One Month Later
Naruto came out of his room with a smile on his face as he was ready for another day of training with Bee and Yugito. Naruto had gotten used to life in Kumo and could honestly say that Kumo was much better than Konoha ever was. Naruto's was much liked by most of Kumo as the blond always brought a smile to people's faces. Like Bee and Yugito, Naruto didn't attend the academy so it was up to Bee and Yugito to help him with his own studies and training. Naruto grimaced as he remembered that Yugito was a strict person when it came to train. Two weeks ago, Naruto could say that he had been put through hell with Yugito's training. Yugito had him go through so many physical exercises that he couldn't lift his arms for the first three days. Naruto however, never complained as he found Yugito's softer side when they weren't training. Naruto and Yugito became closer over the few weeks as Yugito managed to teach Naruto about what chakra was along with giving him his first jutsu. Bee gave Naruto some chakra paper to find out his affinity. To their shock, Naruto had an affinity for fuuton, raiton and katon which made things perfect for them. Yugito decided to teach Naruto his first katon jutsu which involved making multiple fire cats and firing them at enemies. Naruto managed to make an adaptation of it and decided to make foxes instead of cats out of some kind of respect for Kyuubi.
Naruto and Kyuubi also got closer as Kyuubi found Naruto entertaining in more ways than one. For Kyuubi, Naruto was certainly the best way to pass the time while being in a cage. Kyuubi managed to teach Naruto the kage bunshin jutsu since she felt he earned it for forgiving her. Needless to say, when Yugito found out about it...Naruto could almost hate Kyuubi for giving him the damned jutsu.
Naruto walked from his room to the shower door and knocked so as not to have a repeat of the last time to which Naruto and Yugito couldn't stare at each other for a whole day.
"Yugito-chan are you in there?" Naruto asked. Silence reigned in the bathroom as Naruto gulped and twisted the handle on the door. Naruto opened the door and looked around to see no one inside and sighed as he took off his clothes. Naruto grabbed a towel and stepped into the shower. Naruto's had become slightly taller thanks to his training and his body grew more defined. Muscles started to be evident, but not too much so. Naruto allowed the warm water to wash off his body as he scrubbed his blond hair. Naruto stayed in the warm water for about ten minutes, then left and went back to his room. Naruto wore a dark red muscle shirt with some tight black jeans as he strapped the two swords, that Bee bought him, on his back. Naruto looked into mirror and nodded with an approving grin as he left his room. Naruto came into the kitchen to see Yugito at the table with a bowl of soup and rice along with a plate of fish. Naruto found it weird that Yugito could like fish so much, but decided to think it had something to do with Nibi being a cat. Naruto sat down to his breakfast and gave a small smile to Yugito.
"Good morning Yugito-chan," Naruto said to her. Yugito looked up from her food and smiled as she set the food down on the table.
"Good morning Naruto-kun. Are you ready to continue your training?" Yugito asked him. Naruto nodded with a smile as he took his chopsticks and ate his breakfast with Yugito in silence. Both finished their dishes rather quickly as they put both their dishes in the sink and left. Naruto decided to do his usual and ran a few laps around the hours while Yugito did some stretches. Naruto noticed one very weird position she was in as he wondered how her body could be that flexible.
"It's one of the benefits of being the Nibi jinchuuriki," Kyuubi said deciding to include herself in Naruto's thoughts.
"Ahh good morning Kyuubi-chan. So that's why she can do that. It looks painful," Naruto said to which Kyuubi laughed.
"For other people it would be painful. Those aren't stretches that a normal human can do," Kyuubi told him. Naruto nodded as he continued to run, oblivious to the conversation Yugito was having with her own tenant.
"I'm telling you Kitten, you should take him now before any other girls try to get him. You can't lose such a stunning young man Kitten," Nibi said as Yugito rolled her eyes in frustration and annoyance. Yugito tried to ignore her tenant, but having Nibi connected to her thoughts wasn't the best of ideas.
"Nibi, leave me alone. Why are you trying to set me up with Naruto-kun? I'm eight years older than him. You seem to be quite into my love life lately," Yugito thought as Nibi twirled around her cage in laughter at Yugito's words which made the blond woman raise an eyebrow as she wondered what was so funny.
