Oh and:
DISCLAIMER: To bad I'm not married to Masashi Kishimoto. For that reason, I do not own Naruto, or any of the Naruto characters (to bad, would love to own Sasuke or Neji).
oOoOoOoOoOo
The sun was getting up in Konoha. It was pretty cold indeed, for it was winter. The trees looked sad without its leaves. Most people tried to give themselves warmth with the gloves and coats they had. Many stayed inside. Unfortunately, for some citizens in Konoha, life continued the way it always did. Missions were still requested, day by day, even in the cold winter breeze. And some, aren't quite happy with that…
"What! Why do I have to go the fcking Suna just to deliver a scroll?! Can't some bird do that or something?! It's freezing out here!" Kakashi looked away, seemingly annoyed and the blond big-breasted woman sighed. "Geez.. I really can't help it, but that scroll has to be in the Suna in four days, and I don't want to wait for the spring to arrive. It really pains me to say this to you, kid, but you have to go through the cold weather". She smirked.
"Whaaaat!! You don't feel sorry at all, you old wi-" BAMM.
The blond guy fell five meters back. "SHUT UP NARUTO! – Oh, I'm really sorry, Tsunade-sama. He just doesn't seem to learn it," the pink kunoichi said. She bowed and looked a little afraid at her master, but relaxed when she saw the woman was smiling. "It's okay, Sakura. I know the idiot. Although I didn't think he would back off from a little cold weather". She smirked when she saw the boy stand up to yell again. To her amazement, he didn't. He looked at her, with his oh so famous determined face.
"Ah, so that's the case. I get it. Alright! I won't back off even if my toes freeze to death! I will get that scroll to the Suna, in three days. And… I'll never go back on my words! For I'm going to be Hokage!" he smirked and looked at the Fifth. At first, her eyes widened, but then she laughed. "Good for you, little brat. I'll expect you back at the office within six days. Now go!" she exclaimed. They were about to run away, when Tsunade suddenly remembered something. "Oh, Naruto, wait. When you're in the Suna, go find team eight. They should be ready from their mission as well. You could come back together." "Understood, Tsunade-obaa-chan!" With that, he ran away, planning to pack his stuff.
At the door of his house, Naruto grabbed the key and opened the door. In his room (which was a huge mess from all the ramen-cups that were laying on the floor) he grabbed his bag and filled it with food, shuriken and other stuff. When he was done, he cleaned his room in full speed and walked to the door. Giving it one last glance, he walked to the Konoha gates, from where he and his teammates would go to the Suna.
At the same time, at some other place
"K-Kiba-kun.. we really should get going now. Foreign ninjas are o-on their w-way to our place.. and t-they seem p-pretty strong," a navy-haired girl said. She looked at her friend and teammate and saw him getting up from his spot. "You know, we could knock them all out, right? I mean, Akamaru and I have this cool new move we want to show you. With this move, they'll be out in a minute, right Akamaru!" The big white dog barked. Kiba jumped on his four-feet friend and looked around. "Oi, Hinata, where's Shino anyway? I haven't seen him yet, nor I can smell his stupid bugs." Hinata thought for a moment, when she recalled what Shino had said to her in the early morning: "Hinata, I must go to some place, not too far from here. I know it's sudden, but there's some business I have there. I'll put this female bug on you, so that I can find you anywhere you are.
Don't forget to tell Kiba."
"H-he had some business somewhere else, but he'll be b-back before noon. S-so we should get going now, before the n-ninjas get this way." She looked afraid. Kiba noticed and went from 'wild' to soft. He was like this a lot when he was with his female teammate. "Well, I guess you're right. We didn't come here to pick a fight." He looked at the little baby which was lying in a basket with a blanket. "After all, we got what we came for!" "Y-yes, that's right. I.. I'm really happy we f-found the prince. I mean, it was sad for his p-parents that he was kidnapped. And I think he's really c-cute." Hinata said, with a blush. Kiba looked at her, and smiled. "You really like children, don't ya, Hinata?" She nodded. "Well, I'm sure you'll be a real good mom when you get children yourself. And a good wife too! Which reminds me, Hinata, have you already confessed to Naruto?" Hinata looked up, shocked, and got a huge blush on her face. "W-w-well.. a-actually, not really." Kiba sighed. "B-But I tried to! R-really… But he's just so busy all the time.. And when he doesn't have a mission, I h-have.." Kiba looked with pity to his teammate. He didn't want to admit it, but felt a little jealous. Why did she fall for that idiot of a Naruto. He wasn't that great or anything. His ninja techniques weren't something to be surprised at (A/N: At least, that was what Kiba thought, TT ). But Hinata thought differently. When you mentioned Naruto, she would be blushing and complimenting him. She'd say that she really looked up to him, and that he was so determined. Nothing like her, was what she said. She always told Kiba what she thought. Ever since he once asked her with a very serious face if there was someone she liked (with the hope he was that guy), she talked about the blonde brat. Kiba couldn't stand it, but didn't want to hurt Hinata. So he always chatted along with her. Because, he of course did talk to Naruto, so he could tell her what the blond had been up to all the time.
