A/N - Okey dokey. The RNG landed on the sequel for Guardians of Yokai Academy, sooo here it is!
Anyways, this chapter is rather short when compared to my usual chapter length. I was having the hardest damn time focusing. I blame my damn ADHD. Still, I hope you like this chapter.
Anywho, a bunch of different things happen in this first chapter. Sooo look forward to it!
Chapter 1 – Homecoming
Tsunade took the time to look over each of the monster girls that had returned home with her favorite blonde knucklehead. "You'll have to introduce me to your lovely girlfriends later. I hate to put you to work so soon after you have returned, but a member of the Akatsuki has come here seeking refuge. Her name is Konan and she has insisted that she only speak with you. I don't trust Danzo not to pull something soon, so I need you to talk to her NOW. Get what information you can from her and, if you feel like it, offer her asylum in your home. The seals are still holding strong, so she'll be safest there."
"Sounds like a plan to me. Hopefully Konan will give us the information we need to help us put an end to Akatsuki once and for all. Tell me, is she being held in T&I? Or is she someplace else? I'd like to talk to her as soon as possible. Preferably before Danzo tries to pull something." Naruto replied.
"Ibiki and Anko are watching over her at the moment. Still, I think you should hurry. Before you go though, mind making a couple of shadow clones? I'd like to get to know your new friends, and you need to key them into the seal around your estate so they can come and go freely." Tsunade suggested.
Naruto nodded and formed three shadow clones, just to be safe. Afterwards, he bid everyone goodbye before he hurried off to go and see Konan. Once he was gone, Tsunade looked at the girls in the office and asked, "Sooo, you're all Yokai, I assume?" Seeing them nod, the blonde smirked and asked, "So are you all romantically involved with Naruto-kun?"
Mizore was the one to speak up for the group. "Not all of us, Hokage-sama. Tamao and I are or planning to be with Gaara-kun. He's planning to transfer here from Sunagakure to be with us." She explained.
Tsunade frowned slightly and asked, "Is there a reason you were unable to join Gaara in Suna?"
Tamao nodded at this and said, "We wouldn't do well in the desert. Mizore-chan is a yuki-onna and I'm a mermaid. We'd most likely die if we tried to live in Suna with Gaara-kun."
"I see. That makes sense. What about the rest of you?" the busty blonde asked.
Moka smiled and said, "Most of us here are romantically involved with Naruto-kun. We truly love him and we want to help make his life here in the village a little more enjoyable. As long as we're together, I think we'll all be very happy."
"Good to hear it. I'm curious, can you tell me what kind of Yokai you all are? If you're worried, just know that you can trust me. I would never hurt any of you or judge you based on what you are. You're obviously important to Naruto-kun, and his happiness is important to me. I just wish most of the village felt the same way." Tsunade said, sighing afterwards. "I had hoped that with some time away that they'd learn to be more accepting of him. Seems that was just a pipe dream."
The girls frowned sadly at that. After a brief moment of silence, Kurumu spoke up. "I'm a succubus. Yukari here is a witch. Moka is a vampire. This little one is Lilith, a fairy. Ririko-sensei is a lamia. And my mom here is a succubus as well. Mizore and Tamao already told you what they were."
"Quite the diverse group, aren't you?" Tsunade said, grinning at them. "Though now I have to wonder about something. Have any of you been sexually active with Naruto-kun? If so, I'd like to perform a scan to check something before I make any decisions about what you'll be doing here in the village."
Moka, Kurumu, and Ririko each blushed and raised their hands slowly. "Yes. And there's a good chance we might be pregnant too…" Moka said as she started blushing deeper.
Tsunade nodded in understanding before she approached them. "Sit still and don't move. I'm going to perform a scan on each of you. This won't hurt, I promise." Seeing them nod in understanding, she stepped up to Moka first and began her scan. After a moment, she shook her head and said, "I can't find anything. Tell me, how recently did you have sex with him? It might just be too early to tell."
