Hello again I'm back again to give you another chapter to my story; I hope you all enjoy the story and I look forward to continue the series. With that out of the way let's begin.
Set in Stone: chapter 9
Naruto and Moro were in a field training once again; it was 5 days until the chunin exams start and Naruto decided to do some last minute training before the fateful day comes. Moro charged at Naruto and began to perform a fang over fang as she barreled towards Naruto at great speed; Naruto seeing the grey cyclone of claws approaching him shifted his stance as he prepared himself. Once Moro was a few feet in front of him he jumped up and formed a lightly powered rasengan in his left hand; timing it just right he hit the 1 o'clock position of the attack effectively slowing it down just enough to grab onto Moro's out stretched hand.
Naruto doing a flip swung the girl around and slammed her into the ground; pinning her arm behind her back he put a kunai to her neck. Naruto then removed the kunai, released her arm stood up and with his trademark foxy grin spoke "I win" he said.
Moro pushing up did a flip and landed perfectly on her feet which made Naruto's eyebrow twitch; every single time he won she did some kind of crazy acrobatic move just to show off. She knew it bothered Naruto as when ever he tried to do it he failed in a hilarious fashion.
"You're defiantly ready to kick Kiba's ass" she said smirking arrogantly " but if I was able to use any of my own personal techniques you would've gotten your ass kicked 10 times over" she said as Naruto huffed.
"You keep saying that" Naruto complained "when am I ever going to see these 'personal techniques' you keep bragging but never do them" he said pouting like a child at the end. Moro giggled at his childishness; she then moved forward and kissed him, upon breaking the kiss she stepped back and held a finger to her lips.
"A lady has to keep some of her secrets" she said as Naruto chuckled.
"Since when are you a lady" he said; which earned him a kick to the ass from a blushing Moro. Sure she may not be as sexy as Tsubaki or as refined as Hinata or Yakumo but she was still a girl.
"Shut up blondie" she said huffing "once we are done with this mission I'll fight you with all I got and you'll see I'm the top bitch around here" she said as Naruto sweat dropped at how Moro keeps on saying she's the 'top bitch' like it was something normal.
Moro then moved over to a log laying on the ground and sat on it with Naruto following shortly afterwards "so how has your other training been; you been making any progress" she asked. Naruto nodded as he took out a bottle of water and offered it to Moro.
"Yeah over the past few months you and the rest of the girls have been really helping me" Naruto said as he thought back on all he has learned. Sarada, Moro and Tsubaki have been helping him the most for his training; Sarada has been helping him out with his ninjutsu she helped him by teaching him how to combine his rasengan with wind chakra to make it more powerful, her book worm habits really helped out.
Moro and Tsubaki have been helping out by helping Naruto brush up on his taijutsu; Moro taught him offensive fighting techniques while also being able to counter Inuzuka clan techniques like the fang over fang and also how to combat the Inuzuka's heightened sense of smell. Tsubaki taught him defensive fighting like how to block, grapple and throw your opponents; her hitting hard enough to break through trees made the training more effective as Naruto tried to avoid getting his arms and face broken by the busty blonde girl.
"How have you and Hinata been getting along" Naruto asked "have you 2 been bonding?"
Moro put down the water bottle and looked up at the sky "we have been getting along fine" she said "the more I spend time with her the more I realize how alike we are; we both love cinnamon rolls, we both like flowers and we both want to change who we are" she said. Moro then began to clench her fists "but the more I spend time with her the more I grow to hate Kiba" she said as her features began to grow mere feral "I hate him Naruto; I hate him for taking my mom away from me, I hate him for being my father and I hate… hate" she began until she started to hypervalent.
Naruto seeing this grabbed her with a scared and worried look "what is it what's wrong" he asked as Moro began to cry.
She then looked at Naruto with tears in her eyes "he… he" she began.
*Flash back
10-year-old Moro was standing with Kiba on a balcony as he looked down at the spectacle below; 10 of the strongest, ruthless and blood thirsty Inuzuka clansmen all between the ages of 14-20 were below in a violent fight to the death. In order to ensure only the strongest were to carry on the Inuzuka title he decided to test the 10 best soldiers he had; he ordered them to fight to the death in order to decide who will be the next clan head after he passes on.
