Introduction
I looked down at the bundle held securely in my grasp. Navy blue blankets surrounded his form. He wasn't even as long as my forearm, and he was mine. His face was flushed, and his cheeks were full. His Raven hair was tousled, even though he only had a small patch. His skin was smooth, pale, and completely flawless. His breathing was steady and slow. He was sleeping. He was perfect, completely and utterly perfect. He was mine, and I loved him. I might not ever say it, but I loved him. I smiled a small almost invisible smile. He made little sounds in his sleep, no words. He couldn't manage words, yet. "Isn't he perfect." She spoke. I wasn't a question. She knew my answer. I took my eyes off him and onto her. She was resting in the crisp clean bed. Her medium length cherry blossom hair was tied back into a pony tail. Her skin was shining from the sweat. She smiled at me, with one of those smiles that were only for me. Her emotional green eyes were looking into me. She was perfect. They were everything I wasn't; maybe that's why I love them. I would never say it, but I did. I loved Sakura, and I loved our son. "Hn" that was my usual response. She gestured to the child I held. I looked back down at him. He was innocent, and nothing at all like his father. I handed Sakura our son. She pulled down one side of her hospital gown and fed him. I sat in the chair beside her bed, and watched them. I watched her gently sway him. I watched her make sure his head was safely being held. I watched everything, not just because it was his first seconds of life, or because of how beautiful and perfect they were. I watched them because they were my family. They were the last goal I had being fulfilled. They were my clan, and I loved them "My clan."
My eyes opened, the dream came again. It had happened off and on for about a month now, but this time it was different, longer, and clearer. Previous ones just showed the child's face. With those I had no clue who he was, or why he was there. But now, it was something entirely different. It made me remember what it was like to have a family, but it was still different. I realized there was some subconscious part of my brain wanting me to complete that goal, and with Sakura. Once the realization feeling was over, the confusion set in. Why her? Why now? Then, once that passed the un satisfy able urge shot through me. I needed to compete this goal, and I needed Sakura to do it. The strange part was, I actually wanted to feel, I wanted to feel the way I had in the dream. I suppose that's why I choose to find her, I didn't have a plan, but it had to happen. I had made up my mind. Soon I would leave Madara behind, and begin my quest for restoring my clan…with Sakura.
