In Naruto's and Sakura's apartment, Naruto was playing the role of chef and cooking up a storm using 3 shadow clones.

"Damn, Naruto. That smells amazing." Sakura said as a little bit of drool formed on the side of her mouth.

"It's been a while since I've had the ingredients to make all of this." Naruto said proudly.

"Remind me, what are you making?"

"Baked mac and cheese, cheese cake, chicken Kiev, sauteed asparagus and a tossed garden salad." Naruto listed off.

"Mmmmmm... How much longer because I'm about to start eating the table."

"Wow, Sakura-chan. I haven't seen you this hungry before." Naruto said in awe.

"I haven't had anything to eat yet so, yea of course I'm hungry."

"Ah, fair enough."

"So how much longer?" Sakura asked impatiently.

"Well, the mac and cheese should done in about-"

DING

"Now, actually."

One of his clones pulled the baking pan out of the oven, its smell permeating the kitchen.

"Oh my god that smells sooooo good." Sakura said impatiently.

"One plate, coming up." Naruto said as his clone dished out a good size plate of mac and cheese. The food creating a lot of steam from cooking. He handed it to Naruto who then placed it in front of Sakura.

"Dig-"

"More please?" Sakura said. Within nearly a second, she devoured the whole plate of mac and cheese and was now asking for more.

"-in...? Damn... Since when did you eat that fast?"

"Less talk, more food."

"Uh... Sure, coming right up..."

Naruto scooped out another helping of mac and cheese with another serving of chicken kiev. As soon as he handed it to Sakura she devoured it as well.

"More." She demanded.

Naruto and his clones looked surprised at Sakura's appetite, but obliged by handing her plate after plate of food until there was no more.

"More please." Sakura asked.

"Um...we're out actually. You ate it all."

"What do you mean I ate it all?" Sakura protested.

"I mean I made enough for 12 servings and you ate them all." Naruto said.

"Huh?" Sakura asked in confusion. She then looked at the empty dishes that were on the table and on the counter as well. She had even ate the entire cheesecake. A wave of shock and disbelief washed over her at the sight of what she had done.

"Oh my god... I have never eaten that much in my life..."

"I don't think I've ever seen someone eat that much. You could give Choji a run for his money." Naruto said in awe.

"B-but, how...? I never ate this much before..." Sakura stopped herself and remembered that her body started all of these changes the moment her tail grew. "Naruto... This tail must have something to do with it, but, who do I ask about it?"

"I don't know..." Naruto said before slapping has palm. "I could ask Kurama! He has a tail!"

'Don't look at me, Kit. I know nothing about this.'

"Damn it." Naruto sighed. It was such a brilliant idea too.

"I doubt he would know... Hand me the phone, we gotta check in with Kakashi-sensei anyway."

One of Naruto's clones handed her the phone and she pulled out a piece of paper that had a set of numbers on it. She dialed the first one and heard it ring a few times when someone answered.

"Hokage's office, Shizune speaking." His secretary answered.

"Hi, Shizune! It's Sakura."

"Sakura! Have you two made it to Dragon already?" Shizune asked happily.

"Yes we did, but we need to check in with Kakashi-sensei and can you get Lady Tsunade in on this conversation as well?"

"Sure thing! Give me one minute, I gotta put you on hold."

"Alright."

Shizune put Sakura on hold and paged Kakashi. "Lord Kakashi, Sakura is holding on line two for you."

Kakashi snapped his Make-Out: Revolutions book shut and took his feet off his desk. "Thank you Shizune. Hold all my other calls and meetings."

"Yes, my lord, also Sakura has requested to speak with Lady Tsunade as well."

'Tsunade? What, did she sleep with Naruto already?' Kakashi thought. "Very well, summon her for me and let her in as soon as she arrives."

"Yes sir." Shizune responded.

Kakashi picked up the phone and keyed two.

"Yo, how's my favorite female student?"

"Hey Kakashi-sensei!" Sakura greeted. "You didn't tell us we would get such luxurious accommodations here."

"Oh? Could have sworn I did. Oh well, so how are things?"

"Good...mostly." Sakura said hesitantly.

"Mostly?" Kakashi asked as he raised an eyebrow. "Is there something you wish to tell me?"

"Yea... So, this morning, I woke up and I had found out something rather disturbing."

'I wonder...' Kakashi thought. "And what would that be?"

"I uh... Woke up with a tail coming out of me... What does that mean exactly?" Sakura asked.

Just then, Tsunade walked in. "I'm sorry, what?" Kakashi asked.

"I said I grew a tail, somehow... How is that possible?" Sakura asked.

"It shouldn't be. But I'm going to go out on a limb her and say that it has something to do with a kekkei genkai. One moment."

"What's up?" Tsunade asked.

"I'll put it on speaker." Kakashi said as he pressed another button. "Sakura? Lady Tsunade just arrived. Tell her what you just told me."

Sakura sighed. "I woke up this morning and saw that I grew a tail."

Tsunade went wide eyed. "A...tail...?"

Kakashi then paged Shizune. "Shizune, could you get me Sakura's family medical records? The ANBU records."

