.
"Well of course, I'm not like those losers who hide behind a mask. I know what I want and am willing to do anything for it." Heather said with a small flame in her eyes.
"And I like you for that, but the answer is still no." Naruto said with a smile while he tried to head off to his house before he was stopped by heather.
"Fine, what will it take for you to change my bed?" Heather said with a growl, she hated how helpless she was in front of the counselor.
"How about this. if you can convince this person to agree to your proposal, I'll do it." Naruto said with a small chuckle in his voice, he had thought of a nice prank to play on the girl.
"Really, who?!" Heather eyes perked up at the prospect of her demand being fulfilled.
"Dawn." Naruto said with a mischievous glint in his eye.
"The nature freak?!" Heather said with widen eyes before she was bonked on the head by Naruto.
"Ooww…what was that for!" Heather said as she rubbed her head.
"You should stop giving out those insulting names if you want to get what you want." Naruto said with a glare before walking off towards his house.
He may not have been the best person to say that given his track records, he had given out lots of insulting nicknames to everyone around like pervy-sage.
The only difference between him and heather nicknames was that he did because it was funny while heather just gives out nicknames to people because she was disgust by them and felt it not worth remembering their names.
Heather sent a deadly glare at the blonde counselor before she started to walk towards the forest, looking for Dawn.
Naruto dropped the box next to his desk; he was thankful for his new super brain because things are going a lot faster than he originally thought it would take.
His adjustment to his new world was going great thanks to his brain being able to process and install the latest information at lightning speeds.
He was confident that he could create a new beauty formula in a day with these books and be able to start Beth training tomorrow.
Naruto picked up a book about different medical herbs and was about to start reading until he heard a knock on the door.
He placed the book down and walked towards the door, he was surprised to find Bridgette at the door with an injured seagull trapped in a plastic wrap.
"Ohm, hi Mr. Naruto. Can you help this seagull." Bridgette asked nervously as she helped the injured bird.
"What happened to it?" Naruto asked worried as he easily ripped apart the plastic wrap and carried the injured bird into his house.
He placed it gently on the table and ran around the house to see if he had any medical tools to help with the seagull. He was disappointed when there wasn't any.
"Bridgette, you stay here and watch the seagull. I'm going to find chef if he has any medical kits." Naruto said worriedly before he zipped away from the house and ran towards the mess-hall.
Bridgette watched as Naruto disappeared right before her eyes, she was shocked by the speed of the counselor until she heard a weak cry from the seagull.
She ran towards the injured seagull and gently harassed the bird to relieve it from the pain.
She was glad she was able to get the injured creature to help as fast as she could, she was worried sick about its health after she had found it lying right down on the beach.
She was able to spot it because she was doing some sweet surfing time with Geoff, they were competing to see who the better surfer was.
The competition had ended early after she saw the bird and ran towards Naruto cabin since she thought he might the only person that could and would save the bird.
She found tissue from the kitchen and used it to wipe some blood off.
"I'm back"
Bridgette turned back to see that Naruto was back with a medical kit, he walked up towards the seagull and opened the kit.
"Alright Bridgette, I might need some help with this. Are you willing to help me?" Naruto asked as he laid out the material within the kit.
"Yeah, that fine with me." Bridgette readily agreed with the blonde request since she couldn't just watch the poor animal suffer without offering her help.
"Thanks Bridgette." Naruto said with an appreciated tone, The two soon started working on healing the bird.
It had taken them 10 minutes, but they were relieved to see that bird was quickly healing from its injuries.
"Hey, it is alright now. Simon." Naruto cozily said as the bandaged bird rested peacefully on his chest.
"Simon?" Bridgette asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah, I thought the new name would fit nicely with him. What, is it bad?" Naruto said as he nuzzled Simone.
"No, it's fine." Bridgette said with a small chuckle, she was surprised that someone that strong and big could be so sweet and gentle.
"So, do you know how Simon got hurt?" Naruto asked as he placed Simon on the desk before he grabbed a small blanket and covered Simon with it.
"I'm pretty sure the sharks were trying to eat him, but he was able to narrowly escape their pursuit." Bridgette said with a little certainty since she did see some sharks swimming near it.
"Well, that makes sense. I should go feed those guys when I have some free time." Naruto said as he tapped his chin, he could use some of the meat in the storage to feed them so this wouldn't happen again.
