To those who looked in on the happenings of the old Uchiha Estate, it seemed like the young lord of the manor had quite suddenly decided that he wanted to start a collection of obscure non-Shinobi items. A Cart full of boxes sat outside the manor, the dreaded Kusabi standing with his little son outside of the house, the last Uchiha at his side. The fair young man smiled and kept reasuring the younger looking man that everything was fine, that it didn't matter if Naruto thought that it was silly to move all the stuff from the blondes own home in a Mist Country village out here, that he didn't mind.

The little boy, however, was casting confused and angry views at the happenings. His daddy had kissed that man, the one who took him away, and now they were moving into his house. Iruka didn't like not understanding things, and continued to watch the men who were moving everything with suspicious eyes.

"Iruka's room is near ours, right?" The anxious blonde asked.

Eboney haired and alabaster skinned, the more seasoned Shinobi nodded, "Across and to the left of ours. It was Itachi's room before..." He trailed off, but the two older ones shared a glance signifying that it was understood even without words exchanged.

Bright blue eyes looked up at them suspiciously, before he took his dad's hand and pulled him a little so that his parent would pay him attention.

"What is it, Aka-chan?" Naruto asked, squating down so that he could look into dashing blue eyes.

"Iruka misses Oji-san. Why are we leaving Oji-san's house and living with him?" He lifted his free hand to point at Sasuke who stood behind Naruto.

A slightly pained expression came across the blondes face. "Iruka-sensei will be by sometime soon, don't worry about that. And we're moving in with Sasuke...because Sasuke is really very nice, Iruka. It was his job to find us, so don't be mad at him for doing it." The little boy nodded obediently, but the flash of understanding did not come, and Naruto knew he was right back in square one.

Naruto looked up at the chest that the movers were taking out of the cart and smiled. "Ne, Iruka-chan. Looks like your Toy Box is finally making an appearance." He indicated the two movers carrying the heavy, old wooden trunk that Naruo had traded his last Kunai for.

A bright smile fell over the little boys face as he saw the trunk, hurrying to follow the movers to where it would be put down. Naruto's smile wavered for a second before he stood and hugged his arms as though a chill had come over him. Stronger arms wrapped around his folded arms, warm palms calming him.

"Why not tell him?" Came the soft voice in his ear and he sighed.

"We've been through this. I think we should get settled before telling him, his whole worlds been turned upside-down in only a short two weeks...he's six years old, we need to establish a point of stability before shifting him around anymore." His words were correct, lavish, but he felt his resolve wavering a little.

Sasuke leaned his head against his...lover sounded too uncomited, but mate sounded too final, so he finally consented and kissed the side of Naruto's tanned neck.

"Does this stability include a diet of instant ramen?"

Naruto grinned playfully, "I'm a chef, you know! I can make a great deal more than micro-wave ramen now." He huffed, sticking his chest out pridefully, Sasuke was instantly reminded of the young man that he had fallen in love with eight years prior emerging from the older shell.

Sasuke smirked, poking Naruto side and making a quick retreat towards the house before the blonde could retaliate. Naruto fumed in lovesick anger before smiling softly to himself, God's above how he had missed Sasuke...but God's above how he pushed his buttons...

Turning, he examined the immediate surroundings for a second. A small voice in the back of his head warned him not to become overly comfortable, something in the air warned him...a tingle in the feral Kusabi part of his mind's fur stood on end and sensed the danger.

But the sky was blue, and the tree's were all booby-trapped, the land a delicate array of hidden traps and danger. Naruto had warned Iruka against going outside of the thin stone path around the estate, beyound that his safety could not be assured. Iruka's eyes were fearful of it, and asked if they could put up something more noticable than a small gravel path.



Still...that small tingling remained, as he turned back back the house and walked towards the traditional Japanese style exterior, he distinctly sensed another...but this was /Sasuke's/ home, if there were someone there, he'd know of it; so Naruto set his mind to rest and do something...lunch maybe.

He'd have to find the kitchen and make lunch, he'd make Iruka something special, and make more incase Iruka-sensei and/or Kakashi-sensei stopped by. Naruto his his smirk at the memory of spying on the two of them when he was younger, thats when he'd first seen the skilled art of the 'Shounen-Kissu*'

Little did he know that a small object hung in the boughs of a seemingly regular tree, dully watching the happenings. A mind, behind the object, both smiled and frowned when Naruto had turned and looked almost directly at it. Had the Lost-One seen him?

A small quirk in the brow and then there was nothing more.

*Boy-kiss...yes, I know Irukashi, I couldn't help it. My prize winner deserves it.

Also...hehe, left you with /juuuust/ enough to be interested in, didn't I? Anyway, little summery...Naruto and Sasuke are in love...again. Sasuke got Naruto's stuff from his house, I don't know if they have cars or not so I ignored them, and the Uzumaki's are joining Sasuke in his /huge ass/ estate.

But what peril awaits them?

...I'm not really sure yet, so Chapter two might not be up for a while...
