SO, here is my jaw after seeing the results of my poll... BANK CRUNCH CRACK QUAKE SHATTER!... My jaw went through the floor and the very earth itself digging to the damn core from how amazingly huge this poll was. 100+ VOTERS! DAMN!

I gotta say, I did NOT expect that to hit me like it did in only a week, but it did, and damn am I impressed. So, before we hit the story, here is the final tally on the top 5! (remember, review votes from before the poll were halved, but still adding to the polls number)

With a Whooping 43 votes: Kyuubi

An Equally impressive 40 Votes: Anko

In third place with 33 votes is: Yuugito

Fourth place with 31 votes is: Haku

And Last place with 28 votes is: Hana

This poll surprised me, Kyuubi went from 10th place to first like wildfire, Anko kept in the leading place for days before finally settling into 2nd place... Haku was low in the roster as well, so this poll gave me a surprise.

In fact, the exponential growth of several girls cannot be chance... it seemed like whilst a top contender like TenTen who steadily went up to tie with three other girls for 6th, Tsunade, Yuugito, Hana, and Haku were suddenly inflamed into the top five in the last 2-3 days of the poll. (Tsunade being tied for 6th)

Now, seeing as I cannot tell for certain who voted for their fends or whatever to increase their votes... I will stand by the poll as it is, cause the top five did do well in the reviews as well as the poll. Tsunade is flat out, however, due to the fact there is NO way she got ten votes in less than 24 hours when it has been 2 weeks... Sorry Tsunade fans, but that's too big an increase for me to say it's fair, considering it was only her who got the increase so high. However, Tsunade fans, I am not kicking her out of the story totally here. Some girls will appear as just family, not pairings at all, just people who are there as protectors or helpers and whatnot. So Tsunade will be in the story, just not as a pairing.

Also, there will be a surprise 7th girl in the harem... Not gonna say who, it's a surprise, but after all 6 are in, the seventh will appear late on, so do not worry about that. Just enjoy the story! Let's get it started! (not adding them in order of poll results, random each time)

Shizune set the papers on the table in front of her and Naruto finished the Bacon and Sausage. He checked the chops before heading into the living room and seeing them. As he read, Shizune was smiling. "How's Tsunade?"

Naruto groaned a bit. "She's been out drinking again. She should be in her room in the basement, considering she's not been up since last night." He kept reading, undeterred. "Whatever my mom was thinking, she didn't consider the alcohol bill."

Shizune sighed a bit, rubbing her head. "She's always been a handful, but at least she's loyal and content. Never mess with Red Oni, they will attack any intruder, that is who they are. But Tsunade is a bit too wild to be honest, and she's more of a loner than any kind of family woman."

Naruto rolled his eyes. "That's an understatement." he smiled slightly though. "She's a good person though, in heart. Believe it or not, she's been teaching me how to fight to protect myself. She is the red aunt I never had, and she herself knows she's my aunt in heart, if not in blood."

Shizune smiled at that. "Least you are giving her a chance to be family. Most guys would see any girl like the ones in this house and see sex objects. You don't, which is very good of you."

Naruto chuckled a bit, then groaned. "Yeah, well it doesn't help my case knowing Temari is after me... But still... So, a Nekomata? Why not a Feline, or cat normally?"

Shizune giggled. "Because this one is a rare case. This one is a two tailed cat, a very rare gift among the species. So be sure to take extra-special care of this one."

Naruto sighed heavily but set the paper down, signing it. "Guess it can't be helped. Any info I need? I doubt I can give her the breakfast I am making, right?"

Shizune grabbed a pamphlet on the feline species and gave it to Naruto, who grabbed it as she got her papers back. "Their diet is more fish less fat, but they can still eat meat. Just be careful with the fatty foods, and it will be fine. Lean beef and steaks are OK, but any kind of fish or high protein meal will do."

Naruto stood up and opened the thing. "I see. Thanks, Shizune. Gonna visit me again tomorrow? And when is this girl coming over?"

