Small note:
This story is meant to be light-hearted and funny. In saying that, most chapters will come off as short to some people's standards. Fights will be detailed, however, and a few serious moments will appear. That's all I wanted to say before the story starts.

In her feeble little mind that was yet to be tainted from the world's devilish secrets, Ruby Rose pouted without an ounce of shame in her currently rag-doll like body.

Her sister had just ditched her with little to no care, a white haired girl showed her the rage of a heiress and a somewhat feline female ignored her and showed more interest in her book.

In short, the girl wasn't having the best first day at a prestigious academy.

"Welcome to Beacon Academy..." Running through her memories once more, Ruby added with a small grumble. "I guess."

She knew, or she thought she knew, that nobody would ever respond to a quirky girl like her, much less strike a conversation with said huntress in training. However, some things tend to sneak up behind you unnoticed and penetra-

*cough* Whoops. T rated story. Got it.

Let's try that again, shall we? Some things tend to sneak up behind you unnoticed and give you a small surprise that would sometimes leave you shocked and lost for words.

"Hey, c'mon now! We have got a girl to talk to!"

"Please stop dragging me."

"You're pretty light, so I'm taking that to my advantage! Taking advantages of weaknesses is something a hunter should do, you know!"

"That's true... for Grim. I doubt humans should be accounted for..."

"Bah, details."

Or hey, you know, they could come in two packs of tall, blonde and polar opposites.

Having heard them from afar, Ruby turned her head as her hair scraped across the ground and saw her soon-to-be conversational partners. They were seemingly standing on the wall from her view, so the girl had to squint her eyes to get a good look at the walking males.

One was a tall guy with scraggly blonde hair, if she had to describe it herself. He was somewhat pale, with a huge grin spread across his face like butter spread across toast. He had dark blue eyes that complimented his decent facial features, his chin angular and jaw strong.

His armor suited him to an extent. Blue jeans that had a rip on his left leg-sleeve, orange sleeves that reached his wrists, a black hoodie with orange insides. With white body chest and shoulder plating, his appearance was finished off with a simple sword sheathed into a simple shield.

Her silver eyes swiftly moved onto the other blonde, strangely finding the dragged guy more interesting. His back was facing her as he was, as mentioned, being dragged so she could only catch the maroon cloak that covered his shoulders and back with black fire dancing at the ends of said cloak.

That, and he had blonde hair too. Really spiky. Ruby wondered if she could ask that guy for hair styling lessons.

The blonde boy that was doing the dragging walked forwards until he was about a foot away from her, bent forward and gave the small girl the most charming smile he had ever done in his whole life.

"Hey. The name's Jaune Arc."

Ruby heard a tired sigh. She turned to see the other blonde slowly bringing the palm of his right hand upwards until it was inches away from his face.

The he simply put his tanned hand against his unseen face.

After a full second, he once again brought it away from his face with torturous speed, ever so slowly-

Oh, he palmed his face again

...and another face palm.

...

Ruby did her best to make a weary smile and grabbed the offered help.

Well, at least she wasn't alone. Right?

Naruto walked with a dull expression on his face, trying his best to imitate the aura of someone who was tired and didn't want to interact with any sort of life form whatsoever. However, the two idiots in front of him couldn't get the clue and talked in a language he had never heard of before.

From this day on, the spiky blonde haired teenager has dubbed this new language 'Mentally Challenged Language.'

...alright, maybe he was being a bit rude. This was probably nothing however compared to when Ruby voiced her thoughts and called Jaune 'vomit boy', much to his secret delight. The other promptly responded with a solid 'crater face' and while that was admittedly a nice comeback, Naruto couldn't help but think that his way of talking was against his goal of being 'the one guy who steal everyone's girl and makes multiple waves of fangirls faint with a single wink'.

His feet abruptly stopped as soon as he saw the small girl named Ruby Rose bring out a huge collapsible scythe that could also take on the form of a high recoil sniper rifle.

The girl grinned, cocking the sniper-part of her deadly scythe. "It's also a gun."

Small or not, Naruto didn't want to mess with this girl anytime soon. And wasn't she a little too young to hold something that could cut a human in half with ease?

Jaune, completely forgetting that he was trying to get laid every night, smiled and huffed. He was honestly surprised and impressed at his new friend's weapon. "Oh. That's cool!"

"So whad'you got?" Ruby asked, leaning forward a bit with anticipating eyes.

The whiskered teen concluded that they were discussing about weapons.

A yes, the joy of weapons. Even Naruto would be lying if he said that he wasn't slightly interested in the second extension to our bodies. He spent many of his days, drooling in awe at the sight of tens upon hundreds of heavily customized weapons that were displayed in the nearby city that was a few miles away from his own village. From swords that could transform into numerous weapons to shotgun spears, clothes that hid gigantic blades underneath the sleeves and Naruto could even remember those seriously badass nun-chucks that could turn into a staff, too. It even had shotguns on it.

Unfortunately, on his way to other shops the day after the teen saw the weapon, it was no longer there. Whoever was the lucky bastard who had the money to get it, Naruto saluted them with both jealousy and pride. The weapon may be gone, but the memories will never be forgotten.

