July 18th, still the tenth week
Tsunade was moving before the jonin could inhale again. "Shizune, Shikamaru, come with me to the isolation cells. Hinata, get Sakura and have her here in my office when I get back. Don't tell her anything about this and tell her to bring her emergency kit." Hinata nodded as she passed her, Shikamaru and Shizune following behind their Hokage. "I want to be the one to explain everything to her. She'll be the only person to examine Sasuke over the next few months."
"Yes, Hokage-sama." Hinata called out as Tsunade stalked out of the office. Tsunade didn't think things could get any worse but they had.
"Hokage-sama! Preliminary reports suggest it was ninja from the village hidden in the mist." The jonin called out, chasing after the three. Shizune looked back at the male and motioned for him to follow them.
"What else?" Tsunade called out.
"The anbu I talked to said that it the attackers blew open a cell randomly from the hallway behind. No one was hurt and anbu are following them as we speak." The jonin stopped to breathe. "The seals they used were prepared ahead of time but it was a rush job by the look of it."
"Whose cell did they break into?" Tsunade barked out. The group was led by the Hokage to the stairwell and started a very long descent.
"It appears they broke into Naruto Uzumaki's cell, he wasn't in the cell when the anbu checked the damage." The jonin nearly stumbled down the stairs as Tsunade hastened her pace to a near run down each flight of stairs. Both Shizune and Shikamaru managed to keep up, a feat Tsunade thought Shikamaru would moan and groan over but he was silent and quick on his feet. It took more than five minutes of running down stairs to reach the bottom and when they finally found an end to the staircases an anbu was waiting for them. The anbu bowed and moved out of the Hokage's way as she brushed right past him.
"Where is Naruto?" Tsunade asked. They walked down a stone corridor, making a right turn the first chance they got.
"Safe, in Sasuke's cell." The anbu answered. "I had no idea that someone was planning to attempt a kidnapping, Hokage-sama." Tsunade glared at the anbu as they took a left down another stone corridor, doors evenly placed along the walls.
"You're lucky they found an empty cell instead of someone in it." Tsunade growled. "I should have your head for impersonating an anbu while off duty, Yamato." The anbu bowed his head and then raised his hand to his mask to remove it.
"Yamato-san!" Shizune cried out in surprise when Yamato revealed his face.
"My apologies, Hokage-sama." Yamato looked over to Shizune and Shikamaru, nodding to them as they came to the end of the corridor. An anbu was standing outside the third to last door, watching the group come closer.
"Hokage-sama, Naruto Uzumaki has not been recovered yet. The perpetrators have escaped from the east gate with the crowds." Said anbu bowed when the Hokage stopped face to face with him.
"He hasn't been recovered because he was never lost." Tsunade turned her head to look into the opened cell, looking at the far wall that had been destroyed. "Tell them to stop searching for Naruto and just go after the bastards that snuck their way into my tower!" The anbu bowed and left them. Rubble lay across the cell's floor and she could see the floor of the hallway through the giant hole that had been left. Tsunade turned to Yamato and motioned to the other two doors.
"Open Sasuke's cell first, I want to make sure they're both there." The Hokage ordered. Yamato nodded and turned to walk to the very last door, making the hand signs to open the door. It opened slowly, much to slowly for the older blonde woman and she tapped her foot in irritation.
"Don't go too hard on them, Hokage-sama, I was the one who moved him and it was of my own will." Yamato looked over to Tsunade, attempting to plead but his expression hardly changed.
"Just open this damned door already." As soon as the door was open wide enough she stepped in. Yamato, Shizune and Shikamaru moved to barricade the doorway, listening to their Hokage start to berate those who where inside.
"She isn't going to go easy on them, is she?" Yamato asked quietly. Shizune shook her head and Shikamaru ventured further into the room.
"Troublesome." He muttered.
"You stupid idiots!" Tsunade barged into the isolation cell, immediately saw the two sitting on the bed and stopped in front of them, glaring. "What the hell were you thinking?" She asked. Before either Sasuke or Naruto could answer her she turned around and motioned to the three people in the doorway. "Shut the fucking door!"
"But, Hokage-sama!" Shizune called out. Shikamaru had already backed away for them to close the door and Yamato had already reached to close the door.
