TwentyFive: the hokage's announcement

Author's Notes: this is told either through Naruto's, Kurama's, Takaryu's, and Sasuke's point of view. This story is a Sasu/Naru YAOI (boyxboy love) so don't read if you aren't into those kind of things. I do not own Naruto and/or its characters as they are owned by Masashi Kishimoto. I have gotten this the idea while reading several other familiar fanfiction stories in which Naruto loses his sight so, this is my version of what I think would happen. The only characters that I claim to own is the OCC villain "Hitan Kiasho", the demon fox "Yohko", and Sasuke's inner demon "Takaryu" along with all their powers and abilities. Please feel free to leave your comments and reviews telling me what you think as I look forward to reading them.

TwentyFive: the hokage's announcement
NARUTO'S P.O.V.

Winter had finally passed.  Spring was finally here as Sasuke and I began to make plans for our wedding.  A part of me wished that the village didn't look down at me and accepted me.  No one besides those who we trusted knew that Sasuke and I were gay.  I wondered at times how the villagers and the fan girls would react to when they learn that their idol Sasuke is gay.  We already knew that the fan girls would be totally devastated.  Often I began to wonder if there was any home to save Sakura.  We haven't paid her a visit since I had shown her memories of my past and what I have been through.

One day everyone in the village was summoned to the hokage's tower.  It seemed that Tsunade was going to make several announcements.  Sasuke and I knew that one of them was concerning Kakashi becoming the sixth hokage.  Sasuke and I often teased him about it.  But in the long run we both knew that Kakashi would make a great hokage.  Both Sasuke and I prepared to leave the house to head towards the tower.
"Should we bring Yohko?" Sasuke asked.
~Can I stay home please?  I don't want to be around all those people whom hate and fear both my master and father.~ Yohko asked me.
"You don't have to come Yohko." I told the fox.  Yohko jumped up on me knocking me to the ground as I earned licks of affection from the three tailed fox.
~Thank you......  Thank you......  Master!~  I couldn't help but to giggle at the fox. 
*Ok Yohko that's enough.  We have to get going.* Kurama commanded.  Yohko got off of me as I looked up at Sasuke to see him smirking.  I could tell that he was holding back his laughter as he helped me back up to my feet.  I quickly stuck my tongue out at Sasuke once I was on my feet as I headed out the door.  I could hear Sasuke laughing as he followed behind me.  I couldn't help but to smile as I ran on ahead forcing Sasuke to case after me for a change.

SASUKE'S P.O.V.

I finally caught Naruto hooking my arm through his as we held hands.  We both ignored the hate filled glances we got.  When we approached the hokage's tower, we could see that there was a huge turnout.  Naruto and I found a spot where we could see and hear everything.  Once everyone was gathered, Tsunade took to the roof of the hokage building.
"Thank you for all coming!" Tsunade stated loud and clear once everyone had quieted down.  "I have several announcements to make.  First is the announcement of the sixth hokage....... Kakashi Hatakte!"  Kakashi took the stage wearing a hokage robe that read "Rokudaime" or the sixth fire shadow.  Loud cheers arouse all around.  None louder than Naruto's.  Kakashi gave a light wave before stepping back.  Tsunade held her hand up causing everyone to quiet down.  "My next announcement is concerning a great injustice that I have seen and allowed to go unpunished.  This person has sacrificed much for this village as we have failed to acknowledge him for the hero that he is."  The villagers began to talk whispering amongst themselves.

Once again Tsunade held her hand up to quiet everyone down.
"This person held two S-Ranked secrets that were only known to a select few.  But I felt that it was time for us as a village to recognize this young man and everything that he has done for this village by allowing the truth about this young man's sacrifices come to light." stated Tsunade.  I kind of figured out where this was going.  I looked over at Naruto whom looked visibly pale.  I grabbed his hand squeezing it gently in comfort. 
*It's alright Naruto.  I trust that Lady Tsunade has a reason for announcing this.* I told him telepathically.
*Sasuke is right.  You should be hailed as a hero.  Let's see where she goes with this.* Kurama stated.
