Author Note: Alright loyal readers, I've come with a note. More SasuNaru, and Tsunade being such a great mother. Haha. Also, at the end of this, if you go omg. I've done my job.

Also, Thank you Kodoku na Oujo. Why you ask me? Because she is so very awesome. I mean, I met her and now we talk all the time. Psh. Mhm. Plus she's been a faithful reviewer and always gives me a few words of praise to keep me going with this. Thank you dearly.

Annnnd, fluffylover82192. Your review made me laugh, but in a good way. To bad there always isn't a play by play right? Ha.

"Captain Hyuuga, do you have a moment?" Hinata asked quietly as she peeked inside the small room of an office her leader head.

Neji sat behind a large oak desk in one corner, facing the door. He was hunched over a few papers, reading them in the silence. However, he glanced up. "Of course Hinata, though stop calling me captain. We're cousins, but related none the less." He motioned for her to take a seat with a pale hand, smiling lightly.

"Um, Yes Capt- I mean, Neji." She to smiled with fondness and seated herself across from her relative. "You see, about the Uzumaki case. I was looking back into files for Mr. Jiraiya Uzumaki and came across a victims report. Apparently his man had got in the line of fire during a bank robbery, and his sister reported the incident to be taken to a court, though charges were dropped."

"Yes, but what's that have to do with the case?" Neji questioned, confusion showing clearly on his face. Hinata shook her head lightly.

"Let me finish, you see, I was thinking about it. It's clear that this person, or even people don't really want to hurt Mr. Uzumaki; they want Naruto. It's my conclusion that they have also figured out that Naruto means more to him then anything in the world. Why else would the target him?" Hinata paused for a moment, laying a folder onto the table and turning it to face her cousin. It was another news paper article; Naruto and Jiraiya standing side by side in the black and white photo. "This was taken when Naruto brought in the murderer rapist that was on the loose. Remember all the commotion it brought?"

Neji stiffened, although nodded. "Of course I remember, it was the day Sasuke lost his partner, it was the day we lost Tenten." He smiled sadly at the memory of his girlfriend and pushed it aside.

"I know, I'm sorry again Neji. It wasn't your fault, and it wasn't Sasuke's. You both need to leave it behind." She murmured, placing a gentle hand on top of his in comfort.

"I know, thank you Hinata. But continue, what about it?" Pale eyes looked down to the paper on his desk, pulling his hand from his cousins to pick it up.

Hinata smiled, but continued. "There are some quotes from Mr. Uzumaki about his son. He states Naruto is the one man that has always done the right thing, he is the most important part of his life. Not only that, but he does on to say that he is extremely proud and could not ask for a better son. He is an honorable person."

"Huh. I see what your saying. Someone that knew the victim might have saw this and turned their plan of revenge on his son. What better way to get to a father, right?"

"Exactly."

Neji stood up abruptly, still carrying the paper. "Call the others in, I want a meeting in an hour." He maneuvered around his desk and over to the front door, twisting the handle. Though he paused, looking back. "Do we know the victims name?"

"I have it written down somewhere, I'll get it to you." The woman smiled as she to stood.

"Thanks Hinata." He exited the room moments later.

"I win again, moron." Sasuke Uchiha smirked from his position in front of Naruto. Both were on the small hospital bed, cramped together with a tiny meal table propped between them. Sasuke's legs were even thrown over Naruto's to ensure they both fit.

The blonde sighed and leaned backward into the uncomfortably mattress. "Dammit, that's the sixth time. Your pretty good at this bastard, play often?" Naruto smiled and let one hand drop to the ravens knee, although the slight tint to the mans face proved it didn't go unnoticed.

"Yeah, sometimes, but not with an idiot like you."

Suddenly the door to his room was pushed open, only to reveal a purple clad nurse smiling brightly. "Well hello Mr. Uzumaki. How are you feeling?" She bustled over to the pair just as Sasuke began to climb off. "No, no, your fine young man, I'm just checking in." Given the okay he stayed, leaning backward onto the palms of his hands.

"Now, still hurting dear?" She questioned, placing a hand on the other mans head. "Oh my, you feel a little warm."

Naruto could only think how she reminded him of his mother when he was sick. "No, not anymore. The new meds are working wonders and I'm got even going into lala land." He looked to Sasuke, fingers brushing his clothed knee cap.

"Yes, I can tell. Which is a great thing. Anywho, I'll leave you to alone. Call me if you need anything at all dear."

"Thanks Ms. Kumiko." With that she closed the door behind herself; the room settling into silence.

