It's been two years since the forth Shinobi war, everything changes a lot. Ruka Sarutobi, the girl who altered the balance of the world are now just the girl who lives her life as a normal shinobi.

Ruka stood tall as she walked around the village, smiling over the villagers who is busy gushing over her, her popularity has always been high but they were gushing over her the fact that she's one of the Hero of Konoha.

Ruka stops walking when she looked at the new face that has been carved on the Hokage rock, Kakashi became the next hokage not too long ago after the fourth Shinobi war.

"Things has changed." Ruka whispered as she thought about her friends, Sakura became the strongest medical nin in the shinobi world with her running the Konoha hospital and child rehabilitation and right now, Ruka would the one admiring her best friend.

Naruto became the newly celebrity in Konoha even though, he didn't become a jonin, on the days that he didn't have any missions, Naruto would teach at the academy.

Sasuke, she hasn't heard from him for a quite while, he would usually sent her letters to keep her updated outside of Konoha but Ruka knew that he's doing his best to have the redemption.

Sai, he became the Chief for Konoha Anbu and during joining missions with him, Ruka felt suited to work with him due to their personality.

The rest of her friends were also rise up, Shikamaru became the Hokage advisor just like his father, Ino became the leader for sensory division and also medical nin, the rest were still active Shinobi.

Once she reached the location that she was walking towards too, Ruka closes her eyes as the wind blows "I've changed too." she whispered. Ruka taking over Shikaku's position, Jonin commander with her leading the Sarutobi Clan at the same time and also one in a while she's the Diplomaticc Liason of Konoha.

"Yoohoo! Ruka!" The familiar voice rang out through the bustling village streets, drawing Ruka's attention. She turned around to see her boyfriend, Kiba, running towards her with his loyal companion, Akamaru, bounding happily beside him. His face was lit up with a wide grin, and there was a sparkle of excitement in his eyes.

"Sorry that I'm late! Kotaro-san didn't let go of me easily after training," Kiba exclaimed breathlessly as he finally reached Ruka's side. Despite his apology, there was an undeniable eagerness in his tone, as if he couldn't wait to spend time with her.

Ruka's heart swelled with warmth at the sight of Kiba's infectious enthusiasm. She couldn't help but smile back at him, feeling a rush of affection for the man who had captured her heart. Over the past two years, their bond had only grown stronger, and she found herself falling even deeper in love with him with each passing day.

As they stood there together, surrounded by the bustling activity of the village, Ruka couldn't help but marvel at how handsome Kiba looked. His hair had grown longer and less messy, framing his rugged features perfectly. A proud goatee adorned his chin, adding to his charm and making Ruka's heart flutter with admiration.

Despite his rugged appearance, there was a gentleness in Kiba's eyes as he looked at Ruka, a softness that melted her heart every time. In that moment, surrounded by the sights and sounds of their beloved village, Ruka felt a deep sense of gratitude for the man by her side.

"It's okay, I've just arrived," Ruka replied, her voice filled with affection as she gazed into Kiba's eyes. She then knelt down to greet Akamaru, who wagged his tail enthusiastically, his tongue lolling out in a canine grin.

"Come on, let's eat. I've brought bento for us," Ruka said, her smile brightening as she held up a beautifully crafted bento box. Each delicately arranged dish was a testament to her love and care for Kiba, a gesture of her affection for the man who had stolen her heart.

Kiba's eyes lit up with delight at the sight of the bento box, and he eagerly took Ruka's hand as they set off together towards a quiet spot to enjoy their meal. As they walked, their laughter echoed through the village streets, a joyful melody that filled the air with warmth and happiness.
