NaruSaku: No Time Like the Present“Want some dango?” Sakura asked.Naruto looked down at the dango stick. He held Hanami with his right arm while she snuggled up to his neck, all tuckered out and drooling on his yellow yukata. And he held Shinachiku’s hand with his left hand. So his hands were literally full, unlike Sakura, with only Arashi held in her left arm. For a moment, Naruto did not consider a single solution, other than to nonverbally remind his beloved wife that he had a sleeping toddler in one arm and a tired little boy in his other hand. The night was old, and Naruto already wanted to go home, and he could tell she wanted to, as well. But the dango was currently, in the present, a more pressing matter.He looked down at the two dango that Sakura had in her hand. One was sanshoku, which oddly did not look appetizing at all. His eyes wandered instead to the mitarashi, the gooey sweet soy sauce yearning to drip off the rice dumplings. It called to him, “Come to meeee!” it said in his mind, although that was just his imagination.A passing festival-goer bumped into his back, breaking him out of his reverie. The crowds were already thinning, but the stands were still bustling, the smell of fried rice and bean-paste pastries wafting through the air. Most Konoha citizens ignored the Hokage and his family, giving them the privacy they needed.But Sakura, looking beautiful as ever, dressed in a pink yukata dotted with her namesake, was getting visibly impatient, like her arm was about to drop at any second. Even worse, she was glaring at him. Well, what could he do?! His hands were literally full, he couldn’t drop Hanami and let Shinachiku go—Naruto sighed, closing his eyes and grinning sheepishly, much to Sakura’s annoyance, but she still grinned.He let go of Shinachiku’s hand, summoned a shadow clone that took Shinachiku’s hand and took the dango. No, he, the original, took the dango. Although Shinachiku was a bit unhappy that his father chose a treat over him, the shadow clone was unhappier that he had been summoned to babysit.But Naruto ate the dango quickly. He wanted to savor the flavor, but the thinning crowds meant that it was getting late. The exhausted toddler in his arms was another sign. He’d spent the night with her and Shina, making sure she didn’t get too rambunctious. Thankfully, she spent most of her energy trying to catch goldfish and failing spectacularly each time, the catcher breaking because she kept trying way too hard until she threw up her hands and stomped off. She had no better luck tossing rings, although Shinachiku came close, winning a couple of toys that Hanami clearly coveted, but she would wait until they got home to steal one. She was going to be a troublemaker when she got older, Naruto knew. She wouldn’t turn evil, no sir, but she was always unimpressed with stories of his childhood shenanigans. He could see it in her eyes; she was going to surpass him as a prankster. Hoo boy.When Naruto finished the dango, he released the shadow clone and took Shinachiku’s hand again. Adjusting little Hanami in his arm, he stepped past Sakura towards the festival’s entrance/exit, a nonverbal cue it was time for them to leave.As they walked out, Sakura adjusted Arashi in her arms, shifting him to her right arm, and taking gentle and firm hold of Naruto’s right bicep. Just for fun, she squeezed it, allowing herself a moment to savor her husband’s musculature. Naruto immediately turned to grin at her, a grin she returned and they both chuckled. Fortunately, the kids were all too tired to notice mom and dad having an ooey-gooey lovey-dovey moment.They slipped from the festival, passing under the gate, using their ninja training, which was kind of unfair, given they lived in a ninja village, but all’s fair in parenting. Sakura commented on her feet hurting, anyway. But she followed that by talking about her night, watching Arashi also try his hand at catching goldfish, but failing as well. Since that was the only game he seemed to be interested in, Sakura didn’t try to play others with him. He did enjoy the art stalls, staring at the ukiyo-e carvings depicting great battles between the great clans and the exploits of his mother and father. But he spent most of the time gazing at the depictions of normal street and family life. Not out of a desire for something “normal”, but seeing people live their lives carried greater weight and meaning than depictions of war and violence.Or, as he put it in his limited toddler vocabulary, “Lookit all da people! So cool!”The way home was gently lit with sparse paper lanterns. Despite her complaints about her feet, Sakura did not complain one bit, instead nuzzling her husband’s arm, and admiring how cute their daughter was, even though they both knew she was going to cause a lot of trouble in the future. But they needn’t worry about that.There was nothing like the present to just exist in, here. Naruto and Sakura were never the perfect couple, but who could be? Given that Naruto had listened to his lovely wife proudly tell the story of Arashi’s adventures among the art stalls with a loving grin, proud of her pride and proud of their son. A relationship is not based on kissing. Kissing is a way to show affection. But Naruto and Sakura’s relationship, built on their mutual admiration and trust for each other, was so natural that at some point, their friends made those two dumbasses kiss to finally realize, yes, they really did love each other.And here they were, 7 years into their marriage and 6 as parents, and still happy, judging by the way Sakura laid her head on Naruto’s shoulder, enjoying his presence.They took the long way home so they could savor the moment, but the moment ended too soon, and they were back home. Once inside, they shepherded the kids upstairs. Hanami and Arashi both had to be woken up, and neither of them were happy about it one bit. But Shinachiku led them to the bathroom, ignoring Hanami’s toddler groans. Both parents watched proudly as Shina helped his sister and brother brush their teeth, wash their faces and get dressed for bed. Those yukata did not make great pajamas.And now mom and dad stepped in, putting the kids in bed, pulling the covers up, kissing them nighty-night, and closing the door in their darkened bedrooms, Shinachiku and Arashi sharing one and Hanami had one all to herself.Finally, exhausted from the day, Naruto and Sakura retreated to their bed.With a great big sigh of relief, Sakura tore her sandals off and tossed them aside. Then, she undid her ponytail. Naruto looked just in time from brushing his teeth to see her like this. His heart immediately began to beat as he drank in his wife’s beauty. A lot of people asked him why he didn’t marry Hinata, or Ino, because of their beauty, but neither of them were beautiful like Sakura was in her own way. Gods, he loved her.He spat out his toothpaste and sauntered up to her, curling his arms around her midsection and kissing her neck. She giggled, then moaned, signaling to him that she had the same idea he had. At first, it was hard to be intimate. Taking care of baby Shinachiku almost overwhelmed them, but by the time the Terrible Twos were over (and a little help from grandma Mebuki, grandpa Kizashi, uncles Kakashi, Iruka, and Gaara), Hanami and Arashi came next. Should tell you what you need to know.Naruto gently loosened Sakura’s obi and slipped part of her yukata off her left shoulder, which he hungrily kissed, drawing a combination of moans and laughs from Sakura. Sweet nothings passed between them until Sakura turned around in his arms. She ran her hands through his thick hair, which had grown out to make him resemble his father to an extent but still retained his essence. Then, Sakura pulled him close, smooshing their lips together and sticking her tongue inside his mouth.The kiss lasted several moments until Naruto knew it was time to get the show going. Sakura may have been tired, but she was eager and ready to go. He picked her up bridal-style and placed her on the bed. Then he climbed atop her sharing a half-lidding gaze with her until he kissed her again, coping a feel on her left side.When it was all over, and they tucked themselves in, covering up their uh, natural-ness, they did the usual cuddling, enjoying the feel of sweaty skin on sweaty skin, gazing into each others’ eyes. Their first time was awkward as hell, but their second time felt better and by their third time, they knew exactly what they were doing. Now each time was special in its own way.Tomorrow, the daily grind would resume. But each day is a new adventure, and there’s no time like the present.
My Wife Became the Hokage! (3/3) [NaruSaku],Ore no Tsuma Wa Hokage Ni Natta Dattebayo! Chapter 3/3: One More DayIt is Uzumaki Shion's birthday today. In the life of a young child this usually gives way to excitement and joy, being congratulated, receiving presents, birthday cake, songs and the like. For Shion-chan, however, the experience has been different for the whole of her life. It is not like her okaa-san and the others never threw a party, they totally did that. But after all the festivities, all the candles being blown out and all the songs being sung, there always comes a moment when the last drops of confetti hit the ground and an eerie silence lays over everything. In those instances Shion-chan looks into the faces of the adults around her and sees a bitterness in their smiles, something that even a kid like her is able to decipher. Usually this means that it is time for her and her okaa-san to get up, get dressed and leave the house, to go to that place and visit that person again. They step out into the cold of the fall, followed by her mother's bodyguards Sai and Ino-neesan. Together they walk quite a while, past the familiar houses of Konohagakure, past families preparing themselves for the coming winter. Kiba's son helps his father chop wood for their homey fire, Kurenai Mirai helps her mother sweep up the last remains of the auburn leaves on the ground. Shion-chan fastens her grip on her mother's hand as they walk past. They go outside the village vicinity, to a somewhat remote grove, their destination. It is a serenely quiet place, with only the cruel winds forcing the almost barren treebranches surrounding them to creak here and there. I know that Shion-chan hates this place because it makes her mother feel bad. She can see that, even though Sakura's trying to hide it. Some part of Shion thinks