It had been three years since I was forced to part ways with the Sengoku period, and all the wonderful people I had come to think of not only as close friends, but as family. Those smiling, pouting, laughing, grumpy faces were a part of my life for three months before heaven itself tore me away. Not a day went by where I didn’t have to hold back tears and clutch my chest, trying to suppress the pain of being away from the one and only place I felt like home.

And the man I loved most.

Oda Nobunaga: The first of the three unifiers of Japan, and one of the most ruthless rulers in Japanese history. He was cruel and calculating to the outside world, but I’d come to know him as an ambitious, strong man shaped by circumstances outside of his control. The way he held me and looked at me couldn’t be done by a man who was legitimately as devilish and evil as he was made out to be. He filled my days with warmth, he protected me, and he loved me more than anyone else in the world. The stone he commissioned outside Azuchi with my name proved it beyond a shadow of a doubt. But there was one thing he didn’t know.

“Mama!”

I wasn’t the only one who left in the wormhole. When I returned to the 21st century, I found out I was pregnant with his child, and soon birthed his son. A little, mischievous, baby boy who smiled just like his father. His name was Nobuhiko, and he was the only thing I had left to remind myself of the man I loved more than life itself.

“What is it, sweetie?”

“Can I have a candy?”

He really was his father’s son. Sweet tooth and all. I couldn’t help but grin. “One, and that’s it. You’re going to spoil your appetite.”

Nobuhiko giggled and stumbled after me as I went to get his favorite candies from the jar. When I gave it to him, he took it and gobbled it up immediately.

“Hey, you need to savor those! Don’t just hork them down,” I laughed.

“Sorry Mama!”

“And what do we say?”

“Thank you Mama. I love you.”

“I love you too.” I sighed and picked my toddler up, making sure he was level with me. “Nobuhiko, I have something important to tell you. And you’re going to need to be a big boy for this.” He tilted his head, obviously not yet prepared to react to what I was going to say next. “We’re moving. Tonight. We’re going to pack up our most important things and say goodbye to our home forever.”

“Why?”

“Well… Do you remember when I said your daddy is somewhere very far away?”

“Yeah…”

“We’re going to see him. We’re going to be with daddy forever.”

Nobuhiko’s eyes lit up. His jaw practically hit the floor. He instantly began screaming, trying to get out of my arms. “I’m gonna meet Daddy? Are you being for real?!”

“Of course I am! I mean it, honey!”

“We have to get ready! Mama! What are you waiting for?!”

Laughing, I set him down and followed him to his bedroom, where I helped him pack only the most essential things. Favorite toys, blankets, and things the Sengoku couldn’t replace. I’d never seen my son so excited before. I felt horrible when I’d take him to playgroups and he’d be the only one without a father. I couldn’t tell him the truth: That he was born of two different eras altogether. That, realistically, he shouldn’t even exist. But he was only three, still very little. He didn’t grasp how tragic his circumstances were on the outside. Well, hopefully it wouldn’t be tragic for long.

I’d been talking with my friend Sasuke for months, and he said tonight was the night the wormhole was going to open, and we’d all be sent back to the Sengoku. Funny enough, I found myself thinking ‘We’re finally getting sent home.’ The world of 500 years ago had been more of a home to me than anything my own time offered me.

We waited until evening, and took a train to a part of Kyoto I’d become all too familiar with. The very same place the wormhole appeared the first time I’d fallen in. How wonderful it was I’d won fortune’s favor and was able to come here again, this time for good.

“Mama! Uncle Sasuke!” Nobuhiko let go of my hand and sprinted forward to Sasuke, who was waiting for us up ahead. The man smiled and picked Nobuhiko up.

“You’ve grown, young man. Are you ready to go on a trip?”

“I’m gonna go see Daddy! Are you coming too?”

“I absolutely am.” Sasuke waved as I caught up and handed me my son back. “Are you ready, Y/N? Unlike last time, I believe this is the last time the wormhole will be appearing. There truly is no going back once we cross the threshold. Are you sure this is what you want?”

I glanced at Nobuhiko, who still wore the biggest smile on his face. He had his little bag in his hands, with a sailboat on the front. My stomach began doing flips. This was really and truly happening. If we pushed ahead, we’d be back in the company of Nobunaga, and everyone Sasuke and I had come to know and love with the fullest capacity of our hearts. And my family could finally be complete. I kissed Nobuhiko’s cheek and nodded. “This is what I want more than anything in the world.”

“Good.” Sasuke smiled warmly.  “He truly has his father’s smile…”

Thunder roared in Kyoto, and the clouds began to kill the remaining light faster than the setting sun. I braced myself. We knew what was coming now. Nobuhiko began to whimper.

“Mama, I’m scared!”

“Don’t worry, baby. It’ll stop soon.”

Sasuke pulled us close to him, guarding us as the white lightning made its commanding strikes on earth. The wind felt more powerful this time than ever before, and the storm began to blend with Nobuhiko’s cries. I looked over at him as he buried his face in my chest, as if trying to hide himself from God himself. I couldn’t help but repeat myself. “It’ll stop soon! I promise! As long as I’m here, nothing is going to happen to you!”

“Y/N! Look!”

I tore my gaze away, and gasped when I saw the very familiar sight of the wormhole beginning to manifest.

“We need to act now! Just go! Go!” Sasuke cried, ushering all of us forward. I held onto Nobuhiko as tightly as I could, trying to keep my eyes open for his sake. My head spun faster and faster as the fog thickened. My son kept sobbing, completely and utterly helpless to the situation I’d dragged him into. Immediately before blacking out, I could hear him one last time.

“MAMA!”

---------------------------------------

“She’s waking up.”

“How do you know?”

“I can see her moving.”

“That doesn’t mean– Oh! Her eyes are opening!”

…Ieyasu? Mitsunari? I forced my heavy eyelids open, and my surroundings began to make themselves more clear. It worked. I was back home.

“Y/N… Can you hear me?” asked the gentle voice of an angel. Mitsunari looked over at me and smiled. “I can’t believe you’re finally back…”

I nodded, and tried to sit up. “Mitsunari!”

He laughed and nodded. “Welcome home.” He glanced over at Ieyasu, who was trying his hardest to not look over at me. Eventually, he gave in.

“We were worried about you. It’s been three years. We didn’t even think we’d ever see you again.”

“I’d do everything I could to come back!”

“Well you should’ve come sooner.”

I laughed, and so did Ieyasu and Mitsunari. Immediately I was starting to feel better. But I froze. “Where’s–?”

“Your son? He’s being babysat.” Mitsunari smiled and looked at the door. “I can’t believe there’s two Nobunagas around here now.”

“Babysat?”

The door flung open, and in barreled Nobuhiko, dressed in a dashing little yukata. “Mama!!”

“Hey, you can’t–!” Hideyoshi darted in after him, and froze in his place when he saw me. “Y/N! You’re awake!”

I laughed and hugged my son, stroking his jet black hair. “Hideyoshi… I missed you so much!”

He joined the rest of us on the floor and pulled me and Nobuhiko in for a hug. “Thank God you’re safe… We were praying every day you’d make it back to us someday… And your son–! How did–?”

“I had him after I returned,” I explained, hugging Hideyoshi back. “Crazy, isn’t it?”

“I’ll say. When you got back he started running around the castle, asking all of us if we were his dad.”

His dad.

I pulled away and frowned. “Where’s Nobunaga? Does he know I’m home? Does he know about…?”

Hideyoshi smiled warmly. “Don’t worry. He knows.”

I looked at Nobuhiko, who was bouncing up and down. “Uncle Hideyoshi said Daddy’s coming back today!”

And as if on cue, the door opened for a final time. The man of the hour stepped in, and locked eyes with me. His gaze completely and utterly shifted. From “warlord mode” into the warm, passionate eyes that had seen me at my lowest and at my highest. The other warlords took their leave, and left me, Nobunaga, and Nobuhiko alone together.

We all just stared in silence, trying to take in the situation. There he stood, tall, proud, and handsome as ever. Nobunaga broke the stillness and moved towards us, crouching down to get on our level. He cupped my face, his big, calloused hand perfectly fitting the shape of my cheek. I leaned into it and closed my eyes. Whether I intended to or not, tears began to fall.

“Nobunaga…” I moved into a full embrace, breaking down in his arms, gripping his clothes like my life depended on it. “I missed you! Nobunaga!” I buried myself in him and couldn’t hold back. I was sobbing, I was shaking. I was back with him.

“No time has passed at all,” Nobunaga whispered, hugging me so tight I felt I wasn’t going to be able to breathe. “My one and only love… You’ve come back to me. You’ve come back at last…”

We sat this way for a few more minutes, allowing me to get all my tears, three years of grief and heartbreak out. I kissed his lips, his nose, his cheeks, everything I could in those few minutes. Finally, I could kiss him again. I could finally be with the man that would love me even after Hell froze over.

“Oh, Nobunaga. I don’t know if you knew, but…” I wiped my eyes and gestured to Nobuhiko, who was staring starstruck at the two of us. He played with his hands a bit, clearly unable to put together the proper words he wanted to communicate. He was only little, after all.

Nobunaga didn’t say anything. He just stared back at the child, narrowing his eyes a bit as he looked him over. Nobuhiko swallowed. “Daddy…?”

My lover stood up and left the room for a moment, returning with a little jar. He knelt down and held out one of its contents.

“Konpeito!!” Nobuhiko dashed forward and gobbled up the treat, squealing with joy when Nobunaga scooped him up for a hug.

“My boy!” Nobunaga pulled me in with the group, planting a kiss on my head as well as Nobuhiko’s. “He’s perfect. He looks just like his mother, Y/N.”

“Don’t lie,” I laughed, hugging Nobunaga again. “I can’t believe it. We’re home. We’re all together again!”

“And we will be forever. Nothing’s going to take you from me again, my lucky charm. Or you, my son.”

Nobuhiko looked up at us, bouncing and giggling like he always was. “I love you Mama! I love you Daddy!”

[bourtothehokage]

I wanted make this story for months just for some werid reason.(Btw i don't own bourto or naruto)

It was normal morning it was 8am ready for training for bourto and sarada they went to their team and they started but did sarada something was gonna happened today far from her normal days like usual.They were throwing but she felt a sharp pain in her stomach she groan Whispered to her self ''My stomach killing me' 'she said with her eyes twitching but she needed carry on she knew needed to train her shargian like usual even land attack at her father Sasuke.As bourto asked her ''Are you feeling okay sadara seems like your stomach hurting a bit'' i said ''Im fine bourto Okay?'' she said but bourto questioned her again ''Are you sure tho'' but sarada looked pretty fed up this time ''IM OKAY BOURTO STOP ASKING ME THIS SILLY QUESTION'' As she gets home sakura says ''hey sweetie have good day today?'' sarada said ''Not really my stomach hurts a bit its like sharp pain in my lower stomach'' she said she walked to her bedroom and feels a wet sticky sensation between her legs her mom comes in sakura ''Hun i think we needed to talk'' she said i said ''mom am in trouble'' she said not at all sadara i saw there was blood on your dress. and i know whats happending darling.

Part 2 Soon.

Omg imagine Sakura is out on a mission and Sarada gets her period and only Sasuke is there?

If there is a sight Sasuke is familiar with, it’s blood. If there’s one that he’s not prepared for, it’s his daughter curled up in a ball on the bathroom floor, crying and surrounded by bloody tissues.

His first thought is that she’s injured herself while training, and he doesn’t spare another for anything else besides picking her up and flying through the house at breakneck speed.

The front door slams shut behind them, and Sarada’s cries intensify to shrieks. With a burst of speed, Sasuke makes a beeline for the hospital with his precious burden.

Sakura’s gone, out on a mission, but Tsunade’s bound to be there, probably napping at her desk. And it’s to her office that he points his body as he rockets through the air across the rooftops.

-x-

“What the hell is the meaning of this, Uchiha?”

Now into her sixties and unceremoniously woken from her nap by the sound of her office door exploding off of its hinges, the former Hokage is even more ornery than usual.

The Uchiha’s eyes are full of a mixture of anger and agony as he sets his daughter gently down on the sofa off to the left of the giant desk.

“Papa, I’m fine,” she insists, wiping her tears.

"You’re not fine,” he retorts tersely, “I found you crying and covered in blood.”

Tsunade watches their exchange silence, perfectly-plucked eyebrow raised.

Every line in the older Uchiha’s body reads extreme tension and concern, while the younger girl radiates embarrasment.

“I said I’m fine, Papa,” she snaps, folding her arms tightly across her chest. Her lips press into a thin line, and she looks as though she’s in pain and liable to burst back into tears at any second.

Sasuke is taken aback by her outburst, she’s never spoken like that to him or Sakura before. Lost, he turns to Tsunade, who is studying Sarada with a critical eye.

“How old are you, baby girl?” She coos gently.

“Eleven,” Sarada mutters, eyes locked on the floor.

Tsunade pulls something out of her desk drawer and then moves to sit beside her near-granddaughter on the couch. Putting an arm around her gently, she asks, “Is this your first time?”

Sarada nods, a tear escaping down her cheek. “Momma explained it to me.”

Tsunade nods understandingly. “So you know what’s happening.” She rubs Sarada’s back soothingly as she starts to hiccup.

“It just hurts a lot, more than I thought it would-” at this Sasuke becomes alarmed “-and when I tried to put the tampon in, I couldn’t do it right and I got blood everywhere. I’m sorry!”

She wails and buries her face against Tsunade, who holds her tightly and makes comforting sounds. She glances up at Sasuke, who is frozen in confusion, his mismatched gaze flitting from her to his daughter rapidly.

Cooly, she orders, “Uchiha, go get some chocolate ice cream and a heating pad.”

His face twists in annoyance. “I don’t see what that’s got to do with-“

“DO IT NOW,” she barks, not having lost her aura of authority from her days leading the village.

With a scowl, Sasuke leaves, throwing a backward glance at Sarada, who’s now curled up against the blonde woman’s side.

-x-

When he returns thirty minutes later, he finds the Godaime and the Uchiha heir snuggled up under a blanket, watching a movie on Tsunade’s laptop. Sarada is giggling as the older woman points out the ridiculous flaws in whatever romantic comedy they’re watching.

He wants to be angry at whatever foolishness Tsunade is filling his daughter’s head with instead of healing her, but Sarada is smiling and laughing, all traces of blood and pain gone.

Handing Tsunade the bag of goods, he turns to his little princess. “Are you alright?”

Sarada nods and eats a spoonful of the ice cream. “Tsunade-nee-chan gave me some medicine and the cramps went away.”

“Cramps…?”

He glances at Tsunade, who’s smirking and shaking her head.

“Still clueless about women as usual, Uchiha. Your daughter’s becoming a young lady. She’s started menstruating. You do know how that works, right?”

Sasuke turns green at the thought.

Tsunade’s mouth curls in a wicked grin. “If you can’t handle it, Sarada can stay with me until Sakura gets back.”

Sasuke narrows his eyes at her and lifts Sarada into his arms carefully. “That won’t be necessary. Are you ready to go, Sarada?”

She yawns and nods, laying her head against his chest and closing her eyes. Sasuke nods his thanks to Tsunade and turns to leave.

"Oh, Uchiha,” she sighs, “what are you going to do once she’s ready for sex?”

She swears she sees the threat of death in his eyes, and he can hear the ringing echo of her laughter all the way down the hall.

Ever since, the Ame trio regularly visit Konoha to see the Uzumaki-Namikaze family. As Nagato takes care of his little brother, a little secret spilled by the young kid changes forever the relationship between the trio.

This is linked to the Uzumaki clan AU I drew on my art blog [1 2 3 4] I wanted to write Nagato realizing he's having envious feelings toward both his friends and trying to repress them by being the perfect third wheel.

Chapter one under the cut, read the rest on AO3

Chapter 1: They are finally dating

In October, the Ame trio came to visit Naruto's family, having promised to stay until Naruto's 6th birthday.

Nagato was staying with Naruto while his parents were on their busy schedule. Naruto was scribbling a drawing of a frog while his big brother was reading a book.

“When I'm done with it I'll give it to you!”

“Aw, that's very nice of you Naruto.”

“Heehee”

Nagato glanced up from the pages to see the little boy frantically coloring his frog with a very bright shade of green and smiled.

“If you want you can give this frog two friends so Yahiko and Konan can have one too.”

“Ohhh! Yes, a good idea!”

He abandoned his coloring to pick up a red crayon and added another round frog to the drawing, then another. After a bit he looked at his drawing proudly then looked at his big bro for approval. Nagato took the drawing to inspect it, smiled and ruffled the boy's hair to congratulate him.

“Thank you Naruto, it's very nice, I'm sure Yahiko and Konan will love it too.”

“Tell big sis Konan that I even added flowers on the frog for her just like the one she has!”

“She'll love it, Naruto. Good job.”

The little kid smiled and started another drawing then stopped and bit, thinking, then turned to Nagato.

“Big bro Nagato... Yahiko, Konan and you aren't related, right?”

“No we're not, it's just you and I who are of the same clan.”

“I knew it! Because I saw Yahiko and Konan kiss the other day!”

“Oh really?? They kissed? That's nice, it was about time.”

Yahiko and Konan had been mutually expressing interest in each other for a little while now. They've been timidly going out together and holding hands briefly and Nagato knew it was only a matter of time before they got closer.

Nagato's thoughts were interrupted as he heard the little boy's stomach gurgle. He smiled at him.

“Naruto, do you want to come with me? I'm going out to get some food.”

“Oh sure!!”

The little boy put his shoes on as quickly as he could and waited at the door while Nagato put his own on.

Nagato bought taiyakis for Naruto and himself and they wandered a bit around the market when suddenly Nagato froze. Naruto pulled on Nagato's black coat and asked him what was wrong.

“Oh, nothing lil bro. Look. There's Yahiko and Konan doing groceries over there.”

“OHH!! Let's join them!”

“NO- nononono. Look. They're holding hands!”

“Huh? And? I want to say hello to big sis Konan and big bro Yahiko!”

“Oh, I know sweetie, I'm sorry. But they're on a date right now, we shouldn't disturb them, let's have them enjoy their moment just the two of them.”

Nagato was looking at them smiling, as they both hid from the main street to be able to see them without being seen. But Naruto thought his big brother looked kind of sad in the way he smiled. Naruto pulled on his sleeve.

“Are you okay Nagato?”

“Hmm? Yeah don't worry. I was lost in my thoughts.”

He didn't know why, but watching his friends having fun like that without him kind of pinched his heart a little. He brushed the thought away from his mind and took Naruto's little hand to get him somewhere else.

Kingdom Of Konoha by King Z 444

Anime » Naruto Rated: M, English, Boruto U., Sarada U., Words: 15k+, Favs: 7, Follows: 7, Published: Dec 4, 2018 Updated: Aug 7, 2020

7Chapter 1: A Party, A War, And A Regret

Wind blew through the king's hair as he looked across the lush green forest that surrounded his capitol city.

Naruto thought back to twenty years earlier when he help lead the forces of mankind against the Otsutsuki invasion that nearly destroyed all humans.

It had only taken a month for the entire war to end, but in that time eighty percent of all humans were killed but thanks to Naruto and Sasuke war was ended in mankind's favor.

Slowy yet surely mankind began to reproduce and a new age of peace was born.

Arms wrapped around Naruto's waist and the queen rested her head on her husband's shoulder "the guests will be arriving soon dear."

Naruto smiled and spun his wife around kissing her "then I suppose we should dress for the occasion."

Hinata picked up a brilliant pink gown for her twevle year old daughter Himawari "now this makes you look so pretty sweetie."

Himawari's eyes brightened " not as pretty as you momma."

Hinata smiled warmly at her daughter's comment and put a jewled tiara on her daughter's head " now where is your brother."

Himawari looked up at her mother with big blue eyes " he is out training with Inojin and Shikadai." Himawari smiled and giggled "but you just have to tell Lady Sarada is coming and he will come running."

A soft laugh came from Hinata, it was true her son was always at his happiest at the yearly Five Kingdom party, the only time of the year he could see one of his oldest friends, the one thing Boruto didn't like was all the teasing from his friends saying that Sarada is going to be his queen.

Hinata gently combed her daughter's hair "remember your brother doesn't like to be teased about Sarada."

Himawari nodded " I know it's just I really like Sarada and big brother will need a wife sooner or later and who is better than a girl that is well liked by most of the kingdom."

The queen sighed, it was true Sarada would be the perfect option for her son as a wife and queen, caring and fair she hoped her son would grow more than just friendly feelings for the Uchiha.

Hinata kissed her daughter's forehead " I know that Sarada would be a great choice but me and your father have decided to let Boruto choose his own wife."

Sometime later Boruto, Inojin, and Shikadai entered the great hall after a long round of sword training.

Hinata came up to her son seeing him in his train garb, covered in swear and bruises she sighed "oh Boruto you know the yearly party is tonight."

Inojin nudged him "oh he knows it's the only time of the year Lady Sarada comes to the castle."

Boruto elbowed his friend " I am sorry mother we will all go wash up and get changed" Boruto and his friends turned towards the bath house and Hinata called out " I left a outfit on your bed."

Boruto slid down into the steaming water until only his head was above water.

Inojin was slowly swiming around in the hot springs "so Boruto you excited for the party."

Boruto let out soft growl "you gonna talk more about Sarada."

Shikadai spoke up "well you are always at your happiest when you know Sarada is coming to the castle."

A deep blush appeared on Boruto's face, had he really been that obvious.

Shikadai smiled "don't be embarrassed Boruto, you are the heir to the throne and all heir's will need a wife to bear another heir and so on and so on, but the saying goes behind every great king is a even greater queen look at your parents for example. Sarada is a caring, fair and well liked woman in the kingdom and due to being your friend for several years it is only natural that people would picture you two ending up together."

"Huh when you put it like that it makes sense."

Inojin laughed " I can picture your wedding now, giant with the entire kingdom coming to see the next generation to continue the age of peace, ooh I can paint your wedding portrait."

Water splashed Inojin " come on Inojin I'm not even sure Sarada has any feelings for me anyway we should get out soon and prepare for the party, us young lords have to entertain guests" Boruto exclaimed his body turning a deeper shade of red from all the talk of him and his oldest female friend.

Boruto wrapped a towel around his waist and gathered his dirty clothes "alright see you two at the party tonight."

A door creeked opened and Boruto dropped his clothes into a wicker basket and looked to his bed for the outfit his mother had prepared for him, and was shocked to see a lean female body already laying in his bed a book obscuring Boruto's view of her face.

Confusion spread across Boruto's face "who are you, what are you doing in my room, I am going to call the guards."

A giggle sounded behind the book and slowly the girl dropped the book revealing the pleasantly familiar face of Sarada Uchiha "you would call the guards on one of your best friends" Sarada said in mock offense.

Happiness surged through Boruto "Sarada your here" he brought her into a deep hug.

Sarada blushed " I am glad to see you to Boruto but maybe you should get dressed first."

Boruto released his friend and was flooded with embarrassment "hehe sorry mind stepping out for a minuet so I can get dressed."

