The Pain of Neglect (Naruto Fanfic)

Chapter 15: Clothes Shopping

Naruto POV

I stormed off and ended up in my old training grounds. I looked around and smiled at the memories of working out with Kura, that demon fox almost killed me! I mean, who makes a five year old stick on a tree for ten hours while dodging projectile bijuu bombs? I sighed and pulled out my seikatsu scroll. Might as well practice for a bit. I nicked my finger and drew a circle with my blood on the scroll. "Seikatsu Bushin No Jutsu!" The smoke filled the air and soon my bunshin popped out. The funny thing about seikatsu bunshins is that they are their own entity, essentially, they have their own personalities and beliefs. Mine,much to my dismay, was a much happier and annoying version of myself. "Sup boss! Can we go for ramen? Do you want to prank the village? Ooh! Ooh! Let's dye Kakashi's hair pink,and curl it with a.." I threw a punch and he flew back ten meters. "OH! You want to fight? Well bring it on Blondie!" "You're blonde too you nimrod!" I sighed and pulled myself into my fighting position. I had been working on a new technique, and this was the perfect time to start. "Boss." "What?" "I'm still in child idiot form." I looked at the clone and noticed the kill me orange suit, and baby fat. "Oh right. Hold on." I snapped my fingers and the clone changed into a black and white version of myself. Only his whisker marks were red. "Thank god! I hated being all bright and cheery. But orange and pranking are still awesome. So is ramen." "True, true." I nodded and he smirked, "We can talk about that later, let's fight! These students are no fun. They're all so weak! You gonna give me a challenge boss?" I pulled out my katana, "You betcha. Let's do this." I smirked and returned to my starting position. "Start!"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Kurama's POV

I walked through the Konoha market and looked through all the merchandise. Naru's birthday was tomorrow, and I had a huge party planned. All I needed now was his gift. "KURA CAN KAMI AND I GET ICE-CREAM!" "PLEASE KURAMA!" I turned to the idiots and bonked them on the heads. "SHUT UP! Seriously, if you two act like that, no one will believe that one of you is the goddess of light,and the other is an SS ranked nin with the powers of the ancient Kyūseishu clan and a guardian of light!" "But Kura...ice-cream..." They looked at me with puppy eyes and I sighed. "Fine you idiots. Go get ice cream. And while you are at it, go and get some new clothes, you two look ridiculous." "Ehh? What's wrong with our clothes Kurama?" I felt a tick mark grow on me head and I pointed at Kami. "You, are wearing a long white and gold dress, with no shoes and a golden headpiece that is the size of a small child. And you, you blue haired idiot," I whipped around and pointed at Nitsu, "Are wearing nothing but a winter jacket and black jeans! Hell, you wore that in the freaking land of snow! Where are the shoes I bought you?" "I sold them and got three magic beans!" Both Kami and I smacked our heads. "WHAT?" "I sold the shoes to some creepy dude I met in this bar. He paid for it with some beans, but they weren't edible. So I threw them over my shoulder and went off to beat the shit out of the jackass who sold them to me. But he was gone, so I went back home. When I came back, I saw a giant beanstalk!" he waved his arms around and some village children started coming around us. "Then, I the brave Nitsu, decided to climb the giant beanstalk. It took me two hours, and a lot of mountain dew, but I finally made it to the top, and was greeted by..." "What mister? What did you see at the top?" The children started calling out. "A GIANT BLUE GUMMY BEAR!" Nitsu screamed out and the children shrieked. " I ran down the beanstalk as quickly as I could. The final countdown was playing while I ran, I summoned my inner sonic the hedgehog and made it down in ten minutes." I smiled at the children, who now had stars in their eyes. Their mothers had found them and smiled at how Nitsu was able to keep all the children preoccupied. Huh, that idiot could actually do something right. "So there I was, at the bottom of a beanstalk, with a giant blue gummy bear coming down and trying to kill me. So do y'all know what I did next?" They shook their heads and he pulled an axe out of his jacket. How the frig did he have an AXE in his jacket? That thing didn't even have pockets! "I chopped the beanstalk down with all my might. The giant blue gummy bear fell to the ground and died instantly. The villagers ate gummy bears meat for the rest of the winter, and I was given a key to the city for my efforts. But then I sold the key to a wolf I met while delivering some treats to my grandma, but that's another story." The children applauded and were soon shooed away by their mothers. "So Nitsu, what you are trying to tell me is that you are jack from jack and the beanstalk, and you sold the shoes I got you?" He shrunk back and grabbed Kami's arm. "SORRY KURA! GOT TO GO! KAMI AND I NEED SOME NEW CLOTHES! AND ICE-CREAM! RUN KAMI!!!" I chuckled as they ran off and returned to my shopping. Maybe Naruto would like some blue gummy bears.....
