Chapter 3: The Adventure Begins.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

The sound of someone knocking on a blonde sand kunoichi's door made the woman jump up from her bed and waddled drowsily to the door. "Hello."she said rubbing her eyes. She didn't notice what happened when she opened the door.

The stranger came in and just lip locked with her lips. This stranger was Shikamaru Nara, the shadow style user. He was wearing pants and a black long-sleeved button-up shirt, his hair in the same ponytail, and in his hand he has a bouquet of purple lilies. Temari wasn't fully awake when he was kissing her, but when she was she flinched and pushed him away.

Shikamaru was confused when she pushed him away from the kiss,"What's wrong Temari? Don't you miss me?" he said with a smile that had a mixture of happiness and sadness. He tried to kiss Temari again, but this time he got a punch to the chin. He was sent outside of the room to the hallway. He looked up in confusion and pain at Temari.

"Do you think I would miss you when you're the one that said it loud and clear that you didn't want to be in a relationship!" she said with an angry tone, "You have balls to come back to me and say what you just said to me and kiss me! I'm actually glad you said what you said that time because if you didn't, I wouldn't be with the guy I'm with right now!" she said abruptly.

This statement made both of them flinch. 'She already found somebody that quick.' he thought, 'That is nonsense! She loves me! But if she did...who is it?'.

'Did I really just say that? Who am I referring to? No? Not him! I'm not referring to Naruto am I!? Maybe I do have some feelings for him.' she thought. "Never come back here, Shikamaru!' she said with a nasty scowl to his name.

He sat there with a fuming mad aura. 'I'm going to fine that baka, and show him the pain I feel, for my Temari-chan away from me!' he thought angrily as ha got up and walked out of the hotel.

Morning in Konoha:

The sun rising up rapidly, ready to make a certain blonde wake up. What the sun didn't know was that the blonde was prepared. This certain blonde had a curtain that blocked out the light, so this blonde stayed sleeping in. Again!

Konoha Gates:

Another blonde , in front of the gates of Konoha, was waiting impatiently for three shinobi. "Damn it! I thought he would be awake by now!" said the blonde.

"Yo, you need not to worry any longer." said one rapping shinobi, "Lord Bee, will wake uo the little fox with a chakra bomb. You stay here, beautiful Temari while I find a blonde fox."

"Fine! But hurry up!" she said.

Killer Bee vanished in a swirl of winds, leaving Temari alone in the front gates. 'Why do we have to have him here in the mission!' she thought as she sighed and stayed there waiting for the other two shinobi.

Naruto's Apartment:

Naruto was sleeping peacefully, having another dream of 'Ramen World'. He was in heaven until a painful shock went through his body.

"Aaaaaaaaaagh!" he yelled out in pain as he grabbed his butt.

One shinobi was laughing in cheers. "Hahaha! That's what you get for not waking up and meeting me and the other three in the front gates." a familiar voice was heard.

"You know instead of using a lightning jutsu to wake me up, you could just put cold water on me or something less painful!" he said in an angry tone.

"Nice to see you too Naruto." the familiar shinobi said.

"So what are you doing in my room, Killer Bee?" he said still in pain, "And why aren't you rapping?"

"I'm already done rapping. I'm more into working my ass off into becoming Raikage." Killer Bee said.

"Sweet! So we'll be rivals into seeing who'll be Kage first!" he said happily, as he moved his fist forward.

"Yeah!" Killer Bee said, as he bumped fists with Naruto, "So hurry up! We have a mission that we need to do."

"'We'? What do you mean 'we'? You're coming too." Naruto asked surprised.

"Hai!" Killer Bee said.

"This is awesome!" he said as he went to the restroom and turned on the shower. Bee was just standing there laughing and waiting for our hyper-active hero.

Konoha Gates:

"Now there are two bakas I have to wait for and two unknown shinobi!" Temari said angrily.

"Actually, that will be two bakas, if I may say." said an unknown voice.

Temari got out her battle fan and was about to attack only for hand to stop it. She was astonished that someone could've stopped her attack,especially by a single hand.

"Gomen. Are you Temari-san of the sand?" the stranger said.

"Yes, why?" she said confused.

"Good! Well, I'm one of the shinobi that is going to be with you in the mission." the stranger said, "My name is Komohota, but you can call me Komo."

