Political Alliance
Chapter 22: Reunion Team 7 made their way through it village, it was still a little odd seeing people take notice of them but they were slowly getting use to it. They also noticed a few more things, that was that people seemed to have taken to wearing colors associated with the team. A lot of boys were wearing blues, whites and lots of orange apparently. The girls took to not only wearing more red but Sakura noticed that several young girls had pink highlights. It was kind of flattering after all, besides he mother there was no one else in Konoha had pink hair. Eventually they found themselves to the mayor’s residence, wasn’t really that impressive given that this was mainly a fishing village. They were led into the building immediately and into the office of the new mayor. It wasn’t much, as the paint even looked fresh. The mayor turned out to be pretty average looking, an older man with thinning grey hair but looked like he spent most of his time working outside with a deep tan and weathered features. “Ah, I’m so glad that Konoha was able to send the team I asked for,” the mayor smiled as he got up behind his desk walking towards them. He walked with a bit of a limp it would seem from his left leg. “I take it you’re the mayor of the town and our employer,” Kakashi stated. “Ah that would be me, I’m Hiroshi Uchiyamada, we haven’t had a mayor since the dark times as Gato killed the last one. But since I can’t fish like I used to, my wife thought politics would be the way to go.” The man laughed at his own personal joke. “Hell, I thought this would be easy but we never thought that the ghost of our past would come back to us like this.” “What can you tell me about this man that you said in your report?” Kakashi asked. Hiroshi sighed as he sat back down behind his desk, “When I heard the story at first I didn’t want to believe it but honestly from all the reports I felt that it was best to be on the safe side.” “As you know thanks to your efforts we regained our pride, when this man calling himself Cain showed up and demanded tribute the people were not going to stand for it. After all, we had just gotten free of one tyrant and didn’t want to be put under the thumb of another. But it would seem that he learned a few things from Gato.” “Like what?” Naruto asked. “It would see he brought his own ninja as well,” the mayor sighed. “When the people were gathering around them, four cloaked people showed up out of nowhere, they threw several of those knife weapons that you were seen carried.” “You mean these?” Naruto asked pulling out a kunai. “Yes, like that. Well we may be brave people and we can stand up to normal criminals now, but there is no way we can handle ninja. Several people were injured in the first few moments and many shops were damaged. It could have been worse but apparently he was giving us a warning. The tribute he wanted is much less then what Gato did to us, we could still live on much better but we all agreed not to bow down again to a man like that.” “So you called for ninja to fight the ninja,” Kakashi surmised after all civilians couldn’t handle those trained to fight and kill since children. “Then we’ll just kick their asses and that Cain guy’s as well!” Naruto yelled out grinned ear to ear as usual. The mayor smiled at the boy’s spirit, “That is what we hoped for.” “Can you tell us where the ninja come from?” Temari asked speaking up after hearing the story. It would help to know which village they were dealing with or if they were renegades. “I’m sorry but no one could get a good look, they appeared on the buildings and no one could see much of what they looked like,” he told her. Kakashi thought about that as he had been thinking the same thing as Temari. This would complicate things a bit more as he was certain the enemy would know of them, but not knowing who they were up against, that put them at a disadvantage. They couldn’t even be sure of the numbers, as four could have been anything from all of them or some of them. After the meeting with the mayor they were on their way to look in on some old friends. Naruto was nearly bouncing by the time they got to the house. Temari looked at the place, a two story wooden home. It looked like it could use some new paint but it looked kind of homey. She looked to Naruto and she couldn’t remember the last time he seemed so excited, then again these people where friends he had made and hadn’t seen since he left. She gave a small smile at how happy he looked at the moment. Naruto himself wanted to race up to the front door and knock but he wanted to wait for everyone. He wondered how the family had been doing since he had been gone, especially how Inari was. When they first got here the boy had been so deep in his own pain he lashed out at the world. But the last he had seen him, he had a new life in him. That made Naruto happy, he knew what it was like to live in the darkness, he had overcame it. He had done so with Inari and Gaara, although he wasn’t too sure how he did that, he was just glad for it. It just felt like a personal victory for him whenever that happened. By the time they came to the front door Naruto knocked and waited, he heard someone walking to the door. “I’ll be right there,” A woman’s voice called out, he knew it was Tsunami. Tsunami opened the door she had been working on a few things to fix in the home. Ever since her husband had