72: Welcome to Club N: Part III: See the Real Me (2)

Kurenai sat in a hot-spring located in Konoha's bathing district. She felt a little strange sitting in it, not because she wasn't using the ones located on Kiyomi's property which she found she now preferred since becoming Naruto's lover. But her feelings stemmed from the reason she wasn't enjoying them at the moment, namely to begin the process which would likely see another woman joining the Family.

Waiting for the target to arrive, she spent the time recalling the night Naruto had come home and informed the women of the Hidden Eddy Inn of Shikamaru's request. She had been rather shocked to learn that a part of the reason Shikamaru had approached him was because he had noticed the change in her. Kurenai couldn't deny that since taking Naruto as a lover, she had become more upbeat and energetic. She learned a part of it was likely due to the deaging process, but also it felt like she was always basking under a warm sun lately. She suspected it was that feeling which was what caused the women bound to Naruto to be willing to share him. After all, she felt grateful to Yuugao and the others for including her in their family, which was why she had been the one to suggest the strategy they were going to apply to draw Yoshino in.

Kurenai had been rather surprised at her joining in with the other women as they had pitched ideas. But, she suspected that it was because with all the women already attached to him, and all the tools that he had developed to seduce them, he had focused in on what to her had been the most important issue to seducing the Nara. Which was that he had never really interacted with Yoshino on any kind of personal level. That to the red-eyed jounin had all but proven what a unique young man Naruto was. It highlighted for her that what was important to Naruto was the relationship he developed with the women bound to him.

Speaking of which, Kurenai wasn't sure what she was looking for from the one that now existed between her and the blond. After all, there was still a lot of things that she needed to process so had opted that for the moment she just wanted to enjoy the fantastic sex life that she now had. But, in time she knew that she may want more, and couldn't be sure what form that desire would take. Particularly, in regards to being a mother again. After all, she had failed to maintain her vow that she didn't deserve to be happy. She was surprised that she didn't feel guilty about it, but suspected it was because being around women like Tsunade and Yuugao as they enjoyed their relationships with Naruto had helped to show her how foolish such a desire was.

Still, while aware of Naruto's own lack of interest in having children, she couldn't say that she shared it, at least not anymore. She felt a wave of sadness as she thought of her lost child, who for her tombstone had settled on the name Mirai. She was aware that Naruto's chakra could likely return her child and even husband to life. She had remembered Naruto's hesitance when he had told her of the ability. He had after all, quickly explained that he hadn't used it to bring his mother back as she had technically been alive inside him. It was a somewhat bitter pill for Kurenai to swallow that at the very least her new lover could return her child to her. Yet, believed it wasn't his place to decide who gets to live and who dies.

She supposed the one thing that was preventing that bitterness from growing inside her was the knowledge that Naruto wasn't purposefully using it to benefit himself. After all, she was sure there were people he would love to see returned to the world of the living. She did smile as she imagined how awkward it would be if he returned his father, since she had heard Kushina gossiping with Ino about who was the better lover. She hadn't been too surprised when the red-head had shown a motherly pride as she explained how Naruto came out ahead in almost every category. It was an assessment that she had to share, and one that judging from the faces of the other women who had taken lovers before him was one they shared as well. Kurenai imagined that if Naruto did use his ability to return the men some of his lovers had lost, Kushina wouldn't be the only one telling them how they failed to compare to Naruto.

Kurenai didn't know if that would be her, even though she did admit Naruto was the better lover in bed. But Asuma had been her one true love for so long that she didn't know if she wanted that feeling replaced. After all, she would admit that a part of her did feel like a cradle robber due to the age difference between them. A feeling she could imagine had been much greater for Tsunade and Koharu. Although she doubted either of them felt it any longer, particularly since they had been made younger.

Kurenai knew it was something which was happening to her as well although at a more measured pace. She knew it, along with the immortality she was given, would end if she decided to have another child. And having outlived one. She could say that she would gladly do so if she decided to have another, especially since Kiyomi would refuse to bestow the gift to said child. She imagined that if Naruto pressed hard enough he could get her to relent, but she doubted Naruto would do so. Particularly since it was a gift Kiyomi had given to the women of the Family, and the rules tied to that gift were based on her beliefs.

Kiyomi could understand the logic behind them, but she suspected that what was at the heart of why was how the Sage of the Six Paths had essentially sacrificed his immortality to create the Bijuu. As such, engraved in the Bijuu's consciousness was the belief that such a price should be paid to bring about a new life for an immortal. Kurenai could even understand why Naruto would be the exception for the rule since his life was no longer just his own. In many ways it belonged to each of the women that made up the Family, and if one of them decided to give up their immortality to have a child. Then Naruto would have to shoulder the burden. She suspected it was why most of the women didn't seem inclined to have one. Kurenai wondered if in time her feelings for Naruto would grow to the point where being with him was worth more than trying again to be a mother.

She heard Ino's voice so prepared to play her part as a good example of why being a mother and wife could become a hollow existence as well appeared with the blonde as they exited the bathhouse.

"Kurenai," Ino said chipperly as she appeared with Yoshino. "I'm glad to see you out and about."

"It's good to be so," Kurenai said amused while the two women slipped into the water. "Although to be honest, I'm rather glad the baths seem to be empty. I suppose I am still rather prone to try and avoid the company of others."

"Considering what you've lost it is understandable," Yoshino said sympathetically. "I, myself would have preferred to have just gone home after today's council meeting, but was harangued into coming here."

"Ah come on Yoshino," Ino said with a pout, "You need to get out more. There will be plenty of time for lying about doing nothing when you're dead."

"Ino, I do not need to be lectured by you again, especially since you got your way already," Yoshino said sternly. "How I spend my time when not attending the Council Meetings is none of your concern."

