-Chapter 3-

AND UP WITH THE CURTAIN!

-Kohona Hospital-

Koyuki chuckled to himself as thought about how well that meeting had gone, he had scared the s**t out of some arse-holes, garnered himself a new apprentice, and reconnected with that pup Dan-, wait, GOTTEN HIMSELF A WHAT?! oh balding crap-biscuits, Koyuki had just managed to get himself an apprentice of all the Kami damndest things! Is he actually expected to teach? Probably. Well, crap, there goes his retirement. Sighing, Koyuki approached the nurse manning the front desk. "Excuse me miss, could you tell me which room Naruto Uzumaki is in?" The nurse looked up with a sneer. "And why would such a nice old man like you want to speak with that demon?"

WAM. WAM-WAM-WAM.

The other doctors and nurses around stared at Koyuki and the nurse with the now misshaped face. In response to the nurses question, Koyuki had very calmly reached forward , grabbed the nurses head and proceeded to slam her face repeatedly into the desk. "The first one was for calling me old, the last three were calling a 5 year old a demon. But oh, wait your unconscious. Better leave a note next time. " Turning to the nurse sitting next to now unconscious nurse, and in that exact same tone of voice as he had asked the first time,

"Excuse me, what room is Naruto Uzumaki in?" The nurse managed to stammer out and pointed to her left, "r-room 201 s-s-sir." With an acknowledging nod, Koyuki swept away.

-Naruto's hospital room-

Naruto slowly awoke to the feeling of something poking him in the side of the head over and over, and over. As he opened his eyes he saw an old man who's face was crosshatched with scars, and almost looked like hokage-jiji's evil older brother. Complete with white robes and a cane that he was using to poke Naruto in the side of the head with.

"You awake Gaki?" Naruto nodded. "Good, do you know why the village hates your guts?" Naruto shook his head. "Good, I will tell you that and who your parents are when you graduate from the Genin academy, until then what do you think about becoming my student?" Naruto could only gape. "Why Rojin-san?" Koyuki karate chopped over the head. "Itai Rojin-San! what the hell?!" Shaking his head Koyuki sighed at the little blonds antics. "I come to offer you an apprenticeship and all you can do is call me old?" Naruto drooped a little. "Gomen. But why?"

Koyuki sat back into a nearby chair and flashed Naruto a grin. "I want to train you to replace me, and in the process I want to train you so that you become the strongest and most feared ninja in the elemental nations. Got a problem with that Gaki?"

Naruto could only grin back at the old man at the thought of being thought of being the strongest ninja in the elemental nations. Koyuki looked on as the blond got a carnivorous grin on his face. "Gaki, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship." The nurses and doctors outside the room shivered at the dark laughter that began to emerge from room 201, it made them feel like the happiness was slowly being drained from their lives.

-Hokage tower-

The doors into Hokage's office burst open. "Oi! JiJi! I'm taking an apprenticeship with Koyuki-jiji!" Sarutobi's face twitched as he attempted to maintain a smile for his grandson in all but blood. "My boy, while I am happy that someone wants you as an apprentice did you ask any questions about what qualifies them as a teacher or ninja?"

Naruto frowned and shook his head. "No I didn't Jiji, thats a good point. The person who wants to make me his apprentice said his name is Koyuki, do you know him? Is he good enough?"

Sarutobi winced trying to figure out some sort of response that wouldn't be a lie, and at the same time discourage his adopted grandson from taking an apprenticeship under the famously sadistic ninja with a unique and terrifying dojustsu. Sarutobi was about to respond when in a shimmer and the same odd sideways movement that he had disappeared in, Koyuki appeared directly behind Naruto. "Yeah Sarutobi, am I good enough?"

Sarutobi winced again. "Hello Koyuki, yes, Naruto, while I do have some concerns about his teaching methods, I can not think of any other more gifted ninja in kohona who would have the time to teach you." Koyuki sneered at Sarutobi's diplomatic response. "Wow Sarutobi, that fairly rings with positivity in my teaching ability." Sarutobi winced even more, Naruto looked curiously as his Jiji's face continued to contort. "Hey jiji, you probably shouldn't make faces like that, Ayame-chan told me that when you make funny faces that if your not careful that they can freeze your face."

The few simple words by Naruto managed to diffuse the tension. Sarutobi smiled in gratitude at his grandson while Koyuki moderated his sneer to slight disapproval. "Alright Sarutobi, humor aside, Naruto agrees to the apprenticeship, the council is to scared to say peep about really anything about me, at least for a year or two, and it would keep Naruto safe."

Sarutobi sighed, thought, and sighed again, he also realized he had been sighing a lot lately and had a distinct feeling he would do so a lot more in the future. "Very well Koyuki." Turning to Naruto, Sarutobi abruptly became serious.

"Naruto Uzumaki, the ninja known as Koyuki No-Shoyu Sha has decided to offer you an apprenticeship, the mentorship traditionally last for 7 years. Do you accept this great honor?" Naruto could feel the seriousness of the situation.

"Yes Hokage-Sama. I do." Sarutobi nodded in response. "Very well Naruto, you will move into the Shoyu-Sha complex, and you will learn all that Kozuki will teach you." Naruto grinned with the realization that he had someone who would actually teach him now.

-Shoyu-Sha Complex-

The Shoyu-Sha complex on the outskirts of Kohona was less of a complex and more of a single two story main house covering about a third of a 2 acre property, with a small guest house tucked into the corner of the property. As Naruto walked up to the gates of the property, Koyuki motioned for him to halt. Koyuki then proceeded to empty a vial of blood onto his palms and then blurred into a series of hand signs.

As Koyuki continued with the hand signs he explained. "The blood I spread on to my palms was some of your blood that I was surprised to see that the hospital kept in stock, apparently you get injured- a lot- but, it works for our purposes because a current Koyuki No Shoyu-Sha using the new entrant's blood is the only one that can give people access to the security complex." Abruptly, Koyuki finished the long string of hand seals that would allow Naruto access to his new home. As the scarlet colored gates opened the all Naruto could do was stare in awe at the fact that he finally had a real home, and as those gates opened, so did our favorite blond's life. The next thing that Koyuki knew he had a small blond hugging him as tight as his little arms could reach.

AND DOWN WITH THE CURTAIN!

Authors note

I'm having difficulty deciding whether to cover all the training, or just do a couple of quick blurbs, opinions? Other options? R&R if you would.
