"Yes! I am Shikume Kazahana my mother kept her maiden name to keep her families name in the line so my father adopted it as well. By the way, he's not there as he went on a diplomatic trip."

Naruto grinned. "Well... I bet she's told you a lot about what happened back then eh?"

The boy chuckled nervously. "Yes... she said you were a complete idiot..."

"Wha...!"

"But she also said, it was because you told her to never give up that I was even born. So I have you to thank for even existing." Shikume smiled gratefully.

"Complete idiot..." Naruto whispered.

"What?" Shikume looked at him startled.

"She said I was a complete idiot?!"

Shikume smiled. He was just like what she told him about. He was loud and... sort of uncouth. But really friendly. Indeed, his mom was always right.

"So.. have you ever met a ninja?" Boruto hesitantly tried to enter the conversation.

"No.. not really. Sometimes, my mom hires people from the nearest ninja village to escort officials or important cargo, but I never really get to meet them. You guys are my first, and to be in the presence of the Hokage makes it all the more important for me." Shikume smiled, looking at Naruto.

"Well, I guess... although the old man's not really all that special." Boruto shrugged his shoulders and folded his arms.

"Hey! I'm not old!" Naruto frowned. Here he was, in his prime of thirty four years old, and his son was bad talking him. Although, he was almost the exact same way when he was a kid.

"Were here." Shikume grinned at his passengers.

Kisuke opened the door for the group, and helped Naruto with the luggage. Naruto glanced around the castle. It was more modern than when he remembered it. Taking Hinata's hand, he smiled.

"Hey.. thank you Hinata."

"For what?" Hinata glanced at him.

"Everything..."

"Oh... I see."

Himawari grabbed Hinata's hand and smiled at her dad. "Daddy, I like this place. It's really big and pretty!"

"I knew you'd like it Hima. Did you know, back when I first came here, this place had never known spring?"

Hima looked surprised. "Really? But it's not spring."

"Not now, only once a year. That's why I brought your winter gear. They have to create an artificial heat cause this place is a place of never-ending snow."

"Why don't they make it spring everyday?" Hima asked scrunching up her face.

"Cause then the name Land Of Snow wouldn't be fitting, believe it."

Hima made an 'o' shape with her mouth and grinned. "I like it here!"

Kisuke led the small group to the place where Koyuki was. She apparently was waiting for them cause as soon as they reached the door to the main room it opened.

"Naruto!" Koyuki glanced around the group at the people. Her eyes settling on Boruto she gasped.

"Aww! He looks like you when you were young!" She grinned at Naruto who sheepishly grinned. "I guess.."

"Come here." Koyuki motioned for Naruto to come forward and pulled him into a hug.

"Its nice to see you again.." She whispered into his ear. A tumult of emotions ran through her body. She was happy she finally got to see the most important person besides her family she had ever known.

"You too! This is Hinata, Boruto, and Himawari. And.. you never told me you had a son." He pointed an accusing finger at the actress. "By the way, Sakura sends her regards."

"I wanted to surprise you with Shikume. And Sakura? She was one of your companions right? The pinkette?"

Naruto could mentally hear Sakura screaming 'so I'm just pinkette now huh?'

"Yes..."

"And your other companions were named... uh. Let me think... Sasuke! And Kakashi?" Koyuki hesitantly glanced at Naruto. Seeing him nod in assent she turned her attention to Hinata.

"I see, yes.. the lucky lady here married you. You chose nice Naruto. Your so pretty!" Koyuki pulled the embarrassed Hinata into a warm hug. Naruto laughed, watching the older lady gushing on about Hinata.

"Actually I'm the lucky one." Naruto scratched the back of his head smiling.

"He's right about that one.." Boruto nonchalantly smirked. "He's always busy ya know. She has to stay up late just for him to not come home. And once, he didn't come home for three whole days."

Naruto had no reply for that, knowing it was true. Koyuki glanced at him.

"I know how you feel. Paperwork is the worst eh?" Yukie grinned. "Boruto is kinda different, but he's like you isn't he."

"No way! I'm nothing like this old man." Boruto folded his arms and glared at the older actress. He had to say, she was beautiful. Her face barely had any wrinkles, and any that were noticeable accented her perfectly. He could tell she was gorgeous when she was younger.

"Hmm. I see." Koyuki frowned at the younger blonde. Turning to Naruto her face morphed into a smile.

"You've gotten tall! And, it's surprising to say you've gotten a little more handsome." Koyuki grinned teasingly.

"A little? Hinata says I'm very handsome! She says I've always been handsome." Naruto proudly puffed out his chest and pointed to Hinata. Yukie laughed at him.

"She's just being nice. All women are like that. Well.. Most anyway." Koyuki smiled at the impossible expression on Naruto's face. "And Hinata's even nicer than most, plus she is married to you which means she has to be ten times nicer."

"Whatever.." Naruto groaned.