Moka blushed worse and said, "It was just yesterday, actually. I had a feeling it would be too early to tell."
The blonde Hokage nodded in understanding. "Come see me again after three weeks and I should be able to tell by then. Kurumu-chan, let me have a look at you." She said before approaching Kurumu and beginning her scan.
Tsunade frowned as she performed her scan. Shaking her head, she said, "I can't be sure yet. When and how often have you been having sex?"
Kurumu said, "We made love for the first time a little over a week ago. I figured it might be too soon to tell."
The Fifth nodded and said, "Indeed. Can I assume the same for you, Ririko-san?"
The lamia nodded and said, "That's correct. Should we come pay you a visit after a couple of weeks?"
Tsunade nodded again. "Yes. For now we won't worry about it. Instead, I'd like to ask if any of you have any interest in working as a part of our shinobi forces? You may not be able to use chakra like we do, and your abilities may differ from us, but you'd still be welcomed."
Moka shook her head and said, "Can we wait to see if we're pregnant before we make our decision?"
"Of course. No point in rushing things, after all. Now, are you all going to be moving in with Naruto-kun? It's the safest place in the village for all of you, after all." Tsunade questioned.
Mizore frowned in thought for a time before she asked, "Would Gaara-kun and Ruby be able to live there with us?"
"That's fine. I just hope you'll all remember to use silencing seals should you decide to be sexually active with your boyfriends. Now…"
Before Tsunade could continue, Naruto's clones scowled and said, "Hokage-sama, we have a problem. We'll escort the girls to our home. You need to hurry to T&I. It would seem a certain problem has reared its ugly head."
Tsunade scowled, not at all liking the sound of it. "Take the girls home and don't let anyone in. I'll contact you all later if need be." She said before she hurried out of the room.
"You heard her. Let's get you girls home." One of the clones said with a friendly smile on its face.
Moka and the others frowned, but didn't say a word. Instead, they followed the clones and hoped that everything would be okay.
Naruto – Earlier
Upon arriving at the room where Konan was waiting, Naruto realized something was very wrong. Ibiki and Anko were standing guard outside the room. While on the outside, this may not seem like anything wrong, but as Naruto grew closer, they turned towards him and asked, "What are you doing here, Naruto? Konan is not to be disturbed."
The Kyuubi frowned deeply at them and focused his senses. Looking into their eyes, he could see that they seemed to be in a daze of sorts. Taking a few steps closer, Naruto listened as Anko said, "You are not permitted entry to this room. They are not to be disturbed."
The word 'they' set off all kinds of alarm bells. Quickly knocking the two of them out, figuring he could free them from the genjutsu later, he opened the door a crack and scowled at what he saw. In the room, Danzo Shimura could be seen standing over Konan. Naruto quickly created a clone and had it dispel to inform his clones of what was happening.
"I cannot allow you to expose my crimes. It is unfortunate, but you must perish." Danzo said as he prepared to end Konan.
As Danzo began to flash through hand seals for a jutsu of some kind, Naruto slipped behind him and proceeded to stab him in the back numerous times with a kunai. "You won't touch her asshole!"
When Danzo appeared in the corner without a scratch on him, Naruto scowled and said, "Remove your wrappings, Danzo Shimura. I want to see what the hell you're hiding."
The war hawk of Konoha scowled distastefully at Naruto and said, "I did not expect you to return so soon." After a moment, he smirked to himself and attempted to put the Kyuubi in a genjutsu. "Obey me Kyuubi. I command you to kill that woman."
Naruto frowned deeply at him and said, "Hell no!" After a moment, he came to a realization. "You've got an implanted Sharingan, don't you?!"
Removing his bandage wrappings, Danzo smirked at the shocked look on Naruto's face. "Indeed. Now obey me you monster!"
