Chapter 1

Naruto sighed as he stared out over the sandy expanse. He, along with the rest of Team 7 had been assigned to go meet with his bride to be at the Suna border. Neither party was to know who they were marrying until the met on the border dressed in the traditional robes. Naruto had decided whoever designed the abominations of design should be forced to wear them in the fucking desert, much like he was. "I mean goddamn who expects a drastic climate change so fricking quickly." Naruto moaned, wearing the black 7 layer monstrosity.

Kakashi looked up at his more difficult student. He honestly didn't know where to stand with the teen, one would assume the overly hostile blond hated everyone, especially the team he had been shackled to, in his words, but Kakashi had caught glimpses of one might call a nice personality underneath his bitchy demeanor. The prime examples of this would be during the wave mission where he risked his safety to take out Gato so his team wouldn't have to. When the blond came back, covered in a variety of unpleasant scents he had merely told the teacher he did what he had to so some kunoichi down the line wouldn't have to. The copy nin sighed as he glanced at Sakura and Sasuke, the former staring at the latter who was still smoothing out his new Chunnin vest, like he had been ever since he got it. Kakashi rubbed his forehead in exasperation, somewhere along the line he had gone seriously wrong with that boy, oh well.

"And when I get my hands on that bastard, even if it involves time travel or raising the dead I will force HIM to wear this.. this... THING in the GOD DAMN DESERT and keep him alive until my children's children's CHILDREN have deemed him fit to die!" Kakashi's lone eye flickered back to the ranting blond and sighed. It was going to be a long wait...

Sabaku no Temari was not having a good day. Well, more like a good week, and when Temari wasn't having a good day, no one else was either. "I can't believe this! What kind of stupid negotiation deal deal is this?"

Kankuro sighed, the whining had been dragging on for hours now and he was about to snap. He whirled on her, "LOOK! You did have a choice to say no! If this bothers you SOOO much why didn't you?"

Temari narrowed her eyes. "You know very well refusing such an order would have dishonored our family even more then it already has been recently." She crossed her arms and glared at her younger brother, who flinched under her teal eyed gaze. "And you, the cross dressing puppet boy, and Gaara the until recently crazed psychopath don't exactly help our family image. I'm doing what I can, so back off and shut up. I will rant if I goddamn want to. Am. I. Understood?"

The puppet user gulped. "Yes'm."

Gaara who been silently watching the proceedings shrugged off his sister's voice as she started to rant on yet again about the kind of guy she was probably being forced to marry. He smiled, not that anyone saw it, as he walked ahead of the group. He of course, did know who his sister was marrying. After all he had all these new feelings to look after his family to act on, so what kind of brother would he be if he didn't make sure his sister was marrying a good man? Of course his method in obtaining this information, storming the room holding the temporary council and threating to crush them into a ball the size of his fist unless they told him what he needed to know, was probably less then desirable. He wouldn't know it for another 6 months, but that single act would throw him to the top candidacy of the new Kazekage. Gaara tilted his head, thinking of his brother-in-law to be and smiled. He pondered on when would be a good time to ask a rematch...

Naruto sighed, his voice having finally given out a few minutes ago. Now he found himself lying on his back staring into the remarkably blue sky, wondering when in the seven burning hells, which he was convinced he was already in, would his bride to be show up. He blinked in confusion as a black silhouette flew over him, circling him for a while. The circling bird also caught the attention of his sensei Kakashi, who had also been staring into the sky. They both glanced at each other, then back to the bird as it slowly started to descend. A glint of recognition flashed in Naruto's eyes as the bird swooped in closer, and a slightly nervous trickle of sweat ran cold down his back.

For his part, as the bird came in closer, Kakashi wondered what Kiri message bird, a type of osprey summon commonly used by their ANBU, was coming in closer. He squinted his open eye, yes that was a message attached to it. He watched curiously as the bird landed on his blond student's shoulder. Naruto had a slightly guilty look on his face as he scratched the bird's head and took the note tied to it's leg. Kakashi stepped over, "Naruto..."

Naruto looked at his teacher, hearing the unspoken question. He shrugged innocently, "OK, so maybe I had more interaction with Zabuza and his apprentice after I killed Gato then I filled out in my report." He smirked and looked over the note, frowning a bit before sighing.

Kakashi raised his eyebrow, "Problems?"

"No, not really. Just confirmation of something. A time limit if you will..." He sighed again folding the note up and slipping it into the robes he was wearing. From the same fabric covered depths he withdrew a blank piece of paper and a pen. He started writing, got halfway down the page then stopped. He cocked his head to side and scrunched up his face before turning to Kakashi. "Ne, Kakashi-sensei... How does one go about inviting a pair of nuke-nins to a wedding?"

