The sun was setting on the Leaf village. The last sliver of light resting on the Hokage Stone Faces. Where Naruto sat on his own face. For everything that he has done through the years, the elders of the village went along with what his father wanted to do, and on his twentieth birthday named him Hokage. His dream to become Hokage had finally been realized. As well as marrying the woman of his dreams, Sakura Haruno. And together they had five children. One son and four daughters.

Closing his eyes as the wind blew past him, he couldn't help but feel lucky. The villages and lands have had a reign of peace that has lasted nearly fifteen years. He knew it was going to be time soon for something else to come up. But he was certain with the relationship he has worked so hard to build with not only Gaara, but also the current Raikage, Mizukage, and Tsuchikage that any threat to this peace would be squashed before it could take root.

"I thought that I would find you here Naruto."

Turning to smile over his shoulder as his father walked up behind him, Naruto sighed. "Yeah. Just thinking about everything that has happened for the good over the last fifteen years."

Sitting down next to his son Minato nodded as he himself smiled and looked out over the village. Tonight was the last night that just he and his son were goint to be Hokage together. He was going to retire and spend time with his wife and daughter, while tomorrow was the induction of a new Hokage. "So what do you thinka bout the elders choice for another Hokage Naruto?"

With a laugh Naruto turned to his father with a wink. "I love it. Sasuke and I can do anything we put out mind too it. And besides. Who best to protect the village then the current three strongest people there has been in the village?"

Shaking his head with a knowing smile Minato laid back on his back. "Actually Naruto that is what I wanted to talk to you about. With you and Sasuke, everything runs smoothly. The two of you can handle the paperwork and grunt work of the Hokage a lot better then I can in my old age. By the end of tomorrow, I will be forever hanging up my Hokage title."

Turning to his father with blinking eyes Naruto didn't know what to say at first. He knew eventually he would want to retire but didn't think it would be now. Even at his age of fifty five he was still young. "Why would you want to do that? You are still young."

Laughing as he sat up Minato nodded. "I know Naruto." His eyes half closing as he looked down, Minato smiled as he sighed. "But, you and Sasuke work well together and always have. And I would really like more time with your mother, sister and my grandkids as well. I haven't really had time to enjoy them."

Nodding Naruto smiled a bright smile as his eyes turned and found the roof of the home he now shared with Sakura and their kids. "Yeah. It is hard to believe I got five kids already. And you and Mom spoil them rotten daily. Sakura isn't so pleased with that about Naruka and Saki. She never gets two seconds break from them even when I am home."

Opening his eyes to look up at the profile view of his son Minato smiled. He was fifteen when he met Hisana. Right away taking a liking to her. When they married a year later, he just started calling her mom. When they asked him why he said that she was his step mom now. And that he knew for sure that his real mom wouldn't care if he called her mom. Just means he has two now instead of just one. And fell into the role of doting big brother the second his daughter Hina was born. "Yes I know. But I think your mom would argue the point onthat one."

Laughing Naruto stood as he stretched. "I bet she would. Well I promised Sakura I would be home before dark. With Jiraiya and Kushina both Genin now, and having to send them on missions, they are hardly ever home at the same time. Tonight they are going to be and Sakura wants some family time before we all go to bed."

With a nod as he stood with him, Minato laughed. "That actually sounds nice. I am sure that your mom would like the same thing since Hina is home too."

Nodding Naruto turned and gave his father a salute. "Right! Well see ya tomorrow dad." Then he was just gone in a puff of smoke.

Turning and headed toward his own home, Minato couldn't stop his smile. His son had grown into a fine man, wonderful husband and amazing father. He couldn't ask for anymore than that.

Sakura smiled as she craddled her four week old daughter in her arms. Her five year old two inches off her backside. Her eight year old laying on the porch watching her eleven and thirteen year old kids spar in the back yard. Lifting the tray of tea, she headed for the door with a smile. Growing up she never thought she would end up with Naruto. She honestly thought that she was going to end up married to Sasuke at first. Then when he made his intentions for Hinata perfectly clear for all, it was Lee that started to make her feel better. But in the end it was Naruto that won her heart. And now she wouldn't change the way her life planned out for anything.

She was a happy wife and mother, accomplished medical ninja, and head of the hospital. Turning with a smile she found herself looking into Naruto's blue eyes. "Hey. You made it."

Taking the tray of tea and setting it down on the porch next to Tsubaki, Naruto smiled. "I promised you didn't I?"

Nodding with a smile as he turned his attention to Saki and took her from her arms. She then turned and hefted Naruka into her arms. Standing back as she watched father and daughter with a smile. He has been hands on with all the kids since Jiraiya was born.