Shizune smiled as she adjusted her glasses. "She'll arrive in the afternoon, after I file the work. I suggest cleaning up the top floor, Cats are usually creatures of altitude. Know what I mean?" Shizune giggled and went to the door. "Be safe, and watch for falling weight this time!"

Naruto sighed as she left. "I swear, I need to get a safer exercise room." He went back to check the chops and seen them still cooking. "Guess I put them in a little late, oh well. When she's out of the tub I'll get in myself, get ready for the day."

XxX xx XxX

Temari was currently huffing, laying and soaking in the water as she finished her morning delight. She smiled and licked her lips as she grabbed her favorite scrubber. "Not exactly the same, but a good substitute. Now, let's get clean."

It didn't take her too long to soap her body and rinse, cleaning herself with her lavender soap. As she got out she wiggled and shook her body to get the water off her fur, and grabbed a towel to dry her human bits. As she rubbed the towel along her hair she looked at herself. She wasn't very bad looking.

Sure, she wasn't the busty sex symbol most see her kind, those other Canine's and even Felines who were big breasted. But she had a good pair, and her hips were straight and wide off her tight stomach. She was proud of her body, even if it was more athletic than busty.

She grabbed her relax-wear, simple underwear, a black tunic and gold rimmed red vest over it, sliding on a flared skirt to finish it off. She smiled as she tied her hair back into it's spiked pig-tails. It didn't take long after she came out to smell the meal awaiting for her, and she was running down the hall to get to it.

As she slid down the railing of the stairs she seen Naruto setting her plate down. She jumped behind him and grabbed him from behind, pressing herself to him as she grinned. "Breakfast, for me? How sweet! Mmmm, and my favorite too." She licked her lips and her eyes glistened.

Naruto chuckled a bit before lifting a piece of bacon for her to eat. She bit on it and moved around him to sit down and enjoy. "Mmmm, you always make the best bacon! I doubt anyone could make it like you can!"

Naruto turned to walk up the stairs. "Eat up, and enjoy. Also, Shizune the Coordinator came by. We'll be getting a new arrival!"

Temari stopped mid-bite and blinked blankly before looking at Naruto as he walked up. "New arrival? What do you mean?"

Naruto turned to her as he reached the top of the stairs. "She's putting another extra-species girl here to live with us. Some Feline, a Nekomata with two tails. She'll be arriving this afternoon, so be ready, and be polite!" With that, he left for the bathroom.

Temari growled a bit as she chomped her pork chop, nibbling on the bone as she growled lowly. "Great, just as I feel ready to jump him, there's another girl going to be living here. I didn't have to worry about that Oni Tsunade, their practically family, not lovers. Now I gotta deal with a cat? Grrrr, better not be the seductive kind..."

A large red hand grabbed a Chop and a chuckle rang behind her. Temari growled more, her tail flailing behind her in the seat. "You heard nothing, demon!"

Tsunade Smirked wide as her pale pink skin towered the blond wolf, her Kimono top and green jacket resting to cover her enormous bust and slightly ripped up cargo jeans keeping her at least somewhat modest. The horned Oni ate the pork chop in a single bite, tugging the bone clean out. "You know, those cats can be dangerous rivals of love, but that's only if they deem someone worthy of their time. Good luck, Naruto's the kind of boy to care about anyone, so this cat might play around with him a bit."

Temari swiped at Tsunade, who stopped the paw with a single finger. "Naruto's mine! He's not going to fall for some bimbo cat, and you know it!"

Tsunade bellowed as she went to the fridge, tossing the bone into the trash. "Well, you better hope not. He's a healthy 17 year old man, quite handsome too. If I didn't see him as a nephew or god-son, I might even have tried."

Temari ate the rest of her pork chop and was eating her plate clean very fast. Tsunade popped open a large gourd of Sake and looked to Temari. "And getting fat won't help you, so don't be eating too much too fast."

Temari glared daggers at Tsunade and snarled a bit, her fangs clearly visible. "Don't you have a bridge to go under, troll? Or did it burn from your inability to keep sober!"

