Another scenario could be that they are forced to work together due to political reasons. Their villages, Konoha and the Sand Village, might have some sort of alliance that requires them to be partners. At first, they might be a bit resentful. But as they face challenges together, like dealing with a powerful enemy or a natural disaster that affects both villages, they realize that they have a lot in common. Naruto's desire to protect everyone and Temari's loyalty to her village could be the common ground that draws them closer.
One possible scenario could be that they start as rivals. Naruto, with his determination, and Temari, with her strong - willed nature, initially compete in various ninja tasks. But as time passes, they gradually come to respect each other's skills. For example, during a joint mission, Naruto's unwavering spirit might inspire Temari to be more open - minded about Konoha ninja. And Temari's strategic thinking could help Naruto in battle, leading to a deeper bond between them.
In some fanfictions, they might develop a friendship first. Naruto, being friendly and outgoing, could break through Temari's tough exterior. They could bond over their shared experiences of growing up in a ninja - dominated world. Maybe they start sharing stories about their families. Naruto could talk about his lonely childhood before he made friends, and Temari could share about the pressure of being from the Sand Village. This friendship could potentially turn into a romantic relationship over time.
If Temari is feeling stressed about her role as a shinobi in diplomatic matters, Naruto could offer his own perspective. He might say 'I'm not always good at the political stuff either, but I've learned that being true to yourself and your village is the most important thing. You're doing great, and everyone can see your strength and determination.' This would boost Temari's confidence and comfort her in her role.
In some 'naruto and temari hurt fanfiction', there could be a scenario where they get hurt during a battle with a powerful enemy. For example, they might be fighting against a rogue ninja group and sustain injuries while protecting their village.
One obstacle could be their different village loyalties. Naruto is from Konoha and Temari is from Suna. Their villages may have different interests at times, which could put a strain on their relationship. For example, if there are disputes over resources or political matters, they might be on opposite sides.
One scenario could be that Temari is poisoned during a battle and Naruto has to find the antidote in a very short time. He uses his shadow clones to search everywhere and in the process, he realizes how much he cares about Temari. Meanwhile, Temari, while weak from the poison, has flashbacks of her time with Naruto and hopes he can save her. This near - death experience could lead to a change in their relationship.
Perhaps they are training together. Temari is showing Shikamaru a new wind - based technique. As she demonstrates, her hair blows in the wind, and Shikamaru is captivated. After the demonstration, he compliments her skill, and she blushes. Then, in a sudden moment of closeness, they kiss for the first time, a kiss born out of mutual respect and growing attraction.
In some fanfictions, they could develop a romantic relationship over time. Maybe after a shared experience like saving the village together. Naruto, who has always been seen as an underdog, might find a special connection with Ino, who has her own insecurities but is also strong - willed. They could learn from each other and grow closer as they face challenges side by side.
Perhaps in a fanfiction, Naruto discovers some dark secrets about his parents that shatter his world view and send him into a depressive state. Temari, being a friend, comes to Konoha on a diplomatic mission and finds Naruto in this state. She tries to help him by sharing her own experiences of dealing with difficult family situations. However, the more she tries, the more she realizes how deep Naruto's pain is and she herself starts to feel a bit depressed due to her inability to fully help him.
Perhaps in the fanfiction, Naruto saves Temari from a great danger. This heroic act makes Temari see Naruto in a new light. They begin to spend more time together, training or just talking. As time passes, their friendship turns into love, and they decide to marry, uniting the Leaf and Sand villages in a new way.
One possible storyline could be that Naruto has to go on a dangerous mission that might cost him his life. Temari is in love with him but can't stop him. She's sad because she might lose him. Another could be that there are political tensions between Konoha and Suna again, and they are forced apart due to their loyalty to their respective villages. They're sad as they have to give up their relationship.
Maybe Naruto's illness is a result of some dark jutsu used against him. His illness could lead to him being unable to perform his ninja duties, and so his friends, like Sasuke and Sakura, have to take on extra missions to protect the village while also trying to find a way to heal him. They could search through ancient ninja scrolls for a remedy.