"It's fine Shizune, they know to behave themselves. Open the door again in five minutes." Tsunade looked to Yamato and he shut the door. Once it was completely sealed she turned back to the two on the bed. "Getting rid of the cursed seal was just a cover for the pregnancy wasn't it?" She asked them quietly. Sasuke regarded her carefully, her anger had simmered down but it was still there. Naruto had stiffened and looked over to Sasuke, he could feel the blonde's bright blue eyes on him. The blonde was waiting for him to answer, knowing that he would screw something up somehow.
"No, at the time the cursed seal was just a bonus. We weren't planning on letting anyone know until it was too late." Sasuke answered. He could feel Naruto's hand tighten around his own.
"Too late for what?" Tsunade asked. She crossed her arms over her chest and looked at the two expectantly. Sasuke took a moment to think carefully, wondering what he should say and what he shouldn't.
"Too late for anyone to force a lawful abortion. They'll have to kill me to kill the baby." Sasuke's response made Tsunade chuckle, grinning angrily. Naruto glanced over to Sasuke as he gave the fact he was pregnant away.
"You both are eighteen!" Tsunade screamed. "You're too young to have a kid!" Sasuke snorted at the statement.
"But we're old enough to die for our village? Don't try to give us the age crap." Sasuke rebuked. Tsunade glowered angrily at the Uchiha, refusing to make another comment about it.
"Right, right, and you just happened to get lucky, finding a missing girl who has some amount of Kyuubi locked away inside her, right?" Tsunade growled, moving to another topic. Naruto shifted at the tone of her voice but didn't say anything, pursing his lips together to keep himself quiet.
"How could that be considered lucky?" Sasuke refused to answer her previous question.
"With everyone's attention focused on her and Naruto, people will hardly think to go after you. They don't know you're pregnant, they all still think that you're still dangerous, not to be messed with." Tsunade raised both her eyebrows at the two.
"Do you really think we could have possibly have planned for her to come along?" Sasuke asked. Tsunade repeated what Sasuke had done to her and refused to answer the question. They were at a stalemate and with no time to bluff their way through each other's defenses, Tsunade sighed angrily.
"Well congratulations, Sasuke. You were the only one to pass the chuunin exams but until we can get this figured out, you, along with your little girlfriend, will be confined to the Uchiha compound under house arrest. Naruto will be able to continue doing missions with Kakashi with him," Tsunade took a breath before continuing. "That is if the interrogations go without incident and when I say without incident I mean that nothing about the pregnancy will be said. We are only talking about the Kyuubi in that girl and what happened during the Chuunin exams. Am I clear?" She asked.
Sasuke just stared at her, Naruto grew anxious and looked from Tsunade to Sasuke, it looked like either one of them could explode in anger at any moment and they just kept pushing each others buttons. "You expect me to just go along with what you decide?" Sasuke asked calmly. Tsunade nodded and dropped her arms to her hips.
"I do, I am the Hokage. Besides, I have always taken your interests into account, both of your interests." Tsunade smirked. "Does the girl know to keep her mouth shut about the pregnancy?" Sasuke nodded. "Good, I've called for Sakura to do both your check ups, she'll be here, soon." Sasuke glanced over to the blonde to see him gulp, bright blue eyes wide in fear.
"How is that taking our interests into account?" Naruto asked and looked down at Sasuke and then back to Tsunade. The door cracked and groaned as it was unsealed; their five minutes were up. "She's going to kill me." The blonde muttered. The Hokage shrugged her shoulders with a cold smile and turned to the door as it opened.
"You should probably have thought about that before you hid your little secret from her." Tsunade cryptically spoke. She stepped out of the cell with a wave of her hand and the door shut behind her.
"Hinata, where's Sasuke and Naruto?" Sakura asked. She tapped her fingers against her crossed arms nervously, shifting from one foot to the other every thirty seconds. Hinata had shoved her hands into her pockets and wouldn't look up from the floor. Yamato and Kakashi were patiently waiting, Kakashi leaning against the wall, hands in his pockets, as Yamato stood close to him, arms crossed over his chest. Tsunade had told her not to say anything but Sakura had been adamant to know what was going on. In the end, Hinata had told the pink haired girl that it concerned her teammates. Now they were waiting in the Hokage's office, the Hyuuga hoped that the older woman would return soon.