Tsunade bellowed again before drinking a swig. "Oni don't get drunk, sweetheart. Now be a good girl and clean up your mess. Naruto did ask for you to be ready and polite, you really going to leave a mess and be nasty to someone the program deemed would join us here?"

Temari growled lowly as she watched Tsunade walk off to the back yard, playing limbo with the second floor door and taking a drink. Temari snarled at Tsunade for winking before the door closed and she walked off. "Demon... Ugh, and here I thought today was going to be a GOOD day. My favorite breakfast, Naruto saving me from failure, my move actually working... Now it's ruined thanks to this new girl coming."

Temari wasn't one to get jealous easily, but when it came to two potential mates, the cats of her country took them with a very forward seduction. Temari wasn't all lovey dovey, and wasn't exactly the kind of girl to make a pass unless she was absolutely sure the one she wanted felt the same. Sue was unsure about naruto, even though he was so kind to her.

Regardless of their spats, whatever happened today, she and him got along fairly well. It wasn't until recently she got a bit more rough around the edges of her heart. She may tease once or twice, but she was so unsure it was only for a bit of fun and to gauge his reactions, which he never took her on.

Temari sighed, her ears falling over her face. She started nibbling on her bone. "Guess I have to respect the program... Even though I don't like it." She looked up. "The winds help me, for I am fragile. Please don't let this new girl go after Naruto, and even if she does, please help me gather the courage to show him how I truly feel..."

XxX xx XxX

Tsunade was outside the back yard, drinking a bit as she walked to the shack holding their swimming gear. She ducked in and grabbed her bikini, which was fairly reasonable for her considering it was still a two piece string bikini.

As she got in her bikini she looked inside to see Temari cleaning up through the glass. "A canine and a feline in the same house? I may be an Oni, but that's just Evil, Shizune... You could have given Temari a chance to be closer to Naruto."

She sunk into the sauna first, sighing as she grabbed her drink. "Still, it will be fun to watch my Nephew try and fight off his desires with TWO women trying to be with him. Can't wait for the show."

XxX xx XxX

An hour after Naruto took his shower he got in his jogging gear and seen Temari coming out with her own on. It was basically her metal-bottom sleeve shoes with her silk pants wrapped up at the bottom to keep the bulged out bottoms from making her trip, as well as her golden red lined guardian tunic, with pads on the shoulders and neck. "You want to go out?"

Temari smiled and nodded. "If that doesn't bother you. I kinda like a good jog in the sun you know. Mind if I join you on this one?"

Naruto smiled. He got special permission for her to run whenever she wanted on her own, but it was a strict path close to home. She must be tired of that routine and wanted out further, so she needed to be with him during that. "Sure, just try to keep up."

Temari smirked as she followed him out the door. "I'm the one who should be saying that one!" And with that, she started a fast jog out the door, passing him in seconds. Naruto scoffed and smiled as he picked up the speed of his own jog, keeping up with her.

Temari knew he was able to run as fast as she could, he had very defined leg muscles after all. She smirked behind her. "Come on, a train can move faster than you!" She enjoyed teasing him, and he knew it was just light teasing.

That didn't stop him from getting fired up, and he caught her easily, smirking himself. "Last one to the Ramen shop on the corner down the street buys a quick snack!"

Their neighborhood was a dead end street with a circle road lot, their house was the one at the very end. It was actually private, a house on the hill as it were, and it went down a sloped street to a row of houses. Two blocks away was a park, one Temari never got to see due to her arranged routine just up and down the first block.

Naruto and Temari hit the start of the slope down and started booking it as fats as they could, a dead run down the street. Naruto was pulling ahead slightly, and Temari was smiling as he did. He always could run faster than her, but she had been practicing different techniques to run even faster, and has been trying to get faster.

As she started running lower to the ground, she started passing Naruto, who seen this. "No running on all fours! That's cheating!" It was an unofficial rule of their races, it had to be fair on two legs, not four. Four legged runners like Temari, and even Felines like the Were-cats, were four legged runners, meaning they were faster on four legs than they were on two.

