"We have gathered to determine the outcome for the said kitsune, named Naruto-kun, that is currently bonded with the Uchiha pack. The Uchiha pack has stated their explanation of recent events." A voice stated out.
Another voice spoke, "the kitsune has been under protection of the council for practically most of his life. It would make sense for the council to be involved and get regular updates on the progress. Naturally this—,"
"Protection!? You call that, whatever it is that was done, protection?!" Sasuke sputtered out, interrupting the council member that was speaking.
"Sasuke!" Itachi hissed out a warning.
"But nii-san, you heard what—what the—!" Sasuke argued back.
"AS I WAS SAYING," a council member then rose his voice. Sasuke snarled his teeth but remained quiet. "The kitsune is the only one of its kind. It's an endangered species and should be put under protective custody!"
"Like HELL!" Sasuke yelled out again.
"SILENCE!" a voice boomed from the across the room. "Last warning Uchiha-sama. I will have you removed should you speak out of turn again!"
Sasuke ground his teeth together as he held back his voice. Itachi threw him a look of understanding and nodded. The discussion continued between the council regarding what should be done with Naruto's life and Sasuke became more and more hostile within. Sasuke didn't know how much longer he would be able to hold himself back as it appeared the council was treating Naruto more like a prize possession rather than respecting him as his mate.
Tobi-sama and a few of his pack members came forth. They wanted to give their thoughts on the situation and what had happened at the island and manor. "Tobi-sama. You chose to take your pack members to an island you had no knowledge of, to retrieve a said kidnapped Uchiha pack member and didn't bother to question?" A council member spoke up, eyeing Tobi. Sasuke could feel the nails of his hands digging into his palms at the questions the members were asking the Uchiha supporters.
"Kakashi-san, you have been involved in tracking the kitsune for some time now and you were involved with the Uchiha on the island and the manor. We will hear your statement next." Sasuke glared at Kakashi when the council spoke of Kakashi's long term involvement with Naruto. He still wasn't aware of how long Kakashi had been watching over Naruto, his relationship with Naruto and where he expected the 'watchdog' status to end up as. Sure, Sasuke could appreciate the group Kakashi was with but how would Kakashi get through this questioning without mentioning the Hogosha?
"Kakashi-san, you along with a small group of vigilantes, attended the island and manor on the belief of…?" the council waited for Kakashi to finish the sentence.
"On the belief that Naruto-kun was being held against his will, violated and tortured," Kakashi filled in. "I would appreciate that you do not call small pack mates vigilantes. We are simply a small group of friends who don't have a steady pack, that meet together for coffee and bar-be-ques." He waved his hand about and his voice sounded annoyed. "No were creature of any sort should be held against their will and subjected to means that cause harm. I had every reason to believe that is what was Naruto-kun was being subjected to." Kakashi crossed his arms and huffed out in annoyance. Sasuke found himself that he was quite impressed with that statement.
"The council will now meet with council member Tsunade-sama and discuss the final verdict in the council chambers." The members stood at the announcement and left the room. Sasuke bit back at his wolf as much as possible. The whole discussion of Naruto was preposterous and inhumane! His claws continuously raked at his legs, his anxiety at the height of him ready to rip someone's head off.
"Calm yourself otouto. This is only a discussion and council knows they cannot take your mate from our clan," Itachi hissed out. He sounded incredibly calm and Sasuke was ready to start flipping tables and benches because of it.
"Any involvement they think they have in Naruto's life is a problem," Sasuke spit out between clenched teeth.
It wasn't long before the council members returned to the room. Tsunade was the last to enter, her face looking flushed and her eyes looking irritated. She cast a quick glance Sasuke's way but it was over just as quickly and Sasuke wasn't able to read her expression.
"The council would like to bring forward the recommendations for the Uchiha clan regarding the kitsune that has bonded with a member of the clan." The council elder that spoke turned his eyes to Itachi and Sasuke. "The mating contract between the Uchiha clan and the Sanin clan is null and void. Firstly due to the Sanin clan having violated their part of the contract regarding tampering with a mate. And second, due to the violation and unauthorized testing against other creatures including the kitsune, is directly illegal against the rights of were-creatures. The council will not support any contract and/or clan that would directly practice illegal activities." Sasuke and Itachi both sighed relief quietly to themselves.
"In regards to the protection of the kitsune. Council would like to continue with the monitoring and—"
"Excuse me," a voice called from the doors. Murmurs and gasps broke out throughout the room as all heads turned towards the voice. "I do believe I have a right to a say regarding my own wellbeing and life thank you very much!" the voice barked out sharply. Sasuke's eyes widened at the body that appeared into the room.