"Please Hinata, tell me what's going on." Sakura had turned to the pale-eyed girl and stepped into her personal space. Feeling her face flush, Hinata looked into bright green eyes and opened her mouth to stammer out an excuse.
"I-I-I can't, Hokage-s-sa-sama ordered me not t-to say an-anything." Hinata took a step back away from Sakura but the pink haired woman followed her, intent on finding out what was going on. The office door opened and Hinata turned around, thankful for the interruption.
"Sakura, stop bullying Hinata." Tsunade looked into the room, eyes sweeping the space and ceiling before she stepped in. Shikamaru and Shizune followed her; Shizune closed the door and stood in front of it while Shikamaru stepped up next to the other side of Sakura.
"Hokage-sama! What are you going to do with my teammates?" Sakura cried out. Tsunade raised her hand for silence as she dumped herself back into her chair and opened a drawer.
"Right now they're in isolation, waiting to be interrogated. What I plan to do with them depends on how the interrogation goes." Tsunade leaned forward, placed a sake bottle with a piece of paper with the word 'water' taped over the front of it on her desk and glanced around the room.
"But-" Sakura tried to asked another question but Tsunade turned to her with a harsh glare. The pink haired chuunin stopped mid sentence and closed her mouth obediently. Shikamaru rolled his eyes as Tsunade opened the bottle with out so much as a sound from Shizune, no wonder the Hokage was always drunk.
"I called you all here because I know you won't betray me, or them." Tsunade started off cryptically, she glanced over to Kakashi and Yamato and made sure they were listening. Sakura narrowed her eyes in confusion then glanced to Shikamaru next to her. Kakashi raised his head as Yamato turned to face the Hokage. "We don't have much time before the elders' spies get back so I'll only say what you need to know once. Sasuke is pregnant with Naruto's child," Tsunade raised her hand when Sakura's eyes widened and opened her mouth to ask a question. "You'll see how they managed that soon and when you get a chance, outside of the tower, you'll relay the information to Kakashi and Yamato with discretion."
Tsunade suddenly stopped and looked upwards as everyone else in the room did the same. It had been a small sound but the seven knew it well enough, an anbu had returned to their position in the ceiling above the office. Tsunade lifted the sake bottle and took a large gulp. "You'll be doing the physical checks on all three of them, in their cells." Tsunade looked back down to Sakura and leaned back into her chair, the bottle still in her hand. "Do you have your emergency kit?"
"Yes." Sakura answered immediately and then looked taken aback, nervous even. "What about the Suzuki girl, what's her name, Kyoka? She-that was Kyuubi's chakra earlier, right?" Sakura watched Tsunade nod and bit her lip, scared. "How is that possible?" The pink haired ninja whispered.
"We're not sure yet but Sasuke and Naruto took it upon themselves to reseal the fox's power inside of her. You'll be fine." Tsunade stood up and left her desk. She gave Kakashi and Yamato a look and the grey haired man escaped through the window, silently shutting the glass window behind him. Yamato quietly followed the other five people to the door, his mask still covering his face.
Shizune turned around and opened the door, holding it open for the three in the office. "Come on, we're going back down those damned stairs. Why didn't I get you to bring her to the isolation cells?" The Hokage asked Hinata who shook her head in response.
"You're just too-"
"Troublesome. I know, Shikamaru." Tsunade interrupted the lazy man as they filed out into the hallway. "Let's go see if they've started shagging each other already." The Hokage lifted the sake bottle to her lips again and Shikamaru glanced to Shizune who didn't think anything was amiss.
Naruto whined and stood up, pulling his hand from Sasuke's grip to run it through his hair. He started to pace around the cell, glancing at Sasuke every time he turned around. "Relax, Dobe. You're going to be fine." Sasuke told the blonde. Naruto shook his head, biting down on his lower lip nervously.
"No, you're going to be fine, Sasuke, you're pregnant, she wouldn't kill someone who's pregnant. But me, I'm toast! She's going to have my balls for this." Naruto started to mutter to himself. Sasuke rolled his eyes and scooted to the edge of the bed, reaching out for Naruto.

