(Land of Wind)
Naruto and Fuu continued their trek through the vast desert of the Land of Wind.
As their journey continued Naruto began to worry more and more about Fuu. After having been banished she had gotten a lot quieter. This was concerning to Naruto but not overly so as he did something similar when he was banished. He believed that she just needed time to sort through her feelings and would start feeling better after that. However, she was even quieter after the night they shared a sleeping bag. Fuu hadn't said more the ten words to him since then.
'She is probably mad at me for sleeping with her and thinks that I am a pervert now.' Naruto sadly thought to himself.
Naruto was also trying to come to grips with how he felt about that night. He had tried to just forget that night, but he just kept coming back it.
At first, he tried to tell himself that what he did was purely practical and it was simple just being near each other to not be cold, but Naruto felt wrong thinking that. Every time he looked at Fuu, he got a warm feeling where she had been pressed into him in the sleeping bag. He eventually stopped trying deny that he only thought of her as a friend. He knew that there was something about her, but he didn't know what. It was different than how he felt about Sakura, so it couldn't possibly be love could it?
Unknown to Naruto Fuu had been thinking over and over again about how she felt about him and wondered what he thought of her. She knew that she could trust him to keep her safe and not turn on her, but she didn't know if she could let herself get close to him as people had always seemed to turn on her in the past. The constant battle going on in her head was driving her insane.
(Near the Sand Village)
The silence was finally broken when Naruto spotted the walls of the Village Hidden in the Sand. "We are almost there. If you look closely you can see the gates right over there." Said Naruto as he pointed to the location of the only public entrance into the Sand Village.
They walked up to the gates of the village where a bored looking gate guard looked at them and said, "State your purpose for entering the village."
"We are looking for a place to get some supplies and rest. We were also probably going to try and see Gaara if he is in town right now." Naruto said. The gate guard just looked at them and drowned "Fill out this form. The hotels are located in the outskirts of the shopping district near Kazekage tower. Don't break our of our laws or you will be arrested. Have a nice day."
Both Naruto and Fuu quickly filled out the form and gave it back to the gate guard and who then waved them through.
As they started to walk through town Fuu spoke, "So how are we going to find this Gaara friend of yours?"
"If we just hang around for long enough we will figure something out. He has a brother and a sister and if we find them then they can take us to him. For now, let's go find a Hotel I want to get out of this heat." Naruto replied and Fuu nodded in agreement.
Arriving at the the hotel they grabbed two seperate rooms to stay in. Dropping off their gear they headed out towards the Kazekage's tower.
(Sand)
Temari was walking through the streets of the Hidden Sand. She had had a long few weeks, with Gaara becoming Kazekage there was a lot of things to do. With having to have to inform all of the minor villages and Kankuro purging all of the people that would backstab Gaara.
While Kankuro had stayed and dealt with the leadership Temari got stuck with spreading the message to the other villages. Temari sighed as she rolled her shoulders this was her first day off in a while and she was planning on spending the day getting pampered at a spa and just relaxing.
Temari was yanked from her thoughts of a present afternoon when she heard someone call out her name.
She recognized the voice but couldn't quite remember whose it was. Turning toward the voice she saw a boy with spiky blond hair and three whisker marks on his face. Next to him there was a girl with short mint green hair and orange eyes. Both were wearing long dark beige travels cloaks.
It took her a second to recognize Naruto because he had changed a bit, but with that hair, whisker marks, and goofy smile it couldn't be anyone else. Once it registered in her brain she called out "Naruto?! What are you doing here and where have you been?"
Naruto responded "Well I came to see Gaara and talk about some things. Oh, by the way, this is Fuu."
Temari sighed because she knew that her day would be a lot longer now and said "Here I'll show you to him. If I remember he and Kankuro should be finishing up a meeting right about now."
Naruto nodded and followed Temari as he thought 'Gaara has meetings now?'
(Kazekage tower)
Naruto, Temari, and Fuu were walking through Kazekage tower. Coming to a door, Temari knocked on it and they heard Gaara say "Come in".
They entered and Naruto's jaw hit the floor when he walked in and saw Gaara wearing the Kazekage's clothes. He then asked in an astonished voice, "Wait you're the Kazekage now?"
In a flat tone, Gaara said, "Well since you can't be a kage now I had to pick up the slack."
Naruto's face then turned from shocked to being slightly annoyed, "Since when did you get a sense of humor."
Gaara replied "A bit after the chunin exams. By the way, who is this you brought with you?"
