[二] Audio / Action

[believeit]

[The recent events had certainly left a lot for people to think about. Naruto is no different, the past few days spent comparing fake memories with the real thing. Mostly he was hung up on how normal the fake life had seemed, a (fake) lifetime spent with a huge, loving family he had never had until arriving in this place.

Out of everything though, there is one question that plagues him the most. Here it comes...]

[Audio]

So even though that place was fake, and the things we remembered from it aren't really real, we're not still like.... legally married or anything, right? Right?

I don't think I'm even old enough to be married y'know!

[YUP. Guess who has been carefully avoiding Tenten ever since things went back to normal. Apparently he can act like a proper ninja when he wants to. He is finally manning-up to face reality though.]

[Actually he isn't, but he had something else he wanted to ask over the journals, so figured he would just throw that in too.]

...Has anyone seen Sakura-chan?


[Action]

[Since Luceti returned to normal, Naruto hasn't been that sociable. Most of his time has been spent at home aside from the occasional trip out into the woods to train or to check in on people close to him that were not fake wives or family members.

Today though, he can be found behind the counter of Shikamaru's convenience store. He has absolutely no idea what he is doing still and with Shikamaru and Masaomi both away, the fate of Luceti's #1 Store™ had been left to the combined efforts of Korra and Naruto.

If it is still standing by the end of the week, it shall be a miracle.]

action; <333333333333333 x gillyun bilyun squrrd + swagswagswag

[fervidity]

[WOBBLE WOBBLE as she catches her bearings and dusts off her apron for no reason other than distraction.

AND THEN SHE TAKES OFF RUNNING, GRINNING OVER HER SHOULDER but not really running that fast]

Didn't say when I would tell you, ya know!

Catch up or I'm going to prank your dad without you!

<3333333 THIGNS before the other thigns

[believeit]

[SPEEDING UP to be beside Mom finally.]

What are we gonna do?

<3333333333 MY THIGNS EHEHE

[fervidity]

[RED HAIR FLYING BEHIND HER LIKE A FLAG OF UZUMAKI]

The seal doesn't allow people to move, right? It would probably work really well, holding him down and letting us do whatever we want to him. He's not a big fan of being tickled, ya know?

<33333333333333333;;

[believeit]

[HAIR NOT FLYING BECAUSE SHORT AND SPIKEY AND YELLOW :C]

So.. I'll hold him, you tickle! [Hehehe they're gonna defeat the HOKAGE]

<33333333333333333;; /holds in arms

[fervidity]

[AHAHA AWWW SORRY PRECIOUS YOU DIDN'T GET MOMS HAIR]

Sounds like a plan!

[And as they near their Uzumaki compound, Kushina will slow down and sneak towards the front door, listening in to see if the Yondaime Hokage is around to see them.]

... I think we're clear. [There's a wince as the front door squeaks and she peers inside, waving Naruto closer.]

<33333333333333333;; /never leaves

[believeit]

[Once they get closer he replaces the shouts with whispers, sneaking on closer behind her.]

Maybe he's in his office place? [Hey Mom, just taking a peek over your shoulder here. Nope, don't see him either.]

<33333333333333333;; /builds u pillowfort

[fervidity]

[Hello Naruto face on her shoulder.

Her eyes narrow towards the nearby door to his office and it's as good a guess as any. Before that though--]

Okay, I'll open the door. Are you ready to use the jutsu I taught you on your dad? He's fast so you have to get him as soon as I open it.

<33333333333333333;; /camps out in it

[believeit]

Of cou- [WHOOPS inside voice yeah] course I'm ready! Let's do it!

[Yeeeah he's all psyched up and ready to dish out those seals lets do it]

<33333333333333333;; /guards it *^*

[fervidity]

[HOPEFULLY HE DIDN'T HEAR.

DETERMINED NODS

Pranking is srs bsns. OKAY opening the door more and tip toe-ing over towards the office. Her hand settles on the knob and she waits for Naruto to give her the NOD OF READINESS.]

<33333333333333333;; best mom

[believeit]

[NODDING. He's as ready as he'll ever be.]

<33333333333333333;; /waves around spatula

[fervidity]

[Then her HAND TWISTS THE KNOB the DOOR FLIES OPEN

KUSHINA LOOKS IN TO SEE SURPRISED MINATO WHO CAN'T MOVE]

Gotc-!

[And it's an empty desk. No Minato.]

... Huh?

<33333333333333333;; /hugs some more

[believeit]

[AND HERE COMES NARUTO CHARGING IN AND DOING THOSE SEALS AND-]

Eh? Where is he?

<33333333333333333;; /hugguuuuu

[fervidity]

[Well, they can't shout and ask where he is since that would RUIN THE PRANK. He would expect something and be on guard because he's had YEARS of expecting Kushina's pranks.

Better double check anyway.

She walks to desk and checks under it jUST IN CASE.]

Not here.

<33333333333333333;; /hugguuuuu

[believeit]

[Well this is no fun! Way to ruin their awesome prank, Dad. Though maybe... maybe he is in the garden or something? Naruto goes to peer out a window, to see if he can see him.]

Uh.. upstairs maybe?

<33333333333333333;; /hugguuuuu

[fervidity]

Nowhere else to be.

[Unless he had taken to hiding BEFORE the prank. WAY TO RUIN AN AWESOME PRANK. Minato wasn't known for being a wuss though, he had proven that when he came to save her from the Bad Guys.]

Come on, better stay quiet too.

[SNEAK TOWARDS STAIRS]

If you use some shadow clones, you can tickle him too. [THEY HAVE PROBABLY SEEN HIS ABILITIES BY NOW IDK]

<33333333333333333;; /hugguuuuu

[believeit]

...Good idea.

[A little poof of smoke as he makes two clones beside him]

[Following Mom again as they creep upstairs all hush hush he better be up here. And not doing something awkward like not being dressed or something because wow no]

<33333333333333333;; /hugguuuuu

[fervidity]

[Well... Kushina probably wouldn't mind that. She'd blush a little and probably laugh at Naruto's reaction at seeing his dad getting dressed.

WAIT I WANT THIS TO HAPPEN NOW.

All four of them reach the stairs and shuffle towards the door to the bedroom. It's harder to keep four people quiet and there's a lot of footsteps in the hall. HOPEFULLY THEY CAN STILL CATCH HIM BY SURPRISE....

Hand on door let's do dis prank forreal doe]

<33333333333333333;; /snoozes

[believeit]

[Mom no do you want to SCAR YOUR PRECIOUS CHILD?

Okay hands ready again to do sealing stuff. The two clones nod that they're ready to go in and tackle Dad LETS DO DIS]

<33333333333333333;; /snooze by u

[fervidity]

[VERY

YES]

NODS BACK and THROWS OPEN DOOR

GO NARUTO GO]

<33333333333333333;; /snooze by u

[believeit]

[WOW RUDE whyyyyy would u do that 2 precious child

<33333333333333333;; /snooze by u

[fervidity]

[BECAUSE PARENTS

CHARGES IN RIGHT BEHIND HIM]

GOTC-!!

[...

Nope. Okay no seriously this is weird. Minato usually just TAKES HER PRANKS even if he know they are coming because he likes to humor her and she DOES catch him off guard usually.]

This is frustrating, ya know! Where is he? Geez.