The Kyuubi scoffed and said, "In your dreams asshole. Your precious eyes won't work on me. Unlike the previous Kyuubi, I won't succumb to that shit so easily. You're a traitor, Danzo Shimura. And as with any traitor to the village, it's time I put you down. Now die!" And with that, Naruto revealed his true form and sent fireballs flying at the war hawk.
Naruto wasn't surprised to see Danzo dodge out of the way. In fact, he had expected it and had predicted how the bastard would move. Appearing at his side, Naruto lashed out with his claws and ripped out three of the Sharingan eyes embedded in Danzo's disfigured arm, much to the bastard's annoyance.
"You are nothing more than a weapon to be used, Kyuubi. You've become far too unruly in your time away. If need be, I'll lock you up and use you to breed more Kyuubis like you. Ones that will be far more cooperative. Now submit!" Danzo exclaimed, once more trying to take control of the Kyuubi with his Sharingan.
The blonde scoffed again before thrusting his hand forward at lightning speed, ripping out the Sharingan in Danzo's eye socket. "You forget asshole, I've got the Sharingan as well. Your genjutsu won't do shit to me!" Crushing the Sharingan in the palm of his hand, Naruto listened with glee as Danzo screamed out in a mixture of anger and pain.
As the old man ranted on about the loss of his eye, Naruto quickly severed Danzo's monstrous arm from his body and lit it aflame. Afterwards, not willing to take any chances, Naruto went in for the kill, only for a couple of Root members appeared to protect their master. Growling at this, Naruto prepared to go on the attack, only for Tsunade and a squad of Anbu to appear on the scene.
Seeing this, Danzo scowled before saying, "You'll pay for this, Naruto Uzumaki. I guarantee it!"
"You're not getting away!" Naruto shouted as he activated his Sharingan and ensnared Danzo in a genjutsu of his own. Quickly dispatching the Root that were in his way, Naruto soon dashed forward and thrusted his clawed hand through Danzo's chest, ripping out his heart. Blinking a moment, Naruto looked at Danzo as the light began to fade from the man's eyes. "Well, what do ya know? Seems you did have a heart after all." He said before crushing the heart in his hand.
Despite herself, Tsunade snickered for a moment before she stepped up to him. "Is Konan all right?"
Naruto nodded before he turned and looked into Konan's eyes. "She was placed under a powerful genjutsu. I'll free her real quick and then we can start the interrogation."
Tsunade nodded and entered the room with Naruto, watching as he set the beautiful bluenette free. Once she had come to, Konan looked around for a moment before her eyes settled on the Kyuubi before her. "So, it's true. You really have become the new Kyuubi."
Naruto chuckled and asked, "That's the first thing you say when you see me? Danzo Shimura was attempting to kill you. It would seem you have information that would implicate him in some kind of crime. Tell me, what did Danzo do to you in the past?"
Konan scowled at this and said, "It's because of him that Yahiko was killed and Nagato turned down the path he's on now."
Tsunade scowled at this and sat down with Naruto. "Explain. What exactly happened? I assume this has something to do with why the Akatsuki are seeking to capture all the bijuu?"
The amber-eyed beauty nodded and said, "Indeed. Let's start at the beginning…"
Hours later
Tsunade and Naruto frowned deeply as they processed all the information they had been given. After a while, Naruto said, "Konan-san, I think you need to move into my home. It's the safest place in the village right now, what with all the seals in place. We know that Nagato, Zetsu, and this fake 'Madara' Uchiha will attempt to get to you to end you. I'd like to keep you safe. You seem like a good person and I'd rather not see anything happen to you."
"Thank you." Konan said sincerely. "If there is anything else I can do to help, I'll do so."
Tsunade smiled kindly at her and said, "If we think of anything, we'll let you know. For now, it's best that you get some essentials and move in with Naruto-kun. I need to assemble the council and deal with some issues. As for you Naruto-kun, I know you've been sexually active with those three. If they are pregnant, I hope you're ready for it. I know how much you want a family, but they may not be safe in or out of the village. Inside, there's the citizens of Konoha to worry about. Outside, you've got enemies in the Akatsuki and elsewhere. Actually, now that I think about it, I have a mission that's just perfect for you. Once you and the others have settled in, I want you to come see me in my office. We've got some things to discuss."