it cruel that they have to interrupt all the birthday celebrations to go to this boring and uncomfortable place. But the other somehow accepts that it has significance, that is is something the both of them have to do, even though the young child cannot fully comprehend. That is why it is okay for her that they always come back here, every year, on Shion's birthday. In fact, they are there right now.Ino and Sai give the Hokage of Konohagakure and her daughter some privacy, as Uzumaki Sakura kneels down on the grassy ground in silence. She waves a hand at Shion. "Come over here, please." Uzumaki Shion kicks the trunk of a nearby tree a couple of times and snorts. Her mother waits patiently with an outstretched arm until she ultimately decides to leave the tree be and make her way over. Shion wants to kneel next to ther mother just like an adult would, but Sakura's soft motherly arms embrace her and pull her in. Shion does not resist and snuggles close to the familiar warmth of her mother. "Uwaah... It's getting cold, isn't it?." whispers the child with pretend casualness. The Hokage of Konohagakure kisses her daughter's forehead, but doesn't respond.On the day of Shion-chan's birth all hell broke loose in Konohagakure. It was around the time that Kakashi-sensei openly discussed stepping down from the office of Hokage. It would be the end to a reign of peace and stability (which was only troubled once, as it came to the public eye that the Hokage had used state funding to found the revival of the classic "Icha Icha" book series.) Kakashi-sensei's decision to the leave office naturally led to speculations about his succession surfacing and the people of Konohagakure began talking. Because of all the stuff I had been part of so far, my name was mentioned more than a few times. I cannot say I wasn't proud of that. I didn't announce my candidacy publicly, but Sakura and I were almost certain my long lingering childhood dream would finally come true. "You will make our baby proud, I'm sure." she said one evening. I had just come home from doing the paperwork after a solo mission I had been on. It would be my last for now. I wanted to be there for my heavily pregnant wife and stay with her until the baby was born. She was in our living room, studying some medical scrolls on childbirth. "What about you? Will you be proud of me?" I smiled and leaned in over her shouler. We kissed. "You know I don't care about any of that, really. I'm already proud of you. Look at what we have accomplished together!" She gently touched her belly. For the moment, we were silent, both bathing in the warm feeling of a common home that would soon be full of youthful life - a life that only existed as a result of the love we shared. Sakura spoke again, teasingly. "Maybe Kakashi-sensei will choose Shikamaru! I mean, he's much smarter than you after all!" She laughed and I playfully poked her in the side. "Hey, I'm the one telling jokes around here!" I sat down next to her, looking over the scrolls. Pregnancy and childbirth are insanely complicated, even in this day and age. Most of the stuff in these scrolls just went straight over my head. Maybe she was right, and Shikamaru was smarter. He most definitely was. Sakura put a finger to her chin and looked up. "Or maybe... maybe Hinata should do it. You know, because with her international expertise, she's become so well-known in all the major villages! Maybe it's time for a woman to take the reigns again, it's been such a long time..." That thought triggered something in me. "Hey, by the way, guess who's just arrived in town today...?"Tsunade-baachan, Sakura's teacher in the arts of heeling jutsu, came back to Konohagakure to help her former student to deliver the baby as properly as possible. The former Hokage (who, thanks your rejuvenating seal, still turned people's heads even though in her 70s) returned after a long while of travelling the shinobi world with her companion and friend Shizune. When we bade them welcome at our house, we were surprised to find a third woman among them. This woman was draped in the beige garments of the medical shinobi, with raven black hair and a rather young-looking, heart-shaped face. You could say she was quite cute, but through the example Tsunade-baachan I learned not to trust the outside appeal of a medical shinobi! She greeted us politely, bowing deeply. "Oh, this is Hikage-sensei. We met her during our journey. She is one of the experts I wrote you about, Naruto. She will thankfully help us in the proceedings." As Sakura began gaily chatting with Shizune and the newcomer, I saw a flash of seriousness come over Tsunade's eyes as she looked over Sakura's shoulder at me. We had been in contact beforehand. Both Tsunade and Sakura alone were expert healers and a normal childbirth wouldn't pose a problem to these two incredible women. However, there was another matter to take into account. These "experts" Tsunade mentioned had been researches on the field of jinchuuriki physiology. I had asked Tsunade to look into it, because I was concerned. The fact that I carried Kurama, the nine-tailed fox, and his chakra withing me had seriously changed my body in many different ways. I had never heard of a Jinchuuriki having a child, so I had no idea what would happen. It was just a measure of feeling secure, but I really wanted to be sure nothing happened to my wife and my unborn child due to my messed up body. It was because of this that, after careful consideration and debate with both Sakura and the Kakashi-sensei, that we decided to set up a medical tent in a secure grove outside the village. People still remembered that Kurama's raw chakra had wrecked the city back when I had been just an infant and the Kyuubi had been sealed inside of me. It was not like we were expecting this kind of stuff to happen again, but everybody involved agreed that it would be sensible not to risk anything.,"Oh. I think the contractions just started." said Sakura casually, as she felt her belly, as if it meant nothing extraordinary. We were just setting up the final touches to the medical tent as my wife spoke thusly. I stood motionless in my tracks, as I was right about to put down another crate of medical utensils. Now, after everything, I heard Tsunade-baachan and Sakura reminisce about this day, melancholically laughing about my alleged nervousness, telling stories about how I "completely lost my composure" when it started. I'd strongly contradict these assessments. As I remember it, I was sturdy and stable, like a strong and resilient oak in a thunderous storm. Less nervous and more... excited? In a stable and strong way! "D...D...D...D...Does th..that m...mean... it.. it..." I spoke. "Finally! It's beginning! Alright, Shizune, would you please help Sakura-chan lay down over here. We're doing this just as planned!" Tsunade immediately took the lead while I was still gathering my thoughts. As Shizune held Sakura by the hand and led her to the bed, Tsunade turned to me: "And you..." She just looked at my shaking body, then winked an eye: "Just try not to be too much in the way, boy, okay?" She was about to turn away from me again, as I wrenched myself out of my stupor and uttered: "Are you sure there are not going to be any... complications?" She grinned mischieviously. "Will you look at that? Mr. Reckless has finally grown up, I see." She could perceive that I was not much comforted by her sass, so in a heartbeat she turned into the professional medic sage she was known to be: "Listen, so far everything is completely as normal as it gets. The chakra in both Sakura and the girl are in perfect unison." "Wait a minute... "the girl"?!" "Sure, you can tell by the chakra the child is... Wait a minute..." Tsunade looked over at Sakura. "You didn't tell him?" "Sorry, honey!" Sakura was now lying on the bed with Shizune and Hikage-sensei tending to her. Her pinched lips told me that she was now feeling the contractions getting stronger. "You said you didn't want to know the gender, so..." "A girl..." I mumbled, as I felt all my footing slip away from me. "Hey, Naruto, don't faint on us yet!" I heard Tsunade-baachan's voice as she gripped my shoulder firmly. "It's going to be alright."On that night, however, dark clouds gathered over Konohagakure. At first I didn't notice anything, as I was bound to stay by my wife's side inside the little medical tent. Sakura's labours took a long time and I was there for all of it, holding her hand, making everything as comfortable as I could. But what Tsunade had said before was true. Everbody involved down to the expectant mother was a complete professional, except for me. The woman by the name of Hikage-sensei asked Sakura a couple of questions and then came over to me. "Uzumaki-san", she whispered, "you look rather pale, if I may be so frank. This is going to take a while still, and I think your wife will not disagree if you took a bit of a timeout for once. Go outside and catch some air, so that you are in top condition when it really gets intense!" Tsunade, Shizune and Sakura all agreed with the researcher's proposal. I kissed Sakura on her gleaming forehead and pushed my wobbly legs outside of the tent into the cool autumn night. What awaited me there, however, shook me out of my stupor. A violent gust of wind cut my face as I looked up to see the sky as a mad vortex of dark, amethystcolored clouds, thunder and lightning. It looked like the end of the world out there. But that was not all. Around the tent, in which my wife was having our baby, I could spy a group of people, residents of Konohagakure, who had gathered around, all eyes fixed on me. A look into their faces, especially those of the elderly, proved that I had not been the only one thinking of possible side effects to the birth of a Jinchuuriki child. They remembered what had happened so long ago, what had happened when I was born, the night when the nine-tailed fox had destroyed half of the village. Nevertheless, I got angry. I screamed against the howling winds: "What are you standing around here for?! Have I not proven to you that the fox is not evil and that you don't have to fear the Jinchuuriki and his kin?!" A loud boom of thunder answered my outcry. The people were not moving and stood unmoved, with stony faces. They wanted to see, to hold vigil over the birth of another expected monstrosity. Their gazes reminded me of how they had looked at me when I was a child, when they had feared