The copy nin groaned, why was he always asked the weirdest questions?

()()()()()()

Sasuke sighed, bored out of his little Uchiha mind as he watched Kakashi talk to his teammate, the blond one anyways, the pink haired ones shrill ranting about how awesome he was was still ringing in his ears. He looked back out into the desert, 'Kami, I hate these people. I mean, Sakura'd be nice enough if she SHUT THE HELL UP every so often, Kakashi... well he recognizes my greatness but he seems to be running short of things he's willing to teach me... Naruto... Ugh, it's like he goes out of his way to annoy me.' Which of course he did, but Sasuke has yet to clue in on that. 'Hmm, Orochimaru... I wonder... Should I take his offer? It's tempting... But what can he teach me Kakashi can't? After this ridiculous wedding business is over... I must fight Naruto, he beat Gaara when I couldn't... But I got promoted, so it was probably just fluke on his part... Still, that irritating nagging doubt in my mind. I will measure myself against the Dobe... I win, I'll stay in Konoha... After all he refused training from a Sannin... But what if he beats me? Pfft, like that's likely. Sasuke chuckled at that. Like the class Dobe could beat him. Really.. What use was a weak bloodline like shape shifting good for against the mighty Sharingan?

Arrogance is of course the greatest of blinders, what Sasuke failed to realize was that a solid 90% of Naruto's jutsu's were lethal, and since brutally murdering or maiming a teammate in a friendly spar was looked down on, Naruto never used them. But that's enough about broody McEmo pants. Back to the interesting people.

Miles away in Konoha Shikamaru sat staring at the clouds, half asleep.

Wrong person.

In the Suna group, who were little over an hour out of the meeting site, Temari had calmed down somewhat and was currently thinking about this new and quite unexpected twist in her life. She sighed and looked up into the sky squinting her eyes somewhat as she slipped into deep thought, her body on autopilot. Is that an osprey? The hell is that doing out here... Meh, nothing important I'm sure. She scrunched her face up a bit, Marriage... I'm only 16, almost 17, in retrospect it's not that surprising. I am the daughter of a Kage after all. She frowned and looked at her two younger siblings who had gotten in front of her and slumped her shoulders slightly. And I just started to patch things up with my brothers... What with Gaara not all, um, Gaara, anymore. Nice that, I was getting tired of cleaning up bloodstains. Kankuro... meh, he's the same as always. But dammit I'll miss them. She continued this particular train of thought for awhile, right up until they got within sight of the Konoha team. She raised an eyebrow making out blond, pink, black and silver hair. Oh Kami if I am stuck marrying that Uchiha I'll take my own life... She shuddered at the thought.

With the Konoha group, the only interesting thoughts going through Naruto's mind were, Please let her be hot. Please let her be hot. I can't deal with no ugly chick. He had his eyes closed as the mantra ran through his head. His eyes snapped open as Kakashi none to gently nudged him in the arm, signifying the arrival of the Suna delegation. He glanced at the Suna ninjas in front of him, smiling as he saw Gaara, mentally chuckling at Kankuro before his eyes finally rested, and stayed, on Temari. She was dressed in the traditional garb, same as he was, save that hers was pure white. He hair was still in its trademark four ponytail style, her piercing teal eyes eying him up as he was her. He noticed with n small amount of satisfaction that her demeanor relaxed slightly as her eyes met his. He glanced ever so briefly at the battle fan across her back allowing a slightly smirk, as she looked at his own, also on his back. Tradition demanded a specific greeting, but unfortunately for tradition, said greeting had been totally erased from his mind the second he saw his fiancé. "Oh thank Kami!" He gave out a deep sigh of relief before pumping a fist into the air.

Temari smirked, while Kakashi palmed his face, she to had a similar thought upon seeing the blond Uzumaki, though she managed not to vocalize it.

Naruto gave his fellow blond a toothy grin as he walked up and held out his hand. "There's some sort of official shit I should be saying but fuck that. They already got me dressed in this travesty to fashion. So I'm just gonna say high, you must be my fiancé."

Baki and Kakashi choked on the blatant disregard for tradition, and rules, while Sakura sighed in exasperation, Sasuke merely grunted, as he always does. Temari smirked and took Naruto's offered hand in a firm shake. "I most wholeheartedly agree." The two gave each other matching smiles as they shook hands.

This particular sight chilled Kankuro to the core, 'Oh God. There's two of them... Oh God what are their kids gonna be like?'

Gaara smiled and nodded, barely, at Naruto as he released Temari's hand. "Uzumaki." He said blandly.

