"I'm just sayin' 60% income tax for the villagers."
Naruto sat in his mom's dusty home, having been sitting untouched for twelve years. His cousin, Karin was sitting right next to him, both of them sharing a loaf of pumpkin bread.
"So, how did you find this place again?"
"I snuck into the Old man's vault in his office.."
"Again? I thought you stopped after the smut incident?"
"I did, but I was walking past a family and I realized something."
"That being?"
"Me and you are cousins.."
"Yes, I am aware."
"And we're related to each other.."
"That's how being cousins work, yes."
"And our parents, are related to each other.."
"Yes, our mothers are sisters.."
"Right! So if your mom and my mom are related and the Kids public records mentioned something about her having a sister in Konoha, I realized I could check the public records for my mom!"
"And what did the records say?"
"Well, I found her, but it had no info except that she was dead and had a house that would go to the next of kin."
"Did it say where to find the keys?"
"No, but as per Konoha law, when a Shinobi dies all their possessions go to the listen next of kin, if none is listen it goes in the hokage vault, so I went snooping and eventually found the keys and papers to this place."
"Wow, you actually did something smart for once."
"Thanks, I try."
"So what're gonna do now that you have a house?"
"Well, considering the fact that this house was supposed to have been given to me when I became a genin and it was not, imma go run the old man's fade."
"You'll lose that fight."
"I know, it's the principle that matters though."
"I see and after?"
"Don't know."
"Y'know, now that you're probably gonna own this place you'll have to pay heavier taxes because you also own the land this place is on."
"I ain't payin' shit, these sons of the Kyubi owe me."
"Naruto, even Shinobi pay taxes, once you become one, you don't get out of it."
"..."
"Naruto, you pay your taxes right?"
"If anyone asks, then yes I do."
"Naruto..."
"Look Karin, I like my home and all, but not enough to give them money like that, especially when I learned that while I was living in an apartment I could've been living here!"
"Wouldn't living in this giant house you feel lonely though?"
"I was already lonely, that wouldn't have changed."
"Oh yea."
"Hey Naruto, if you ever become Hokage-"
"When."
"Right, when you become Hokage, I'm just sayin' 60% income tax for the villagers."
"I'd leave the Ichirakus out of it though."
"You can't play favorites, Naruto."
"And who would stop me? I'd be the hokage."
"I've been a horrible influence on you."
"How so?"
"I've corrupted your forgiving sunshine attitude! Off topic: but for some reason I've caught that Hyuga girl glaring at me."
"Nahhhh, you haven't been a bad influence, besides I taught you how to insult someone in thirteen different ways in one breath, so I'd say we're even."
