This is it guys. Hype.

all aboard the hype train, choo choo

AWWWWWWWWWWWW SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT

So it begins

It's very late when you arrive back in the village. You doubt many people are still awake at this hour, so you decide to leave the reunions for tomorrow. You head back to the restaurant, and find it just the same as when you left it. This is the longest you'd ever been away, and it feels good to finally be back home.

It's closed for business by now, and the door is locked. But it shouldn't be so late that your uncle has been asleep for long if at all, so you go ahead and knock on the door. After waiting a few moments, the door cracks open a bit, and you see your uncle looking out at you.

"Kon?" he gasps, throwing the door open. "You're back! Oh, it's so good to see you again. Looking like even more of a man, at that. How was your vacation, huh? Have yourself a good time?"

Your uncle ushers you inside from the cold, and sits you down as he makes a quick snack.

"I had a great time, Uncle." you assure. "Sorry for showing up so late, though."

"Nonsense, it's no trouble! This is your home, and you can come and go at any time you please!" your uncle assures, laying out a dish for you. "Now, you must be hungry! Eat up!"

You chat with your uncle as you eat, telling him all about your time training, as he tells you about how great both life and his business have been doing.

"That may have been a vacation, but it sounds like you were working hard to improve relations between the villages." your uncle notes, as you finish eating. "You never do seem to rest, do you, Kon? Well, I'm sure you'll want to spend tomorrow catching up with your friends. You may just be surprised by something."

You head up to sleep in your own bed for the first night in a long while, and sleep as soundly as you ever have. Morning comes before you know it, and after breakfast with your uncle, you're ready to head out.

>A.Go see Sasuke

>B.Go see Kiba

>C.Go see Kakashi

>D.Go see someone else (Specify)

>E.Other

>>E.Other
Since no one knows we are here, slide on the mask, then using our flying technique go visit the Hokage via balcony. check in.

Try not to be seen

Art for aged up Kon

More of the same fellow
I hope Hat user is happy

>E. Go report in to the Hokage, first thing.

That looks good dude. Nice freaking job

Agreed good job user, I like them.

>>E.Other
Like always, first report to Itachi.

I kinda wanted to call it Wind Release: Cloud Strider: The up current also forms small coulds, creating the appearance of floating among clouds or even riding them. (just like RL monkey King)

ill stop now

Hey itachi guess what? I we t ahead and turned a bunch of ninja from other villages into monsters. Pretty cool right?

im sure we did a hell of alot more good than bad

It would be cool to include the mask somewhere, like dangling off the belt. Or to be carrying the monkey scroll on our back. I usually include one or the other in my minds eye.

For quite a while I considered attaching the mask to our hat, on the opposite side to the leaf headband. So when we wear it the leaf plate is on the back of our head...thats my reasoning why we don't see it in the last pic

We really are Chinese Electric Batman

You decide to report to the Hokage first and foremost. Don't want to leave him out of the loop again. And you're sure he'll be interested in your trip's potential effect on inter-village cooperation.

You make your way stealthily over rooftops to the Hokage's office, preferring not to get sidetracked this early. You arrive, but find that the Hokage doesn't seem to be there. Izumo and Kotetsu let you through, but inside the office are Shikamaru and his father, wearing what seems to be a new flak vest.

"Lord Itachi and Neji went to a meeting of the five Kage." Shikamaru explains, as he reluctantly files papers with his father. "They should be back by tomorrow, though. Until then, why don't you go check in with the others? I'm sure they'll be glad to see you again. Let me just say that some of them have changed a bit since you last saw them."

"Unlike Shikamaru, here." Shikaku adds. "He's just the same as ever. At least he's been helping as a representative in the fledgling United Shinobi Council. I imagine you might want to get in on that too, Kon. It's in large part thanks to you that efforts are going so well, after all."

You chat a bit longer, then head out once more.

>A.Go home and wait for tomorrow, seeing the Hokage should come first

>B.Go see somebody (Specify)

>C.Wander around

>D.Other

>B. Go see somebody
See if you can sneak into the Uchiha compound and surprise Sasuke even with his bullshittigan.

>>B.Go see somebody (Sauce

>B.Go see somebody (Specify
Sauce

>B.Go see somebody (Sasuke)
This float in through the window on a gentle breeze, all smooth like.

