PART 1

Anyways we back but sorry for the delay, must be very frustrating but for those who come around I thank you. Back to it I guess

"you don't actually think that's how it going to go down" the fox replied at the blond's pathetic train of thought. "that she'd walk up and instantly forgive you and cuddle" the blond scoffed as he passed his hand through his air looking up at the figure above that intended to approach him. The scenario he played in his head before was probably the best case scenario for both of them but things normally don't work that way for him. They watched as Yugao walked past them with Tsunade holding her wrist her back, "wait…you haven't been given permission by ME to go in there" the Hokage says her grip tightening as everyone draws her attention to her, the purple haired kunoichi sends a glare at the hokage and quickly hears the unsheathing of a blade from infront of her as Sasuke unsheathes and flashes his sharingan. "let her go…You get 15 minutes" she says the earlier to Sasuke and the latter to Yugao, sheathing his sword Sasuke spares a little look to Tsunade and seeing her nod of affirmation he sheathes it back. Yugao sighs as the grip of Tsunade loses tension, from above the blond slumped down against the wall out of boredom but his eyes flicker as he sees the purple haired woman making her down. Yugao on the other hand was filled with anger and confusion, was he even the same person? Well she was going to find out.

Naruto grew aware to the disrance between them becoming ever closer as seconds went by until he could feel her presence standing over him, the blond remained seated in meditated position not moving an inch not wanting to have an encounter at all and so shutting his mind off to any outside attacks from Yugao. Standing infront of the blond and watching him as he meditated she examined his face, noticing how his hair had not changed in appearance at all still resembling that of his father. She also examined his increased height and body…puberty did him good she stated mentally. She noticed how his bangs covered his eyes, just like back then. Extending her arm she intends to move them by the side but her wrist is gripped by the Uzumaki. She noticed how tight his grip was, if it was this tight then she could imagine how he was able to take on so many of them without fail, the blond looked up to her, his piercing glare aimed directly at her. She could see the hate and anger in his eyes but most importantly the power behind them a glare that showed he would dominate and destroy anybody who stood in his way. "Naruto? Is that you" Yugao asked calmly, after moments of silence the blond nodded and release her wrist from his grasp.

"I believe they would have told you that already hence your reasoning for coming down here" he quipped noticing shake her wrist in slight plain, "I wanted to find out for myself" she solemnly stated as she bore her eyes into him. "Well then…it was me" a slap quickly made it across his face, one that was too fast to react to. "hpmh" the blond let out as he stared back at her not even fazed by her slap. "Are you crazy! Why would you?" Yugao lashed out in anger fighting the urge to hit the blond once again but noticing his indifferent face she calmed herself down and apologized. "sorry… I'm sorry"

"It's just why? This is your village! Your father's village why would you attack it? Why attack us?" she continued to stare at the blond who gave no answer. He seemed to be deep in his thoughts not even paying mind to her, it hurt…for him to be back yet somehow so far away.

"Booooooo" the villagers yelled out as a man cuffed with two Anbu's at his side made it through the village, Naruto turned to look at the villagers as he and Yugao maneuvered through the crowd. The looks they gave the man were not different from what they gave him if anything they were worse, you could feel the hostility as some of the villagers began to hurl objects at the man. Yugao wanted to get the blond out of the vicinity now as it wouldn't be long before someone spotted the blond and turned their anger on him as well. Gripping the wrists tightly so much so that it causes him to wince, unfortunately for her it was rather sooner that they bumped into a man who immediately recognized the blond. "well well! Demon…you see what happens to people like you?" Yugao turned them around only to be meet by other man, "you'll be joining him soon…demon" the memory played back in Yugao's head.

"You'll have to find out when I tell everybody else… and I think your visiting time is over! Next time you come please do bring Ramen" Naruto stated as Kakashi appeared behind her not even batting him so much as a look. "Yo" he greeted as he entered the room, Yugao shooting him up a glare before taking a look back to Naruto who had crawled into a ball she knew that was the end of their talk.

The knocks on Yugao's door became ever more annoying to her, she just wanted to drink her sake in peace! She barely ever drinks now but today more than ever she needed it as there's no sign of the knocking stopping, leaving her seat she proceeds to open her door and is met by a pair of red eyes. "Aw baby come here" Kurenai said opening up her arms inviting Yugao into a hug, one which she complied in quite easily as she buried herself into Kurenai arms and sobbed slowly. The two made their way into her home as Yugao as her sobs became more tear driven, "I'm sorry…I just heard" Kurenai said as she comforted her friend.

"I don't understand, I don't" her friend stroked back and hugged her even tighter, "sometimes people change…even Naruto" Kurenai continued to comfort as she passed her through her purple strands. Pulling away Yugao, wiped tears that roll down her cheek and showed her friend to the table in which she quickly took notice of the sake available on the table. She decided not to speak on it because she knew in the end Yugao needed it more than anyone. Sitting at the table she noticed how Yugao sluggishly moved around her kitchen bringing two classes of water infront her.