"Yes sir." Shizune responded.

"She doesn't have to. I already know." Tsunade said.

"You do?" Kakashi asked.

Tsunade nodded. "Sakura... For what you are, that is completely normal."

"I-it is...? What do you mean?" Sakura asked.

"According to my findings from yours and your father's physicals and going by ANBU records, you are one quarter Saiyan, an alien warrior race that hails from another planet." Tsunade stated seriously.

That's when they heard the phone drop on the floor.

"Sakura? Are you still there?" Kakashi asked.

"Y-yes... Kakashi-sensei... I just blacked out for a moment..." Sakura replied.

"I caught her." Naruto reassured.

"Good to know." Tsunade said. "Now, listen. Your grandfather, Retatsu Haruno, was a full blooded Saiyan, making your father a half Saiyan and you a quarter. Remember how I've always said you would be able to do great things? This is why."

"S-so... I'm part alien...?" Sakura gasped out. She had heard most of that from Inner, but she honestly thought she was making it up. To hear it from her very own master, it was an entirely different thing now.

"In short, yes you are." Tsunade replied.

"I...(gulp) I think I'm gonna be sick..." Sakura said shakily.

Shizune then arrived with the ANBU documents and handed them to Kakashi. He looked over them and confirmed what Tsunade was saying was right.

"Well, these files confirm it..." Kakashi sighed.

So, does that explain her sudden increase in power as well as appetite?" Naruto asked.

"Yes it does. But what I don't understand is how it grew back. That usually only happens when a Saiyan sleeps with his or hers chosen mate." Tsunade wondered.

"Oooohhh... That explains why..." Naruto said without thinking.

Kakashi and Tsunade did a double take. "Wait, you two slept with each other?" Tsunade exclaimed.

"Ummm..." Sakura said sheepishly.

"Pay up, Kakashi." Tsunade smirked.

"We didn't have sex or anything and we won't for a while either." Sakura said firmly.

"So, you two just shared the same bed?" Kakashi asked.

"In her defense, we traveled here on a warship and she got really cold." Naruto said.

"Ah, so that's what it was." Tsunade said as she pieced together the puzzle. Then a thought occurred to her. "Can you read each others thoughts?"

"Yea, why?" Naruto asked.

"That's called the Saiyan mating bond. It means you two have created a unique bond where you can communicate with each other via telepathy and you will eventually feel each others emotions."

"Wha...how do you..." Sakura sputtered.

"Your father informed us about this little tidbit. He shares the same bond with your mother." Tsunade said.

"So...hold on a minute... You said mating bond. Does...that mean what I think it does?" Sakura asked nervously.

"That your body has already decided that you want Naruto as your mate? Yes it does." Tsunade smirked.

Naruto had a wide grin on his face while Sakura's face was burning red.

"Oh god..."

"Don't worry. The bond is strong, but it's not infallible. Naruto is just THE best candidate at the time. So you can change mates if you so desire."

"What?! Like hell I am! I love him!" Sakura exclaimed without thinking.

"Really now...?" Tsunade grinned.

"Ah...I mean..." Sakura furiously blushed.

"Damn Sakura, haven't seen you this obsessed with a boy since Sasuke." Kakashi mused.

Sakura just groaned.

"Well Kakashi. I believe you owe me 2000 Ryo." Tsunade smirked.

"Fine..." Kakashi grumbled as he fished out 2000 ryo out of his wallet and handed it to Tsunade.

"Wait, you bet on us getting together?" Sakura exclaimed.

"Yes we did, but back to the matter at hand." Tsunade said as she put away her money. "Now that the bond is still fresh, it's probably wise to seal it."

"Seal it? How does that work?" Sakura asked.

"Well, that would be a little ruffling of the bed sheets, if you know what I mean." Tsunade smirked.

"WHAT?!" Sakura exclaimed.

Tsunade burst out laughing. She hadn't had this much fun since she got Shizune to spill the beans on seeing her boss.

"Wait, what does she mean?" Naruto asked.

"I mean, that the two of you need to have sex to seal the bond." Tsunade clarified.

Naruto spit out some water that he wasn't drinking.

"Not happening until I see a ring on my finger." Sakura said firmly.

"Well, that's too bad for you. You have about a month to seal it, otherwise your body will reject the bond." Tsunade said.

"Reject it? How?" Sakura asked.

"Simple. After the month is over, your mental bond will dissolve and your heart will no longer long for Naruto." Tsunade said matter-of-factly.

"What...but I..." Sakura sobbed, only to feel the comforting embrace of her whisker cheeked love.

"If you don't want to lose him, then you have to seal the bond before the month is over." Tsunade added.

"Screw that. Sakura-chan, if you want to wait a month, then you wait for however long you want." Naruto said firmly.

"It's not that simple... if the bond dissolves, I don't know if it can be remade..."

"According to Retatsu, 90% of failed bonds can't be remade." Tsunade said.

"So what?! I'll just beat the odds and win back your heart every month if I have to. Believe it." Naruto declared with unflinching certainty.

