Okay apparently even though it's in the description of the story. I need to tell you this story will make no sense what so ever if you haven't read the first story Breaking the curse. I actually put it on here for the people that have read Breaking The Curse. I want to thank everyone that read my story about Sasuke and Andrea. Though I didn't receive many reviews I have gotten a lot of faves off of it so thanks. I will simply take no news as good news. But, I just got a review from someone who said this one didn't have many cannon characters in it and I wanted to explain why. This is about the children that were born in Breaking the Curse. Thank you so much for the review now you will know why it doesn't make much sense to you….

Ch 1

Andrea heard mumbling. She frowned rolling over slowly. Sasuke was talking in his sleep; he didn't do that. She looked at him her eyes opening a crack.

"Olivia." He whispered. She raised a brow. He whispered the name again and groaned. She scowled. What the hell was going on in there? She sat up and watched him roll onto his back. "I love you Olivia. I miss you." The words sounded so sad and sincere.

She just watched him until she couldn't take it anymore and she got up. She walked out and the whispered words rolled around in her mind until the sun rose. She made breakfast for her children and sent them on their way. She was washing the dishes when arms slipped around her. She looked at his hands and her brain was still having a hard time wrapping around this. She turned and looked at his smiling face. He looked in her eyes and saw her anger. "What in the world have I done?"

"I don't know that's what bother's me."

"What?"

"Who exactly is Olivia?"

"Who?" He looked at her as if she had lost her mind.

"Olivia. You said you loved her and missed her. Who the hell is this person?" He looked around and frowned.

"I have no clue love, when did I say that?" He looked incredulous.

"Last night in your sleep." He scowled and looked at the ground.

"I don't know what your talking about and, I do not talk in my sleep, you do." He watched her angry face and felt the pain of her mistrust. "You must have been dreaming."

"I was not dreaming." She muttered.

He sighed. "I have to get to Naruto." He leaned down to kiss her but, she pulled away. He felt an instant of anger. He took her face. "Now listen, I don't know anyone named Olivia and I never have. You certainly don't think I have some woman on the side? Surely you don't believe that?" Andrea watched him and scowled.

"No, I don't think so but, you sounded so sincere." He kissed her hair. The anger slipped away as her realized it was jealousy that made her so angry.

"I have never loved another woman. Never, so stop worrying." He looked at her and smiled. "You are adorable when your jealous though." She sighed. He kissed her more fully and left.

Sasuke wandered into Naruto's office and he grinned until he saw his friends troubled face. "Hey what's up?"

"Oh nothing…" He frowned. Naruto raised a brow. "Andrea all but accused me of cheating on her." Naruto raised his brows.

"Not you?" Sasuke frowned.

"She was spouting off about some woman named Olivia."

"You need to talk your brother." Naruto sighed.

"What the hell are you talking about Olivia is not even a name here in our world at least I have never heard it. It is a name from Andrea's world." Naruto nodded.

"I know but, I used to have dreams about a woman named Olivia. Not the kind of dreams you expect when you've never done that." He raised his brows. "I can tell you that I have definitely never had those dreams, since he joined with you."

Sasuke wondered. Itachi. Hmm. He looked at Naruto and sighed. "I'll see you later I'm going to try to speak with my brother."

He wasn't even sure that was possible, damn it. Itachi had become a piece of him. He moved to the Hokage's faces and sat on Naruto's head. He pulled up his hands and concentrated. His eyes spun beneath his lids as he tried to look inside his own mind. It was quiet and peaceful not the raging storm of years past. "Brother are you here?"

"Yes." He sighed and moved into sight.

"I need to ask you something." Itachi frowned.

"I don't want to talk about Olivia; I'm sorry I got you into trouble I will try not to do it again." Sasuke watched him and frowned.

"Why are you worried about talking about her?"

"I'm not exactly, it's more that it's painful to talk about her brother. I loved her. More than I ever imagined I could." He sighed. She was so kind and beautiful. It was a dream that was what we thought. But, I was somehow crossing over to her world when we were both sleeping. He sighed and sat down.

"How do you know it wasn't a dream."

"Because she got pregnant." Sasuke's eyes widened. "I have a daughter."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"I didn't want anyone to know. She would be in danger. She lives in that world with her mother. I don't have to worry for her safety there." Sasuke frowned. What was he going to do about this? He sat down and ran his hand through his hair.