"What love life Kitten? You haven't been interested in any guy that has approached you. Your the one who's quite popular with the guys, yet your too stubborn. As far as I'm concerned, Naruto-kun's the only one you've let get close to you since Bee and Raikage," Nibi said as if she was trying to make a point to which she was. Yugito sighed as she ended her stretching and got down on the ground to do some sit-ups.
"We're not discussing this Nibi. Besides I don't think Naruto-kun would like me anyway," Yugito said as she huffed to finish her warm-up sit, completely oblivious to Nibi's devious smile.
"Really? Because I've noticed him stealing a few glances at you over the past few weeks. He was even looking at you a few minutes ago," Nibi said which caused Yugito to suddenly stop in mid rise of her sit-up. Yugito took a glance to her left to see Naruto doing some push-ups, but for some reason his eyes weren't looking at the ground. More like they were trying to avoid hers. Yugito gave a slight blush as Nibi rolled around in her cage with a laugh. Yugito stopped her sit-ups and walked over to Naruto as the blond finished his set and sat on the ground. Yugito sat next to Naruto and stole a glance at him as she decided to start the training.
"Alright then Naruto-kun, let's with you going over some chakra control exercises. You are going to climb this mountain top using nothing, but your chakra. I want you to keep this up until Bee arrives," Yugito said to him. Naruto nodded as he applied chakra to his feet and ran at the mountain. Yugito decided to do that same as she followed after Naruto. Yugito ran up the mountain with a smile on her face as she passed Naruto who gasped at her speed.
"No fair Yugito-chan," Naruto yelled which caused Yugito to turn her head while continuing to run.
"Life's not fair Naruto-kun," Yugito yelled back to him. Naruto gave a hidden smirk across his face s he formed a simple handsign.
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu," Naruto yelled as eight clones came into existence. All the clones smirked as one of them grabbed the real Naruto's feet. All the clones continued to grab the other's feet until the last one came as he twirled them all. Yugito turned her head and gasped as she saw seven Narutos skyrocket up to her. Naruto's eyes met Yugito's eyes for a split second, but he passed her as the other six came in front of her.
"It seems life is fairer to me than you Yugito-chan," Naruto said as he disappeared into the clouds. Yugito narrowed her eyes with a slight grin as she pumped more chakra into her feet and sprinted off.
Naruto was feeling good as the wind brushed his face. Naruto planted his feet back onto the mountain and ran, but gasped as he slowly slid back down. Naruto noticed that the mountain was steeper than before and had to be careful. Naruto slowly walked up the steep mountain side and could only wonder how far he had gone. Naruto then made the mistake of looking down and dropped his jaw as he saw how small Yugito's house was from the height. Naruto's vision blurred slightly as he turned back around fast.
"Note to self: Never look down ever again," Naruto thought to himself. Naruto managed to keep up his chakra control as he felt himself breathing a lot harder now.
"Naruto-kun stop!" Yugito yelled as Naruto turned his head to see Yugito not far behind him. Naruto obeyed as he waited for Yugito to catch up to him. Yugito, wasted no time and came up to Naruto with a slight smile.
"I didn't expect you to get this far up the mountain. You should come back down now. The further you go, the harder it is to breathe. You even got further than I did when I tried it. Right here is where most chunin to low jounin level people are. I'm impressed," Yugito told Naruto. Naruto gave a grin from the praise as he and Yugito descended the mountain. Naruto found his breathing much easier as he stared back at the mountain. Naruto suddenly gave a small smile as Yugito, Nibi, and Kyuubi sweatdropped.
"I better watch him now. He's going to try and conquer the mountain. Why shouldn't I be surprised by that?" Yugito thought as the two jinchuuriki turned back to see Bee waiting for them.
"Hey ya fools. I saw ya tryin to tackle da mountain. Ya gotta aim higher to be gettin stronger," Bee said as Naruto and Yugito nodded in agreement. Yugito walked up to be and turned back to Naruto.
"So what are we teaching him today? We've warmed up enough and I was going to review the Kage bunshin jutsu with him, but after that exercise I think he's got that down. So what do we do?" Yugito asked Bee. Bee took a thinking pose as Naruto waited for his instructions.
"How's da kid's taijutsu coming?" Bee asked her. Yugito turned back to Naruto and gave a soft smile.
"It's coming well. I didn't teach him the academy style as it has too many faults in it. So I simply taught him my Neko taijutsu. Thanks to Kyuubi, Naruto seems to use it quite well, I should say almost as good as me," Yugito responded. Bee nodded with a grin which made Yugito slightly nervous. Naruto raised an eyebrow at both of them as Bee walked up to Naruto.
