They're back

- Third person's pov. -

//Outside Konohagakure's gates //

Walking down a dirt road that lead towards Konohagakure was four males. The oldest of the four were talking to the second oldest who was half paying attention to him while reading a book as they walked. Since the male wasn't paying attention, the oldest huffs before looking around their surroundings.

"We should be there soon."

"FINALLY! I can't wait to get back!" The youngest of the four shouts while jumping up and down excitedly, their blond pony tail whiping around in the process and smacking the last male in the group's face.

"Baka! Watch where you swing your hair or I'll cut it off!" The male growled while swiping the boys hair out of his face.

"Hey, it's not my fault I'm fabulous! And don't you dare cut my hair!" the male said while holding his hair close to himself, a thick strand of hair covered in charms could be seen through the pony tail.

The male huffed before adjusting the sword on his waist, charms of his own hanging off the grip as they twinkled in the sun light.

"Boys knock it off. You haven't seen each other in three years. Try to get along?" The oldest male says before he caught sight of the village gates, "Welp, we're here. Don't wait up for me." He says before running off in the directions of the hot springs.

"Pervy Sage!" The blond male shouted with his hand out stretched before dropping it after realizing his words would be meaningless, "Aaaand there he goes....."

The male reading the book chuckles before walking ahead of the two younger boys, "Come on, the Hokage will be expecting us once she hears the complaints from the hot springs."

The blond groans before catching up with the other males, "You know very well she'll be the one to catch him Kakashi-Sensei."

"That's probably true but I think we'd all like to live another day and get there before Lady Tsunade calls for us." Kakashi says while giving the blond and swordsmen an eye smile.

The blond rolls his eyes before following the two in. They hadn't even made it to the Kage tower when an ANBU jumps in front of them.

Not missing a beat Kakashi raises an eyebrow, "Lady Hokage found Jiraiya and wants to see us?"

The ANBU nods before disapering. Kakashi gives the two boys a 'I told you so' look with his one eye before they head towards the tower at a quicker pace than they had been originally.

"I see that you're back." Tsunade says while glancing from the three males standing in front of her desk to the beat up Jiraiya that lays on the floor groaning in pain.

Kakashi chuckles lightly as he nods his head in agreement, "Yes, their training has gone well. Sasuke is now a master with his sword and has learned to control his Sharingan, as well as gaining more jutsu and more practice on his tie-jutsu."

Tsunade nods before glancing at Jiraiya who was in the process of standing up, "And what of Naruto?"

"He's gained knowledge of sealing and is almost on par with me but will need more training to be there. As for his tie and Nin-jutsu, it has gone up but his gen-jutsu is still non existent but he's able to get himself out of some pretty advanced ones."

Tsunade nods before truing her gaze on the two boys in question. They had grown up, that much was for certain, but if they had mentally as well was remained to be seen.

Naruto had let his hair grow out more to where it now reached his shoulders but he had it up in a pony tail. His headband was around his forehead while the piece of hair that contained his charms dangled at the side of his face, now free of the pony tail. His cloths were similar to when he came back from the Kiri war, the black shinobi pants and shoes had not changed, but he now wore a dark orange muscle shirt with the Uzumaki symbol in black on the back.
