Declaimer: I don't own Naruto

A gentle breeze passed through the area, only the sound of leaves hitting the ground coming out. All eyes were on the cloaked man, processing what he just said. "Excuse me." Maya said, blinking, wondering if she heard him correctly. "What did you just say?"

Homura looked at her, tilting his head at the shorter woman. "I said he is mute." Homura said again. "He has lost the ability to make any sounds come from his mouth. His vocal cords are damaged. Is that good enough for you to understand?" Maya narrowed her eyes dangerously, not liking how he was talking. "But I know what he thinks."

"Oh? So you are a mind reader?" Hideo asked, skeptical.

Homura looked at him, thinking about it. "You can say that." Homura said, nodding. "But only his mind. So don't worry. I can't probe your mind for all your undoubtedly lame and uninteresting secrets and fantasies." Homura grinned at that, feeling his point was made in an awesomely insulting way.

"And why should we believe you?" Aya asked, not really trying to hide the disbelief in her voice.

Homura looked at her, pouting. "Aw, but Aya-chan, I have done nothing to deserve such distrust." He said, playfully. The pout left his face and he gave her a blank stare. "Truthfully, I could care less if you do. The fact stands that he's unable to speak."

Aya stared at him, her eyes narrowing in suspicion. "How did you know my name?"

Homura blinked, smiling arrogantly. "I know all of your names." He pointed at Maya, "She's Maya, Natsume," Then at the black haired man. "Shikamaru, Nara," His hand moved to Hideo a few second afterward. "Hideo, Hisoka." Homura's hand moved from him to Aya; pointing directly at her chest. "And you are Aya, Natsume."

His hand dropped and he glanced up. "But I didn't answer your question did I." Before anybody could answer, the man looked back at Naruto. "Hush, Naruto. Go play with Yoruichi." He waved him off, lightly pushing his back. He turned back, coming face to face with three disbelieving stares. "Anyway, Naruto's true answer was, and I quote, "I will not interfere in a fight that does not concern me." So, yeah." Homura said, shrugging.

"Does not concern him?" Hideo repeated angrily. "After everything you've done? You pretty much hindered us! You bastard!" Hideo's shout echoed through the forest, birds in the vicinity taking flight. In the next second, a fist crashed right into the side of his cheek, sending him straight to the ground. A grunt left Hideo's mouth, and his three comrades stared at him. They looked at the extended arm that put him on the ground, before narrowing their eyes. Maya and Aya quickly jumped back, Aya drawing her sword. Maya's right hand went to her wrist and in a puff of smoke; a long nodachi appeared in her right hand.

Homura only gave them a glance before looking back at Hideo, who was now rubbing his face. "There are two things you will memorize." He said, calmly, his voice a normal volume. "The first is simple, when speaking to us; you will keep your voice as loud as mine or lower." Homura's hand dropped and Hideo could see a red glow from his eyes. "And the second, you will never insult Naruto in my presence." His eyes scanned everyone else. "This will be my only warning; the second will cost you your tongue." Homura turned around; walking over to the sword he dropped.

Shikamaru hummed looking at his two still standing teammates. "Sheath your blades." He said before taking two steps forward. Maya and Aya looked at him, Aya complying quickly. Maya growled a bit looking at Hideo and then to Homura. She stood down, letting the sword tip rest against the ground. Naruto seemed to be watching intently, Yoruichi by his side. "Sorry about him..." Shikamaru paused, realizing he didn't ask for his name. Homura grabbed his sword before looking back at the man.

"Homura. Homura, Kazama" He finished. Shikamaru nodded, writing the name to his memory banks.

"My teammate, most of them are a bit hot headed." He finished.

"I know." Homura said turning to the man. "I've been informed about those two," he glanced at Maya and Aya to show who he meant. "I got quite a bit on you and a little bit of info on him. So it's alright. I figured I would have to punch him."

Shikamaru nodded, glancing at Naruto. "But I regret to say, we can't leave without Naruto." Shikamaru said. Homura tilted his head a little grinning.

"Heh, you are starting to sound like Itachi." The cloaked man said. Shikamaru immediately picked up on what that meant but could not back down.

"Sorry if I do, but because of our mission's perimeter, we cannot return unless we have Naruto." Shikamaru explained, calmly. Homura hummed at that, calling it a bluff.

"Does Tsunade really have the man power to throw away like this?" He asked, tilting his head with a smirk.

"Using her words, "We need him; there is no other option at this point. If you can't bring him back, then don't come back. This is an order." Shikamaru recited. "But knowing her personality, I think she meant to follow him if he doesn't return." The smirk left Homura's face and he turned quickly looking at Naruto.

"What the fuck do you mean that sounds like her?" Homura asked his voice slightly elevated. Naruto stared at him, with his eye lids lowered, for a few second and Homura scratched his cheek, a little nervous. "Oh sorry, I meant, what do you mean that sounds like her."

Naruto's expression changed quickly, to a thoughtful one, his arms crossing. "You didn't inform me of such." Homura said. Naruto shrugged, his mouth turning into an awkward grin. "That is some stupid reasoning." Homura let out a sigh turning back to them.

"So you see our plight?" Shikamaru asked. The cloaked man crossed his arms, looking at the ground. He hummed a few things crossing his mind. He could kill them, but Naruto would undoubtedly stop him. Run away, but then again, having them looking all around, calling out Naruto, would bring negative attention to him. Not good. There was no good side to this. The only thing to do would be to accompany them back to Konoha and then leave. Fuck….they didn't have long before they had to return home too.

Homura's arms dropped, a loud annoyed sigh leaving his mouth. "The answer is no," He said. Shikamaru seemed unfazed by this. "But it seems like we have no choice but to return to Konoha with you to relay the answer." At that Yoruichi appeared in front of him. His eyes came to her before she grabbed his arm.

"Excuse me for a sec." She said looking back at the ninja. She pulled Homura away from them, in the process grabbing Naruto's arms. She dragged them a good distance from the ninja before releasing Homura. "What the hell are you agreeing to?" Yoruichi asked her voice hushed.

"The least harmful path." Homura replied.

"Least harmful? Don't you understand how drastically this would cut into my Naruto love time?" She asked. Both Naruto and Homura looked at her, a huge smile appearing on the blonde's face.

"Shut up. This is partly your fault." Homura scolded. Naruto looked at him, an expression of mortification on his face.

"Don't blame him. It's your fault for entertaining them." Yoruichi said, scolding him.

"They're ninja from his home." Homura retorted, pointing at Naruto.

"He's been banished remember….And you're going to have to tell me about that." Yoruichi said.

"Later." He replied dismissingly. "Do you have any plans to get rid of them?" He asked, his eyes going from the blonde to the golden eyed beauty?

"We could run. I think we are faster." Yoruichi suggested.

"Alright. "Hey, have you seen Naruto Uzumaki? Yeah we are Ninja from Konoha, he used to be one too." How does that sound to you?" He asked. Yoruichi thought about it before letting out a sigh. Homura looked at Naruto before nodding.

"Look we don't have a choice. Unless you want to kill them?" Homura asked. Naruto frowned shaking his head. "Then we are agreed." Naruto continued to stare at him, his face expression unease.

"Ugh!" Yoruichi let out. "I'm so not going to like this." Homura shrugged handing Naruto the nodachi. Naruto looked at it before putting fixing it to the strap on his back.

"You don't have to. Besides….who said you're coming?" he asked. Yoruichi perked up, disbelief written on her face.

"What do you mean, I'm not coming?" She let out. Homura turned away from her walking to the ninja.

"Later." Homura responded. He walked up to ninja letting out a sigh. "Listen Shikamaru." He said crossing his arms once again. "Like I said a few minutes ago, we'll head back with you, but we aren't staying to help."

Shikamaru nodded, mission accomplished, now to convince him to help. Shikamaru looked at Hideo, who was now standing, nursing his cheek. He was lucky Maya and Hideo didn't mess this up. But now he had to alert the second team. "We will have to make a stop though." Homura said.

"How long of a stop?" Hideo asked. Homura shrugged looking at the man.

"Wish I could say. But certain problems may come up." The cloaked man said. Naruto walked up to his side still frowning. Homura's eyes came to him before sighing. "Come on Naruto. What, it should take us a day? Day in a half? We hear what she has to say. Give your answer, listen to her try and convince you before you say it again. Then we leave. Most likely it would take two days tops. And if somebody keeps their mouth shut!" He shouted the last part glancing at Yoruichi. She stuck her tongue out at him and he paid her no mind. "We could be back here nobody would be any wiser." Homura said as Naruto stared at him.

'But it's at least a week's trip….' Aya thought raising an eyebrow. Naruto's eyes closed and he looked away, off into the distance.

"We got at least," Homura paused looking up. His head bobbed a bit before he looked back at Naruto. "A month left anyway. This could be our extreme, risky action for this time." Homura said elbowing him playfully. Naruto gritted his teeth seemingly in pain. "And think about all the people you haven't been able to see in the past seven years. Sora, Inari, Rei, Yamamoto, Fu, etc., etc., etc." Homura grinned, his temptation was perfect. Naruto still looked against this; his eyes squinted like a foxes. "We can stop by to see Izumi. You know how she would love to see you again."

Naruto's head dropped in defeat and Homura turned back to them. "Now, shall we get going?" He asked. Shikamaru answered with a nod.

"Where is this place you want to stop at?" Shikamaru asked.

"It's actually not that far. Maybe a few miles." Homura said. "It shouldn't take too long."