Sarada walked out and Boruto looked at the outfit his mother picked out for him, a black wool tunic with a leather interior and a matching pair of hosen's.

Boruto dressed quickly and slipped on some wool socks and leather boots and stepped out of his room to see Sarada hugging Himawari.

Himawari saw her brother "big brother Sarada is here."

Boruto rubbed his sister's head "I see" Sarada flashed him a smile "your very formal looking, my prince."

Boruto blushed as he looked over his friend, she had red dress that brought out her more developed womanly features, she was a scrawny thing when the two were young but only a few years back she had come for her annual vist and puberty had hit her hard strangely enough that was when Boruto started to have a crush on her.

As much as Boruto tried his blush wouldn't recede and his sister took note of it and she grinned "well I better get going I will see you two at the party" she winked at her brother.

Boruto sighed " I can't get mad at her" he turned to Sarada "so how exactly did you get into my room."

Sarada smiled "oh that was easy the queen let me in."

There were giggles heard from around a corner and Boruto scowled " ok Inojin Shikadai you can come out now."

Inojin and Shikadai came out smiling at the two.

Sarada smiled and hugged the two boys "it's so good to see you two again."

Inojin and Shikadai returned the hug with Inojin smirking "you know it's not the most respectful thing to be hugging another man's woman especially when that man is the prince."

A fire of rage burned inside Boruto, joking around eachother was one thing but in front of Sarada herself was different.

Sarada pinched Inojin's ear causing the boy to gasp in pain "no usually I am all for messing around with the prince, but don't go dragging me through this, got it?"

Inojin nodded vigorously and Sarada released his ear laughing and the laughter was soon joined by Boruto and Shikadai.

Inojin rubbed his ear " oh haha laugh it up, but we better head down to the dinning hall for the start of the party."

Guest had arrived from all of the five great kindoms, it was the one time of the year that where people from all over can come and enjoy themselves not having to worry about anything.

Many musicians were in the hall playing a fast happy beat, and several tables of food were strayed out for all to enjoy.

Himawari jumpped into her brother's arms " big brother isn't this great oh it's my favorite time of the year."

Time went by at a fast pace as Boruto went from eating to more conversations and finally to dancing.

Several fair maidens were quite eager to dance with the young prince, and while Boruto agreed and danced with several girls there was one ravened haired girl who had stayed as far away from dancing as she could.

The music changed to a slow and more romantic tone and the blonde prince walked up to his long time friend and did a slight bow "would my lady do me the honor of having this dance."

The slightest hint of a blush appeared on Sarada's face as she turned to her long time friend and grabbing his hand " of course my prince but let's not act so formal."

Conforming to the music the pair danced slowly swaying side to side, Sarada laying her head on Boruto's shoulder "this has been a nice night" Boruto blushed and smiled "yes it has."

The king smiled looking down on all the attendents of the party singling out his son and Sarada he couldn't help but smile and mutter "she would be the perfect queen for him."

"I'll pretend I didn't just hear that."

Naruto turned to see his longtime friend and rival standing before him " if you didn't want her around him you would have scared him off by now, but what do I this honor of being graced with your presence, you haven't showed up to one of these parties in three years."

Sasuke leaned on the railing next to Naruto " I have news for the Council of Kings."

Naruto's expression darkened " is it trouble."

Sasuke nodded as he watched his daughter slow dance so peacefully " I fear there will soon be another war, I'll explain everything at the meeting but first I need to ask a favor."

Naruto was shaken at the thought of another great war but managed to keep calm "what is it."

Sasuke sighed " I need you to house Sakura and Sarada in the castle till whenever I can guarantee they will be safe at home."

Naruto patted his friend on the back "of course I will house them" then the king smirked " I am sure Boruto will love having Sarada living here in fact there is a empty room right by Boruto she can have that."

Sasuke clutched his sword " the prince is a real nice kid and all I would hate to have to chop off a limb or two."

Naruto laughed as he swung a arm around his friend " come on let's get to the meeting."

Doors swung open to the Council of Kings meeting room the three other kings and the lone queen had already arrived taking there seats at the large circular table.

Naruto sat down and clapped his hands " sorry for being late but I received some troubling news from Sasuke and he would like to share with all of you now."

Everyone in the room turned towards Saskue and cleared his throat and began to speak " you all know that me and Naruto were able to end the war with the Otsutsuki after we were able to gain access to there use of dark magic. I have used my powers to monitor all survivors and recently I found that someone in their ranks has begun to gather dark magic to build another Zetsu army. I give half a year before they reach a invasion sized force I suggest you all prepare your Kingdoms for war."

There was shocked silence in the room lasting for several minuets until Naruto broke it "look we need to start recruiting more men into our armies, stocking up on food, building forts at key invasion points, forging weapons and armor, building up a naval feelt, and most importantly training the new recruits."

The other kings nodded in approval to the plan but the lone queen Kurotsuchi stood up "you make vaild and good points that I agree Naruto but why leave recruiting to only men."

This caught everyone's interest and Naruto smiled "good point Kurotsuchi I will make it so women can volunteer for my army but the other kings must come to there own decision, but otherwise I see that we are done here go back to your kingdoms and prepare for the worst."

Naruto watched as the kingdom leaders exited the meeting room and sighed " you know Sasuke I really thought we had nothing more to worry about for the longest time."

Sasuke sat down next to the king " I did to, but I need to ask you one more favor, I fear that when Sarada hears about this upcoming war and that women will be allowed into the army she will want to join, so I need you to train her beforehand, god knows how many times she's asked me to train her."

Naruto patted his friend on the back " don't worry Sasuke I know the perfect teacher for her."

Sasuke growled " not him, he does not need hours of alone time with my daughter."

Naruto only laughed " ok then other than us two can you name someone who can train her up to your standards, you know Boruto is one of the best swordsmen around."

A lack of options made Sasuke sigh " fine he is the best option."

A smirk grew wide across the king's lips " good I will tell them tomorrow, no need to worry them tonight."

A seat slid across the floor as Sasuke stood up " thank you Naruto, I have to go and see if anymore developments in the Zetsu army have been made" he walked to the door and suddenly stopped " take care of them, and make sure your son keeps his hands off my daughter."

And with those final words Sasuke was gone, and Naruto decided he should have a few hours of fun before he would be dug in for war preperations, and he headed down stairs to the party.

Boruto watched in amusment as Chocho easily out drank Inojin and Shikadai.

Mead poured down Inojin's chest as his head softly hit the table " I can not continue" he finished it off with a loud burp.

Sarada leaned on Boruto "you gonna take a shot at Chocho's title" her breath smelt of sweet cherry wine.

Boruto shook his head " no I can't handle my alcohol all that well."

Sarada patted Boruto's head clearly drunk " hehe your hair is so soft."

Boruto wrapped his arms around his drunk friend "alright let's get you to a bed."

Sarada smiled her beautiful yet drunken smile and Boruto helped up a staircase leading to the bedrooms.

Boruto looked around "oh yeah we never put you in a room."

A sudden warmth on his cheek made Boruto stop " did Sarada just kiss my cheek."

Giggles escaped Sarada's wine stained lips "why don't I just stay with you my prince."

A deep blush grew across Boruto's face " uh I'm not so sure about that Sarada."

Suddenly wine stained lips crashed into Boruto's lips, it wasn't elegant not something you would see a prince and a lady doing more like a sloppy kiss you would see in a whorehouse, but Boruto didn't seem to mind as this was something he had yearned for over the last several years.

After several seconds Sarada pulled back giggling as Boruto opened his bedroom door.

It didn't take long for a sudden soft crash of Sarada landing on the soft mattress to be heard.

A blanket was put over her and a warm hand gently brushed some messy strains of raven hair out of the elegantly beautiful drunken face of the now peacefully sleeping Sarada

Blue eyes gazed of the Lady of House Uchiha " she's so beautiful and she kissed me I just can't believe it. Yes it is beacause she is drunk and doesn't know what she is doing but still, it has been something I have dreamed of for years and tonight it finally happened, oh but she probably won't remember. Well at least I have had my first kiss now."

A sudden evil vile thought entered the young prince's mind " who say's it has to end with a kiss, Sarada won't even remember anything, I could use her body to achieve my long held lust for her."

As a princely hand reached towards her dress shame and regret washed over Boruto like a tsunami and his hand shot back to his side as tears of shame welled in his eyes " I am disgusting even thinking of taking advantage of and hurting not only a girl I have feelings for but one of my oldest and dearest friends what kind of sick freak does that, if I want Sarada I will just have to earn her love, and never think of hurting her in any way, shape, or form."

Soft lips kissed a pale forehead as Boruto rolled to the egde of his bed, wiping away his shame filled tears " I can't believe I even thought about doing that" a deep sigh came from the blonde prince " I am so sorry for almost hurting you Sarada."

Only a gently snore was the prince's response and Boruto gently smiled at the beauty sleeping before him and gently drifted off to sleep.

Alright that's the end for this chapter I hoped that you liked it. I'm putting a love story and a war story together in this one so I am hoping all works out. Anyway I can only say for sure that next chapter will be training and war preparations and of course the morning after scene to begin the chapter, just got to decide who finds the two lovebirds. Anyway I hope to hear some feedback from you I always want to know how improve my writing.

2: Helping And Training

Soft snores were the only sounds heard from inside of the prince's bed chamber, as the two occupants of the room had moved closer to each other in the night snuggling up close to one another, a few wild strands of blonde and black hair had mangled together, and a thick scent of sweet cherry wine surrounded the room.

Sarada gently awoke from her slumber head pounding from her hangover and the scent of wine rolling off her clouded her nose, but her eyes immediately drifted to the blonde prince who had a single arm draped across her belly.

Sarada tried to think her headache was not making it easy " ugh what happened last night, mother was right I shouldn't drink wine, now how the hell did me and Boruto get into the same bed together, wait we didn't no no Boruto is to nice he wouldn't do such a thing as take advantage of a drunk girl let alone his best friend, but lust can make even the nicest of men evil."

A gently hand prodded Boruto's ribs "wake up you baka."

Blue eyes revealed themselves as the prince drowsily lifted his head "oh hey Sarada."

A cute giggle was released from Sarada's mouth at his nonchalant greeting "hello my prince would you mind explaining why we are in bed together."

Suddenly Boruto shot up as he recalled the previous night's events " hehe you see you were pretty drunk and well it is the prince's duty to look after his subject's well being so I brought you back here so you could sleep it off."

Sarada started to vaguely remember parts of the previous night before gasping " we kissed outside your door."

A deep burning feeling of embarrassment greeted Boruto along with a heavy red blush " oh did I forget to mention that hehe sorry."

Sarada laid her pounding head against the soft pillow below her neck and smiled " it's fine Boruto no need to apologize I know I kissed you" the smile vanished from her face " we didn't do anything else after entering your room did we."

Shame flooded Boruto's memories of just thinking about what he almost did to Sarada but he shook his head " no you kinda of just fell on the bed I wrapped the blanket around you, kissed your forehead, and went to sleep myself."

A huge weight was removed from Sarada's mind and she brought Boruto in for a warm friendly hug " thank you for helping me out last night, oh and I think my first kiss should be more proper."

Before a single word could escape from the prince, warm soft lips pressed against his own and soft hands gripped the back of his head as Sarada passionately kissed her longtime friend, unfortunately for the two they were too preoccupied to hear the door open.

There was a sudden gasp and a cute giggle and in the doorway stood the queen and princess.

Two sets of lips rather reluctantly pulled apart in shock as the young friends had been caught in a rather strange situation.

Hinata was silent for a minuet " your father wanted to speak with you Boruto, and since you are here as well Sarada your mother has been looking for you, but judging from the smell you might want to bathe first."

Himawari giggled as she grabbed Sarada's " I'll get you a outfit Sarada, but I do have a question, does this mean I am going to be a aunt?"

Sarada's face turned crimson and Boruto grabbed Himawari and did the one thing he knew she hated and started tickling her rib cage " no your not going to be a aunt cause nothing happend last night."

Himawari was laughing out in ticklish pain " ok ok just stop big brother."

The tickling stopped and and Himawari and Sarada made way towards Hima's room and then to the hot springs to wash.

Boruto fell back into his pillow as his mother stood over him " now tell me the truth am I to expect that walking into your room that reeks of wine and see you and Sarada kissing, quite passionately if I recall and am just expected to believe that nothing happened between you two."

Boruto sat up looking his mother in the eye " I know it looks bad but all we did was kiss nothing more."

Hinata kissed her son's forehead " alright you seem truthful, but I still must tell your father" this caused Boruto to sigh.

The king looked down on his son with just a hint of a smile " son you do understand what Sasuke would do if he found out about this right?"

Boruto nodded " flay me, castrate me, tie me to horses and rip me in half, hang draw and quarter me, put me on the breaking wheel, impale me."

Naruto stood up "ok ok I don't need anymore answers, look I am going to let this incident slide for now, but I do have a task I need you to do, and I believe that you will enjoy it."

Blue eyes flashed upwards "what do I have to do."

The king sat back on his throne " it's very simple train Sarada in sword fighting."

Surprise took form within Boruto " uh say what now."

The king wrapped his arm around his son " war is coming to the kingdoms once again and to bolster our forces women are being allowed into the army, Sasuke believes that as soon as Sarada hears this she will want to join, and knowing how headstrong and independent she is I believe she will as well so while I begin preparations for the war you are to train Sarada to the best of your ability, I will give you four hours a day in our old training spot below the castle by the hot springs."

Boruto nodded taking in all the new found information " how long do we have father."

Naruto sighed " six months or so, so make sure you don't spend to much of your training time kissing alright."

A all to familiar crimson red blush splashed across Boruto's face as he walked out walking towards the hot springs.

Boruto knocked on the door to the ladies bath house " Himawari I need to talk to Sarada."

It was a few seconds before the door opened revealing a grinning princess "oh is it so important that you need to talk to Sarada while she is bathing, or do you want to try to get a quick peek."

Boruto gasped in mock offense " how dare you accuse me of such a act."

The grin grew wider on Hima's face " cause you always peeked on bathing girls till mother caught you."

Vivid memories of how the prince couldn't sit right for a entire fortnight flashed through Boruto's mind "look sis it is really important can you get Sarada please."

Himawari nodded closing the door and it soon reopened but instead of a crack it was fully swung open and there stood Sarada wrapped in a towel dripping wet and skin slightly red from the hot bath she had gotten out of " yes Boruto."

The sight of such beauty stunned Boruto in a near minuet of silence before a light tap to his head knocked him out of his stupor " you come here just to gawk at half naked girls or what."

Boruto shook his head "no it seems that our fathers have chosen me to teach you the art of sword fighting."

A wide happy smile grew across Sarada's face as she jumped into Boruto's chest hugging him " oh yes I have always wanted to learn thank you thank you for being my teacher."

Boruto quickly wrapped his arms around his friend partly out of getting another shot at hugging the pretty girl but mainly to stop her towel from falling off " I'm happy to but you might want to get dressed first then meet me in the armory."

Sarada nodded in excitement and turned around to gather her clothes her towel flapping around in the back caused Boruto to catch a glimpse of her rear causing blood to start rushing to a certain part of his lower body.

Himawari caught and pushed him away smirking " little pervert."

Boruto tried to muster a defense but only hung his head and walked off a certain part of him now pushing against his pants.

As the prince was walking away he heard something, it was out of place in the hot springs two people sounded like they were fighting and the sudden female shout of help made Boruto rush towards the sounds.

There stood a man trying to pry away a young woman's clothes.

The prince was quick to action hitting the man in the back of the head knocking him off the girl and Boruto proceeded viscously kick the man repeatedly, he could several of the man's ribs break and Boruto only stopped when the girl grabbed his leg and started to beg him to stop.

"Please my prince while I hate this man for what he tried to do, I do not want you burden yourself with killing him."

Boruto looked down at the girl and he had to admit she was pretty his eyes drawn to her unique purple hair.

The prince nodded and stepped back then reached down lifting the girl to her feet "go get the guards."

The girl nodded running off and as soon as she was out of ear shot Boruto delivered such a powerful kick to the man that several teeth flew from his mouth and it was obvious with his now twisted and broken jaw that the man wouldn't be able to speak in his own defense.

Soon the girl came back with two guards behind her.

Boruto looked down at the beaten man " arrest him and tell the headsman to sharpen his axe."

The guards looked at each other and the taller of the two spoke " my prince attempted rape isn't a crime that calls for execution."

Boruto did the one thing that he hated most, use his title " so we make a exception and as your prince you are to obey my word as law, so by the end of the day I want to see that man's head on a pike, I will send a message to all that attempt to harm other that it will not be tolerated."

The guards simply bowed and picked up the bloodied man and dragged him away.

Boruto sighed and turned to the purple haired girl " I am sorry for all that has happened to you" he extended his hand " names Bourto."

The girl gave a slight giggle, it was strange to her a prince acting so normal, she extended her delicate hand and grasped his strong hand "I am Sumire."

Boruto smiled " I am gonna be straight with you, there are many more guys like that out there, and there won't always be someone to save you, your gonna need to know how to fight."

"But" Sumire started but Boruto pressed a finger to her lips " I don't care if your a girl."

Boruto reached into his pocket and pulled out a silver coin and slipped it into her hands "you know where the Hygua fort is right."

Sumire nodded "yes by the river."

Boruto nodded "good, now there is a small stone building at the western edge, go there and a woman named Hanbai will be inside, she teaches girls how to fight, she's also my aunt so give her that coin and she will take care of you."

Sumire felt something bubble inside her as she looked at the prince, was it affection, no matter she hugged the prince whispering a soft "thank you" before running off.

Boruto smiled after the girl not noticing the hand creeping up his back grabbing his shoulder causing him to flinch and turn around to see his sister.

Himawari was grinning at her big brother " first you try peeping on Sarada now your saving washing girls my my aren't a conundrum."

Boruto playfully growled " I wasn't peeping ok."

Himawari laughed " Sure you weren't anyway Sarada went to the armory a little bit ago might wanna catch up with her."

Boruto hugged Himawari "thanks Hima" he turned around and started walking away.

Himawari smiled at his as he walked away muttering to herself " he better marry that Sarada one of these days."

Sarada looked over all the various weapons the royal armory had to offer gleefully smiling at the chance to finally learn how to sword fight.

Boruto walked in seeing his friend admiring the weapons " quite pretty aren't."

Sarada turned to Boruto nodding "yes they are, oh I forgot to give you something."

Arms wrapped around a surprised Boruto " thanks for doing this for me I know you don't have to."

Boruto smiled " it's my pleasure Sarada, but you didn't forget to hug me, you did that at the hot springs."

A smirked curled itself upon Sarada's lips "oh when you were trying sneak a peep at all the young women, but no that hug wasn't what I forgot."

"Then what" the was cut short by a passionate kiss from the young Uchiha.

When Sarada pulled away Boruto let out a breath " ya know if you keep doing stuff like that people are gonna suspect something is going on between us."

Sarada smiled her beautiful smile " look I know boys like to get kissed and your going out of your way to make sure I get the best possible training, so yeah I don't mind giving a reward that you will like, but don't think I will go too far if you want that type of treatment there are plenty of establishments in the city you can go to so you can relive yourself."

Boruto laughed " Sarada I would rather kiss you in front of your father than risk my mother finding out I went to a whorehouse."

A soft and cute giggle came from Sarada " it's funny how scared you are of the females in your family."

Boruto sighed "ok let's get to the sword training, first things first you need a fighting style and a sword that matches it."

Sarada looked at the prince " so what fighting style do you think would fit me."

Boruto circled his friend eyeing her characteristics, she was lean, her legs were long, her arms were skinny, and she was short in statue. Boruto smiled you would fight best utilizing speed, so I suggest a rapier, it's perfect for your small and lean size and if you can gain enough mastery over it you will be able to duel wield, Boruto smirked " so uh does that mean another kiss."

Sarada lightly punched his arm " your sister was right you are a little pervert" she paused "but I suppose I could be a good friend" she gently kissed Boruto again but for only mere seconds before pulling away " no more kisses till we are finished training."

Boruto nodded as he grabbed two swords one a longsword and the other a rapier "alright follow me."

The two walked back towards the hot springs till they reached a stone wall making Sarada look at her blonde friend strangely "uh Boruto this is just a wall what are we doing."

Boruto pulled on a rock and it slid out revealing a door handle " my father trained me down here after I kept getting distracted in the regular training hall."

The stone door opened and Boruton slid the loose rock back into place and the two made there way down the natural stone steps, the heavy door closing behind them.

A warm misty steam was floating in the air heating the room up causing both friends to start to sweat.

Boruto pointed to a small flowing stream " that will be the only cold water running here" he then sat down on a old wooden stool " the stone is smooth and with the natual hot springs it is warm as well, so we will train with no shoes better balance."

As Boruto kicked his boots off Sarada did the same " anything else my prince."

Boruto nodded "yes while we are training we must forget our friendship for get our titles and fight as if we were enemies, the swords a only for training so they are dull with no point but will still hurt like hell if you get hit with it, so are you ready to begin."

Sarada shook her head " I am ready, oh and no need to teach me the footwork I have read up on it."

Boruto took his stance " let's see how much of the Uchiha's natural fighting gift you have" he took a swing at Sarada.

The rapier took a hard hit as Sarada blocked and took multiple quick slices at Boruto all of which he knocked away " you were right I am a speed fighter" she said sending a furious barrage of swings.

Boruto knocked some away and dodged others, she was a true natural if Boruto wasn't as expertly trained as he was he would have at the very least been hit by now, Sarada only beginning could face off against most royal knights.

Boruto knocked away a sword swing and moved forward closing the gap between the two and they soon locked swords " let me give you a lesson Sarada never be honorable in a life or death fight" with that he spit in her face and hit a powerful sword strike.

Sarada fell to the ground one hand clutching her leg and the other wiping spit out of her face " so fight without honor huh."

Boruto nodded " may not be the right thing to do but it will keep you alive, now back on your feet we have a few more hours of training."

Hours of training ensured, match after match Sarada slowly but surely improved so much in fact she was even able to land a strike on Boruto, something that not even Inojin and Shikadai could do together.

Boruto sat on the stone floor panting " that's enough for one day Sarada, wow you are a natural just like I was."

Sarada dipped two cups into the lone cold water source and handed a cup to Boruto who eagerly drank it " thank you Boruto I found this quite fun."

Boruto laid back " we got six months of this Sarada, and by the end of it both of us should have advanced to the point we could challenge our fathers."

Sarada laid down next to him " that is a mighty big goal but I am game and not to mention we will need our skills in the war."

Boruto turned in surprise " how did you."

A soft sweaty finger pressed against his lips " I have my ways Boruto, now one thing before we go."

Sweat dripped off both of the friends as they engaged in a passionate kiss before Sarada pushed away "I suggest we go wash and rest now we have more training tomorrow" Sarada said walking away.

Boruto watched her hips sway from side to side softly saying " this girl is something else."

