Yo… I need more creative ways to say update…

One thing, Naruto's tail and ears are always out, just can't be seen by anyone except people who know about them, Naruto looks like he has normal ears, but his real fox ears and tail can be felt if Naruto isn't careful

I also apologize if Naruto seems out of character again, but I promise the is the last time it will happen unless I see an extremely good opportunity

I don't own Cardcaptor or Naruto


Naruto (fox form) was sitting on the edge of the track watching Sakura win another race at the Tomoeda Elementary School athletic festival. Naruto ran up to Sakura as she took her flag from Rika, only to have to chase after her when she went running up to Yukito and Toya. Naruto managed to get close enough to hear Toya say "She has no other traits" which earned a near bone crunching, chakra enhanced stomp. Naruto sweat dropped as he approach Sakura, "Sakura-chan… you need to be careful, it sounded like you nearly broke his foot with that one." Sakura turned to Naruto, huffing slightly, "I wouldn't have to stomp on his foot if he stopped teasing me."

Naruto let out a sigh, deciding to sit as Toya told Sakura about their Otou, "Otou-san said that he'll come over when he's done with his presentation at college." "I can't complain, it's work."

Naruto perked his head up, "Say, what does your Otou do at the college anyway?" Sakura turned to Naruto, smiling "Otou-san teaches archaeology at college. Not only does he have normal lectures, he's busy going on excavations or research presentations." "So that's where he goes most of the time."

Sakura nodded when the group heard the intercom announcement, "All members of the cheerleading squad, please report in front of the main gate." Sakura looked toward the intercom as it repeated, "That's Tomoyo-chan's voice!"

Yukito looked from the event sheet to Sakura. "Are you participating too, Sakura-chan?" "Yes." Yukito then pulled a camera out of his pocket, "I'll take a lot of pictures." Sakura just smiled, "Thank you Yukito-san." Sakura then started walking toward the front gate, stopping and turning around, "Come on Naruto-kun." Naruto just stood up and trotted along with Sakura, not really sure why she called.

After Sakura finished changing, Naruto waiting outside the room for obvious reasons, she and Naruto ran up to the announcement booth, where Tomoyo was standing near, talking to two other students. Sakura shouted Tomoyo's name as she and Naruto ran up to her. Tomoyo responded to Sakura's call, walking up to her, "Is that the outfit for the routine?" (Described at bottom) "Yeah." "You look lovely…" Tomoyo then put her hands on her face, looking in a dreamy state, "But if there were some frills on the collar, and a large ribbon on it…" Sakura quickly ended Tomoyo's fantasy by changing the subject, "Is your Okaa-san here yet, Tomoyo-chan?" "She said she had a company meeting, but she would rush over when it was done."

Naruto looked up at Sakura when Tomoyo finished, "What does Tomoyo's Okaa do?" "She is the president of a large company. She's very busy, and there are days that even Tomoyo can't see her." "Sounds rough." "Yeah, and I've never met Tomoyo-chan's Okaa-san either." "So that's why you're so excited today." "Yeah! But Tomoyo-chan never talks about her father…" "… Well don't ask, something tells me that Tomoyo is better off not knowing her father if she hasn't said a word about him for three years…" Sakura nodded at Naruto's words, knowing he would know if something is private or not (In a hard life, you learn a lot of things.)

Sakura waited until Tomoyo finished talking to a teacher that had walked toward Tomoyo as she and Naruto were talking, "We have to get going now. Make sure to watch!" "I will be cheering you on from here," Tomoyo told Sakura as the two left for the field.

Naruto stopped when he heard the two male students commented about Sakura, giving a low, menacing warning growl toward the two. The two quickly backed up, knowing about Naruto's reputation to go after anyone he didn't like around Sakura. Tomoyo giggled at Naruto's actions as he ran off, leaving the two nervous students to think, "Well…" Tomoyo then pulled out her camera, filming Sakura as Naruto caught up to her, "I'm ready now! I must record Sakura's bravery on film!" The two students behind Tomoyo faced faulted at Tomoyo.

When Naruto caught up to Sakura, he couldn't help but ask, "Why am I doing this again?" Sakura sweat dropped at that, forgetting that she hadn't told Naruto, "Gomen Naruto-kun, but everyone on the squad ask me to make you the mascot… and I didn't want to upset them…" Naruto just sighed as they approached the rest of the cheerleaders, "I don't really care, just let me know sooner next time." Sakura gave a small nod that only Naruto caught as he went to sit by the booth, waiting for his signal.

