Naruto and Ino broke apart after their second kiss and were gasping for air. Naruto a little more than Ino since that being his second kiss ever. What the hell was that it was almost like I was being manipulated for a moment… KURAMA YOU MOTHER FUCKER!

Naruto's Mindscape: Jinchuuriki seal

Naruto was standing front the Kyuubi's cage seething with rage. As he glared daggers at the nine tails, Kurama thought to himself, 'If looks could kill…'

Naruto spoke first, "Kurama I know what you did… If you just fucked up my friendship with Ino I will make you pay." The key to Naruto's seal flared blue flames on his fingertips and he held his hand right in front of the seal. Despite being a giant demon made of chakra the Kyuubi shivered to himself. 'I definitely don't want that to happen again…' as he remembered what happened when Naruto took control of his chakra on turtle island. The Kyuubi hid his apprehension with a smirk and simply stated, "Doesn't appear that way considering the shape she is in, and how about yourself its not like you rejected the emotions I put in your head…"

Naruto paused for a moment considering this. Maybe he is right. Ino does seem a bit… shaken by those kisses to say the least…

The Kyuubi spoke bringing Naruto out of his thoughts, "Listen brat, everyone else sees it even if you don't, you and Ino already have a special connection to each other. You need to preserve that connection Naruto. It is not one that you can ever have again. Now leave I need a nap." With that said Kurama layed back down and closed his eyes. Naruto was shocked at first but couldn't help but smile. "Some things never change huh Kurama. By the way I wasn't kidding. If you ever manipulate my emotions again, I will tighten the seal and while you ar3e pinned down I will use your own chakra to beat the shit out of you. Got it?" Without waiting for an answer Naruto phased out of his mindscape. Kurama sweat dropped. He has become quite the intimidator over the years…

Back in Reality

Ino was just recovering from that kiss and stood up knocking Naruto out of his daze and he stood up quickly also. Naruto was the first to speak.

"So does the thought of Shikamaru still upset you?" Ino answered without hesitation.

"No, not at all." Naruto smiled at this and held out his arm.

"Shall we?" Ino smiled with him and took his arm in hers.

"We shall."

TenTen was beginning to worry. The two had been gone awhile now and she was worried Ino was too upset and Naruto trying to help only made it worse. Neji noticed his girlfriends worried expression and consoled her. "Ten-chan they are fine. This is Naruto and Ino we are talking about here. Ino is too stubborn to get truly upset with Naruto around and you know Naruto will do anything to help her."

TenTen sighed and closed her eyes. "I know but I am still not convinced that everything will go okay."

Hinata on the other hand was in inner turmoil. Having seen Ino on Naruto's arm shocked her to say the least, but what shocked her even more was the fact that they seemed so close and warm towards each other. I need to tell Naruto-kun how I feel now or I will never be able to live with myself. Whether I get rejected or not I have to tell him!

Kiba noticed the sudden fire in Hinata's eyes and instantly thought of a certain green jump suited ninja named Rock lee… HOLY SHIT IT'S CONTAGIOUS! He froze where he stood shaking in fear at the thought of himself catching 'The fire of YOUTH!' Kiba almost passed out where he stood until the Choji slapped him on the back. "What's the hold up Kiba?" Kiba looked at Choji and thought of a quick diversion and stated quickly, "I'm just hungry!" Choji fell for the bait and dropped his worried gaze for his friend and got look of… lust it would seem. Kiba sighed to himself and composed himself as Choji started running his mouth about food. Kiba sweat dropped at the glare Ayame gave him and he hurried to catch up to Hinata again.

The whole group stopped when a flash of orange appeared with Ino and Naruto shut off his chakra mode. Naruto greeted the rest of the group with a simple, "Yo." Everyone face faulted at how familiar that sounded especially Sakura. Oh god it is another Kakashi sensei! The pinkett looked at how happy Ino was to be on Naruto's arm and nearly blew a gasket. "Lets go Lee." The confused Lee was then dragged away from the rest of the group yelling about how unyouthful Sakura was being. Ino laughed at how mad Sakura was when she left leaving everyone else to sweat drop with the exception of Naruto. Hinata was thinking on how to get Naruto alone so she could confess her love to him. That is until she noticed Ino on his arm and that they seemed even closer than before. "Kiba I think we should go." Kiba was about to protest until he saw the pained look in her eyes and sighed instantly knowing what the problem was.

"Well guys we have to go see you guys later." Everyone but Naruto waved goodbye knowing full well why Kiba and Hinata were leaving except for Naruto. "Why are you guys leaving so soon?" everyone sweat dropped and Kiba replied, "Cause I feel sick see ya around." Kiba's look said don't push it any farther and Naruto shrugged and said his good byes. Ino shook her head at him but before he replied he sensed someone's presence to his right.

Naruto looked to his right and said, "Your late." Everyone looked to where Naruto was and saw Sasuke come out of the shadows with a red haired Uzumaki on his arm.

Naruto nodded to the pair.

"Hey Sasuke, Karin it's been awhile." Karin simply nodded back while Sasuke replied, "You're still as clueless as ever dobe."

