Naruto and Sakura are heading back to the village after 5 years of training. Jumping from branch to branch in the trees little kasumi tries to keep up by running. Naruto laughed.
"Can you keep up?" Kasumi started to run faster.
"I'll race you to the village daddy!" Naruto smiled as he jumped to the ground.
"Your on!" Kasumi and Naruto started charging for the village. Sakura jumped on to the ground and put her hands on her hips.
"Naruto! Go easy on her!" Sakura yelled. Naruto looked behind as he ran.
"What?! Are you kidding?!" Naruto yelled back. Sakura laughed.
"You better catch up or else she's going to beat you." Naruto turned back. Kasumi had already reached the village.
"I told you she would." Sakura said as she stood next to him. Naruto crossed his hands.
"She's grown so much." Sakura and Naruto looked at Kasumi. Her hands waving back and forth as she yelled, "I did it, I did it!" Sakura took Naruto's hand and started walking with him towards Kasumi. When they reached her Naruto put his hand on Kasumi's head.
"Your getting fast." Naruto put one knee on the ground as Kasumi ran into his arms.
"I love you daddy." Naruto squished her tiny head into his chest.
"I love you too." Naruto said in a low tone.
"Hey, daddy..." Kasumi looke dup at Naruto's face.
"Yes?" Naruto replied. Kasumi jumped up running away.
"I'm going to tell everyone you lost i a race to me!" Naruto jumped up.
"Oh no you're not!" Hes gave a big grin as he ran toward Kasumi and picked her up, tickling her until she couldn't laugh anymore. Naruto put her down. "Hey Sakura-chan? When are we gonna tell everyone?
Sakura looked angry. She gave Naruto a look as she held a fist up. Both Naruto and Kasumi's face were dripping sweat. Sakura ran towards Naruto smacking him into the wall.
"I told you not to call me Sakura-chan anymore!"
"S-sorry..." Naruto said clumsily. While Sakura continued her lecture Kasumi had disappeared. "Sakura- Chan where's Kasumi?!"
"What did I say about calling me that?! Wait what did you say?!" Naruto stood up and ran where Kasumi was standing before.
"Kasumi!She's gone!" They panicked.
"Naruto you look around in the woods. I'll search the village.
"Right!" They both ran as fast as they could. Sakura asked anybody who walked by if they had seen Kasumi, but nobody even knew who Kasumi was.
Naruto searched and searched, but found nothing. They met back up at Naruto's house. Inside they sat at the table coming up with a plan.
"I have no clue what to do... I guess we should just keep searching no matter how long it takes."
Sakura nodded her head. They turned in shock as they heard a knock on the door. Thinking it was Kasumie both headed full speed to the door only to find Iruka.
"Iruka sensei?" Naruto asked.
"Wow you've grown so much since the last time I saw you." Naruto blushed.
"Heh heh, thanks."
Iruka gave Naruto an article from the news paper. "So I see there is a little rumor that you and Sakura got married huh?" Iruka looked at Sakura.
Naruto and Sakura looked at one another blushing.
"So the rumor is true then." Iruka smiled. "So who was that girl you were asking about today Sakura? You looked worried, is everything alright? Sakura stuttered.
"Well... Our daughter Kasumi..." Iruka's face lit up.
"So not only did you guys get married but you had a kid!" Naruto blushed, putting one of his hands over Iruka's mouth.
"Shhh don't say it so loud!" A girl had overheard the conversation and squealed as she told one person after another. Naruto sighed.
"Well there goes that secret..." Sakura put her hand on Naruto's shoulder.
"We would have had to tell everyone at some point." She laughed a bit.
"Yeah, I know. I just didn't expect everyone to find out like this." Naruto rubbed the back of his hand as he laughed. Iruka gave a serious face.
"Before... You never finished Sakura..." Naruto looked down.
"Kasumi... dissapeared. Iruka looked at Naruto.
"What?!"
"One minute she was there and then the next she was gone." Naruto punched the wall. "If only I had kept an eye on her..."Sakura grabbed naruto other hand.
"No it's my fault... If I hadn't distracted both myself and you she would still be here with us." Iruka looked at them.
"I would help, but I was assigned a very important mission that can't afford to be delayed." Naruto followed Sakura into the house.
"Nah it's fine. It's not like it's your fault so there's really no reason for you to say sorry."
"I hope you find her." Iruka said. Naruto gave him a thumbs up.
"Don't worry I will- tebayo!" Iruka smiled and took off as Naruto shut the door behind him. Silence filled the house.
"What do we do now Naruto?" Naruto grabbed his backpack and gave another to Sakura.
"We start looking."