As he watched, he noticed Yukito taking lots of pictures, listening to his and Toya's conversation as he waited, "Sakura-chan has gotten much better." "Well, if you compare it to before." Yukito looked away from the cheer show to Toya as he continued, "When she first joined the squad… You know how she tosses the baton, right? She always caught it with her head." Yukito went back to watching as Naruto seemed to smile

He then caught Sakura's signal, taking off toward the group as her baton was tossed into the air. Naruto ran right behind Sakura, stopping and jumping into the air, doing a flip as he grabbed the baton, landing and sitting in front of Sakura with the baton in his teeth. Naruto tossed the baton up into the air, where Sakura grabbed it and set it to her side as the crowd cheered. Naruto then looked at Toya, who was smirking as he stood there. Naruto then said to Sakura, "Your Onii is going to tease us for this…" Sakura sweat dropped, looking over to Yukito, who was clapping, and Toya, who was still smirking.

After Sakura changed back into her gym clothes, she walked up to Toya and Yukito. Toya smirked again as Sakura and Naruto walked up to him, "The kaiju is so uncoordinated that she needs her kaiju fox to help?" Toya's smirk was replaced by a look of pain as Sakura kicked his shin this time. Before anyone could say anything, another announcement was heard, "Next up is the last event of the morning. A race through an obstacle course, for the fourth-graders only. Everyone, please cheer them on as they overcome many obstacles and head for the finish line."

Sakura was standing on the starting line, adjusting her hat with a confident smile on her face when she heard her name being called. She looked to the source of the call to see Tomoyo, Chiharu, Naoko, and Rika sitting in a group. Tomoyo was filming as the other three waved. Sakura waved back, then turned back to the starting line. She looked to her left for a second, seeing something familiar, to look at Li. Li noticed Sakura looking at him, glancing at her before scoffing, turning his head away. Sakura sweat dropped, moving away from Li a smidge when the teacher raised the starting gun, "On your mark…" Sakura and Li moved into the starting position when someone shouted "You can do it!"

Both Sakura and Li looked toward the shout to see Yukito waving, Toya standing next to him still holding the giant lunches. Sakura smiled brighter when Naruto (human form) ran up next to Toya. Toya looked at Naruto with a questioning look, who simply shrugged. Sakura sweat dropped again at Naruto's and Toya's silent conversation when Li turned toward Sakura, "I'll never lose." "Me neither!" Sakura responded, both getting in position again. (Note: Sakura wants to impress Naruto, not Yukito.)

Naruto watched as the teacher fired the gun starting the race. He continued to watch as Sakura, Li, and the other five students crawled through the ladder, then started pushing the giant balls. One student lost control, sending the ball into the crowd and disqualifying himself. Another fell off the balance beam, and the other three got stuck in the net, leaving Sakura and Li in the race. As the two ran the final leg, Li looked at Yukito when he cheered again, causing Li to lose focus and trip over his own feet, making Sakura win.

Sakura walked up to Tomoyo after the race, Naruto jogging up to the two as they talked. When Naruto got there, Sakura was asking about Tomoyo's Okaa-san, "Your Okaa-san isn't here yet, Tomoyo?" "No, but I think she'll be here soon…" "Then you can have lunch with us!" "Is that all right? To intrude on a nice family outing like that." "Of course, lunch always taste better if there are more people to enjoy it." "Thank you very much."

Naruto listened with saying a word, not minding Tomoyo joining since she was a friend, but when he heard Sakura say, "Hey Li." His head shot to Li's direction as Li looked at Sakura, who seemed a little nervous, "U-Um… would you like to have lunch with us too, Li?" While Naruto didn't like Li, he decided not to make a big deal out of it since Sakura was the one that asked. "Why would I… with you--?" Naruto clenched his fist, not liking that Li couldn't even say no kindly, but reframed from beating the gaiki to a pulp do to Sakura asking not to make a scene with Li early that morning, before they left for the school.

Before anyone could say anything else, Yukito called the Sakura and Naruto, saying lunch was ready. As Sakura, Naruto, and Tomoyo started to leave, Li grabbed the back of Sakura's shirt, causing Naruto to grab Li's arm and painfully twist it away. Sakura shouted "Naruto-kun!" making Naruto let go and turn his head, letting Li continue as he rubbed his now sore arm, "I'll have lunch with you…" Naruto looked back at Li, who was now red faced as Sakura blinked in confusion.