Well that concludes that chapter, sorry for the lack kf action but fear not next chapter the war begins. Oh and as for all the kissing Sarada isn't exactly falling for Boruto as of right now she thinks of him as a great friend and knows that guys simply like to be kissed.

3: End Of Training And The War Begins

Thick steamy mist hung in the air of the hidden training room with only the sound of steel clanging against steel to be heard, the two occupants were tired and bruised both being beaten down from one another, the steam in the room caused them to sweat profusely.

Boruto breathed hard, and sweat dripped into his eyes, "that's it for today Sarada."

Sarada panted and fell next to her friend causing Boruto to laugh " now that's not very lady like Sarada."

Sarada lightly punched his arm " oh shut up, anyway good match today."

A smiled appeared on the prince's lips " yeah, never would have thought how far we would come in six months."

Cool water ran through Sarada's hands as she filled a bucket and started to undress " yeah I feel as we can defeat almost anyone."

Boruto sat up slackjawed as he saw his friend toss her sweaty leather training shirt off, taking a deep breath he regained composer " hmm what exactly are you doing Sarada."

Sarada tossed asided her training pants leaving her in only smallclothes "I am gonna wash all this sweat off me, what afraid of a little nudity."

Boruto shook his head " no it's just that you usually just go an bathe after training."

The all to familiar cute smile appeared on Sarada's lips " maybe so but I know the war is starting soon and are training days are gonna end so I figured I would give you one last reward, if you have liked kissing me this last half year, I would figure you would like to see me in my nudeness."

"You know I would have still trained you regardless, but all the kisses and now this, it's pleasant surprise."

With that Sarada smiled and removed her smallclothes leaving herself as bare as the day she came into the world.

Boruto admired her body, her breast weren't the biggest but they were still a pleasant site, her belly had toned significantly since they had started train growing a significant amount of muscle, her hair was much longer now reaching her mid back, unlike Boruto she decided against cutting her hair citing she wanted a few lady like attributes, but Bourto's favorite part of her was and still is her face, round and flawless her big onyx eyes had always drawn him to her.

Sarada poured the cool water over her head washing away all the dirt, sweat, blood, and grim from her body "I am gonna get dressed now Boruto hope you enjoyed."

The prince could only nod as Sarada put on a fresh set of clothes " so uh what do you wanna do now."

Sarada walked over to her friend and licked her thumb wiping away blood from Boruto's mouth from where she had punched him earlier " you go get bathed and then meet me in the dinning hall, I wanna go to the city tonight with all our friends."

A smile creeped up on Boruto's face, the plan sounded quite nice, since he had started training Sarada he hadn't had much time for his other friends and it was only made worse by the fact that Sarada had told only her mother that she was training and Boruto had only his family to talk about it with as his father did not want it getting out that the prince was training anybody let alone a noble lady, in the ancient arts of swordsmanship, even though women were being trained in the army there was not a single lady who expressed intrest save for Sarada.

The two friends left and Boruto headed for the hot springs bathhouse and as he walked in he noticed Inojin and Shikadai.

Boruto undressed and entered the hot spring waving at his friends " hey guys how is it going."

Inojin had a shockes expression on his face " is the prince actually talking to us, what a rarity these days, typically he just likes to wander off for hours on end."

Boruto scratched his head "oh so you are mad about that."

Shikadai nodded " yeah we are you have barley said two words to us in the last six months and I thought with the war coming you would help us train at the very least but no."

Before Boruto could speak Inojin butted in " wait Sarada has been disappearing as well you two must be doing something together."

Reddness filled Boruto's cheeks " I don't know what you are talking about" it was easy to tell that the prince was lying.

Inojin laughed "you have been doing something with Sarada" he smirked "should we expect a new royal family member soon."

Boruto's face grew crimson red " it's not like that guys."

Shikadai got closer to the prince "then what is it like or do you not trust us."

Not being able to hold his secret Boruto broke " I have been training Sarada for the last six months, she wants to join the war and I was going to make sure that she was as well trained as I could."

A elbow softly hit Boruto's rib " and cause you love her" Inojin mocked and Shikadai joined in " and you want her to be your queen she can bear you children and you two can happily ever after" then the two started making kissing sounds.

As Bourto was about to speak a voice sounded behind him " making fun of the prince I see" the trio turned around to see Mitsuki.

Mitsuki was a strange figure often he would dissapear for long peorids of time and never talk about it, but he was also the one of the greatest archers in history so his friends never pushed him on it.

Boruto laughed " let me guess Mitsuki you've been here and there these last eight months explains why you missed the annual party."

Mitsuki dropped his towel and entered the hot spring "yes here and there but apparently you and Sarada had a lot of time together, I always knew that you two would make a good couple."

Water splashed up in the air as Boruto dropped his arms down "will all of you quit talking about me and Sarada."

Inojin laughed " fine fine we will stop talking about you and your lady love, so you wanna do something tonight, it's one of the last times we can before this war inevitably arrives."

Boruto nodded " yeah Sarada wanted us all to meet up later and go into the city for a night of fun."

Shikadai smirked "oh you want us all to split off and give you two some alone time" as Boruto let out a friendly growl Shikadai patted him on the back " don't worry we will try our best not to embarrass you two love birds."

The boys finished there bathing and after changing went to meet Sarada who had Chocho with her.

As the sun started to set and the cool night air washed in the group of six made there way into the city.

Sarada wrapped her arm around Mitsuki " well well well this is a very pleasant surprise seeing you Mitsuki, let me guess you have been somewhere far far away and don't wanna talk about it."

Mitsuki smiled " have I become that predictable, oh well it is nice to see you as well Sarada, you look much different than the last time I saw you, much more fit and leanly muscled."

Hand ran through silky hair as Sarada smiled " you could say I have been training, in a sense."

Soon the group found themselves at a tavern causing Chocho to smirk " anyone up to challenging to a drinking contest."

Inojin, Shikadai and Mitsuki agreed and Chocho turned to Boruto and Sarada "you two be the judges."

The patrons of the tavern took notice of who the teenagers where and surrounded as four mugs of mead was placed on a table.

Boruto stood in front of the table "the rules are quite simple whoever drinks the most wins, the entire mug must be emptied before being refilled" Sarada then took over " you are eliminated when you quit or the judge rules that you are in a possibility blacking out or death, the judge's word is final" both Boruto and Sarada said the final " now let this drinking contest begin!"

The contest started off fast all four of the competitors had taken down ten mugs of mead each.

It was Shikadai on his twelfth mug who barley managed to slur "I don't think I am in it anymore" before slumping over in his chair.

Boruto checked on his friend to see he was still conscious and merely trying to sleep "and Shikadai is out."

Inojin seemed to be slowing down after sixteen mugs and when he reached for his seventeenth he missed terribly and kept on missing till Sarada grabbed his wrist "Inojin is out" Inojin grumbled but accepted he would probably cause harm to himself if he continued.

The contest continued for half a hour longer with Chocho's family genes helping her continue and Mitsuki's near inhuman ability to drink and not become drunk or suffer any ill side effects.

After forty mugs of mead which would have made most men be dead, both remaining competitors stood tall.

But Chocho had a smile on her face " it's over I can not continue."

Both Boruto and Sarada looked bewildered at what they had just heard and Sarada looked at her friend " our you sure Chocho."

Chocho nodded and raised Mitsuki's arm " here is your champion" the tavern erupted drunken cheers.

Mitsuki smiled and looked at Boruto and Sarada "we got Inojin and Shikadai why don't you two go have fun" he said winking at the end.

Boruto glared at him but Sarada tugged on his arm and dragged him outside.

Sarada huffed and smiled "wow it is so nice to be able to hear clearly."

Moonlight and starlight was the pair of friends only source of light as they walked away from the tavern, and to Boruto seeing Sarada smiling under the moon and stars made her look even more beautiful than she normally was.

"Wow she is so beautiful under the stars, maybe I should confess my feelings to her, huh she probably already knows but still with a war looming I need to get this weight off my chest."

Boruto gently grabbed Sarada's hand " hey Sarada can we stop for a minuet."

Sarada stopped and looked at her blonde friend " yeah something on your mind."

As Boruto opened his mouth to speak a loud "Boruto" sounded from down the road.

Both Boruto and Sarada turned to see a purpled hair girl walking up to them and pulling Boruto in for a tight hug " it is so good to see you, I never got to thank you for gifting me a proper sword and armor."

Boruto sighed, he didn't need a pretty girl showing up as he tried to confess his feelings, but none the less hugged her back " you have really bucked up since you started training Sumire."

Sumire smiled and turned to see Sarada " oh lady Sarada it's good to meet you" she said extending her hand while still hugging Boruto.

Sarada smirked at how Boruto seemed to have mental meltdown at the situation, he was cute when he's flustered "oh Sumire was it, I believe I have seen you in the castle your one of the washer girls, so if you don't mind me asking how did you become friends with our fair and mighty prince here."

Sumire pulled away from the prince " oh about six months ago a man attacked me and I thought I was done for and Boruto came and saved me, then he went a step further he helped me train to defend myself sending me to his aunt Hanabi who was training girls before it was announced that girls could join the army, he checked up on me every now and then, and he even gifted me a sword and armor."

A cheeky smile grew on Sarada's face " oh well I expect nothing less from our ever so generous prince, you know he also helped me, trained me in sword fighting."

Sumire re hugged a now crimson red Boruto "oh you are going to make such a great king."

Sarada grew a mischievous smirked " oh yes he will he is the perfect blend of the king and queen" she then hugged them both causing Boruto to grow even redder than he thought possible.

As both girls nuzzled the prince's neck a loud horn sounded from the castle.

Boruto's eyes widened and looked down at the girls before him " they are calling for all officials to return to the castle" he paused as he soaked in the information " it can only mean that the has started."

The girls pulled away and Sarada grabbed Boruto's hand "we have to go back now to see what happened."

Boruto nodded and turned to Sumire "sorry to cut our visit short but we have to go."

Sumire gave a sympathetic smile "it's ok I know that the prince has his duties" she paused " but I do want to do one more thing" she quickly leaned in kissing Boruto for a few seconds before pulling away and running away.

It was only when Sarada started pulling his hand did Boruto move and Sarada laughed "come on I know for sure that wasn't your first kiss."

Boruto ran alongside Sarada " yeah it just took me for surpise that's all."

Sarada giggled " so uh who was better."

It was a dreaded question and luckily Mitsuki and Chocho carrying the drunken Inojin and Shikadai found them.

Mitsuki wrapped Shikadia's arm around Boruto as Chocho did the same with Sarada and Inojin.

The group carried there drunken friends all the way back to the castle only the drunken moans of Inojin and Shikadai made any noise, all of them were too anxious to find out what exactly happened.

As the group made it to the castle they laid Inojin and Shikadai down against the wall and proceeded onwards.

The dinning hall was beginning to flood with officals and Boruto split from the group to find his father.

Naruto looked up as his door was opened and his son entered " I take it you want to know what is happening."

Boruto nodded " calling all the officals in at the dead of night it can only mean that the war has begun hasn't."

There was only a nod followed by a minuet of silence before Naruto spoke " our naval fleet was attacked, come with me you will hear all the details in the dinning all."

The king and prince walked out to the balcony over looking the dinning hall and the room grew silent as they awaited the king to speak.

Naruto cleared his throat and began " I have been recently informed that the combined naval fleet of all five kingdoms has been attacked by Zetsu forces, the battle is still on going as we believe the Zetsu attempt a amphibious invasion along our coastline. I have already sent word for ten thousand calvary riders to make way to reinforce our costal forts, but I have no choice but to call all of our men and women who have volunteered for the army, to prepare themselves for I am sending all of you to different forts and to the coastline in case of a breach in the naval blockade. I can only give you tomorrow to prepare before shipping you all out."

It was silent for several moments after that before people began talking amongst themselves.

Naruto tapped Boruto's shoulder " I need to talk to you privately follow me."

Boruto nodded and followed his father into his chambers "so what did you want to talk to me about."

Naruto smilled at his son " I am giving you your destination, your mother asked me to keep you far from the fighting but I knew you would not accept that, so I am sending you to the fort we have in the Valley of the End, it is a key position the only route for a army to invade into Konoha, it is ten leagues or so from the coast and I fear the Zetsu will break through our naval lines."

Boruto looked up into his father's eyes " I won't let you or this kingdom down father."

Naruto smiled once again " I know that's why I am putting you in charge and giving you a legion of your own, Boruto I hereby name you general and commanding officer of the Five Hundred and First Infantry Legion."

Boruto was filled with excitment but had a question " this isn't because I am your son right."

Naruto shook his head " no, you are a natural born leader and one of the finest swordsmen I have ever known, which brings me to the second reason I brought you here."

The king leaned down and dragged a chest out and opened it to reveal a set of leather armor and a steel longsword, the king laid the contents on the bed " I have enchanted these with my dark magic, nothing will pierce through the armor and the sword will cut through any defense, your mother had me make sure you wouldn't get hurt but I would have given you these anyway, but now take these and go get some rest you got to prepare for a long journey."

Boruto nodded grabbing the enchanted items and heading towards the door before his father sounded one more time " I have also placed your friends in your legion even that purple haired girl, you will need people you trust during a war."

Boruto was excited with the news and cheerfully made his way back to his room setting down his enchanted gifts he felt the day's weight come down atop of him and he crashed down onto his soft bed, closing his eyes and slipping into the blissfulness of sleep.

The next morning Boruto awoke feeling the presence of a warm body wrapped around him.

When Boruto looked down he noticed the peacefully sleeping face of his sister, he gently poked her " Hima what are you doing in my bed."

Himawari looked up still nuzzled into her brother's neck "today is your last day here I want to spend time with you."

Boruto kissed her forehead "ah alright" the prince stood up and streched but he heard a quiet sigh and when he turned around he saw his sister sitting up having tears welling up in her eyes "Hima whats wrong, why are you crying."

Himawari latched onto her brother in a tight hug " promise you will come back, I don't want you to die, I don't know what I would do without you" Himawari then broke down into a full on sob into her brother's chest.

Boruto gently stroked his sister's hair "don't worry Hima I am going to come back" if Boruto didn't have enough reason to win this war already he did now.

Well that's it for this chapter, the war has begun and you will see the first battle in the next chapter. Also I hope you all understood my 501st reference.

: Arriving, Drinking, And The First Battle

Winter was in it's early stages, a thin layer of frost crunched under Boruto's boot as he lead a march of four thousand men and women to the fort at the Vally of the end, it had been a week since Boruto and his legion left and they were less than half a day from the fort, a messenger raven had delivered the message that a large force of Zetsu soliders had broken through a section of the naval blockade and was marching right towards the Vally of the End and unlucky for Boruto the Zetsu were due to arrive by the next night.

Sarada walked up to her long time friend " you shouldn't overthink it ya know."

Boruto smiled at first she stole his catchphrase " overthink what."

Sarada wrapped her arm around him " the battle that we will have tomorrow, I along with everyone else trust in your leadership abilities, under your leadership we won't lose."

Boruto looked into her onyx eyes " do you really believe that or are you just saying it to boost my confidence."

Sarada gave one of her cute smiles "Boruto if I wanted to boost your confidence I would just sleep with you."

Boruto coughed a bit causing Sarada to laugh " wow your cute when you freak out."

Boruto coudn't help but laugh " well when you say things like that, of course I would freak out a bit."

A fake gagging noise sounded behind the two and when they turned they saw Inojin smirking at them " so when we get to the fort are you two gonna need a hour or so alone."

Sarada laughed " like Boruto could last a hour."

"Yeah, wait what" the prince asked confused.

Sarada laughed and rubbed his shoulder " don't worry I am just messing around with, now let's get a move on."

The legion march onwards for several hours before finally arriving at the fort.

The back of the fort was nothing special ten foot high stone walls with a large wooden door, but with it squished between the large stone walls of a mountian made the rear defense power irrelevant.

The front of the fort however was much more defendable, the walls were forty feet high and ten feet thick of stone, there was a large moat twenty feet deep and a twenty foot long drawbridge, the field in before the fort once was covered in forest but was cut down for both supplies for the navy and so any Zetsu force would be defenseless against a barrage of arrows.

Bourto's legion met up with the thousand man garrison that was already there.

A familiar face showed up to Bourto as the commander " long time no see Boruto."

Boruto smiled " didn't expect to see you here Iwabee."

Iwabee scratched his head "yeah kinda just got sent here, been pretty boring since the war began but word has it tomorrow night will have a battle for this fort so I started some preparations."

Boruto looked around and noticed several large catapults with mountains of stone piled next to them.

Iwabee smirked "had those built a couple days ago and have been mining stone out of the mountain for ammunition, also we got a large amount of oil incase those Zetsu freaks want to be nice and warm.

Boruto smiled " good job, now let us rest up tomorrow is going to be a long day.

The sun slowly set across the horizon, as all but the few hundred sentinels went to possibly their last peaceful night of sleep, a bright shine of reddish pink burst across the sky for a few minuets before night rolled in.

Boruto stood over a wooden table with a map of the fort and outlining land before him studying all possibility's of the battle that was soon to happen, when his door opened to reveal a smiling Sarada with two goblets and a pitcher of wine.

Boruto looked at her smiling " what are you doing here Sarada."

Sarada set the cups down on a small wooden table and filled them both up with a all too familiar sweet cherry wine " we are going to drink tonight Boruto and we are going to loosen up and relax."

Boruto smiled at his friend's generosity " l appreciate this and all but I do have a battle to plan."

A chair screeched across the stone floor and Sarada sat down and started to sip at her wine " then by all means plan, run it by me I am a good strategist, but when you are done you drink."

Seeing this as his best option Boruto agreed.

It was a hour before Boruto could bring together a solid battle plan, without much knowledge of what type of seige equipment the Zetsu's had Boruto had to prepare for the worst, so he had set aside a thousand men by the drawbridge in the case it was forced down and to fire the catapults. The remaining four thousand men were set atop the wall prepared for any type of attempt to climb over the moat and onto the wall.

Sarada smiled as she pushed a full goblet into Boruto's hands " we have our plan now drink."

Boruto held his end of the deal and drank, sweet cherry wind pouring down his throat he understood why Sarada liked it so much, it was tasty.

A clearly drunk Sarada grabbed Boruto's hand " you know Boruto I am finding something a little unfair, you got to see me naked in the training cave but I didn't get to see you."

The wine started to set in, drinking so quickly while not being a good drinker meant Boruto got drunk quicker " I don't think so Sarada, you said that was a reward for training you."

Sarada let out a drunken laugh " oh but I bet if Sumire was here you would do it in a heart beat, huh I wonder if she's purple everywhere."

Boruto laughed " I think I sense a little jealousy."

Sarada pushed Boruto back onto the bed " I am not jealous."

Sarada crawled up alongside Boruto " take it back I am not jealous of Sumire."

Boruto could only laugh more " oh you are so jealous that she is threatening you."

Sarada brushed her hair back " oh trust me I have a trick or two" she leaned down and two sets of wine stained lips crashed together.

Like their first kiss it was not elegant but it was however very passionate the two lifelong friends continued to kiss for several minuets rolling around the bed.

Soon Sarada started to undress and quickly in her small clothes, her soft gently traced down Boruto's chest and down to his groin, gently probing the outside of his most valuable part, Sarada could not help but to be amazed by how long her friend was.

Her hand gently squeezed causing Boruto moan and Sarada to smirk " I guess the prince does have a mighty sword, now how well can he use it."

As excited at being so close to something he had wanted for years Boruto knew this wasn't right and gently pushed Sarada away " look Sarada I would love to do this, you really don't know how much but not while your drunk, I vaule our friendship too much to risk it over a few minuets of sexual pleasure."

The same cute smile that Boruto loved appeared on Sarada's lips and she kissed Boruto deeply.

After seversl minuets she pulled up for air " that was so sweet, I hope I remember all of this."

Sarada gently curled up next to her blonde friend before dozing off and gently began snoring.

Boruto still lighted headed from the wine lay his head upon Sarada's shoulder and he to fell asleep.

Hours later Sarada awoke, looking around she couldn't help but laugh " ah hungover in Boruto's bed again."

Sarada started to remember all the events of the previous night but only thing stuck in her head " there is no way he is that big, it must have been all the wine."

With the prince gently snoring away on shoulder, Sarada felt safe enough and gently removed the blanket that was atop of them and looked at her target and the outline itself was telling Sarada that she was not mistaken the previous night.

Sarada reached out towards the prince's groin content with her curiosity but a sudden "what are you doing" stopped her in her tracks.

Piercing blue eyes looked down upon Sarada " so you wanna explain yourself or not."

Sarada giggled " it't just last night I thought I was drunkenly mistaken with how well endowed you are."

Boruto blushed but before he could speak his door opened and Shikadai entered reading a report " hey Boruto we got some" he stopped dead when he looked up to see a half naked Sarada around Boruto, Shikadai started to back out " uhh I will just give you two some time, but the scouts came back figured you would want to read their reports."

As Shikadai left Boruto got out of bed and started to get dressed, he turned to Sarada " you know sooner or later we have to talk about what there exactly is between us, you can't just keep kissing me and falling asleep drunk in my bed."

Sarada nodded " I know, how bout if we both survive this battle we talk about us ok."

Before Boruto could say a word in response a loud crash erupted from the courtyard and Shikadai came running back in " it's the Zetsu the attack is beginning."

Boruto grabbed his enchanted armor and sword and started to put it on, "Sarada go get on some armor and meet us on top of the wall."

Sarada nodded running off as more crashes sounded off.

Boruto finshed putting on his armor and drew his sword and hurried to the wall.

Thousands of Zetsu's stood just beyond the moat, their white plate armor shining as the sun rose.

Boruto looked upon them " they don't look so tough, Mitsuki give them a welcoming present."

Mitsuki and several hundred of his archers locked their bows and released a flurry of arrows, the barrage killed dozens of Zetsu but there numbers were still formidable.

Boruto looked down to see Iwabee at the catapults " Iwabee, scorch them."

Massive stones were loaded into the catapults and doused in oil and ignited launching several flaming boulders into crowded masses of Zetsu ment for a high kill count.

But still the Zetsu pushed on and two massive steel ramps were being pushed towards the for they were tall and long enough to land troops on the wall.

Boruto turned back to Mitsuki " aim for the ramps do not let them reach us."

Arrows flew and zetsu's died but still the ramps moved forward.

Boruto turned to his men " draw swords and prepare for a fight, and remember we will fight with honor and die with honor if we mean to hold this fort."

The sound of swords being unsheathed filled Boruto's ears and he turned as one of the ramps landed on the wall, without a hint of hesitation Boruto ran to meet his foe in combat.

A sword enhanced by magic could do wonders, Boruto was slightly surprised as he completely bisected the first zetsu he came across, but his surpise turned to motivation and he started to cleave his way through dozens of zetsu's.

A zetsu sword simply bounced off Boruto's armor as he turned to cut the beast's head off, while the prince was fairing more than well the same could not be said for his men, several lay dead or dying on the ramp and many had been knocked off to the moat below.

As Boruto impaled a zetsu through the throat he called out "fall back to the wall."