Naruto looked from Temari to Gaara and grinned, widely. Without giving Gaara's sand a chance to respond he bowled over the smaller jinchuuriki in a flying glomp. "Gaaaarrrrraaaa!" The blond laughed as he gave the redhead a noogie, Naruto grinned, sitting on top of Gaara's gourd.

Gaara glanced up at Naruto, amusement far from being present on his facial features. The blond just grinned wider. "Uzumaki..." He said, his voice lowering slightly.

Everyone else had tensed up, but Naruto just smiled as his body shifted to that of his main female form, his- now her, long red hair falling over her shoulders. She looked down at the boy and gave him the best pouty face she could musted and slowly drew her finger across Gaara's cheek. "Does the big strong Gaara not want to give little old me a ride?" She said, blinking innocently at the end. She took the finger that had rubbed his cheek and sucked on it seductively, "Mmm... You taste delicious."

That was the word that broke Kankuro as the older boy fainted, a stream of blood gushing from his nose. Gaara froze up as his eyes rolled back and he slowly fell over to the side. Everyone else just stared. Naruto laughed as she jumped off the falling Gaara, shifting back into his male form. He reached up and re-tied his hair back into it's usual short ponytail. Temari just stared, "Are... Are you gay?"

Naruto raised an eyebrow as he finished with his hair, walking back over to her with the grace of a Hyuuga. He waved dismissively, "Nah. I just like screwing with people." He glanced back at the prone form of Gaara. "He looked like he needed to loosen up a bit." Naruto paused, his eyes drifted towards Kankuro. "Would've sworn he was playing for the other team though... Guess not."

Temari paused, then decided to just accept the fact her new fiancé was a little strange. She figured at least he was the fun kind of strange. "Nah he's not gay... Just destined to be alone." She said with a dismissive shrug.

Naruto laughed, "Good to know..." The pair smirked, then turned to the rest of the group. "Can we leave? I'd like to be back in Konoha as son as possible."

Kakashi sighed, "All right then follow me." And with that, the group was off towards Konoha.

()()()()()()

Nightfall, several hours from Konoha. "All right we can stop here for the night." Kakashi said to the group, he got a collective group of nods.

Both Naruto and Temari had changed from their robes into their more usual wear, Naruto was dressed in his standard knee length black kimono, with black drawstring martial arts pants underneath and a vivid orange obi around his waist. Temari was in almost the exact same outfit, save for her kimono was longer, and she wore a red obi. The pair stood back as the others made camp.

Temari glanced at her husband to be, "You don't have a tent?"

Naruto shrugged, "Just a sleeping bag, I prefer to sleep under the stars."

Temari nodded in silent agreement. She glanced at him, looking him up and down and smiled softly. "Nice outfit."

Naruto looked at her and smiled sheepishly, scratching the back of his head. "Thanks... Same to you." They both chuckled at that. Naruto grinned and looked down at the loose, deep sleeves that hid his hands. "I love this thing... Made it myself."

Temari raised an eyebrow at that. "Really? Why?"

Naruto shrugged, "I saw one similar at a store. But it didn't have the, hmm, shall we say extra features mine has."

"Oh? Do go on."

Naruto grinned, he so rarely got to talk about his hobbies. He rolled back one of the sleeves, "First off we have all the various storage seals, and a few weight seals I have in these. All I gotta do is 'poof' a kunai or shuriken into my hand. And the enemy generally doesn't notice to it's to late. But the best part is this custom made fabric, its layered, silk on the inside, then a special chakra weave fabric, of my own design, on the inside. That fabric cause it to harden in that area against impacts. Won't stop a kunai or sword, but it'll slow it down." He paused and rubbed his shoulders at the slight phantom pain, "But it'll stop senbon. Which is pretty much the reason I made it, after a fight I had against this guy who used senbon needles to brutal accuracy. Couldn't use my arm for a day." He stopped, then grinned again. "And the outer layer is silk again. Mostly cause silk looks great, and wearing it gets you into some places easier then normal."

Temari nodded, impressed with the younger blond in front of her. "You make the fabric yourself? How do you pull that off?"

Naruto smiled widely, "I have a deal with the Aburames to get silk harvested from a certain type of Kikai bug they use. I mix that with a few special chakra conducive plants I raise, little bit of seal work and a ton of Kage Bunshin to do the actual labor for me and presto, kick ass chakra fabric."

Temari laughed, then tilted her head thoughtfully. "You had better be making me something from that."

Naruto laughed, "Just tell me what you want, and I'll measure you out when we get to Konoha."

