Prologue – Within a minute.

Uzumaki Kiyomi, a nearly five year old girl ran through Konoha to get away from the people chasing her. She had once again tried to buy some decent food two weeks before her birthday. She knew when the villagers ran; they ran after her and only her. She saw her path become dark; in the darkness everything became slow. The only thing she could see was the villagers behind her, and a light in front of her. Every time she would touch this light, it disappeared and found a new place to show up. Every time she would run to it, and every time it would became farther and farther away. It didn't matter how much she ran, it would just be longer. And in the end, the villagers got to her.

When the darkness fell, and the light came, Kiyomi was in an alley. She lay there, defenseless and covered in blood, her orange short sleeved shirt, now ruined… her face all scratched up with blood coming from her forehead down to her whisker-like marks, her bright red hair all messed up and her eyes a pale blue color than her normal sapphire blue. Her eyes half lid, she was wincing in pain. The last thing she saw was a couple of ANBU shoes, and then she went unconscious.

A couple of days later she woke up at the hospital… ''H-hello? Is anybody there?'' she asked in her small, quiet voice. Her throat hurts, when she talked so she couldn't really talk all that loud. ''Kiyomi? You're awake.'' A voice from an old man sounded. ''I-is my eyes open?'' She asked, scared as hell. She couldn't see anything but black. Everything was black. ''Yes, you're eyes are open, can't you see me Kiyo-chan?'' the voice asked.

''Who's there-ttebane?'' She asked, she could clearly hear the disappointed sigh, as she spoke. ''It's the third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen. Can you remember me?'' The third asked. Kiyomi answered with a nod, she remembered him clearly. All the memories they shared together, how could she forget the first person to ever treat her like a human being. ''Jiji… why can't I see-bane?'' She asked in the little voice. ''I'm afraid, Kiyo-chan, you have been beaten to blindness.'' He replied sounding sad to the little girl.

''This time they went overboard Hokage-sama. We'll have to punish them, no matter what right?'' Another voice in the room said, sounding eager about punishing the villagers for what they had done. ''No, Kakashi. I'm afraid, I don't have the power over civilians, as I do over shinobis.'' The old man replied, sadly.

''Kaka-nii-san-ttebane is that you? Why do the villagers keep hating me?'' She asked, close to tears. ''Why can't I just be like every other person my age? Why don't I have a family? Why does this only happen to me-DATTEBANE'' She screamed and started to cry. Her pale blue eyes only filled with sadness. Her voice filled with pain. And her body filled with hurt.

''Rest up Kiyo-chan, Kakashi-san and I will be back in a minute.'' The Hokage said, in an angry voice, as it sounded to Kiyomi. Kakashi and Hiruzen walked out of the hospital room, and out on the hallway, they stopped. ''I want you to look after her no matter what; this'll be your life mission. I don't want any complaining. You'll look after her any way possible. She has a dream… to become an excellent Hokage. She said she wanted to become like me.'' Hiruzen started. ''With her chakra control already great at this rate, I know she'll find a way to feel her surroundings without touching it. With her determination, I know she'll do whatever it takes to come into the ninja academy. And when she graduates, you'll become responsible for her, you'll become her sensei. Look after her at the academy; don't let her out of your sight at any minute. She only thrust you and I, and therefore I only thrust you.'' Hiruzen took a deep breath, and exhaled again.

''I have nothing to complain about, it's like adopting her like I wanted to from the start.'' Kakashi stated. He ran a hand through his silver hair, and just stood there in the hallway. ''My offer still stands, I want to adopt her. Letting her become a real little sister to me.'' He looked down on the ground then up at his leader. ''Please, can I adopt my senseis only child?'' Kakashi eyes just screamed 'I-don't-take-no-for-an-answer-and-if-you-do-say-no-I-will-take-it-out-on-the-village'.

''I believe only you can take the job as her guardian. You have all rights to adopt her, and I have no rights to say no this time. Her blindness isn't temporary it's permanent. I won't tell any other shinobi about her condition; they'll figure it out themselves. Her eyes aren't focused, they move fast. Her eyes doesn't follow anything, she just stares out in the blue. So I thrust you to take care of her Kakashi-san.'' Hiruzen replied.

''Hai Hokage-sama.'' Kakashi said bowing to the Hokage. He then left the hallway into Kiyomis room. ''Guess what Kiyo-imouto, you'll be staying with me now.'' Kakashi said adding mentally; 'and until you find the right guy, I approve of and get married. This should be hard, so you'll be stuck with me forever.'

''Really Kaka-nii-ttebane?'' She asked in disbelief. He nodded completely forgetting about her blindness. ''I can't see you nod-dattebane'' She reminded him off. ''Baka.'' Kiyomi muttered.

From nearly five to fully seven, Kiyomi found a way to feel her surroundings. Using her chakra as her eyes she managed to get into the academy. She has been living with Kakashi for two years, and now under the name of Hatake Uzumaki Kiyomi. By her side was the man she called an older brother Hatake Kakashi. They were in front of the academy. Even though she has been living with Kakashi, she still felt lonely. She could still feel the glares; she could still hear the whispers of 'demon'. But what hurts the most for her was hearing she deserved it all. Her eyes as lonely as they could ever be her voice still as painful as for two years ago and her body still showing signs of hurt.

Kakashi hadn't given up making her happy, but at the same time he knew that only time could heal the wounds. If not time, then eventually when she felt the acknowledgement she always dreamed of.

