"I wonder what kind of show Kira-sama is putting on? I bet it'll be awesome, after all she is the Demon Wolf. I wish I could be like her," Sakura whispered to Ino who nodded and remembered what had happened to all of the Wolf's Ear's after it was announced that she was back. Her families store had earned a fortune that afternoon, hopefully there were still some in the forest that they could harvest.
"Hey gorgeous, hope I'm in time for the show," Sai said in Ino's ear as he joined the group, earning a glare from Sakura on Ino's other side. Shikamaru looked at him with a weird look as he sat with Temari and put his arm around her making her lean against his shoulder. He put his head on hers after kissing her forehead.
After seeing this display of affection Sai did the exact same but thought he would wait until later to kiss her.
A/N; I'm sorry but for some reason when I tried to write this scene I could only write something that was terrible and not worthy of being in a Naruto fanfic. So with all do respect I plead with you to use your imagination and think of something to replace this 'AN', thank-you for reading and I promise to work on these thing future fights/performances ;D please R&R
After the show was over the kages' and Kira walked off the stage towards the group sitting in the front, most of them were wide eyed and staring at the stage.
"So what did you think, was it good?" Kira asked as she stood next to Naruto and Sakura.
"It was better than good, it was - " Iruka tried to find the word but was dumbstruck when the Mizukage held his hand while resting her head on his chest, and glared at Tsunade while sticking her tongue out.
"It was phenomenal, Kira; but if you don't mind me asking where were you earlier? I wanted to ask you something," Asuma said in a slightly stern voice Kira noticed, remembering that he only ever used that voice when he had something personal he wanted confide in her.
"How 'bout I tell you later, anyway why don't you come over tomorrow and we can talk about old times, okay? Why not introduce us instead?" Kira said with a smirk on her lips as she nodded to everyone behind him.
"Oh yes, of course, okay everyone roll call! Shikamaru start," Asuma said/yelled like a drill sergeant.
"Nara Shikamaru, present," Shikamaru said in the non-laziest voice he had giving Kira a nod, she nodded back.
"Yamanaka Ino, nice to meet you," Ino smiled and saluted, Kira gave her a small smile.
"Akimichi Choji, reporting for duty," he said with a goofy smile, Kira smiled back; smiling from her heart now.
"Aburame Shino, it's a pleasure," he said from under the high neck of his yukata, "The pleasure is all mine," Kira replied offering him her hand which he kissed.
"Hyuuga Hinata, welcome," Hinata said without stuttering and gave a slight bow, Kira smile and bowed as well.
"Inuzuka Kiba, nice to see'ya," he said with a grin that could match Naruto's, she grinned back.
"Uzumaki Naruto, how's it going?" Naruto said cheerfully earning a bump from Sakura and a grin from Kira.
"Haruno Sakura, welcome home," Sakura said with a bow and big smile, Kira copied her and grinned.
"Sai, I hope to learn more about you," Sai said with his usual smile earning a look from almost everyone, Kira raised an eyebrow but still smiled at him.
"Rock Lee, and might I say the power of youth is blooming in you," Lee said earning a nervous grin from Kira, Oh no not another one. Gai's enough but a mini-Gai; no way.
"Hyuuga Neji, it's an honor," Neji said with a slight nod which she returned
"Ten-ten, nice to meet you," she said offering her hand which Kira took.
"Might Gai, it's been to long my mountain lily," he said flourishing flowers from behind him for her which she took and quickly turned to the next person.
"Yuuhi Kurenai, I hope we can train together sometime," she said bowing slightly and giving Kira the evil eye which said that Asuma was hers, Kira gave her a slight nod which made Kurenai calm down.
"Hatake Kakashi, welcome home sis," he said giving her a hug, which she returned.
"Umino Iruka, I hope you stay for good," he said and after saying that he blushed and looked away, before he felt a hand on his cheek and lips giving him a peck. Much to his dismay the Mizukage sent Kira slight look before Kira sent her a look, saying that it was okay and Iruka was just a friend.
"Okay well that's everyone and you know me, so we can just skip. Although I'm pretty sure that the others didn't have to introduce themselves, anyway what about that thing you said you were going to do. You know the announcement and stuff I thought you had one," Asuma said reminding her that she had said that she would take in Naruto.
"Yeah I know, I know. But I have to talk to him first," Kira whispered to him earning a look from everyone else. "Anyway Naruto can I talk with you for a sec? Alone." With the last word she glared at everyone, making them flinch at her gaze.
"Huh? Oh, yeah, sure, hey why don't you all head over to Ichirakus' and save some seat we'll be there soon," Naruto said glancing at everyone, who nodded and went since they couldn't stand being under Kira's glare.
