A man sat upon a boulder in Konaha's training ground 8. He was seated in an Indian position. His legs crossed underneath him with his back stiff as a board. His arms stretched out down his legs so his wrists rested on his knees. His hand were in an odd shape. His forefinger and thumb were pressed together to make a circular shape. His middle ring and pinky were pointing straight away from his hands as he sat motionless. His outfit marked him as a shinobi for any who came across the area. his dark gray shirt sticking to his chiseled chest. His six-pack on display even though he was clothed. His muscles rippled as he took a deep breath filling his broad chest. On his right arm, his hit stood proudly displayed as it gleamed in the sunlight, its black cloth hanging down to his waist. On his waist, a burnt orange colored sash was wrapped with the extra length hanging down the boulder, showing it would hang to the man's knees if he were to be standing. On his legs, a dark gray pair of pants lay covering his legs. His feet had on a sandal and boot combination which provided maximum protection for his feet during taijutsu, but also provided a comfortable fit. The features that were most prominent for this shinobi, however, were on his head. A top his head, a mop of spiky blonde hair swayed in the wind as it caught the sunlight gleaming almost as bright as his hit ate. His eyes were closed, but everyone knew that those eyes were as deep and as blue as the ocean his name hinted at. Finally, the lower half of his face was covered by a black face mask, much like his previous sensei. But underneath it lay six whisker marks that marked him as the ginuriki of the Kaobi Nokitsun. After the pain attack, Sununade had awoken to attend the five cage meeting. After Nar had encountered Sasake again, Narut had traveled to Kumo himself with the help of the toads, he went alone and confronted Kurabi or killer B, the only other Gingeriki in the world. After Akitsuki had managed to hunt all but those two down, he had with quite a bit of his usual attitude, managed to convince Kurabi it was best that they attend to the front lines and attacked Akatsuki's main base with just the two of them. Before their attack, the five cages had been discussing what to do about the Akatsuki threat when Mochiha managed to inform them of his Moonsai plan. After Moa had left, the cages had decided to hide away Kurabi and Narut to avoid the Akatsuki getting their hands on them. Little did they know, their efforts would be feudal. Kurabi and Narut had managed to easily dispatch Zetsu, leaving only Kisame and Matera as opponents since team Taki had not been at the base. Kurabi had easily defeated Kism after overloading his Infamor samahada sword. The sword was meant to eat Chakra and managed to eat away five of Kurabi's eight tails before overloading itself and being poisoned by the Yuki it had absorbed. Without his main weapon, Kisame had managed to put up a very good fight, but Kurabi had dispatched him rather readily upon destroying Samahada. Narut had confronted Matera as soon as he returned from the five cage summit. Using his sage mode, he attempted to defeat Matera. However, it had proven feudal as Nar had not been able to land a single hit. When Moa had been assured of his triumph, he played with Nar and attempted to go him while stating he was going to destroy Konaha. Nar had merely smirked as he looked at Moa and revealed his trump card. Nar had appeared behind Moa in a yellow flash and plunged a recent into Moa's body, managing to do the most damage to him since his fight with the Shadime. Narut had taken advantage of Moa's moment of weakness in M to finish off the supposed immortal being. Thus, the fourth shinobi war was averted by the two beings that it was to be fought over. Nar and Kurabi had regrouped only to be assaled by Suigettsu and Jugo with Sasake right behind them. As powerful as team Taki was, they held no chance against Naruto's Horizon jutsu combined with his devastating taijutsu in sage mode. Both had been knocked unconscious so fast even Sasuke's eyes had trouble keeping up. Kurabi had merely picked the two members up as Sasake attempted to subjugate the Kaobi within Nar. Itachi's gift had activated, permanently sealing Sasake's Mangeku and leaving him with his normal Sharing eyesight. Naruto had proceeded to knock him out and the last two ginuriki of the world headed back to Konaha to take the biggest lecture of irresponsibility ever given by their cages. Nar and Kurabi had simply ignored their talks as the two were now hailed as heroes within the world. Both had separated, but they were great friends even to this day. Naruto's eyes snapped open as he detected an odd chakra signature near the monument to fallen heroes in his old training ground. He would normally ignore any chakra signatures, but this one felt as strong as his own before he left on his training trip about 5 years ago. That was no small amount, and no one within the village came close to it except Jeriah, and he was out training the next spy master so he could retire. He had managed to flee from pain in a Megaker and met back up with Sununade when Narut had been attacking Matera.Sunady had almost sent him back into the grave, but her relief had made her do something she had never done before. She kissed him and told him to never leave her sight again. He had happily complied until she gave him a mission to train the next spy master. He was due back in the village any day now. Naruto's eyes were not his normal blue. However, the orange coloring around his eye along with the yellow iris combined with a horizontal bar for his pupils signified the activation of his sage mode. He stood up to his impressive full height of 6'2 in and bounded off into the woods to see who this odd shinobi was. As he traveled the short distance, he wondered why this shinobi would not have ambu escorts, especially since he or she was not a Konaha shinobi Narut had met before. He had worked with most Anbu by now, so he was fairly sure he knew almost everyone within the Konaha system. He decided to observe this newcomer before approaching them. His previous battle experiences keeping him from making the mistake his younger counterpart may have done and rushed in introducing himself. He stopped on a tree limb overlooking his old training ground and suppressing his chakra, spied the lone person standing in front of the monument. He narrowed his eyes as he took in the fully robed figure. The person had its whole body covered in a plain brown cloak so no one could see any distinguishable features. Though the stance the person took led Nar to believe this person was female. The way the cloak fell did not lend anything else to the observant eyes of Nar, but he could pick out the slight bulge of a canai pouch on her leg along with a sword along her back. Just as he was about to jump forward and confront the woman, she turned around and her eyes locked with his as his breath hitched. Kusha Uzuaki was back in Konaha after 18 years of running away from her horrid past. She stared down at the monument stone depicting the names of many Shinobi which had died alongside her in the third Shinobi war. Her fingers traced the names of many of her friends who had died in battle. ending on the reason she had left Konaha in the first place. Even though it was her home, Manado, she thought as her finger traced the name of the Yandami Hokag, theirs had been a secret relationship, but when he had found out she was pregnant, he had been as ecstatic as she. She had kept on the active duty roster as long as possible to make less people suspicious, then was put on maternity leave with only knowing of it. Boako Serobi had been her birthing doctor even though Sununade mainly took care of her. She had been out of work for about six months when she gave birth to their little bundle of joy Nar. She thought as she scanned the names on the monument looking for his name. She was sure they would honor the sacrifice he made by giving his life to seal that damn Caillou. She knew not why Caobi attacked, but she could only curse it to hell as it took both her husband and son from her. She had spent the better part of 18 years running from that damned pervert spy network so she could live in peace with nothing to bother her. She had managed to settle down about four years ago and had been living peacefully until the recent events with Ginuriki were made public. That was part of the reason she was in Konaha. She had snuck in to see and try to get information on how they managed to perfect the ceiling of the Kaobi. Mostly she was wondering who this hero of Konaha everyone kept talking about was. She had heard many things about him and she was quite interested in who the identity of this person was. She only ever heard of different names, never his actual name, which was quite odd. Her mind returned to the present as she looked down at the stone and realized her son's name was not on the stone. Her anger flared and she was about to stomp off when her sensors kicked in and informed her of her guest. She turned around with fury in her eyes as she stared