Tower

Naruto still felt a bit tired from his training. Lee's abilities had definitely gotten better and he could feel blood pounding through his body as he fought him. Although he was tired, he still felt a bit energized and was looking forward to finding some sort of mission to do. Even though it was his day off that didn't mean there was nothing that the Village needed to have done. At least on his day off, Naruto wanted to be productive.

As he walked over to the Hokage Tower he saw Shikamaru and Temari outside. Temari seemed a bit agitated as Shikamaru stood there leaning against a wall, looking down at his feet. Naruto wondered to himself, "It almost looks like they're arguing. I wonder what they're doing. But then, it's probably none of my business. That Temari lady may hit me with her fan if I interfere. But Shikamaru's a friend. Do I interrupt them, or go on inside the tower and forget about them?" Naruto decided to go talk to Shikamaru and Temari and see what's going on.