Temari nodded, and the two spent the next couple hours in conversation, Naruto asking about Suna and Temari about Konoha, before they drifted asleep leaning back on a log, with Temari's head on Naruto's shoulder, and his resting on the top of her head.

Naruto awoke to the flash of a camera. He groaned and flickered his eyes open to see that cursed eye smile of Kakashi's, who was holding a camera in his hands. Naruto glared at him and mouthed 'I'll get you and your little dog to.'

The copy nin laughed as Temari woke up, slowly blinking as she took in the unfamiliar surroundings, she looked up at her pillow and felt her face flush slightly before she got up and stretched, the sounds of a few bones popping. Naruto smiled lazily as he cracked his own back, stretching a bit to loosen up his body. A few minutes later the camp was packed up, and the group once more on the move.

Hours later, an hour outside Konoha, the group slowed their pace slightly and took to walking on the main road. A few minutes of walking and a group of bandits burst from the forest in front of them. The leader, a large almost 7 foot tall man, heavily scarred and seemingly had no neck, grinned as he stepped forward, twirling a large dagger in his hands. "This is how it's gonna work, your gonna give us everything you own, and that pretty blond girl there, and me might let you live."

The group of ninjas looked at each other, then turned back to the bandits. Naruto raised his eyebrow and slowly moved his hand towards his fan when he felt someone grip it. He looked over to see Temari holding him back, she smiled sweetly at him, "Let me deal with this... I have something new I wanna try." Naruto merely nodded, and bowed letting her step forward.

The blond wind mistress smiled at the bandits, the group of them giggling perversely at her, believing she was about to offer herself up. She quickly hardened her gaze and with a quick swipe drew her battle fan, "Kuchiyose: Kirikiri Mai!"

Naruto's jaw dropped as she swung her fan, and with a burst of wind and a puff of smoke what appeared to be a one eyed weasel riding a scythe flew out and for lack of a better term, chunked the group of bandits. Heads, limbs and bloody gore spraying everywhere. He stared at the scene, then back to Temari who stood, leaning on her fan nodding her head with a smile at the fact her jutsu worked, then back to the gore. Two thoughts ran through his mind. 'Dear Kami, and here I thought summons were overrated. I have GOT to learn how to do that. I... I... I think I'm in love. He slowly turned his head towards his fellow blond. "Marry me?"

Temari looked at him and laughed. "Sure."

Meanwhile, Sakura turned away and vomited and Sasuke... well, he was trying to figure out a way to force her to teach him how to do that. Kakashi sighed, and spat out a quick fire jutsu, burning the bodies. "All right... Let's get back already."

The group nodded and left the smoldering 'battle scene' behind. A little under an hour later they were crossing into the Konohagakure gates, Naruto giving a quick nod at the ever present Chunnin guards Izumo and Kotetsu. They stopped the group briefly checking their papers before letting them through. As Naruto passed Izumo grinned, "So that's the bride to be huh Naruto?"

Naruto grinned at the pair, he often played poker with the two, along with a group of Tokubetsu Jonins. "Yup, that's her."

The Chunnin pair nodded, "Not bad man."

Naruto paused as he watched Temari from behind walking away and grinned. "Ya got that right. We still on for Friday?"

"Yup... Your place right?" Kotetsu asked, getting a nod from the teen. "All right, Aoba and Raidou are bringing the food."

Naruto nodded, "Alright see you all then." He waved at them as he ran off after his fiancé.

The two Chunnin turned back around and sighed. Izumo grinned a bit, "Man... Lucky brat. Though I wonder, isn't she that Gaara kid's sister."

Kotetsu nodded, "yeah I think so."

Izumo let out a long whistle, "I bet he better treat her well then. Not that he wouldn't anyways, good kid that one." His partner nodded sagely. "Gonna have blonder then blond kids though." They both laughed at that one, though anything is funny after 6 hours of guard duty.

A/N: Well, that took me a long ass time to write. Sorry about that guys, kinda blocked on what I wanted to do... In the course of writing this I decided on about 3 different summons for Naruto (Kept changing my mind) But I figure I've got 2 ideas combined, and it works. That'll be brought out in a chapter or two... I also have some fun ideas for Haku and Zabuza... hehe...

So some stat sharage for you... For the first chapter of this story I got 63 reviews. Sixty frickin three. I am floored, I want to thank all you guys reading and taking the time to review. You rock. I could grab the other stats too but they're all high (for me anyways). Using my powers of epic deduction... I'm guessing this is the current fav of my stories... So I'll try to work on it a bit more. But next should be a Hydra update.... whenever... I have my cousin coming to visit in a couple weeks, I;ll try to finish it before then.