at the man who was hiding in the treeine. Naruto's breath caught in his throat as his toad sage eyes locked with those furious emerald green eyes. Nar had never seen such gorgeous eyes on anyone, not even Sakura. He noticed red hair was poking out form the shadows of the hood, but the rest of her face was hidden within the robe's shadows. He sued staring at her for a few moments before she spoke in a clear authoritative tone that had shivers running down Naruto's back. Shivers he wished he could forget as he only ever was hurt from them. He shook that thought off quickly as he listened to her voice. "Well," she asked. Naruto withheld a blush as he realized he had been staring but quickly recovered as he remembered his initial reasoning for being in this field. He appeared next to her in a burst of speed enhanced by his toad sage powers as he towered over her 5'5 5 in stature. He crossed his arms and put on his war face, his toad sage eyes becoming seemingly icy. Who are you and what are you doing here? He asked. It is polite to introduce yourself first before asking for a person's name. Kusha retorted. Naruto<unk>'s eyes narrowed. Indeed, but not when said person is an invader in your own home. You are not of Kanahagakar and I have never seen you before. You have no Ambu guards, which means that either you are a native, which I already know you are not, or you are someone who snuck into the village. Nar explained. So, who are you and what are you doing here? He asked again if Kusha was impressed she didn't allow it to show as she stared into his eyes. Nar had to consciously tell himself to not fall to her captivating green eyes. She finally asked another question. If I tell you my name, would you tell me yours? She asked, why would you want to know my name? He asked. Kusha seemed to hesitate but she answered judging from what I am seeing you are the man they call the hero of Konaha are you not? She asked. Nar nodded stiffly. You intrigued me. I wish to learn more about you. She said honestly Naruto's eyebrow raised. So you came here just to get to know me. He asked with a bit of trepidation. Not entirely. I want to see some old friends as well. Kusha said deciding being honest was the best way to go. Narut nodded very well. If you tell me your name, I will tell you mine. He responded he had learned the advantage of keeping secrets in his fight with Moa. Kusha stared hard at him as if she was trying to tell if he was lying or not before she glanced back at the stone and Nar saw the previous fury spring back to life in her eyes. One other question, she said as he nodded. Why is the previous holder of the Kaobi nod on this monument? She asked. Nar cocked his head to the side in confusion. What previous container? He questioned. Kusha's face contorted into a scowl as she thought her son's sacrifice had not even been made known. Not that Nar could see it. My son's name. The previous container for the Kaobi. He died the night of the attack as the seal did not take on him. She stated vehemently. Naruto's body froze as the implications of what she was saying ran through his mind. Was he the second container? No. The Yandami had said he was the first. His father had said he was the first. With that suggestion thrown out of the window, Naruto's mind began to run through her entire statement, picking up one word. Son, could it be possible? Kusha did not miss the stiffening of his body, though she knew not what had caused it. Her fury was palpable in the air as he stood ramrod straight in front of her. What? He stated in almost a whisper. Did you say your name was? He asked just as quietly. Kusha's fury increased, but she drew herself up to her tallest height and glared at him through her cloak. Uzzu Maki Kusha, she said. Nar felt his mind crash as it attempted to reconcile with the information in front of him. Here stood his birth mother, from all accounts, completely fine. And she had been gone. Where had she gone? What has she been doing? Why wasn't she here? All of these questions raced through Naruto's mind as his brain rebooted to accept what was right in front of him. It scared him. It frightened him. He knew not what to do. So, he did what he did when he was young and the mobs would come looking for him. He ran. Nar turned on his heels and dashed from the clearing. His chakra no longer being concealed flushed over the city, drawing wide eyes from all of his friends. He hadn't done this since his last prank. But he ran and ran until he could run no more. Then he broke down and did something he had promised he wouldn't do again after Jeriah's supposed death. He cried. He balled his eyes out to the world as he mourned for something he never had. A mother. Kusha stood shocked at the actions of the man she had just encountered. As soon as she said her name, the man dashed away as if trying to run from her. Then she felt it. A presence so overwhelming she thought she was in the Cailly presence on the night of the attack again. Her sensor blasted her with the impression of three different yet same eyes bearing down on her. The first, the same eyes that she had just been staring into, leading her to believe that he was the one with that presence. The second, those same eyes, but his pupils now looked like a skewed cross with slits for the up down part of the plus sign. The final eyes, ones which had her blasting to her past, were ocean blue eyes that were as deep as the blue they contained. She felt herself tremble under the weight of his presence as he traveled faster than she had ever felt anyone travel. He was a mere blur to even her sensor ability. His massive chakra moved as if he was being chased by the Kaobi himself. Her mind had frozen upon the image of the final set of eyes staring into her mind. The pain and loneliness reflected in his eyes freezing her in her place as she attempted to understand why someone who was hailed as one of the most popular people in the world would be lonely. It also struck a cord deep in her heart as she knew what that loneliness was like as her whole family had been taken from her. She wondered briefly why he would react so badly to just her name. But it was quickly erased as she felt the amboo moving towards her location. She suppressed her chakra again and berated herself that she had allowed her chakra signature out as she used her considerable stealth abilities to sneak further into the village. She slipped past the net of an ambu and other strong chakra signatures that had been rushing around since that man's chakra had washed over everyone. She reached out her sensor to try to find him, but his signature had seemingly disappeared. She felt people heading to his last location, but he had moved so far that they would probably take about an hour just to get to him. She sighed as she felt the last ambu pass her and head towards the monument she had just been at. She turned and headed to her old apartment. She wasn't sure why, but she had a feeling it was still standing, even taking into account everything that had been done to the village since she left. She traveled discreetly, jumping through the woods until she reached the edge. Then she dropped to the ground and walked out of the brush, heading further into the village with no one capable of detecting her aside from that man. She grew frustrated as she walked around in circles within the village. Her apartment was guarded by a signature much like that of that same man. She cursed as she decided to risk it. She wasn't ready to confronts with the whole village awake right now. She climbed the stairs with the skill of a kunoichi she had gained during her childhood of fighting. Her steps lie and graceful as she bypassed the creaky wooden stairs to make her seem like a ghost as she made nar sound while she continued to the top floor of the apartment building. She smirked as she reached the top floor. Still got it? She thought. She walked end of the hallway and took out an old key from within her cloak. With the parting of her cloak, one could see she had tight-fitting clothes hugging her curves. The armor would look to be regular amboost standard in a pitch black color with the only color was a splash of red stripes running down the sides of her outfit. She reached forward and unlocked the door. She smiled and opened the door only to freeze at the sight of the same man standing in front of her from before, though his eyes were no longer horizontal bars with yellow irises and orange coloring. They were the same blue she had seen earlier, causing her body to freeze as his gaze locked with hers. "Who," the man started to say, only to grab his head as if in pain. Kusha watched as the guy stumbled slightly before his eyes snapped to hers with cold fury, but a hint of Korea underneath. "I believe you should go see Hokag Sama Kusha San," he said in a cold voice. Kusha looked slightly takenback. I'm not ready to face her just yet. How in the hell did you get here so quickly from where you ran? She asked angrily. Why are you even here? Her anger flashing in her green eyes as she glared at Nar. Naruto's eyes softened a bit as he said, I don't care if you