Now a message to my reviewers:

Dragon Man 180: hehe well he kinda disserved it that time, but don't expect to see it that much as Sakura actually really respects Naruto. The only reason you haven't seen that yet is the same reason Naruto has been acting a goof…okay so he is a goof but not as big a goof if that makes any since . anyways but they have put up a front for the benefit of Konoha so look for it to change k?

The Kitsune Clan Compound – chapter 14

…Training ground seven the day after the battle…

The sound of fists pounding filled the air. Perched on top of two of the training logs Sasuke and Naruto (each on their own log respectively) were sparing. Each throwing punches at the other only to block and repeat. This went on for several more minuets before Naruto back flipped off of the log.

Wiping the sweat off of his brow the blonde smirked up at the Uchiha. "Enough of a warm up, ready for some real sparing?" the blond asked with a gleam in his eyes.

Sasuke nodded and jumped to the ground in front of the blonde and said "Hai, don't hold back."

Naruto tilted his head and said "If that's the way you want it."

Nodding Sasuke bent his knees and crouched slightly raising his hands in a claw like manner. Naruto chuckled and said "Not bad form for just copying, but bend your left knee a little more so you put a little bit more weight on it. And hold your arms closer to you, bend you elbows just a little."

With a small scowl Sasuke readjusted his stance and said "Like this?"

Naruto looked over Sasuke's form once more and nodded before saying "Hai, you'll have to find your own comfort zone from there. Lets go!"

Saying this the blonde rushed at Sasuke racking a claw like hand in a down ward slash. Sasuke raised his arm to block but at the last second thought better of it and instead back flipped out of the way.

Naruto smirked and said "Not bad hehe." before rushing forward once more aiming his left hand at the Raven haired boys head.

Sasuke smirked and blocked the swipe with one from his right hand (think claws locking), before launching his left hand at the blond only for the blonde to counter with his (Naruto's) right hand. "Don't think I'll fall for the same trick as Neji."

With a wicked grinning Naruto said "Oh iie of course not!" before head butting the unsuspecting Uchiha.

"Ugh.." Said Sasuke stumbling back.

Naruto laughed and said "It's a bestially stile, you should learn to expect the unexpected!"

"Naruto-kun, Sasuke-kun!" exclaimed Sakura rushing up to them.

"Hi Sakura-chan!" exclaimed Naruto grinning.

"We don't have time for pleasantries Naruto-kun! Hokage-sama has summoned us!" Sakura exclaimed.

Naruto's expression immediately changed to one of seriousness and he said "Hai!"

Sasuke shook his head and said "Lets go."

Leaving the training ground the three soon arrived at the Hokage tower. Making their way up to the Hokage's office Sakura knocked and said "Hokage-same! we have arrived!"

"Enter." Replied the Hokage from inside the room.

Opening the door the three genin entered to find Hinata, Lee, Tenten, Sai, Kakashi, Gai, Kurenai, Shino, Shikamaru, Kiba, Neji, Hiashi, Mikon, and a very buxomly women. Nodding the Hokage looked over those present and said "Most of you have been called here so that we can discuss the Kitsune Clan."

Looking over to Hinata the Hokage asked "Would you care to explain?"

Nodding Hinata turned to the new comers and said "I have requested that the Kitsune Clan be recognized as an official Clan of Konoha."

"Oh? I don't know how the village will take that." Naruto replied having first hand knowledge of the way villagers treated those who they considered evil.

The Hokage smiled and said "Perhaps some will feel that way, but many were witness to the valor of the Kitsune Clan as they defended the village from attack."

"Oh? That's awesome!" Naruto exclaimed with a smile at the thought of maybe being accepted by the village.

"I have made a decision." the Hokage said turning his attention to Sasuke.

"Hai Hokage-sama?" Sasuke asked somewhat hesitant.

"Sasuke-kun, I know this will be difficult for you, but I would like for you to give the Uchiha compound to Hinata-san." The Hokage said watching the dark haired genin carefully.