The four arrived at the lunch blanket, each taking a seat onto the blanket after taking there shoes off. Sakura sat between Naruto and Tomoyo while Li across from Naruto. Even while Naruto ate, he was constantly glaring at Li as Li watched Yukito, surprised that Yukito was eating so much. Sakura passed an omelet to Tomoyo as a flower petal fell onto the omelet. Everyone except Naruto and Toya stopped eating to see Yukito continue to eat after two plates before, Sakura sweat dropping as Li and Tomoyo looked in surprise. Yukito stopped eating when he noticed the three staring, setting his plate down then scratching the back of his head, "Oh, sorry, I'm the only one eating…" Sakura quickly shook her head, putting her hands to her chest, "No, it's good to eat a lot! It means you're healthy!" Yukito had another piece of omelet in his chop sticks when he spoke, "This lunch is really delicious, too." Yukito then looked over to Naruto, who was still eating, "And Naruto must be really healthy!"

Now everyone looked at Naruto, who had three empty, large obento boxes in front of him, making everyone except Toya and Yukito sweat drop. This time Naruto stopped eating when he noticed the stares, looking up from his plate, "What?" Li and Tomoyo turned away as Sakura waved her hand in front of her face, "N-nothing." Naruto shrugged, finished his plate, then laid back resting with his arms crossed behind his head, closing his eyes.

Li then stood up and looked at Yukito, blushing as he said, "Thanks for the meal." He then slipped his shoes on as he stepped off the blanket, then ran off somewhere. Naruto didn't really care, but turned his head when he heard someone running towards them instead of away. Sakura looked in the direction Naruto turned to see her Otou-san running up to them with a cooler. Naruto sat up so not to be in the way as Sakura stood up, "Otou-san!"

Mr. Kinomoto stopped in front of Sakura, catching his breath as spoke, "I'm sorry I'm late!" Mr. Kinomoto then looked at his watch, "Oh, I couldn't make it in time for the presentation by the cheerleading squad!"

Tomoyo pulled out her camcorder when Mr. Kinomoto said that, "I have it on video." Yukito also pulled out his camera, "And I took a lot of pictures."

"Thank you very much." Mr. Kinomoto put his hand on Sakura's head, "I'm sorry Sakura-san." Sakura shook off the hand to give her Otou a hug, "No, I'm glad that you ran over here for me!" Mr. Kinomoto smiled as Sakura let, then set down the cooler, opening the lid to show six cups of Jell-O, "I made these lat night. I borrowed the refrigerator at the college, so it's very cold." Everyone but Toya gave a small cheer, Sakura clapping her hands together. As everyone enjoyed their Jell-O, Sakura asked her Otou, "Hey, is there more of this Jell-O?" "There's some in the fridge back home."

Sakura took another bite, holding the spoon in her mouth she thought, "When we get home, I'll give some to Kero-chan too." Naruto sent her a glance, "If we don't eat it first!" Sakura giggled at Naruto's joke, knowing it was a possibility that would happen. Mr. Kinomoto then stood up saying he was going to throw away the trash, Toya and Yukito offering to help. As the three walked away, Naruto let out a loud yawn, catching Sakura's attention again, "Stayed up too late reading those scrolls, Naruto-kun?" Naruto nodded, "Yeah, lost track of time. Well I'm going to find a tree and take a nap. You'll know where to find me." And with that, Naruto walked off, leaving Sakura and Tomoyo to talk.

As Sakura took another bite of Jell-O, Tomoyo turned around when her name was called to see a woman wearing all red with her hair brushed over to one side. "Okaa-sama!" Sakura turned from her Jell-O, standing up to face the woman as Tomoyo introduced them, "Sakura-chan, allow me to introduce… This is my Okaa-sama." Tomoyo's mother eyes widened at Sakura, who blinked in confusion. Tomoyo's mother then moved one hand to her mouth as she spoke, "Oh, I'm sorry. I'm Sonomi Daidouji. Thank you for being such good friends with Tomoyo all the time."

