Right before Kiba could get to making Naruto something to eat, there was a knock at the door. 'Thank God!' Kiba thought as he realized that he could use this as an excuse to get away from the massive, growing kid on his couch. He ran to the door fast enough so that Naruto couldn't react in time, and opened it. What he saw left him breathless. He was face to face with someone's abs! He slowly tilted his head upwards, and saw who the massive kid was.

"SHIKAMARU!?" Kiba yelled.

Shikamaru sighed, and simply replied, "I kind of... need a place to stay. I heard that your family wasn't going to be here for a while, and I'm pretty sure that my parents wouldn't like to see that their son was almost eight feet tall."

Kiba stood there, speechless. Shikamaru really had grown. He had already gotten rid of his jacket and shirt, leaving his massive chest bare. His pants looked more like shorts on him now, and his monstrous thighs were putting too much pressure on them as tiny rips were visible. Kiba then looked down, noticing that Shikamaru's massive feet were bare. He was probably to lazy to get new sandals after the first pair had burst off of him. He continued to stare as Shikamaru until he heard him as, "So? Can I?"

"Oh, why not!? You AND Naruto can stay here!"

Shikamaru walked in, and asked, "Naruto? Why is he-Woah!"

Lying on a couch that was no longer big enough for him, Naruto stared at Shikamaru, yelling, "Hey! You grew too! Why don't you lie down somewhere, Kiba was about to make me something to eat. I'm sure he wouldn't mind making enough for both of us!"

"There is NO way I'm feeding both of you!" Kiba shouted, being really mad now.

Naruto smiled. "Yes, you WILL!"

Shikamaru examined Naruto. He was bigger than he was! At first, he had thought that there was something wrong with him, but now, he had living proof that he wasn't the only one growing! He was getting worried.