Kiba knew that in order to do this he had to give them a prize; a prize that any one of them would want, Moro. As the last Inuzuka in the arena bashed in the skull of his opponent Kiba clapped "good shit, good shit" he said as the victor a 19 year old boy named Koga stood up hit blood stained body open for all the other clan members who were there watching to gaze and admire.
"The winner of the death match is Koga Inuzuka" Kiba announced "I hereby award you with your prize; the hand of my daughter Moro" he said pushing Moro forward. Koga looked at the young girl with lust in his eyes that made the young girl shiver in fear "may this union strengthen the Inuzuka clan and bring another generation of Inuzuka" he said as the crowd cheered.
Up in the stands Sarada looked at her friend with worry in her eyes as her Father and Mothered clapped at the outcome of the match.
Later that night
Moro was crying at the foot of the bed as she clutched the bloody knife in her hands; she turned her hear and looked at the bloody mangled corpse of Koga. She snuck out of bed and grabbed a knife from his holster while he was sleeping; she then proceeded to slit his throat, and afterward kept slicing and stabbing the corpse in a fit of rage and sadness. As she got up, she once again felt pain in her lower regions; she looked down she winced at the sight at the bottom of her night gown.
Koga despite her cries and protests was so violent with her that she passed out; it was only hours later when she woke up and saw Koga sleeping did, she realizes that passing out was for the best as it spared her from feeling anymore pain. As she slowly walked to the window of the room she picked up Koga's discarded ninja tools and put on her sandals; she took one last look at her 'fiancé' and spit on his corpse before exiting the room and running to Sarada's house.
With Sarada
Sarada woke up to what sounded like knocking on her window; after putting on her glasses she opened it and saw Moro crying and covered in blood. Sarada rushed over to the window and let her in.
"Moro what happened are you- "Sarada began until Moro started crying in her arms.
"Sarada I-I- "Moro began her story; Sarada listened to Moro explain every detail of what happened after the deathmatch and what she did to Koga. By the end a pale faced and disturbed looking Sarada was using what little medical justu she knew in order to heal Moro's genitals. Upon being done Moro looked at Sarada with red eyes and a weak voice said "I'm running away tonight Sarada" she said to which Sarada began to cry "I just wanted to say goodbye; you are my best friend" she said as she got up and began to walk to the window.
"Wait" Sarada said as she ran to her closet with 2 sets of cloths and some basic ninja supplies "put these on quickly" Sarada said as Moro put on Sarada's cloths and Sarada changed out of her pajamas into her training gear. "I'm coming with you" Sarada said Moro was about to protest until Sarada put her hand up "My Father and my mother are monsters no different from Koga or Kiba; if I stay here I might suffer… a similar fate" Sarada said choosing her words carefully as to not upset Moro. "My only regret is that I have to leave Fugaku behind; hopefully one day he can forgive me" Sarada said.
Moro smiled; Sarada was coming with her, away from this horrible place. Moro was no longer alone in the world "Ok lets go" she said. Both girls then rushed out of the bedroom over the walls of the mansion and into the woods and into a secret escape tunnel to only be used in emergencies.
Unknown to them they were spotted by Fugaku Uchiha; as he fired off a flare to signal the guards and chased after his sister and her Inuzuka friend 'sister what are you doing' Fugaku thought as he chased after his fleeing sister.
*Flash back end
Moro with tear stains on her cheeks stared off into space and spoke "after we escaped we found the resistance and joined up" she began as she looked at her hands "for the longest time I've had a hard time around men; I always felt fear and anxiety around them. I hid it behind a mask of indifference; but inside I was barely holding myself together. Ichigo was the first boy I was able to talk to and be comfortable around; only because he was as fucked up as I was" she said as she turned her head to Naruto.
Naruto was crying silently as he heard Moro's story; he's been beaten, starved, insulted, neglected and hated all his life. But he could've never imagined someone could go through so much more pain that he couldn't even begin to imagine.
"Who knows about it" he asked as Moro took a deep breath.
"Sarada, Tsubaki, Ichigo and now you" she said; Naruto reached out and held her hand Moro felt the warmness of his touch as his teary blue eyes looked into her own.
"Thank you for telling me Moro" Naruto said softly as he then moved closer and hugged Moro tightly "I swear no matter what Kiba and the others will die; I promise you. And once it's over I'll make sure you never suffer ever again" he said.