"We need to make sure she's alright." Itachi scowled.

"No she's fine."

"You don't know that. What if her eyes bloom? How old would she be now?"

"She was born the day we fought. But, time is different between here and there. I don't know how much different, it seems to depend on the person. And the mode of travel. Andrea for example it appeared the ratio was a day in her world to a month in this one. For us it was longer. I wish you would leave it alone."

"Brother don't you think you would like to know?" Itachi sighed.

"Of course I want to know but, I don't want her in danger. And, Olivia has probably forgotten all about me." Sasuke smiled.

"I won't interrupt her life I promise but, she is my niece I have the right to check on her." Itachi nodded.

"I would like to see her." He whispered softly. His eyes shining. She was so beautiful.

"It's settled then," He stood.

"You're just excited you can explain this to Andrea before she kicks you out of the house." Sasuke cringed.

"Exactly." He let go and leapt from the mountain. He landed and ran home to explain to Andrea…

Kanashimi stood and frowned. "Come on Minato is waiting with Konohamaru sensei." Orchid nodded and smiled.

"I'm coming Kanashimi." She jumped up to chase after the young man. "Do you think Konohamaru sensei will make us do the bell test?"

"I don't know." Kanashimi sighed. He was really hoping for a more experienced Sensei. His brother had had Neji sensei. He had Konohamaru. Of course he was very strong and had been a student of the current Hokage and his best friend's dad. "He'll have a test for sure. But, what it is I don't know."

They slid to a stop next to Minato. His pale eyes different from his mother's but, he still had a byakugan. Kanashimi's eyes had bloomed when he was fighting his brother. And then there was Orchid and her puppy a pretty thing she was snow white her eyes blue, one ear stood up the other flopped over. He looked at her big green eyes. Cat's eyes that was what her mother said which irritated her dad to no end. Dog he would say, not cat.

"Where is Konohamaru sensei?"

Minato frowned. "Who knows this sucks. We were supposed to have the test and then we could go on a mission." He leapt to the top of the training post and sat down. "He's always late. You'd think he learned from Uncle Kakashi." They all snickered at that.

"What was that?"

"Nothing sensei." Konohamaru grinned. He leapt to the training post beside Minato and ruffled his hair.

"Now lets see a test. I guess I should test you." He sighed. "I wonder what I should do. I can't use the bell test you've been warned too much about it."

Kanashimi frowned. "Actually that really isn't the point. It's simply to test our team work skills."

"Well since you are all best friends. There is no reason to test that is there?" They shrugged.

"I think perhaps a survival test instead. Go home and tell your parents I'm taking you to the forest for a few days then, pack only what you need." The children jumped up and ran.

Judy looked at her son and smiled. He walked in and set his bag down. His blue eyes fathomless but, his jaw was set angrily. "What's the matter didn't you have a good day at school?"

"I always do well in school." He said noncommittally

"That isn't what I meant Michael and you know it." He sat down and relaxed a little. It wasn't her fault he was having a hard time.

"I don't know I have a really hard time dealing with the people. They move too slowly and they all seem so…" He frowned. "Well stupid." He sighed. "I know you hate it that I say things like that but, mother I had to correct the teacher today. He was absolutely certain that he knew more about the circulatory system than I did then, we ended up in a debate and I ended up angry and had to leave because my eyes changed." He sighed and looked away. "Does father have these problems?"

"Yes I do but, we deal with them." Madara walked up and sat down. His suit made him look like a business man. Judy smiled at him, her heart racing. Never in a million years did anyone realize the man he truly was. His English was flawless. He simply looked like a beautiful man. Not a gray hair graced his now very elegant head. He had come to her world fourteen years before and she had given birth to her magnificent son nine months after the night they were at the beautiful silver pool. Her son had been born with pale blue eyes and his father's coal black hair. He had taken her small nest egg and turned it into a multimillion dollar company that bought companies in trouble and, either turned them around or sold them off for a profit.

She felt his hand on her throat and shivered still even after all this time she had never gotten past the way he made her feel. "Son we are not like the rest of the people in this world that move through their lives every day oblivious of the world around them. But, they aren't wrong they just don't understand. You mustn't get angry with them. Simply accept that they are not like you and move on." He smiled. "I had a very hard time when I first came here."

