Welcome to my Fanfiction!
Jiraiya of the Sannin walks at a brisk pace surprisingly. Normally he would be bantering with his student and his Company, But, Jiraiya is in a hurry to finish his next Icha Icha book. His series hasn't had another installment in close to two years, So Jiraiya has a notebook out as he storms up ideas, and the reason for his writing Hiatus is but three feet to his left.
Naruto has his arms behind his head his Burnt orange and black jumpsuit unchanged, the only notable difference in Narutos Attire is he has two Kunai pouches on his legs, he has a hip pouch on his lowerback which hold four scrolls which if you looked you could make out the tops of them sticking out of the pouch. His Black hetiate is cut shorter so it won't snag anything behind him and his Konohagakure plate sometimes catchs the Sun as he strolls. Naruto glances to his left at his other company as they all travel back to the hidden leaf.
Directly to Narutos left is Karin Uzumaki, she's sporting a button up long sleeved white shirt and black shorts. Her Otogakure headband was left at the destroyed Otogakure base. Beside Karin is another female.
The other female beside Karin has her eyes closed in thought, her Raven straight hair rippling in the wind, her hair travels to the mid of her back, two long bangs frame her face and stop at her jawline. She's wearing a black Kimono with a white undershirt which can be seen because the front of her Kimono is open in the chest area. She also as a Katana at her hip. Looking at the sheathed blade it doesn't look special, just a black Katana hilt and guard within a black Sheath, yes this female very much likes the color black.
Naruto himself spots the Konoha gates coming up and he let's out a happy sigh "We're almost home Ero-Sennin." Naruto hears Jiraiya scoff beside him
"Are you ever gonna stop calling me that brat?..." Naruto smiles toward Jiraiya who glances at him "Nope!" Jiraiya let's out an exaggerated sigh and puts his notebook away "I swear, You look just like Minato but you act like Kushina!" "Good! I'm glad Kaa-San told me she originally coined your nickname Ero-Sennin. And I'm gladder I picked it up! Someone has to remind everyone how much of a pervert and a menace to bathing houses you are!"
Jiraiya is about to retort when he notices the glare of both of their female companions. Jiraiya chuckles before looking away from Karin's pink glare and the other females charcoal like eyes drilling holes in his skull. Jiraiya is saved from further imbarassment as they approach the gates of Konoha.
Naruto spots the two Chuunin gate Guard and can't help his laugh "Man! Some things really never change! Uzimo, Kotetsu!" Said Chuunin guards both look up from their desk.
Uzimo squints his eyes for a second before Kotetsu grins shoving his partner "Naruto! Jiraiya-Sama, Welcome back to Konoha! Who are your lady friends?" Naruto is about to introduce his female companions before he thinks better of it "I-Eh, I think it's better if we See Baa-Chan before their identities get out. Sorry guys."
Uzimo and Kotetsu share a look reading eachothers minds 'Is this the same knucklehead from the Chuunin exams three years ago.' Uzimo clears his throat "Of course. Lady Hokage-Sama should be in her office. Head straight there with the foreigners before letting them anywhere else in the village."
Naruto nods in understanding "Understood. You two don't work to hard." Kotetsu rolls his eyes "Hardy har har. At least we've got job security, nobody else wants to guard the gate and do the paperwork for foreigners and when we're not doing this we Run errands for Hokage-Sama. Easy job easy life... Well unless we piss Hokage-Sama off... At least she heals any injury she causes ha ha." Kotetsu rubs the back of his head sheepishly before Uzimo shoves him "Who are you talking to dude?" "Huh?" Kotetsu opens his eyes and sure enough the group of four are gone.

Once alittle ways into the village Naruto makes two Shadow clones who both take off in separate directions. Jiraiya looks at his student curiously "What are they up to?"
Naruto holds up two fingers "Anko, and gotta clean my apartment up, I've been gone three years remember." "Do you really think Tsunade-Hime just let your apartment waste away? I'm sure she had somebody looking after it. So your gonna start studying the seal already?"
Naruto nods as they walk into the Hokage tower "Yes. We already know I can remove the newer seal but Anko's may differ, I want that thing off of her. She doesn't deserve the bullshit Orochimaru has put her through."
