Team 7 has been on a lot of missions over the years…escorted a lot of royalty to their desired destination. But to escort a princess…might stir up one member's past, for better or for worse.
Normal Text –talking-
Italics –thoughts-
Pretty basic right? This is my first fanfic so constructive criticism is welcome. :D

Prologue
"Another escort mission Tsunade?" Naruto wined.
"Yes Naruto, another one." Tsunade yelled slamming her hands on the desk. She hated when Naruto complained. He was a jounin now, 22 on top of it, time to grow up. She sighed.
"But we just creamed some guy on our last mission. You couldn't give us a higher ranked mission?" Naruto continued his tantrum.
"This is a higher ranked mission Naruto." Sakura said looking up from the file she was given. "Why such a high rank for an escort mission, Tsunade?" Sakura asked.
"The princess of the Rain Village needs to be escorted to the Cloud Village." Tsunade started.
"A princess, Sasuke. Maybe she'll hit on you and you can work on that second goal of yours." He nudged the cold teammate with his elbow. "You know the one to restore your clan. You only got so much time." Naruto pestered. He was kind of right. Naruto recently was married to Hinata and Sakura screwed anything with a pulse.
"Shut up, idiot." Sasuke said coldly.
"You know I'm right teme. You keep waiting around you'll have to settle for a fan girl or worse, Sakura." He said hushed to his raven-haired friend. Another point Sasuke thought. Everyone was married Ino and Shikamaru, Neji and Tenten, and lastly Naruto and Hinata. He thought how much he didn't want a fan girl, or Sakura. He cringed at the thought. Sasuke told everyone he was perfectly fine with being single. But he would like to have someone to settle down with.
"Hn." He huffed.
"Are you done Naruto?" Tsunade asked. The blonde nodded.
"Good. As I was saying. The princess needs to be accompanied to the Cloud Village for her wedding and then she and her new husband need to be escorted to the Lightning Village." Tsunade finished.
"So about 2-3 weeks?" Sakura asked. Tsunade nodded.
"Good, can't be away too long." She smiled.
"Yeah she might lose her clientele." Naruto whispered. Sasuke cracked a smile and Tsunade laughed.
"Anyways." Tsunade said still laughing. "I want you guys gone by dawn. That means no hook-ups tonight Sakura." Sakura crossed her arms and stomped away. After the mission was given Naruto and Sasuke walked around the village discussing the new mission.
"So it looks like Sasuke isn't getting a princess. Such a shame, now he's got to go home to his lonely apartment and sleep alone." Naruto teased.
"Funny, you were in the same situation three months ago. Don't you need to go home or something?" Sasuke asked annoyed.
"No. What teme can't take a joke." Naruto said continuing his badgering.
"No, I thought you told me earlier that it was you and Hinata's third month anniversary." He lied. Naruto's eyes widened, he grabbed his head."
"Crap. I forgot!" Naruto said running towards his house.
"Idiot." Sasuke thought. Sasuke walked home to his house. Living in his clans neighborhood was weird considering most people thought he wanted to get over it but the place he grew up was all he knew and he intended keeping it that way. When he arrived at his home, he walked inside and threw his keys on his coffee table. Walking to his room he thought about what Naruto said the silence starting to bother him. For once in his life he was jealous of Naruto. What he had, a wife, a future for a family of his own. Naruto could go home and be embraced in a hug by his wife and showered in kisses. Sasuke wanted, needed something like that. He needed to be able to look a woman in the face and tell her he loved her. He wanted to be able to come home and have someone besides his friends to waiting for him. Itachi was defeated and gone. He could now have someone special in his life without worrying constantly of her safety. Lying in his bed he thought about what it would be like to have a wife, let alone a girlfriend. He was ready to see another person besides himself wearing the Uchiha symbol. He smiled at the thought. A woman wearing a kimono with the Uchiha emblem and swelled belly. He then promised himself as soon as he got back, he would find himself a girlfriend. With that he stripped down to his boxers and went to bed.
A/N: Thank you for reading my prologue to my story To Escort a Princess. Reviewing and constructive criticism is welcomed, but please be kind. Maybe you could be awesome click that shiny GO button down there ; ) . I hope to post the first chapter next week. Depends on the response to this little piece of the story. I originally made Sakura married to Kiba but thought a slutty Sakura would be more interesting especially when I think of her as a pointless character. Anyways, besides my rambling. Review and hope you have an awesome day!
Buzz you later…