"Thank you Naruto" Moro said softly as well she then kissed him lightly and buried her head in his chest "I love you" she said. Naruto felt a jolt in his heart and squeezed her tighter.
"I love you too Moro" he said as she stroked her back to sooth her.
Unknown to either of them Hinata was hiding behind a tree; she was bringing them lunch when she heard Moro begin to tell her story. She wanted to go over there and talk to Moro; but she decided to not do it and walk away.
'Moro' Hinata thought 'you will tell me when the time is right; and when you do I'll be there for you' she thought as she exited the training grounds. Hinata then got a dark look on her usually gentle face 'Kiba; not only did you hurt me but you even hurt your own daughter' she thought as she walked back to the Senju compound 'if Moro doesn't kill you; I will.'
The next day
With Naruto, Tsubaki, Yakumo and Hinata
Yakumo and Naruto were working on 2 shadow clones that Naruto created; they were attempting to try and treat the simulated wounds that were made by the help of Tsubaki, Hinata and a lot of makeup and fake blood. Currently Naruto's clone was screaming in pain as Naruto tightened a tourniquet around his leg.
"You asshole it's too tight" the Naruto clone shouted as Naruto looked back at him angrily.
"Shut up the tighter the better" Naruto yelled back as he turned the tourniquet for the fifth time and secured it.
"Wow I never thought I'd see someone who wasn't a schizophrenic argue with himself" Tsubaki said as Hinata giggled.
"It is a strange sight indeed" Hinata said as she and Tsubaki looked over at Yakumo.
"Ok all done one broken arm splinted and a damaged eye bandaged" she said as the Naruto clone smiled at Yakumo.
"Aww thanks Yakumo" the clone said "but what would really help my pain is a kiss from my beautiful healing angel" he said. Yakumo giggled before taking out a kunai and stabbing the clone dispersing him.
Naruto and his clone received the memories of the other clone and looked at Yakumo "what the hell Yakumo" they both yelled "that hurt like a mother fucker" both Naruto's said as Yakumo chuckled.
"Well the longer your clone live the more independent they get" she said putting her hands on her hips "do you remember the hot springs incident" she said as Naruto blanched.
"Oh yeah my clone that I made to practice genjutsu went with pervert #1 and pervert number #2 to the hot springs to help with research" he said looking at Tsubaki who was laughing heartedly.
"Yep, and I got a lot of good stuff too; I saw milfs, college girls, and kunoichi on one side and silver foxes, dilfs and young hunks on the other" she said pulling out her note book "that shit will defiantly help me out with my book" Tsubaki said as everyone sweat dropped.
"Ok done" Naruto said as he finished his work "one severed femoral artery tourniqueted and one head gash properly bandaged" he said standing up puffing out his chest. Tsubaki smiled and clapped.
"Congrats Naruto you passed basic first aid" she said cheerfully "since you suck at medical ninjutsu I thought it would be good for you to know basic medical skills; and looks like you got it down" she said as Naruto smiled.
"And it only took me 4 weeks to learn how to not let somebody die" Naruto said; he then felt a tug at the bottom of his pants and looked down to see his clone.
"Kill me my leg hurts like hell" he said; Naruto dispersed him and the memories of the clone transferred over.
Naruto suddenly fell to the ground as the memories of the pain returned to him "holy fuck that tourniquet hurt" Naruto said rubbing his leg "no wonder he was fighting it so much."
"Ok everyone let's go get some lunch" Tsubaki said as everyone got up and began to walk to Ichiraku's as tradition.
2 hours later
Naruto and Tsubaki both finished their 10 bowls as Hinata and Yakumo looked in horror at the gluttons who were their comrades.
"Where does it all go" Yakumo asked as Hinata shook her head.
"I don't know but you still never get used to the sight" Hinata said; she may love Naruto but she's going to have to teach him table manners along with Tsubaki.
"Hey let me down you circus freak" Hinata heard a familiar voice yell out; as the other turned to the voice they all walked over to see what was the commotion.
With Konohamaru
Konohamaru was playing with Hanabi, Udon and Moegi when he accidentally bumped into a weirdo wearing makeup and a cat costume.
"What you say to me you little shit" the makeup wearing teen said; behind him a blonde girl with her hair done up into 4 pony tails spoke up.
"Kankuro quit fooling around" he girl said putting her hands on her hips "let the little squirt go we have to meet at the hotel in a hour" she said. Kankuro looked back at her and scoffed.
