So last chapter was a little short and I left off on some really tense places for all the characters but this chapter will hopefully answer all of the questions you had about the last one.
Special thanks to AngelTalion, your *facepalm* in your last review made me laugh SO much :D
***
Naruto drummed his fingers on the information desk of the nurses’ station impatiently, waiting for the only nurse occupying it to finish conversing with an older shinobi walking around dragging an IV drip with him.
The blondes inpatients grew as he overheard the older shinobi make a clearly unwanted pass at the young nurse who simply laughed nervously and told him that she had to get back to work and would see him on her rounds that evening even though Naruto knew she would most definitely swap her rounds with another nurse when she got the chance.
As the older man left the nurse returned to the station, “I’m sorry about making you wait like that but some patients just don’t know how to take a hint,” she offered him a smile, “so what can I help you with.”
“I’m looking for Kiba Inuzuka’s room,” Naruto said through clench teeth and resisted the urge to tap his foot as the nurse riffled through a stack of patient files, looking for information about the unfamiliar patient.
“Oh here we are,” she exclaimed triumphantly while pulling out a file from the middle of the stack and leafing through the pages, “hmm quite a medical history we have here, a lot of dog bites when he was younger,” she murmured almost to herself, “says here that he’s in room 203 this time, that’s upstairs and just down the hall to your left.”
Naruto gave a quick thankyou to the nurse before racing off in the direction of the stairwell and taking them two at a time in his haste to get to the Inuzuka’s hospital room.
Before he entered the hall from the stairwell the blonde stuck his head out of the door quickly to see if Granny Tsunade was anywhere in sight but instead of her he saw a lazy brunette chunin leaning against the wall with his eyes closed.
What is Shikamaru doing here? Naruto’s curiosity won out over his not wanting to see Tsunade and be asked a million questions regarding if he was alright or not and he soon found himself wandering down the hall toward his friend.
“Hey Shika what are you doing outside Kiba’s hospital room?” questioned Naruto when he was a short distance away.
At hearing his name called the Nara cracked open an eyelid and regarded the energetic blonde with his usual bored expression. People often wondered how the two of them could be such good friends when they had such extremely opposite personalities but in truth Shikamaru found Naruto and his incredibly erratic mind quite fascinating as it was the only thing he had ever encountered that he couldn’t figure out. It made all his genius absolutely useless and he found the change refreshing as it gave him a rare chance to not be bored and actually enjoy things.
“I could ask you the same thing,” replied the Nara in a rather clipped tone as he pushed himself off the wall and placed his hands in his pockets, “but it’s pretty obvious so I’m not going to waste my breath.”
“Are you alright Shika, you sound cranky which is REALLY not like you unless something is going down,” Naruto placed his hands behind his head, feigning disinterest as best as he could with his heart racing in anticipation for Shikamaru’s explanation but he felt his blood run suddenly cold as he uttered three words.
“Sasuke sent me,” Shikamaru watched as his friends tanned face paled and his eyes widened to an impossible size, panic settling into their depths but he also saw anger and just a hint of betrayal and the nana thanked his lucky stars that the blondes eyes were so expressive otherwise he would never be able to figure out anything about him, something that would be truly frustrating, “but he’s not the one that informed me about yours and Kiba’s…situation.”
“T-then who told you, no one else knows,” the blonde stuttered in disbelief and lowered his hands from behind his head before taking a step toward his lazy friend, pleading with the Nara to tell him.
Shikamaru sighed and turned his head to the side to avoid looking at Naruto, he just couldn’t stand that look in his eyes anymore and he knew it was only going get worse with what he was about to say, “it was Kiba who told me. He may not remember much of it, he was pretty drunk at the time but Naruto you need to know, the things he was saying about you made me feel sink and I nearly strangled him to death my shadows and I would have if my father hadn’t have walked in and stopped me when he heard the commotion Kiba made fighting back.”
Naruto stood still a moment before stepping into Shikamaru and shoving him in the chest, “you attacked him! How dare you Shikamaru!!”
As the furious blonde pulled back his fist in an attempt to clobber the Nara he stepped forward quickly and grabbed Naruto by the front of his shirt, pulling him into his chest which efficiently limited the blonde’s movement, “How dare I? You are lucky that Sasuke didn’t cut Kiba’s dick off and feed it to him when he found out!!” The Nara only realised how loudly he was yelling when a nurse came out of one of the rooms and told him to stop but at that point he didn’t care.