died she had to take care of such things, with her father working and Inari too young for such work. She didn’t mind it she took pride in her family and home. Plus with all the new merchants in the village and trade, she could finally get decent materials for the home and for the meals. That last thing she expected to see were the heroes of the village outside her door when she opened it. “Hey Tsunami-san!” Naruto said happily to her. “Naruto! And the rest of you what are you doing back here?” Tsunami was overjoyed at the sight of them all. “We’re back here on a mission,” Kakashi told her, “Apparently we still have to deal with the fallout of the last time we were here.” “Oh, I’ve heard about that, but I didn’t expect you all to come back,” Tsunami looked to Temari noticing a new member of the team. “Oh I’m sorry, who are you?” “Temari Uzumaki,” Temari said to her, “I’m the new member of Team 7.” “Oh, I didn’t know that Naruto had-“ Tsunami started up before Temari interrupted her. “I’m not his sister,” The ex-Suna nin sighed she was getting sick and tired of this. Was it the blonde hair that did it? Sure blonde wasn’t a very common hair color but still, she didn’t look anything like him beyond that. “Um, she’s actually my wife,” Naruto grinned nervously as he starched the back of his head. It was kind of funny seeing Tsunami’s eyes widen so large that they might fall out of her head. The last thing she expected was to have Naruto married at his young age, although the girl seemed to be a bit older but pretty. After the shock wore off she invited them inside, thankfully it was fully explained to her how Naruto could be married. She didn’t know that ninja villages had such politics after hearing the whole story. Then again her county didn’t have any ninja of their own, and this was just a fishing village. She had no way to know that the great nations were so much more complicated. Although through the story she did notice that things between Naruto and Temari, the two would share looks and she noticed the closeness with each other. She had to smile seeing them, they were obviously close, which was nice for a political marriage. “So, what can you tell us about what is going on?” Kakashi asked as soon as they had finished their own story. “I thought you were already at the mayor’s office?” Tsunami asked. “We were, but it never hurts to get other sides to the story. To get the whole picture it’s best to get multiple sources, that way you can get information that might have been left out by accident or design.” Kakashi explained never once looking up from his book. “Makes sense to me,” Temari stated, “Plus officials only get the information after it’s been disseminated by others.” “Huh?” Naruto blinked. “She means after a bunch of people have looked through all the information and it’s been cut up and only the high points talked about,” Sakura explained as she guessed that Naruto had never heard of the word ‘disseminate’, then again it wasn’t really an average word. “Oh, that makes sense,” Naruto figured that the people in charge needed to know only the major points or they would be at work all day. He just put that piece of information away when he was Hokage one day. “Well anyway what I know is that some time after you left a man named Cain showed up,” Tsunami told them pretty much the same story as the mayor. There were a few things as she had been in the village market when the man showed up. So they got a firsthand account of the man, and those that had come with him. But nothing much else that they could find out, she hadn’t seen the symbols of the ninja either, although Kakashi knew there was little chance of anything new, it was best to be certain. “Hey mom, we’re home!” Inari’s voice was heard as footsteps came closer to the room. Inari came into the room with a small bag of new food while his grandfather was behind him with the larger bag. The two had been asked to get some new items at the market for the home. As soon as Inari saw who was in their home the little boy’s face lit up. He dropped his bag and ran up and hugged Naruto. “Naruto, you’re back!” Naruto laughed as he ruffled the boy’s head through his ever present hat. “Hey there, nice to see you again.” “Well I take it that you guys are back for the trouble that’s been happening,” Tazuna said as he had heard that the new mayor was going to hire some protection. Calling in Team 7 was a good political move as it would be popular with the people and it was a group that could be trusted. The old bridge builder, had even been offered the job as he had been the one to build the great bridge and brought the team here in the first place. But he was a builder, not a damn Politian, and he would have been miserable in that job. He wasn’t sure on the new mayor that had been elected but this gave him a good mark in, Tazuna’s book. It was then he noticed the young blonde woman with them. She had that ninja air about her but she was a tad different. The girl’s posture was straight and she had this air of authority about her. “So who’s the new girl?” Tazuna asked. Temari sighed as she got the feeling she would have to go through this many times, thankfully she was saved going through it by Naruto. “This is Temari-chan, my wife, she’s pretty great isn’t she?” Naruto beamed as Temari blushed a bit. She quickly tried to hide it, she wasn’t used to being praised like that to strangers, plus