Chapter Fourteen - Homecoming

The day before Naruto left Konoha, he had a visit from Neji and Hinata. He had received the contract from the Hyuuga clan the evening before, but hadn't signed it yet, because he was afraid to. Neji and Hinata had found out the details of the contract that morning and had rushed over to Naruto's apartment to try to stop him from signing it. They both made Naruto realize that he doesn't have to give away his own future to help the branch family.

Naruto told them about how he took off Sasuke's curse seal and that he could do it for Neji too. Neji proposed that Naruto use that skill as a threat, to get the Hyuuga main family to take it off themselves. If the clan would do that, then Naruto would become a member of the Hyuuga clan, but wouldn't be forced to marry or father children unless he wanted to do that himself in the future. All three agreed that this was a good plan and after Neji and Hinata left him, Naruto then headed over to the Hokage Tower to tell Tsunade about all of it. Tsunade reminded Naruto of his goal to be the next Hokage and that they could use that against the Hyuuga clan, also. Tsunade went with Naruto to back him up, telling Hyuuga Hiashi that Naruto was her chosen successor. Naruto explained his new terms on what he wanted from the Hyuuga clan.

Hiashi desiring to at least have Naruto on their side and part of their clan, hoping that he could later get the boy to change his mind about having children, persuaded the elders into agreeing with Naruto's terms. Hiashi had already felt bad about Neji anyway, and he really wanted a way to have Neji be the next clan leader since he was the strongest of their youth. After a new contract was drawn up and all parties agreed on it and signed it, Naruto became a member of the Hyuuga clan and changed his family name to Amarutsu-Hyuuga. The curse seals were taken off all the branch family members and both families were combined into one. Neji was then named as the successor to the title of clan leader and would have to start training for his future role.

During the time that Naruto was away from his village, all of his friends became chuunin. Neji, Shino and Sasuke went on to become jounin. Hinata and Chouji started training to become medical ninjas, just like Sakura. Tsunade and Shizune took turns training the three. Neji left his team and went into Anbu to get more experience. Shino became a hunter-nin, leaving his old team. Shikamaru taught at the Academy, occasionally working with Temari, who was now a jounin and would travel back and forth between the Sand and Leaf villages. She worked for the academies of both villages. Ino, together with Chouji and Asuma, continued to do missions. Kiba and Hinata worked with Kurenai as a team doing missions. Since Sakura didn't have her teammates anymore, she concentrated the majority of her time in training, working at the hospital and at the Academy. She would sometimes go on missions with Lee, Tenten and Gai, since they didn't have a medic nin in their team. Kakashi went on to do solo missions or sometimes partnered up with other jounin. Iruka kept teaching at the Academy.

Sasuke joined the Anbu, like Neji. Both teens became more friendlier toward each other. Despite his goal to kill his brother, Sasuke had started to enjoy the process of getting stronger, more than brooding about his brother and wanting to run off to hunt him down and kill him. He had seen how much he had let his hate consume his life, time and training helped to mellow him out a bit and give him something else to think about. He also realized he missed Naruto. When the blond had left, he didn't think he would care that much. He felt that the other was an unneeded distraction and also would overshadow his own achievements. He had felt resentment and jealousy toward his teammate, despite that though, he still cared if Naruto lived or died.

When Sasuke heard that Naruto was coming back and should be back sometime that week, he found himself thinking of what changes there would be in the blond. What will Naruto be able to do now? How much stronger was he? Will he still be the happy, friendly, immature person he was before? Sasuke hoped the blond had grown up some in personality, but he realized he missed the boy's smile and wanted to see that again.

Gaara had defeated his father in a battle for the title of Kazekage, the red head had been the Kazekage for a year now. He had brought the alliance between Sand and Leaf closer together and more trusting of each other. He knew that his village needed such a strong alliance to keep peace and to grow their economy. A lot of changes had been made by Gaara, and the Sand villagers and ninja had grown to respect the boy and some even felt affection toward him.