Temari smirked as she kept speeding past. "I'm not! It's still two legs, I'm just closer to the ground!" She was about to sprint to the bottom closing in on her, feeling lucky. Though luck was not on her side, Skill was on Naruto's. He started sprinting a little lower himself, decreasing wind resistance, and passing Temari as they hit the corner.

Thankfully there was NEVER traffic in this block, and even if it did get any it was ten MPH. They were going nearly ten themselves, so they were able to slow down to turn across the street and race forward.

The two managed to keep pace with each other as their destination was right in front of them. A small corner shop for Ramen, as big as one of the buildings, was clear and free for the morning. Temari was tempted to run on her front legs to gain speed, as Naruto was passing her, but she wrapped her hands around her and just groaned in effort as she kicked off the ground as hard and she could, running with all her might. She managed the extra speed to pass naruto and get to the Ramen shop first, tapping the side in front of Naruto.

The problem was, she had to risk her own body to injury from the sudden speed up and dash to the side to just tap the thing. She was highly competitive, because in the Guard she was in with her family, she couldn't be second best.

She slipped and started falling on her back, but was going to also hit the back of her head on the ground. Naruto grabbed her hand and stamped his cleats into the street, the spikes stopping him short as he pulled Temari's torso high enough to not hit the ground.

She did land hard on her ass and skidded a little bit before they were in a dead stop. She looked up to Naruto who was grabbing the side of the building himself, groaning as he finally relaxed.

He stood up straight and helped Temari back on her feet. She blushed dark as she looked down, rubbing the hand naruto held. HE sighed a bit. "You don't have to exert yourself to the point you hurt yourself, you know. I understand you have to be strong for yourself, and your family, but if you get hurt then you do nothing but get weaker from injury."

Temari whimpered a bit, her ears falling over her face. He had a point, but she was still trying to impress him with her skills. Maybe if she did all she could to beat him and show her improvement, she could be a potential mate for him, and not have to be taken from her by a damn cat. "I'm sorry..."

Naruto took her paw in his hand and sighed. "Just promise me I won't be saving you a third time today? I don't have nine lives here, and if I did I'd be on the last one from how many times you scare me to death. I don't want you to get hurt ok?"

Temari nodded and blushed more, her tail swishing from the hand on her paw making her heart beat fast. "Ok. I promise. Sorry..."

Naruto smiled and picked her head back up with a finger on her chin. "Don't worry about it. Now, I do believe you won, so it's on me this time." he smiled wide.

Temari blushed even more but nodded, smiling herself. She backed up and put her hands behind her back. "Let's get inside for a little lunch."

They entered the main room and seen a few people sitting at random tables, but not very many, just four people, one couple. The two came up to the serve-in window table, and sat down, waiting for the one serving to come see them. Temari hummed. "Is it Ayame this time, or her father?"

Naruto hummed in thought. "Well, it's about lunchtime, so I suspect Teuchi will be making his rounds as usual... But Ayame has been worried about her dad so she may be doing it to give him a break."

Temari nodded, seeing what he meant. "So it's anyone who isn't out on errands." Soon enough they seen who it was, as a young human woman came in with more noddles and put them in a big pot that was boiling. "Ah, Ayame!"

The young brunette turned and smiled. "Ah! Naruto, Temari, welcome back. So, come for a bit of lunch? Seems you two are ready for a jog."

Naruto chuckled. "You got us. Yeah, just a bit of a snack to keep our energy up before hitting the park and back. I'm treating Temari here for beating me here in a race."

Ayame smiled at Temari. "Well, seems you're getting better, he beat you three times in a row last time." A small sinister smirk sent a shiver down Temari's spine as Ayame, 'big sister to naruto', appeared in her protective evil form. "Don't be getting hurt or having Naruto hurt, cause that would be very bad news."

The smirk vanished and Ayame turned to get the already done noodles from the pot that had it's timer go off. Temari chuckled nervously. "I did kind of slip after tapping the side of the building, but we're fine. I won't be doing anything to make myself slip again."

Ayame looked at them both. "So, what will you two be having? The usual?" Getting nods she went to the other done pots, pouring a bowl from each before sliding it down to them along the counter. "Miso for Naruto, Beef and Shrimp for Temari."