it was Naruto doing the praising. “Huh, you got married!?” Inari said his eyes as wide as his mother’s had been. Naruto chuckled as he rubbed the back of his head, “Yeah…kind of a long story…” After going through it yet again, they all got caught up on what had been going on in the villages. The married between Naruto and Temari as well as her new status as a Leaf ninja was the major topic. Another was how Tazuna had started up new contracts for two more bridges as well as materials that he made being sent to the rebuilding of Konoha. Naruto had never thought about where all the building materials came from but given Tazuna’s reputation it would seem he was in high demand. Plus he also apparently gave Konoha a slight cut in price as the village was responsible for their good fortunes. Inari had started up school again as they finally got the money to pay for teachers again, he didn’t seem to like it much but he had been making new friends lately. He also said how he wanted to follow in his grandfather’s footsteps and become a great builder himself, much to the old man’s pride. Tsunami apparently had also started up a small group made up of other house wives. It didn’t really have a name, mainly they helped to organize clean up and restoration of the village as well as helping others get back on their feet. Team 7 was amazed at how much had been done since they had last came here. But soon the sun was starting to fall and Kakashi said they had to make plans on where to stay. “Well I’m certain that I can find some room for you all,” Tsunami offered, it really wasn’t a big deal for them all to put up with Team 7 again. “Actually we’ll be staying at the inn this time,” Kakashi told her. “Last time you were targeted because of your father, but if we stay here then you’ll all be targets again. I’m sure that our arrival hasn’t gone unnoticed and I would prefer a place that wasn’t your property. If a battle broke out I can’t guarantee your safety as you’re not our clients. Plus I would rather not have you all used as hostages.” Tsunami remembered how those two men had come to take her and her son, they had Inari and was threatening to kill him. She had even threaten to kill herself to prevent anything happening to her son. She really didn’t want to go through that all over again, if Naruto hadn’t shown up…she didn’t want to think on it. “But don’t worry, I’m sure you’ll be seeing us,” Kakashi smiled at them all. -Village Inn- Later that night Naruto went into his shared room with Temari, he looked around but so far no one was around, he went to the bathroom and opened the door. He froze as he saw his young wife’s back as she was sitting up in the tub drying herself off. He gulped as he gazed at her smooth back, her hair still wet, she always looked good like that he thought to himself. “O-oh sorry, I didn’t know you were still in here.” He blushed at the sight of her, even though they were married and had been intimate on their wedding night, it was still a little nervous around her like this. He just wasn’t totally used to it but it was getting there. Temari herself was still getting use to the idea of her husband seeing her naked. She looked to the wall to hide her own blush. “It’s okay I was just finishing up, you can bath now.” She got out of the tub and wrapped the towel around herself. Naruto swallowed as he nodded his head, he had his own night clothes and other things under one arm as he couldn’t help but look at her. She was still very pretty and he knew exactly what was under that towel. He blushed a bit more remembering how he knew and suddenly felt his throat dry. He also really liked it when her hair was loose like it was now. His eyes traveled down to her legs and he had never really been the type of guy to really look at a girl’s parts before. But Temari was making him into a leg man recently. They were so long and looked very nice to him. Temari noticed him staring and felt her face heat up, she wasn’t used to being viewed like this but it felt nice to be desired. Normally no one in her village would even dare to think any impure thoughts about her, plus those that did were the lecherous types and usually a hard glare from her made them quickly move away. But with Naruto it was different, he didn’t see her as just some kind of object, he saw her as a woman. She was reminded again of today and how girls would look at him and blush, giggle and make eyes at him. She didn’t like that, this was her man, but Naruto never once took advantage of it. He only had eyes for her and that made her happy too. He was totally loyal and she knew she could trust him with anything, it was the other girls she didn’t trust. “Uh…Temari-chan?” Temari snapped out of her thoughts looking at Naruto who had stopped taking his clothing off. She could see his bare top and the ever present necklace he wore. “Are you staying?” Naruto asked blushing a bit. Temari felt embarrassed, he might be thinking she wanted to watch, although a part of her mind said that wasn’t a bad idea. She didn’t think this was the time or place. “Sorry my mind was somewhere else.” She quickly exited the room as she dried off and put on a robe and waited for him. Naruto was enjoying himself in the bathtub, he had refilled it with some more hot water and sighed as he sat in it. So far this had been a unique day, it was nice seeing Inari and his family again but he couldn’t get over