10 October.

When I woke up this morning, I remembered yesterday when we celebrated our promotion. Yeah, we had a good time. I'm a full-fledged Chunin now! I wonder what the B rank missions will be like, and the A rank missions? I can't wait!!! Walking to the bathroom, I looked in the mirror. Strange, usually at times like this I remember something important and now I had a feeling that I had forgotten something. Without thinking about it for long, I started brushing my teeth, when suddenly I saw my calendar hanging next to the mirror. It had always been there, as far back as I could remember. But what was remarkable was something else. Today's date was marked with a red circle. And when I saw what today's date was, I opened my eyes wide. Today is the 10th of October!

- Shit!!!- I shouted loudly and quickly rinsed my mouth out and headed to my room to get dressed properly.

With all the events that had happened, I had completely forgotten about Naruto's birthday. Well, and the damn holiday that is held on that day. "Fox Victory Day." Generally, I don't feel like celebrating on the same day as these people, but it's still Naruto's birthday. I need to buy a present and a cake for him. I didn't buy a present for him before, only a cake, and that was only when he turned two. But now it's okay to get him something. But what is it? Toys? Baby shurikens? A book? I should probably go to the village and look around, see if I can find something suitable.

After leaving the house, I decided not to create any clones for training today. On such important days, I don't feel like doing something like that at all. At the tree, I felt an ANBU following me all the time. But you can't call it following at all. The guy looks like he's still sleepy and about to fall off the branch he's lying on. *crunch* *bang*. Oops. He jumped up and galloped away, noticing that I was staring at him, so he wasn't hurt! As I looked at the guy running away, I decided to look at his status and used Observation on him....Name: Keiga Sarutobi

Wow, I overestimated myself a lot when I said I had already reached the Jonin Level. No, if you evaluate my power with skills and eyes, then I've already reached Jonin level, but if you evaluate only what I can show, then I'm at the level of a Chunin, just slightly above this guy's level. I think I'm a strong Chunin, but any Chunin will beat me quickly, and Tokubetsu will have to fight me for a long time, but I'll still lose. That's why I need to work out better! I can't relax just because I haven't been in a deadly situation for a long time. But now it's not about that, I will still have time to pump up, and today I need to think about the gift, and I need to think faster. But I was distracted from thinking about a gift for Naruto by Kurama....

- Hey, Menma. You're being followed again, and this time it's not the little guy who's been working his sleeves off. This time it's two men, much stronger than that one and probably stronger than you. Be careful.

- Thanks, Kurama. Where are they?

- Ten o'clock, but they're quite a distance away. They're cautious, your perception doesn't reach them. Both are watching your actions closely and are hostile to you.

- I see.

Could it be because of today's holiday? Are some guys targeting me really seriously and are going to kill me today? No, it can't be. All the Jonins are well aware of how important I am to the village and even if they wanted to kill me, they would automatically be declared Nukenins. Then what do they want? Could it be that Hiruzen has decided to send real watchers to me? Closing my eyes I looked in their direction with Byakugan and used Observation, but it had no effect. All their stats were indicated by question marks, which meant they outclassed me by at least 20 levels, I had to be careful. I could certainly use Metamorphism, but I don't think my clones can take them anywhere. They won't notice Metamorphism, but they might notice that it's not the Original in front of them if one of them is a strong sensor. I wonder when the Shadow Cloning Technique will evolve? I use them all the time, but the level is pumping at the speed of a wounded snail.

Decided not to look for a gift yet, but just walk around the village and see what they want from me. They look like ANBU, but they were also hiding from Chunin, who was following me. I need more information. Walking around Konoha, I could feel the stares of almost every living soul. And all of them were hateful. Well, today is not only a holiday, but also the anniversary of many who died that day. I'm hated today especially, just like Naruto. By the way, on this day, Mina tries her best to keep him in the room and watches him with all eyes, just like Clone. They started letting him out to the other kids when he was two and told him to play with them, but as expected, it was even worse than if he had stayed in his room, which was a few square metres in size. All the kids in the orphanage disliked him, again following the example of his elders and sometimes their advice and orders. So Naruto played alone, and wasn't even given any toys. And all the workers, every time they passed by him, tried to hurt him, hit him or even trip him up. And all this to a three-year-old child. Mina, who saw all this, could only sigh heavily. If she started a scandal, she would quickly be thrown out of her job and then she wouldn't be able to do what she was exposed to the potion for. Yes, I told her a long time ago that she only loved me because of the potion, but she always argued and assured me of pure and sincere love, so I didn't argue with her for long, it was both useless and pressurised me with guilt.

