Minato yawned as he drove his van down Silver Broadway, the man's tired blue eyes scanning the morning city crowd for his son and the girl he was with. The man finally stopped, pulling close to a street corner, he grabbed his scroll and checked his son's location since they were linked on their Family PN. He saw that Naruto was about to walk around the corner and smiled when he saw his son walking with his friend, pointing things out.

"Hey, Naruto, what's that rickety old van doing there?" Amira asked him, she pointed out the van with a crest on the side door.

Naruto's face lit up, he smiled brightly, grabbing her hand and rushing her toward it. Minato laughed, rolling down the window, and then looking at them.

"Hey-hey, what's up buddy, you little lost?" Minato jokingly inquired, giving a sly look to Naruto.

The teen just rolled his eyes, smiling, 'What made you pull out The Rust Bucket?'

"Pfft, Rust Bucket?! I'll have you know this a genuine luxury vehicle, get in. You got friends back home waiting for you, and food." Minato flipped a switch on the inside, he looked up, "Oops that was the sunroof."

He flipped the switch, closing the sunroof, and unlocking the doors with the correct switch. Naruto slid the door open, motioning for Amira to enter, she climbed in the back quickly and put her stuff next to her seat. The alabaster-haired girl buckled up, yawning, looking at the man. His features were strikingly like Naruto's, minus the round face. Minato even had the whisker marks on his face, she saw that the man's eyes was the exact same as his son's.

Minato flipped the radio on, "Neat, that new song is playing."

He hummed, "Gonna take my horse to the old town road…"

"Um, sir, if I may make a suggestion…" Amira watched as he looked at her in the mirror, "Station Six.'

"Station Six…Station Six…ah here we are! Let's see what you like then, Amira." Minato flipped the channel on, pop music began to play.

"And, it's a hard pill for you to swallow!"

Naruto winced a little bit, pop wasn't really his, or his dad's, scene. The music thumped the old speakers in the van, they began to drive toward the tunnels near the edge of the city. The Under Road of Vale was an engineering marvel, a tunnel built ten miles long underground, under the ocean. The Roads led to Patch Town, The Capital Town on Patch Island.

Entering the underground tunnels, turning on his headlights, Minato feigned signal loss as he turned the radio off. Amira sighed, leaning back in her seat, Naruto was riding shotgun and was using his stylus to write in text-to-speech to hold a conversation with his father as he drove. The robotic voice of the scroll droned on, and Naruto smiled as he asked the next question.

"Mom was glowing, is she expecting again?" Naruto asked, the robotic voice of his scroll filling the silent van.

Minato giggled a little bit, "Very well could be, we're just leaving it up in the air at this point."

"Hope Kiki doesn't freak out, I got her a birthday present in my bag, ya know." Naruto made the device speak, sighing as he leaned back, "I wish I could've spent more time with you guys over the last few years."

"Son," Minato merged onto a lane as he spoke to Naruto, "You're following your dreams. The path you set forth for yourself, no matter how difficult and time consuming, is your path alone. Just know, no matter what, I and mom love you."

"We only want you to be happy."

"True." The robotic voice simply replied on the scroll.

Huffing a little bit, Naruto wrote on the scroll, "I did some research on Atlasian Medicine Technology while in Shadow Academy."

Minato frowned, sadness filling his eyes, "Naruto…you know…"

"It's worth a shot, never know, unless you try," Naruto replied as he put his stylus away.

The blondes just stared at each other, Minato reaches over, patting Naruto's shoulder.

Sasuke was sitting on the couch in the living room of The Namikaze Estate. He watched as his brother played patty cake with Kihana. Kushina was in the kitchen putting the finishing touches of the food, and cake that Kihana tried her best on. He gets up, yawning, and looking at her.

"Aunt Kushina, is there anything I can do to help?" Sasuke inquired, bored out of his mind.

Kushina perked up, "Actually, yes. Could you be a dear and run out and get the mail?"

"Of course," Sasuke smiled, walking toward the door and opening it.

Exiting the house, Sasuke walked toward the mailbox, behind him was the three-story estate surrounded by a lush garden. A cherry blossom tree, with a swing, at the front of it. Sunflowers, roses, and even orchids bloomed in the nippy weather around the house. Sasuke always noted that there just seem to be a glow, and indeed, the warmth inside Naruto's house.