Jiraiya leads his student and the two females up the stairs "I thought you only met her like twice." Jiraiya can't see Naruto but he knows he's nodding behind him "You're right, but we both know I'm a good judge of character." Jiraiya chuckles "I can't deny that. You're just like Minato but also different, you both have unique Charisma and a ability to read others." Their conversation came to a stop as Jiraiya knocks on the Hokage's office door. Jiraiya hears a crisp female voice "Enter"
Jiraiya opens the door and plasters a huge smile on his face as Tsunades hazel eyes land on him "We're back Hime!" Tsunade smiles as she spots Naruto behind Jiraiya
Naruto grins as Tsunade "Mission accomplished! We've got some things to discuss." Narutos sharp tone makes Tsunades eyes widen and then she spots the two females that follow Naruto through the door before Karin closes it behind her.
The room is silent as Naruto waits for Tsunade to ask the qeustions he knows she's going to have. His intuition proves correct when Tsunade steeples her fingers and speaks up "Who's your lady friends Naruto?"
Naruto looks at both of the ladies before jerking his thumb toward Karin "This is Karin Uzumaki, former member of Otogakure. She can be trusted. She's defecting to Konoha. You two can talk about that later."
Here Naruto pauses looking at his other female companion, he sighs loudly and Jiraiya grins "Introduce yourself." The Raven haired female bows deeply before raising her head "Hai, I am Setsuna Uchiha, Naruto-Sama's faithful slave." Naruto groans loudly.
Tsunades eyes sharpen at the mention of slave "Explain." Naruto nods but Jiraiya beats him to it "She's from NadeShiko." Tsunade frowns "The Konoichi village that sends it's females out until they find a male who can defeat them in battle?" Jiraiya's grin never fades "The very one. Setsuna here found Naruto during part of our trip. As you can get Naruto beat her. Although she almost got him from the shock of seeing her Sharingan. Anyways long story short Naruto refused to marry her so she made a blood oath."
Tsunades breath hitched Blood oaths are never to be taken lightly, those who break them forfeit their life. "She swore to serve Naruto until she drew her last breath as his slave."
Naruto sighs loudly before lightly glaring at the female who's sporting a small smile "All of that without my consent!" Setsuna bows to Naruto "apologies Naruto-Sama I await any punishment you deem appropriate." Naruto smacks his face grumbling.
Jiraiya can't help his perverse giggle at Setsuna's demeanor and word choice. Tsunade growls at Jiraiya seeing his perverse mind at work "I swear to Kami-Sama Jiraiya if you don't stop that I'll beat you worse than that time I caught you peeping!" Jiraiya makes a conciouss effort to compose himself at such a threat and mock salutes "Yes Mam!"
Tsunade rolls her eyes before looking back at Naruto "Ok Naruto anything you wanna talk about? If not you can show your lady friends around while I talk with Jiraiya." Naruto frowns as a rough topic broachs his mind.
"Yes there is one more thing... Itachi Uchiha is coming back to the village and the truth of the Uchiha Massacre will be made public and I need a favor-"
"Naruto" Naruto stops talking at Tsunades crisp tone and they lock eye's "I can't let that happen-"
Tsunade Spots out of the corner of her eye Jiraiya's worried look a moment to late. In the first time in history Tsunades desk is snapped in half by someone who's not her as Naruto slams his fist into it while fixing her with a cold glare. Tsunades breath hitches and her mouth hangs open, she briefly registers Setsuna has drawn her Katana and is holding it's blood red blade out behind Naruto blocking her Anbu from subduing him, she also briefly sees Karin with two Chakra chains coming out of her hands, and Jiraiya, well he's just standing stock still letting everything play out.
Her eyes then flick back to Narutos hard glare and time begins to flow again for her "No, you don't understand Tsunade. Itachi is going to be here in two days, and the truth will be released OR I am leaving this village. Do you understand?"
Tsunades sits stock still her hands resting on her lap adventually she wispers out "Naruto... What happened to you?" Narutos features soften "I grew up, and I realized there's more to the world than my dreams. Itachi doesn't deserve what happened to him and we're gonna make it right, or I am leaving. Trust me when I say, Nobody in this village can stop me."
Jiraiya looks sidelong at his student before looking at Tsunade almost pleadingly "Listen to him Hime..." Tsunades eyes flicker to her teammate and she registers how serious he is which in itself means she should really listen. Tsunade looks down at her lap for several seconds figuring out how this is gonna play out and the headache Danzo and the elders are gonna cause her. Adventually she pushed those thoughts out of her mind leaving one behind 'Naruto is right. That boy didn't deserve what this village turned him into' With those thoughts Tsunades let out a long sigh.