She was suspicious of him because he had an immense amount of chakra. Komohota was wearing a white robe with red and yellow stripes around his waist, a long-sworded blade across his back, and under his robe was an original attire for a shinobi.

"As you already know my name, I don't need to tell you again." she said annoyingly.

"Yeah, we were-" he was cut off by Temari's question.

"'We'? What do you mean 'we'?" she said confused, "I only see 'one' and that's you Komohota."

"Oh yeah. Zumorito is more of the quiet-silent type, so he comes out of no where." he said, "That's him." pointing at the top of the Konoha Gate.

Temari looked at where he was pointing at. She was shocked of the sight. It was a guy that had black, spiky hair, a black robe, a sword on his back, and a hidden mist attire. When the sun got in her way, she put her hand up to block the sun. The black, robed guy was gone when she blocked the sun. She looked around and was startled by a voice, "My name is Zumorito. You can call me what fits you, and by the way...the two others are coming."

She looked at him and was startled again. 'He looks like Naruto,but with a white blindfold covering his eyes. I wonder why?' she thought.

As the two shinobi were walking over to them, Killer Bee noticed the other two shinobi next to Temari. "Oi! Who are you two?" he asked abruptly.

"These two are Komo and Zumo." she said while gesturing them to say something, but something was wrong.

As Naruto and Killer Bee got to the group, they both looked at the other two shinobi with suspicion. 'What's with this feeling? It's weird how they have immense chakra like a jinchuriki.' thought both Naruto and Killer Bee. Temari was wondering what was wrong, they were all quiet and she didn't want to say anything.

Jinchuriki Link:

'Naruto, do you feel what I'm feeling,' said Killer Bee.

'Hai! Why do they have an immense amount of chakra?' Naruto said.

'Well, to answer both of your questions. We are both jinchuriki's as well.' Zumo said to both of them in a link.

They both were surprised by the sound of somebody else in a jinchuriki link. They both looked at the source of the sound, and saw the two ninjas appearing with a smile on their faces.

'How is that possible? The other tailed beasts left somewhere else, they didn't want to be inside a human...unless-' Killer Bee was cut off by Komo.

'Yup! They wanted to have someone with them, so they chose specific people to be their vessel. We're one of the ones chosen, and I'm honored to be a vessel.' Komo said happily.

Both Killer Bee and Naruto were shocked by the news. They couldn't adjust to the things they were told. 'Well, who do you have in you?' said Naruto happily.

'I'm the six tails jinchuriki.' Komo said enthusiastically.

'I'm the seven tails jinchuriki.' sighed Zumo.

'Wow!' said Naruto stunningly, 'So you guys are like my brothers.'

'Tsk, no.' Zumo said coldly.

They all looked at the blindfolded shinobi. 'Why do you say that, black head?' Naruto said angrily.

'I don't want to be called your 'brother', blondy.' Zumo shot back at him.

Real World:

"What did you say!?" Naruto said disrupting the link.

"You heard me." Zumo said calmly.

Naruto got ready to attack Zumo, while Zumo just stood there with a smirk on his face. That made Naruto angrier, so he mad the hand sign for a shadow clone. With a puff of smoke, two Naruto's started running at Zumo with a rasengan in each others hand. Everyone was astonished at Naruto's actions.

Zumo didn't do anything at the time, he just stood there. Naruto was really close, just mere inches away from Zumo's chest. Everyone thought that he was a goner, but at the last minute, Zumo went to the shadow clone and destroyed him faster than the blink of an eye, then he went to the real Naruto, and grabbed Naruto's rasengan and crushed it with his bare hands, then did a round house kick on Naruto.

Naruto was sent back to the front of the gate. Everyone, especially Naruto, was astonished by what happened. "Wha-" Naruto said.

"How?" Killer Bee said.

"Impossible!" Temari said.

"Damn." Komo said.

"You...destroyed...my...rasengan...with...your...bare...hands!." Naruto said between gasps, "How did you do that!? You're blindfolded! You can't see!"

"You shouldn't just trust what you see, Naruto. There are enemies that will use their other senses besides sight." Zumo said, "Either way you passed my test, brother." He smiled at the last part.

"Did you just say 'test'?" Temari said.

"Yes. I wanted to see what Naruto would do when an enemy or someone dangerous talks about someone close to him coldly and cold-hearted." Zumo said, "And he passed my test."