Getting the bills, he couldn't help but glance at one listed for Naruto, under an official seal. The seal was that of Beacon Academy, stamped firmly on the letter, addressing Naruto as Mr. Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze. His full name, and was dated for delivery today of all days, the raven-haired youth felt the weight of the letter.

This very letter was either another long list of denied entries or the golden ticket. Tucking the letter into the bottom of the pile, Sasuke walked back toward the house. He then saw his mother, walking up the road, she was holding the new edition family. A small, frail, but adorable daughter named Fū.

"Sasuke, is Itachi with you?" His mother questioned him.

"Yes," Sasuke answered, "He's in the house, mother. What's going on, where's dad at?"

"Your father is running behind, official Huntsmen Guard Business in town, apparently the mainland's Dust Robberies have made it here." She told her son, walking up to him, bouncing her daughter up and down.

"Aunt Mikoto!" Their conversation was interrupted as Kihana bursts out of the door, screaming with glee.

"Hey there, Little Fox, where is Tomato?" Mikoto questioned, slightly chuckling.

"Mama is finishing the food, c'mon, you need to sit down. Itachi is teaching me how to play dominoes next!" Kihana ushered, cheerfully telling her aunt to relax.

Mikoto smiled, "I'll be inside son, are you waiting for him out here?"

"I might as well, who knows, we may have Sakura show up as well." Her son replied, stoic in his voice regarding the girl.

Mikoto giggled, "Right, just hope they aren't late…Minato has a habit like your father."

Rolling his eyes, the onyx-eyed youth watched as his mother walked into the Namikaze Estate. He smiled when he saw Fū's little tuft of black hair on her head. His sister was born just born no more than a couple months ago, and it was rare of his mother to take her out in public.

His father being head of Vale Guards was also a contributor to the family's tendency to be very anti-social. However, his father grew up with Minato and Kushina, and from the stories he heard, directly pointed him toward his mother. Since then, Namikaze and Uchiha, have been family.

Sasuke, sighing, waited on his sworn brother.

He didn't have to wait long, over the crest of a nearby hill, came an orange rust bucket. Pulling up to the front of the estate, the doors opened, allowing an alabaster-haired girl to exit the van first. She grabbed her stuff, yawning, and then looking at the house.

"Holy crap, that's a huge home, dude!" The violet-eyed girl gawked, stunned at the size and beauty of it, if it had been any bigger it would be worthy of a mansion.

"As I said on way down here, after getting out of the tunnel, I have a day job besides being a Huntsman. Plus, Kushi, owns one of the biggest of floral shops in Patch." Minato reminded her, he got out and stretched, "Man I'm used to running…my legs are stiff."

Naruto got out, yawning as well, but then noticed Sasuke. Both stared at each other, both smiled then brightly before they walked toward each other. Fist bumping, followed by a tight hug, Naruto and Sasuke grunted as they squeezed the life out each other.

"You first dumbass!" Sasuke yelled, grunting at Naruto's strength.

The blonde smirked, giving him the middle finger behind his back, both finally broke the hug. Amira looked at them, noting how close they were.

"Hey, Naruto, is he…your boyfriend?" She shyly inquired, curious as to why they were so close.

Both teens blushed brightly, Naruto with his head shaking and Sasuke yelling, "NO!"

The older blonde laughed, "To be fair, on the outside you two would make a good couple."

Naruto gawked, blushing mad, shaking his head more rapidly. Sasuke visibly retched, the idea of him and Naruto made him sick, simply because they grew up together. It would be almost like an incestual relationship, and mere inkling disgusted the sworn brothers. Amira, rubbing the back of her head, looked at the raven-haired youth.

"I'm Amira, Amira Mirabella," She held out her hand while greeting him.

Sasuke sighed and took her hand, "Sasuke, Sasuke Uchiha."

Minato noted several footprints in his dirt pathway, "Who's all here, Sasuke?"

"Your wife, your daughter, my big brother, mom, and my little sister," Sasuke answered methodically, walking with them toward the house.

Opening the door, he saw Itachi with a palm over his face, "Everything okay?"

"Yes and no," Itachi bemoaned, "Turns out Kihana is a masterful player of dominos…and beat me."

Holding back his laughter, Sasuke turned around, not trying to burst out. Keeping his stoic appearance as best as possible, he turned back around. Itachi just glared daggers at him, daring him to laugh, because then they would go outside and settle last night. Immediately shutting up, which was smart, Sasuke watched Kihana smiled brightly.