"Yeah, what going to happen to Simon?" Bridgette said as she caressed the small little bird, she almost squeaked once it nuzzled onto her hand.
"I'm think about keep Simon with me for a while before he all better and then letting him go." Naruto said with smile as he placed the stuff back into the medical kit.
"that's nice of you…is it okay if I visit Simon sometimes?" Bridgette asked with a small plea in her voice.
"that's fine with me cause it seems Simon really likes you." Naruto said with a small chuckle.
"Now, I think we should leave Simon alone for now since he does need his rest." Naruto said as he traced his hand on Simone body, Bridgette nodded and walked towards the door.
"See you later, Naruto." Bridgette said before she closed the door.
Naruto took one final look at Simon before he went back to his desk for some reading.
hours later
Naruto groaned as he began to stretch his body. he didn't know how long he had been at this spot for, but he could tell from the falling sun that he was here for too goddamn long.
He looked down at the stack of paper on his desk with a smile. At the very least, he had finished the books and created his very own beauty formula.
He just needed to make it and test it out to see the result.
Naruto got up from his chair and rubbed his stomach, he was starving from doing all that work.
He was partially surprised that he was even able to do that, a younger version of him could never sit that long and spend all that time reading books.
I guess he had truly grown up from his younger self.
'What should I make for dinner…hum, maybe jerk chicken and rice.' Naruto thought as he put on his apron and stepped into the kitchen.
He maybe patting himself on the back here, but he had gotten really good at cooking very fast. he had gone from a novice to an expert at cooking.
Naruto hummed a little song as he started cooking, he soon however turned his eyes to the door as he had heard someone come in.
"Hi Naru, is it okay if I hide here?"
Naruto looked at see Lindsay come into the kitchen.
"What happened to you?" naruto asked since Lindsay looked exhausted.
"I was chased around the camp by everyone." Lindsay said as she sat down on one of the chairs.
"Oh yeah, are they still chasing you?" naruto said, he had remembered that some of the campers were chasing Lindsay.
"I don't think so, I'm pretty sure they gave up after a while." Lindsay said, she hadn't seen any of the campers after running for a while.
"So anyways, what are you cooking?" Lindsay asked the Chef.
"Oh, I'm making jerk chicken and rice." Naruto said as he placed tin foil over the pot.
"Oohh, I love jerk chicken and rice. It was one of my favorite dishes when I visited Jamaica." Lindsay cheered said as she remembered her time in Jamaica.
"You visited Jamaica?" naruto asked curiously, he was curious about Jamaica since it was one of the places he wanted to visit after the show.
Japan was number one since it resembled his home the most and he wanted to see it history.
"Yeah, daddy went there to make a deal with a meat factory, and he took us with him." Lindsay said with a smile.
"Your dad was making a deal in Jamaica? Why?" naruto asked with a raised eyebrow.
Jamaica was thousand of miles away from Canada, what could they want from a farm all the way over here.
"Well, they wanted a partnership for daddy animals." Lindsay said with a small pout, disliking the fact that many of the animals were 'traded' away.
"Wait, Lindsay. How big was your dad's farm?" naruto asked since it seemed Lindsay family situation was far different from what he expected.
"Well, daddy said it was about 300,000 acres of land." Lindsay said with a waved her hand since she didn't know the exact amount.
"300,000 acres!" naruto said in shock, that was an exaggerated amount of land.
"Lindsay, just who is father?" naruto asked with widen eyes.
"Alexander tops." Lindsay simply said as naruto body froze.
"Wait do you mean, the alexander tops. Owner of the tops farm, one of the largest farms in Canada." Naruto said with an unclenched jaw, he had studied up on the social structure of Canada since Chris had forced it onto him.
"Wait, is daddy rich." Lindsay asked with a tilted head.
"Yes, he one of the richest people in Canada. How do you not know?" naruto asked with a raised eyebrow.
"didn't he take you to those expensive gatherings or parties where he meets with his rich friends." Naruto asked to which Lindsay shook her head.
"No, daddy always left me home since he knew that I wasn't okay with meet with people yet." Lindsay said with her head down.
"Oh, I'm so sorry. I should have been more considerate." Naruto quickly apologized to the poor girl; he blamed himself for his stupidity.
"It's alright, naru." Lindsay said as she waved her hand to calm the blonde down.
Naruto rubbed his head and walked back to the kitchen to get rid of the awkward situation.