"Stay out of this Temari" Kankuro said "I'm just going to teach this little punk a lesson" he said as he balled up his fist and was about to punch the boy. His hand however was caught by a hand; as he looked over to see who caught him he saw a angry looking blonde boy.
"Let him go" Naurto said; Kankuro looked at him with a murderous gaze.
"Let go of me you-"Kankuro began until Naruto kicked Kankuro's other hand freeing Konohamaru and then throwing Kankuro to the ground. Temari was about to interfere; she was about to grab her fan until a girl with short dark blue hair poked her several times making her arm go numb.
"Please don't cause any problems" Hinata said in a calm manner in order to deescalate the situation.
"We really don't want to hurt you" Yakumo said coming out from behind Temari scaring the blonde girl.
'How did that girl incapacitate my arm' Temari thought as she looked at Hinata 'and where the hell did she come from' she said looking at Yakumo. Naruto was about to continue the fight until he heard a voice speak up.
"Temari, Kankuro; stop now" came a monotone voice that mad the 2-sand ninja pause in fear as they looked to the direction of the voice. A short red-haired boy was hanging upside down from a tree looking down at the scuffle below.
"Gaara I-I was just" Kankuro began until he was interrupted by Gaara.
"Shut up or I'll kill you" he said as he formed a swirl of sand and went down; he looked at Naruto and bowed "I apologize for any trouble" Gaara said. Before Gaara could continue he felt a hand touch his shoulder; as he turned to see what it was he sat a blonde girl with a diamond tattoo on her forehead with a giant smile on her face.
"Hey Gaara what's up" she said as she spoke to him like they met before; Gaara, Temari and Kankuro were surprised that the girl was able to touch him as they didn't even see her move next to Gaara. "I think this might help you out a little bit" she said as she raised her hand; her fingers began to produce flames and slung it down at Gaara.
Gaara's sand began to form a wall to protect him; only for the wall to crumble as the girl ripped through it like a piece of paper making Gaara feel fear for the first time in years.
"Five-Pronged Seal" the girl yelled as she hit Gaara straight in the gut; Gaara had the wind knocked out of him as he fell forward. Underneath his cloths a seal formed on his stomach and he slumped forward unconscious. "Wow who would've thought we find him so soon" Tsubaki said as he hoisted Gaara onto her shoulder "hey Temari, Kankuro; we got some stuff to discuss about the chunin exams and your plans for the finals so lets go to my place and talk ok" Tsubaki said.
Kankuro and Temari were frightened; not only did this girl one shot Gaara, but she knew about the invasion plan as well. With no options both of them silently followed the smiling humming girl as she escorted them to her house.
Later at the Senju Manor
Temari, Kankuro and a now conscious Gaara were now sitting in front of the Third Hokage, Jiraya and Tsunade of the Sanin, Naruto and Tsubaki. It was bad enough they are here; but in front of 3 Kage level ninja, a girl who could take down the second most powerful ninja in Suna and a blonde boy smiling like a jackass who was able to take down Kankuro, they felt severely out matched.
'Damn how is this happening' Temari thought 'they knew about us, took all of our weapons, and even made Gaara unable to use his sand; I don't like this' she thought nervously.
"Ok then" the third Hokage said "now that Gaara is up and his demon is no longer talking to his lets begin; we know that Gaara is the container of the one tails and about how your village has been conspiring with Orochimaru to attack during the finals of the chunin exams" he said knowingly. All 3 sand siblings began to sweat nervously. "We would like your assistance in stopping the invasion" Hiruzen said as all three looked at him like they were not believing what they were hearing.
"What" Temari yelled "you want our help? Are you serious" she asked as the 5-leaf ninja in front of her chuckled at her outburst.
"I must say this is peculiar; why do you want our assistance" Gaara said in his monotone voice.
"Simple; Orochimaru is planning on killing your father the Kazekage and screwing you over" Jiraya said making the 3 sand ninja looked surprised as to how could he possibly know that. "We put a seal onto Gaara so the 1 tail doesn't make him bat shit no more" Jiraya said pointing at Gaara who nodded as for the last half hour he has not heard 'mother'.
