Hey guys! This is my new story though I had been writing it for months now. I'm going to lay down a new rule. If you readers want a chapter, there must be at least 10 reviews and i'll update the story as quickly as I can. It's not that hard for a review and readers can take just a minute out of your daily lives to leave a comment and if you are really busy, then just find some spare time to come back and review. The reviews are dearly loved and supportive to me. All of my other stories are under revision because I'm not fully satisfied with them. They havent been taken down so dont worry too much. Alright, well, enjoy the story and leave a review at the end.
Chapter 1: Prologue
Tsunade glared across her desk at the blonde haired girl. Honestly she was going to get serious health problems if she kept on doing these things. Maybe she should retire soon and let someone else deal with the troublesome girl.
Naruto stood there pouting with her arms across her chest. It wasn't her fault this time! The man had been leering and making crude comments about her on the mission and like a good shinobi and ANBU captain, she held it together. But when he groped her chest and butt, her fist reacted to the threat. So what if he has a broken nose, his cheek is somewhat swollen, and one of his front teeth fell out. It was his fault for groping her! Every woman has a right to defend herself against perverts like him!
"Naruto, I still can't believe you did that to our client." Tsunade said. Tsunade was secretly proud that Naruto defended herself against that client. She knew that man had a tendency to hit on and grope anything that was female and alive, but she would never tell Naruto that she was proud of her. She had to properly discipline her ninja as the Hokage. Naruto started to open her mouth in protest, ready to defend herself yet again. Tsunade raised her hand before she spoke, "I will apologize to the client and will warn him of his behavior. I will send someone to inform you of your punishment later. Now go."
Naruto closed her mouth and lowered her head. She hated when baa-chan did something like this. It made her feel guilty even when she knew she did the right thing. Naruto left the room, closing the door softly behind her. She looked up and saw Sasuke leaning against the wall across from the door.
His face was impassive, but his eyes showed that he was furious with what he heard. He silently opened his arms to her and she gratefully walked into them. She felt safe and secure as he held her close to his chest.
Naruto was glad that she had stopped him from leaving the village when they were 12. When they both fought at the Valley of the End, they fought with everything they had and it was taxing on both of them. Naruto finally gave him the truth on why she didn't want him to leave. She didn't want to see her love go. Sasuke was frozen, already in the second stage of his curse seal and had his Chidori all fired up. Naruto used that opportunity to knock him out with her Rasengan. She carried him as best as she could back to Konoha even though she was just as badly injured as him. Kakashi had met them halfway there and carried Sasuke back as Naruto passed out from exhaustion, blood loss, and a lot of stress. Another ninja that was following Kakashi carried her back. A week later Sasuke, after he woke up and recovered, had answered her and told her he liked her too and would stay there for her. They have been together for 4 years now and Naruto was wondering on when Sasuke would pop the question.
Sasuke was livid that a man would treat a ninja that way after hiring her. She was not a prostitute that you could just buy and get an easy fuck. Ninja were not harlots! He hugged her closer before scooping her up in his arms and carried her back to their house. Yes, theirs, Naruto moved into Sasuke's house on her fifteenth birthday. In those four years they had defeated Orochimaru and Sasuke had killed Itachi.
Life for them was peaceful. They made it to ANBU, everyone accepted their relationship, and they were living together. Life for them was perfect.
Naruto started to protest and kick her feet as Sasuke walked through the village. She hated to be treated as if she was fragile. It made her seem weak. Sasuke refused to put her down despite her protests. He only put her down once they were inside their house.
"Sasuke! I could have walked just fine on my own! There was-" Sasuke stopped her rant by placing a kiss on her lips. They kissed slowly for a while before he pulled back. "I didn't do it for you. I did it for me so I wouldn't find him and kill him for the way he treated you." Naruto sighed and hugged him close to her body. Sasuke squeezed her tight and understood that she was forgiving him. Suddenly he picked her up around the waist and headed for the stairs to go to their bedroom. "Sasuke, what are you doing!" Naruto giggled as her legs wrapped around his waist. Sasuke didn't answer, but his Naruto would soon figure out.
Harry was amazed at where he was at. He had never been here before, but he couldn't wait to see the Quidditch World Cup. He was grateful for the Weasley's to invite Hermione and him along so they could watch Bulgaria and Ireland compete against each other. He hoped that Bulgaria would win tonight's match. Fred and George were rooting for the Irish while Ron was on his side. He couldn't help the rush of excitement that swelled in him as he saw people all around him with goods being sold, tricks and magic being performed, people getting drunk off of their surroundings and beer, and broomsticks flying overhead.
They all walked over to a small tent after the Diggorys left them. He was surprised to see such a small tent and he wondered how they would all fit. Fred and George first entered along with Ginny, Hermione, and Ron. Mr. Arthur followed them in calling behind him, "Come on Harry." Harry was hesitant at first but soon followed them in. His breath caught as he took in the inside of the tent. The inside was definitely bigger than the outside. There was two bedrooms, a bathroom, a small kitchen with a dining room and living room all attached together. "I love magic," he breathed as he made his way in.
Night fell upon them and the stadium was lit up like a Christmas tree. Screams and cheers were pouring out of it as they boosted their team's confidence up. Harry, Ron, Hermione, and the Weasleys made their way up to the top. "How much farther, Dad?" Ron whined behind Harry. The Malfoys were down below them as they made their way through the throng of people. "Well, if it rains, you'll be the first to know." Mr. Malfoy jeered at them. Hermione was clutching onto Harry's arm, sending tingles up and down his body. He wasn't sure why he was feeling this way, maybe he would ask Ron or Sirius someday.