When they had all left Kira pulled Naruto over to the stage and went over to the changing rooms, when she felt sure that they were alone she locked the door.
"Okay, so like what did you want to talk about, Kira-chan?" Naruto asked as he watched the kunoichi.
She glanced over her shoulder at him before going to the window and looking out, "Naruto, how much do you know about your parents?"
Naruto was shocked when she asked this and went into a brooding/serious state, "To be honest nothing, except that my mother died after giving birth." Kira glanced over at him and let out a sigh before walking over to him and putting her hand on his shoulder.
"Well I knew them and, I'll tell you what I'm just going to stop beating around the bush and say it; I'm related to your dad alright!" Kira told him and let out an annoyed sigh after letting go of his shoulder. "During my aunts time one of her first cousins married someone from your dad's family and I'm directly descended from them. I'm planning on fixing up the mansion I lived in when I was a kid and I was wondering if you wanted to like, come live with me. I know it's a lot to take in so just take your time and you can tell me in a few days, okay? That's all I wanted to talk to you about," Kira said before heading to the door.
"Wait you want me to live with you? For real? Yes, yes, yes!" Naruto screamed/yelled as she was turning around before being flattened since Naruto jumped on her.
Kira blinked away the tears that were threatening to fall before she hugged Naruto back surprising him because he thought she didn't like getting hugged, "Really, Naruto? Do you really want to live with me? Because if so, do you think you and some of your friends could take a look at the mansion tomorrow before heading to the onsen, and see what needs to be fixed? You should ask either Hinata or Neji they can look around quicker than anyone without even having to enter. Actually I'll ask one of them to go with you tomorrow, so don't be surprised if one of them meets you tomorrow in front of your apartment." Kira told him before letting go and unlocking the door, motioning for Naruto to exit.
They quickly made their way to Ichirakus, where everyone was waiting for them with their food. Kira gave Asuma a small nod before sitting next to Gaara and one of the masked Cloud ninja's.
"Everything smells great doesn't it Bee?" she asked turning next to the masked ninja beside her. When she said his name the Raikage whipped his head away from Tsunade who was trying to feed him some of her ramen. Bee sat there stunned for a few moments before nodding and eating some with the same super fast movements that Kakashi has.
"Onee-chan, what were you talking about with Naruto?" Gaara whispered to her as the Raikage went over to Bee taking him by Bee's ear and dragging him to the shadows so no-one else would hear their conversation.
"Nothing much just a little about his family history, I also asked him if he wanted to come live with me after my families mansion is repaired," Kira told him before taking some her own ramen, oblivious that everyone else at the table (there's a long table that was prepared for them outside of Ichirakus), except for the Jonin, were looking between her and Naruto; who was sitting on the other side of Gaara and next to Sakura. Choji was looking at her with some food halfway between the table and his mouth; he had bet Naruto that he could eat faster and whoever lost would have to pay the bill. (Naruto was currently winning).
"Listen, can we talk about it tomorrow please? Because if I have to explain myself I'll be in a bad mood and no one wants that, do you?" she asked glaring at everyone, her eyes behind dark clouds.
Everyone shook their heads before continuing to eat; Naruto was already on his next bowl with Choji close behind. The kages slightly shivered at the times someone had angered the young girl and what she had done afterwards. When everyone else was done Naruto and Choji still each had one bowl left and with five seconds Naruto put his down before Choji. Choji anime cried thinking of what his father would once he found out how much he had spent for this one meal.
Kira shook her head and much to everyone's surprise walked over to the owner and talked to him, they couldn't hear what was being said but they saw the store owner nod twice before Kira pulled out her wallet and laid down what looked like a quarter of what was in Choji's wallet. When she came back she smiled and said, "Well then shall we go? Oh and Choji do you think you could help out with some cleaning around my mansion in the next few days?"
Choji nodded, grateful that there wouldn't now be a large hole in his bank account. He turned to Naruto who was grinning over another free meal, "You know Naruto I don't know how you do it, but one of these days someone won't be there to pay for your meals and you'll have to pay by yourself." Choji told him, still down that he lost to Naruto.
"Huh, hey what do you mean?" Naruto asked with tiny question marks appearing over his head. He frowned and scratched his head, looking up at the sky, "Well whatever, anyway as long as we all find a reason to live we will, right Hinata?" he smiled over at the girl and grinned. Hinata blushed madly, twiddling her fingers and nodded, avoiding eye contact.
"Hey Hinata, um earlier I was wondering if you would want to do some of the games with me, if that's alright with you Neji," Naruto asked Hinata in a gentle tone before looking to Neji who gave him an even colder stare.
"Neji how bout' you and Sakura go with them, in fact why don't we all go our own way for the rest of the night and we'll meet up tomorrow at ten in front of the hot springs, 'kay?" Kira asked hooking an arm through Bees', everyone looked doubtful until she glared at them before walking off with Bee.