Gaara had missed Naruto a lot, he had thought of him nearly everyday during their first year of separation. At first he had thought his feelings were maybe becoming romantic in nature. Gaara had read some of his sister's romance books and had seen some similarities in how the characters seem to feel about each other and how he felt for Naruto. At first, he actually believed he was in love with his friend. But after some more time passed, he realized that even though he loved Naruto more than as just a friend, his feelings were more like close brothers would have, not like lovers. He realized it because of the new closeness he felt toward Kankuro. Gaara's feelings for Naruto and Kankuro were the same, and he didn't feel romantic toward Kankuro, not one little bit. So now that Gaara knew he thought of Naruto as a younger brother, one that he loved a lot, he looked forward to seeing him again and finding out how he had grown up over the last few years.

Various members of the Akatsuki, came after Naruto during his time away from Konoha. Some of them went away from their battles with the blond, severely injured almost to the point of death. Kisame was one of those people. Itachi, still being strong enough to fight against Naruto without the boy killing him, but not strong enough to capture the fox container, was intrigued by the boy's power and the fact that the Uchiha's were descendants of Naruto's clan, the Amarutsu. He was beginning to no longer care about the fox, realizing that the bloodline limit of the container was more powerful and more useful. He still wanted to capture Naruto, but he saw that just attacking him, was not the way to get him. It was a waste of his time.

As for Naruto, he thought about what power he could get from the fox. Despite what Jiraiya thought he should do, which was to forget the fox even existed. Naruto felt that would be a waste. He had a bloodline limit that was powerful enough to control the fox, his father had said that was why he felt Naruto was the best candidate as the container. Naruto had no intention though of merging with the fox or letting it take control of him. Naruto could take off the seal that Orochimaru put on him and since he knew he could control the fox's chakra...he decided to do it. He also decided he was going to reinforce the strength of the cage surrounding the fox to make sure it could never get out. He only wanted it's power, he didn't want to be friends or talk with it.

The week before Naruto and Jiraiya left the Earth country to head back to the village of Konoha, Naruto took off the seal that Orochimaru had put on him. He had felt the fox's chakra then start leaking out of it's original seal and quickly used his own chakra to convert it to a more stable and less controlling state. He put up a strong barrier around the cage of the fox and stopped the leak from flowing out on it's own. He wanted to be able to control when and how much of the fox's chakra he would allow to get into his own chakra paths. He didn't tell Jiraiya what he had done. He wanted to prove to himself first, that he was able to handle it without losing any of his humanness.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Naruto and Jiraiya walked into the village of Konoha, Naruto being the more excited of the two.

“I can't wait to see everyone, Ero-sennin! Who should I go see first?” He wasn't really asking Jiraiya that, he was asking himself.

Jiraiya not knowing that, answered him. “You go see Tsunade now, brat. I'm sure she wants to see how you've grown.”

Naruto looked at the old man and frowned. “I can see her later. I was talking about my friends. I think I'll go see Iruka first though, get him to treat me to some ramen.” He grinned.

“Go do what you want, brat, just don't forget to go see Tsunade later, she'll have both our heads if you forget her. I'm going to go do some research now. See you later.” The white haired sannin waved at the boy and turned down another street that led to one of his favorite places to do research at.

Naruto headed to the Academy. When he got there, he looked for Iruka and was told by one of the teachers there, that the man was in the staff room. He pointed the way for the blond. Naruto knocked on the door and then walked in. When he saw the familiar face of his old sensei, a huge grin spread over his face and he ran over to Iruka and hugged him. “Iruka-sensei!”

The brown haired chuunin hugged his former student back, smiling too. Then he unwrapped his arms from around the boy and pushed him back, so he could get a good look at him. Naruto is taller, he's actually only an inch or so shorter than me now. He's stopped wearing orange too, thank goodness. He didn't cut his hair either, he's wearing it in a braid. He looks very different from the boy that I taught in the Academy. But his smile is the same. “You've really grown, Naruto. How have you been?”

“I've been doing pretty good, Iruka-sensei. Jiraiya taught me a lot of new jutsus and he let me sign a contract to summon frogs, like he did with my father.”

“I wouldn't mind seeing some of these new skills of your's someday soon. Looks like you have been eating well enough, you're thin but not as thin as you used to be. I hope you have been eating more than ramen these past three years.” He tried to sound stern, but couldn't keep from smiling at the boy. He was so proud of how Naruto was growing up.