Sonomi then gave a small bow, which Sakura returned as she spoke, "That's not true. I'm always the one being helped out…" Sonomi then bent down to look at Sakura, "You really are cute. You look a lot like someone I know…" Sakura blushed at the compliment as Sonomi stood up again, "I've heard a lot about you from Tomoyo, but she never told me your last name. Would you care to tell me what it is" Sakura looked away as the answered, "Oh, Um… Kino-"

Sakura was interrupted by Mr. Kinomoto walking up and calling her, causing Sakura to turn around smiling. Sonomi looked to the source of the call, then scream in surprise, "AAAHHHHHH!!! KINOMOTO-SENSEI!!!" Mr. Kinomoto looked just as surprised, looking at Sonomi as his glasses fell to the bridge of his nose, "Sonomi-kun..." (I don't get it either…)

Mr. Kinomoto and Sonomi walked off in private, stopping under a tree to talk. Ironically, Naruto was trying to nap in that very same tree. He slowly woke when his fox hearing heard voices under him. He looked down to see Mr. Kinomoto and a woman he did not know talking, his ears picking up every word as spoke. Mr. Kinomoto was speaking first, "I didn't realize it because your last name is different since you were Sonomi Amamiya back when you were a student." Naruto sat up, listening to the entire conversation, now curious as to how Sakura's Otou knew this "Sonomi". Sonomi was holding one hand near her head, index finger touching her forehead, "Sakura, I should have realized it when I heard the name. It was the name that Nadeshiko always said she's use if she had a baby girl."

"Nadeshiko? Sakura's Okaa? What does she have to do with this…?" Naruto thought to himself as he listened.

Sonomi then pointed a finder at Mr. Kinomoto with a glare, "I will never ever forgive you!" Naruto was even more curious when he heard that as Mr. Kinomoto responded, "It was true that Nadeshiko was just a high school girl back then and I was a brand-new teacher…" "Yeah! You were just a fledgling teacher, and you married one of your students!! And it was my dear Nadeshiko to boot!" Naruto sweat dropped as Sonomi turned away, a red aura of rage outlining her as Mr. Kinomoto waved his hand, "Um…" Sonomi then turned back to Mr. Kinomoto, "I had always, always looked after her since kindergarten so that stupid little bugs didn't attach themselves to her... And yet…" Sonomi pointed at Mr. Kinomoto again, "To have such a dumb bug like you get attached to her! You let Nadeshiko die when she was only twenty-seven! How can you be so lighthearted like that!?"

Naruto's rage sparked when that phrase reached his ears, but said nothing as he continued to listen.

Mr. Kinomoto gave a sad smile as he answered, "I promised Nadeshiko that I wouldn't cry." Mr. Kinomoto closed his eyes and gave a small frown at the end as Sonomi widened her eyes, then looked away biting her lip. She was then quick to glare again, pointing her finger, "In any case, I will never ever forgive you!"

The anger Naruto had earlier, was now boiling over as he heard that. Unable to control himself, he stood up shouting, "HEY! Who are you to forgive someone for something they didn't do!!?" Both Mr. Kinomoto and Sonomi looked up to see Naruto standing on a branch high in the tree. Naruto jumped from the branch, landing between the two and standing with no problem, surprising the two as the branch was as high as the school roof. Naruto was glaring at Sonomi, her words reminding him of the treatment he suffered in Kohona for something he couldn't control. Sonomi was quick to recover, staring at Naruto as she spoke, "Who are you and why were you eve dropping." "I'm Naruto Uzumaki Namikazi, and I wasn't eve dropping, you two decided to talk under the tree I was napping in."

Mr. Kinomoto and Sonomi couldn't but sweat drop at the second part, but again Sonomi was quick to recover, remembering what Naruto first said, "Well Naruto, you should stay out of business you know nothing about." "I know plenty! I know you're blaming him…" Naruto points at Mr. Kinomoto "for something he did do and couldn't control! I understand you cared for Sakura's Okaa, but that's no reason to blame someone else for her dying!" Both Mr. Kinomoto and Sonomi looked surprised that Naruto knew about Nadeshiko, Sonomi responding with her own anger, "How would you know!? Has someone close to you in your family died!?" Naruto clenched his fist as he started shaking with rage, hanging his head down as he answered "No…" Sonomi opened her mouth to say something when Naruto surprised everyone in hearing distance, "Because I'm not close to anyone in my family." Sonomi could only whisper, "What do you mean?" Naruto was able to hear her though, snapping his head, showing eyes filled with rage as tears spilled down the side of his check, "I mean I was an orphan since the day I was born!!!"

Mr. Kinomoto looked shocked at the news, he had been around Naruto before and the boy never showed any sadness or misery in his opinion. He always seemed happy and ready to help anyone who needed it. Sonomi also looked shocked, but also sad as she realized she had opened old wounds for Naruto. Naruto didn't care about the looks, anger now in full control as he told and improved version of his past, "Both my parents died the day I was born, in a village near the mountains. My mother died giving birth to me, and I don't know how my father died. I had no living relatives anywhere in the village, so they put me in an orphanage. When word got out about how both my parents died the day I was born, I was branded the demon child. No parent let their kids near me, telling them I was bad and they couldn't go near me, and the ones that were they closest thing to family I've ever had. But they couldn't make me feel like I had a family. Soon all the other kids avoided me, thinking something was wrong with me for not having any friends, seeing as the ones I had weren't always around. It also turns out my parents were very well like in the village, and the villagers didn't take their death well. Guess who they took it out on…?"

