The attack creates a constant 'chi' noise, sounding like a thousand birds advancing towards you. The jutsu gained its name from this sound. This jutsu gained the nickname 'Lightning Edge' or, Raikiri - When Kakashi cut a bolt of lightning in half using it.

============================================================================ ========
As Iruka was about to speak, Sasha passed by him as she seemed to focus on certain sounds.
"What's wrong?" Naruto asked a bit worried
"Something's not right ..." Sasha said as she walked back to Naruto's side
The moment she was about to take another step towards Naruto, she was repelled against the wall. Sasha kneeled as she looked towards Naruto with a worried look.
"We got company" Sasha said
Naruto tried to move but found himself frozen in place as he looked around him. A new circle surrounded him as the others all watched surprised.
"Chikushou! I thought he'd leave me alone after last time..." Naruto mumbled
Iruka tried to reach to Naruto but found himself repelled as well.
The doors opened as a man stepped forward with two other ninjas by his side.
"Shiraku ..." Naruto mumbled as his eyes were filled with rage
"I came to pick up my demon. And this time, permanently." Shiraku stated as he walked towards Naruto
Kakashi and the others were about to interfere when they were repelled as well by the invisible barrier that surrounded Naruto.
Sasha rose to her feet as she kept the closest as she could to Naruto , only able to watch and do nothing.
"Kyubi ain't ever interested in you to begin with" Naruto commented as he struggled to try and move
"We'll see about that very soon." Shiraku answered as he was only a meter away from the blond
Shiraku gently caressed the boy's cheek as he gave away an evil smile.
"Get you're filthy hands off us!" Naruto demanded as his eyes showed anger
"My my, don't get angry, I'll be finally granting you the wish you always desired, to be normal and no longer rejected." Shiraku commented as he turned his back to the blond
Naruto's anger was high but simply by those words, he lowered his head and closed his eyes.
Hokage looked over at Kakashi and nodded. Kakashi understood what Hokage wanted him to attempt while Shiraku was off guard.
Kakashi had made several hand gestures as his blue chakra started to gather in the palm of his hand.
"Chidori" Kakashi let out
Sasuke and all the others observed as Kakashi pushed his hand towards the barrier in hopes to maybe break it.
"You shouldn't of done that" Shiraku said as his eyes met those of Kakashi
Suddenly, the blue chakra from Chidori Attack repelled against the barrier, causing its attacks to go berserk and pushed Kakashi back violently against the wall.
The hand which Kakashi had used for Chidori, was all bloody, as Kurenai and Asuma ran to help Kakashi back up to his feet, as Sakura, Iruka and Sasuke were surprised that his attack had failed, considering that he had cut in half lightning.
"Kakashi, are you alright?" Kurenai asked
"That was a bad idea" Kakashi let out as he had trouble moving at all due to the set back
From the other side of the room, Sakura was shocked by Kakashi being thrown away so easily, as Sasuke's eyes were wide.
"We have to help Naruto" Iruka said
"How can we piss him off?" Sasha asked as she turned to face the Iruka and the other two students
"Eh?" Sakura asked confused
"This isn't the time to think how to get Naruto mad" Iruka yelled out
Hokage came closer hearing what they were discussing.
"Why would you want to do that child?" Hokage asked
"Naruto isn't the kind to give up, what fuels him, is his anger, just as much as Kyubi. Then he'll be able to do something" Sasha explained
"Dobe" Sasuke let out
"Huh?" Sasha said
"He gets cranky when ever I call him dobe or baka" Sasuke repeated more clearly
"Good, start calling him that then" Sasha demanded as her eyes then turned towards Shiraku and the two ninjas not far from him
Sakura, Iruka and Sasuke looked at each other as Hokage gave them permission to do what ever they could to help.
"Naruto. You baka, never knew you gave up in front of an enemy. You are a dobe after all." Sasuke started as the other two looked at him
Naruto's finger twitched a little by Sasuke's continuous comments seemed to start affecting the boy.