Meanwhile

"YOU FILTHY PIECE OF SHIT" Anko shouted at the blond throwing a punch straight at him, one that he easily caught and gripped upon however unlike Yugao she did not wince, rather throwing another punch at him one which again he easily caught but was unaware of the snake which shot at him and quickly unattached himself from her just close enough to dodge her attack. Before she could do more, she notices she could not move something or someone was restraining her! She looked at the blond and noticed his eyes were crimson and not their normal blue color. She immediately felt the hand of 'demon' holding her back, so that's what had her feeling immobile right? The glare the blond had was the literal embodiment of 'if looks could kill' she honestly felt something in her giddy up inside her. "You think you're hot shit huh? Well we'll see about that! Get your crumby hands off me Sasuke" she felt his arms unwrap themselves around her, "you're still too touchy" she winks at the Uchiha before leaving and shooting the blond a little glare. "cute relationship" the blond stated as he passed his hand through his hair, "but won't your girlfriend get in trouble for assaulting a prisoner and you for letting her near me"

"Nobody will know…and she's not my girlfriend" the Uchiha stated as he watched the blond from outside his 'cell'.

"You've been watching me for 24 hours, I'm sure she misses you however I don't see why she should take out that anger on me! Very Sakura like! By the way how did Sakura take your new love"

"Just shut up you dobe…"

Meanwhile

"Are you certain they received it?" a feminine voice questioned as big man signed off documents, he groaned in obvious annoyance. "Don't worry dear, in about a week or so he will be roaming alone and then we will have them kill him."

"Good…he will regret what he's done"

Back with Naruto

It's been 2 days since sensei knocked me out, still kind of bummed about it but most importantly Itachi lied and tricked him so he would be captured only for the Akatsuki to announce they're coming after him? Quite improbable but he'll have to wait and see. But Sasuke had been watching him since he set foot in here, creepy! If he was going to do that he might as well bring him food. He noticed the constant flipping of files and paper work from the Uchiha and obviously it agitated him though he never thought Sasuke would lead the Anbu but it fits him. Not that he cares.

"I need the room" Yugao said as she burst through the door and Sasuke was immediately up and about. "Come on Yugao…I don't have the-" with a sheet of paper infront of him the Uchiha squints as he reads the paper he sighs and takes his leave and now the two were alone again, not what he wanted. At all. The purple haired kunoichi turned to make sure the Uchiha had left before turning and smiling at the blond something which really did catch him off guard. "what's got you smiling?" the blond asked her as she slowly began to go through a bag she must have brought down with her. "Are you hungry?" she calmly asks the blond.

"No"

"are you sure? It's ramen"

"yes…you shouldn't be trying to feed your enemy"

"I guess you're right"

" I am and what do you want, I doubt you actually came here just because of that"

"nothing…I just wanted to make sure you'd eaten"

"That's why you needed a warrant from Tsunade?"

"I…you know what forget about I'm sorry for worrying you" her saddened voice penetrated his heart…why did it? He looked at how she still made her sluggish movements when she was down more than he noticed her figure as she proceeded to leave his line of sight and was soon replaced by the image of Sasuke who could only spare him a quick glance before taking his original seat. "Guessing the relationship isn't working out huh?" Sasuke asked with a little smirk on his face but this time his banter did not receive the quip from Naruto. "how can you be casually bantering with an enemy? That's not very Anbu like" Sasuke also dropped his bantering tone and lay back on his seat before looking back at him with all seriousness.

"because I'm one of the only people who could kill you" Naruto after these words leave the Uchihas mouth burst into cynical laughter before staring back at him, "I was man handling you even with all the other distractions present what makes you think without you'd have done better?"

"like you said they are distractions" the Uchiha said before, I was trying to not widen the fight scene to ensure the safety of the villagers, I don't think you had their interest you in head… but I'll admit you've improved slightly.

With Yugao before Sasuke comes down

"you can go…I'm done" Sasuke noticed the obvious sorrow in her voice and planted a hand on her shoulder, "If he's gone…he's gone you know, you can't force the old Naruto out of him."

"It's funny coming from you…you believed even though he left he'd never stop being Naruto and now look at him…he attacked us and you know what scares me? He seemed to be always in control of the battle and…"

"He must have gone through something that would make him change this much… but we shouldn't let our previous experiences with him judge how treat him, he attacked us so he's a rogue ninja and he's been captured so he's our enemy"

Yugao nodded at the Uchiha, his reasoning was right and his judgement was spot on but…sometimes we think with our heart with overrules all sense of reasoning and that was what was needed sometimes. "Then please ensure the enemy eats?" she said handing over the bag to him. Sasuke took it over from her and watched as she headed out

Back with Naruto in the present

"Take this and eat"