"Sooooooo..."

Two voices cut through his train of thought. The thinking boy blinked at the sudden attention, two pairs of eyes now looking at him and him only.

He could feel a bead of sweat run down his head. So what exactly was going to happen to him now?

"What's your weapon, stranger?" Ruby asked with a high pitched voice. She was clearly excited from showing off her weapon to somebody she had just met and was willing to know more about the other blonde.

Before Jaune could give his own two cents in, Naruto felt his lips twitch downwards. "My name is Naruto Uzumaki, not 'stranger'. Please try to remember that."

Blinking owlishly at the odd response, the rosey girl realised that she hadn't even asked for the blonde's name since she was so warped into the conversation with Jaune Arc. "U-Uh, yeah. Sorry about that."

Naruto shrugged and quickly swiped his fully outstretched hands in a backwards circular motion downwards, hands suddenly trapped in cuffs that looked comfortable around his wrists and chains seemingly out of nowhere. After the dramatic action, the blonde boy let his arm rest to the side and soon the chains flopped to the ground. Sounds of the same chain clashing against its own body was heard until it soon stopped, the last end of the metal string hitting its temporary end.

"My weapon is chains." He inquired, cerulean eyes looking downwards at the deformed shape of his weapon, two pairs following after him. "It's no guns or anything like that but I'll tell you now that weapons are by far the most powerful weapon I have come across."

"Huh?" Jaune rose an eyebrow and looked back up to see Naruto eye the chains intensely. "Why do you say that? How can you fight with these things?"

Rolling his eyes, the blonde boy already had an answer for this particular question. After all, this wasn't the first time he was asked something of the sort. "The weapon itself is free of movement, yet strong and solid enough to deal massive amounts of damage.

"For example, let's use a whip." The whiskered teen slowly turned to face the water opening besides the path and positioned his hands in preparation for the demonstration he was about to show. "You know that whips hurt, right?"

Jaune and Ruby oddly enough suddenly turned even more pale than Naruto could ever imagine and fearfully nodded, gulping loudly.

His body relaxed as Naruto rose an eyebrow, a frown marring his lips. "What's with the weird reaction?"

"I have a crazy sister and some really freaky friends." Ruby whimpered.

"Seven sisters." Was all he would get out of Jaune at this moment.

Ah. That made... sense?

Shaking his head, Naruto remembered the times his hot-blooded mother would punish him if he ever acted rashly in or out of the field. Her white, angered eyes and her hair slowly rising in the shape of nine tails...

A shiver was sent down his spine. "L-Let's say that I can... understand your fear of whips. Don't worry, though. I don't plan to whip you anytime soon."

At those words, Jaune and Ruby sighed in relief.

At those words, Naruto paused.

"...w-what's wrong?" Ruby asked, her fear of whips rising exponentially at the sight of her supposed mentor freezing on the spot with emotionless eyes. "Y-You aren't g-gonna whip us, are you?"

Sucking his lips in disappointment, Naruto quickly brought back his arms in the same motion he had brought out his chains with. By doing so, the chains were now neatly arranged so that they were looped around a weirdly invisible string and hanging loosely from his side.

He turned to face the other two, scaring them and making them squeal silently. Jaune could've sworn he wet his pants at this point.

"I forgot what I was gonna say."

...

...

"You're kidding, right?" Jaune asked.

"No." Naruto answered with a serious face. "I'm not."

A tumbleweed rolled by the scene.

"ARE YOU SERIOUS?!"

Naruto cringed and wiped his ear with his pinky but Jaune showed no signs of stopping. "You were serious, showing us your weird chains and giving us these cools instructions and all, AND YOU JUST FORGET?! Nobody, I repeat, nobody can do that! Period!"

"Alright, sheesh, take a chill pill." Naruto muttered, his hands pocketed and his posture slouched. He gave off the impression of a child being scolded. "I'm sorry. It's something I just do."

"Something you just do?" Jaune uncharacteristically looked like a demon. "You even forgot my name when I dragged you to Ruby over here!" At those words, he pointed at the startled and dazed girl who had stars swirling across her head.

Surprised at the sudden mention, the red cloaked huntress jumped slightly and gave her most intelligent answer she could. "Wha?"

"I can remember your name, Naruto, but you can't remember mine?!"

"In my defense!" Naruto raised a hand by his head with narrowed eyes and a stern expression splattered across his face. "I've forgotten my parent's names once when I was training with them!"

"..."

"..."

"...seriously"

"Yeeeeah. Something about meditating. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw both father and mother staring at me and the first words that came out of my mouth were 'Hey... uh.. biological earthlings?'"

"Wait. Wait, wait wait wait." Jaune brought a few fingers to his forehead, eyes closed in frustration. "You even forgot that they were your parents?"

Naruto nodded. "Pretty much. I remembered as soon as I said that but that didn't get me out of the beating they gave me."

"Hold it!" Ruby cried, her hands waving in the air. "So you're saying that your name's fishcake, your use chains as a weapon, you bring out a chain out of friggin' nowhere!-"

"Language." Naruto nonchalantly interrupted.

