"Did you bring your wallet?"
"Yep."
"Enough clothing?"
"Uh-huh."
"Toothbrush? Overall cleaning supplies?"
"Yes, thank you for the reminders dattebayo." Naruto snarked, sending an annoyed look at his sister.
Mio huffed, turning her head to the side. "I'm just trying to help, maybe you forgot something and didn't think about it? I'm not going to be there to help you out after all."
"Help me out she says..." the shinobi returned disbelievingly. "If my memory serves me right, I've always helped everyone else, rarely have any of you freeloaders helped me out."
The red-head paused, considering.
"...I'll help out eventually." Mio shot back, confident in this.
"Key term; eventually." Naruto drawled with a teasing smirk.
Both teens were making their way from their home to Kuoh Academy, one decked out with it's uniform, and one without it.
Naruto was wearing a plain orange t-shirt with a gray vest over it, dark blue jeans, and orange-black sneakers to finish his ensemble.
Why was he wearing such clothing on a school day?
Why...because he wasn't going to class of course. As a matter of fact, he was gonna grab a taxi to grab a train to Kyoto.
All he had to do left, was see everyone off.
...That and make sure that the advice he gave them wasn't going to be wasted.
It's been a good three days since the 'incident' with 'Bapple' and Gama-tan, he had a couple of things that he had to do before he left Kuoh Town.
Speaking of which...
"Mio, you remember what I told you, right?" the blond asked rhetorically, seeing the gate of the Academy as they continued walking.
"Not at all." the red-head admitted readily, but before her brother could complain, she continued. "I didn't have to, you wrote it down on a list after all."
Naruto smirked, he did do that, didn't he? Man...he was so smart.
"...Careful there, don't want to congratulate yourself too much now. Like I said, I won't be there to bring your ego back down to earth." Mio said pointedly, a wry grin on her face nonetheless.
The shinobi chuckled. "Right, got it imouto."
The half-devil twitched, but didn't deign to reply. Instead focusing on the approaching figures of their friends as they reached the gate.
"Ah, there he is! Buchou! Naruto's here!" Issei called out, turning around to address the group behind him.
As expected, mostly everyone was there, waiting to give a farewell.
Honestly though...they were acting as if he was leaving for a month, this wouldn't take him longer than four days, max.
This was a 'get-in, get-out' situation, simple and quick. Unless some bad shit decided to happen...but his luck wasn't that bad, right?
"Glad you could join us, Naruto." Rias called out in greeting as the two siblings moved closer to the group. "Hope you had a pleasant break from school...while you left me to deal with Sona."
Ah, she was still sore about that, huh?
Yep, it was best that Gama-tan remained anonymous.
"Hey, I did cash in my favor, didn't I? Besides, because of me, you two got to spend more quality time with one another. That's always good, right?" Naruto stated, patting his back for a job well done.
"Oh yes..." the high-class devil grumbled. "It was a joy to deal with Sona after you blackmailed her."
"Buchou is a little sore about what happened, if you haven't noticed." Akeno said, her classic smile on her face. "It probably has something to do with how irritable the kaichou was."
Naruto gave her a tight smile in return. "Ah...she's...still upset about that, huh?"
"What do you think?" Rias grumbled again, crossing her arms in annoyance.
Asia, who was standing nearby the red-head, moved closer to her fellow blond and whispered in his ear. "Sona-san thinks that you are somehow connected to Gama-tan and Sairaorg-san. She seems convinced."
Naruto sweat-dropped, she genuinely was a lot closer to the truth than everyone thought, and he could feel his sister's stare bore into the back of his skull for it...
"How bad is it?" the shinobi eventually asked, looking entirely incredulous.
"On a scale from one to ten? I'd say eight, congratulations for getting so thoroughly under her skin. I didn't think that anyone except her sister could do that." Rias eventually responded with a sardonic smirk.
Sona, to put it bluntly, didn't want to talk, look, think, or even be in the general vicinity of Naruto. For obvious reasons.
So it was up to Rias to make sure that she didn't try to hit the blond with some sort of retribution.
Fun days all around.
"So...she's going to be alright, right? I don't have to worry about student council members trying to catch me with a giant net?" Naruto inquired steadily, remembering how close those evil bastards came to catching him like a butterfly last time.
"I'd be kind of surprised if she let it go so easily actually." Akeno noted.
"Yeah...I think the kaichou was a little embarrassed, you got her pretty good. Especially since she was shown up by the bapple and Gama-tan." Issei noted, with a grin. "I'm happy to say that I managed to score a shot on Gama-tan that day."
The blond unintentionally began to glare at the brown-haired boy, did he have to remind him?
"...What?"
"Nothing." Naruto dismissed gruffly, before looking around. "Where's Yuki by the way? I thought that she'd be here-"
"Present."
The blond nearly jumped out of his skin, turning around quickly to discover the young hero behind him.
"In the name of-! Give me a warning next time!" Naruto complained loudly, trying to calm his beating heart.
Damn it...he was distracted by the conversation...he needed to give her a bell or something.