“Sure, when you have time, I'd love to show you what I can do. As for ramen, well, no, I've been eating more than just ramen, but I do still love it the best. I was hoping if you have the time, we can go over to Ichiraku's. It has the best ramen!” He looked hopefully at his former teacher.

Iruka laughed. “Alright, I have finished here for the day and I do feel a bit hungry myself. Why don't I treat us both to some ramen, eh?”

“Great!” Naruto hugged the chuunin again and then took him by the arm, nearly dragging him out of the office.

Iruka just laughed and let the boy have his way.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After Naruto and Iruka had finished eating and were leaving the ramen stand, the blond nearly ran into someone that had been been about to go through the flaps of the entrance to the stand. Both boys stood in front of each other and stared in surprise.

The dark haired teen got his voice back first. “Hi Naruto. So you're back.”

Naruto got over his surprise and then smiled at his old teammate. “Sasuke! Yeah, I got back not too long ago.”

Iruka smiled at both his former students. “Hello Sasuke.”

The raven haired teen looked at Iruka and nodded to him in greeting. “Hello Iruka.” Unlike Naruto, Sasuke had stopped referring to Iruka as his sensei. He not only outranked him now, but it had been quite some time since the man had been his teacher.

“Well, I enjoyed sitting and talking with you again Naruto, but I do have to go to the Hokage Tower right now and do some paperwork there. I hope to see you again soon.”

Naruto turned to Iruka and gave him a hug and then released him. “I had fun seeing you again too, Iruka-sensei. Maybe we can do this again later this week.”

“Of course. Well, goodbye Naruto and Sasuke.” Iruka waved to them and then left them alone.

“Even though you have already ate, Naruto, would you mind sitting with me while I eat. I want to find out how you have been.” The normally stoic ninja had a half-smile on his face and his eyes told Naruto that he was very interested in talking with him.

Naruto was surprised. Sasuke has really changed. He's not acting cold toward me and he wants to talk. Wow, this is so strange. But I'm glad he's changed. “Sure.” Naruto sat back down at the counter after Sasuke took a seat.

Sasuke gave the waitress his order. It was a new waitress and not Ayame. He turned to look at Naruto. I can't believe how much he's changed. I'm pleased that he quit wearing orange. He looks more like a serious ninja now. And the black makes his skin tone, hair and eyes stand out more. Sasuke shifted in his seat. A blush started forming on his cheeks and he turned away from looking at the blond. What is happening to me? Why am I feeling weird around him? He cleared his throat. “So, Naruto, you must have learned a lot in the last three years.”

Naruto had noticed Sasuke seemed to be uncomfortable and had blushed. What's wrong with Sasuke? Why is he acting like that? “Um, yeah, I learned a lot of new things. How about you?”

The waitress came back and put a bowl of miso ramen in front of Sasuke and then left. “I've been getting stronger. I've also learned more about genjutsu and how to use it with the Mangekyo Sharingan. Kakashi has let me use him as a guinea pig.”

Naruto looked with surprise at his old teammate. “What? You mean Kakashi actually lets you experiment on him?” That is so cool of him though! Kakashi isn't afraid of anything.

Sasuke managed to eat his food and talk with Naruto, still maintaining good table manners. “Yes, he wants to help me learn how to use it and no one else would want to do that.”

I would. But he doesn't need me if he has Kakashi. “I see you are a jounin now. Who else is, out of our friends?”

Our friends. There was a time when I didn't want any friends. Naruto showed me that you can have friends and still be strong and powerful. “Shino and Neji. If you count the Sand siblings as friends, then Temari and Kankuro also.”

“Out of our Leaf ninja friends then, only you, Shino and Neji became jounins? Everyone else chuunin?” Naruto was surprised that Shikamaru hadn't become jounin too.

“That's right. Sakura, Hinata and Chouji are now medic nins and serve in that capacity on missions.”

“Cool! I knew Sakura was studying for it and Hinata was always making healing potions, but I'm surprised about Chouji.”

“Well, Chouji wanted to be able to do more for his team. That's why he did it. You know about Gaara yet?”