Both Mr. Kinomoto and Sonomi took a while to think before their eyes widen in shock, both looking at Naruto. Sakura, Toya, and Yukito, who had walked up when Naruto landed in between Mr. Kinomoto and Sonomi, looked between the adults and Naruto, not hearing the full conversation. Naruto just narrowed his eyes at Sonomi, "You figured it out? They took it out on me." Mr. Kinomoto stood there silent, no sure how to voice his words. Sonomi also stood there, but then narrowed her eyes as well, "You don't expect us to believe that adults would hurt a small child for something you didn't do, do you? Stop lying!" Naruto snapped hearing this, "LYING!!! Does this look like I'm lying!!!!!?"

Naruto then grabbed the bottom of his shirt, tugging it off to show almost his entire torso and back covered in scars. Everyone was speechless at that point, shocked that anyone would torture a child to such an existent. Naruto swung his shirt over his shoulder as he spoke, "And I had most of these before I was seven." No one said anything as Naruto put his shirt back on and started walking away, only to stop when he heard "Naruto-kun!" He looked to Sakura, who had tears forming in her eyes. Naruto simply closed his eyes, "Don't worry Sakura-chan, I'm just going to go cool off somewhere. I'll be fine." Sakura nodded reluctantly, knowing Naruto needed sometime alone as his past haunted him.

As he resumed walking only to stop again after hearing a low "Naruto-san." He looked over his shoulder at Sonomi as she was holding her hands together. She then gave a small bow, "Forgive me, I didn't mean too…" "Forget it." Sonomi snapped straight up, looking in shock along with everyone else, "You didn't do this to me and you didn't know. If there is one thing a refuse to do, it is to blame others for things they don't control." Naruto then looked forward, "I refuse to be like those villagers."

As Naruto was about to round the building, he turned around and smiled, "Hey! Don't let me ruin your day, go have some fun for me!" The group smiled at Naruto, seeing him care about them more then himself. Naruto then rounded the corner before they could say anything.

Yukito had run over to the corner, only to see Naruto was gone. He walked back to the group saying, "He's gone." Toya only closed his eyes crossing his arms, "The kid's fast when he wants to be."

As the group headed back to the front gate after hearing the announcement of the parents' one hundred meter dash, Sakura was lost in thought. She was brought out of her thoughts by a *bark*, turning around just in time to catch a leaping Naruto (fox form) in her arms, "N-Naruto-kun, I thought that…" Naruto smiled in his fox form, "Come on Sakura-chan, when have I even gone far from you." Sakura nodded with a blush, continuing to walk to the front gate while also scratching Naruto's ears. Naruto enjoyed the feeling when he noticed Sakura was wondering to the gate with a blank look on her face. "Sakura-chan…" Naruto didn't get a response, "Sakura-chan…" Again, no response, so he tried moving, nudging, and barking, still no response. Running out of idea's Naruto tried an animal trick, standing up by using Sakura's shoulder as a prop, he turned his head and licked her cheek.

Sakura snapped out of her thoughts when she felt something wet run up her cheek. She turned to see Naruto looking at her, "Finally." Sakura didn't hear this, as another thought was running through her head, "Naruto-kun licked my cheek… a fox lick is a kiss… HOOEEE!!!" Naruto started to worry when Sakura blushed an extremely deep red, "Sakura-chan." Sakura's blush quickly vanished as she turned to Naruto, who blinked and cocked his head sideways, "You ok?" Sakura nodded head quickly, making Naruto shrug and go into his previous position in her arms. Sakura would glance at Naruto occasionally, her blush returning.

Sakura walked over to the announcement booth when she arrived at the front gate with everyone, wanting to talk to Tomoyo. After Sakura walked up to the booth, Tomoyo started speaking, "I guess my Okaa-sama and your Otou-sama knew each other, Sakura-chan." "Yeah." Tomoyo noticed the lack of a response as well as the blush on Sakura's face, curious she asked, "Sakura-chan, why are you blushing?" Sakura's blush deepened, making Tomoyo even more curious. Sakura leaned over to whisper what Naruto did earlier. After she finished, Tomoyo shot out of her chair with an upset scream, "EHHH! Sakura-chan's first kiss and I didn't get to film it!"