"Sasuke," Naruto's voice sounded urgent. "Sasuke, listen to me!" Naruto cried out. The blonde continued to manhandle Sasuke, Naruto picked the Uchiha's body but Sasuke was past the point of caring. "Stop it, Teme! Someone's coming in." Naruto whispered into his ear. The words sent a jolt of shock into his system. Silence settled between them, then Sasuke heard the grating sound of stone against stone of the door moving. How had he not heard that before?
"How much do you wanna bet they're-holy crap they are." Tsunade's voice broke through the silence. Sasuke listened with wide eyes; he could hear people gasping and then the sound of someone grabbing something.
"Umm." Naruto started but the sound of Shikamaru's voice stopped him.
"Hinata just fainted." Shikamaru sounded annoyed. Sasuke didn't dare turn his head; a cold jolt of shock was freezing his insides and keeping him from moving. It was one thing to have sex while on probation, having anbu know they were doing it but this was a completely different situation.
"Lay her down, I got her." Sakura's voice came out quiet and authoritative. Sasuke could feel Naruto's hair tickle against his neck as he looked to the door.
"Guess that means we'll have to interrogate the girl first. We'll be back for you later." Tsunade's voice sounded smug and cheeky. Naruto made a garbled noise that sounded almost like a sentence but nothing coherent.
"Whatever, I just wanted to see if you two were actually doing it." Tsunade spoke in an almost bored tone as the sound of the stone door closing started. "Shizune, you owe me a bottle of sake." There was a sound of peeling tape and Sasuke could hear the beginning of one of Shizune's many rants about Tsunade getting drunk before the door closed again, sealing them in silence again.

"I'm surprised, Dobe. I'd thought you wanted to ruin my boxers." Sasuke raised an eyebrow when Naruto shrugged his shoulders.
"You wouldn't have let me if I tried." Naruto retorted. His smile turned the tiniest bit cheeky and Sasuke tightened his grip on the blonde's hand.
"What did you do to my boxers?" Sasuke asked in irritation. Every time he left Naruto alone in the house the blonde would do something to his boxers. It was getting annoying, why did Naruto have to have a fetish with him wearing underwear with ramen on them?
"What? Why do you think I did something to them?" Naruto sheepishly smiled and tried to pull his hand out of Sasuke's grasp without success.
"Because I know you, Usuratonkachi. They better be where I left them when we get home or you're going to have more than Sakura to worry about." Sasuke released Naruto's hand and gave the blonde a look.
"Uhh, yeah of course they're there! You worry too much!" Naruto chuckled. He rubbed the back of his head nervously and looked away as the Uchiha stretched out on the cot.
"Good." Sasuke stated. He leaned in again, kissing the blonde male soundly on his lips.
"I get it, Teme, I love you too." Sasuke regarded the blonde for a second, then sighed softly, closed his eyes and set his head on Naruto's shoulder. He was tired and worn out; Naruto was so warm and comfortable to lean against…
"How could you not know that was a sake bottle?" Shikamaru asked. He stared at the shattered remains of the bottle, and then looked to Shizune who stammered out some excuse, blushing wildly.
"Never mind about that," Tsunade growled. She stepped to another isolation cell door and pointed to it. "Open this up, now." The Hokage spoke to Yamato, who had been unusually eerily silent. "Shizune, Sakura, get Hinata up to the infirmary, have someone take a look at her." Yamato stepped forward to open the door as Shizune and Sakura picked the unconscious Hyuuga.
"What about Kyoka's checkup?" Sakura asked. Tsunade shook her head.
"She'll be fine until after her interrogation, she does have Kyuubi inside of her." Tsunade watched the two women carry the other unconscious ninja away and then turned her attention to the opening stone door. "Go get her." Tsunade nodded to Shikamaru who sighed but did as he was told. He stepped into the isolation cell and frowned as the light flickered. She wasn't on the bed so he turned, looking at the rest of the small cell. The lazy genius found the redhead curled up in the corner next to the bin for her waste, staring at him with wide eyes.
"You do know that that bin there is where people shit, right?" Shikamaru raised an eyebrow and watched the redhead look over to the bin, back at Shikamaru and slowly with her foot push the bin away.
"What are you going to do to me now?" She asked. Shikamaru nodded and watched the redhead shift nervously. When she didn't get up, the lazy genius sighed heavily.