"But it is your son's," Ino said undeterred, "And he's worried about you, which makes it my concern too."

"Well I'll thank you both to mind your own business," Yoshino said quickly with a hint of anger entering her tone.

Ino sighed but let the matter drop figuring that pushing her any further would cause the Nara to leave. Still, it didn't stop her from taking a small potshot at the woman as she turned her attention to Kurenai. "Speaking of women that needed to get out more, it's good to see you are at least willing to take the chance of running into people not just living at our home Kurenai."

Kurenai smiled since she knew Ino was teasing her as well as prodding Yoshino further. She saw that it worked as the Nara bristled slightly. She had to marvel at the Yamanaka's dedication to Naruto since the woman had eagerly joined in with the plotting of how to bring Yoshino and her lover together. In fact, once Kurenai had suggested her idea it had been Ino that had fleshed it out, and then assigned the roles to the other women that would help. Naruto had needed to leave on his mission to escort a shipment back to Kumo along with Karui and Yoruichi. Samui had opted to stay behind since Ino had requested it because she wanted a Kumo-nin present at least for the first stage. Still, Naruto had apparently been confident to leave Ino in charge of the matter, and Kurenai guessed that she shouldn't have been surprised since the Yamanaka had a hand in a good number of the women that had joined his Family. Still, Kurenai had been rather surprised to learn that Ino had just been about to set her sights on her, but had been beaten to it by Yuugao. Despite all the future concerns, she was grateful to the women that had offered her a spot among them so felt it was only right to do the same for Yoshino.

"I suppose you are planning to take credit for my willingness to rejoin the world of the living," Kurenai said giving the blonde a wide smile.

"Hardly," Ino said while mirroring it, "I know that honor belongs to Yuugao for speaking with the management on your behalf. I can honestly say I think we were all shocked at just what kind of show you put on though." Ino's smile turned slightly lecherous as she asked, "Any chance we'll get an encore?"

Kurenai blushed as she recalled being at the center of a Naruto clone gangbang. "I don't know about that," she answered, "I did lose my head a bit that night. I think any future performances will be rather tame in comparison. But you all were right; it did help me to remember that life was going on around me."

Yoshino had the sense that Ino had arranged the little trip just so she could conveniently be present for her conversation with Kurenai. She was about to state as much when Ino surprised her as she said, "Dammit, speaking of life going on. I promised my mom that I'd watch the shop for her since Aeris had the day off. I better get going."

Ino quickly pulled herself out of the water and ran naked back to the bathhouse. Yoshino shook her head, but a part of her marveled at what a beauty the woman had turned into, and how lucky she was to have her whole life ahead of her. It made Yoshino feel rather wistful which was quickly replaced with depression as she recalled how Shikamaru was also at the age where he didn't need to rely on her. Moreover, while she had truly enjoyed her life, she admitted there was now a sense that her best days were behind her.

She supposed what Ino had wanted her to take away from the conversation was that life needed to be lived for it to be determined if that was the case. But, she felt it wasn't true in her case. She had once had the potential to be a kunoichi along the same lines of Tsunade or even Tsume, but had opted to instead focus on being a mother and wife. Her husband had never pressured her, as he hadn't needed to since it was readily assumed by most that would be the case. She just hadn't felt a need to break against tradition, after all, she could easily imagine that if she had left on a long term mission she'd come how to find her son and husband near death as they would barely be able to cook for themselves.

Therefore, after her husband's death and Shikamaru proving in the months after that he didn't need her to function. Yoshino had found herself less and less interested in the world at large. She felt she was too old to start over in love, not that there were a lot of men interested in settling down with a widowed woman of her age, and having retired as a chunin felt trying to pick up there was a waste of time. Something that also translated into the lack of dedication that she displayed in being the Clan Head of the Nara. In truth, she just felt completely disconnected from the world so found expending any effort to be a part of it too troublesome.

Her gaze drifted over towards Kurenai, who with Ino gone seemed content to let the silence between them linger. She easily could spot the change in the woman particularly since before when she had seen her in the cemetery as they mourned their lost loves; she had appeared to have a similar outlook as her. It was often said by many kunoichi that marriage was in many ways similar as to dying. Yoshino had never taken the saying too seriously, seeing it as a way for women to justify their refusing to settle down. The reality of the statement became all too apparent once she had lost her husband, and judging from Kurenai's reaction to losing hers, she guessed that it didn't matter how long after getting married the loss happened for a woman to feel the same. She suspected had Kurenai's daughter survived the woman would have found it easier to carry on as she would have focused on raising her child, but losing both had doomed her in much the same way Yoshino had felt cursed to have outlived her husband.

Yet, she didn't see any sign of that half-dead woman now in Kurenai. In fact as she sat there Yoshino would go so far as to say she looked radiant. She suspected that it might have been because Kurenai was young enough and beautiful enough to start over. After all, it was sad to say that in the Shinobi Villages love while important could be described as almost secondary to most second marriages. This was because in villages like Konoha there were a surplus of widows, and very few unattached men were willing to take on a wife with a previous marriage on her record when they could have one without to start their own families. This was primarily due to most women retiring after having a child so as to not leave an orphan behind. There were situations where this system didn't protect the child in question such as the Kyuubi attack where nearly every shinobi and reservist of a certain age had been called up to deal with it. This had resulted in lots of orphans being created.

But with many incidents since then taking place far away from the village. Konoha had quickly once more found itself with a growing problem of widows outpacing the number of men available or willing to be with them. That didn't necessarily translate into a lack of a healthy sex life, since the nightlife of Konoha could easily supply that in terms of men looking to seduce a lonely woman. But, Yoshino was not interested in a one night stand. She wanted to be fulfilled like she had been, but sadly saw little chance of that happening.

