Finally we got to go and then I had vacation. Soooooooo that's why it's late. Read and Review looking forward to them.
Sasuke happily dragged Naruto by hand to god knows where. But Naruto didn't seem to care as he was content in just holding Sasuke's hand. "Where are we going." Naruto ask simply to start conversation. Sasuke turned back a slight blush gracing his face as he realized he had no idea where he was taking them. He just wanted to spend some time alone with Naruto even if he didn't know why.
Carefully thinking of his response Sasuke said "No where really. I just want to spend time with you..." Naruto did a little happy dance in his mind. 'Yes! Sasuke is already starting to like me!'. "...Is there anywhere you want to see. I know all the local places. I'll give you a tour!
We can do so much together!" Sasuke said continuing to ramble on and on. While Naruto listen happily his tails shaking at the thought of spending the whole day with Sasuke. He knows that he should probably feel like a pedophile for feeling this way about a kid, but he didn't really give a damn. He was happy, Sasuke was happy, and that's all that mattered.
Their day onward consisted of Sasuke showing Naruto his favorite places and things to do. Having Naruto's complete attention as he engraved every detail into his brain. Sasuke's likes and dislikes were all equally important to him. He wanted to know everything. He learned that Sasuke had a strong since of protection. That he loved his family more than anything. Even his so called 'annoying' older brother.
Sasuke surprisingly couldn't swim even though the ocean was very near to the outskirts of the kingdom seeing as it was their trading post. But Sasuke never had time for such things to busy working. Naruto also learned work got in the way of many new things in his life he almost couldn't come to the festival where they first met because of it. Though he didn't regret any of it because he loved to help his family. Not that they were struggling or anything. Just he wanted to help give everyone more. He was kind of sad on having to miss out on so much but took pride in it. But that's why Sasuke was so happy to have the day off.
Naruto of course felt bad about that and was quick to tell Sasuke he would help him with work and to try a lot more new things. It was about mid day and Sasuke and Naruto were heading back to the house for dinner when Sasuke realized that they had spent the whole day talking about himself. He had learned nothing about Naruto. Every time he tried to indirectly bring up the subject Naruto would simply ignore it. He seem to not like castle life so much.
"Naruto, why don't you like castle life? Aren't you treated as a god or something like that? Shouldn't that make you happy?" Sasuke ask catching Naruto off guard. Before he chuckled at Sasuke's pure honesty something not easily found in the people that surround his life. Always having greed intention or alter motives.
"Sasuke have you ever felt trapped. Like you were just being suffocated. And you knew even if you left the place that made you feel this way most it wouldn't change anything. Because everyone in the world felt the same way." Naruto said. Sasuke gave an honest answer of shaking his head. "Well I have. Godly life in that caste is the same as prison life. Just wrapped in a pretty bow. The castle is my jail ceal and those so called priests are nothing more then prison guards. Design to keep me locked away. That is why I don't like that place. And why I like you so much." Naruto said causing Sasuke to look up confused.
"Why am I different Naruto?" He ask curious. "That right there! For instance you called me Naruto. No one else would dare do that. Plus you treat me more like a friend then some stupid god figure." Naruto explained. Sasuke smiled and took his hand again "That's because you are my friend.". Naruto could weep at those words as he was filled with so much happiness.
Before his water show could start Naruto rushed Sasuke the last few feet down the road to his house. Where they would partake in a lovely dinner before falling asleep in each others arms.
Hiruzen sat confortably in his carriage along with the four priest and the kitsune's hand maidens discussing the being in question. "Who could ever be stupid enough to kidnap the Great Kitsune. Surly they know even if you take him the only way to get his abilities and by being in his favor. Kidnaping him would not insure that." Hiruzen said out loud speculating. "Perhaps it wasn't an enemy nation but a peasant who wished to use the Kitsune's powers for their own selfish means. I mean the way we're being lead is the city outskirts. There are a lot of unhappy, overworked, down on luck, citizens who would jump at the chance." Kakashi put in his two cents.
They thought about this for a moment. Kakashi had a point. Other nations knew better then to simply kidnap the kitsune it would only bring them misfortune. They were to educated to make that mistake, but a peasant might not have that education or knowledge. Not to mention this far out in the kingdom they get even less news. It seem quite obvious to them now what happen. Their great Kitsune has been kidnapped by a peasant from the outskirts.
