Tale of the Skillful Ninja [Naruto/Fable]

[X] Point out the OBVIOUS fact that these masked hoodlums STOLE ALL OF YOUR TOYS. In whatever fashion you can.

I feel no special need to act cute for Sarutobi. He owes our dad big-time, and he's not gonna do us many favors in the future, I bet.

We explicitly can't talk. More likely this'll result in us playing baby charades with the Hokage.

 

T'be honest, I was hoping for Friday-esque shenanigans, like in the Jurisfiction books.

"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet!" he protested, and promptly burst into loud wails.

And so forth. Babytalk, but more insistent.

 

[X] Use the DEADLIEST weapon known to babies...

You somehow missed that we didn't say anything about talking.

Wow, the stupid IS strong here. Thanks for volunteering to be an example.

As you look up at the old man, a realization strikes.

If he put you here, he must have some authority over your watchers. If he does, then he can almost certainly order them to give you your toys back! So you force yourself to rise to your feet and grasp at the railing of your crib and look the man dead in the eye.

"Vegi em kab m ty!" You declare imperiously. The old man chuckles at your command, and pats you on the head, ruffling your hair uncomfortably. You frown at his lack of respect, and then repeat your demand- "Vegi t kab NAO."

Unfortunately, it seems despite your effort he still doesn't understand your perfectly reasonable demand. Instead, he picks you up and sets you on his lap, where he holds you. "You're a smart one, aren't you Naruto? It's almost like you're trying to talk to me already." That's because you are, idiot. "You've certainly inherited your mothers attitude. You'll make a splendid ninja and make her proud, I'm sure..." A splendid what now? And why does this old fool think he can decide your future for you? The nerve of some people...

[] Suffer in silence- If you don't pay attention to the fool, maybe he'll leave.
[] Start ranting at the man. How dare he manhandle you like this?!
[] Show your displeasure by relieving yourself right on the old codger's lap.
[] Write in?

 

[X] We are trying to talk, and we'll prove it to him! Try a simpler message, one that can get past your underdeveloped vocal cords. The counting sequence, maybe: Eh! Eh eh! Eh eh eh! Etc.

 

Wait. When did we start understanding their language?
[X] Suffer in silence- If you don't pay attention to the fool, maybe he'll leave.

 

It does help that the Hokage isn't using very big words, too. That and I don't feel like bothering putting down sentence fragments with gibberish between and don't know enough japanese to half-translate.

 

Ah, alright. Thanks.

 

[X] Fall asleep!

 

[X] Fall asleep!

 

Well. If the old man isn't going to listen to what you are trying to tell him, you might as well just go back to sleep. Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to be willing to let you go back down to your crib- So instead, you simply lean back into his lap and close your eyes. Ignoring his infuriating chuckles, you drift off into slumber quickly.

The next day, you wake up in your crib. It seems he put you back when he left.

Just as well, you suppose.

[Year 1, end]

What do?
[] ???

 

[X]We need to learn a bit more of this Cursed language. Its absolutely repulsive what they've decided to feed you, and must be dealt with. Even If all you get this year is Yes and No of the local language, you can call it an Astoundingly successful year.
[X]Getting our hands on some more things to throw would not hurt either mind you, its just, were not throwing them yet, we need a bit of a stockpile.

XD I'm Having some fun with this.

The dice smile upon me this day.

 

Annoyed at people's ignoring your completely logical orders merely because they cannot understand them, and aghast at the slimy muck they pretend is food, you put some serious effort into learning the local language.

It takes time and effort- But after a few months, you think you've got the vocal control to begin speaking.

First word-
[] No
[] Yes
[] Mine
[] Idiot
[] Kitty

At the same time, you begin working at building a stockpile of... Well, not weapons. As such. Except that handful of iron stars, and what is either a stupidly dull knife or the fanciest garden stake ever. Okay, so maybe there are a few weapons among the stockpile of things to throw at people you have stashed beneath your bed.

In your defense, if your guards hadn't wanted you to have those things they really shouldn't have let you steal them so easily.

[] What next?
