Chapter one: New friend

"Jin you'll be okay by yourself for a couple days?" a man with gray hair, which seemed to defy gravity, said. The man was about 5'11 and looked no more than twenty or so, but you wouldn't be able to tell because of his gray hair. Then man had a head band over his left eye and wore a mask that covered the bottom half of his face (more of just his mouth but whatever).

"Of course daddy I'll have uncle Iruka with me so I'm not entirely by myself "a six year old girl said smiling. The little girl had fire red hair and ice blue eyes. She looked so small for her size; it seemed that even if you poked her she would break. The girl's father smiled softly, even though you couldn't see it, at his daughter.

He bent down and put his hand on his daughter Jin's head. "You're going to behave for your uncle Iruka right?" he asked running his hand over his daughters' hair that was in crooked pig tails. He could tell his daughter tried to do it herself. He chuckled quietly and pulled Jin's hair bands out so he could fix them.

Jin giggled and playfully pushed her dads hand away when he was done fixing her hair. "Daddy go on your mission "she said as she continued to giggle. "Yeah Kakashi you were already late getting to the gate" a deep male voice said behind the father and daughter.

Kakashi turned around to glare at the man. He had bluish-grayish hair and green eyes. "I tried to make him not late uncle Aiko but he was too lazy to get up" the innocent little girl said. Kakashi looked at his daughter and shook his head. He never did like her talking to this man for reasons even he didn't know.

"Hey now "Kakashi said smiling slightly. The man named Aiko smirked and turned to look at the little girl. "You're such a good girl Jin" he said walking up to her ready to pat her head." Jin I have been looking for you it's time for school" a man with black hair and a scar going across his nose said running up to the three people before Kakashi had time to take Aiko's hand away from Jin.

Jin looked at the man and gave him a big grin. "Sorry uncle Iruka I wanted to say bye to daddy" she said beaming at her "uncle". Iruka smiled and looked Kakashi, who was glaring daggers at Aiko. "Well I'm going to take Jin to school, we'll see you in a few days" he said quickly taking Kakashi's attention away from the green eyed man.

Kakashi nodded and patted his daughters head one more time. Jin smiled and looked up at her dad. "You be good" he whispered and began walking away with Aiko. Jin waved after him and grabbed her uncle's hand.

"Okay uncle Iruka lets go" she said quietly once her dad and his partner were out of sight. Iruka looked down at the little girl and noticed she had tears in her eyes. "You know Jin it is okay to cry" he said bending down to stare at the little girl. She pretended to be brave every time her dad left on a mission.

Jin glared at her uncle and quickly wiped the tears from her eyes. "I'm not crying!" she exclaimed stomping her foot on the ground. Iruka couldn't help but laugh slightly, for being a six year old she had one mean glare. "Okay okay let's go" he said.

Jin nodded enthusiastically and quickly wiped the rest of her tears away. Iruka smiled to himself and began walking away. That is until Jin was knocked over by a moving object err person actually. "oh no not again, Millie get back here!" two six year old voices shouted.

Iruka turned around to see what all the noise was about. He then saw Jin laying on the ground face first. He also saw a little girl, who looked no more than three or four, run away from the scene. "Owww my face" Jin whined when she lifted herself up.

"I'm so sorry my sister ran into you" a girl, who looked the same age as Jin, said running up to Jin. "Oh no it's okay I fall down all the time" Jin said getting up and dusting herself off. Jin looked at the girl and noticed that the girl wasn't alone; she had a boy, who looked a lot like her (literally), by her side. The girl had brown hair with red and blonde streaks and had straight bangs covering her forehead.

She had light almond skin but what really caught Jin's attention were the girl's eyes. Her eyes were dark brown and had little blue flecks in them. The boy was actually no different, other than him being a boy they looked almost exactly alike. "I'm going on ahead" the boy said chasing after their little sister.

Jin watched the boy run past until she realized she was being talked to. She shook her head and looked back at the girl. "I'm sorry what?" she asked slightly embarrassed. The girl looked at Jin and started to laugh.

"I said you have dirt in your hair" she said calming down. Jin squeaked and threw her hands to her hair. She quickly got the dirt out as best as she could and sighed. "Thank you. I'm Jin Hatake nice to meet you" she said smiling.

The girl smiled back and stretched her hand out to shake Jin's hand. "I'm Hannah Torres the boy you saw was Ethan my twin brother and my little sister Millie was the one who ran into you I have a sister Cece but she is at home already" she said. Jin smiled and shook Hannah's hand, before she noticed a woman behind her. "Um whose that?" she asked pointing to the woman. Hannah looked behind her.

"Oh that's my momma" she said beaming. Jin looked at Hannah's mom and smiled sadly. ' she is so pretty, it must be nice having a momma' she thought. At this point Iruka finally came up and shook hands with Hannah's mom.

"It is good to see you again Linda" he said smiling. Said woman smiled and shook his hand. "Same to you too Iruka...is that little girl talking to my daughter over there your daughter?" she asked staring at Jin. "Oh no she is Kakashi's I'm just looking after her while he is on a mission" Iruka said shaking his head.

Iruka saw that Linda gave him a look telling him she did not believe him. He sighed and shook his head again. "You'll have to ask Kakashi when he gets back" he said in a quiet voice. Linda nodded as if she already planned on doing that.