The tall broad shouldered male strode into the room; his jaw set firm, blue eyes scowled at the council members seated at the front of the room and his hands flexed continuously. He was dressed in a sharp dark blue blazer with white shirt and tie, crisp pants and dress shoes that clipped upon the floor as he made his way to the front. "Since when has it been law to determine someone else's life?" Naruto growled out when he stopped in the centre. Several council members dropped their jaws looking on at the confident male that broke through the air. "I'm here to speak on my own behalf!" He growled out as his eyes flickered to all the members.
"Naruto, what are you doing here?" Sasuke hissed out lowly. He was supposed to be at the manor, caring for their pups and ensuring they were all safe! The alpha within was suddenly overwhelmed with the anxiety of not knowing where the pups were.
Naruto gave Sasuke a small smile. "It's okay Sas," he whispered. "They are safe with Haku and Karin. Not to mention a bunch of other pack wolves from Tobi's clan." He firmed his face then and turned to look to the front again. "I will not be treated like a number, a thing, or anything other than a person with as much rights as anyone else in this room." The room was suddenly very silent with all eyes on the broad blond kitsune that stood.
Sasuke felt the pride swelling as his eyes took in the stunning features of his mate. Dressed sharply in a blazer jacket, his thick unruly wavy sunshine hair falling just above his shoulders and highlighted the firm features of his cheek bones that lead to his sharp jaw line and smooth throat. The muscles were taunt and strait going down his neck to well defined collar that Sasuke shivered about as he recalled running his tongue along those features.
"I have been informed, and sadly, also was shown, of what exactly my ancestors had been subjected to throughout the centuries." He shook his head sadly as he remembered what Honshu had shown him. "The torture inflicted upon them! And from what?! From the fear and greed your ancestors were riddled with, that trickled to this day in age! .DAY!" He waved his arms up in an exasperated measure. "It angers and disgusts me to think that an amazing gift that was bestowed upon a dying woman's wish to save her child, had been painfully subjected to the ignorance of mankind." He growled and ground his teeth as his voice grew more aggressive. "The gift could have been lost to who possessed it, but no, she had begged for it to continue and it was granted. THIS— THIS VERY GIFT!" he spat out with anger as he pointed his fingers at all of them, "had been passed down through your ancestors to every single ONE OF YOU!ALL OF YOU!" He pointed and waved his finger about again. "And how do you thank the gods for it?!" He growled out through his teeth and his eyes instantly flicked to ruby red. The members of council looked upon him, many eyes gave the look of guilt, a couple looked offended that the kitsune say such a thing and there were the few that gave looks of pride. Naruto read them all and his fox clawed out, wanting to take revenge on those who reeked with guilt and sin. He bit back the fox even though the visions of expelling his anger upon those looked almost appealing. "You all," he spat out as his eyes passed through them all, "make me sick!" He hissed and spit out with venom. "And the lot of you dare call yourselves democratic!" He stopped and gave a soft smile to Tsunade and a wink. "Though," he took a deep breath in. "There are some of you that I have hope for. And some of you could learn from them," he snapped out the last sentence.
Naruto took a few deep breaths before continuing. "If any of you think that I, and my family, are specimens that needs to be recorded, monitored, measured, weighed, poked, prodded, watched or what-fucking-ever—! And if any—any of you make any such moves to even touch my family, I will personally come for you!" Naruto's growls were released from the last few sentences, his eyes glowed red and even his hair looked to be electrified as it stood on end. The marks on his face had deepened to enhance the warning his inner fox gave out. He snorted out a final huff before turning around and heading out the door. Sasuke jumped up and followed his mate out but before he left he gave a final glare at all the council members as well. Itachi gave a small smile as he listened to the two leave.
Naruto stormed through the door, directly making his way to the outdoors. He growled lowly when someone grabbed his wrist to hold him back. Pissed off red eyes turned to find the one who dare hold him back, canines extended and ready to lash out.
"Dobe—" A baritone voice purred out in an impossible low voice. Half lidded soft black eyes focused on raging red.
"Sas'ke?" Naruto stuttered out as he was suddenly whisked into the arms of the waiting alpha. "Hey! Whoa—!" His lips were pressed against warm plump ones of his alpha quickly and warm arms held him close. The fox melted instantly in the alpha's arms and Naruto felt his eyes drift close as he returned the kiss. The desired sensations coming from the wolf shot goosebumps all through Naruto's body and he released a sensual moan. Warm hands were caressing his body, creating a heat wave trembling through him. The fox was nothing but putty in the heat encased bubble that the wolf created.