He found that his jerk chicken and rice was ready and placed them into two plates. He placed one of the plates in front of Lindsay.
"Thank you, naru." Lindsay said before she ate into her food.
"It no problem at all." Naruto said before the two went into complete silence from each other.
The sounds of crickets could be heard across the silent dining room. Naruto finally had enough of the awkward silence and placed his fork down.
"Lindsay, can I ask why you even came to this show." Naruto said as he found it hard to believe the daughter of a billionaire would even come to this show.
100,000 would seem a lot to anyone else on this island but Lindsay was someone who shouldn't even care about million dollars.
"I came to the island hoping I could make some new friends on the show." Lindsay said as she stood there silently with her head down.
"But I think I got my hopes up cause I haven't even made on friend on this island." Lindsay said with tears in her eyes before she tried to wipe them away.
Naruto was heartbroken at the sight of the girl and quickly got up from his seat to go comfort the girl.
"What are you talking about, Lindsay. Aren't I your friend?" naruto asked as he comforted the girl, Lindsay froze in her tracks and look up at the blonde counselor with red eyes.
"Wait, you think I'm your friend?" Lindsay asked with a few hiccups in her voice.
"of course, who wouldn't want to be friend with a sweet girl like you Lindsay." Naruto said with the brightest smile he could bring.
Lindsay surprised the blonde with a deep hug, she gripped gripped onto his him as tears fell from her eyes.
Naruto comforted the girl and patted her on the back. His heart shook a little as he comforted the girl.
He didn't know why but he felt a sort of connection to Lindsay in a weird way, a connection between two kindred souls that have experienced the same suffering.
Something lit up in Naruto heart, the desire to protect Lindsay.
"Hey, Lindsay. Can you tell me about your time in Jamaica." Naruto asked, wanting to know more about Lindsay.
"Are you sure? It a pretty long story." Lindsay wiped away her tears as she asked the blonde counselor.
"It fine, I would mind a story while we eat." Naruto said as he and Lindsay sat back down onto their seat.
"Well, there so much to talk about. Ohh, like their clothes, there so vibrant and beautiful…" Lindsay started her story while Naruto listen closely with his full attention.
Soon, time past and the moon was about to rise up. Naruto was at the doorway, saying goodnight to Lindsay.
"You sure you don't want to walk you back?" Naruto asked worriedly.
"It fine, I can handle myself." Lindsay waved it off, they were only a short distance from the cabins anyways.
"Well, alright." Naruto stopped his worry and just let Lindsay do what she wanted.
"Goodnight, Lindsay." Naruto said to the girl.
"Goodnight to you too, naru." Lindsay commented beck to the whiskered man.
She started to walk back to the cabin before stopping after a few steps and turn to look at Naruto.
"Hey, naru. Can I ask you a question?" Lindsay asked while clutching her hands near her chest.
Naruto raised his eyebrow at the worried look on Lindsay before commenting. "Sure, ask away."
"…were you serious when you said you were my friend." Naruto was taken back by her question before his eyes soften on the little girl.
"Of course, Lindsay." The girl smiled at his answer and walked up to him.
"Pinky promise?" Lindsay held out her pinky infront of Naruto, wanting him to swear on the most scared of promises.
"Pinky promise." Naruto brought his pinky up towards Lindsay and intertwined with hers.
"Thank you, naru." Lindsay eyes began it water while looking at their pinkies.
"It really nothing." Naruto rubbed the back of head embarrassedly.
"Naru, can you lean down?" Lindsay asked the giant.
Naruto shrugged his shoulder before he agreed to Lindsay request. Naruto lowered his head down to Lindsay level.
Naruto eyes soon widen as he felt soft, and Lucious lips impacted his cheek.
Naruto stared at the girl with both surprise and embarrassment written all over his face.
He was about to question Lindsay for her actions but soon realized that Lindsay ran away after kissing him.
Naruto stood there frozen in his tracks, unsure on how to process what just happened.
He just touched the check where Lindsay kissed him before he headed back into his house.
a new morning
A new day shined upon camp wawanakwa; Naruto was currently getting himself ready to loser island to meet up with Beth.
He started the steamboat before he heard footsteps coming his way, he turned around to see who it was.
"Hey, naru."
Naruto face falter and blushed a little as he stared at the newly arrived Lindsay.
He was still embarrassed by the little kiss from yesterday and can't fully look at Lindsay in the eyes.