"Knowing you, you probably will succeed." Kakashi commented.

"Hell, if I can't do that, then I don't deserve to be her mate for life."

Tsunade smirked. "Well said, brat. Sakura if you let this one slip by I will never let you live it down."

"I know..." Sakura sighed.

"Oh hey, does her Saiyan blood have anything to do with her increased appetite?" Naruto asked.

"Yes it does. Saiyan's can normally eat up to 50 meals in one sitting 3 times a day." Tsunade informed.

"WHAT?! I can't eat that much everyday! I was eating normally just yesterday." Sakura shrieked.

"A Saiyan's metabolism is absolutely incredible. You can consume massive amounts of food and you can burn it off almost as fast as you can eat it." Tsunade explained.

"How? If that were true, I would have noticed my father consuming massive quantities of food." Sakura said.

"Yea I'm going to ask him about that. But the reason why you can eat so much is because Saiyan's are capable of insane feats of strength. Do you remember the Cell Games?"

"Vaguely, those happened 9 years ago, right? I think I was 8 at the time." Sakura said.

"7 years ago, actually." Tsunade corrected.

"Didn't that Mr. Satan save the world from that monster Cell?" Sakura asked.

"Pffft. Please... That man couldn't fight his way out of a wet paper bag, let alone defeat Cell."

"Our ANBU agents reported differently. They said that there was no way that he could have defeated Cell. No, it was a mysterious team of warriors that defeated Cell. Warriors that used Ki." Tsunade said.

"In addition, it is believed that at least 4 of the fighters who fought Cell were Saiyan's."

"Wait, hold on, what is Ki?" Naruto jumped in.

"It's a more raw and destructive form of chakra." Tsunade said simply."

"How come we've never heard of Ki before?" Naruto asked.

"Because we don't practice it. However, Sakura, you have a natural affinity to ki as do all Saiyan's."

"Who are these other Saiyan's? Maybe they can teach me." Sakura said hopefully.

"Unfortunately we don't know. Their very existence is a mystery to us and the Dragon government denies that they even exist. Personally I think that they honestly don't believe that Saiyan's exist." Kakashi said.

"Well... That's inaccurate. 13 years ago, a pair of Saiyan's attacked East City in Dragon. It is also believed that one of those Saiyan's is one of the ones that fought Cell." Tsunade corrected and clarified.

"Oh that's right. I remember reading something about that." Sakura replied.

"Right. So, if you want to learn about Ki, I know of two people who can help you. Seek out either the Turtle hermit, Roshi, or his student, Goku Son."

"They are both those tournament champions right?" Naruto asked.

"Correct. Goku won the 23rd tournament after defeating King Piccolo."

"Okay. Where do they live?" Sakura asked.

"No idea." Kakashi admitted.

"Roshi tends to keep to himself. I met him about 40 years ago. Tried to get me to put on some skimpy piece of langerei back then and I broke his nose." Tsunade reminisced. "Goku on the other hand... no clue. After the 23rd world tournament he got married. Where he lives I'm not sure."

"So where is Roshi?" Sakura asked.

"Umm... I think he lives on a small island somewhere in the southern coast. Hard to remember honestly."

"Well shoot, let's go right now!" Naruto said.

"Hold it." Kakashi spoke.

"What? We got until Monday before school starts." Naruto protested.

"Which is the entire reason you are over in Dragon in the first place. You are there to learn and soak up the culture. Not get sidetracked with this Saiyan heritage."

"Oh come on! We can at least-"

"Naruto. Kakashi-sensei is right." Sakura replied.

"What? But Sakura-chan..."

"But nothing, Naruto. Yea I want to learn more about my heritage, but this is more important in the grand scheme of things."

"Thank you Sakura, for seeing things my way." Kakashi said.

"Somebody has to, I guess..." Sakura sighed in defeat.

"Yes. Speaking of, I hope this means we won't have anymore "gas station" incidents." Kakashi said casually.

"EH?!" Both Naruto and Sakura said in shock.

"Oh no...King Furry told you...?" Sakura gasped.

"King Furry or his government haven't made the connection yet. Thank God. But our ANBU agents over in Dragon did."

"Hey, in my defense, he wouldn't let me use the bathroom without buying something. Oh, by the way, thanks for telling us that places here don't accept Ryo..."

"Don't change the subject. That was a very irresponsible thing you did. Naruto." Kakashi said in an ice cold tone.

"Hey, this isn't just my fault. He was going to let her wet her pants because they don't take Ryo." Naruto grumbled.

"He's got you there, Kakashi. Even I knew that." Tsunade said.

"The mission dossier spoke of Dragon's currency and King Furry should have told you. If anything else, you could have gone anywhere else to pee. You are both chunin. This behavior is inexcusable." Kakashi lectured.

"Maaan... this is bullshit... OWOWOWOWWW!" Naruto hollered in pain as Sakura twisted his ear.

"Speak to our Hokage with respect, idiot! You didn't have to knock the guy out!" Sakura scolded.

