Izumi's POV

I landed on my feet just below Naruto's apartment a smile coming to my face as I thought of the journey ahead. It was sure to be both fun and terrifying, which were things I had come to expect when being around Naruto and Pervert-Chan. Something bright green caught my eye over my left shoulder causing me to pin the person to the wall behind me.

"You noticed me..." Rin gurgled through my tight grip on his neck, "Are you really always on edge...?"

"Geez... Rin..." I sighed releasing him as the boy gasped for breath, "I thought you would've gone home by now."

"Well, I wanted to see you one last time before I had to go home." he smirked taking my hand gently, "Are you free right now?"

"'fraid not." I shrugged pulling my hand away, "I'm about to leave the village, so we're probably headed the same way." his face dropped, "Will it make you feel better if I visited you some time?"

"Huh?" his mouth dropped a little as we started walking toward the village gates, "You would go that far for me? Wouldn't you be afraid traveling that far alone???"

"I need to get out more anyway." I laughed as I started running, "As for being afraid I could always summon Taki if I get lonely."

. . .

When we finally made it to the village gates both Pervert-Chan and Naruto were already waiting for me, "What took you so long?" he questioned putting his hands behind his head, "Oh, you're with him again...?"

"Sorry, my stalker here wanted to walk me here..." I jabbed a finger in Rin's direction, "I'm here, you happy now?" I asked causing the green-haired boy to scowl and nod lightly, "I meant what I said." he looked into my eyes almost sadly, "I promise."

"You promise what?" Naruto broke clearly annoyed that he wasn't the center of attention for once.

"No matter..." I laughed swatting at the blond's head gently, "Let's get going... Bye Rin!"

Naruto's POV

"Well, come on Pervy Sage!" I cheered as I trotted backwards, "I'm on pins and needles! What's this new jutsu you're going to teach me?!?"

A vein poked out on Izumi's forehead as she walked next to the white-haired man, "You're making my ears bleed!!!" she held her hands to the sides of her head while closing one eye, "How can one person be so loud?!?"

I ignored her complaints as I continued to hound the old man, "The last time it was the walk on water jutsu!" I enthused not holding still a single instant, "OOh, is it walking through fire?!? Ooh wait... maybe walking on air..." I imagined myself in various unlikely situations before letting out a laugh, "Come on Pervy Sage, Let's here it already!!!"

"Alright, enough with the Pervy Sage already! You have no idea how amazing a guy I am, do you?" he glanced down at me.

"Huh? What amazingly pervy?"

"You hit the nail on the head, Naruto!" Izumi chuckled with a wink.

"AArgh!" Pervy Sage groaned at the two of us, "You two...!" he burst forward, "I've had enough! The toad sage is only my cover!" he started to dance around, "Allow me to reveal my true identity! From the north to the south to the east to the west!" a giant scroll appeared in front of him, "Not even the spirits can defeat this sannin!" a toad appeared beneath his feet, "The white maned toad charmer! A red hot ninja that strikes fear into the hearts of men, Jiraiya! Yes, I'm speaking of none other than myself! Hahaha!"

I stared at him blankly as Izumi slowly raised her hand, "Are you forgetting that I've known you for almost my entire life?" she inquired to which the man before us started to sweat a little, "But eh, whatever you say..."

"Uh... huh..." I muttered in agreement.

. . .

After walking for awhile the three of us reached a bustling town filled with many strange attractions, "Oh, man..." I mumbled to myself as Izumi and I took in the scenes, "This town is pretty weird..." Izumi nodded lightly in agreement before we found our way to a small inn.

"Naruto, Izumi!" the pervy sage called our gaze returning to the white-haired man, "We're going to crash here for the night!"

"What?" I screeched walking toward him, "But why?" Izumi's eyes were burning into the back of my head already, "I can still walk!!!"

"How many times must I tell you not to be so loud!" she smacked my head lightly.

"A disciple should always obey his master." Jiraiya broke in with a serious look.

Izumi's POV

"Look I just want to learn some jutsu, okay?" Naruto countered as I started to zone out. It was clear we wouldn't be going any further that day and I didn't see any reason to argue about it.

My mind drifted off as I thought about the person we were looking for when a beautiful woman with long black locks and wonderful brown eyes filled my view. I saw the boys faces light up as their eyes fell upon her. How crude can you get?

Is she really winking at them? I questioned internally as their faces grew even more red and excited, "Let's go to the room!" I loudly announced before snatching the key from Pervert-Chan's hand and dragging Naruto upstairs

. . .

"Ah, man!" Naruto complained sitting on his bed with hands sealed into a hand sign, "Every time I'm with that pervy sage I always end up getting shafted!"

"Come on, training isn't that bad..." I sighed, "If you really want I'll train with you, would that make you complain a little less?" I chuckled lightly before noticing that he hadn't paid me any mid, "Whatever..." I practiced my own jutsu for awhile before returning my attention to the blond to find that both he and his shadow clones were fast asleep, "I thought you said that you could still walk!" I laughed again patting his head lightly as his clones slowly disappeared and I pulled the blanket over the sleeping ninja when a knock came upon our door, "Hmm?" I hummed to myself as I stared blankly at the inn's door, "Who could that be? It couldn't be Pervert-Chan yet..."