>B.Go see somebody Sasuman and his all seeing eye
He's gotta be awake to see us coming.... Sneak in and surprise him by been at the table when he comes out

You know I always wondered if Kon has a large enough or unique enough chakra signature to be easily detectable? Like can sensors see him coming a mile away because of our unique chakra and the sheer amount of it we have?

You decide to hit up Sasuke first. Once again going for a stealthy approach, you float over to the Uchiha compound with your jutsu, hoping to catch Sasuke off guard.

Unfortunately, Sasuke isn't even there when you arrive. Mikoto greets you, remarking on how long it's been, and how much you've grown.

After the formalities, she tells you that Sasuke was invited to be a guest teacher at the academy today. You thank her, then head out to meet her son. You sneak over there as well, but you figure that you'll probably drop the stealth after this. It's no use trying to sneak up on him anyway, as you find him demonstrating Taijutsu in front of a bunch of kids, with many more watching from the building windows.

As Sasuke finishes his demonstration, you notice that he's grown his bangs to completely cover his Rinnegan now.

"Sasuke!" you hear squeals from several young girls up above. Some are nearly falling over the side with how far they're trying to learn out to wave.

Sasuke seems as uncomfortable with the attention as ever.

>A.Leave him to it, go somewhere else (Specify)

>B.Go over and try to lighten his mood

>C.Join him, bask in some of that glory yourself

>D.Other

>B.Go over and try to lighten his mood

Damn it, dropped my trip

>B.Go over and try to lighten his mood
>D.Other

Mock attack him. A friendly punch.

>>B.Go over and try to lighten his mood
Touch down next to him, creating a bit of an entrance and drawing a little of it off of him. Might brighten his day too. Make sure we have our monkey tail so we can use it in the coming Taijutsu demonstration

This, even if we aint as popular it will give him a few moments reprieve.

>Our New Stat Block
holy shit we are a wreaking ball

I wonder if Kon is like Shaka and just keeps his eyes closed so he can focus his chakra and as soon as he opens it, all hell breaks loose.

I like this.

Thats kinda the idea, so far we've opened them twice...both in shock/romance things....but lets not talk about that yet. None of our team has yet to see our eyes and who knows what evil inhuman thoughts lurk behind them

>I didnt save artfags "meet the Leaf Ninja"

Oh damn, I caught the quest for the first time after reading up on it!

>B. Go over and try to lighten the Sauceboss's mood.

How careless, was it in the washing or did you leave it in the car?

youtube.com/watch?v=W3wq06dDPhI&index=3&list=PLclijkSPTdUXkvarr9kDKc-hbIjFL4Srs

Maybe drawing some attention to yourself will make things easier on Sasuke. You jump high up in the air, then drop down right next to him, intent on making a bit of an entrance.

As you land, you can hear some gasps, then even a little whispering and giggling. It seems you aren't completely without recognition.

"Kon, it's been a while." Sasuke smirks, as he turns to you. "Nice hat."

At your name's mention, you can hear some of the incessant cheering targeted at you. The group of kids that Sasuke was teaching get excited too, and demand that you join in the demonstration, to which you comply.

You and Sasuke go back and forth, demonstrating all sorts of Taijutsu moves. Plenty of them are way too hard for these kids to even attempt, but the two of you can't help but put on a bit of a show.

After school, the kids all wave at the two of you as they disperse, the girls swooning all the while.

"They've left Kiba alone for the most part, since he's married, so I've been taking the full assault myself." Sasuke sighs. "I've gotten so tired of it that I've been having Konohamaru distract them while I say that I have to go do something else. And hey, just to let you know, he's the one who offered, or I'd never do that."

Not more than a minute after his name comes up, you see Konohamaru approach. He looks quite a bit more mature since you last saw him.

"Bro, you're back!" he shouts. "I heard all about your training from the monkeys, it sounds so cool! You sure missed out on the girls, though. Do you have any idea how popular you guys are? Just hanging around with Sasuke has been great!"

The three of you start walking around as you chat.

>A.Talk to Sasuke (Write-in)

>B.Talk to Konohamaru (Write-in)

>C.Head somewhere in particular (Specify)

>D.Other

>B. Talk to Konohamaru.