Shiraku's eyes then turned towards where Sasha and the other stood.
"You... You have caused me more trouble than anything else. Perhaps it's time for you to join the rest of your clan." Shiraku mentioned as he gave a signal to his ninjas behind him
The second the vanished, they reappeared quickly behind Sasha two grab hold of her shoulders, before she had time to react.
"This might work..." She thought as she struggled to get out of their grip
Iruka rushed to her help, but found himself quickly punched in the stomach, as he fell to his knees, trying to catch his breath.
The two Ninjas vanished with Sasha, as they reappeared within the circle in front of Shiraku.
Sasha's eyes met those of her enemy quickly, as she then felt a pressure around her neck, giving her trouble to breath.
Shiraku had his hand wrapped around her neck, as he lifted her from the ground and smiled back to the female.
"If we don't do something all hell is going to break loose." Asuma said as Kakashi had an arm on Asuma to help him stand
"Hokage-sama!" Kurenai spoke
"Naruto, Kyubi, I never thought you were such weaklings" Hokage said
All looked over at Hokage, surprised by his comment.
From the corner of her eyes, Sasha took a peek at Hokage, as she struggled like she could.
"Two minds with the same will" Sasha manage to elt out as Shiraku seemed amused
"Time to snap that beautiful neck of yours." Shiraku said
"Baka are you just going to stand there and watch your friends get killed!?" Sasuke yelled out as he was ready to interfere when Sakura grabbed onto his arm
============================================================================ ======================
*Inside Naruto*
The chains had already started to hold Kyubi down, as Naruto was trapped in a corner, with constant chains trying to trap him.
"Chikushou!" Naruto let out in frustration
"Leave while you can boy" The fox ordered
"What the hell are you talking about?" Naruto asked as he continued to break the chains trying to pin him down
"That man will after all rid you of me, isn't that what you always wanted?" The Kyubi asked
"You stupid fox! Without you I don't have enough power to protect myself and her! Sure I use to hate you, but then again we're stuck together, so might as well take advantage of it" Naruto replied as he finally managed to make a way towards Kyubi
"That brat can be somewhat intelligent sometimes" Kyubi thought
"So how about we kick his ass again and show him our strength as one?" Naruto asked as he used Rasengan to cut the chains off.
"This time, I'll make sure he stays down." Kyubi replied as he rose to his paws
================================================= =================================================
*Hokage's Room*
As Shiraku prepared to snap her little neck, the others could only watch, unable to do anything due to the barrier.
"Any last words?" Shiraku asked with a smile
"I don't. But he might" Sasha teased as she gave a nod towards Naruto's direction
Swirls of red chakra surrounded Naruto, as his fingers began to move.
Everyone's attention were fixed to the blond, as he started to let out an evil laugh.
"Nani?" Shiraku let out
"Get your filthy hands off her you sick bastard" Naruto ordered as he rose his head to stare into the eyes of his enemy
His eyes showed the red colour as his finger nails grew longer.
Shiraku's eyes were now focused on Naruto, as his grip loosened around Sasha's neck, and of course she took advantage of that small moment.
Sasha grabbed hold of Shiraku's arms to use it to pull herself up in order to kick him in the stomach.
Unfortunately, Shiraku had read her moves, as he let go of her neck to avoid being kicked.
Sasha quickly moved out of harms way as she now stood beside Naruto.
Naruto was able to break free at last, as the circle's barrier was once more defeated.
Shiraku looked quite annoyed, as Naruto looked at him with predator's eyes seeing it's prey.
"Hey bastard! Your damn circle won't work on me so why don't you stop it already" Kyubi, in Naruto's body spoke
"The circle works for those who are the container of demons. It's impossible for it to be broken!" Shiraku stated
"Impossible!? Get a clue, Kyubi and Naruto both broke it twice already and there's a good reason of how" Sasha informed as she wsmiled
"A reason?" Shiraku asked
"You can't remove a demon that has merge with the host." Kyubi let out as he stared into his enemy's eyes
His red eyes changed into blue for several seconds as it then changed back to the red colour it was.