Naruto nodded in understanding. After a moment, he said, "I know it may seem like kind of a stupid thing to do under these circumstances, but we love each other and want to start a family together. If they are pregnant, I'll be there for them. Nothing will ever hurt my family. And if somebody tries…they're dead. It's as simple as that. And if the people of Konoha know what's good for them, they'll leave my beautiful girlfriends alone."
"Of course, Naruto-kun. I'll have someone accompany Konan to get some basic necessities. She'll be brought to your compound later. For now, go home and spend some time with your loved ones." Tsunade said before the three of them rose to their feet. "I expect to see you in my office later. We've got some things to discuss."
"Hai, Hokage-sama. I'll see you later. Konan, I'll be waiting at home for you. I'll key you into the seals after you arrive." Naruto said before he left the room.
Once he was gone, Tsunade looked into Konan's eyes and said, "I'm afraid the Akatsuki's plan to take the bijuu is doomed to failure. Gaara and Naruto-kun have become the new Ichibi and Kyuubi respectively. They cannot be sealed like the bijuu before them. But that doesn't matter in the long run. We'll use that to our advantage and crush the remaining members of the Akatsuki. Once they've been exterminated, we'll continue to work towards the goal of peace amongst the nations. I know you may not like to hear that, but your old 'friends' need to be dealt with before they can hurt anyone else."
Konan frowned deeply for a time before she reluctantly nodded her head in understanding. "Nagato…is dear to me. But he's lost his way. The peace that he preached about, the peace that he wanted…he threw it all away for the path he's on now. It would be a small mercy should he die. For what it's worth…I'm sorry. I tried to be there for him and guide him back onto the right path, but I failed…"
"You can't blame yourself. From what you've told us, Danzo and this fake Madara are to blame for what happened to your friend and his descent into madness. Now come, I'll take you to buy what you need. Clothes, basic feminine hygiene products, whatever you may need. Then we'll get you to your new home. Just be good to Naruto, okay? He's been through more than enough as it is." Tsunade said before she stood up and helped Konan up as well.
"You have my word that I will not try to harm Naruto. In fact, I'm willing to fight to protect him if need be. But…"
Tsunade nodded in understanding. "I know. You're wary of the villagers. I don't trust them to leave Naruto and his loved ones alone."
The bluenette frowned and said, "Even if it's from your own villagers…I will protect him. That's my promise to you."
"Thank you, Konan-san." Tsunade said before she led Konan out of the room.
Naruto
As Naruto neared his home in the clan district, he was caught off guard when he heard somebody calling his name. Turning slightly, he watched as a rather familiar face approached him alongside her team. "Ah, Hinata-chan. It's been a while. Kiba, Shino, it's good to see you as well. And…Akamaru? Damn you've gotten big."
Kiba chuckled a bit as he patted Akamaru on the side. "I know. Akamaru's pretty impressive, isn't he?"
"Of course. And it's good to see you as well, Shino and Hinata. You two still dating?" Naruto asked, smiling at his friends.
Upon reaching Naruto, Hinata hugged him tight before stepping back and smiling at him. "Actually, we're engaged now. And, erm…"
Shino smiled as he wrapped an arm around Hinata's shoulders. "We're expecting our first child by the end of the year."
Naruto hugged his friends and said, "I'm so happy for you! Congratulations."
Hinata blushed prettily and nodded her head in thanks. "Thank you, Naruto. What about you? How have you been? I thought your mission would keep you out of the village for at least a couple of years."
Naruto sighed and scratched the back of his head. "Yeaaaah, things didn't really work out. The mission ended in failure, but Mikogami-sama said that it was prudent I return home anyways. It's kind of a long story, but I can say this. I finally found some wonderful girls that genuinely love me for who I am. I'm actually really happy now."