"Hey Lindsay. Do you need anything." Naruto coughed into his fist, trying to recompose himself.
"I was going to ask you question, but I seems you busy." Lindsay said as she looked at the luggage on the boat.
"It fine, I can spare a few minutes for you." Naruto didn't have to be there at the loser island right now anyways.
"If it okay with you then…" Lindsay said before she pulled out two bandannas, a orange one and a yellow one.
"Which bandana do you I look better in." Naruto looked at the two and though about it for a few moments before he answered.
"The orange one since the yellow one would blend into your hair and not stand out." Naruto said as he pointed to the orange bandana.
"I knew it." Lindsay said before she put the yellow one away and wrapped the orange one around her head.
"Hey, naru. Can you tie this for me?" Lindsay asked with her hands holding the tips of the bandana behind her back.
Naruto nodded and quickly got out of the boat to fulfill Lindsay request.
"It done." Naruto said after finished the last touches on the bandana.
"So how do I look in it?" Lindsay asked before she did twirl and stopping right infront of Naruto with her hands together.
"As beautiful as always." Naruto said as he playfully rolled his eyes. Lindsay eyes brightened up after the compliment and giggled.
"Oohh, thank you for the compliment. Now be safe on your trip and come back soon." Lindsay said as she waved goodbye to naruto.
"Gez, you're making it sound like I'm going to be gone forever." Naruto laughed as he waved goodbye to Lindsay before he started the boat and head towards the loser island.
The trip was a short one since the island was only a few miles away from the show.
Naruto got off the boat with his stuff and walked towards the booth stand where he saw Beth drink a martini.
"Naruto! You're here!" Beth yelled excitedly as she got up and ran to hug her best friend/mentor.
"Hello, Beth. It good to see you again." Naruto said as he hugged the girl back.
"So how was your stay at the resort." Naruto asked after he got out of the hug.
"Amazing! The food here is to die for and the message area was heavenly!" Beth said as she remembered her amazing time on the resort.
"I'm glad you like the resort." Naruto chuckled at the small girl before he moved along.
"Yeah. Everything on this island is amazing." Beth said with sparkles in her eyes.
"Yeah. Chris spent a lot of money building this place." Naruto whistles at the resort, this was one of Chris prized possessions and he could see why that is.
"Now come along, we a long road ahead of us." Naruto waved his hand for Beth to follow.
"Hey, Naruto. Can I ask a question." Naruto stopped and turned back to the girl.
"Sure." Naruto shrugged his shoulders while looking Beth.
"Ohm, where Ezekiel?" This had been on Beth mind since she got here.
the island was supposed to be for eliminated campers, but she didn't see Ezekiel anywhere.
"He in a hospital far away from here." Naruto said with a frown since he didn't like talking about Ezekiel.
"So, he back with his family?" Beth asked to which Naruto nodded.
"Then aren't you worried his family will press charges against you?" Beth asks worriedly before her became confused as Naruto started laughing.
"Thai is no laughing matter, Naruto. You could go to jail for it!" Beth shouted at the man before he motioned her to calm down.
"It right, Beth. I'm not worried cause they cannot sue us." Beth face grew confused at Naruto words.
"Why can't they?" Beth asked curiously.
"It stated within the contracts that families can not sue us for any damages caused by the challenges." Naruto said with a smirk.
"I mean come on; you really think no family tried to sue on the first episode. We literally made you all jump into shark infested waters." Beth stared at the man with a shocked expression.
"Now, come on. We must get going." Naruto said as he motioned Beth to follow along.
Beth got out of her shocked state and ran towards Naruto.
"So, what are we going to do first?" Beth asked with great anticipation, she had been waiting think about how her journey to self-improvement could start since she got here.
"We first have to tackle the problem at it core value." Naruto said with a serious face.
"Which is?" Beth asked with a little shock in her voice, surprised by the seriousness of naruto tone.
"Your appearance, Beth." Naruto said as he looked down onto the girl.
"You may not think it, but you hate yourself. Beth." Naruto said as he narrowed his eyes onto Beth.
"The years of bullying has caused your mind to subconscious think of the person before you as a failure and a waste of space."
"Is it for this reason, that no matter how much compliment anyone could give you. You will always break down the moment anyone insult you."
"The only way to combat this is to reforge yourself into a better version of you. Only this way can you ride yourself of the influence of your bullies and be reborn like the might phoenix."