Shiraku was shocked by the news, as Naruto charged forth within seconds.
Shiraku could only block the attack with his arm, as Naruto's claws made it once more into his skin.
Shiraku used his chakra to push Naruto back to where he was, as he quickly covered his wounded arm with his hand.
Naruto landed on his feet, as he cracked his bloody fingers and smiled.
"That arm, I'll rip it off" Kyubi stated as he prepared to attack again
"You fool, you're totally useless to me now" Shiraku replied with anger as he started to step back
"You're not planning on leaving after all, you're the one who came here in the first place." Hokage teased
"You were all aware of this weren't you. You'll regret all this one day, you just wait and see. I'll come back stronger than ever and destroy you and this pethatic Village!" Shiraku yelled out
As he prepared to leave, Kurenai and Asuma had quickly moved in the door frame, to prevent the enemy from simply walking out.
The two ninjas by Shiraku's side, waited for their master's order, as he simply nodded. With that alone, the two ninjas charged towards the two Jounins, but they lacked of skill to defeat them in the first place.
Asuma took a puff of his cigarette, before he dodged the punch and kicks of his enemy. After a minute, of dodging, Asuma leaned down as he punched the ninja's stomach, rendering him unconscious.
Kurenai only had to move aside as she left her foot in the way as the ninja was dumb enough to trip over it.
As the ninja landed face first on the floor, Kurenai sat on his back, as she pulled a kunai and placed it under his neck.
"I dare you to move" Kurenai commented
With only Shiruka left, he was outnumbered and wounded.
"How could this possibly happen?" Shiruka asked himself ============================================================================ ======================
*Inside Naruto*
"How about you let me help out a bit?" Naruto asked
"Annoying brat" Kyubi let out
"I heard that you stupid fox!" Naruto replied pointing his fist at the fox
"Since we've merge, I suppose calling me stupid is calling yourself stupid" The fox teased
"You're started to sound like that bastard Sasuke you know" Naruto replied
The fox smiled.
"You never cease to amaze me with your stupidity brat" Kyubi teased again
"Temea!" Naruto said as he showed anger
"But I suppose that's what makes you interesting." Kyubi finished
============================================================================ ======================
*Back in the Room*
One of Naruto's eyes turned back to the color of blue, as he placed his fingers together for his most favourite Jutsu.
"Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!" Naruto said
Naruto clones filled the room as they all pulled out a kunai and prepared to land the finishing blow.
"It ends here Shiraku" Sasha said as she placed her hands together, preparing for a jutsu herself
Though he would be defeated, Shiraku managed to let out a smile which caused some confusion among the leaf ninjas present.
"What's so damn funny?" Naruto asked
"I'll be sure to take my revenge on both of you as well as Konoha and that damn Hokage. Mark my words, next time we meet you all die!" Shiraku let out as a strong wind gathered around him
"Shimatta! He's going to escape!" Kakashi yelled out
By the time Kakashi had spoken, Shiraku had disappeared from the room and escaped.
Naruto's clones all vanished in smokes, as Sasha remained by his side to make sure he was ok.
Sakura and Iruka quickly ran towards Naruto to make sure he was ok.
"Naruto are you alright?" Sakura asked
"Hai hai, we both are" Naruto replied
"Both?" Iruka asked
"Hey fox, mind giving me back control?" Naruto spoke to the surprise of all
"Ungrateful kid" Kyubi said
Upon those words, Naruto's red eye turned to blue just like his other one.
"Look as much as I would like to stick around, I got someone to hunt down" Naruto said as he walked towards the exit door
Kurenai and Asuma stepped in, blocking his path, as Sasha prepared to make a move, when Naruto gave her a sign to stand down.