and hated me. Had everything I had accomplished for this village of ours been for nothing?! "Okay, people, time to go home! You heard the man, now obey your future Hokage!" a familiar, deep and passionate voice spoke out from the shadows. From a different corner another familiar voice spoke "People of Konoha, you should be ashamed of yourselves." A highpitched female voice said "We're here for you, Naruto." Several different shapes peeled off from the darkness and stepped between me and the crowd.,There they were. Many different people from all shinobi realms. "You've done so much for us, it is time we repay the favour", said Gaara of Sunagakure, his sister Temari nodding by his side. From Kumogakure, I saw the hulking form of Killer Bee, flashing a victory sign and grinning. "We're taking care of this!" said Hyuuga Hinata with a gentle smile that meant the world. "Ino and Sai are on the lookout and the others are on standby in the village. We'll make sure nothing happens to you, to Sakura, and to your baby!" What surprised me most, however, was the figure who stood in front of them, the man who had first spoken out. Uchiha Sasuke had come back to Konoha after years of absence. He looked different from when I had last seen him. And not in terms of his outward appearance. It is true that he looked a little haggard and unkempt with his long dark hair falling down his shoulders. But it was his expression that puzzled me. He seemed at peace with himself for the first time ever. With a gentle smile he said: "Go back inside, Naruto, your wife needs you. Let us take care of the rest!" It started raining. The crowd began to disperse, going back home to be safe from the intensifying storm. I looked at all of my friends. "Everybody." I didn't know what to say."Thank you. Thank you, I..." I felt drops of rain on my face, as new courage was rising in my chest. "Now, go already, you know I hate all this mushy nonsense." said Sasuke, in a tone more familiar to what I remembered from him, "and say "Hi" to Sakura from me!" I nodded, Sasuke's little provocation energizing me once again. "I will. Thank you." With these words I turned my back on my dear friends and the raging storm and went back inside.Meanwhile the situation inside had progressed. When I re-entered the tent I could see that Tsunade, Shizune and Hikage were already assisting Sakura in the final stages of delivery. I rushed over to be by her side in these critical moments. Through the pain, through the anxiety, through the frustration, I was with Sakura all the way. Finally, after what seemed an eternity of uncertainty, we were able to hear the faint cries of the little girl, a newborn crying out in astonishment over the new world she had just entered. Tsunade wrapped the baby up in soft linen and handed her over to her mother. Sakura gently held the rosy bundle to her chest, completely exhausted, but deeply relieved. I stood there and looked at the two of them. A spark, a radiance, a wave of deep felt love and peace emanated from mother and child. Sakura was entranced with the tiny wonder in her arms. Tears came to my eyes. Remember when I told you about the connections that humans build with one another? In that very moment, another such connection was forged. Sakura became a mother, I became a father, and the little girl became our daughter. Different from the days when we were boyfriend and girlfriend or husband and wife, we had now become one being, one unit, together in the most intimate of ways. I remember, I thought that nothing should... nothing could ever break this union apart. "Let me introduce you to your daughter", the young beaming mother said as she looked up for a moment. I huddled up to Sakura and looked closely into the infant's face for the first time. "Look at what we've done..." These words escaped my lips as I leaned over. I gently caressed my baby's forehead and she gently reacted to the touch. The presence of her mother seemed to have calmed her down instinctively. Her features showed signs of exertion, yet also expressed calm. Her eyes were relaxed and closed as if almost falling asleep. As I studied my daughter's face, however, something somewhere deep in my mind clicked and I became nervous. A cold trail of sweat ran down the back of my spine as I called to the group of medics behind me: "Tsunade, have a look at this, please..." The medical sage rushed over to the bed as she had apparently recognized the urgency in my voice. On my daughter's face, I could see the marks of the fox emerging. Those were the same lines I had born for all of my life due to carrying Kurama's chakra inside of me. "What is happening?!" cried Sakura, too exhausted to fully comprehend, alarmed by Tsunade's troubled expression. "It can't be... the chakra... it is..." The little girl started crying as from pain or fear. I could feel the chakra unfolding inside the little body. Unbound, wild, uncontrollable - it was the chakra of a fox. Around the kicking and screaming girl's navel I spied the familiar markings of the Fuuin-Jutsu that had once been used to seal Kurama within me. "I don't understand, nobody has tried to seal in anything!" I felt panic ripping my chest open, yet I tried to swallow it down, for my wife, for our child. Tsunade signaled for Shizune to calm down the confused and overwrought Sakura, who couldn't really grasp what was happening at the time. "The seal... somehow it must have been inherited alongside this... this new Bijuu. But it's not going to hold it!" I cocked my head up. "A new Bijuu? How is that even possible?!" ,The chakra inside my baby daughter went haywire, emanating to the outside, spreading through the chamber, spreading outside the tent, spreading across the grove, spreading across the first rows of houses, spreading across the whole of Konohagakure: nine gigantic tails of chakra. We were in fact witnessing the birth of a new Bijuu. The fox energy engulfed the city. People came out of their houses in confusion and terror as my friends tried to calm them down and reassured them that everything would be alright. Lightning crashed down from the sky and struck the Hokage's tower, as if to signify the end of all common known order. Inside the tent the sound of the crying baby was mixed with the now monstrous roar of the storm outside. Sakura almost went mad with fear. She hugged the baby tightly as the little thing continued crying and giving off chakra into the atmosphere. The medical tent was now ablaze with chakra of varying color and form streaming from the tiny bed. Sakura in her weakened and confused state seemed more vulnerable than ever before. The light went out and I felt like the whole world went with it. The life of the girl Sakura and I had both so happily expected for such a long time was in danger. And there was nothing I could do about it. A hand grabbed my arm tightly: "Don't panic now, my boy. There's something we can do!" Tsunade looked me straight in the face with a more than stern expression as she shook my arm. I looked at the outlines of the medic illuminated only by the glow of the foxes chakra in the darkness. We had to shout to understand each other against the mayhem unfolding. "I don't understand! I've become friends with Kurama, this shouldn't be happening!" "This isn't Kurama. It is a new fox entity! And just like any newborn life it is confused and lashes out at the unknown it finds itself in!" "What should we do?!" I exclaimed against the tumultous tempest. Tsunade held out one of her slim fingers and placed it on my chest. "We will transfer the entity. Good thing we have a Jinchuuriki here who knows a thing or two about foxes." She looked around for something. "It was actually Hikage-sensei who found the technique during her research! Where... where is she?!" I peered into the darkness. With all the flickering of chakra in the air it was difficult to make somebody out. Finally I found the small frame of the doctor who had specialized in the biological structures of Jinchuuriki. Something about that frame, however, seemed off. She was standing there without motion, stiff as a statue. As a spark of chakra floated by I got a glimpse of Hikage-sensei's face. "Something is wrong!" I shouted. She was smiling. But not the smile of the cute and polite lady I had met only a few days ago. It was grin that ran from one corner of her heartshaped face to the other, twisting her face into malignant, hideous grimace. I could see now that she was in a state of transformation. Her skin color went as white as bleach, as curious markings appeared around her eyes that now shone with the bright intensity of yellow bile. "There is a technique that only Hikage-sensei knew, that is correct." murmured the thing that had formerly been Hikage-sensei. Even though there was insane clamor going on around me, with the thunder crashing down on us, the chakra waves rushing out in constant streams, the howling and whining of the baby breaking my heart, I was sure I heard a sound unterneath all of the that: the sound of the hissing of a serpent.,"It is you..." I was at the same time aghast as well as enraged beyond my limits. There was no doubt about it. Even though now in the body of a female scientist of some renown, it had to be the infamous shinobi fiend whose powers allowed for a switching of bodies to so live forever and ever. There before us, in the darkness of the medical tent, with two giant snakes rising side to side, stood the person who had for all of our lives been nothing but trouble for me, for Sakura, for Sasuke. "This was your doing, Orochimaru!!" "Oh, not at all, not at all." Orochimaru sounded almost insulted. "No, this is what happens when you implant your Jinchuuriki seed into such an ordinary wench." Orochimaru's voice came from a different throat than usual this time, sounded soft and feminine, yet still recognizable as the coarse malignity rang through. "On the contrary, I am here to offer to you a solution to your problems. As I said before, you are correct, Tsunade, that this medical shinobi here knows about a solution. I found it myself, in her body." "Orochimaru!!" Tsunade clenched her fist and shouted in plain rage at her old comerade. She was furious to have been fooled for so long, travelling alongside the shapeshifter she hated so much. "I don't understand. You went through all this trouble to be here, in this very moment. Why? This would be the first time you'd ever want to help us. What's in it for you?" I