Sorry for the long delay. I do not own Naruto.

Thoughts

"Speech"

"I was just about to say the same thing" Suko responds with a confident smirk on his face. I was just itching to smack him but another part of me wanted to see how Naruto would respond. So, I settled for glaring at him instead.

"Good they say that the best way to understand someone is through their fists" Naruto responds with a smirk of his own. I should have known that was how he was going to respond mentally rubbing my temples I feel a headache forming. I fix my glare on Naruto instead of smashing both of their heads together like I wanted.

"No" I say "this is not going to happen. We are here for the chunin exams and to establish a peace treaty. Not to pick fights with soon to be kages. Suko I understand how you feel but I simply cannot allow you to fight him." I watch as Suko pouts and as soon as I see that he looks ready to argue with me I glare at him. Feeling satisfied as he turns away from me and looks at the floor in submission I turn towards Naruto. Seeing that he has calmed down a bit I feel myself begin to relax.

"It's all right to be scared to fight Naruto. Anyone would be, especially if you came from that snake's village. I bet you can't even touch him" that no name bitch says. Who does she think she is, can't she see I'm trying to avoid conflict. Before I can even begin to respond Suko is talking.

"Oohh yeah. I bet Kura-sensei could beat him under two minutes." The itch to smack him comes back full force and continues to increase as his teammates make noises of agreements.

"Well that's an interesting idea. I would love to see if you can back up your kids' boasting. I'm sure there is a training ground open for you" Kakashi says with his familiar drawl and eye crinkle letting me know that he finds this whole situation amusing.

Suko rising to the bait Kakashi puts out there points at Naruto and yells "just you wait my sensei is going to kick your ass."

"As much as this…."

The bitch interrupts me saying "what afraid to lose." Screw it letting my temper get the best of me.

I instantly respond while crossing my arms over my chest with "No, I was just afraid that I would ruin his image when I ground him into the dust."

"Great, now that's decided. You kids can use training ground three. Have fun" Kakashi says with his damn eye crinkle. "Now get out of my office." With that dismissal we all file out, back down the stairs, out the main doors, and into the streets.

"Well lead the way" I say as I motion with my arm towards Naruto. Taking the lead Naruto grumbles something to Sai as they walk together leaving the bitch to trail after them. Sighing I look at my team and motion them to start walking. This was going to be easy. Naruto sucks at genjutsu. All I have to do is lair them when he looks me in the eyes. The first one I'm going to use is pitchibomu. My favorite, I still love how the pitch is different for everyone. Hmm I should do two layers of that one though, so even if he breaks out of the first one the second one will still be in place. Making it look like nothing happened. Also with this one it will hopefully throw off his perception even if Kurama helps him. The third layer will be kokoni arazu no jutsu to make it look like I am still standing there as I shunshni to knock out Naruto. Also on the bright side if I just use genjutsu it won't give that much information about me. Making up my mind I take in Konoha and see how much it has changed. Out of the corner of my eyes I see my kids doing the same.

"What do you guys say after this we go get something to eat instead of finding an inn" I ask the kids as we weave through the busy streets keeping up with the group in front of us. Seeing their faces light up at the mention of food I chuckle as they yell their agreement, getting a few weird looks in the process. They don't notice though as they start to babble amongst each other what they wanted to eat. I enjoyed the walk as the people around got thinner and thinner as we neared the training grounds. As we enter training ground three I look around. It looks exactly as I remembered it. Both of our teams stay at the edge as Naruto and I go stand at the center of the training ground. "Any rules" I ask Naruto.

"None, just make sure you don't use anything to flashy that will affect the village" he responds with a serious expression. "Sai, will you do the honors" Seeing Sai nod we both back up and get into our stances.

"Naruto ready" getting a nod Sai turns to me "snake ready" ignoring the jab I nod, "then begin" he shouts.

Okay I know that this was so delayed and I'm sorry. I got so busy with my first year of college. Please review, I would like to know how I am doing. I think I found my way with this story. I am open to suggestions and will try to post another chapter that is longer.