"Kakashi, I agreed to come but I never said that I would stay." Naruto reminded his former teacher
"I know, Hokage-sama. It's best to let them go..." Kakashi commented
"You can't just leave you dobe" Sasuke spoke
"When are you going to stop caling me that you bastard!" Naruto let out as he turned to face his former rival
"Probably never" Sasuke replied
"Naruto, you really want to leave but why?" Sakura asked
"Some things changed Sakura-chan. I can't stay here, besides the Villagers will be happy, plus I'll be doing Konoha a big favour by going after the guy. Here is just not home anymore..." Naruto replied
Hokage stepped forward, as he placed a hand on Naruto's shoulder.
"Then I guess it's time for you to get an S ranked mission" Hokage stated
Suddenly, everyone's mouths opened out of shock and surprised.
"Hokage-sama why ..." Kurenai started to ask
"Naruto and Kyubi are no threat to the Village, and he is still part of the Leaf ninjas. Sending Anbu after him would be useless ne?" Hokage asked with a little smile
"Hai. I couldn't guarantee their safe return, since Sasha hates them even more than me" Naruto replied with a smile
"Then it's settle, do try to come from time to time though." Hokage requested
"Sure, so does that mean I won't be a missing-nin?" Naruto asked
"Hai" Kakashi answered with a smile
"Arigatou old man!" Naruto said
"I wish you would stop calling me that Naruto. Only those present here will know about Naruto's mission understood?" Hokage asked
"Hai" They all answered
"Good luck then Naruto" Hokage said as he stepped back
Naruto smiled, as Asuma and Kurenai moved out of the blond's way, Iruka came closer to his former student.
"You better get back here in one piece" Iruka warned him
"Don't worry, I'll bring the baka back in one piece" Sasha teased
Naruto turned around quickly to face the female with a shocked expression.
"You're not going to start calling me that too are you?" Naruto asked
"I don't know, I'll think about it" Sasha replied with a smile
"Chikushou, this is all your fault Sasuke!" Naruto turned back to face Sasuke
"Don't blame me dobe" Sasuke replied with a cool voice
Before Naruto could give a reply, Sakura walked to him and hugged him, then took a step back.
"It's to wish you good luck and be careful too" Sakura told him
Naruto blushed a little as he patted the back of his head.
"Well bastard, there's only you and Kakashi left" Naruto stated
"Humph" Was the only word Sasuke said as he evaded the eyes of Naruto
Naruto was a bit confused when suddenly, he had a huge smile on his lips.
This caught Sasuke's attention, as he uncrossed his arms and raised an eyebrow.
"Why are you smiling like an idiot Naruto?" Sasuke dared to ask
Sasuke reached out as he pulled Sasuke closer to him and kissed his former rival on the lips.
Sasuke's eyes widened, as well as everyone else in the room that was present.
"He's doing it again!" Inner Sakura yelled out
"Baka" Both demons thought as well as Sasha
"Despite your merge with Kyubi, you'll always do stupid things..." Hokage as he placed a hand in his forehead and took a deep breath
"Is he always like this?" Kurenai murmured to Asuma
"Don't ask me, he's Kakashi's student after all" Asume answered in a low tone
"They've always had this strange bond, but I suppose this is Naruto's way of showing to his former rival something" Kakashi replied in a low tone
"Like what?" Kurenai asked as Iruka came closer to them
"Remembering their accidental kiss in my class when they were younger" Iruka answered
All three Jounins turned their heads towards Iruka, surprised by his answer.
Naruto steped back, as he smiled again at Sasuke.
Sasuke on the other hand was shocked by Naruto's action.
"Just to remember old times" Naruto said as he turned away
A stunned Sasuke stood still, as Sakura was still shocked by Naruto's action, and it wasn't even an accident this time!
Naruto joined up with Sasha, as he hear the adults murmur.