"Oh what direction is it in?" Maya asked her arms crossed.

"Just follow us…We'll lead the way." Homura said turning. He caught Naruto patting Yoruichi's head before he nodded at him. "Let's get going."

With that said. Naruto's group of three turned, before heading to the east. They began walking, the four ninja following behind them, just in ear shot range. "The place we are heading is called Gekkou village." He said. "It's a mid-sized village. It has an ok population; almost all of the residents know each other by name." He said.

Aya stared at the man, her hands in her pockets. 'So, pretty much we don't have to try hard to stand out is what you are saying.' Aya thought. Her eyes moved to the blonde of the group and she narrowed her eyes a bit. 'Like hell I'm going to believe he can't talk.'

"So…Kazama-san… How did you three meet?" Aya asked, a disarming smile coming to her face. Homura looked back at her giving her a smile. He turned around, beginning to walk backward.

"Ah! Aya-chan, I can't have you calling me by my last name." Homura said, joyfully, crossing his arm. He moved his right arm out and pointed at her. "Call me, Homura-kun, or Homura-nichan." Homura smiled brightly nodding his head. "Yeah, yeah Homura-nichan has a nice ring to it."

Everyone looked at him, all giving him an odd look save Naruto, who only smirked. "Kazama-san I.."

"Ah!" Homura interrupted. "Homura-nichan."

"You sound like you have a sister fetish." Yoruichi said. Homura looked at her with a frown.

"Hey, just because I care for my sister, a lot, doesn't mean it's a fetish." Homura commented. Yoruichi stared, her face blank.

"Oh and I bet the thought of miss big boobs calling you 'Ni-chan, Ni-chan' doesn't give you a raging hard on." The golden eyed beauty remarked, sarcastically. Maya and Aya's eyes went to her, the latter of the two looking down at her chest.

'Miss….big boobs?' She thought, slightly insulted by the name. Homura looked at Yoruichi humming, a huge smirk coming on his face.

"But of course Yoru-chan, why do you think I have this cloak on. It hides the untamable, beast within." Homura said. Aya and Yoruichi both shared a disgusted look; Naruto on the other hand looked to be laughing. "I know. That was an excellent comeback."

"The fuck it was." Yoruichi retorted. As soon as she finished the line Naruto's hand came down, striking the tip of her nose. Her eyes widen slightly at the sudden, unseen motion. Her right hand came to her nose. He gave her a slight glare and she nodded looking ahead.

"Ah ha! You got scolded." Homura gloated. Naruto looked at him and his eyes went to the group of ninja.

"Um…about my question." Aya asked. Homura smiled at her humming.

"First call me Homura-niichan." Homura said. She only stared, slightly shocked. "Come on, Homura-nichan. Say it."

"She's not calling you that." Maya interjected quickly. This earned her a slight glare from the girl, though she didn't notice it.

"Ah, Maya-chan, don't worry. You can call me that too. Don't want you to feel left out now." Homura said. Maya's head only tilted a bit, her eyes narrowing at the man.

"I only had one brother, and he wasn't you." She said. Homura nodded, turning around. It was a wonder how he didn't trip or hit anything.

"I know, Naruto killed that one, horribly, if I remember correctly." Homura said. He chuckled underneath his breath, earning a growl from behind him. "Oooooh! The silver kitty sounds angry, I want to play." At that moment Naruto's elbow found its way into his side. His body jerked a bit before he looked at the man. "Alright, alright. I'll lay off them."

Homura turned back looking at Maya. Her scowl made him smile and his eyes moved over to her cousin. "Ah! Your question." He said. The man hummed, looking forward. He looked up at the sky for a moment a grin appearing on his face. "Well it's quite personal. But I wouldn't mind telling you." Homura stretched his arms around, his hands interlaced and his palms out.

"I met young master Naruto a few years ago, maybe six. Give or take a year." Homura started. "I was working at a hotel at the time. Beautiful place, you should visit. My younger sister brought him in, late at night. Pretty cool day. He was sleeping out from what she told me. He saved her from somebody. But I couldn't really say. She was pretty drunk…" Homura stopped at that giving Naruto a stare. Naruto glanced back at him, narrowing his eyes a bit. "Fine, fine. Spoil sport." Homura lifted his arms up, putting them behind his head. "Anyway, that's basically how we met. My sister put in a good word for him." He looked over at Yoruichi and grinned evilly. "Now Yoruichi on the other hand, we met her on our travels. She was…"

"Homura, I would appreciate if you don't tell them about how we met." She said.

"Ah, but Yoru-chan, it's such a good story." Homura said.

"For you. That was an embarrassing and annoying moment." The golden eyed speedster said, crossing her arm. "The only good thing about it was that I met Naruto-kun."

"So doesn't that make it a good experience?" Homura asked, smiling happily.

"It doesn't matter." She growled. "Besides, it's not like we'll be together long enough for them to care."

"How do you know?" He asked. Yoruichi looked at him like he was stupid before shaking her head.

"Well one, you are dropping me off, so we won't be talking much. Two, you aren't staying that long in konoha anyway." Yoruichi said. Homura nodded smiling.

"But you never know Naruto might have a change of heart." Homura said knowingly. "Or one of them may decide to stay with him." Homura said. He sent a look back, his eyes moving to both girls. Yoruichi and Naruto stared at him with a raised eyebrow.

"Ok, ok, I was just saying...the future is not predictable." Homura said, his hands rose in his defense.

"That might be, but there are things that are impossible." Yoruichi said, looking away from him.

"Oh? Can you really believe that?" The cloaked man asked, grinning.

"Whatever." She replied dismissingly.

"Heh!" He let out. Looking back at Aya, the man gave her a regretful smile. "Sorry Aya-chan, but it seems that is all I can tell you." The brunette nodded wondering if she should believe him.

"Was he still talking at that time?" Maya asked. Homura looked at her, humming.

"Yeah." Homura looked at Naruto glaring. "How do you think he SEDUCED MY SISTER!" His accusation was accompanied by a condemning finger. Naruto glared at him fiercely stopping in his tracks. This caused everyone else to as well, staring at the man.

"Wait….Naruto seduces people?" Yoruichi asked surprised.

"Yes! This bastard had the nerve to put the moves on my cute, innocent sister." Homura let out angrily. Naruto raised his right hand, only his index finger extended. He pointed at the man scowling. "Oh! That's what they all say. The fact is she was drunk." Naruto's hand palmed his face, his head leaning back. He wiped his face, looking back at the man. "Oh, yes she was. She was slurring and everything." Naruto's hands clenched tightly, his right eye twitching. "Likely story. She wouldn't have been all over you if that's the case."

Naruto gave his friend a blank look and the man jumped slightly. "Ok, ok, ok. I'm only joking. Don't get all serious with me." Homura said. Naruto sighed shaking his head before walking forward. Homura followed him quickly, putting his arm around his shoulder. "Come on man, don't be angry."

"Sometimes I wonder." Yoruichi said, before walking after them.

"He's quite the playful one, it seems." Maya said.

"Yeah….it unsettling." Hideo said.

"Troublesome." Shikamaru mumbled. He began walking after them, his teammates following along.

An hour passed fairly quickly, the only real noise being cause was the banter between Yoruichi and Homura. Naruto seemed to be in the thick of things, the cloaked man using him as his source of entertainment. Three of the ninja, couldn't help but stare at Naruto, the thought of his muteness settling in their minds. "Do you guys really believe he can't talk?" Hideo asked, his voice a whisper.

"Not for a second." Maya replied.

"I have a hard time believing it as well." Aya interjected.

"It's not that hard to believe." Shikamaru said. He blew out smoke looking at his team before looking at Naruto.

"Care to give reasons." Maya said. "And can you please stop smoking." Shikamaru looked at her before sighing.

"Troublesome woman." He mumbled removing the stick from his mouth. He put it out and placed it someplace safe for later. "Think about how many people have been after him since he was a kid. From Akatsuki, rock and lighting missing nin and current ninja, samurai from the land of Iron and random warriors who for some reason was attracted to his declaration of being the strongest and wanting to test that." Shikamaru started. His moved his hands into his pockets, sighing "And ninja from our own village." Shikamaru fought hard against grabbing another cigarette. "Well, that's all we know about. But it's easy to believe that one of them managed to do something to him to insure he couldn't speak."

"Naruto was always good at fending off attacks." Maya said, narrowing her eyes. She didn't know about all that. "And his healing is greater than normal people, maybe three to four times that by the time he left. Somebody inflicting a physical wound to him doesn't seem like it would work. And Naruto mental defenses are…. Almost indestructible." She took on a thoughtful expression, before something clicked in her mind. "Even when Anko put us through genjutsu training with Kurenai, Naruto was able to break through her illusion with no mental stress."

"That might be so. But there is a difference from back then and now." Shikamaru said. "Looking at his two companions, the strength level of them compared to us is vastly different."

"What!" Hideo let out as quietly as possible. "I bet we could take them."

"You can try if you want, but I know what I'm capable of. And the girl alone would be able to tear me a new one." He said. "I'm not sure how much you three saw, but her speed is not something to underestimate. Homura made the comment that he taught her it. So if he knows the completed version of the move, then he's probably faster than her" Unknowingly a small smile appeared on his face. "And considering how he listens and defends Naruto, I'm almost positive Naruto's the strongest out of the three."

"What does this have to do with Naruto losing his voice?" Aya asked. Shikamaru looked at her before looking at the blonde.