Sakura started waving one hand to silence Tomoyo, since she said it rather loud, as Naruto felt a sudden chill. He looked around to see Toya glaring at Naruto with serious intent to kill, making Naruto sweat drop, "W-What did I do now…?" Naruto then heard Kyuubi give a loud laugh from the back of his mind, "What's so funny." "Kit, you are an idiot!" "Huh?" "You kissed Sakura you bone head!" "No I didn't!!!" Kyuubi just laughed louder at Naruto's lack of realization, "A lick is a kiss! Even you should know that!!" "I never…" Naruto stopped as he remembered when he licked Sakura to get her attention. "I DID WHAT!!!?"

As Naruto freaked out, Sakura and Tomoyo noticed Sonomi on the starting line for the race. Sakura turned back to Tomoyo, who had sat back down in her chair, "Tomoyo-chan, your Okaa-san was entering the race?" "No…" "Is your mother a fast runner?" Tomoyo put her index finger on her chin as she recalled, "If I remember correctly, she went to the national championships back in high school." "Hoe!" Both turned back to Sonomi, who was standing next to Mr. Kinomoto, saying something.

The teacher raised the starting gun with a "Ready". He then fired the gun, starting the race. Sonomi sprinted off rather quickly, only to have Mr. Kinomoto to pass by even faster. Sakura, Tomoyo, Toya, and Yukito watched the race with interest, even Naruto was impressed by Mr. Kinomoto. Sonomi seemed angry, trying to pick up speed as flowers started raining from the sky. Everyone stopped watching the race as the flowers increased, making it hard to see. Soon most people were heading inside as Sakura, Naruto, and Tomoyo walked out from under the tent. Naruto jumped out of Sakura's arms, shaking his head from side to side as the smell of flowers hit his nose. Giving a quick look around and seeing no one looking, he turned to human form, surprising Sakura and Tomoyo. "Naruto-kun, are you ok?" Sakura asked, recalling Naruto shaking his head just a second ago. Naruto rubbed his nose, glad the smell was no longer as strong, "Yeah, the smell of the flowers just got too strong for my nose. I had to change forms before I passed out." Sakura nodded in understanding, then pulled out her key.

Tomoyo was surprised that Sakura planed to use magic at that moment, "You're going to use your magic here?" Sakura looked over to Tomoyo as she answered, "Nobody's looking. RELEASE!!!" Sakura used FLY right after summoning her staff, taking herself, Tomoyo, and Naruto, who laughed when he saw Li being held to the ground by Yamazaki for trying to leave the medical room, into the sky (in order). "So is this the work of a Clow card after all." Tomoyo seemingly pulled out of nowhere her cell phone, "At times like this, it is best that we ask an expert about that." Sakura and Naruto sweat dropped when they saw the cell phone, Sakura peaking for the both of them, "W-Where were you holding that?"

After Tomoyo dialed the number, the three waited for Kero to answer. When he did, they heard, "What? I am in the deep abyss of depression!" Naruto sweat dropped again when he heard this, muttering "He must have lost at a game again…" Sakura also sweat dropped as Tomoyo explained the situation to Kero. "That's the doing of a Clow card, no doubt about it."

Sakura responded as she looked at the main quad of the building, "Just as I thought. The main quad of the school is full of flowers now!" "For now, look closely. Where are the flowers flying around from?" Sakura, Naruto, and Tomoyo looked around the school before Sakura pointed over to a roof of a building across from them, "Over there!" Naruto and Tomoyo looked over to a pink sphere making flowers. The three landed on the room, a little distance away from the card. They then saw the sphere was a lady wearing a pink dress with curly hair, dancing as she made flowers. The card then noticed he group, stopping its dance and floating over to Sakura. The card held Sakura for a second, brushing her cheek before taking Sakura into a dance.

Naruto ran up to the card as Tomoyo told Kero what was happening, shouting to the card to gets it attention, "HEY!!!" The card stopped and looked at Naruto for a second, still holding Sakura off the ground. The card then grab Naruto's hand and pulled him into the dance, making him and Sakura hold onto each other so not to fall, and making both blush.

Tomoyo just watched in surprise before Kero snapped her out of it, "So what's going on over there?" "We've gotten into a big mess. Sakura-chan and Naruto have suddenly been invited to dance!" Kero was about to answer when he heard Naruto shout "PUT US DOWN ALREADY". (No he's not actually talking, just being overheard.) Kero sighed at Naruto before continuing to Tomoyo, "It's a young woman with curly hair, right?" "Yes." "It's all right. She just loves fun things."