"Did you enjoy it?" Sasha asked
"Erhm... It's a thing between me and him" Naruto answered
"Naruto, the Village is going to get quiet and a bit boring without you around." Iruka said
"You'll find another trouble making kid Iruka!" Naruto reassured his former teacher
"No one's ever going to replace you" Iruka thought
"Well, s ranked mission here we come!" Naruto yelled out as he walked out of the room with Sasha by his side
============================================================================ ======================
*Outside Hokage's House*
Naruto and Sasha walked as they now both focused on the task at hand.
"Well at least we don't have to worry about having people tracking us down now" Sasha stated
"Hai, as long as I have you with me, I know well get the bastard for what he did to us" Naruto said
"You sure you don't want Sasuke with you, after all, you did kiss him" Sasha teased
"I explained that already..." Naruto mumbled
Sasha placed her hand on Naruto's shoulder and smiled at him.
Naruto felt a lot better knowing what she meant, and smiled back
============================================================================ ======================
*Hokage's Window*
Kurenai, Asuma, Kakashi, Iruka, Hokage, Sakura and Sasuke stood near the window as they saw both of them leave.
Sasuke gently touched his lips as he smiled a little and then closed his eyes for a moment.
"Baka" Thought Sasuke as he opened his eyes to see his former rival vanish before his eyes
"With her by his side, we can be sure Naruto will be safe." Hokage stated
"Hai" Asuma and Kakashi replied
"I'm going to miss buying him ramen" Iruka let out
"Well you'll have more money for you at least" Kakashi said with a smile
"Be safe Naruto" Sakura thought
"I guess our fourth Hokage would be proud to see this." Kurenai said
"Hai." Hokage said
"Until we meet again Naruto" Iruka thought ============================================================================ ======================
*At the Gates of Konoha*
Naruto turned back one last time to see his former home.
"Sayonara minna" Naruto softly said
Naruto turned back, as he and Sasha set out for their new and only mission given to them.
Hunt down and kill Shiraku
============================================================================ ======================
This was the last chapter for this story! Hope it wasn't too boring, I had trouble writing it down since I'm concentrating on 5 stories lol.
Reviews :
Malachi : Hope this last chapter pleased you and thank you for the compliments, I don't get so many because some gave me flames concerning Sasha
Rubymoon17 : thanks for your support, it really helped me to keep on writing
Kyubi-naruto : I'm happy to know you feel that way about my story
Ming : About your comment, if you've read other Naruto fics, you'll notice most of us actually use them. It's the basic dialogue that the characters use often during the show, which you would know if you were a fanatic like me of anime series. Second well compared to others I at least write what they mean, the translation that is.
Foxgrl : glad you're hooked!!
Silverknight7 : I appreciate your review comments are also welcomed
Pyr00tje : I'm glad you enjoyed my story and helped me a lot
Lashya : glad you find them all cute. I tried not to make them too OCC but after all this was my first fic ever written.
IMPORTANT NOTE
This is the last chapter of this series, BUT I'm planning now on writing a sequel to it, set a few years later with a new storyline.
Please review and tell me if I should bother or not.
If I write a sequel, hopefully I'll have the new story up within the end of February ( Sorry for it being late but I have a few stories to manage right now so please leave me some time ONEGAI! )
Any opinions or ideas are welcome too
Thank you
And I thank you all those that supported the stories I write and especially this one.

*Inside Naruto*
The chains had already started to hold Kyubi down, as Naruto was trapped in a corner, with constant chains trying to trap him.
"Chikushou!" Naruto let out in frustration
"Leave while you can boy" The fox ordered
"What the hell are you talking about?" Naruto asked as he continued to break the chains trying to pin him down
"That man will after all rid you of me, isn't that what you always wanted?" The Kyubi asked
"You stupid fox! Without you I don't have enough power to protect myself and her! Sure I use to hate you, but then again we're stuck together, so might as well take advantage of it" Naruto replied as he finally managed to make a way towards Kyubi
"That brat can be somewhat intelligent sometimes" Kyubi thought
"So how about we kick his ass again and show him our strength as one?" Naruto asked as he used Rasengan to cut the chains off.