She supposed she might be giving up before she even began, since Tsunade proved that a woman could rise to prominence at a late age. But, truthfully she had traded on her past achievements to become Hokage, and while many had recognized Yoshino's abilities in analyzing data to come up with probable scenarios leading to some calling her the Oracle as at times she seemed capable of predicting the future. It had been so long since she had actually used that particular skill set, she doubted it even worked anymore. The world had changed too much from the one she knew, and in truth it required someone willing to connect with it to such a degree that she didn't even care to try.

Yet despite her thoughts on the matter, she couldn't help wondering what it was that had changed in Kurenai to give her such a glow. It filled her with a sense of curiosity which had been such a key component to her Oracle skills, and was something that she hadn't felt in ages. Therefore, she couldn't help asking, "Kurenai, about that place you and Ino were speaking of. How exactly did it help you pick up the pieces?"

Kurenai grimaced as she looked around to insure they were still alone. Leaning in conspiratorially she replied, "Ino really shouldn't have said anything about it, and I guess I should have reminded her of that instead of responding as I did."

Yoshino frowned before asking, "So you can't tell me about it?"

"I'm sorry," Kurenai said quickly and sincerely. "A part of the reason though is because I doubt you would believe me even if I did. But well, if you really want to know... speak with the Lady Kiyomi."

"If it is so secretive will she not just brush me off as well?"

"Tell her I sent you," Kurenai said pulling herself out of the water, "It should at least convince her to give you a chance to see it for yourself."

Yoshino frowned as she watched the woman leave unsure what it was she would find if she did as instructed. Yet, she also found herself growing more and more curious about it as well, particularly since if she could attribute Kurenai's recovery to it, couldn't help but wonder if it might not have been responsible for the growth she had seen in Ino as well. After all, if there had been a kunoichi that Yoshino imagined would have embraced the idea that it was a kunoichi's job to find a good looking and strong man to settle down with to raise children, she would have pegged Ino as it. Yet the formerly boy crazy girl had matured into a stunningly beautiful woman that had to beat suitors away with a stick and often told them her heart was already spoken for. She then would make it sound like she was speaking of the village, but Yoshino found it hard to believe that it was just her duties as a counselor that made the Yamanaka so passionate. Figuring she would see for herself, Yoshino pulled herself out of the water to head home as it had grown rather late so figured it could wait a few days before following up.

*****************************

Soifon headed out into the woods as it was close to the time Naruto had instructed her to meet him. They were heading back to Konoha and were still a few days out after remaining in the Hidden Cloud village for close to a week. She suspected that the reason for the delay in the return was because Naruto had helped the newest kunoichi tied to him move into the Hidden Thunder Inn. She felt her cheeks heat up as she imagined how the blond and red-head had likely broken in her new living quarters. She felt a pang of jealousy as Yoruichi had been with them, and even though she had been invited to the welcoming party being held for Karui as well. She had refused to go since she imagined an orgy would likely take place. When they had left the following morning with another blonde replacing Karui, and who had introduced herself as Yugito, it wasn't hard to imagine that she had been right about how they spent their evening.

Strangely enough Soifon found that she wasn't jealous of Naruto as much as the other women surrounding Yoruichi lately. She guessed her feelings stemmed from her wanting to be able to be as close to her idol as they appeared to be. It had led her to wonder if the wall that existed between her and the dark-skinned woman would come down if she gave herself to Naruto. After all it was apparent that Karui had been a new induction to the man's growing Harem and so she figured she couldn't have interacted with Yoruichi nearly as much as she had. Yet, the golden eyed woman had seemed more at ease around the red-head then her. It was something which stung Soifon to no end.

As a result, she had acted coldly towards Yoruichi for the rest of the trip back to Kumo after the mini-orgy between her, Naruto, Karui, and Temari. She had the small and bitter satisfaction of her actions at least appearing to bother the dark-skinned woman. Still, when Yoruichi had appeared to be content to let that be the new norm between them, she had nearly relented. But, instead she had doubled down due to her stubbornness something she figured might cause the rift between her and Yoruichi to grow as she knew the dark-skinned woman could be just as pig-headed.

Therefore it had been a rather difficult trip back for Soifon particularly as there seemed to exist a special bond between Yugito and Yoruichi. It had earned the Kumo-nin Soifon's ire as well. This was why it annoyed her that the woman didn't seem to care in the slightest.

Naruto and Temari though had made the trip easier for Soifon since they had prevented her from just stewing. Of course, the nights could have been hard for her since she was left alone with her thoughts, but as almost every one of them was filled with the pleased cries of the other women. She tended to be too busy taking care of the desires that hearing them filled her with.

That was why she was rather surprised Naruto had sought her out as they neared an inn located in Hot-Water Country and told her to meet him in the woods after dark. She had asked why, since a part of her felt he was going to make a pass at her. But, was pleased when Naruto told her that she felt it was time for the wall to come down between Yoruichi and her.

Following the directions that she had been given, she landed in a clearing and felt annoyed as she saw no one waiting for her. Wondering if she was being tricked she was about to turn back but heard something large move in the forest in front of her. "Naruto..." she called out cautiously.

However, instead of receiving an answer two large golden eyes appeared in the darkness. Soifon was frozen in fear as following behind the eyes as they appeared from the clearing edge was the head and body of the two-tailed cat. Granted, she had never seen it in person before, but there had existed enough drawings and descriptions of it to make it instantly recognizable. The Bijuu walked out of the forest its eyes locked squarely on her, and as it approached slowly Soifon began to take a step back.

As her foot landed behind her, Soifon immediately saw something appear in the Bijuu's eyes. Although, hard to read she had the feeling that it was disappointment. While still afraid, for some reason that she couldn't explain the thought of disappointing the Bijuu seemed to fill her with a feeling of dissatisfaction in herself. It left her feeling like she was on the verge of failing a test. When the Bijuu emerged fully from the woods, it came to a stop as if waiting to see how she would respond. Believing now that she was being tested, she began to think more clearly.

