As he prepares to unravel the scrolls you grab his arm. Can’t let him fight them, what can he do? Even if he’s actually strong, it’s already 2 on 1. “I-I can’t. I need your help”, you lie. Suddenly, something bursts out of the water, the blue skinned man! And he’s wielding his sword. Your hands fly into action, “Fuuton: Time Suspension!”, a cold wind gathers and suddenly he freezes mid air, just as he’s about to smash Hoshi. He looks a lot like a shark: beady eyes, blue skin, razor sharp teeth, ugh
“Hoo, close.” Hoshi crouches down and grabs your hands, pulling you onto his back. He supports you by placing his hands under your butt, but you feel a grope. “Sorry, accident eh.” You decide to chew him out later if you remember.
He immediately starts running on the surface of the water, but you begin to see the tree tops. The water is dropping quickly. You turn to see your pursuer is gone, the jutsu didn’t last long; he must be insanely strong to break out so quickly. You look around but see nothing but you see something poke out of the water and it’s moving at a super high speed. It begins to rise, cutting the water in half. What is that? The sword; and it’s closing in fast. “Hoshi!” Hoshi glances back as well but he doesn’t say anything.
You move your arms from Hoshi’s neck to around his body. You try to draw chakra from the Nanabi, but it’s painful, whatever they did, it was affecting you. Still, wings sprout from your back and you take flight, holding onto Hoshi. You don’t look back to see the sword slicing through the water, but you imagine it was a close call. You focus on ascending, into the clouds and above, to get out of view.
“Fuu…I’m sorry.”
You manage a smile, “For what?”
“Uh”, he seems a bit confused.
“Well, I’m sorry I lied”, your tone is somewhat sarcastic.
“I’m sorry I lied too”, his voice sounding serious
“About what?” You don’t remember anything he lied about in particular, maybe his life in takiagakure?
“Earlier”, his voice still serious, it scares you; so does the awkward silence. “I guess I do love you”, his voice more familiar now, what you had become accustomed to.
“What do you mean guess?” You grin and tighten your hold, to hug him closer. Though his words aren’t entirely absolute, you can feel it
“Ah”, he sounds a bit flustered, “I mean”
You cut him off, “I know…hahaha”, you begin laughing, happy once more.
---
You had been flying for a while. “Hey, you can land if you want. I’ll carry you.” Maybe it was just exhaustion, or effects from whatever they did earlier but you’re definitely having trouble drawing on the nanabi’s chakra and it seems to be getting worse and worse. You think you’re headed the right way to Konohagakure, but you’re not sure if you can fly all the way, and at this height falling could be pretty bad.
A. Continue flying
B. Go by foot

“Alright”, you respond. You begin to descend into the forest below. Somehow, you manage to get clear of the tree tops without eating green and land on the ground safely, on a road no less, even better. You turn to Hoshi, “Hoshi, what happened to your wound? Is it better?”
“Eh?” He smiles nervously and nods, “Of course, you did a good job treating it!” Hard to believe him when he’s sweating like that.
You tug at his cloak. “Show me…” Such a wound is worrisome, though he obviously doesn’t want you to worry about him. He sighs and obliges, removing the cloak to show off the same ragged grey shirt he always wears, and baggy brown pants that his legs looks a bit fat. You lift his shirt a bit and see the bandages are bloody though fairly dry. It looks ok at first but you notice an off colour part, looks green or yellow. “This is…this is infected.” You look up at him to see him frowning.
“It’s fine, really.” He puts a hand on your shoulder to reassure you. “But what about you?” He takes your hands and looks at them, though you’d prefer he didn’t. The wound still isn’t completely healed, especially after the bijuu chakra weakened. Though the holes from the weapon are closed the flesh is still raw and bloody. You know your legs are in the same condition.
“Well…let’s just get to Konoha quickly”, you remark. The two of you both begin walking down the road but he keeps looking down at your legs, probably the wounds.
“It’s fine…” you say softly.
He shakes his head, “It’s still bleeding. Come on, I’ll carry you.”
“You don’t need to, really.” You roll your eyes but he insists.
You find yourself on his back again, and though you were reluctant, you still enjoy it, there’s really nothing like it. “I don’t mean to baby you, I just like it.” You can you only see the back of his head but you know he has the same silly grin he always does when he’s happy.
Something speeds past you. Or rather someone, err…some two. A man carrying another man? What…
Whoever it is turns around and runs back to face you. “Ah, the flames of youth!” The man on his back looks sick.
“W-what?” Hoshi asks, sounding confused. He’s not the only one. The strange man was clad in a green jump suit and had the weirdest bowl cut. But what’s that? The konoha headband?
You put your chin on Hoshi’s shoulder, looking past his head. “Are you from Konohagakure?”
“That’s right!” He grins, his teeth sparkling, but it’s creepy.
Others run up to you as well. More Konoha ninja?
“How romantic!” A pink haired girl, poking her face at the two of you.
“Oh are you training as well!?!” Another o-wait…a small version of the green man?
“W-what is this?” You peer around you, surrounded by some weird people.
Even more, a blond boy with whiskers; another young man, he looked plain besides his eyes; a girl, the most normal of them all. “Ah! Sakura(-chan) I’ll carry you too!” The pink haired girl, Sakura? Hits him over the head
The last two ignore you and move on, thank goodness. But the girl, Sakura pokes her face in again, “This headband? It’s a takiagaure headband.”
“Oh…yeah” You answer awkwardly.
“But what’s a takigakure ninja doing here?” Sakura again.
“Yea that is weird!” The blonde boy, these people really were a nuisance.
“No way! Are you a missing-nin!?!” The rest of the group turns their attention to you, include the two who passed you previously. They seemed to get serious really quickly, probably getting defensive.
A. Run
B. Try to explain your story quickly but you feel they’ll annoy the hell out of you.
C. Make up some sort of excuse or lie(suggestions)

