A/N: Sure, I took a lot from lots of things… anyway, if you recognize them just look up… yep, the disclaimer… Anyway, I got really influenced by this fic, Ultimate Uke Syndrome, or something like that. Bah, enough of this.

.
I made the characters, older since… I just want to. Jounin, and other grown-ups stay the same though.

Chapter 1 : Hot Springs
.
.
A beautiful bright day at the hot springs… that was what Naruto thought as Team 7 approached Volcano Valley for a little mission. That Valley, said to be famous for their exquisite and luxurious springs, had `monkey problems'…
“Ahh, finally you arrive!” A man that seems to be some sort of butler(A/N: I call `im butler cuz I dun know what to call `im…) reviewed them with their mission objectives. “A Huge monkey, AKA `Son Goku', has been harassing our customers lately, if you would, please exterminate it… or anything just to make it , eherm, leave…” The young man said horrified.
`Got to be careful, this monkey attacks men too…' Kakashi thought as he peeked his eye at the poor butler.
“Anyway… eherm, please take care of it as quickly as possible, and good luck in catching it.” The butler waved them goodbye. `Hmm… that's weird, I feel like I've forgotten to tell them something very very important…' The butler thought as he awaited more guests.
.
30 minutes passed
.
“Sensei, there it is!” Sakura said pointing at the `Son Goku' who was currently taking the clothes of some poor customer. Kakashi however, was too busy staring at some random hot lady taking a bath nearby. Of course she had towels on… but sheesh, Kakashi's the imaginative kind… at least in here. Sasuke began the pursuit, and Naruto's not just standing idly like the numerous bamboo rods sticking out of the ground. Sakura dashed and Kakashi just flashed them a you-can-do-it sign.
In the hot pursuit of the said monkey, they ended up at some secluded springs, passing the `do-not-enter' sign, which was really extremely hidden and was easy to pass, but still, they missed it.
The spotted the monkey. The monkey ran for dear life. They ran after the monkey. The monkey was so damned fast for itself. Sasuke was in the lead, but Naruto won't back down from a chance at beating that `bastard' at something. The monkey leaped high over a spring. `NOW!' Naruto thought as he sped up and chased after the `flying monkey'. It was a golden opportunity and Naruto could see it come into his hands as he felt the bushy fur having contact with his fingertips…
.
SPLASH
.
Meanwhile(ooh, so I finally found a purpose for this)
“Oh-Ninja-sama! Oh-Ninja-sama!'(1)
Kakashi turned to the panicky lad, “Hmm? What's the matter?”
“I forgot to inform you, but if you ever go past the `do-not-enter' sign, which was hidden incase it gets stolen by wild monkeys, please be careful not to drop into any of the springs… it has… err, mysterious effects.”
“Ohh…”
end of Meanwhile
.
SPLASH (or rather PLOP)
.
“EEEW YUUUCCCKKK” Naruto said as he bathed in icky, yucky, blobby, slimy, not-very-pleasant and doesn't-really-smell-like-flowers guck. He wasn't lucky and guess what, he didn't even catch the stupid monkey. `Crap.'
He looked up, only to see the reincarnation of evil-next to Sasuke and all his other I-just-know-u-r-demon-spawn acquaintances- balanced on top of a bamboo rod, squeaking and squawking and doing all sorts of random monkey noises. `I just know it's trying to say `stretch stick!'…' Naruto squinted his eyes at Son Goku who was now trying to charge it's power and become a super Saiyajin.
Sasuke, on the other hand was not dumb enough to fly towards gross muck like the monkey, and the other `blonde' monkey, did. Instead, he was going for the far better approach. `I wonder how fried monkey taste like… urk…' He quickly made the hand seals needed for his specialty, Katon Goukakyuu no jutsu.
On the sidelines, Sakura squinted. The smell was awfully familiar. She tried to sniff more, but her nose just didn't wanna. “What in the world is this foul smell!” covering her nose.
.
What in the world is this foul smell!” Sakura said as she covered her nose.
Jeez, haven't you seen decaying flowers? What you can smell is methane, and if you inhale too much of it, your forehead would probably explode!” Ino laughed out.
And why would it explode?”
Because the sun would reflect and create some sparks at your excessively large forehead! And since methane is flammable…”
.
METHANE? SASUKE-KUN STOP!”ooh, but she was too late. With a whip of wind…
.
KABOOM! (BAM! BLAG! BOOM!… after effects…)
.
After the explosion, the monkey was indeed a fried dish, and Naruto was well… dancing in flames… or rather dying in flames.
EAAAAAAAAGH! I'M ON FIRE! GYAAAAH! AAAAAAAH! HOOOOOOT! OOOW! AAAAH!”
It was a good thing that Sakura, who avoided the whole ordeal by simply using a ground jutsu, knew some medic-nin skills, or Naruto might have as well been a fried dish. Naruto passed out, and Sakura tended to his wounds, though she wanted to tend Sasuke's(if he had any) a lot lot more. The raven hair, much on the other hand, was unscathed due his sharingan that was sooo powerful, he only had to look at the flames and they'd scurry away.
“Hoho, what happened here?” Kakashi appeared with the poor ol' butler who is seemingly unaffected by the explosion. Actually he was wearing quite a happy face.
“Actually…” Sakura tried to explain, but Sasuke interrupted, holding the fried monkey, who gladly didn't turn to dust, like it was some sort of war trophy.
“Great! Thanks for your good work, and you even wrecked the place, wow! And we thought of hiring those expensive demolition crews to handle that.” The butler excitedly chirped.
.
Silence…
Then…
Sweatdrop…
.
Kakashi put the half-burned-to-death Naruto on his back, and was ready to return to Konoha when “Say, did anyone fall into the pools around here?” Kakashi questioned. Everyone nodded. And Naruto, he could only murmur
.
.
“… urgh, kame hame… wave…”