"We promise if you help us; we will ensure that Orochimaru is punished, you 3 are not killed during the invasion and you 3 will be let go once we are done" Tsunade said. Temari and Kankuro were not going to accept as they would not betray their village; then then saw out of the corner of their eye Gaara look to Tsubaki and bow.
"You have done me a great service; I no longer have to listen to mother tell me to kill to which I am grateful" Gaara said "I will repay you by assisting you" he said. He then turned to his 2 siblings and with a cold look in his eye spoke "and you 2 will assist me or the consequences will be horrific" he said adding a little killing intent in order to get his point across.
Temari was now shaking like a leaf under her brothers gaze; she then felt a hand on her shoulder and that Naruto boy stand in front of her "hey red" Naruto spoke up looking at Gaara with a angry gaze "cut that shit out you're scaring the lady" he said. After a 3 second face off Gaara let up the killing intent; Temari was surprised at this as she never seen anybody stand up to Gaara and live.
Naruto then turned around and smiled at Temari "sorry about that Temari; I'm happy to be working with you and your brothers" Naruto said. Temari at first was untrustful but looking at the blonde boy she could not sense any malice from him.
"Thanks, I guess" Temari said still keeping her guard up; they were all then brought out of the situation by Tsubaki.
"Great; to celebrate our new allies lets go get some ice cream" Tsubaki said; Naruto cheered as well Gaara then spoke up.
"Me and Kankuro will go and report to Baki; we will be keeping this information from him" Gaara said as he turned to Temari "Temari bond with our new allies and ensure they are trust worthy" he said. Temari nodded as she preferred not going against Gaara; before the boys left Jiraya unlocked Gaara's chakra to be able to use his sand again and gave Kankuro his puppet back.
As Kankuro and Gaara walked to the hotel Kankuro spoke up "is this wise Gaara" Kankuro said "we are basically betraying our village and the kazekage" he said as Gaara remained as passive as always.
"Kankuro" Gaara spoke "who was the most dangerous person in the room back there" he spoke.
Kankuro looked at Gaara like he was crazy " the hokage of course" Kankuro answered as Gaara shook his head.
"No, that Naruto boy was" Gaara said surprising Kankuro "he's a vessel me Kankuro I could sense it, he also had more control over his power than I did; if we were to fight him we would've surely lost" he said. Kankuro gulped as he dismissed Naruto as another genin; but if Gaara was wary of him then Kankuro had a reason to as well.
With Naruto, Tsubaki and Temari
Temari was sitting uncomfortably in a ice cream shop with Naruto and Tsubaki; currently both the blondes across from her were scarfing down ice cream and occasionally spoon feeding each other. Naruto then looked at Temari in concern as she has not touched her ice cream.
"You ok Temari" Naruto asked "you haven't eaten anything"; Temari looked at him and soke.
"I just feel a little uncomfortable" she said "I've never eaten out with anybody before; it feels awkward" she said. Naruto understood how she felt.
"I know how you feel" Naruto said "before I met Tsubaki and the other girls I was always alone" he said grabbing Tsubaki's hand "but since then I've gotten used to it and so will you" just give it time" he said.
Temari smiled lightly and nodded she was about to take a bite until a thought just hit her "wait? Other girls" she asked looking at Naruto. "Like you have more girlfriends than just her" she said pointing at Tsubaki.
Tsubki chuckled "Naruto here is the last of 2 clans" she said as Temari looked at the grinning Naruto "so me and 4 other girls are his fiance's he still needs to find 3 more as he needs to have a minimum of 4 per clan" Tsubaki said.
Temari was staring at the 2 wide eyed; 'how important is this guy' she thought 'and having eight wives; sounds awfully troublesome' Temari thought.
Across town
Shikamaru sneezed suddenly; his best friend Choji looked at him and spoke with a mouth full of chips.
"You ok Shika" Choji asked "not getting sick, are you?"
"Nah I'm fine" Shikamaru said "but it's weird, that just came out of nowhere" he said as he went back to staring at the clouds while Choji continued to eat his chips.
Back with Naruto and company
Naruto got up and spoke "I'm going to get a second bowl" he said "you girls want some more" he asked to which Tsubaki said yes while Temari declined. Naruto walked back to the counter and Tsubaki looked at Temari.
"You know you might want to shoot your shot Temari" Tsubaki said as Temari looked at her curiously "Naruto has only 3 more slots to fill and you could be one of those lucky girls" she said as Temari blushed.