“Yeah, I know he's the Kazekage now. I learned about it a few months after it happened, when I was near the Hidden Grass village. People had been talking about it. I'm so happy for him and I can't wait to see him again. Jiraiya never wanted to go near the Sand village. He said it was too hot and dry there. “

Sasuke still didn't like Gaara that much, but he did respect him, because of how he had changed things in the Sand village for the better. He heard that the red head was now respected there. “He's been doing a good job as Kazekage from what I've heard.”

Naruto looked at Sasuke in surprise. He just complimented Gaara! Is this really Sasuke? Then Naruto smiled at him. “Sasuke you have changed quite a lot. I'm really happy to see you like this.”

Sasuke turned to look at the blond. He could see the sincerity in the blue eyes. “Yes, I have changed some. I still will kill Itachi one day, but I'm not letting him destroy my life. Before I was becoming just like him, I didn't even see it. But you helped to open my eyes, Naruto.”

“Me?” Naruto was surprised. What did I do?

“Yes, you. I realized I was so self-absorbed and didn't see that there were others that had as much loneliness and pain in their lives too. Especially you. You had to grow up without your parents and carrying around a demon inside you. Yet, you smiled and made friends. You helped others and didn't let the bad things that had happened to you, consume you. I realized I could become more like that. I could take control of my own life and make it better.”

“Sasuke, I'm glad you finally saw that and changed your life. I really like you so much better this way. You look content with your life and your voice is no longer cold. You need to smile more though!” Naruto grinned.

“Hn. I'm not about to go around smiling all the time like you, dobe.”

“Hey! You were doing good for awhile there until you started with the dobe thing again!” He mock glared at the dark haired boy. Naruto couldn't be mad at him though, because he could tell that Sasuke had said it in jest. Sasuke actually has a sense of humor now!

Sasuke looked away from Naruto, so that he wouldn't see the smile on his face.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Later that day after Naruto had went around the village visiting his former classmates and friends, he headed to the Hokage Tower to make his last visit for the day. After he got to the Hokage office, he knocked on the door. Instead of barging in like he did in the past, Naruto had learned to respect the privacy of others better. Too many embarrassing moments of walking into Ero-sennin's hotel rooms, had taught him that patience was much better than having your mind scarred for life. He knocked again, louder this time when he heard no answer.

“Come in, dammit!”

Naruto opened the door and stepped into the office. He saw the Hokage sitting at her desk, staring at him. He closed the door behind him and walked up to stand in front of her desk. “Hey Tsunade ba-sama!”

“Hmm, you sound like Naruto, and you seem to have learned some manners now, but where's the orange, brat?”

Naruto laughed. “You want me to go change?”

“Hell no!” She got up from her chair and walked around the desk. When she got to Naruto, she pulled him into a big hug. Thankfully Naruto was now tall enough to avoid having his face crushed into her big breasts.

Naruto hugged back. “It's good to see you again, too.” He laughed.

Tsunade let go of the blond boy and stepped back from him. “You are one good looking boy, you know that? A few more years and I might forget I think of you like a little brother.” She winked at him mischievously, then walked back around her desk and sat down again.

Naruto was blushing, but also was a bit disturbed at the the thought of Tsunade interested in him that way. That is just so eww! She's way too old for me. She's a female pervert. “Um, Tsunade-sama, where I am going to stay now? My old apartment was rented out and I don't want to live with the Hyuuga's. Way too crowded there.” Actually I'm worried they might try to steal my sperm or something even more horrible than that!

“Ah.” The Hokage opened a drawer in her desk and rummaged around in it until finding what she was looking for. She placed a set of keys on the desk in front of the boy. “Take those keys, they will get you into the Kazuma compound and you can live in your parent's old house. There are training grounds there that you can use too. I'm sure there are many things lying around the house that will be of interest to you.”

Naruto was excited, he snatched up the keys and turned to rush off, then thought of something. He turned back to look at the Hokage. “Um, where is my home at? I've never been there before.”

Tsunade looked again in one of her drawers and pulled out a map of the village. She circled the place on the map where the Kazuma compound was located. She then handed the map to Naruto. “Use that.”

Naruto took it and then smiled with happiness at the woman. “Thank you, Tsunade ba-um sama!” Then he turned around quickly, rushed to the door and opened it, then forgetting to close it behind him, he ran down the hall, in a rush to get to his new home.