"Do you understand what I am saying, Beth." Naruto asked the girl below him.
Beth stood there in silence as she contemplated Naruto words, no matter how she though about. His words spoke the truth, and she could not deny it.
He was right.
If she genuinely wanted to change for the better, this was first step.
"Yes, I'm ready." Beth said with pure conviction within her eyes.
"Good, now come on. We can't keep your trainer waiting." Naruto said as he walked towards the gym.
"Wait, you got me a trainer?" Beth asked in surprised.
"Yeah, since I cannot be here all the time. I though maybe a trainer could help while I'm gone." Naruto said before he was pulled into a tight by Beth.
"Thank you so much." Beth said since a private trainer was not a cheap thing to get.
"It alright." Naruto said as he hugged the girl before they both entered the gym.
It was filled with the most high-tech equipment out there, there was even a protein stand right at the corner of the gym.
At the center of the gym was a girl, she was African American girl with blue hair and pink buzz cut on the sides. She wore a pink shirt and blue pants along with high-knee socks and a purple shoe.
"Hello, there. Are you Stephanie?" naruto asked after he and Beth walked over to her.
"Yes, I am. Are you naruto Uzumaki, my employer." Stephanie asked.
"Yes, I am." Naruto answered back.
"Really, cause you don't look like someone who needs my training." Steph whistled as she looked naruto up and down, she was mighty impressed by the blonde man physique.
"Oh, it not for me. It for my friend, Beth." Naruto as he moved away so Beth could come and greet Steph.
"Hello there, I'm Beth." Beth said as she held out her hand to greet Steph to which she responds did to.
"Okay, that makes more sense. So, what are your goal." Steph said as she pulled out a clipboard to figure her training plan for Beth.
"Well, self-improvement." Beth said nervously, naruto soon raised an eyebrow because he could physically see Steph getting happier after Beth said that.
"Well, that good for you Beth. Now I just need you to fill out some forms to get your started." Stephanie said as she pulled out some paper from her clipboard.
Naruto sat down on one of the chairs as the two started to formulate their plans for training. It took awhile but Stephanie was able to create a plan for Beth.
They would focus more on exercises that focused on weight-loss and muscle definition so running on the treadmill was the first thing Beth did.
Naruto got up from his seat and walked towards Steph to start a conversation since he was bored just sitting there.
"You seemed oddly happy that Beth chose the self-improvement route." Naruto asked since it had been on his mind for a while.
"Well yeah, helping other improve themselves was the whole reason I even became a trainer in the first place." Steph said with a beaming smile on her face.
"Really, and here I though was for the pay?" Naruto joked a little with girl, her personal training was not cheap at all.
"Well, I'm going to deny that but at the core. I simply wanted to help other." Steph smiled as she looked at Beth.
"I love moments like these, helping people grow into the person they want to be just gives the chills and makes my day bright up." Steph smiled softly.
"that's very admirable of you Steph." Naruto said with a smile, happy that there are such selfless people in the world.
"Aww shucks, it really nothing." Steph said as she rubbed her arm with a blush.
"It really the people that chose self-improvement that are really something. Not a lot of people have the courage to see their flaws and try to work on it." Steph said as she looked at the hard-working Beth.
"Yeah, it seems that no matter what kind of person you are. They still have their pride, and few are willing to show their flaws." Naruto smiled as he looked at Beth, Steph nodded as he was right.
"I have to ask though; how long have you been working out?" Steph asked, naruto physique was one of the most impressive one she had ever laid her eyes on.
"To be honest, I didn't really do much work." Naruto said as he rubbed the back of his head.
"That impossible, you must've trained for years to get such body mass and definition." Steph said as she examined naruto for everything.
"Yeah, I was basically 'born' with this." Naruto said with a sweatdrop since it was partially true.
"I'm going to see how Beth is doing." Steph nodded while Naruto walked towards the seating girl.
"How are you doing, Beth?" Naruto asked the running girl.
"Fine.(ha)..but I don't think..(ha). I'll be able to meet the goal…(ha)" Beth panted in exhaustion as she spoke.
Beth adjective was to run 10 minutes on the treadmill but it only been 5 minutes and she already feels like she about to pass out.
"Hey, that alright. No accomplish the goal in their first try, so don't worry." Naruto tried to reassure the girl.
"Bu-but I can't…(ha) start off my journey with a failure?" Beth body sulked down once she spoke.