"Ok, Ok Naruto." Naruto smiles at Tsunade "I knew you'd see reason. Thank you." Tsunade nods more to herself than anything. She takes notice of her two Anbu guards still at the ready only blocked by a pissed off looking Uchiha holding a sword to their throats "Neko, Usagi, Dismissed."
Both Anbu take a big step back before disappearing via Shunshin. Setsuna smirks before sheathing her Katana. Tsunade levels her eyes on Naruto "Ok, as for that favor. Itachi's got a problem, even I couldn't fix it and I'm decent at medical Ninjutsu.. I think it's a Auto-Immune disorder but I couldn't figure out anything else, and Karin couldn't fix it either and she's better than me... If anyone can cure him it's you. So I'm asking you, please, help my friend and the man this village is indebted to."
Tsunade knows Naruto is a very passionate person, Hell he dragged her back to the village, but seeing the look in his eyes as he pleads for her to help someone he considers a friend, there was only one answer she could give him "I'll do whatever I can Naruto."
Naruto gives Tsunade a dazzling smile that if she was about fifty years younger would of made her heart flutter. Tsunade glances down at her snapped desk her eyes sharpining "You're paying for this brat."
Naruto rubs the back of his head "My bad, good thing I'm pretty rich now huh." Tsunade raises an eyebrow "What do you mean?"
Naruto smirks at Tsunade "Exactly that. I didn't just train while I was away. Not to mention I have access to my parents savings now. Don't even start on how I know this and that please. Alot has changed Baa-Chan. Now if you don't mind I'd like to show Karin-nee and Setsuna-Chan around the village."
Tsunade Stares at Naruto for several long seconds not believing his personally has matured and changed so much, adventually she adverts her eyes locking them on Jiraiya "We've got alot to talk about Jiraiya, I want answers. Naruto, Karin, Setsuna Dismissed."
Naruto mock salutes before opening the door for Karin and Setsuna. Once the door clicks shut it burst back open to reveal Shizune "Tsunade-Sama! Oh, oh my another desk? I'll fetch another, I see you already know about Naruto being back. Toodles" Shizune quickly makes a exit. leaving Tsunade with Jiraiya. "Start explaining Jiraiya."
Jiraiya rubs the back of his head before leaning against Tsunades window "He grew up, alot. He's really like Minato when it comes to training you know. Like a freaking sponge he picked up everything I taught him and trained himself to the ground, copious amounts of Shadow clones helped."
Tsunade nods "Where would you rank all of his skills?" Jiraiya chuckles laying his hands against his thighs "Well, with un-augmented taijutsu he can keep up with me. His Ninjutsu is deadly, Like seriously Deadly, His Genjutsu, well he's not that good at casting anything but he can break most. His Sealing, well he's better than me. He figured out how to break Orochimarus Curse Seal of heaven, with the help of Karin's notes on it."
Tsunade reachs into her broken desk drawer and pulls out a bottle of Sake "Damn, the brats really that good?" Jiraiya shakes his head with a far away look "Probably better, I'm not exaggerating Tsunade-Hime, the kids deadly. He also knows how to be a real Shinobi now. You know it was hard getting him to get used to killing and I hated every part of that training..."
Tsunade takes three big swigs of the Sake bottle before passing it to Jiraiya who takes his own drink. Tsunade looks at the floor lost in her thoughts of her own childhood and first kill before she focuses her mind on the present "What about the Uchiha girl?"
Jiraiya grins, not his perverted grin but one of pure amusement "Don't let Naruto fool you, he loves that girl just as much as she loves him. I can't count how many nights Those two have stayed up talking about each other's lives, and no matter what, Don't underestimate that girl, she's fiercely protective of Naruto and that blade of hers is special."
Tsunade is mildly amused of the thought of Naruto being in love "What's special about the blade?" Jiraiya chuckles "Naruto made it for her after he broke her old one. She named it Serpent. It's imbued with seals which when activated coats the blade in a deadly poison, one cut and it freezes up all your nerves and puts you in excruciating pain before you die minutes later."
