It was a beautiful day in Konoha, the birds were singing, the flowers were blooming, and a sunny blonde haired boy around the age of sixteen or seventeen looked to be carrying a body the size of him on his back to the gates of the great Konoha…..What the hell?
Well, it seems like it was gonna be quite the weird day for the gate guards.
Naruto's breath was ragged. His legs shaking as he carried the body of his longtime rival and friend (in his eyes at least) down the dirt path to their home village.
Their epic showdown in the valley of the end was quite the array to any observers, but there weren't any soooo yea….but Naruto didn't want anybody there anyway seeing as they could get hurt and hinder the fight.
(Ex. Kiba)
Naruto gave a snicker at the thought of the brown haired inuzuka getting thrown comedically out of the fight, though the action brought pain causing him to cough up a bit of blood and to stumble slightly.
Naruto righted himself and once again started his trudge along the dirt path
"I couldn't beat you with a fucking Chidori but laughing almost takes you out?" Sasuke said grumpily, his voice hoarse from their battle.
"heya teme" Naruto replied his voice just as hoarse.
Sasuke only grumbled and narrowed his eyes at the ground
"so… you're really taking me back huh?"

"usuratonkachi you're too loud, we're supposed to be ninja and ninja are supposed to be quietdonedonee". Sasuke stated matter of factly.
Though Naruto couldn't give two fucks seeing as he was never quiet before so why should he start now? besides the village gates were in eyesight and being noisy meant they could get help faster, because believe it or not Sasuke was heavy as fuck, and it was putting a strain on Naruto's already bruised back.
Naruto's lungs burned and his body ached, it was true that he had very high levels of stamina and could travel for months at a time without feeling the least bit winded, but he and Sasuke had both done a number on each other, and his body hurt everywhere.
It was sunny and beautiful and absolutely and utterly boring for the two dubbed 'eternal chunin' gate guards.