"Hey Lil Nine, I think your ready to be a genin now," Bee said as Naruto's eyes beamed and Yugito dropped her jaw slightly. Bee gave him a thumbs up as Yugito placed her hand on Bee's shoulder.
"Bee don't you think that's rushing it? Normally all the academy students graduate at either eleven or twelve. Naruto-kun might be too young to start his career as a shinobi," Yugito said knowing the dangers of actual ninja duty. Bee smirked as he turned to Yugito and placed his arm on Naruto's shoulder.
"Don't be like dat Yugi-chan. I was a genin at age ten. You were a genin at nine. Why shouldn't Lil Nine become one at eight?" Bee asked her. Yugito wanted to say something, but couldn't as she knew Bee had a point. Both of them were given special exceptions in becoming genin early. Yugito sighed as she looked from Bee to Naruto and back. Yugito walked up to Naruto and smiled.
"I think Naruto-kun should decide. It's his future after all," Yugito said to Bee. Bee nodded in agreement as both turned to Naruto. Naruto took a thinking pose for a few minutes to decide and smiled as he turned to the two jinchuuriki.
"I would like to become a genin," Naruto told them. Yugito gave a small smile while Bee nodded.
"Da kid's made his choice Yugi-chan. Let's take him to Bro," Bee said to her. Yugito nodded as the three jinchuuriki went to the Raikage Mansion to update Raikage about Naruto.
Raikage Mansion
Raikage simply doing paperwork as he mentally cursed the large stacks of documents to his left. Raikage sighed as he wondered if he could simply burn the paper with his raiton affinity. Raikage was soon brought out of his rage by the sound of the door opening to see his assistant come in through the door.
"Sorry to disturb you Raikage-sama, but you have guests," The dark colored woman said to him. Raikage thanked the heavens for whoever it was and grinned at her.
"Thank you Mabui. Send them in," Raikage said to her. Mabui nodded and quickly left as Raikage wondered who it was that wanted to see him. After 5 minutes of waiting, Raikage saw the door open again to see Bee, Naruto, and Yugito come through the door.
"Hey Bro, how's it going with da paperwork?" Bee asked while Raikage grumbled. Naruto chuckled as, but stopped as everyone got serious. Raikage turned to Naruto and smiled.
"Haven't seen you for a while kid. How you been?" He decided to ask. Naruto smiled and stepped forward.
"I've been good A-sama," Naruto said to him. Raikage nodded as he turned to Yugito.
"So what's the matter?" Raikage asked them. Bee and Yugito turned to each other and nodded as they turned back to Raikage.
"We believe that Naruto-kun is ready to become a genin for Kumo," Yugito said to him. Raikage raised an eyebrow at them then looked down at Naruto.
"Are you two sure? He's only been here a month and a few weeks," Raikage asked them. Yugito and Bee nodded with confidence as they brought Naruto forward.
"And thanks to our training he is currently stronger than any fresh out of the academy student. The kid's more than ready for this bro," Bee said with a thumbs up. Raikage turned to Yugito then Bee and then to Naruto. Raikage smirked as he got up from his desk and walked until he was in front of Naruto.
"So you're ready to become a genin?" Raikage asked. Naruto immediately nodded with a confident grin as Raikage smirked.
"Alright then. Normally you would have to wait like all the other kids, but I don't think theirs anything that really normal about you," Raikage said aiming for that to be in a nice way. Naruto managed to pick up on that and nodded as Raikage brought Bee and Yugito to his side.
"Alright Naruto. You will go through three parts of this exam. First is the written exam, second is the jutsu portion and third is a little spar with either Yugito or Bee here," Raikage told him. Naruto nodded with a smile as Raikage motioned for Mabui.
"Yes Raikage-sama?" Mabui said as she looked briefly at Naruto and gave a small smile which Naruto returned with his own smile.
"Take Naruto to an examination room and give him a written exam. Apparently he wasn't to be the youngest kid to become a genin," Raikage said to which Mabui chuckled. Mabui nodded and took Naruto's hand as both left the main room. Yugito and Bee smiled at each other as they decided to wait for Naruto to be finished.
Naruto and Mabui walked to an empty room used for council meetings as Naruto sat in a chair and Mabui gave him a simple paper and a pencil.