Tsunade is stunned "and Naruto made it!?" Jiraiya shrugs "Sorta, Karin helped with the poison. Don't worry Naruto made it clear she is not to use the poison on any Konoha Shinobi and she's not to kill anyone from Konoha."
Tsunade raises an eyebrow "Would she have?" Jiraiya nods grimly "Without Naruto telling her No? Most definitely. All it would take is for Sakura to look at him the wrong way and she would of scewered her. She knows all about her abusive tendencies toward Naruto."
"Hmm, What about Karin? What's her plan?" "She wants to be part of Konoha's R and D department, and she wants to work in the hospital, you'll have to work it out with her, she's a really bright girl really, just don't make her choose between family and this village. She'll side with Naruto everytime."
Tsunade groans "That brats causing me so much paperwork." Jiraiya grins at Tsunade "You know you missed him" Jiraiya catches Tsunades small smile and her lack of protest.

Meanwhile Naruto clone numbro Uno found Konoha's Snake Mistress hanging out with Konoha's Genjutsu Queen. Both ladies are sitting outside of a qaunt looking tea house.
The clone approaches the two ladies, Anko recognizes him instantly "If it isn't the brat from the Chuunin Exams. How was your trip kid?" Anko leans on the table showing Naruto her Exuberant tentiveness
"it was Well Anko. It's good to see you both. But I really wanna get to the point and I'm sure you'll like the reason I'm here." Anko grins at Kurenai before cocking her head sideways at Naruto "Oh?"
"Anko, I know how to remove Orochimarus perfected Curse mark." Anko's eyes widen and she let's out a gasp, instinctly her hand goes up to her neck "Y-you can really remove it?"
Naruto nods "Yes but yours may differ from the perfected version if you don't mind I wanna see it, either way I'm confident I will get that Bastards Mark off of you."
Anko begins to tear up and scrambles to take her coat off "H-here here anythi-" "whoa, Anko you don't need to take your coat off, please calm down"
Anko looks at Naruto expectantly "C-Calm down? I, I, Ok... It's just" Naruto walks over to Anko placing his hand on her shoulder "I know, We have a similar past, trust me I know." Meanwhile Kurenai is eyeing the blonde curiously praying the blonde isn't playing a cruel joke on Anko. Because if he is.. he's dead, Konoha Shinobi or not.
Naruto leans over Anko and She leans over so he has a better view of the seal in the sunlight. Narutos sharp eyes trace every line of the small seal "hm, the matrix is mostly the same, concepts the same, the only big difference is this isn't the upgraded version. So it'll actually be easier to remove. Anko do you know where I live?"
Anko quickly nods as Naruto backs up "Good, please come by my house tomorrow morning and I'll get that nasty peace of work off ya. Cya Anko, Kurenai." The Naruto clone Poof's away.
Anko looks at Kurenai excitedly "Did you hear that Nai-Chan!?" Anko sqeals like a schoolgirl her excitement shown plain as day. Kurenai eyes her amusedly for a second before getting serious "Anko, be realistic Jiraiya-Sama couldn't remove that thing what makes you think Naruto can?"
Anko's smile falters for but a second before returning full force "That brats alot of things but he's honest to the T. I'm putting my trust in him please just be happy for me Nai-Chan?" Kurenai looks at her long time best friend softly before nodding, she reaches over and grab Anko's hand with a smile "Ok Anko-Chan"
"Hey girls." Hana Inuzuka takes a seat beside Kurenai and soon Yugao sits beside Anko with a huff. All three Ladies eye their purple haired friends "Wassup Yugi?"
Anko bumps the off duty Anbu. Yugao scowls "nothing, just some wannabe swordswoman caught me off guard earlier!" Hana glances at Anko and Kurenai "Oh? Do tell." Yugao launches into the meeting between Naruto and the Hokage.

Meanwhile Naruto is leading his Cousin and Slave around Konoha showing them the sights, he just finished with Team 7's old training ground before rubbing the back of his head "Hey are you two hungry? I know the perfect place."
Karin looks at Setsuna with a shrug "I could eat." Setsuna smiles at Naruto "I concur with Karin Master."
Naruto scowls at Setsuna "You Really have to stop calling me that" Setsuna just tilts her head sideways cutely. Naruto adverts his eyed not falling for her trap, Narutos figured out Setsuna pulls off the cute and innocent look WAY to well. He rolls his eyes "Whatever, Come on, To Ichiraku's!"
