Ino's Oniichan (Naruto) 1

A Helpful Hand

I wake up to a tapping at my bedroom window. There I see Naruto with a bucket of paint and some brushes. Ugh... Why. I lazily get up and walk over to the window and unlatch it.
"What is it this time Naruto?" I say with a yawn.
"Since you ditched me to hang out with Ms. Princess you've got to help me with my latest prank." Naruto exclaims with a giant grin.
"No." I say heading back for my bed.
"Please!" Naruto yells putting his hands together and doing his best puppy dog expression.
"Let me think... No." I say flopping onto my bed.

         "I'll wake up Ino." My eyes widen at that statement. Ino was like an experiment gone wrong in the mornings. Especially if woken up to soon.
"Alright, alright." I grumble walking to my dresser and pulling out my everyday attire which consisted of a white t-shirt and black ninja pants (like Kakashi's) and a weapons pouch. "Let me get dressed Naruto. Unless you just want to witness me in all my naked glory."
"Um, I'm good." Naruto says while turning around.

            I dress quickly then jump out the window landing in front of Naruto.
"So what are we going to do number one knucklehead?" I ask.
"We're going to paint the great Hokage faces." Naruto says smiling wickedly.
"Nope, no, and nodda." I say turning on my heel to return to the warm cave called my room.
"But you said you would! Come on all you have to do is keep an eye out for me." I sigh.
"Fine."
----------------------------------------------

"Why did I ever agree to this, the world may never know." I mutter while Naruto and I were previously being chased by chunnins.
"Ichirou, under here!" Naruto yells while pulling up a sheet of paper that looked exactly like the fence behind us.
"Haha! That was to easy!" Naruto says while dropping the sheet and scratching the back of his head.
"I wouldn't say that Naruto." I say.
"Huh?"
"Oh yeah Naruto!" Iruka yells.

         Naruto jumps in the air and lands on his butt.
"Iruka sensei?! What are you doing here?" Naruto asks.
"No what are you two doing here you're supposed to be in class." Iruka then has to drag Naruto back to the academy tied up in ropes and I just follow behind silently.
"Why didn't you warn me about Iruka Sensei?!" Naruto asks trying to escape his confines.
"Because we have the transformation justu test today and you need the points. Let's admit it Naruto your grades suck. If you stopped with the pranks they could be just as good as Sasuke's."
"Y-you really think so?" Naruto asks with teary eyes. I nod my head.

        After we finally make it back to the academy Iruka starts this whole big lecture.
"I expected this from you Naruto, but you too Ichirou?" I just shrugged.
"He dragged me into it. Plus he threatened to wake up Ino." This comment makes Iruka sweat drop.
"What would have been so bad about that?" Iruka asks.
"Trust me. You would know if you lived with her." I mumble making Ino glare at me. I simply wave back.
"Well since you two missed it, everyone will have to go over the transformation justu."

"Alright Sakura Haruno." Sakura goes up and turns into Iruka, next was Sasuke, and then Naruto.... And Naruto uses his sexy justu. I remember him using this same technique on me and he got really mad when it didn't work. Iruka flys back with a nose bleed which kinda freaks me out.
"Iruka sensei's a perv." Akito laughs from beside me. I'm guessing Iruka heard her because his face quickly whips around and looks her dead in the face. She immediately stops laughing.

I went up next, Akito, then Siri and so forth. After class Iruka kept Naruto and I back to clean up the Hokage faces.
"You're not going home until you scrub all this clean." Iruka shouts down to us.
"So what it's not like there's anyone waiting at home for me!" Naruto yells back. I look over at him sympathetically.