aren't ready. If you don't go see her soon, there could be widespread panic. Kusha looked confused as her anger seemed to fade with his odd statement. As for your other questions, I was always here and I am here because this is my apartment. He answered with finality. Kusha looked at him incredulously for a second before she said, "Cage Bunchon." Nar nodded. Boss always leaves one at home in case someone needs something. He replied, "This is my apartment. This wouldn't have been given to you." Kusha said, "All will be explained when you go talk with Hokag Sama." The clone clutched his head again. If you don't go see her before the boss gets here, this could get quite messy. We aren't known as the most powerful ninja in the elemental countries for no reason. Kusha san. Please go see Hokag sama so nothing happens. Kusha looked back outside and noticed there was about an hour until nightfall. I will go see her at nightfall, she said. The clone looked at her for a few moments, then cocked his head to the side as if calculating something or receiving orders. "Very well, but you will have to stay in this living room. Boss doesn't trust you," it said. Kusheena<unk>s eyes narrowed, wondering if she could dispel the clone for distrusting her. But she decided she would show this hero why she was the red hot-blooded habanero, but decided she would show the original firsthand. She stepped inside and closed the door behind her as she went and sat on the sofa. There was a tense 45 minutes until Kusha said, anger still present in her voice. You never told me your name, she accused. The clone looked at her and smiled under his face mask. "No, I guess I didn't. You will learn it soon enough. I don't want you creating a scene when you find out," he said. Kusha<unk>'s eyes narrowed again. Why would I cause a scene? Even if I did, I doubt it could be as big as when your boss let his chakra go uncontrolled, she retorted. The clone's smile disappeared as it was reminded exactly who this was. You will cause a scene because you will be pissed. I don't think the village can take another chakra signature like yours to go out of control just yet, he retorted. And they both fell into silence until the sun disappeared. Time to go. See you soon, Kusha San. The clones tone back to being its icy cold, sending shivers down Kusha's spine. She glared at it as it suddenly disappeared. She sat there a little while longer, debating what to say when she finally sighed and stood up, heading out to the Hokag tower. Nar sighed as he felt his clone dispel. He had finished crying after about 20 minutes. He had never really cried that long since the old man's death. He knew that she was his mother, but she didn't seem to hate him for being a ginuriki, so he was curious about her actions. He slipped under the ledge to the hoage's office. He knews would still be in the office as she always took longer to do the paperwork than should be done. He was curious about what this was going to reveal. He had never asked or Jeriah about his mother as he had been too absorbed with what was going on with the world then training when he got back that he hadn't even claimed his father's last name yet. That didn't mean he wouldn't hold some resentment over the fact they would neglect to tell him after he had revealed he knew his father. So he hid his chakra signature as only he and Jeriah could do and settled in to listen to an enlightening conversation between his birth mother and though he would never admit it, his mother figure. Kusha snuck past all of the amboo and made it to the hoage's door. She reminisced for a few moments, wondering how long it had been since she had seen her old friend. She was curious what the years had done to her. She sighed as she thought of how lack security seemed. She knocked politely on the door, figuring since she had gotten here, any remaining Ambu would be dismissed by Sununade herself once she confronted her. "Come in," a tired voice said. Kusha easily recognizing her friend's voice after all these years. She pushed the door open and stepped inside, quickly shutting the door as she looked around the room to notice it hadn't changed much in the almost two decades she had been gone. She saws questioning look but did not speak up asade had not asked her any questions. She continued scanning the room with her eyes as she counted mentally. One behind the bookcase, two by the windows, and there should be one more. All right. By the door, of course, she thought to herself as she picked up the four hidden chakra signatures within the room before Sunnade could speak. Who are you? Sununade said with Kurai in her voice. You might want to make this conversation a bit more private. Hokag sama or some serious repercussions could be set in motion by carelessness. Kusha replied in a cold tone. narrowed at the perceived threat. Are you threatening me or my village? she questioned with a hint of anger, lacing her voice. That would not be wise, Kunoichi Sanpecially since I could snap you like a twig before you could do so again. Kusha smiled under the cover of her cloak. Same old Su Chan. This has something to do with Arashi Kazama, she said. Widened as she stared hard at the woman in front of a few knew that name, and she could count them on one hand. Sununade waved her hand. Leave us, she said. The four hidden Anbu appeared and bowed before Shun shining away. Sununade reached under the hoage's desk and activated the security seals within the room. The walls glowed blue before Sununade fixed one of her most lethal glares on the woman in front of her. "Talk," she said. Nar cursed his luck, then Cami he and Aerosen had placed seals that allowed them to bypass the Hokag privacy seal while on this ledge. convenient. No, it was a way for their spy masters to be able to help the Hokag without them knowing. The best part was only someone keyed into the array would be able to use the seal and currently only Nar and Jera were keyed in. The new spy master would be keyed in once Jeriah returned. His lips formed into a foxy grin under his face mask. It was good to be a prankster. Kusha's smile never wavered as she looked at her old friend. Now, is that any way to talk to an old friend, Su Chan? Kusha said, her icy tone replaced with a playfulness she hadn't felt in over 18 years. Widened. That voice she hadn't heard that voice in over 18 years. Plus, only one person called her Such Chan. Kasha, she exclaimed. Is that really you? A thousand scenarios running through her mind as she tried to figure out what was going on. She was supposedly dead. Kusha chuckled slightly as she finally pulled her hood back, revealing her face for the first time. Naruto's, who could still see despite not being in the room, jaw dropped as he beheld the beauty that was Uzumaki Kasha. Her face was angular, no doubt from the intense training she must have done in her absence. Her jawline led upwards to strong cheekbones that ended in a sharp nose. Her eyes were an emerald green that ed Nar in just as the first time he managed to glimpse them through her cloak. The light finally reaching them did terrible things to Naruto's self-control. Her hair was a bright red that fell down to her midcavves. Two bangs framed her face, one side hanging down to her full, luscious red lips. The other was held up by a hair clip, but it only served to enhance her already fair skin. All in all, Nar could definitely tell why his father could have fallen in love with the angel in front of him. While he may have been dense when he was younger, his current lifestyle, author of the Aika Aika series, forced him to appreciate the female body, leading to him shamelessly admitting that his mother was definitely one of the most beautiful women he had ever seen, even without seeing her body. He brushed these thoughts out of his head as he refocused on the conversation between the two Kunoichi. Sununade's own jaw dropped as she beheld how Kusha looked. "What the hell? You don't look a day over 20," she accused to the increased chuckling of Kusha. "I love the look on your face," Kusha said as her chuckles became full-blown laughter at the incredulous look from Sununade. face developed a tick mark indicating her anger as she started to growl slightly. "Kusha," she said in a low, menacing voice, causing Kusha to sober almost instantly as she knew this was going to be an important talk. "All right, enough horsing around. I suppose you want an explanation," she said. Getting a curt nod from Sununade. She better have a good reason for abandoning Narutkun. The brat may be annoying, but he doesn't even know her name yet. Oh, how wrong she was. Kusha sighed as she walked forward and sat down in the chairs before the Hokag desk. Her eyes flashed to Manato's picture. An expression of sorrow went across her face as she saw his picture. She turned back to Sununade and began her story. Long story short, once the ceiling failed, I left the village with nothing to keep me here. I spent the last 18 years running from Jeriah's spy network. I managed to settle down about four years ago, but once I heard of this hero of Konaha, I wanted to see him myself as