Chapter 3 - Ino

'Naruto Uzumaki.'

Dark, it was so dark. Everything is black.

"Oi, Naruto."

So familiar, still, he didn't know who it was.

"You okay?"

Filled with so much kindness that it made him suspicious.

...

He recognized it now.

"You...you demon."

"Throw at it, K---a!!"

"Haha!! Loser!!!!"

A rock hit his head.

He opened his eyes. Red triangles, black eyes, a grin....

Kiba Inuzuka.

A crowd gathered around. He thought they were going to help him.

He thought.

Kiba picked up a stone.

He is one of them.

The stone hit his head.

I hate Kiba Inuzuka.

Naruto yelped and rubbed his forehead as a photo frame fell and hit his temple.

"Agh damn it," He groaned, throwing the photo frame aside. Another nightmare.

What was the nightmare about again?

He thought hard and rolled his eyes. 'Ugh, whatever. I'll get out of bed now.'

'I hate this, but...' Naruto sighed as he entered the Konoha library in a henge.

"Good morning, shinobi-san," A woman with the name tag 'Yoko Miyagawa' greeted, eyeing his hitai-ate. "How can I help you?"

"Are there any books about elemental jutsu's?" Naruto asked.

"Yes, you can find them in the ninja section. Your name, sir?" Yoko asked.

"Na-Naoki. Naoki...Kurihara," Naruto answered.

"Please fill in this form, shnobi-san," Yoko said, handing him a paper and a pen.

'D-Damn it...' Naruto thought. 'I don't know if there's a Naoki Kurihara in the village......I'll just write my name but messier. Hopefully she doesn't find out.'

"Here you go, Mi...yagawa-san," Naruto smiled.

"Ah, okay," Yoko stuffed the form in a file filled with tons of other forms without sparing it a glance.

'Safe.'

Naruto walked down the streets with a book in his hand, stopping in his steps as he heard a bark behind him.

"Ho? Narutoo!!! Fancy seeing you reading a book, huh??? RARE!!!" Kiba grinned as he skipped to the side of his friend, Akamaru on top of his head. "What's it about?"

"Chakra elements," Naruto answered as he flipped a page.

"Chakra elements? Woah, dude, this is a harder version, you sure you can read it?" Kiba poked at the book. "Where'd you get that anyways?"

"The library, I used a henge and the worker was completely fooled!!! Hah, cool huh?" Naruto grinned.

"Yeah, yeah whatever," Kiba rolled his eyes. "Oh, and I heard Ino's going on a C-rank mission next week, it was specially for her, Hokage-sama wanted you and me to go with her."

"Ino...?" Naruto blinked. "But..."

"Yeah, I know," Kiba sighed. "Maybe Hokage-sama doesn't know about what happened. You can tell her, hopefully she'll remove you from the mission."

"No, it's okay," Naruto's eyes moved back to his book.

"Me!? Going on a mission with two damn loudmouths!?!?! What the heck is with Hokage-sama?" Ino huffed.

"Ino, don't talk about Hokage-sama like that. And who are those two loudmouths you mentioned?" Nozuki sighed. 

(Lmao I don't know her mom's name so here's a weird combination of the voice actor's first and last name)

"The deadlast demon and that stupid Inuzuka," Ino crossed her arms.

"Well, aren't you a loudmouth too..." Inoichi muttered under his breath.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY, DAD!?!?!" Ino shouted.

"Nothing, nothing," Inoichi shook his head.

"And Ino," he narrowed his eyes.

"What?" Ino frowned.

"You can't just call people a demon like that. It's worse than an insult for people, especially that boy, Naruto," Inoichi said.

"Yeah, whatever...." Ino rolled her eyes. 'How did dad know the deadlast's name anyways?'
