I'M BACKKKKK!! oh how i've missed you guys! -hugs all of you- :3 anyway this is a rather short chapter but i felt that it deserved to be its own while i think of what to do lol
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Naruto!!!! duh!! (stay tuned [in other words read the bottom after the story] for another surprise!!)
In Lady Hokage's Office back in Konoha
"Lady Tsuande," The ninja gave a slight nod still trying to catch his breath after the heart bursting run back through the gates from the surrounding forest.
"Where are they?" The Hokage asked, becoming more impatient by the minute.
"Oh Lady Tsuande," The ninja shook his head as if the information would be too horrible for her ears. "It is quite terrible; I know how much you trusted that Nara boy."
"What about him?" Tsuande asked, anxiousness coming over her as she sat up straight to catch every word.
"I'm afraid that the sand Jonin has messed with his loyalty, or it could be the other way around, you never know," He said falling back into the chair behind him to add to the effect. "We watched them like you ordered to see if there was a problem- Lady Tsuande they-."
The ninja stopped overcome by his temper.
"No what!?" Tsuande was leaning over her desk now and after a moment's pause the ninja leaned in.
"They're planning to over throw Konoha," He said, before the Hokage could say anything he continued. "The boy is obviously smart enough to and the girl has the mindset. Together they could do it- apart they haven't a chance."
"I can't believe it," Tsuande leaned back in her chair awestruck at this information.
"This happens, when two people get together they can act completely different. If I remember correctly, the sand Jonin is to marry a leaf ninja?" The Hokage nodded and he continued. "Well they seemed to be... romantically involved. They need to be split. Pick her fiancé ahead of time so they won't be able to go through with their plans!"
The ninja was overcome by passion for his country that he was standing, bending over the desk separating him from Tsuande.
"Shikamaru was so promising," Tsuande shook her head.
"Don't blame him, or the girl," The ninja said lowering his voice. "Destiny is just running its course."
"You're right. I'll be sorry to do it but we can't have them together any longer," Tsuande agreed. "Bring me the files of all the single male ninjas in the village that are of age."
"Yes Lady Hokage," The ninja gave a nod and left the room grinning to himself.
Romance at short notice was his specialty.
