Day-Off

After the chit-chat with the Bijū, I left the conscious realm waking up at Night,

"Unfortunately, I can't use all the powers of the Bijū's, well, improving comes experience as well,"

I was resting on the grass, it was fine a touch that makes me want to stay, I want to nap here,

'Hm, Kagechi said, every time I unlock a tail of each power, I get new knowledge of the Yamihikari Clan since the information is secured for some reason, she said the way to unlock them is unlocking each tail, the last thing is that it will be a slow process,'

I only got a summary, it's still a load volume of information.

I stood and blew in all the lights of the lamps then slept on a small hill watching the night,

'This is calming,'

The moon still shone brightly, having a dim impression of languor, the wind lightly goes as I dreamed through the night as I was fast asleep.

...

"Ah~ That was pleasant," I woke just in time to see the sun almost gone, seemingly estimated to be six pm,

'I slept through the morning? Well, it was the best sleep I ever had. I should get going now~,'

I kicked up, then land on my feet, and looked around the forest as I felt a sense of comfort,

"I should take a break today, I only have a few hours, I should enjoy the village since it's a free day from the academy for some reason!"

I raised my arms as I stretched them, then sped to the Hidden Village of Konoha.

Arriving back in front of the Gates of Konohagakure noticing Naruto with two people, the first person I noticed was Shikamura Nara, from the Nara clan, and second was Chōji Akimichi, from the Akimichi Clan,

"Oi, Haya, where were you! It doesn't matter anymore, let's go to Yakiniku Q! Chōji's recommended restaurant!"

Naruto waved his hand while I walked to him, 'Yakiniku Q, the place where Chōji and his friends go to eat,' (Yaki+=Grilled+Niku=Meat=Yakiniku)

"So you are the Shikamura?"

I put out my hand as he shook my it,

"-Yawn, yes, so your Hayabusa? Nice to meet you,"

"The pleasure is all mine~"

I smiled as we chatted while Chōji ate his chip as he introduced himself too,

"I'm Chōji, How's it going Yamihikari-san,"

"Great! I never expected Naruto to have friends,"

Naruto reacted with an irritated expression, then Shiakamura spoke, "thought being acquainted with Naruto wouldn't be bad,"

Chōji too responded, "Yeah, he not so bad,"

"Good to know!" I replied as speculations started to generate,

'future seems to alternate new paths now.'

This time Naruto started to make friends early, the cause was my appearance, even the timeline is positively jumbled up, no matter what, a minor change will alter the future, giving out different destinies and outcomes, continue to interfere, it will cause a significant change that could possibly cause the Main Character of the story to change and some more, I should keep it at the main path. But I'm indefinite that the plot hasn't changed much, overthinking will cause a wrong conclusion and end up doing it.

Sometimes Ninjas (real ones) needs a break, doesn't mean I have to stop being cautious, that's why I thought, 'I need a day off from training.'

"Were here!"

We trod the path to Yakuniku Q while we converse of things, arriving at the entrance,

"I have never been here before,"

Me, telling the truth, "Then you're 'bout to!" Naruto replying, usually energetic,

"Mm~ smells good!"

I smelt the aroma, its scent was exceptional, they say don't judge by its smell, but though,

"Welcome in the restaurant!" (normally, Japan have restaurants has to greet their customer's nicely)

Some staffs welcomed us as we moved the Noren to the side, (Noren=Google it)

"Ah! Chōji is, here again, you sure like the place, brought friends too!"

An active middle-aged man spoke when we entered the place,

"~Four for one table please,"

Shikamura asking for a table while yawning, he sure is heavy-eyed,

"Follow me!"

The Middle-age man walks to our tables as we followed, right next to the window, we sat down looking through the menu.

Looking through, a waiter appeared,

"What can I get you?"

"Can I get this,"

I point at my order, everyone else asks different ones,

"Thank you again for ordering!"

The waiter left, leaving the group,

"This place is great! I'm already hungry,"

Naruto beginning a conversation grinning,

"Yeah, Chōji knows lots of good places to eat,"

Shikamura speaking as he lays his arm on the table,

"Mm!"

While Chōji, still eating his spare chips since his others where finished,

"I can't wait till we graduate, will you guys still continue as ninja's?"

As I spoke, I placed one elbow on the table as I rested my head on my hand,

"Yeah since my family needs me needs to become the Heir, I have nothing better to do than sleep,"

Shikamura replying, next Chōji spoke,

"Same thing, munch-,"

Chōji biting a piece of a chip, then Naruto speaks,

"As to me, I will become a Hokage!"

Saying Naruto, everyone except me was surprised,

"Really?" Shikamura mocks a little,

"Yeah! In the village, nobody treats me with respect, I want to become the Hokage, I want everyone to respect me, no matter what obstacle, I will still strive for the title, the Greatest Hokage that ever lived!"

Shikamura surprised of the answer, he starts to respect Naruto more,

"Well, he already told me this, I believe he can become a Hokage,"

I spoke in the middle of the conversation, Shikamura looked at me,

"Well, since Hayabusa believes you that much, I should too,"

Chōji too speaks,

"Me too,"

Naruto looks at us, "Than I should try my absolute best to become one,"

Smiling, "As mine isn't interesting that much, I want to join the ANBU forces,"

They replied simply, "And Hayabusa becoming an ANBU sounds too perfect for him Naruto,"

"Yeah, I can have you as my personal guard!" Naruto shouting again,

"I prefer getting paid,"

Having the conversation continue, our order arrived,

"Sorry for the late order," Waiter appearing with a bunch of meat and some vegetables,

"No worries, we were just having a good conversation," I expressed a smile

"Good to know," Waiter left as we get back to our food,

"We ordered this much?! it's like a mountain," Naruto pouts

"Deal with it and I'm paying," As Shikamura replies.

We consumed the food as well as enjoyed the food, for myself, I had a good night.
