My note: This all just honestly came to me in a dream. I don't know what I ate before going to sleep, but I just happen to dream of very …..different things and then I just planned it all out in the shower. Yes, I know odd. Oh well hope you enjoy!
Chapter One: "Sand's Ally With Leaf"
The curtains were thrown open to expose the bright sun shinning the sleeper who lays so tired in the bed. Hair that strands golden and skin that is expel as tanned.
The Prince of Konoha.
"Your Grace? Your Grace?" the maid quietly says to wake the Prince of Konoha. "Your Grace, it's time to wake, your father requests to see you at breakfast." His half-lid eyes stare at her. Not being the morning person. "His Majesty also says he has an important manner to excite you with."
'Excite me with?' The few words continue to repeat itself as the maid had excused herself for him to change.
He had entered the dinning room to see his father sitting there at the very long table. A butler seated him across the way from the king to be served his normal dish of 'Breakfast Ramen' finding that this was the only thing their son would eat in the morning time. Always only caring for ramen in the food category. He found his mother to be absent as he ate hit 'Breakfast Ramen'. And as if on cue his father spoke.
"Your mother had soiled herself last night form drinking too much sakè
she is resting." The boy just looked at him. 'figures' He thought, then again that was just like this mother to drink. Within a while his mother had come in looking dashing as ever, but yet that's just sarcasm she was terribly filled with a hangover. The woman's facial expression was interesting it was twisted with a bored look. Sitting at the table now she passed some papers over to her husband. Jirayia just stared at them reading them with a frown upon his face as he looked at his son.
He Hated carriages absolutely hated them. They were too bumpy and just plain annoying to him. Traveling for about two days now was boring. He basically just wanted to get this over with.
"Gaara," The redhead turned around in responsive of his name. "There are the gates up ahead." For some reason he was egger to get to the destination or else he wouldn't had looked. Now seeing the gate to the Leaves Nation.
The Prince of Leaves had followed his father's orders and gotten dress, yet again, but for an entirely different matter.
+Flashback+
Jirayia looked at his son. "We have guests coming in Konoha today."
The younger boy looked up from his 'Breakfast Ramen' with a questioning look. "Sand is willing to become allies with us. So I would like you to wear your best attire that I had place in your room for you. So once you're done get dress properly and meet me in the Thrown Room at precisely noon."
He nodded.
+End Flashback+
'Visitors from The Sand eh?' He thought to himself before starting to dress. This uniform was his favorite; he loved its color and texture. It was very silky inside, yet a bit rough on the out. The colors were a navy blue with his signature orange lining. His Caretaker, Iruka, had bought it for him from the Trade Country when he went for a vacation. 'So Sand wants to be allied with Leaf huh? I wonder why?' He thought o himself as he now placed the detailed metals and shoulder belts to his uniform.
Instead of waiting precisely at noon to go to the Thrown Room like his father had said. He had gone a bit earlier. Which was devisationally odd for Naruto. Since he was always tardy for everything. Maybe this time was because he wanted to know who were these visitors from Sand. He waited near the Thrown Room door where two guards annoyingly watch Naruto pace up and down he hallway for the waiting appearance of his father and mother. Which precisely at noon they appeared.
All three entered the quiet Thrown Room. Well it was quiet until--
"CHAA!" Naruto fell onto the floor with a thwamp.
"Konohamaru!" Tsunade yelled at her youngest son. Hitting him on the head.
"ITAI!" The smaller boy yelled in pain.
"I told you to be here at noon. We have guest that will be here any moment." She scolds. Konohamaru just replied with a puppy-looking face. "Gomen I was with Iruka." Naruto replanted himself the way he stood before waiting for these guests to arrive. After a few more minutes of auguring with Konohamaru the Thrown Room doors opened and before revealing the full faces of the guests the royal Konoha Family was hushed.
The announcer spoke.
"King of the Sand Nation, Sabaku no Suna (A/N: That was the only name I could think of heh) , Lady of the Deer Country, Sabaku no Temari, Lord of the Metal Country, Sabaku no Kankuro, and the Prince of the Sand Nation, Sabaku No Gaara."
Four figures came into view as they stepped through the doorway. "Ah Jirayia!" The Sand King stepped up and firmly shook the Jirayia's hand. Then turned to Tsunade planting a kiss on her hand.
