I changed my mind about the Naruto-Shigure mission. The end of last chapter has been edited to:
While Naruto sat on the village wall looking out into the forest surrounding Konoha he felt someone approach him. He looked to his side to see a girl with short black hair who wore a headband with the Iwa symbol.
She stopped and glared at him "You!" she said almost in an accusing manner.
"Huh?" Naruto responded in confusion.
"Talking"
'Thinking'
"Jutsu/Kurama Talking"
Chapter 54
'How dare he!' Kurotsuchi thought as she stared at the son of the Yondaime Hokage (Fourth Hokage) who in return looked at her like if she was some kind of idiot. Did he not know why she was here? What his evil father had done in the great third ninja war?
Namikaze Minato by himself was responsible for the death of thousands of Iwa ninja during the third great ninja war. One of them was Kurotsuchi's uncle who she never got to meet. Her grandfather Oonoki and her father Kitsuchi had told her to forget about the past so they could start over with Konoha with good relations between the villages. Kurotsuchi disagreed with that, she wanted this spawn of the Yondaime Hokage to suffer. She hated him.
"What do yo want?" Naruto asked in a bored tone "Can't you see I'm busy?" he was on a mission after all. This just made Kurotsuchi even angrier. Just a few days ago this idiot had been the reason they only got a few hours of sleep the night they arrived in Konoha as he wouldn't stop bothering them in his drunken state.
"I want to kick your ass you fucking asshole" Kurotsuchi spat out the words "I'm going to avenge all the iwa Shinobi and my uncle that your evil father, the Yondaime Hokage, killed during the war"
Kurotsuchi did not expect Naruto to grin back at her showing his teeth then laugh heartily until he was out of breath. When Naruto stopped laughing a very irritated Kurotsuchi asked "What's so damn funny?"
Naruto raised an eyebrow in response "Was I not supposed to laugh?"
"What's so fucking funny about your dad killing thousands of Iwa ninja!?" Kurotsuchi yelled at him red faced from anger.
Naruto waved his hands towards her with a chuckle "Stop, you're making me blush"
Kurotsuchi had taken enough crap from this low life. Didn't he know who he was talking to? She was the granddaughter of the Tsuchikage!
"That's it I'm gonna kill you, you blonde bastard!" Kurotsuchi ran towards Naruto on top of the walls. Naruto held up his hands in a way to stop "Hey hey" he tried to calm her down "Relax, man" Kurotuschi had stopped running now in favor of giving Naruto a death glare "Man?" she questioned.
Naruto tried again, with a chuckle he corrected himself "Relax boy, there is no need for us to fight"
Even more red faced than earlier Kurotsuchi yelled so loud Naruto thought his eardrums would explode "I'M A GIRL, ASSHOLE!" when Naruto recovered from the loud yell his eyebrows was twitching in annoyance. Who was this person? Why was this person trying to deceive him, he had already figured out how to differentiate between a boy and a girl.
"Is that so?" Naruto asked a he slowly walked up to Kurotsuchi who was just a meter away from him. He poked her in the chest with his index finger. He felt something soft and heard Kurotsuchi release a quiet moan from her mouth.
"Well, fuck me" Naruto said in almost a whisper, he was fully aware of the danger he was in. Naruto didn't think it was possible to yell louder than what Kurotsuchi did earlier, but he was wrong.
"YOU'RE DEAD YOU DAMN PERVERT!" She yelled from the top of her lungs chasing after Naruto who had done the smart thing which was to run as fast he could. Kurotsuchi was throwing Kunai and Shuriken at Naruto while chasing him. They were running around inside the village and Naruto did not want any villager to get caught in the crossfire. This had Naruto run to a different location towards the nearest training grounds to avoid that.
When they reached an open grassy field of the training grounds - which happened to be training grounds 10, the one where Gai and his team usually trained at – Naruto was wondering how he was gonna get the "girl" to stop attacking him. He had no intention of actually fighting her since he nothing to gain from that, in fact it would just make him look bad. A konoha jounin fighting against a foreign genin kunoichi.. yes it would only spell trouble for him.
