AN: I was supposed to post this yesterday but I was so damn exhausted that it didn't happen.
Hell, it was supposed to be posted last Monday but apparently I forgot in the haze of food shopping and a cold slinking up on me. I just got back my damn voice Sunday. Losing it yet again though since yesterday my cold made a resurgence while I was accompanying my friend up to her appointment for a pain treatment.
I was Casper the Fucking Ghost.
When I got home yesterday, I decided to lay down for a few minutes, suck on some poweraid, and make the world stop spinning.
I think I woke once about 12, went to the bathroom and crashed again. I just got back up. It is now about 11AM my time. Yeah.
Still feel like shit but at least I'm less Casper like this time.
So enjoy.
*~*~*~*
“Do we know what was done?” Tsunade gazed over her collection of special Chunins. She took in their tired appearances and the way even Naruto was slumped in his seat.
“From what was learned by the ANBU who came to go over the rooms that are the false positives, they concluded that the guy was after scrolls. Any scrolls since he took the food scrolls that we left for our lunches,” Iruka sighed, hiding a yawn behind one hand. His hair was skewed to one side, hanging limply in the hair tie. “We think he was looking for information scrolls on the Archives. But any scrolls like that aren’t even in the same building.”
“What do you mean by that?” Ibiki growled from his corner. Naruto just yawned at the dangerous sound. Even being a stamina freak didn’t stop him from feeling exhausted after their long day and night.
He waved a hand. “It means that they’re on a bit of land that the Yondaime dedicated to hiding them,” Naruto sighed. “It’s on the land that was left to me when he died. Only me, Iruka, and Tsunade can get on the land anyways.”
“Why only you three? And why on that land?” Ibiki asked. He frowned heavily as he scowled and stared down the sleepy blond.
“Dude, really?” Naruto sighed, sounding exhausted. “Okay, look, no matter what anyone says, Iruka-san is head Chunin and thus the only one who knows all sort of shit. Tsunade is the Hokage, so obviously she gets to know it, but also because she’s trustworthy. And me?” He smirked. “Well, I’m the last Namikaze in this village and therefore have the deeds to the land. This includes the bit of land that the unit is stored under. To get to the room you have to enter the house and go through a chakra sealed door.”
“I...see,” Ibiki drawled, looking to Tsunade, who shrugged at him. “And when did you learn this?”
“Despite the council’s tries to stop it, when he turned sixteen, Jiraiya laid it all out to him,” Tsunade stated. The Chunins yawned, ignoring the two talking, already knowing the history of their youngest. “As stated by Minato, he was told by his godfather on his sixteenth birthday. Mostly because by the time he turned eighteen, he had to know how to be a clan head.”
“And this includes both Namikaze and Uzumaki names,” Naruto hummed, rubbing at his head. “Can we get through the rest of this meeting?” he asked. “I want to actually get some sleep today. I’ve already got Genma to take my shift since I’m already running on nearly twenty-four hours of no sleep.”
“Fine. What are we going to do to make sure this doesn’t happen again?” Ibiki asked, tilting his head to the side. He looked to Iruka who had flopped down onto the chair, sighing as he flipped through his pages.
“We’re going to have to have one of your ANBU with heavy duty seal knowledge come in and lay fresh seals on the walls of the Archive. Mind you, we have the knowledge of the needed seals, but we don’t really have the time to take our sweet time laying them. We know that your ANBU can do transfer seals but none of us have quite mastered that art,” he said, looking to Naruto. “Though Naruto is on that edge of it.”
Ibiki grunted and pulled out a small notepad, writing down the information. “I can do that,” he said, nodding his head.
“We’re also going to need guards who don’t need to go out. They’ll be paid the usual for being a guard, but we need them unfortunately,” Izumo said around yawns that escaped from him. “Jounin who can be trusted only I think. We can save ourselves, easily, but we still need that backup since we’re always busy while working.”
“I’ll look at the files and figure out who can do this. You might have to buddy up for a while until we find enough though,” Ibiki said.