Naruto gave Temari a pair of sticks as he snapped his open. "Itadakimasu!" With that, they started eating up. Ayame smiled as she started wiping off a few spills in the kitchen.

As she did she smiled. "So, Shizune came in here earlier, said she had a surprise for you Naruto. What's got her so chipper to see you today?"

Naruto chuckled weakly and nervously as Temari just glared at the counter at nothing in particular. Naruto slurped up what was in his mouth and got it down his throat before speaking. "Well, another girl's coming to stay at the house, apparently. My parents never tell me anything anymore."

Ayame hummed at that. "Guess that make sense, they always were sort of distant. Kind of like they were never even in your life to begin with. Still, at least they care enough to give you people to talk to, and you aren't all alone in that giant house on the hill."

Naruto sighed a bit. "I guess, but I would still like if they TOLD me about this before hand. It's hard enough having it dropped on me suddenly."

Temari finished her beef edibles in her bowl and started getting the noddles down. "Least Shizune could have done was tell us we had a potential newcomer to the house a week ago, then we might have had a better preparation. Not only that, but it's a cat girl."

Naruto looked to Temari who slurped her noodles. "What? I don't like Felines... I barely get along with the Sphinx girls who are the other guardians of my country."

Naruto sighed heavily but understood. Cats and Dogs were always at each others throats. He just hoped nothing bad happened in the house with Temari and the new arrival. As they finished, Naruto stretched. "Well, we better be going. We have to take a lap around the park before getting home, and we have to be there to greet our new guest."

Temari stood and smiled, rubbing her paw on Naruto's arm. "I'll be on my best behavior, don't worry. And thanks for treating me, you didn't have to you know."

Naruto smiles brightly. "Hey, I never go back on my word, and I said I would if you won, and you won." he stood and paid for the bowls. "See you later Ayame, don't get overworked!'

Ayame waved as the two started out the door. "Have fun you two, don't get into trouble you hear?" As they left she sighed. "What AM I going to do about Temari. She's too rough for Naruto right now. She seems like a good loyal person to be with him, but if she keeps risking life and limb, hers or his, I might have to make a house call one of these days."

XxX At the House XxX

Tsunade was relaxing on the big rubber raft in the pool when a big shudder sent her tumbling into the pool. As She resurfaced from her big splash she shivered a bit. "I feel like a 'House Call' is coming soon... Whatever has Ayame wanting to come here, I hope it's nothing too dangerous cause I do NOT want to fight that woman."

Tsunade remembered the LAST time Ayame came to give a House Call. She was giving Temari a stern tongue lashing about etiquette unbecoming when she found scratch marks on Naruto.

It was an accident, of course, Temari was in her long Pj's and slipped down the stairs as Naruto was coming up to call her for a late lunch. Naruto caught her on her way down, and as they hit the ground, Temari got her tail sat on under Naruto. Messing with a tail of one of the tailed animals meant watch out, and Temari lashed out. The scratch wasn't deep, but it did draw blood on his arm through his shirt.

Tsunade tried to intervene, and got her ass thrown around the living room by the small human girl. That wasn't the only time, but that was the last time it happened. "Whatever Temari did, it better not be enough for her to yell again...I do NOT want to intervene again... My ass is red from the last time she kicked it, and I'm pinkish to begin with!"

XxX With Temari and Naruto XxX

The two had a great jog, Temari actually had them detour through three trails through the park to explore, cause she never got the chance before. Naruto was happy to oblige her, but it was getting time for the Nekomata to arrive, so they started back.

As they neared the house, they saw a moving van coming up the hill. It wasn't overly large, but it did have a decent size to it. Naruto hummed. "Guess she's here."

Temari looked and sighed. "And I guess I have to go clean up. I'll take the top bathroom ok?" She started up with as much speed as she could, and Naruto followed suit. Just as they got to the house the Van pulled up and into the driveway.