She immediately realized it made a certain amount of sense for the two-tails to be before her, since the host of the Bijuu was traveling with them. But, she didn't understand what Naruto had hoped to gain by having the woman scare her half to death, or how it would clear the air between Yoruichi and her. Yet, then Soifon's eyes grew wide as she thought about how Yugito and Yoruichi had a unique bond, and what it potentially meant. She didn't understand how such a thing could be possible since from her understanding the jinchuriki would die if the Bijuu was separated from it. Yet, studying the Bijuu's golden eyes she suddenly was quite sure that somehow such a thing had become possible.

"Lady Yoruichi," she said causing the Bijuu to gasp and even take a step back as Soifon took one forward.

It was Soifon's turn to look disappointed at the Bijuu's reaction, which was also heard in Naruto's voice as he said from behind her. "It's rather unfair of you to react in a similar manner as how you would have expected her to if she failed your test."

Soifon spun on her heel and as she typically did instantly leapt to Yoruichi's defense as she said, "You should not have forced her to reveal herself in such a way."

"Me," Naruto said pointing to himself in surprise. He then began chuckling which annoyed Soifon who softened her stance as he explained, "I just wanted to call you two out here so we could tell you the truth. Then if you didn't believe us, we'd have her show you."

"It's true, Soifon."

The former Leaf Chunin turned and blushed as Yoruichi had returned to her human form, her extremely naked human form. However, she noticed that despite having appeared nude in front of her many times, this time she did appear rather ashamed, although it wasn't due to her being naked. Soifon's blush deepened due to the bashful stance the dark-skinned woman was carrying herself with since she was trying to hide away her assets with one arm being placed in front of her breasts which was holding her other so that her hand rested in front of her groin.

"She's beautiful no matter the form she takes, isn't she?" Naruto asked whispering into her ear.

Soifon could only nod in agreement which caused a blush to appear on Yoruichi's cheeks. The Bijuu began to approach as she apologized, "I'm sorry for testing you in such a way. I... I was afraid you would react poorly, and I guess a part of me wanted you too."

"Why? Did you really think I would react any differently than the other women that found out your secret?"

"Yes," Yoruichi said sadly, "I really did. It's different for those women tied to Naruto... because they chose him, and he in turn chose them. B...but your interest was focused on me. I... I didn't know if I could trust my judgment in regards to you."

Soifon was hurt by what the Bijuu was admitting, but Naruto soothed it as he added, "Remember who it is you are dealing with. She has been coveted by humans for ages. Not to mention hunted and feared by them. Wasn't your initial interest in her born of her beauty and power? In that regards it might have felt little different than the others that wanted her for the same reasons. You just didn't know who it was you were truly dealing with. You judged her as a powerful human, but what if you knew from the beginning she was a Bijuu. Would you have panicked and ran away in fear as you nearly did instinctively?" Soifon couldn't deny that had been her initial response. She did begin to feel a sense of pride in herself as Naruto also explained, "You should consider her even being willing to show you the truth without being bound to me a great honor. You are not the first woman to learn of my Family without being bound, but are the first that has been trusted enough to learn the Bijuu have taken human form without being attached to a man that has learned of it. The men which have learned were made aware out of necessity or because I trust them completely. I couldn't say the same for you, until now at least."

Soifon although finding it difficult to tear her eyes away from Yoruichi, looked back at Naruto upon hearing that to ask, "A...are you not going to take me as a lover?"

"If it is something that you wish, then perhaps someday I will." Naruto smiled gently at her, before turning her gaze to face Yoruichi before stating, "But tonight I believe should be about you two."

Soifon was then pulled into a kiss by the nude Bijuu and although at first she was too shocked to move slowly began to relax into it. Naruto smiled as Soifon wrapped her arms around the Bijuu's body before turning to leave the two alone. Soifon stared into the woman's golden eyes which now shown warmly at her as their lips parted and whispered softly and contently, "Lady Yoruichi."

"Thank you Soifon for accepting me," the Bijuu said tenderly. She then pressed her lips to the young woman's again and was glad at how eagerly it was returned. She undid the clasp which held the woman's top up, and then undid the sash which held her the rest of her clothes together. She then stepped back slowly, letting the saliva that connected them still stretch until it broke, and enough room was created between them so that the woman's clothes pooled around her feet. Soifon hands quickly moved to cover body, but stopped as her lady said, "No, let me see you." Soifon did as instructed prompting the Bijuu to whisper, "Beautiful."

Soifon blushed and then found herself snatched up as the Bijuu picked her up. She found her lips once again were covered by the dark-skinned woman's so opened her mouth so their tongues could again dance. She also wrapped her legs around Yoruichi's hips as she was carried to a soft patch of grass and laid down.

She moaned as Yoruichi laid her down, and pressed her right thigh against her shaved mound. Soifon began to grind her pussy into her mentor and now lover's leg even as the purple-haired woman pressed it into her harder. She arched her back in pleasure as the woman broke her kiss and lowered her mouth to one of her pert breasts to lick around her hardened nub. When Yoruichi practically sucked in her entire breast she let out a loud groan and began rubbing her pussy even faster against the thigh making it grow wet with her essence. The feeling although pleasurable quickly was growing to be not enough prompting her to moan, "Please Lady Yoruichi... let me feel more."

"My how greedy of you Soifon," Yoruichi replied with a pleased smile after letting her tit go, "Don't tell me you only care about your own pleasure."

Horrified she had offended the Bijuu she quickly replied, "No... I'm sorry you are..."