how weird it was being looked at as a hero. Sure, he had always dreamed of this moment and said how he would be great one day. But he never knew what it would be like, yeah it felt great but he would have to get used to it. His mind also went back to Temari who had been in this tub before him. He swallowed at the thought of her naked body had been here. Sure they had gotten very close but it still embarrassed them at times to be so intimate with each other. Although he did smile at the memories of when they were together alone, he wondered if all marriages were like this? Then again, he had only known Temari only a short time while most couples knew each other for much longer. But still, he was enjoying married life. It was nice to have someone that you could turn to, someone that would walk beside you for your life. For the first time the last piece of loneliness that he felt in his heart was gone. As he made friends that loneliness grew smaller and smaller but a small amount stayed. It hadn’t bothered him but with Temari he couldn’t feel even that small piece anymore. He sighed as he thought of the things they had done and all the things they would do together in the future. When the water turned cold be decided he had been in there long enough. Naruto changed into a robe that the hotels usually had and walked into the room, she saw that Temari had the futon out and prepared. “You didn’t fall asleep in the water did you?” Temari asked as he had been in there for awhile. “I was thinking of checking to make sure you didn’t drown.” Naruto got a grin on his face as an idea came to him, “You know we’re married, you don’t need excuses to see me naked or join me you could have just asked.” Temari’s face blushed full red at what he said, “B-baka! Don’t say such perverted things like that!” Naruto couldn’t help but laugh at her expression, “I’m just teasing Temari-chan, but you look so cute like that.” Temari didn’t say anything as she turned her face to avoid him looking at her blush. “J-just get into bed.” Naruto chuckled as they got into the same futon, ever since that night they had made love they slept in the same bed. It was then that he learned something personal about Temari, she was a cuddler. Either with a pillow or him, he remembered waking up one morning as she had pulled his face into her breasts. Not totally a bad experience but it was a shock to wake up like that. He slipped under the sheets as he stared up into the ceiling. “Hey, Temari-chan?” “Yeah?” “I’m really glad things worked out like they did,” He said smiling, “and I kind of look forward to how things go with us.” Temari felt herself smile as she turned around and Naruto move his arm to let her get closer. She placed her head on his shoulder and wrapped an arm around his waist. It always felt nice being like this, with him so close to her. She had never felt such closeness in her life until recently and she too was looking forward to their future together. “Me too, Naruto-kun.” She whispered as she started to feel her body relax against him. She could hear his heart beat and it sounded like it was going a little fast. Temari smirked as she thought of a way to get back at him. “Is someone excited?” “M-Maybe a bit,” Naruto blushed a bit, it wasn’t easy to not get excited. The robes weren’t too thick and he could feel her breasts pressing up against him. Temari smiled as she not moved herself to be over top of him, Naruto looked to see her robe slowly come undone a little. He could see her cleavage at the moment and any thoughts of sleep were being pushed away. Temari noticed where his eyes were going and smiled a little, it always felt nice when he noticed her body when they were alone. Sure she had been a little jealous of all the attention he had been getting from all the girls. She had noticed a few of the boys giving her some looks but she ignored them, civilians didn’t interests her in the bit. Besides no one could match up to Naruto, plus another thing she had been thinking about. Although they slept together they hadn’t been intimate since their first night as a married couple. They had been on missions and it was never the right time or place. But they were alone in a hotel room and to be honest, she wanted to feel like a wife again. To be loved by her husband was an experience that she was learning that was addictive. “You know...I’m kind of not tired at the moment,” she told him. “R-really?” Naruto said nervously. Temari nodded as she learned down and kissed him gently, she felt his hands on her waist as their kiss deepened. Naruto felt himself get more and more awake as he had one hand move down to her ass and gently kneaded it. He felt her moan into his mouth as she gently pulled back from him. “Do you have any ideas on what we can do before we feel tired?” She asked him with a smirk. Sakura yawed as she traveled the hallway, she had gone for a bit of a walk feeling a little restless. Now she was going to her own room, it was odd having her own room for a change. Usually she would share with the others but they were given a very good deal on the rooms. Kakashi and Sasuke were sharing one, Temari and Naruto were given their own room and that left her the odd one out. She didn’t mind, Naruto did snore and apparently Temari was a heavy sleeper as she had never noticed. She smirked at that, Temari was lucky for that she wasn’t sure how she could deal with