well as see what this new seal looked like since the one for my son didn't work. I had heard this hero is a ginuriki that beat Ma. Also, I should pay my respects since my hurt was finally starting to fade, so I made my way here. I snuck into the village and here I am. She left out her meeting of the hero as she wanted to find out more about him before saying that she had upset him. Sununade's face was one of confusion almost from the first word that had left Kusha's mouth. Failed ceiling. The seal didn't fail. Hero of Konaha. Does that mean she doesn't know Nar is that hero? What the hell is going on? She rubbed her forehead as she felt a headache coming on. She was getting too old for this [ __ ] Which reminds me, Su Chan, why isn't Naruto's name on the monument stone? She asked with cold fury burning in her emerald orbs yet again. Naruto's heart almost burst as he heard the final key to the fact that this was definitely his mother. She had explained her actions, but he still held a small bit of resentment in she hadn't returned for 18 years. Showed her age as she sighed. Kusha, who told you the ceiling failed? She asked. Kusha<unk>s eyes narrowed, but she answered, "Anbu, now answer my question, Su Chan." Her chakra spiked a bit, but the privacy seals made it so no one but the three individuals there felt its eyes narrowed at Kasha. Don't you be demanding things from me, Kasha Chan. There is much more going on than you know. It seems I must be the one to tell you. Nade sighed as she rubbed her temples again. The first thing that should be told to you is that the seal never failed. I don't know if Danzo<unk>s root were the ones that told you of Naruto's death or sensei, but either way, they are both dead, so it means little now. Sununade said with a heavy amount of tiredness in her voice. Kusha froze in her seat as possibilities ran through her mind. The only thing she could respond to that was, "What?" she said in a strangled voice. Nade turned to her with a sad look as she said, "I said that the ceiling never failed Kusha Chan." Nar has been alive all this time here in the village. Kusha's eyes were unfocused as her mind ran what had just been told to her through her mind. He's alive. She thought incredulously. He has been alive all this time. Where is he? I need to see him. What was his life like? Is he married? He must be a lady killer by now. Okami wasn't here his whole life. Her thoughts continued racing as thousands of implications came crashing down on her all at once. Watched, concerned as Kusha's face flitted from expression to expression with increasing frequency until after almost 5 minutes of silence, her face settled into pure determination. "Where is he?" she asked.ade hesitated. She could tell her about Nar, but how would Nar react? He had been fine with his father, but his mother was alive. And if this wasn't dealt with carefully, there would be dire consequences if she set Nar off. He could very well attack and kill Kusha in a fit of rage. He would regret it later, but he was quite impulsive, and even with his recent changes, she didn't think he should learn of this from Kusha unless the full explanation was given before he saw Kosa herself. With this in mind, she made her reply. I can't<unk>t allow you to see him, Jay. She was cut off as Kusha's chakra spiked dangerously. You will tell me where my son is now. Kusha roared as she glared murder at her friend. I have been absent from his life for 18 years, and I will not be absent any longer now that I have the chance to get to know him," she stated vehemently. looked at Cosino with a level head, odd that her usual temper was replaced with cold hard logic as she stared down the famous red hot-blooded habanero. But she wasn't known as the slug princess of Konaha for nothing. She barely flinched as Kusha's legendary sword appeared in her hand as she leaned on her own desk with her fingers interlocked. Kusha, you need to calm down. There is a Rizo. Was again cut off. Calm down. Calm down, Kusha said on the verge of hysterics. I abandoned my own son for 18 years because I believed lying scum and couldn't face my past for that long. She screamed. I need to see him. I need to apologize. Does he even know of me? Of his father? She asked as she talked her anger out. Wheels began turning in her head. Who in the village could be her son? Glared at Kosa. She sent a concentrated blast of ki at her which managed to get some of Kosa<unk>s attention. I have a reason I can't<unk>t let you see him yet. Sununade said stressing the yet to get Kasha's full attention as Kasha<unk>s eyes narrowed at her. Sununade began her explanation. There is much you don't know about him and I don't believe you should be the one to inform him of your life and what you have been doing. He might not listen to it all unless someone closer to him tells him about it. Kusha's head was now running in a full sprint. The way she talks is as if I should be scared of him. He should be one of the strongest shinobi in Konaha. But I know no one who is high ranked that is blonde hair and blue-eyed except that hero guy who is also a ginuriki. Her thoughts trailed off as her mouth spouted out the last of her thought. It sounds like you're afraid he might go on a rampage and kill me. like he is. Kosa<unk>s eyes widened. Of course, the hero is Narutkun. I need to find him. Sununade cursed seeing Kusha figure it out. Kusha, I am warning you. I can't<unk>t let you see him. She said vehemently, but she saw Kusha coil to spring out of her window. Sununade cursed again as she shunshineed behind Kosa and sent a chop aimed to knock her out. I'm sorry, but this is for his own good, she said. Kusha suddenly froze as her senses went haywire. One second she was feeling the attacks had sent to her neck and the next she was encompassed by that same overwhelming presence from before while simultaneously feeling attack being stopped as he appeared in front of her. His blue eyes glaring over her head as she looked straight at his chiseled chest. She barely registered how she moved slightly closer to him as he arrived. Narut glared at sununade. Now, now Ba Chan can't<unk>t have you attacking one of my precious peoples now can I? He asked cheekily though his glare said otherwise. I think Kasha San and I have much to discuss. Sununad's eyes widened. How? She started only to see Narut was preparing to leave. I was Jeriah's student. he said before both he and Kusha disappeared. A note floated on the residual wind left by his technique. It read, "Going to unseal his house." Her eyes widened, and she sat back down in her chair, wondering what was going to happen. Nar and Kusha appeared outside of a large compound. Kusha's eyes roved madly in their sockets as she tried to take in everything at once. her mind moving at a million miles a minute as she surveyed the landscape that now presented itself to her. She saw how they were in the clan district of the Konaha going from what she remembered. The street suddenly became frighteningly familied a certain bench posted right next to the door of a compound. Her eyes widened as she looked down the street and just as in her memories, there was a small park that she had loved to play in as a child. Her blood chilled as she turned her head back to the man standing next to her going through some hand seals. "Barrier," Kai, Narut said as he put his hands on the floor. The air shimmerred slightly before the compound was replaced with a cozy home nestled behind a wall with tall trees covering most of the front. Her eyes locked on the symbol emlazened on the walls door. Narudo, still having said nothing to Kusha, walked up to the door and bit his thumb, swiping his blood over the symbol, unlocking the hidden seal underneath the crest. Her eyes watered as she held further proof of this man being her son. The crest of Manado Namakazi glowed as the hidden seal was unlocked, allowing those of his or her blood within the grounds. The doors swung open as she felt her tears sting her eyes as she began to speak. And na nar kept his back to her as he said, "This is quite private." Kusha san, please refrain from talking until we are inside. He began to walk forward, pushing the gates open as his still crying mother stood shocked at his tone and the way he acknowledged her. Kusha San, she thought. Her eyes came alike as a determination not unlike Naruto's flared within her. Thoughts of her son wiping away most of her pain. I will make it up to you, Sochi Kun, she thought. Her tears dried as she used all of her considerable willpower to wrestle her thoughts from times with Manado to focus on regaining her son. She straightened her back as she followed her son onto their grounds and shut the gates behind them. Kusha watched as Nar moved silently through the mighty forest that surrounded what was supposed to be Manato's clan house, starting with Naruto's birth. They had lived in Kosa<unk>s apartment until he heard about Nar being born. He had these grounds built to accommodate his new family as he hoped it would grow. Now it was a painful reminder to what should have been, but Kusha managed to force her sadness