tried to see through the mystification of Orochimaru's theatrical appearance before us. "Ah, yes. You see, it is very easy. As Tsunade already said, we can transfer the new Bijuu entity from the infant's body to yours. And that is a good thing. Nobody wants another Kyuubi going berserk, least of all me. However..." He made a dramatic pause that was quickly filled with the calamity of sounds around us. "However, it will probably kill you. Two foxes in one Jinchuuriki, one of them wild and cruel as chaos itself. You will never be able to handle it. Never in a million years. It will simply tear you apart from the inside. Which is fine by me. You'll die and the fox chakra will just follow you to hell. Consider this my payoff." Orochimaru's face once again turned into a grimace of scorn. I looked at Tsunade beside me. There had to be a better way. She looked back at me. Orochimaru spoke for her. "The old woman knows that there's nothing else we can do. It must be your body as it is already acquainted with the fox's chakra. And it must be now because... well, the Bijuu is almost born." Tsunade looked to the floor and shook her head in silence. Orochimaru had put me in an impossible situation. I gazed back at the bed, at a terrified Sakura, now fully aware of what was going on. To put it mildly, she was outraged: "You have to be kidding me! This can't be right! Don't you see that?!" Tsunade's eyes met mine with the no-nonsense severity that had made her a respected Hokage in her days. "I've seen the technique, it is possible. It is a technique requiring lots of meditation. I didn't... I just didn't know what it would do to you. Hikage-sensei said that it would work out... I..." Her eyes darted away again, leaving me alone with my distraught wife and child. I put my forehead against Sakura's. "Don't do this to me, to us!" she scried. The tears were now flowing freely down her face. I smiled through mine. She continued: "After all we've been through together, after all this stuff that we managed to get through... It is not fair! Remember, you are about to become Hokage like you've always wanted!" "Oh, that old childish idea." I smiled wryly, then contemplated for a moment. "I think you should do it. You are the most amazing person I know. You're the brightest, smartest, most beautiful and most funny woman I've ever known. I wouldn't know anybody better suited for the job. You'll be the next generation's Hokage." I gently caressed the baby's pink streaks of hair. "You are my dream. You've always been. The life I have spent with you, this child I was able to have with you. This is the dream that really mattered. I've realized that for some time now. And if I can protect that dream, I'm gladly going to do it. If I could spend just one more day with you and the little girl, I would gladly give my soul to do so. But I won't give hers. Never." Her voice broke down to a wimper. "Don't you leave me alone!" "I am not. I will always be there with you, every step of the way. You can believe that." I lifted my head and kissed her forehead. Not another word was spoken between us. "The procedure needs to start now, or it will be too late." hissed Orochimaru from the darkness. "I'm coming." I kissed my beautiful young wife once more and then turned to go. "Can I say one last thing, Orochimaru." I felt at ease. "What is it?" "If you think that after all of this is said and done, you'll have it easier from now on with your machinations, you're quite the fool. Over there lies the next Hokage of Konohagakure and whatever happens to me today, she's going to give you hell, for sure. Frankly, I think I would have been a much milder sparring partner." At first, the serpent shapeshifter didn't speak, but then uttered: "Oh, I will manage. I always do. Are you ready for the procedure?" "Yes," I said, "I am ready."The Hokage of Konohagakure, the one who followed into the footsteps of Kakashi-sensei, kneels in the wet grass with her daughter in her arms, feeling the warmth of the autumn sun's final rays fading against her back. It heralds the breaking of night over this grove, where once there had been a small medical tent, where once a new Bijuu had almost been let loose into the world. "Mother?" Shion-chan asks, looking up from her lap. "Yes?" Uzumaki Sakura answers as if snapping out of a long dream. "I think I'll try and wake him up!" With a jolt Shion is on her feet, leaving her mother behind. "Hey, wait a minute, you can't...!" Shion doesn't hear. I feel tiny hands ruffle through my hair. Tiny arms pushing against my sides. Tiny fingers pinching my cheeks. Tiny legs kicking my calves. A tiny voice whispering in my ear "Come on, father, wake up! It's my birthday today!". Today is Shion's birthday, but it is also yours, my friend. I've told you everything I can. When you came here into this world seven years ago you were angry, afraid and didn't know what to do. You felt alone and abandoned, in an unknown world, in an unknown body. Your chakra burned in my veins for all of these seven years that I've been in this very spot. I hope I was able to show you that you're not alone. Never. I hope you can now understand what building connections means by our example. I once had a dream of becoming the very best Hokage that ever lived under the sun, but that was a folly. Only because I found bonds, trust and love, did I make it through all of it. I need to see Sakura and Shion-chan with my own eyes for a change. I hope by now you can understand why. Let me go to them.Blinding whiteness. A feeling of nothing. Then a feeling of something. Tiny at first, then gaining form and color. The fox chakra receding into the back of my consciousness. Talk to you later, friend.I open my eyes for the first time in a very long while. I breathe in the cold air and shiver with excitement as the blood begins pumping in my veins again. I look ahead at my loving wife and my beautiful child. I look at my true dream.,Epilogue: Something slithers through the wet grasslands surrounding the Konoha area. Through the tall grass above its head, the elongated body of a small creature of malice finds its way straight as an arrow. It has a message to deliver. Over rivers and hills the serpent crawls on with supernatural speed. Soon it finds its destination as it arrives in front of a tall mountain towering over the grasslands of the farther Konoha area. The snake squeezes through the small cracks in the barren wall of the mountain and enters the hidden lair of the Tsuki no Me no Suhai. It follows the trail through a camp in which desperate men and women work on the execution of a plan long in the making, leading to the tent of the leader. Inside it is welcomed by a black robed woman standing alone over scrolls and schematics spread out across the table in front of her. The woman picks the tiny snake up with fingers that are as white as porcelain and lifts it up to her ear. Her shiny yellow eyes widen as her brows furrow. The message is delivered. "So, he woke up, after all. Much sooner than expected." As she allows her serpent spy to slither away into the darkness, the woman's face twists into a grimace as two giant snakes begin to hiss behind her menacingly. "We'll be ready."________________________________________________________________________ Short Disclaimer: All characters from the Naruto series are the property of Kishimoto Masashi and Shounen Jump.

My Wife Became the Hokage! (2/3) [NaruSaku],Ore no Tsuma Wa Hokage Ni Natta Dattebayo! Chapter 2/3: To Everything There Is A SeasonUzumaki Sakura takes step after step down the long staircase exiting the Hokage's office as a cold gust kicks up the auburn leafs at the foot of the stairs. Once again the autum of the year oversees the dying of bloom and petal in Konohagakure. She clings to her red coat and braces herself for the cold. I can perceive tension on her face, which is almost hidden underneath the red head piece with the long white veils. To the outside world this garment signifies who and what she is - the Hokage of Konohagakure. She takes a few steps outside and inhales the fresh evening air, waiting to be attended to. When the Hokage of Konohagakure walks through the streets of the village, she is always accompanied by the Gohei Shoutai, the elite guards shielding her from potential threats to her life. Konohagakure is a peaceful place now, after all this time of fighting and warfare. Yet, everlasting peace and harmony soon proved to be unfeasable. Extremist groups like the "Tsuki no Me no Suhai" have already assaulted many of those, whom they deem responsible for the failure of Uchiha Madara's plans during the Shinobi World War. Uzumaki Sakura is one of those people, which is why, as soon as she exits the building, her trusted friends Yamanaka Ino and Sai are by her side immediately, forming this generation's Gohei Shoutai. After surviving the war, these two had continued to serve the interests of Konohagakure under Kakashi-sensei's leadership. The post-war world had been in need of creative solutions, and a man whose ninjutsu allowed him to create tangible constructs out of drawn pictures and a woman whose sensory perception allowed her to probe people's minds proved to be essential to Hokage Kakashi's plan of stabilizing the region. Both had grown so much in the process. Sakura looks from one face to the other and manages to nod and smile at them, as she bids them to follow her home. Both shinobi reply likewise. Even Sai, who has always had a tough time grasping the concept of emotions, emotes something akin to warmth and trust. Sakura touches Ino's arm and you can just feel the bond that has always connected the two of them through the years, from rivals, to friends, to close personal confidantes. While Sakura turns around to leave, my gaze remains on Sai and Ino a little longer. With Sakura's turning the smiles vanish from the faces of the young gohei shoutai shinobi. Ino leans over to Sai to whisper something as they both slowly follow in the appropriate distance from their Hokage. "It is that day, today." Ino says to her partner. Sai looks at her and walks on without a comment to make. "Man, it must be so hard on her. I wish I could do something. It is not fair. It's just..." Ino wipes sudden glistening tears from her eyes as she's choking up. Sakura is not supposed to notice that everybody feels for her, on this specific day in particular. As I look closer at Sai, I spy his hands clenched into fists, expressing