Then she let her eyes stray to Jiraiya. He was Naruto made over. He liked to goof off sometimes, but for the most part was more mature than he father was at his age. But still had those big blue eyes and that blond hair. She was elated though that he didn't pick up any of the perverted habits of his namesake. She would have had to straighten him out real fast if that was the case. Her son was not going to be a peeping tom.

Then there was Kushina. Their second born. The same slate blue gray eyes and bright red hair as Naruto's birth mother Kushina. It seemed only fitting that be her name. And according to Minato, she not only looked like her, but had her same attitude and abilities as well. Even her special chakra that allowed her to form a barrier with her chakra chains.

Looking down at Tsubaki as she lay on the porch watching her brother and sister. She had long hair like her brother and sister that was pink just like her mother. But she had Naruto's big blue eyes. And was coming up on her first graduation exam, but to the dismay of herself and Naruto she didn't seemed worried about practicing at all anymore. Even though she had more than a natural talent for being a ninja.

She then watched as Naruto sat down with Saki in his arms and Naruka rushed to sit next to him. Naruka was her spitting image like Jiraiya was Naruto's. Even keeping with the short hair. Her eyes half closed to look at their baby in her father's arms. Saki had her father's blond hair, but her own green eyes.

"Sakura you gonna sit down here or what?"

Shaking her head Sakura turned and looked down at Naruto and smiled. "Yeah." After sitting down for a few minutes, it wasn't long before Kushina and Jiraiya were there sitting on the ground in front of them. She listened to them all talking back and forth with one another. This was her family time. Herself, her husband and their children sitting around and talking about anything and everything. She felt like time was flying by even though she just gave birth to a daughter less than a month ago. But it seemed like only yesterday that she brought Jiraiya home. 'But for now this will be the only thing I worry about.'

"Are you coming to bed?"

Looking up as his wife walked in the room Sasuke smiled as he held his hand out for her. Pulling her down to sit next to him on the couch as he kissed the side of her head when she got there. "Yeah I will be in there soon. Just going over the paperwork that makes it official."

Smiling, Hinata sank into the couch with him as she sighed. "Are you nervous?"

Shaking his head Sasuke started reading over everything once more. "I just want to make sure I get it right without sounding stupid."

Hinata smiled as she looked up at him with love shinning in her eyes. He was not the husband she thought she was going to have, but she was so thankful that things didn't turn out the way she thought. She loved Sasuke more than life and totgether they had a perfect family.

Looking to the side as he gvave her a nod she sighed as she looked at the family photo that was taken just after Atasuke graduated from the academy a few mohts ago. They had four children, three boys and one girl. Daisuke was their eldest, then Atasuke and finaly a set of twins named Hiro and Hana.

Daisuke had her hair color and a normal Byakugan. When he used the Byakugan though, it idd the typical change, but also showed a small round black pupil in the middle of it. And much to their amazement, and shock, he could also use the Sharingan as well just as well as his father. And was even able to take it past that and develop his own jutsu where he fused the two together perfectly.

Then there was Atasuke. He also had her hair, but his eyes were t ypically onyx colored like Sasuke's. When he used his Byakugan though, they were the colors of the Sharingan. He hasn't unlokced his shringan yet, and th ey were wondering if he was ever going to do it yet. But even if he didn't, that didn't matter to them.

Last but not least were their sweet little twins. Hiro and Hana, her only daughter. They had the same eyes, and the same Byakugan as Daisuke so the figured that Daisuke would be the one to teach them. And both of them had Sasuke's jet black hair as well.

Leaning over and kissing her husband on the cheek Hinata smiled. "You will do fine. You already know the accptance speech that you have to give. So just stop worrying about it. Daisuke and Atasuke are spending the night with Itachi and Kazuya. Hiro and Hana are sleeping. Come on. Lets go to bed. It isn't often that we get this."

Turning and kissing his wife Sasuke held her close as he pushed her back to lay on the couch. "Who said we need to go to bed?" Then he dipped his head and kissed her neck.

Gasping and then smiling, Hinata clung to her husband. Four children and each time he touches her like this she feels like she is going to set fire from the inside out. After a moment she did push him off of her slightly. "Sasuke…."

Lifting her in his arms Sasuke smiled. "The bed it is."

Hinata giggled as she threw her arms around his neck as he headed down the hall. She loved her life and wouldn't change it for a single thing. Not one single thing.

"My Lord you wished to see me?"

"I did. Have you done as I have ordered?"

"I have. They have all gone complacient."

"Have you located what I desire?"

Nodding black hair lowered in front of his face. "I have. Three have been placed under the protection of the Kazekage. Three under the protection of the Hokage. Though, there is still only one Kazekage, as of tomorrow there will be three Hokage."

"And they will no doubt rush to the others side for help."

"Exactly."

"I see."

"When will you act My Lord."

"I still need some time to prepare for this. Six months at the least."

"Yes My Lord."