Yoruichi laughed as she said, "Oh you're so easy to tease. Don't worry, I'll give you all the pleasure you want and then some."

"Oh fuc..." the woman moaned as Yoruichi removed her thigh and buried two fingers inside the kunoichi. She quickly began working them in and out causing Soifon to clutch at the grass while Yoruichi sucked on her collarbone. Soifon was in heaven as Yoruichi pumped her fingers rapidly. She began twisting them as well causing Soifon to gasp as she began rocking her hips unable to remain still. Her hands sought out Yoruichi's face and pulling it close to hers as she leaned up, she panted, "L...Lady...Yoruichi, I...I'm so close."

"Then cum," Yoruichi said burying her fingers inside. She then began petting along the roof around the same area that always drove her wild when Naruto's cock ran over it within her. Soifon as if obeying her command tensed before screaming out as she coated Yoruichi's hand and arm in her cream. She panted glassy eyed, but still registered Yoruichi removing her fingers before she licked up her arm like a cat cleaning itself. She felt like a mouse as the Bijuu leveled a hungry gaze on her as she said, "You taste so sweet. I'm going to gobble you all up."

Soifon proved she could be a predator as well as she suddenly sprung forward and tackled the other woman to the ground. Staring down at the woman adoringly she said, "I think it's time that the shoe was on the other foot, Lady Yoruichi."

"My how aggressive," the dark-skinned woman said with a smirk, "I think I like this side of you. But if that is what you want then by all means, take charge."

Soifon nodded and leaned down kissing the Bijuu tenderly despite the bold stance she had taken. She tasted herself on the woman's tongue, and finding it quite pleasant readily sucked on Yoruichi's fingers when she was offered them after the kiss ended. Cleaning them for the woman, she found her desire to know what Yoruichi's taste was had become overpowering so starting at her chest began kissing down the dark skinned woman's body. Reaching her shaved mound she ran two fingers against the woman's slit. Yoruichi's moan was music to her ears, and she found her scent intoxicating. Glad to see the Bijuu had grown rather wet as she had toyed with her, Soifon started by licking her cream from the dark-skinned woman's thighs. Yoruichi began to wave her hips about hoping to entice Soifon info focusing on her quim. Yet, she resisted as she wanted to draw out the encounter and to tease the woman in turn.

However, her resistance crumbled as Yoruichi pleaded, "Hurry Soifon. I'm so horny. I need you."

Hearing such words was too much for the woman so she quickly set about to bring Yoruichi the relief that she had asked for. Soon though, it simply became a byproduct of her need to drink down the honey that was being provided as a result of her efforts. Soifon reached up towards Yoruichi with both hands while her mouth remained clamped to the woman's lower lips. The Bijuu interlocked her fingers with the kunoichi's as she began grinding her muff against Soifon's face as the woman's tongue drove her wild.

She let out a scream and pushed her hips up as she coated Soifon's chin in her essence while the woman continued to suck on her clit which had set her off. Soifon made sure to lick up every trace of Yoruichi's essence that coated the dark-skinned woman's body before climbing up it. Yoruichi wrapped her arms around her causing Soifon to melt into her warmth.

Soifon felt like falling asleep but her eyes shot open as Yoruichi rolled her so that she was on the bottom again. The Bijuu smiled down at her before stating, "I guess it's my turn to lead again." She then pulled Soifon's hips up and folded her nearly in half before beginning to lick the petite woman's pussy. Soon the clearing filled with Soifon's cries, which weren't the only ones.

*****************************

Yugito came back to earth as she leaned against a tree breathing heavily. She looked down contently at the man kneeling before her and whose mouth had just sent her into orbit. She then said upon hearing Soifon's moans picking up again, "Not to be a buzzkill, especially since I'm sure they just heard me all the way back in Kumo. But, don't you think we're getting a little loud?"

Naruto stood up and despite her words; she pulled him into a kiss. She moaned from his beginning to gently fondle her breast as he pulled his mouth from hers to say, "Don't worry. I placed a privacy barrier around the area. I know I asked you to come along to help explain things should she have panicked at Yoruichi's Bijuu form, but it could still be problematic for you if rumors of you going full Tailed Beast Mode started spreading."

Yugito nodded as she said, "Yeah, the Raikage would have a fit. He'd probably exile me to the Island Turtle along with Bee and Aisha."

Naruto smiled and caused her to moan as he said, "We couldn't have that. It's been too long since I've had my sexy kitten to myself."

"Don't you think it's the other way around," Yugito replied while smiling as she slipped from between him and the tree. She moved several feet away before dropping to all four and giving him a smoldering look of lust added, "Now let's not waste any more time because your kitten wants your cock buried deep inside her ass."

Naruto smiled and crouched behind her. Gripping her hips, he enjoyed the way she cried out as he buried his dick inside her pussy. He got his dick slick with her juices before pulling out and pressed it against her anus. He pressed against it firmly waiting until the head slipped past, before jamming his dick inside her butt to the hilt. He quickly began pounding away since Yugito had really taken to having her ass fucked since having her anal cherry popped. As such it wasn't long before she was throwing herself back against him to meet his thrusts.

Naruto eventually decided to let her take the lead so buried his rod inside her, before falling back on the ground and pulling her with. Yugito didn't hesitate as she quickly began bouncing on his dick as soon as her knees touched the ground. Naruto met her downwards thrusts as he kept his grip on her hips. He groaned as Yugito reached down and began cradling his sperm laden balls.

"Shit, if you keep that up..."

"Go on," Yugito said, "Cum for me. Pour your hot cream into my ass."

Naruto did as instructed burying his rod deep inside her. Yugito let out a loud cry as she fell back so that her back rested against Naruto's chest. Her cry was cut off as Naruto turned her face towards him and sealed his mouth over hers. Their mouths separated as they panted for air in the aftermath of their climaxes. Naruto heard Soifon cry out again likely signaling she had just received another climax of her own.

