It was another perfect day in the
forest out in the wild. But in one particular area, a familiar boy's
shout once again pierced and rustled the canopy of the forest;
causing birds and animals all around to scatter.
"Oh, come on! Teach me some new
tricks, pervy-sage!" Naruto growled in annoyance. It had been
two years since he left the Leaf village to train under the tutelage
of Jirayia. But recently – training had been relatively lax. It
irked the boy in more ways than one.
But the o

It
was not the most pleasant day to be out in a desert. Not with the
completely cloudless sky, and the golden sun glaring down on the
landscape, which made the sand so hot it was hard to walk, let alone
fight – as a certain group of kunoichi had no choice but to
acknowledge the hard way.
An
explosion rocked the small battlefield, and was the conclusive one in
of a long chase that lead them far away from the border of the much
more verdant Land of Fire, and far into the Land of Wind.

Another
failure. Naruto bawled quietly by himself in the forest when night
finally fell. He had kept his sadness inside all day long since the
lead on Sasuke and Itachi ran cold – but now he finally managed to
get away from the others so he could mourn in peace.
It
wasn't fair.
It
totally wasn't fair.
Tears
cascaded down his cheeks and dripped onto his knees, the orange
fabric darkening as it got wet – even more than it got in the rain
earlier. A rain-coat could only cover so much. It was a

"Hello,
Konoha!!" Naruto shouted as he finally returned home after years
of training with pervy-sage, "You haven't changed at all!!"
Indeed,
nothing had changed about the village since he left.. except – to
his realization – the addition of granny Tsunade's head to the
Hokage monument – and briefly allowed himself to dream of how his
face would look among those edifices, cause becoming hokage is still
part of his dreams.

that thought, the boy wondered if old Tsunad

Naruto groaned as he
slowly regained consciousness, laying on his belly with his head
spinning, his vision blurry, and something stuffed in his mouth. He
tried to reach up to remove the thing in his mouth, but his arms
refused to move, both seemingly stuck behind his back. Trying to move
his legs revealed they too didn't want to move, and as his head and
vision cleared, he quickly realized that they his hand and feet were
bound securely. Not only that, but he was also stark naked, laying on

Haruno Sakura sat alone outside the walls of Konohakagure, her mind laiden with many thiungs. But the thing that sat the heaviest was the same as always: Uchiha Sasuke. Why had he left the village? Why did he choose Orochimaru over them? Would he ever return? These questions and more floated around inside of her mind, and she couldn't figure them out.
A sudden sound from the forest caused Sakura to abandon her thoughts as she looked up, grabbing a kunai from her hip pouch as she called out "Wh-w

Sakura
sighed to herself as she sat in her bedroom, almost regretting
turning Hinata into breast fat a little over a month ago. Thankfully
Hinata's father had been out of the village at that time, though that
didn't stop Tsunade from ripping into her venomously and threatening
to devour her. Having dodged Tsunade's claws by fleeing she had
wisely not shown her face to her mentor until the next day, where
Tsunade had calmed down enough and simply settled for smacking her
straight in the face.

A
low rumbling growl echoed from Sakura's belly as she sat at her desk,
her eyes slowly drifting across the amount of paperwork that had been
stacked before her. "I knew sensei's job was tough, but this is
pushing It." she grumbled, reading a mission report and sighing
softly. "She asked me to fill in for today as she had to speak
with a councilman regarding something important. Wonder what it is?"
It
had been two weeks since Sakura had consumed and digested Naruto.