emotion in his own way. He has always been so different from Ino in regards to this. She tends to openly express her emotions, trying to be true to herself at all times, allowing for vulnerability to show. Being around someone like Ino for so long has changed him a lot from the cold, emotionless operative for the Anbu that Sai had once been turned into as a child. His fists unfold and he gently puts a hand on Ino's shoulder, giving her the soft and steadfast emotional support she needs. His cool level-headedness always keeps her grounded in situations like this. Through the years these two have been through a lot together and seen a lot of stuff going down. But in spite of the odds, in spite of them being completely different from one another, in spite of the darkness they had to face, they formed their own bond that is intimate and true. As horrible and devastating as this world always proves itself to be, as much as humans have the great potential for cruelty and suffering, bonds like this are what illuminate the human potential, making the whole struggle all worth while. This is something that I still believe in from the bottom of my heart, even after everything that happened. I hope to be able to convey to you, what that really means. Suddenly feeling like an intruder in this tender moment between my two friends, I focus again on my wife walking gracefully and ahead in the distance, bravely heading towards home.Haruno Sakura and I had been the first couple of our peers to get married. It was during a strange time of calm after the storm. After all of that complicated Madara, Obito, Kagura business was done with, we all returned to the comforts beyond the hidden leafs of home. Even Sasuke stayed for a short while, although he needed some serious convincing. Him, Sakura and me had been the last line of defense when the Tsuki no Me Keikaku plan went into action and everyone else was spirited away to a world of endless dream and illusion created by the Mugen Tsukuyomi genjutsu. The three of us, the original Team 7, were there when the immortal Kaguya unveiled her true malignant power. While everybody else had drifted away under the genjutsu of the everlasting Eye of the Moon, the trust and love between us had kept us fighting till the end, until we managed to take down even an almost divine power such as Kaguya. The genjutsu was undone, the illusion broken and the three of us, exhausted beyond any conceivable limit, lay next to each other on the rocky ground, still warm in the afterglow of the grand battle. I remember looking over at Sakura, reaching out to hold her hand with the little chakra I still managed to stir. I felt the tender touch of her hand as she held mine, both us of beaming in the joy of having overcome this impossible obstacle. As I reared my head around to look for Sasuke, however, I realized that he was in the act of getting up to leave. Under the strain of his body, he could only move very slowly, shaking while standing up to slip away into the shadows once again. Unable to move myself, I looked back at Sakura and we both nodded at each other. She got up and went after him. What was spoken there, I cannot say, but she succeeded in convincing him to come back home, back to that place that had meant so much suffering to him in the past, but that could mean so much more to him in the future, back where he belonged. And he stayed. For a couple of years, in fact.Hatake Kakashi-sensei, our former instructor, commander and dear friend, had become the Hokage, succeeding Tsunade's reign. After the tribulations of the shinobi world war, the old lady in the young body had set her eyes on new goals, travelling the Shinobi Godaikoku with her trusted confidant Shizune, to research new healing jutsu and help rebuilding trust everywhere. As I told you earlier, under Kakashi-sensei's usual calm and collected leadership, Konohagakure became one of (if not the) strongest proponents of diplomacy and reconstruction of trust between the shinobi nations, setting the stage for a much more peaceful, much more balanced world for everyone. Still, as there are until this day, there was violent opposition back then to this plan, posed by people who admired jerks like Madara or Orochimaru, people who endangered this project of peace in our time. During those years it was us, Sakura, Sasuke and me, Team 7, that managed to bust those who would endanger the innocent and break the peace that so many had had to die for. We soon became the most famous faces in the village, rising in the shinobi ranks quickly (not that we needed more fame, really, defeating Kaguya had already made us kinda infamous). It was after a specifically difficult mission in the midsts of a hot summer, in which we had to protect a small town near the border to Kaminari no Kuni and where Sakura's planning and skill had ensured that there were no casualties on either side, that Hokage Kakashi unexpectedly called us to him. Everybody was there, as the Hokage honored Sakura with special accolades that only few medical shinobi from our village had ever received. I remember everybody being proud, clapping thunderous applause as Sakura, in her own unique way, was blushingly trying to wave it off. I also remember looking to the side, seeing Sasuke standing further back in the crowd, sticking out of the merry group in his usual, not-too-happy not-too-conglaturatory state of mind. He had still been a grumpy dude, even though his new life in Konohagakure had softened him up immensely. But on that day he seemed different, I felt. The way he looked at the cheerful crowd with the beaming Sakura in the middle, accepting the honors, felt strange to me. He seemed at once content, but also unruly, as if something suddenly had come to him, something that was inevitable, something that he just had to accept. I was taken out of those observations, however, by an overjoyed Sakura, who came over to hug me as I promised to have her out for dinner tonight, to celebrate. Giving my girlfriend my complete attention now, I turned around one last time to see that Sasuke had vanished from the great hall.,It was already night-time when I arrived at the ramen place. I remember how the full moon looked down on me accusingly. I had done so much to get together with the girl I loved and now I kept her waiting on such an important day! I entered the premises and paid my respects to the chef. From the corner of my eye I could see that Sakura was already seated, so I rushed over and gave her a quick peck on the cheek, before taking seat right next to her. I expected some emotional reaction from her, since such public showing's of affection were still a thing that she was getting used to. Yet, my cheeky little kiss didn't seem to stir her much. In fact, I realized that my girlfriend didn't react to my being here at all, just staring into thin air, not even looking at me. She seemed really mad about the lateness of the hour. I gulped and readied my best defense case: "Hey, I know you're angry that I'm late, and yes, you have every right to be, and I apologize, but you see, I..." My words fell flat to the floor and the flow of my ramblings stopped when I took another closer look at her. In the pale moonlight I once again saw what a beautiful young woman Haruno Sakura had become, a serene otherworldy beauty that lit up the darkness around her. Yet in her eyes, which were focusing on nothing particular on the floor in front her her, I saw that the light was dimming. "Oh, no, you're okay, it's fine..." she mumbled, still gazing into the nothingness to her feet. Her countenance betrayed her consoling words as I saw the old familiar sadness reappear - that old familiar sadness that I had vowed to drive away forever. I immediately understood. "Sasuke's gone." I said, asking and confirming at the same time. "Yes. He is. Went away a couple of hours ago. Didn't say goodbye to anyone," she uttered calmly, "of course." In a second I was on my feet, my eyes blazing: "Then there's still time! If we pack our things now we can still get to him!" She finally turned her head to look at me and for the first time in a long while I was unable to read those deep emerald eyes of hers. "Come on, we have no time to lose!" I exlcaimed, puzzled by her calm demeanour. I turned and was already on my way out, when I felt something grip my wrist firmly from behind. Confused, I looked over my shoulder and there she was. Sakura looked straight at me, the green of her iris illuminated by the moon, now emitting true conviction, all the sadness suddenly washed away from her face into the moonlit night. Her grip around my wrist tightened, preventing me from taking off once more. She was not going to go.,The warmth of this comfortable summer night mixed with the heat rising in my cheeks. "What are you doing, Sakura-chan?! I don't understand! You know how he is, you know he doesn't mean it! We have to go and..." She layed her right index finger on my mouth and stopped my yapping. I was completely taken aback, as the serene moonlight unveiled a calm and collected smile on that beautiful face so close to mine. "No, we don't." she said, not a trace of insecurity in her voice. "No, we don't. Sasuke is being Sasuke. It is time we stop forcing him to be someone else." My eyes grew wide with confusion. "But... But you always said that...!" "I know. But I am making a choice right here, right now. I am my own person, and I am making a choice." The words came out of her as if she had practiced this speech a million times before in her head. "You see, in the past years with you I found out a lot about myself, about what I think I want my life to be. And... And I I choose your kindness, your unfaltering loyalty, your passion, your goofiness, your incredible stubbornness, your clumsiness. Your heart." Her finger softly slid away from my lips, down my cheeks, which were burning red with the realization of what was happening. "Say... Why don't we get married?" whispered Sakura, as if it was the most normal, most everyday thing anybody has ever spoken. In the background of the restaurant, the ramen chef dropped his spoon to the floor in silent amazement, breathlessly waiting for how this would play out. My mouth gaped wide open for a moment, until my brain could understand what was happening. It seemed as if all those little instances in time, from my earliest youth to our common training together, to the hardships we went through together, all those