"Alright Naruto. I'll wait till your finished. Don't rush and take all the time you need," Mabui told him. Naruto simply nodded and grinned as he sat in a chair with the paper in front of him. Mabui sat in a chair on the opposite side of where Naruto was sitting and took out a book to read. Naruto took the pencil and glanced at the test. Naruto softly chuckled at the fact that everything was about Kumo though he shouldn't have been surprised. Naruto seemed to know most of the question simply from the books Yugito gave him to read over the month. Naruto wrote down everything as best he could. Naruto even got some help from Kyuubi as she told him the answers to this that he normally wouldn't know. Within 20 minutes, Naruto finished his paper and handed it to Mabui.
"I'm finished Mabui-san," Naruto said to her. Mabui nodded as she took the paper and escorted Naruto back to the main room.
"Raikage-sama, Naruto-san is finished with his examination. I will grade his exam and will return shortly," Mabui said with a bow as she left. Naruto gave his never ending smile as Yugito, Bee and Raikage got up from their seats.
"Alright then Naruto we will start the jutsu portion of the exam. Come with us outside," Raikage said as all four people left the building. Raikage brought them to an open field and turned to Naruto.
"Alright Naruto, Bee told me about your affinities so for the jutsu portion I want you to do one type of jutsu for each affinity," Raikage told him. Naruto nodded as he walked a little further into the field for a safe distance. Raikage waved for Naruto to start as the blond went through multiple handsigns.
"Fuuton: Daitoppa( Wind Release: Great Breakthrough)," Naruto yelled as he sent a massive gust of wind towards the group. Yugito, Bee, and Raikage braced themselves for the wind as the were knocked back a few feet. Naruto released the jutsu as he saw Raikage wave his hand. Naruto sheepishly chuckled and rubbed the back of his head as Raikage and Bee clapped. Yugito was happy that Naruto was able to do it, but cursed that she didn't have her hair set for it as she tried to bring it back to it's original shape. Raikage waved his hand for Naruto to continue as to which the blond nodded. Naruto went through more handsigns and pumped an electrical current through his right hand.
"Raiton: Kaminari no Jishin( Lightning Release: Thunder Quake)," Naruto yelled as he slammed the ground causing a medium sized wave of lightning to spread across the ground nearly hitting Bee, Yugito and Raikage, but managed to stop in time. Raikage smirked at the small hole Naruto made in the ground while Bee clapped. Yugito gave a small smile, but turned to Bee with the all to innocent smile that made Bee sweat.
"Bee when we get back, your going to tell me how Naruto-kun knows that jutsu," Yugito said as Bee nodded though quivered slightly. Raikage laughed at them both, but everyone turned their attention to Naruto who was ready for the signal to continue. Raikage waved his hand as Naruto did the tiger seal and breathed deeply.
"Katon: Kitsune no Hinotama( Fire Release: Demon Fox Fireball)," Naruto yelled as he shot seven fox looking fireballs into a mountain side causing a considerable amount of damage. Naruto huffed slightly as he felt his chakra get slightly winded, but shook it off and stood tall from his achievement. Raikage nodded as he and two jinchuuriki came to Naruto.
"Good Lil Nine. I'm impressed with da skills," Bee said to him. Naruto nodded as Raikage pointed to Bee or Yugito.
"Next is a light spar. Pick your opponent and you must fight them with as much skill as you are able for 1 hour. The only rule is no ninjutsu or genjutsu," Raikage told him. Naruto nodded with a smile as he turned from Yugito to Bee and back. Naruto did this process multiple times, but stopped and pointed to his target.
"I'll take Yugi-chan," Naruto said which surprised all three of them. Yugito gave a grin and stood across from Naruto.
"I won't go easy on you simply because I like you Naruto-kun," Yugito told him. Naruto gave a slight blush while Nibi decided to intervene.
"So you do like him?" Nibi asked to which Yugito blushed from the twisting way that Nibi used her words against her.
"Not like that Baka Neko," Yugito said to her tenant to which Nibi rolled her eyes with a smile. Naruto fought back the blush on his face as he took out his two swords.
"Bring it on Yugito-chan. I always wanted a cat to play with," Naruto said to which Yugito's eyebrow twitched. Raikage and Bee stifled their laughter as Yugito gave a smile.