"He nearly killed them all in the first few weeks. He had no tolerance for their ignorance he called it." She sighed and leaned back into him. His thumb made soft circles against her pulse as he felt it speed up a small smile touched his lips.

"Michael why don't you go out and take care of the new litter of puppies. I have something I wish to discuss with your mother." He stood silently and nodded. Then he was just not there anymore.

She stood slowly and turned. "What did you want to discuss husband?" He looked at her and his thoughts caught for a moment but, he recovered pulling her into his arms.

"First I want to kiss my wife. I haven't seen you since Wednesday." She just watched him. His business took him out of town often sometimes; he would be gone a week or more. This time it had been three days.

She looked up at him and saw the hunger that had never waned. Never changed. He still kissed her with a passion that she didn't completely understand. She trembled as he pulled her slowly into his arms. "You seem excited my dear wife." He mumbled against her temple. "Did you truly miss me?"

"I miss you as soon as you walk out the door." She kissed his chin. "Before." He smiled against her skin and held her for a few moments.

He was still in awe that someone cared so much for him knowing who and what he was, that he still felt a little overwhelmed by it sometimes. He pulled her face back and kissed her deeply. "I missed you too." He whispered when he pulled away. "Now I want to discuss something you won't like but, I think it's important."

She looked at him and her eyes narrowed. "No, I don't want to discuss this. That world is dangerous and violent I thought we decided that we didn't want him to grow up that way." He smiled at her and caressed her cheek. He understood her fear. Madara sat down and pulled her into his lap.

"We didn't discuss anything. You cried and I couldn't bare it." He sighed. "We need to let him be who he is if he decides to live in this world then so be it but, he deserves the chance to make that decision on his own. In my world he is almost an adult. Itachi was a captain in the elite police force a year younger than him."

"That turned out so well." She muttered.

"That wouldn't happen now. You know that Naruto would never allow it. He and the other Kage have adopted a new way of looking at the world. It would not be as it was." She closed her eyes in pain.

"I don't want to be separated from my son." She whispered.

"We don't have to be. You know that too, when Tsunade stopped being Hokage; the oath was no longer valid. I can return if I wish." She frowned.

"But, you don't want to be there." He sighed.

"No I like it here. I like the peace I gain, from knowing there is no reason to fight here." He smiled. "But, Michael is being smothered; unable to be who he really is." He frowned. "I promise you if we do not allow him to be himself we will regret it. He is an Uchiha and we are very stubborn. He will find a way to be who and what he is whether we like it or not."

"How would we know he was safe?" She murmured against his shoulder. "I couldn't bare the thought of him in danger."

"Oh my love, he's in danger no matter where he is but, there he is in less danger of becoming what you fear the most." He picked up her chin and smiled. "He's in less danger of becoming me."

"I love you." She protested.

"You love the man I am now. You would not have loved the man I was. I became that man because I resented the world around me. He feels the same. We must not do that to him." He kissed her softly. "Please let him do this, at least ask him what he wants?" He cradled her face.

"We can talk to him." She sighed.

"That's all I ask." He smiled. His hands slid down to her waist and he pulled her forward his body aching. "How long do you think he'll be out there?"

"Not long enough to do that." She rasped as he slid against her. Her light summer dress and, his slacks not offering enough protection against his onslaught.

"Mmm…well that's too bad." He murmured. "I suppose I will just have to suffer." He left a hot trail of kisses up her throat to her ear. "Are you suffering as well." He smiled as she shook and whimpered. He stood and set her on her feet. "Well I guess I'll go and change. You should check that roast I think it might be burning. You should pay better attention." He walked out and heard the spoon hit the wall beside his head as he slipped from the room. His laughter made her frown then her mind moved to later when their son was in bed. She smiled slowly and checked the damn roast which of course was not anywhere near burning.

Naruto frowned. He hadn't felt that chakra in a long time but, he wasn't about to forget who it was. The door opened and Tenchi walked in. "You have a visitor Lord Hokage."

Naruto smiled. "Yes I noticed. Come on in."

The man walked in slowly. His hair cropped short and he wore a business suit. "Well haven't you changed." He grinned.

"Not that much." He smiled. "I have a request."

"Do you?" Sasuke slid in the door. His eyes were dark and solemn. "To what do we owe this visit?" He just watched him.

"We have a favor to ask?"

Judy walked into the tiny shop and grinned. "Where do I go to get the latest in fashion in this tiny village?" Carrie came out of the back and screamed. She ran to her and hugged her as best she could she appeared to be very pregnant. "Well you are looking very good."