"Momma I got Millie" Ethan said coming back with the three year old. "Ethan, Millie meet Jin, Jin this is Ethan and Millie" Hannah said seeing her brother and sister. Jin smiled and did a little curtsy. "It is nice to meet you all but I have to go to school with uncle Iruka now" she said smiling.

"Awe but we just met you" Millie whined. Jin smiled and looked at the little girl. "I'm very sorry...uncle Iruka we are going to be late" Jin said looking at her uncle, who was still talking to Linda. Iruka smiled and bowed to the woman in front of him.

"It was nice seeing you again" he said going towards Jin and grabbing her hand. "Uncle Iruka can I play with them later?" Jin asked looking at her uncle. Iruka looked at Jin then looked at Linda who nodded as if saying yes and smiled. "I don't mind" he said. The four children cheered.

"I'll see you guys later meet me at the school" Jin said as she dragged Iruka away. Hannah and her family nodded and waved goodbye before heading off to their home.

The day past by slowly but it didn't bother Jin no she just couldn't wait to see her new friends. "Ah there she is!"Jin heard someone say excitedly when she walked out of the school building. Normally she would have stayed inside and waited for her uncle but he had a meeting to go to and she had to meet her friends. Jin looked over to where she heard the voice and saw Hannah, Ethan, and Millie waving at her.

"Hi everyone!" she shouted running over to them. "What are we going to do?" Ethan asked when Jin reached them. Jin stopped to think for a minute then nodded as if confirming something. "We shall play...tag!" she said throwing her hands in the air excitedly.

The other three children looked at each other then nodded, grinning. "One...two...three not it!" all three of them said raising their hands. Jin looked at her three friends and pouted. "no fair!" she cried even though she was smiling.

The three siblings laughed and began to run away from Jin when she began chasing them. They played tag for hours not caring about anything or anyone around them. Unknown to the children Iruka wasn't too far away watching the children play. 'I'm glad Jin finally found some kids to play' he thought smiling.

Suddenly his smile disappeared when he noticed the sun setting. He sighed and walked out of the school building and walked towards Jin. "Jin come on it is getting late" he said when he got closer. "Bye guys see you tomorrow" Jin said smiling as she waved goodbye to her friends.

"bye" the siblings said waving and began walking home. "Come on Jin lets go home" Iruka said walking away. Jin nodded and ran to catch up with him. "Hey uncle Iruka where is my momma? Why isn't she with daddy? Doesn't she love me?" Jin asked grabbing Iruka's vest. Iruka froze and looked down at the little girl he calls his niece.

"of course your momma loves you Jin she is just...on a very long mission" he lied seeing Jin's hopeful face. It pained him to have to lie to her but that is what the Hokage and Kakashi wanted. Jin looked at Iruka and began to frown. "When will she be back?" she asked.

Iruka looked away at Jin and scratched his cheek. "Well I don't really know to be honest it is a very important mission" he said. Iruka heard sniffling and looked to see Jin crying. 'Crap' he thought quickly picking up the little girl.

"Hey now come on Jin you'll see her again someday" he said trying to cheer her up. It didn't work though Jin continued crying until she couldn't anymore. "You know you're getting pretty heavy to hold" Iruka joked once Jin stopped crying. Jin looked at her uncle and smacked his arm.

"No one told you to pick me up!" she cried trying not to laugh. "My, my is Iruka giving you a hard time again?" a woman with black shoulder-length hair said coming up to the two. Jin looked over and grinned. "Good evening miss Kurenai, no uncle Iruka was trying to cheer me up" she said looking at the red eyed woman.

"Good evening Kurenai how are you today?" Iruka asked the twenty-one year old woman. Kurenai smile at the two and ruffled Jin's hair. "Oh I'm fine I was just on my way to see the Hokage for a mission" she said. Jin looked at Kurenai with wide eyes and scrambled out of Iruka's arms to hug the red eyed woman.

The two adults looked at Jin shocked. "No please don't leave like momma did big sister Kurenai" Jin cried. Kurenai looked at Jin and smile softly. "Okay "big sister Kurenai" will get a mission that is close by" she said patting Jin's head.

Jin looked at Kurenai and smiled. "Yay!"She said letting go of her big sister figure. Jin smiled one more time and began to yawn. "Looks like someone is tired...I'll catch you guys later bye" Kurenai said before walking away.

Jin waved bye and looked at Iruka. "We can go home now" she said lifting her arms up waiting to be picked up. Iruka picked Jin up and began walking towards his house. It didn't really take long for the red headed six year old to fall asleep in his arms. Iruka sighed when he entered the house.

'I had a feeling she was going to ask that question when she saw those children's mom' he thought putting Jin to bed. He sighed again and left the room. 'I wish she would hurry up and get back' he thought lying on the couch. Iruka smiled to himself when he remembered the conversation he had with Kakashi, and the woman.

"Don't worry Kakashi your little girl will be reunited with her mom soon" the woman had said to Kakashi and Iruka a year ago. The two men looked at her confused. The woman sighed and ate her dango. "I am going to go "find" her mother and bring her back you just have to tell me when you go on another mission so that we can come back together...you understand?" she asked while eating her food.

Iruka chuckled at the memory when he saw Kakashi's face. He had never seen him so shocked before. He also couldn't help but remember the little blush that Kakashi was trying to hide. Iruka sighed again and closed his eye letting sleep take over him.
