Kiss of fire
Her lips pressed against his and he returned in kind her affection. Before his mind could process what was happening his tongue met hers and began to play. He was reacting on instinct over experience doing his best to match her and praying she wouldn't stop kissing him. He placed his nervous hands softly against her waist, all the doubt in the world resting in his hands. As they kissed she placed her hands over his and then she lifted his hands and placed them firmly on her hips.
His heart began beating faster to the point he was struggling to think and remember what he wanted to do. He had planned this for so many years, going over and over in his mind what he would do. And yet in the moment he couldn't remember. Within moments he felt his pants tighten and all the blood rushed away from his face. This did not stop his face from blushing, even as they kissed in the dark he knew without a doubt in his mind he was as red as a tomato.
Then his mind took notice of the unbearable sound of his heart pounding in his chest. It was so loud, he just knew she could hear it too. She paused mid kiss and placed a hand on his hair and began to caress it softly. He was nearly whimpering now, wanting to feel her lips again. And without a word she returned her lips to his and they locked on perfectly. His mind blanked as he kissed her, he lost the ability to think.
Every second he kissed her, his mind slipped into the nirvana of a numb state of bliss. It was only until he felt her hands pull softly on his belt did he return to this world. He pulled back for a moment and tried to speak but no words left his mouth. A grin spread on his face as he patiently waited for her to remove his belt.
"Please" left his lips before his mind registered the word in his mouth.
She had him begging already before he could even find the words to ask. She didn't reply he just felt his belt snap open and slid out of his pants. He heard it clack on the floor as it hit it.
"Please" Left his mouth again but this time it was less than a whisper and more of a prayer.
It was 14 days after Naruto had returned to the village and he was now finally over his vacation. He had thought he would have spent it with Team 7 but that didn't happen. Sasuke was put on trial and while that happened Sakura had become his shadow by day 14 moving with him insync while he went through his day. After day 3 of the trial most charges had been dropped so Naruto didn't see the point of following the case any further instead of waiting for it to end.
The trial was stated to last 21 days exactly, so it wouldn't be long. Sasuke for his part had been a good sport, mostly because he tuned them out while Sakura had defended him. Kakashi had been present as well. And Naruto for his part had seen Sasuke and Kakashi daily. Greetings and goodbyes followed after every meeting but nothing else. He gave them space and they for their part they went gave him space.
At a certain point both sides just assumed the other wanted to be left alone so they did just that. But then there was Sakura, he greeted her and she returned it back but she wasn't all there. Her normal self wasn't back, it reminded him of when they had been genin. She was intensely focused on the trial but Naruto knew it was just because she wanted to get through it all as fast as she could to get back to being Team 7. And Naruto well he wasn't all there himself, he was distracted when he saw Sakura so when they did interact it was mostly surface interactions.
The kind of interactions you have with a coworker you knew but didn't actually spend time with. He was Distracted by how beautiful Sakura looked when she was all dolled up. Sakura everyday for the last 2 weeks had gone all out. She wore the most jaw dropping outfits he had ever seen on her and each time he saw her he had a single thought.
"Wow." All he could do was with a goofy smile grin like a kid who was given a bag of candy.
Of course they had been her attempt to grab Sasuke's attention but they ended up working on every other guy with a pulse in Konoha. And on Naruto they had given him ammo to dream up the most beautiful detailed fantasies in his short life. Sakura was so focused on the trial that she hadn't said a word other than "Hello." Of course that then led up to her saying
"I have to go because of the Trial." And then she was off on her day. Which left Naruto thinking all day how to next time talk to her more. But then the next day he would see her and well that never ended the way he wanted.
The sun finally reached the one spot on his window that wasn't covered by a black curtain. It reached over and practically hammered Naruto over the head with its intense light. Naruto rolled over immediately when it hit and fell onto his wooden floor. Within 5 seconds he was on his feet like a whip almost instantly as his morning lumber had landed first against the hard floor. A scream left his lips with such a high pitch anyone who had heard it could have mistaken it for a tea kettle releasing its steam. The scream to his neighbors closest to his bedroom wall heard something entirely different, it was the kind of scream that would awaken the dead in a horror movie that left his lips. His eyes shot open to the sight of his wooden floor before he pushed his body up onto his feet. His eyes began to tear up so badly he was almost whimpering.
Kakashi, who stood just outside Naruto's apartment, broke the door down with a single kick when he heard the scream. Within 15 seconds of entering the apartment he reached Naruto's bedroom door and gave it a solid kick breaking it down and then he entered the room in a blur of speed. Naruto had bent his body slightly arching his back while standing , his body was shaking and he dared not move anything.