Naruto was still mad, since he was being tested. 'Why do I always get tested unexpectedly?' he thought.

"I'm sorry Naruto. I just wanted to see your reaction to this kind of situation. Please forgive me brother." Zumo said sadly as he pleads for forgiveness.

"Okay, but please don't do that again." Naruto said, "I don't enjoy being tested unnoticed."

"Okay. Arigato, Naruto." Zumo thanked, "Before you ask how I did that, crushing your rasengan with my bare hands. That's for me to know and you not to know."

Naruto looked down slowly. "Well, we should get going." Naruto said.

"Hai!" they all said in unison, and jumped off.

Somewhere between Konoha and the Forest Village:

"Why do we have to wait here, Ray!?" said a man with a black coat with red flowers and shuriken.

"We have to because this is where we'll meet those bakas." the guy named Ray said, "Either way prepare yourself, Tai. They won't go easy."

"Whatever. I'll just slice'em up with my swords." Tai says as he was showing off with his swords.

Ray sighed. 'Why do I have to work with this baka?' he thought.

Naruto's Group:

The five-man team were jumping off branches for three hours, trying to get to their location before night fall. The jinchuriki's were good to keep on going for hours, but Temari was human so she was getting more tired easily.

Naruto saw that she was tired, so he thought about if they should rest for her. He saw a nice spot for them to rest at and maybe make a camp. He stopped at the spot he found.

"Why'd you stop Naruto?" Temari asked breathlessly.

"I stopped because you were getting tired, Temari." Naruto said, "Either way we'll make camp here. It's almost night time."

"Hai!" they all said.

So everyone got out their little tents and put them up. Temari was having a hard time putting up her tent, for she was exhausted. Naruto saw this and went to her. Naruto picked up Temari and sat her down on a stump.

"Hey! What was that for?" Temari said while blushing slightly.

"You're tired and I don't want you to overwork yourself, so stay here and rest while i put up your tent, okay." Naruto said happily.

So Temari was left there, while everyone is doing their things. 'Why does Naruto have to d o this to me? I can do my own things.' she thought. Temari wanted to get up and make her tent, but her body just stayed put. 'My body isn't moving! Is it maybe because I'm actually tired or is it because Naruto-' she stopped her thinking when she finally realized what Naruto did to her just a while ago. She started blushing rapidly. 'He picked me up...by the waist.' she said in her head.

"Hey Temari." said a voice. Temari looked at the person who spoke, and it was Zumo. "Are you alright?"

"Yes Zumo. Why do you ask?"

"Well, I sensed something in you when I passed by. It felt like you were blushing or something?"

She turned around quickly in embarrassment, "Oh! Well, it's because it's kind of hot today,maybe that's why?" she said hoping he might by it, but she didn't know Zumo knew that she was lying. 'Maybe I should leave it alone.' Zumo thought. "Well that's a relief because I thought there was something wrong."

"No, nothing is wrong." she said ushering him to continue on forward, "But thank you for worrying."

"Yeah! No problem, but if you were wondering...Naruto was feeling the same way after he picked you up." He said smirking at her as he walked to his tent and left a dark-red Temari.

Temari was left speechless on what Zumo just said to her. She couldn't believe he saw or heard Naruto pick her up. 'Damn! That Naruto always has to do something rash without making sure no one was looking, but was he really feeling the same way?' she thought as she saw Naruto finish putting up her tent and walking towards her.

"Hey Temari, your tents done." Naruto said, as he wiped off his sweat with his jacket, "You can get inside now if you want. I'll be gathering supplies for dinner with Octo-pops."

"Ariagato Naruto." she said softly, looking down trying to hide her blush.

"Are you okay Temari?" he said as he noticed her looking down.

"It's nothing Naruto." she said a little bit louder than before, "I'm...just...I'm just tired, that's all. I'll go take a rest, Naruto. Don't worry about me, I'll be fine." and before she left,she kissed Naruto on the cheek then entered her tent.

Naruto stood there in pure shock at Temari's actions. 'She just...kissed...my...cheek.' he said in his head while touching his cheek.

"Oi! Naruto! Are we going to get the supplies or not!" yelled Killer Bee at Naruto.

"H-h-hai!" he said, walking towards his direction.

Killer Bee knew something was wrong, but instead he thought of asking about it later, where no one is around.