Sasuke looked down and didn't answer. What can I do?....with Itachi still out there I can't even think about a family. Sasuke thought to himself his mind a whirl of confusion.

"Don't get me wrong you would still have a section dedicated to the Uchiha family. But it would just be one of the families within the Kitsune Clan." the Hokage continued almost gently.

Sasuke closed his eyes and with a sigh looked at Hinata She is a leader, better then I could ever be…I may be a lot of things but I'm not stupid. Like I am now…how can I even think of leading? Sasuke thought before making his decision. Turning to her he knelt down formally on the ground. "Hinata-sama, I am just one person. Even with a hundred wives I could not hope to repopulate the Uchiha compound. I ask only that you leave me my family home."

Hinata nodded her head and said "Hai, that is what I wish as well Sasuke-kun."

Nodding Sasuke climbed to his feet and stepping back looked at the Hokage and said "Then this is what I wish as well."

Nodding the Hokage pulled out some scrolls and filling them out turned them to face Sasuke and Hinata who proceeded to sign them.

Hiashi frowned and said "I must once again protest this decision Hokage-sama. Hinata is a Hyuga, and should be placed in the branch family."

"Hiashi-san, she is no longer a Hyuga, but a Kitsune." The Hokage said putting the Hyuga clan head in his place.

Turning to Hinata the Hokage said "Hinata-san, what is your new family name?"

Hinata blinked and turning to Naruto asked "Do you know Kyuubi-sama's real name Naruto-kun?"

Naruto blinked and thought "Hey fuzball what's your name?"

"…hummmmm name…what is my name?" Kyuubi thought back in confusion.

Naruto fell down and thought back "You don't even know you own name!?"

"Hey give me a break! For the past hundred years or so everyone's just called me Kyuubi no Kitsune." The fox replied.

Naruto got back to his feet as everyone continued to stare at him causing him to sweet drop and laugh somewhat nervously.

"Oh now I remember!"exclaimed Kyuubi in happiness.

"Well what is it?" Sakura asked in exasperation at her teammates actions.

"The baka's name is Gekkani Tenkuu." Naruto finally answered the waiting group.

Nodding Hinata turned to the Hokage and said "From this point on I am Gekkani Hinata, heir and someday head of the Kitsune clan."

"Very well then Gekkani-san, I expect you to take the old Uchiha district and turn it into the thriving Kitsune clan compound." the Hokage said smiling at the dark haired girl.

"Hai, I will do my best." Hinata replied.

Nodding the Hokage said "Tomorrow we will be holding the ceremony in remembrance of those who fell in yesterdays battle. The day after I will be announcing my retirement, and the appointment of my successor."

"NANI!" exclaimed Naruto in shock.

The Hokage chuckled and said "I'm getting old Naruto-kun, and would rather not deal with the uprisings that the acceptance of the Kitsune clan into Konoha will cause.

Naruto looked down cast and said "Hai, I understand…but I don't like it."

"So this is the gaki Jiraiya was talking about." the busty women said with a smirk.

Naruto looked at her and cocked his head before asking "Who are you?"

The Hokage chuckled and said "She is the one I sent Sai-san to retrieve."

Naruto blinked and looking back at the women asked in a disbelieving voice "Your Tsunade of the Densetsu no Sannin? As in Densetsu no Kamo Tsunade? That Tsunade?"

The woman grinned and said "Hai that's me!"

"Wait aren't you like over fifty?" Naruto dead paned even as the others had various reactions, which included a clueless looking Lee, an indifferent Neji, and Tenten with stars in her eyes (…don't feel like putting all of their reactions in…so there! XP).

A tick mark appeared on Tsunade's head as she said "Hai, you got a problem with it?"

Naruto sensing his eminent doom waved his hands in front of him in a defensive way and said "Iie, Iie I was just thinking that you aged really well!"

Tsunade smirked and crossing her arms over her chest said "Well then now that you're my problem…wanna make a bet?"

Naruto looked dumb founded and asked in confusion "A bet?"

Tsunade smirked and said "Hai, a bet that I'm guaranteed to win."