"Troublesome," Shikamaru muttered. He raised his eyebrow in confusion as the girl flinched and curled in on herself further. "Why are you scared? It's an interrogation, not torture." Shikamaru watched her get up and slowly step toward him. "Come on Kyoka, we don't have all day." The redhead stopped, expression growing confused.
"My name is Kyoko." She bit her lower lip nervously and watched Shikamaru roll his eyes and turn around.
"Whatever; just follow me." He didn't care about her name, she could have been named Floor and he would have given her the same response. They both stepped outside the cell and Yamato closed the door behind them. Tsunade was leaning against the wall, face red and eyes half open.
"Pfffh." The Hokage blew air out of her mouth and stood up, leaning down to the redhead's height. "You're the little shit that messed up my Chuunin exams." Tsunade grinned meanly, almost creepily and Shikamaru could see the young redhead start to shake.
"Hokage-sama-" Yamato tried to interrupt but Tsunade held a wobbling hand to his masked face.
"I'm going to enjoy fucking you up." Tsunade stared at Kyoko, looking into the scared green eyes of the teenager. Yamato made a disgruntled noise and shifted as Tsunade started to smell something funky. She looked down at Kyoko's lower body to see a wet spot forming at the crotch of her pants and liquid pooling around her feet.
"Holy fuck, you actually pissed yourself." Tsunade muttered, astounded. She opened her mouth to say something, puking up the contents of her stomach onto Kyoko's front instead.
"Haah-hi-yaaaah!" Kyoko screamed and backed away into Shikamaru in a terrified shock. Shikamaru grabbed her and gripped her shoulders tightly to keep her from running. Tsunade started to fall forward and Yamato caught her, holding her up with some difficulty.
"Get her to the interrogation cell, then get her a glass of water. If you can find something for Kyoko to wear, bring it." Shikamaru immediately pushed the redhead in front of him, pushing her to walk as she silently continued to freaked out. Tsunade was groaning behind him and the lazy genius looked back to see the man carrying the Hokage in his arms. Sighing at all the work he was doing and going to have to do, he pushed the redhead down endless halls to the interrogation cells. He could hear anbu moving above him but he didn't really care to stop and explain and when he rounded a corner he nearly pushed the girl into an anbu.
"Nara Shikamaru, what are you doing with the Hokage and a ninja suspected of treason?" The anbu asked. Shikamaru rolled his eyes and pushed the redhead away from the anbu. She shuffled behind him and was silent.
"Only the Hokage can decide if anyone has, or could have, committed treason. Hokage-sama, do you think Kyoko has committed treason?" Shikamaru turned to Yamato and Tsunade, she lifted her head, frowned and slurred out her response.
"Who's Kyo-?" She watched Shikamaru nod to the redhead and her confused drunken expression lifted. "She's just a little shit, couldn't treason her way out of her own pants." Finding this funny, Tsunade snorted and tilted her head back as Kyoko backed away from her into the wall, hands trying to hide the crotch of her pants.
"Now, I am taking the Hokage and the 'little shit' to an interrogation room where she can decide if the 'little shit' is worth worrying about. The elders can learn about Tsunade-sama's decision after she's made it." Shikamaru reached out to Kyoko and grabbed her by a chunk of her unkempt wavy red hair. He half dragged her past the anbu, Yamato carrying the Hokage after him.
"I-I'm suspected of committing treason?" Kyoko whimpered weakly.
"Troublesome." Shikamaru shook his head and led them down countless hallways for several minutes. "No, the elders are just trying to meddle."
"Who are the elders?" Kyoko asked quietly. Shikamaru stopped in the middle of a hallway and let go of her hair. He stepped up to a metal door and unlocked it.
"The elders are old people who think the old fashioned way is the best way." Shikamaru held the door open and motioned with his head for the three to enter. Kyoko cautiously stepped into the dark room, just inside so she could ask Shikamaru a question. Yamato dutifully went deeper into the room, made noises and came back out, Tsunade no longer in his arms.
"The old fashioned way?" The redhead asked. Shikamaru nodded to Yamato who immediately picked up a quick pace and the lazy genius pulled the door shut.
"Yeah, where they destroy everything that doesn't fit in with their views, so troublesome." Shikamaru muttered. The door closed and the lazy ninja locked it, sealing the three people in total darkness.