The wolf pulled back and grinned at the flushed look of his mate. Naruto's eyes were unfocused and half lidded, his lips partially open giving soft gasping breaths with a smile and a healthy reddish glow on his cheeks. "Na-ru-to," Sasuke purred into the fox's ear. Sasuke was searing with desire. Watching his mate stand up to the council members, his frustrations seeping out through his speech, and the aura of his fox spirit pulsing out waves of domination over the room left Sasuke's alpha snarling in pride and wanting to take his mate right there on the floor. Be damned of where they were, his alpha wanted to show the world that this proud powerful omega mate was his. "I want you," the alpha purred out demanding.
Naruto blinked several times before his blue eyes focused on Sasuke. "BAKA!" Naruto pushed Sasuke of him. "What you doing that here for! There are people every—!" His speech was cut off as Sasuke pulled him back into his chest. Red eyes flared up at the blue eyes along with a low dominating growl. Naruto glared back, but smirked at the same time. "You pervy bastard," he whispered through his lips that nearly touched the alpha's. Their noses were inches apart, they could taste each other's breath. "I came straight from home," he responded huskily. Sasuke's possessiveness grew as the omega spoke of their home being his. "Haku and Karin are making sure the pups are okay while I came here. I had planned to head straight back home afterwards." Naruto breathed out again, his lips brushing against the alpha's as he formed the words. "Unless…you had other plans alpha?" Naruto hinted out and a licked the alpha's bottom lip teasingly.
Sasuke snarled at the innuendo and grabbed the omega's ass possessively. He squeezed the globes hard causing the omega to gasp in surprise. "I need you, now!" Sasuke growled into Naruto's ear as he turned, keeping his arm around the omega's waist and leading them out of the corridor. Naruto squeaked out in surprise but kept his stride beside the heated alpha as they made their way out of the building.
==/\/\==
Sasuke pushed Naruto against the hotel room door after it closed, his lips devouring the taste of his mate instantly. His alpha growled in agreement as his tongue was instantly granted access to the delicious cavern of the blond. The moans escaped the blond mouth that vibrated through the alpha. Hands were moving all over, both demanding access to the other immediately. "F-Fuck Naru—" Sasuke hummed out as he felt the omega claw at his pants and shirt, his small claws leaving scratches that tantalized his senses. "Fuck, you were so—I so wanted—oh my god, you—you," Sasuke growled out as his teeth nibbled his way down the strong sinew neck, his tongue followed the firm outline of Naruto's collar bone. "Your demands, your power, fuck—fuck I want you so bad." Sasuke's claws poked into Naruto's ass that caused the omega to hiss out.
"Ah Sa-Sasuke, not if I take you first," Naruto growled out as he twisted around pushing Sasuke against the door with his body and then twisted the alpha's nipples with his fingers causing the alpha to snap out in pleasure. Naruto then grabbed the alpha's wrists and forced them over the alpha's head against the door, ground his hard groin into the raven's bulge and bit into the alpha's lower lip. "Who do you belong to alpha?" Naruto growled out huskily against the raven's lips as he thrust his groin against the other again.
Sasuke's alpha howled out in erotic pleasure as it accepted the dominate nature of the omega. Prideful as he was though, Sasuke just snapped his teeth at the omega, his eyes glowing red with excitement and he pushed his own hardness against the omega's groin causing the omega to hiss in response. He smirked with mirth as the omega's now glowing reddish orange eyes responded with such hunger that Sasuke felt goosebumps raise all over his body. Sasuke was eager to see and feel the omega's next move.
Naruto used one hand to hold Sasuke's wrists above his head and moved his other clawed hand leisurely down Sasuke's rib cage and to his slacks. The skilled clawed hands flicked the button and the slacks fell with a slight swoosh noise, leaving Sasuke in his boxer briefs. The coolness of the room with the slick trailing of the omega's tongue on his neck caused the hairs on his neck to stand and Sasuke shivered with anticipation. The omega purred out in agreement to the reaction as it ran its clawed hand back up the solid pale chest still holding the unbuttoned shirt. "Who do you belong to alpha?" the omega demanded again as he traced a clawed finger around a nipple. Sasuke couldn't stop the gasp as tingles zapped straight down to his cock. He couldn't help but to turn his head to the side, exposing his neck to the fangs of the omega as Naruto bit at his neck. "Ha-ha-Naru—" Sasuke panted out. His alpha was quivering with such sexual energy that his knees were shaking, threatening to give out. The omega smirked into Sasuke's neck, "good boy," he breathed heavily. He let go of Sasuke's wrists and the alpha wasted no time in gathering up the omega in a heated growl over his shoulder and making the few steps towards the bed.