Sasuke lazily stared at the blonde before him who was still picking at the pants he had on, smirking at leisure. Honestly he didn't mind the muteness between them, nor that Naruto kept touching him. In all truth, he kind of liked it; the way when their eyes met Naruto got that smile.

"Y'know, I thought staying in the hospital would be a little more boring." The smaller boy stated, letting beautiful blue eyes close. He was relaxing, humming lightly under his breath.

The Uchiha glanced at the door as it was soundlessly opened again, only to reveal Sakura looking in. Slowly she pushed it the rest of the way, both parents following her. Even so, he didn't bother to move since his mother had already given him full permission to date her son, so he didn't see a motive for her to kill him because of their position. Though it wasn't that bad anyway.

"Well, what do we have here?" Tsunade smiled, flipping one of her long blonde ponytails over her shoulder. "Honestly, we leave for an hour and you make a move on him."

"Shut up, Mom." Naruto was tinting a pretty little shade of red.

Tsunade smirked, patting the top of Sasuke's head gently. "Now Naruto, don't get so red. Sasuke here is a good man, really, we all approve. You'd look so cute together too." The raven growled lightly, his prefect hair becoming messed.

"As much as I love the positive attitude of a relationship, I believe you're going to put him into a coma from embarrassment." Sasuke stated matter of factly when the blonde before him starting biting his lips and looking every where but his family. Clearly he was looking for a way out, but he was not only pinned under Sasuke's legs, but also wasn't allowed to leave the bed yet. "And I don't think the hospital staff would appreciate that."

"Ugh, shut up! You guys suck." The blonde mumbled, crossing arms over his chest. It went unnoticed by everyone, except Sasuke when he winced.

"You know we only love you hunny." Tsunade grabbed her chair from the end of the bed and moved it over to Sakura's side, only because she didn't want to be staring at the ravens back. "So, anyway, how are you feeling?"

Jiraiya followed her to leaning against the window seal behind her, crossing one ankle over the other one; arms crossed lazily across hiss chest. "Yeah, you gotta get in better shape to have sex. Otherwise it's gonna suck."

"Pervert." The blonde stuck his tongue out at the man. "I'm fine, thanks for asking. But you know what? Stay out of my love life before you scare him," He paused, pointing at Sasuke. "Away."

Sasuke just leaned back onto his palms. "I find it amusing."

"You're only giving them permission to continue. Do you realize that?" Sakura suddenly popped into the conversation, smirking lightly as she looked at the Uchiha. Obviously her brother knew how to pick them, because she would totally go for the Uchiha any day.

However he only shrugged and replied. "They're going to anyway."

Naruto rolled his eyes, huffing. "I need a new family, and a new partner."

"So, what's so important that we just had to get down here right away?" Kiba Inuzuka asked, mouth opening in a loud yawn as the words faded out. He had been awoke by Hinata's phone call and wasn't to happy about it. Even Akamaru was curled into a tight ball at his feet, catching up on the missed hours of resting.

The few people of the room didn't seem much better, except for Neji who was wide awake. Ino was half asleep in her chair, leaning over onto her husbands shoulder who also had his eyes closed. Clearly both had also been awoken.

"Hinata found some more information on the case." Neji informed boredly, leaning back in his chair with a random magazine he found laying around. He really wasn't one for 'Family Circle', but it was better then just sitting. "She went to check something. Give her a minute."

As if she heard, the purple haired girl slipped into the room with another file folder, quietly taking her seat next to her boyfriends. She placed a kiss on his cheek in greeting and turned forward. "Alright. So, has Neji told you anything?"

"No, we've been waiting for you." Ino mumbled as she opened her eyes slowly, moving to sit up with a rather large yawn.

Hinata smiled at the mother to be and nodded. "Alright then." From there she began to explain everything she had told to Neji; relaying every detail she had. Soon they to were joining into the conversation.

"That makes sense. That would give them a motive right? So now all we have to do is find out who in the world could want the revenge." Ino stated, shuffling through a couple papers before her.

"Yeah, what about this guys sister? Her report was dismissed by the court." Shikamaru added lightly, leaning to the side to look at what his wife was. He might have been lazy, but Naruto was a personal friend so he might as well help.

Kiba nodded an affirmative, grin in place. "Oh, yeah. That would be a prefect suspect."

"Hm, or his brother." Hinata stated, gaining the attention of everyone.

"He's got a brother too?" asked Ino and the pale girl nodded. "Well, guess we've got a start. Hey, by the way. This guy, what's his name?"

Neji looked up in interest, watching his cousin delicately work through the papers in her file folder. "Um, let me see." she murmured in thought. Moments later she picked one of the white sheets and pulled it out.

"Well?" Kiba was not a patient person.

"He's name is Kankuro Sabaku."
