Chapter 1
-In fire country-
It was about 6:30 in the morning when a girl with pink hair knocked lightly on one of the many doors in the fire country's palace. When no answer came she sighed and opened the old wooden door.
The room was decorated in oranges, red, and blues. The large bed in the far corner had bright orange and blue sheets. A bush of bright yellow hair stuck out from underneath the covers and the person sleeping there let out a loud snore. The girl rolled her eyes before walking over to the bed and roughly shacking the sleeping teen.
"Come on Naruto wake up!" the blond just rolled over and continued to sleep. The girl sighed again and smacked the blond as hard as she could in the head. With a yelp the blond sat up, "Hey!…Sakura what's the deal? Damn that hurt." Sakura smiled and placed her hands on her hips.
"Naruto, your father wants to see you to discuss your travel arrangements for tomorrow." The blond smiled sheepishly and scratched the back of his neck. "Oh yeah I forgot about that. I'll be ready in a few minutes." Sakura smiled and hurried out of the room, giving Naruto some privacy. 'I kind of feel sorry for this girl that Naruto is going to marry, but it has to be done.'
Once the door was closed Naruto jumped out of his bed and went into his closet, he quickly changed into clean cloths. (His cloths aren't important, He looks like how he does when he's in the anime just without the orange jacket.) He smiled at himself in the mirror before heading out of the room.
Sakura smiled at him when he finally closed his door. "Come on your father is waiting for you in the throne room." Naruto sarcastically sighed, "Yeah, yeah." The blond walked past his friend and arrived at the Throne room a few minutes later.
"Father, you wanted to see me." Sitting in one of the throne was a tall man with flaming red hair and amber eyes. In the other chair was a woman with long blond hair that was pulled into two ponytails and also amber eyes. The two looked up when the blond entered, "Ah, yes Naruto we need to talk about tomorrow. We were originally going to just send you to the sound palace but we decided that it would be better if we came with you."
Naruto tilted his head in confusion, "What made you change your mind?" The older man smiled down at him. "Well my son, we thought it would be best if we came with you so that we could meet the sound king." The blond teen smiled. "Oh I see. So when are we leaving tomorrow?"
"We'll be leaving early, it'll take almost the entire day just to reach the sound and fire border. We already sent word to their king about this and he was fine with it." Naruto nodded, "Ok. I'm gonna go to the library, Iruka-sensei is waiting for me." He turned and hurried from room. The two adults looked at each other before sighing at the same time. "Something tells me that he's a little too happy about this." The blond nodded in agreement.
-In Sound country-
A man with long greasy black hair and yellow snake-like eyes sat smugly in the tall throne. Next to him sitting silently in a smaller throne was a young teen-age girl who had waist length soft, midnight black hair and deep coal-black eyes. Behind the two chairs stood a man with silver-hair that was pulled into a ponytail.
In front of the thrones stood a man who had short spiky brown hair. He was currently speaking to the king about some of the problems in the sound country. "My lord. It seems that the water country has been sending some of their worriers to breech our borders."
The dark haired king gestured for the silver-haired man to come forward. "Kabuto I want your men to look into this. Have a few of them go and see what they can find out, I expect them back no later then tomorrow night so you better get going." The man bowed then quickly left the room, before the brown haired man continued.
"Also the King and Queen of fire country should be arriving at around 10 o'clock tomorrow night with their son." The sound king nodded, "Ah yes, I trust their rooms are already prepared for them." The man nodded, "Yes sir the rooms are perfectly in order." The other smirked, "Good…and Sasuke I expect you to be ready an hour before they arrive after all you will be meeting your soon to be husband's family."
The raven-haired girl bowed her head and softly answered. "Yes father." The man turned and looked at her, "Oh and one more thing, aren't you supposed to be training with Kakashi right now?" Sasuke's eyes widened as she remembered and she quickly stood. "I'll leave now." She bowed deeply to her father and gracefully walked from the room.
-Time skip the next morning in fire country-
Naruto flew down the large staircase and skidded to a halt in front of a man with brown hair that was pulled up into a ponytail. "Naruto-san you need to be more careful. You could have seriously hurt yourself. Your supposed to acting like your 16 not 5." The blond sighed and rolled his eyes, "Come on Iruka-sensei you know I wouldn't do anything that bad."
The brunette sighed but smiled anyway as the blond changed the subject. "So where are my mom and dad?" Iruka shrugged but before he had a chance to answer a deeper voice caught their attention.
"We're right here." The king and queen were walking calmly down the stairs that Naruto had come down a few moments ago. "So I take it your ready to finally meet your so to be wife and her father?" The blond nodded, "Yeah I'm really excited that I can actually help with the country's affairs."
The blond woman raised an eyebrow at her son, "well I'm glad you're taking such an interest in the country." Naruto smiled up at her. But the red-haired king coughed. "ahem, I think it would be best if we left now. We were supposed to leave about 10 minutes ago." The blonds laughed as the group made their way out of the large palace.