They walked into the building hand in hand, Kiyomi looking as nervous as ever. She wore a pair of orange shorts going a little under her knees, a black loose t-shirt and a pair of black shinobi sandals, her hair was in a high ponytail and two bangs framing her face. She had only recently found out how to control her chakra the way she could, so she was a newcomer at the academy. They were halfway into the year, and she was nervous about, how they would react to her.

Her voice was still as low as it could be her eyes still as pale and her personality still as quite. It killed Kakashi seeing her like this. It killed him seeing how much she's suffering, how much she's still suffering and how big a burden she carries at such an age.

They walked in to the hallway in front of Kiyomis new classroom. They met up with the Hokage. ''Ah, I see you finally decided to show up.'' Hiruzen said looking slightly suspicious at Kakashi. ''Ma, ma, we got lost on the road of life and…'' he trailed of getting interrupted by the little girl holding his hand. ''That's a lie-ttebane.'' She said in her usual quiet voice of hers. ''Well, shall we go?'' Hiruzen asked.

He knocked on the door to the classroom, and inside they heard the teacher saying; ''Ah, that must be Hokage-sama with our new student.'' They opened the door to the room and walked in, Kiyomis hand still in Kakashis. ''Hokage-sama, Kakashi-san, and this must be…'' the teacher trailed off looking at Kiyomi. ''Hatake Uzumaki Kiyomi, sensei.'' She introduced herself to her new sensei, squeezing on Kakashis hand.

Kakashi looked won on the little girl, ''it's okay Kiyo-chan, they won't hurt you.'' He reassured. Her sensei smiled at them and decided to speak. ''I'm Umino Iruka. You can call me Iruka-sensei.'' He said clapping to gain the class' attention. ''Okay class, this is our new student, please introduce yourself.'' He exclaimed.

She could feel the attention, all on her and she decided to speak up, ''Hatake Kiyomi-ttebane.'' It was the loudest she could come with. She looked at Kakashi and Hiruzen, with slight distrust in her eyes. ''It's okay Kiyo-chan. If anybody should harm you, I'll come take them down myself.'' Hiruzen assured this time. ''I expect this class to take good care of my granddaughter. Kakashi-san, you have duties to attend to.''

Kakashi took the hint and went down to the same height as Kiyomi. ''I'll pick you up later today.'' He said kissing her forehead and disappearing in a poof of smoke. ''Kaka-nii-san.'' Kiyomi whispered. ''I'll come by tomorrow to see how you fit in Kiyo-chan.'' Hiruzen said patting the top of her head.

''T-thank you Jii-chan.'' She whispered yet again. She gasp lightly as she felt Kakashis chakra signature outside the window, she looked out to find an ANBU with a dog mask, of course she couldn't see it but she could feel it. She snickered lightly.

''Why don't you go sit down, Kiyomi.'' Iruka offered the little girl standing beside him. ''H-Hai Iruka-sensei.'' She answered going to the back of the class, sitting beside two boys, one with two fangs on his face and another one with a fan on his back.

''Ohayo, Kiyomi-chan, I'm Inuzuka Kiba, nice to meet ya'.'' The boy to her right said. ''N-nice to meet you too, Kiba-san.'' Kiyomi smiled slightly, before turning her attention to Iruka.

After class was it lunch time, ''KIYOMI-CHAN!'' Kiba yelled after her. She turned around to look at him, but not quite look at him… more at the ground she found so interesting. ''Want to eat lunch with me?'' He offered. She nodded as an answer. Kiba grabbed her hand and dragged her out to sit under a three. The entire time, they would talk and laugh. They did great together. Kiba was her first friend and she was happy for the first time in years.

''Oi, Sasuke? Aren't you a little lonely?'' Kiba yelled out to a boy across for them. Kiyomi turned her head. Yes she could feel a person sitting over there. ''Come join us Sasuke, we're better than nothing.'' Kiba offered. Sasuke rose from his seat on the grass and walked over to them. ''Hey, I'm Uchiha Sasuke.'' He introduced himself to Kiyomi. ''I-I'm Hatake Kiyomi-ttebane.'' Kiyomi smiled a light smile, making Kiba and Sasuke think about how cute she looked.

The rest of the time they talked and laughed together and before they even noticed, all three were friends. Kiyomi smiled at the thought. 'I've made friends… Kaka-nii-san is going to be happy for me.' The two boys have already started to wonder why she didn't even look down when she ate. She just took her chopsticks and looked out in the blue as she ate.

By the end of the day Kiba, Sasuke and Kiyomi split up. Kakashi came to pick up Kiyomi. Hana, Kibas older sister, came to pick up Kiba, and Sasukes older brother Itachi came to pick him up. ''So had a good day Kiyo-imouto?'' Kakashi asked, behind his ANBU mask. ''Yes, I had. I made to new friends, Sasuke and Kiba.'' She replied proudly, stunning Kakashi for a moment there. ''I'm glad to hear.'' He said, but inwardly he was killing himself… she made two guy friends. 'Damn, when they hit puberty I'm going to castrate them…' Even though he knew she made two new friends, from all that spying he made… he couldn't remember if it were boys or girls.

They got home, ate some ramen, went out for some training, relaxed and played a little until the day was over, and Kiyomi had to go to sleep. She knew from now on her life would be good. She knew from now on that her life had changed, and the way to the Hokage hat was only a few steps ahead… even though she still had a long way for that.

SOOO? What do you think? Want more, I can give you more… I can also give you candy… but I don't know where you live so you'll have to with the fic. TIHI! Beware… this is still just a pilot, it all depends on how many wants more and how many is reading this.

So if I'm going to continue I'll have to choose a pairing.