"When we use to talk and train, I would always ask why he was pushing me so hard. He would always reply, to become stronger than one is, a stronger opposition is needed. So this question comes up, if they are this strong, what or who pushed them to this level?" Shikamaru said. All three of them looked from the smoker to the blonde, the question going through each of their minds

Ahead of them the three were having their own conversation. "I don't think that is true, that seems made up." Yoruichi said.

"That may be but this guy actually said so. He was like 'the sage was more than what we could call human' and expected us to buy it. I was all like, take that shit and shove it up your ass." Homura said. A second later Naruto's fist tapped him on the head. "Ouch!" he rubbed his head looking at Naruto. "And at that time Naruto wasn't such a prude."

Naruto gave him a stare with a slight frown. "Yeah, but she's not here right now is she?" He asked. After a moment Homura looked up, sheepishly. "True, habits are hard to break."

"So what happened afterward? And when did this actually happen?" Yoruichi asked. Homura looked at her and smiled.

"Well, this happened just about two years ago. Six months shy of meeting you." Homura replied. "And what happened next, well that's for another time." Homura said, mysteriously.

"Come on, we have time." Yoruichi said, urging for him to continue.

"Maybe, but it wouldn't be good to find all the information out first go around." Homura replied.

"First go around? I've been asking questions since I joined you guys." Yoruichi retorted.

"Yeah, but you need just about a two year minimum time frame to be able to get all the answers." Homura said. "Right Naruto?" He looked at Naruto. Naruto looked at him and seemed to think about it for a moment. Homura on the other hand frowned. His pupils were narrowed into slits, which wasn't a good sign. "Naruto, are you feeling alright?" Homura raised his right hand as he said this, rubbing his eye. Naruto blinked before his eyes widen a bit. He blinked a couple of times and frowned. He raised his free hand up and grabbed his hood. He pulled it over his head, positioning it so his eyes and cheeks was hidden in shadow and looked ahead.

"What's the matter?" Yoruichi asked, her eyes going from Naruto to Homura. Homura looked at her and smiled.

"Nothing much. Just remembered we have to deliver the sword to you know who." Homura said.

"Oh….Oh yeah….But wasn't that like a few months ago?" Yoruichi asked. Homura stared at her, Naruto deciding to look also. They both looked at each other, both of their mouths wide open.

"How did you forget!?" Homura shouted. Naruto shrugged quickly, his body fidgeting. "You have it. Damn, um…." Homura let out before looking behind him. "You four, we are going to need to rush." Homura said.

"That's fine with us." Shikamaru replied quickly. Maya glanced at him before looking at Homura.

"Any reason why?" She asked. Homura tilted his head, staring at her oddly.

"I figured, since you guy are in a war and everything, we should speed this up." He replied.

"As true as that is…Why didn't you say that an hour ago?" Hideo asked, his eyes narrowed in suspicion.

"You ask too many questions. Now come on" He said, turning his head forward. Shikamaru sighed at his team, he didn't know why but he felt this has exceeded his level of tolerable trouble. He watched ahead as all three of them dashed forward. He and his team opted to jump into trees; it would be easier to follow them that way. Shikamaru looked into the sky, noticing it was multiple colors. He hoped they reached it soon; it was going to be dark soon.

It took only ten minutes before for them to into sight range of an expansive village. From what everyone could see, the village was fairly lit. The thunderous roars of drums could be heard, even at the distance they were. It seemed like there was a festival going on. They weren't that far off from it when the small group of three slowed to a stop. Shikamaru signaled everyone else to drop down, before doing said action.

Landing a meter behind Naruto, the ninja stepped forward. "Here we are; Gekkou village. Home, sweet home." Homura said calmly. Even with the cloak on it was easy to see his body become less rigid and more relaxed.

"So we are back." Yoruichi said, a sigh leaving her mouth a second later. "And thus our journey has come to an end."

"All journeys have an end. And that end is what makes the journey so much more enjoyable." Homura said. Yoruichi looked at him, raising an eyebrow. She saw his hand pointing at Naruto and smiled.

"What's going on in the village? And why did we stop here?" Hideo asked. Homura looked back at him humming a bit.

"A spring festival is going on. It happens the first week of spring." Homura explained. "And why we stopped." Homura paused, a small grin appearing on his face. "Because I felt like it."

"What?" Hideo growled. The man was really annoying him. Homura waved him off, turning to face Naruto.

"This might take a little bit. You two should go ahead. We'll catch up." Homura said. Yoruichi blinked, a joyful smile coming on her face a second later.

"So you mean..."

"Yes, you will get to be alone with Naruto for a while." He finished. "If you want, go enjoy the festival until I come." He said.

"Yes!" Yoruichi cheered, pumping her hand. She hooked her arm around Naruto's before dragging him off.

"Wait." Maya voiced out. "Enjoy the festival? Is that why we are here?" Homura raised an eyebrow at her, a huge grin coming on his face.

"Is that a sign that you want to go?" He asked. Maya's eyes narrowed, her arms crossing.

"Why would I want to go with you?" She asked. His grin changed to a smirk.

"I never said anything about going with me." He commented. Maya's eyes twitched, she walked in to that. "But if you want to, I wouldn't mind. When Naruto described you and Aya-chan, he was completely right. His words could do no justice to how beautiful you two are." Aya and Maya both narrowed their eyes a bit.

"Am I supposed to be flattered by that?" The blue eyed woman asked, disgust filling her words. Homura chuckled at that.

"You don't have to." He said. "Now back to the current situation." Homura clapped his hands, smiling at the four. "You four will need to change out of those outfits." Homura said. He looked over each of them, his eyes falling on Maya. "Especially you." He said pointing at Maya.

"What? Why?" Maya and Hideo asked.

"Make sure you take off your forehead protectors and your kunai holsters. Flak jackets must come off also." Homura continued, paying no attention to their question. "You can hold on to your sword if you need to" He looked at Aya as he said this.

"I see. You are trying to hide our identities as ninja." Aya said, curiously. Homura smiled at her, glad she caught on.

"As perceptive as I heard." Homura said. Shikamaru hummed, thinking about it. He found no reason for not applying, but he wanted to know why it was a problem.

"I'm not changing." Hideo said. "I feel no need to hide ourselves from anybody." His defiant stance was met with a knowing and joyful smirk from Homura. That smirk soon faded though, being replaced by a frown.

A sigh left his mouth, the man deciding to lean on a nearby tree. "If you would, can you explain to us the significant of hiding ourselves?" This time it was Shikamaru. Homura eyes went to him and another sigh left his mouth.

"Since you asked nicely, I'll tell you." Homura said, crossing his arms. "This place is special." The man turned a bit, his eyes looking at the village. "Really special. But as you can probably guess, special areas usually contain an abnormal amount of danger." Looking back at them, the man tapped his foot on the ground. "I believe you noticed the lack of Ninja in the area. Though we are not that far from your homeland, we know about your society." Homura hummed a bit. "I won't bore you with a slight history lesson, but the people here detest ninja, this generation more than any other. And because of that all ninja are seen as a threat that must be eliminated."

"But we walked through quite a few villages. Nobody has attacked us or anything." Aya replied.

"And you are very lucky for that. The people around don't know what to look for. Even though you broadcast it with those head bands, the people have yet to actually see ninja with them on. But there are a select few who do and they are experts at handling ninja." Homura explained. "This village is different, these people know visibly what to look for, and the select few that I mentioned, call this place home."

"Wouldn't being with you counteract that?" Maya asked, raising an eyebrow. "From the way you sound, you have some pull with these people right?"

Homura tilted his head at her, giving an awkward smile. "Um….yeah." He stopped looking to the side. "I could but do you think it will happen with you dressing up like that. To them it would be a direct insult. They wouldn't even give me a chance to explain. The only one who could possibly protect you is Naruto." Homura said. He laughed a little at that. "But…yeah…that's not happening."

"So, we will just explain to them that we mean no harm." Hideo said. Homura laughed again.

"Ah, funny. You think you are going live long enough to actually explain?" He said. "Wow, you guys are conceited as fuck."

Maya narrowed her eyes once more; his jovial tone was getting annoying. "We can take care of ourselves."

Homura stared at her blankly. "Heh! Obviously you can't, because if you could, you wouldn't be here trying to acquire Naruto's help in your little ninja games."

Hideo and Maya glared hard at the man, they were ready to test just how strong this man was. Aya on the other hand watched him with unbiased eyes.

"Do I need to just take off my forehead protector and pouch?" She asked. Homura looked at her smiling, while Maya and Hideo stared at her shocked. Taking a gander at her clothing, he hummed.

"Yeah, only that. Out of everyone here you have the most casual clothes on." Homura said nodding. "But if you want to change into a kimono, or Yukata I won't mind." He said, winking at her. She began taking off her head band, ignoring the wink.

"Why are you given in to him?" Hideo asked quickly.

"Because, it's obvious that he's trying to help us as much as possible, without forcing us. Also at this moment he is our only link to communicate with Naruto." Aya said removing her headband. "And taking his stance, he isn't going to let us enter the village like this. And I prefer sleeping inside." Aya placed her protector in her kunai pouch on her waist before undoing it.

"She's right. Other than that, we are here solely to bring Naruto back. Causing an uproar would go against our mission objective." Shikamaru said.

"Oh yeah, because if I decided to let you go inside, even if you do survive, Naruto will no longer be able to go with you." Homura said, nodding.

"I don't like this." Hideo said.

"Hideo…Change." Shikamaru ordered, his eyes narrowed fiercely. Hideo narrowed his eyes in defiance, a frown on his face. After a moment he turned away.