things, had led her and me here, to this point. It just made sense. I brought my jumbled faculties in order so that I was able to answer: "Yeah... Why don't we?","I don't want to!!!" booms the voice of the young girl with the bright blue eyes, the soft rose hair and curious, fox-like markings on her face. Uzumaki Sakura, the Hokage of Konohagakure, is standing in the doorway of her own home, against the backdrop of the red and brown trees in the evening glow behind her. She is calmly listening to the clamour coming from the second floor of her residence. "Please, excuse me, Hokage-sama, the young Ojou-chan will be down in a minute!" Sakura nods at the apparently stressed maid, who emerges from upstairs, just to vanish again in an instant. Iruka-sensei stands next to her, the man who single-handedly raised me, the lonely orphan boy whom everybody else ignored or even feared. He waves his hand apologetically "Shion-chan's in a really bad mood today," he laughs at Sakura "but it is understandable, I mean..." His voice grows quiet. "I am sure she is aware of what day it is today." Sakura gives Iruka-sensei a gentle smile, making further excuses unneccessary. I am so glad that Sakura has somebody to help her with little Shion. And she couldn't have found anyone better for the job. This man has been through a lot of trouble with his own little troublemaker (yeah, me) so he has some idea of how to handle cases like this.The maid's harried voice can be heard again from the young girl's room upstairs: "Ojou-chan, your honorable Okaa-san is waiting downstairs, you need to get ready." "I don't want to go! I don't want to see him today, she should go and look at him herself!" cries the child. Iruka-sensei tries to make a step forward, trying to support the maid in this battle of wits, but my wife puts a hand on his shoulder, holding him back. "Shion-chan." She speaks not with the voice of a Hokage, but with the voice of a mother, loud enough so that it can be heard upstairs. "Please. It is very important for me that we go there today. Please, do it for me." says Uzumaki Sakura and I can feel her putting all of her gentleness and care for our daughter into these words. For a moment, upstairs is silent. Maybe the girl recognizes the severe plea in her mother's voice or maybe she is just afraid to anger her (she can be very scary if triggered, I speak from experience). Either way, after a couple of minutes in which the maid helps her slip into her best formal dress, Uzumaki Shion comes down the stairs, shyly smiling at the impressive Hokage waiting for her. Sakura squats down to look her in the eye, a gentle hand to the young girl's cheek, her green eyes glowing with warmth and care. "Better to put a coat on, dear, it's getting chilly outside."Shion-chan has grown into quite a rascal of a six-year-old. And I love her for that. Even at her young age it is clear that she is a free spirit who does not conform to any set notions or ideas and fights for what she deems the better way. The good thing is that she also inherited her mother's common sense, so that Iruka-sensei doesn't need quite as much patience this time as when he brought me to my senses back in the day. I am immeasurably grateful that he agreed to help when Sakura came to her wit's end with raising this kid alone. The memory of it always chokes me up. All things considered, I think they are managing quite well, even though it is an obvious strain on Sakura to be a Hokage and a mother at the same time.But I don't want you to think that my daughter is a monster! She is quite far from it, in fact. When she's not playing pranks or being a rebellious whirlwind, this young girl with her father's eyes and her mother's hair, her mother's intelligence and her father's wickedness, is the sweetest thing you can imagine, believe me. I wish I could meet her. Can you understand that?,When Sakura first told me that she was pregnant I literally fell off a tree. Sakura and I had been married for years then, living together as well as working together closely. People saw the two of us as the next generation of Konoha's Kiiroi Senko and Akai Chishio no Habanero, in honor of my parents, the former famous power couple, Minato and Kushina. Similar to them, our affection for each other helped us push our boundaries even further, leading to our public fame as the most promising shinobi for the future. The team we formed with our trusted friends Ino and Sai spearheaded Kakashi-sensei's course of action against all of the newly appearing threats in our time of reorganization of peace. The Tsuki No Me No Suhai were founded to bring back the illusionary world of the Mugen Tsukuyomi that people all over the world had witnessed, to forget about the harshness of reality and live on in a perfect dream forever. They performed assaults on established leaders of the shinobi world they deemed enemies to their cause. Representatives of this cult travelled from place to place, trying to pick up new followers with the promises of everlasting happiness in dream and falsehood. Because of their fanaticism, this often led to violent outbursts, the taking over of villages and towns, forcing people to support their ways. It seemed as if they were looking for something, as we often found intel about their representatives breaking into scroll archives, working through old genjutsu techniques. It was our assumption they were trying to recreate Madara's Tsukuyomi or to resurrect Kaguya. It was early in spring, during a scouting session for a hideout of this extremist terror group, when I learned about my wife's condition. In typical Sakura fashion she had fidgeted around all day without telling me what was up. Her secretive behaviour worried me, but there was the mission to focus on first and foremost. We needed to find out what they were planning. We were already circling in on the target, hidden in the trees surrounding the Tsuki ni Me No Suhai's camp, listening in to what the extremists were scheming. "Do you have sight on their leader?" I whispered over the Chakra Transmission Communication Device that connected me to my comrades. Sai and Ino were on the ground, hiding in the bushes close to the extremists' tents. "Not yet," came Ino's voice from the speaker in our ears. Sakura and I were high up in the branches of the trees, surveilling the situation. It was easy to hide behind the fresh green leafs and the newly sprouting blossoms, with only few buds yet unopened. I was worried about my wife's odd behaviour during the day, so I looked over just to find her showing her usual fierce determination. Two men of the Tsuki No Me No Suhai met underneath the tree we hid on, so we masked our chakra as best as we could. One of them looked very sad in a way, having walked away from the camp and the others. As he looked into the distance, past the tree we were hiding upon, I could see that he was rather young and haggard, with dark rings under his eyes. Then the other man joined him, apparently trying to cheer him up. This one was more stout and obviously older, with a grizzly beard. The older man put a hand on the younger man's shoulder. "Don't worry, we'll have the scroll soon. Kaguya-sama will make sure you see your family again." The young man looked up to him, with a melancholy in his eyes that I could feel stemmed from a lifetime of grief. "You're right. I tell myself that every day. As soon as the Mugen Tsukuyomi is done, I will be able to go back to that world. The war will never have happened and they... they will be there..." He looked into the distance again, longing for days long past and people long lost. Once again I was reminded of the fact that even the noblest of causes can be corrupted by the wrong means. I didn't agree with the man, but I understood his reasoning. Here I was, spying on this enemy of ours, someone who would drown the world in Kaguya's chaos, even if for his own noble cause. "Have I ever told you what I'm gonna dream of once the eye of the moon opens again?" laughed the other man, trying to cheer his comrade up. "Only a million times," said his melancholic friend and smiled, "and I'll tell you again, it's not something to brag about!" The other didn't pay him no mind and continued: "I'm gonna be the harem king of the whole Shinobi Godaikoku! All of these beautiful kunoichi will lie at my feet and I will choose my bride, first and foremost..." The melancholic man sighed: "I know... that former Hokage woman with the big..." "Indeed!" He laughed heartily and pantomimed the act of squeezing... well... let's say pantomiming something obscene. They trodded back to their campsite together, laughing, both full of their own dreams and I sighed. Not so noble, that other guy. Sakura's fingers touched my arm. "Yeah, that guy's the worst, isn't he?" I whispered. I turned my head slowly and saw her clear green eyes looking at me with sincerity. She signaled to Sai and Ino that we would be signing off our coms for a second. "Hey," she whispered close to my ear, "have you ever thought about... what you would have dreamed of under the Mugen Tsukuyomi genjutsu?" I was taken aback. That question came out of left field, I never really thought about it. In Kaguya's twisted dream world anything you wanted had been possible. I remember hearing from my friends what they had seen. I remember Kiba telling me he saw himself as the Hokage of Konohagakure. "Not a harem world, I assure you." I said, not really knowing how else to answer her. Her lips parted into a little smile. "Probably a world in which you're Hokage, huh? The thing you always wanted the most." I thought about it for a second but couldn't answer. I thought about how I had laughed when Kiba told me. What Sakura said made the most sense, I guessed. I would have probably dreamed of a world in which I was the respectable Hokage of Konohagakure. "Well, here's the thing..." she looked away into the trees, now blushing for some reason. "I have thought about it for a long time now. I think... I think I would have dreamed about a world in which we all could live happily together. In which we wouldn't be alone. In which we were allowed to have hope for a better tomorrow." My ears tingled, it seemed as if my wife wanted to say something important that had been on her mind for a long time. "I would have dreamed of a family... with you and me and... and..." she stopped, blushing even harder, unable to speak further." After a short interval of nothing, she started again: "I've been wanting to tell you, I..." "Don't tell me you want Sasuke moving in with us after all?!" I joked in deadpan bad taste. She rightfully punched me on the arm for that: "No, you moron, I'm... I'm pregnant with your child! There's... there's no doubt about it." I froze, my whole system coming to a standstill. Everything around us seemed to white out, the birds seemingly stopped their chirping, the leafs stopped the whistling of their endless song of spring. For a moment the ongoing narrative of this blue planet of ours held its breath. I just stared at her for a long and longer moment, when I suddenly realized that my grip on the tree was slipping. The surprise of her revelation had made me forget to focus my chakra! I slipped completely and fell, now totally blowing our cover. As I was noisily crashing down into the middle of the enemy camp with all those dangerous fanatics turning towards me, I could only hear Sakura's voice angrily shouting after me: "What kind of reaction is that?!" After Sai and Ino rushed in to help us, we quickly managed to clean the mess up, defeating and taking the Tsuki no Me no Suhai in for later questioning. I looked after them, as our support group led them away. The young haggard man with the tired eyes fixated me in a vitriolic stare as he was taken away. I made a note to talk to him at a later point. It felt weird, crushing his dream in favour of my own. That thought made me remember the cause for the chaotic escalation of this recon mission, what Sakura and I had discussed before, or rather, what she had told me. I looked at my wife, who was standing with her back to me, taking notes for a report on the incident. She seemed surprisingly small, suddenly, lost in the woods again. It had probably taken her quite an effort to come up with the right words to tell me and I had screwed everything up. My surprise and the ensuing mayhem had left her all alone in that vulnerable position she had put herself in. What was I supposed to do now? I had totally ruined the intimate moment of the happy celebration we were supposed to have and now it would be weird to suddenly break out in cheering. Or would it? A deep feeling of responsibility rushed over me, like an electric shock, I took a deep breath and I let go of all childish insecurities. I grabbed my wife by the arm and turned her to face me. The scroll she was scribbling on fell to the ground as I kissed her surprised lips and exclaimed: "I couldn't be happier, this is amazing news!" Sakura was flabbergasted to be suddenly plucked out of her work mode, but then smiled wryly: "You could have done that an hour ago, now you're... kinda late." Her eyes darted to the side for a second, then came back to face mine. I could feel tension in the air. She wasn't sure whether or not I really meant it or not. Falling off a tree was apparently not the most reassuring reaction to the news. "Are you kidding?!" I laughed and pulled her close and held her. "You see, I've only just begun!" I gently whirled her around. "I'm going to sing our little bundle of joy's praises till the end of days!" "What are you saying?" Sakura whispered, smiling with tears in her eyes. "I'm saying that I'm going to be there for the two of you every step of the way, this I solemnly swear!" We came to a stop, looking into each other's eyes closely. "Last time I heard you speak that kind of stuff with such conviction was when you first proclaimed to become Hokage..." I was taken aback by her words, but then shook my head: "I've never been as serious about anything as I am about this now! Let's see, here...!" I fell to my knees, putting my ear to her belly: "Is it a boy? Is it a girl?" Sakura laughed out loud, the tension completely falling in pieces to the soft forest floor. "No way, silly, you can't tell yet at this point!",It was the beginning of what should have been a happy family life for me, my love and our child.________________________________________________________________________ Short Disclaimer: All characters from the Naruto series are the property of Kishimoto Masashi and Shounen Jump. This work is a result of my deep frustration with the original manga's ending. The point is not to tell anybody what would have been better or what they should think to be right, but just what I in my innermost core would have liked to see!I have no idea what happens in Boruto, so everything that happens post Kaguya in this story is completely made up. The redesigns for their grown-up selfs were designed by myself. Let me know if you like these strange versions of our favourite characters, like long-hair Sakura, classic kunoichi Ino, shaggy Sai or bewhiskered Naruto.Uzumaki Shion is a character I created from scratch. Her name is based on the Japanese word for the flower Aster Tataricus, a soft purple flower which in Japanese tradition implies "remembrance of things past".
My Wife Became the Hokage! (1/3) [NaruSaku],Ore no Tsuma Wa Hokage Ni Natta Dattebayo! Chapter 1/3: The Road Not Taken I'm married to the Hokage of Konohagakure, the most influential person in the village and maybe the whole of the Shinobi Godaikoku. She's an amazing person, in fact, the most amazing person I know. She's bright and smart and beautiful and funny and... right now, pretty tired. Right now she's at her desk in the lonely tower of the rebuilt Hokage residence rising high over the rest of the buildings, signing a report by one of her top field agents. While she's skimming through the collected data the dark red traditional headpiece symbolizing the Hokage's power and status rests on the desk by her side, keeping watch. A soft breeze enters through the large windows behind her and playfully pushes pink strands of hair into her line of view, as if asking her to come out and play. With a quick gesture of the hand, the Hokage shoves it out of her face back in its place. She puts the heavy stamp down on the scroll after being done reading and hands it back to the agent in front of her without looking, already focused on the next task at hand, the next document to sign. Even though dismissed, however, the shinobi remains in place. "How are you doing, Sakura-san?" says the shinobi. Uzumaki Sakura raises her emerald green eyes from the papers in front of her and looks up into a face that betrays a strong sense of concern. Hyuuga Hinata's fine features show genuine sympathy, as is expected from such a compassionate young woman. She has come a long way, from that incredbibly shy girl she once was to the confident and reliable shinobi she is today. I still remember her always avoiding eye contact, blushing, hiding behind everybody's backs. Now she is looking her Hokage straight in the eye. Sakura smiles and tries her best to wave any worries away, sending Hinata off back on her mission with as much positive energy as she can muster to show. As soon as the door closes behind the dark haired woman, however, my wife sinks back into the comfy chair she inherited from her beloved sensei. A sigh escapes her lips as she lets her mind wander, looking outside over the busy streets, on which a tiny Hinata makes her way back to Sunagakure, where she is investigating some problematic developments. The road to the shinobi village in the desert is long and I hope that Hinata will get there safely. I wonder how Gaara is doing... Haven't seem him in a while now, myself. Hinata's report spoke about another resurgence of the cult of Kaguya, a troublesome terror cell calling themselves "Tsuki no Me no Suhai". Even though the Shinobi Godaikoku are at peace after everything that happened 15 years ago, there is still so much work to be done. Not only going after these dangerous extremists, but also keeping diplomatic relations going. The world had come together in a war against a common enemy, but this newfound mutual trust needed to be kept intact to face the new challenges ahead. This new age needed a new kind of shinobi, one that was able to defend the peace with force, but also one who could keep it alive with diplomacy. As Hinata slowly vanishes beyond the great Konoha gate, Sakura's eyes get that distant look to them, the one she has whenever she reminisces about the past. I believe Sakura is thinking about how different things were back then. Back when the shinobi world war ended, my wife and I were in the midst of things, still young and full of dreams. We had already been a couple by then and I believe it was only because of her that I was able to muster the strength to get through this dreadful ordeal. Now she's here, in the highest office of the land. I guess she never even wasted a single thought on becoming Hokage then, while I, silly me, thought it would be my be-all-end-all goal in life. Now... Well, let's say, things happened and priorities have changed. As they do when you grow up, believe it. I probably had been in love with for her as long as I can remember. My first memory of her is that of a cute little girl with curious eyes and a red ribbon on pink hair, neatly parted in the middle. A neat girl, well-behaved, walking past me holding her mother's hand, smiling without a care. Me on the other hand, I was a pretty rude, pretty noisy, pretty lonely kid. Now that I think about it, I guess it is no wonder that Shion-chan turned out the way she did. ,Things didn't change much when we entered our teens. All through my early adolescene I followed Sakura with my eyes, while she kept walking past me. I knew she was very special, even though she didn't seem to realize it herself. She thought of herself as some sort of average run-of-the-mill teenager and that's probably also why she did all the run-of-the-mill teenage things: gossipping with friends, being ashamed of her own body, crushing on the cool guy and hating on the stunts the class clown (that was me) pulled, even though he only came up with those mainly to reach out to her, to anyone, really.It was only after my travels with Jiraiya-sensei that I was finally able to fess up. The old hermit had taken me on a long pilgrimage to hone my chakra skills in total isolation. At first I thought that would not pose any problem, I was pretty much used to isolation after all. But at night, when there was not much else there besides the old ero-sennin's snoring and the twinkling of the stars in the endless void above me, her face appeared before my eyes. It wasn't the carefree face of her childhood any longer. I saw her sad smile, her dreams of fixing what had gone