Naruto scrunched up his face and asked "Nani?"

With a smirk Tsunade said "Bet I make Hokage before you do."

End:

There you go! chap is finished and typed! Xd hehe I like how it turned out in the end myself.

Okay some explanations I chose the name Gekkani because it means in the moonlight, as apposed to Hyuga which means towards the sun XD. (if you want to know Hinata means sunny place, in the sun so her name can be translated as Sunny place in the moonlight)

Sasuke knows how obsessed he is and is realistic about himself, that's why he gave Hinata the Uchiha compound which will now be referred to as the Kitsune compound.

The Hokage now refers to Hinata as Hinata-san as opposed to Hinata-chan as she is a clan heir acting as head so she now commands the respect of one.

Tenkuu means sky

Densetsu no Sannin is often translated as Three Legendary Shinobi of Konoha

Densetsu no Kamo is often translated as The Legendary Sucker

Oh and:

Nani – what

Iie – no

Hai – yes

baka – stupid

teme – basterd…any others I used?

Okay I think that's everything oh and before I put up the spot for my betas when I wrote this chapter I started with a much different opining. After rereading it I realized it wasn't quite right so I changed it, but if you'd like to see it here is the alternate opening:

…alternate opening…

Naruto was busy slurping down ramen at his favorite stand Ichiraku's. Sasuke who sat beside him on a stool was poking his chopsticks at the noodles in the bowl in front of him, a wary look on his face.

"Ah come on teme." Naruto said whit a slurp before continuing "Don't tell me the mighty Uchiha Sasuke has never eaten ramen."

"All of my food was provided by the villagers…they never brought ramen." Sasuke deadpanned.

Naruto chocked on his noodles as he looked at the dark haired boy. "NEVER!?" the blonde finally gasped out.

Sasuke's eye twitched as he fidgeted in his seat and said under his breath "hai…never."

Naruto's eyes got as big as saucers as they filled with tears. "YOU POOR TEME! NO WONDER YOU'RE SO EMO!" the blonde yelled crying into his hands.

Sasuke twitched and said "Its no big deal baka." as the raised his chopsticks to his mouth and slurped the noodles on them.

When he made no move to lower his chopsticks Naruto looked up and patted Sasuke's shoulder said "There there it'll be okay."

Sasuke stared strait ahead his eyes getting as big as saucers as he swallowed the noodles. Looking down at this bowl he said "Why!? Why did no one tell me their was a food that rivaled tomatoes in gloriousness?"

Naruto nodded and said "Hai, bask in the glory of..what do you man rival tomato's? There is no way a vegetable can rival ramen."

Sasuke, who was now devouring ramen said between bites "Some people say it's a fruit (..it acutely is just so you know! no seriously they are according to my collage biology lab teacher so there!) baka, and have you ever tried them?"

Naruto started to speak before putting a hand to his chin in thought before saying "Now that you mention it…"

Sasuke finished his ramen and bowing to the stunned Teuchi and Ayame turned to Naruto as he put some money on the counter Sasuke said "Well you should try it come on." as he got up and lead the reluctant blonde to the market.

…one tomato, and a revolution later…

Naruto walked behind Sasuke his face blank as his brain processed the fact that while he didn't like them as much as Sasuke he thought tomato's were okay. Sasuke looked over his shoulder at the blond, and rolled his eyes before saying "get over it baka."

"Naruto-kun, Sasuke-kun!" exclaimed Sakura rushing up to them.

"Hey Sakura-chan!" exclaimed Naruto coming out of his slump to give the pink haired kunoichi a goofy grin.

"We don't have time for pleasantries Naruto-kun! Hokage-sama has summoned us!" Sakura exclaimed.

Naruto's expression immediately changed to one of seriousness and he said "Hai!"

Sasuke merely nodded and the three took to the roof tops and made their way to the Hokage's office. Arriving the three made their way up the stairs. Arriving outside of the Hokage's office Sakura knocked and said "Hokage-sama! We have arrived!"

…end of alternate opening…