"So are you. You look younger than me now." She sighed. "I suppose ol' evil puss looks young too."

"Madara looks the same I suppose different clothes and hair but, yes he looks the same. A girl walked out and looked at her.

"You must be Judy." She was exquisite her dark hair was long and her eyes were green but the irises were elliptical. She was incredible to look at.

"Yes I am and you must be Orchid." She nodded. "My son Michael is outside with your friends if you'd like to go and meet him." She walked to the window and looked.

Orchid sucked in a breath. "Is that him?"

"Yes."

"Wow he's well he's…" Carrie walked forward and looked. She shook her head.

"God help the boy. He looks just like the rest of them but, he has blue eyes. He's done for, they'll mob him." She pushed her daughter. "Go say hi. He looks pleasant." Orchid walked out the door slowly and, across the yard smiling shyly at them.

"I wish I could hear them." Carrie sighed.

"I'm worried." She turned to Judy and took her hand.

"Don't be. I can imagine why you're here and we would never let anything happen to him." Judy sighed and watched her son.

Michael looked at the girl that had hesitantly walked up. "You must be Orchid." She nodded. "Well I think we'll have a lot of time to talk I'll be staying here in Sasuke and Andrea's house so we'll be neighbors." He smiled and she had to stop herself from falling over. She had never seen anything like him before. She supposed Kanashimi looked a little like this but, there was something about his eyes that made her insides all mushy. Minato looked at her and frowned.

"What's wrong with you? You're usually talking up a storm by now." He looked at Michael. "We can't even get her to be quiet when she's supposed to be."

"Shut up." She said quietly. "I do not talk too much you just don't like it when I call you an idiot…idiot."

"I'm not an idiot." They were at each other's throats. Michael looked at Kanashimi and he shook his head. He walked away and Michael followed as the other two bickered.

"Are they always like that?" He asked as they reached the lake.

"Not always but, most of the time." He sat down. Michael sat beside him. "Are you looking forward to this? Have you had any training?"

Michael nodded. "My father trained me. My eyes started changing when I was nine." Kanashimi nodded.

"Yeah my eyes did the same."

"I can't use them in my world." Michael frowned. "I have to hide and walk slowly and not use my chakra."

"Wow that would be really hard for me." Michael nodded. "So your parents are going to let you stay here and be an ninja."

"My mother doesn't like it but, father usually gets what he wants." Kanashimi nodded. His parents were pretty much the same.

"My Dad is the head of the Police for the Leaf village and my brother is the captain of the An Bu so I can't get away with anything." He sighed and propped his chin in his hands. "Did you read all the stuff about this world."

"Some of it." Michael nodded. "They stopped the story after your Dad made up with Naruto and came home to the village." He shrugged. "So all the stuff about us and everything isn't in there."

"I wondered about that. The guy that wrote here had an accident and he couldn't write anymore." Michael frowned. "Yeah I know I always wondered if that was my Dad but, I decided I didn't want to know. You don't want to read them anyway. There's way too much sex in them. Our parents and sex not two words I want to even contemplate together." He shook his head.

"I agree." Michael made a face. "So do you think anyone would care if we fought?"

"Like for real?"

"I don't have anyone to spar with other than my Dad I wonder how good I am and I figured you would be a good one to try on." Kanashimi smiled.

"That sounds like fun." They stood and both jumped onto the water. They slid out to the middle and faced each other. "Okay do you want to set up rules?"

"Yeah we don't use anything that would make our mother's upset later." Kanashimi snickered.

"Good idea." They moved towards each other and began to attack. Michael knew how to use a kunai but, in his world you didn't carry things like that so when he slid close enough he took one and two shuriken. They slid back apart and Kanashimi smiled.

"Sneaky." He grinned and leapt into the air.

Minato and Orchid were still arguing but, Minato froze as he heard a sound. "Hey where did they go?"

Orchid pointed to the lake. "Wow." Was all she could say. They headed down to the water and sat down. "This is cool." Orchid smiled.

"I want whoever wins." He said proudly.

Kanashimi's hand was surrounded with a blue scatter of lighting that he had learned from his father. The chidori had become a sharingan user's trademark. The jutsu created by Kakashi. Orchid had seen it before on Sasuke and Kakashi but, she didn't know Kanashimi could do it. Michael lowered his body and pulled his hands up in a strange sign. Silver started to swirl around him and then moved to his left hand where it lengthened into a sword and solidified. "What is that?"