Naruto then got out of his mock annoyance and said "Oh this is Fuu. She is the Jinchuuriki of the seven tails. She was banished from the Waterfall, so we have been traveling together."
Fuu was nervous and tensed a bit when Naruto said she was a Jinchuuriki. She hadn't expected Naruto to tell them about her tenant. However, her fears that everyone would hate her because of it were unfounded as she got warm and inviting smiles from Kankuro and Temari. Gaara only gave a small smile, but it was clear that he understood her.
Gaara then said "It's nice to meet you Fuu. I want you to know that you are always welcome here in the Sand Village."
Fuu replied, "thanks."
Gaara then said "Is there anything else important you want to talk about?"
Naruto's face when serious and he said, "Ya have you heard of a group called the Akatsuki?"
Gaara responded, "I believe I have heard of them, but I don't remember anything specific."
"They are a group of S-Rank Missing Ninja. There organization's goal is to capture all of the tailed beasts." Naruto stated.
Kankuro and Temari got shocked looks on their faces while Gaara sat up in his chair. "So they are coming after us?"
"Ya, we can't let them do that," Naruto said.
Gaara nodded and said "Yes, I will talk to my village's council about this. We can't allow them to succeed. The hidden villages have done enough damage with the tailed beasts we don't need a bunch of rogue ninja trying to control them." Everyone else nodded in agreement.
Gaara then continued "I would like to stay and chat Naruto, but I have a council meeting soon. How about we catch up and have dinner tonight?"
Naruto said, "Ya that sounds good."
Gaara then said, "I will be busy for the rest of the day, so what are you going to do?"
Naruto answered, "Well I was wondering if I could talk to Kankuro about a blueprint I found."
Kankuro shrugged his shoulders and said "Sure I'll take a look. We can do it in my workshop."
Everyone then looked to Fuu who said "I don't really know. I hadn't thought about it too much."
She was then going to say that she would just tag along with Naruto, but Temari spoke first. "How about you come with me and have a girl's day out." The older girl said. Before Fuu could say anything Temari grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the office.
Kankuro then said while shaking his head, "Temari always complains that there aren't any girls to hang out with in the Sand Village, but anyway let's go to my workshop."
Naruto nodded and the teens left. With his office now empty Gaara got back to fighting his most recent enemy paperwork.
(Streets of the Sand Village)
Temari was still dragging a very shocked Fuu through the streets of the Sand Village. After Fuu's shock wore off and she got the courage up she asked, "Where are we going?"
Temari glanced back, "Well first we are going to do some shopping, then go to the hot springs, and then go to the beauty spa."
Fuu quickly jerked her hand out of Temari's saying, "You know what I think I'll just go check up on Naruto." She had been to a hot springs and beauty spas before. The one time she went to a hot spring was after a mission a boy on her team pulled a prank on her that ended with her naked in front of most of the males at the hot springs. Fuu's experience with beauty spas wasn't much better. After she became a ninja she thought that people would start to be nice to her and ended up "befriending" some other Kunoichi from her year. They had then taken her to a beauty spa and with the help of some of the workers there given her the worst makeover of all time.
These two events happened within a week of each other. After both of these incidents, Fuu became more secluded and isolated from everyone in her village.
Temari was skilled at reading people's emotions and she saw that Fuu had gotten a bit freaked out when she heard where they were going. Temari knew that the only explanation for this was that she had had a bad experience in her past and was having some trust issues. Because she wanted to go back to Naruto which meant that she trusted Him. With this information, Temari made a plan.
Stopping and looking at her Temari then said, "I know this must be hard to trust me as you just met me. It took Gaara some time to trust me and Kankuro once he started to change. Well, he did trust that we wouldn't hurt him, but he didn't trust us with the deeper things. So I understand if you want I'll show you to Kankuro's workshop."
Fuu thought about it for a second and before changing her mind. 'Naruto won't have let me come with her unless he trusted her. Naruto did say I should trust people more, so I guess I'll try.' Fuu thought.
Taking a breath she said, "I guess we can try what you were wanting to do."
Temari smiled and said, "Come on let's go and you don't have to do anything you don't want."
(Kankuro's workshop)
Kankuro's workshop was part of the Kazekage's estate. In the Sand Village the Kazekage was commonly passed down through a family, so a large estate was made to house the Kazekage and their family.
Kankuro was looking at a basic blueprint that Naruto had handed him. After thinking about it for a while he said "This is very interesting. I have seen some stuff like this before."
"Do you think you can make it for me?" Naruto asked.
