Of oddly misplaced caves | Event: Welcome

[orange_dattebayo]

When Naruto stepped out of the cave where he was training his nine tails power, he didn't expect to see this.

He expected waterfall, Gai-sensei and Yamato-taichou, not... not this village. It was village, right?
As curious as cat, he walked in the village, looking around at stores, houses and all the interesting places. No weapon store though. Weird. Maybe it wasn't shinobi village?

Wait- how did he ended up here!?

With a sigh, he sat down on the bench under a tree, with long look on his face. In just what kind of trouble he got into now?

"I have! Iruka gets mad at me when he finds me passed out from training though. He -lectures-!" He tossed up his hands. "I'm eight, not three!"

[orange_dattebayo]

He perked up:"Iruka-sensei is teaching you too? He taught me as well!" He grinned widely and laughed:"Yeah! He still tends to give me lectures when I get reckless and hurt myself."

[stillpure]

He stared at him blankly for a moment before choking on a laugh. "Iruka's not -teaching- me! He's my teammate!" He shoved himself to his feet. "And he's been soooo overprotective. He's got reason and all but..." He shook his head. "I don't let him in the compound at least so that keeps him out of trouble ne?"

[orange_dattebayo]

Oops! Misunderstanding. He laughed sheepishly:"Sorry, sorry. But yes, he is really overprotective." Wow, Iruka-sensei was with Itachi on team? He nodded:"Yep. I does."

[stillpure]

He nodded and wrinkled his nose. "He acts more like a big brother than a teammate a lot of the time, which is okay, but... I'm really -not- a little kid..."

[orange_dattebayo]

He scratched his cheek, chuckling:"But it is good to have a brother right? To know that someone cares for you," he smiled at him.

[stillpure]

He ducked his head with a flush. "But -I'm- the older brother."

[orange_dattebayo]

He grinned widely:"Sasuke right?" He patted him on the head. "See, your little brother is my teammate in future."

[stillpure]

He peeked up at him at that and gave him a smile. "I bet mom feeds you cookies -all- the time. She makes really good ones."

[orange_dattebayo]

He chuckled nervously, scratching back of the head:"Of course she does. Your mom is awesome."

[stillpure]

The reaction got a tiny frown, and he tilted his head to the side, then decided not to press. Well, not much. "She's not got -weird- about you again has she? I catch her muttering sometimes..."

[orange_dattebayo]

He shook his head:"Don't worry about your mom. She is amazing person, dattebayo." He got up from the bench.

[stillpure]

He frowned and then sighed, finding no fault with -that- statement. "So... can you teach me anything?"

[orange_dattebayo]

Teach him? Hmm... he didn't know what he could teach him. "Did you... ever practice climbing tree without your hands?" He grinned:"That's the exercise you use when you want to practice chakra control."

[stillpure]

He blinked at him. "...I've been able to do that since a week into being a genin."

[orange_dattebayo]

"Oh... um how about water?" Dammit! He knew nothing that he can teach Itachi.

[stillpure]

"Two weeks." He looked at him, expectant and patient.

[orange_dattebayo]

He scratched his chin:"Okay... um... how about kage bunshin?"

[stillpure]

He bit his lower lip. "I could try."

[orange_dattebayo]

He grinned and clapped his hands:"The signs for it are: serpent, tiger, ram." He did them, making a shadow clone appear next to him. "Concentrate your chakra, and try it."

[stillpure]

He watched him with utter focus, dark eyes intent before he carefully moved through the motions, looking to him for confirmation. Nothing actually happened. "How much chakra?"

[orange_dattebayo]

He rubbed back of his head:"Plenty... it's a really hard technique. Try molding chakra before trying again."

[stillpure]

He nodded and tried again... getting a rather sickly looking clone that poofed out of existence the second he turned to look at it. "...more?"

[orange_dattebayo]

He grinned:"Yep. Just a little bit more. But be careful not to use up all of your chakra!" he warned.

[stillpure]

He nodded and tried again, and while he got a clone that lasted for more than a few seconds, which made him smile... he promptly fainted.