Naruto recognized the training grounds so he stopped and turned around to face Kurotsuchi. He could not go any further into the training grounds and risk running into Gai and his freak show. Kurotsuchi smirked at him and said "Not gonna run anymore?"
Naruto chuckled, he had already formed a plan to get her to leave him alone "Excuse me miss, would you mind.." Naruto stopped talking as his whole body shivered due to someone else showing up in front of him.
"Naruto, I dare you to finish that sentence" It was Kurenai standing in front of him with her arms folded under her chest. With a twitching eyebrow Naruto asked "What do you want, onna?"
Kurenai glared at him which had Naruto start sweating "I mean, what can I help you with, Kurenai-hime?"
"I have asked Tsunade-sama to borrow you for a few hours" Kurenai began "While you help me, Kakashi will take your place on your patrol duty"
"Patrol duty?" Naruto almost yelled "It's a very important mission that only I can do, that good for nothing Uchiha will only mess things up!"
Kurotsuchi stomped over to get in-between Kurenai and Naruto. With a glare she yelled "Don't forget about me, you bastard!"
Kurenai frowned at motioned towards Kurotsuchi "Who is this?" she asked in an almost accusing tone.
Naruto shrugged "I don't know"
They were doing it again, ignoring her with a "Tch" she formed a hand sign for a jutsu "Take this!" she yelled but stopped when Kurenai turned towards her with a mean look on her face.
"You!" she snapped at Kurotsuchi who responded with a quiet and nervous "Yes?"
"What business do you have with my man?" Kurenai was tired of every single female going after Naruto. She had decided that she wasn't going to let it happen anymore, she would chase them away with a stick if she had too.
"I'm gonna ki" Kurotsuchi started but stopped when she saw a dark aura surrounding Kurenai "Kiss?" Kurenai muttered "Get lost before I hurt you, you little bitch"
Kurotsuchi backed off slowly, she had meant to say that she was going to kick Naruto's ass, but she felt no need to explain that. She just wanted to get as far away from Kurenai as possible "You're lucky your woman is here to save you, I'll get you next time!" with that Kurotsuchi disappeared in a shunshin.
Naruto laughed at someone else having to experience the evil that was Kurenai.
"What's so funny?" Kurenai asked.
Naruto fake coughed into his hand "Nothing, what do you need me for?"
"I need your help to move my stuff out of my apartment" Kurenai explained.
Naruto nodded to that, he was expecting something far worse "You're moving?" he asked.
"Yes" Kurenai said simply then she smiled cutely at Naruto "I'm moving in with you!"
Time seemed to stop after Kurenai said that. This was like a scene taken from one of his recurring nightmares. Naruto thought on what to do next, should he run? Or should he fight her? No matter what he could not allow this to happen.
"Of course you are" Naruto said with a bright smile "Let's get going then" it was no point in fighting it, just let it happen.
As Naruto and Kurenai started walking towards her apartment, Naruto heard Kurama make whipping sounds and laugh at him.
'Shut it, you!' Naruto snarled at him.
Twenty minutes later
Kushina was training Tayuya outside in their large backyard. The chuunin exams was to begin in three days so Kushina wanted Tayuya to be fully prepared this time. Since Tayuya was a student of Kushina along with two of the three sannin, failure was not an option.
Kushina had Tayuya try to meditate so she could try to communicate with the three tails which she had not had much luck with before. So it was calm and quiet until she heard a lot of sounds coming from their house. She heard the sound of glass breaking making her think that maybe someone was foolish enough to try breaking into her house.
"Tayuya!" she spoke loudly as she shook her student to get her to return from her mindscape.
"What is it?" a confused Tayuya asked but before Kushina could answer Tayuya as well heard the sounds coming from their house. It sounded like two people were arguing.
