"Master Tsunade, they have arrive" a woman with short black hair said, as a woman with blonde hair nodded. Acknowledging the two people arriving her vicinity.

"Welcome back Uchiha Sasuke, hm… and who could be this pretty young lady you are with?" Tsunade ask, looking at a young lady with long red hair, black eyes wearing a simple dress. "Anyways, we have receive your message last week and for the punishment on leaving Konoha without any permission, you are to be ban in leaving the gates of Konoha and you are not allowed to take any mission higher than B… The Uchiha compound is ready to use. And one of my apprentice will be on guard in any of your action." She added.

"And may I know who will that be?" Sasuke asks, looking at Tsuande curiosly. But before Tsunade can answer, a certain loud mouth entered the office.

"SASUKE-TEME WELCOME BACK!!" Naruto yelled, as he stop to notice the girl Sasuke's with. "You must be Sasuke's girlfriend" he added, flashing his famous grin.

"Stop scaring her dobe" Sasuke said, looking at his best friend. "Anyways, Kairi this Naruto--

"NARUTO UZUMAKI, THE NEXT HOKAGE" Naruto shouted, as he extended his hands to Kairi. "Whatever dobe" Sasuke said, looking at his friend. "What did you said teme?" Everything stopped when a smoke filled the room and revealed a pink haired goddess. "Sakura-chan is back!" Naruto said, waiting for the smoke to totally disappear. 'Sakura?' Sasuke thought, as he watches the young lady get up. She is wearing an ANBU uniform although a mask cover the face you can tell that she is beautiful, from her skin and the way her hair is done. You really can tell that she is an admired kunuichi.

"Master Tsunade, this is the report from our mission" Sakura said, as she handed a small book to the Hokage. "Good, You and your team can rest now and Sakura tomorrow, report here. I have a mission for you" Tsunade said eyeing Sasuke. Sakura nodded and walked away from the desk until she noticed Sasuke.

"Sasuke? Your back!" Sakura said, as she hug(friendly hug not obsess hug) Sasuke. "Hm… and who might you be?" Sakura ask, as flash her sweet smile that will make 10000 man collapse. "I'm Kairi, Sakura-san… nice meeting you… Sasuke-san had told me a lot about you" the young lady replied softly. 'san?' Sakura thought. "Call me Sakura, I really don't like formalities, ok?" Sakura ask, as Kairi nodded uncertainly. "Anyways, I'll see you around… I have to go… I kinda need a rest from our mission… So bye" Sakura said, as she made some hand seal and cherry blossom that came out from nowhere surround her and in a flash she disappeared. "It's her new jutsu… you will see of that a lot," Tsunade said, while reading the report Sakura handed her earlier. "Hn" Sasuke said, as he grab his girlfriend waist and left the office.

"So this is your house Sasuke-san?" Kairi asked, as Sasuke nodded. After they had their dinner, Sasuke showed Kairi her room and then went to his room afterwards.

'She had change a lot, she's not the Sakura I knew… I wonder if it's because of me' Sasuke thought, looking at the Team Seven's picture.
