Exhausted, I sat down on the floor.
The Kyuubi split up into the two siblings again, but they looked pretty battered. Naruto also slumped down beside me, exhausted.
We both suddenly felt how hands put on our backs and gave each other chakra. At the same time the four of us turned around. While Konan helped me, Tsunade took care of the blonde. Both of them healed our numerous wounds, although they didn't look any better. When I got up, I swayed a little, but caught myself and ran to those who needed healing the most.
After everyone was more or less fit again, the Chaosninja as well as the little foxes and me were sent to the hospital, despite violent protests.
But as soon as we were in the arms of Itachi and Kakashi, we were asleep. Those present smiled. Vulona and Vulpix had withdrawn again ‘inside us fen and were also sleeping peacefully.
~ after we wake up ~
The first thing I saw when I woke up was Tsunade who shouted: ‘‘ Now the visiting hours are finally over, you won't run away. ‘‘
Then she pushed half Konoha out of the room. I turned to Naruto, who was lying in bed next to me. There was a big grin on his face when he said: ‘‘ Already awake? ‘‘
His look became more serious when he asked: ‘‘ What you said to me before the fight, was that true? ‘‘ First I looked confused, but then I smiled.
Now I nodded tentatively: ‘‘ Yes, it was meant seriously. But what do you feel? Now it was Naruto's turn to grin: ‘‘ I thought you'd never ask. I love you too, Kari-chan. ‘‘
‘‘ Naruto-kun, i-I'm so happy. Oh her, looks like Vulona has found someone too ... ‘‘
And indeed Vulona and Vulpix sat across from each other and kissed.
We looked at each other, then did the same for them. His lips pressed gently against mine. When we broke up after an eternity, we looked at each other in silence.
Until the boy asked: ‘‘ Kari-chan, should we go to eat some noodle soup? ‘‘ I answered right away: ‘‘ Naru-chan, that's a great idea. ‘‘ We grabbed the two little ones and climbed out of the window.
Tsunade entered shortly afterwards. Snorting angrily, she said: ‘‘ Now they have run away after all. ‘‘

So, a nice ending. Not at all, a short chapter follows. xP