As Killer Bee and Naruto were searching for wood and other things they can use, Killer Bee started his questions. "Oi Naruto!" he said, "What was wrong with you just a while ago?"

"Nothing was wrong. I was just...shocked." he said while remembering what Temari did to him before entering her tent.

Naruto didn't know he was blushing in front of Killer Bee. When Killer Bee saw his face turn red, he was going to a stance to stop Naruto, thinking that he was going into Kyubbi mode, but instead he saw that the rest of his skin wasn't turning red. 'Is he...blushing!? Is it maybe cause he's...g...g...GAY! Nah! Maybe it's...no...way. Him and Temari-' he thought. "Naruto?" he got his attention, "Are you and Temari...intimate?"

Naruto looked at him dumbfounded and in shock with a sweat dropping down his cheek. "...EEEEHHHHHH! NO! Where did you come to that conclusion!?" he yelled, making all the birds in the forest fly off.

"Well, you were really red. At first I thought there was danger around, but then you didn't turn into the Kyuubi. So, I then thought that maybe you were...'gay' since it's only me and you here alone, but also you were in love with the pink-haired kunoichi. Then that's where I came to the conclusion where you were probably intimate with the blonde-sand kunoichi: Temari." Killer Bee said trying to hold back his laughter.

Naruto was just shocked that Killer Bee said that. 'He actually thought I was GAY! What the hell!?' he thought. Killer Bee wasn't able to sustain his laughter, so he bursted out laughing. Naruto turned really red, 'Maybe I should ask him?' he thought in his head, but wasn't sure on how to ask him. "Hey Octo-pops, how many women have you known that they try to go out with you or so?" he asked.

Killer Bee stopped laughing, "Why you ask?"

"Cause there maybe someone else, besides Hinata, that is trying to give me hints or so?" he said, getting really uncomfortable.

Killer Bee knew what he was talking about, but he didn't know 'who' he was referring to. "Hmmm...about 26. There's a lot of girls in Konoha and my village that try to give me hints that they want to go out with them." Killer Bee said, while he was remembering what every girl did. He had a strip of blood coming out of his nose. "Hehehehe."

"Pervert!" Naruto said.

"Hey! You'll start to become one yourself when you have s-" Killer Bee was cut off.

"Don't you dare say the word!" he said trying to make him say something else.

"Well then. That's nice of you, shutting up a brother." Killer Bee clutching his heart in hurt, "So I'm just going to guess on names. Does it satrt with a...T" Killer Bee asked.

Naruto shuddered a bit. "Ahhh. So is it Tenten? Tsunade? Temari?" Killer Bee stopped when Naruto flinched at the name: Temari, "So it's the blonde-sand kunoichi. Well, she does seem to have a liking to you, but that's my perspective."

"You're jus-" Naruto was cut off by an explosion, "What was that?"

"It was at the camp."

Naruto went pale with fright and worry, 'Temari. Even though you're not my girlfriend, or whatever you call it, I still need to protect you from danger.' he thoguht. "We better hurry up then."

"Hai!" Killer Bee agreed and they both jumped to the trees.

'Kami! Please let Temari be okay.' he thought, 'I need to tell her how I feel before anything terrible can happen.'

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

BBBBBAAAAAMMMMM!

"Damn!: said a female blonde that's having trouble in a fight, "How did they find us!?". A sword came slashing down at the blonde, creating a dust storm around her and the attacker.

NAruto came just in time, and saw what just happened. "Temari!" he yelled. The dust was clearing up, he let out a sigh of relief on what he saw. Temari blocked the attack just in time with her battle fan. "Yeah!" Naruto cheered.

Temari smirked at Naruto, and looked back at the attacker. "Who are you?" she asked the one-handed, sword stylist. THe sword stylist grinned st her. "Hahaha!" he laughed maniacally, "You think I'll just give you my name! Ha! You have to be worthy to know it, and by the look of it...you aren't."

Temari pushed him back with a wind gust of wind. "Then I'll finish you here and now!" she said throwing the sword stylist a series of gusts.

Naruto looked around, "Hey Bee! Where's Zumo and Komo at?"

Killer Bee looked at Naruto, "They left to get water when we left!"

"Damn! They better hur-" he was cut off by a yell.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

Naruto turned to the source, and he didn't enjoy the sight. His eyes bulged out and only one word came out of his mouth, "Temari."
