Days of past forgotten
After the treaty between man and beast, things gradually began to change in Konoha. For one thing, there seemed to be more foxes in the area. The Nin were concerned, but ignored it for the most part. Naruto was glad that he now had a semi-normal family, yet something seemed to be missing!
It soon became clear to Naruto what his new life was missing. Respect from the villagers would never happen until Kitsune and Ninjas learned to co-exist. That day would a long time coming. But at least now he had someone to share his pain.
That is, until Sasuke and Naruto hit their teenage years!!! Kite did his best to avoid both of them until the growth spurt ended. He did NOT want to be near two moody and spiteful teens! He loved both of them, but even he has his limits!!
This problem escalated when Naruto stole the Sacred Scroll after being fooled by Mizuki. He learned that Iruka-sensei had never thought of him as a freak or a monster. Though he did pay for his decision to actually let Naruto graduate this time. He forgot the most important thing about Naruto's eating habits…
Never treat Naruto to Ramen!! You'll end up with an empty purse!
Still, actually catching Sasuke off guard during a few lunch breaks was amusing. Though it seriously pissed him off every time Naruto did it. (Kite had a hell of a time trying not to laugh Naruto glued Sasuke several times to various places! Now that was hilarious!)
Kite continued his studies and even taught several classes for the Med Nin. He was actually getting bored when he finally got a mission for a change that didn't have a Jonin to supervise him! His job was to do reconnaissance on a gang that was harassing travelers. They would have been taken care of earlier, but it soon became clear to Kite that these thugs weren't ordinary men at all! Nearly every single one of them was an ex-ninja!
"Huh. Various ninja from different villages are actually working together without killing each other. Now that is a rare sight!"
Kite went back to Konoha for a report. The Hokage was worried and wanted Kite and a various mix of Fox and Nin to dispatch the gang. There were a few problems, but Kite barely managed to keep the misfit group intact!
After they infiltrated the gang, they systematically killed or arrested the Nin gang. Kite healed everyone, and the Ninjas actually thanked the Kitsune clan for the support. This was the turning point everyone had hoped for.
Though Kite didn't exactly do much when he went back to Konoha only to get a mission with Team 7. This had both moody teens in it!
(This is where it merges with the Kitsune Uchiha! I hope you enjoyed the fanfic!)