Naruto leads the two ladies across the village to his favorite ramen stand. He pushes the flap open with a grin when he spots Ayame.
"Ayame-NeeChan, Old Man! Fire up the grill because Naruto Uzumaki is back in town!" Ayame whirls around and lunges at Naruto as Karin giggles "Otouto!" Ayame wraps Naruto in a bear hug "Ole I missed you so much little brother! You have to tell me all about your trip sometime! And who are your friends?"
Naruto took his time introducing both Karin and Setsuna, he wisely didn't let Setsuna introduce herself this time. Naruto just finishes his sixth bowl and is regailing Ayame and Teuchi with a story about his time in Sunagakure when the flap to the stand open and a tall Jounin walks in.
Naruto glances and he grins instantly "Kakashi-Sensei. It's good to see you." Kakashi eye smiles at Naruto "Yo, it has been awhile Naruto. How have you been?" Naruto rubs the back of his head, a social tick he'll probably never shake "I've been surprisingly good. Some rough patches here and and there but things have been going pretty smoothly."
Kakashi sits down and crosses his arms on the counter "That's good. I just came by to let you know Hokage-Sama wants to see you in the hour. Oh, and she'll see Karin here about her becoming a part of Konoha also."
Naruto quickly nods and Karin's face is one of excitement. "Ok Kakashi-Sensei. By the way, Ero-Sennin wanted me to let you know, he's almost done with Icha Icha: Assassin's. His newest book, he said he should be finished within the next day or so and he'll let you have the first copy."
The Cycloptic Jounin's eye shines with anticipation "Oh, well thank you for letting me know Naruto. I'll see you later." Kakashi quickly left Naruto and his Entourage alone. Naruto hums lightly before looking over at Setsuna "You like to read Ero-Sennins books, think it'll be any good?" Setsuna smirks as she looks up, her eyes seem to sparkle as she thinks of Jiraiya's Literotica "Most definitely Master. We should read it to-" "Not happening."
XxX
After eating Naruto, Setsuna, and Karin wonder the village alittle bit, that's how he runs into one Konohamaru and his Gennin teammates
"Boss!" Naruto turns and spots Konohamaru running toward him followed by Moegi and Udon. Konohamaru crashes into Narutos waist hugging him. Naruto chuckles while patting His shoulder "I missed you too Saru." Konohamaru backs up looking at Naruto strangely "Saru?" Naruto shrugs "What? It's easy to say."
It takes Naruto Abit but he Adventually shakes Konohamaru after leaving his team a clone to teach them a trick or two. Now he's back in Tsunades office to hear what she has to say. Surprisingly she already has a new desk which she's resting her elbows on.
"Alright Naruto. By Jiraiya's account you're a Jounin level Shinobi. That being said, should you accept I'm entering you in Konoha's next Jounin exams." Naruto grins at Tsunade "I'm gonna Ace the exams Believe it!" Tsunade smiles at her surrogate grandson "You better. Some of your classmates are also going to be taking the exams." "Really?"
A sharp couple of knocks on the door interrupt whatever Tsunade was going to say "Enter."
Sakura walks into Tsunades Office followed by Tenten and Lee. Sakura's eyes instantly glew onto her teammate "Naruto? You're back?"
Naruto spins around at the sound of his old teammates voice. He grins at Sakura "Haha yep! It's good to be back to. Man I missed this place." Sakura returns her teammates smile "We should catch up later. Lady Tsunade, you requested our presence?" Naruto turns back around to face Tsunade.
Tsunade steeples her fingers as she eyes her Shinobi "Yes, Lee, Tenten, Sakura, Naruto all of you have expressed interest in the Jounin Exams, I called all of you here to tell you, I approve, I think you all have what it takes, the exams are in three days, Report to Warehouse 66 at 9am in the morning."
Lee cheers and Tenten tries to calm him down. Meanwhile Sakura is gaping at her Sensei "Narutos being aloud to skip a rank!?" Naruto winces having forgotten how loud his teammate can be.
Tsunade nods at her student "Yes. Due to special circumstances Naruto is being aloud to skip Chuunin. Tenten, Lee, Dismissed." Lee saluted while Tenten bows before the Duo leave quickly.
Tsunade waits for them to leave before eyeing Karin "Karin Uzumaki, Tell me in your words what your plans are in Konoha."