Kakashi sighed on the other line. "Moving on. You two should know that I have an unreleased number of ANBU agents stationed on both the continent and surrounding your perimeter. They have been working tirelessly for months to ensure that this exchange program is on the up and up. So you two will not put it all to waste by acting like a couple of hooligans. Do I make myself clear?"

"Yes of course. We're sorry." Sakura said before twisting Naruto's ear again. "Aren't we?!" She growled to Naruto.

"Yeah yeah...we're sorry..." He said defeated.

"Good. Now I understand that the two of you also fancy yourselves as super heroes." Kakashi asked as the doorbell to their apartment rang.

"Hold on, someone is at the door." Sakura said as she got up to answer it.

She opened the door and saw no one there. Only a single brown package with Kakashi's scarecrow face symbol taped on top of it.

"What's this?"Sakura asked as she picked up the package and brought it inside. "What is this, Kakashi-sensei?"

"Just my silent, unofficial endorsement." He said with a smile on his face.

His students opened the box to reveal two ANBU masks. One designed to look like an orange fox and the other to look like a pink cat.

"Wait... you're actually okay with this?" Sakura asked in disbelief.

"Oh not at all. The seat of Hokage and the Village Hidden in the Leaves in no way condones vigilantism in any form. Especially in another sovereign nation." Kakashi said sarcastically.

"Awesome!" Naruto exclaimed with joy as he put on his mask.

"I-I don't know what to say..." Sakura gasped.

"Think of it as an ongoing training exercise issued by your former Jounin-sensei. You two are some of the strongest ninjas our village has ever produced. It wouldn't do well for the two of you to slack on your basic ninja skills. So perhaps if you were forced to fight in the shadows without anyone ever connecting you to your actions, that would be something." Kakashi smiled.

"Oh yea, that reminds me." Naruto started. "Since Sakura grew her tail, her power, speed and strength have tripled and she's stronger than me without transforming."

"I...am...?" Sakura breathed out.

"That's my apprentice." Tsunade smirked.

"Wait...how do you know, Naruto?" Sakura asked.

"I can sense it and so can Kurama." Naruto replied.

"So... how can you tell that I'm stronger than you?"

"Well we can spar if you have any doubts." Naruto offered.

"Um... yea, why not? I'm bored anyway." Sakura said.

"Awesome!"

"Well, wait a minute... where can we go?" Sakura asked.

"Shit, I don't know. Kaka-sensei, does this apartment come with a training room?"

"No, but it does have a pool."

"It does?" Sakura asked. She walked to the back window and saw a huge pool with an equally large deck around it. "Sweet!"

Naruto soon joined her and saw what she was looking at. "Nice!"

"What say we christen it?" Sakura smirked.

"Yes, I figured that you two would like that more than the flat screen with Netflix package. I had to negotiate really hard with King Furry to get you a pool so don't say that a never did anything for you... Hello...?" Kakashi said into the phone.

"I think they're off enjoying it." Tsunade smirked.

Meanwhile on the exact opposite side of the world. Two teens were splashing each other in their underwear.

There was several times that Sakura had to scold Naruto for staring at her, but she was the one who wore white underwear which made it all see through when they jumped into the water.

But, Sakura got to the point where she just didn't care anymore. It was hotter than hell outside and the water was nice and cool. Besides, she couldn't stay mad at Naruto when he wore those hilariously cute froggy boxers.

"Hey I thought we were going to spar?" Sakura asked.

"We are sparring! And I'm winning!" Naruto declared as he splashed Sakura right in the face.

"Oh we'll see about that!" Sakura laughed as she conjured a rather large wave of water that him directly.

"Oh, we're using jutsus are we?" Naruto smirked.

"No, I didn't even use chakra." Sakura said honestly.

"Oh yeah?!" Naruto said playfully as he held up a Rasengan.

"No Naruto wait!"

But Naruto had already slammed his Rasengan down into the water, creating a massive whirlpool in the center of it which quickly picked up Sakura in its current.

"YOU IDIOT!" Sakura hollered.

Naruto couldn't answer for he too became swept up in the whirlpool. "Woah woah WOAH!" He cried.

Sakura thinking quickly, flew through a set of hand signs. "Water style: Reverse Whirlpool Jutsu!"

Sakura's jutsu canceled out Naruto's jutsu and made the water calm again. Sad to say, this didn't calm Sakura down.

"You dumb ass..." Sakura growled.

"Wow...and to think I laughed when you said you were trying to master that jutsu." Naruto laughed.

"Look at the mess you made!" Sakura exclaimed.

"I mean, it's so very situational that you'd never think you would need it, but here we are..."

Sakura glared at him, her eyes flashing from green to solid teal and back.

Naruto gulped in fear. "Sorry, just trying to lighten the mood."

"You best clean up this mess, lest we get in trouble." Sakura growled.

"Yes, Ma'am." He said as he created a dozen Shadow Clones who all immediately got to work fearing the pink haired one's wrath.

"Seriously... save that stuff for training." Sakura scolded.

"Sorry. Guess I got carried away." Naruto rubbed the back of his neck.

"Yea I know you did." Sakura sighed. "Whatever. I'm gonna dry off and clean up the kitchen."

