A Chance

Disclaimer: Yes I know I don't own Naruto despite how much I wish I did.

Author's Note: First SasuNaru fic ok? Secondly this story starts off with episode two and will run to whatever episode I choose… then things will go the way I want them so as to suit my needs. May even resort back to the episode line. MAYBE is the key word though!

Prologue

The sky was darkening, changing as the sun rolled across the sky. High up in the sky it was colored a blue-black color and further to the horizon were the mixings of bright and fiery colors. It was making that slow descent, ready to trade off her duties to brother-moon. As she slipped under her brother appeared with its silvery color and dark pocks of gray, happy to shine in his own way down on the people below him.

This calming ritual, however unknown it may seem, allowed a village hidden amongst the leaves to relax from the day's tension, created from the heat the sun bore down upon them in her happiness. The cool night eased this tension, bringing in peace to everyone that welcomed it as the forest around them, still and quiet during the day, burst forth into its nightly sounds.

Inside the village itself, the people snuggled into their beds, alone or with those they loved, ready to sleep and prepare for the next hot day. Not everyone was able to sleep at this time, for in this village there are those who function at night. These people are stealthy and quick, leaping on the houses without making any sounds, setting up a guard. Others would make it to fall under the night's graces, but only after gruesome hours of work. After all it was their job.

Mainly this went to the village's protector who stayed in a high tower that looked out over the entire village. He or sometimes a she worked into the night, allowing breaks only when their eyes blurred, telling them to sleep. It was only like this during the summer for them all because the heat easily sparks anger and could cause wars with other villages.

Inside where this protector lives, two people were deep in thought. One was a silent man that seemed to give off a slightly dark aura. He was stretched out on a bed, off into on corner of the room where little candlelight shone. Where it did fall was upon pale flesh that belied the true strength of what was within a lithe form. His dark eyes were focused on the other man, watching him as he thought. Fragile looking hands were wrapped around each other his chin resting on top of them as his feet kicked the pillows behind him. Every now and again one hand would slip free and push back a midnight black strand of hair that would glint blue in the light.

The other man stood behind a desk piled with papers that demanded to be signed or read. His back was turned to it as he stared out a window down upon the village. Deep blue eyes were in deep thought, deeper than his comrade's own. A hand would either rub thin scars in a set of three on each cheek, looking a bit like whiskers, or it would run through unruly blonde hair and fix the robs that told of his status.

He turned as a knock sounded on the doors on the other end of the room. He sighed, looking over to his comrade before taking a seat into his chair. He smirked softly as his friend threw a pillow at his head with a grunt of recognition about something.

"You may enter…" Spoke the whiskered man, watching as the doors opened to reveal a set of triplets and a set of twins. Each looked almost the same. The triplets were older than the twins. The triplets were composed of two girls and one boy and the twins were one girl and one boy. Each had a head of thick black hair, but streaked with natural blonde highlights. The girls had bright blue eyes and the boys had dark eyes.

The tallest of the triplets and one of the girls, walked forward and bowed deeply to the blonde man. Her brother followed at middle height and her sister as the smallest. The twins were only young children, looking to be at least five years in age. They smiled and ran over to the blonde man instead, laughing slightly as he picked the both of them up and pulled them into his lap. He then sent a stare to the triplets, of which were at least nine or ten years old.

"Sumire, Sora, and Sayori. Do you know why I have summoned you here today?" He asked, gently keeping the twin's hands away from his stack of papers. He watched as all three looked to his comrade who had walked over to an empty chair.

Sumire, the eldest, looked up and shook her head. "No, Hokage."

Sora, the middle-sized boy looked up as well. "We were wondering…

Then Sayori looked up. "… If you could tell us why?"

The Hokage grinned, making his dark-haired companion narrow his eyes as he recognized the hint of mischief. The Hokage grunted and set the young twins on the ground. They at once ran to the man and clung to his legs. He just looked down at them with a warm smile.

"It seems you three were the ones who played that prank this afternoon… were you not?"

At once all three faces paled and they hung their heads. In unison they spoke. "Yeah… we were the ones…"

The Hokage grinned and stood up, walking over to stand in front of them. He placed a hand on Sumire's head. "Ah… you three are so much the little rascals like I once was."

Sumire looked up with hope on her face. "We were? But you're the Hokage? You can't have been doing things like we do!" Her siblings nodded.

"Au contraire, I did! Painting the faces of the Hokages was one of my favorite things to do. As a result… your punishment will be the same as mine."

"What punishment did you receive…?" Asked Sora as he looked up into the Hokage's face.

"Well… I had to clean up the mess I made… without stopping for food." He grinned as they all groaned.

"Aw man… I told you weuldn't have done that prank…" Whined Sayori.

"Stop whining. Now… all three of you should go to bed and ready for your job tomorrow since there are no classes." He looked to the twins. "And take Taka and Tsuki with you."

The triplets bowed and took the twins from the dark-haired man after he kissed each child on the forehead. They all murmured good night to him and left the room. His blonde companion sighed in relief, chuckling softly as he started to sign some more papers.

"I saw that look in your eyes…" He murmured, making the Hokage jump slightly. He stood up and walked over to his side and leaned down to kiss a whiskered cheek.

"Ah… those were the good old days… neh Sasuke-kun?" He grinned and trapped him in a hug before he could walk away.

"Hai… Naruto-kun…" Sasuke nuzzled his neck and let out a soft sigh. "I can recall how everything started…"

Naruto groaned, wrapping his arms around Sasuke's neck. Tilting his head to the side to expose more of his neck. "Who ever thought we would make it this far?"

Sasuke nipped at his neck, licking the areas afterwards, grinning as he elicited another moan from the man now beneath him. "I did… knew we would right after the Haku incident."

"Hmm…really now?"

"Hai…"

Naruto smirked, leaning his head right into Sasuke's face. He reached up with a free hand and poked his nose. He couldn't help but grin at his confused look. "If I recall though, it wasn't till way after that event that we realized anything…"

Sasuke blinked in confusion again. All thought was lost as the Kyuubi container assaulted his neck with his mouth, forcing out a deep groan.

"T-T-True…"