Without warning, much to Naruto's grief, Kihana slammed into him. Knocking them both to the ground, wincing, Naruto breathed deeply as Kihana looked down at him. Her bright smile was infectious as her older brother matched her smile. Getting up, Naruto kissed his sister's forehead, smiling as they both signed toward each other.

"How was Shadow?"
"Good."
"I missed you, big brother."
"I miss your as well, Kiki."
"Love you!"
"Love you too!"

Kihana grabbed Naruto's hand, "Aunt Mikoto had the baby!"

Mikoto came from the kitchen, looking at Naruto, "Is it me or am I looking at a younger Minato?"

The blonde smiled brightly, walking toward his aunt, bending over a little to look down at the bundle in her arms. She had a round face, with the chubby baby fat one would expect, opening her eyes, Fū's onyx eyes met Naruto's oceanic blue. Smiling, the blonde poked her nose gently, eliciting a gurgled giggle from the infant.

Walking into the kitchen, Naruto looked at the table, there was a birthday cake on the table. It wasn't made by his mother, obviously, the icing was a little bit of a mess. He still smiled warmly though, walking toward his mother, she stopped cooking after finishing the last bit of ramen. She turned to her son, smiling as she threw her arms around him. Naruto wrapped his arms around his mother, smiling as both swayed a little.

"I'm so glad your home my little Sunshine, is that your friend in there?" Kushina asked, looking right at Amira.

Naruto nodded, breaking the hug and walking back into the living room. Amira was busy introducing herself to Itachi, who was just as calm as ever. Despite having been humiliated in a game of dominos against a small child, he was sitting cross-legged as he looked at the teen before him. The man got up, looking at Naruto, smiling.

"Oi, Naruto, have you mastered your semblance yet?" Itachi asked, curious to the level of progress Naruto had made.

Naruto smirked, nodding before signing, "The base of it is all mine."

"Good, because Sasuke has been wanting to spar you for a while." Itachi stated, getting up fully before stretching, "And, I've been wanting to spar against your father."

"Boys," Mikoto complained as she pinched her nose, "Can't you think of anything else?"

"Nope." Minato answered, looking at his wife, "Kushi…"

"NOT UNTIL YOU EAT!" She screamed, fire in her eyes, "I refuse to let the food I slaved over for hours get cold because you want to have a one-sided spar!"

"One-sided?!" All of them but Naruto shouted.

"I am joining in, you think I'd miss a chance for a free-for-fall, Kushina Uzumaki Namikaze will dominate and decimate! How about it Mikoto, wanna join in?!" Kushina excitedly exclaimed, her eyes burning with fire.

Mikoto gave her a look, "Kushina…I had a baby recently, I'm far too out of shape to fight. Honestly, when is the last time you trained?"

Kushina's eyes widened, she grew stiff, "Eh?! Well…um…I…"

"Mama, I can fight in your place!" Kihana exclaimed.

"No, you won't young lady, the boys tend to get overexcited in a fight, remember when Sasuke broke Naruto's arm?" Kushina recalled, and then rubbing her chin, "To be fair didn't Naruto break Sasuke's right hand?"

"He sprained it, it didn't break, and I didn't break his arm…fractured it." Sasuke corrected his aunt, grumbling a little bit as he did.

Groaning, the redhead pinched her nose, "Still…food first."

Everyone was digging in, Itachi was eating a modest bowl at the end of the couch. Kihana and Naruto were burying food into their face left and right, like their mother. Minato was sipping some of the broth from the bowl he had, Amira was just trying to act polite. The poor Mirabella was totally bewildered at the mannerisms and was afraid to offend.

"This food is amazing, where did you learn to cook this good?" Amira inquired, feeling her taste buds light up on every chopstick slurp of noodles.

Kushina giggled, stopping her gorging, "I learned from my mother in law, Tsunade."

"Shima, is she still around, is she going to be here today?" Amira questioned, curious as to meeting her friend's family more.

"Unfortunately, Tsunade and Jiraiya don't get out often, and they won't be able to make it. Father lives in Atlas, writing books, and mother…well, they're going through a rough patch." Minato sighed, taking a deep breath, "They were always at odds."

The girl, flustered, raised her hands up. "I'm sorry, I hope I didn't bring up anything bad."

