"Ahehehee! Aren't onsens wonderful? You see, Naruto. Not only are they invaluable for relaxing your body after a hard day's training, but you can also use them as opportunities to conduct research . . . " the grey-haired man said as they entered the facility. The pervert was grinning ear to ear, and rubbing his palms together in anticipation. There was also a faint pink blush on his cheeks.

It was about a week since his near-fatal encounter with the Kyuubi's power. After a few days in a hospital, Jiraiya was released and had limped with Naruto to the next town. But now here he was in a bathing facility famous for it's beauties, and Jiraiya appeared fully recovered and raring to go. Had to make up for lost times, those books didn't write themselves!

"Ahehehee! Aren't onsens wonderful? You see, Naruto.

" the grey-haired man said as they entered the facility. The pervert was grinning ear to ear, and rubbing his palms together in anticipation. There was also a faint pink blush on his cheeks.

"Ne, the hotsprings are relaxing until you get us kicked out for beign a peepin' Tom, Pervy sage." Naruto grummbled, "Plus, I think your research is stupid! Hmph." he put his hands behind his head as they neared the onsen. "Can you atleast try not to get caught this time? I don't want to be carried out of the hotspring like last time, 'tebayo..." he sighed and shrugged.

Although the Uzumaki seemed like his normal self on the outside, he was tearing himself apart on the inside. Nearly a week ago, the Nine-tails had been released during a training session with Jiraiya...the blow to the chest he recieved nearly killed him. The blonde shuddered at the thought, clearly Jiraiya couldn'tbe mad at him...cold he?

**Croup** · February 18th, 2009, 11:06 PM

"Hmph! A kid like you couldn't understand the importance of my research . . . " Jiraiya replied. He poked his student in the chest. "And the only reason I got caught then was because YOU were there! Keep your big yap shut this time and it'll go fine!"

His eyes suddenly acquired a starry look. "Hang on, my pretties. Jiraiya-sama is coming for you . . . !"

They entered the changing room and the man quickly threw off all his clothes before wrapping his midsection in a small towel. Then he burst out into the onsen proper. He'd heard that the first view was the most incredible sight--

Jiraiya's jaw dropped.

Last year the onsen had renovated, and there was now a tall barrier wall between the men and the ladies' sides. Too tall for even Jiraiya to climb without considerable difficulty.

"Ugh! What a let-down!"

**Kerushii-danna** · February 18th, 2009, 11:11 PM

Naruto was mumbling something when he came out of the dressing room. "EH, LOOK!" he pointed. "HAHAHA!!" he started laughing. "NO RESEARCH FOR YOU, DATTEBAYO!--" he stopped himself when Jiraiya turned around with that unmistakable scar on his chest. He couldn't stop staring at it; memories flooded his mind. He remebered faintly what had happened, but he couldn't remember what happened after Naruto had sliced his chest open. He shook his head, trying to get rid of the thought. "Go away...tebayo..." he muttered to himself and rubbed his eyes.

**Croup** · February 18th, 2009, 11:24 PM

The man scowled in Naruto's direction, before wading out into the water. "Bah! Something like that won't stop me . . . I'll just get in a good soak first . . . "

When his usually obnoxiously loud student suddenly got quiet, Jiraiya glanced over to him. The whiskered guy was looking somber now, head down, and he hadn't even gotten into the water yet. Jiraiya had a feeling he knew why, too. For the couple years it'd always been about Sasuke, but since the training accident Naruto had also added Jiraiya's new scar to his list of concerns.

The man touched his chest, briefly. It still ached occasionally, and was none too pretty to look at. But it hadn't been Naruto's fault and no matter how many times he told the kid that it never seemed to sink in.

"Oi, you think this is bad, brat?" he suddenly grinned at the guy in an effort to cheer him up. He sunk in to his waist and propped his elbows behind him. "You should've seen me after the one time I tried to peep on Tsunade . . . I was in the hospital for much longer that time, heheh . . . "

**Kerushii-danna** · February 18th, 2009, 11:32 PM

"Huh?" the blonde asked, and looked up, walking over to the water, he sat down on the edge, sticking his legs into the water. "...eh...really?" he asked, scratching hishead. "Because well...well...it looks like...it kinda....hurts....tebayo...." he mumbled and looked at the scar again. "And I can't get over how it was...my fault..." he looked down i the water again, playing with his feet. "...I almot killed....you.."

**Croup** · February 18th, 2009, 11:46 PM

The man sighed and leaned back further in the water until it covered his abs. The way his student looked sitting there, wallowing in his depression--it just wasn't right.

"Don't let it get to you, brat," he said. "Accidents happen even in training--especially in training--and the best thing we can do is learn from them and move on. Just because you lost control for a split second . . . It was my fault anyway, for being careless."

He directed a squirt of water at Naruto's face. "Now stop kicking those legs and get in here. You've got road-dust all over you."

**Kerushii-danna** · February 18th, 2009, 11:51 PM

"Heh, 'k, Pervy Sage." Naruto crawed in, letting the nice warm water soothe his aching body. "...but...erm...Pervy Sage. Even though it was...kinda of accident...well,...well...I wanna take full reponsibilty for it!" he stated bluntly. "I deserved to be punished in some way for my actions!..."

**Croup** · February 19th, 2009, 12:01 AM

Jiraiya raised an eyebrow. "Punished?" he asked. A sudden mental image rose, unbidden, to his mind . . .

* * * * *

"I've warned you before about peeping on girls when you're supposed to be on a mission, Jiraiya," said his old sensei, the Third.

"Aw, blow it out your ass, old man!" Jiraiya-the-genin had answered.

His face turning red with anger, the man had caught Jiraiya by the ear and dragged him over to a nearby log. "That's it. You're going to get punished good," he'd said.

"Huh? Hey! Sarutobi-sensei! Ow! Let go!" Jiraiya had yelped. But his sensei didn't listen and, instead, hauled him over his lap.

"You've had this coming for a long time!" the man said, yanking Jiraiya's pants down to his knees. Then he got to work heating up his young backside.

"Wha--? Oww! Nooo!"

* * * * *

Jiraiya coughed, and spread his legs under the water. It'd been years since he'd thought about those old days. "What do you mean, you deserve to be punished?" he asked him intently.

**Kerushii-danna** · February 19th, 2009, 12:29 AM

"Punished...well, eh...I dunno, Pervy Sage. B-But it has to be firm!" he huffed, crossing his arms as suddenly a image from his childhood flashed in his mind.

*****

The walls of the Academy had been spray painted...

"Ahehehehe...sensei, I can explain." Naruto rubbed his head.

"You better; you have some major explaining to do, mister!" Iruka had said, and quicky dragged the little fiend inside; Naruto was flailing over his shoulder.

"G--wah! Sensei, put me down, tebayo!" Naruto protested.

"I'll put you down." he replied, pulling out his swivel chair. He took a seat and threw the little troublemaker over his knee.

"Th--EEH, SENSEI!!" was what Naruto had shrieked before Iruka slapped his bare ass.

*****

"So, yeah...I must be punished for my actions, tebayo! I can't live with this guilt much longer, Pervy Sage!"
