Hey, how are you doing? Guess what? I'm in space. Comets, stars, galaxies, Orion. Space is too big, too big. I'm back to earth. Thanks to all my followers and favourites for buying me space tickets. To chapter 33!

Naruto and Mia were in Mia's hideout getting ready to leave. Naruto couldn't help but to spare glances at Mia while they got ready. She noticed the glances he gave, but didn't make it noticeable. She could not believe that she let Naruto convince her to go to the village that turned her village down. Once she got packed she stared at Naruto as she passed him. Naruto wished everything will go according to plan.

He put his hand on Mia's shoulder and transported the two of them to his friends. They appeared at the gate where everyone waited for them. When Mia appeared Neji and Sasuke prepared to attack, but Naruto stopped them. He told them what happened and, even though they didn't trust her completely, they allowed her to come along. Kokoa instantly appeared on Naruto's back getting a grin from her lover.

Mia looked away from them feeling depressed. An arm was thrown over her shoulders and she blushed to see the bright and comforting face of Naruto. They began their trek back to Konoha through the hot desert. Along the way Kokoa told Naruto how they thought he died and didn't think he would return to himself. Naruto gave an annoyed stare at Sasuke and Neji. They turned their heads whistling as if they didn't know what Kokoa was talking about.

Every once in a while seeing the group tease and pick on each other a smile graced her face. She felt at ease with them, but she knew she would tense up when they got to the Leaf Village. But for now she'll try to enjoy being with them. She closed her eyes briefly and hearing someone call her name she turned to where it came from.

"So Mia, you tried to steal my Naru-kun. I really don't appreciate that."

"Of course you wouldn't. All I wanted was the last survivors of our clan to be together."

"Wait, you're an Uzumaki?!" everyone except Naruto shouted.

"Well I did say last survivors of our clan, didn't I?"

"No need to get full of yourself," Sasuke inserted.

"I always thought that Sasuke would be the last person to say that," Naruto included.

"What do you mean by that Uzumaki?"

"Got a problem with it Uchiha?" Naruto and Mia answered.

"You two are truly both from the same clan," Neji said.

"Well sorry for not being like you Hyuuga," Mia added.

Their talk shortened the time it took to the forest. Naruto closed his eyes and let out a sigh feeling the cool air hit his face. Sasuke tapped Naruto's arm and nodded at the trees. He smirked and nodded back before leaping into the trees with Sasuke. Everyone chased them telling them to wait, but in return they just got smiles from them. Mia smiled feeling like she wasn't alone anymore. For the first time she actually opened up to letting these people into her life.

They stopped at the gate and Naruto starred at Mia and could tell she was a little tense. He walked to her and led her inside holding her hand. They all travelled inside not that far behind. With every step she took Naruto could swear her grip got tighter. She looked around the village as it she was scanning it. Seeing people wave to Naruto, greeting him, and children running up to him just to make contact with him got her wondering whether they were in the right village.

She remembered Naruto telling her how bad the village used to treat him and this was the complete opposite. They reached the Hokage Mansion and knocked on Tsunade's door. Getting invitation to come in he opened the door. Tsunade greeted them with a warm and welcoming smile. Mia was shocked to see a new Hokage, but even more surprised to see it was a woman. Maybe things have changed from back then.

"Hey baa-chan. How did you handle yourself while we were gone?"

"Well besides the fact that I wanted to pound some people, I handled myself well. But onto a more serious matter, I take it that you've dealt with the matter in Suna?"

"Yes we did. In fact she's right here."

Tsunade looked on the side of Naruto to see a girl standing there. "Naruto who is this?"

"Long story short Suna's problem, and my clan member. Before you say 'you're an Uzumaki?!' yes she is."

"Ok then. Looks like we might have two heroes in Konoha. What is your name?"

Naruto touched her with his elbow letting her know to speak up. "Mia Uzumaki."

"So do you wish to live here Ms. Uzumaki?"

"I don't know. Could I give you an answer a little later?"

"Sure that's just fine. All of you can leave, but Kokoa stay here."

Everyone went outside her office. Neji and Sasuke went about their business while Naruto and Mia waited for her outside the Hokage Mansion. Tsunade related to her about her 'visitors' and Kokoa left the office smiling. When she got outside she told them that she had to find some people. With that she waved goodbye and vanished. Naruto led Mia around the village and she saw fully how they changed. At their last stop Naruto took her to his favourite place.

"Hey Mia do you like ramen?"

"What's ramen?"

Naruto's heart nearly shattered at her statement. "Teuchi could you hook up the last two Uzumaki members up?"

"Sure thing Naruto."

After a couple minutes the two Uzumaki got their meal. Naruto stared at Mia making her feel uncomfortable. He urged her to eat it and she fell into temptation. She took a slurp and stayed in the same place for couple seconds. She then devoured all the contents in the matter of seconds. She turned to Naruto and saw her eyeballing his ramen. Without question she launched after it and took a hold of the bowl. Naruto quickly grabbed it on the other side.

"Mia it's my ramen! Get your own!"

"It wouldn't be yours for long!"

"You ate yours already! Let me enjoy mines!"

"Not until I'm finished eating this!"

"Teuchi don't just stand there, help me out!"

With a laugh seeing the Uzumaki fight over a bowl he set a next bowl in front of Mia. She unlatched Naruto's bowl and dove into the other bowl. Naruto shook his head smiling as he watched Mia. Before she could grab his bowl again Naruto ate his. Naruto paid and left with Mia on his shoulder reaching out to Ichiraku's. She pouted at Naruto for taking her away from her wonderland. He smiled inwardly remembering he was just like that when he first tasted ramen.

-Kokoa POV-

She searched around the village trying to find these people. Soon a very familiar power came her way. She dashed off in that direction and saw a female with long silver hair that she remembered too well. She smiled and ran at the person. She jumped onto the person's back and wrapped her arms around the person's neck. She then feels four other presences behind her. When she looked they all greeted her with a smile.

"Kokoa get off my back."

"Not yet. I just want to say sorry for what I did. Could you ever forgive me big sister?"

"That's why I came all the way from our world. I wanted to find you."

"And all of us. It wasn't same without you there Kokoa."

"Tsukune, you all shouldn't have come all the way here for me."

"Why not?"

"This really means a lot. Thanks guys."

"So are you coming back with us?"

"I can't say. I'm having too much fun here."

"As long as you're happy," Moka said.

Kokoa knew now the lengths they would go for her. But now she was faced with a difficult decision. If she goes with them she might not see Naruto again, but if not who knows if she'll see her sister again and then either way she might not see Naruto again.

What will Kokoa choose? How will they react to her decision? What will happen between Naruto and Mia? Find out in the next issue of Lover from another Dimension.
