Love Letter
(Sand village, Kazekage's office)
7/17
To whom it may concern:
From Konohagakure no Hokage
I bring you good tidings. We have found Gaara, Kazekage of Sand. I wish to inform you that he is safe and relatively healthy. He was captured by the organization, Akaktsuki, and two missing nins rescued him, killing his captor, Uchiha Itachi. These rescuers have been granted freedom from their crimes for these deeds. Please send an envoy to ensure the peace and safety of our villages and your Kazekage. Thank you.
Tsunade
"We will leave right away," Kankuro replied to his former teacher, whom in Gaara's absence has acted as Kazekage, after he read the letter. His teacher nodded, granting him admission to act as envoy to his brother. Kankuro nodded back and left swiftly to inform his sister of the good news. 'She will finally stop crying,' he thought in slight annoyance.
(Konoha- Hokage's office; 7/18)
"Your mission is to greet the visitors from Sand at the gate and guide them here so I may guide them to Gaara's chamber. Then you are to guide them anywhere they wish, including their chambers for the night. Oh, and take Kiara and Miriana with you. I'm sure that they would like to meet Gaara's rescuers." Tsunade ordered team 7, dismissing them with a flick of the wrist.
"It seems that the only thing we are doing lately is acting as tour guides," Naruto murmured softly so only Sasuke, standing next to him, could hear. Sasuke chuckled to himself softly as they left the Hokage's office to retrieve the two girls.
"Why do we always have to take those two everywhere with us?" Sakura groaned frustrated. Naruto sneered at her.
"What do you mean? We only brought them to Konoha and showed them around. Surely you aren't jealous because they made you pay twenty bucks to see a picture of us kissing for ten seconds," Naruto smiled evilly.
"What do you mean jealous! It was a rip off! You couldn't even see half of Sasuke's face!... Hey Ino!" Sakura realized she was confirming his hunch and instead changed the direction of the conversation when she saw Ino's team come towards them from the other direction. Sasuke rolled his eyes at her idiocy, but followed when Naruto pulled him to go say hello to Shikamaru.
"Hi Shika! Chouji!" Naruto yelled animatedly. Sasuke waved and they waved back in reply.
"Where are you guys headed?" Shikamaru asked when they got close enough to talk without yelling.
"To find Kiara and Miriana so we can take them with us to meet the envoy from Sand," Naruto replied purring happily when Sasuke hugged him to calm him down.
"So that's how you calm him down enough to speak normally. We should have shoved him into your arms years ago," Shikamaru replied showing that he didn't mind their closeness. Chouji nodded before looking over at the girls walking toward them. Naruto blew him a raspberry not noticing Sasuke's nod and sigh.
"We have decided that you guys are coming with us so we can give the envoy a big welcoming party!" Sakura said happy that she wouldn't have to be alone with Sasuke and Naruto and the two girls she couldn't stand because of how much they seemed to know about everything.
"Yeah, I haven't met them yet and I want to see if they are everything that everyone has been talking about! Did they really ki-" Sakura put her hand over her friend's mouth to stop her words at the flash of anger and pain that showed in Sasuke's features.
"Um… let's get going!" Sakura said dragging Ino off so she could yell at her and leave Naruto to sooth Sasuke. Shikamaru and Chouji followed the girls knowingly.
"Sasuke…" Naruto said smoothing his hair out of his face worry covering his features. Sasuke smirked at Naruto caring actions.
"I'm fine, love. Let's go. We don't want to be late or Temari might just rip us a new one," Sasuke replied smiling and kissing Naruto's cheek before pulling him towards the others quickly.
"How do you know it's them?" Naruto asked hoping he kept his concern out of his voice.
"Who else would come to visit and escort Gaara but his siblings?" Sasuke replied pulling him faster to completely catch up with the others outside Kiara and Miriana's building.
(Konoha front gate)
"I guess you were right," Naruto said to Sasuke when he caught sight of the two Sand nins farther away than anyone else could see. Sasuke smirked and kissed Naruto forehead when he pouted.
"Right about what?" Sakura asked close enough to have heard Naruto's comment.
"It's Temari and Kankuro," Naruto growled annoyed that his love was right again.
"How do you know? I don't see anybody coming," Ino replied haughtily.
"I can see them," Naruto replied still glaring at Sasuke.
"How-" Ino started but was cut off by Miriana.
"Cant you feel their chakra coming this way quickly, their not even trying to hide it. I don't have Naruto's eyes, so I can't see them but I can feel them and if I had felt them before I would know who it was." Ino scowled at her along with Sakura. They both turned to huddle together and whisper annoyed.
"I can hear what you're whispering as well," Miriana said when they had said something rude about her and Kiara's photo album. The younger scowled again and glared but stop whispering.
"Women…" Shikamaru sighed staring up at the clouds drifting across the sky.
"Fine but I will get revenge," Naruto said loud enough for everyone to hear after his whispering with Sasuke was over. All of the girls glared at him for ruining the almost silence.
"Well, hello-" Kakashi started when he came upon his team at the gate he was to guard in place of his friend before he was cut off by the two young girls.
"SHUT UP!"
(Later- Gaara's recovery chamber)
"What happened to you Gaara?" Temari asked feeling warm tears flow down her cheeks as soon as everyone else but her and her brothers left the room. Gaara continued to stare at the wall with a far-away look.