"That doesn't matter, Beth. Its not like you're trying to be athlete or something. All you're doing is trying to improve yourself." Naruto told the girl but all that did was confused her.
"Huh..(ha).but wasn't my goal supposed.(ha)..to destroy my current self and create a better…(ha) version of myself." Beth asked with a surprised look.
"Yes, but you'd thinking about it all wrong." Naruto laughed a little at Beth's misunderstand of what he wanted her to do.
"I am?" Beth raised her eyebrows at the whiskered man.
"That right." Naruto nodded.
"Instead of trying to accomplish every goal we set for you. It better to think about working your body to the absolute limit and working beyond that." Naruto clenched his fist for the dramatics.
"This is how a person journey begins, by going beyond what they already thought was possible for them." Naruto said with a bright smile on his face.
"Understand that it's okay if you make it today, you have other times to accomplish. Only work on use everything you have on push beyond your limit. Do you understand me, Beth." Naruto looked at the girl to see if she understands his message.
"I think I..(ha). Understand your message." Beth nodded, feeling like better about herself already.
"Good. Then clench your fist, grit your teeth, and get running!" Beth nodded before she started to follow Naruto instructions and by surprised, she was able to stay on longer that she should've.
"Atta girl." Naruto praised Beth before he walked off towards the exit.
"Alright, I need to go set something up. Take Beth to the spa after your done working out. Okay." Naruto said as she walked away from the gym.
Steph nodded as she narrowed her eyes on the leaving figure before going staring back at Beth to see her progress.
some time later
The two girls walked down the hall and into the spa room, they had finished the workout session and were going to meet up with naruto just like he asked.
They walked in and saw naruto standing there with a bowl of blue liquid.
"What is that?" Steph asked as she and Beth stared into the bowl.
"a beauty cream that I made from over a dozen medial herbs." Naruto said as he placed the bowl down, this was the final product of his research.
"How effective is it?" Beth asked as she pointed to the bowl.
"Very effective, now sit down." Naruto said as the two sat down on the message chairs.
"Alright, I'm going to start applying it now." Naruto said as he dipped his hand into the bowl and started applying it onto Beth and Steph face.
"How does it work?" Beth asked while Naruto was applying it.
"Well, the liquid is supposed to absorb all the excess amount of fat, germs, and all kinds of harmful chemicals off your skin." Naruto answered with a confident smirk.
"So, something like a sponge?" Steph asked.
"Yes, good analogy." Naruto smiled as he snapped his finger at Steph.
"The Liquid will turn black once it absorbs all that it can hold, so you'll know when it done." Naruto said after finish applying the cream.
The two started to relax as the creamed started to do it magic, naruto sat down and started to write down the progress of the cream to see if there are anything he could improve it.
"Wow, it feels so cool and nice on my face." Beth said as she enjoyed the refreshing feeling of the cream.
"Yeah, it feels so nice…how long does it take, anyways." Steph asked naruto.
"a couple of minutes." Naruto said as he looked at their faces, he could see that the cream was already taking of the excess fat and germs on the faces already.
The two girls got comfortable in their seats and started to relax for the few minutes until naruto saw that the liquid has started to turn black.
"Alright, time to wash it off girls." Naruto said as the two girls got up and walked to the sink.
They washed off the cream and amazed by it effects.
"Wow, my skin feels amazing." Steph said as she rubbed her face.
"My pimples have grown smaller, and my skin is way softer." Beth said as she examined herself close in the mirror.
"The cream must be working." Naruto said with a smile.
"Alright, now Beth. I want you to use this ever day after working out. Okay." Naruto said as he handed her the bowl, Beth nodded before naruto checked the time.
"It seemed I have to go back now." Naruto said with a frown, Chris had wanted him back as early as possible since tomorrow was a challenged day.
"Goodbye you two, enjoy your time on the resort." Naruto said before he headed towards the docks.
He made his way back to the camp and was surprised to see Lindsay waiting for him.
"Hey Lindsay, how has your day been." Naruto asked as he got off the boat and walked towards Lindsay.
"The day was great, but I really missed your food." Lindsay said with a little disgust in her tone. Chef food was terrible, and she never wanted to eat it again.
"If your still hungry, I can whip up something for you to eat." Naruto said a small chuckle.
"Really! Oh, that so great. can you make me Santa fe chicken?" Lindsay asked to which naruto nodded.
The two walked back to his house to have a nice dinner.
