Some day, this will be a "Last.fm/NetFlix/Amazon for web fiction"
(both original and fanfiction) where you can search
across many different hosting sites or rate what you've read and
get recommendations. However, life keeps throwing more urgent
projects my way, so I don't know when it'll be ready.
Naruto had been a nemesis to the village of Konoha for years, and not because of the fox demon he had only just come to realize was within him...but on his own merit.From tripwires to coffee cans to cake batter (actually, those three things had been used in a singular incident...Iruka had not liked it), Naruto had been nothing if not random in his pranks. Random, nondiscriminatory, and some might have said completely brilliant...as long as they weren’t on the receiving end of it.
One of the things Naruto had loved about his jokes were the looks of complete and utter shock on the victims’ faces. That gawk of indignant, disbelieving anger tinged with confusion and a dash of fear.
This day, none other than Sandaime had the distinct pleasure of seeing that same expression plastered on Naruto’s face after telling him that his first mission as a shinobi was to pick up litter.
...Unfortunately for Naruto (and infinitely more amusing for Sandaime), this wasn’t a prank.
