AN: A little story that takes place in the future. I had to put another girl in there, so… Temari married into the village. Pair her with whoever you want. :P
I do not own Naruto, because if I did, there would be more topless men…
Temari was having lunch with Hinata and Tenten on an average summer afternoon. They were laughing and having a good time, enjoying the relaxation that came between missions. When Naruto stormed by them in a huff, Hinata looked as though she wanted to flag him down, but thought better of it.
Temari cast her a curious look. "Umm... Do I want to know what's eating our Hokage?"
Tenten rolled her eyes. "He just got back from an important mission. It was successful in more ways than one, but now I think he's wishing it wasn't. You knew that already though, didn't you?"
Temari raised an eyebrow, not understanding. "Umm... Tenten, I might be in the Anbu, but I don't know everything. Explain a bit more please. This time in depth."
Hinata blushed. "He was on an important mission to the Rice Country, trying to talk some local warlords out of attacking each other. His methods of persuasion are a bit... unorthodox, but they worked rather well."
"Ok, so I hear one success. What's the other?"
Tenten looked at her curiously. "You mean you haven't heard from Sakura or Ino?"
"Heard what?" She asked exasperatedly, getting tired of them dodging around the question.
At that moment there was a yell. The three girls stood up, on guard instantly. As they looked up into the sky, they watched a small black speck grow larger and larger, until they recognized it as a person. He came crashing to the ground, leaving a sizable dent, only to bounce a few times and leave more holes in the road. Just then, Sakura came running around the corner, screaming all manner of curses and looking for all the world like she was going to light the street on fire with just her presence alone. The man in the crater picked himself up, looked back at her, grimaced, and started running down the street as if for his life (which was very much the case.)
As Sakura tore past them,(still screaming all manner of profanity and forcing mothers to cover their children's ears) Temari stared in confusion. "What the hell is going on?!"
Tenten smiled. "Like I said, you haven't heard? Sasuke came back."