Yugito giggled as Naruto said, "Sounds like a cat just sent a little mouse off to heaven."

"Well, I'll be sure to send her your regards after the fox sends this kitten to the same place again."

Able to take a hint, Naruto rolled her so that she was on her stomach and began slowly pumping his manhood into her ass again. Yugito moaned in delight as he slipped through her rear passage easier than before due to his cum which coated her insides. Soon her cries once more joined

*****************************

Tier was sitting in the study of the mansion that housed the other Bijuu and her. Since becoming Naruto's lover she had stopped thinking of it as Kiyomi's mansion as it had truly begun to feel like a home to her. This included the room that she had secluded herself in more and more often as of late when not performing missions for the Great Tree Shipping Company, which was the study. To her surprise, Kiyomi had not seemed to mind having her territory encroached upon. She supposed that was just one of the many changes that she had noted in her sibling which she attributed to the man they now shared.

In the past, despite both of them being the more studious of the Bijuu, it hadn't exactly translated into a close bond between them. She had attributed it to both of them competing for the Sage's affections. The Sage had not played favorites for the most part, at least among the Bijuu, and hadn't with his children at least until the end when he had chosen his second born over his eldest. Also, although both she and Kiyomi had been rather academic in nature, they had diverged in what had interested them. Kiyomi had always been interested in the more practical arts such as creating Seals and jutsu. Yet, Tier had always enjoyed the philosophical side of such things. Where Kiyomi might have created a jutsu that could destroy a village, for Tier the more important matter to discuss was should it be created.

She suspected the Sage was of the same mind in most things, which was why he had not passed on the knowledge of how to create jinchuriki. For Tier, it had been rather shocking to learn that the woman that had unlocked that ability for mankind, Mito Uzumaki, was also among the women tied to Naruto. Tier had enjoyed more than one debate with the Uzumaki about whether she regretted providing the keys to the ability to the various villages through the seals she had used to seal the Bijuu in various items. Tier had argued that by giving the shinobi the secret of creating Jinchuriki, she had doomed her husband's dream of peaceful existence between shinobi. Mito had countered that her husband's dream had failed the moment the other shinobi villages had come into being. If she did have a regret, it was that she had not considered that the Bijuu had been sentient beings until after she had sealed Kiyomi inside her. But she did believe that the balance attained with the jinchuriki had prevented the wars from growing too out of control. This was because the jinchuriki had proved to have been doubled edge swords, as likely to destroy the hand that used them, as the enemies they had been pointed at. That notion had intrigued Tier as she was forced to admit, on more than one occasion things had gone against Iwa because she had broken free long enough to take over her host and hadn't cared who she had destroyed along the way.

Yet, she had asked how Mito could believe in Naruto since his dream mirrored her husband's. Mito had responded that Naruto's dream wouldn't have had a chance of succeeding if Hashirama's hadn't failed. Hashirama had wanted to create a single village, which would in essence expose a single belief, The Will of Fire. Which while on the surface wasn't a bad thing, but the fact that other villages had formed around different beliefs proved that other strong willed individuals weren't in a hurry to sign up with having their beliefs consumed by Hashirama's. For example, the Will of Stone that grew out of Iwagakure. Yet, what Naruto was exposing wasn't having the differences in viewpoints silenced to fit a single belief system. He wasn't even trying to combine them, but was hoping to find a way so that they could coexist. After all, there was good and bad in all of the different beliefs. Even the Will of Fire for all the good it represented, had also directly led to the destruction of the Uchiha. It might have been an extreme view of it, but nonetheless the belief that the good of the Village was enough reason to justify butchering an entire clan was in essence a logical conclusion one could reach from it.

Mito believed that while Hashirama's dream might have failed in its main objective. That failure created the conditions where Naruto could succeed. It achieved this because before the founding of Konoha each clan had its own way of operating. So there had been hundreds if not thousands of individual beliefs to try and unite. The founding of the Shinobi Villages had condensed those voices down to the five major villages, and numerous smaller ones. Villages which Naruto's plans for of peaceful coexistence could be planted and grow as the they began to work together in much the same way the clans that had grudges with each other had set them aside to work together in the villages which had been founded.

It revealed to Tier that while it didn't lessen her belief that Naruto was special, it did show that he wasn't so much reinventing the system, as building on its successes while trying to cut away the portions that had failed. But, with that thought she realized that there were also forces working in the opposite direction as them. She suspected that one of them had been subtly influencing the Uchiha for generations, if not Indra himself. She based her belief on what had been recorded when Kakashi, Mikoto, and Sage had read the monument that the Uchiha had safeguarded.

She looked up from the papers which contained the various writings they had seen and recorded with the Sharingan and Rinnegan as someone entered the study. She wasn't surprised that it was Cyan as unlike the other women that had been given life through the tails that she had sacrificed; she tended to be the most levelheaded. Although, she did use it at times to egg the other two on.

"Lady Tier," she said politely and demurely.

Tier sighed as she had not planned for the women to act in the master/servant manner that they seemed to prefer. A part of her had considered requesting that they stop, but she felt it might be better if they reached a point where they believed themselves to be her equal on their own. She suspected that Cyan might be about to start down such a path, particularly as she was sure her relationship with Naruto was on the woman's mind.

Cyan stepped before the desk she was sitting behind and looking at the papers laid out over it asked, "What is are you researching?"

"Not so much researching," Tier answered, "Simply pondering about the differing tones recorded on the Uchiha monument."

"Differing tones," Cyan said with a note of curiosity and confusion. "I don't understand. Was it not written by the Sage of the Six Paths? Should he not have been the only capable of reading all of it and thus have written it?"