"No, you're fine, its been something for a while. Personally, I think they just like causing drama. My mother can be a dramatic piece of work sometimes, and my father is just too laid back to care to be here. That's fine, but he's missing out on his children's children." Minato replied, obviously a bit sour on the subject.

Amira, keying into this, decided to change the subject. "So, wow, Vale…I never been to a big city."

"Oh, country girl?" Kushina asked, smiling.

"Yep, born and raised. My father owns a small ranch in Vacuo's mountain regions, we raised cattle for eatin' and horses for racing. In fact, my father taught me how to shoot." Amira stated, proudly.

"Neat, I don't mean to compare, but I think I have to say that I taught Naruto everything he knows." Minato laughed as Naruto shot him a look, "Oh c'mon son, you know it's true."

Whistling as he finished eating, Naruto leaned back in his chair, patting his stomach. Sasuke got out of the bathroom, yawning as he went for seconds. Naruto immediately got up, getting seconds right behind him, both bumping into each other over the last few dumplings.

Their bumping became more aggressive, shoving ensued, with Naruto being put on one foot as Sasuke muscled himself toward the last few dumplings. Instead of letting him win, Naruto smirked, grabbing Sasuke's shoulder. The raven-haired youth was about to scream, "Cheater," before Naruto flashed himself and Sasuke away in an orange flash.

Kushina grumbled, "Guess if Naruto wants to play dirty, it's only fair for Sasuke to do the same thing."

"Three…two…one…" Mikoto counted down.

The sudden sound of electricity filled the upstairs bedroom, followed by the lights flickering. Sasuke came running down the steps, with Naruto hot on his trail, singed slightly in a comical way. Sasuke reached for the dumplings, only for Naruto to flash in front of him, but before he could grab them Minato suddenly appeared and grabbed the dumplings.

"Sorry boys," Minato winked before flashing away in a yellow flash.

Both Sasuke and Naruto groan, with Naruto just doing the actions of it. The duo then smirked draping arms over their shoulders before walking into the living room. Amira giggled a little, she liked how they were brotherly, she was an only child after all.

Kihana hummed as she ate, stopping once she finished, "Mama I'm finished!"

"Very good dear, go take your dishes to the sink please," Kushina ordered her daughter, lightly, with a smile.

The girl got up, running toward the sink with her bowl, putting it in. The girl began to wash some of the dishes in the sink, with Itachi finishing and coming to help her. There was a knock on the front door, Minato, who had flashed into the living room answered it. It was Fugaku, the man had a fresh wound on his cheek, all bandaged up.

"Honey, are you alright?" Mikoto asked, getting up while holding their youngest daughter.

"I'm fine hon," Fugaku answered her. "Looks like The Dust Robberies are here as well."

"Damn," Mikoto cursed as she leaned back in her chair, "Why would they do such things?"

"Either way, Vale has a declared a Yellow Standby. Just in case is terrorist activity and not your run of the mill mafia stretching its power. Either way, I'm pretty me, and Minato here will be very well attentive into taking care of things." Fugaku stated, looking toward his sworn brother.

Minato nodded, "Yes, when you find the guy behind this first…or Gal."

"Pfft, whatever spiky, what smells good!" Fugaku walked toward the kitchen, looking at the food, "Ooh spicy ramen…my favorite."

"Hehe, go nuts, you should really eat quickly though. Apparently, the other boys want to have a free for all spar in a little bit." Kushina told him, leaning back in her chair and sipping some tea.

Fugaku groans, "Go figure, I have feeling that I'll be joining in."

"You will be joining in, can't let these young ones think we're getting too old, can't we?" Minato jeered, lovingly of course as he draped his arm around Fugaku's shoulder.

The older Uchiha rolled his eyes, "Yeah, yeah…whatever…if anyone is getting slower it is you, Yellow Flash."

"Pfft, whatever, I can still outrun anything you throw." Minato shot back, smirking along the way.

"Cake later then, Fugaku, hurry up and eat…I'm actually wanting to see where our sons stand against each other," Mikoto spoke up, smirking pridefully.

"Ahem," Kushina smirked as she too spoke up, "I believe my son will win."

"Eh, am I not a factor in this?!" Minato yelped a little, surprised Kushina wasn't considering him a winner.

Kushina winked, teasing him, "Maybe~."