"Oh, believe me, I've got an idea of how popular we are. And I'm glad I missed it." Smirk and nudge Sasuke teasingly.

>>D.Other
Just chat in general with Sasuke and Konohamaru as we wander the village let him bring us up to date and give him a friendly chat.

>A. Ask how Kiba's been doing. Is he in the village still?
>D. Fist-bump Konohamaru

These dubs know what to do

>A. Speaking of girls...anyone you've got your eye on, Mr. Head of the Uchiha Clan, Hero of the Fourth Shinobi War, Eternal Bachelor?

Honestly, I feel like if nothing else I understand where Sasuke and Jiraiya are coming from. Some guys get so ridiculously far into the realm of walking WMD that "normal human" stuff starts to just get even more awkward and uncomfortable because of it.

Like Sasuke's got to know he can flatten the village by himself, but he still feels uncomfortable around girls. That's got to magnify the feeling.

IM relativly confident the village could take down Sasuke...but it would be at a heavy as fuck price. Similar situation to Kon. but Kon to toe, 1v1 Kon and Sasuke are one another's only competitors...unless Lee goes 8 gates and round house kicks us all into submission

I'm sure Kon can relate to that as well. Dude could punch a mountain into space but drops more spaghetti around girls than all of Italy.

>>D.Other
Ask both what all has been going on since we left. We still don't know what the changes Shikamaru told us about are.

You fist bump Konohamaru, and ask all about how things have been in the village. It seems things have been mostly calm, and Sasuke and Konohamaru have each been doing their own standard missions. Nothing out of the ordinary. It truly seems to be the beginning of an era of peace.

"How's Kiba been doing?" you ask. "Is he enjoying his married life?"

"He wasted absolutely no time. He and Tamaki have already had a son since you've been gone." Sasuke tells you. he pauses for a bit, looking like he's going to say something, but visibly shudders. He puts his hand to his face before speaking again. "Sorry. Master Jiraiya must have corrupted me more than I thought. I was about to make a tasteless joke about animals."

"Man Sasuke, it's not that bad. You really need to lighten up." Konohamaru insists. "By the way, Haku and Ino got married, and had a kid too. Looks like all your friends are nearly grown up now, huh? You better get over yourself Sasuke, or you'll be left behind!"

As you walk, you see all sorts of banners and stalls set up. It seems it's the time of the year for the Rinne Festival. You usually don't pay it much mind, but it occurs to you due to the name that the celebration may be able to be traced back to the Sage of Six Paths. Funny, that.

As the afternoon goes on, several girls approach Sasuke to give him gifts, much to his chagrin. By the looks on a few girl's faces when they see you, you imagine you'd be getting some gifts if they knew you were here earlier. Eventually, the gifts pile so high, that you and Konohamaru are helping to carry them.

Sasuke only serves to look more and more uncomfortable, until eventually, the stream of girls stops and you can rest.

>A.Ask what he intends to do about this

>B.Tell him to enjoy the popularity

>C.Say something else (Write-in)

>D.Say goodbye for now, go see someone else (Specify)

>E.Other

>A.Ask what he intends to do about this

>B.Tell him to enjoy the popularity

>C.Say something else
Ask how Tenten has been...she doing all right? (DO NOT GO VISIT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD)

>A.Ask what he intends to do about this
Im willing to bet you have your heart set somewhere, you may wanna up your pace in that regard otherwise you will be buried under a mound of gifts and regrets before you know it...Sasuke trust me on this...when it comes to love, don't draw things out. (litrally our only experience is a little relevant right now so share it)

>A.Ask what he intends to do about this
>E.Other
"Ignoring it will just make it worse."

This

Don't let what we went though be in vain, let it be a warning to Sasuke not to fuck things up like we did.

I wanna fix them I just don't know how

youtube.com/watch?v=N9kVWC0rT0s&list=PLclijkSPTdUXkvarr9kDKc-hbIjFL4Srs&index=6

Sasuke can't keep this up forever. He needs to do something, as opposed to just letting himself be uncomfortable forever.

"So what do you intend to do about this?" you ask. "You really shouldn't drag this out, and ignoring it will just make it worse. I'm willing to bet you've got your heart set somewhere, so get to it before all you have is regrets."