"Let's go then Naruto-kun," Yugito told him. Naruto nodded as Raikage waved his hand for the fight to commence. Yugito wasted no time and dashed towards Naruto. Naruto gasped at the speed as he found himself flying through the air thanks to a kick from Yugito. Yugito gave a small as Naruto crashed into the base of the mountain. Naruto painfully chuckled as Yugito spoke from the center of the field.
"Cats can be quite vicious Naruto-kun," Yugito told him. Naruto narrowed his eyes at her and quickly rebounded as he got to his feet. Naruto couldn't rely on his kage bunshins this time and channeled chakra to his feet as he ran towards Yugito. Yugito saw Naruto coming and tried to dodge, but moved too late as Naruto appeared in front of her. Yugito and Naruto smiled at each other as Naruto threw out a punch. Yugito managed to block the punch with her right hand and twirled her body to bring her foot around. Naruto turned his eyes fast to the right and ducked his head managing to avoid the semi-lethal kick aimed at his neck. Naruto and Yugito continued their close quarters taijutsu fight as Raikage turned to Bee.
"He's doing well. It seems having you two teach him was the right thing to do," Raikage told him. Bee nodded with a grin of pride as both turned back to the fight to see Yugito skidding back while holding her stomach.
"Sorry Yugi-chan, but if the cat disobeys then the owner must discipline it," Naruto told her. Yugito, and Nibi, chuckled at the smart aleck remarks Naruto made as they always found them funny since they both knew he was teasing. Yugito chuckled as she took out a kunai and threw it at Naruto. Naruto managed to counter with it with one of his swords, but cursed as he found out too late that the kunai was a distraction. Naruto turned his head to find Yugito, but cursed as she disappeared from his view. Naruto looked in all directions, but still couldn't find her as quickly looked up. Naruto gasped as he saw a multitude of kunai coming down on him. He quickly made a defense position that he learned from Bee as he Naruto blocked the rain of kunai left and right. Naruto blocked as many kunai as he could, but it was too much as Naruto decided better to cover his head and block as the kunai made several cuts throughout his body. The rain of kunai stopped as dropped one of his swords by mistake. Yugito saw her chance and came out and rushed at Naruto as she was looking to end the fight. Yugito had about thirty minutes left for the fight, but decided to end it now. Yugito closed in on Naruto looking for the final hit as she connected her right fist to Naruto's face.
"And that's the cat's defiance," Yugito said with a smile. Naruto grimaced, but gave a hidden smirk as he disappeared. Yugito gasped as she saw one of his swords on the ground.
"Kawarimi no jutsu," Yugito said in realization as she looked to see Naruto behind her with his sword at her back.
"And with that the cat learn to be obedient," Naruto told her. Yugito narrowed her eyes, but chuckled as she raised her hands.
"I give Raikage-sama," Yugito said to him. Raikage nodded as Yugito and Naruto left for a second to patch up their injuries which only took about five minutes.
Five Minutes Later
Naruto, Yugito, and Bee were all present with Raikage again as Raikage turned to Naruto.
"Good job Naruto. Mabui gave me the results to your written exam and they are more than satisfactory. You did very well in the ninjutsu portion as well as the taijutsu portion. You have done well," Raikage told him. Bee patted Naruto on the back while Yugito nodded her head with a smile. Naruto blushed slightly, but bowed in gratitude of the Raikage's words. Raikage smirked as he went into his drawer and pulled out a Kumo headband. Naruto gasped at the headband as Raikage handed it to him.
"Welcome to the ranks genin Naruto Uzumaki," Raikage told him. Naruto's eyes beamed with excitement as he put on the Kumo headband. Yugito and Bee smiled while Raikage brought all three back to him for an announcement.
"This next decision was to be used whenever Naruto became genin which was today. I have already dubbed the three of you a team," Raikage told them. Bee, Yugito, and Naruto questioned the decision as Raikage chuckled.
"You three have been quite the friends since Naruto came and I think it's best for Naruto to learn fast when he feels comfortable with those he is with. Bee, you are the leader of Team Jinchuuriki," Raikage told him. Bee nodded as he, Yugito, and Naruto left the Raikage to his work.
"Now that he's a shinobi, it might be easier for Konoha to find him. Oh well, if Naruto wants to go I won't stop him, but if he wants to stay I'll protect him. Simple as that," Raikage thought as he frowned at the increased number of paperwork.