Temari went inside as Naruto stayed out. He seen the driver come out and bring him a clipboard. "Sign here." Naruto did and he whistled before the movers came out the back carrying stuff in. The passenger door opened and around the front came out a young blond with a single ponytail flowing down the middle of her back, a pair of blue tinted blond cat ears on her head.

The woman was slender and had a well developed figure, not busty in any degree anywhere on her body. She wore a black kimono that stopped just below the knees, and under it were some traditional gray pants, two long tails swirling behind her.

She had a serious face on and carrying a single bag in her small cat paws, the cat paws up to her elbows with her feet only being cat-like. She came up to Naruto who bowed gently. "Welcome to my home, I am naruto Uzumaki. May I take your bag for you?"

The woman bowed as well but shook her head. "I'll carry it. Please show me to my room if you will? I'd rather get some rest from my long trip. My name is Yuugito Nii, the Priestess Nekomata of my family. I was sent to help bond Humankind with my own with the exchange of culture."

Naruto smiled. "Sounds like a tough job, but I have faith you will help Extra-Species and Humans connect. Let's get you to an upstairs room." he started walking, Yuugito following him. As they entered they seen a big living room. "This is the main living area, with an open Kitchen in case you want to get something to eat. There's a few rooms, but a Red Oni is living in the biggest one right now, My god-mother slash aunt really."

Yuugito nodded as she looked around. "Very elegant. And a Red Oni is a very good protector of their households, so I feel very safe with them watching the house." She seen Naruto start upstairs and followed, some of the movers following as well.

Naruto decided to pick the room immediately, so the tour could wait when Yuugito was rested. He looked to her. "There's two rooms up here that are free. Which kind of room would you prefer?"

Yuugito looked at the first and hummed. It didn't have more than a single window, and it was along the back of the house. It did have a door to a balcony, but it wasn't open or letting light in. She smiled. "This one will do. I don't need very much light, and I prefer a bit darker. Besides, a view of a forest is comforting."

Naruto nodded and pointed to the room for the movers. Yuugito set her bag in the closet, which was a walk in, and came out to allow the movers to put her stuff inside. Naruto looked to Yuugito. "There's two bathrooms up here, one's just a simple three piece, but an en suite is down the hall."

Yuugito bowed to Naruto. "Thank you, Naruto. I am sure I will be using the En Suite often." She smiled. "And when I get my stuff unpacked, I will be washing up before bed. Mind if I ask for you to bring me some Tuna salad and salmon?"

Naruto hummed a bit. "I don't have any Salmon, but I will get some in town later today. Is just Tuna Salad alright for now? Tomorrow you can tell me your preferred dishes, and I'll see if I can't get some ready for the next few days."

Yuugito bowed. "That will be fine, thank you. Do you have dogs? I am not fond of them, and I smell a faint bit of a dog in the house."

Naruto chuckled nervously but nodded. "Well, not a dog per-say. There's an Anubis Wolf who is also a resident here, so don't fret. Please get along with her, I know the Feline and Canine way of fighting each other, but I'd rather we all got along."

Yuugito took a deep breath as the last of her things came in. "I cannot make any promises about being nice to a savage. The Anubis may be guardians, but they are still dogs. If the Anubis wishes to be nice, then I will try to withhold my distaste for her. However, I will not attempt to become friends with such a beast."

She went into her room and grabbed the door. "Thank you, and I will be preparing for my bath. Please, let me know when the food is ready?" Naruto nodded and she closed the door. "Thank you."

Naruto sighed heavily and started down the hall. "This is going to be a disaster... Thanks Shizune, putting a cat and dog in my house, both not fond of the other, and Temari's not exactly one to hide her emotions. Hope they can at least stay civil here..."

With that, he went down to make the Tuna Salad, wishing he could take a shower.

Aaaaand there we go. Hope you all enjoyed as I gave Temari a bigger spotlight here, shown more of their development, and not to mention adding one of the girls YOU all voted for. Hope you enjoyed, and have a great day.

OH and to make this a fair even addition of girls, each addition will have three chapters to grow until the next arrives. I don't know when I will be updating again, but I will try to keep this updated whenever possible.