The five hundred and first slowly but surely retreated not before receiving and giving plenty of more fatalities.

Sarada ran to the front to Boruto's side disemboweling a zetsu as she reached him " I don't know if you noticed but they have giant bow with a giant arrow with a chain attached to it I think they are going to try to bring down the drawbridge."

Boruto growled as he drove his sword through a zetsu's head and kept driving till it went out his groin " go back and tell Mitsuki to focus fire on it, stop it from firing at all costs."

Sarada nodded as she cut out a zetsu's throat and ran back to Mitsuki, and soon arrows pelted the the giant bow slowing the advance.

Steel clashing with steel was all Boruto could hear as he decapitated and eviscerated zetsu's, till he heard a scream, a very familiar one he turned to see Sumire bleeding from a leg wound and a zetsu standing over her.

Boruto was quick running up to the zetsu impaling him through the stomach and pulled his sword upwards till he split the foul beast's head in half and it's inner organs spilled onto the edge of the ramp in a bloody pile.

Boruto lifted Sumire to her feet and wrapped her arm around his shoulders as he helped her back to the wall.

Sumire collapsed as soon as the two reached relative safety "thank you Boruto, my debts to you only keep growing."

Boruto shooked his head " you owe me nothing" he paused and looked around before grabbing a crossbow and bolts from a dead man " here use this to take out as many as you can, when you run out go to the lower level."

Sumire nodded as she started to load the crossbow and Boruto made his way to Mitsuki and what remained of his archers.

Zetsu blood covered Boruto to the point it was getting hard to see and all he smelt was the foulness of the black blood that covered him "Mitsuki we need to get off the wall the zetsu are going to over run us."

Mitsuki fired a arrow from his bow striking a zetsu through the eye "fine let's go then."

In the mass retreat off the wall several from both sides were killed, blood poured down the side of the wall pooling in a mix of black and red.

As Boruto looked around seeing the zetsu's had the wall, the arrow fired piercing the drawbridge and started to tear it down.

Sumire was breathing heavy her leg wound bleeding harder "Boruto how are we going to stop them."

Boruto looked around thinking and thinking while his men fought to the death then it hit him " the oil put the barrels of oil in the catapult then aim it at the top of the wall and Mitsuki will hit it with a flaming arrow it should kill a lot of them."

Seeing no better option men loaded a barrel of oil into the catapult and Iwabee awaited his prince's command.

Mitsuki lit his arrow on fire and nodded to Boruto who only shouted "Fire!"

The barrel of oil flew through the air at such a speed it was near impossible to believe that Mitsuki even hit it but when he did a massive fireball engulfed part of the wall and the zetsu's only screamed in pain as the smell of burning flesh filled the air.

Boruto smiled as he saw his chance to turn the battle " keep it up burn them all of the wall."

Several more fiery explosions engulfed the wall and charred corpses started to fall down to the courtyard but the zetsu's retreated back down their ramps.

This moment of relief was short lived as the drawbridge was torn down and the remaining zetsu raced forward.

Boruto turned to Iwabee to ask for another barrel of oil but they were all out.

Boruto readied his sword and turned to his remaining legion " this is were this fight ends, let us show our enemies we have the right to live and that we do not fear them."

There were cheers and Boruto looked at Mitsuki " after the archers run out of arrows we charge".

Hundreds of arrows flew into the charging zetsu's and hundreds fell but the onslaunght of zetsu's continued.

Mitsuki fired his last arrow that went through the heart of a zetsu and drew his sword "we are all out of arrows."

Boruto looked over his legion one more time, looking at his friends and wondering if they would all make it, he pushed his sad thoughs away and ran towards the zetsu hoard.

It was chaos on the drawbridge blood both black and red splatter over humans and zetsu's, many bodies fell into the moat.

Boruto was in a frenzy slicing and hacking through zetsu's, he couldn't believe the amount of them.

Sarada ran to Boruto's side decapitating a zetsu on her way in " you know this isn't looking so good right."

Boruto knew she was right if they kept up like this would all die, "yeah I know" he swung hard eviscerating half a dozen zetsu's "we don't oil and our catapults would kill are own men I would love a idea right now."

Sarada thought and a idea popped into her head " we lure some of them in then use the catapults to bring down the wall, the drawbridge will collaspe and all those on it will fall into the moat and drown."

Boruto seeing no better option agreed and called for a retreat back into the fort.

Boruto and Sarada ran back to Iwabee at the catapults, Sarada was breathing heavy timing had to be perfect.

After all of the legion made it in the zetsu's swarmed inside and as soon as they reached the remaining humans Sarada hit Boruto's arm and he called for the catapults to fire.

It was spectacular to see all the boulders fly through the air smashing into the wall causing it to start to wall fall down right down utop the zetsus.

As Sarada said the drawbridge that had over a thousand zetsu on it broke and all those on it fell to their watery graves.

Boruto smiled and lead one last charge into the remaining zetsus.

It was a brutal and bloody finale to the battle only ending Boruto decapitated the final zetsu.

Boruto fell to the ground exhaustion washing over him and Sarada sat next to him "I think this is going to be a real pain to clean up what about you."

Boruto smiled and laughed, they had won the day.

Well that took a bit longer than I would have wanted but I hope you liked it and please tell me what you thought of the story so far. Oh and for all you folks that want to see Boruto and Sarada consummate there feelings next chapter it will happen but there will be a little twist.

5: Leaving, Marching, And A Looming Battle

It had been a week since the battle but the smell of burned and rotting corpses still filled the air.

Many Zetsu bodies that were trapped under the rubble of what was once a mighty wall could not be extracted and began to decompose.

Boruto held his nose "I thought creatures made from dark magic didn't decompose after death."

Sarada smiled as she was getting used to the smell "if you can't handle it let's head back inside, besides your father said he would be here with reinforcements at dawn no need to stay up all night waiting for him."

Boruto nodded his head "still can't believe he is just gonna close the pass and render this valley ineffective to any military strategies."

A soft hand rested itself on his shoulder "we fought hard for this place, but it would take far too long to rebuild and the king will save time and lives by closing the pass."

The cold from the night washed in over the two and the sky above boomed with thunder and a light rain started to fall causing them to shiver and seek cover.

Boruto smiled "you wanna head inside."

Sarada with water now coating her hair nodded " yes that would be very pleasant."

The two lightly jogged through the rain and into the dry dinning hall.

The dinning room was lightly populated as many men and women who had fought in the battle and survived it were still recovering from their wounds and many others were either resting or on guard duty.

Sarada turned to Boruto and gently gripped his arm "Boruto I was thinking that maybe me and you could spend sometime together" she then gave a flirty smile "I was thinking it would be something creative."

Boruto gave a loud gulp but said nothing as Sarada dragged him through the dining hall and into Boruto's chambers and through him on his bed, though he felt something strange and then heard a yelp "ow" said a soft voice.

Pulling away the covers of the soft bed Boruto and Sarada were surprised to see a shy purple haired naked Sumire laying there "uh hi you two I was well I didn't expect Sarada to be here."

Sarada smirked as she laid down on the bed as well "hmm well this wasn't what I was suspecting either but I think that this will be even better" Sarada then disrobed as well letting Boruto see both women in all their naked glory and Sarada eyed her prince "well Boruto we are all yours now take us."

Boruto felt himself become aroused as he as well disrobed "now I really didn't expect this to happen" Boruto then climbed into his bed and claimed both women for himself.

Hours later Boruto awoke with both Sarada and Sumire cuddled up against him and he smiled as he wrapped his arms around the women, but soon enough he heard a knock on his door and heard his father's voice "Boruto are you awake I need to talk to you about what is going to happen next."

Boruto shot up and quickly yet gracefully exited his bed without waking either of the girls and he quickly got dressed and answered his father's knock but not before covering both Sarada and Sumire with the blanket.

Naruto smiled softly at his son "I heard about your heroics in the battle I am proud of you."

Feeling pride Boruto smiled "well I was told to hold the fort and I did as I was told, now father what task do you ask of me next."

Sighing Naruto leaned against the wall "well Boruto as you know I am going destroy the fort to cut off the path into the kingdom, as such you and your remaining soldiers are going to be reinforcing Sasuke's army."

"Sasuke's army" Boruto said in surprised "I didn't know he had an army yet."

Nodding Naruto explained "yes he has fifty thousand soldiers stationed at the Flame River preparing for a Zetsu attack, oh yes more Zetsu have broken through your victory here was one of few many of the armies of all Five Kingdoms have been pushed back, the Water Kingdom's main island has been encircled and reinforcements from them have been cutoff. As far as we know all forces are being pushed back and we haven't been able to counterattack effectively, but Sasuke's army is going to change that a hundred and fifty thousand Zetsu are heading toward him and if we destroy them the army can go to the sea and relieve our crumbling naval blockade."

This news hit Boruto pretty hard he had thought his victory at the fort at the Valley of the End, but no this victory was only minor a simply delay of a Zetsu invasion of the mainland of the Fire Kingdom "I have only twenty five hundred men father all of whom are infantry I fear I won't make much of a difference with Sasuke's army."

This only made Naruto smile softy as he rested his hand on his son's head "son we need every soldier that we can get and under your command I believe that you can pull off a great upset, you make the march to the Flame River at nightfall it is a two days march to the northwest of here and when you get there you will have a day or so get ready for the battle."

With that Naruto started to walk down the hallway "good luck son I know that you will lead us to victory and we need that more than anything because if the Zetsu armies break into the Fire Kingdom and start killing the remaining civilians this will become a war of attrition and that is one we cannot win" then he walked out of the building and began to make plans to cut off the pass.

The news had hit what remained of the fort's garrison hard they had thought their victory would help help lead to a quick end to the war but they had merely only stopped a single small scale invasion and they roughly half of their soldiers doing it.

As the twenty five hundred soldiers moved through an open field under only moonlight and through the coldness of winter, Inojin spoke up "now why in the hell did the king not give us some horses and carriages so we could be transported quicker."

It was Mitsuki who answered him "well Inojin all of the horses are being used to either transport more needed supplies so the Fire Kingdom's armies can be equipped with weapons and armor as well has have food to eat, or they are being used in cavalry units so there aren't spare horses or carriages to transport a few thousand soldiers to a already large army."

Shikadai smirked "well said Mitsuki it was also the fact that we are only two days march to Sasuke's camp."

Inojin waved his hand "aright alright I get it but I have another question, why are going to the Flame River, I mean I get that Sasuke and his army is outnumbered three to one but he has powerful dark magic that's how he and the King won the last war so I am almost certain that twenty five hundred soldiers will make that much of a difference, like wouldn't we been more of use near the Lighting Kingdom border to assist with the the Zetsu invasion from there or get sent to the Water Kingdom to break the naval blockade and assist with the counterattack."

"Well" Boruto started as a light snow began to fall on top of the marching army "those ideas are good ones but the Five Kingdoms, well more importantly the four kings and the queen have set up plans and strategies for those situations and well we are of need at the Flame River, and remember Inojin if Sasuke and his magic can't stop this Zetsu army they will run rampant through several miles of farmland and villages and we really cannot afford to lose any more humans."

Now it was time for Sarada to speak up "true but I heard that an army of Zetsu landed on the beaches of the Earth Kingdom and they are being hammered. While the Wind Kingdom has faired the best their lands have been left untouched so far and their soldiers have been supporting the other kingdoms but sooner or later their beaches will be invaded as well. Then the Lighting Kingdom has been hit pretty hard and they have been regarded to only being able to fight and defend their own kingdom. In essence right now we can only expect reinforcements from ourselves and some from the Wind Kingdom and we can't spare many soldiers to other Kingdoms."

The marching continued for awhile mostly in silence as the soldiers felt uncertain in what the war's outcome will be, soon Inojin walked up to Boruto and whispered in his ear "that purple hair former washer girl has been shooting glances at you since we left the fort what happened between the two of you."

Boruto blushed as he remembered his time with Sumire "oh her nothing much I helped her out before the war began and I guess she is just nervous on how to approach me" Boruto half lied.

The snow began to fall harder now and Inojin stopped "alright seems like you but don't you think we should stop it is gonna get hard to move in this snow."

Sadly shaking his head which made some built up snow fall off Boruto softly said "no we cant stop till sunrise then we can only rest till midday and then we march till sunrise again."

It was a hard couple of days of marching but Boruto lead his soldiers into Sasuke's camp where the majority of them where given leave to rest while Boruto and Sarada entered Sasuke's command tent.

Sasuke looked at the two of them and gave an ever so slight smile "I see that you two have made here on time and I thank you your soldiers will be of great assistance to my plans."

Clearing her throat Sarada spoke up "and what would those plans be rumor has it that we are outnumbered three to one that the Zetus army will be here within a couple of days."

"That is true" Sasuke said in a somewhat somber tone before turning to a table that had a map on it "but you see we have geography on our side the Flame River won't be freezing over and it is too deep to cross without losing thousands of soldiers so the Zetsu's only course into the Fire Kingdom is through the bridge that goes across the Flame River."

"Which creates a chokepoint that will allow us to even the odds" Sarada said seeing her father's idea.

"Wait" Boruto said thinking of something "why don't we destroy the bridge I mean with the pass at the Valley of the End destroyed this bridges is the only other easy entrance point from the mainland Fire Kingdom to the shores, if we destroy it it would force the Zetsu armies to scale the mountains where we could wait and hit them with traps."

The idea was a sound one to Sasuke but it had a single flaw "it's a good idea Boruto and in normal times where the Fire Kingdom would only have to defend ourselves that would be what I would have done. However we need this bridge so we can transport our own armies to the shores for our eventual counterattack, and without this bridge or the pass we would be forced to either scale the mountains or go through the the Lighting Kingdom both of which would be far too time consuming."

Boruto hung his head slightly before going over to the map, he noticed that the Flame River stretched all the way up into the Lighting Kingdom and all the way down and through the mountains, it was a wide and deep river a natural defense no way the Zetsu's could cross it without the bridge "I have a idea the field in front of the bridge, we could cover it in oil and once the Zetsu get bottlenecked we fire flame arrows and light the Zetsu army alight then we send our heavy infantry into the bottlenecked Zetsu's and push them back in the field."

Both Sasuke and Sarada looked at Boruto with slight smiles as Sasuke spoke up "now that is an idea that could work these Zetsu are not the smartest bunch and they are only designed to kill so it won't be hard to lure them into this trap, I start these preparations Boruto but you and your soldiers rest up for now" Sasuke paused for a second "I can see why Naruto sent you to me you are an great tactician and leader."

Boruto felt pride surge through him being praised by such a military hero was something he hadn't expected, then Sasuke spoke again "now Boruto Sarada I had tents set up for your army's arrive go and rest we will need you at dawn to start preparations."

With that Boruto and Sarada took their leave and began to walk towards their tents.

Sarada brought Boruto into a tent with her "so it seems my father has taken a liking to you it seems he might take you under his wing"

Smiling slightly Boruto sat down on a bed "it seems like that may be the case though he wouldn't be taking such a liking to me if he learned what I did with his daughter."

Sarada smirked as she pushed Boruto down on the bed and climbed atop him "I guess I could see that but there is no reason he needs to know what the Prince does" then Sarada put her mouth close to Boruto's ear "though I am to be your Queen one day am I not, unless you prefer the washer girl."

Gulping Boruto felt uneasy, he knew that Sarada was the most likely choice to be his Queen, not only had he already deflowered her but she was his best friend, a master warrior not to mention she can be great at politics, hell at this point if Sasuke found out he had sex with Sarada he would either kill him or demand a marriage on the spot.

"Jeez Boruto don't look so scared I am only kidding I like Sumire but understand if we do marry you better not father any bastards that is a quick way to start a civil war for power" Sarada said as she gently began to kiss Boruto's neck "now how about we enjoy a little relaxing time."

Face red Boruto eyed the the entrance to the tent "Sarada we don't exactly have that much privacy."

Giggling Sarada sat up straddling Boruto "then we will just have to be quiet then now since you have deflowered such a noble lady you owe it to her fulfill the needs that you implanted in her."

With that Sarada then pushed herself back down and began to kiss Boruto hard while Boruto thought "well I am in the shit now aren't living so close to the edge well at the very least Sasuke will be too busy planning for the battle to bother checking in on us."

Hellooooo sweety I'm back again 🤣🤣🤣

I'm kinda have a bad week this week (it's only Wednesday I know 😭😭😭 but I don't think I can take anymore than this orz). So, in order to lighten up my feelings, may I ask you how Mitsuhide AND Hideyoshi would react if they were being swallowed together by the wormhole, along with MC (and maybe Sasuke, your choice xD) back to MC's era, 500 years in the future? I want to know what chaotic misdeeds those two gonna do if they have to live together for 3 months in the modern era until the next wormhole comes xD.

Thank you soooo much and have a nice day! 🍀✨

Helloooo dear😍😍 & welcome back✨✨😍😍🤗🤗😘😘💗💗! Thank you so much for the request😍😍! This sounds so hilarious & fun giving me so much entertaining content to write on🤣🤣! I am sorry to hear that you are having a hard week, if this work of mine will be able to help even a little in lifting your spirits, I will be very glad😍❤😘😘 & hoping you have an amazing week ahead😘✨. So here we go💃💃~

IKESEN HEADCANON⚔💗:

Mitsuhide😏 & Hideyoshi😩 reacting to staying in 500 years later in the future🏙:

One day, everything was going very well in Azuchi Castle🏯, as for once, Hideyoshi was NOT nagging at Mitsuhide🤯 or Ieyasu throwing snarky comments at Mitsunari😒or Masamune on the adventure of jumping off the cliffs🏊🏻‍♂️ or Nobunaga eating konpeitos🍬.

Wait, wait, wait, what?! CUT🎬! WHAT IS THIS HAPPENING📽? THIS CAN'T HAPPEN🙅‍♂️! CHANGE THE SCRIPT😠🤦‍♂️! "Director sir, this is calm before the storm😅!", said the staff member. "Oh okay, continue, let's see🤨!", the director let out a deep sigh.

*ahem* Back to the scene in Azuchi castle🏯-

Mitsuhide was busy teasing his darling little mouse. "Can you stop teasing me already😒?", you pouted☹, your cheeks red with embarrassment🙈😳. "My, My and why should I do that😏?", said Mitsuhide squeezing your cheeks like it were made of dango-mochi, so soft to touch😘💗, chuckling😆 at your super adorable face😍😘👩.

Oi, Mitsuhide😠!", said Hideyoshi loudly coming around in the Mitsuhide's garden. "Not again!", Mitsuhide slapped his forehead🤦‍♂️. "My mom is here, you better behave😂😝!", you said giggling as you went running towards Hideyoshi seeing this as a chance of escape from his hug actually teasing.

"Welcome, Hideyoshi!", you said greeting him with a big smile on your face😍✨. Hideyoshi patted your head in return with a soft smile on his face☺️. "Oi Mitsuhide, where did you suddenly disappeared without a word again? What are you plotting again? Do you know how much worried MC was for you😠?", said Hideyoshi glaring at the kitsune boi. "My, My, whatever do you mean , Hideyoshi😏?", Mitsuhide smirked.

"Mitsu----", Hideyoshi was cut off in between with a loud scream. "What happened, little mouse😟?", Mitsuhide frowned, looking at you, concerned. "Look! Look there! Wormhole😱!!!!", you shouted looking at the dark-cloudy sky. "Worm-what?", asked Hideyoshi, confused. As soon as they both turned to look at the sky, droplets of water fell on their face & finally heavy raining without as much as a warning⛈. "Oh no! Mitsuhide! Hideyoshi!", you screamed as lightning striked. They all suddenly found themselves in the air. "What is happening?! Hold my hand, MC!", shouted Hideyoshi. Instead of you, Mitsuhide grabbed his leg tightly, "I asked to grab my hand, not my leg😑! Well nevermind😒🤦‍♂️!". Mitsuhide smirked at him😏 & wrapped his other arm around MC holding her close to his chest.

And boom! They found themselves in 500 years later in the future.

"Mitsuhide! Hideyoshi! Are you okay😱?!", you asked looking at Mitsuhide still holding you unconsciously and Hideyoshi who was also lying on the ground passed out. "Mitsuhide! Wake up!", you said as you gently patted his cheeks. "Yeah, yeah, I am fine, my little mouse! I am so glad that you are safe😘😍💗!", said Mitsuhide looking at her with a smile on his face.

"Oww! Where are we😵💫?", said Hideyoshi as he stood from the hard ground and fell down again. "Oh God, Mitsuhide! Let go off my leg right now, ugh😫😠!", said Hideyoshi glaring at him rubbing his forehead. "Oh my dear friend, I am so sorry😏!", said Mitsuhide looking as unapologetic as ever trying hard not to snicker at him🤭. "Don't you dare laugh at me😡!", said Hideyoshi glaring at him. You were so relieved that they both were fine & scanned the surroundings😌😍.

"Guys! Calm down, look around, we are back in the future!", you said breaking their conversation. "WHAT😲?!", exclaimed Hideyoshi finally turning his head to look around his surroundings.

"Now get up both of you, it's so embarrassing, people are staring at us😳!", you said giving your hand to help them get up.

"Is this really our future?", asked Hideyoshi looking around, highly shocked & confused😱.

"Yes😍💗!", you said, feeling nostalgic to be back in future after such a long time. "MC!", another voice added in. You all turn to look at the source of the voice. "Sasuke!", you exclaimed. "Are you okay?", he came, looking at you worried. "Yes, I am fine but how are you here as well?", you asked confused. "Got swallowed by the wormhole! I estimated that we can return to Sengoku era after 3 months", he replied. "You mean to say that we are stuck here for 3 whole months😱?!", exclaimed Hideyoshi, horrified. You and Mitsuhide looked at each other surprised at the declaration😲.

"Once I will be able return back to Sengoku era, my boss will kill me for sure, I am so scared!", Sasuke said with a stoic expression adjusting his glasses😬. "You don't look scared🤨?", asked Hideyoshi. "Sorry Hideyoshi-san, my facial muscles can't express my emotions properly", said Sasuke. "I can understand, God of War will certainly rage a war if he don't find you by his side, Master Sasuke😏!", said Mitsuhide with a smirk. "Don't frighten me more, Mitsuhide-san😯, I hope my BFF Yukimura handles the situation well🙏🏻!", said Sasuke praying silently. "Bee🐝-what-now?", asked Hideyoshi confused at the term. "Don't stress your mind, It's a future word for best friend", you chuckled at him😆.

"Let's go my home for now, I will show you both around, Sasuke please come as well☺️🥰!", you said stretching your arms. "Here is some money for you I quickly grabbed from my home!", said Sasuke handing you money. You gave him a grateful smile😇😍. "What is that paper?", asked Mitsuhide, curious. "Oh, these are the currency notes that are used to purchase things!", Sasuke replied. "Now, I will go buy some food & buy them clothes, you see!", said Sasuke as he pointed out at their traditional dress & went inside the supermarket across the road🏪.

