Behind Innocent Eyes

Ambush

"Not great. It's taking a while to adjust and there were some issues because of it." Naruto said as Kurama cuddled next to him. "I'll explain later, but don't worry. I doubt Kurenai will get involved again."

XXXXXXXXXX

Kurenai smiled as she walked up to her three students, "Ok, today we're doing something different today. We're going to get Naruto and from now until the chunin exams he will train with us."

"Of course, sensei, but wouldn't that affect the team arrangement for team 7, sensei?" Hinata asked quietly showing much less stutter in her voice without Naruto there.

"Normally it would, but team 7's sensei has decided on training individually so since Naruto is having chakra trouble he coming with us. Now we're going to start by getting to know him so where does he live?" Kurenai asked hoping to get a head start on the truth behind the blonde.

Shino raised an eyebrow, "Sensei, why do we need to know that for him to improve in chakra?"

The genjutsu mistress pouted when she realized she slipped up in her desperation to win the bet, "I made a point to learn about you guys when we became a team." She said pointedly hoping that would cover up her slip while avoiding the truth about the bet she made with Kakashi. If certain people found out about that there would be a blood bath and she'd be caught in the middle.

"Yeah, but you never asked where we lived." Kiba said as his dog barked something for him to translate, "and Akamaru wants to know why the individual training is taking three months when the exams are coming?"

For a moment Kurenai considered trying to avoid the truth again, but sighed, "Forget it. This will go smoother if you all knew, but don't let anyone know especially Naruto. I don't want him to think I only took up his training because of this reason, understand?" Kurenai asked and sighed in relief when her genins nodded seriously supposedly understanding the gravity of the situation. Of course, if they didn't know they soon will. "Ok ... where do I begin? ... you know how I dragged Naruto away yesterday?" They nodded curious as to where this is going. "Well it turns out he needed glasses-"

"What and the idiot didn't know how to get them on his own?" Kiba chuckled, but his laughter died when he saw the very serious look on his sensei's face and he promptly shut up.

"Perhaps I should warn you all first. There is a reason Naruto can't do some things or isn't allowed some common place needs, but I can't legally tell you. I have a feeling you will all learn what that is the more you spend time with him so you must keep in mind the old saying 'a scroll is not a kunai', understand? Don't judge him." Kurenai stated seriously.

Shino nodded as his teammates took more time to digest what they were told in silence, "We won't, sensei. If you say so that's good enough for me." He said and succeeded in settling his teammates' thoughts on the matter.

"Thank you, guys ... but you might not like what I did. You see, upon speaking to the hokage about Naruto I asked him what training he was giving. Kakashi only trained him in tree walking so I decided to have a ... chat, with him. We ended up making a bet. If I can prove Naruto was telling the truth about not being allowed certain things and can become a skilled ninja then Kakashi ... let's just say he owes me a few favors."

"And if you can't?" Shino asked.

Kurenai smiled nervously, "He gets to pick 10 woman for me to get naked pictures of and ... and a videotape of a sexual encounter between three woman." She winced as her three students paled. "You see the potential danger here."

"No shit, sensei! What if Naruto, the fucking deadlast, doesn't show a lot of improvement and the pervert sensei picks my mother or sister and they hear about this bet and my involvement? What if he picks any women from our clans and this gets out? THEY'LL SKIN US ALL ALIVE!" Kiba screamed and paled further before glancing at a blushing Hinata, "and what if he picks Hinata?" He asked his voice filled with dread and Shino and Kurenai understood why. Of course, he'd worry for his crush even though Hinata never noticed his feelings.