"Tch. Fine." He muttered.

"I can see why Naruto viewed you as his best friend." Homura said. The four looked at him, as the man turned away. "If you all would, seal your kunai pouches into scrolls, I'll hold onto them until I'm sure you won't be harmed."

Naruto walked on the left side of Yoruichi, watching the decorations of the village. The buildings were similar to the other villages. Thick strings stretched from high above shop signs, to poles and building signs on the opposite side of the path. Paper lanterns, of a variety of colors, hung from the strings, lightning up the trail perfectly. The chatter of the jovial folks, was nearly completely drowned out by the ear deafening drums that played towards the center of the village. Food, gift, and game stands were set up evenly spanning down the road. Dragon decorations were set up on some of the shops, as well as paper charms.

Hordes of civilians littered the streets, all dressed in Yukata and kimono. Young kids ran around, playing with noise makers, mask covering their faces. He could see quite a few people, playing around at the game stalls. There were a lot more people here than the blonde remembered. They must be from neighboring villages. It made the road crowded, but Naruto didn't mind it much. He actually liked it.

Looking at Yoruichi, who was looking for a stall with the shortest line, the blonde could only smile. "Oooh! Let's play that one." Yoruichi excited voice reached him. He managed to take a brief glance before he was pulled towards the game stand. A variety of scents entered his nostrils, the mostly those of the food spots nearby. He hummed thinking about grabbing something to eat when Homura came.

He looked ahead, feeling Yoruichi's arm leave his. They were now in front of a stand; a wide wooden fish tank on the ground in the front. A middle aged man, sat on the ground behind it. He was fit; his hair greying a bit. His brown eyes are narrowed a bit, his sight being locked on the two in front of him. His tan shirt stretched a bit as the leaned forward, a wide smile on his face. "Why hello, Yoruichi-san. How have you been?" He asked.

"Ah! I'm surprised you remember my name." She said

"Ah, how could I forget? You are the newest face here now." He said.

"That's true." She said. "Hmmm…Sorry but I'm not sure if I know your name." The golden eyes woman rubbed her head a nervous smile on her face.

"No need to apologize, you probably don't know half of the people here." He said. She nodded at that her hand coming down. "Mitsoru, Adachi."

"Mitsoru, Adachi. Got it. I'll remember it." She said nodding. He smiled, his eyes going to Naruto.

"Ah! Sorry Homura-sama, you are so quiet tonight." Mitsoru said. Naruto smiled at him, waving his hand.

"Um, that's not…" Yoruichi stopped, his hand touching her side. Looking back at Naruto, she figured he wanted to stay hidden. "Never mind. So, how much to catch one?" She asked looking back at Mitsoru.

"It cost $8 dollars, but for you…" He paused leaning forward. "I'll let you do it for $3.50." Yoruichi smiled at him nodding.

Naruto walked forward, holding out a ten. The vendor took the bill before digging in his pocket for change. Naruto waved at him, stopping him. "Alright. Now here you go." He took out three paddles and a bowl and handed it to the blonde. Naruto smiled at him, taking them before giving one to Yoruichi.

"Thank you." She said, grabbing one. Crouching down, both of the looked over the fishing tank. He noticed it was separated into three seconds. He could tell each one held water of a different temperature. He could see quite a few rare fish, a butterfly fish and pygmy angel fish being among the few. Naruto nodded, smiling, he was surprise there was a few left.

"I'll go first." Yoruichi said. Moving the paddle scooper over the water, the woman prepared to capture a goldfish. They were the smaller of the fish, and looked to weigh the least.

Naruto watched as she slowly move her hand down, calculating when to strike. He smiled brightly, it wasn't that hard of a game, but she looked so serious. He watched her hand lash out, not too quickly, but not slow either. She managed to get her chosen fish, and lifted the wet paddle out of the water. Yoruichi was about to put it in her bowl, but the fish thought it was the right time to dive through the paddle. The woman hissed in despair, looking through the ripped paper. Naruto held back a slightly laugh.

"Good try." Mitsoru said. Naruto nodded in agreement, holding out another paddle. Yoruichi grabbed it from him taking a deep breath.

"I got it this time." She said.

Watching her fail once more, Naruto smiled, looking away. Figuring this would take a while, Naruto gave the man another ten, and in return getting three paddles. Five minutes passed by quickly, Yoruichi failing over fifteen times. "I hate these things." Yoruichi let out. Naruto smiled at her before looking at the man. Giving him a five, he received two more paddles.

Naruto put one of the paddles in Yoruichi's hand and she looked at him. He looked over the fish tank, deciding to take his turn. He found the fish he wanted, the rare butterfly fish. He watched as it moved, positioning the bowl near the water. Naruto's hand dived down, the paddle dipping in the water. With a light smack, the fish flew up from the water, into the bowl. Naruto smiled at the girl, as the man clapped behind the tank. "Pretty good Homura. I didn't think you could do this." Mitsoru said

Naruto looked up at him and grinned sheepishly. It took years of practice. Naruto handed him the bowl and watched him put it in a bag of water. Naruto looked at Yoruichi, who had a pout on her face. Naruto motioned his hand for her to try again. She hummed deciding to do it, using Naruto's technique. She took another deep breath, preparing herself. Moving her hand down, she tried to get another goldfish. Moving quickly she ducked her paddle under the water. She smacked the fish, only to watch the paddle break. She raised the paddle and let out a sigh. "Man…this is hard." She said.

Naruto covered his mouth, imitating a laugh. Yoruichi elbowed him, slightly peeved at her inability to capture a fish. She watched as Naruto was handed the fish in a bag and looked at Mitsoru. "Thanks for letting us play." She said.

"Oh no problem, Yoruichi-san. Sorry you couldn't win anything." He replied.

"Oh no problem. I was never good with this." She said, a sheepish smile on herface.

"Well, practice make perfect." He said. Yoruichi nodded, the two of them standing. Naruto waved at the man, and he waved back. "Enjoy the festival." He said.

"Thank you. I hope you have a good night." Yoruichi replied with a wave. The two walked away, Naruto handing Yoruichi the fish. Looking at him, the woman smiled. "Thanks." She said. She grabbed Naruto's arm, and leaned up against him. Even if he couldn't talk, she would make a good impression on him.

Homura looked at the decorations with a smile on his face. "They really out did it this year." he said. Aya looked at him before briefly looking at the decorations.

"Kazama-san wha…"

"Ah! Ah! Ah!" Homura interrupted Aya with his finger wagging. "You have to call me Horuma-kun, or nichan." He said smiling. Aya sighed, figuring it would be best to just comply with the man.

"Alright….Homura-kun." She said slowly, testing it out. The man grinned widely, clapping his hands in a girlish matter. "This spring festival, what is it celebrating? Or is it you typical beginning of the growing season." She asked.

"Good question, beautiful." He said. "The festival celebrates two things. The first is as you commented. The typical beginning of the growth cycle" Homura rubbed his cheek, pausing a bit. "The second thing is, this was the week that, the ancient dragon god Tiamat, that once rested here and her master, the god of storms, Summanus or Susanoo. One of them" Homura said. "They celebrate them to hope to get their blessing for plentiful rain." He said.

"That's foolish. Gods don't exist." Hideo said. Homura only smiled at his reply, maybe he was right. The man now wore casual clothing. A black hoodie covered his torso, the hood resting against his back. His hands rested in their pockets, seemingly gripping something. He wore plain, black pants to go along with it, just in case he needed to disappear into darkness.

"Whether you believe in it or not is up to you." Homura said. Maya hummed thinking about it.

"Susanoo you say? But I don't remember any legends of him with a dragon lord." Maya commented. Homura looked at her, slightly ogling her in her new clothing. She was dressed in a blue yukata, a silver designed tiger covering the left side of her robes. The tiger up on its back legs, swinging its right paw at any person who would dare step up to her. A red sash was around her waist, keeping the robes closed. The wristbands were still on her arm.

"Maya-chan, I didn't know you are into legends and myths." Homura stated, slightly surprised. "I guess Naruto has been keeping things from me."

Rolling her eyes, Maya crossed her arms. "Yes…and the legends about Susanoo interest me the most." She said.

"Is it because of the myth surrounding your clan's origins?" Homura asked.

"You can say that." Maya said, giving him a blank stare.

"Alright, new information." Homura exclaimed. "Anyway. A lot of myths and legends are area based. I'm pretty sure nobody on your continent would know. And vice versa…well except Naruto." Maya nodded, it made perfect sense.

"What happens in this legend?" She asked. Homura let out a chuckle, looking ahead of him.

"When we have a little more free time, I'll tell you if you want." He replied. Accepting his delay of the story, Maya looked around.

"How are you going to find him? I can't sense his chakra or anything." Maya asked.

"Oh…That's easy." Homura replied. He pointed in front of him a smile on his face. "He's right there." Everyone looked ahead, spotting Naruto's cloak and the purple haired woman by his side. "Oi! Ryuukei!" Homura shouted out. His shout drew quite a few eyes towards him especially that of his intended target. Upon spotting him, Yoruichi turned to him, looking slightly peeved at the name. Naruto waved him over, before turning back to the game stand

"That name…" Shikamaru stated. Homura looked at the man, who was now wearing a striped black yukata, a white sash around his waist.