wrong, her hope to get through to Sasuke (the "cool guy" I mentioned before, remember?). He had kinda gone to the dark side and neither Sakura nor I had been able to change his mind. And that was killing her, I could feel that. After everything we had done to save him, Sasuke had left us behind. How could he do that to her? He had to know she cared for him... But how could she still care for him? It was all far too complicated for me. I grimaced and rolled over in my sleeping bag, trying to focus on something else. But all the chakra focus exercises I had gone through wouldn't help, I just couldn't get that face out of my head, that teary eyed face with that brave smile looking at me, telling me everything was all right when it totally wasn't. It was then that I knew: I would do what I could to keep her from suffering because I cared for her in ways that I hadn't even realized myself up to that point. I would be there for Sasuke because he was my friend. But even more so, I would be there for Sakura, because... because she was the girl I was in love with.After returning home to Konohagakure after what felt like a lifetime of isolation, training and travelling, Sakura met me at the village gate. I remember how alien I felt, coming home from a completely different world to feel the familiar warmth of Konohagakure again, coming home to see her. Even though I tried to act like a big shot, an all grown-up, all mature guy, I soon stumbled over my own words, now fully aware of my secret feelings for her. She laughed at my clumsiness and I realized she had grown into an even more beautiful young lady with a radiant and affectionate smile. It struck me, however, when in that smile I could again perceive that nuance of the old sadness. The old wound that Sasuke's departure had left was still showing on her countenance and it pained me immeasurably. In the following days we would see a lot of each other, as Sakura had decided to get me reacquainted with the old stomping grounds. We spent some time together visiting shops that had opened up while I was gone, eating at restaurants that had changed their menus while I was gone, seeing old friends that had continued with their lives while I was gone. I was just happy being around her so much, all the while I tried to play it cool as much as I could. One evening, me, her and a couple of friends went to see a movie in a theater that had opened up while I was gone. It was a flick about a guy who had been in an accident and had suddenly developed incredible amounts of chakra. He used that chakra to become a warrior for justice, an actual superhero. While the main plot was all about his superheroics, the B-plot of the movie was dealing with his romantic attraction towards a girl he knew for a long time, but whom he could never confess to due to a weird sense of responsibility to never get her hurt. It was this plot point in particular, that Sakura talked to me about after we left the theater and our group of friends dispersed. She was gushing over how romantic that part had been, and that she really enjoyed how dramatic it was that the protagonist had had such deep feelings hidden inside of him. She laughed once more, once more a sad and hollow laugh, once more a laugh that was concerned with thoughts of that guy who had made her sad when he had turned away from her. "No", I said. "No, it's not romantic at all. It's not cool at all." She turned towards me, irritated at my weirdly serious remark. It was now late in the evening, the sun slowly descending over the horizon, turning its bright white rays into burning red. I felt the heat rising into my cheeks. I don't know where it came from, maybe something about that movie had triggered it, maybe it had been my subconscious plan all along. One thing was for certain, I was about to confess. And so I opened my mouth, trembling profusely. ,And all the truth came spouting out just like that. I just couldn't take her beating herself up about it any longer. She didn't deserve this and I didn't care about pretense anymore. I just needed to tell her. She stood there and took it - all of my childish, clumsy nonsense. All the feelings pent up for so long now were grasping for words and sentences to be understood. After a while it stopped. With no more hidden truths and feelings left in me, my mouth stopped spilling them out and both of us just stood there in silence. At first I was too scared to open my eyes, but then I did. Sakura was still standing there as if struck by lightning, with the burning red sunset against her back. The evening winds were softly carressing the silky pink hair that framed a face full of bewilderment. Her eyes were wide and gleaming with tears, her cheeks flushed beet red. I myself stayed dead serious and I think she knew I was. Her tension released as she began screaming unintelligle words of confusion and embarrassment back at me and then, with a sudden start, just darted off and ran away. The setting sun disappeared over the rooftops of Konohagakure and I felt a slight chill coming up. Not necessarily the reaction I was expecting. What had I done? "Listen, Sakura, Sasuke also is important to me, I know he's much cooler than I am and probably a better shinobi than me and so on and so forth, and I already promised that we're going to get him back. And we are! But please realize that I care for you a thousand times more than I care for him. You do not deserve to suffer, you deserve to be happy! You're the smartest... funniest... most beautiful and most wonderful person I've ever met and I want to make you happy and... and... I'd like you to be my girlfriend, please!!" That last part really just came out of nowhere. True poetry in the words of a bumbling, clumsy fool. No wonder she ran away.,Uzumaki Sakura gets up from her chair and closes the books. The afternoon sun is growing old over the roofs of the immortal village of Konohagakure. Before putting her coat and the Hokage's head piece on to leave, she stops in her tracks, her eyes locked on a photograph on her desk. On it you can see two young people, a young woman in her twenties with pink hair neatly parted in the middle and, next to her, his hand on her left shoulder, a young man of roughly the same age, chaotically spiky blonde hair, and an awkward but charming smile surrounded by curious markings on his face. The couple in traditional wedding gear is surrounded by their friends, all congratulating and making merry. "Today's the day" Uzumaki Sakura mumbles underneath her breath, as she puts down the memory and turns to leave the Hokage's office.Haruno Sakura returned to me only one day after the mishap of my confession. Not having slept for most of the night after, I was sitting under a tree, in the middle of listlessly, melancholically chewing on the leftovers of my cup ramen, as she suddenly stepped in front of me with a serious flicker in her eyes. I looked up from my cup to see her figure towering above me, tense yet resolute. Her green eyes expressed a wicked mixture of blazing bravery as well as uncomfortable awkwardness. Before I could even gulp down what was left of noodles and ramen in my mouth to apologize in any manner, she spoke: "Listen, Naruto, you've already convinced me that you have grown up enough to not be playing any tricks on others anymore... mostly... Please promise me that... that yesterday was not another prank and I'll continue!" The last remaining soba noodle dangled violently from my mouth as I nodded quickly with all the seriousness I was able to convey. She inhaled, her face flared and I could see her eyes grow slightly moist again. I swallowed the rest of my ramen in one slug. This was clearly difficult for her. I could see the inner turmoil raging in her heart. She seemed lost in the woods, between two different paths diverging in front of her, now having to find the road she truly wanted to travel down. That would make all the difference. We both locked eyes under the shadow of that tree, unflinching, with the leafs above us softly rustling with the winds of change. "Then...", her tense lips quivered, "Then... let's try it, let's try it..." She looked to the side, then back at me, painful honesty glaring from the deep green pools of her iris. Through the leafs a ray of light broke and illuminated her whole being. Her thin brows furrowed as she mumbled: "Why not, why shouldn't we..." I didn't even let her finish. Suddenly everything inside of me unleashed into one mad reflex. I believe I thought that if I didn't do that thing now, she would somehow slip away, somehow slide back into the shadows that she had kept herself in all this time. My hands dropped the cup ramen, it fell to the floor and rolled away into oblivion as I jumped up. That didn't matter now, nothing mattered now. The only thing that mattered was that I would now convey to her that her decision was right, that I would care for her with all I could give, that I had wanted to for so long, that it would be a mistake to go back to an unbearable status quo, that I could be the one she would be happy with. All of that I subconsciously put into that one reflex. No more words. ,I rushed closer and pressed my lips onto hers. Everything went white and insignificant around us and I closed my eyes. She was soft and warm, softer than anything I had ever felt. Later she told me that she was so taken by surprise that she didn't know anything anymore. For this short, sweet moment, she was completely blank, completely free of burden. We both instinctively felt that we had taken a step down the road not traveled before. As this moment of intense clarity passed, fire returned to her eyes. And with it, the wrath of embarrassment. She slapped me in the face with unbridled force that sent me flying. My body took off into the air in slow-motion, rotating like the fallen leaf of an autumn tree. All the while, as I was crashing into the grassy soil below, a big grin was fixed on my face. Beaming red, she exclaimed over my broken remains: "You... You moron!!! What... What were you thinking!? Just... Just because I said we... you... you didn't have to go and k... ki..." Her hands rushed to her face, holding onto her fiery cheeks. "Oh, this was a mistake!!" That's how we started seeing one another. ,Totally worth it. ________________________________________________________________________ Short Disclaimer: All characters from the Naruto series are the property of Kishimoto Masashi and Shounen Jump.