Sasuke dove onto the omega he threw onto the bed. His clawed hands running up the smooth sun kissed muscled chest, ripping the shirt in the process and the omega arched his back up, releasing mewls of surprise. Sasuke thrust his still clothed rock hard cock against the others matching hard bulge, still confined within the omega's pants, growling out with want as the friction between the two sent sparks within him. The omega responded with small gasps of want. "You are mine omega," Sasuke howled out as he nipped at Naruto's nipples. The groaning omega urged him to continue as Sasuke suckled at one nub and his fingers twisted at the other. He dragged his tongue down the muscled trail to the pants and swiped the pants off, boxers and all to reveal his prize. The omega's cock, stiff and proud, glistened on the head with the scent of desire and nestled within the blond nest of curls. The alpha drooled at the delicious treat before him. Without warning, Sasuke engulfed the omega's cock quickly and Naruto howled out in surprise.
Slick gushed from the omega's opening, smelling rich with sweet aroma that the alpha became hazy and drunk with lustful hunger. The omega gripped blue black locks within his fingers, causing small stings of pain that urged the alpha to suckle more at the ridged cock, dragging this canines slightly over the silky skin and causing the omega to cry out. The omega's legs trembled from the assault and Sasuke's tongue lathered around the head, dipping into the slit that had the omega arching up and orgasming instantly into the alpha's awaiting mouth. Swallowing his prize, Sasuke massaged the omega's taunt sack as he lightly bobbed his head through the omega's orgasm.
As the omega's body trembled with aftershocks, Sasuke hoisted Naruto's ass up and ran his tongue down the slick opening. His alpha throbbed with want, tasting the savory essence on his tongue of the omega and Sasuke thrust his tongue within the heat. "NNnnggghh – ah f-fuck Sas!" the omega wailed out in pleasure, his hands gripping at the sheets and his toes curled. Sasuke hummed out as he lapped up the rich scented slick, enjoying how he was making the omega squirm. "Who's your alpha?" Sasuke growled out lowly as his hands squeezed the globes and his tongue assaulted Naruto's hole. The omega wriggled and wailed out in pleasure and Sasuke growled out more. "Who's your alpha!" Sasuke demanded as his managed to slap his hand on one of the tanned globes, emanating a squeak from Naruto's lips. "Ah-ah-ahhh! Oh my god… oh you-you-YOU!" Naruto wailed out as his hole gushed more slick and Sasuke buried his mouth onto the opening, licking, lapping and flattening his tongue across the rim. Naruto's legs trembled and squeezed Sasuke's head before the omega grabbed the blue black locks and pulled hard. "Enough play!" he snarled out and pulled Sasuke up his body and slamming their lips together.
The alpha snarled in response and pushed the omega down then flipping him over. Quickly shedding his boxer briefs, he pushed down on the blonde's shoulder blades and leaned over to sink his teeth into Naruto's shoulder with a growl. Naruto howled out in shock but his body convulsed, rocking his body into the alpha's ridged cock, and then the omega purred and shivered. Sasuke licked at the bite and nibbled at the mating mark he left upon his omega so many months ago. The alpha felt his pride swell at seeing the mark on his mate and the ache in his loins exploded as the omega lay willingly presenting himself to him. The purring and mewing coming from the Naruto's lips as well as the omega's ass caressing his engorged cock had Sasuke keeping his hands steady on the omega's shoulder blades, as he drew his hips back and penetrated the slicked and heated rim with a quick thrust. The clenching heat of the omega had Sasuke biting into his lower lip to still himself from becoming feral and just pistoning in and out. Naruto gulped out in a whimper when penetrated, which left his entrance convulsing around the alpha's large girth, getting used to the stretch. Sasuke hissed out as his balls contracted painfully as his alpha gnawed at his mentality, demanding he pound the omega hard and fast.
Slick began to seep out from around the thick shaft and Naruto reached behind him, grasping his ass and kneaded his globes. "What's the matter alpha? Too tired to continue?" Naruto taunted Sasuke as his fingers flexed and spread his cheeks, his face turned sideways to give a smirk towards him. The alpha bore his canines at the taunt and began slide the thick cock out slowly. Naruto's eyes rolled up as he gasped for air. Sasuke inwardly grinned as he slowly slid his cock back in to the hilt, then repeated. Naruto whimpered out suddenly at each slow agonizing thrust and Sasuke chuckled deeply. "What's the matter omega? Too much for you?" he grunted out as he continued the slow thrusting. He bit his lip as he endured the slow pace, his alpha roaring in his ears from the torment. His alpha snarled and slammed at his senses, demanding he absorb his mate now.
