A young blonde boy sat on a rock, thinking about how he wished that he could change his appearance. His parents would never allow it since they were proud that their son was the next to be in line to the throne. But he wanted to do something different like his grandparents had. Both his great-great grandfather and great-grandmother had been chosen just as he had to be the next monarch of the Konoha no ōkoku. Unlike them though, he wanted to be able to go and explore the human world than be tied to the one place. The boy's grandfather had made an alliance with a human; he would protect them and strengthen those who were within the group of the human's choosing. The only condition that the boy's grandfather had was that the members of the group treated each other as a family and would do what they believed to be right. Each person who were apart of the group would then have the symbol of a fairy placed on their flesh in a place of their choosing, allowing the protection of a fairy to extend upon them.
The boy was shaken out of his musings when the son of the current advisor landed beside him. "Hey Shikamaru, what brings you by here?"
"Trying to escape from life. It can be such a drag inside that place." Shikamaru was already lying down next to the heir. "That and they sent me to find you."
Naruto stared the person who he wanted as his advisor. "Sometimes I wonder if I should rethink my advisor choice. It seems the fae for the job is somewhere else at the moment."
Shikamaru looked at the soon to be new monarch, wondering just how well he would cope with having to stay confined within the Konoha monarch's tower. "You're right. I think he's somewhere looking for the both of us now."

"Shikamaru?" Naruto waited a second before continuing, knowing that he had the attention of the boy lying next to him. "Why do you think it is that only the monarchs grow tails?"
The boy sighed, not really sure how to answer the question. "You mean in the same way that they lose their wings?"
Naruto bowed his head. "Exactly."
"The only reason that seems plausible at the moment is that since you become stronger and are then able to control an element, that you no longer need the wings. But the tail eludes me." Shikamaru sighed, deciding to look into this further once he got back to the kingdom's library.
"Well, since I still have yet to grow my tail, and have already lost my wings…" Naruto started as he helped Shikamaru up. "Would you mind walking back with me?"
Shikamaru nodded as he started the trek back to the monarch's tower with Naruto. On the way they continued to talk about what could be the cause of the monarch gaining a tail but losing their wings.
"Ooh what if the dragons were connected to it?"
"Naruto, do you really think that is plausible?" Shikamaru asked, looking at the monarch tower which had just come into view.
"It could be!" Naruto defended himself, knowing that he would probably lose this battle. "Besides, isn't it something that we're going to look further into?"
The soon to be advisor nodded, figuring that the blonde would only stop this conversation while he was ahead. They lapsed into silence until they reached the gate to the tower. The current advisor Shikaku stood there, arms crossed as he looked at his son and the next monarch.
"Well it's about time the two of you showed up. The place has been in an up roar since you disappeared." Shikaku looked at Naruto while speaking, before turning to the one he had sent to find him. "And it got worse when you left, since you were supposed to bring him back quickly. Now there are some rumours to go settle."

Both boys followed behind the advisor as he walked back to the current monarch. Naruto wondering how much trouble he was going to get Shikamaru into with this. Shikamaru was still thinking about researching the monarch's tail. Both trains of thought were stopped when they had reached the door leading into the private meeting room of Tsunade Senju. "And just what took the two of you so long to get back here. Members of the council started talking."
"I needed a break, and wanted to walk back, instead of having Shikamaru fly me back." Naruto took a seat in the chair opposite the current monarch. Shikamaru and Shikaku went to stand beside Naruto and Tsunade respectively. "I was also wondering about when I will be overlooking the kingdom."
Tsunade waited to hear what Naruto needed to say next, curious as to what may be troubling the young boy, as she was pretty sure that between her and the council, they would have been able to explain everything clearly to him that would be required when he came into power.
"Would it be possible for my advisor and I to move away from the monarch tower? Since it is only a point where the members of our kingdom come to see us if they have problems and can gain our help."
Shikamaru was silently wishing that Naruto would have talked to him about this earlier before they had gotten in to see Tsunade. Shikaku looked over his son and the soon to be monarch, thinking about the implications of having a monarch moving somewhere else. "And if you were to move, where would you be going? What would you be able to do there that you were not able to do here?"
"I would be able to help the humans more than what we can here. And the place where I would go would be to Magnolia." Naruto turned to address Tsunade again. "And my advisor would come with me for the sole purpose that he would be better suited than anyone else who may be sent along."
Tsunade sighed, the only reason that she could think of not to allow this to happen was that the people would not know where to go. She knew the reason that Naruto wanted to go to Magnolia was so that he could help the human guild that his grandfather had, and that if he joined he would be going all over the place on jobs to help.

The more she started thinking about this the more she could see the benefit of it. He would be able to go to help the people and create better relations with the other ruling monarchs. The current ruling monarch looked to Shikamaru next. "Would you be alright with this? Moving to Magnolia with Naruto, and no doubt accompanying him on jobs that he will wish to do once joining the mage guild there?"
Shikamaru looked at his father and Naruto before slowly nodding. Babysitting the next monarch was going to be troubling, he knew that, if anything his father and Shizune had told him about their jobs with looking after Tsunade were anything to go by. Besides, he knew that Naruto didn't trust many people easily, even though he was outgoing and pretty much a fool once you really knew him. "My conditions are that the paperwork that Naruto will need to fill out, be sent to the guild that we join so that he may sign off on them, before going to the archives. The other is that should get to visit my mother at least four times in the month, so that she does not worry. Naruto will accompany me during these times so that I know he is keeping up with the paperwork and that he is safe, until I can find a suitable person at the guild to do so as well."
Tsunade smirked at this, knowing how much Naruto didn't like the paperwork already, and how much worse it was going to get from here on in. "This motion shall be passed, but you will be required to visit me at least twice a month to update on your progress."
Naruto jumped up with a huge smile splitting his face. "Thank you so much Granny Tsunade!"


I can't guarantee the paragraphing, but I hope this is better than before. So let me know what you think :)