Kiba blinked and asked, "Wait, girls? As in more than one? Are they hot?"
Shino facepalmed before saying, "Kiba. Try to think before you speak, okay?"
Naruto chuckled softly and said, "They're beautiful. I gotta warn you now though, they're Yokai like me. I met them during my mission with Gaara. So please try to treat them as you would anyone else."
Kiba nodded and said, "Hey man, if they make you happy, I'm all for it. Kami knows you get enough shit from the villagers to last a lifetime. I'd love to meet them sometime and see what they're like."
Hinata smiled at him and said, "Same here. You deserve to be happy. Oh! Before I forget! Ino's been asking around about you for a while now. You might want to get in touch with her and let her know you're back."
Naruto quirked a brow in curiosity, but decided against asking what Ino wanted with him. Instead, he turned and motioned for his friends to follow him. "Follow me. I'll introduce you to the girls. Fair warning though: two of the girls are interested in Gaara. They're waiting for him to transfer here to Konoha to be with them." Falling into pace beside him, the members of Team Kurenai chatted with their friend about everything they had been up to as well as what Naruto's most recent mission had been like.
Upon arriving at his home, they were a little surprised to see Ino waiting there for them, or rather Naruto. When she turned to face them, Naruto raised a brow and asked, "Ino? What's up? Did you need something from me?"
Ino smiled as she took a few steps towards them before she hurried forward and glomped onto Naruto. "Naruto-kun! You're finally home! I was wondering when I'd get to see you again."
Slowly hugging Ino back, he asked, "Ino? I'm confused. Weren't you still upset with me for killing Sasuke? I highly doubt you've gotten over that yet."
The beautiful blonde shook her head before saying, "I got over that over a year ago, Naruto-kun. I just wasn't sure how to approach you and apologize for my behavior. Besides, after having a long talk with my family, I really got to thinking. Naruto-kun, I like you. You're very sweet, you're kind, you're handsome…you're a really wonderful person. When you left and I wasn't able to see you anymore, I really missed you. Umm…you don't have a girlfriend yet…do you?"
Frowning slightly, Naruto reached up and rubbed the back of his head. "Actually, I have four of them. Moka-chan, Kurumu-chan, Ririko-chan, and Yukari-chan. They're like me. We're not exactly human. Why do you ask?"
Ino pouted cutely and said, "Damn. I bet they're beautiful too, aren't they? I…don't really have a chance, do I?"
Naruto blinked a couple of times before asking, "Are…are you interested in me, Ino? Umm…yes, they're all very beautiful and I love them dearly. If you want, you can come in and meet them? I'm sure you'd get along very well with them."
Ino smiled at him before leaning up and kissing him on the cheek. "Yes I'm interested in you. I've missed you so much. You're under the laws of the CRA, right? Do…do you think…?"
Naruto frowned and said, "You'd have to talk with my girlfriends and try to convince them. I don't hate you Ino. In fact, I think you're very beautiful. But I won't enter a relationship with anyone else without their consent."
The blonde woman nodded in understanding before saying, "I'll do whatever it takes to convince them that I deserve to be with you too. I've missed you so much, Naruto-kun. And please, call me Ino-chan. After all, we're going to be together soon. And I expect you to take me on a date soon!"
Naruto chuckled softly before he showed them into his home. Once inside, he smiled at the heavenly scent wafting out of the kitchen. Taking a seat in the living room, he smiled happily at his loved ones. Kurumu, being ever the affectionate one, took a seat on his lap and kissed him on the cheek. "Welcome home honey. Are these your friends?"
Hugging Kurumu close, he kissed her on the lips sweetly. "Yes. These are the members of Team Kurenai: Kiba Inuzuka, Hinata Hyuga, and Shino Aburame. And Kiba's best friend there is Akamaru. And this is Ino Yamanaka. I've told you girls about her before. It seems she's missed me as well."