When Sakura walked out of the pool, Naruto's jaw dropped like a lead brick as he saw her.

"What?" Sakura asked.

"Uhhh.. you're, um... missing something..." blood then started to seep from his nose.

"Huh?" Sakura asked in confusion. She looked at her chest, but it was still covered.

When she looked further down, that's when the horror struck her.

"ACK! MY PANTIES!" Sakura exclaimed as she tried to cover herself.

"Yes you are..." Naruto said. All he could see was pink.

"W-where are they!" Sakura cried out as she tried to find them.

Naruto was snapped out of his dream like daze. "I don't know, I don't know!" Naruto said as he jumped out of the pool, only to fail to realize that he too was missing his bottom trunks.

Sakura looked at his lack of apparel and her nose started to bleed.

'Sweet sage, he's hung like a horse...' Sakura thought in awe.

'Thank you god, Kami, and even that bitch Kaguya!' Inner thought. 'Still wanna wait for that ring?' Inner smirked.

'I don't even know now...'

She saw it wiggle.

'Holy shit, that big bastard would split me in half!'

'You like it, don't lie.' Inner teased.

"Sakura!" Naruto called.

"Huh? What?"

"Someone is at the door!" Naruto said frantically.

Knock knock knock!

"Well I can't answer it!"

"I know! Go hide!"

"You do the same! Come on!" Sakura said quickly as she dashed into the bedroom with Naruto in tow, leaving one of the clones to go answer the door.

Sakura quickly shut the door and put her ear to it, Naruto doing the same.

The clone opened the door to a short and balding man with cheeks as sweet as cranberries.

"Can I help you?" Clone Naruto asked.

The man held up a sopping wet pair of boxer shorts with cute little green froggies printed on them.

"Do these belong to you?" The man sneered.

Oh, so that's where they went." Naruto said sheepishly.

"Had I known a couple of brats would be staying here, I never would have agreed to this arrangement." The man growled.

He stepped inside without waiting to be invited in, forcing Naruto's clone to stand aside at his rudeness.

He looked up and down at all the walls and furniture. Naruto had seen his type before. His old apartment back home had an arrogant bastard for a landlord as well. Always looking for imperfections or voids in the warranty. Never so that he could kick you out, but so that he could charge you extra for the month for the repairs he would never do.

About the only thing the man saw was a few dirty dishes.

He scoffed to himself before addressing the clone. "I am Michael Scarlett, the proprietor of these exceptional apartments you stand within." The man said, trying to sound as suave and sophisticated as possible despite failing at each.

"I'm Naruto Uzumaki." He introduced.

"Yes...and where is Sakura Haruno? I was told to expect you both."

"She's in the bathroom, taking a shower." The clone said.

Sakura took that as her queue to quickly make her way into the bathroom and turned on the shower.

'Might as well take one while I'm at it.' Sakura thought.

The landlord heard the shower running and was seemingly convinced.

"Ah, yes... Your trip must have been tiring."

"In its own special way." The clone shrugged.

"That being said, I'll be brief. I have a strict set of rules here. No parties, no loud music after 9pm, I expect this place to be kept clean at all times, and no rough housing. If I find this place looking remotely close to a shithole, I will notify King Furry and toss you both out on your rears. Is that understood?"

"Uh, yes sir." The clone replied.

"Good." The landlord said before making his way to the door. He paused for a moment. "Enjoy your stay..." he said before closing the door behind him.

"Stuck up prick." The clone muttered before dispelling.

The real Naruto received his clones memories and then stood outside the bathroom. "All clear, Sakura-chan." He called out.

"Okay! I'm in the shower!" Sakura replied.

"Heads up, our landlord is a stuck up prick!" Naruto informs.

"Why doesn't that surprise me!"

Sakura looked out the glass window of the shower to see that she neglected to grab a change of clothes. But with the shower directly across from the door, Naruto would get full view of her assets.

'Shit... I don't know what to do...'

'Well, you got a good, long look at his package, so it's only fair he gets to see you.' Inner commented.

The next thing she thought about was a towel, but she forgot that, too.

'Doesn't look like I've got a choice...' Sakura thought. "Naruto?! Can you help me out?! I forgot to grab a towel and a change of clothes!"

"Sure thing Sakura!" He called back before handing her a towel through a crack in the door.

"You're...um... you need to come in here... I'm too far away from the door." Sakura said nervously.

"Can't you just get out of the shower and pick it up?" Naruto naively asked.

"And slip and fall on my ass?"

'Kit, you are an idiot.'

'What are you talking about? She's a ninja, she's not that clumsy.'

'That's not the point. She's butt naked in a completely see through shower and she's inviting you in. You may not have noticed, but when you lost your boxers, her eyes were glued to your junk and I could have sworn she was drooling. Get me?'

'...Do you think she was hungry again?' Naruto thought, thinking back to how she devoured his home cooking.

'Yea, for your dick.' Kurama smirked.

Little did they know, Sakura heard everything and her face was as red ad a cherry and she silently agreed with Kurama.