Shikamaru shook the stunned blonde roughly and his grip on his jumper tightened, “and then Sasuke tells you how he feels and means it, says he want to be yours and only yours and you completely reject him then come back to THIS,” Shika spat the last word into Naruto’s face before finally letting him go and pushing past him, heading for the stairwell.
Naruto reached out and grabbed Shikamaru’s wrist, his tanned skin meeting the pale cream of his friends and for a moment Shikamaru turned back to him, watching the blonde open and close his mouth for a moment as he searched for something to say to make things right between them but after a few moments he gave up, forcefully pulling his wrist from Naruto’s grip and walking away with his hands shoved deeply into his pockets, mirroring the depth of his brooding and enraged thoughts.
Naruto stood staring at Shikamaru’s retreating for and he flinched when the door that lead to the stairwell slammed shut, the noise reverberating through the now deathly silent hospital floor. The blonde snapped out of his dazed state and looked around to see that almost every patient and member of the hospital staff had come out of their rooms or left their duties in order to see what the commotion had been about. The only door that remained closed was the door of room 203, Kiba’s hospital room.
Choosing to ignore the staring people Naruto retreated into Kiba’s room, deciding that, even though he had most likely heard what had happened and would have questions that it was better than dealing with the looks he was receiving.
Naruto quietly opened the sliding door to the room, worrying that the Inuzuka might be sleeping. He had heard that Kiba’s wounds weren’t to sever but he still wanted him to have time to rest. The more he rested the sooner Kiba would get better and he could welcome him home properly.
However as he tiptoed into the room he didn’t find the Inuzuka resting, he found him siting up in bed with his eyes firmly fixed on the wall in front of him, a deep scowl plastered onto his normally cheerful face.
“K-Kiba?” the look on the Inuzuka’s face was something he had never seen before. He’d seen Kiba angry and upset and a myriad of emotions in between the two but he had never seen him looked so disheartened and…ashamed? The blonde felt a scowl beginning to grace his own face as he realised that yes that look was shame, but what he couldn’t figure out was why.
At the sound of the blondes voice calling his name Kiba turned his head to the window, not wanting to meet those bright blue eyes, the same ones he had been thinking about when he had set off that damn trap, the trap that had ruined him.
Worried by Kiba’s silence and the fact that he was turning away from him Naruto made his way to the bed in which the Inuzuka sat cautiously deciding to part with his happy energetic ways for the moment and live on the side of caution like the rest of us.
“Don’t,” said Kiba unexpectedly and a little loudly, “don’t come any closer Naruto, just leave,” The Inuzuka’s voice held none of its previous life, it was like the dog ninja wasn’t even there anymore.
“Hey what’s wrong Kiba, I came to stop you from being to bored, to see if there was anything I could do to help pass the time,” the blonde allowed his voice to drop an octave as he continued his slow stroll to the bed, becoming a sultry and suggestive purr, hoping his willing submissiveness would snap his Inuzuka out of the little depressed rut he seemed to be in.
It started out as a slow chuckle and at first Naruto didn’t know what was going on but soon Kiba was laughing out right, his hysterical voice bouncing off the walls around them, his head in his hand shaking so badly that it was causing the bed to shift and creak.
“Kiba what’s wrong with you, talk to me please,” Naruto gave up on the cautious approach and went straight to the bed side only to have Kiba lash out as him, his sharpened nails catching the front of the blondes jacket, tearing raged claw marks both through it, the mesh shirt he wore as well as the tanned skin underneath.
Naruto and stared at the Inuzuka in shocked horror and clutched his chest as he felt pain blossom and blood began to soak into the ruined cloth but he wasn’t shocked by that. What shocked him was seeing the side of Kiba’s face that had been turned away from him when he first entered the room.
The red triangle tattoo on Kiba’s left cheek, the proud bold red marking of this equally proud and bold clan was now a ruined by a ugly scar that was still red raw and healing where a shuriken had hit him, dissecting the triangle completely in half and traveling all the way up to the hairline of his temple.