Naruto, Yugito, and Bee continued to walk out of the mansion as Naruto touched the plating on his headband. Yugito and Bee smiled at his joy of being a Kumo shinobi also both were quite surprised that the three of them were a team. All three exited the mansion and walked back to Yugito's house. On the way back, Yugito noticed some of the academy girls checking Naruto out as the blond female jinchuuriki narrowed her eyes. Nibi saw her chance and smiled at her devious plan.
"What did I tell you kitten. Their already blushing from the site of him. You should take him now while he's still single. You really need someone in your life," Nibi told her. Yugito as she didn't want to deal with Nibi's ramblings right now. During the same time, Naruto saw most of the male population eyeing Yugito as the blond narrowed his eyes.
"Feeling jealous Kit?" Kyuubi asked him. Naruto stuttered with a small blush as he tried to deny Kyuubi's claims. Bee noticed the interactions between the two blondes and smirked at their feeling of jealousy for the other attracting the opposite sex. After a few more minutes, everyone arrived him as Naruto hit the soft carpet.
"Finally a break, Yugito-chan's tough," Naruto said as Yugito laid on the couch with a smile on her face. Bee sat up against the wall while Naruto and Yugito sweatdropped.
"Why are you tired? You didn't do anything," Naruto and Yugito thought as they continued to rest on the couch, though thanks to their respective bijuu, both had a lot to think about as it referred to the other.
Back in Konoha
Sarutobi was in a small state of depression as he had to call of the search for Naruto since most people presumed the blond jinchuuriki to be dead. Sarutobi shook of such doubts, but not being able to Naruto's smiling face weighed heavily on the Sandaime's heart. Sarutobi continued his paperwork, but stopped when a swirl of leaves came into the room with Jiraiya and a not so happy face.
"I take it you didn't find Naruto-kun?" Sarutobi asked him. Jiraiya narrowed his eyes which was all the Sandaime needed to know.
"I'm going to keep searching for him. I'm sure he'll turn up somewhere. I swear Sarutobi, I will kill the people who did this when I find them and if it's a Konoha shinobi or civilian-," Jiraiya told him. Sarutobi narrowed his eyes at Jiraiya and stood up.
"Jiraiya, I can't allow you to harm the people of Konoha on the assumption that they kidnapped Naruto," Sarutobi told him. Jiraiya flashed an intense KI throughout the building as mostly everyone shuddered under it.
"My godson is somewhere out in the world. He's probably all alone, starving, or even worse. I know I should have been there for him, but I'm going to find him. I also promise, no I swear that if some here is responsible for his kidnapping I will get them and you won't stop me," Jiraiya said as he left in a swirl of wind. Sarutobi sat back in his chair and took off his hat.
"I'm getting too old for all this shit," Sarutobi said as he looked out the window and off into the distance.
"Naruto-kun, where are you?" Sarutobi wondered.
Back in Kumo
Yugito was still being pestered by her tenant as she wondered why she had to deal with all her ravings.
"Come on Kitten. You know you like him. So what if your eight years older than him. I would bet with half a mind that he likes you too. Would you at least do one date?" Nibi asked her. Yugito cursed as she tried to keep her eyes closed and rest.
"Nibi even if I did do what your saying, I don't think Naruto-kun would want to be with me. He has a lot going for him and I don't want to hinder him," Yugito said albeit quietly. Nibi seemed more frantic about Naruto than usual. She had always tried to make Yugito date some guys, but she was never this intense in her approaches.
"For Kami's sake kitten, if you turn down every guy who asks you out or don't start searching, your gonna end up old and alone in no time," Nibi told her. Yugito narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the ceiling. Yugito spared a glance at Naruto who seemed to be muttering to himself about something.
"Sorry Nibi, I can't do it. Besides I would rather Naruto-kun ask me out, but I don't think that's likely," Yugito said to her tenant. Nibi sighed as she decided to give up for today, but everyone stopped as Naruto walked over to Yugito.
"Yugito-chan," Naruto said to her. Yugito removed her arms from covering her eyes as she turned to the blond next to her.
"Yes Naruto-kun? Did you need something?" Yugito asked him. Naruto blushed for a second and looked at the ground which caused Kyuubi, Nibi, Bee, and Yugito to wonder what he wanted to say. Naruto nodded fast and looked up at Yugito.
"Yugito-chan, will you go out with me?" Naruto asked her. Time stopped for everyone as Bee's glasses slowly dropped off his face. Kyuubi's mouth hanged along with Nibi's as Yugito tried to process the words that Naruto just said to her.
"What?"
