So, for , and LazyFoxLover, the Idea that I was going to do, I will Incorporate into another story, this specific story, my original idea would work best. =) I can now continue the story.

Naruko lead her team through out the night and the next day. She was moving fast, and Kiba noticed. She had her Sharing an activated, and there were plenty of times that her step faltered. He picked up his speed so that he was next to9 her,

"Naruko. We've been moving for thirty eight hours, your sharingahn is taking a toll on your body. Your going to hurt your self." Kiba growled. Naruko looked at him, and her look was one of those "and?" looks. "Naruko, I know you could take a spear though your stomach and laugh about it, but we don't need you collapsing from Chakra exhaustion. And anyway... Chouji and Shikamaru are getting seriously tired. Neji has a headache from keeping his Byakugan activated, and Shino can over work his bugs or they'll die." Kiba explained, although Shikamaru and Chouji were fine, Neji could deal with a headache, and Shino didn't need to use his bugs, he was getting tired, and Naruko was about to pass out.

"Fine. She jumped to the ground and stumbled, her eyes clouding with pain, "We... were stopping for a few hours. Then we move again!"She Immediately lay on a soft looking patch of grass and subsequently, fell asleep, dead to the world.

"oh Kami, shes going to run her self into the ground." Kiba sighed as he looked at the pretty blonde.

"That's why you need to protect her. She needs to not over use her sharingahn" Shikamaru grumbled, "It's Troublesome, but she might burn out her optical nerves."

"Gee. That's... bad." Kiba gulped as he scratched the back of his head. Akamaru barked as if to say: "Duh".

"Protect her Kiba. Every time we, or you see her becoming too tired, you need to be the one to care for her." Chouji sighed.

Meanwhile in Konoha, Sakura and Lee were standing at the Hokage's Desk.

"Tsunade-sama, why didn't you let us go with them? You know my strength and Lee's speed would help them." Sakura asked, sounding exasperated.

"One of these boys has to fall in love with her and marry her when they return. You obviously couldn't do that, and lee is married, to you. So, that wouldn't have worked." Tsunade explained. Sakura and Lee looked at each other and started laughing,

"Oh my god. Tsunade. If your hoping for this to work, you've destined Naruko for Kiba."

"Why do you say that Lee? Why not Neji? I know the young hyuuga has feelings for her." Tsunade asked.

"Tsunade-sama, I believe ever man in Konoha, has some sort of feelings for Naruko. Shes strong, proud, and very pretty. Hey, hey Sakura-hime, I of course had feelings for Naruko... but you have all ways been my love." this last sentence was from a flaming angry look from his overly possessive wife.

"Anyway, Tsunade-sama, Naruko is in love with Sasuke." Sakura sighed.

"So were you. For years you said you would marry Sasuke if he ever returned." Tsunade said. Sakura turned a shade of pink to match her hair, and glanced at Lee who was looking at the ground,

"Well. I grew up. I realized Sasuke and Naruko were always meant for each other. She almost got him to come home... but.." Sakura trailed off, her tears weren't from a lost love, but a values friend and teammate. Lee came and hugged her, and Sakura cried into his chest, "N-Naruko should e able to preserve her love for him!"

"Sakura... sweetheart, I do agree." Tsunade sighed, she sounded sad her self, "But Naruko is going to be forced into a breeding facility by the council, because her sharingahn was transferred perfectly. The Counsel believes that the Uchiha clan can be restored. Do you know what happens to a Jin-jurriki as old as Naruko when she gives more that two or three births?The Kyuubi would be ripped from her and she would die. Then her children would be forced into a breeding program the moment they're ready. Do you think that would be better than Marrying Kiba or Shikamaru?"

"Well, Tsunade, I would rather her marry Kiba, but only if she loves him. And... Kiba is the only one out of the boys that you picked that's not in a political marriage, planning to marry someone else, or in a despicable clan that often forces its members to marry kin." Sakura sniffed.

"Who's in a political marriage?" Tsunade squeaked.

"Shino and Chouji."

"Marrying someone else?"

"Shika."

"Well, I can guess Neji is the one in the awful clan. I hope that Hinata can fix that awful family." Tsunade sighed. "Sakura, then I want you and Lee to go. Send Shikamaru and Shino back, that way, Shikamaru can have some time to plan his wedding, Shino needs to complete his marriage. I cant believe I forgot that I OK-ed that Marriage to the wasp clan..." Tsunade began shuffling through her papers. Sakura and Lee Smiled,

"Hai, Hokage Sama" they turned and left. Tsunade sent a hawk to Naruko's team with a message to stay put.

A few hours later, Naruko woke up to find the boys huddled around a piece of paper. Shikamaru was packing his stuff along with Shino.

"Hey guys, whats goin on?"

"Tsunade said Shino and Shikamaru have to return, and she;s sending Sakura and Lee to replace them. She wants us to stay here until they reach us." Kiba explained. Naruko nodded with a smile,

"I'm glad its Pinky and Bushy-brow they're sending."

"Wont you miss us whiskers?" Shikamaru smiled,

"Of course you stupid pineapple head. Now get the hell outta here." she laughed. Kiba smiled, he loved the sound of her laugh.