"He's a weird one. He wanted me to call him by that when he's in hiding." Homura said, his voice devoid of emotion. "You guys should get the irony in that." Homura eyes moved back to Naruto, who had his arm reeled back. He tossed a ball at the middle ring currently about 10 feet away from his spot. It went through perfectly from what he could see. They stopped by his side, noticing a white mask on his face. The mask resembled a dragon, green, orange and red paint giving it all the characteristics needed for anybody to make the connection. There was one resembling a cat in Yoruichi's left hand.

"Hn….I see you two had a little fun." He said. Yoruichi moved to him, pressing her index finger to his chest, the fish bag slapping against his sternum.

"Don't call him that." She growled out. Homura right eyebrow rose, looking from the woman in front of him before looking at Naruto. Naruto grabbed a large stuffed fox from the vendor. Looking back at the girl in front of her, he frowned.

"I never told you, huh?" He asked.

"Probably not, you tend not to tell me things." She replied. Homura nodded, making not to tell her a little Later. Homura looked back at Naruto, seeing three other plush toys, one being a bear, a crane, and a cute looking dolphin.

"What are we doing here?" Hideo asked, peeved at everything.

"I'm not telling you again." Homura said, before bypassing Yoruichi. He poked Naruto's mask with a frown. "Naruto you should take that off. You look like a ninja." He said. After a moment, Homura reached over to his face and took the mask off. "That's better." Homura managed to get a good look at Naruto's eyes finding them to be back to normal. He held back a sigh of relief and looked at the mask. "Yes, yes. I won't throw it away." He said. Homura moved it underneath his cloak, seemingly fastening it to something. "Alright, sorry about cutting your time short, but we should head home." Homura said.

"Why? Why can't we hang out here a little longer? Yoruichi asked, frowning. "This is the first time I'm here with Naruto."

"Because Yoruichi, bad things happen to procrastinators." He said.

"Like you?" She asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah." Was his simple response. The man looked over at Naruto, who was looking at the ninja, mostly Maya. His eyes tore away from her, his body doing a 180 degree pivot. "Besides Ryuukei is all for it." Homura said. Yoruichi looked at Naruto, before looking at Homura.

"I said not to call him that." Yoruichi growled.

"Yeah, yeah." He said, moving around her. He came by Naruto's side and they started to walk away. Yoruichi glared at his back, before putting the cat mask on. She walked after them, the ninja following closely behind her.

Traversing deeper into the village, the group soon stopped at a circular stage, which stood at the center of the village. A few of the large drums were still set up, two five foot, lit torches on the edges of the stage, on the left and right of the drums. Naruto stared at it, slightly disappointed he missed the rhythmic beats up close. "Don't worry Ryuukei. There will be another festival in a month or so." Homura said. A smirk found its way on his face. "But you will have to go to that one."

Naruto only frowned, nodding his head. "By the way, why did you get those?" Homura asked, pointing at the stuffed animals. Naruto looked at him and gave a slight grin to which Homura nodded at. "Ok...but I don't get why; it's not going to work." He said. Naruto turned suddenly and put them in his hands.

"Hm? Oh ok." Homura let out. Naruto then turned slight left and began trekking around the stage. The cloaked bodyguard followed after, looking as Yoruichi zipped to one stand, selling fried fish. Naruto glanced at her stopping his advancement. Even in the village, he had to keep an eye on her. His eyes quickly shifted to his right, just as somebody bumped into him. He watched as the shorter woman stumbled back a little before stopping.

"Um…I'm sorry." She said, her soft voice holding warmth like no other. Naruto blinked taking in the woman's appearance.

The woman stood at 5 feet 7 inches, gaining an extra inch from her black heels. Long black hair, was tied up into a pony tail. Bangs of her hair came down, framing her face. Her bangs covered the left and right side of her forehead, leaving only the middle visible. Dark purple eyes, stared at him, a gentle light within. A light blush adorned her flawless face.

She sported a long sleeved, light purple dress which hugged her figure that most girls would kill for. The dress came few inches below her butt. The sleeves of the dress, is split near her underarm, showing a good amount of her arm. Fabric was missing from her sleeve in the shape of diamond and triangles, circling her deltoid in a pattern. The middle of the front of her dress from two inches below her belly button to an inch under her collar was is missing fabric, only having two pieces of fabric crossing over the top of her gratuitously bust making an X and seeming holding them up. The pattern of X shaped fabric continued down her abdomen exposing a good portion of her fair skin.

Her legs are long and toned, showing she worked out quite a bit. On her ankle just above her black heels, is a pearl bracelet that anyone would guess to be fairly expensive. She wore a golden ring at the base of her ring finger on her left hand, signifying she was married. In her right hand is a large bottle, with the words for sake labeled on it.

"Oh shit." Homura let out noticing the woman. Naruto barely had time to react before a strong gust of wind blew the blonde's hood straight off his head. With his blonde spikes waving violent by the stirred air, the man stared, slightly surprised. The wind gained the attention of almost everyone in the direct vicinity, their eyes coming to them. Naruto looked around, gasps of surprise echoing around him.

"What…" Aya whispered staring at the girl.

Naruto's mouth twitched, his identity now exposed to everyone around. His eyes came back to the woman in front of him, a nervous smile on his face. "I finally found you…Naruto-kun" Her soft voice came out, filled with the warmth of a lover. Her arms were suddenly around his neck and he was pulled slightly into a deep kiss. The blonde closed his eyes, returning the kiss, his hands wrapping around her waist. Her tongue slipped into his mouth, her left eye opening a bit, looking at the four ninja behind Homura.

They stared shocked at the unexpected spectacle in front of them. Shikamaru's hand came to his mouth, he thought the woman Yoruichi was his lover. But now this new girl was kissing on him and she married no less. Damn this was getting harder and harder to plan for. He looked over at the rest of his team, finding nobody showing any visible hostilities, which were a step up from earlier. Looking back at the two adults he noticed the woman's eye on them. The thought of her being one of the people Homura spoke about came to his mind.

A moment later Naruto broke the kiss, his mouth scrunched up a bit. She smiled at him, looking into his now opened eyes. His eye twitched, his tongue sliding across his lips.

The woman giggled, her free hand gripping his hair. "No, I'm not drunk..." She said looking away for a second. "Maybe a little tipsy." Her eyes came back to his, a smile on her face. Naruto let out a sigh, moving his hands from her waist. His eyes came up, scanning the crowds that were starting to form around them. Whispers began to reach his ear, nothing bad, just the whispers of women wanting to be in his arms and others of his name. He frowned, not liking the spot light. Naruto looked back at the woman who was still smiling, like she didn't do this on purpose.

"But Naruto-kun, I wanted to spend some time with you here." She whined. Her left hand slid from his hair to his cheek. Leaning in the woman placed another kiss on his lips. But her soft lips left his a second later, a rock flying in between the space now present between their faces. Their heads turned, spotting Yoruichi whose arm was extended, her eyes narrowed in an angry glare.

Growling lowly, the girl drew her arm back, her body tensed to attack. "What do you think you're doing with my Naruto?" She asked, menacingly.

She raised an eyebrow, a smirk on her face. "Your Naruto? I think you are mistaken." She said, shielding his form from her sight

Homura walked up, finally deciding to say something. He stepped in front of the woman, facing Yoruichi. "Please ladies; this is not the time for such an event." Homura said, calmly. "You know I need a least an hour notice in other to set up betting rings."

"Homura-chan!" She exclaimed, leaping on his back.

"Whoa!" He let out, stumbling forward a bit. He recovered, turning his head back a bit.

"I didn't see you. How have you been?" She asked with a smile, her arms squeezing his neck.

"I would be fine, if you weren't choking me." He forced out.

"Ah," She loosened her hold, still smiling. "How about now?"

"Yeah, better." Homura said nodding his head.

"Hey!" Yoruichi shouted out. She pointed at the woman, who dropped from Homura's back. "Don't change the subject. Now I will say this one more time, kiss him again and your ass is grass." She said glaring.

"Ah! Yoruichi, Yoruichi, Yoruichi." She chanted condescendingly. "We had this talk before and after this if you continue to talk as if you can beat me, we will have great problems." The black haired woman turned to Naruto, walking to him, before wrapping her left arm on around his neck. "And I'll kiss him whenever I want" She said looking back at the girl. She looked at Naruto leaning up on the tips of her toes, to kiss him once again. Before her lips could make contact with his, she was forced to leap back, dodging a kick aimed at her face.

Landing softly, the woman watched Yoruichi land in front of Naruto, growling at her. She glared hard at the woman, standing straight. She moved her right hand, clearing a few strands of hair from in front of her eyes.

"You really don't know when to quit." Yoruichi growled.

"Heh! Quit? What's that?" She asked, looking down on the shorter woman. Growling, Yoruichi disappeared for sight. A chorus of oooh came from the crowd. Naruto's eyes went to them as the mystery woman twirled her body, lashing out with a high kick the moment the golden eyed woman appeared just above her, lashing out with her own kick.

Both women eyes moved to Naruto, who stood in between the two. By the grace of some god, the woman managed to stop her kick just two inches shy of Naruto's face. Yoruichi on the other hand, didn't have that grace. Her leg was inches from Naruto's face before his hand rose, gripping her ankle and affectively stopping her attack. Naruto ducked down, planting Yoruichi's foot on the ground. Shock showed on her face as he stood back up, his hand off her ankle.

Naruto looked at purple eyes girl his eyes narrowed quite a bit. Her foot dropped quickly, a sheepish smile on her face. His eyes went to Yoruichi next and her body jerked in surprise. She looked away from his eyes, the ground looking really interesting as of now. Naruto looked back over at the taller woman, tilting his head just a bit. "Alright, love." She said, smiling. Looking at Yoruichi, the blonde glanced at Homura, motioning the man over with his eyes.

