As Sakura and Gaara entered the palace, they kept wondering what to do to make him feel more jealous of Naruto.

While they were talking to one another, Sasuke and Neji both had questions. They wondered why both came over. Then again they didn't expect Naruto to come back looking cute and handsome.

Once both brothers and friends were seated, Sasuke glanced at Naruto.

"He doesn't look too bad, but I can't be with him. I promised myself that I would choose the person I want to mate with." Sasuke thought to himself.

"Will Sasuke keep lying to himself?" Neji asked himself.

That's when Itachi decided to break the silence.

"Listen closely, Sasuke, Naruto, I want both of you to try and get to know each other. I know I might be asking for too much, but if you're both going to mate, I want both of you to be familiar with one another." Itachi finished.

Kyuubi nodded. "And if I hear any of you whining about it, you can blame each other."

They can blame each other since Naruto refused to show up while Sasuke refuses to do anything that has to do with Naruto.

For sure, these two won't be running away soon.

"That's why I came this time. And it's because we have limited time with one another now. We'll make up for those years I didn't come." Naruto spoke politely.

Kyuubi knew it had to do something with Gaara and Sakura.

After a bit of catching up, they were all dismissed, especially Sasuke and Naruto.

Neji then turned to see Sakura and Gaara.

"Aren't you going to chase after Sasuke?" Neji asked.

Sakura shook her head. "I was never really interested. However, I'm very much interested in what Sasuke and Naruto are going to do." Sakura answered.

"Same here, but I got a bad feeling."

Sakura and Gaara nodded.

"We feel it too, but we're not worried about Naruto, but Sasuke. I don't know how, but I have a strong feeling something bad is going to happen." Gaara spoke.

"You guys must be overthinking it." Iruka spoke.

The 3 had mixed feelings, but left it as is.

Iruka then turned to Kyuubi and Itachi. "Could this be a sign of him?"

They both nodded.

"His chakra is strong enough for others to feel some bit of danger." Kyuubi spoke.

"We have to be ready just in case." Itachi said.

Kakashi and Iruka nodded.

Always trust your gut :D
