A/N: So National Treasure won you guys! Sorry to all my mummy fans. To be honest I was expecting Married to a Mummy to win soooooooo yeah.
After that night Naruto had continued to visit Sasuke at least once every week. Trying not to go every night was hard on both of them but if Sasuke was to reach his goal he would sadly need to sleep. But their Nightly visits did help a lot with both of them.
Sasuke had become more motivated then before to be priests. He was pushing beyond the limit with training and had already started to impress be in very high places he was in the top of his of all the new recruits and even some official guards. He was expected to be promoted very soon. He had all the talent but you still couldn't just promote someone who just got there. He would at least have to keep this up for one or two years.
His hard work was also effecting others many found themselves competing to be as good as him. Which had caused his squad to be considered one of the best. Kiba had been one to be very effected by Sasuke who he had came to see as a rival and vis versa. They had both become role models among the recruits. Kiba was almost just as good as Sasuke and big things were expected of him too. The only thing that seem to be holding him back was Kiba's air of affection he didn't seem to have the hard mindset to be a general of commander.
That didn't mean he couldn't get there. He has more potential but Sasuke was more raw talent. They were both quite amazing to watch at work. Kiba had even gotten Naruto's attention when Sasuke had explained their relationship. Naruto took to upon himself to know Sasuke's friends. He held them of high opinion if Sasuke saw them good enough to be worth his time then there must be something good about him.
Naruto had also been very different because of Sasuke's presences. He had spent all his afternoons watching Sasuke and having telepathic communications with him. So that way they could converse without having everyone know that Sasuke's had very high connections. Naruto had also taken to being much more happier in the palace. He no longer simply went through the motions he even occasionally talked to Kurenai. Who was more than happy to be even a little of help to the kitsune.
She had been considered an even higher social status. Being the Kitsunes only 'friend'. Naruto saw her as more of someone to practice talking with. He wanted to get a better feel of talking with people considering he had not done so since... well he couldn't remember.
Naruto's sudden change of heart in the view of the kingdom. Besides the blessings he had taken more interest in other affairs going so far as to join in the castle parties, social gatherings, and meetings. Naruto had done so because he knew Sasuke would one day go to these things when he ross in the ranks. If Naruto was to suddenly go to them when he did they would be suspicious.
So he would start going now so that way they couldn't connect the two. It was not like he really interacted with anyone. He might get up every once in a while to stretch his feet which he now could do because he had because of a specially made metal band that when he wrapped around his head a thin curtain covered his body from view.
Naruto didn't even bother to try and talk to anyone because every time he would even come close to them they would either kneel, turn away as if unworthy, or pass out. No one dare to approach him. As it was common belief no one was permitted to unless the Kitsune had come to you first. You were not considered worthy of his presences other wise. Because only the Kitsune could determine that.
So that tended to make these events even more boring then they already were. The only thing Naruto had to do was talk with Kurenai about nothing really. Which wasn't so bad she was a very interesting person. Naruto enjoyed hearing the stories she had to tell. She also like to here about things before this mankind and when other creatures like Naruto not as powerful but others walked the earth before mankind.
They enjoyed hearing about Naruto's past companions 'the tailed beasts' as they had come to be known by. She would also relay these stories to the other priests, king, and pretty much everyone else who wished to know. It was very interesting to hear about them. Other creatures that came close to the power the Kitsune never really quite reaching his level of power.
The main question that came up was where were they now? And Naruto could honestly say he had no idea. They had all gone there separate was at one point. He didn't even know if they were still alive after all this time. Naruto had even had this conversation with Sasuke. Going more into detail about his past life and adventures before he had... mellowed out and got his anger issues fixed.
Sasuke was quite surprised to learn Naruto used to be known as a raging, sadistic, slightly crazed, mountain sized, murderous, giant fox demon. He had even laughed thinking Naruto was joking until he saw his completely serious face. He was interested to learn wrestling was a common pass time between him and his friends. Naruto had loved them all quite a bit he considered them pack, family.
Sasuke had seen the longing look in Naruto's eyes when he talked of his friends and had made it his personal mission to one day reunite him with them. He didn't tell Naruto this of course not just yet. Not until he felt confident he could do it on his skill alone. Learning all these knew things had brought Sasuke and Naruto even closer together then ever before.
To the point Naruto was tempted to tell Sasuke their fate together. But he didn't because he wanted it to happen naturally he didn't want Sasuke to fell obligated. Not that that could ever happen. Because Sasuke himself already had a pretty good idea on how their future relationship was going to be and it would be phenomenal.