down as she reminded herself about her son, and her determination returned full force. She expected him to lead them to the house, but he walked right past the house, heading to the backyard of the magnificent mansion Manado had constructed for his family. He had lined it with seals for only his own family so they could gain access. As such, not even Jera had been in here since Manato's death. Kusha stopped for a moment, assuming he was going the wrong way. But when he made no attempt to even stagger his stride, Kusha realized he was heading elsewhere. She quickly caught up with him as the two rounded the corner of the house to see the magnificent training grounds Manato had put into the background of the grounds. Kusha's eyes narrowed in sorrow and hurt. Nar entered a bare clearing. No trees or training dummies, no rocks or hard places, simple grass covering an expanse of field as big as the Chunin exam stadium. He reached the center and finally turned around to face his mother since the time he had figured it out at the monument stone. He glared down at her, drawing a hurt look from her, but he did not falter. Kusha shuffled under his intense scrutiny. She was determined to get him back, but she knew that she had been absent since his birth. She could do nothing if he decided to simply ignore her. "Was everything you told Ba Chan true?" he asked in a dead cold voice. Kusha<unk>'s eyes snapped to him. You heard all that. How I know those seals are impenetrable, she said. Naruto's eyes narrowed. How I bypassed them is none of your concern. Or would you rather talk about seals instead of why you abandoned me at birth? He asked in cold fury. Kusha flinched back. You have no right to be questioning me. Answer my questions and we will see if I will talk more with you. Narut stated in the same tone he had initially spoken to her, cold, emotionless. Kusha's eyes burst into life at that. He isn't totally adverse to me. I still have a chance. She stared directly into his eyes as she said, "Yes, everything I said is true." Naruto's cold blue eyes stared into Kusha's rockhard emerald orbs. A contest of wills battling it out as the two tried to impose their own wishes onto the other. The air grew heavy with tension, and both Shinobi tensed as their bodies reacted to the obvious battle. Neither moved after their initial tightening of muscles, each daring the other to make the first move. Kusha was prepared to fight for her right to know her son. The tension suddenly disappeared as Mirthth entered Naruto's eyes. It is a pleasure to finally meet my birth mother, he said while his visible eyes clenched slightly, signifying his mouth smiling underneath his face mask. I was told I got my attitude from you and from what I have seen, I must say that appears true, he said in a noticeably happier voice. Kusha relaxed as the first true smile of over 18 years cracked her face in half as she said. So Naruto's eyes lost their mirth. Do not call me your son, he said in a cold voice again. Kusha frowned. You may have given birth to me, but I have no parents. His voice carried his anger as he said he had no parents. Kusha looked stunned. W what? She asked. You just called me your mother. She accused. Nar shook his head. No, I called you my birth mother. He responded. You can't not have parents. though. Kusha was interrupted with a burst of ki, leaving her stunned at the intensity of it. I was raised in an orphanage from the time I was born to the time I was eight. After that, I took care of myself until legally becoming an adult in the village and even took care of myself another full year before leaving on my training trip. I was raised by no one. I was given birthday presents by one person who was a grandfather to me. I was taught to read, write, and use the bathroom by myself. I had no one to tuck me in after a long day of work. I was not congratulated while doing something good by anyone. Parents raise their kids and teach them to do all of the stuff I have taught myself how to do, all without help. His voice full of rage as he continued talking. I was not raised by you and I will not have you trying to claim something you are not. Kusha's face showed the tremendous hurt she felt as he said this. Her heart clenched painfully in her chest as she acknowledged that everything he said was completely true. "So you would have nothing to do with me?" she asked steadily. Naruto's glare was replaced with a sad look. "No," he said, causing Kusha<unk>s eyes to harden in determination. "Not if you wish to be my mother." He finished drawing a surprised look from Kusha. How else would you wish to have a relationship with me? She asked with curiousness in her voice. Friendship? He replied readily. Kusheena<unk>s curious look was replaced with another frown. However much you may try to deny it, I am your mother. So again, she was cut off. I acknowledged what you were. Stop trying to call me son. You have not earned that. Perhaps in time I may see you as that, but I doubt it. The time for formative figures in my life is over. I am an adult in more ways than just legally. There is no place for a mother within my life now that I am at this stage. Think long and hard. Kasha San, do you wish to continue to alienate me because you wish to try to force yourself on me? His voice hard and piercing straight to her heart or his voice softening as he looked at her with almost a pleading stare. Would you rather start off as friends, build a relationship that may lead to what we should have had, bar lying bastards, or one that at least allows you interaction with the only living relative you have and by extension my own?" he asked. Kusha's eyes turned downward as she grew introspective. "What he is saying is totally absurd. One moment he is saying I am his mother." The next he says he doesn't have any parents. What the hell happened to him? However, what he is suggesting is quite mature. It makes me proud to see him so strong and so wise. Even if his logic does seem screwed up, the way he explains our relationship would be accurate. He has every right to ignore me for what I have done. Granted, it wasn't totally my fault. I was still a coward, but the question is, can I treat him just like a friend and not be a mother? I know I was always a bit of a tomboy, but my instincts just scream at me to baby him, even though he is like this. I could try, though. It makes the most sense, even if it pains me to acknowledge it, she thought to herself. She slowly looked up with sadness in her eyes as she said, "Very well, Naron." She smiled hesitantly at the familiar honorific she put behind his name. Naruto's eyes creded slightly as he said, "Arugato, Kusha, Chan." He chuckled slightly at the dumbfounded look on her face. Kusha<unk>s hand pointed out at Nar as it shook slightly. She said, "You can't<unk>t call me that," she said. Naruto's eyes cringed even more as his smile widened. "Why not, Kosa Chan?" he added to tease her. Because because I'm your mother, Kusha finished in her head, coming up with no other explanation than that. She huffed as she refused to break her attempts at just being his friend. Nar chuckled. Why do you wear that mask, Narokun? She asked, making her transition in what to call him readily enough. Her curiosity had hidden her full force when she realized what had happened. Nar cringed away. Uh, there is a real long story behind it, but basically he trailed off while scratching the back of his head. He sighed and reached up to his mask, pulling it away from his face. His face turned sheepish as Kusha did exactly what every other woman did when seeing his face. "Kai," Kusha said breathlessly as she saw his whisker marks combined with his angular face and strong jawline produced quite the effect on the ladies when he had finally matured. He kept it hidden to reduce the amount of fangirls he would have. That is the reason my face is usually hidden, he said as he chuckled, allowing his slightly elongated canines to peek out from under his lip. It also leads to women not hounding me for dates just because of my looks. Dates. Kusha growled. Her instincts already kicking in. Naruto's grin almost vanished, but he was pretty understanding and decided to tease her. Despite him acknowledging her as his birth mother, he had no qualms in seeing her as she is. One hotass able piece of woman that any man, including himself, would happily die for a chance at being in a relationship with. He was quite shameless in admitting it to himself, though he would probably never say that out loud. He didn't feel admitting it to himself would hurt him as he would never make a move on her anyways. Does Kusha Chan not like the idea of me being on a date? He asked teasingly. Does she want me all for herself? He asked with a foxy grin on his face. Kusha's face scrunched up into a frown and slightly disgusted look until she saw Naruto's million watt grin. Her eyes narrowed as she saw his shoulders shaking. He wants to play that way, huh? She thought to herself. Let it be known, Kusha was known as the prankster queen of hell in her youth. I ain't saying no, she said as she turned around with a evil