Hey guys I deeply for being late with this update. I had it ready two weeks ago but I lost the file somewhere in my computer and couldn't find it. So I tried asking my friend who usually fixes my computer to take a look and it like crashed as soon as I handed it to him. And because of that I had to take it to a professional I know. Now its back and I still couldn't find it so I had redo it from memory so it's shorter than originally intended and there's a lot less interaction than I would've liked. But it's all I've got right now. (P.S. I don't own the picture above)

"Take it again,"Lord Hokage commanded impassively, placing down the photo on his desk.

"What?!"Naruto yelled disbelievingly, to which I mushroom sighed.

I stood next to Lord Hokage watching the blond grumble at the old man, insults right on his tongue. It was the day after Naruto had beat Mizuki to a pulp and graduated, but he was still the same boy as ever. One the bright side, since he had graduated I decided to take on a new, more ninja-ish look(pic above).

I had my usual black ninja pants with black sandals that go a bit above the ankle. But instead of my hoodie with a T-shirt under, my new top consisted of a quarter sleeved fishnet under a gray, vest-like button-up, the buttons going up the right side. Around my waist was a black belt with the Konoha symbol on the metal plate buckle. Because Naruto got my hoodie dirty, I've taken to wearing just my black mask(like Kakashi again) and pulling my hair back (into a pony tail / with a head band). Despite the fact that I didn't have my hoodie on, I was still perceived as a boy by many.

Focusing my gaze on the floorboards rather than the argument that still ensued between Naruto about his photo with Lord Hokage, I heard someone running down the hallway. Ignoring Naruto's use of his Sexy Jutsu against the Hokage, I took a whiff. Clicking my tongue in acknowledgement, I shrugged it away knowing it was Konohamaru, Lord Hokage's grandson. I had never met the kid but according to the old man, he was very troublesome.

After a moment or two, the kid had made it to the door, catching Both Naruto's and Lord Hokage's attention. Bursting into the room, a shuriken in hand, Konohamaru yelled,"Fight me, old geezer."

Not even a few steps through the door and he trips on a flat floor. Raising a single brow at the pathetic display, I gave a side glance at the old man who merely sighed in a disappointed manner. Walking up to boy still hadn't gotten up, I knelt down checking to see if he hadn't passed out. Rolling him onto his back, I poked his cheek a few times making his eyes flutter open. Squinting his eyes at me, his expression morphed into awe.

"Are you an angel?"he murmured.

Smirking slightly, I shook my head somewhat amused by him.

"Far from it kid, but...are you going to be fine?"

My question seemed to bring him back to the present. He hopped up to his feet and looked around, glaring.

"Who set that trap?!"

Behind me, another person burst in. I did not need to turn around to know who it was. His smell already told me everything. This day was just getting better wasn't it?

"Are you alright?!"Ebisu, Konohamaru's instructor yelled, pushing up his glasses,"And there isn't a trap anywhere!"

The kid, clearly not convinced, turned to the nearest person, that being Naruto. "Hey,"Konohamaru exclaimed,"I know you're the one that set the trap!!

"You tripped over your own feet you idiot,"the blond protested in annoyance as he picked the kid up by the front of his shirt.

"Hey Naruto!"Ebisu called,"Let him go he's the Hokage's grandson!!"