Kiba and Hinata ran through the forest, with the little prince in Hinata's arms. She looked at the baby and smiled again. The ran pretty fast, not wanting to fight, because that could harm the little highness. They were also happy he was asleep, so he wouldn't make a sound.
Back with Team Kakashi
They had walked for hours now, and the sun was setting. It would take three days to get to the Suna, and because Tsunade said it had to be delivered within four days, they didn't have to rush. So they made a camp already, for they would start to continue their trip in the early morning. Although Sakura had taken a soldier pill, she could feel she really needed a rest. Naruto of course, with his huge stamina, didn't need one, but Kakashi demanded him to stop. So there they were, sitting around the campfire, talking about the best route they would take from their spot to the Suna.
"We'll follow the river and go right at this crossroad. From there on it's straight on with no turns. Easy right?" Kakashi asked, but it was more like a statement. The other three nodded (A/N: Sai was with them too, of course. Can't miss him).
"We don't need anyone to watch for any intruders, because we're located in a safe area. This way, we could all get a good nice sleep," their sensei said. Sakura was very happy about it. Naruto didn't care and already headed to his tent. Sai made a smile. "Understood," was the only thing he said.
Then he too walked away en headed to their place to sleep. Soon after that, Kakashi and Sakura followed.
After travelling for two more days, they were finally in the Suna. Naruto was first to ran to the Kazekage building, while Sakura walked very slow thinking she wanted to pay a visit to her former teammate's grave. She hadn't been there in a while, but now she thought about it, she really missed it. She would go as soon they were ready with their mission.
"Yo, Gaara!" Naruto said, very amused to see his friend and Kazekage. "How've you been?"
He walked to a chair followed by Sakura and Sai. Kakashi stayed in the doorway.
"I'm okay," Gaara said. With that, he had answered his question. He still wasn't much of a talker.
When he too wanted to sit down, he heard Temari walking in.
"Huh?" she said. "I thought Shikamaru's team would deliver the scroll. What's he doing?" She looked disappointed, but also a little concerned. Sakura got the hint and smiled at her older friend. "Don't worry, Temari-san. Shikamaru's okay. He suddenly got a different mission with his teammates so he couldn't come." With this words, Temari looked relieved.
"Oh, that reminds me," she said. "Those other ones are here as well. They arrived a little earlier than you guys. They're resting in some other room right now.
Why don't you stay the night over? You must be tired." She looked hopeful to Kakashi and then at Sakura, always wanting some female company.
Kakashi said he guessed that was okay and Temari and Gaara showed them their rooms.
Sakura shared a room with Hinata, Shino was with Sai and much to their dislike, Kiba and Naruto shared a room. Kakashi had a room for his own.
"Tch." Kiba looked at his futon and than at his roommate and rival. "Don't look at me like that, you dog," Naruto said and walked to their balcony. "Shut up, you idiot," Kiba answered.
When Naruto turned to give him a good punch, they heard a knock. "Come in," they both said.
They saw Sakura and Hinata standing at the door. Hinata of course, was standing behind her friend. "You know, since it's still early, we actually wanted to ask you if you would like us to come in your room so we could chat a little bit more," Sakura said with a smile. Kiba and Naruto looked at the pink female and nodded. "I don't mind," Naruto said. "Me neither," Kiba said.
This made Hinata smile too and they walked into the room.
After a lot of chitchat and some beer (which were only drunk by Kiba and Naruto), the two females went back to their room. Kiba stayed lying on his futon and Naruto stood in the corner. It was then that he saw Hinata's shawl lying on the ground. He bent to pick it up and looked at it. She must have forgotten this, he thought. He walked to the door saying he would go bring it back and closed it.
Naruto walked through the hallway and looked for the girls room. When he had found it, he reached for the handle of the door, wanting to open it, when he felt someone was pulling at it. He stepped back, but was too late, for he felt something bump into him. It was very soft.
"O-oh!" He heard a soft voice. "I-I'm so sorry, Naruto-kun!" Hinata looked at him with her big, pale eyes and backed away quickly. "I d-didn't see y-you." Naruto watched at her and smiled. "No need to worry, Hinata-chan. You didn't harm me or anything. Actually, I was just looking for you." Hinata looked surprised. "I came to bring back your shawl. You must have forgotten it." He stuck his arm out to give Hinata her shawl back. She looked at it and said: "Thank you, N-Naruto-kun. I just w-walked out of the room to g-get it back. Sorry for c-causing you any t-trouble." Naruto, who was always eager to help, said he didn't mind and that he would be going back to his room now. They said goodbye and Naruto walked in the hallway again.
She really is soft, he thought.