Sasuke pushed down on Naruto's shoulder blades again, forcing the omega to lift his ass high as he began a brutal pace. Naruto cried out in pleasure with each thrust, his arms reaching above his head to grasp the mattress and keep from being forced into the headboard from the propelling cock. His body screamed in bliss as Sasuke's cock filled him full. The thick shaft touched every sensory area that had Naruto's mind fogged and buzzing with endorphins. He panted out each glorified whimper, his fox wanting more and more…
Sasuke's alpha snarled in ferocity as the omega lay panting, glowing and smelling of pleasure. Sasuke's eyes glowed red, his canines elongated as he leaned over to clamp onto the omega's neck. At contact Naruto spasmed out a cry of ecstasy and released his orgasm beneath him into the bed. The alpha within growled out with satisfaction as Sasuke continued to pound the omega into the mattress, teeth still clamped onto the tan slicked sweaty skin.
Red vapor began to rise from the blonde's skin, light in colour and began to swirl lazily around the two. Naruto's eyes were still hazed over in reddish orange lust as Sasuke continued to slam all the sensory areas within him. Longer claws began to extend slowly from Naruto's hands, but he didn't notice as his mind was a whirlwind of extreme pleasure. The alpha panted between clenched teeth as he penetrated deeply, making the omega mew out pleasurably. Without warning, Sasuke released his hold and flipped Naruto onto his back, placing Naruto's legs on his arms as he leaned over, shoved his dripping cock back into the sweet slicked heat and locked his lips with Naruto's. The omega responded by wrapping his arms around the alpha's neck and deepening the kiss and twisting his tongue with the other. The reddish fog began to thicken and swirl up and around the two, both oblivious to the situation happening around them.
The red thickened in colour as it rolled around the pair, lifting their hair and teasing it up and down as the two were lost in their passion. Purple began to seep from the alpha's pores, as steam would from a heated dish of food, and began to twirl with the red. The two colours began to blend as the two lovers moaned and hummed in their pleasures until the swirl of colour above turned a deep magenta. Naruto's back arched suddenly as his head fell back, eyes rolled back and his lips fell open in a gasp. Sasuke lurched up and arched as his head fell back, eyes squinted shut and he howled passionately.
Sasuke fell back on his knees, pulling Naruto with him to straddle his lap who began to grind his ass onto Sasuke's cock. The omega's teeth began to elongate as his head fell back and the fox cried out with a need. As the omega's body rocked with the alpha, his head flipped forward and the omega dropped his canines into the alpha's neck. The alpha roared out as he squeezed the trembling omega and slammed his cock over and over into the omega's heat. The omega's fangs held tight as it snarled from each push, each deep thrust and clawed his hands on the alpha's back. Sasuke fell forward, his hands trapped under Naruto but his hips still plowed continuously into the clenching heat of the omega. The sounds of their slapping skin echoed off the walls as the magenta fog swirled around the two with a sudden velocity.
Sasuke shifted so his feet were now on either side of Naruto's body, his ass bouncing up and down between Naruto' spread legs and Naruto's teeth still embedded on his neck. Grunts with sweat dripping into the pillow beneath Naruto's head, Sasuke could feel his heavy sack tighten and the swelling of his knot beginning to form. Endorphins raced through Sasuke's veins as he trembled between thrusts. "Nnggh, f-fuck f-fuck mine," he growled out as he gave longer harder thrusts to deepen his need until behind his eyes he exploded with stars. The lightening shocks of pleasure rushed through his system that Sasuke blacked out momentarily. The pleasurable cry of the omega was heard as Naruto released his biting hold on Sasuke's shoulder and shook and convulsed from his own orgasm that released between their bodies. The fox cried out in bliss as the alpha knot formed hard and deep within. The two bodies quivered and rocked slower and slower, both drowning in a sea of pleasurable endorphins and not noticing the magenta vortex above them slowing and eventually dispelling straight up into nothing.
Sasuke was the first to lift his head and look down at the panting sated omega. He ran his palm over the blonde's forehead gently. "Naruto?" he whispered out, slight concern in his voice. Naruto's eyes were closed, his lips were slightly parted and panting, his body sheen with sweat. Red dusted his face and Sasuke moved slightly that drew a whimper from the fox. The alpha's ego was practically screaming out as a solid knot had situated itself deep within the blond omega. Sasuke gently placed his lips upon the plump pink ones and dipped his tongue within the cavern. The omega hummed out and responded by twisting his tongue with Sasuke's. Sasuke moved his lips gently and lovingly, coxing the blond to open his eyes. The omega was still trembling from the intensity of their love making and Sasuke pecked kisses on the blonde's nose and cheek.