"W-what" Temari stammered "I just met him today I can't-" she began and Tsubaki started laughing.
"Wow you sure are easy to fluster" Tsubaki said as Temari blushed further; Tsubaki then looked at her with a small smile. "Naruto is a great guy" she said as Temari began to listen "he's sweet, caring, considerate and most importantly he's patient" she said as she looked at her blonde boyfriend ordering his ice cream. "We've been together for a while now and not once has he done anything inappropriate to me or the other girls; any other man would think having multiple girlfriends would be a non-stop fuck fest but not him" she said looking back at Temari "at least give it a chance; don't let a good man slip through her fingers."
At the end of Tsubaki's speech Naruto sat back down and placed another bowl of Ice cream in front of Tsubaki "mint chip for you darlin'" Naruto said "what were you 2 girls talking about" he asked as Tsubaki got a mischievous smile and spoke.
"Temari here is a wind user like you and I said how you 2 should train together and learn new jutsu" she said as Temari was about to protest until Naruto looked at Temari with stars in his eyes.
"No way you're a wind user too" Naruto said excitedly "I never met another person with a natural wind affinity! Hey could you let me try out your big ass fan; I think it would be so awesome to unleash. So how about it huh… please" Naruto begged holding his hands in front of his face.
Temari looking at Naruto begging like a little kid asking for another cookie giggled at his antics "ok fine" Temari said "when we get a break from the chunin exams we can practice together; and you can use my 'big ass' fan" she said. Naruto cheered while Tsubaki and Temari giggled at his antics 'maybe being one of his girlfriends wouldn't be too bad' she thought as she began to eat her frozen treat.
Later that night: Outside the Senju manor
Naruto kissed Tsubaki on her lips which she returned; "later babe" Naruto said once they parted "I'll see you tomorrow ok" he said to which Tsubaki gave him a thumbs up.
"Can't wait cutie" Tsubaki chirped; as Naruto turned around Tsubaki made a move and slapped Naruto on his butt which made the boy jump and grab his bottom.
"Damn Tsubaki" Naruto whined "I hate it when you do that; can you at least not use your super strength" he complained as Tsubaki pouted.
"Aww you don't like that" she said feigning sadness.
"Ok,ok" Naruto said giving up "you win I'll see you tomorrow" Naruto said as he disappeared in a swirl of leaves. Tsubaki went inside and went to her room; as she laid down in her bed she looked up at the ceiling.
'Well, Temari sensei; looks like your wish is coming true' she thought.
*Flashback
An 9-year-old Tsubaki crushed another small boulder; her strength was increasing but not to her 'Mothers' level she has to keep training.
"That's good for today Tsubaki" Temari said as she walked into the training field with Shizune "you don't want to over exert yourself; a broken body will only slow you down" she said as Tsubaki pouted.
"But how am I suppose to become stronger if I don't push myself" Tsubaki said "I need to be as strong as mom was if I want to kick Uchiha's ass" she said. Shizune put her hands on her hips and glared at Tsubaki.
"Language young lady" Shizune chastised "while your mother had a potty mouth I will not stand for it" she said as Temari rolled her eyes.
"C'mon it's lunch time" Temari said as Tsubaki and Shizune followed her.
After lunch Tsubaki and Temari were sitting down as they chatted about the past "so sensei" Tsubaki asked "how did lord Gaara get his violent urges under control; wasn't he crazy back then, I always wondered that because I heard he use to be a bad guy but he changed" she asked. Temari chuckled at her student always asking questions and pestering for answers.
"Well Gaara was crazy due to Shikaku" Temari admitted "but he was saved by the one and only Naruto Uzumaki" Temari said as Tsubaki looked at her wide eyed. She always heard that Naruto Uzumaki was the only person who was able to stand up to Sasuke Uchiha but got killed due to being ambushed and poisoned; also because he was a apprentice to her 'father' Jiraya. "Naruto quite literally knocked some sense into him during the invasion of Konoha almost 15 years ago" Temari said "he was defiantly legend; strong, heroic, a bit of a dumbass and kinda cute too" she said as Tsubaki giggled.
"Did you had a crush on him sensei" Tsubaki asked as Temari's cheeks grew a little red both from embarrassment and remembering her fellow blonde.