He had placed a single hand over his wounded soldier and was pressing the absolute minimum pressure to see if he would scream out in pain if he tried to touch it. Kakashi found Naruto tending to his morning lumber. On Naruto's side he turned around the moment he heard his door break down. Kakashi's face was shifted into one of great concern while Naruto had his face shift from intense pain wincing to a confused pained expression. Kakashi without saying a word simply looked down to Naruto's right hand which was placed over his boxers.
"Naruto" Kakashi spoke first before Naruto could. It was such a soft voice he almost didn't hear it. Naruto's eyes widened and then they shifted to his boxers.
"Kakashi sensei!" He frantically turned around to search for his pants but stopped in his track when he felt the softest of all breezes hit his soldier and the pain returned.
The wind had been generated by his frantic turns and it had brought back with it an unholy pain. Naruto closed his mouth firmly shut but couldn't stop two streams of tears from falling from his face. Kakashi for his part took two steps back and turned his back to Naruto. His right hand found itself resting behind his neck not ready to scratch his neck but just over it in case he was ready.
"I heard the scream and thought you needed help." Kakashi admitted out loud.
Kakashi refused to look back at Naruto as he spoke. He waited just barely outside the room of Naruto. Naruto turned a deep red as he desperately wanted to put his pants on but couldn't.
"I fell." Naruto simply replied.
Kakashi didn't reply but simply scratched the back of his neck.
"I thought you would have said a spider bit your ummmm." Kakashi replied.
Kakashi walked outside Naruto's bedroom. He waited outside the door and stood there as if guarding the room, his back turned so he faced away from the room. Naruto didn't reply but simply sat down on his bed and then turned his head to the doorway.
"You got here pretty fast." Naruto replied, avoiding Kakashi's response. Kakashi licked his lips as he suddenly felt his mouth get dry.
"About that." Kakashi trailed off dreading the thing he was about to do. A simple one worded response was all Kakashi got from Naruto.
"What?" Naruto replied his words conveying a soft hiss of pain as he had accidentally shifted in his bed.
"We have a mission from the Hokage, I recommended you and Sakura and it has priority." Kakashi replied. Kakashi cracked his fingers as he waited for Naruto's response.
Naruto didn't reply for 2 minutes before Kakashi repeated his sentence completely sure Naruto had not heard him.
"What's the mission?...Where are we going?...Are you coming too or is it just me and Sakura?" Naruto replied.
Half of his words holding portions of his pained groans. Kakashi turned around certain Naruto had his pants on fully on after he had given him almost 5 minutes, walked into the room.
Naruto looked up when he heard Kakashi's footsteps. Kakashi's eyes locked onto the boxers at his feet the moment he entered the room and within moments he closed his eyes firmly before he saw something that would scar him for life. Naruto's hand shot down to cover himself but accidently touched his soldier and let out a scream of terrible pain.
"I closed my eyes….I didn't see anything at all." Kakashi yelled out loud as he squeezed his eyes shut and left the room.
Over his shoulder he yelled out loud he would be outside waiting for Naruto. True to his word Kakashi waited outside for Naruto. For over two hours he sat outside his apartment with a book in his hand. For the first 30 minutes he was very happy Naruto didn't come outside his apartment to join him. In all honesty if he was honest to himself the first hour he was immensely happy not to see Naruto. But the last half hour before Naruto arrived had started to become a drag.
Kakashi began to think about just pushing the broken door open and entering. Then the image of Naruto's boxers at his feet returned to his mind. It was too vivid for his liking and he thought better and waited instead. Naruto just at the 2 hour mark did finally appear. He didn't meet Kakashi gaze and his face turned just as red as Kakashi when they acknowledged each other. Kakashi cleared his throat acknowledging Naruto was there. While Naruto tapped the floor three times with his foot. Kakashi stood up and rested his arms on the guard rails and Naruto did the same but after reaching a safe distance of 4 feet between them.
"I wasn't." Naruto mumbled out loud. Kakashi raised a hand in front of him showing the stop motion.
Neither man dared to look directly at the other. "Your mission." Naruto continued.
Kakashi cleared his throat once again. "It will be your mission along with Sakura." Kakashi replied.
"When and what is the mission about?" Naruto mumbled.
Kakashi eyes settled down on a neighboring building as he did his best not to look in Naruto's direction.
"Tomorrow and Hōzuki Castle." Kakashi replied.
"I am a bit tender and sensitive." Naruto replied back his ears turning red.
Kakashi ears turn deep red themselves.
"Two days?" Kakashi replied with a smile forming on his lips.
"Can we keep this between us?" Naruto replied his voice almost begging Kakashi.
"You don't want me to tell Sakura why you need 2 days, because i was about to go inform her about the mission?" Kakashi replied with a smirk while his face firmly looked forward.
Naruto clenched his hands into fists. "Kakashi sensei!" Naruto replied back fiercely.