Turning to Hima she giggled. "So cute! Is this level of cute even possible?" Crushing Hima with her hug, she continued to squeal. After talking quietly with the youngest Uzumaki, she stood up.

"Wait, I forgot to ask. Are you guys hungry?" Koyuki grinned excitedly.

"What change did I miss? You've turned into a five year old kid since the last time I saw you." Naruto smiled as she frowned at him.

"I don't know.. but, back to the event at hand. Are. You. Guys. Hungry?"

Her question was answered with a chorus of yes' and nodding in agreement. Smiling to herself she turned and went into the direction of the kitchen. She rarely cooked herself, but since this was a special time, she thought she'd use her handiwork and whip up some dishes. She had prepared earlier on, and was ready for her guests.

"In here." She waved her guests into an enormous dining room. When they were all seated at the table, she gave her waitresses cues to bring the food in.

"Wow. You really spruced the place up." Naruto said to the older woman. Koyuki nodded. "I put more pictures up, you know. To brighten it up. It was depressing after my uncle took over. When we finally kicked him out, I renovated almost everything. Left some things the same though. To remind me of my dad."

Naruto gave her a knowing smile.

After the food had been served and eaten, the family sat in her big living room. It was big and cozy, with a large fireplace lighting up the room.

"Man... I like your couch.." Naruto grinned as he sank into the comfy cushions of the couch. Koyuki nodded and turned to Hinata.

"Well dear, I'd like to get to know your family better. You seem really nice, I hope he's treating you well." Koyuki spoke softly as to not let Naruto hear. Hinata blushed and nodded.

"Naruto is the best husband anyone could ever ask for. Despite being gone a lot, he cares about is and that's what matters."

Koyuki smiled. "Do you care about him a lot too?"

Hinata nodded. "I.. have loved him since I was a child. I was being bullied when I was younger, he saved me and ever since then I have admired him, and it blossomed into love."

"But.. what happened to make it blossom?"

"Well... I guess it was his attitude. Naruto has known a lot of pain, I don't know if you knew this but he's been alone his whole childhood. Being the jinchuuriki of the nine tails made him the outcast of Konaha. I guess, him being through so much and still having the strength to smile inspired me. I wanted to be like him."

Unbeknownst to the two, a silent stalker was listening in on their conversation. Boruto frowned.

Been through so much? What does she mean?

"And?" Yukie egged her on.

"Why are you so interested?" Hinata raised her eyebrows.

Yukie smiled. "I just wanted to know... why you wanted to marry an idiot like him."

"Yes.. He may be an idiot, but he's my idiot. I guess his idiocy is kinda charming in a way. He's always smiling, no matter what he goes through. have you heard of when he fought pain and saved the village?"

Yukie nodded.

"Well, when he was fighting, he got pinned down. Multiple metal rods were stabbed through his body. Watching him in pain made me want to go help him. Disregarding my escorts advice I jumped down there to save him." Hinata flinched remembering. "I knew I was weak... if Naruto couldn't defeat him, then I definitely couldn't. I tried my best though, but in the end it was all for naught. I confessed to him, hoping he would hear my heart."

"Hmm... let me guess. He didn't understand?"

Hinata shook her head. "After... that, he didn't remember my confession."

"After what?"

"When I almost died by Pains hand, he lost control of the Kyuubi. I heard he almost went up to eight tails. All because he thought I was dead." Hinata smiled. "After that I knew he care for me. Even if it was only a friendly relationship."

Koyuki nodded. " I see you care a lot about him." Yukie inwardly sighed. Her little blonde saviour had grown and married a wonderful woman.

"Hey Naruto. Did I hear right? That you went to the moon once?" Koyuki turned to the former Hokage.

Naruto blushed. "W-where do you hear that? I didn't know that kind of news travels all the way here.."

"What are talking about? If someone save your planet from a certain demise wouldn't you know about it? Especially if your planet was going to be destroyed by our moon?" Koyuki shook her head. "Its known worldwide. I'm surprised your even saying that."

"Wait... went to the moon?" Boruto sat himself up and gazed curiously at his parents. He'd never heard that story before.

"Don't tell me... you never told your kids you went to the moon?"

Boruto glared at his dad. "Okay... I want to know now."

NNNAAARRRUUUTTTOOO

Yo readers! Thanks for reading, I would appreciate your feedback, please only constructive criticism, Arigato. Koyuki is OOC since I don't know her that well, and I kinda wanted her to be different from her usually brooding self. Maybe a lighter version of Sasuke heh. Sorry for mis-naming her, I haven't watched the movie in a while and I didn't really want to watch it all the way through again. For the people who said I did wrong by going through a filler... I don't care. I said to the readers, if you have a request on where you'd like Naruto to take his family, I would do it. Someone suggested the Land of Snow, so I intend to follow through with my promise. My apologies if you don't like it, and I'm sorry for doing 'filler trash' as you put it. I like all the movies, and I don't care if they are filler. Anyway, back to lighter topics :)

Hina-chan signing off!