Yukari frowned as she entered the room and looked at Ino. "Isn't she one of the girls that was crazy about that Sasuke guy? Didn't she say she hated you or something?"
Ino sighed and hung her head. "That's me. I got over him a year ago and I've really missed Naruto-kun. I should never have said the things I did to him." Looking at Naruto at this point, she said, "Naruto-kun, I'm truly sorry for the things I said to you back then. Most of us realized that Sasuke was a terrible person that would never have shown anyone any affection. We were obsessed with him and were pretty much a pack of rabid fangirls. You…you were always really nice to us, despite the fact that some of us were rather…horrible to you. Umm…" Frowning sadly, she tried to figure out how to phrase what she wanted to say.
After a time, she began to speak again. "Sasuke…was a terrible person. And whenever he spurned our advances or ignored us or anything…some of us would take our frustrations out on you. Sakura was the worst offender, and she never got the chance to apologize to you for any of it. I…I don't even know if she would have apologized to you at some point. But the point I'm trying to make is that I'm really, truly sorry for what I've done to you. When you left, I really got to thinking about our relationship, or rather a lack thereof. Then, when I thought about it harder, I realized something. I like you, maybe even love you. I want to be with you because you're important to me. I just…I hope your girlfriends give me the opportunity."
Yukari frowned deeply, but didn't say a word. Instead, Ririko entered and looked her over appraisingly. "Well, you're certainly pretty enough. I won't deny you outright, but I need to be sure of something." Dropping her illusion, the lamia revealed her true form to Ino and the others. "Are you okay with sharing Naruto-kun with Yokai like us? If you can't accept that, then we can't let you be with him."
Ino blinked a couple of times before asking, "You're all Yokai too? What exactly are each of you? I'm only asking out of curiosity, not out of hate or anything."
Yukari smiled at her and said, "Kurumu and her mother are succubi. Moka-chan's a vampire. I'm a witch. Tamao is a mermaid. Ririko-sensei is a lamia. And Mizore is a yuki-onna. Gaara is planning to transfer to Konoha, and Ruby will be coming with him. She's a witch like me."
"Wow, that's quite the diverse group. What the heck did you get up to on that mission of yours, Naruto?" Kiba questioned.
Naruto chuckled to himself and said, "It was an interesting mission for sure. Definitely had its ups and downs. In the end though, it went down as a failure on my record. There were a series of circumstances that led up to that. Still, I enjoyed my time at Yokai Academy for the most part."
Ino looked around at the various Yokai before offering them all a smile. "It doesn't matter to me what you all are. You're all people, just like us. There's nothing wrong with any of you, and I'd be more than happy to share Naruto-kun with you."
Ageha smirked and said, "Well, that's something. Girls, what do you say?"
Moka entered the room, wiping her hands dry with a hand towel. "If she loves Naruto-kun, I don't mind, so long as she doesn't try to hog all of his time to herself. But enough of that, it's time for dinner."
Ino blinked as she looked at Moka Akashiya. "Umm…is it just me, or does she look a lot like Sakura?"
Naruto chuckled a bit at that as his friends nodded in agreement. "I know, the similarities are kind of eerie. Trust me though, Moka is an amazing person and far nicer than Sakura ever was."
"And if that smell is anything to go by, I'm willing to bet she's an amazing cook as well. You've landed yourself quite the catch, Naruto-kun." Ino said, smiling at what she hoped was her soon to be boyfriend.
"Seriously. They're all gorgeous, and I'm willing to bet they're strong too. Have to admit, I envy you Naruto. Lucky bastard." Kiba said as he looked at all the girls.
Naruto chuckled softly and patted his friend on the back. "I'm sure you'll meet someone soon enough that'll be just right for you, Kiba. You definitely deserve to be happy with a nice girl."