"Ya I can make it will take a bit, but I could have it done in five days or so. Also, we might be friends but this will take a long time and the materials aren't cheap." Kankuro responded.
After finishing that up Naruto went to the hotel that he and Fuu had rented rooms from earlier that day and collected their stuff. He headed back to the the Kazekage's estate and put his and Fuu's stuff in different guest rooms.
(Kazekage estate)
Hearing the door Naruto looked up from his seals seeing the sun working its way into the horizon as Fuu and Temari walked in.
Naruto couldn't help blush at seeing Fuu enter. She was freshly cleaned up from her day at the spa. Fuu didn't look that much different but, all of the dirt and grime that had built up after the river incident was now gone. Fuu didn't have any makeup on, as she didn't let the workers at the beauty spa put any on her, but her finger and toe nails were painted to match her eyes. There wasn't much difference but naruto thought she looked beautiful. Her hair had been cut perfectly cut which was a change from the jagged spiky locks of hair she used to have.
'Wait is Naruto blushing at me?' Fuu thought to herself.
Temari said "Hey, Naruto. What are you working on?" Temari hadn't missed Naruto's reaction and quickly putting two and two together. Based on how Fuu had talked about Naruto earlier that day it was clear to her that they had both had a feeling for each other. She could also tell that neither knew about the others feeling.
Naruto got his composer back and replied "Oh this is a scroll that will let me talk with Gaara in after we leave. It has a seal that will send whatever I write to him and he can reply by writing in his."
Temari was surprised that Naruto was able to make something like that. She knew he had changed from the last time she saw him just by looking at him, but this was more than she expected.
Naruto and Temari continued to talk while Fuu left with some her shopping bags and took them to the guest quarters. She saw one of the room's had an open door and that her stuff was in it Figuring it was hers she walked in and put down her bags. She then started to pull out everything out and start to sort it into some scrolls, but she couldn't get the thought about how Naruto reacted to her out of her head. After she had gotten everything sorted and packed away she heard a knock on the door.
Fuu opened the door and saw Naruto and Temari standing in the hallway. Naruto leaned on the door before saying, "Kankuro just got back and Gaara will be here soon, so we were thinking of going to out to get dinner in thirty minutes."
Fuu nodded causing Naruto to walk off to get ready leaving Temari. The remaining blond then said, "You should wear that dress you got."
Fuu blushed as the mentioned dress was a bit provocative. She fumbled with her hands while mumbling "I don't kno ... ".
Temari gave Fuu a sly smile and said "You know he likes you. You saw him when he walked in. Just imagine him when he sees you in that dress."
Fuu blushed, slamming the door. Breathing heavily while trying to get the blush on her face under control. After a minute she pulled out the dress that Temari had helped her pick out. Well, more like politely forced her to buy. It was an orange and white dress and was less revealing in most areas than her usual attire, but overall it was more provocative. It had a lower cut showing more cleavage than her usual shirt which just compressed it to keep it out of the way in fighting. It also hugged her curves tighter showing off her womanly figure. It also just a bit shorter than the skirt she normally wore.
She thought about what she and Temari had talked about today. She had admitted to liking Naruto and with a lot of prodding had also admitted to liking him more than just a friend. Temari then also insisted that Naruto also liked her. She wasn't so sure about that, but knew that Naruto was her friend and cared about her.
She took one last long look at the dress before taking a breath, placing it on her bed and went off to take a quick shower.
(with Naruto, Kankuro, and Gaara)
The three males were waiting around for Fuu and Temari to finish getting ready. Gaara was wearing his Kazekage clothes while Naruto and Kankuro were dressed in formal attire. This was forced upon them by Temari neither was happy about it but seeing the wisdom in letting her get her way went along with it.
Naruto was talking to Gaara about the scroll he had to made for him early that day when Temari and Fuu entered the living room. Naruto looked up and when he saw Fuu he didn't even know what to think. He was lucky he was able to quickly recover because if he hadn't then he would have gotten blood all over his clothes.
Both Fuu and Temari noticed the expression on his face when he saw the green haired girl. Fuu was becoming more confident that Naruto had feelings for her.
Temari then said with a smirk, "Ready?"
Everyone nodded as they all got up to leave. When they were at front door Gaara said "By the way, I asked my two apprentices to join us for dinner. They will meet us on the way there."
Temari had a little frown that no one noticed. 'Those two better not try anything because I don't think Fuu could take it.' Temari thought. She liked Gaara's apprentices as they helped Gaara learn to be better with people, but they were quite flirty.
