Been working on this chapter already too, nothing really much to say in this A/N's notes, and its already too early to reply to comments. So! Lets just get to it!

Disclaimer: I don't own shit!

Me: Damn it... Kishimoto!

My Assistant: *giggles at me, then hides before I can identify where the sound is coming from* Tsukune-sama *she said with a singsong tone*

Me: *glares in the general direction of the voice* Better have something good to tell me.

My Assistant: *walks over to me, and straddles me, giving me a good view of her cleavage, in her tight shirt* Oh I do Tsukune-sama *she says, purring lightly, as I lean my head back, pinching my nose to stop the nosebleed* Kishimoto has just called me, and wants to tell you that you now own Naruto.

Me: *anger tick* You are teasing me again...

My Assistant: *shakes her head a bit* Yep, but I love you Tsukune-sama!

Me: *grabs the rope, then ties her up, and drags her to the room she is now familiar with* You're some type of masochist or something... *I mutter to myself as the door closes, moans can be heard from the room*

Anyway! While my Assistant enjoys her massage! Hajime!

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo o

Naruto woke up, with his head placed on Sakura's lap, causing him to smile, seeing her sleeping soundly, he just lays there, taking in the beautiful sight before him, and after a few minutes Sakura woke up. "Ohaiyou Tenshi-chan. (T/L: Angel-chan)" Naruto says softly, smiling gently.

Sakura giggles, then blushes "Its afternoon, but thank you." Sakura says, then tucks a little hair behind her hair, then leans down, and kisses Naruto, who happily kisses her softly back. "Tsunade-sama wants to see us for a mission debriefing." Sakura says, and nods over to Yamato who was just watching the cute scene silently, just having woken up too.

Yamato chuckles lightly, then stands up, stretching lightly. "I owe you one Naruto, all it took was a good nap to be good to go." Yamato said, then turned to leave the cute couple to have a moment alone. "We have about 30 minutes before we are expected to show up in her office, use this time wisely." Yamato says over his shoulder, then walks out of the room of Naruto's living room.

Naruto silently thanked Yamato for being one of the few of his sensei's that knew to take social que's. "I am glad you are ok, I don't know what I'd do if I lost you." Naruto says, then raises a hand to Sakura's cheek, stroking it with his thumb, and smiles tenderly at the pinkette.

Sakura cupped his hand with hers, and giggled cutely "I'm sure you'd find a way, at least to keep going until you become Hokage." Sakura said, then held his hand, interlacing her fingers with his.

Naruto shook his head, and squeezed her hand lightly. "No, I don't think I could, because without you, my life, my goals, all that make me, me, would be irrelevant." Naruto said truthfully to her.

"I love that I'm important to you, but we are shinobi after all, so even if the other dies, the other has to keep living, we are the 'Knights to protect the king' (I will try using quotes from the anime, or manga I remember.)" Sakura, her expression serious, not joking even partially.

Naruto sighed lightly, and nodded "True, but I will protect you no matter what." Naruto says lightly.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Meanwhile at Shizune's side office next to Tsunade's...

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Yamato smiled lightly, and kissed Shizune softly, causing Shizune to blush, and kiss him back. "While I was trapped in Kabuto's layers, I couldn't get you off my mind." Yamato said softly.

Shizune blushed, and giggled softly, loving his affection. "I was trying to figure out how to save you, and finally convince Tsunade to send someone out to save you, being the only mokuton user alive, you are a great asset to her, and the man I love." Shizune said, smiling softly.

Yamato got down to one knee, pulling a soft velvet box, from the jewelry store he had stopped at before coming here. "I did a lot of thinking while I was trapped, and decided if I ever made it out of there alive, I'd find you, and marry you." Yamato said then opened the box, inside was a beautiful silver ring, with 50 carat diamonds shaped into a heart on it. "Will you marry me?" Yamato asked with his normal nervous face, Shizune couldn't speak, only nodded, smiling brightly.

Shizune let out a squeak of surprise, and joy as Yamato picked her up, and swung her around. "I love you Yamato!" She exclaimed, wrapping her arms around his neck, kissing him lovingly.

Yamato smiled in the middle of the kiss, and kissed her back lovingly. "I love you too my dear beautiful Shizune." Yamato said, tenderness apparent throughout his tone, and nuzzled her. "Shimate... Even though I want to spend more time with you, I have to talk to Tsunade." Yamato said, pulling himself from Shizune's grip, and sighing despondently, leaving a happy Shizune.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Thought Yamato, and Shizune deserved some love, but lets get back to our main couple!

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Naruto, and Sakura walked to the Hokage building, taking the direct route up to her office by the window. "Seems we are on time, unlike Yamato-sensei." Naruto said, laughing a bit at Yamato's Kakashiness was starting to show up, as they entered through the window.