Karin straightens up her stance "Mam. I want to work in Konoha's Research and development department, I believe my creativity and IQ will be of use. I would also like to work part time in Konoha's hospital due to my prowess with medical Ninjutsu. Also, in Konoha's time of need I am willing to fight as a Shinobi, my chakra chains are very deadly but I prefer to avoid field work if all possible Mam."
Tsunade mulls over Karin's words for several seconds. "I don't want to crowd you in at Narutos place, so come stay at the Senju compound until you're settled. Tomorrow we'll start getting your paperwork on the way."
Karin bows to Tsunade "Hai! Thank you." Tsunade smiles at the teenager, before turning her eyes to Setsuna. "Your turn."
Setsuna gives Tsunade a sweet smile while Naruto grumbles waiting for whatever she's going to say. "I go wherever Naruto-Sama goes, I am his faithful slave-" "WHAT!"
Sakura lunges toward Naruto determined to ring his neck. Before she can register what's happened Tsunade had jumped over her desk and had pushed her chest lightly, of course lightly for her still pushed Sakura all the way to the back wall of the office. Sakura looks at her teacher in confusion until her eyes widen seeing Setsuna had drawn her sword and had it near the spot where Tsunades hand was still leangering.
Tsunade clears her throat "Sakura please refrain from attacking Naruto, Setsuna may kill you." Naruto gives Setsuna a stern look "No, she won't."
Setsuna sheaths her sword "Hai Hai, as master said, I would of only drew blood, pinky would of survived... If just barely."
Sakura gulps her mind feeling alittle dizzy at her near death experience 'Whats up with that crazy bitch CHA!'
Tsunade herself straightens up before returning to her desk "please continue Setsuna."
Setsuna returns to her cheeful demeanor "Hai, I am his Faithful slave, don't even consider me a citizen Lady Tsunade I am but his property."
Naruto grumbles before looking at Tsunade "Make her a citizen of Konoha Baa-Chan, I'll make her sign any paperwork she needs to." "Ah, Master is so cruel." Naruto sweatdrops at how softly and nonchalantly she can say that.
Tsunade chuckles at the girls antics "She has a point Naruto, Slavery is barbaric but not illegal, technically she is your property." Naruto sighs loudly "But I don't want a slave! Setsuna-Chan! There's got to be an alternative to this blood Oath thing..."
Setsuna keeps her soft smile on her face but it's Tsunade that answers "I'm sorry Naruto there's not. Blood Oaths aren't meant to ever be broken. Whomever makes one binds themselves to the Shinigami, so if they break it he can instantly harvest their soul."
Naruto nods solemnly. Sakura just watches in the background, doing her best to get the jist of what's going on. Naruto adventually chuckles before looking at Setsuna softly "Maybe I should of just married you eh Suna-Chan?"
Setsuna nods at Naruto "Maybe that would of been best Master. But I have to admit I rather like the relationship we currently have. It's, Unique." Naruto chuckles "You could say that again."
Sakura adventually recovers enough to speak, she walks up behind Setsuna "Excuse me, Setsuna-San?" Both Setsuna and Naruto turn toward Sakura.
"I would like to start over between us, I hope we can be friends. My name's Sakura Haruno." Sakura sticks out her hand. Naruto looks at Setsuna half geussing what her reactions going to be based on her past interactions with other females she shown obvious dislike towards.
Setsuna looks down at Sakura's hand before looking Sakura in the eyes "I have no intention of ever being your friend Haruno-San, also, If you ever attempt to harm my master again I will hurt you." Setsuna glares at Sakura while showing her her three tomoe Sharingan.
Sakura gasp "The Sharingan! B-b-but I thought, You must be related to Sasuke-Kun!" Setsuna snears having heard stories of her master's other teammate "I surely hope our blood is very far apart. I do not wish to be considered anything like that mongrel."
Sakura gapes at the girl infront of her for a solid second before she starts shaking "H-How dare you!" "Sakura enough."
Sakura ignores Tsunade as she looks at Naruto "You're just gonna let her talk about our teammate like that!?" Naruto shrugs in a uncarring manner "She can say and think whatever she wants. The only thing you need to worry about is the fact I'm gonna be bringing Sasuke home as soon as we figure out where Orochimaru is."