Sakura seemed to not hear Naruto shout, asking "W-What going on!?" Tomoyo looked at the two dancing with the card, "Sakura-chan, if you don't stop the flowers soon, the entire school will be buried under them!" The card seemed to stop hearing that, giving Sakura a chance to seal it away, "Return to the guise you were meant to be in!" The card the rose into the air before being drawn into the card guise, dropping Sakura and Naruto. Sakura fell near the edge of the roof, nearly losing her footing causing Naruto to grab her hand and pull her back up. Sakura caught the card after regaining her footing thanks to Naruto, looking at the name, "FLOWER?"

The two then heard Kero over the phone Tomoyo was holding, her having walked up to them after the card sealed, "Yeah, the FLOWER card. Sakura, your school had an athletic festival today right? FLOWER gets excited when there are celebrations or fun things going on. I'm sure it was just trying to cheer everyone up by raining some flowers." Sakura was staring at the card, her eyebrow twitching slightly, Naruto doing the same, "And what else can this card do?" "It pops out all sorts of flowers." "T-That's it?" "Well now. You got away without getting into much trouble this time, right?" Sakura was upset hearing Kero, shouting"We were about to suffocate from all the flowers!"

Naruto then got an idea, "Speaking of which…" He walked over to the edge of the room, pulling out his katana. He held his katana above his head, channeling a large amount of chakra into it, forming a mini-tornado. H then swung the katana, making the tornado fly toward the middle of the main quad. The tornado hit the ground, erupting into a full sized tornado for a brief second, short enough not to pick up anyone or thing, but long enough to scatter all the flowers across the city. Sakura and Tomoyo looked in aw, along with everyone else on the ground. Naruto smiled, putting his katana away and walking back over to Sakura and Tomoyo before anyone saw.

As soon as Naruto returned, Tomoyo screamed upsettingly again, causing Sakura to ask, "What's wrong?" out of concern. Tomoyo turned to the two, "This is the second time I didn't get to film an important moment in your life, Sakura-chan." Sakura and Naruto would have face faulted, but the words "second time" reminded them of Naruto's "kiss" making them both turn away blushing.

Naruto quickly got over his, sweat dropping at the sight below them, "T-They've been running the whole time…" Both Sakura and Tomoyo walked over to Naruto, wondering what he was talking about. Sakura also sweat dropped at seeing her Otou finish the race, and Sonomi behind him, not looking happy.

After seeing Sonomi and Mr. Kinomoto walk behind a building as a few students cleaned the remaining flowers, Sakura, Naruto, and Tomoyo followed them, sneaking behind a bush to listen. Sonomi seemed to ranting on Mr. Kinomoto, "I'm so, so, SO, frustrated! It's always been like this since high school! Because I didn't want to give Nadeshiko to my teacher I kept challenging him over and over! But I always lost!" "It would be rude of me to lose to lose to you on purpose." Sonomi seemed to look at Mr. Kinomoto with a little respect in her eyes before Mr. Kinomoto continued, "I knew how deeply you cared for Nadeshiko. So I always did my best aw well." Hearing that seemed to start Sonomi back up again, "I still remember your home with Nadeshiko…" (Sorry, long winded, short attention span.)

Sakura and Tomoyo listened to every word as Naruto repeated the whole conversation quietly, Sakura speaking first, "They seem to be arguing…" Tomoyo then leaned over, whispering an idea in Sakura's ear, causing Sakura to be concerned, "Huh? But…" "It's all right." Sakura then pulled out the recently captured FLOWER, her staff still being out, whispering "Give those two over there flowers. FLOWER!"

Sonomi was still ranting as Sakura did this, "Why are you so good at cooking anyway!?" She stopped when to flowers floated down from the sky, one in front of her and the other in front Mr. Kinomoto. They both caught the flower gently, Sonomi speaking first, "A nadeshiko flower…" Sonomi held the flower next to her face as Mr. Kinomoto held his in front of his face, staring at it intently. Sonomi seemed to calm down greatly, now talking to Mr. Kinomoto quietly as they continued. (Again, long winded, short attention span.)