The group all made their way to a small field, far from the estate, just in case. Minato's van and Fugaku's car was parked on the dirt road nearby. Minato was setting the rules for the spar.

"No guns, no weapons, just your semblance and hand to hand. If your aura drops, you are out, end of discussion. No cheating, no dirty blows, and let's all have some fun. We'll all start one hundred feet from each other, ready?" Minato yelled out as he backed up, getting within his hundred feet.

Itachi smirked, "I'm ready to win…as usual…"

Fugaku grumbled, "Careful there, getting overconfident, are we?"

The youngest male Uchiha just stood there, rolling his eyes, humming. He watched as Minato held his hand up, Naruto standing opposite him. The blonde was already in a combat stance, ready to fight as his eyes darted from Sasuke to Itachi. The blondes then glared at each other, and then Minato saw Kihana run out.

"Dad, I'll signal, I'll signal!" She screamed, turning toward everyone with both her hands up. "Alright!"

Without much warning, a gout of fire blew forth from her mouth before she ran off, "BEGIN!"

The oldest child of Minato just dashed forward toward Sasuke. Both running full force at one another, with Minato and Fugaku running off to the side. Itachi was casually walking forward, watching as Naruto and Sasuke traded the first punches of the fight. With both blocking and deflecting blows left and right. Grunting, and growling filled the air between them as they went back and forth.

Sasuke jumped away, turning midair before blue lightning crackled around him, "Eat this, Naruto!"

Bolts of lightning shot from Sasuke, Naruto's eyes widened a little bit before he smirked, dodging the first one with ease. The second bolt missed him as he flashed behind Sasuke, surprising the older youth, but Sasuke managed to turn around in time and block Naruto's kick.

Itachi whistled as both landed, his eyes shifting into a red color, with pupil-like objects spinning around his normal pupil. He smirked as he targeted Sasuke of all the people, and when Sasuke leaped at Naruto, the younger Uchiha was suddenly engulfed in a shadowy mass. Naruto jumped back, avoiding the mass in time, watching as Sasuke used his semblance to cut his way through the mass.

Both turned to Itachi, he shrugged, a nonchalant smile on his face. Both teens looked at the young man, nodding at each other before dashing toward Itachi. The young man easily blocked Sasuke's semblance with his aura shield and avoided a palm thrust by Naruto, who was aiming to apply his semblance.

Naruto's eyes briefly flashed red as he dodged a kick by Itachi, watching as Sasuke got knocked back by a punch. Itachi casually walked forward, punching lightly and forcing Naruto to compete with his combat speed. The blonde was having some trouble, forced to the defensive rather quickly.

As they fought, Minato suddenly went flying back, sliding across the ground to a dead stop. The man faced Fugaku, who had an ethereal warrior around him. Amira was in awe of it, watching the ethereal skeleton picked a boulder up before hurling it toward Minato. Minato flashed away, ending up on top of Fugaku, inside of the warrior. F

Fugaku growled, he gets kicked out of his semblance, watching as it disappeared. He had gotten marked earlier and was now at the total mercy of Minato…who showed none. Minato flashed above him, driving him into the ground with an elbow drop. His baleful aura sparking, Fugaku rolled his eyes, flustered at himself for being the first to lose.

Itachi hummed, looking at his father, "You were saying, father?"

"Shaddup alright, just win!" Fugaku yelled at his oldest son, limping off the field.

Minato hummed as he casually walked toward his son, Naruto having jumped back to engage his father while Sasuke handled Itachi. Lightning and shadow danced around the duo as they fought in the background, with Minato jogging with no sense of purpose toward his son. Naruto ran full sprint, appearing in front of Minato shortly, but the man easily blocked the flurry of kicks and punches his son launched.

The last kick was an ax kick, Naruto jumped up and tried to send one right into his face, only for the man to catch it. Minato's eyes shined with red power, smirking as he grabbed his son's angle before slamming him into the dirt.

"Oof, that had to hurt, sorry son!" Minato cheerfully stated as Naruto suddenly warped above him, surprising him.

Minato's head turned with the punch that Naruto gave him, spit flying out of his mouth. His son smirking all the long but winced when Minato laughed. His hand glowed with Naruto's sigil from the blonde had kicked him, apparently, his son had figured out a way to send his sigil through his feet as well.

Which meant one thing, "You've had an escape option the entire time."