"This time, I'll make sure he stays down." Kyubi replied as he rose to his paws
================================================= =================================================
*Hokage's Room*
As Shiraku prepared to snap her little neck, the others could only watch, unable to do anything due to the barrier.
"Any last words?" Shiraku asked with a smile
"I don't. But he might" Sasha teased as she gave a nod towards Naruto's direction

"Impossible!? Get a clue, Kyubi and Naruto both broke it twice already and there's a good reason of how" Sasha informed as she wsmiled
"A reason?" Shiraku asked
"You can't remove a demon that has merge with the host." Kyubi let out as he stared into his enemy's eyes
His red eyes changed into blue for several seconds as it then changed back to the red colour it was.
Shiraku was shocked by the news, as Naruto charged forth within seconds.
Shiraku could only block the attack with his arm, as Naruto's claws made it once more into his skin.
Shiraku used his chakra to push Naruto back to where he was, as he quickly covered his wounded arm with his hand.
Naruto landed on his feet, as he cracked his bloody fingers and smiled.
"That arm, I'll rip it off" Kyubi stated as he prepared to attack again
"You fool, you're totally useless to me now" Shiraku replied with anger as he started to step back
"You're not planning on leaving after all, you're the one who came here in the first place." Hokage teased
"You were all aware of this weren't you. You'll regret all this one day, you just wait and see. I'll come back stronger than ever and destroy you and this pethatic Village!" Shiraku yelled out
As he prepared to leave, Kurenai and Asuma had quickly moved in the door frame, to prevent the enemy from simply walking out.
The two ninjas by Shiraku's side, waited for their master's order, as he simply nodded. With that alone, the two ninjas charged towards the two Jounins, but they lacked of skill to defeat them in the first place.
Asuma took a puff of his cigarette, before he dodged the punch and kicks of his enemy. After a minute, of dodging, Asuma leaned down as he punched the ninja's stomach, rendering him unconscious.
Kurenai only had to move aside as she left her foot in the way as the ninja was dumb enough to trip over it.
As the ninja landed face first on the floor, Kurenai sat on his back, as she pulled a kunai and placed it under his neck.
"I dare you to move" Kurenai commented
With only Shiruka left, he was outnumbered and wounded.
"How could this possibly happen?" Shiruka asked himself ============================================================================ ======================
*Inside Naruto*
"How about you let me help out a bit?" Naruto asked
"Annoying brat" Kyubi let out
"I heard that you stupid fox!" Naruto replied pointing his fist at the fox
"Since we've merge, I suppose calling me stupid is calling yourself stupid" The fox teased
"You're started to sound like that bastard Sasuke you know" Naruto replied
The fox smiled.
"You never cease to amaze me with your stupidity brat" Kyubi teased again
"Temea!" Naruto said as he showed anger
"But I suppose that's what makes you interesting." Kyubi finished
============================================================================ ======================
*Back in the Room*
One of Naruto's eyes turned back to the color of blue, as he placed his fingers together for his most favourite Jutsu.
"Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!" Naruto said
Naruto clones filled the room as they all pulled out a kunai and prepared to land the finishing blow.
"It ends here Shiraku" Sasha said as she placed her hands together, preparing for a jutsu herself
Though he would be defeated, Shiraku managed to let out a smile which caused some confusion among the leaf ninjas present.
"What's so damn funny?" Naruto asked
"I'll be sure to take my revenge on both of you as well as Konoha and that damn Hokage. Mark my words, next time we meet you all die!" Shiraku let out as a strong wind gathered around him
"Shimatta! He's going to escape!" Kakashi yelled out
By the time Kakashi had spoken, Shiraku had disappeared from the room and escaped.
Naruto's clones all vanished in smokes, as Sasha remained by his side to make sure he was ok.
