Naruto: Dimensional Union Chapter 5
Sasuko was walking through the village after the arguement that Naruto and Naruko had as she then thought about what happened. "What's wrong with me? Why was I in Naruto's bed this morning?" She then started to blush a little "And why was I naked?!" she thought. "Maybe I'll go train a bit." She said as she headed for the Training Field.
Naruto was walking through the village, thinking and arguing with Kurama.
"Come on Kit!" Kurama said.
"Can you be quiet? I'm trying to think." Naruto respond.
"About how cute Sasuko is?" This caused Naruto to blush a bit.
"S-shut up. . . I still love Hinata"
Kurama then started to chuckle. "Can't denine the truth Kit. Besides, you can more then one girlfriend."
"Ugh. . . I'm heading for the Training Field." Naruto as he head off to the Training Field.
When he got there, Naruto started practicing his jutsu when after an hour, Sasuko got there.
"Oh hey Naruto. Your here too huh?" Sasuko jokingly asked.
Naruto turned his head to see Sasuko. "Oh hey there Sasuko. Yeah I am training." Naruto then got a litle depressed about what happened that morning. "Sasuko about this morning I-"
"You don't need to worry about that, it was a total accident and those happen once in a while." Sasuko said smiling at him.
Naruto then start to chuckle. "Yeah, what happened this morning was pretty unexpecting to me too." The two then began to laugh, both of them hiding a blush they both had. "Dammit Kurama! You and your big mouth, now I can't get those thoughts out of my head!" he thought as Kurama chuckled.
Naruko, Hinata, and Sakura were hiding in some nearby bushes watching was going on, consealing their chakra.
"What happened this morning?" Sakura and Hinata whispered to Naruko.
"I'll tell you later." Naruko whispered back. "How am I gonna explain this to them without Sakura knocking Nauto into the stratosphere!?" She thought as she started to studder.
After Naruto was finish laughing. "Hey Sasuko?"
Sasuko then ended her laughing. "Yeah Naruto?"
"Well since we're both here, do wanna spar?" Naruto asked as he tightened his headband. "And maybe to get those thought out of my head." He thought.
"Sure, why not? I haven't sparred since me and Naruko went up against Kakashi-sensei." She said smiling as she tightened the headband around her waist. "Just don't back since I'm a girl."
"As if I would! Dattebayo!" Naruto said as he got into his battle stance. "On the three ok?"
"Alright, Three!" Sasuko called out.
"Two!" Naruto called out.
"One!" They both said in unison as they charged into each other.
-
Naruto and Sasuko continued to spar for an hour until they were both exhausted. They laid down beside a tree trunk and tried to catch their breaths.
"Not bad, Sasuko," Naruto said. "You're pretty good."
"You're not bad yourself, Naruto," Sasuko responded. "I haven't had that much fun sparring with someone."
"Mind if we join you, Copycat?" Naruko said as she walked to the two with Sakura and Hinata in tow.
"Not at all," Naruto beamed.
"Naruto, the three of us were talking earlier."Sakura started, "and we think it's time you took the Chunin exams again."
"Really?" Naruto asked.
"Y. . .Yes, Naruto," Hinata said. "You're still technically a Genin, so you're still below the rest of our class in terms of rank."
"Oh, man! You're right!" Naruto exclaimed. "But only teams of three can enter the Chunin exams."
"That's why Sasuko and I will be joining you," Naruko said. "We're considered Genin in our dimension, too, so it'll be beneficial for all involved."
"I don't have a problem with it, Naruto," Sasuko said. "I actually think it'll help us get to know each other better."
Weighing all his options, Naruto jumped up and said, "What are we waiting for? We've got Chunin exams to pass!"
Sakura and Naruko were relieved to hear Naruto accept their proposal while Hinata walked over and kissed Naruto on the lips. Seeing this, Sasuko felt a little brokenhearted.
As everyone walked away for a celebration dinner, Naruko pulled Naruto aside and said, "Hey, listen, about this morning-"
"Sasuko and I agreed that it was an honest mistake on her part. Don't worry about it."
"Look, it's not about. . . the 'Sasuko-naked-in-bed-with-you' thing. The way I yelled at you, it wasn't proper of me. I'm just a little protective of Sasuko because I really want the best for her. Unlike your Sasuke, she's very vulnerable, so-"
"You're looking out for your friend. There's nothing wrong with that. Look, just forget what happened, 'kay?"
Naruko looked at Naruto with a confused expression on her face. He was willing to overlook the flaws of others and only focus on the positive aspects of his friends' characters.
With a subtle smirk, she muttered, "You know, Copycat? You're not half-bad."
"Thanks," Naruto said. "Now let's catch up with the others. Last one there's paying for everyone"
"What? YOU DAMN CHEATING COPYCAT!" Naruko screamed as she chased after Naruto.
As soon as they left, three figures emerged from the bushes.
"How 'bout that? Naruto Uzumaki's competin' in the Chunin exams this year."
"The hero of the Fourth Great Shinobi War. I can hear the harmony of a good challenge already."
"Eh, he's cute and all, but there's plenty of things I can fix about him."
"Who cares about any of that? All I know is our fight's gonna be a damn good one!"