"That is a logical conclusion one could reach at least before unlocking the Rinnegan," Tier replied. Seeing the confusion written on the woman's face she explained, "According to Mikoto when she read the monument with her regular Sharingan it detailed how unlock the Mangekyō Sharingan. When Kakashi read it, he was able to learn how to unlock the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, and it began to detail how something called the Infinite Tsukuyomi was the key to the Uchiha's salvation. The common thread between each unlocking method seemed to require a person to commit an act of betrayal. To unlock the Mangekyō it required a person to sacrifice a person they cared for. Kakashi was able to confirm that the key to unlocking the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan required a person to steal the eyes of a person that also had unlocked it. This supposedly removed the weaknesses that one encountered from using the abilities bestowed by the Mangekyō Sharingan."

"I'm not sure what you mean about tone though," Cyan said sounding disappointed in herself for not seeing what Tier was explaining. "The tone seems rather consistent considering what was required to unlock each evolution of the Uchiha's eye techniques."

"True, if one stopped reading the Monument after only unlocking the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan," Tier stated. "But, one with Rinnegan not only saw all the previous steps but a final writing was unlocked, but it sounded like the last thing father wanted was one to unlock the Rinnegan unless it was to protect those closest to you. He says that the Ten-tails most not be awakened no matter the reason as it would guarantee the doom of the world. This would seem to imply the Infinite Tsukuyomi must not be attempted either since a key component to it was to become the jinchuriki of the ten-tails."

"I see," Cyan said, "That does seem rather strange, especially when one considers that if the Rinnegan is unlocked then the ruse would be discovered."

"A ruse," Tier said surprised, "What makes you think of the first writings like that?"

"Well it does seem rather... um... clear that either one tone or the other would be a lie," Cyan said hesitantly as she obviously didn't want to offend the woman she saw as being superior to her.

Tier sighed before stating, "Cyan, do not hesitate to speak you mind or be concerned you will offend me. What may be clear to you might not be so for me. We are equals even if you seem to believe you are inferior to me."

"Lady Tier," Cyan said surprised and was about to point out how she was indeed greater than her. However, she trailed off as Tier gave her a stern look. Wishing she had kept her mouth shut she sighed but then explained, "Well I believe the mistake you are making is that you seem to be operating under the belief that there is only one author of the monument who changed his mind towards the end. But what if there were two?"

"Impossible," Tier said quickly, "My father created it, and only he would be capable of..."

Cyan interrupted the blonde Bijuu as she said, "Lady Tier, you just stated that we were equals and as such I shouldn't assume anything in regards to your infallibility. Are you not making the same mistake?"

Tier could see what Cyan meant as she had been rather quick to reject the idea that someone else could equal her father. Yet, she had to admit that with the blinders removed in regards to her father's abilities, she could see how Cyan arrived to her theory. Focusing on the woman she asked, "I'm guessing that you believe this second author could only modify the monument up until the Rinnegan would be required to read it."

Cyan nodded, "Precisely. It might be that whoever left the instructions on how to unlock the various stages of the Sharingan did so in order to guide the Uchiha into awakening the Ten-Tails. How exactly was one supposed to awaken the Rinnegan?"

"The instructions were less clear in that regard," Tier said finding the paper that Sage had written on the matter due to her being able to see writings that became visible with the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. She handed it to Cyan, who began to scan it over.

After several moments the woman looked up stating, "It would seem your author was less sure about this method. He worded it the same, but it doesn't have the same definitiveness as the other methods." She then repeated what was written, "The Eyes required to awaken the Ten-Tails can only be attained by uniting the eyes and body of the Six Path Sage." Looking at the woman that had sacrificed several tails to give her and the others life she said, "It is as if when the monument was modified the author had a theory, but was unsure if it would actually work."

"It does seem that way," Tier said accepting the paper back. "But as you say, the ruse would be discovered once the Rinnegan was unlocked."

"Perhaps the author didn't care," Cyan suggested, "It could be he was certain that by that point the person awakening it would be so power mad that they wouldn't even need to consult the monument further. It seems all the steps required to awaken the Ten-Tails were laid out in the earlier steps. It could also be the person that left these false ways to awaken the evolved forms of the Sharingan was only concerned about selling the lie in their own time. We might just be finding ourselves dancing to a tune of a person that is long dead."

Tier wasn't sure of that since for a person to leave the monument lying around, it meant they expected someone to follow the plan they laid out. Furthermore, rather than awakening the Sharingan the true purpose of the changes made to the monument seemed to guide a Uchiha into awakening the Ten-Tails. She felt that the only reason it had even pointed to how to awaken the Rinnegan was to complete that task. She wondered how the person that had modified it would react had the Uchiha reading it only been interested in awakening the power for their own ends. Something told her, the author would not be pleased. This also led her to wonder what such a person would have done to Uchiha that had awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan without following the steps the monument prescribed. She began to wonder if perhaps the Uchiha that had awakened the evolved Sharingan around the time that Konoha was founded might not have been eliminated because they hadn't followed the mystery author's script. She knew it might be difficult to find out if there had been a conspiracy against the Uchiha who had unlocked the Mangekyō Sharingan, but felt doing so would be worth the effort.

She sat back down at the desk in order to search through any of the records that Kiyomi had gathered, but stopped as Cyan asked, "Lady Tier, about your relationship with that man..."

Cyan again trailed off likely afraid of angering Tier since Appaci's threat towards Naruto had resulted in one of the few times any of the women that followed her had seen her lose her patience. Tier sat back in the chair and folded her hand in her lap as she asked, "What about it?"

"I just wish to understand why," Cyan said sounding exasperated. "You are a Bijuu, and deserve a person dedicated solely to you. Not some human with more lovers than there are stars. It can't have escaped your notice how other humans view you as attractive. You could have any man you desired."