"We named it the sword of light." The voice behind them was deep and carried a weight they weren't used to. They looked up and saw that this was definitely an Uchiha. This must be Madara. Both children were quiet after that.

Sasuke landed beside him. "Well this is a little preemptive but, predictable."

"Yes I think so. Lets see what happens." They both watched each, very proud of his son.

The two boys met in the middle the light wrapping around them. Then they pulled apart looking at each other and, were breathing hard after only a few minutes. But they were smiling.

"Well this jutsu is new and I can't hold it for long." Michael sighed as the silver slid around then back into him.

Kanashimi nodded. "Me either." He smiled and the sound of the birds died. "That was awesome though." They turned and started walking back.

Madara stood beside his kinsman and watched the two boys walking side by side so powerful and so young. "You have to keep him safe for me."

"Of course."

"I don't have the right to ask it. I never did anything to deserve your loyalty." He sighed.

"You saved my children." He sighed. "We all make mistakes." He looked at him and his eyes were softer than he had ever seen them. They looked more like his brother's eyes. "Our children are not going to know the pain we knew we'll make sure of it."

"Who will be his sensei?" Sasuke smiled.

"Actually I think I would like to share the responsibility with several other's" He smiled a little. "I am still not as nice a man as I would like to be but, Naruto will make up for that. Michael is excellent from what I see here. As is his control, I am sure you started training him as soon as he could walk, I did with mine." He nodded.

"We will have him take the exam just a formality. And he might be able to enter the chunin next time around." Madara nodded. "I want you to know we will do all we can to make sure he stays safe. But, you must understand he will have to watch his back as I did; as Naruto did, all his time here. You are his father, everyone will know that. He will be in danger every moment. He is a target because of the evil you committed, just as my children are."

"I know." Madara said stiffly. "You must understand that this was not my intention. My wife is wholly apposed to this. But, he needs this, he is suffocating in the other world. Always holding back. Always having to hide who he really is. I couldn't bare it if I ever saw that look in his eye." He looked at Sasuke. "The look I see in the mirror every day."

"I understand completely and I have the same fear. Every time I think of Kabuto still out there somewhere. My children out of the village terrifies me." He sighed and touched his shoulder. "We are very careful. We will be no less careful of your son." Madara nodded and smiled as his son stepped onto the bank a grin on his face. Orchid and Minato ran to them. "Come and meet my other children. You saved them they should get the chance to thank you."

Madara closed his eyes at the arms that wrapped around him. "Second thoughts."

"No just a lot of ghosts I suppose." She leaned against his shoulder and sighed.

"This place is not happy for you."

"It's more of a different life." He turned and sat down on the window sill pulling her close. "I can easily break my life into three separate parts." His hands slowly moved down her arms. "There was my beginning the strongest of my clan. My brother and I gaining our power and becoming a fellow founder of the village. That life ended when I fought with Senju and lost. Then another life where I hid in the shadows waiting for my revenge. A dark and lonely life. He found her fingers and brought them to his lips. "In these first two parts I lived every day and thought I knew what living was." He kissed her lips. "I was so wrong." He kissed her palm then her wrist. "I was born the day I met you. That was the day I knew what it wasn't good enough to just live but, be alive." He stood and his lips found hers his hands sliding her as close as he could get her. "Then you gave me a son." He kissed her forehead and buried his nose in her hair. "I am terrified for him." He whispered. She could feel the slight tremble in his fingers.

She pulled away and looked at him slowly, she saw something that made her sigh. Tears were at the edges of his eyes. She reached up and touched his face. "My love." She leaned up on her toes and kissed his eyes. "As much as I hate to admit it. I think you were right to bring him here. He has been more relaxed and happy since he got here than I have seen him in many years."

He smiled and pulled her face up. His eyes danced with amusement. "Well I'm always right but, that isn't the point." The tears were already gone. He had never cried not once in all the years they'd been together. She had only seen that shine on his eyes once before when he looked into the eyes of his son for the first time.

She raised a brow. "Give you an inch."

"And, I will take everything." He pulled her up into his arms. "Starting now." He smothered her giggles and walked to the bed in his borrowed apartment.