Naruto smirked, sticking his tongue out before flashing back toward Sasuke. Just then, a massive wall of shadows headed toward Minato, the man rolled his eyes before placing his two sigils on the ground by him. On the back of Naruto's ankle, a small sigil glowed.

The older blonde held his hand up, "Flying Thunder God: Level Zero…Guiding Thunder."

His son's eyes widened as both him and Sasuke were suddenly in Itachi's shadows, which bounded them together. Itachi snapped his fingers, making the shadows blow up. The concussive force made Naruto's and Sasuke's aura break, forcing them out of the match.

Minato chuckled, "Well, well…haven't sparred you in a while, Itchy"

"Ahh, the old nickname sticks, so…" Itachi dashed forward suddenly, "…Let's get this going…"

Minato dodged the first few punches, countering with his own as he leaned back to avoid a sudden kick from Itachi. However, Itachi winced as he felt Minato deflect his kick with a palm thrust. As Minato went to use his semblance, Itachi held his hands up.

"I surrender…the match is over."

"Eh?!" Sasuke, Amira, Mikoto, Kushina, and even Kihana shouted in surprise.

"Smart, the moment I touched your leg with my semblance it was done. You had no real way of countering my semblance, and once you were marked, I controlled the battle fully beyond that point. I have to say, Itachi, you truly grew up to be a wise young warrior." Minato stated, walking over to the young man and ruffling his hair.

Itachi smirked, getting slightly flustered, "Thanks, Uncle…"

Sasuke grunted, "Go figure, your father won…"

Naruto rolled his eyes, signing, 'We pick bad fights.'

"That we do, that we do…" Sasuke bemoaned as he and Naruto walked toward the van with the rest of the group.

Amira was out like a light, Naruto had given her his bed, which was super soft. The blonde was downstairs as he was watched as Mikoto, Itachi, and Fugaku leave. The teen smiled, thanking them for the birthday gifts of extra dust crystals, and even an upgrade for his bracelets. Sasuke was the kitchen table, poor Kihana had a sugar coma, passed out at the table with her lightly snoring. She had her birthday gift clutched in her small hands, a small book detailing different recipes for Dust and combinations.

Sasuke yawned, watching as Minato and Kushina cleaned up the kitchen. Then he remembered, quickly reaching into his cloak's pocket, the raven-haired youth got out a letter addressed to Naruto. Everyone stopped, with the onyx-eyed youth smiling.

"I meant to give this to you earlier, but I forgot about it. It's from Beacon Academy," Sasuke told him, watching as everyone tensed up.

Naruto took the letter, taking a deep breath. Sasuke placed his hand on Naruto's shoulder, with the blonde's father and mother waiting with bated breath as he opened the letter. Slowly, peeling the letter open, the blonde read the small parchment.

'Dear Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze.

As you are aware Beacon Academy only accepts students with the highest caliber in training, grades, and potential. Reviewing the multiple forms, you sent, along with your Shadow Academy instructors testaments, we've come to a split decision to REVOKE your transfer request.

However, you are free to apply again next year. Please, continue your training, and may you find peace with this answer.

-Ozpin, Headmaster of Beacon Academy.'

Everyone was stunned silent, Naruto let the letter slip from his hands as they shook. Slowly, he felt his blood boil, he got up from the table. Kushina went to grab him, to try and pull him into a hug, but he slipped past her grasp and just watched as he left through the door.

He watched as stars shined brightly in the sky, he got to where he was away from the estate, dropping to his knees. Naruto felt that he needed to scream, but he couldn't instead, as tears poured from his eyes, he slammed his both of his fists into the ground. The impact cracking the ground around him, he felt rage boil over him, and it snapped as he sobbed.

All those years of hard work…the time he lost with his family…for nothing!

Sasuke walked out toward him, sitting on the ground next to him, "Naruto…its not the end of the world…"

Naruto sobbed, choking on them as he couldn't sob any other way, he looked at Sasuke with his burning bright red. Sasuke's eyes widened as the pupils inside of Naruto's eyes shifted to be more foxlike instead of hum, the raven-haired youth sighed and placed his on his friend's back.

"Try Haven, come with me then, it may not be Beacon…but…" Sasuke smiled, watching as Naruto calmed down. "I'm pretty damn sure they'll not turn you down."

Naruto took a deep breath, calming down, he'd have to write a letter tomorrow.