"No I didn't" she said before sighing "but I wish I did instead of falling for that lazy ass Nara" Temari said as she clenched her fists. "If I knew that pineapple headed asshole would side with a murderous monster like Sasuke I would've let him die when that redhaired bitch was about to stab him" she said as she was still sore on how Shikamaru sided with a mad man who killed a fellow Konoha ninja.
Tsubaki looking at Temari smiled and looked up at the sky "I hope one day I can find someone like that" Tsubaki said as she jumped up and punched the air "so we can both kick Sasuke's ass and take his castle for ourselves; imagine all that look he must have in there" she said as her eyes began to show Ryo signs as she drooled over how much money the Uchiha's must have.
Temari chuckled at Tsubaki's antics and patted her head "one day my little blonde student" she said "now then let's teach you one of Naruto's favorite's ; the 'shadow clone jutsu' Temari said as she went made a cross shaped handsign and created a clone of herself.
"Woah" Tsubaki said in awe "so cool" she said as she began her training once again.
Flashback end
Tsubaki smiled at the memory and yawned "well you were right sensei; he is pretty cute" she said to herself as she turned off the lights and went to bed.
The next day
"So your team is participating in the chunin exams right" Ichigo said to Ino as they both sharpened their swords "it would be a shame to see all my training I gave you go to waste" he said as Ino rolled her eyes.
"Yeah we're participating" Ino said before sighing "but I know the lazy ass and the fat ass are going to make me do most of the work; freaking bums" she said as she was the only person on the team who was taking their training seriously. Ichigo then eye smiled at her and spoke.
"Well then that just gives you more chances to show off then" Ichigo said as Ino nodded.
"Yeah you're right" she said cheering up "I'll become a chunin; then I can really start cracking the whip on them" she said as Ichigo continued smiling.
"Why Ino I didn't know you had a dominatrix side of you" Ichigo said teasingly "although if you'd ask me nicely I would've let you crack the whip on-" he continued until Ino tried to slap him in the back of the head. Ichigo dodged as he sheathed his sword and ran into the woods laughing his ass off; Ino followed behind him red faced in embarrassment trying to hit her boyfriend.
"Shut up you pervert" she yelled "when I find you I'm gonna beat your ass" she shouted as Ichigo continued to chuckle.
"Kinky babe; I love it" he said as he once again tried to avoid Ino's fists of fury.
The day of the Chunin exams: Hokage's office
It was hours before the start of the chunin exams and everyone knew what that meant; the beginning of the operation to save the future. Naruto, Sarada, Hinata, Yakumo, Moro, Ichigo and Tsubaki were all standing in front of Hiruzen, Jiraya, Tsunade, Anko, Yugao, Hayate, Ibiki and Shizune. All present were stone faced as this was the beginning of the most important mission they will ever under take.
"You all know your assignments" Hiruzen said looking at the 7 ninja in front of him "what we start today is not for us but for the sake of world. You all been training hard; preparing for this great endeavor we are about to begin. When all this is said and done no one will know of it; this mission once completed will be buried burned and forgotten and left a secret from everyone that isn't in this room. I am proud of each and everyone of you; and from the bottom of this old mans heart I will say that this here is the finest group of shinobi I ever had the honor of knowing" Hiruzen said as everyone listened to him silently "last is that I ask the great Kami above to guide us on this great crusade and help us vanquish this great evil that will plague humanity" he finished.
Hiruzen then stood up and in a commanding voice spoke "I hereby order Operation: Kaishakunin a go" he said as Naruto, Sarada and the rest saluted and shouted.
"Yes, lord Hokage" they said in unison; then all 7 disappeared in a swirl of leaves as they proceeded to the first destination, the academy.
Ok people here we are the beginning of the chunin exams arc. I'd like to say that I based Moro's back story off something I personally witnessed. When I was going through desert warfare training, I learned that in places like Afghanistan and Iraq that people over there treated women and girls like property and they usually sell them off to full grown men as wives. When I found out about shit like that going on it boiled my blood but sadly as an American, I was not to get involved or intervene if I saw it. Shit like that pisses me the fuck off; that's why I wrote Moro like this because she's a girl on the warpath against Kiba who treated both Hinata and her like currency. I hope you all enjoy this chapter this is the longest one I've written and before anyone asks yes Temari is going to be joining Naruto. I always thought she was cool and I don't think she gets enough love. Ok with that said and done until next time bye.