"3 days from now, and the mission will be to meet a contact by the name of Ryuzetsu, she is to be connected to our intel line and then when that is done...make contact with us but do not leave Hōzuki Castle". Kakashi stated in a factual tone.
Naruto turned his head towards Kakashi as he heard the name. Kakashi still had his face firmly planted forward as he avoided looking at Naruto.
"She passed away saving my life." Naruto replied. Kakashi didn't turn but shook his head. "When the war broke out, Kabuto had her body retrieved and brought to him." Kakashi stated in a grim tone.
Naruto, still staring at the side of Kakashi's face , remained quiet as he clenched his fist tightly in anger.
"At the time he was in possession of Chiyo edo tensei form " Kakashi stated in a soft voice.
Naruto ears perked up at the mention of her. It had been even longer since he had heard her name.
"Chiyo gave her life to restore Gaara's own life after the Akatsuki stole his tailed beast." Kakashi reminded Naruto. Naruto was shaking from anger at the thought of Kabuto using her after her brave sacrifice.
Kakashi motioned with his hands as he spoke.
"So what he did was use Itachi's sharingan to pull the knowledge from Chiyo and then implant it into a medical nin on the battlefield who then did the sacrifice." Kakashi
cracked his neck after pausing for a moment. (Itachi planted the knowledge of the Mangekyou sharingan into Sasuke to trigger when exposed to a sharingan).
"Why not keep her in edo tensei form?" Naruto replied furiously. Kakashi inhaled sharply some air into his nose.
"Because while its an immortal body and has virtually infinite chakra, their powers are reduced still and are weaker than what they had been in life ... Remember how powerful Madara was when he left his edo tensei form?" Kakashi replied.
Naruto scratched his throat then rubbed his eyes in frustration.
"After the war was over we had several anbu ops scavenge the bases we knew had been in use by Kabuto and the Akatsuki. '' Kakashi turned his head to meet Naruto's eyes.
Naruto's deep blue eyes stared unmoving at Kakashi.
"Kabuto had planned on restoring Ryuzetsu to study her limitations and did so according to a journal entry…. if it was possible to replicate her powers once pushed past her biological limits they could possibly reach a point where a person could revive the dead without needing to die…..that was his hope." Kakashi stated without blinking.
Naruto looked away from Kakashi his face twisting into one of disgust and anger. "Chiyo technique like Ryuzetsu restored life and it went further even reviving the dead but just as Ryuzetsu it used life essense to heal…. it could be taught and it wasn't a bloodline trait that allowed her to do it so in a way was more useful but Ryuzetsu's body was made specifically to heal." Kakashi stated it with a hint of disapproval.
"Because it could be taught, it wasn't special?" Naruto replied back his eyebrows furrowed.
"For Kabuto and Orochimaru yes it was less special, once it was learned they could throw away the first user of the technique in this case Chiyo but…." Kakashi spoke
Naruto's mind formed the face of Orochimaru and Kabuto. His memory of their experiments returning. Kakashi continued
" more importantly she had the bloodline that made her perfect for this technique and she was made for the technique a scalpel while Chiyo technique was a butcher knife anyone could use…. Ryuzetsu has a bloodline trait that allows her to heal so if pushed past her limits could give the true key to immortality….. by surpassing what Chiyo's One's Own Life Reincarnation Technique with her modified specialized version of the Dragon Life Reincarnation technique . " Kakashi stated in a factual tone.
"So it couldn't be taught to just anyone ….. More reason Orochimaru would want it…..a possible host body for Orochimaru or like the first hokage be used to create clones?" Naruto replied in a mumble. Kakashi simply nodded.
"How do you know she will be at Hōzuki Castle?...Did you make contact after the war ended?...Is she in trouble right now?" Naruto asked in a brunt fashion his arms frantically swinging as he spoke.
Kakashi looked his student in his blue eyes again, trying to calm him. He spoke slowly, forcing him to calm down or be denied any new information .
"The anbu discovered her cell empty, when we cleaned out one of the hideouts and there was evidence that she broke the lockdown and forced her way out….once free where would she go but home?" Kakashi replied.
Naruto looked down at the ground. "Is she in danger?" Naruto asked softly.
"Orochimaru knows she is alive now since he was fused with Kabuto at the time he revived her, and Kabuto as well obviously knows…...we should assume he will search her out and kidnap her to experiment with her unique bloodline." Kakashi stated grimly.
"I can go tomorrow with Sakura to find her. I don't need 3 days." Naruto replied in a furious tone.
"Take 3 days to recover…. better to leave at full strength, we had no intel telling us Orochimaru or Kabuto is hunting her right now, at this point Orochimaru might just be trying to return to full strength or pick up the pieces we don't know, do not take anyone else with you as you don't want to scare off Ryuzetsu….she came back from the dead and might be coming to grips with being revived better to meet with familiar faces even if that means taking a little longer to find her." Kakashi wagged his index finger at Naruto. Naruto simply nodded.