"-, you even forgot your parents names and you forget that they're your parents?! Just who are you?"

When Ruby said this man was interesting, she wasn't expecting weird interesting.

Naruto blinked before a somewhat snarky grin came across his face. He bit his thumb as blood slowly dripped out of said thumb, swung his arms in an exaggerated motion and set his feet apart a metre away.

Bending down, the whiskered man roared, "I am the killer of all ladies, the enemy of all men, the blonde guy who makes women faint in my presence and the legendary sage's legacy! I! AM! THE GREAT, AND ALMIGHTY PERVERTED NARUTO UZUMAKI!"

...

...

...

"..."

"..."

"..."

Yet another tumbleweed strolled casually across the beautiful scenery.

"...ah..."

Naruto, from weird and outright strange to crouching in a huddled position, sucking his thumb as he rocked himself gently. A rainy cloud set over his head.

"I-I did it again..." Naruto muttered. "D-Damn that perverted hermit, making me train one whole year on doing that s-stupid performance whenever someone asks who I am... it's become such a stupid h-habit... gah..."

Noting that the bleeding had stopped on his thumb, our spiky haired somewhat introverted hero sulked as he shoved his head into his arms. "T-This is why I want to be a normal h-hunter..."

Jaune and Ruby simply stood, dumbfounded by the somewhat extravagant entrance. If it was anybody else who had done it, sure. Ruby figured that Yang would've done it and still snag a boyfriend. Jaune figured that his middle sister could do it and the whole family would laugh.

But Naruto?

The guy who, in Jaune's mind, insults, is rude and sighs a lot?

The guy who, in Ruby's mind, is quiet, looks bored all the time and uses chains as a weapon?

Their heads robotically shifted over to scan the huddled boy's vulnerable form, unable to form words.

This guy?

"Ah well." Naruto quickly stood up and the rain cloud quickly vanished, his cheeks were dry, his thumb was unscathed and his face along with his body posture was slack. "I'll just bite my tongue and remind myself not to do that stupid introduction like last time."

'AND HE'S COMPLETELY FINE?!'

"What the heck?!" Jaune cried. He was clearly confused, as would anybody be in this situation. "Why are you fine after you just sulked about having this weird introduction?!"

"Blame dad." Was all Naruto said.

"What do you mean, 'blame dad'?!" Ruby followed right after Jaune, her eyes closed and her hands outstretched comically. "You just sulked for a whole minute, raining clouds and all and you just pretend it's nothing?!"

"But it is nothing." The whiskered teen said, tilting his head slightly to the left. "I don't know what's the big deal?"

"Is he an idiot?!" Jaune screamed, turning his face to meet the short girl's own.

"I think he is! And why are we screaming?!" Ruby shouted back.

"I don't know! Maybe because he's an idiot?!" The scraggly blonde cried.

Naruto's eyebrow twitched. He felt the hairs at the end of his neck stand up as his eyes turned inhumanly white. He brought a fist towards his face and grinded his teeth. "I CAN HEAR YOU!"

"Run for it!"

"Right behind you!"

If anybody wasn't as late as these three to the auditorium, they would've seen a blonde knight running behind a scared red girl with a red-caped man chasing after them with his fist raised.

From inside the stadium, a figure hummed slowly as he took a sip of his coffee, his eyes glossing over the masses of people standing in the facility.

"I'll delay the speech a little bit." He mused. "Something is telling me that we're not quite ready yet, in more ways than one."

AN: Hmm. I have a feeling a lot of you will be disappointed in this chapter since I feel that I lack the technique and skill to actually bring out the comedy in this chapter (or in this story at all huehue, who am I kidding I'm a humorless human being) but this chapter was more about giving more a more in depth focus on Naruto's personality.

Or lack of it.

Now before you question me, here's the answer for you - The reason why I cut the story out was since this Naruto is clearly different from canon Naruto (obviously), I had to somehow show you how he operates around certain situations as a result of his parents actually here to raise him.

You could say that instead of Naruto being just Naruto due to the lack of any actually upbringing of somebody and having a similar personality trait from them, this Naruto combines both of his parent's personality to become his own character.

A few won't like this idea and I know it, but in order for Naruto to not want to be the center of attention which we all know is what he does all the damn time, I had to change him slightly. It's not smart but I hope it's not downright retarded either.

Eh, who am I kidding. This is me we're talking about, everything that comes into my mind is retarded.

WHICH IS WHY IM SO HAPPY 39 PEOPLE LOVE MY RETARDEDNESS YES I LOVE YOU GIVE ME A HUG

Thanks for all the help, by the way. I'm happy about how this story is going and I'm sure a few of you can say the same. All feedback has been positive and while that could change, all we can do is move forward!

Read! You've already done that. Favourite and follow! Not forcing you, but PLEASE. Review! PLEASE GIVE ME MORE- I mean... you don't have to! Hahaha...

P.S. The fighting scenes are going to be epic and make the chapter much longer. I'll make sure not to bore you with my writing skills!

Not-aThinker14, wondering if he should go to sleep or not. Eh, it's 3:40am right now. Sleep is for the weak!