grin on her face before shun shining to her apartment to take it over from Nar. Naruto's jaw dropped as he heard his newest friend's confession. His mind turning and churning as her statement replayed in his mind. He felt his clone from his apartment being dispelled as he had said another one after Kusha left. He sighed as he heard her declaration. My apartment sleep in that house for now. She told his clone before dispelling it. His mind still trying to digest what she had said. Nar trudged to his new home. Unknown to the both of them, this would lead to what no one would ever expect in their undying happiness. Naruto groaned as he rolled around in a soft and fluffy bed. Soft and fluffy. He thought, "This isn't my apartment." His discovery left him confused for a moment as he unnoticeably stretched his body while still lying on the very soft bed. His mind finally settled as he realized what had happened yesterday. He rolled over and allowed a few tears to escape his eyes as he grieved one last time for the loss of something he had thought he put behind him, his parents. He knew that he would never see Kasha as she wanted him to. He had been honest when he said that there was no room for someone to just try to put their own will upon his own, which was what parents do. They imposed their own decisions on their children to lead them in the correct way. For example, they would show how it was indecent to show one's food while eating. They would explain how men and women love each other, the areas where one could be intimate and what to keep behind closed doors. Basically showing their children right from wrong. For any kid out there reading this, and there shouldn't be any of you since this is an M-rated FIC, I want to make this clear. Listen to your parents. Many time they will know better than you. You will think they don't know what they are talking about, but they do. They have lived longer than you have. I know you hear this all the time, but just do it. Trust me, it makes your life a whole lot easier. Nar had learned all of this on his own or through the slums where he lived as a kid. No one had taught them. He had learned the hard way with no one to correct him if he did something wrong until he did it in public. Many times he would be led to believe a certain action was okay just to be told by others that it wasn't. His hands clenched as he thought of the trouble he would get into just because he had no one to teach him. He took a deep breath and let loose a shuddering sigh as his body relaxed and he allowed his indignation to be washed away. "Today is a new day. No thinking about the past. Let's<unk> get to know each other," he said to himself as he nestled into the bed a bit further. "But first, five more minutes." He smiled as his eyes closed and he snuggled into his newer, fluffier bed. Not a chance in hell. Get your out of bed. A female voice snapped only for Nar to feel himself thrown out of his comfortable bed. "Hey," he shouted indignantly as he stood from the floor, showing his chiseled chest as he only slept in some pants, preferring to sleep almost. His eyes immediately landed on Kusha. He had to fight the massive blush that threatened to rush to his face. He had seen his mother's face, but her body had constantly been covered by her cloak. She was dressed almost as if she wanted people to look at her. Her hair was pulled into a ponytail behind her, giving her a younger look, even though her face didn't show it. She was almost 38. I'm going on the assumption she was giving birth to Nar at 20 since I can't find an actual age that Kusha died. Assunade had said, she didn't look a day over 20 with unblenmished skin and her silky red hair hanging down to her back. This, however, was not what caught Naruto's attention. Kusha was wearing a skintight shirt and trousers, both black with the Uzumaki swirls on her shoulders. Her pants had dark orange stripes running down the sides of them. On her feet were standard shinobi sandals. Her hands had fingerless black leather gloves finishing off her ensemble. Even all of this was not enough to grab Naruto's attention like the curves his newest friend exhibited. His eyes rode her body from top to body heedless of the fact he knew she was his birth mother. Her DD cups pushing against her skintight shirt bounced with even the slightest movement she made, showing their firmness as they followed her every move. Despite her age, his eyes traveled down to her tone stomach, which peaked out under her shirt before continuing on where her pants covered her slim waist until it widened back out to her firm backside. This was all attached to legs that seemingly went on forever, giving Kusha the perfect hourglass figure which any woman would strive for. It was obvious she kept in shape. Kusha herself was struck at Naruto's bare chest. Though she knew that he was her son, she couldn't help that little voice in her head that told her she had given birth to one of the hottest men on the planet. His chest rippled with energy as he breathed. Each perfectly sculpted muscle moving in unison, showing how well he kept in shape. She had seen Manado's chest and many men's besides his, but Naruto's just beat them all. His six-pack standing out on his stomach leading down to the pants he had on. She noticed only one problem with his perfect chest, a scar about the size of a fist over his right lung. Her eyes roved hungrily until she snapped at herself. Stop it. He is your Sochi. And a tiny voice couldn't help but snap back. He doesn't see it that way. Her eyes snapped to his face as she heard this in her slight blush went to a neon red as she realized he was checking her out. She grinned slightly as she pushed her blush down and moved her chest so it swayed back and forth, loving how his eyes were glued to it once she started moving. Though she knew it was wrong, she couldn't help but tease him. "Pervert," she finally said as she stopped moving and waited for his eyes to snap to hers. Nar flushed a heavy red, but he didn't sputter as he stared straight at Kusha. "Yeah," he answered nonchalantly. But what did you expect with my teachers? He stated, grinning internally as he knew his teachers were about to get the beating of a lifetime. Kusha<unk>s eyes narrowed. Who were your teachers? She asked. Nar smiled mischievously. Now, now I think if we talk here, we won't have anything to talk about the rest of the day. He said as he smiled a little wider at her. Kusha looked a bit confused at the sudden change of topic. Hm. She said. Naruto crossed his arms over his chest as he said, "I think we will go grab some lunch since it seems so late." "Then I am going to take you to go shopping as my friend is not walking around looking like a billboard for everyone to be ogling her," he said as he waved at her outfit. "Then I have a get together with my friends tonight and I would like to introduce you to them," he said with a cheeky grin on his face again. Kusha frowned. She hated shopping, but looking down, she didn't want anyone ogling her. She always wore a cloak since she left Konaha and would just beat any pervert stupid enough to make a move on her. Though she was rather comfortable with Nar, though that may be because she didn't see him as a potential lover, she couldn't see herself comfortable in front of anyone else like this. So, she nodded on one condition, she said. Nar looked at her suspiciously and nodded. "We get ramen for lunch and you're paying," she said with a cheeky grin. Naruto's laugh was loud as he held his sides. Kusha looked confused until Nar said, "I definitely inherited your appetite." "Ichu's for lunch, then. Let me get dressed. Unless you'd like to continue ravishing my body with your eyes, Kusha Chan," he stated with his cheeky grin back in place. He had no problem with her looking at him like that. He knew others did it and he wasn't bothered by them. Why should he be bothered by her? Kusha, to her credit, didn't blush as she turned back around and proceeded out of the room. Perve, she said. Nar chuckled as he started to get ready for his day out. Kusha and Nar walked down the streets of Konaha drawing the stairs of men and women alike. Both rubbed their bellies in a contented fashion as they proceeded to the first shop of the day. Nar sighed happily as he let his half-litted gaze pan around his surroundings. Though he looked like he was offg guard, his sensor abilities were constantly active. He wasn't surprised to feel the ambu black ops top team was following them around. He smiled slightly, letting his amusement show through asunade was worried about him. He silently shook his head slightly at the direction of the captain who was Nei from what Nar could feel. Kusha suddenly spoke up. "She is really worried, isn't she?" she said. Nar turned to his mother and kept his half-litted gaze. Wouldn't you? The ginuriki of the Caillobi no kitsune, which thrives on negative feelings, is walking around with his absent mother of 18 years. He responded, not letting anyone but her hear him. Her content face was replaced with a frown as she looked downwards. "I'm sorry," she said. Nar shook his