"I think someone is trying to break into our house" Kushina explained.
"What?" Tayuya yelled "Let's show them why it's a bad idea to mess with ninjas!" Kushina could just nod to that as they ran back to their house. When they arrived they were quite surprised to see twenty Naruto clones carrying card board boxes and bags into his room. Standing outside his room was Kurenai who seemed to be instructing them.
"You didn't have to break the window, we could just enter by the front door" Kurenai told the real Naruto who was inside his room unpacking all of Kurenai's stuff.
"Stop complaining" Naruto whined "We got inside, didn't we?"
"Naruto, Kurenai, what's going on?" Kushina asked while Kurenai and Naruto turned to her and Tayuya as if just noticing they were here.
"Oh, hello mother, Tayuya" Naruto said in a bored tone "I'm just carrying Kurenai's stuff to my room"
Kurenai nodded "We are going to live together from now on"
"What?" Tayuya yelled as she turned to Kushina "No fucking way, right Kushina-nee?"
"Of course not!" Kushina roared "Why the hell didn't you ask me about this, this is my house!" she demanded.
"Kaa-sama" Kurenai sulked while Naruto frowned at them.
"Don't give me that" Kushina shouted at Kurenai "I have never liked your and Naruto's relationship and there is no way in hell I'm going to allow you two live together under my roof!"
Tayuya laughed "Serves you right, you bitch!" it might sound ruder than it was, it was just how Tayuya expressed herself.
"Naruto.." Kurenai pleaded, waiting for him to say something.
With a sigh Naruto stopped unpacking her stuff "What's the problem?" Naruto stood then walked next to Kurenai he pointed at her with his thumb and asked "Why don't you want the onna to live here?"
"Shithead why are you with her at all? I thought you and me were together since we did.." Tayuya began before she stopped due to embarrassed. Red faced she finished her sentence "You know, we made out!" she spurted out.
Kurenai turned to Tayuya with a glare while Kushina stared at her in shock. Kushina had always thought Naruto and Tayuya had more of a brother-sister relationship if anything.
"Don't tell me you like him as well?" Kushina asked Tayuya who raised an eyebrow in response "It's not like it's a fucking secret, nee-chan"
"What the hell, ttebane!" Kushina shouted comically "Is there a single girl in Konoha that doesn't have the hots for you, Naruto!?" The only reason she was this upset was because it meant more competition for her, but the others didn't have to know that.
Naruto shrugged causing Kurenai to giggle at his careless attitude "Anyway" Naruto spoke "If you don't want Kurenai to live here than I guess I will just have to move in with her"
Kurenai nodded "It's a shame, I was looking forward to us living together, Kaa-sama"
Naruto then turned to the frowning Tayuya "And Tayuya, just because I'm with Kurenai doesn't mean I can't be with you as well" he turned back to Kurenai with a wide smile "Isn't that right, Kurenai-hime?"
Kurenai clenched her right hand into a fist and gritted her teeth as she answered "Right.."
"Are you saying you want to date us at the same time?" Tayuya asked and by the look she gave Naruto, he knew that if he answered wrong, he would be in pain. Nevertheless, there was only one answer for her question "Yeah, but don't forget about Ino-chan, Anko-chan, Yugao-chan.." Naruto had to duck to dodge the fist that Tayuya had tried to slam into his face.
Naruto jumped back to create some distance between him and Tayuya, he had expected her to react similar to how Kurenai reacted when he told her.
"Calm down Tayuya" Kushina said as she grabbed Tayuya's shoulder to drag her back with her "To decide if Kurenai can live with us, there is only one thing we can do.."
Tayuya's eyes widened "No! Please not that" she pleaded, it was the most boring thing she had ever experienced.
"What are we doing?" Kurenai asked Naruto in confusion.
Naruto shrugged, he had been doing that a lot lately "Don't look at me"
It was time for the Uzumaki clan to have a clan meeting with all of it's members present.