"MC, why are those crowd of girls especially staring at me🤔😐?", asked Hideyoshi, confused. "Don't you know, that your charms are irresistible, no matter the past or future😏?", replied Mitsuhide throwing a mischiveous wink at you😉, smirking at the girls. You caught up on his intentions and gave him a silent a thumbs up👍 with a evil grin😈.

"GIRLS, DON'T YOU WANT TO TALK WITH THIS HANDSOME MAN HERE FOR A WHILE?", you shouted in loud voice😎.

"Wait, what, MC?! Mitsuhide, what did you tell her😱?!", said Hideyoshi angrily glaring at Mitsuhide. "HELL YES🤩!", exclaimed the girls happily. "Hoooh, I haven't done anything, Hideyoshi, it's your fault for being so irresistible😏!", said Mitsuhide with a smirk while the girls surrounded him.

"Let him enjoy the company of the girls for a while, little mouse, let's go🤗😘!", Mitsuhide said while taking you away from the crowd of girls surrounding Hideyoshi. "I will not let you go you this time, snek🐍😡!", Hideyoshi shouted angrily. You both laughed 🤣 looking at Hideyoshi who was politely trying to get away from his fangirls😅.

"Wanna eat icecream till the time Sasuke returns? Try it🍦!", you gave him the icecream. You didn't notice when he ate the whole icecream in 1 bite as you were paying the money. "Owww!", screamed Mitsuhide as he clutched his head. You turned back to look at him, surprised. "Who told you to eat it that fast😨?!", you said while gently rubbing his temples. "Little mouse, it's such a small ball of icecream, I didn't know", said Mitsuhide with his eyes closed, smile on his lips💆‍♂️.

"Here you are, Mitsuhide😡!", shouted Hideyoshi as he came and grabbed his collar. "Because of YOU, I landed up in such a huge mess over there! It was so hard to get rid of those girls😫!", said Hideyoshi angrily. Mitsuhide just smirked at him😏. "Now, now, don't fight already again🙅‍♀️!", you said separating them again.

"Now we will cross the road and go to the supermarket! These things are used for transportation like horses in Sengoku & are known as vehicles & here are mostly cars, scooters! They are dangerous, so be careful", she explained. Hideyoshi nodded. "Ready?", she turned to her left but Mitsuhide was gone⁉️.

SHIT! THIS IS BAD NEWS😱!

"Where did he disappear?!", you wondered looking around. "He was just here😱!", said Hideyoshi as he looked around. Mitsuhide was purposely trying to cross the road swaying around while green signal zone is on to annoy Hideyoshi causing the commotion on the road😏. "What the heck are you doing, Mitsuhide?! It's dangerous! Are you trying to kill yourself😡?", Hideyoshi scowled at him pulling him aside.

"YOU😠!", said the traffic police officer to Mitsuhide👮🏻‍♂️. "We are gone🤦‍♀️!", you said slapping your forehead. "We are extremely sorry, sir🙇‍♀️!", you asked him for forgiveness bowing again and again. Mitsuhide looked at you, confused. You glared at him & pushed his head down to join you in apology. "Say sorry😒!", you whispered. "Why?", he asked with a smirk. You pinch him secretly🙄 and he said "I am sorry!" with a pout on his face🙁🙇‍♂️. On the other hand, Hideyoshi was laughing at him🤣 and Sasuke took the whole video of the chaos to add it in his vines collection📱, "Mitsuhide Akechi is seeking forgiveness from a traffic police officer, this is great! MEGUSTA😎🤩🕺!", said Sasuke with glittering eyes.

You finally went to your home along with everyone to relax after having a long day, but both of the warlords were extremely taken aback by the technology of the modern Japan😱😳.

You went to change your dress while Sasuke explained the technologies present inside the house. Your house was very cute and sweet, nicely decorated by teddy bears & your paintings. These poor bois were taken aback by even the simplest things such as television, fan, lights, A.C., kitchen, washroom, vacuum cleaner, etc. "Can we enter the world inside the T.V by breaking it🤔?", asked Hideyoshi with a very innocent look on his face. "Please, don't even think about it, Hideyoshi-san😐!", replied Sasuke adjusting his glasses.

You came outside the changing room wearing a shirt and shorts. Mitsuhide & Hideyoshi gasped at the sight while Sasuke just captured their expressions in his camera📸. "Just what are you wearing, MC😱?!", he removed his haori and covered you with it. "I always wear it like this in my home, Hideyoshi, stop overreacting🤣!", you said laughing giving it back to him. "Mitsuhide, what happened😯?", you waved your hand infront of his face. Mitsuhide.exe. has stopped working😶😳

As they both came out after changing their traditional dresses, your jaw dropped at their looks. These both looked so dashingly handsome in the modern wear, you were trying not to swoon over them😍 while Sasuke captured pictures, fanboying over the fact that the greatest warlords in Sengoku era were wearing the dresses chosen by him📸🤩😍.

"These dresses are very comfortable☺️!", said Hideyoshi amazed. "Very stylish indeed💁🏻‍♂️!", said Mitsuhide smirking looking at himself and turned to look at you to give a wink & flying kiss😉😚🥰. "YES! THAT'S MY BF🙆🏻‍♀️😍😘🥰!", you shouted instantly, then realized what you blurted out😱 and immediately covered your face with your hands out of embarrasment🙈, the tip of your ears, red😳. Cue Mitsuhide laughing at you patting your head🤣

"Finally, my phone is charged, I missed watching youtube videos, scrolling instagram, tumblr so much!", you said with such joyful eyes😍. But the terms, you used just now went over the heads of Mitsuhide & Hideyoshi like: W A T👁👄👁?

"I brought all the delicacies of the modern world, like pizzas🍕, french fries🍟, chocolates🍫, potato chips, noodles🍜 from the market for our first day here!", said Sasuke as he took out all the food on the table🥰. Mitsuhide didn't care as he don't have any sense of taste🤷🏻‍♂️ while you all were crying tears of joy eating such delicious food after a long time😭😍😋 even though they were unhealthy😛. "I am letting you go for this time, MC but you should take care of your health😊!", said Hideyoshi looking gently at her. "Yes, I will!", she nodded☺️. "Masamune sure is losing a great deal of fun & delicious food here!", you giggled😂. "He must be jumping off the cliffs definitely right now!", Mitsuhide smirked😏. Cue Masamune sneezing in Sengoku, "ACHOO! Did I catch cold? Well jumping from this huge height was definitely fun this time!", he grinned like a tiger, soaking wet standing in the river🐯😁.

Sasuke went home after dinner while Mitsuhide and Hideyoshi went together with you to your parents' home next day😍.

You had a very emotional reunion and you explained everything to them about your journey in Sengoku era😭🥰🤗😍. Hideyoshi couldn't remember the last time, he had seen Mitsuhide who is a total nervous mess & stuttering the words out of his mouth infront of your parents😳😲😱. "Relax, Mitsuhide, they are only my parents, they won't kill you!", you said rubbing his back gently, chuckling softly😆.

"I-I would like to thank you both so much for bringing this angel😇 into this world and I promise to keep her safe🤗 and love her😘 with all my heart💓, lifelong💖! Please give us your blessings🙇‍♂️!", Mitsuhide bowed deep infront of your parents requesting for your hand and you were so happy beyond words, only tears roll down your cheeks as you gave him a very beautiful & happy smile😢😘🥰❤. Your father came to Mitsuhide with a very stern expression & you both were scared for a moment but he smiled and patted his shoulder, holding his hand, "I give my precious princess like daughter👸🏻 to you, take care of her for me👨🏻‍🦳!". Mitsuhide nodded with a grateful smile and eyes with unshed tears🥺💗. Your mother was very touched & happy with her son-in-law👩🏻‍🦳, "He is such a sweet boy😍😘❤!". "EXCUSE ME, SWEET😱😳?!", Hideyoshi exclaimed, shocked. "My, how rude😏!", smirks Mitsuhide. "Well, he is atleast very sweet to me, Hideyoshi😍😂!", you giggled and Hideyoshi sighed while everyone laughs together🤣.

In a week, you and Mitsuhide were married🤵🏻👰🏻💍💏 in the modern day with the blessings of your family👫🏻 and close friends👬🏻👭🏻. You were the most beautiful women in his eyes😍💓 while he was the most handsome man in your eyes😍🙈. You both were such a lovely couple💑. Obviously, your friends didn't know of Mitsuhide & Hideyoshi's real identity. It was the happiest of day of both of your lives✨🎊🎉💯. Cue Hideyoshi sobbing in the corner while Sasuke is busy comforting him😭😭.

Next day, you took your dream job in your favourite design company even if if was for a short while and both Mitsuhide & Hideyoshi were super proud of your talents👏🙌💯😍❤. That night, you fell asleep working on the table and it was past midnight. Mitsuhide carried you to your bed where Hideyoshi was sleeping😴. Mitsuhide kicked Hideyoshi out of the bed and placed you down gently on the bed and tucked you in properly.

Cue Hideyoshi screaming- MITSUHIDE! WHAT THE HELL😡!? Mitsuhide: Shhhhh! She is sleeping🤫. Poor Hideyoshi sleep on the sofa from that night but he didn't mind as it was also very much comfortable😍❤.

Well, for your own good and never in your right mind, give the duty of kitchen to Mitsuhide. I repeat- NEVER🙅‍♀️! Once Mitsuhide tried to impress you with his cooking everything on his own, your kitchen was destroyed as a result. Stick to making tea please, Mitsuhide, you are an expert in it🍵!

Also once Hideyoshi in the same way tried to impress you by cleaning the house on his own when you and Mitsuhide went together to the restaurant. He made a 100× times more mess of the house than it was already😱. That day, Hideyoshi was nagged by you🙍🏻‍♀️ for the first time while Mitsuhide snickered🤣 & Sasuke as usual made a video out of this epic incident to add in his vines collection💯📱. From next time, Hideyoshi made a mental note to help you only in your presence.

R.I.P. SASUKE's WALLET.

"I am so sorry Sasuke, I promise to pay you back for everything once I get my salary🙏🏻🙇🏻‍♀️!", you said with a apologetic look. "Don't mind that, I am happy that MY money is used to help my favourite warlords of Sengoku🤩🥰🤗🕺✌🏻. MC: Sasuke, W A T🙄. Hideyoshi: eye twitch🤨. Mitsuhide: smirks😏. Sasuke: 👁👄👁

Mitsuhide is a big prankster as usual, walking danger indeed, he takes his pleasure in Hideyoshi's misery😈😏. He would always play pranks on Hideyoshi like for instance, switching off the lights while he is in the washroom🛀🏻, yes, you heard it right. Cue Hideyoshi screaming: MITSUHIDE! LET ME TAKE A BATH IN PEACE! GODDAMNIT😡! Mitsuhide would definitely click the worst pictures & boomerang of Hideyoshi to annoy him 24×7.

You along with Mitsuhide, Hideyoshi, Sasuke would often go to the cafe together to eat, dance, sing, relax together🕺💃. Hideyoshi is a very good singer🎤 & is very popular in cafe so he is approached by many girls with love confession & Mitsuhide tries to makes his situation worse😈 but you stop him with a kiss😘 on his cheek😍❤ while Hideyoshi politely tries to get away from his fanclub yet again.

Cue-Hideyoshi passed out of drinking too much😵🍻. "Nobunaga-sama, don't eat konpeito....it's bad for your own health.....Masamune, don't run...in the hallways.....Mitsunari, eat your food.....Ieyasu...be nice...", murmured Hideyoshi in his sleep, even crying tears as he misses other warlords. "Awww, he is so sweet!", you said wiping his tears with a soft smile your face. "He worries about everyone too much", said Sasuke with a soft smile remembering his friends in Kasugayama Castle😊. "Guess, we have to carry him home again😆😍!", you said looking at Mitsuhide who nodded with a smirk, "Now, can I leave my best friend out here alone, my little mouse😏?", asked Mitsuhide. You and Sasuke both shake your head😂.

You all would often go to the amusement park together. Mitsuhide would definitely buy you all the the plushies & teddy bears of the shop winning them in a shooting game😍😘😏🔫. The shopkeeper got so suspicious of him but he couldn't say anything to him as he has no proof🧐. Hideyoshi will initially be against the idea of rollercoasters but will be dragged along by Mitsuhide. You and Hideyoshi will shout all the time but you definitely enjoyed it😱, while Mitsuhide & Sasuke sat through the whole ride like it was nothing🤷🏻‍♂️. "I made the video of you..", said Sasuke with a proud expression. "SASUKE, DELETE IT😱😠!", Cue you and Hideyoshi chasing him but he kervanishes while Mitsuhide peacefully sips his tea😌🍵.

Mitsuhide will definitely kiss you💏 on the top of the ferris wheel🎡 after hearing its significance from Sasuke😎as he ships you both already😍💯, you will be taken aback with surprise but would hug him out of happiness💗 fufufufufu. While Hideyoshi will be dragged around by Sasuke to all the places except the ferris wheel, he would be concerned about your whereabouts yet Sasuke wouldn't tell him. Hideyoshi: 🤨, Sasuke:😬.

You all would also go in the haunted house👻. The most terrified person would definitely be Hideyoshi 😱 even though he wouldn't admit it🤐. Mitsuhide & Sasuke will think them as a big joke while you will stick close to Mitsuhide & him playing your hero whenever you feel scared of the ghosts👻😏😎. Cue Sasuke dancing with the skeleton☠, MC: Sasuke, the heck are you doing👁👄👁? Mitsuhide will definitely scare the already sweating with fear Hideyoshi using his horrifying pranks available in the haunted house😏☠👻. Cue Hideyoshi screaming like a girl😱.

Mitsuhide will definitely take part in many shooting competitions and undoubtedly win them all🔫He is the best marksman afterall💯 What do you expect😏? On the other hand, Hideyoshi take part in singing competitions making all the girls swoon over him🎤🎶, afterall they cannot stay inside the home everytime, now can they😂?

All of you would travel to many places like temples, places of historical significance, well-known shopping destinations, hill stations across Japan with Sasuke as the tour guide, as usual🕺💃😎💯⛩🏙 Mitsuhide & Hideyoshi were thrilled to travel in bullet train & aeroplanes for the first time in their lives🚅🛩😍💗.

Mitsuhide & Hideyoshi would be the great fan of animes. Hideyoshi loves the anime containing lots of emotions😍❤🥰. Mitsuhide on the other, loves the anime involving a lot of psychology & suspense😍❤🥰. Hideyoshi would cry his eyes out watching anime movies like a silent voice, grave of the fireflies, hotarubi no mori e, I want to eat your pancreas, your lie in april while you and Sasuke comforts him💗, he loves reading manga as well & his favourite is Kyou no Kira-Kun❤🥰😍😢. He will definitely ask Mitsuhide, "How the heck do you exactly look like *Tomoe* from Kamisama Kiss🤨?" Mitsuhide be like: Who👁👄👁? On the other hand, Mitsuhide would absolutely enjoy watching popular anime hits like Death note, Attack on Titan & Code Geass🕵️‍♂️.

Mitsuhide would always protect you and if any man tries to look at you, one stare from him🙂 and they will ran away fearing their lives 😱 while Hideyoshi would always help you out at home😍🤗, he would be also always nagging at you to take proper care of yourself🙍‍♂️, while you be like: Okie dokie, big brother😍🤗!

EXTRA UNDER THE CUT~

AFTER 3 MONTHS:

AZUCHI CASTLE:

"How did you gain weight, Nobunaga-sama? You ate a lot of konpeito in my absence, right?! Give me your jar, right now! No konpeito for 3 months!, Hideyoshi scolded Nobunaga😠.

"Noooo! Don't order me around, Hideyoshi😱", said Nobunaga as he tried to hold the jar safely in his arms but Hideyoshi successfully snatched it away from him.

"Send him in future again, MC, please! I just want to eat konpeito☹🍬!", Nobunaga pleaded. You shrugged🤷‍♀️.

"MILORD, NOOOOO🙄!", shouted Hideyoshi with a groan.

"HIDEYOSHI! TAKE CARE OF MITSUNARI FROM NOW ON! I CANNOT TOLERATE HIM ANYMORE😡💢!", shouted Ieyasu almost throwing a table at him while Mitsunari blinks innocently.

"IEYASU, NOOOOOO!", exclaimed Hideyoshi, horrified😱.

"I seriously missed loads of fun in future, isn't it MC🙁?", asked Masamune after listening to their time in the future. "Yes, obviously but I missed this fun as well🤣!", said MC laughing. Mitsuhide smirks standing besides her and nodded😏.

KASUGAYAMA CASTLE:

"I missed you so much bro😭😭😭😭😭!", cried Yukimura hugging Sasuke.

"I know right, I miss you too my BFF, I know you had a hard time controlling Shingen-sama & Kenshin-sama at the same time", said Sasuke comforting him🤗🤗.

"That man doesn't listen to me, always eating sweets & flirting around, GROSS🤢! That god of war gave me so much trouble, always attacking me out of nowhere!",complained Yukimura😭😠.

"That's rude, my boy😒! I am glad you came back Sasuke!", said Shingen with a smile. Sasuke high-five with him😂🙌.

"DIE!", said Kenshin unsheathing his sword⚔.

"Kenshin-sama, I just came after 3 months and you are trying to kill me now!", said Sasuke barely avoiding his strong blow.

"I AM KILLING YOU BECAUSE YOU DARED DISAPPEAR FROM ME!", said Kenshin as he puts his sword against Sasuke's neck.

"It's time to ker-vanish!", said Sasuke adjusting his glasses.

"Don't you dare run away from me!", said Kenshin and endless chasing begins....

I hope you all enjoyed reading it 😍❤! Thank you so much😘😘💗💗! Likes, reblogs, comments are appreaciated ❤😇😘.

i have come to ask for sasuke with a pregnant wife if ur cool with that, 😘

Okay sooooo—this is my first time trying anything like this so if it sucks I’m so sorry and plz don’t hate me.

-so you’re pregnant and just found out.

-it’s obviously Sasukes because...¯\_(ツ)_/¯

-“how am I going to tell him?” You ask TenTen because she can keep a secret.

-you tell him by writing him a letter and putting the pregnancy test in a box.

-so I imagine him opening the box and reading the letter. He would be so shocked and terrified at first because he feels like he was careless.

-he would find you and want to talk about everything.

-he would go to the doctors appointments and be that strong silent type.

-slowly you would find signs that he was getting excited. Things like finding onesies that he had bought and stuffed animals that he would think a baby would like.

-he always reminded you that you had to take care of yourself. He would be pretty stern about it because that’s a baby Uchiha and it will be the best. (Also because he loves you and wants to see you happy)

-he would be blown away the first time he feels the baby kick. Like he can’t believe that he actually made a life and made something amazing in this crazy world.

-as your bump grows he would definitely want to touch it more.

-he would talk to the baby when he thought you were asleep because he didn’t want to show that he was vulnerable.

-the nursery would be simple but so perfect. Beautiful crib, bassinet, rocking chair in a dark wood.

-you both decided that you didn’t want to know the baby’s gender until it was born.

-when your water broke he LOST his mind. He would be the guy to drive like a maniac to the hospital even though you only live like 5 miles from it. 😅 (he’s nervous)

-he would stay in the room the entire time and be strong as hell. (Except when he cried seeing your son for the first time)

-he would definitely be the husband to let you rest and would hold the baby as much as possible because he had to keep him safe.

-Sasuke would try so hard to be a good father despite everything he went through as a child.

I hope this was good for you anon sweetie 🥺❤️

I wil never stop falling in love with your writing, I'm reading BtB again and I can't even express my feelings every time I read it, you make the characters so alive!

I'm so glad that a person like you exist, because for me nobody can describe Neji like you (I can't find the right words, I'm so sorry I hope you understand anyway what I mean)

I want to ask you something bc I'm really curious, there is some "scenes" that you wrote but never published?

And I want to tell you that I have a tattoo now about Neji and Shikamaru and every time I look at it I remember your series!

Thank you again if you will have the time to answer me, please have a good day and stay healthy💓

Hello, my dear! 💗 Thanks for another wonderful message. I hope that my response finds you safe, well, and in good spirits.

I wil never stop falling in love with your writing, I'm reading BtB again and I can't even express my feelings every time I read it, you make the characters so alive!

Thank you so much for that...the characters are everything!

I'm so glad that a person like you exist, because for me nobody can describe Neji like you (I can't find the right words, I'm so sorry I hope you understand anyway what I mean)

Oh wow, now that is one HELL of a compliment. I am chuffed beyond words that you enjoy my portrayal of our dear Hyuuga Neji. I hear you -- and I'm very touched you feel that way. 💗

I want to ask you something bc I'm really curious, there is some "scenes" that you wrote but never published?

oOoh, cool question. Yes! Though I'd have to go digging around my old files to try to locate them. There were some Sasuke ones, a couple with Shikaku, a Naoki one, a Neji and Gai one...(I'm struggling to remember the first BtB story ones that I cut...though to be fair, if I had the time and energy and creative chakra, I'd want to do a total rewrite on the first instalment -- not changing the story in anyway, just kind of remastering it given how much my writing changed and developed as I grew as a writer).

And I want to tell you that I have a tattoo now about Neji and Shikamaru and every time I look at it I remember your series!

WHOA! NO WAY!? That's fantastic! What a way to pay homage to those two characters 💗. Oh bless you! I'm super happy and very honoured that the BtB Series comes to mind when you look at it...that's so beautiful, truly.

Thank you again for dropping me this message, sweetie, and for your warm and uplifting words for a series that lives on in the hearts of those who both read and revisit it as you do. I appreciate that immensely and am so grateful to hear from you and have such profoundly wonderful support. Thank you! 💗

I hope that 2022 is treating you kindly as we shimmy out of January into February! Stay safe and well...and may all your days (especially the tough ones) bring you some measure of joy, no matter how big or small! 💗

ROLE PLAY | A SasuSaku FanFic One Shot

Late for these! But here’s my fic for SasuSakuSara Weekend 2020 Day 2 (In Another World/Connected Feelings) and #SasuSakuTwitFest2020 Day 6 (Marriage / "Idiot! We're married.") | @sasusakusara2020

Here's a maaaajor revision of one of my first fictions back in 2009 for a different ship. Ya gurl cringed on her old way of writing, HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Hope you enjoy this!

-A

–––

“Come on, dear. Please stop..."

She just wouldn't.

"Papa! P-papa!" She would just repeat that all over again.

Sakura paced towards Sarada’s crib, planning to carry her with the hopes that her tantrum would subside. But the moment she reached out to her—

“I want Papa now! Please, Mama!" She croaked with her tiny voice. "I miss Papa!" 

The Uchiha matriarch almost fell on her knees as her daughter continued to cry out.

She sat on the bed beside her crib and leaned near her. If only an explanation of many words would be understood by a three year old. "Sarada, sweetie...Papa isn't coming home."

"Why, Mama? Why?" Little Sarada paused, but her tears were nonstop.

Sakura looked away. She struggled to find the right words, trying to think of an excuse about the rash decisions that led to their current situation now. She pinched the bridge of her nose. It shouldn’t have come to this, to the point that their daughter would be affected.