Blue eyes flickered open and Naruto gave the alpha a smile when he focused on soft coal eyes. "Mmm…Sas," Naruto whispered out as he ran his hands up Sasuke's back. "Mmm… fffffuck—" he moaned out when he shifted slightly and he felt the knot deep within him. Naruto squeezed his ass muscles, smiling proudly at hearing the alpha moan in pleasure at the sensation. Sasuke nuzzled his nose deeper into the omega's neck. Naruto giggled slightly at the sensation before his eyes fell upon Sasuke's neck to see a deep angry purple and red mark that looked suspiciously like rows of teeth. His inner fox purred loudly and vibrated through his skin, causing him to shiver with delight at seeing his mark on his mate. Naruto pulled Sasuke tighter and mumbled softly, "mine."

Haku lay on the floor in a room, a circle of pillows around him, a fluffy carpet beneath him as he giggled and blew raspberries at the one month old cubs that padded around, nipping at each other and yipping out gleeful noises. Two of the boys were showing fox features, with their pointy reddish coloured ears, black socks and their baby fluffy fur was turning into lighter red. Their eyes were black lined that highlighted their light coloured faces and making their eyes looking wide and adorable. One boy was still a fluffy black, his baby fur had not changed colour, his ears pointed up and fluffy tail, the spitting image of his father. The three boys pounced about, yipping and bowling about on each other, at times turning to Haku and rushing into him, causing Haku to laugh out loud.
A smaller black ball of fluffy fur watched the lot out of the way. She eyed her brother's antics and huffed out every now and then. Haku tried to coax her over but the little girl snubbed her nose up at every attempt.
The door to the room opened and all the boys yipped with glee as Naruto and Sasuke walked in. "My babies!" Naruto cried out with glee as he dropped to the floor, sitting only for a second before he was bowled over by three rambunctious pups. With yips and tongues lashing out, Naruto laughed as he hugged and rubbed his sons.
Sasuke gave a smile to the group of wild ones on the floor. Naruto rolling about laughing as the pups tackled him with licks and nips. 'The boys are just like their momma,' he thought to himself as he looked over to find his little girl, wagging her tail, while she still sat proud and tall. Sasuke scooped her up, cradling her like a large baby and snuggling into her thick fur. "Hello my princess, how are you today?" Sasuke purred out as he rubbed his cheek against her neck and cheek. She responded by placing a paw on either side of Sasuke's neck balancing her lower half on his arms, giving him a couple licks, rubbed her cheek on his before resting her head on his shoulder and letting out a deep sigh of contentment. Sasuke chuckled out deeply as he rubbed behind his girl's ears and went to sit down on one of the couches. As soon as he sat, three mounds of fur pounced upon him, covering him up instantly and all one could see was moving fur balls, yipping and jumping in place.
Naruto sat up on the floor laughing as he watched their sons pounce on their father. He quickly got up and found his daughter within the mound of boys and snuggled her in close. She rubbed her cheeks with Naruto before nestling down into his neck. "My perfect princess, how I've missed you," Naruto purred out while stroking the fine baby black fur. "How were they Haku?"
Haku had moved himself up to a sitting chair, his smile wide as he rubbed his swollen belly. "They were fine Naruto-kun. Though the boys were a little rambunctious to get to sleep last night, they were fine. They love to rough and tumble with Kiba though. I think they had him pinned a few times yesterday," Haku chuckled.
The door opened again and Jugo held the door as Itachi glided in heading straight for Haku. Haku lifted his arms up as Itachi plucked him from the chair with ease and swiveled with style and grace to sit himself down, settling Haku on his lap. Naruto just gawked at the two. 'Man…how does he do that?' Naruto just smiled and shook his head. Itachi nuzzled into Haku's neck and rubbed the swollen stomach lovingly.
"How did it go nii-san?" Sasuke asked as he managed to calm the three boys down and have them curl up around him. He rubbed at their tummies and ears, the lot of them suddenly drifting off to sleep. Naruto now gawked at Sasuke. 'How the hell does he do that?!' He was jealous that Sasuke could just put the cubs to sleep just like that. Sasuke gave a small smirk to Naruto as he waited for Itachi to answer.
"It went well after Naruto-kun left. What he said left a lasting impression on several of the elders. Tsunade-sama had a few share words as well." Itachi nodded a small smile and hummed out as he rubbed the swollen stomach of his mate. Haku had closed his eyes and seemed to be napping on Itachi, his head tucked under Itachi's chin. "The council had decided that they would only like to be informed on Naruto-kun's successes and have agreed to no longer allow what happened in the past to ever happen again. The kitsune whereabouts will be not recorded and only information on the existence will be recorded by Tsunade-sama and Shizune-chan for educational purposes only, should Naruto-kun accept." Itachi nodded towards a blushing Naruto, who just smiled embarrassed and scratched the back of his neck. "Congratulations to you otouto, for completing your bond as well," he glanced quickly at Sasuke's neck and smirked as Sasuke blushed slightly, responding with a grunt. Naruto continued to cradle his daughter as she fell asleep in his arms and wandered to where Sasuke was sitting, surrounded by sleeping balls of fur.