'Damn girl, just invite him in and snack on his sausage already.' Inner thought.

'No, I am going to wait damn it.'

'Yea, sure you are.' Inner smirked.

'I am. We confessed our feelings, sure, but that doesn't mean I'm just going to give it all up in one go!'

'You suuuure?' Inner teased as she let the image of Naruto's junk flash into Sakura's mind.

The other side of the door, Naruto and Kurama screamed.

"What? What's wrong?" Sakura asked in confusion.

"I just had a huge dick flash through my head, it was weird!"

'Oops...' Sakura blushed.

"Ummm... Mybad..." Sakura said sheepishly. "That was... um..."

'I mean I might have exaggerated it a little.' Inner thought.

'No, I don't think you did...' Sakura thought.

"Wait...that was...me?" Naruto asked in shock.

"Um...maybe...?"

"Y-your...not mad...?" Naruto asked.

"Why would I be mad? You got what many men dream of having." Sakura said simply.

"I don't know, it's just a bit...weird."

"Hey, to be fair, you saw me so we're even as far as I'm concerned."

Sakura opened the door to the shower and carefully walked to the door. She used her tail to grab the towel from Naruto's hand.

"I'll be out shortly."

'Did she just use her tail like a hand?' Naruto thought. 'Why did I find that slightly hot?'

"I heard that!" Sakura called.

"Ahh! How do we turn this off? I want my own private thoughts again."

"I don't know! This is why I want to find out more about my heritage!"

"You're the one who agreed with what Kakashi was saying!" Naruto argued back.

"Yes I know I did and I'm regretting it. You know what? Fuck it. Let's get our school supplies and go look for Roshi."

"But what about our super hero work?"

"We can save that for at night."

"You sure? Where do we start looking anyway?"

"Lady Tsunade said he's on an island off the southern coast. So that's where we should start."

"The southern coast? Of the continent? Isn't the southern coast like... thousands of miles long?" Naruto pointed out.

"With our senjutsu we should be able to find him. Plus, you can fly."

"Well yeah, but that's still a lot of ocean to cover. And I have no idea what his Chakra signature is."

"Simple, his will be higher than the others."

"Oooh..." Naruto said impressed.

Sakura turned off the shower and stepped out, wrapping the towel around her. Unfortunately for her, it stopped just below her hips, barely covering her womanhood.

"Geez... find a small enough towel?"

"It was the only one I could fine...I mean find." Naruto said as he stared.

Sakura rolled her eyes. "Put your eyes back in your sockets, perv."

"You're the one thinking about my dick all the time!" He fired back.

Sakura blushed. "Uhhh...w-well, I mean..."

Naruto smirked. "Yea, got ya. Who's the perv now?"

"Still you." She huffed out her cheeks.

"Hey then that just makes you just as much of a perv."

"Hey! It's not like I'm sucking you off!" Sakura spat.

Naruto just blushed. "Okay, this just went to a weird place."

Sakura blushed as she realized what she said. "Sorry..."

'We need to restore the status quo. Hit him.' Inner thought. Sakura then lightly punched Naruto into the couch cushions.

"Ow! That hurt..." Naruto whined.

"Well that's what you get for ogling me like that." Sakura smirked with a wink.

'Bitch, you like it.' Inner smirked.

'He doesn't need to know that.'

'We heard that.' Kurama thought.

'DAMMIT!'

Sakura cleared her throat. "Moving on, I'm gonna get dressed."

"W-while I'm still in here?" Naruto stuttered, slightly hoping he would get a show.

Sakura then proceeded to flipping the couch on top of Naruto and then retreated to their bedroom and locked the door.

'Does that answer your question?' Sakura thought.

'Bluntly, yes...' Naruto groaned in his head.

'You'll get to see me whenever you want...when I say so.' Sakura thought.

'That sounds fair...'

Within half an hour they were both dressed and out on the patio.

"You ready Sakura-chan?" Naruto asked as he squatted down to let Sakura climb aboard.

"Yup, let's go." Sakura said as she climbed on Naruto's back.

Naruto exploded into his golden sage mode, enveloping them both in his golden Chakra.

'So warm...' Sakura thought.

Naruto smiled. "I'll always keep you warm, Sakura-chan."

Sakura's face furiously blushed and buried her face into Naruto's shoulder blades. "Just go! I wanna find this Roshi quick so I can have my own private thoughts again!"

'Yeah! We wanna think about Naruto's dick in peace!' Inner thought.

"Alright then!" Naruto exploded into the air and headed to the southern coast

Sakura gripped him tight and soon they found themselves within sight of the ocean.

Then Sakura felt something.

"Naruto! Do you feel that?!" Sakura called. "Sense... 4, no. 6 very strong energy signatures nearby!"

"Yeah! 3 of them are much stronger than me!" Naruto replied.

"Should we check them out?!"

Naruto was about to answer yes when and overwhelming force came upon them and slammed into him.

Naruto and Sakura and knocked loose from each other. The man back flips to right himself in the air to see his attacker.