"What do you mean?" Naruto was thoroughly confused while everyone just chuckled at him, except for Sasuke of course, who merely smirked.

"Whatever, lets get going guys the fireworks are going to start soon." With that everyone continued on following Naruto since he is the one who set up the reservation. Ino stared at her escort to the festival in curiosity. I wonder where he is taking us. I hope it isn't a ramen stand… Naruto led the group to a rundown looking shack that seemed like it was about to fall apart. TenTen looks at Naruto in disbelief.

"Are kidding me right now? Is this one of your pranks?" Naruto simply shrugged and motioned for everyone to go inside. Sasuke narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, What are you up to Dobe?

Ino decided to listen to Naruto and pulled open the door. Once she stepped inside she turned around with doubt in her own eyes. Naruto saw this and stepped forward and whispered in her ear, "Just trust me on this one okay?" Ino nodded and continued inside and soon after the rest of the group continued in except for Sasuke and Naruto. Sasuke gave him a look that said, 'If this is a prank I'm kicking your ass' and then he too walked inside. Naruto simply smirked and followed the group inside. Once inside there was a single hall with only one door at the end of it. Naruto took the lead and got to the door first and held up his hand and everyone stopped.

Naruto gave everyone his patented fox grin and winked. From there he summoned a clone from a scroll and then dispelled the clone. As soon as the clone dispelled Naruto closed his eyes. Around his eyes an orange color began to show until in was a dark orange and when Naruto opened them, his eyes resembled a toad's.

Ino looked at Naruto with surprise and curiosity. So that's what sage mode looks like up close! Why is he using it though? Naruto saw everyone's confusion and simply winked at them, from there he turned to the door and bit his thumb. He wrote his name in blood in the middle of the door and there was a 'poof' and the door disappeared. As the smoke was clearing the sounds of a restaurant could be heard. Naruto went through the smoke and everyone quickly followed suit right behind him. When the smoke finally cleared the group all gasped in shock, even Sasuke's "Cool Guy" attitude slipped and his jaw dropped! It didn't even seem like they were inside a tiny shack, considering the ceiling was as tall as a three-story building!

Naruto stood there smirking as he took a picture of the group. This is going to be some good black mail! He put his camera away and grabbed Ino by her waist and pulled her against himself with his arm wrapped around her waist. This seemed to wake Ino out of her stupor as she shook her head slightly. She looked into the smirking Naruto's eyes and said, "How in the hell did you find this place?" Once again not giving anything away he shrugged and walked over to a big table that said, "Reserved". Naruto turned and saw that the group still had yet to move and whistled and everyone else came out of their stupor and sat down. Pulling out Ino's chair for her before sitting down himself, he motioned to one of the waitresses who had strangely familiar red hair. Ino couldn't take her eyes of her and couldn't figure out why. Why does she seem so familiar? Is it her height? No… Wait! She has the same face as Naruto! Ino thought right as the red haired waitress walked closer.

Upon that Sasuke noticed her eyes. They are dark grey instead of white… She is a reanimation. Sasuke also notices Naruto's warm smile to the woman. She must be the dobe's mother. Right as Ino and Sasuke figured out who the woman was Naruto spoke, "Hey mom." Once again everyone's jaw dropped with the exception of Ino and Sasuke who stared curiously. Kushina gave her son a foxy grin before bursting into laughter as a flash of a camera appeared and The fourth Hokage walked out behind Kushina with the said camera. Naruto and Kushina were in tears, as the group grew even more shocked at seeing the greatest Hokage to date! Choji even dropped the bag of chips he was eating and didn't seem to care! Ayame simply rolled her eyes at everyone and walked over to Kushina and gave her a warm hug. Even Naruto was surprised by that.

Kushina snickered as Ayame explained; "Kushina-chan would come to our ramen stand when I was a little girl almost everyday when she was pregnant with you Naruto. Your mom would chase me around while the ramen cooked until she wasn't allowed to. She was always so polite and ate the ramen much like you do Naruto." Kushina and Naruto both scratched the back of their heads with their right hand. "Which is why we accepted you immediately when you first came to our ramen stand." Ayame smiled warmly at Naruto and took her seat again.

Choji scratched his chin and asked, "Then why is the fourth Hokage here then?" Minato Namikaze simple closed his eyes and smiled, "That's an easy one. I am his father." Ino snorted in laughter at the look Choji gave Naruto. It was a mixture of awe, shock, fear, and a tinge of jealousy there. TenTen just rolled her eyes at him. "Choji even I knew that Minato was his father! Don't you remember the war when the fourth helped to defeat Obito and the juubi?"

Flashback:

Naruto was down on one knee in exhaustion as Sakura was healing him. The fucking bitch was complaining in his ear about how he shouldn't be so reckless. Kiba was standing a little to the right of them both clearly annoyed with Sakura. Naruto is defending us all and is the only thing between death and everyone here and you are bitching at him!? Kiba thought angrily to himself. Naruto simply smirked in response and looked to his left and moments later the fourth Hokage appeared in a yellow flash.

"Sorry I'm late son." He smiled genuine smile. All of the Konoha twelve drop their jaws in shock and screamed in unison, "WHHHAAAT!?"