Tsunade had sensed them a few minutes ago, and waited for them to get in front of her to directly address them. "Mission report?" Tsunade said, then privacy seals went up just as Yamato closed the door behind him, walking over to stand next to Naruto, and Sakura.

Naruto nodded, and tossed Tsunade a scroll. "Obviously it was a success" Naruto said with a chuckle, motioning to Yamato. "But I was met with some resistance, but neutralized the threat." Naruto said, as Tsunade opened up the storage sealing scroll, revealing Kabuto's head, looking normal, sage mode had long since worn off for him, but his glasses were cracked slightly.

Sakura had to look away from the site, even though she had seen some gruesome things on the field as a medic nin, she saw how cleanly it was separated. "You did that Naruto?" She asked questioningly, looking at the blonde in question, who had a dead expression in his eyes, causing Sakura to shiver slightly. 'I hope I never see that look again...' Sakura says to herself.

Naruto nods, and catches a little plastic black card with his name on it. "Since it evolved into an S Rank mission, you get your agreed payment, and the bounty for Kabuto Yakushi, also I have a surprise for you, since it's your 18th birthday, but I doubt Sakura's going to like it, seeing as she is your girlfriend." Tsunade said, looking at the two confused, and Yamato stiffened a bit.

Yamato figured what she was going to mention, because he was of the few that knew his full name was Naruto Uzumaki-namikaze, the Namikaze were a once famous clan in the leaf village, that specialized in headstrong, and hearty ninjas, who were always the best of the best.

Sakura raised an eyebrow to what Tsunade was getting at, because she was one of the many who knew nothing of Naruto's heritage. "What will I not like, Tsunade-sama?" Sakura asked curiously, as her former teacher pulled out a bottle of Sake, and took a shot.

Naruto was equally as confused as Sakura, but kept quiet.

Tsunade took a few more bowls like it was the water of courage from the hidden waterfall village. "Its about the clan restoration act." She said bluntly before going on, and explaining. "Its an act set forth, in order to restore clans such as the Uchiha back, through their last known heir, marrying three women, and having children to further the legacy." Tsunade said, noticing Sakura's seemingly calm expression, but she on the inside was a sinking feeling. "As such, being Naruto's full name of Naruto Uzumaki-Namikaze, he falls under said act, and the civil council is forcing me to tell you, by this time next year, you need three wives." Tsunade said bluntly to Naruto, who's jaw just dropped at this, but he already had known his full name.

Yamato sighed, knowing it was coming, then just shook his head. "3... 2... 1..." Yamato counted down as the information finally sunk all the way into Sakura's brain.

"WHAT!?" Sakura exclaimed, proving her title of Pink Banshee right by waking up everyone that was taking an afternoon nap, including one Nara, who was laying in bed with a sleeping Temari, laying on his chest, seemingly unaffected by the sudden shrill cry. "Tsunade-sama! But... But... b-!" Sakura started to say, but was cut off by Tsunade who was glaring at her.

Naruto was still dumbstruck by this, and blinked a few times before looking at the black card in his hand, realizing it was probably his inheritance. "I have to marry three women before next year!?" Naruto said, finally understanding what it meant, Naruto was never the brightest, Tsunade just nodded, feeling a migraine coming on. "I won't marry anyone since I am with Sakura!" Naruto exclaimed with what Naruto thought was Tsunade's bad joke.

Tsunade face palmed, then looked to Sakura, with a semi pleading expression. "Sakura... You have been with me on a few times that I have had to deal with the civil council, please explain to him, how I nor, he has a choice in this..." Tsunade said, massaging her temples a bit.

Yamato was sneaking out of the increasing in volume room after leaving what information he had gathered while he was captured, and snuck out the window, and landed next to Shizune.

Sakura, a nodded dumbly "As much as I hate to admit, and even more hate the idea of sharing you... But when they say something, its final, or you are kicked out of the village..." Sakura said, not liking a single word that passed her lips, squeezing Naruto's hand lightly. "As long as I get to be one of the wives." Sakura said, trying to make the best of a bad situation.

Naruto was caught off guard by Sakura's willingness to cooperate with such a thing. "Of course, you are the woman I love after all!" Naruto exclaimed, through the open window, a cute blunette was walking by, when she listened to part of the conversation, and hopped up to the office.

Hinata stepped in through the open window. "A- ano... If Naruto-kun, and Sakura-chan don't mind, I could be one of Naruto's wifes..." Hinata said, her blush in full force, as she fought to keep from fainting from the sheer embarrassment of what she had just openly said, poking her fingertips together in that cute little moment she has when she's really embarrassed.

Everyone was caught off guard by her forwardness, not able to say anything in shock, but Tsunade was the first to speak. "Alright then..." Tsunade said, writing down the first two wives down on her list to be submitted to the civilian council upon finishing the list. "One more." Tsunade put bluntly, then looked at Naruto who seemed to be in deep thought.

