"NARUTO!"
"SASUKE!"
Naruto and Sasuke's fight was at its climax.
Naruto was raging with Kurama in the mix, with Rasengan.
Sasuke was in Cursed Mark Stage 2, with Chidori turning black due to the cheap sage energy.
A big explosion happened, and I had to cover my face from the shockwaves.
Tch. Naruto and Sasuke have surpassed me already, relying on cheats.
Dust cleared, and Sasuke came out on top. The clouds cleared up a bit, and the sunlight came directly on Naruto's face.
Sasuke leaned in, monologuing in his mind while staring at Naruto's unconscious form.
So, I sneaked up behind Sasuke, and delivered a Gentle Chop on his neck, knocking him unconscious.
Sasuke kissed Naruto.
Is it their 2nd or 3rd? Because those filler episodes might have not happened.
Naruto clearly has way more chemistry with Sasuke, than Hinata who is a non-existant doormat.
Using gentle fist, I closed all of Sasuke's tenketsu points, tied him up with a rope, and shoved a Katsuyu down his throat.
"Track him if he escapes again."
She seemed like she wanted to protest, but is too polite to decline.
I activated Byakugan to scout for any danger, and deeming it safe, I forced Naruto to wake up using Gentle Fist.
"Congratulations. Sasuke just kissed you and is coming back home."
I said, and he made a face.
Then, started vomiting.
I frowned at the over-reaction.
"Get up and carry Sasuke. It's not safe out here."
"Yeah. Dattebayo!"
Naruto slung Sasuke over his shoulder easily, as if the previous battle didn't affect him anymore.
And I already want to go back to village, buy a new house and rest.
We walked back towards the village, and encountered Gaara carrying Lee, Temari and Shikamaru on his sand.
"Mission complete."
I said, and we hopped on Gaara's sand.
"You guys okay?"
Shikamaru said, "Yeah. But that was one heck of annoying Kekkai Genkai. All of Orochimaru's goons are weird."
Lee nodded rapidly.
"Thankfully, with Shikamaru's genius, we were able to break out Temari-san from the crystal!"
Well, I am also curious, but I will get to know about it during the report to Tsunade.
"Her body?"
"50 feet under the ground."
Gaara replied, super composed.
Damn. What a character development he has gone through. Though it would have been even better if he had killed Hiashi and Hinata when he was psycho.
The journey back to Konoha was smooth.
And we reported the situation to Tsunade, who has just finished treating Kiba and Chouji.
Apparently, to free Temari from the Crystal Prison without harming her, Shikamaru memorized the handsigns Guren used to trap a Sand clone of Gaara, and then used Shadow Possession Jutsu to force her to use the handsigns in reverse on Temari's crystal prison.
Wow.
Tsunade looked at me proudly, "You did well on your first leading mission. All of you did well."
I let out a smile.
"Alright. Naomi, come to the office tomorrow, your living arrangements are made. Leave Sasuke here. I will personally see if he tries to run away again.
Aside from Suna representatives, everyone else, disperse!"
So, we left the office. I bid Lee bye-bye, and went to the apartment that Tsunade gave me. Near the Hokage building, far away from Hyuga clan.
The only problem? My new apartment was next to Naruto.
"Hey! Did Sasuke really—"
"Yeah. He was too into it that I got uncomfortable and knocked him out. I think he has a fetish of doing it on sleeping, or worse unconscious people?"
Naruto shuddered.
"And girls probably gave him so much attention that he has gone to the other side."
Saying that, I entered my new apartment. Soon, Sasuke's deviant nature will spread in the village.
Hmmm, having my apartment next to Naruto might not be that bad. I can tell him how much of a scumbag Hinata is. Ruin her in his eyes completely.
Heh. I wonder how much devasted Hinata will be if it turns NarutoXSasuke?
I plopped on the bed, grinning just thinking about it.
Well, it will be the least painful way I will make Hinata suffer.
The apartment is small, with only basic things. I haven't gotten the money from Hiashi yet, and moving into a mansion that I will build, with swimming pool and stuff... it will take a long time.
But for now, it is good.
Quiet.
Peaceful.
I could get used to this.
*Snore*
Well, atleast until I heard Naruto's snore from the other side of wall.
I can't wait to get my own mansion.