On the way to the restaurant they heard "Hey Gaara." Everyone turned to see two well dressed girls.
The girls came up to them and Gaara said, "Hello girls."
Gaara turned to Naruto before saying, "These are my two apprentice Matsuri and Yukata. Girls this is my friend Naruto that I have told you about."
Naruto chuckled with a bow. Matsuri and Yukata both smiled back.
On the way to the restaurant, Yukata started chatting with Naruto. They were both laughing during their chat. Fuu watched them the entire time flipping between jealousy and depression. Not feeling comfortable she didn't say anything as they walked. Temari noticed this and rubbed the bridge of her nose while she thought 'Damn it Yukata.'
They soon got to the restaurant and were seated. Fuu was hoping to sit next to Naruto, but Yukata quickly took the seat next to him and Kankuro sat on the other side.
Temari gave Kankuro a death glare when he sat down next to Naruto. Kankuro gave a look back asking what he did wrong. Temari just shook her head leaving Kankuro confused.
As the dinner progressed Fuu began to feel less sad and more jealous/angry. 'He is supposed to be talking with me and looking at me, not her.' As angry as Fuu was she didn't say anything because she didn't know what to say. She didn't know how to enter a conversation or even how to start one. Getting frustrated Fuu got up and started to walk away from the table.
Temari knew exactly what was wrong and was feeling a bit frustrated herself. She had finally talked Fuu into telling Naruto and now there was this other girl talking to him not even giving her a chance to talk. As Fuu was walked away Temari asked, "Going somewhere?"
Fuu responded quickly trying to hide her continually growing frustration , "I am… I just need some fresh air."
Once Fuu was out of earshot Temari turned to Naruto and said, "You should go and make sure she doesn't wander off and get lost."
Naruto was about to say something but before he could Temari gave him a look that promised him pain if he didn't do what she said. Conceding the point he got up to go after Fuu.
Now that Fuu wasn't looking at the object of her anger she was able to calm down a bit. 'God damn it this is all my fault I should have just said something.'
This moment of self-pity didn't last long as Naruto walked out and came over to her. Fuu saw him then with a hint of venom in her voice said, "I thought you were talking with Yukata."
Naruto shrugged and said, "Well Temari sent me to make sure that you don't wonder off and get lost."
Fuu turned away from Naruto and started to walk, Naruto followed. They didn't talk as Fuu walked aimlessly through the Sand Village. Naruto just followed letting Fuu be his guide.
Naruto could tell that she was upset, but decided not to say anything at first. However after 6 or so blocks he decided it was time to say something. "Fuu, whats wrong?"
The cold night air hadn't cooled Fuu off any and she was growing steadily angrier as they continued to walk. She angrily mumbled, "I am fine."
Naruto could tell that something was off, so he stopped Fuu grabbing her hand. This made Fuu turn so that they were looking each other in the eyes. Naruto then said "Fuu you can talk to me. Please tell me what's wrong."
Fuu's anger was had now hit it's limit and she yelled, "You're what's wrong."
Naruto didn't understand and was about to ask what was wrong when Fuu said, "Because I love you."
Then grabbing Naruto by his collar and she pulled his face down their lips met in a rough kiss. It wasn't perfect by a long shot but for something in the heat of the moment it got the point across.
In that moment a lot of things ran through both of their heads. All of Naruto's doubts about how he felt about the girl in front of him left. He knew that this is what love was supposed to feel like and if it wasn't he didn't care.
'What the fuck have I done. He is going to hate me now.' Kept running through Fuu's mind for that brief second their lips connected. But to her, it just felt right to be kissing Naruto.
It only lasted for that moment before she began to pull away. She didn't get that far when Naruto wrapped his arm around her waist and they were kissing again. The shock of their first was gone, both knowing more of what they wanted as their lips meet a second time.
Fuu understood what this meant and it made her happy. Her arms moved from his collar to the back of his neck pulling herself further into desire for them to be one pushing her forward as she fell further into him.
She remembered why she loved getting hugs from Naruto. When he held her she felt warm, safe, and all of her problems just went away. She didn't feel the pain of being banished or the stress of being hunted by the Akatsuki. It was the only time she truly felt completely happy.
They eventually pulled away from the kiss their arms still wrapped around each other. Then in a shaky voice she asked, "You ... love … me?"