Naruto was in fact, in deep thought, trying to figure out who he would possibly take as his last wife, then a lightbulb seemed to go off in Naruto's head. "Yata! Ayame-nee-chan!" Naruto said, then shunshied down to his favorite ramen stand, leaving a confused room of Kunoichi. 'I am sure she will be fine with it, because she is open minded nee-chan!' Naruto exclaimed as he sat down in his favorite of all times ramen stand, seeing Ayame was the only one on duty at the moment. "A- Ayame-nee-chan..." Naruto trailed a bit as the brunette in question walked up.

"Naruto-kun?" She asked curiously, before smiling at her favorite customer / love, but she would never tell him that just yet. "How about the usual?" Ayame asked with a soft tone to her voice.

Naruto smiled, and nodded happily at the offer. "I have a question for you too." Naruto said, as Ayame started cooking his Miso ramen, and while it was setting, Ayame turned to Naruto, giving him her attention, an unspoken cue to ask the question. "Actually its two questions, but do you know what the CRA is?" Naruto asked, Ayame nodded her head lightly.

Ayame had a feeling where this was going, because she was one of the few that knew about his full name. "Yeah, what of it?" Ayame asked curiously, but allowed him to continue.

Naruto gulped a bit, and chuckled nervously, his arm behind his head. "Well you know my full name, and since I turned 18 recently, the CS, initiated the CRA, so I have to take three wives, which leads me to me to my last question..." Naruto said, trailing a bit in nervousness.

Ayame knew what was coming next, but it didn't alleviate the nervous feeling that filled her, as she leaned on the countertop, with a curious look on her face. "What is it?" Ayame said, feigning ignorance to what was next to be asked, a light purr to her voice as she spoke.

Naruto may have been dense, but he didn't miss her purring, and knew she was far from dumb, she could give the IT division a run for their money.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Meanwhile at IT headquarters, Anko, and Ibiki, along with the rest of the IT team sneezed simultaneously.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Naruto gulped, as he garnered the courage to utter the next few words. "Will you marry me, Ayame-nee-chan?" Naruto asked in a meek, and nervous voice, biting his bottom lip a bit.

Ayame was speechless, she figured thats what he was going to ask of her, but actually hearing it, made her at a loss for words, not trusting her voice to come out as anything more than a squeak, she nodded, then leaped over the counter, glomping Naruto out of his seat.

Naruto chuckled lightly, then wrapped his arms around her, picking them both up easily, kissing her lovingly. "I was afraid I'd have to dodge a pot or two." Naruto said jokingly.

Ayame giggled, blushing a bit at the kiss, but kissed him back softly. "That did pass through my mind, but then I knew I couldn't bring myself to try, and harm you."

The rest of the girls found Naruto, with a little help from Sarutobi's crystal ball that was passed down to the next Hokage. "So its the ramen stand girl for your third?" Sakura asked, looking slightly miffed at the choice, because she was still not liking sharing Naruto, and wanted it to be someone she knew well, but was glad it was someone Naruto was happy with.

Naruto chuckled lightly, and nodded. "Yep, but her name is Ayame, and she is my ne-" Naruto stopped, and corrected himself. "One of the women I love." He said with a tender tone, then a piece of paper slipped out of his pocket, where the black bank card was held.

Hinata spotted the stray piece of paper, and picked it up. "Ano... Naruto-kun..." Hinata trailed gently trying to garner her loved one's attention, and succeeding much to her surprise. "This piece of paper fell out of your pocket, with an address on it, talking about the Uzumaki-Namikaze..." Hinata said, surprising herself she finished that line without stuttering.

Naruto gently took the piece of paper, and read it, realizing where it was. "This is on the west side of town. Ayame-chan, I'll take that ramen to go." He said with a soft smile, then Ayame remembered she was still on duty, rushing back to stand, and putting Naruto's order in a to go set up. "Think old man Teuchi would be mad if we closed up shop a few minutes early?" Naruto asked, and Ayame shook her head lightly, then went back, and closed up shop.

"Nope, lets go Naruto-kun!" Ayame said, then wrapped her arms around his right arm, only for Sakura to do so with his left arm, and Hinata holding onto the tail of his shirt.

Sakura's competitive side kicked in, as she gripped Naruto's arm a little tighter. "Yeah, lets go home." Sakura said in a soft tone, and Naruto nodded, all but wobbling to walk.

"Guys... Its really hard to walk like this..." Naruto said lightly, but they didn't seperate from him. "I have an idea, but I need my arms for it." Naruto said, they reluctantly let go, and then Naruto formed his fingers into a cross shape, calling out his signature jutsu. "Shadow clone jutsu!" Naruto exclaimed lightly, as the smoke cleared, two clones appeared, holding Hinata, and Sakura's hands, while the original was holding Ayame's hand, then they started walking for the Uzumaki-Namikaze compound, which was going to be their new home, living together.