The three watched as Sonomi and Mr. Kinomoto talked, Sonomi starting to cry, then Mr. Kinomoto hug the crying Sonomi. Soon all three sweat dropped when Sonomi pulled both of Mr. Kinomoto's cheeks after he said something, causing Naruto to chuckle. When Sakura asked what her Otou said, he just chuckled some more shaking his head. The three walked away after that, leaving Sonomi and Mr. Kinomoto to talk. Sakura was talking about what Sonomi said when she met Sakura, "So the person that looked a lot like me was my Okaa-san." Tomoyo quickly responded, as Naruto seemed to be thinking about something, having a confused look in his face, "My mother often spoke about her cousin name Nadeshiko. Apparently the reason she grew my hair out like this was so that my hair would be just like Nadeshiko's"

Just as Sakura was about to say something else, Naruto slammed his fist into his palm, turning to the two girls "Hey! If your Okaa and Tomoyo's Okaa are cousins, then doesn't that make you two related?" Both girls stopped walking and looked at each other, then back to Naruto. Sakura spoke first as Tomoyo was still speaking, "I think it does." Tomoyo nodded in agreement, although she seemed just as confused as Naruto and Sakura.

Then Naruto was pulled into a head lock out of nowhere. He, Sakura, and Tomoyo turned to see Toya holding Naruto as he spoke, "Hey, when Tomoyo said she missed Sakura's first kiss, she wasn't talking about you, right?" Toya tighten his grip at the end to emphasize his point. Naruto started sweating nervously, having no way to explain Tomoyo's meaning as Yukito tried to get Toya to let go. Naruto was then saved as Toya received a powerful kick in the shin from Sakura, causing him to let go and hold his leg as she shouted, "So what if he did!"

Everyone froze at hearing that, even Sakura, who quickly slapped her hands over her mouth, "Umm… What I mean…" But it was too late, Naruto was gone with Toya hot on his trail, making the other three sweat drop. Tomoyo then turned to Sakura, "Naruto is going to have his hands full for a while." Sakura only nodded, knowing her Onii-chan wouldn't let up until he either caught Naruto, which will never happen, or she gets to properly explain, which she has to wait for Toya to clam down.

Meanwhile down the street:

"How the hell did you let him get a hold on your shuriken!?" "I don't know!" Naruto shouted at the fox in his head as he dodged another thrown shuriken, catching it and putting it away so Toya couldn't use it again. Naruto heard the fox comment as Naruto dodged another shuriken, "He has some very good aim for never using a shuriken before." "DON'T COMPLIMENT HIM!!!"

Naruto continued running until Toya ran out of Naruto's shuriken, giving Naruto the opportunity to shushin away with all of his shuriken, also causing Toya to swear out loud before walking home thinking, "I'll get that kid…"


Notes:

1.) Sorry, sorry, SORRY for the late update, school swamp me, and with semester projects here, I won't be able to update for at least two weeks. I will try, but no promises.

2.) I will be starting another fanfic because, a.) another project will help me build ideas for one as i work on the other, b.) i don't want to forget it, since i didn't put it my idea box yet, and c.)its just to good not too work on for me. i will update in a alternating pattern, meaning one chapter for one, then one for the other... after all my projects are done for school that is.

3.) Also sorry for the scars part, but I couldn't think of any other way to make Naruto prove his hard life in Kohona, but I grantee it is the only time the scars will be mentioned, unless requested by reviewers.

4.) As for the tornado, I tried to find a jutsu, but… there were no tornado like jutsu's on any sights I went too, including NarutoHQ and Leafninja

5.) One more thing, I am skipping over the SHIELD card episode, mainly because hardly any action, and a LOT of talking, but I will but a summary in the next chapter.


Reviewer response:

Elemental Dragon Swordman: Li isn't gay, he is just drawn to Yukito's magic since it is the opposite of his own, like a magnate to an opposite magnate

SSJ4Sora: Thank you!!!

Youknowwhatman: No, Li isn't gay and Yukito isn't a girl, it is explained in the first review response, also, personally, I think SWORD is one of the strongest cards, since it can cut through anything AND makes the user an automatic sword master.

Alteris: Thank you for pointing out my mistake, I did post in the first chapter to please report any mistakes you see to me so that I may fix them, which I will do... but i won't correct previse chapters mainly because... thats a lot of words to go through...

Raidentensho: OK the FIREY idea you submitted is now in my idea box, which I keep next to my computer, no seriously I do, and I will try to find an episode where Naruto can train, since training near town will draw attention, especially the destroyed rocks…

Blah81691:Thank you!!!

Shadow Zeranion: Thank you! And yes, Toya and Naruto will be back on good terms after Sakura explains when she meant to Toya.

BabeLe7: Thank you!!!