Sakura and Iruka quickly ran towards Naruto to make sure he was ok.
"Naruto are you alright?" Sakura asked
"Hai hai, we both are" Naruto replied
"Both?" Iruka asked
"Hey fox, mind giving me back control?" Naruto spoke to the surprise of all
"Ungrateful kid" Kyubi said
Upon those words, Naruto's red eye turned to blue just like his other one.
"Look as much as I would like to stick around, I got someone to hunt down" Naruto said as he walked towards the exit door
Kurenai and Asuma stepped in, blocking his path, as Sasha prepared to make a move, when Naruto gave her a sign to stand down.
"Kakashi, I agreed to come but I never said that I would stay." Naruto reminded his former teacher
"I know, Hokage-sama. It's best to let them go..." Kakashi commented
"You can't just leave you dobe" Sasuke spoke
"When are you going to stop caling me that you bastard!" Naruto let out as he turned to face his former rival
"Probably never" Sasuke replied
"Naruto, you really want to leave but why?" Sakura asked
"Some things changed Sakura-chan. I can't stay here, besides the Villagers will be happy, plus I'll be doing Konoha a big favour by going after the guy. Here is just not home anymore..." Naruto replied
Hokage stepped forward, as he placed a hand on Naruto's shoulder.
"Then I guess it's time for you to get an S ranked mission" Hokage stated
Suddenly, everyone's mouths opened out of shock and surprised.
"Hokage-sama why ..." Kurenai started to ask
"Naruto and Kyubi are no threat to the Village, and he is still part of the Leaf ninjas. Sending Anbu after him would be useless ne?" Hokage asked with a little smile
"Hai. I couldn't guarantee their safe return, since Sasha hates them even more than me" Naruto replied with a smile
"Then it's settle, do try to come from time to time though." Hokage requested
"Sure, so does that mean I won't be a missing-nin?" Naruto asked
"Hai" Kakashi answered with a smile
"Arigatou old man!" Naruto said
"I wish you would stop calling me that Naruto. Only those present here will know about Naruto's mission understood?" Hokage asked
"Hai" They all answered
"Good luck then Naruto" Hokage said as he stepped back
Naruto smiled, as Asuma and Kurenai moved out of the blond's way, Iruka came closer to his former student.
"You better get back here in one piece" Iruka warned him
"Don't worry, I'll bring the baka back in one piece" Sasha teased
Naruto turned around quickly to face the female with a shocked expression.
"You're not going to start calling me that too are you?" Naruto asked
"I don't know, I'll think about it" Sasha replied with a smile
"Chikushou, this is all your fault Sasuke!" Naruto turned back to face Sasuke
"Don't blame me dobe" Sasuke replied with a cool voice
Before Naruto could give a reply, Sakura walked to him and hugged him, then took a step back.
"It's to wish you good luck and be careful too" Sakura told him
Naruto blushed a little as he patted the back of his head.
"Well bastard, there's only you and Kakashi left" Naruto stated
"Humph" Was the only word Sasuke said as he evaded the eyes of Naruto
Naruto was a bit confused when suddenly, he had a huge smile on his lips.
This caught Sasuke's attention, as he uncrossed his arms and raised an eyebrow.
"Why are you smiling like an idiot Naruto?" Sasuke dared to ask
Sasuke reached out as he pulled Sasuke closer to him and kissed his former rival on the lips.
Sasuke's eyes widened, as well as everyone else in the room that was present.
"He's doing it again!" Inner Sakura yelled out
"Baka" Both demons thought as well as Sasha
"Despite your merge with Kyubi, you'll always do stupid things..." Hokage as he placed a hand in his forehead and took a deep breath
"Is he always like this?" Kurenai murmured to Asuma
"Don't ask me, he's Kakashi's student after all" Asume answered in a low tone
"They've always had this strange bond, but I suppose this is Naruto's way of showing to his former rival something" Kakashi replied in a low tone
"Like what?" Kurenai asked as Iruka came closer to them
"Remembering their accidental kiss in my class when they were younger" Iruka answered
All three Jounins turned their heads towards Iruka, surprised by his answer.