Homura walked over to their new spot, humming a bit. "Naruto says not to do that again." Homura said, smiling brightly. Yoruichi looked up at him before turning her sights on Naruto. She nodded, letting out a sigh. Naruto looked from her, looking at the crowd around them.

"Hello everyone! This drama is brought to you by Naruto-sama." Homura shouted out, walking around said person who was smiling. "He would like to thank you all, and contribute to this wonderful festival." He looked over at Naruto, and the man nodded. "So please, watch and enjoy the upcoming entertainment!" With that done, Homura walked over to the ninja, who watched everything calmly.

He stopped in front of Shikamaru, locking eyes with the man. "Move over to the right and follow Yoruichi when the show starts. We'll meet up with you soon." He said. Without a word the man turned around, walking over to the purple haired woman. He eyes came to Naruto and he nodded. With that the blonde man turned around and leapt on the stage. Homura stopped in front of Yoruichi, leaning over a bit to her ear. "When everyone is distracted, lead them towards the hotel. About halfway should be good." He whispered. Yoruichi nodded. Homura smiled, putting the four stuffed animals in her hand. She looked at him, her face expressing how irritated she was getting.

Playing no mind to the woman, Homura looked toward the stage, watching Naruto's stop in the middle. He turned towards the people, his arms about abdomen high, and his hands palms up. With any type of warning fire sparked to life around his left forearm, and electricity surged around his right. Gasps of excitement and awe came from the villagers, as the elements moved to the center of his palm. Naruto raised both his hands up, above his head. The two elements flew up, the small fireball stopping just about a meter above his head while the lightning disappearing into a cloud formation up above.

The fireball suddenly exploded, spreading outward, forming a large six foot in diameter sphere of flames. It took less than a moment for the flames to decrease in volume, the fire taking on the form of a woman. Being six feet in height, the woman was made to be filled out in all the right areas, every detail of an actually woman could be seen in the orangey-red form. Blazing red hair came from the top of the forms head, reaching down to the middle of its back. Its narrowed eyes looked out at the crowd, seemingly judging everyone. A weapon lied in its left hand, a double edged long-sword, spanning at least 4 feet out.

Homura raised his eyebrows at it, a small smile on his face. He waved his hand in a small arc, trying to go unnoticed. As soon as he did this, more flames began to drop from the womanly form in the air. The fire covered her, acting like a cloak to it before changing into a battle kimono. Long sleeves covered her arms, her body covered by the robes. A sash spread from her arm left arm, arcing over her head before tying around her right arm. Homura's smile grew, his little job done. He looked down at Naruto, seeing the blonde's eyes on him. The cloaked man gave a 'thumbs up' in response, causing Naruto to shaking his head.

Homura looked around, noticing everyone's eyes on the beauty female form in the air. He looked back at Shikamaru, who was staring in the area, a calculating look on his face. The other four looked in awe at it, which wasn't surprising. With a light whistle he drew their attention. He tapped Yoruichi, who nodded before looking at the ninja. She nudged her head towards the side before she disappeared in a blur. He felt the four of them move as well and he moved his eyes toward the black haired woman. She stared into his eyes, a slight curious light flaring within her violet orbs. He put his index finger to his lips and smiled at her.

The lightning that Naruto shot up soon came down, but in the form of a large and long, white scaled, serpent-like dragon. It descended, its body slithering down like a snake. The long muzzle opened wide, revealing two rows of razor sharp teeth. Glowing white eyes sparked with electricity, hair that trailed from its head down its back, stood on ends, the lightning keeping it straight. Four legs, propionate to its size, were pressed against its body, three sharp talons on each of its fingers.

The gasps of surprise grew louder, as the dragon and woman locked eyes. The woman seemingly prepared for battle, flew up, sword arm raised above her. The dragon twisted, its body like a corkscrew as if flew towards the fire. The two met high in the air, sparks of fire and electricity collided, filling the sky with colorful lights. A great chorus of "Whoa" came from the group, the two fighting a battle above their heads.

Yoruichi landed just about four blocks away from the stage. She let out a huge sigh, before turning around. She stared at the empty block, wondering where the four ninja she was escorting was. She hummed, maybe she moved a little too fast for them follow. "We're here." Aya's voice came from her right. Yoruichi jumped, turning to them quickly, surprise clearly showing on her face.

Maya and Shikamaru looked each other, slightly confused. They figured she had good senses; they weren't even trying to hide.

Aya gave the woman a disarming smile. "Sorry if we scared you." Aya said. Yoruichi let out another sigh, that's one reason she hated ninja.

"It's alright." Yoruichi said slowly. They all turned their heads, a bright light flashing in the sky.

"Whoa." Aya let out, at awe. Even from the distance they were at, they could clearly see the battle above; though as each second passed it became less and less like a fight and more like a dance. As the flaming woman swung her sword, the dragon evaded it, circling its body around her. She flew higher into the air, the dragon's body only inches from wrapping around her. She flipped, her body spinning, fire escaping from her clothing. The fire trailed out from her, creating a flower like form in the air.

Tearing her eyes from the scene, Aya looked over to Yoruichi. "Is this something that usually happens?" She asked. Yoruichi shrugged, not really able to answer it.

"Naruto doesn't really come to festivals, at least from the time I spent with him." Yoruichi said. She looked over to her humming. "He usually either stuck in or out traveling."

"Why does he travel?" Shikamaru asked his attention still on the display above.

"I couldn't tell you." Yoruichi said eyeing him. She had to wonder if she was speaking too much. Looking at the other two members, she noticed the male, Hideo if she remembered correctly, was just looking away, his face contorted in loathing. The other looked on with an expressionless mask, hiding all emotion. She thought about everything that happened during the last few hours and decided to ask her question that Homura would most likely 'forget' to tell her. "Hey, why was Naruto banished from your village?" She asked.

This question of hers drew the attention of all four of the ninja. They all looked at each other, remembering that it was mentioned that she didn't know. Hideo smiled mischievously. What better way to get a beautiful woman away from him then to inform her of the true of who she's dealing with. "Well, that's quite the interesting story." Hideo said. "Allow me to.."

"We would like to inform you of such" Shikamaru interrupted, calmly. "But it would be in your best interest to find out from Naruto." Yoruichi frowned at his answer but understood all the same. Most likely they would only know one side of the story anyway. She looked up at the sky, seeing the dragon burst back into lightning, before it formed together creating a wonderful display of light, multiple colors radiating from the streaks of electricity. Describing it in one word, gorgeous.

As fast as the light came, it faded leaving only the flaming, kimono warrior in the sky. She moved her arm down, across her stomach, giving a proper bow. A loud, boisterous cheer roared in the air. It was loud enough for them to hear it clearly. The fire princess burst a second later, losing its human like form. The flames began to die out, a few of the embers gathering together in a circle. A line came from it trailing out in a spiral around it. The ninja recognized the symbol automatically. It was the emblem that was sown into the material on the back of their flak jacket.

The symbol soon faded, following the rest of the flames. The sounds of cheers continued to ring out, with seemingly no end in sight. "It seems he still has pride in his clan." Maya mumbled.

"Clan?" Yoruichi asked turning to her. "Naruto has a clan?" They all blinked at her, it is impossible that she was this ignorant about him. "What? The only thing I was ever told is that his mother and father died on the day he was born." She didn't like the looks they were giving her.

Aya smiled at her, "Yeah, well it was big. But something happened and his clan got separated." Aya explained. Yoruichi nodded taking in the information. She would have to confirm it.

"Was he the only one left in Konoha?" She asked. Aya nodded, humming a bit.

"There was this girl that we, um, found. She was part of his clan but a lot of things happened. Naruto managed to talk our leader into letting her go thought." Aya said. "I wonder what happened to her."

"Does it matter?" Maya asked, crossing her arms. "She wasn't that good of a person anyway."

"Sounds like you hate her." Yoruichi said. Maya gave her a long before shrugging. She wouldn't go into it.

"How long do we have to wait here?" Hideo asked. The tapping of his right foot alerted them to his impatience.

"Knowing Homura and that bitch….It might take a.."

"Who are you calling a bitch?"

Everyone looked down the road, Naruto, Homura, and the new woman, appearing before their eyes. The woman was holding on to Naruto's arm, her head now coming off his shoulder, and sake bottle nowhere to be seen. She glared at the purpled hair girl who only returned to stare. "You, of course." Yoruichi fired back. The woman looked at Naruto frowning.

"You see Naruto-kun, so disrespectful and a potty mouth." She said. "She is just a bad egg."

"Hey!" She shouted, clearly displeased. The woman only stuck her tongue out, earning a laugh from Homura. Naruto let out a sigh, walking over to the woman, he carefully relieved her of the stuffed animals she currently held. She released them into his custody, and watched him hand over crane to the woman. She took it with a smile, hugging it tightly.

"Thank you Naruto-kun." She said before planting a kiss on his cheek. A smile came on his face and he looked at Homura.

"Oh come on, this is Kazehana we are talking about. Of course it would work on her." Homura said. Naruto sighed shaking his head. "I'm not a spoilsport." Homura shook his head. Kazehana looked at him and nodded in agreement.

"You kinda are." She said. Homura sighed before looking ahead.

"Let's just go home….I'm actually tired." He said. Naruto nodded and his head dropped.