"I suppose you got the papers?" Suna said.
Jirayia nodded and snapped his fingers ordering for the parchments to be handed to him. (A/N: Yeah yeah I know he shouldn't have to wait.) Naruto stood there quiet listening to the conversation before he glanced at the three people standing in front of him.
They were all different and glaring, or so it seemed. The dirty blonde female kept her eyes on Suna, Naruto supposed the father. The middle one with purple warrior paint drawn perfectly on his face, was darting disgusted looks at Konohamaru who was trying to get Tsunade's attention. As for the last one was staring at Naruto. The stare was neither hate-lusted nor pleasant.
It was expressionless.
"I would like you to meet my sons, Konohamaru, my youngest," he motioned his hand to 'show off' his sons. "And my oldest, Naruto. The one I told you about." Naruto heard his father say. He snapped out of it seeing all the guests of the Sand looking at him. What Naruto was worried about was how much older they looked than him and Konohamaru.
"Ah I see." The Sand King 'oo'ed at this seeing the blue eyed boy. "And are mine," he guided his hand to show his own. The blonde stepped forward. "My name is Temari" she said gently and smooth.
"Kankuro." The face painted one announced. But the last one stood in the background not bothering with any conversation.
"Gomen," Suna spoke. "Gaara isn't very social." He glared at his son who only bothered giving a small 'hn' for words.
"Oh so this is Gaara," Jirayia said stepping forward to get a closer confirmation . This Gaara person seemed very interesting. With his fiery red hair the stood out amongst the three siblings, bright jade eyes encircled by black rings, and a scar-like kanji carved into his forehead. Yes, he was interesting. The great doors open to show a masked man holding a oversized envelope.
"Ah, yes. Thank you Kakashi." Jirayia had torn his eyes off Gaara to retrieve the envelope. Which was good because if Gaara was going to be stared at any longer he would get angry.
"Anytime." The masked man spoke then disappeared magically leaving everyone wondering how he could do such a trick.
Jirayia stared at the envelope in his hands.
Suna realized the other king's actions. "We don't have to do this you know." He lied, but sweetly, showing concern.
"I am going to, I…I just haven't' told him yet." Naruto and Konohamaru both shot questioning looks at their father.
"Now best be the time, would you like us to leave you and your family be for the discussion?"
Jirayia gave a small smile. "Please. Stay." He then turned to look at—
"Naruto," Naruto gave a 'what' look to his father. "Like I told you, Sand would like to become allied with us." The words 'would like' weren't really the truth, it was more like 'need to'.
"Yes." Naruto still looked confused.
"Well, as you know, for the Leaf Nation, in order for an ally to take place they would have to wed. For the alliances would stay true, and since Konohamaru is not at the age of able to be wed it is you who had to."
"NANI?!" Naruto yelled. "AN ENGAGMENT? TO THE SAND?! ME?" Naruto was taken back at this. Since Konohamaru wasn't the age yet to be married it would have to be him. "BUT I'M ONLY FIFTEEN!"
"And the engaged age is twelve." Tsunade cut in glaring at her son. "Plus you the oldest anyway so you would be available to be wed first anyway." Konohamaru just stood there stunned at this.
"THIS ISN'T FAIR, WHY CAN'T WE JUST MAKE A DOCUMENT AGGREMENT?"
"Because Naruto, we have more trust in marriage than on paper."
"I'm going to need a few drinks after this." Surprisingly Gaara had said, but quietly for that only his siblings could hear.
"Gaara it wont be that bad, trust me." Kankuro whispered back trying to ease his bother from this mess.
"Last time I trusted you I got peed on." He squinted his brow together showing a stupid memory.
"Oh would you two just shut--" Temari was thrown off to see that Konohamaru was tugging on her dress. Temari came down to the little boys level. Everything went quiet once he spoke.
"Be good to my older brother! OR ELSE!" Kankuro just laughed as Temari blushed saying, "Oh no, I'm not marring your brother. I'm already married." Naruto had gone quiet hearing this.
"What do you mean?" Konohamaru asked Temari.
"Well that's what the papers are for." She said pointing at the envolope in the Leaf King's hand. Naruto turned to his father holding the envolpe.
"Dad, what are the papers for?" He then asked suspiciously. Jirayia sighed.
"These papers are for two different reasons."
