Thoughts circled his head as he made his way back to Konoha, and a chilling thought struck him.
'She wouldn't be the one who kill asuma' He thought unwillingly. He shook his head violently. 'No, of course not'
'...Right?'
Shikamaru slowly walked back to Konoha, thoughts swirling in his head, soon giving him a headache. 'Ouch.'
The gates to Konoha arrived sooner than he had anticipated. He greeted the guards and
made his way back to his house, where he still lived with his mother. He still lived with his mother. He had a whole lot of shit to think about.
"Oi, what're you doing home so late?" Yoshino asked, eyes narrowed.
"Sorry, Mom. I had to... visit someone..." He said scratching the back of his head. Yoshino immediately stood up and confronted him.
"A girl?" She bluntly asked. He blushed slightly, and looked away from her glaring eyes.
"Oh, my god..." Yoshino covered her mouth in disbelief. "I don't believe it. Someone is attracted to you."
"Mom! What the hell! I don't understand how Dad got married to you." Shikamaru grumbled.
"You wanna go?" Yoshino smirked and challenged him. Shikamaru looked at her confident face, and frowned. Her brown eyes flashed to teal, and her dark brown hair flashed to golden blonde.
"Not now mom." he said reluctantly and walked to his room. Yoshino frowned and watched him walk away.
'What's happened?' She wondered.