Naruto felt his eyes widen and the sharp hot prick of tears began to annoy him but he wouldn’t cry tears of pity for the Inuzuka, knowing that it would only make this situation worse. Kiba’s markings meant everything to him, he loved them just as much as he loved Akamaru and though the blonde had never known what it felt like to be graced with the markings or crests of one’s family clan he knew that it was something each family who had one cherished. Even Sasuke who was one of only two Uchiha left alive still wore his clan symbol on the back of his shirts every single day or on a pendant that Naruto occasionally saw around his neck.
“Looks like we really do belong together now hey Naruto,” the Inuzuka sneered and spat on the ground at the blondes feet, making him take an involuntary step back, “I guess we’re totally free to be together now, Shino won’t want me anymore now that I’m like this, despite what he says, I’m surprised you even want me, since Uchiha seems so interested in you and tyour sweet arse.”
A thoughtful look replaced Kiba’s expression for a moment before he continued, “Maybe you’re what he deserves thought. After all it was you that I was thinking of when this accident happened; it was thought of that sweet arse of yours that was distracting me. Maybe the same will happen to him, penance for touching what doesn’t belong to him,” that was when the laughter started again, “now that would be ironic!!”
“Kiba-“
“Just get out Naruto,” Kiba said through a chuckle, cutting him off and when the blonde didn’t move he screamed at him, “I SAID GET OUT!!!”
Shocked by Kiba’s somewhat insane state the blonde began to back out of the room slowly, slipping a little in the blood that had collected at his feet but thankfully stopped falling as Kyuubi had recognised it as a wound that needed to be healed regardless of his promises to no longer aid the blonde when he was wounded and it involved Kiba.
It seemed like an age before the blonde was out in the hall again and before he knew it he was moving down the hall back toward the stairwell that would lead him out of the nightmare this place had just become but before he could reach for the handle of the door he felt a hand on his shoulder that turned him to stare into bright green eyes framed by pink that widened in shock when they saw the state of Naruto’s front.
“I don’t know what just happened and I’m not going to ask you for an explanation until you’re ready to give me one,” said Sakura quietly as she put her arms around Naruto and led him down a different hall, “Just come with me so I can fix you up and then get you home.”
Sakura was worried when the blonde put up no fight, just went along with her as if he didn’t care what happened to him or where he was going and she held him closer to her, tucking him into her side as best as she could as murderous thoughts flittered through her mind involving a very deadly chakra infused punch and Kiba’s face.
She sighed as she opened a door to a room she knew to be vacant and ushered Naruto in gently. If that’s what she was thinking about doing she could only imagine how Tsunade would react when she found out.

Kakashi stared at the papers that Tsunade had placed on the desk in front of him with confusion. It was a formal request to join the ranks of ANBU as soon as possible including an outline of skills and references from various jonin and to Kakashi’s shock the head of the Hyuga family. The request was from Sasuke.
“It’s no doubt the boy is more than qualified in the field and I’ve taken his file to the village elders who all agree that he would serve that ranks very well. All I need now is your consent and assurance that your team can function as well as you do now with Sai as his permanent replacement instead of just a substitute,” the Hokage placed her elbows on her desk and laced her fingers, resting her chin on her hands as she waited for Kakashi’s answer
She understood that he was shocked; she herself had felt the same when Sasuke had given her the request earlier that day. It was out of the blue but she knew the Uchiha often felt unchallenged by normal ninja life however she had always thought that Sasuke would remain in team Kakashi for as long as he was able for the sake of his friendship with her favourite blonde ninja because just like Kakashi she had come to see that Uchiha’s feelings grow and change when it came to Naruto and she suspected that that was also the reason Kakashi was also so confused.
“He’ll still have to pass the written exams Kakashi and who knows, he may not do so well,” Tsunade dared to let hope lace her voice, she wanted Sasuke to stay with Naruto believing they had a real chance to make each other happy and chase away some of the sorrows of their pasts, “all we have to do is pray for a miracle, either that or you could decide not to give your consent.”
Kakashi’s eye curved in a sad smile, he was never one to thy and getting in the way of what someone else wanted and he believed that if Sasuke was doing this then it was something he wanted as the Uchiha wasn’t one to make rash decisions, “ looks like we’ll both be spending our free time praying then.”

Really enjoyed writing the part with Shika in it, the thought of Captain Lazy totally losing it now and then amuses me greatly. Also how was my idea for harming Kiba? I had to find a way to hurt him that wouldn’t get anyone in trouble and this was all I could really come up with. Also please excuse the big plot hole concerning Sai
