Summary: Collection of ficlets, drabbles, one-sentence drabbles and future fic previews. Some sweet, some sad, some silly, but all short and all KakaNaru. #15: Mask and déjà vu. ANBU ficlet, preview for my AU. "How about a glimpse under your mask?"
NOTE: This was written waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back so it may be weird. And not up-to-par.
I just kinda wanted to update 'cause I have been off for so long. Not really romance though, and kinda abstract/vague/fragmented ^^;;
"I'm leaving."
Four pairs of startled eyes stared at him.
"It's only temporary," he added hastily.
"How long?" Kobura asked, strangely quiet.
Kitsune sighed. "A few years."
Inu's head jerked up in surprise. 'Coincidence? Can't be...'
"So, uhm... take care of yourselves, and don't go running off on missions without a complete team, you hear me?" He tried to sound fierce, but somehow it turned out awkward instead. "I'll be back. Promise."
They nodded silently.
"Right. And... anything you people want before I go? Exploding tags, healing tags, scrolls, anything I can get?"
"How about a glimpse under your mask?"
He stared at Inu, who looked back with a steady, determined gaze. Kitsune gave a dry laugh.
"Fine."
His subordinates crowded around him, staring intently. As his hand reached towards the fox mask, he cast an amused glance at Inu. "Kind of déjà vu, don't you think?"
"You're—!" Inu spluttered, recalling a similar scene with his own genin team.
Naruto removed his mask, and grinned at his team.
"Surprised?" he asked mildly.
