It was a windy day in Konoha. Not exactly stormy, where everything was flying everywhere, but the winds certainly weren't as tame as they usually were. Naruto was making his way back home, shivering just a small bit as another breeze blew by.
"Man, I gotta get home..." He mumbled softly, picking up speed. Just as his apartment complex came into view, something slapped him in the face. "What the!?" As the blonde pulled the piece of paper off of his face. Before crumbling it, he decided to at least glance over it.
Ichiraku Ramen
FREE RAMEN FOR LIFE!
Naruto had to do a double take as he looked at the ticket. He inspected it, even pinching himself to see if it was a dream! "Whoa, is this for real!?" He asked himself, still in disbelief. There was only one way to find out! Turning around, Naruto made his way to Ichiraku Ramen to confirm it.
Ichiraku wasn't very busy today. Teuchi and his daughter Ayame were bored. It was nothing less of a slow day. At least it was, until Naruto burst onto the scene! He had the ticket gripped tight in his fist as he walked to the counter.
"Naruto!" Teuchi greeted with a smile, "Good to see you! What can I get you?"
"Hey, old man Ichiraku..." Naruto said, holding no regard for Teuchi's name. "Is this for real?" He asked, a bit of childish excitement in his eyes as he awaited an answer.
Teuchi grabbed the scrap of paper from the boy. Looking over it carefully, he instantly recognized it. "Oh hey... I wondered where this went... I made this as a joke between me and Ayame today..." He chuckled a little, "Man we were bored... It must of blown out of the shack while we weren't looking!"
Naruto was looking at Teuchi, a little bit of hurt, but a little bit of hope still in his eyes. "S-So is it still good...?" He asked weakly.