Naruto managed to sit beside Sasuke, not disturbing the pups, "can't get rid of me now teme," he chuckled as he laid his head on Sasuke's shoulder.
Sasuke leaned his head onto Naruto's, "wouldn't dream of it dobe."
==/\/\==
Naruto walked through the moonlight meadow, his nose picking up all the scents of the dew in the night, the flowers that bloomed only at night and the salt on the breeze coming from the sea. He looked about, wondering what he was doing back at this meadow. The only times he felt he was brought here was for bad news and he shuddered at the thought of this being another one of those times. He followed the worn path he knew that would lead him to the tree.
As the tree came into view, he noted the tall broad figure standing a few feet away from the tree and appeared to be facing the moon. The hood was down already with red hair reflecting in the moonlight and the figure didn't turn as Naruto came behind him.
"What is it now Honshu," Naruto asked in a huff. He stopped to stand next to the figure, his arms crossed and a frown put on his face. Naruto wanted to express his dislike for being here once again. He glanced up briefly at the tall wolf's face to see a small smile donning the old wolf's muzzle. "If you are here to tell me once again that I'm dead, I'll kick your ass into the next decade you old fart!" Naruto spat out at the wolf.
The wolf chuckled deeply at Naruto's antics. "Nice to see you too Naruto," the wolf's large red eyes looked back at the blond with a twinkle of amusement. A giant wolf hand appeared and ruffled the blond locks. The blond sputtered out in surprise and tried to slap away the wolf hand and Honshu laughed a little more. "Come," Honshu spoke as he turned and walked.
"Hey! You can't boss me around!" Naruto stomped after him anyhow as they walked down a worn path through the tall grass and flowers. Both walked saying nothing for a few minutes until they came to an edge of a forest. "Hey, this is where you and I first met!" Naruto stepped forward and peered between the trees.
"Indeed," Honshu replied and he pushed Naruto forward, hard.
"Hey! What the—!" Naruto sputtered out as he caught his footing and stumbled forward. He managed to not fall flat on his face on the forest floor and stand up straight. "What the hell you ass—!" he yelled out but stopped when he heard a giggle. Looking to the side, he saw a woman, long flowing blond hair and wearing a sundress. Naruto's mouth hung open as he took in the woman. She smiled warmly and walked through the trees towards him, the moonlight flickering off her blond locks and fireflies flickered around her. "Are you—are you—" Naruto stuttered out as he stood frozen in his spot, his eyes watching the woman stop just before him.
She smiled a warm smile at him and brought her hand to his cheek. "Hello Naruto." Her voice was kind, soft and sounded like a melody of an angel. She looked over at Honshu, who stood several feet away. "Thank you Honshu-sama," she bowed towards him before turning back to a shocked Naruto. "Come Naruto, walk with me," she smiled, holding out her hand. Naruto rose his hand, noting it trembled slightly, but when he grasped her fingers, the heat calmed him instantly and they moved together into the trees, hand in hand.
They sat on the edge of a sparkling stream, moonlight sparkling upon the two of them and their laughter could be heard floating through the trees. Sasuke made his way around the various trees, following the sounds. He knew both those laughs and was eager to find them both. He broke through the brush to see the vision of what he could only describe as two angels. The way the moon reflected from their hair, made their skin glow lightly and the smiles from the two brought a sense of warmth within him. His heart thumped loudly as Naruto saw him and a grin instantly broke upon his face as he waved him over.
"Sasuke! Come! Come!" Naruto waved and called out. Sasuke stood before the two sitting individuals. Naruto held his hand out and Sasuke grabbed it, giving the omega a comforting squeeze. "This is—".
"Asuri-chan," Sasuke interrupted. "A pleasure to see you again," Sasuke bowed towards the blushing blond woman.
"Wait! How?" Naruto spit out quickly, jerking on Sasuke's hand a few times.
Sasuke chuckled. "You remember dobe? After the forest, where we *ahem*? How I asked you if you recalled Honshu?"
Naruto's eyes held dark black until he blushed and hid his eyes. How could he forget that time?! Asuri giggled lightly watching the two. Sasuke looked over at her again and gave her a soft smile. She waved her hand to the ground, inviting Sasuke to sit.
"I was hoping to see you both again with happiness and hope, instead of sadness and despair." She smiled at both of them. "I-We are so grateful that our meeting was under the happier of the two options. Thank you both." She bowed forward.
