-Shukaku

It's been weeks since Naruto and Sasuke had suddenly disappeared. They were back in their regular lives as Foxy and Kitty... but something didn't feel right.
It didn't feel right knowing they just left each other like that. There was some sort of pit in their stomachs anytime something that reminded them of each other came up.
Foxy had even stopped calling Kitty 'Kitty cat' and Kitty had stopped calling Foxy 'Baby pup'.
It was just so weird without the other... and all they wanted was to see the other again.

Kitty sighed before appearing in front of Tsunade who was still taking on the rule of Hokage. Tsunade looked with a questionable expression.

"I gave you the day off." "Where's Uzumaki Naruto being stationed?"

Tsunade straightened. She hadn't expected either of them to ask where the other was. Foxy and Kitty seemed professional from their records.. but was this a time one of them let their guard down around their mission?

"I'm sorry I can't-" "He's a Chunin, you can give me the information." "Sasuke you can't hang onto a mission, it's unprofessional and distracting." "I only want to know how he's doing."
Tsunade frowned and sighed. "He's currently doing C rank missions. Naruto seems better than the fun-" "I want to see if he's alright. I don't want some report." "I'm the hokage for right now Sasuke, you obey my orders or I'll have that Anbu mark burned and will take your mask. If you continue down this road your career will be ruined and I will make you an actual Chunin."
Sasuke clenched his fists and lowered his head.
"Do you want that because I will call Foxy."
"... no.. no I don't want that."
"Than I advice you to stop worrying about Naruto and live your life as it has been."
".. yes hokage-sama."

He vanished in black mist and Tsunade sighed. She slouched in her chair as Naruto appeared in front of her.

"I think I have a problem."