Naruto steped back, as he smiled again at Sasuke.
Sasuke on the other hand was shocked by Naruto's action.
"Just to remember old times" Naruto said as he turned away
A stunned Sasuke stood still, as Sakura was still shocked by Naruto's action, and it wasn't even an accident this time!
Naruto joined up with Sasha, as he hear the adults murmur.
"Did you enjoy it?" Sasha asked
"Erhm... It's a thing between me and him" Naruto answered
"Naruto, the Village is going to get quiet and a bit boring without you around." Iruka said
"You'll find another trouble making kid Iruka!" Naruto reassured his former teacher
"No one's ever going to replace you" Iruka thought
"Well, s ranked mission here we come!" Naruto yelled out as he walked out of the room with Sasha by his side
============================================================================ ======================
*Outside Hokage's House*
Naruto and Sasha walked as they now both focused on the task at hand.
"Well at least we don't have to worry about having people tracking us down now" Sasha stated
"Hai, as long as I have you with me, I know well get the bastard for what he did to us" Naruto said
"You sure you don't want Sasuke with you, after all, you did kiss him" Sasha teased
"I explained that already..." Naruto mumbled
Sasha placed her hand on Naruto's shoulder and smiled at him.
Naruto felt a lot better knowing what she meant, and smiled back
============================================================================ ======================
*Hokage's Window*
Kurenai, Asuma, Kakashi, Iruka, Hokage, Sakura and Sasuke stood near the window as they saw both of them leave.
Sasuke gently touched his lips as he smiled a little and then closed his eyes for a moment.
"Baka" Thought Sasuke as he opened his eyes to see his former rival vanish before his eyes
"With her by his side, we can be sure Naruto will be safe." Hokage stated
"Hai" Asuma and Kakashi replied
"I'm going to miss buying him ramen" Iruka let out
"Well you'll have more money for you at least" Kakashi said with a smile
"Be safe Naruto" Sakura thought
"I guess our fourth Hokage would be proud to see this." Kurenai said
"Hai." Hokage said
"Until we meet again Naruto" Iruka thought ============================================================================ ======================
*At the Gates of Konoha*
Naruto turned back one last time to see his former home.
"Sayonara minna" Naruto softly said
Naruto turned back, as he and Sasha set out for their new and only mission given to them.
Hunt down and kill Shiraku
============================================================================ ======================
This was the last chapter for this story! Hope it wasn't too boring, I had trouble writing it down since I'm concentrating on 5 stories lol.
Reviews :
Malachi : Hope this last chapter pleased you and thank you for the compliments, I don't get so many because some gave me flames concerning Sasha
Rubymoon17 : thanks for your support, it really helped me to keep on writing
Kyubi-naruto : I'm happy to know you feel that way about my story
Ming : About your comment, if you've read other Naruto fics, you'll notice most of us actually use them. It's the basic dialogue that the characters use often during the show, which you would know if you were a fanatic like me of anime series. Second well compared to others I at least write what they mean, the translation that is.
Foxgrl : glad you're hooked!!
Silverknight7 : I appreciate your review comments are also welcomed
Pyr00tje : I'm glad you enjoyed my story and helped me a lot
Lashya : glad you find them all cute. I tried not to make them too OCC but after all this was my first fic ever written.
IMPORTANT NOTE
This is the last chapter of this series, BUT I'm planning now on writing a sequel to it, set a few years later with a new storyline.
Please review and tell me if I should bother or not.
If I write a sequel, hopefully I'll have the new story up within the end of February ( Sorry for it being late but I have a few stories to manage right now so please leave me some time ONEGAI! )
Any opinions or ideas are welcome too
Thank you
And I thank you all those that supported the stories I write and especially this one.
