Naruto stepped into the village and took a deep breath. He turned to look at the man fallowing behind. "I see you kept up."
Naruto smiled brightly, "We're almost there. That building right there," Naruto pointed to the largest building in the town, "That's where we're heading."
Naruto turned back around and began weaving around the villagers walking down the street. He waved hello to afew, and smiled at many others. He periodically glance back to make sure the silver haired man was still there, and to make sure that he wasnt up to anything.
'I'm too worried...' Naruto thought to himself with a smile.

While Naruto was managing to weave through the villagers, Sho almost had to chove himself through, bumping, sliding, and jumping wherever he could. He left more than just a few people weary eyed and cursing. The silver haired shinobi still managed to keep up with Naruto, despite the evil crowd.
At least he had gotten his souveniers earlier, thankfully.

Naruto stopped at the gate of the manor and looked back to see the man struggling to keep up. "Welcome to the Hokage mannor Sho."
Naruto motioned to the large building. "Now what is it that you wanted to ask?"
Naruto crossed his arms and waited for the man's answer.

The silver haired shinobi gaped at the gigantic mansion. Close up, it was the second biggest thing he had ever saw, but that wasn't why his mouth was open in amazement. The gaurds and ninjas around the structure, patrolling, talking. . .
It was the most military personal he had ever seen in one location, including all the other villages he had been too. It wasn't an exageration that leaf was the biggest village of the year, because it simply was. It was also a problem if he ever wanted to make it out of the village alive. He mentally categorized every gaurd he saw on a threat scale.
Naruto broke the ninja out of his little mental processes. He smiled apologetically and ran a hand through his perfect hair. "Sorry. It's really amazing. Where is the hokage?" Sho asked, apparently confused that all these people would be here without anybody to gaurd.

Naruto looked at the man confused, "Obviously you don't understand..."
Naruto smiled at one of the gaurds walking by and turned his gaze back to Sho, "... I'm the Hokage."
Naruto smirked childishly, he hadn't had so much fun fooling people since he was in the ninja academy. "Now what is it you wanted to ask?"
Naruto grew bored with the man and began to watch the passerbys. Waveing and smileing at the people he knew, and nodding to the people he didn't. naruto smiled to himself and brought his gaze back to the man. "So?"

Sho jaw dropped, and stayed like that until Naruto said "so". The silver haired shinobi's mouth slowly closed, and was followed by deep laughter. It was so ironic. He had been staring the solution in the face the entire time, and It was so unbleivable and crazy that it had to be true.
When Sho stopped laughing, he ran his hand through his hair, smirking all the while. "If I didn't hear you say that, I would have never beleiver it!" Sho then Sighed, trying to stop himself from bursting out laughing again. "Might as well tell you why I'm here then. I'm looking for someone called a jinchurriki. At least that's what I've been told." Sho replied to Naruto.

Naruto growled as the man laughed. He sighed and waited for the man to stop. Naruto scratched his head, and continued to gaze at the man.
He listened to the man's question and he began to glare at the man.
"See, everyone you'll ever know, only cares about me." Kyuubi said.
Naruto crossed his arms, "There may still be one in the village, but as Hokage I need to know why you need that person."
"Again, he's right infront of who he's looking for." Naruto laughed to himself.

SHo smiled and walked up to Naruto with a mischeivious grin plastering his face. "Well, you see. These Jinjurriki are supposed to have a speical power, one that isn't exactly normal. Because of this, they are shunned, and rarely do they manage to completely control it. You see, this power comes from a dangerous source. A demon, I beleive. Very dangerous, but such a problem isn't impossible to fix!" Sho explained while brushing a hand through hsi silvery hair.
His cloak swirled around him, sending up dust as he turned around to face the city. "And I think I can get rid of the little problem for you." Sho turned back around raising his shoulders in a shrug. "What say you?"

"Fix?" Naruto gave the man a questionable look.
"He lies Naruto, he can't fix whats not broken..." the kyuubi had a smug sound.
"How exactly would you be 'fixing' this persons problem?" Naruto focused on the man, he stepped away from him and gave himself more room to think.
Naruto crossed his arms and thought about what it would be like without the Kyuubi. The more he thought the more he refused to give it up. The kyuubi may be a risk to his life, but how could he face Sasuke in the next life if he abandoned what made him, him. no matter what, he decided, he would not give up the kyuubi.
Naruto growled to himself, the kyuubi's anger seeping over into his conscience, "No..."

Sho looked at the sky, searching for that answer. Where indeed? Where indeed? I guess I will tell him then. Sho mumbled to himself inside his mind. "It's hard to explain. I don't have all the details actually. Removing the problem would be a way of fixing it, I suppose, but where would I put it?" The silver haired shinobi said mostly to himself. He brushed a hand through his hair. It would have been so easier if one of the others had met with Naruto, but it was just him, Sho Masamune.
Then he heard Naruto's flat out refusal. He understood the Hokage part, but what about the container. . . Oh. . . never mind. Sho finnaly realized who the jinchurriki was, and his eyes widened as he uttered, "And why not?"

"Did you ever think of the possiblity that they don't want what they were give taken away?" Naruto glared at the man.
Naruto could feel laughter inside of him, not his own he knew, but the Kyuubi's. Naruto took a deep breath, "Maybe it makes them stronger. Maybe it pushes them to be better, maybe.... " Naruto paused, "... it's something that makes them complete."
"Sho you'll never know how it feels, and I never want anyone or anything to know the loneliness I and the other 8 jinchurriki's have felt. This is my problem, that I will deal with, I won't let anyone to have to deal with my problems." Naruto smiled.

Sho frowned at Naruto. "You sound like I want to know what it felt like." He replied sounding stange. His frown slowly transformed into a humored smile. He crossed his arms, smiling at something that he saw was funny.
"It's too bad the other eight are dead. Whether they were killed by freind or foe." Sho said humorously. He smile widened into a grin, that seemed to border on maniacal. "It's not for your sake anyway. The demon inside you is the one I wished to speak too, but it looks like he wouldn't listen to having more freedom either." Sho chuckled to himself, taking out a kunai knife. It was just as battered as the others. "It isn't much of a problem anyway. Takeda doesn't actually need your compliance to release the demon." Sho finished, raising the blade into the air as if to throw it.

Naruto watched as the man raised his sword, Idiot..."
As he mocked the man gaurds appeared at his sides, and prepared for attack. "Not that I wouldn't love fighitng you, but I have to say that you don't quite have the upper hand."
Naruto smiled and placed two of his fingers from each hand in a cross form. Smoke formed around all them and thousands of kage bushin's appeared.
"If I figure right... Naruto counted his fingers, "Your just slighty out numbered."

The silver haired shinobi sblack personed. "Yes, it does look like you have the upper hand. Yes, I do seem to be outnumbered, but you don't seem to understand that Takeda forsaw these problems. Ahead of time." The man chuckled, eyeing the clones specutively. The blade reversed in his hand, and descended with lightning fast reflexes. Before anybody could do anything, Sho had stabbed himself. He smiled at Naruto, and the guards. "See you around" He cried out. Then, there was a poof of smoke, and the shinobi was gone, simply gone. The only thing that remained was the battered kunai knife.

Naruto watch confused as the man disappeared, "Takeda...?"
The guards dispersed and soon Naruto stood by himself. Nruto shook his head walked to his office.