"Why don't we follow her lead and go somewhere quite, hmm?" the Raikage said as he leaned into Tsunade and gave her ear a slight nip. She giggled like a schoolgirl going to her idols concert and nodded, tugging him over to the sake stands that Shizune had commissioned. Shizune was about to follow her when she felt someone wrap their arms around her waist from behind her, she looked over her shoulder and saw Genma standing there with his usual senbon in his mouth.
"Don't worry Shizune, she's a big girl she'll be fine. Anyway I was thinking if you wanted, why not go stargazing with me? I'll show you something you've never seen before," he asked her, giving her a sexy wink. She blushed and nodded letting him lead the way.
"Okay, well come on Hinata there's a game I saw that looked really fun. I bet you'll like it," Naruto said grinning, taking her hand and dragging her to the game stands. All the while Hinata was blushing and turning redder by the second. Neji and Sakura sighed at the same time before Neji offered her his arm which she hesitantly took, letting him lead the way after his cousin and her teammate. After they left everyone else just broke up into groups of two or threes.
"You know you're being pretty mature about this, I appreciate you not beating him up. Anyway what do you think of Kira-sama, Neji-san?" Sakura asked she slightly leaned into him, sensing him tense when she said she appreciated him. He kept looking forward not bothering to look down, just so long as he kept his eyes on his cousin he would be fine.
"It's too early to tell, but in a way she is similar to both Naruto and Sasuke at the same time. She's loud yet soft-spoken. Friendly but threatening. Mysterious yet open. To say the least she's a confusing but very kind person," Neji told her stopping behind Naruto and Hinata when they stopped near a fishing game.
"Yeah I guess, hey Neji I was wondering if maybe, you wanted to train with me someday. I want to try battling against the Byakugan, and I don't know if Hinata would be up for it," Sakura asked looking at him, as she did she noticed that her heart gave a slight flutter when their eyes met, Kami he's just so – hot!
Neji looked at the pinkette, not bothering to answer once he was finished taking in her every curve. She was so slender, her eyes sparkled when he looked at them, and her hair glowed under the lights. Neji shook his head just the slightest before answering, "Sure thing, Sakura. Why don't I pick you up at about nine the day after tomorrow?" Then when we're done I can take her somewhere, Neji thought looking at her with his stoic expression.
Sakura nodded happily before glancing to where Naruto and Hinata were, before noticing that they had slipped away; Neji also looked and a cold expression crossed his handsome features when he did not see his cousin or Naruto.
"Neji use your Byakugan and try to locate them, they couldn't have gotten that far," Sakura advised, getting her fighting gloves from a compartment in her kimono. Neji nodded and soon had his Byakugan activated.
"I don't see them, I guess we'll have to do this the old fashioned way, come on Sakura," Neji told her offering her his hand; she hesitated at first before taking it. "Let's pace ourselves, as long as they don't bump into my uncle, we shouldn't have to worry about them."
Wow he actually doesn't mind if Hinata is with Naruto, now that's something I wouldn't have seen back then, Sakura thought as she walked beside Neji, looking up at him with wide eyes. "Neji," Sakura asked out loud, "Hm?" he replied, "You're amazing." She told him, leaning her head against his arm.
She heard him sigh before stopping and pulling her into him, "I wish you had said that earlier Sakura, the truth is I've liked for over a year now, no that's not right. I've admired you're hard work and determination ever since two years ago when I saw you training with lady Tsunade. I thought you were amazing, drop dead beautiful, and simply someone I could admire. I know I don't come by as the kind of guy who would say this but I well; Sakura I love you." Neji told her looking into her eyes before closing the gap between their lips.
Sakura's eyes opened wide before closing and wrapping her arms around his neck, he pulled her closer and put one hand on her waist and the other in her hair. After a little while they pulled apart and looked at each other, both of them were flushed, "Wow." They announced in unison, they were still looking into each others eyes when they heard dog whistles and cat calls. They turned around and saw that they had been joined by some of their friends; including Hinata and Naruto.
They broke apart, but still held hands; Sakura was blushing like crazy while Neji was only slightly flushed and smirking. He had gotten the cutest girl ever to kiss him.
"Naruto, Hinata where were you two? We were worried," Sakura asked looking at them; her face was a few shades lighter than her hair.
"I'm s-sorry Sakura-san w-we thought y-you t-two might w-want to be a-alone for aw-awhile," Hinata stuttered lowering her gaze so she wouldn't have to meet her cousins. Naruto looked at her like she was the only thing in the world; Neji glanced and him and gave him a look that said, If you do anything that makes her upset, I'll tear you a new one.