Naruto nodded then with a smile said "For a while, I didn't know. Back in my village, there was this girl … well, I don't know, but I thought I loved her. Then she got mad at me and said she never wanted to see me again, but my feelings for her didn't change. Then just recently I started feeling something different towards you and I didn't really know what it was, and I guess I still don't since I am not that great at this type of stuff. But I am pretty sure I love you."
It wasn't the most romantic or convincing thing, but as they stared into each other's eyes they understood each other.
Fuu moved her arms from around Naruto's neck to around his chest. She then pulled herself into Naruto's chest. Now that Fuu had calmed down she was starting to feel cold and Naruto was always a good source of warmth.
Naruto asked, "Should we go back?"
Fuu shook her head into Naruto's chest and said, "No I want to just be with my boyfriend." With many of her doubts and questions answered, Fuu's mind was much more at ease and she got back a bit of her bravado back.
Naruto was slightly shocked by what Fuu said. He quietly said "Boyfriend?" just barely over a whisper.
Fuu nodded into Naruto's chest and mumbled in affirmation.
Naruto smiled and said more confidently "boyfriend" and pulled Fuu in a bit closer.
Naruto then asked, "So what do you want to do?"
Fuu simply said, "I don't know, but don't let go your warm."
Looking down Naruto noticed just how thin Fuus's dress was. While slipping out out of the hug and his jacket he said, "Here take my jacket.".
Fuu then pulled the orange jacket tightly around her and leaned into Naruto. Even though she wasn't that cold anymore she found comfort in just being with Naruto.
They enjoyed the comfortable silence and just being with each other. Naruto looked around and seeing that they were in a side alley. He then got an idea and said, "Hold on."
Naruto then quickly grabbed onto her while she instinctively latched onto him as he used a body flicker. Fuu let out a little squeak when they started to move. In only a few seconds they were at the top of a tower that was part of the Kazekage's estate.
As Naruto looked into the night sky he began to speak "Back in my village I always liked to look at the night sky. It's so big that it just made me think that all my problems are so small. It helped me get through some hard times when I was younger."
Naruto then sat down and leaned against the railing and looked up at the sky. Fuu sat down next to him and started to look up at the night sky with him. She leaned into him resting her back on his chest. Naruto wrapped an arm around her waist to pull her close.
They spent the next hour just looking up at the stars and enjoying a comfortable silence. Eventually, Fuu's eyes began to close and she fell asleep.
Naruto noticed when he felt Fuu's head lull to the side. 'It's late I should just take her to bed.'
Naruto shifted around and picked her up bridal style. Fuu's hands gently held onto Naruto's shirt not waking as he picked her up.
Naruto carried Fuu to her room and laid her down on the bed. However when Naruto tried to pull away Fuu's hands didn't let go. Naruto tried to get out of her grasp without waking her. Naruto then tried to figure out what he should do and only one idea came to him.
Naruto carefully got into the bed and laid down, because of how Fuu had grabbed onto Naruto her head laid against his shoulder and she lay partly on top of him. Once Naruto was settle looked down at Fuu and couldn't help but think about how cute she looked snuggled up against him.
Naruto then laid his head back to calm his nerves and go to sleep. Eventually, he settled down and fell asleep.
That night when after they both went to asleep Temari came to check on Fuu. As the door opened slowly with barely a whisper she saw Naruto and Fuu sleeping. Temari smiled and closed the door seeing that her plan was successful even if it didn't go as she expected.
The next day Naruto woke up and tried to move, but realised he couldn't. Finding a weight on his chest he opened his eyes and saw Fuu laying on him still asleep. Which reminded him of what happened last night causing a small blush came to his face.
Just then Fuu let out a yawn and slowly opened her eyes and Naruto smiled seeing the orange eyes he thought were so beautiful.
After Fuu's eyes opened the first thing she saw was Naruto's face. She then realized she was laying on his chest. At this point, her brain went into overdrive and alarm bells began ringing upon concluding that she had been sleeping on Naruto. Once this registered in her mind she screamed and jumped up.
She then stutterd out "bed? ... last night?"
A light blush came to Naruto's face, "Well we were looking up at the sky last night and you fell asleep, so I took you to bed. When I got here I tried to put you in your bed, but you wouldn't let go of my shirt. I didn't want to wake you up So I .." Naruto trailed off a bit at the end.
Fuu's blush grew the more Naruto described what happened that night. She then mumbled "sorry"
Naruto pulled Fuu into a comforting hug and said "Don't worry about it. It isn't a problem." Naruto was telling the truth because he didn't mind. In fact, after he had gotten over the awkwardness of sleeping with Fuu he found it an oddly pleasant experience.