Sasuke doesn't respond, but Konohamaru speaks up.

"Sasuke's always complaining about the girls approaching him having no connection to him, and that's what makes it weird." he explains. "I can only imagine that if he's saying that, he has someone in mind that does have a connection to him, am I right?"

You've heard Sasuke say that before. You glance at him to see him looking down.

"Yeah, I never got over that, you don't need to remind me, Kon." Sasuke scoffs. "I tried moving on, but I think there might be something else to this. What I really need to do is confront it directly, instead of avoiding it like I have been. After this... I'll know one way or the other."

You feel like Sasuke is being vague on purpose because he's still nervous, but he assures you he has things handled. You take care of Sasuke's gifts, and Konohamaru heads home, since the sun is setting. Sasuke begins to take off as well.

>A.Follow Sasuke

>B.Go meet with someone else (Specify)

>C.Other

>A.Follow Sasuke

>>B.Go meet with someone else
For totally unrelated purposes lets go meet up with Sakura

>>B.Go meet with someone else (Specify)
Go for a quiet midnight stroll across the Leaf's rooftops, maybe have a peek to see Tenten closing shop before resuming, maybe watch to see where Sasuke is going briefly. From the roofs we will likly see all the pairings out and about too.. wonder if word is spreading we have returned?

That sounds pretty good to me

because it actually is related

Not exactly follow but in the general area. I like the Tenten bit just looking to see how she is doing before carrying on enjoying the sights form our roof top vantage point.

>B.Go meet with someone else (Specify)
See how Neji is doing. Because I'm putting my money on it being Hinata, so we could run into Sasuke that way.

>B.Go meet with someone else
10/10

>>B.Go meet with someone else (Specify)

Go check up on Kiba.

Neji is out with Itachi at the summit.

Oh hell no nigga

Ill support this just so we don't do anything to crazy. Atleast we will see people from a distance and recognize them or see the changes.

Im down with this

>>C.Other
Go bang one out with tsunade

>B.Go meet with someone else (Specify)
Not really meet up per say, just wander around on the down low, Go sage mode to sense people out so if we wanna find someone we can.

Good practice too for gathering chakra

You decide to take another stroll across the village rooftops, partially to keep an eye on Sasuke, and partially to see who else is around.

As you tail Sasuke as stealthily as possible, you catch a glimpse of Tenten's weapon shop. The lights are all off. There doesn't seem to be anyone home.

You see Kiba with Ino and Haku, and the two fathers are holding their infant children. Kiba looks a whole lot manlier, having gotten more muscular, and grown a goatee. Haku has changed as well. You imagine that he's a lot less likely to be mistaken for a girl now. Ino is wearing a new outfit too, and has grown her hair out, but is hanging off of Haku the same as ever. You get just close enough to make out part of their conversation.

"Yeah, Nekobaa isn't feeling well, so Tamaki left Kegawa to me." Kiba says. "But hey, we finally get to meet your son! I'm sure they'll be great friends, right?"

"Reizoko is a girl, Kiba." Haku says, as calm as ever. "You're not doing this on purpose, are you?"

"What? No!" Kiba replies. "I was just playing it save, you know? I'm not making the opposite mistake again. So why no Ino in the name?"

"Well, she wasn't born alongside members of the Nara and Akimichi clans." Ino says. "So she won't be Clan Head. We've already been chastised for being too hasty. But that just means we'll have another, right Haku?"

Haku merely returns his usual smile, and you leave to keep up with Sasuke.

Sasuke just seems to be wandering around, looking around all the shops and stalls. Eventually, he finds who he's looking for. Hinata is at a stall, looking around at trinkets. She's alone, and seems nervous. She even jumps a bit when Sasuke greets her.

You're too far away to make out what they're saying in the crowd, but it goes on for a while. Both of the participants seem rather nervous, so it goes pretty slow. Eventually, Hinata takes off. Sasuke is about to follow, but then stops. He looks right in your direction.

>A.Take off, leave him alone

>B.Go tell him to follow her

>C.Go ask him what happened

>D.Go tell him something else (Write-in)

>E.Other

>Use a jutsu we learnt
Use False sound to speak to him. "Well go after you dork, poor girl might even have something for ya"

>A.Take off, leave him alone
They all need to learn to walk on their own eventually.

