Prologue

Listening to the overenthusiastic blonde was becoming a chore. His ideas proved to be promising, but his ability to slip the idea of ramen in every way possible was getting old. It should have gotten old after the first week he began fifteen years ago. Somehow the other men put up with his semi-comprehensible ideas while at the same time, they were sure their blonde friend had lost his train of thought.

One did not simply live in Japan or any first world country without knowing of the big four. The big four consisted of four of Japan's biggest companies, all of which who merged once the current CEOs had inherited them. For the everyday appliances from kitchen ware to washing machines, ovens, and refrigerators, Hyuga wasn't an unfamiliar name. Fashion and home décor was covered as well, only by Sabaku while Namikaze focused on construction and home renovation. Last but certainly not least, electronics covered by Uchiha – everything from your simple ear buds to your 3D televisions, and more.

Three representatives sat looking through their folders for their new branch in Canada. Hyuga's CEO, Neji Hyuga, had travelled to the site to check out the building itself leaving the other three – Gaara Sabaku, Naruto Namikaze, and Sasuke Uchiha – to revise any extras they might add to the building.

Naruto currently pitched his ramen stand in the staff room idea.

'Do you know where your children are? Because it's now twelve o'clock. If they're somewhere out on the street, just imagine how scared they are. She wrote tha–' Sasuke turned his alarm off.

"Three 'o clock already?" Gaara asked, raising an invisible brow. Sasuke simply nodded and began packing the folders and his belongings away in his Gucci briefcase.

"You know, that's an awfully terrible song to use as a reminder to pick your son up." Naruto noted.

"I use it because I can confidently say that yes, I do indeed know where my child is." Sasuke said, locking his briefcase.

Naruto looked at his best friend with a frown. "You should hire a nanny or something. You can't dip like this all the time."

"I don't need a nanny." Sasuke insisted. "Maybe a babysitter, but can I even trust one? I don't want to pay a large sum since they'd have to stay with Kei for long periods of time a day. I most definitely don't want any girls like your cousin Karin – I'd like to come home to know my underwear drawer hasn't been violated."

Naruto frowned at the thought of his cousin. She was quite the nut job…

"My girlfriend probably knows someone who will be of assistance." Gaara said. "I could ask her for you."

Naruto grinned slyly at his redheaded best friend. "Your girlfriend is that hipster P.Y.T." Naruto chuckled. "It must be hard dating a girl. I need a woman."

"God dammit Naruto, you're twenty five, not fifteen. Stop speaking in incoherent slang." Gaara grumbled. "Ritsuko is in no way a hipster, and is more mature than you make her out to be."

"She is a total hipster." Sasuke chimed in.

"She isn't." Gaara frowned.

"P.Y.T. isn't even anything of the new age. P.Y.T. as in Pretty Young Thang like the Michael Jackson song." Naruto explained. The two stoic men sighed. Naruto was trying to make a term that would catch on like he tried back in the eighth grade where he tried to get everyone to say 'Believe it!'

It dawned on Gaara that Naruto had referenced to his girlfriend as a little girl. Sure there was a bit of an age gap between Ritsuko and himself, but he didn't see it as anything of a big deal. She turned eighteen this year on the same day he turned twenty five – it's only seven years.

"Shut up, Naruto. Go find yourself a girlfriend, asshole." Gaara sneered. "I'd rather not have you jinx my relationship while it's in its current state. I'm hoping this fighting thing is only a phase."

Naruto couldn't believe that both of his friends were so dense about relationships. They were supposed to be the smart ones, and he was supposed to be the stupid one? Didn't seem right at all.

"I do plan on getting myself a girlfriend." Naruto said triumphantly. "Went to the club the other day with Sai, and saw this sexy pink haired girl who goes to the club frequently with this other hot blonde. The pinkie is as good as mine."

It was strange to hear that Naruto was friends with Sasuke's strange cousin, Sai. Sasuke never liked Sai, and Sai was frightened of Sasuke. Gaara on the other hand was more focussed on the bit about the pink hair.

"Pink hair? Naruto, I don't know many pink haired girls, but according to Ritsuko you described her friends Sakura and Ino. A pink haired girl with a blonde at the club – well, she hates Sakura but that's irrelevant." Gaara explained with an amused expression. "You yourself have decided to pine for a P.Y.T."

The newfound information hit Naruto like a meteor. The speechless blonde groaned and fell back into his chair. So much for woman.

"Anyways, give me a call if you decide you need someone to keep an eye on Kei. You can personally interview her." Gaara said.

"The bastard doesn't need a babysitter. He needs a girlfriend." Naruto said. "I mean come on! You have almost every girl in the country, if not the world, fawning over you as if you're some Abercrombie Buddha God. I find it hard to believe you don't have a girlfriend who could keep an eye on Kei."

Sasuke sighed. While it was true that he had his fair share of admirers, Sasuke wasn't ready for that just yet. He looked at the clock and realized how late he was and cursed. Bidding his friends farewell, he ran to the parking lot.

So...I really shouldn't be posting another story, but here I am doing exactly that.

Here's how this is going to work. This is the prologue for all three stories. Why? Because I'll be posting the chapters together so when I post the first chapter for this story, I will also be posting the first for the other two (one NaruIno, and the other GaaOC). I do suggest you keep tabs with the other two - no need to follow/favourite them if you do not wish to - because well, I guess it's interesting to see what's happening with everyone.

I will try to make the chapters as long as I can, and this is like something totally pulled out of my ass since I just wanted to try doing this three part story.

The description is vague because...because that's all I really need to introduce the subject matter to you.

Tata for now kiddies.