Sakura can't believe her teammate is putting up with this girl bad mouthing their teammate. Her face is taking on several shades of red as her Anger rises. "Naruto, Take your girlfriend and go before Sakura blows a fuze. Karin, stick around I'll have Shizune show you to the Senju compound in abit"
Naruto nods to Tsunade before jumping out of her window Setsuna following close behind. Tsunade sighs "That girl is something."
Karin sweatdrops "You don't know the half of it. You should of met her before she lost to Naruto, she was all fire and fury, now she just acts like a tamed kitten."
Tsunade looks at Karin strangely "That's a very strange and specific anology." Karin shrugs "I call'm how I see'm. Besides you haven't known her as long as I have."
Tsunade raises her eyebrow "Do go on." Karin Snickers before gulping "Eh, trust me you'll see her habits and tendencies over time, I'd rather not tell you, she gets rather heated and sometimes violent if Naruto-Nii isn't around to yank her leash back into obedience." "Again with the strangely specific anologies."
XxX
Meanwhile Naruto and Setsuna make their way into Narutos apartment, Narutos clone had dispelled earlier letting him know minimum cleaning had to of been done and the refrigator had to be refilled, both task the clone completed.
Naruto sits on his couch and Setsuna sits beside him in a very formal manner. "First day back, Hmm, got alittle bit done. What do you think?"
"I think today was very amusing to say the least. I look forward to making friends when I am not servicing you Master."
Naruto blush's "You make everything sound dirty on purpose don't you." Naruto isn't looking at her but he can sense her damnable smirk.
"I don't know what you mean Master. Maybe it is just you thinking dirty thoughts." Naruto blushes again before shaking his head "No no, I know for a fact you try to tease me."
Naruto look at her and sure enough her small cute yet annoying smile is on her face "Think as you wish my Master." Naruto Sighs before leaning back on his couch, he notices Setsuna's formal way of sitting and knows she's waiting for his command "at ease."
In a instant Setsuna cuddles up against Narutos chest with her hands against his stomach, Narutos eye twitches "This isn't exactly what I meant Y'know." "Hmm?"
Naruto smiles knowing she's trying the cute and innocent thing she does to mess with him "sometimes I can't tell if I love you or hate you."
Setsuna slowly raises her head So her mouths near the nape of his neck and he can feel her soft breath "Maybe it's both, Master." "I know what you're doing, stop."
Setsuna touches her button like nose to Narutos neck sending a tingle through his body "Stop what? I'm just trying to get comfortable."
Naruto closes his eyes as he thinks over all the nights he's spent awake with Setsuna getting to know her, it was a challenge getting information out of her, it was even harder getting her to ask him qeustions with her submissive personality. Naruto Remembers hearing about her tragic past, of war, and bloodshed, loss, depression and loneliness. He knows exactly why she chose to cling to him so tightly, because in the end, he is her anchor. The one that saved her from herself and the haunted past.
Setsuna is sometimes subtly flirtatious and seductive, but Naruto knows, he could rebuff her advances forever and she'd still be happy, because She knows, Naruto loves her, he's never told her directly but she's never asked, they have a closeness born in sublety. Setsuna outwardly admits she's completely in love with Naruto, Naruto hasn't admitted it yet, but she knows she's wearing him down.
Naruto leans his head against Setsuna's. She leans back so their foreheads are touching, Setsuna looks up looking Naruto in the eyes, into the twin oceans that are Narutos eyes she gets lost at sea. Naruto feels her breath on his lips and the slight hitch when his eyes shift "Setsuna." "Y-yes Master?"
Naruto smiles ever so lightly before he shift and slowly starts to stand, Naruto hears Setsuna let out a disappointed little "mew..." He chuckles at her obsession with making cat noises when disappointed "I'm gonna go shower. Then I'm going to bed." "Can I help?"
Naruto pauses on his way to the bathroom, he looks over his shoulder "I'm not ready Setsuna... Just put up with me for alittle longer... Once I'm done in the shower you can take your own shower then we're heading to bed."
AN: Yo, that's it for Chapter Uno! First chapters are always the hardest to write and they serve for setting the flow of a story. Hope you liked it, I put alot of thought in the OC. that last scene served acouple of purposes and I was trying my hand at light sexual tension. Yeah Narutos not ready for Setsuna's sexual advances.
Yo! I'm coming back to this chapter to add a note. Man reading my later chapters compared to these first ones. You guys are in for some great stuff!
