"NANI!" A bellow from the famous Slug Princess and Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, and made everyone panic. Naruto was just walking to the Hokage Tower, and when he heard that, he ran at top speed and jumped into the only window.

"Baachan!" He yelled as he flew through the window, and crashed to the ground. Scrambling to his feet, he pulled out a kunai and looked around for any eneimes. When he found none, he relaxed and turned to give the woman a confused look.

"Don't call me that." She mumbled as she buried her face in her hands with a groan. Tsunade was an over fifty year old woman, yet didn't look a day over thirty. Long blond hair pulled into two low ponytails that went over her shoulders, a black four pointed diamond in the middle of her forehead, and honey golden eyes. She wore green capress, black sandal heels, gray sleeless shirt with a green jacket with the Fifth Hokage symbol on the back in black. Naruto was tall and lean-muscular male with wild blond hair that falls into his cerculen eyes, three whisker marks on each cheek, and sunkissed skin. He got rid of the ugly orange and black jumpsuit after the secret of the Fourth Hokage's son was out, and the villagers had to be fair. He now wears black shinobi shoewear, black ANBU style pants, an orange long sleeved shirt with the Uzumaki symbol on the sleeves, a black hooded vest, and his hitai-ate tied around his neck.

"Why did you scream?" He inquired as he watched her shuffle some papers on her desk. Her eyes flickered up to meet his before the darted back down, almost guilty like.

"There is a new village that started a few months ago and wanted an alliance." She muttered as she slammed the papers down and searched under her desk for some sake.

"That doesn't sound so bad."

"The alliance they want is too much!" She snaps, and then gave a triumph sound when she found the liquor. Uncorking the top, she smelled the sweet aroma and sighed in content. "They have a princess and want to marry her off to one of our clans here." She gulped from the bottle, the warm liquid soothing her throat with pleasurable tingles.

Naruto sighed and looked away, a dark shadow crossing over his handsome features. "With Sasuke back, he is the one right? That bastard get everything!" He growled as he clenched his fist. 'Just thinking of the bastard makes my blood boil.' He hummed in his throat as he thought of the other possiblities. "It can't be the Hyuuga clan because Hinata is marrying Kiba and Neji is marrying Ten Ten, and the Nara clan and the Yamakana clan are being brought together for Shikamaru and Ino. Choji's clan, as well as Shino's clan, doesn't care for that type of stuff anyway." He rambled, ticking off each clan with his fingers.

"Naruto, the village wants their princess to marry the best of our village. They want the Fourth Hokage's son to be her husband." Tsunade informed and watched as he took this in.

'So they want their princess to marry me?' He thought with a frown. 'Don't they know that they're giving her to a Jinchuuriki, a monster? Certainly they know of my situation if they know of my heritage.' He looked out the window, at the blue sky with no clouds around. "Do they know?" He asked in a quiet voice, his bangs now shadowing his eyes. Tsunade gave him a serious look as she put the sake down with a clank.