All the workers who acted in this way were punished by my Clone. He broke or maimed the hands of anyone who hit him, and the feet of anyone who kicked him. But he didn't do it out in the open and after a while, so they wouldn't suspect him. He used various techniques, mainly Tsuchikage Mu's Invisible Technique, and would set up moments where a person would either fall conveniently or something would fall on them. There was one employee who literally punched and kicked Naruto, and with considerable force at that. He was of course punished for that, but not severely, but the punishment from the Clone was as severe as possible.

He secretly snatched him away and took him into the forest to one of the caves. It was the den of one big bear, comparable to the Grizzly Bear himself from my old world. Still sleeping, he stuffed the still sleeping man into a wooden cage that he nailed to the ground. The bear was still asleep, and the clone did it quietly. When the man woke up, the clone told him what he had done and promised that if he did not get on his knees and apologise for his transgression, the fate of being eaten alive would await him with the open arms of the bear's paws. The man was sympathetic, but at first he started threatening and spitting when he found out who I was. But after a while, when he realised what an unenviable situation he was in, he started crying, begging for forgiveness and begging for pity. The clone thought for a moment about releasing him, but saw the bear waking up and said goodbye to the man, listened to his cries, and dispersed. I was asleep then and when the clone memories came to me I thought it was a dream. But the news from Mina, who was eerily happy about the situation, made me believe the truth of what had happened. The kids, by the way, also wanted to go at my brother with their fists, but they were already being openly chastised by Mina.

All in all, we are hated a lot more this day, and I even have my reputation with the common people of Konoha down by 2000. After wandering around Konoha for a bit, all I saw was everyone getting ready for the celebration. The festival itself will begin in the evening. I went to a few Shinobi shops and looked at weapons of various kinds and Scrolls. Went to the library and picked up some interesting books. Had lunch at Ichiraku and even met Itachi.

- Hi Menma." the brunet walked up to me, holding his little copy by the hand.

- Oh, Itachi! Hi. Hello to you too, Sasuke.- I replied, smiling and raising my hand in greeting.

- Hello, Brother Menma," said the little Sasuke, who didn't look hostile at all.

- It's not often you're seen walking around Konoha. We don't have any missions for today, so what are you doing here?" Itachi asked me, puzzled.

- Hey, you say that like I'm some kind of hiker. I walk around the village a lot, too," I said, pouting my lip defiantly.

- Walking to the residence for missions doesn't count," Itachi smiled teasingly.

- Heh, think what you want. Where are you going?" I was curious about the purpose of his exit, too.

- As you can see, I'm going to the toy shop with Sasuke. He wanted me to give him something in honour of the holiday...- after the last one he paused for some reason, and then quickly said...I'm sorry Menma, I didn't mean to. Even though for everyone it's a celebration of defeating the Fox, but for you this day isn't too....

- Come on, Itachi. I'm not offended. And the other villagers lost a lot of people on this day. I guess they just don't want to mourn it, so they're celebrating a more fun event. By the way, if you're going to the toy shop, can I come with you? I want to get Sasuke a present too. What do you think, Sasuke? I made the little guy's eyes sparkle.

- Yes! Brother, can Brother Menma come with us? Please.

- How can I say no to those begging eyes?" Itachi rubbed his brother's hair.

- Well, let's go then!

- Yes!

- Let's go.

***

We went to the most expensive shop, but even it didn't look luxurious and didn't have a large selection of toys. There were mostly toy Kunai, Shurikens, plush animals in the form of various summoning animals, and other little things. I bought Sasuke a small set of toy Kunai and Shuriken, and Itachi bought him a wooden Katana and a plush raven. But for Naruto, I didn't buy anything. Those were the kind of toys I already gave Naruto through Mina, so it wasn't like that. Sasuke thanked me and after the purchase we parted ways. I still didn't know what to get Naruto. Walking around a bit more I saw the window of one of the clothing shops. There I noticed one orange set of clothes with the Uzumaki symbol on the back. After a minute of observing it, I was convinced after all. It's the same Naruto costume from season one. Maybe this is a sign that I should buy it? No, it's too big for him now, and it's not normal for a Shinobi to wear such brightly coloured clothes. So, nodding to my thoughts, I went into the shop. Not to buy this orange marvel, but to look for other clothes for Naruto and himself. Not until these ANBU's stopped following me, I wouldn't be able to buy a proper gift for Naruto without suspicion from the watchers. After picking up a few things for myself and some orange pyjamas for Naruto to wear at home, I left the shop and walked on.