"Don't be worried, I'm pretty sure they'll forgive you." Kazehana said. Naruto and Homura looked at her, Naruto slightly relieved. "…..After a small punishment." Naruto's head dropped again, a frown on his whiskered face.

"On that note, who's actually home?" Homura asked.

"Well, Miya is there of course, Tsukiko, and Riven. Everyone else is out." Kazehana said, nodding in recollection.

"Whoa…." Homura let out. "You are so in trouble Naruto."

"Hmph. Naruto could take them." Yoruichi boasted. She moved to his free side and grabbed his arm. He somehow managed to keep his grip on the animals. Naruto smiled at her and Homura burst out laughing.

"Yeah, let's hurry so I can see that happen." The cloaked man began to walk, the purple haired girl glaring at him. The ninja decided to follow the man and began walking after him. Naruto stared at them, letting out a sigh. Kazehana rubbed his back, drawing his eyes back to her. She gave him a reassuring smile. He returned a smile, as if thanking her for her support, before the two started to walk after them.

It took less than ten minutes of walking for them to reach their supposed destination. "Is this it?" Aya asked, surprised at what she was looking at. Homura smiled, nodding at the woman.

"Yep, yep. This is it, Izumo inn." Homura said looking at the building. The hotel was fairly large, the outside walls of the structure coated with white paint. The 3 story inn held ten windows across each floor just from the frontal view, giving the idea that there were at least twenty rooms per floor. Each of the windows was an average size of 2'2 x 20'. All of the windows had a tan curtains on the inside, keeping all eyes from a look inside.

Outside the hotel were two life size dragon statues placed on either side of the stone pathway leading to the hotel door. The one on their right was a blue, wingless dragon; its body resembling that of a snake. Four legs held it up its four claws resting against the rectangle stone pillar that it stood on. Blue eyes stared out, its body tense as if alerted to some type of threat. The dragon's long muzzle is furrowed, its pure white teeth showing as if growling. The stone pillar has many intricate designs and patterns over the smooth surface.

On the left side is a golden winged dragon. In contrast to the other dragon this reptile is lying down, its body curled around like a crescent. Its two wings that came from its back are folded in, covering its torso from visible view. Four legs rested on the rectangular pillar, five sharp claws on each foot. The sleeping dragon looked completely relax, seemly dreaming something pleasant. Like the other pillar across for it, intricate designs decorated the smooth surface.

A field of green grass covered the patch of land around the two feet pillars. A large six foot wooden fence surrounded the entirety of the land, which just about equaled less than half an acre. It was easy to tell that the backyard of this hotel were mostly fill with trees, though the hint of steam could be seen on the left side of it, indicating an outdoor hot spring.

"You live in a hotel?" Maya asked. Homura looked at her and smiled.

"Yep. The benefits of living in a hotel are grand." Homura said. Naruto gave him a look and the man turned to him. "Shut up." Naruto smiled, almost looking as if he was going to laugh. Naruto broke off from the two women at his side and walked ahead. He passed the ninja and stopped right in front of Homura. He gave him the dolphin and bear before looking ahead at the door. Homura raised an eyebrow frowning. "Oh…I didn't think it was necessary." Naruto looked back at him and nodded. "Alright." Homura sighed and watched Naruto walk to the hotel door.

Homura turned towards the group before waving Kazehana over to him. This drew everyone eyes to her as she passed them. She stopped at his side before turning and facing the ninja. "Ahem, it seems like I forgot to introduce her. This is Kazehana." He touched her shoulder giving a smile.

"Hello. It's a pleasure to meet you." Kazehana greeted.

"That is Aya-chan, Maya-chan, Shikamaru-san, and Hideo." He pointed to them in that order.

Hideo narrowed his eyes at being addressed so familiarly. "It's nice to meet you." Shikamaru and Aya said. Maya mumbled a greeting while Hideo stared at her.

"What's your connection with Naruto?" He asked. Homura raised an eyebrow. Rude fuck. He was about to reply only for Kazehana to giggle a little.

"I'm his lovely-dovey wife." Kazehana said, her eyes shut and a blush on her face. The four ninja stared at her, unable to contain their surprise.

"Did you just…say wife?" Aya asked blinking. Kazehana nodded, squeezing her new stuffed animal against her face.

"I did. Naruto is the love of my life." She let out, giddy. At that Yoruichi took the time to make it passed them, her arms crossed.

"Wait….I thought he was with her?" Aya said. Kazehana frowned at that.

"Nope. She came a year too late." Kazehana said looking at her.

"Uh-huh, sure." The purple haired girl said.

"Now that, that's done we can go inside." Homura said, hoping to avoid the incoming argument.

Kazehana turned to Homura nodding before turning to Yoruichi. She followed after the woman with Homura hot on her tail. The ninja looked at each other, still shocked. Shikamaru looked down, finding two of his strategies completely useless. His eyes narrowed a bit, maybe they weren't useless. He looked up and walked forward, causing his three teammates to follow after him.

The door opened to the hotel, and the sight the five were treated to the sight of Naruto being pressed up against a white wall with what looked to be the broken remains of a sword. The golden brown rectangular guard of the sword is just about as wide as Naruto's board shoulders, the blade itself being around two to three inches shorter. The remaining of the broken blade spans of about a foot in a half where the edge is and curves down from the apex of the edge, making a crack filled semi-circle as it comes to the blunt side that was nearly half of the sharp edge in length. The curve piece was press up against the blonde's neck, the grey of the blade shining a bit from the light above them. The long hilt, spanning at least a foot, is black and seemed to be made out of some unknown material.

A gloved hand held on to the blade, metal plates stitched into the back of the glove. Following the hand to its origin, they could see the female of the height of 5 ft. 6 inches. Red hair flowed from her head, ending up just about mid back. Her hair is parted in a straight line on the left side of her head, an inch shy of the middle of her forehead. Her hair dropped down, framing the left side of her face, while spike bangs of hair fell in between her eyes and on the right side of her face, covering her right eye. Her nose is on the smaller side, her lips thin, twisted into a manic smile. Almond eyes stared at Naruto, narrowed in a dark glare. Brown irises sparked with both anger and excitement.

Her outfit is strange considering what the ninja had seen so far. A red breastplate covered her torso, two bulges protruded at where her breasts are. and a blood red belt covered from her breast down to her waist. Gold colored metal followed the arcing of the belt in several places, as well as the top of the breastplate. The breast seemed to be over a hooded blue short sleeved shirt, the large hood resting against her back. Formfitting blue jeans covered her legs and over that are red greaves. White shoes are covering her feet. In her left arm, the red fox Naruto had rested against her side.

Naruto's hands were raised shoulder height, palms open to show he had no weapons out. He was slightly looking to the side, his eyes on them. An expression of unease was on his face, the blonde locking eyes with Homura instantly. Homura smiled at his friend, before a chuckle of amusement left his lips. "Didn't work, did it?" He asked. Naruto frowned at him, his eyes seemingly pleading for help.

The woman's brown eyes came to him, her excitement growing. "Homura, welcome back." She spoke, her voice soft and honeyed. He smiled at her walking from behind Yoruichi.

Homura put on a dazing smile, "Riven, my sweet, what's up with the hostility?" The moment he reached her, he found the broken blade pointing at his chest. His smiled widen, his hands coming up in the same manner as Naruto. "Come on love, we just got back."

The woman almost laughed. "Isn't that a better reason the any to start right away?"

Homura chuckled at that, looking back at Kazehana. She smiled, amused at the situation. Homura turned back to look at Riven before his eyes snapped to Naruto. "Run!" Naruto was off the wall before he could finish his order. The woman seemed to expect this and turned. She leaped after the man, who was already down the main lobby.

Aya blinked glancing around the hall, her mouth open slightly. "W-what happened?" She asked. To her, they were there one second but when he shouted run, they were just gone. Kazehana smiled at the girl walking in front of them.

"Oh nothing, they are just playing tag." She said. Yoruichi looked at her blinking.

"That's not how you play tag." She said. Kazehana giggled at that.

"Of course it is." She replied.

"Kazehana." Homura called out turning to the woman.

"Yes, Homura-chan?" She answered, turning her head to him.

"How many rooms are available?" He asked. A low hum left her mouth as she thought.

"I think only one is free." Kazehana replied, sweetly. With a smile she turned to the ninja. "I guess we will have to show them to another inn."

Homura turned to her, shaking his head. "Two of them could use Naruto's room."

"What!?" Yoruichi let out.

Homura paid her no mind opting to look at the ninja. "Maya and Aya can use it." He turned and walked over to the desk, placing the two animals behind it. "Naruto could stay in either my room or yours. Though I doubt he will be able to." Homura sighed. "If you don't mind, can you show them to the rooms please….I'm going to try and help Naruto." With that, the man dashed off, giving no time for Kazehana to reply.

She stared after him, a blank expression on her face. "Follow me." She ordered, walking forward. The five of them walked after her, the ninja finally getting a chance to look around the room. The room was relatively large, holding a few couches that were placed against both walls. A wooden reception desk stood at the end of the room, two halls on either side of it. Pictures, both of a group of people and paintings, hung up on the walls. One painting stood out the most.

The color scheme held all darker tones of colors. The image itself was a depiction of a woman, standing on a cliff. She was decked out in white armor, a long sword, probably longer than a nodachi in her right hand. Blood red hair flowed, being blown by the wind. She was staring out at a scene of carnage, a large flying snake over a devastated landscape. A woman stood on top of the snake, dark flames surrounding her form. Three warriors were in the air, each with noticeable different weapons.