“Sweetie, just...calm down, please."

Sarada stared at her with glassy charcoal eyes, tears still streaming down her cheeks, and then she cried, “Mama, I want Papa here! Here! Here!"

Her heart clenched at the sight, she had never seen her baby this hurt. And what pains her the most was the fact that it was because of her and Sasuke. 

Then, the idea finally settled in...

“Okay, okay. Calm down."

Sakura got her phone from the table on the other side of the bed. Her hands were shaking; her tears almost coming out. I didn't have to do this...

She didn't have to go to her list of contacts anymore just to look at his number, besides she memorized it, just like how she memorized every single detail about him.

She took a deep breath before pressing the call button. One ring, two rings, three rings...no answer. She cancelled, and then called again, with much conviction this time. It was actually difficult for her to concentrate as Sarada's muffled cry continued to fill the room.

"Ssh..." She told her, as if that would make sense.

"Hello?" Oh, gosh. What am I going to say? Sasuke finally answered his cell phone. It was apparent that his voice was serious, angry even, because who in their right mind would call someone at 2AM?

"Uhmm...good morning, Sasuke. Sorry." She paused. "But this is...this is about Sarada."

"Huh? What happened to her?" There was a noticeable change in his voice, from an angry husband to a concerned father. And it was enough to calm Sakura's nerves as she continued to speak with him.

"She just wouldn't stop. She—"

"P-papa!" Sarada screamed.

Sakura’s head fell on her hand. There was no point hesitating now. "She wants you to be here, Sasuke." Tears trickled down her face, but she kept her composure for she didn't want to sound like she’s crying. I didn't want to see him yet...

There was silence on both lines aside from the ringing cries of their daughter. Sakura didn't know if Sasuke's still on the phone. Every tick of the clock increased her anxiety about what Sasuke might be thinking at the moment, for she didn’t want him to think that she was using their child to force him to come back. They both needed this space after all.

She heard him sigh after a moment, "Okay. I'm coming over."

"T-thanks," she muttered, and then hung up.

A sigh escaped her lips as she turned to check on Sarada again, whose cries have finally subsided into hiccups. "I'm sorry, baby. Just wait a little longer."

Sakura stared at her, realizing for the millionth time that she and Sasuke were able to create such a beautiful human being. Sarada’s face resembles hers, but her hair and her eyes were the same as Sasuke’s, making her the spitting image of her handsome father. There was no question to that. Never will she be able to forget her husband after all, whatever the circumstances would be. Besides, she didn’t want to forget.

Moments later, she then heard a familiar sound of an engine stopping in front of their house.

"Wait here, Honey," she said as she made sure Sarada’s crib was locked. The kid was still in tears, but she had high hopes that it would change in a little while.

Sakura went downstairs to open the door, but before that, she glanced at the mini monitor of the CCTV camera for their front porch, just to make sure it was Sasuke.

"Thanks for coming," she said, avoiding his face as she opened the door. There was no response. "She's in the bedroom."

Sasuke went straight to their bedroom with her following suit. It didn't matter anymore if her anxiety about what Sasuke might be thinking was reaching its peak right now, as long as her baby would finally be happy after crying her heart out for hours.

"Sarada?"

"Papa? It's you! Papa, it's you!" Sakura finally felt relief at the sight of the apparent joy on her daughter's face. Sarada was standing on her crib now, with her arms raised expectantly towards her approaching father.

"Aa. It’s me." Sasuke instantly carried and embraced her tightly. "I missed you, Sarada." Well, it's been more than a week.

Tears streamed down Sakura's face once more, but much thanks to Sarada's bib that she was holding, she was able to wipe it away before Sasuke even noticed. Ever since Sarada was born, it always warms her heart seeing Sasuke with their child. There was no doubt that Sarada was precious to him, that’s why it hit differently seeing him with her again after what transpired weeks ago.

Sarada has completely stopped crying now, but her face was still wet with tears so she went near her, with her face towards Sakura as she wrapped her small arms around Sasuke’s neck. Her father soothingly patted her back.

With the bib on her hand, Sakura wiped her face and smiled at her, relieved that her baby is now relaxed in her father’s secure arms. 

The young Uchiha returned the smile before slightly pulling away to face Sasuke, she said, "Papa, please stay..."

Stunned, Sakura took a step back and waited for her husband’s response. She couldn’t see Sasuke’s reaction for his back was towards her, but she did notice the halt of his hand’s movements.

Sasuke remained silent, causing Sarada to start tearing up again as she stared at him. "I don't want you to go again, Papa." 

"Sssh. Don’t make that face." He wiped Sarada’s tears through his thumb. "Your mama's here, there's no need for you to worry."

Sakura almost scoffed. There is, Sasuke! If I were the baby, I would really tell you that I need you for you are my father!

Then the hissy fit began again. "But...but papa...I want Papa here! I want Mama here! I need papa and mama here!" She exclaimed, catching both her parents off guard.

Sakura noticed that Sasuke tilted his head to glance at her. But her gaze fell to the floor, knowing that it’s still up to Sasuke if he would finally decide to go back home. He already got the space that he needed, but Sakura wasn’t sure if the kind of space he really wanted was long term. Her heart constricted at that thought.

Sasuke sighed after a moment. "Ssh. Okay, okay, don’t cry, Sarada...we'll be here for you," he whispered.

Whether that was true or it was just a trick, it was thankfully effective in calming Sarada.

Sakura went outside the room and proceeded downstairs to give the father and daughter their time with each other; when suddenly – Oh, God. Thank God Sasuke is here! – she saw from the bottom of the staircase that the knob of their front door was visibly shaking.

She silently walked towards the locked door and glanced at the mini monitor by the wall which she has left turned on when Sasuke came. She then gasped. A guy in black was on the other side of the door, with his face covered with black cloth too. As he continued to try opening the door with whatever tool in his hand, Sakura darted to the bedroom, totally terrified.

She took a deep breath before she spoke, "Sasuke..."

The head of the family glanced at her with confusion written on his face. When he noticed how Sakura's face turned even paler while she pointed downstairs, he gave Sarada to her and instantly went to their first floor.

Sakura then talked to Sarada, "Honey, I need you to keep quiet now, okay?" The little girl nodded as she embraced her much tightly. "Mama and Papa's gonna be here."

With Sarada secure in her arms, she followed her husband downstairs. "I-is he still there, Sasuke? I'll call the police now."

She received a nod. "Are the windows all locked?"

"Yeah."

"How about the back door?"

Did I lock it? Oh my, did I? There was a moment of silence until—

"Sakura!" Sasuke grabbed her hand in an instant and pulled her beside him.

Gasping, Sakura breathed heavily upon realizing that there were already three men inside their house, one of them was able to go through the front door. Thank God Sasuke's here!

"M-mama…" Sarada was already noticing the commotion. She then buried her face onto her mother's chest as the Uchiha matriarch hugged her tighter.

"It's fine, baby. It's fine."

"Papa's here, Sarada," Sasuke whispered. That statement assured even Sakura that she almost forgot that they were not exactly in good terms with each other.

Clearing his throat, Sasuke then spoke to the three strangers, "What do you want?" He paused. "Please...not my family. Not them, please," he added, now standing protectively in front of his wife and daughter.

"I asked you, what do you want?" Sasuke asked more firmly this time. And yet again, he only received silence from the other party.

Sakura's eyes softened as she stared at his back. To hear that he cares so much about them despite the tensions they've had made her heart full, as if it's been waiting to hear those words after a long time. But it wasn't the right time to be sentimental with the situation they're in now.

Only then did she notice that the invaders were carrying weapons. One of them was holding a long piece of wood, the other one had a big knife, and the last guy who was from the front door had none; maybe his primary job was to open its lock.

"Mam–"

"Yes, Sarada…" There was a crack in Sakura’s voice but she wanted to be firm in front of her daughter. "Everything will be fine." 

One of the strangers stepped forward, the one carrying a piece of wood.

Sasuke tensed at this, mentally blaming himself for not having his phone with him. He also saw Sakura's phone on their bed, so they couldn't contact the police right now. As he calculated possible scenarios, he noted that it was too risky to move or attack, especially with the fact that the strangers could harm his wife and daughter. He clutched his fists as he turned to Sakura, eyes telling him things that he knew his wife would understand.

And indeed, she did. A stray tear escaped from her eyes as she shut them and shook her head. No. This won't be the end. This won't be the—

"Sasuke!" Sakura flashed her eyes open upon hearing a loud groan. Gasping at the sight, she was frozen in place as she watched her husband writhe in pain after being hit with the long piece of wood by one of the invaders. She didn't know what to do now.

"Pa–pa!" Sarada squirmed and began crying in her arms but she held her in place.

This time, Sakura faced the men. "What do you want from us?!" She forced her voice to not waver. "If you wanted to take something, you didn't have to hurt my husband like that! We don't even have much here! And you are scaring our baby!"

Sarada cried even harder despite not understanding what was going on.

Then, to her utter surprise, she heard them laugh…

The three invaders suddenly guffawed as they one by one removed their black masks.

With widened green eyes, Sakura felt as if a vein popped in her head when she finally realized who the men were. "What the—How dare the three of you!" 

Sarada stopped crying when she saw what made her mother shout. "Uncles!"

Sakura put her down and minded herself for a while, recalling the past few minutes that made her feel like her heart was going to explode. She was sure these three were their friends, but she wasn't quite sure now.

"Hey, Sara-chan!"

Gleefully, Sarada ran with her tiny feet. "Uncle Naruto!"

Naruto carried his niece as if nothing had happened. "You okay now?"

The little girl bounced in his arms.

Confused and still in pain, Sasuke tried to stand and welcomed Sakura's assistance to him. "What?! What's going on here?"

"Oops...by the way, sorry, Teme. I think that was pretty hard."

"Naruto Uzumaki! That did hurt!" He groaned. 

The three idiot visitors – invaders – continued laughing.

"Anyway, maybe you should change your door knob now," Sai said as he laughed, "and choose a better one, huh? I think that one is way too easy to open."

"This is not funny, Sai!" Sasuke exclaimed as he gave them a glare, trying his best to not punch anyone in the face tonight.

"Calm down, children," Kakashi instructed, still chuckling with a shake of his head. 

"Stop it! You scared us!"

"Too bad I did nothing, though," their former sensei added, not minding what the Uchiha matriarch said.

"Haha! But you did well in holding the knife, Kakashi-san!" Now Sai, who was usually emotionless, was losing control.

"What is this damn role play all about, huh? Didn't you even think that you might scare Sarada?" Sasuke interrogated, feeling a bit better but still assisting his lower back.

"Hmm...I think it's just that I want you to get out of my house already. A week with a married guy felt irritating." Naruto grinned and then turned to Sarada, "You want Papa here, right?"

"Yep, yep, Uncle!" She chuckled. And Sakura couldn't help but smile as she saw the corners of Sasuke's lips twitch upwards.

"This is actually for her, Sasuke, Sakura-chan," Naruto explained as he embraced his adorable niece.

"So what's the plan now?" Sai asked. 

Then the three of them stared at the couple, grinning like Cheshire cats.

Sakura met Sasuke's confused gaze.

"Remember your daughter, you're not kids anymore. Go, talk," Kakashi uttered seriously this time, pointing upstairs as if grounding Sasuke and Sakura due to an offense.

The husband and wife were frozen in place upon realizing that everything was planned behind their backs.

"Oh, come on. We're giving Mr. and Mrs. Uchiha their time of privacy. Go!" Sai nudged them to go upstairs. There was no escape now.

To her surprise, Sasuke began walking upstairs before looking at her with a smile. "I think they're right."

She smiled back after a few moments and followed suit, unsure of what was going to happen now that they were finally going to confront their situation.

They proceeded to their bedroom, leaving Sarada with her uncles so they didn't mind closing the door. They were finally on their own after a week. And for a moment, they were tacit as they drank each other's presence, uncertain about how to begin settling what they should have decided to settle on the same day their argument sparked.

It was rather awkward until they met each other's gazes, and then, they both laughed.

"Silly, right?" Sasuke commented while chuckling.

"Yeah. That whole thing was a mess!" 

When their laughter subsided, Sakura was finally at ease. Knowing that Sasuke was there all along was relieving. He never left them as he stood his ground to protect their family, that's all that stuck into her mind.

"Sakura," Sasuke soon paused and then held her hand, making her realize that she missed him so much more than she thought. "I'm...I'm so sorry."

Tears began brimming Sakura's eyes as she stared at her husband.

"I've been selfish. I knew I hurt you with my words but all that mattered to me was my own frustrations at work that day, to the point that I chose to have my space and leave the two most important persons to me." His dark orbs now focused on her seafoam ones. "Please forgive me, Sakura. I've been a stupid husband and father."

"No, Sasuke." Sakura squeezed his hand and smiled. "I had my own mistakes too. I shouldn't have nagged you and blamed everything to you knowing that you were already feeling so low about yourself that day. I should've been your number one supporter, but I failed in becoming that. I'm sorry. And I forgive you." She beamed once more.

"Thank you, Sakura, for everything. I forgive you as well." The corners of his lips moved upwards. "This would never happen again. Should we have another argument, I'm not going to let a long time pass and we'll deal with it immediately. Because damn it, I missed you." He squeezed his eyes shut and shook his head. "I missed you and Sarada. I'm really sorry."

Sakura's hand moved to his cheek, she blushed when he leaned into her touch and slowly opened his eyes. "You're here now, Sasuke...that's all that matters."

"Are you sure?"

"Of course."

"Will you take me back?" He then pouted, causing Sakura to chuckle. Seeing that made him feel accomplished and gave his heart the warmth that he hadn't felt for a week.

"Idiot! We're married." She pinched his cheek this time, making him grin despite wincing slightly. "We just needed some space to cool down but that didn't change the fact that you're my husband and I'm your wife."

"Hn. Say that again."

"Eh? What?"

"That you're my wife." He now pulled her closer to him.

"I-i'm your wife…" Sakura bit her lip as a tinge of pink appeared on her cheeks.

Sasuke smirked at the sight. "This is what I missed the most." And then he closed the distance between them to meet her lips with his.

Moments later, they heard footsteps from the stairs.

"Whoa......" Three people, including their baby, were now in front of their room.

"Don't mind them," Sasuke whispered and then slammed the door of their bedroom as he kissed his wife again, making Sakura chuckle against his lips.

"Yay! Mama and Papa will both be here again!" Their Sarada shouted for joy on the other side of the door.

Her parents felt the gladness as much as she did.

So the role play was effective after all.

Boruto: Sacrifices [Remade] | Chap.15 - Coping with the Pain

Written by: Eleanor-Devil & @mirage-05​​

Prologue | Chap.1 | Chap.2 | Chap.3 | Chap.4 | Chap.5 | Chap.6 | Chap.7 | Chap.8 | Chap.9 | Chap. 10 | Chap.11 | Chap.12 | Chap.13 | Chap.14 | Chap.15 - You’re here

Boruto watched as a pair of curious blue eyes slowly rose up to the level of his gaze, and tried not to sigh at the seventh attempt of Himawari to cheer him up. Giggling quietly and closing her eyes for a moment, his sister brought her hands to the sides of her face and stretched her cheeks while sticking her tongue out, making a face that would've been cute or funny in any other circumstances. As she studied his unchanged expression, a huge pout came onto Himawari's features. "Aw come on! This was different - I worked on it, too, y'know!" In any other circumstances, as in if he was just back from a mission and was only really tired... he would still have attempted to put on a smile and try to encourage her, by telling her something like, "Way to go, squirt, I will teach you better next time." but... It felt like his mind wasn't entirely here right now. Which, to tell the truth... it wasn't.

