Chapter 41: CH 41
Gaara kept his eyes on Naruto, "You are a very strange person Naruto Uzumaki." Naruto grinned foxily at him, "Well I don't think you can talk, calling me strange. You look like you want to say something though."
Gaara's eyes turned back ahead as he broke eye contact with Naruto, "It is nothing Uzumaki."
Naruto didn't believe him but let it slide as he kept his group jumping through the trees, "If nothing else we should reach near the border before it gets too dark to proceed any further." A group of nods and his focus was on their direction.

As the day winded to a close in Konohagakure, Tsunade was still at her desk, going through the most unnecessary necessity the every kage was stuck doing, of course I'm talking about paperwork. A knock at her door soon revealed Shizune, "Tsunade-sama, Kakashi is here to see you."
Tsunade sighed, "Send him in." She flexed her wrist and hissed, "Damn brat dragging me back here... I bet he just wanted to punish me with all of this writing on so many of these useless forms to cramp my wrist so I can't hit him anymore. Honestly, shouldn't I have an entire team of secretaries to handle all of the mundane crap? I am the Hokage after all."
Shizune blinked, 'Note to self, find out if I actually should be looking for secretaries for things like that.' A yell of her name from Tsunade brought the black-haired girl back to earth, "Oh, um, I'm sending Kakashi in now okay?"