After wandering around for only a little while, I heard loud voices coming from one of the streets. When I looked around, I realised that there was hardly anyone around and the street was only a few metres away from me. I could easily tell from the sounds that there were several people harassing a girl. Without thinking for long, I dashed towards that street and saw the expected picture. Three guys somewhere around 17-18 years old were molesting a girl of about 11 years old in appearance. They were all Genin, as they were already wearing treads, but were without a waistcoat. I safely left my waistcoat at home, as well as the protector, as I really just wanted to go for a walk. One guy came right up to the girl and tried to touch her, while the other two were blocking her escape route from both sides. The girl huddled against the wall and looked as scared as possible.

- You shouldn't have gone out alone. You see, it's your own fault, so don't move, I'll be gentle.

- P-please don't! I'm begging you! - the girl was on the verge, and I wondered whether to save her or not. This kind of situation is like a cliché from some anime. It's a pattern. A girl is in trouble, gets attacked by a few guys and the gg happens to be around. In the end, the girl becomes part of his harem and the bullies mystically disappear, with no thought of revenge or anything like that. On the one hand, it's not hard to save her, but on the other hand, do I need to? And this girl will not hang on me after one rescue from weak bullies? I don't need to. So it turns out that I won't get anything, but it won't be difficult for me and will require minimal effort. These guys' stats were very low. From all of this, we can save her. And I'd feel bad if I just walked by. So let's turn on the pathos and go through the plot of saving the girl.

- Get away from the girl. They all suddenly stopped and looked in my direction. Their apparent leader shouted at me with a smirk on his face.

- They all raised their Kunai and stared at me with blatant superiority. Of course, I could have knocked these guys out right away, but I really wanted to act pathetic at the perfect moment. So as I got closer, I looked straight into this guy's eyes and pointed 20% of my YAKI at him.

- Or you're going to die right now," I said as coldly and stonily as possible. The guy shuddered and fell on his heels, dropping all his throwing iron, and then I directed the same wave of threat at the other two. Staring at me for a few seconds, they couldn't move, then I looked at them arrogantly and cancelled the YAKI.- Get out.

- Aah!

- Run! - cliché, they ran off at a run, and I walked over to the girl.

- Are you all right?" I smiled involuntarily and cursed myself for it. Every time I smile, the Bisyonen Smile skill activates on its own and, as expected, it worked on the girl who had just been rescued from rapists!!!

As I got closer, I was able to get a better look at her. Long black hair down to her waist, pale smooth skin, a nice calm face and blood-red eyes that both stood out and harmonised with each other. She was dressed in black, with red lightning bolt patterns, a zipped qipao, with thigh-length slits down the sides. She also wore black tight-fitting shorts with a kunai pouch on the right side and black sandals. A tread was unconventionally tied around her arm in the shoulder area. Coming to her senses, she looked up, and then....

- Yes, thank you very much!" she said, holding both my hands. "It's just not enough to thank you." she said, embarrassed, not letting go of my hands. Then she let go of my hands and, more embarrassed, she added: "If that's the case, I'll fulfil one wish of yours, ask for anything you want.-Then my logic went down the drain. No, there were suspicions that she would somehow want to thank me for the rescue, but to say so immediately, ask for anything you want!!!! Impossible or... Maybe this is my destiny. Maybe she's the one. Maybe someone can like me after all. Does she really want me to ask her to go out with me?! Yeah, she likes me, right? Exactly!!!

All these thoughts ran through my head in a flash, thanks to the Clan Nara genes. Then I decided to see how much reputation I had with her and.....

Reputation Window:

Misami Fukui -1000

Disappointment was all I felt at the time. Empty hopes again. What's wrong with me? I fell for it and even believed that a girl could love me. Didn't she like the fact that I saved her? Did she want those people to keep doing what they wanted to do?! What is she, a masochist?! Yeah, and it looks like she was hoping that I would continue with these three and that's why she was acting so mesmerised. If it wasn't for the Reputation Window I would have easily fallen for it and probably continued to hang out with her and then been disappointed once again. I guess I shouldn't fall for love anymore. Heh heh...

- No, a simple thank you will suffice. Bye.- I didn't want to continue chatting and went in the direction I came from, but she picked me up by the hand and pressed against me with her, for her age, not bad virtues.

- Please wait. I'm really very grateful indeed. I can't imagine what those bullies could have done to me if it wasn't for my saviour. Please let me thank you!" she looked at me with puppy dog eyes, but she was still far from Mina's level, so I didn't fall for it, and the notification window that popped up spoke for itself....

Reputation with Misami Fukui -100.

This event ruined my mood, so I looked at her angrily and said.