They embraced for a few seconds until a low rumble was heard coming from Fuu's stomach. This was when they remembered that they skipped dinner last night. Fuu's face lit up again and she buried her face into Naruto's chest.
Naruto smiled then said, "Do you want to go and get some breakfast?"
Fuu nodded and mumbled "Yes please." into Naruto's chest.
They got up while Naruto said, "We should probably get into some clean clothes." Fuu numbly nodded in reply.
After they changed they went and got some breakfast.
(Hokage's office)
Jiraiya entered Tsunade's office through his traditional window before saying, "Miss me?"
Tsunade turned around with the hint of frown and asked, "How did it go?"
"Well the first place I went was Whirlpool and Naruto was defiantly there and he did a lot of training, but it seemed that he hadn't been there for a while. I waited for a few days, but he didn't show up so I left a note for him if he ever goes back," Jiraiya said.
Tsunade sighed sadly because Jiraiya was unable to find Naruto. Moving on to other topics she then asked, "How did the meeting go with the Mist and Cloud."
"Better than expected the Mist will work with us so long as they get there Jinchuuriki back and the Raikage said maybe," Jiraiya replied.
Tsunade was surprised and said, "The Raikage actually is considering working with us?"
"He seems to care more about protecting his Brother then holding onto some old grudge," Jiraiya said.
Tsunade nodded a slight smirk beginning to show. They had gained some new allies for the fight against the Akatsuki. "What about the Village hidden in Sand?"
"I am going to go, but I have some research I want to do first," Jiraiya said with a perverted grin.
Tsunade then gave him a glare that promised pain if he did what she thought he was going to do.
Jiraiya then adopted a nervous smile and said, "Or maybe I'll go to the Sand Village now." He then jumped out the window before Tsunade could do anything. Tsunade glared at Jiraiya running off for a few minutes before she eventually got back to her paperwork.
(Village hidden in Sand)
It had been a week since Naruto and Fuu had arrived in the the Sand Village and a lot had happened in that week. Kankuro had finished the project that Naruto had asked him to complete. Naruto and Fuu had grown closer. Naruto had also told Temari, Kankuro, and Gaara about his parents. He also talked to them about the Akatsuki and had given them a copy of the Bingo book he got from Komei, but he decided against telling them about Komei. Naruto had also repaired Gaara's seal and gave him the communication scroll he had made.
Currently, Naruto, Fuu, Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro were at the main gate of the Sand Village.
"So Naruto what are you and Fuu going to do now?" Gaara asked.
"I was given an offer for a place to stay and train till the Akatsuki come out to strike. We'll go there and train." Naruto said.
"Just to let you know I am planning on doing some mercenary and bounty hunter work to make money, but I will be sure to not do anything that would hurt the the the Sand Village or its allies," Naruto said.
"Even the Leaf?" Gaara asked.
Naruto scowled a little at the mention of the leaf and said "It's best to just ignore them and not interfere with them."
Gaara was surprised a little with the venom in Naruto's voice as he had never seen it before, but it did make sense to him after what the Leaf did to him. He then said, "Well then I wish you luck and remember to come and visit."
Naruto and Gaara shook hands before Naruto said, "I will." With that Naruto and Fuu turned and left the Sand Village.
End chapter
(A/N)
Thanks to my beta dawnwatch for helping make this better.
And now the shipping chapter is complete. I know it's not great I am not very romantic person, so I am not that good at writing it. Sorry any way there won't be tons of romance.
I know this fic has been a bit short on action ... Ok, there has been no action, but that will change soon. One more chapter then a time skip and we will start to have lots of fights.
(B/A It will be awesome I don't know what it looks like but I shall endeavor to make it so everyone can see the sheer awesome of it.)
The communication scroll is similar to the one used by kabuto and Disonasu during the power arc. But instead of transcribing voices it sends written stuff.
I don't think I explained how I am dividing this fic into parts before, so this is how it will work.
Part 1: intro/banishment
Part 2: shipping
Part 3: Shippuden era
Please review I read them all.
I am looking for some feedback as to what people think would be a good summoning contract for Naruto to have. I was thinking dragon, but I know that is super cliche so I would like to do something different. However I also don't want to pick something simply to be original. Like the badger contract might be more original, but when compared to firebreathing lizard that also happen to fly it just seems silly. So give me some suggestions.
Update: on 10/22/16 I changed a little thing in the last section. It isn't a big change just something to line up better with future plans for this fic.