head. "Sorry, I ruined the mood. I don't hold any bad feelings. Let's<unk> just forget it, please." He asked with a slight puppy dog pout. Kusha giggled, but it had little effect as she replied under her breath. "How can you just forget that though?" she asked with hesitancy in her voice. Nar looked at her with piercing blue eyes as he responded in the same soft voice so they couldn't be overheard. Simple. I forgive it. It does no good to keep a grudge against you. He admitted to Kusha's surprise. Besides, I would like to get to know my only relative, even if we should be closer than we ever get, he said with some sadness. Kusha nodded and smiled slightly as Narut. Thank you, she said. Naruto simply nodded and the two turned and restarted their trek through Konaha. They had been walking in a comfortable silence for almost 5 minutes before Kusha suddenly asked, "So, can I start asking questions now?" Nar looked at her and after a few seconds said, "I won't<unk>t answer everything. There are some things in my past that no one should know about. If it doesn't infringe on that, I will answer anything you ask, he said with steel in his voice. Kusha frowned. Was your life really that bad? She asked quietly. Naruto's answer was just the barest of whispers. Yes. Kusha again looked down and a tense silence fell for another 5 minutes as they continued wandering aimlessly through the village. Narut knew where he wanted to go to get his newest friend's clothes, but he was content to let her ask questions before starting the shopping. He decided to jumpst start her slowly. I had very little during my childhood. It was a bleak and very lonely time for me. I really only had the sandame Tuki and a Yame Chan for friends or people of importance. I lived in the orphanage until I was 8 years old and then I was given your old apartment as I went to the academy. As you can imagine, the teachers weren't too happy with me, so I began pranking to keep attention on myself. I have to say, my pranks were complete genius. He stated with a chuckle as Kusha finally looked up at him. One time, I painted the whole Hokag monument in plain daylight. I led the Anbu on a chase for hours before they finally caught me. His smile was white, even if Kusha could only tell because of his eyes, as his face mask was back on. I failed the academy two times before finally passing on the third time when Mizuki, one of my teachers, managed to trick me into stealing the forbidden scroll. And I learned the cage bunch in two hours. I found out about my burden and Aruka sensei's true feelings about me. I was so happy when he passed me, I couldn't stop myself, and I managed to prank the Hyuga compound. He chuckled again, and his smile widened as he saw Kosa stifle a giggle. Kusha took over. So, who were your sensei? She asked. Righteous woman fury burning in her emerald orbs. Narut chuckled as he responded. Kakashi and Aro Sennin, he said, drawing a giggle from Kusha. Manato called him that too, she said with a small smile. Naruto's smile never wavered as he began telling her of his stories and what had happened from the D-rank missions up until he met Haku and Zabuza. gaining his true Nindo. He continued on explaining the tunin exams and what had happened between his fights. He enjoyed the murderous expression she held when he mentioned Orochimaru had almost killed him. He continued on explaining his meeting with Itachi and Kisame and eventually reached how he beats Sununade's bed and almost killed Kabuto, ending when they came back to Konaha. He didn't want to tell about Sasuke's retireal mission just yet, and the time was getting late as they had been sitting in a park they had found while they were walking around. "I think we need to get you something for tonight," he said as he stood and put his hand out to her. She smiled slightly and took his hand, allowing him to pull her up and standing right next to him. He smirked as she put a hand on his chest to steady herself. She blushed slightly and stepped back as he simply turned away to hide his own small blush to lead her to the shop. Nar and Kusha had been looking around the store for something for Kusha when Kusha suddenly disappeared behind a changing room curtain while telling Nar, "I<unk>ll be out in a minute. I want to see your full reaction to this." Nar had rubbed his head in confusion. What did she expect him to do with this supposed outfit? Even if she was drop deadad gorgeous without needing it to be enhanced by any type of dress, he couldn't exactly tell her that is she wasn't like him. Still believing that he was her. So Chiun, he could tell she still thought that as even though she had been acting friendly, she was rather overprotective about certain things when he was talking. It was beginning to annoy him. He sighed as he rubbed his head. This way of being friends with her wasn't working out exactly like he had planned. He would need to either push her away or simply find some way of stopping this attraction he was growing to her. He had a few girlfriends before, but no one could even compare to his mother in the beauty department. When he had first saw her, he had an unnatural urge to ask the lady out on the spot, even noticing she was an intruder. Now that he found out she was his mother, he was trying to stop his feelings going beyond friendship, but his mind wouldn't stop their thoughts. It didn't help the few times Kaobi would break through his mental barriers. All he was screaming about was plowing his mom like no tomorrow. He looked up as he heard the curtain being pushed aside and his mind temporarily decided it would be better if it didn't function. His mouth dropped and his eyes bugged out of his head as he stared into perfection. Kusha had pulled her hair up into a slightly messy bun that had crimson locks framing her creamy face. She had chosen a long dress that was held up with two shoulder pads that rested right on her shoulders to leave the creamy white skin of her neck and shoulders bare to the air. Her skin was further exposed as the dress cuped her s, leaving some of her s exposed, clearly accentuating her larger than normal bust size. The dress fell straight down from her stomach past her legs and stopped just short of the high heels she had equipped. The color was a red that was a few shades lighter to her hair, accentuating her natural beauty perfectly. He noticed that the sides of the dress were slitted, so when she walked, you would get glimpses of her creamy white thighs. "All in all, perfection," Kusha wondered if she had broken her Sochi when a word escaped his lips that had her giggling. "Megami," he whispered, equating her beauty to a goddess. "She was pleased, though she really shouldn't tease him. He was so fun to do, so it was hard not to. Besides, she was still one smoking hot woman, and she would be damned if these women Nar had informed her about would beat her in beauty. Even if she wasn't competing for someone's attention, it was nice to know he liked her appearance. She walked forward and put her finger under his lip, closing his mouth as she giggled. "Thanks," she said. Nar snapped out of his stuper and grinned sheepishly. I might have to beat the guys off you with a stick tonight. Kusha Chan. Kusha grinned devilishly. With that, they were set for the night. Nar paid for the dress, and after he went home and changed, the two headed to the club to meet the rookie 12. Kusha hooked her arm into Naruto's as they walked. Nar turned a questioning gaze to her, and she simply said, "You're escorting a lady. You should always try to keep her close, Narun." She smiled up at him. Nar shook his head and further gripped her with his arm, drawing her in closer. Kusha blushed, but the two continued oblivious to the glares of the men and women lining the road angry at them. The men for Nar bagging a greatl looking woman. The women at Kusha for taking Konaha's number one bachelor. Nar walked up with Kusha still linked to his arm and smiled at the bouncer for the club dragon. Evening Jin, how's the crowd tonight? He asked. The bouncer turned to him and smiled brightly. Great Nar. His eyes settled on Kusha. Oh ho. Finally decided to get a girlfriend. Eh, he said with a suggestive wink. She looks like a keeper. Nar, don't you let any of your friends try to steal this one. Okay. He smiled at the two as he let them into the club. As they passed, Narut whispered so only Kusha and Jyn could hear him. You know those two didn't actually love me. Don't tease me like that. Jyn though Kusha Chan here is a keeper. Of that I promise you. He smiled as he passed Jyn. Kusha blushed and could only smile at Jyn's even brighter smile as she disappeared into the club. Kusha leaned into Narut as the crowd pressed on them. "What was he talking about?" she asked as she almost yelled in his ear. Nar turned to her slightly as he continued walking that the crowd, "These two ninjas who thought they loved me, but it was just a crush. I introduced them to some friends of mine, and they eventually cheated on me with my friends," he said. Kusha almost growled. Nar smiled. "It didn't hurt. I only went out with them because