"Uzukage-sama, the Godaime Hokage is at the gates." a guard informed the silver haired male sitting on his throne.

"He is asking to have an audience with you." Kakashi sighed deeply before answering.

"Let him in," he ordered.

"Let them keep their weapons but keep an eye on them. Have SWIRL escort them into the throne room."

"Hai, Uzukage-sama!"

"I'm not going to talk to him." the voice that came from behind him was stern, her tone final. She emerged from the shadows wearing a light blue kimono with a long train that trailed behind her as she walked. Husband and wife wore nothing to show that they were the leaders of their village except for the lavish clothes.

"It's been two years Naru," he reminded her.

"Isn't it time to forgive him?"

"I have long since forgiven him, but that doesn't mean that I want anything to do with him." he reached out for her as he rose, his height still towering over her lithe frame.

"It's your choice." he promised as he pulled her into an intimate embrace.

"I just wanted you to get closer to your real family."

"I chose which family I wanted to be with when I left Konoha two years ago." she reminded him. Before he could reply, there was a voice coming from somewhere further inside their castle.

"Do you have to go see?" Kakashi asked, unwilling to break their close proximity.

"I should check on the twins."

"Which one?"

"Both of them," she gave him a chaste kiss before pulling away from him.

"Alright, he's going to be here soon anyway."

"I'll see you later." she whispered.

"Uzukage-sama, might I announce Godaime Hokage of Konoha, Jiraiya-sama."

"Welcome to Uzugakure!" Kakashi rose from his seat, silently thanking that Naru had already left when the Toad Sage was announced.

"So you're the Uzukage," Jiraiya commented as he surveyed the throne room. His eyes flickered around the spacious room, the beautiful décor dotting the place as he walked towards the throne with two of his ANBU flanking him.

"It is good to see you again Kakashi."

"I'm afraid I can't say the same, Hokage-sama," Kakashi said in his lazy drawl.

"I'm not surprised," Jiraiya smiled still even when he felt a pang in his chest.

"What did you want to discuss with me?"

"Cut right to the chase, why don't you?" he was still jovial even through the undertone of dismissal.

"I want to make an alliance with you."

"I'm afraid I have to decline."

"You haven't even listened to the conditions yet."

"I don't need to know your conditions to figure out what you're trying to do, Jiraiya-sama." a pair of smoky eyes glared at the older man.

"What are you talking about?"

"Did you think we wouldn't know what you'd tried to do to your other 'allies'?" Kakashi retorted.

"Do you think I'm stupid enough to not see what you're trying to do? I've lost what little respect I had of you when you decided it was a good idea to take over Suna."