He vaguely hears Malfoy boasting about them being able to sit in the Ministries box. Harry was about to walk away when Mr. Malfoy's cane latched onto his foot. "I'd be careful if I was you, Potter." With that he let go and left with Malfoy. Hermione had his arm in a death grip and he put his hand on hers to silently reassure her. They started to move again to their seats.
The excitement was getting to them and they started to cheer even if the players weren't on the field yet. Suddenly green and white streaks shot through the air as the Irish player came on the field. Green fireworks exploded behind them and a glittery leprechaun formed and started to dance. The Irish made a lap around the field before stopping on their side of the field. Soon the Bulgarian team joined them; shooting through the leprechaun and making it explode in fiery red colors of their team. Everyone started to chant 'Krum' as he flew through the air. "That's the best seeker in the world!" someone said. Harry was too absorbed in the game and the flashy way they entered. He hoped that one day he would be doing the same thing as them.
The Irish had won the game and everyone was celebrating. Fred and George were singing an Irish song while trying to do a river dance. Harry hugged a pole in the tent and watched as Ron got up on a small table. "Victor Krum is not just an athlete," he started. The twins stopped and started to circle him. Fred threw his cape over Ron before he could finish his sentence. "He's an artist!" he sounded out of breathe and had wide eyes that showed of his amazement and respect for Victor. George got down on one knee and took Ron's hand. "Victor, I love you~" He started to sing. Fred did the next verse "Victor, I do~" Harry joined in on their serenade to Ron, "When were apart my heart beats only for you! ~" they laughed as they heard another bang from outside. "The Irish must be celebrating." George commented. Mr. Arthur came back with a panicking face. "It's not the Irish. Come on."
He started to pull them out of the tent and what met them was pure chaos. Tents all around them were set a blaze as people ran screaming in different directions. Hermione was gripping his arm again and he was holding her close. He was terrified to let her go in this mass of screaming people. They started to run and he couldn't hear what was being said. All he could hear was people screaming in his ear. Then he saw them.
They were wearing black cloaks that came up in a point on top of their head. They were wearing white masks that covered their face. They were flicking their wands every which way, setting fire to everything in their path. The people around him kept pushing and pulling and he felt Hermione's hand slip from his own. "Harry! Harry!" he could hear her calling him over the screams of terror with her own terror laced voice. He tried to run after her, but the people kept pushing him one way.
Harry was trying to go against them, but one person against many didn't work well. Soon he fell and he was being run over as he lay there. He tried to get up, but a foot to the head knocked him unconscious.
The night air was heavy with smoke when Harry woke up. He looked around and noticed that the tents in the camping ground were nothing more than skeletons of their former selves. He noticed a man far off in the distance and the smoke made it hard to see him. The man stumbled over to where he was and Harry got up and hid behind a skeletal tent, gripping one of its ropes that it was still connected to.
"Harry!" "Harry! Where are you?" His friend's voices broke the graveyard silence of the night. He watched as the man ran the opposite way of the voices. Soon Hermione was holding onto him while Ron came up behind her. They started to say something, but suddenly a group of people surrounded them, screaming "Stupefy!" They all ducked down to the ground before they got hit. The spells all crashed together creating a blinding red light. "That's my son you're shooting at!" Mr. Arthur's voice rang in the air as he ran over to them. Once he got over to them he asked if they were alright. Then Mr. Crouch came over and started to spew things faster than Harry's mind could process. He did catch 'scene of the crime.'
"What crime?" he asked once he got his bearings. "Harry, that's the dark mark up there." Hermione pointed up in the sky. The giant skull with a snake slithering out of its mouth glowed ominously above them. "Then those people were… Voldemort's followers?" he breathed out. "Those were Death Eaters, Harry." Mr. Arthur said. Mr. Crouch looked around with wide fearful eyes. "Come along, all of you." Harry paused before he remembered that man. "Wait, there was a man. Over there." Harry pointed in the direction that he'd seen him. Mr. Crouch nodded before his men and he went over there to look. Mr. Arthur started to push them forward. Harry wondered why Death Eaters were there.
Naruto lay cuddled up against Sasuke's bare chest. Sasuke was stroking her arm from elbow up to her shoulder. It was soothing for them both as they lay there in the night. Naruto sighed in contentment as she listens to his heartbeat. "Naruto," Sasuke said. "Hmm?" she hummed against his chest. "Marry me." Naruto sat up and stared into his onyx eyes. She could tell he was serious as his eyes bore into her. A bright smile lit up her face as she pounced on him. "YES!" she screamed. She littered kissed all over his face and body. He sighed in relief as she sat up with bright blue eyes and a smile that could rival the sun. He reached over to the nightstand by his bed and grabbed a small box that was sitting there. He sat up and pulled out the ring. Naruto held out her left hand as he slipped it on her ring finger.
Naruto stared in awe of the ring. It was a simple silver band that had Sasuke's name on one side of the ring and her name on the other side. An aquamarine gem sat in the center of the ring with small diamonds circling it. It was simple and delicate; just like her.
Tears gathered in her eyes as she looked back up at Sasuke. "Thank you." She leaned forward to softly kiss him. He rolled her over, ready to continue their earlier activities and also to celebrate their engagement as he kissed her hungrily. He smirked into the kiss as she eagerly responded to his touch. Naruto moaned as she sank into the bed with Sasuke's weight on top of her as he made her forget everything.
Tsunade sat at her desk, looking out at the moon that sat high in the sky. She looked back at her desk that was piled high with paper. She sighed before she reached for the sake under her desk. Something red made her stop and look up. There sitting on her desk was a red envelope that had gold trimming on the edges. She reached for it and opened it. It was addressed to her and as she read she started to smirk.
'This is just the punishment I was looking for.' she thought as she took a swig of her drink and continued with her paper work.