B. We can be honest with these mofos. Also, Naruto knowing that Fu is a jinchuuriki is an automatic pass to Tsunade allowing us to stay in konoha

I agree with everyone else on the tragic ending stuff. But remember Cactus, YOU are the author and OUR choices only reflect what you write. If we pick a tragic ending, give it to us straight. If we don't pick one, then we get a good ending. Just adjust the story to our choices. If we pick a bad ending, that's OUR own fault.
But with the way that this story is going, and cactus's temperament, and the tragic ending question, I had a feeling he was going for a Hoshi gets captured and tortured to death, while we get our bijuu sucked out of us. How romantic....

Nothing that bad? That barely skirts the lowest echelon of "Tragic ending". If it's any less than that, it's just not tragic. At least they get to pass together and possibly live together eternally in the afterlife.

The best option is probably to tell them. “We should just tell them right?” You whisper into Hoshi’s ear. He nods in response. He lets you down so you can address this group.
“Right…”
You begin to explain to the entire story. Well, most of it, you leave out Hoshi’s relations to the cloaked men, but otherwise you go into detail starting from your escape from Takiagakure.
“Men in black cloaks? Akatsuki” Sakura seems to think aloud. “Then…you’re a jinchuuriki!” She backs up, pointing in surprise.
“Eeh…” They seem to have caught on pretty quickly. They seemed to know who had tried to capture you earlier, Akatsuki. “Well that is…”
You turn to Hoshi but he doesn’t know what to say either, he just shrugs. Uh oh…
Suddenly the blonde boy with whiskers jumps up, sticking his face just too close to yours with his hand raised. “Oh! You too?” You turn your face away from him looking annoyed. Too close… But is he implying he’s a jinchuuriki as well? Konohagakure’s nine tails? You turn to face him again, this time poking his chest but also slowly pushing him back at the same time.
“You’re the nine tails?” He nods with a smile. Somehow you can instantly tell he’s a reliable guy from that alone.
“Naruto…” Sakura, annoyed again, pulls Naruto back by the collar of his jacket and smacks him on the head.
“In any case you should come with us to see Lady Tsunade.”
“Who?” You inquire, looking puzzled.
“Oh, the hokage”, Sakura exclaims with a smile. They seem like good people.
“Uh. How about introductions!” Hoshi interjects. “I’m Hoshi!”
“Fuu. Nice to meet you.” You’re particularly fond of Naruto already, simply knowing he’s a Jinchuuriki like yourself.
Naruto, Sakura, Lee, Neji, Ten-Ten, Gai, Kakashi – the ninja of the Leaf village. They seemed nice.
YOU GO TO KONOHA AND LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER WITH HOSHI THE END

Well that was fun. I particularly enjoyed the fight sequences. How we helped Naruto defend the leaf against Pain was pretty ballin, to say the least. Oh! Can't forget about how we helped the alliance take down Madara.
*knows it was a joke* *...hopes it was a joke*

Entering the village was easy when you have an entire escort practically.
“Hoshi, about that wound. We’ll need to get you to the hospital to treat the infection.” Sakura was very astute, and a very skilled medical ninja, yet probably no younger than you. Medical ninjutsu were particularly hard because of the degree of control required, especially for your own hands and the patient’s body. You’re impressed; glancing at your hands to see the damage was mostly healed now. “I’ll take him there”, she stops and turns to Naruto. “Naruto, can you take Fuu to see Lady Tsunade?”
Naruto nods, “Alright.” Personally, you want to stick with Hoshi. Though you have an innate trust in Naruto you feel safer sticking with Hoshi. Then again, you also have a desire to sightsee around the village, it’s so much bigger than yours.
A. Go see their Hokage
B. Insist on staying with Hoshi
C. Ask Naruto to show you around the village first.
