AC_D6: Behind the Scenes

To the person who asked about the “follow by email subscription list” - it should still be working.

This post will be a fill for this prompt “The crazy movie director from Naruto's past is making a movie based on the founding of Konoha......Harry accidentally gets cast in the part of Madara.” that was submitted by Haley Novak.

Naruto sped towards the tower,excited and ready to take on whatever mission he was being called in for. He hoped it was a super cool mission. Something that he could tell nii-san about later on.
Nii-san had loved hearing about all his older missions. 

All those dreams of important and flashy missions disappeared when he entered the Hokage's office. 

A familiar old man with blue tinted glasses and a brown outfit lit up with excitement as soon as he saw Naruto. “Ah, you've grown a lot over the years. kid.”

Naruto frowned, unsure of who the man was. 
The man realized this and before baa-chan or even Sakura-chan could say anything, he said, “It's me Makino. I hired your team while I was making my film in the Land of Snow with Princess Yukie.”

“Yukie-chan is here?” Naruto said with delight.

Makino slumped. “No. I can make movies without her.” He frowned and shook his head. “That's why I'm hiring your team again. I've been in a slump and I need some inspiration...”

Naruto glanced at Sakura-chan with a questioning look. 

Sakura-chan shrugged and signed that the mission would pay a lot even if it did sound weird. 

“and what better way than following you around?” Makino finished with a triumphant pose. 

Getting another shrug and an eye roll from Sakura-chan, Naruto just nodded. Baa-chan also made a hurry up motion that was hard to miss. “Okay.”

“Excellent,” Makino said and pulled out a small notebook as he walked to Naruto. “What were you planning to do this afternoon?”

Naruto blinked. “I was going to go home and tell nii-san that I had a mission and...”

“You have a brother?” Makino said and scribbled in his book. “Fascinating. Yes, maybe a story about family would be a good start instead of a fantasy. That's been done to death over the years...” Makino scribbled and muttered to himself the entire way to the apartment. 

Naruto was reluctant to bring the weirdo into the house but since it was a mission, he had no choice in the matter. So he took a deep breath and opened the door, “Nii-san, I'm home.”

The conversation inside the kitchen came to a halt. “Did you get a mission?” Nii-san called out from the kitchen.  “Can you eat lunch before you go?”

“Yeah,” Naruto replied. “I don't have to go anywhere. I just have to let Makino-san here follow me for a while.”

There was a clatter from the kitchen and nii-san came out of the kitchen with a frown. “Did you say follow... hello.” Nii-san's eyes narrowed with suspicion just as Izumo and Kotetsu appeared behind him. 

Makino looked between them for a long moment. “I see. Already an interesting dynamic. A protective older brother, no no, a charismatic and protective older brother...” his hand raced across the paper, scribbling as he spoke. “A brother with unique eyes. Hmm, maybe it should be more dramatic. Eyes that could kill, oh yes, that would do. Wait!” Makino stopped writing, “I've just remembered. That man from the founding era, from the clan with the killer eyes. Masato.”

While Kotetsu choked, Izumo said, “I think you mean Madara. Uchiha Madara.”

Makino snapped his fingers. “Exactly. The charismatic older brother who went mad after he couldn't protect his younger brother.”

“That's not what happened,” Izumo said. 

Makino wasn't listening. “A historical film about family and loss. That will be a hit. The biggest hit of my career!” He turned to nii-san. “You!”

Nii-san blinked, looking completely unconcerned by the weirdo in his face. 

“You shall be my star of my film. My breakout star. You shall be Masato!”

“I can see how this film got past the higher ups in Konoha,” Kisame said. “For a historical film, it sure as hell doesn't have a lick of history in it.”

Itachi glared at him. 

“You've already seen it,” Kisame said with a bit of annoyance. 

The glare didn't abate. Instead it got worse. “We're getting to the best part.”

Kisame sighed and turned back to the screen. 

With long black hair and elaborate red armour that Kisame had to concede looked rather nice if impractical, the lead character Masato looked at the bloody battlefield he had created. Kisame also conceded that the battlefield looked wonderful. Lots of blood and gore. 

The action wasn't half bad. And the film had had some epic large scale battles.They must have spend a fortune on the trained extras for those realistic war scenes. 

“What have I become?” Masato said, as blood dripped down from his eyes. “What kind of monster have I become for you Isamu?”

Kisame rolled his eyes at the dramatic lines, the only real downside of the film, and turned to Itachi only to pause in concern.

Itachi was reciting the lines in time to the film.

Poor Kisame, right?