They stayed for a small time but, Madara was afraid of the trouble his presence would cause Naruto when the council came to the village the next week. He wanted to be gone by then. He looked at his son and nodded. "Make sure you listen to Sasuke and your Hokage."

"I will." He nodded. Madara touched his shoulder.

"I am proud of you." He closed his eyes. He felt the arms and sighed holding his son to him.

"I love you too Dad." He said really low. Madara smiled and fought the damnable emotions that threatened to over flow.

Judy looked up at him, already taller than her. "We will come and visit you."

"Geez Mom you're crying." He sighed and wiped at her face. "Don't cry. You know considering Dad's power you could come anytime you wanted." She nodded.

"I know that." She turned and hugged her friends. Carrie cried too. Andrea was a little better she smiled and got a little teary but, she had been through a great deal in her life and was made of stronger stuff than most. Her husband and she stood silently and waited. Then they were gone.

Sasuke looked at Michael and smiled slightly. "Let's get you settled in. You can have my brother's old room."

Naruto looked at him and smiled. "Well I guess we need to find out what type you are. Michael just watched him.

"I'm a wind type you see and your father of course is fire. But we don't know what your mother is."

He handed him a piece of paper. Michael nodded and concentrated his chakra. The fire slid up but then a silver light lit the paper and it flashed. Naruto frowned. Kakashi walked forward and shook his head.

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" He sighed. Kakashi took the paper.

"Well it started out like all the Uchiha as fire but, that silver was life chakra. I actually think that he is a born sage."

Naruto nodded. "I have heard of them but, usually they are in the animal world. Pa was a natural sage."

"So does that mean I'm like you." He asked smiling. Naruto grinned.

"Well let's just find out." He looked at Kakashi and they shared a look. "First we need to see what animal you are aligned with." He pulled up his hands. "This jutsu sees what your spirit calls to. He moved his hands and a poof a small totem the animal was just a carving. Michael leaned down and looked it.

"It's a cat." He frowned.

"Really that is very rare indeed." Kakashi smiled. "Only

Andrea as far as I know has ever had a contract with the cats in this village. They are independent creatures not used to orders. He raised a brow.

"We will have Andrea work up a contract for you." He nodded. They went to Andrea and she smiled.

"That's wonderful." She took the huge scroll and slid it open. "All the sages of the cat village on Mt. Byakko are in this scroll."

She took his hand and bit his finger. He frowned and watched her. She took the blood and smeared it on each of his fingers. "Now write your name and make your mark." He did what she said still a little stunned with her biting him.

"Alright now all you have to do is build up enough chakra to summon. Hopefully you'll do better than Naruto did." She looked at Naruto and he rolled his eyes.

"I summoned Chief toad my first real summoning."

"You summoned a tadpole the first time you tried." She laughed. Sasuke was in the other room and burst into laughter.

"Thanks now I'll never live that down." She laughed harder. Michael just watched them.

He moved outside. She took the scroll and slid it open. She pulled her hands up and made the signs. Then she slammed the hand into the ground. A poof and a massive Snow leopard stood by her side. "This is Andrea." He looked at her and gasped. He had never seen anything so big.

"Hello young Uchiha."

"How do you know who I am." The cat chuckled and crouched.

"I only need to look at your black hair and the way you move to know what you are and you smell like fire. That is a sure sign."

"You must be Madara's son." He nodded. "Well that is interesting." She laid down. "What type are you I smell fire but, I smell the other chakra that surrounds you." He nodded. "I can just imagine how that happened." She raised a brow. "Well let's get you a companion. I will come if you are in trouble but, you must try to summon someone that can grow with you." She pulled up her hands and a scroll appeared. "Here this will allow you to summon one of the younger cats in my village." He looked at it apprehensively. "Go ahead. Don't worry you can easily summon one. You have more than enough power and you can focus your chakra right." He nodded. "There you are now do your best."

He opened the scroll and took his still bleeding finger and slid it across. He did the signs as she did them and then touched the scroll. He looked and a poof lit on the ground at his feet. "What's going on?" The cat sat up and frowned. "Who are you?" He was black. He stood about knee high. "Princess Andrea, what's going on?"

"Young Talaku you will be the familiar for Michael." Talaku looked at Michael and sniffed at him.

"He smells funny."

"Thanks."

"You smell the chakra of the earth on him." She smiled. "He is very powerful."