"We?" Naruto asked out as he scratched the back of his head. It was then another figure came into view from the forest. Naruto flicked his eyes towards the approaching figure. He was broad shouldered, tall and had marble smooth skin. His square jaw and almond shaped eyes showed his age, but his hair was coal black that matched his eyes perfectly. Naruto's jaw fell open again as he took in the beauty of the man that was coming towards them. His clothes were sharp, as he was dressed in a three piece outfit and Naruto practically felt his fox purring at the site. He was brought back to reality when Sasuke shouldered him and gave him a teasing frown. Naruto blushed fiercely at being caught and turned his head faking a cough.
Asuri's warm smile warmed the area and she held her hand up to the man who approached and he helped her to stand. Naruto and Sasuke followed suit and Honshu suddenly appeared beside the group. The man bowed low towards Naruto and Sasuke, "thank you for your valiant efforts. I am forever grateful to the both of you." He stood and pulled Asuri in closer to him, his eyes lovingly looking into hers.
"You—you're Indra-san right?!" Naruto exclaimed. He looked from Asuri to Indra, then to Honshu and back to the couple again.
Asuri giggled lightly and Indra chuckled along with her. "Pleasure to meet with you both," Indra gave another nod. "Asuri has spoken of both of your valiant efforts and achievements. Thanks to you both, I am sure your children, children's children and so on will be able to be protect themselves and others with the help of gaining knowledge and friends." He then planted a soft kiss on Asuri's temple.
"And I as well thank you both," Honshu finally spoke. "I admit that some of the decisions I had made regarding Asuri's ancestors may have been not the best choices." He then moved a clawed hand to the back of his neck, scratching at it with a shrug to his shoulders. Sasuke smirked at the familiar motion. "With the way things are moving forward, I foresee a bright and successful future." The giant wolf smiled at all of them.
Asuri moved from Indra and enveloped Naruto in a tight hug. "Thank you Naruto," she whispered. Naruto breathed in deep, inhaling the scent of Asuri, "and I thank you." Naruto responded and sniffled slightly.
Indra shook Sasuke's hand firmly with a smile. "Thank you Sasuke. May your family prosper and be successful." He gave a wink when Sasuke gave an approving nod. Asuri grabbed Sasuke and pulled him in for a hug. "Thank you too Sasuke," she whispered as Sasuke returned the warm hug.
Indra pulled Naruto in for a warm hug. "You are just as beautiful as her. Your children will be blessed," he whispered into Naruto's ear. He pulled back and smiled warmly at Naruto's blush.
Asuri and Indra wrapped up in each other's arms again as they stood and smiled warmly at Sasuke and Naruto. The small firefly lights buzzed around and began to encircle the pair as they began to fade. "Good luck with your children Naruto," Asuri called out as she faded. "Your newest editions will most likely be a handful and of course a blessing."
Naruto grinned and waved, "oh these pups are already quite the handful!"
"Oh, but the new ones will be even more!" Asuri giggled as she snuggled into Indra.
"Wait, what?!" Naruto called out. "New ones? Wait-what? Wait—Asuri-chan!" Naruto stretched out his hand while tripping over his words as a fading Asuri giggled into her hands. Indra then chuckled as he kissed her temple and the two locked eyes with Sasuke and Naruto once more before fading into the night with the sound of 'good luck' words on the breeze. Naruto had his hand still frozen in an outstretched manner to where nothing but fog was slowly dissipating.
"Naruto and Sasuke," Honshu spoke. "You both have bonded fully and are true destined mates. I sincerely hope that I will never meet you again until your timely passing. I bid thee farewell and good luck to you both." He bowed deeply before the lights began to circle around him and his body began to fade.
"Honshu-sama, it was an honour," Sasuke bowed low in response.
"Wait you!" Naruto shouted out. "What did she mean? New ones?!" Naruto waved his arms about and stepping towards the wolf.
Honshu chuckled when he glanced at Sasuke. "Is he always like this?" he raised a brow. Sasuke smirked a smile and just nodded his head, grabbing Naruto's hand and pulling him back into his embrace.
"Sasuke! What are you—" Naruto gave Sasuke a glare as he tripped back into Sasuke's arms. "Just you wait! Honshu! What did she mean? You just wait now you bastard! You owe me an explanation!" Naruto flustered out as he struggled to get out of Sasuke's grip.
A deep laugh erupted from the wolf's mouth, his head fell back and his sharp teeth glistened in the moonlight as he faded into nothing.
Sasuke hugged Naruto close as he continued to sputter out about the wolf. He placed a kiss on Naruto's ear and whispered, "let's go home dobe."