Kiba smiled in thanks before he stood up and went to go help set the dinner table. Once he was gone, Naruto looked at the other three and asked, "Are you three staying for dinner as well? You're more than welcome to."
Hinata smiled in thanks before saying, "We'd love to stay and enjoy dinner with all of you. Besides, we have so much to discuss now that you're back! We're eager to hear all about your mission."
"Ino-chan? How about you?"
The beautiful blonde leaned against Naruto and said, "I'd love to stay for a while. The food smells amazing, and I really want to get to know my future sister wives." Winking at him, she giggled and proceeded to the dining table where she sat and awaited her future hubby's arrival as well as the others.
Naruto blinked and looked at his girlfriends. "She's really serious about this, isn't she?"
Ririko giggled and said, "It certainly seems that way. Come on you two, let's go eat."
Kurumu pouted as she had to get off her lover's lap. Helping him up off the couch, she held his hand and walked with him into the dining room so they could enjoy their meal. I didn't think anyone here would be interested in my destined one. I'm not really sure how to feel about this… This sentiment was shared by the others as well, each of them wondering about what else this new land had to surprise them.
The next morning
Naruto currently stood before Tsunade with Neji and Rock Lee at his side. Thinking back to the night before, he found himself wondering how Konan was acclimating to her new environment. She had moved into his home and had picked out one of the empty rooms to live in for the foreseeable future.
Aside from that, he had spent time catching up with his friends and, together with his girlfriends, had talked with Ino about her feelings and about what would happen if she became Naruto's girlfriend as well. They hadn't denied her the chance to be with him, but they promised to keep an eye on her just in case she sought to hurt their lover.
Now, however, Naruto focused his attention on Tsunade as she began to speak. "Naruto-kun, I have chosen this mission specifically for you. I know you have only just returned, but this is far too important for me to put it off any longer. I'm assigning Neji and Lee are your backup on this mission. If you want, feel free to take some of your girlfriends along if you think they can help."
"Anyways, I received a report from a friend in the Land of Demons. An unknown group freed the spirit of a demon named Moryo and are planning to restore its body so the demon can truly be revived. A priestess by the name of Shion has the power to seal Moryo away again, or perhaps even kill the blasted thing if we're lucky enough. Your mission is to escort Shion to the site of Moryo's body and assist her however you can. You are to protect her with your lives if need be. We absolutely cannot allow a demon to be revived like that." Tsunade explained.
Naruto frowned and asked, "Do we know anything about the people trying to restore Moryo? Or are we in the dark here?"
Tsunade shook her head and said, "Details on them are few. You're going in blind, Naruto-kun. Be safe and make sure you all return alive. I'm trusting you to succeed in this mission."
"Of course. Neji, Lee, make sure you pack for a couple of months, just to be on the safe side. I'm going to bring Moka and Ririko along. We need to get them used to combatting rogue shinobi if they want to protect themselves and our loved ones in the future." Naruto said before he looked at Tsunade again. "We'll be careful, Hokage-sama. If that is all, we'll be leaving now. Wish us luck!"
Smiling at her surrogate younger brother, Tsunade said, "Good luck. Be careful." And with that, Naruto and the others left the office to return to their homes. I hope you know what you're doing, Naruto-kun. Your girlfriends are going to be put in a dangerous situation, and I don't know if they can fight rogue shinobi like this. They might be safest staying home… Yes, Tsunade was worried. Nobody had any idea exactly what awaited them on this mission, and she couldn't help but fear the worst. Be safe…
A/N - And that's the chapter! Hopefully you enjoyed it. I don't know if it's any good, but here's hoping.
Anywho, as you can see, Ino's got a crush on Naruto, Danzo's dead, Konan's moved in with Naruto, Shino and Hinata are expecting a baby, yada yada. Like I said, a lot happened in this chapter. lol
I dunno what I'll work on next. Hopefully I can actually focus on what I write next. No guarantees though. ADHD is a bitch to deal with. x.x