All of their cloths for their time in sound were already loaded into the carriage,(1) as the group climbed into said carriage. The horses started forward and the carriage moved off down the road. Naruto watched out the window and started to imagine what the girl he was supposed to marry would look like.
-In sound-
The early morning found the dark haired princess sitting inside a dojo, her legs were crossed and her dark eyes were closed as she silently meditated. The one side of the large room was opened into a garden where a few birds happily sang to each other.
Sasuke opened her eyes and watched as one of the bright red birds landed next to another and the two started to sing together. A soft sighed past through her lips, 'I envy you. Your free to come and go as you please, never listening to what others tell you.' She continued to watch the creatures until they flew over the garden's high walls. The raven inwardly saddened but her attention was drawn away from the garden when the door to the dojo slid open.
"Ah Sasuke I've been looking all over for you." A man with silver hair that stood up at a weird angle, walked into the room. "I thought today we'd start your training off with some reaction tests and then we'll continue with your throwing exercises." The young raven nodded and stood from her spot on the floor.
The two walked out of the small dojo and then into the large training field that already had a few other soldiers, who were doing their own practices. The silver-haired teacher led Sasuke over to the shelves that held all the practice weaponry. He grabbed a ring of kunai, then walked over to a free space in the huge room.
Sasuke stood across from Kakashi and dropped into a defensive stance, after a few silent seconds the silver-haired teacher throw the first kunai at the pale teen. Sasuke easily dodged the sharp object and moved again as another flew toward her.
She caught the fourth kunai and used the dangerous weapon to deflect the rest that came toward her. After all the weapons were thrown Kakashi smiled down at the younger girl. "Good, you have gotten much better. Now go ahead and go get your shuriken, then head on over to the targets." Sasuke silently did what her teacher told her.
Once she was gone Kakashi sighed and started to pick up the kunai that he had thrown. 'I hope this prince isn't self centered, arrogant and I really hope he doesn't treat her badly. Sasuke has had enough happen to her already.' When he was done he replaced all the kunai and walked over to the targets. He walked up behind the raven-haired girl and watched as she threw shuriken after shuriken at the red and white target, every one of the sharp projectiles landing perfectly in the center.
Kakashi sadly smiled down at the raven before turning and walking out of the training field. He walked through the halls of sound palace before he stopped in front of a large door. He knocked loudly on the hard wood and waited until he heard an enter before opening the door and walking in.
"Sorry for the interruption Orochimaru-sama but I came to inform you of Sasuke-san's progress." The dark haired king smiled and nodded, "Ah yes, how is my little Sasuke doing?" Kakashi hesitated for a second before continuing. "She has completed this months assignments early, I came to see what you wish me to teach her next?" Orochimaru relaxed back into his chair, "I want you to teach her how to use a sword and I want her to master it before she leaves for Konoha for her marriage."
The silver-haired teacher hide his shock and bowed to the king and said, "Hia my lord." Before he quickly walked out of the room. Once the door closed Kakashi leaned against it and breathed deeply, 'How the hell is she going to master a sword before she leaves? That only gives her three weeks.'
He pushed off the wall and slowly made his way back to the training field. Once he was there he looked up and saw Sasuke was still at the targets. 'She has been at it for 30 minutes, that can't be good.' A if hearing his thoughts the young princess stopped throwing, but after a few seconds she started to sway and Kakashi quickly moved over just in time to catch the pale teen as she started to fall.
"Crap! Some one go get Kabuto!" two of the other sound soldiers that had been training quickly dropped their weapons and ran from the room. Kakashi laid Sasuke carefully on the floor and was about to snap at some one else to go when another silver-haired man came hurrying into the large room. His hair was pulled back into a ponytail and he was wearing glasses.
Once he was close enough he started to talk to Kakashi. "What happened?" "I left her to train while I spoke with Orochimaru-sama and when I came back she was still practicing but she suddenly fell over."
Kabuto nodded and checked her pulse, "Her pulse is weak. Kakashi can you carry her to the medical ward for me?" Kakashi nodded and bent over to pick up the unconscious girl. He quickly followed Kabuto as he led the way to the medical ward.
Once they arrived Kabuto directed Kakashi to place the raven-haired girl onto one of the many beds in the room. The medic quickly checked over Sasuke before giving a sigh of relief and turning to Kakashi. "Well it's not as bad as I first thought. She just collapsed from over exertion and under nutrition."
Kakashi looked at the other for a moment before sheepishly smiling. "and that would mean?" Kabuto sighed and rolled his eyes, "It means that she hasn't been eating or sleeping properly and all her stress wasn't helping the situation any." They were quiet for a moment before Kabuto continued, "I think it would be best if she got a good sleep and then ate a full meal." Kakashi paled, "I don't know about that, lord Orochimaru has given her another skill to master before she leaves."
Kabuto pinched the bridge of his nose, "Well she can continue her training after some rest." The taller silver-haired man nodded, "alright I'll take her up to her room so she won't have to get there later." Kabuto didn't object as Kakashi picked up the princess and carried her up to her room.
their stuff was already packed before they got into the carriage. It sounded confusing to me so sorry if it confused you.