"I do have the one that I desire," Tier replied in her typical calm tone. "I have seen the looks of lust my current form has created in others. Just as I've seen the looks of fear that humans wore when they gazed upon me in my Bijuu form. Naruto is aware of both and do you know how he treats me."

"As a receptacle for his lusts," Cyan said sounding disgusted at the thought.

"At times, but then again I use him for the same purpose," Tier said causing Cyan to stare at her in shock. A rare smile appeared on Tier's face although her jacket's collar hid it, "It does stand to reason since sex is an activity that requires at least two people. Or do you only attribute Naruto as having such desires while I lack them?"

"I... I suppose I..."

"Thought I was above it all," Tier said standing and came around from behind the desk. "Tell me Cyan, do you see me as being above the humans?"

"Yes, of course!"

"But you see yourself as being below me?"

"Naturally, as you gave me and the others life through your sacrifice," Cyan said reverently.

"Did it you ever consider that I do not require being placed on a pedestal?" She could see her words caught Cyan by surprise so she continued, "Naruto, is truly one of the few people that has seen me for me. He accepts me as a Bijuu, and as a woman. He doesn't project his belief of how I should act because I'm a Bijuu onto me. He accepts me for who I am."

"But what of your other sibling Kukaku and Mira, does he not project his desire onto them by rejecting them?"

Tier shook her head before responding, "He is under no obligation to return Mira's affections, and his recent coldness towards Kukaku was born of her disregard for the lives of his comrades. He made no move to change her other than to avoid her. If that causes her to change, then perhaps it will be because deep down she knows her attitude is wrong. Yet, she is free to believe what she wants, and he accepts that." The blonde woman stepped before Cyan as she added, "I suppose what I ultimately appreciate about Naruto is that he accepts me as simply Tier Harribel. Perhaps rather than being worried about hierarchies. You should take the time to see how you fit into this world not as a being born of my sacrificed tails, but as Cyan Sung-Sun."

"Lady Tier, my place is behind yours as I am your servant."

Tier sighed before replying, "Yet, what I truly would have desired is for you to stand beside me as an equal." The blonde Bijuu turned to return to the desk to begin her research leaving Cyan stunned. She found it hard to imagine herself in such a position since the thought had never occurred to her. But now that it had, she found the idea of being accepted as Tier's equal rather hard to dismiss. Grabbing a book from the desk, she retreated to a large backed chair to begin reading it in order to see if there was something she could find that had perhaps escaped Tier or Kiyomi's attention. After all, they were only human.

*****************************

The doorbell to the mansion rang in the early morning hour causing Nel to run towards the door as she was one of the few occupants currently home. Tier and Cyan had spent the night studying in Kiyomi's study, while the other women were out on various missions or tasks. Mira and her had been eating breakfast when the buzzer had gone off, prompting the Six-Tailed Bijuu to tell Nel to answer it. Despite the snarky way her sibling had told her to, Nel had been all too happy to comply because Naruto was due back soon and he often brought her gifts. And while he rarely used the door, he did at times make games of leaving them around the house for her to find.

Opening the door she was disappointed when it wasn't her favorite blond, but a man wearing a strange uniform, cap, and goggles. He introduced himself stating, "Hi, I'm Courier Ninja five-ninety-six dash zero-three. I have a delivery for the Lady of the house."

"Nel's a lady, mister," the diminutive Bijuu said.

The man chuckled as he pulled a cloth wrapped item from his pouch as he explained, "Yes, but you see I have to deliver this item to the... huh." The Courier Ninja wasn't sure what exactly happened as one moment he was holding his delivery and the next it was in the small girl's hands. "Now see here a moment, I have to delivery that directly to..."

"Bye mister," Nel said slamming the door in his face as he tried to step into the mansion to take it back. He was sent flying by the force of the door, landing several feet away.

Nel excitedly looked the clothed item over thinking it to be a gift from Naruto before pulling the wrapping away to reveal a stone tablet covered in ancient writing. It seemed newer than the other tablet that Nel had scene everyone fussing over, particularly since it wasn't covered in pictures like the other was. Nel noticed an envelope that had fallen to the floor. Opening it, she started to read, "To Kiyomi, I managed to secure this tablet from... blah, blah, blah." The words began to bleed together for her as she quickly lost interest since it apparently wasn't a gift from Naruto, especially as it was signed by a Jade Chan.

Nel frowned, but then decided to do some coloring like she had seen Shiho do since she was sure her sister would call the bespectacled woman over to discuss the tablet like they had the previous one. Carrying it off to her room she wondered when Naruto would return as she really missed having him around.

*****************************

Four figures watched as the Courier Ninja they had been tracking left Konoha village and was grumbling to himself. The lone female among them said, "It looks like we arrived too late."

"No matter," the group's leader replied, "We know who the recipient is. We'll simply have to kill her along with anyone that gets in our way."

"What do you mean we," a large dark-skinned man with white hair replied, "You're going to remain in the shadows while we take all the risks."

The leader smiled before replying, "Only because it would cause me trouble should members of my flock learn of my going on a rampage within the Leaf Village. That is a task better suited to missing-nin such as you three."

The youngest of the three replied, "We shouldn't fight guys. We are the Four Heavenly Kings of the Moon Goddess after all. Let's get along."

The large man let the matter drop since he found it hard to remain angry when his companion used his innocent act on them. Although, he knew when the time came the youth was as violent as the rest of them. Looking at the Leaf Village he asked, "Should we wait until dark?"

'Where's the fun in that," the woman said eagerly, "It'll be easy to get inside and then after we destroy the Tablet of Hyuuga we can kill our way out."

"Have fun," the leader said turning away as his companions all wore the same murderous smiles.