Naruto closed the door, it was broken and any force would just send it forward or backwards but he still closed it. As he was walking towards his broken Bedroom door did he finally let out a breath of air. He closed his eyes the moment he sat down on his bed. He laid down on the bed with his eyes closed and began to imagine.
He imagined Hōzuki Castle in all its glory again. And then he remembered Ryuuzetsu and smiled a happy smile at the thought of seeing her again. Before his mind returned to his sweet dream, pulling him back to his happy place inside his favorite dream.
Kakashi found himself taking a long walk home, he wanted to walk off this entire day off. Hoping it would slip away into a forgotten memory. Before he had reached the third block away from Naruto's apartment a scream of agony was heard. He turned around immediately, and a man next to him did the same.
The man was far older than Kakashi and had earned his gray hair through years of living. Before either man could even think to do anything a local shop owner moved out of their shop and raised his hand to stop them. His extended hand signaling they wait for him to reach them.
Kakashi looked down to the man who was a foot shorter than him and at least 15 years his senior and waited for him to speak.
"Don't worry about the scream it comes from the direction the no good blonde hair prankster, just move along" He made a dismissive motion like he was sweeping with his right hand.
Kakashi looked him over and smiled while the other man frowned. "The Hero of Konoha" The other man replied.
"That is the one, I am sure he was the one who screamed in pain". The shop owner replied.

So naruto still thinks she loves sasuke
So far he does, but hasn't had time to talk to Kakashi or Sasuke or maybe even Sakura about the situation.

Pretty cool story.
Your punctuation breaks a lot of rules but it's not too distracting. Just for future reference to improve your writing, you should work on that. Also you make word pair errors every once in awhile. A lot of people do but again, every writer wants to improve their writing and using proper punctuation and not mixing up word pairs is a minor but fundamental part of that.
Even though we haven't seen it yet, the idea of chakraless children is a good one. Some of the parings are surprising but it's nice to read something new once in awhile. I usually don't read future stories and I'm guessing that the children will be different from cannon due to different pairings but I can see this going somewhere if you plan this out right. Not a huge fan of OCs, which the chakraless children probably will be, but I'll stick around to see where this story goes. It has potential.
If there was a program that did the punctuation for me, I would be punching out chapters out like a madman. It's the punctuation that slows me down as I do my best to follow the rules so I don't get flamed about how i am XYZ for not following the rules. No lie that really happens they really go after you. I am currently working to improve my accuracy to the rules of writing. Thank you for your comment on chakraless children, i came up with it on the spot. I just write because I like Sasuhina and when i write a story about them i just ask myself what would be a cool spin. Thank you for your review.
Monkey D. Dre chapter 3 . Oct 21, 2019
I am loving this story so far! SasuHina is very underrated (My second favorite next to NaruSaku) and I like how you have written all of the characters so far. InoGaara is One I've never really thought about. After hearing your reasoning in your previous chapter, I'm all for it!
I have always said Sasuhina is so underrated. Most people don't even give it a try. Ino and gaara i have seen here and there in fanfiction but what got me interested was when i saw a good drawing of them and i thought huh. Thank you for your review.
College n Curls chapter 3 . Dec 20, 2019
Great start just space out the paragraphs to not look so chunky. Keep writing!
I will try to space out my paragraphs. I just thought paragraph chunks was how everyone liked reading but i think i am not in the norm. Thank you for your review.
Chapter: 3Chapter 1. Chapter 1 02/22/2020
Nice story you have here. It only sucks that now the story is getting somewhere that you stopped updating. lol. It happens, but it still sucks. Your story is good though.
A couple of grammar things I'd like to point out. I know you've already fixed some of them, but there are more that needs to be addressed. When I show someone is speaking in their thoughts, I Italicize the words and use apostrophes instead of quotation marks.
When someone is speaking, I noticed you place the period after the quotation marks. The period comes before the quotation Marks. For example: Naruto looked over to Sakura and sighed, "Well, I wouldnt have done it without you."
Another thing. Always capitalize names. And lastly, when you write the word "I", it should always be capitalized.
I'm hoping to see more from you soon. You left it on a cliffhanger.
Sorry about that, i tried 4 different ways to write the next chapter and it got me angry. I would get an idea than write and then get stuck then i would try to finish what i started and get a new idea which i thought worked better than i would lose it. Writers block for you. Thank you for your review, its because i saw the notification that i decided to try again today and punched out a chapter. I will use your italicized trick and see if everyone likes it. I will follow your .) rule from now on. Capitalize names and I got it. Well today is much sooner than you thought. Thank you for your review.