INSTEAD OF JUST VOTING

Hinata seems nervous, obviously still has the hots for Naruto. This is, in fact, not unlike dealing with Tenten. Consider this when deciding what to do.

>B.Go tell him to follow her
ey b0ss

Also, errands

Back in a bit

I like the idea of using a genjutsu to send him the message. Go after her you fool, want me to stay back here, I know i'm a terrible stalker.

> Grin and wave at him. Maybe give him a thumbs up.

Give him a thumbs up and motion for him to go after her. Then we can enjoy a less stalker-ish walk on the roofs.

>A.Take off, leave him alone

So... we remembered to tell Kuro about our trip right? So she doesn't think we just bailed?

>Sasuke going after Hinata
>Sakura and Sasuke dont fuck
>No Sadara in our timeline
Why even live bros.
Someone give me a reason not to end it all

Potentially cuter kids?

Seconding this

this

picture related

But Ninshu totally will fix things!

It may not have helped short-term but I believe it will help long term for all cases involved.

So Sauce got stuck with Kon and Kiba as teammates? How did he survive that?

Actually I can see that...I mean if Tenten and Kuro have bumped into one another what so ever i'm sure we will have been discussed. For all we know they may have come up with a solution or a plan.

Im gonna come clean, at first totally against the whole "Harem" thing but to me this seems more like a genuine case of loving two people not being edgy I think three could have a true happy ending

BUT SADARA THO

Kon is a bad ass
Kida does well when he's with other bros
Sasuke not being too much of an edgy faggot helped

I meant that Kon is a pretty ruthless clown that loves explosives and Kiba is naruto lite. How did Sauce stay sane?

Because Kon always had a sense of perspective and Itachi didn't murder his entire clan. Between those two things it's no wonder Sasuke would be more mellow.

You should probably try to stop stalking so hardcore.

You grin and shoot Sasuke a thumbs up, then motion in the direction Hinata left. Sasuke stands still, looking at you for a bit, but eventually heads off after her.

Since you've decided you're done here, you continue strolling along the rooftops. Despite your attempts to stop eavesdropping, you accidentally stumble within earshot of another conversation. It's Lee, in the middle of another confession to Sakura.

"I have been thinking really hard, Sakura!" you hear Lee yell. "My confessions until now... I know as well as anyone how superficial they have been! I merely said how pretty you were, or how I admired your talent. But my feelings are not that shallow! Because now I understand! The Sakura that I fell in love with is not just strong, or beautiful. It is the Sakura that is passionate! You always restrain yourself, Sakura. You hold your true thoughts and feelings back, to try and come off as someone you are not. The Sakura that I truly love is the one that I have seen only glimpses of. You occasionally let go of your restraints, and let your true self shine through. I do not want you to try and be someone else, Sakura. I want to see you be your true self all the time! I want to set your true self free, Sakura. Please, go out with me!"

As earnest as Lee always is, he's even more serious than ever. You leave so as not to intrude any further.

As you keep strolling around, you think you see some figures moving in the distance, across the night rooftops. In fact, it looks like it may be a fight. Then again, maybe not. You doubt that would be happening so close to the festival stalls.

It's been a year or so, lets fucking dance.

youtube.com/watch?v=29rvBC4f-J0&list=PLclijkSPTdUXkvarr9kDKc-hbIjFL4Srs&index=9

You rush over, but keep your distance at first. It'd be better to get an idea of the situation.

You watch as some kind of robed men you've never seen before all dash across rooftops. You think you see one of them out ahead of the others carrying someone. You meditate briefly to get your Sage senses, and discover that it is Hinata. You also learn that these guys aren't human at all. You can't sense them. They must be some kind of puppets. You do however, sense Sasuke closing in.

He's chasing after the lead puppet, knocking any other puppets out of his way. The puppets start launching some sort of chakra blasts, forcing Sasuke to take evasive maneuvers. The blasts are fairly powerful, it seems, nothing to scoff at. On one roof, several puppets all corner Sasuke at once, forcing him to summon Susanoo to defend from the barrage of chakra blasts.

>A.Join Sasuke and take out those puppets, then give chase

>B.Take these guys so Sasuke can keep going

>C.Go after Hinata before they get away

>D.Other