Seeing that he still didn't give any reaction, the look on her face saddened. "Onii-chan... I know you are sad about those jerks, and I am too..." Boruto closed his eyes, this wasn't the best topic... "But you know what?" she perked up. "Next time we will beat them up together. And show Mitsu-nii how we want him he-" "It's alright, Himawari." the blond finally cut in, it was becoming harder to keep his control. "I-I'm just tired, okay? We will talk tomorrow." This resulted in her heaving a very deep sigh. "Alright, alright. But I'm not giving up until you begin smiling again." She got up and was about to turn back when Boruto suddenly leaned forward and pulled her in a hug. He had caught her by surprise, but she was quick to return it, and the older brother held on for dear life. He didn't bother telling her that he probably wouldn't be smiling for a long time. "You don't have to thank me for that," she said with a big grin when he finally let her go. "Good night, onii-chan." "Good night, Himawari." Boruto whispered. As she walked out, he finally gave in and lied down on my bed, staring up at the ceiling. When that got old, he turned to his left and pulled his knees to my chest, trying to forget... to not think of anything... It had not been long, presumably, since he and Sarada were dragged out of the hospital, maybe a few hours if he had to guess... But it seemed so much longer... [Flashback] "Excuse me... papa... I don't think I really understand you..." Sarada whispered, her eyes wide, her expression that of shock... "I am here to take both of you home." Sasuke, on the other hand, was the perfect image of stoic calmness, his tone matter-of-fact, his eyes unrelenting. There was a moment of silence. "Over my dead body!" Boruto snapped finally, fists clenched and looking very... very furious. The older Uchiha turned to him with a frown. "There is no need to be dramatic." "Stuff it, uncle Sasuke, I'm not going anywhere!" the blond continued, not bothering to keep his voice down at all. "We can't leave him!" Sarada backed him up, but she was more collected, more like she was trying to reason with her father. "We promised... We are not gonna make him feel like he was abandoned again!" "But sweetie..." Sakura said with a sad expression. "You can't keep staying at the hospital." "Yes we can!" It was the first time the pink haired medic had seen such stubbornness in her daughter. "Who says otherwise?" "The hospital rules." "To hell with the rules!" "Boruto." Sasuke's voice had taken on a very dangerous tone. "You are not going to talk to me like this." "I can talk however I want! I'm not going anywhere! And I would love to see you force me to leave!!" ... Uzumaki Boruto had one thing to admit: he had a big mouth. That did not mean that he was going to give up easily, though. Of course, it was no trouble at all for the Uchihas to grab the two pre-teens and head out. Naturally, aunt Sakura was gentler with it, so even though it took about twenty minutes to finally persuade her, Sarada was relatively calm while being led out by her mother. On the other hand... "Let me go! I said let. me. GO, you shitty old man!!" Sasuke didn't say anything or give any reaction, he just kept dragging the blond behind him. Coming to the realization that digging his feet on the ground or tucking back as hard as he could wasn't going to help, Boruto looked his master up and down and found the perfect spot. It was not the pain of the kick (though it had been a hard one) that made the Uchiha stop - he had felt much worse in his time - it was the abruptness of it. He closed his eyes for a moment as if praying for patience before he turned back and knelt to the level of Boruto's eyesight. "Serves you right, 'ttebasa," the blond said spitefully. "We can do this the easy or the hard way." The threat was not light. "You are gonna have to cooperate." "Or what?" "Or you can enjoy your time out here. It's getting cold." He looked up at his wife, who sighed inaudibly. "I can't allow you back into the building, Boruto." "Fine. Leave me here for all I care." Jerking his arm away from the black haired man, Boruto slumped on the floor, crossing his legs and arms. "I'm not going anywhere until he wakes up." [End of Flashback] He must have fallen asleep, because he didn't remember how he was brought here. And he had refused to talk to anyone after that. Boruto felt his gaze blur... He failed in his promise to be by his side at any costs. And here he was, forced to stay in his room while he didn't know what was going to happen in the next second... He was indeed such a good friend. ... Naruto looked up as he heard the door open. "Everything in order?" he asked in a tired voice which lacked the usual carefree tone he would normally etch in it. Hinata gave a small smile. "Yes... they both went to sleep." She stopped for a moment then, and her gaze drifted to the floor. "I just wish there was a way Boruto's sleep wouldn't be disturbed..." The man sighed. "Yeah... me too..." There was the sound of quiet footsteps and a shift on the bed as someone sat down on it. The blond then felt gentle hands placed on his shoulders. "Naruto, are you going to be alright...?" Hinata whispered sadly, squeezing his shoulders a little. At that, he closed his eyes, not sure how to answer for a moment. Then he nodded. "Yes... yes, I will manage..." ... 'Dammit... please make it in time...!' the Hokage thought frantically, the horrific phrases ringing in his ears. He was trying to block out the terrible images rushing to his mind, to keep his focus, but it was hard. How low can someone get to attack a child...? To even go ahead and murder him in cold blood...? He noticed that suddenly, he didn't hear any of the others with him, and felt actually glad for that. As long as they were safe... as long as there weren't two more kids he needs to worry about... He couldn't lose focus, then he will have a better chance of saving Mitsuki before it was too late. His blue eyes widened in surprise when he saw what looked like a figure being thrown against a tree. A small figure, he was almost sure it wasn't an adult... but then his sensors hit up and he felt it... Mitsuki's chakra! It was him! Frown deepening and teeth gritting, the Hokage quickened his pace to step in front of the fallen and hurt child before whoever was attacking him decided to strike again. And strike he did, the tall black haired bastard, he had a kunai, a special long, extra sharp kunai held out in front of him as he approached the hokage and the child. Yelling out of pure frustration, Naruto grabbed the man's arm, squeezing it hard enough that he was sure the man's bones were breaking. Then he raised him up like he was a rag doll and threw him against a tree, just like what he did to Mitsuki, and heard a satisfying crunch which probably meant at least fractures. He then rushed to Mitsuki, only to see another, blond man, one he was sure he didn't see before, by his side, raising his foot as if to kick the fallen child. The hokage was seeing red by that time. He took the man down in no time at all, his rage burning. Mitsuki, who was trying to hold the pain back, slowly raised his head to see why no one else attacked him more. His eyes widened in surprise when he saw that it was no one else than the Hokage. He was there... he had gotten his message! In less than a second, the young blue haired boy felt himself being picked up, held tightly and safe in the arms of a warm presence. For a moment, Mitsuki closed his eyes, as in taking in the safe figure... he felt safe... then he opened them and looked up at the Hokage. "Lord Hokage..." he murmured. The Hokage's fierce expression turned into a soft one as he looked at the brave, brave young boy in his arms. He closed his eyes for a second, letting the healing chakra flow through and beyond him, engulfing Mitsuki. He heard the boy gasp and opened his eyes with a smile, looking into the widened golden orbs. "That's right," he said in a gentle tone. "My time to protect the family after all. You are not alone..." Mitsuki felt his throat and eyes burn. His heart ached and seemed to skip a beat. The Hokage's warm presence was doing more than just healing him... it was reassuring his heart that he hadn't realized had been emotionally damaged during that fight. "T-Thank you..." a tear rolled down his cheek. Naruto felt saddened as he saw the tear falling down on the boy's cheek, wondering the extent to which the people had hurt Mitsuki... the ninjas, the people in Konoha... He felt his compassion growing up inside, knowing only too well what the boy had gone through, regretting each second he had lost to act upon the villagers' hatred... "Mitsuki..." he said, his voice tight. "I'm sorry I haven't been able to stop this... You are needed, wanted in Konoha... You are important to us, too." "I can't..." the child started. "I can't be needed in a place... where I can't even protect the people important to me..." He thought of Boruto and how he had gotten hurt trying to defend him... And once again, the Hokage was stunned by how this child carried such a burden on his shoulders. Was this really how he defined his place in the village...? This was too heavy, too cruel for just a boy his age... "Mitsuki..." he began. "Sometimes, you should let yourself be protected, too. You truly belong in Konoha, no less important than anyone." The child bit his lip. He didn't know how to counter that... how to convince the Hokage that as long as he stayed in Konoha, things would never be the same... But before he could even open his mouth to answer... Something caught his eye. The blond man with the lightning blade, aiming it at the Hokage's back... It all happened way too fast. Before Naruto could even register Mitsuki's breathing becoming hitched, his eyes widening as he looked at some point behind his back, the child yelled, "Lord Seventh!!" and suddenly, he wasn't in his arms anymore. The Hokage turned around frantically... Just in time to catch the boy falling back... And a huge blade sizzling with lightning cutting through right where his heart is... Naruto's eyes widened as he stared at the blue haired boy, realizing then that... If it wasn't for Mitsuki... that blade would go through him... Blood... huge amounts of blood escaped through the young boy's lips as he coughed and tried to breathe... but... it was so hard... He tried to say something but the words failed to come out, like they were stuck in his throat... "I..." that was all he managed to say. "No... no, no, no..." The light of the blade was fading, just like the light in the boy's eyes... Seeing him struggling to breathe, trembling with the pain that was too much, Naruto tried to hold back his emotions as he called forth his healing chakra again, he had to save the child! "Stay with me..." he mumbled, almost pleading, concentrating... It didn't work... "No..." the Hokage tried once again, why - how could the damn thing not work?! "Boruto..." Mitsuki murmured before coughing more blood, his throat hurt so much, joining the pain in his chest. "Sorry... tell him... I'm... s-sorry..." The memory of his best friend and the promise he was about to fail to fulfill... made another tear roll down his eyes. Naruto was close to losing it altogether, his breathing was hitched, his eyes burning as tears of his own threatened to fall when he saw the boy shed another tear... "No, you will tell Boruto yourself, you'll make it..." his words jumbled together as he watched the boy's chest moving slowly. Mentally cursing, he tried to call for the chakra once again... This time, the chakra came back to him, only too slowly... He gritted his teeth, willing, forcing his powers to come back... Just when the red chakra burned brightly around him, he saw Mitsuki's chest stop moving altogether, and watched, his blue eyes widened and horrified, as the boy's head fell down to a side... He couldn't do anything... shocked into immobility as everything around them came to a standstill... No voices, no light, no nothing... Naruto gathered the child's body in his arms gently, as if afraid to hurt him even more, his hands shaking as he looked at his now lifeless face... "That was my responsibility..." he whispered, his voice broken and tight. He drew Mitsuki even closer to his chest, leaning forward as tears started falling down to his cheeks... ... The scene changed too quickly, before he knew, Naruto was no longer in the forest and neither was Mitsuki's bloody body leaning against his chest. But he was still in the same position. Kneeling. Slowly he rose and looked around... white... he was at the hospital... ‘Mitsuki...!' the Hokage snapped out of his thoughts about the boy when he heard the door next to him clicking open. From there came out a familiar figure. Sakura... But she had the saddest and reddest face he had ever seen... She had been crying, and not just a little. Before he had even registered what he was doing... As if it was not his mind that controlled his body but something else, he rushed towards her, although he almost tumbled down. 'No, no, no...!' A frantic voice was screaming in his head, fogging any coherent thought. "Sakura-chan..." He mumbled, his voice tiny, so much so that he didn't know if she heard him. Sakura broke into a fit of new sobs, bringing her hands to her mouth, large tears splattering on them. Naruto didn't dare raise his head to look into the room... "He... His heart couldn't take any more..." He heard Sakura's voice, as if from too far away. She shook her head, she herself was still having a hard time believing the reality of what was happening but she had to bring herself to act like the medical ninja she was. So trying, hard, to control her sobs and tears, Sakura lowered her hand before speaking. "I'm sorry, Naruto..." she said. "Let's... let's just hope he is in a better place..." This... this was too much... It couldn't be...! Naruto walked right past Sakura, striding into the room, coming to a sudden stop... Everyone was there... The child was lying peacefully on the bed, free of the machines that connected him to this reality, to them... The hokage just watched, forgetting how to even breathe, how Hinata tried to pry Boruto away from the bed... His son was a complete wreck, he had been crying so hard that his eyes weren't even visible, shaking with the continuous sobs... And the young Uchiha, also crying and hiding most of her little body in her father's cloak... Sasuke was completely in silence and had his arm simply wrapped around his daughter's frame. Naruto watched, in horror and denial, how Tsunade slowly pulled up the white blanket until it covered Mitsuki's serene face... That... was the final blow... Naruto fell on his knees once again, his head bowing low as he started to softly cry himself, engulfed in the pain and sorrow of... losing... a child... How... How couldn't he stop this...? How could he let that happen...? "Lord Seventh..." He heard a soft voice whisper, and his head immediately perked up... They were no longer in the hospital. He didn't even know where they were... Everything, anything his eye could see to the horizon, was pure white... Mitsuki was standing right in front of him, a soft smile on his face. Naruto gasped as he raised a hand to touch the kid's shoulder... His hand went right through... He saw Mitsuki keep his soft smile as he shook his head. Silently telling the Hokage that he was nothing but... a spirit... "Lord Seventh..." his voice echoed through the space. "I have to go but... first... I want to thank you. For giving me a chance to live in your village... for allowing me to become a ninja... for allowing me to understand what friendship is and..." He closed his eyes and the smile widened. "For giving me a second family..." Naruto brought his hand over his mouth, tears fell down his face, and he actually felt himself trembling a little. "Don't thank me..." he whispered, his voice tight with the sobs. "I don't deserve it... I couldn't save you... You did nothing but love and protect the village and in return... All we caused you was grief and pain..." "I don't blame you or anyone." Mitsuki answered. "This was what destiny set it for me, it was my decision to leave and protect the village..." He sat in front of the Hokage. "Please...tell Boruto that I'm sorry for not keeping our promise... and don't let him grieve over me forever, he has to continue with life." "Mitsuki..." He was at a loss of words. The child was so honest, so pure that he felt the reality of this being the last time he would be seeing him was tearing him apart... "Be at peace..." He whispered brokenly, gazing at the child with a sad, sad look. "I will make sure Boruto moves on..." Somehow, he added in his mind, because he wasn't even sure how he himself was going to do just that. Mitsuki gave him one last, kind smile before his whole figure started becoming more and more transparent, until it vanished like thin air. He closed his eyes... Letting his agony take over as he wrapped his arms around his own body, just staying there and... existing... ... The man sat upright as his eyes opened to a darkened room. His breathing was hitched, and it took a while for him to understand someone was calling his name. "Naruto...!" he turned to his left and as his eyes adjusted, saw his wife watching him with a very worried expression. No words were needed between them - although Naruto didn't tell her about it, it wasn't hard for the woman to understand what was troubling her husband's sleep. The blond snuggled closer to Hinata and laid his head on her shoulder, and Hinata hugged him from around his waist. Naruto closed his eyes and felt tear after tear falling from them. Now that they were surrounded by concealing darkness, now that he didn't have to maintain a tough stance in front of the children or the villagers... he didn't hold back. Moments passed in silence, Hinata didn't say anything, she was just caressing his hair, letting him know that she was here... "I saw that I saved him..." she heard a mumble then, and she shifted only very slightly to look at him. "...that I was there in time..." His wife's hold tightened a little more with that. "But as soon as I save him, he... he..." He trailed away, closing his eyes tight as the images replayed in his head. "A Hokage is supposed to protect his people... It's not supposed to be the other way around... Especially not a child..." Silent sobs started rocking his body. He felt like he was rendered helpless once again, something he had not felt in a very long time, maybe not even since childhood... Hinata placed a gentle kiss on his forehead, closing her eyes. "Naruto..." she mused softly, brokenly. "...is there anything I can do to make you feel better...?" "Just... just hold me close..." the blond whispered, and Hinata did so, laying her chin on top of his head, allowing him to just wash the remnants of the nightmare away... ... She wasn't really sure of how much time had passed. She had stopped caring some time ago, a long time ago... She wasn't sure. The only thing she knew was that it was dark outside. When they came back from the hospital... The sky was a lighter shade, so yeah... it should've been a while. She didn't remember what she had been doing during that time. So Sarada just sat there, her back to her wall, knees pulled up to herself, staring at her toes, and trying not to remember, well... anything. The deep silence was broken when the bedroom door opened, revealing her father's tall figure. "Sarada..." he called, but got no answer from the girl. Sasuke sighed inaudibly, this had been going on for a while... And the scariest part of all of it was that he didn't know - he practically had no idea how to comfort his little princess. So instead of feelings, he decided to tread on safe waters - facts. "It's late." He said in his usual matter-of-fact tone, with worry tinting it. "You need to go to sleep." "I can't..." she murmured. "If I sleep I will just..." she gulped before continuing. "I will just see him... dying..." Sasuke closed his eyes for a moment when he heard his daughter's barely audible voice. Her words had triggered unwelcome memories from his past. How many times did he skip sleeping just so he wouldn't see Itachi's last smile plastered in front of his eyes...? Or scream loud enough so he wouldn't have to hear his voice...? Opening his eyes he walked into the room and sat on Sarada's bed. She didn't give any reaction. "I don't know much about that child..." he began, then paused for a moment. His next words were what he had been telling himself over the many decades. "He fought bravely to make sure we can sleep peacefully for another night. Don't let that be for nothing." Sarada didn't react for a moment... She closed her eyes before shaking her head... first slowly and then furiously. "No..." she murmured, at first it wasn't audible to Sasuke. "No, no, no I don't want him to be brave, I just want him to come back...!" She raised her head with widened, sad eyes. It made the Uchiha lose his voice for a moment, he didn't know what to tell her. So... he just scooted closer to her and pulled her in a hug, it would be what Sakura would do... "He is stubborn... and let's thank your mother's stubbornness too... it was a close call but... she won." "I..." Sarada closed her eyes for a moment, trying to control her shaking, but... it was no use... She snuggled closer to her father before opening her eyes, a distant look in the onyx orbs. "...I wish she was there from the beginning... What good was I...?" Her hands curled, her nails biting into her dad's arm. "Maybe it wouldn't have turned out this bad... I was useless... I did everything I could think of but in the end... I was useless..." Another tremor went through her body and she gulped, trying to not lose control. "Sarada..." he started. "It was destined to be this way... whether your mother had been there from the beginning or not..." He wasn't sure if he had chosen the right words to comfort her... he was trying but Sakura had always been better at this kind of stuff... "But you were not useless..." "I could've stopped this before it got this far... before he decided to leave the village..." It was as if she didn't hear Sasuke, her voice was almost a monotone. "When we found him... I-I was so shaken, I wasn't really concentrating... A-and w-when his h-heart st..." Her voice trailed off, she was breathless by now. "I... I just can't shake it off papa.... Nothing I did worked..." He didn't know what else to say... she was clearly suffering and he had no idea how to comfort her. What else could he do? What else could he say? "Sarada..." he started... but didn't finish. He just didn't know... "He is stubborn, you'll see..." "But what if he doesn't?! What if he never wakes up?!" Instinct took over as the man put his hand on the girl's head and started stroking her hair, trying to calm her down, even if for a little. "Have some faith in him..." Before he knew it, his voice was soft... possibly softer than it had ever been. "He managed to come back even when it was... almost beyond your mother's control..." And that was when she just stopped... everything around her stopped... as her eyes widened in shock... She felt her throat getting dry, losing her voice... her chest tightening... so hard that she put her hand over it, trying to regain control of her emotions... She didn't know... how close it had been... Sasuke immediately realized something was very, very wrong when he felt her daughter stiffening in his arms. Every cell in his body went into full alarm mode as he looked at Sarada, only to see her widened, frightened eyes. "Sarada?" "Papa, I..." Her words came out in a gasp, and she was clearly having difficulty in taking in another breath. "I-I can't breathe..." And he panicked, he really did. He put his arm on her shoulder and forced her to look at him. "Sarada look at me." She was shaking so badly now that her teeth were rattling. Images, voices, their first mission, the first time they went to hang out as a team, even their first interaction when she was at the cafe with Chocho... they all swam in her head, blurring her vision, making her gasps even more painful... Had they really... really been so close to lose all these...? When she heard him, she tried to use her father's voice as an anchor and tried to focus on him, hard as it was... "Sarada... are you okay?" Sasuke asked slowly, making sure his daughter was back on her senses... he was glad to see her eyes move back to him... "We... we... n-nearly lost him... for real... forever..." she still wasn't making sense... "But he fought his way back." Sasuke said seriously, looking deeply in her eyes, just making sure he held her right there. "He is a strong boy. He won't give up." If he was anything like his father, he thought to himself with an inner smile, that word probably didn't even exist in his vocabulary. Sarada took a couple of deep breaths, she was coming back to herself... slowly... "He... he is... he is strong..." she mumbled. Sasuke nodded. "He is... and he'll be fine, you'll see." Sarada snuggled closer to her father as she felt herself getting calmer. She felt tears starting to stain her cheeks, tears she didn't realize she was holding back... She didn't bother to stop them. "Papa... Stay with me, please..." Sasuke closed his eyes for a moment and touched his lips gently atop her head. "Always..." He watched his princess crying herself to sleep silently, caressing her hair... ... They had been running away... yet again. Honestly, this was beginning to become a habit. "Got your back, Boruto," he heard Mitsuki call. He tried not to roll his eyes at the prospect of just how ridiculously easy the assignment initially was. It was supposed to be a C-rank, they were gonna re-claim (or re-steal, in Boruto's words) a huge sum of money that was stolen by thugs from a wealthy landlord from the land of fire. These weren't ninjas they were dealing with, so it shouldn't even be a sweat - but apparently, one of the thugs was a really talented fighter who was also quick with his sword work. So they had to act quicker - basically distract the guy while Sarada took the money. Getting to lose the guy was easier said than done, though. "This calls for drastic measures," Boruto shouted, and Mitsuki's eyes widened when he noticed the hand signs. "Not that jutsu?" "Yes that jutsu!" Boruto answered curtly before crying out. "Oiroke no jutsu!" Mitsuki shrugged then, and quickly completed the combination. 'I don’t really care anyway,' he thought inwardly before shouting out loud. "Oiroke no jutsu!" Then he noticed where they were headed. "Bonita, look out!" he cried in a high-pitched, feminine voice. He didn't know whether it was his warning or the very-suddenly-made-up name that stopped his friend, but they came to a sudden halt in front of the famed waterfall of Konoha. "Bonita?" Boruto turned to look at him. "Seriously?" Then he stopped and a grin appeared on his face. "Hey, nice body. For the team's baby, that is." "Not bad yourself." Mitsuki said with a smirk, raising an eyebrow. They both turned back as they heard the bushes behind them rustle and the fighter stepped out of it. "Why you little..." The man stopped in his tracks. "Ladies?" he asked in a weird tone of voice, which was leagues away from what it was a minute ago. 'Ugh...' Boruto groaned inwardly while trying to keep a straight face. "Wow, gosh, isn't it such a very hot day?" he chimed in what he hoped was an acceptable imitation of Mitsuki's former squeal. "Oooh, it is," the man said, his grin widening. "Scorching, if you know what I mean..." 'Great,' Mitsuki thought as he resisted the urge to face palm. Of course, Boruto just had to say that. "What is it that you are looking for, dear sir?" The man immediately went back into business mode - or at least he tried to. "Two boys, one blond, one blue-haired. About this tall." He pointed with his hand to somewhere close to his waist. "Hey! I'm not that short!" Boruto shouted, at which point Mitsuki rammed his elbow into his ribs. "What?" the man asked, confused. "What h-she wanted to say is, yes, we did see two boys matching your description, just maybe they were a bit taller. I think they went that way, right, Bonbon-chan?" "Alright, this is too much. You don't see me calling you Mimi-kun, do you?" "Ah, but I thought you liked the name, especially that time when-" "What the hell is going on?" the man asked, even more baffled now. "Yeah, y'know what, you, Mimi, my friend, you are going down!" "Oh, please, Bonbon-chan, bring it on." Boruto never realized that he accidentally let go of the jutsu as he and Mitsuki jumped on each other - at least not until they heard the man let out an angry roar. "Why, you little critters, I'm gonna chop you to pieces!" Boruto saw his friend quickly eyeing their surroundings before yelling "Jump!" and put a hand to his chest to shove him back. 'Jump?' He lost his balance when he reached the edge of the cliff, flailed his arms wildly for a bit, then both him and Mitsuki tumbled down. ... It was exhilarating! Boruto couldn't help but scream in excitement as they fell down some meters below into the river. The chilling water cut his breath on impact and for a while, stars danced in front of his eyes. Then he kicked up and burst through the surface, laughing joyously. "Haha, that was priceless, don't you agree?" There were no replies. Confused more than concerned, Boruto looked around. Where was Mitsuki? They had both jumped in... didn't they? Fear hit him at the possibility, and he immediately looked up... to see the clear blue sky from a minute ago completely changed into dark, grey and navy colored clouds, and they were closing in. A storm making its way through them. "Mitsuki!" he shouted, or he thought he had, but no sound came out. He gasped in shock, bringing his hand to his throat, but still nothing. Actually, it was eerily, completely silent. No one was atop the cliff. No one was around the shore. To think about it... he couldn't see the shore at all. The dull greyness seemed to stretch on forever, and it frankly freaked Boruto out. Alright, they had fallen to the water... Did Mitsuki not resurface? Was it even possible that he had been holding his breath for this long? Was it natural? He didn't wait any longer to ponder on that as he dived back in, the coldness of the water again bit at him, but this time, he didn't give it much care. Strangely, it was clearer underwater than it was above. It was still empty, but at least the blond could see clearer. "Mitsuki!" he called once again, and he heard his frightened voice rang through the oblivion. For some reason, he found it oddly comforting to be able to hear his own voice. There weren't any signs of his friend yet, and Boruto was slowly going into full panic-mode. This... this wasn't the way this mission was supposed to go, right? There was another outcome, this wasn't real... right? Maybe he was dreaming? He broke through the surface once again, his lungs rejoicing in the fresh air once again filling them. He brought his hand to his forehead to pull back some of his hair falling into his eyes and then looked up... Red. He gasped as he turned around, and found a trail of red... A long, thin trail... An ugly color that didn't belong... He began swimming as fast as he could, following the trail, but it was as if he was swimming through tar, he was too slow... Too late... A lightning flashed high above, and Boruto almost came to a halt as an image flashed through his mind... ... The... hospital...? The first person that registered was Sarada. Of course it had to be her, he would've noticed her anywhere, whether it be a lonely room or a crowded out place. She was... she was huddled on a bench, as far away from the crowd gathered in front of the glass window of the room as possible, in a fetus position, hugging her knees, trembling from head to toe. Was she... Crying...? Dread gripped his heart as he was forced to look away from her to the people gathered and recognized them one by one... His father holding his mother in his arms, tears sliding down both their faces, his mother couldn't even look up, while Naruto seemed like he couldn't take his eyes off. He seemed to age on that very spot as he watched from behind the glass with a grief-stricken face. Lastly... he watched as Orochimaru's pale fingers grip the glass frame so hard that his knuckles turned white. His face could be regarded as emotionless from anyone else's point of view, but the blond saw deep lines of sorrow etched into the sannin's face. The next thing he knew, Boruto had pressed himself to the glass, the cold fear in his heart threatening to make it come to a stop. Sakura had bent over the bed. As she shifted slightly to kiss the person on the forehead, sobbing quietly but hardly, Boruto saw through her arm a glimpse of light blue hair, and his friend's... his best friend's pale, deathly pale skin... ... "No..." Boruto gasped, out of breath as he tried to reach the place where the red was much thicker, and a tear rolled down his cheek. The cold pressed down on him, making his movements that much slower, but he kicked stubbornly, trying to make it over there faster. Another lightning flashed... ... It was a rainy day. It was kind of like an unspoken tradition in the leaf village that whenever there was a sad event, like a funeral, there was rain. It felt so surreal, so out of place that he got to be standing here, in his black mourning clothes. It didn't feel like he was attending the last service of a friend, a very close friend, rather for a stranger. Because... this didn't happen... this couldn't happen, right? He took in his surroundings, looking at the faces of everyone gathered one by one. He realized he didn't know just how many people lived in Konoha - the place was practically overcrowded. From what he could see through the misty haze, guilt and grief ruled many, if not all of the expressions. He remembered how furious he was towards them when some of them wanted Mitsuki gone, the way they harassed him... But now he couldn't bring himself to feel that way. His friend wouldn't have wanted that. "He harbored a kind, unbreakable heart." his dad's words echoed back to him, like Naruto was standing at the end of a long tunnel. "He was just a child, yet he didn't hesitate to sacrifice his life for the village's safety. So here on this day, when we gather to honor him, I would like to say this... Mitsuki... this village shall never forget what you did, and we will not let your sacrifice be in vain." Naruto leaned forward to put a single white carnation on the coffin. That was then that Boruto saw the picture standing on the altar. It was when he looked at his friend's pale golden eyes, the eyes which would only look through lifeless photos from now on, that it started. His own tears mixed with the rain as he walked forward to put the red carnation he was holding on the coffin. ... "MITSUKI!!!" Boruto screamed, turning around himself wildly, still not having seen his friend, his breath coming strained as rising panic brought him to near hysteria. Then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a shape in the middle of all that ugly red color. Any and all kinds of thoughts erased from his mind as he hastily swam there. Mitsuki was lying on his back on the water's surface, his body relaxed, his head tilted to one side. He could easily have been sleeping if not for the blood oozing from the several wounds across his body, and the fact that... his chest... was not moving at all... "Mitsu... ki...?" the blond whimpered, too shocked by the sight to utter anything else. He tried to lift his hands, to grab hold of him, to just be able to... do something... But his hands limply dropped to his sides as he just stared at the blue-haired boy, too terrified... ... He didn't know just how much time had passed. Could've been days, weeks, months... Years... Or merely hours. He didn't care. Time has lost its meaning for him, really. He was standing in front of the K.I.A. monument. Like he had been doing so many times in the passing time. For some reason he was yet to understand, being here was actually... calming. He didn't know how to explain. Maybe he was content that he was returning to his friend after each mission. Or maybe... the place where it all ended. The setting sun shone on Mitsuki's name, although he didn't need the emphasis. His eyes were already glued to it, maybe a little selfishly ignoring the others. A bitter smile crossed his lips as his friend's face came into his view. "We've missed you..." he whispered softly, tracing his fingers on the smiling kanji. ... Time regained its pace as movement returned to Boruto's muscles, and he leapt forward, grabbing and bringing Mitsuki's form closer. "Mitsuki!" he shouted, and tears came freely when his friend didn't respond in any form whatsoever. He desperately held the younger boy closer. "No! You're not gonna do this! You're not gonna do this to us, you idiot!" His head hung low as the silence continued, and he began sobbing. "Come back..." ... This was supposed to be his happiest day. And he was happy, too... in a way, he supposed. Finally marrying the woman of his dreams, the one who had accepted his hand in a life-long unity. But of course something... someone was missing... as surely as he did for the past decade. He tried to gulp as he gazed into the golden eyes of Mitsuki... in the photo. He sighed. "You know... I'm so angry with you right now. You were supposed to be the friggin' best man here. Do you have any idea how hard it was to get along with Shikadai, Inojin and Metal? Shikadai honestly didn't let me have a breath of fresh air." There was a moment of pause, and the look in his eyes saddened. "I did everything I know you would want me to go through... I lived my life... to the fullest. You were always there... somehow. And you will be here today, too." There was a knock on the door, and Himawari peeked in. "Onii-chan, we are ready..." She came to a halt as she understood what was keeping him... Boruto turned to face her with a small smile. "So am I. Hima... please take him to the reception." The young woman nodded mutely as she walked forward to take the frame in her arms... ... He didn't know how long he stayed there crying, but suddenly, very clearly, he heard his voice. "Boruto." His head immediately snapped up. They were no longer in the water. It was some dark place... Actually, he couldn't see anything... But his friend standing right in front of him. The blond gasped in shock, making Mitsuki smile a bit. "It's gonna be alright." the blue haired boy said, his voice barely above a whisper. He wasn't sure what he meant. The younger then put a hand on his shoulder. "Thank you..." he said softly, and his smile turned into a full-on grin. "...for everything." And Boruto watched, horrified, as Mitsuki's form relaxed and he fell forward to him. The blond immediately held his friend, his eyes widening as the younger completely slacked against him, his head lying on his shoulder, blood all over his body... ... It was gonna be a sleepless night. Naruto had already conceded to it. He was on the window sill, looking outside, a haunted look in his eyes. He wondered how the kid was doing right now, if he was going to be able to see the light of the day, like they would... And for the countless time in the past two days, he wished Mitsuki had just overlooked the rogue nins and they faced them in Konoha. An ear-piercing scream coming from his oldest's room snapped him out of his trance-like state. He saw Hinata jolt up from the bed, immediately alert herself. "Boruto!" she gasped, and they were out of the room. Boruto's screams of agony rang throughout the house and it was really hard to listen to it. The pain in it was so much that it was almost as if he was physically hurt. It was enhanced by the fact that Boruto had never... ever let them see what he deemed as weakness - just a sign showing how he was really affected. When they reached the door of his room, they found out that Himawari was already there. "Onii-chan!" she was calling through the door, banging her small fists on it. "Onii-chan, what's wrong?" "Naruto, take her!" Hinata called to her husband, who gulped and nodded, grabbing Hima around her middle and carrying her away. Hinata then opened the door to his son's room and rushed inside. Boruto was thrashing around in his bed, the covers all tangled over his body, and he was screaming at the top of his lungs, although his eyes were still closed. Tears were streaming down his face as he whimpered, soaking the pillow and the bed sheet. "No! Please... Don't go... Don't leave us..." He sobbed hard, and continued to moan and cry in a soft voice. Hinata brought her hand to her mouth to contain her sobs, her heart breaking as she watched her son break down. After the initial shock, she walked over to his bed and sat down next to him, pulling her whimpering son close to her. "Ssh... It's gonna be okay, baby, ssh..." "Please come back...!" Boruto whispered once again, his hands reaching forward to reach out to his friend who was not there. ... Naruto laid Himawari down on her bed and sat down next to her as he looked into his daughter's widened, tear-filled eyes. "Papa... What's wrong with Onii-chan?" Hima asked in a tiny voice, clearly frightened. "I... I never heard him like that..." "I know, baby," Naruto sighed as he pulled her closer to him. "I know..."