"You're just saying that to make me want to do this." She rolled her eyes.

"You're going to do it because I told you too you little runt." She snarled at him. He cringed. "Now get to know Michael I will summon you back when it is time to come home." She ruffled Michael's hair and disappeared.

Andrea the human smiled. "Well now let's go back to the house. "You know Michael I'm even the host to a cat."

"The two tailed Phantom cat I know." She nodded. "What is it like being a Jinchiriki?"

"It's alright." She smiled. "I don't really mind."

Talaku followed a little reluctantly. His black fir shining in the afternoon sun. Andrea stopped at the Uchiha gate. "Now my dear go and take Talaku and show him the village."

"Okay." He sighed and turned away. "Come on." The cat followed. "I'm sorry you got stuck with me."

Talaku sighed. "I'm not really mad about that I guess. I just wish I didn't get jerked away like that." He sighed. "I was just about to catch a snake and he's been tormenting me; oh never mind." Michael just watched the cat and frowned.

"A snake. What was he doing?"

"Oh it's this snake he comes and torments me. It's nothing." He snarled. "He hurt my friend and he died. Now he comes and taunts me about it."

"Wow that's horrible I'm sorry." His face was suddenly infinitely sad. Then he shook it off and shrugged.

"Oh who cares. So I get to be your summoning creature. Well you know cats aren't really the come when you call them kind of animal you know." He sighed.

"I'm used to that. I'm not exactly from a come when you call us kind of family." The cat actually laughed.

"No I guess not you are an Uchiha after all. Madara's son. That must be strange." Michael shrugged. "My father killed our elder and was banished from the village. I'm not all that popular either." Michael looked at the cat and they smiled a little. "Well let's go and see the village. They moved and he showed him the Hokage's office and the lake. Then they were on a hill in the park. "Well I guess some things are the same in this world and mine." He laid back in the grass.

"Is it strange knowing you come from two different worlds?"

"Sometimes." He sighed. "Not so much here."

"Well I'm being summoned. It was nice to meet you Michael." The cat was suddenly gone. Michael sighed and closed his eyes.

"That figures."

"What does?" He looked up at Minato and Orchid. They sat beside him.

"Oh nothing what are you guys doing?"

"We have to go on a mission tomorrow and Konohamaru sensei wanted to know if you would like to go. He's not the one taking us this time but, he still wanted you to go." Minato smiled.

Orchid just looked at him smiled shyly then looked away. He frowned. What in the world was her problem?

"It's Neji taking us. I just found out." Kanashimi sat on the other side of him. "My Dad said that it was better that way. Konohamaru was still young. He would rather an older more experienced Sensei be in charge of our first mission." He looked at Michael and punched his shoulder lightly. "You coming or not?"

"Yeah I think I'd like that." They stood.

Minato grinned. "Great let's go eat I'm starving."

"You're always starving you would stay in front of a plate if you had your way." He frowned his wild hair framing his face.

"You're such a grouch." He sighed. "It's just because you're around Michael."

She reddened and then she hit him.

Sasuke looked at the scene and frowned. "Has she been spending much time with Sakura?"

Naruto cringed. "I think it comes naturally." He said softly. "Have you ever seen Carrie angry?"

"I guess he must be going, it looks like they are all very chummy." He turned and looked at his wife as she walked up a little stiffly. He had intended on telling her about Olivia but, had not had the chance.

"So the children are getting along." She said stoically. Naruto felt the sudden chill in the air. He shifted uncomfortably.

"I think I have something to do…somewhere else." He was gone.

Sasuke reached out and took her hand. It was limp in his. "You still think I'm dreaming of other women don't you?"

"I don't think. I know." She didn't even look at him. "I just…" He closed his eyes and took her shoulders.

"Look at me." His words were soft but, didn't give her the option to deny him. Andrea met his dark gaze and saw pain. She frowned. "It hurts me that you would think that about me."

"I…" He shook his head. She silenced.

"My brother has a daughter."

"What?"

"It was his dreams you were hearing, his sorrow not mine. I am happy with you, even if you don't trust me." She shook her head. He smiled. "Don't deny it. But, if you had spoken in your sleep of another man I'm sure I wouldn't have just gotten up early and washed dishes." He raised a brow.

"I guess not." Then she fell into his arms. "Thank God. I would have hated to have to kill you in your sleep."

He rolled his eyes. They made plans to go the next day.