- Don't touch me.- she flinched at my words and one cent YAKI, and didn't know what to say back, and I took my hand away and calmly walked away.

It really ruined my mood, but it was almost evening and I still hadn't gotten a gift for Naruto. So, shaking my head, I tried to forget this situation and focus on the gift. I started walking around Konoha again. For some reason, my two new watchers had stopped doing their main observation mission and had gone somewhere else. Maybe celebrating? The celebration was in full swing and everyone was having a good time. Some of them wanted to go at me, but I was in a bad mood and kept pushing anyone who would look at me. So I kept walking until I reached Hokage Mountain. Before I knew it, I had gone vertical and was now on Father's head.

- Huh, what the hell am I going to get?" I thought for a moment and decided to use the last resort to find a gift. With the seals folded, I shouted "Callback!" and found myself in the world of Birds of Prey.

- M-menma-kun?" After a puff of smoke, I saw Yuame-san looking at me in harpy form in surprise.

- Yuame-san, help!!!

- Help?

***

- I see, and to find out what you can gift, you came here?

- Yes, I did.

- Hmm, I have one option.

- What?! I grabbed her beak and looked her straight in the eye.

- Give him a familiar.

- F-familiar?

- Yeah, you can pick one of the helper birds and, for a price, offer it to be your little brother's familiar.

- Hmm, what are these helper birds and what can they do?

- Like I said, they're familiars. Insanely loyal creatures that will serve you even after you die. They can't do anything, but they can be easily trained by just repeating something a couple of times, and then you can just command them. They don't eat meat or anything like that, they feed on their master's energy, but only take 1% of it. Over time they will become more and more like the host because of this diet. Young birds are given such familiars as children and they are quite useful. The choice of familiars is not really important, as I said, the familiar feeds on the host's energy and changes to resemble it. But due to absorbing only one per cent, they are usually 100 times weaker than the host, but the host can give it more strength.

- It's the perfect gift!!!

- OK, get on my back, I'll take you to where these creatures live.

- Aha! - I climbed on Yuame-san's back, and we flew straight to those namilyar birds. When I reached the place, all I saw was a large meadow with flowers and a giant tree in the centre. There was a small hollow with light coming out of it.

- This is where they are born and can be taken away at any time. Until someone takes them, they feed off the tree that gave birth to them. Look, there they are. - pointing to the branches of the tree, Yuame said. There I saw a huge number of small birds that looked nothing like any species I had ever seen before. They had no distinguishing features and were all very similar. When they saw us they all flew towards us at once and started circling round. Then I heard them all say something.

- Pick me. Pick me. Pick me.

- What's wrong with them?

- They want to be picked. Don't bother, just pick one up and arrange payment.

- All right. - I looked at them for a bit and grabbed one with my hand, but didn't squeeze it too tight. When I unclenched my hand back I saw a small bird on it.

- Yay, thank you for choosing me, Master!

- I won't be your master.

- What? But I wanted to be the familiar of the creature from the prophecy. Then who will be my master?

- Your master will be the guy from the other prophecy. He's my little brother. So, what do you want to be my brother's surname?

- I want a name and a piece of my new master's energy!

- That's it? I thought you'd ask for more.

- His new master will become very powerful in the future and he will become powerful with him. The fact that you chose him is already a great gift." Yuame-san told me the reason for the bird's behaviour.

- All right, if that's the way you want it. But what should I call you? Hmm.- while I was thinking, he stared at me with puppy dog eyes. Then I started thinking of everything Naruto related. But what could I think of? That's when I remembered his son's name in the anime. Boruto! But naming a surname like that would be weird. Can't we do something about it? I got it!!! Your new name is Boro. You'll be my little brother's surname from now on. You take good care of him," I told him with a smile.

- Yes!" Then I returned with the call, holding the bird in my hands. Back in my world, I used Invisible and ran towards the orphanage. When I got there, I saw Naruto sitting in his room. He was playing with his Kunai toys and was still awake. The clone under Henge was watching him and Mina was sitting beside him playing with him. Walking into the room, I walked over and sat down across from Naruto. He didn't see me and neither did Boro.

- Boro, here's your new master. You can take a piece of his energy and finally become his familiar," I whispered to him.

- Okay, Master's brother.- Boro quietly lowered himself down and stopped hiding with the help of my Invisibility.

- Ooh, sister Mina. There's a bird! It came out of nowhere!" Mina jumped up quickly, but I touched her shoulder and said quietly.

