"Head to Shikamaru's place?" Temari said, before turning around and walking towards the place in question.
"Why?" Naruto asked.
"Maybe he has some jutsu that you can learn? He's a smart guy and so's his family. Chances are they have plenty of awesome jutsu." Temari replied. She mentally counted down for Naruto's cheer. 'Three... two... one...
"Why didn't I think of that? Let's go!" Naruto said, rushing past Temari, but suddenly being stopped by her grabbing his jacket. Naruto then said, "Why'ja do that? Lemme go!"
Temari brought out a collar and said, "Shikamaru's mom told me that if you wanted to enter the Nara Household, you would have to put this on."
"Why me and not anyone else?" Naruto asked.
"She said that she would support any Hokage candidate that would put this on. And trust me, If she supports you, so will every Nara clan member." Temari said. She then flashbacked to the previous conversation with Yoshino.
----
"Mrs. Nara, I wish to date your son, Shikamaru." Temari said as she and Yoshino Nara sat down to talk with each other over tea.
"If you want to date my son, Then you must complete a task for me." Yoshino said, she brought out a collar and handed it to Temari. "You must put this collar on someone and bring them here."
"What will the collar do?" Temari asked as she put away the collar.
"It's a special collar, passed down from mother to daughter on my side of the family. It will seal off all the chakra of whoever wears it and the collar can only be removed by a woman's hand." Yoshino said.
"Why do you want me to bring the person here?" Temari asked.
"There's two reasons. First reason, it proves you truly want to date my son. Second reason, Shikamaru's father has gotten too lazy as my current servant and I have decided a replacement is due." Yoshino answered.
"Any candidates for your new servant?" Temari asked.
Yoshino thought for a moment.
"Naruto Uzumaki. He has such a large amount of energy and pretty much has an unbreakable will!" Yoshina said with a smile, before fidgeting in place like a lovesick schoolgirl. "Ooohhh! I do so love a good challenge!"
Shikaku and Shikamaru, who had secretly overheard the conversation, prayed and thanked whatever deity that put Naruto in the sights of Yoshino.

Temari shook herself out of the flashback as soon as Naruto took the collar and put it on. He weaved in place for a few seconds.
"I feel weird, kinda tired." Naruto muttered.
"You'll be fine..." Temari said, before grabbing Naruto by the hand.