SasuHina Month 2020- Day 4

Prompt – Coffee Preferences/The Smell of Coffee in the Morning

Long Distance- Part 2

Sasuke POV

I am chugging a glassful of water after my morning work-out when Naruto comes out of his room eyes closed and wearing only his boxers. Me and my roommates have very different ideas of ‘morning’. For me morning is 7-8 a.m. when I get up, drink my coffee and a protein shake and go to the gym for my 3 hours work out, for Naruto it’s around 10-11-12 depending on the day, he eats ramen for breakfast and his day starts only after 2 pm. Then there’s Gaara; I saw him this morning when I woke up, that’s when he got home and was going to bed so I’m not holding my breath for him to wake up before 5 pm or so.

I watch as my best friend wanders thought the kitchen, eyes still closed, and prepares himself instant ramen. If someone told me this was him sleep-waking making ramen I’d believe them. I fill another glass of water and drink that one too and leave Naruto to his own routine; I’m in need of a shower. Once showered I get dressed for work. It’s summertime so no classes or practice, even so the three of us decided to stay on campus instead of going home. Mom wasn’t happy with me when I told her I told her I’ll be spending my last summer before graduating University here. She twisted my arm until I promised to go visit them for 2 weeks around the end of August. Which happens to be next week. Since I don’t plan on working during the actual year because classes and hokey will take up all of my time, I gave my 2 weeks’ notice already. I picked a random job this summer, it doesn’t really have anything to do with my major but it’s still good money, I’m a mechanic in an auto-service. I declared my major in education only last semester; I plan on going pro with hokey but if anything were to happen, I realized that I wouldn’t mind being a coach.

I pick up my keys and wallet and make my way to the kitchen. Naruto is still eating and I’m still not sure he’s really awake. The drive to work is quite short which is one of the reasons I picked this job, that and the fact that since my 12th birthday each summer both Itachi and Dad have been throwing their car knowledge at me. I’m not particularly interested in it but it’s better than Naruto’s construction job, or his job in moving furniture, or any other odd jobs he picks up every week.  I work from 12 to 8 or 9 at night it depends on how busy the shop is; thankfully it is quite deserted today so I get the ok from the owner to go home at 7:15. I make the short drive home and am about to walk inside when my phone starts ringing. I check the caller and press answer when I notice it’s my mom. I walk in and see Garra in the kitchen eating.

“Hey sweetie, how are you?”

“Hey mom, I just got home from work; how are you?” I say and go to sit down on the sofa in the living room.

“I still don’t get why you wanted to stay behind and work. Your tuition is paid by the scholarship and for everything else you want you know me and your dad will pay.” She says and I can hear the whining undertone in her voice. I am indeed working for the money; I don’t like asking for money from them; I can’t work during the year so I try to make as much as I can now that way, I can depend on myself for a while. I’ll only ask for money if I have to. Then there’s also the freedom; at home there’s always someone asking me where I’m going what I’m doing and so on. I’ve discovered I like my freedom very much during University. During the hokey season some of that freedom is taken by the coach but it’s still more than I’ve had home.

“I know mom. But I’ll be home for two weeks in a few days.”

“That’s what I wanted to talk to you about. I was talking to my friend Hikari, and she was complaining about how Hinata said she won’t be coming home at all. Neji and Hiashi are in America for the summer so they can’t drive over to see her. Hinata never learned how to drive and the road is way too long for her to take a train. Can you imagine baby?” Mom likes to give every piece of information; it doesn’t matter that I have no idea who any of these people are. I have never heard of her friend Hikari and her family “And she’s home all alone with Hanabi who is 16 and going thought her rebellion phase. My heart just breaks at that thought, sweetie; doesn’t yours?”

Mom actually makes a pause as if she’s actually expecting me to answer. “Yes, mom that sucks big time” Gaara walks into the living room and mouths ‘I’m off to work’ I nod and continue listening to mom.

“You know that Hinata doesn’t go to your University but the road from your house to hers is only about 2 hours so I told Hikari you’d swing by Hinata’s place to pick her up and you’d come home together. She was so excited baby. She’s on the phone just now talking to Hinata”

I’m stunned into silence. Mom literally tome me to make an additional 2 hours to pick up this girl and then another 2 hours to return from where she is; the only University that is quite close to us is the University of Arts and that’s 2 hours towards Suna and not Konoha. So instead of getting home in about 8 hours it would take me 12 hours. And let’s not forget I’d be stuck in the car with a stranger.

“I don’t know mom; that’s a little inconvenient and—”

“Sasuke Uchiha! What is more important your own convenience or reuniting a mother with her daughter? Plus, Hinata is cute as a button I’m sure the two of you will get along great”

I know better than to pick up a fight with my mom so I just agree; you could call me a pushover when it comes to her, I call it choosing my battles. “Fine. But I’ll need her number so I can talk to her directly and organize the trip I guess”

“Of course, baby. I’ll text you her number in a moment. Love you dear”

“I love you too” I really do but at times she can be very exhausting. Mom is so used to getting her way, both my dad and me and Itachi spoiled her for too long and now neither of us can say no to her, no matter how crazy her ideas are.

Hinata POV

I am stunned. Mom just called to tell me that she found a way for me to come home for two weeks. Apparently, the son of her friend Mikoto, friend she has never mentioned before in my life, goes to KU (Konoha University) and he will come pick me up and we’ll have a grand ol’ road trip.

Let me explain the two main issues here.

1.      I didn’t want to go home. Hell, if I wanted to, I could have taken a train on the first day of summer holiday or looked for a bus to take me home; but I didn’t.

2.      KU is 2 hours away towards Konoha, which means she inconvenienced this guy to drive 4 more hours than he should just to drag me, a complete stranger, home

The levels of guilt I’m feeling have no boundaries. I’m still thinking about how unreal this feels when my phone rings again, it’s an unknown number and under normal circumstances I would not answer but mom let me know that she gave the guy my number so we could talk about the trip home.

“Hello” I hate talking on the phone. I hate talking to stranger. I hate talking on the phone with stranger even more.

“Hey, is this Hinata?” his voice sounds defeated and exhausted too. I can only imagine the conversation his mom had with him.

I let a big sigh “Yes, it is. You my road trip partner?”

This makes him laugh a littler “Yes m’am. I’m Sasuke in case you mom, my mom’s best friend it would appear, didn’t let you know”

“I’m so sorry this got dumped on you. I feel so guilty especially since I could have found ways to go home…I just didn’t want to” I say and roll over so I’m on my back in my bed rather than on my belly. “Can’t you tell your mom the 4 extra hours are too much for you to drive?” “I tried and she pretty much tried to guilt trip me, saying that the, and I quote, ‘reunion of a mother with her daughter’ is more important than my selfishness” he sounds equal parts amused and annoyed. I don’t blame him.

“I too told my mom that I can’t possibly impose but she kept reassuring me how you found out about our situation from you mom and it was you who came up with the idea and that you would not take no for an answer. I knew it was bullshit from the get-go but mom has a way of getting whatever she wants” I confess.

“So does my mom. The more I mull over this the more I think our moms being friends is a bad idea.” The stranger aka Sasuke says followed by a lough sigh.

“You are right. Mom is bad enough on her own, I don’t even want to think what the two of them can do together”

“I wonder how they met. Did one of them put an ad in the paper. ‘Looking for a friend; guilt tripping of the universe, manipulation of everyone around, especially one’s children and the ability to get your way are the main characteristics I am looking for in a friend’”

That makes me laugh more than I want to admit. Silence falls for a few moments before Sasuke talks again.

“Anyway, regarding the drive, is it ok for you if I come pick you up at 9 in the morning or so; I want to get home at a somewhat decent hour” guilt washed over me again.

“That’s great, whatever works for you. I don’t want to inconvenience you even more. I am truly sorry Sasuke”

“It’s ok it isn’t your fault this was dropped on you just as it was on me. So I guess I’ll see you Sunday morning”

“Yes, I’ll text you my address right now so I don’t forget.”

“Ok thanks”

“Bye, see you Sunday” I say and hang up just as Ino opened the door to my room.

“Ooooo who will you be seeing on Sunday?” Ino asks and she winks and wiggles her eyebrows ate me.

“Oh, stop that, it’s a poor guy that my mom and his mom forced to swing by and drag me home for 2 weeks” I say.

“Oh no, you’re going home? Nooo, whyyy???” that is how I wanted to react too when mom told me but I couldn’t do that, no matter how meddlesome she is I never want to hurt her feelings.

“Mom insisted. And as I said she even secured me a way to go home and return” I still feel so guilty about troubling Sasuke so I make a note to cook breakfast for us or something nice like that.

Sasuke POV

Sunday morning, I arrive at Hinata’s a bit earlier than intended but I did text her when I left my home so I hope she’s ready to go. I walk to the door and knock. A girl that I assume is Hinata opens the door and to my horror she’s in her pjs. Her blonde hair is a mess and over all she does not look ready to hit the road.

“You must be Sasuke, come on in.” She says and I can’t even protest that we’re in a hurry and it’s better to just go because she’s not freaking dressed.

I walk into the small home and the smell of coffee hits me from every possible way. I’ve already had my first cup but I feel tired and the smell only makes me crave another cup.

“The kitchen is that way make yourself comfy” she says and walks to the stairs her own cup of coffee in hand. I hope to God she’s going to get dressed so we can leave as soon as possible.

I walk to where she pointed and find myself in the kitchen. On the island there is a plate filled with eggs and bacon, another with pancakes and a bowl of fruit salad. I have questions and look around confused, when a petite girl pops up from behind the island with two cups in her hand. I make a startled noise and she in turn screams. We look at each other for a few moments before she asks “Sasuke?”

I nod and she sighs in relief. “Oh, thank God I thought you were an intruder. I made breakfast so we can eat before leaving if you’re not in too much of a hurry”

She’s dressed and I see a suitcase next to one of the chairs. So, this girl is the real Hinata and she is almost ready to go, thank God. “Yea that’s cool.” I sit myself down.

“Do you want coffee?” she asks, I was hoping she would.

“Yes please. With just a bit of sugar and nothing else” I say  

“Ah you’re that kind of person I see” She says and gives me my filled cup. I watch her add maybe 5 ml of coffee in the next cup fill that with milk a lot of sugar, cinnamon and even vanilla. She puts it in the microwave for a while and finally walks around to sit herself down too.

“Ah so you’re that kind of person” I say right back. Hinata drinks from her cup but her eyes are smiling at me. I wait for her to fill her plate first before doing the same. We eat in silence; I finish first so I take her suitcase and take it to the car. I return to the door just as she walks outside.

“INO I’M LEAVING” Hinata screams, I assume Ino is the blonde girl.

“OK BABE, CALL ME WHEN YOU GET THERE” a voice screams right back.

I chuckle and we get into the car. I notice Hinata holds two to-go cups in her hands. She notices me looking at them and shrugs. “I made both of us another cup of coffee for the road” her declaration makes me thank the Lords.

“Good idea. It’s going to be a long road”

Honestly if the Uchiha family existed in real life, let's be honest,they would look pretty shady.A man insulted an Uchiha's boyfriend? The next day,he was found beaten up and was placed in a psychiatric ward due to traumatic experience he would not tell.People would probably assume they're the mafia or something.While in reality they are just a family of disfunctional human beings.

Yeah, but they’re a close family. They are broken pieces, but turns out these broken pieces fit together perfectly. 

One time it were just the Uchiha boys hanging out together. Just like the old days before they had jobs and wives and children *for Sasuke just Naruto but it still fits the two latter categories*.

They were having drinks at the bar and were talking and their conversation can be pretty much about anything. Anyway Sasuke checks his phone and says: “The waifu texted.’

And Madara arches an eyebrow and asks what he means with that and Sasuke says that sometimes for fun he and Naruto pretend they’re in a hetereosexual relationship. When Shisui asked what he meant by that. Sasuke says it just kind of joking about being in a stereotypical hetereosexual relationship by pretending their sex life is non-exisitng, the kids are bunch of ungrateful brats and they’re only together for ‘the kids’ but the reality is, is that they are just too afraid to be by themselves that they force them self to stick with the other because those are the norms society pushes on them and they pretend to be happy and to not have an affair. 

This all kinda just started happening when Sasuke and Naruto were shopping and found the typical Kyle and Karin type and they just started cracking about them and it stuck around. 

Madara asks who the Kyle is and who is the Karin.  Sasuke says they switch depending on the situation. If Sasuke calls because he is overworking he is the Kyle and if Naruto hasn’t done the dishes then he is the Kyle. and so on. 

“It almost sounds like you’re making fun of my marriage,” Itachi mutteres. 

“Wait, wait....You pretend to be a straight dude?” Madara asks. 

Sasuke says: “yes.” 

Madara: “You....Straight. I mean Naruto sure but you?” 

Sasuke: “What is that supposed to mean.” 

Madara : “Because he is bi that makes him half straight.” 

Sasuke: “No.” 

Izuna: “I wonder about straight Sasuke now.” 

Sasuke: “Yeah my straight alter ego his name is Chad, he is an investment banker. He is constantly cheating with his assistant and the lady from the lobby, but they don’t know about each other. The name of my wife is Susan. She is home maker and craft fanatic. Her cooking if awful and my house is always dirty. I have three kids and all three are spoiled and call me by my first name. It is like Susan isn’t even trying to raise them but whenever bring it up she ends up crying we get in a big fight. We hand’t had sex in like 3 years. “ 

Itachi, Shisui, Madara and Izuna are staring at Sasuke. 

“What?” Sasuke asks. 

“I wanna meet this Chad character of yours... Can please pretend to be chad for like five minutes.” Izuna beggs.

“No, I am only Chad over the phone. When people call for like the cable or something. So i can make them uncomfortable by secretly asking about the erotic packages and then I tell them about how i paid the doctor to give Susan a  husband’s stitch  after she gave birth to my daughter. Teared her right up. And now, she doesn’t want to have sex with me because it hurts.” 

“Okay Chad is dog.” Itachi says.

“I wanna meet chad.” Madara insist. 

“Pleaseee, I wanna meet chad too! Bring chad out!” Shisui beggs.

“You’re making it sound like I have multiple personalities while in reality I am just really good in role playing...Because everytime I broke character during disguise classes. I got my fingers broken. One by one.” 

“Everything you say is always so sad...” Izuna sighs and everybody looks down. Sasuke killed the mood, he feels kinda bad now. 

“Okay! I will pretend to be Chad!” He turns to Itachi, “Say PeanutButterAsshole in like an hour or else I will subconscious keep thinking somebody will break my fingers and won’t stop pretending to be Chad for like at least 6 months” 

“Okay, guys we shouldn’t be doing this. It sounds like playing with fire-” 

“It is fine, he gave us his safe word!” Izuna shouts. 

“Okay, I am grab a drink and I will chad after I finished it.” Sasuke gets up and goes to the bar orders a shot, takes it back, slams the drink on the table. Turns to the women who is maybe just 20 and says.  “He...” With little head nod and Madara goes: “Oh my god he is chad!” 

“Did anybody else feel like all the gayness around him disappear.” Izuna jokes. 

“I feel like this is going to be troublesome.” 

So they watch him flirt with this women, as Chad. And he is being a fucking jerk. Like he keeps talking about himself (chad)  what he went school he went the sports he played. How awesome he is. How much he makes and how tough he is and the women, sorry for her self-respect, is digging it. Probably because he is good looking.

“Okay I am going to stop this y’all had enough fun.” Itachi says after like twenty minutes. 

“NO he says an hour! I wanna hear about chad!” 

“You know more about Chad than you do about Sasuke.” 

“Fine i’ll go, but I’ll have Sasuke pay for the next round of drinks.” Izuna says and walks up to the bar and says: “PeanutButterAsshole”

And Sasuke turns to him Izuna and says :”Oh I said in an hour, was the fun over so quickly?” 

“Your brother killed the mood, but Chad was amazing. I mean I would have probably slept with Chad.” Izuna joked. 

“No, Chad is extremely homophobic.” Sasuke says, “Also he is like weirdly fascinated by the second world war.” 

“You thought his entire character out.” Izuna says, grabbing Sasuke’s wallet from his pocket. 

“I know I started this as a joke over the phone with Naruto...But I always do this. Like I am not the one to talk about my sex life a lot but every one of my character during role plays has entire backstory. I should stop doing that.” 

“i tried roleplay...Makes me laugh the entire time. Couldn’t cut it.”Izuna says. 

This woman is asking what the hell is going on and Izuna is like, “Oh sweetie, you just go see a therapist because the moment Chad cut you off when you talked about your mother who is in hospital just so he could talk about himself must have been an eye opener for you. Respect yourself, queen.” Izuna says. 

Then suddenly her boyfriend shows up and suddenly they realise where the lack of respect for herself come from because her boyfriend’s name is actually Kyle. And he is super mad. And shouts at his girlfriend and she looks at Izuna and goes: “No I am not going with you. I am breaking up with you.” 

And this guy grabs her arm and she screams and Izuna pushed Kyle away tells him to lay off. Kyle’s frat buddies is walking in and Kyle tells Izuna what he is going to do and called him an old man and Izuna is like: “Old?! Me?!” 

And he turns to Sasuke who says: “Well we are 30s and he is like what...25?” 

Kyle: “22″ 

Sasuke: “You’re just bunch babies. listen, I don’t want to hurt you guys. But I can’t let hit my cousin...Or...drag this girl with you, that is like low key kidnapping. Anyway it is against her will and I might not like but I did take an ought to protect the innocent...Whatever the fuck that means.” 

Izuna: “Yeah fuck off...I am not old.”  

Kyle is ready to punch Izuna in the face, but Sasuke blocks it and sighs as he looks at Izuna who gives Sasuke a little innocent smile. 

“You want me to help you take them down?” 

“Because you caused it and you feel responsible?” Sasuke asks Izuna who shakes his head. 

“He called me old!” Izuna protests. 

“What’s going on?” Itachi asks. 

“Why won’t we all just calm down and maybe not fight-” 

These guys start insulting Itachi and Shisui. Madara is just sitting in the booth, arms behind his head shouting at the others to just sit down and enjoy the show. 

Itachi says no and tells Sasuke and Izuna to just go and these frat guys say a whole ass of offensive shit now even Itachi doesn’t feel bad for them and he just taps Sasuke’s shoulder and says :”Go wild, I couldn’t give a shit.” 

“You heard him.” Sasuke says and that when he skilfully beat up twelve frat guys in a bar fight while Madara is paying off to owner to “break the security camera”. 

Shisui shouting: “No if you do that it doesn’t count as self defence anymore!” 

Sasuke goes: “What if I do this?!” 

Shisui: “Yeah that is okay...” 

Thirty minutes later Sasuke sits back down in the booth. 

“Oh you’re knuckles are bleeding...” 

Itachi pours some vodka on a napkin and cleans Sasuke’s knuckles who then AFTER BEATING 12 GUYS WHO LOOKS LIKE A BUNCH OF BEARS. says :”That hurts...Brother~” And have his older brother blow on it before covering it up with the first aid kit. 

“Is there ever going to be sceneratio where we just go out as a family and not...Y’know get in trouble.” 

(sorry my rambles are just kinda weird these days because idk i am in a rambling mood)