- It's me, it's okay." She calmed down and, like me, began to watch. Naruto crawled closer to the chick looking at him and touched it. Boro didn't move and stared at Naruto studyingly. Then when Naruto brought his finger up to him, he touched it with his beak and blood came out of Naruto's finger. I then felt some of Naruto's chakra pass through his finger and beak to the chick and it glowed orange. I then saw Boro's black eyes slowly take on a blue colour. After that Naruto started to fall asleep and I quietly took him in my arms and laid him on the bed. "Good night, Naruto. And happy birthday. I placed his cake next to Naruto's bed and removed the three candles that were on it.-I didn't expect the day to end like this....

POV Misami Fukui

My name is Misami Fukui, I'm 11 years old. Well, at least that's what they told me. I don't remember my parents, not their names, not even their appearance... I only remember some strange feeling of warmth and security coming from them. I was told that it was unknown who my father was, and that my mother died of complications during childbirth, but lately I've been wondering more and more if that's true.

I'm currently being trained as a honey kunoichi, in order to "work off" my parents' debt. I don't know how they could have owed so much and to whom, so that I have to devote my entire life to "paying it off". The mentors didn't answer my, and the other girls', questions about the past, only about "work". They say that no one tells them the details, and only their superiors know them, but I can't go to Danzo-sama with such questions, can I?

I don't have any special skills or talents in Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, or any fighting skills, so I have to study harder than anyone else to avoid being considered useless, and I don't even want to imagine what they'd do to me if I did... Although, there is one thing I do have that makes me stand out from the crowd, and that's my appearance. I guess that's why I'm being trained as a honey kunoichi. Perhaps as I get older I'll become even more beautiful... Though why would I need such beauty if all I'm going to do in life is scouting, killing, and... pleasuring. And who could ever love someone like me, heh? Good thing I'm at an age where I'm not sent on real missions yet.....

The door suddenly opened and our Mentor, Akemi-sama, walked in. She suddenly looked me over, nodded and said:

- Follow me, Misami, you've got your first assignment.

Э?

There was no limit to my surprise, but I still managed to keep the mask of a slight smile on my face, so familiar over the years, and followed her to my first "workout"....

***

- Did you understand your task well, Misami?

- Yes, of course.

To gain the Demon's trust, right? Why did they pick me in the first place? Huh, just because of my looks, so that he'll definitely fall for it... So I was just planted under the Village Weapon. Although what else did I expect, with my profession, good and pure love? Three "ha!"

What I really didn't expect was that the order came from Danzo-sama himself. This mission is that important to the Village? In that case, if I fail, I won't even be killed, but... it's better not to think about it, but to clearly complete the task. After studying the information on Uzumaki and a course of additional lessons from Mentor, I proceeded to start the mission.

First, the scene of my 'rescue' had to be acted out. The two senior Root ANBU's were to follow the Demon and signal us to start the mission at the right moment. Everything seemed to go well, Uzumaki rescued me and drove away the three junior Genin-level Root ANBU, who seemed to me not to be playing a role at all, but were really running away as if they were saving their lives. Why were they doing that? It seems he just threatened them and looked at them with his... impossibly beautiful eyes. Ah, maybe this assignment will be more pleasant than I thought. After all, he's not some fat, rich drunk with nothing but filth in his head. The Sempai have told me how they've had to work with just such... gross.

But just when I thought the plan had worked and that he was totally into me, he suddenly turned cold and even a little angry. His last words sent shivers through my whole body. I was shocked and couldn't move and he just walked away. Had I really failed? What was wrong?! I think I did as I was taught, I don't remember any mistakes in my actions. I-is this really the end?! What's going to happen to me?! Am I going to die? That's what I thought all the way back to the honey kunoichi base. And when I stood before Mentor's eyes, I could see that she was disappointed. Those Root's ANBU's who were following us had already reported back to her completely.

- ...how could you fail? You realise this was a very important mission. If you'd completed it, you could have paid off your parents' debt. And now.

- N-mentor, n-please, I'll do better! I will definitely complete the mission!!! Just give me one more chance... - I tearfully begged her. I don't want to die, and even more so, I don't want to experience something that is "worse than death". And after an hour of pleading, the mentor looked at me with a tired look and with a look as if she was doing me the greatest favour, said....

- Okay, so be it. There's a very small possibility that he just can't move on from his past love and has become disillusioned with all women. Your last hope is to win his heart so he'll get as attached to you as possible. I'll turn a blind eye to today's failure, but if you fail any more.....

- Yes! I'll do anything! Thank you so much, Mentor!!! I'll never forget this!

- I hope so. - After saying that for the last time, Akemi-sama left, leaving me sitting in an empty office.

- I will definitely make you fall in love with me, Menma Uzumaki, by all means....