"What the hell?" Naruto mutters as he gazes upon the largest and most muscle clad man he has ever seen. His shoulders were wider than cars and his hair glowed an unsettling green hue. The man himself had an enraged look on his face. As if the very sight of Naruto was enough to cause him to see red.

"KAKAROT!" The man bellowed at Naruto.

"Who?" Naruto replied.

'NARUTO!' Sakura cried out for him, causing him to remember that she was in free fall.

"SAKURA!"

As Sakura fell to her certain doom, she was quickly caught by a pair of strong arms.

"Look out!" Naruto shouted before throwing her straight up in the air to dodge an incoming energy blast. Naruto then caught Sakura again and made them both dive towards the ground.

"Who the hell is that?!" Sakura exclaimed.

"I don't know, but whoever he is, he's built like a brick shithouse!" Naruto yelled as they flew down towards land.

"RAAAAAHH!" The hulk of a man screamed as he shot a massive Ki blast at Naruto.

Naruto extended out his Chakra cloak into a giant hand to grab the blast before it reached them.

Sadly, the blast was stronger than Naruto's chakra cloak and passed right through it, hitting them both head on.

"Aahhh!" Naruto cried as he shielded Sakura from the blast.

"Naruto!" Sakura screamed.

The huge man then rushed the two of them and drove his gargantuan fist into Naruto's back, knocking out, his cloak disappearing.

Thinking fast, Sakura took a kunai with an explosive tag and lobbed it at the man and detonated it just as it was right next to his ear.

"GAAAHHH!" The behemoth cried as he clutched his ears.

akura quickly shifted her body until she had Naruto on her back as the ground came closer to her.

'Shit, this is gonna hurt.' Sakura thought.

'Clear your mind and channel your energy to your feet and legs.' Inner instructed.

'Huh? What will that do?'

'Just do it.'

But before Sakura could do anything, the hulk of a man slammed them to where they crashed into the ground.

Sakura hit first and very hard. She cried out in pain as she tried to roll Naruto off her.

'Ugh... Naruto wasn't kidding. This guy is insanely strong...' Sakura thought.

'Told you.' Naruto thought.

'How can we fight this guy?'

'We could wear him down with big attacks. Your fists and my Rasengans.'

'That works, plus you can summon Kurama if you need to.'

'I don't think that would be a good idea in this city. Not enough space.'

'Damn... alright then'

'I could summon my toads and you your slugs.'

'Then let's do-' Sakura stopped when Naruto was blasted off of her and the man proceeded to pummel him in the ground.

"Son of a-" Naruto gave the man an uppercut, staggering him backwards. He then proceeded to engage him in hand to hand combat.

The large man rushed Naruto and clothesline him with his arm, slamming the blond through a stone wall.

"Naruto!" Sakura shouted. Something snapped inside her and and ran up to the man, concentrating all her energy into her right fist to deliver a teeth rattling right hook to the man's face, sending him flying through a nearby building. Without wasting a second, she then ran over to the pile of rubble where Naruto was.

Unbeknownst to the Ninjas, 6 people descended from the sky around the large man.

"That's enough, Broly!" A man clad in orange and blue shouted, causing Sakura to turn around.

"W-who are they...?" Sakura asked.

One of the other fighters turned around and saw the two that had engaged Broly first. The one with pink hair was looking right at them.

"Leave, now! You'll die if you don't!" He shouted at Sakura.

At first Sakura wanted to object, but some lingering presence kept her from doing so. She felt as if some far off body part of her's was in pain. She looked back in time to see Naruto cough up blood. She knew then what her priorities were.

The man that shouted at her, clad in blue, suddenly exploded in a golden aura, his eyes turning teal and his once black hair was golden blond.

"LEAVE NOW!" He shouted again.

'Just like the people from the Cell Games...' Sakura thought in awe.

Sakura steeled her face and nodded. She picked Naruto up over her shoulder and leaped away, but not before the man in blue caught a look at her tail.

'She's a Saiyan...' he thought before engaging Broly.

Broly batted away the man in blue and focused on the man in orange.

"Today, you will die, Kakarot..." Broly sneered.

"My name is Goku! Only certain friends call me Kakarot." Said the man now known as Goku.

Sakura was close enough to hear that and she stopped dead in her tracks.

'Goku...?' Sakura thought.

"Kakarot, that name does not befit a Saiyan warrior." The man in blue spandex said.

'What?! T-they're Saiyan's...?' Now Sakura really didn't want to leave. She had found her Saiyan brethren.

'Forget about that! We gotta save our hubby.' Inner said sternly.

Sakura cursed herself on how she was on the verge of changing her mind.

'Right.' Sakura replied as she dashed away from the battle zone.

Her heels dug into the concrete slabs of the roads as she was weighed down by Naruto's limp unconscious body. She could feel his shallow breathing on her neck which was the only reassurance she had that he was still alive.

'Hang in there, hun. I'll heal you soon.' Sakura thought.

'Freaking hun? 5 hours into the relationship and you're already giving him pet names.' Inner smirked.

'I love him and dammit, I will keep him alive, even if I have to give my own life for him.'

'Aw, that's so sweet.' Kurama thought.