they wouldn't leave me alone. I introduced them to their perfect matches and when they left me, it was no hard feelings as I knew it was coming, he said nonchalantly, leading to Kusha to stare at him gobsmacked. He chuckled slightly, closing her mouth, much like she closed his earlier. By this time, the two had reached a quieter part of the club, and Narut spotted the almost full table of the Konaha 12 with the sand trio and their dates. He smiled as he led Kusha toward them with a steady hand. He arrived and looked around the table as he introduced himself. You guys will never guess what happened the other day, he said exuberantly. Around the table, people were seated with their dates. Shikamaru sat with Tamari on his left. To their left was Eno and Choji. They had gotten together after Nar killed Ma. Eno finally admitting her long-held feelings for the big boned and now muscled Akamichi. That's Shikamaru and Tamari. On their left is Eno and Choji. Nar began pointing out his friends as they all stared at the beauty next to him. Next to them sat Sakura and Lee. Once Nar had brought back Sasake, Sakura had tried to make a relationship with him. Even after confessing to Nar, but it hadn't worked out, and Nar would have nothing to do with her beyond friendship afterwards. Lee had accepted her after she truly repented, though Nar didn't fully believe her. Next to them was Gar with his fianceé Matsuri. Narut smiled as his fellow demon container finally found the love he deserved. "That there is Lee and Sakura." Kusha frowned, which everyone took notice of. Gar and his fianceé Matsuri, he said, which prompted a very bright smile at Gar, leaving Gar to wonder why. Then there were two open seats, obviously for Narut and someone if he brought a date. Next to those seats were Hinata and Shino. That was an interesting pair. After Nar had defeated Matera, he came back and told Hinata he liked her but didn't love her as he didn't know her. Before he could ask her out to a date to get to know her better, she had fled and Narut hadn't seen her again until she was wrapped onto Shino's arm like a scarf. He had congratulated them and told Shino he would have to keep Hinata safe. Shino<unk>s response had been to let loose his bugs to show Nar he would fight Nar himself for her. Nar had smiled, bowed, and never bothered them again. They were great friends, though. Next to them were Ka and Shazun, an odd combination to say the least. Nar had almost castrated Ka when he found out his Nchan was pregnant with his first litter. Though Shizun had said they planned it and Narut calm down after threatening him in the same manner as Shino, Ka had earned Naruto's respect to keep Shazun safe. She was three months pregnant. Then there is Hinata and Shino. Next to them is Ka and Shun whom I think you remember from Ba Chan. He said Nei and Tentin sat next to them. The two had been going out since Nar returned from his training trip and were planning their marriage. A few months ago, the Hyuga Council tried to marry Nei off to another Hyuga. Tentin had been so distraught that she had run from Neji when she found out and stumbled across Narut training. After coaxing the story from her, Narut had marched to the Hyuga Council and blown the doors down, his old loud personality coming back from his younger days as he protected his friend's happiness. He had threatened the Hyuga Council with fighting him in order to force Neji to leave Tenton. The council had tried to outmaneuver Narut in politics, but he simply said, "I don't care. If you force this marriage on Neji, I will kill you. Now you have two days to tell Neji he is engaged to Tenton Higurashi or you will find Gamabunta sitting on your manor." He had left the council with pasty faces. Not even 5 hours later, Tenton had rushed to Naruto's apartment and shown him the huge ring Nei got her. He had smiled and said, "Good for you." She had kissed him on the cheek and whispered, "Thank you." before running back to Neji and they had disappeared for the next 3 days. Then Nei and Tenton, "You remember them from today's trip?" He said, "Konkuro was dating some highlevel Kunoichi from Suna for the betterment of the Case Cages bloodline." finally was Sasake. He had reformed slightly. Though he was still arrogant, he was at least tolerable. He was only led back in on Naruto's behalf whensunade said he was looking to leave again. His newfound somewhat friendship with the rookie 12 had led to him staying, and he now had four children with his two wives, Karen and Tuya, who had both shown up a few weeks after Sasake had returned. Both of his wives were sitting next to him. Then Conquerro, Sasake, Karen, and Tuya. He finished with his introductions. Sakuro was the first to find her voice, jealousy tinting her voice. Though she didn't really love Nar, she still held feelings for the blonde enigma. Nar, who is that? She asked as the rest of the table all nodded their heads. Nar smiled. This he said as he pushed Kusha forward is my long lost cousin Kusha Uzuaki. He said with a flourish of his hand. Kusha turned a questioning gaze to him as he presented her cousin. She asked what? You look too young to be my mother. Besides, I don't want them grilling you about your past just yet. He responded quietly so only she could hear. Kusha nodded and turned back around giving them a slight bow. It is a pleasure to meet you," she said. Everyone but Shazun seemed to respond. Nar and Kasha sat down with Nar pulling the chair out for her and her smiling coily at him, something none of them missed. He sat down and looked at his friends. "What are you all staring at?" he asked with laughter in his voice as he knew they were entranced with Kusha. "When did you meet her, Nar?" Shikamaru asked. yesterday. He replied nonchalantly. She came to Konaha once she heard my name and saw Ba Chan. I spent the whole day with her today. Turns out she is actually a cousin of mine, he said. Hinata spoke up. Then you must know who his parents are. Kusha san. Kusha shuffled in her seat as Narut rubbed his head sheepishly. I already know who my parents are. Guys, I just haven't told you cause it isn't time. Don't worry, it will be out soon. The table nodded and the conversations broke into smaller parts. Suzun still stared at Kasha as if she saw someone rise from the grave. Ka was starting to get worried. Where have you been, Kasha San? Gar asked in an impassive tone, curious about a relation to his surrogate brother. Around the world, Gar or should I say Kage Sama, she said with mirth twinkling in her eyes. Gar simply closed his eyes. Nar chuckled. I think you embarrassed him, he said. Not as embarrassed as I can make you. She responded, her normal exuberance coming to the surface as she was finally not the center of attention. Uncount to her, everyone was still listening into their conversation as almost all talking stopped when Naruto's eyes gained the same mirthful look hers did. All of them cringed as they saw that spark in their youth before Narut played a prank on someone. "Try me," he said. "What's your favorite position?" she asked. Narut blushed but didn't miss a beat. After last night, you have to ask. He responded. Kusha's blush was glowing as Hinata, Eno, and Tamari all held blushes. Shazun was still staring somehow, and Sakura looked disgusted. The clans would breed cousins, so they understood that and accepted it as ninja life. If Nar did have with his cousin, then it wasn't really too abnormal. However, with the way they were talking, it was doubtful. Besides, Nar didn't take someone to bed the first night he met them. "Well, I was doing most of the work. I couldn't tell what you liked best, as you were a bit too quick," she said. Naruto's face glowed in anger. Not going by the screams I heard. You were clenching so tight it was hard to hold on. He responded. Manhor, she replied. Mark, he said. Both of them glared as the table stared at them like they were nuts. Suddenly, they both bust out laughing. Oh, O Cammy, that was beautiful. Nar said as he wiped a tear from his eye. I haven't had fun like that in a long while. Narut [ __ ] Kusha said. Naruto [ __ ] is it? Eno said with a suggestive wriggle of an eyebrow. Kusha Chan can call me anything she likes just as I can do the same. Isn't that right, Cushi Chan? He said as he rubbed his nose into her cheek, making her smirk as he continued their little game of teasing each other. Sakura suddenly slammed her fist down on the table. That's disgusting. Stop that, she said as she glared at the two. The whole table turned to her, even Shazun as they all popped question marks above their heads. What's disgusting? Shino asked with curiosity. Being around Hinata had led to him losing some of his impassivity. He would occasionally show emotion now that Sakura said feel point at Nar and Kusha cuddling. Nar turned his head behind him. What? I don't see anything. he said. The table sweat dropped as Narut smirked where only Kusha could see it. "You," Sakura said as her old screeching voice came back from her younger years. "You're making it sound like you, Ed, or something. Your cousin's disgusting," she said.