Aya stared at it, getting an ominous feeling from it. She turned her head away, taking a brief notice of her cousin, who was looking at it as well. She looked ahead at Kazehana, watching her go behind the reception desk. Going in the desk, the woman grabbed two jingling keys. "Would you mind passing me my key please?" Yoruichi asked politely. Kazehana smiled at the woman, nodding her head. Going back in the desk, she grabbed another key and brought it out. She closed the drawer and tossed the key to the purple haired woman. "Thank you. I'll head to my room. I'll be down soon enough."

"Alright, I'll tell Naruto if I see him before you." She said. Yoruichi nodded and then she was gone.

Kazehana looked at the ninja before walking back around the desk. "Ok..Shikamura-san and Hideo-san, you will be staying in room 203." Kazehana stated, handing Shikamaru the key. He cupped the key, nodding in thanks. Looking at the two females, she forced a smile. "I'll lead you two to the room you will be occupying."

"If it's that much of a problem, we could go to another inn." Maya offered, not really liking the idea. Kazehana shook her head, letting the smile drop from her face.

"That wouldn't be a good idea." Kazehana said, turning to her right. "Please follow me." With that she walked towards the hall.

Maya raised her right eyebrow, if that was the case, why did she suggest it first? Following after the woman the ninja looked around the hall, it was well furnished. It didn't take them long to reach a set of stairs, which was placed just before a turn into another hall. She stopped on the second floor, pointing the way towards the male's room. After their departure, Kazehana lead the Natsume cousins up the stairs.

"I have a question." Aya said.

Kazehana looked back at her, "Go ahead." She replied.

"If you and Naruto are married, why do you have different rooms?" The brunette asked. Kazehana looked forward, a smile on her face.

"Well you see, the owner of the place, has a set of rules. She is very strict with those rules. And if we share a room, we would be in violation of quite a few of them." Kazehana said, a blush gracing her face. "From what I'm told, I'm quite the noisy one." Kazehana giggled in a perverse matter causing the silver haired woman to roll her eyes.

"Shouldn't you being married…um suggest that would happen anyway?" Aya asked. Kazehana looked at her.

"That's what I said. But she wouldn't listen to reason. Now even though we're married, we have to sneak around just to make love….. or be outside." Kazehana said. She giggled again, her face flushed. "Ahhh! Outside."

"Can we get off this subject?" Maya said, staring blankly. Kazehana stepped out of the stairway, a grin on her face.

"Ah! Aren't you the shy one?" She said. "From what Naruto-kun said about your history with him, I thought you would be more open." Maya's eyes widen briefly, her mouth twitching. Aya looked at her frowning.

"We have no history." Maya retorted, quickly.

"I wouldn't call 'that' no history." Kazehana said, grinning. Maya glared at the woman, she was starting no to like her. Aya on the other hand was wondering if they were going to fill her in. She wasn't sure what 'that' is but she had a guess and she would need to know how right she was.

Coming onto the third floor, Kazehana lead the down the hall. Both of the ninja looked at each of the brown doors, seeing numbers on them. Looking ahead at the woman they were following, they had to wonder which one was Naruto's.

Homura leaned up against the wall, looking around at the kitchen. His eyes locked onto the moving body of the 5 ft. 3 inches tall woman who was currently cooking. The fabric of her purple hakama, which covered her legs, swayed with the movements of her hips. His eye raised higher, the dark purple sash around her waist and the white haori that covered her slender yet shapely form. Purple hair fell just below her waist, a white ribbon held her hair partial in place. The straps of a white apron could be seen from behind, wrapped around her waist and her neck.

Homura watched her hips move, a tune coming from her mouth in a hum. "Homura." She spoke, drawing his attention to her head. "Can you pass me the paprika and sugar please?"

"Yeah." He said, walking from his current spot. Going over to the cabinets on her right, Homura opened the cupboards, and quickly looked at the first shelf. He looked over the numerous bottles before his eyes landed on a small container of red spice and a larger bottle of with the label of sugar on it. "Ah! Here it is." He grabbed them both before turning, handing it over to the woman.

She took them from him with thanks and placed the sugar on the counter. Homura closed the shelves, before looking back at the woman. Watching her add the spice into the silver pot, which held stew, the young man turned around and leaned up against the counter. "Miya-sama…"

She stopped him with a raised spoon, "Ah! Cooking." She said.

"Oh, right." He replied, crossing his arms. He watched her as she resumed humming, the tune something he remembered Naruto singing years before. His eyes went down to her hips, her shapely butt catching his attention. A huge smile appeared on his face his hands dropping. He slowly moved his right hand over to her, hoping not to attract her attention. His fingers moved suspiciously. 'Just an inch more.' His hand hovered over her butt, his fingers moving erratically.

"You know." Miya said, turning to the man. Her violet eyes gazed at him, a smile on her face. Homura's hand stopped instantly, a nervous grin on his face. "Naruto tried that a year ago. I broke his arm for it." Her eyes closed a second later, a small chuckle leaving her mouth. A purple, demonic like visage appeared just beside her face, its sharp teeth pressed together in a smile. Homura's body shook, all thought of his action forgotten. He let his arm drop harmlessly at his side, a single drop of swear rolling down his cheek. His head fell, his eyes looking to the wall at his left.

It took a minute before a low clank drew his eyes back to her. She looked at him rubbing her hands on her apron. "What would you like to speak about?" She asked. Homura smiled at her lifting his hand up to the back of his head.

"Well first, sorry for being so late with our return. Naruto has your package with him….Riven is chasing him around now." Homura said. Miya chuckled at this piece of information.

"Just send him to my room later. I'll collect it then." She said. Homura raised an eyebrow at her, since when was Naruto allowed in her room?

"Alright. Other than that….Naruto's eyes activated today." He said. The woman's eyes narrowed a bit, a hum leaving her mouth.

"Just his eyes?" She asked. Homura shrugged, turning completely to her.

"I couldn't tell you but I doubt this was the first time since we left." Homura said. "He's been keeping things from me." Homura frowned, disliking the thought. Miya let out a small smile.

"He is that type of guy. Burdening others with his problems is something he would avoid at all cost." The aproned woman commented. Homura looked at her letting his head drop.

"Even so….He doesn't need to hide it from me." Homura said. "From you guys yeah. But, I'm his partner, his brother. Anything he needs I'll get. Anything that'll make him smile, I'll set up. There should be no reason to hide it from me."

"You brought him here earlier then he wanted right?" She asked her smile widening. Homura blinked looking at her.

"Well…yea..ah! I see." The man let out. Homura hummed, nodding his head.

"Put it out of your mind for now. I'll take a look at him tonight." Miya said. Homura nodded, his body relaxing.

"Thank you." Homura let out, a low sigh coming out after. "If you need me for anything just let me know." Miya nodded, turning back to her pot. Homura made his way over to the door, stopping at entrance. He forgot to mention the ninja…but how would she react.

"Is there something else?" She asked, glancing back at him. He jumped a bit, turning back.

"Um…nothing, just thinking, you look great in an apron." Homura said, smiling. She giggled at him, raising her spoon up.

"Being fresh with me now? Fufufu, Naruto tried that as well, I broke his jaw." She said. Homura's mouth dropped before he turned around.

"How did he do it?" He muttered.

"Oh…Send Tsukiko to me at your earliest convenience please."

Homura nodded, "Alright." And then he was out the door.

Walking around the inn, he quickly found Naruto who was in the backyard, smelling white flowers that were in a patch towards the right side of the area. Before he could call to him, Naruto looked at him. A smile appeared on his face and Homura walked over to him. "You relaxing?" Homura asked, sitting beside him. Naruto nodded leaning back on his hands. "That's good, Riven-chan probably ran you through the whole area….Where is she by the way?"

Naruto looked at him, giving a sly grin. "Wow? Seriously? You just got back, tonight is the night you're supposed to spend with your wife." Homura said surprised. Naruto nodded at that before sighing. "True….she would bring her too. Oh well, tomorrow will have to be her day." Naruto laid back on the ground, looking at the star lit sky. He glanced over at Homura who gave a nervous grin. "Well…I wanted to….I just don't know how to tell her. She's really scary." Naruto frowned at him before nodding. "Um.. You sure?" Naruto nodded at that. "Thanks…I'm not really sure how to handle this."

Naruto looked at him before shaking his head. "What?" Homura let out. Naruto shook his head again and Homura crossed his arms, puffing his cheeks out. "Fine, I don't want to know anyway." Naruto smiled at the man, looking back at the sky. Homura gazed at him, his talk with Miya coming to his mind. "Um, question….did you try and grope Miya?" He asked. Naruto looked back at him, blinking a bit, Naruto shook his head. "You didn't try?" A smirk spread on his face, raising his right hand above him. "Whoa! You succeeded?" Homura turned completely towards him, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "Alright spill, how did she feel?" Naruto sat up, his face almost looking enlightened. "Truly?" Naruto nodded. "Wow! I should have done it." He said.

Naruto's eyes widen, shaking his head vigorously. "Why?" He asked. Naruto lifted his right arm, pointed at a few spots. "She broke your arm in five places, Riven did worst." Naruto gave him a blank stare and Homura laughed. "Alright, alright. I won't grope her." Homura watched Naruto drop back to the ground. A smile still on his face, Homura looked up. Blinking as a memory entered his mind. "Oh yeah, I let Maya and Aya use your room."

Chapter one is up. Tell me how much you like it.