'Kurama, you're inside him. How bad is he?'

'Oh he's knocked out like a light.' Kurama reported.

'I meant injury wise.'

'Not good. He's got a punctured lung and a ruptured spleen. 9 broken ribs and several fractures in his spine.'

'And his breathing is still steady?! What is this idiot made of?'

'That's my doing. I'm doing my best to keep him alive.'

'Good, good. See if you can work on stabilizing him until I get far enough from this battle.'

'Done and done.' Kurama said as he continued to seep more of his Chakra into Naruto's system.

'Thank you. I owe you a prime rib roast for this.'

'I don't eat.'

'You'll want to, trust me. I won't take no for an answer.'

'Fine. Just save Kit's life and therefore mine.'

'Done and done.'

It didn't take long for Sakura to reach a clearing far away from the battle.

'This should be good enough.' Sakura thought. She gently laid Naruto on the ground and got right to work.

Her Chakra began working in conjunction with Kurama's to maximize both their healing efforts.

'I got the spine and spinal cord.'

'I've got his lungs.'

'And I've got...nothing...' Inner thought.

'who was that?' Kurama asked.

'Never you mind. Just heal Naruto.' Sakura replied.

BOOOOM

A massive explosion sounded from the battlefield. Sakura looked over to see a massive dome of green energy blinding the horizon.

"Holy shit..." Sakura breathed out.

'Sakura, focus.' Kurama said.

'Right!' Sakura replied. This was no different than healing Naruto during the Battle of the Biiju, when she had to service him while the rest of the Shinobi Alliance fought the 10 Tails.

'Lungs are done, moving to spleen.'

'Almost finished with the spine and I'll move to the ribs.'

'Ya know something? You'd make a good medic.' Sakura said.

'No thanks. I know the shit you deal with at the hospital.' Kurama said firmly.

Sakura sighed. 'Yea... It can be rather trying and thankless at times...'

'Besides, my Chakra would only work on Kit.'

'Fair enough.'

Another explosion rang out from the battlefield, this time, it was a large blue beam that soared over her head. She saw the hulking man caught in the beam as it shot out into space.

"Woah... Those guys are good..." Sakura gasped out.

'Probably could have used them against Madara and the 10 Tails. Would have made that battle so much easier.' Kurama thought.

Then a thought occurred to Sakura as she felt their powers. 'You know something? I thought I recognized their powers. These are the guys who were fighting that Majin Buu guy.'

'How can you tell? That was on the other side of the world and you're not a sensor ninja.'

'I have enough sensory skills to pick out strong energy levels and theirs feel very familiar. It was kinda hard not to feel their power as strong as they are.'

'Right, well whatever. His spine is done.'

'Just finished the spleen, he's stable now.'

'I guess now I just have to wake him up.' Kurama said before going silent for almost a minute.

'Well...?' Sakura thought impatiently.

'Hey, I'm poking him as much as I can.'

'Ha!' Inner laughed.

Sakura rolled her eyes. 'I'll take care of it.' She said as she bent over to whisper in his ear. "Get up! Ichiraku's is on fire!" She shouted.

"THE RAMEN!" Naruto screamed as he shot upward with his kunai ready for action.

Sakura rolled her eyes again. "Glad your up."

Naruto frantically looked at her. "Sakura, we've got to save Ayame and her father! They know the recipes!"

"it's not on fire you bonehead. I only said that to get you to wake up"

"Oh my god..." Naruto gasped. "Don't scare me like that, Sakura-chan."

"The more important question is, how are you feeling?"

Naruto looked himself over. "Stiff, but okay. Wait, where is that guy that attacked us?!"

"Gone." Sakura said simply.

"Gone? You beat him?"

"Yea, I wish. No, the 6 energy levels we sensed arrived and took care of him."

"What 6 energy levels?"

"The ones we sensed before we were attacked."

"Well I can't sense them now. They're gone." Naruto said.

"I know..." Sakura sighed. "But I was able to find out a few thing about one of them."

"Like what?"

"One of them was Goku."

Naruto went wide eyed. "Are you certain?"

"Yes. That's what he called himself to that big guy who I heard them say was named Broly."

Before Naruto could speak, Sakura still had more. "There was a short guy in blue spandex that called him a Saiyan. I think we found who we need to look for."

"Well then let's go after them." Naruto said as he tried to get up, only for a shooting pain to go up his torso.

"Oh no you don't, we're taking you right back to the apartment for some rest." Sakura said firmly.

"Awe! Come on, I feel fine!"

"No. We're going back and if you keep complaining, you'll be eating my food pills every night for a week." Sakura threatened.

"But Sakura, what about your heritage...?"

Sakura breathed deeply. "Your well being takes priority over some species I learned about this morning."

"If you say so..." Naruto said.

"Yes I do say so. So lets get you...woah..." When Sakura stood up, she began to feel dizzy.

"Sakura-chan?" Naruto exclaimed.

"I'm... I'm fine... I'll...I'll be..." Sakura then went limp and collapsed in Naruto's arms.

"Sakura...SAKURA!" Naruto exclaimed.
