Naruto and Irina didn't stay long within the Ota Dragon Corral and though this was for multiple reasons, mostly it was to ensure that none of the Dragons came after them when they had a potential meal taken from them.

As they were walking, Naruto noticed that they were heading in the direction of the Ota Clinic which as far as Naruto knew was ran by Irina's mentor. While they were doing this, Naruto decided that he wished to know when she had gotten over her fear of Dragons and as such he soon started to speak.

"Irina, it has been some time since we have last seen each other though I was quite surprised at seeing you within the Dragon Corral since you were so vehemently against it before." Naruto muttered out as the building he assumed they were heading to popped into view.

Upon hearing his words, a slight chuckle escaped the female which caused some confusion to stir within Naruto; more than he was already feeling. Though before he could ask her why she was laughing, Irina's voice came tumbling out around them. "We haven't seen each other in almost a year Naruto...many things have changed since then. I am no longer afraid of the creatures that our people use to defend both our village and ourselves especially since I have two Dragons of my own." Irina explained as they finally arrived in front of the clinic.

Though Naruto had originally went looking for Irina because she was the only medic that he trusted to watch over Kamatari during his pregnancy; Naruto now had another reason to try and get her to return to the Leaf Village with him. Naruto was about to start his recruitment speech when Irina suddenly entered the clinic and vanished behind its walls. Knowing that he couldn't leave without first getting her approval of his request, Naruto followed the other Dragon Sorcerer inside.

Once fully getting inside of the clinic, Naruto noticed that some things have changed within the building. The last time that he had been here, there had only been human patients though since he could spot some Dragons laying on the tables; Naruto assumed that Irina and her mentor must have started allowing Dragons inside.

Eventually, Irina made her way into what Naruto assumed to be her office and when he followed her inside; Irina turned towards him and started to speak. "Don't take this the wrong way Naruto and though I am quite grateful that you saved that Genju but what is the reason that you have followed me all the way to my office?" Irina inquired as she finally took the seat that was drifting behind her.

Naruto took a deep breath before responding to the friend that he had drifted away from in the last year. "Kamatari is pregnant and I was hoping that I could convince you to return with us to my home dimension to care for him during this time. You are the only person that I can trust to do so." Naruto explained as he took hold of the chair that was placed on the side of the desk that he was standing.

Kushina who was currently preoccupied with something her husband had left for her to do when he went off with Naruto to visit Kamatari's mother, was unaware that she was no longer alone outside of the Hokage Tower.

Just as Kushina was about to hammer the last of the spike into the ground, a voice broke out around her. "What are you doing..." the familiar voice of Tai called out though since his mother was currently lost in whatever thoughts were patrolling through her mind; she wasn't able to pick up on the familiarity of the voice as she swung out behind her with the hammer that she held within her hand.

Thankfully, Tai was far enough away from her that the hammer only hit air otherwise he would be the one experiencing what its like to be in a coma.

Once Kushina had finished the pivot that was caused when she swung the hammer, she was able to notice that Tai was the one who was speaking to her which immediately made her feel upset that she swung out without first looking who it was. "...Tai! I am so sorry...are you hurt?" Kushina cried out as he stampeded towards her son to check and see if he had any wounds on his body.

When nothing was found, a look of relief came to life upon her face. Though before Kushina was able to voice this relief, Tai started to speak once more. "I am fine mother though I would still like to know what it is that you are doing?" Tai inquired once more which he was hoping that he would receive an answer to this time around.

Knowing that both of her children had very little patience, most likely due to the fact that they were her children; Kushina was sure to answer Tai's question this time around. "Your father had asked me to set up a notice board where those who have jobs that either don't interest Ninja or those who can't afford a Ninja's services would still be able to get the job complete..." Kushina explained though before she was able to finish the entirety of her explanation; Tai interrupted her.

"...I am assuming that this is so Naruto and his team will be able to earn money without having to go through the Council?" Tai muttered out and though at first Kushina thought some of the resentment that Tai used to have towards his brother was showing once more, though this was quickly thrown away with the next words that came from him. "That is actually a good idea, especially since Naruto was on the verge of annihilating one of the Clans within the Village because they tried to get in the way of his plans." Tai finished.

With that, Tai took hold of the hammer that his mother was holding so he could finish placing the notice board in the ground and once the hammer was fully in his hand; Tai raised his hand to swing down.

"Its true that my family has made my life here difficult but how can I leave my mentor to take care of the clinic by himself..." Irina spoke out which gave Naruto slight hope that he would be able to get her to come back with him to the Leaf.

Naruto knew that all he had to do was get her mentor to tell Irina that it would be okay if she left though Naruto didn't know for sure if this was something he should do since he felt like it would be overstepping a line that he wasn't quite for sure existed.

Though before either Naruto or Irina were able to say another word, a figure made it known that they were listening in on what they were saying. "...Irina. You will always have a place within this clinic even after I am long gone from the world. But you shouldn't be placing your life on hold to ensure that mine doesn't take a turn for the worse." the voice of an elderly male called out which immediately caused Naruto and Irina to turn to the newcomer.

Over the years, Naruto had the pleasure of meeting the man that had trained Irina in the knowledge that would help ensure that no harm comes to Kamatari or his child during this pregnancy. Just like the first time that Naruto had met this man, he had an air of authority about him which had always comforted the blond Dragon Sorcerer.

As Naruto turned back to Irina, he could see that she was wanting to argue with her mentor though for some reason she didn't do so. "Very well Sir...I will take your advice and do as Naruto is suggesting." Irina whispered out as she fell back into her seat.

Though Naruto felt accomplished that he had been able to recruit Irina into the fold, he still felt sadness for her that she would be leaving the one person within the village that had always treated her kindly. Knowing that there was nothing he could really say, Naruto decided that for now it would be best to leave her to come to terms with what she had just agreed to on her own.

With that, Naruto made his way from Irina's office so he could head back to the palace and see how it had went with his Apprentice's Crystal insertion.
