notice- Naruto doesn't belong to me and English is my second language. I'm not sure if this story will be good but I want to try my best. Please read and review.


Prologue

"Hokage-sama, we have found Hikaru-sama, sir, and we had sent him to the hospital," the fox-masked anbu spoke quietly, kneeling at the tall figure in the flamed robe and winged hat in front of him, on the top of the fourth Hokage monument. The anbu signed deeply, it was to be known that whenever their hokage chose to retire himself here, something must be disturbing his peaceful nature, surely something seriously was going on, and from the look of it, it wasn't just the fact that his son had lost and just appeared at the gate after 3 days of his disappearance.

"So troublesome," the anbu groaned before standing up and scratched his head in an annoying nature. "What happen this time, dear hokage?"

"Nothing that concerns you, my dear friend," the hokage answered flatly, but still the amused tone was used despite his seriousness. The anbu glared at the man for a while, then decided that he should break the silence, "you know, your life was so troublesome."

"Well, I can't help, can I," he then laughed at his friend's word, his tanned hand hold on to his friend shoulder before patting it softy. "Don't worry too much, Shikamaru, and thanks for your concern, I really appreciate it."

Shikamaru signed again, and suddenly he realized something that he took a notice of and just remembered to ask, "you know what, I think something is up with your son, he appeared to look rather a lot like, you know, him. I wonder what he has gotten himself into. You should see for yourself."

The anbu's words made the hokage stiffen, but not more than a minute.

"Well, I think I should get going then, who know, Ai-chan may want to kick my ass right now after she knows I don't come to see her little Hikaru-chan immediately." The hokage spoke softy, there was clearly a hint of affection hidden in his voice. Then he disappeared in the swirl of leafs.

"Damn you, something must really be going on here," the man cursed and looked up at the sky. He might have to figure it out soon, but for now he needed some times to sleep.