sleeping with a husband that did that. She blushed at the thought of something like that, she hoped that now Naruto wasn’t always trying to ask her out she could concentrate more on Sasuke. But he just seemed as cold as usual. She sighed, she was getting stronger as a ninja but not getting any closer to getting Sasuke to like her as a woman. She passed by one of the doors when she thought she heard a muffled sound. She looked and it was Naruto and Temari’s room. Was there trouble already? She remembered how Kakashi said that if the enemy knew where they were, they might attack. She learned towards the door to make sure she hadn’t heard wrong, although she would soon regret that. She could finally make out the sounds as well as some talking. “Oh god right there, that’s the spot.” Temari’s muffled voice could be heard. “This feels even better than last time,” Naruto said back, Temari moaned something that Sakura couldn’t make out but her eyes widened as she suddenly realized what was going on. She pulled her head back and covered her mouth from making any kind of noise. Her face was all red as her eyes were wide in shock. She quickly ran to her room and hoped that she could forget what she had heard, she never meant to over heard something like that! It would be a long night for Sakura as it would be for the newlywed couple close to her room but for different reasons. -Elsewhere- Miles away from the village, there was an old fort, this had once been used in the age before ninja. When the lands were ruled by many feudal lords, in fact it was just one of many. All over the known world you could find these places that remained of the old days. Many had been taken by lords or dukes over the years, many others fell into disrepair, some like this one fell into the hands of companies or other rich men and women of power. This had once been Gato’s base of operations in the Land of Wave, that is until his death. Now it served a new master, Cain. Cain had been a high up employee of Gato, one of many in fact. He had been running the smuggling side of things when he had heard that Gato had been killed. As soon as word spread every member of the organization with ambition went for the empty seat of power. For months a bloody feud over it took the lives of many. Many more were hired to replace the small armies of thugs, villains and criminals. Many hadn’t the foresight to last long, using all their money and resources on man power, others using them to hire assassins. Cain had been different, he held back as he had slowly built up his own empire. With his smuggling he had a large amount of money coming in, it wasn’t easy to keep it running when others tried to move in on his turf. But with proper planning he had waited for the other main factions to bloody themselves enough so that they were weak. It was then in one fell swoop he came out of nowhere and smashed the others. He knew that he had to make an example, to show that he was the one to rule now. He killed the leaders and their highest minions and absorbed the rest into his own forces. Now he lead the remains of the old gang as well as all the new members. He had been slowly regaining the territories lost in the Gato’s fall. It was now that he had his sights on one of the last remaining areas, and he was starting with the very place Gato was killed. Although Cain had seen the profits of squeezing villages dry, it was short sighted. You can’t get blood from a stone and you can only bleed the people until there is nothing left. But he hadn’t been in charge then, now things were different. He used intimidation and fear for the people like before, but the tribute was lowered. The villages and businesses would pay and although the profit wasn’t as much, it would last much longer. Besides he had plans to expand his criminal empire. But lately he had heard disturbing rumours and sent a few men to see for himself if they were true. The office was large, just as Gato had left it but Cain had changed the décor a bit for his own tastes. There were less gaudy and more stylized pieces of art and items, the large desk was made out of pure oak and his chair had a long back almost making it look like a throne. Everything was made to be larger than life and to intimidate. Cain himself was a taller man than Gato was, although his hair held strands of grey his face looked like it had bee chiselled out of rock. At the moment he was looking at one of the men that had been infiltrating the village. “So, the village has hired ninja again then?” Cain asked hearing the report. “Yes sir, but not just any team. This is the team that was responsible for Gato’s death on the bridge sir.” Cain had another difference than Gato, that was he knew that ninja weren’t to be trifled with. With their abilities with that chakra stuff, they were far more dangerous than any of his normal men. He had a feeling that if he tried anything with that village they might seek out help again. Now it would seem that Cain would have to use ‘them’ again after all. It would be expensive but it couldn’t be helped. “Very good, get back there and keep an eye on things. I need a full report on the entire team if you can, and send in Grey, I need him to deliver a message for me.” Cain dismissed his man and was left alone to brood on this. Things were getting dangerous now, he had to play this out carefully or he could suffer the same fate as Gato had.
