Authors note: This is the sequel to "Spawn of a Uchiha" ( DUN DUN DUN! ) lol. So if you havent read that story, you wont get this one. This takes place 1 ½ years later, and Sasuke has killed Orochimaru (just like he said he was going to do in the first story) so Sasuke is just now coming back to the village. This IS in Sasukes POV and this IS flashback, that's why its in italics. This story WILL NOT be as long as the first one, and after this one, there will be no more ( most likely) lol. So review, and tell me what you think. But no flames pleasee._____________________________________________________________

I stood in front of the hidden leaf gate. The big green gate doors stood wide open, and looked like they had hardly any security. It looked so easy to evade, to break into. I hoped they had gotten better security throughout all these years, not that it would really matter since Orochimaru was dead.

I took a deep breath before I stepped one foot into the village. I would have to start my life over, if they even allowed me back to stay. Although I was certain they would, me being a Uchiha and everything. But you could never be TOO certain. It would be a pain dealing with the police force and the hokage, but I decided this was what needed to be done. Better now than never.

I slowly strolled into the village, not being sneaky like I had been the last time I was here. It had been nearly two years since I had been here, and the village didn't look any different. I had to force myself to continue to walk, not wanting to back out. No. I couldn't back out. I had a promise to fulfill.

I walked through the tiny roads that led throughout the village. There were many people out, but they surprisingly paid no attention to me. Perhaps I was just a ninja to them, I was nothing special. But if they took a longer glance, they would all probably flip out and go get the police.

Of course this isn't what I wanted, at least not until I reached my destination. After that, I didn't care what they did with me. I would have to deal with the police sooner or later, but I would prefer later. To avoid this, I decided that maybe it would be my best move to travel a little more…secret.

I jumped on the nearest rooftop and sprinted along the buildings. It wouldn't take me long to get to her, I knew exactly where I was going.

I sprinted quietly and secretly, nobody noticing me. I was just a regular ninja to them, but they couldn't see who I really was. Finally, I reached her house.

I jumped down from the rooftop to her house, and landed swiftly on the balls of my feet. I stood straight and looked at the tiny, tan colored house before I walked up the concrete stairs. The stairs led to the wooden door, where just behind it, I could hear her talking.

It took me a moment before I brought my hand back into a fist and knocked on the door. I waited, no reply. I knocked again, waiting another fifteen seconds. I was very impatient.

Before I had to knock a third time, the door creaked open.

Sakura, holding Akiyo, opened the door wide open. Her emerald green eyes stared into mine as her mouth dropped open. I glanced down at Akiyo, who was busy gnawing on one of his fingers. His own drool rolled down his hands, and his sky blue onesie that he was wearing. His light black hair was not long and his big black eyes met mine. He looked for a second, then looked back at his hands, continuing to gnaw on them. I looked back up to Sakura, whos pink hair was a little longer than shoulder length now and she was wearing a green tank top with black shorts. She was barefoot and she looked tired. But her eyes were wide with surprise.

"Sakura." I said softly.

She swallowed. "Sasuke." she answered back.

"I came back for you." I said. Sakuras eyes began to tear up, but she forced them back. She took a deep breath and scooted to the side.

"Please come in." she said practically forcing the words out. I nodded and walked past her, into her tiny house.

I smirked as I heard her close the door behind me. "momma." a tiny voice said from behind me. I turned around to see Akiyos face scrunched up and his hands opening and closing.

"Hold on sweetie." Sakura said as if I weren't even there. She sat Akiyo in the floor, surrounded by blocks. Sakura walked past me to her refrigerator, retrieved a bottle, and gave it to Akiyo on the floor. Akiyo brought it to his mouth and began sucking it down. It surprised me how big he had gotten, but then again, it had been almost two years since I seen him. Sakura looked back at me calmly. She was now seventeen, but she still looked the same for the most part besides her hair.

"Akiyo has gotten big." I pointed out looking down at him. She glanced down at him as well and nodded.

"He is almost two years old." she said walking to me. I looked at her big green eyes that were just a few inches from mine. She sighed. "you came back." she whispered.

"I told you I would." I said. I walked past her and sat down on her bed. She sat down next to me, calmly. I sighed as I looked at Akiyo who was still drinking his bottle.

"I missed you."

"I missed you too." I said.

"Orochimaru?"

"Gone." I answered, still not looking at her. Sakura sighed next to me.

"So we're safe." Sakura said relieved.

"Yes."

"And that means…your coming home…" Sakura said, a tint of hopefulness in her tone.

It took me a minute before I answered. I had promised her a long time ago that I would come back when Orochimaru, she had been waiting for me this whole time. It had taken me so long because I had to tie up loose ends, which I did. Itachi was dead, everything was fine and taken care of.

I smiled and turned my head from Akiyo to look at her. Her eyes were filled with curiosity and fear, fear that I would leave again. I touched her cheek softly and leaned in to her.

"Yes." I said feeling her soft breathing on my lips. "yes, I am home."
