Book One The Black Lion Old Version

golden deer the Land of Waves

If there's one thing Naruto hates more than anything, it's being on boats. It's so tedious, considering how long it takes. It feels slower than moving on land at least to him, and he feels like he wants to puke his guts out. The golden deer class are on a ship that the church provides; they hire a sailor to take them to their destination. It sucks they're on their second day of a 7-day journey. He hates it; he feels sick; he wants to puke every moment the boat rocks.

"I take it boats aren't your thing?"asked Claude.

"I ha-"he put his hand on his mouth as of trying to stop himself from throwing up.

"damn I never thought you had a bad case of motion sickness"Claude said feeling bad for him he leaned at the edge of the boat it was a large ship in particular it was enough for 50 people to fit he lean towards the right side.

"I hate this,"Naruto said, complaining.

"Could be worse,"said Claude.

"This is pathetic I mean seriously motion sickness?"Kyubi said in a not so mocking tone.

"I do not want to do this on the way back"he threw up whatever he ate it was at the side of the boat into the ocean.

"Damn"said Raphael.

"are you okay?"Said Hilda with concern

"I have not been able to have a full meal in days because of this I'll" he didn't get a chance to finish, he puked again.

"Are you sure it's not motion sickness or some bad food you ate?"asked Kakashi, concerned. Kakashi put his hand on Naruto's forehead to do a check up.

"Food poisoning well you're going to be in your quarters until you're well enough to move here I'll give you some food that your body won't reject"he gave him some pills Naruto took them and drunk a glass of water and laid down.

"You're assigning me to take care of Naruto?" asked Dorothea, not happy with the prospect of being in the same room as him.

"Yes, unlike the others here, you do have some healing magic, though not as good as Marianne's. You could help Naruto relieve some of the worse of his symptoms so he could recover faster." Kakashi didn't leave her any room to refuse.

"I'll do as you ask, professor." Dorothea said, not wanting to argue.

She was given the food that Naruto should be eating. He would not like this food she knows but there was nothing that can be done. Naruto he was lying down on his back he looked miserable. She put the tray on his bed Naruto looked at her wondering why she was here?

"Is there any reason why you're here?"Naruto asked her curious on why she was here.

"Believe me I wouldn't be here by choice, professor Kakashi assigned me to help you until you are able to get out of bed.

"it was hard to tell what Naruto was thinking.

"Well I appreciate it, this could give us a chance to get to know each other better. We do have a lot of time after all and nothing but time."Naruto said with his trademark grin even if it was hard for him to smile due to him being sick.

"Don't count on that. I'm only doing this because Hinaa would be sad if something happened to you."

Naruto can't help but notice that she called Hinata by a affectionate nickname.

"I just want to know why you hate me." he asked. Dorothea replied sharply and bluntly.

"Because I think you're a two-timing asshole who's playing with Hinaa's and Ingrid's hearts." Rather than getting defensive, Naruto remains calm.