-
As the group was walking to have a celebration dinner, Hinata noticed that Sasuko was alittle depressed, probable about her kissing Naruto. "Hey Sasuko. . . can we talk?"
Sasuko looked up at her. "What about?"
Hinata waited till Naruto was out of their hearing range. "You like Naruto don't you?
Sasuko was surprised as she then started to blush. "I-I don't know what you talking about!" she frantically said.
"Its alright, you can tell me cause I'm your friend and friends tell each other their secrets. That and you keep blushing around him like I used to." Hinata said smiling at her.
Sasuko was stil blushing as she took a deep breath and said, "Yeah. . . I am in love with Naruto. . . I don't know when it happened exactly but I am indeed in love with Naruto. . . are you mad Hinata? I mean it was obvious that your male counterpart was in love with Naruko and-" She was going to say when Hinata hugged her.
"Its alright, I don't mind." Hinata said, surprising Sasuko.
"Y-you don't?" Sasuko asked.
"No, infact I don't mind sharing him if that's alright?"
"R-really?" Sasuko asked. She couldn't believe what Hinata had said, that she offered to share Naruto with her as she started to cry and hug Hinata. "Thank you."
Hinata then smiled at her as she dried her tears. "No problem, now we get going before Naruto and the others get worried."
"Good idea." Sasuko said as the two went and caught up with the others.
-
Hinata and Sasuko arrived at the restaurant where the others met to have their celebration dinner. As soon as everyone went inside, they saw a small crowd around one of the tables. As they moved closer, they could hear two people talking to each other.
"You never learn, do you? You can't beat me."
"Dream on, Choji! This time I'll finally wipe the floor with you."
"Alright, your funeral."
"We'll see."
Naruko, Naruto, Sasuko, Sakura and Hinata pushed their way through the crowd to see Choji Akimcihi sitting across from Eiki Chihagane, both with a fire in their eyes.
"First one to eat 20 rounds of yakitori wins," Choji said.
"Challenging me with my favorite food will be a fatal mistake on your part, my big-boned friend."
Before the challenge could begin, however, a black-haired girl walked over to Eiki and punched him on the head so hard it broke the table. While everyone else backed away from her out of fear, Eiki quickly recovered and yelled, "What the hell was that for, Lauren?"
"We don't have time to be wasting on these stupid challenges of yours. We are competing in the Chunin exams in a couple weeks, you know," the girl responded.
"I know, but it's still important to let off steam every once in a while," Eiki complained.
Jiyoon walked over to the other two and said, "Eiki, it's time for us to get serious. Worry about Choji after the Chunin exams."
"Party-poopers!" Eiki pouted and turned his face away from his friends. He then spotted Naruko in the crowd and excitedly yelled, "Naruko! How's it going?"
Naruko responded, embarrassed, "I'm alright, Eiki."
Lauren walked over to Naruko and asked, "How do you know Eiki?"
"We just met this afternoon, actually. I don't know him that well."
"I see. Well, my name's Lauren Miyamoto, you already know Eiki, and the other guy's-"
"Jiyoon Vihasi. We met him along with Eiki."
"Alright. Now, why don't you introduce yourselves?"
"I'm Naruko Uzumaki, and these are Sakura Haruno, Hinata Hyuga, Sasuko, and Naruto Uzumaki," Naruko said. She refrained from revealing Sasuko's last name out of fear that everyone would treat Sasuko badly because of the Uchiha clan's bad reputation here.
Lauren looked over to Naruto and said, "So, you're the hero I've heard so much about. Rumor has it you're still a Genin, right?"
An embarrassed Naruto laughed and said, "Yeah, I've still got to take the Chunin exams."
"Are you competing this year?" Jiyoon asked. "I know I'd be honored to compete against you."
"Yeah, I am, with Naruko and Sasuko as my teammates."
"That's wonderful!" Eiki yelled. "A group of strangers banded together as a team in order to strengthen their bonds of friendship; is there anything more moving, more romantic, more inspiring than-" Eiki never got to finish before Lauren pounded him to the ground again.
"Just say 'Good luck,' you idiot," Lauren annoyingly said before dragging Eiki by the leg out the door. "Jiyoon! Let's go. We've got training to do."
"Be right there!" Jiyoon called out. He then turned to the group and said, "I'm looking forward to the exams this year now. Let's give it our all, 'kay?" With a quick smile, he followed Lauren and Eiki out the door.
Sakura then turned to Naruto and said, "Tomorrow we need to talk to Lady Tsunade to get you, Naruko and Sasuko registered for the exams."
"You're going to take the Chunin exams again, Naruto?" Choji asked, now getting up to leave after eating his and Eiki's yakitori. "Don't sweat it. You'll make Chunin for sure. I'm sure your two new friends will do fine, as well."
"Thanks, Choji," Naruto said.
After Choji left, Naruto, Sasuko, Naruko, Hinata and Sakura sat down to enjoy a nice dinner. Everyone laughed and talked about the exams during the night, even the Chunin exams Naruko and Sasuko competed in back in their dimension. After an hour, everyone went home to rest up before Naruto, Naruko and Sasuko began their training for the Chunin exams.
That night, as she went to sleep, Sasuko felt happy for the first time since her childhood. Grateful that Hinata was willing to share Naruto, Sasuko could only dream of the three of them living in peace raising children after the Exams were over.
