"You may leave now. I will have someone put him on the stone." Tsunade spun in her chair to face away from them, her heart ached. The three nodded and left to break the news to Naruto's friends.

Gasps for breathes echoed the small cave as a young girl dragged the lifeless body, their clothes clung to their body. She stared down at Naruto, lifting his lids to see his eyes were empty, barely alive.
"Gotta keep you alive." She stripped clothes from him and pulled out a blanket from a bag she carried, covering him. She dried his hair and lit a fire, holding the boy close, offering her body heat. "Live boy, live."

"Oi! Boy! Get over here!" The blonde looked toward the voice to see his father yelling from his home in the village hidden in the rain.
"Yes father!" He slid to a stop in front of him, his dark clothing brought out his deep blue eyes. He was slightly huffing and puffing as he used his chakra to do his chores, which wasn't soo bad.
"Go get some firewood. Some ninjas from other nations are coming and if they decide to stay here at our wonderful Inn, we want them to be comfy!" His voice was filled with excitement. The young child, well young teen knew his father loved company, especially from other nations. He nodded and vanished toward the nearest forest, a tiny clang only left. His leaf headband bounced around on his left leg, reminding of his old life, the one he can not remember.
When he awoke next to his sister a year ago he lost all memory, but once he stared into the shiny metal with his old home symbol he remembered his jutsu, and name. Though now he goes by Naru, since he wants to be a new person. He hopped through the trees, allowing the wind to blow through his hair, images flashed through his head, but they were blurred, not allowing him to remember.
"Onii-chan!" A loud squeal reached his ears, along with the floor as his sister plowed him to the forest floor, straddling his hips. She wasn't even five years old, yet she was able to push him to the ground. He groaned, feeling his body fill with pain since she landed on the wrong spot.
"Ugh Kiki, why don't you go bug Naomi?" He groaned out, only to see a big smile spread on her lips.
"But Naomi-chan is here to!" Kiki giggled out. She was pretty for such a young age, she had bright green eyes that seem to sparkle in any light, and her jet black hair reached her shoulders, bangs hung to the sides. Her hand rose to point toward a tree where the girl who saved him walked out. Her eyes were a dark onyx that were filled with mix emotions, she had the same color hair as Kiki cept her bangs curved to the side and her hair was barely past her ears. She enjoyed her short hair, helped her out on her missions.
"Naru-kun, father is expecting you to hurry." Her voice was soft and cold, she was still scared for him. The day Naru fell she watched, cared for him, hoping life to be sucked back into him. She was abandoned then, barely with anyone since she lost her way, she was two years younger then him.
"Oh yes Naomi, I will be done soon!" Naru smiled out, feeling Kiki only to jump on him, making him cringe in pain, since his little friend was being crushed under the weight. "Nyah!" He gripped onto the girl's shoulders, "Don't jump there, remember what father said."
"Oh! I'm sorry Onii-chan!!!" She hopped off him and picked up some wood, "I shall help you Onii-chan! Naomi-chan! Why don't you help!" Naomi smiled softly and nodded
"Alright Kiki."
"Welcome back kids!" Their mother welcomed them, her blonde hair and green eyes shone, seeing them alive and well.
"Mommy! I got Onii-chan to the ground again! I'm gonna be a great ninja! Just like Naomi-chan!" Kiki pronounced, hopping into her mother's arms.
"Ah Kiki, I know your gonna be a great ninja, you'll be the best one in the entire village, no the world." Kiki giggled and buried her head into her chest. "Naomi, Naru, go set up some rooms, we have some guests coming tonight, we have confirmed it." The two nodded as they gathered some wood and walked up to the rooms.
"Mother! How many rooms!" Naru yelled from above, seeing his mother hold up 4 rooms.
"1 for 2 sensei's, 1 for the girls, 2 for the boys!" The two teens nodded in supplies, getting all the necessary things done.
"Why do we have to be the only Inn in town." Naomi grumbled out, plopping down on one of the beds. "Why don't I have a mission!"
"Because your sensei is hanging with his boyfriend." Naru yawned out, a slight smile on his face. He loved her sensei, he was the best dude to be friend's with, though him being gay scared him just a lil bit.
"Yeah, right. I forgot about that." She sighed, rubbing her head slightly, "Good thing, don't have to worry about him hitting on me like the last one."
"Last one?"
"Oh, it was before I found your sorry ass Naru." She laughed out, only for him to glare. "I'm sorry Naru, but its true!"
"How??? I was unconscious!" He snapped, he hated how Naomi did this to him, teased him about being knocked out.
"So….you fell off from that small cliff. How pathetic." A slight smirk ran across her lips as Naru pulled out a kunai.
"You better run little girl." Naomi laughed as she hopped through the window, Naru close behind. His eyes became slits and a dark red, his whiskers thicken as he ran. He remembered about Kyuubi, mostly because she talked to him, refreshing some of his memory. He used some of the fox's chakra, putting it to his feet, allowing his speed to increase, catching the girl. "Got you."
"You cheated!" She laughed out, pointing to his eyes that were fading back to their normal pool blue.
"No one ever made rules about me using my stored chakra fox." He slowly got off of her as voice began to increase.
"You never listen to me! Why don't you ever listen!" They turned their heads to see a group of ninjas walking forth. They both smiled and ran back to the Inn, laughing.