Iruka waved a hand as his other hand hid his own yawning. “That’s fine. We have some people for the positions first. Gai-san and Asuma-san have both done highly classified missions. Raidou and Genma are covered well enough with each other and no one wants to deal with those senbon that they use to trick their traps with. Izumo and Kotetsu live together, so they’ll need one Jounin. Naruto and I are moving in together for the time being. He’s having to clean out his house anyways, despite the fact that it hasn’t been officially announced that he’s taking the clan head position.”
“I see,” Ibiki rumbled, making a note to have Gai and Asuma sign contracts about what they learned as guards. Until Naruto was ready to tell the village just who he was, they would need to keep their mouths shut. “Are you against ANBU watching you guys? Or patrolling the area around your homes?” he asked.
“Not around my family home. There’s too many seals that they would have to be keyed into,” Naruto yawned, slowly stretching. “I can key in one or two people into them but not a frickin’ squad of them. I’ve keyed in Iruka-san, Genma-san, Izumo-san, Tsunade-san, Raidou-san, and Kotetsu-san into the land seals so far. But everyone else has to announce their presence at the wall or at the gate with a bit of chakra and blood if they're not already keyed into the gate seals,” he continued, standing up. “I can also key you in but that’ll have to wait until I can see straight.”
“Very well. I’ll send a bird to you when we have your guard contracted. We’ll need your usual schedules, or duties that you attend to day to day so that we can cover it all. I suggest you have a room set up for them,” Ibiki rumbled.
“Not a problem, Ibiki-san. Another thing that we will need to do to be prepared is to have new traps set up to deter the idiot who tried to get in. We’re going to be getting nasty though with them,” Kotetsu finally said, the only one who looked awake. He had gone home and slept off the drug used on him before coming back that morning, ready to pull a double shift so that Iruka could sleep. “Genma is working on some interesting paralytics and poisons that won’t kill. Make them sicker than hell even with just skin contact.” He smirked.
“You don’t fuck around with my traps damn it. And you sure as hell don’t fuck with my friend,” Iruka grumbled. Ibiki stared at him with wide eyes, tilting his head to the side before looking to the snickering Naruto.
“Iruka-san is a mother bear when it comes to his precious people, Ibiki-san,” Naruto stated as he reached down. Tugging on Iruka’s shirt, blue eyes turned to the bald man and pink lips twitched into a smile. “We’re going to head out now to the house. Keep your people off the land though unless it’s absolute emergency until I can show you where it's safe to guard.”
“I’ll make sure I do that,” Ibiki promised, watching the two males leave the room, eyes watching Naruto.
Kotetsu snickered from his spot as he watched the interrogation expert watch Naruto with such thoughtful eyes. “I can tell you right now, Naruto is a mystery wrapped in a mystery wrapped in a mystery topped with a mask made out of sunshine and rainbows. At least to those who somehow don’t get close to him. But that’s a bit like ramming into a brick wall with a kunai if you’re not careful.”
“What is that supposed to mean?” Ibiki growled, glaring at the other man and getting a snicker.
“It means that he’ll get ya to spill your guts without you even realizing it,” Izumo groaned, standing up with a small stagger. “He’s good at annoying you to actually talking without meaning to. Kid could have gone into your division but he likes where he is right now. Can put his skills to good use against the Jounins who keep trying to fuck with their reports,” he chuckled.
“I see,” Ibiki hummed, watching the two Chunins leave after bowing to the Hokage. “I think that there is a lot of unknown factors about your Chunin.”
“I know you respect them, but even you still underestimate them,” Tsunade stated, starting to shuffle around papers. Finding what she needed, she filled in the request of a meeting before sending it off. “We all do sometimes. They play their parts so well that it’s hard to remember that they are fully trained shinobi that could have been Jounins if they so wanted to be. We are lucky though that they decided to stay in their positions because it means that we have some of the best defenders around.”
“And they mostly don’t even have to leave,” Ibiki snorted, Tsunade smirking at him as she pulled out two cups and a sake bottle.
“Exactly.” Pouring some of the sake into the cups, she held one out. “Want some? After dealing with a tired Naruto who doesn’t want to deal with shit, we both could use some.”
Ibiki eyed the cup before sighing. “Yeah, sounds good.”
