Hello everyone! I realize that this story is going to be confusing. This is kind of the point. I'd say in this chapter it should clear things up a little bit.

Sakura was up early and getting ready for her outing with Ino. She had just gotten out of the shower and was brushing her hair. After she got dressed and walked out the bedroom door, Kakashi was already getting Ino dressed and had breakfast started.

Sakura went to the kitchen and got the table set and poured everyone some juice. Obito came running into the kitchen, climbing into his chair. "Good morning Mama." Obito said rubbing the sleep from his eyes.

"Good morning little man" She said mussing his silver hair a bit, setting down his juice.

Kakashi came walking in; Ino in his arms all dressed and ready to go for the day. He sat her down in her seat and walked over to the stove to help Sakura plate up their breakfast.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY INO!" Obito yelled at the top of his lungs.

Ino giggled at her brother. "Thanks Obito."

The Hadaka family quieted down and ate their breakfast. When they were all finished Kakashi got up and started gathering the plates. Sakura lifted the two kids from their chairs. "Alright you two, go wash your hands and then Ino and I will be going." They both ran off to the bathroom to wash their hands.

"Any concrete plans yet?" Kakashi asked his wife while washing up the dishes, handing them to Sakura to dry.

"Not specifically. I figured we'd visit Ino and Choji and then maybe go for a walk through the park. Naruto wanted to meet up for lunch and then I was going to take her shopping." Sakura said putting dishes away.

"Sounds like a fun day. Obito and I are going to visit Iruka and get them enrolled for the academy this season." Kakashi wiped off the table.

"I'm ready Sakura!" Ino came running into the kitchen.

"Ok hunny, let's get our shoes on." Sakura led Ino over to the doorway to get their shoes on.

"Wait Mama, Ino!" Obito yelled from the other room.

"Hurry up Obito; they are walking out the door." Kakashi yelled back from the kitchen.

Obito ran down the hallway into the living room with something in his hand. He ran up to Ino and held out the 'present'.

"Here is your present Ino." He handed her 2 pieces of paper with drawings on them. Ino looked at them.

"I drew one of us playing ninja for you to give to your mom." Obito explained why there were two pictures.

Ino hugged Obito. "Thank you Obito."

"See you later boys." Sakura said kissing Obito on the cheek "We'll be back for dinner."

And with that they were out the door. They walked through the village, being greeted by most civilians and ninja. Sakura was the best medic there was, on par with Tsunade, so everyone in the village appreciated her for her work. She had saved a lot of lives.

"Here's our first stop Ino." Sakura motioned to the flower shop.

"To get Mommy flowers?" Ino asked.

"Yup. She used to work here with your Grandma Yamanaka when she wasn't on missions. She knew the meaning of every flower." Sakura explained. She and Kakashi agreed very early on that they would tell Ino about her mother and father. They were great people and she should know about them. They wanted Ino to know her family closely.

They walked into the shop, and the bell rang. Sakura looked to the counter and smiled. This shop brought back so many memories.

"Good morning Grandpa Yamanaka." Sakura said. Inoichi looked up and saw his favorite little girl holding Sakura's hand.

"Good morning girls!" He said smiling. He stepped around the counter and squatted down. "And happy 6th birthday to you pumpkin!" He held out his arms and the little girl launched herself into him. He hugged her tight.

"My my how you've grown. It's been a few weeks since I've seen you; I was off on a mission." He said sitting her back down on the floor. "You off to see Mommy and Daddy this morning?"

"Yup! I'm gonna show mommy how tall I am and Obito drew a picture for her!" The little girl said with sparkling eyes, holding out the picture for him to see. "It's me and Obito playing ninja!"

"I can see. It's very nice." He said standing up. "Sakura, I know you two usually do this alone but do you mind if I tag along. I haven't been up there since I was sent on that mission." He asked. She could see the sadness in his eyes.

"Of course Inoichi." She replied, placing a reassuring hand on his arm. "Hunny, Grandpa Yamanaka is going to come with us, isn't that exciting!" she asked the little girl.

"Yay! Can I sit on your shoulders?" Ino jumped up and down.

"How can I refuse such a cute little girl" He said with a chuckle. "Sakura, if you don't mind." He motioned to the flowers setting on the counter. Sakura grabbed them while Inoichi hoisted the little girl up on his shoulders.

"She looks just like her mother did at that age." Inoichi said to Sakura.

"She does. And she has the temper to match some days." Sakura and Inoichi both laughed.

They left he shop and made their way to their destination. As they were walking, suddenly Sakura felt weird. Kind of like she was dizzy but not at the same time. She didn't know how to describe it.

"You ok?" Inoichi asked concerned.

"Ya, I just felt…I dunno…kind of dizzy? I don't know how to describe it." Sakura said brows furrowed

Inoichi nodded, keeping a close eye on the girl. They reached their destination and Inoichi picked Ino up off his shoulders and set her down on the ground. He opened the door to the Akimichi burial vault. Ino rushed in and Sakura followed. While Inoichi lit the candles, Sakura let Ino to her mom and dad's burial site.

"Mommy! Daddy!" Ino yelled. She went to run forward but Sakura stopped her. She handed the little girl a set of flowers and then motioned her to go.

"Hi Mommy and Daddy. Today is my 6th birthday." Ino said setting the flowers in the holder next to her mom's site. "Oh, and Obito drew you this picture! It's of me and him playing ninja." She looked around, trying to find a place to put it, but didn't find one so she set it on the floor.

"Sakura and Kakashi said that I could start at the academy this season. So I won't have to play ninja for much longer cause I'll actually be one." Ino said giggling.

"Oh! Sakura! Can we show Mommy how tall I got?" Ino asked excitedly.

"Yes dear. Stand straight against the wall between your Mom and Dad." Sakura said, pulling a kunai out of her pouch. She walked over and marked the marble above Ino's head.

Ino stepped back as Sakura marked her age and the year in the marble next to the line.

"Wow. Look how big you got pumpkin!" Inoichi said to the little girl, mussing her hair.

'SAKURA!' Sakura spun around. She could have sworn she heard someone yell her name.

'SAKURA! SAKURA HARUNO!' She heard it again. She was looking at Ino and Inoichi and they definatly weren't yelling for her.

'FOREHEAD!' Sakura felt that dizzy feeling again.

Inoichi noticed and walked over to her.

"Sakura, are you sure you're ok." He put his hand on her back.

She looked up at him with fear in her eyes. "I hear someone calling for me." She said with a shaky voice. No one has called her Forehead since her best friend passed away.

"I didn't hear anything." Inoichi said, feeling Sakura's forehead for a fever.

'SAKURA! YOU NEED TO WAKE UP! WAKE UP SAKURA!' the voice called to her

"It's telling me to wake up." Sakura said. She felt a sharp pain in her head.

"Sakura?" Inoichi said

"Please get Kakashi Inoichi." Sakura pleaded. She had no idea what was going on.

Inoichi quickly ran off to do as she requested.

"Sakura….are you ok?" little Ino said quietly.

Sakura sat down on the ground. "I'm ok hunny. I'm just not feeling well." She pulled Ino close to her.

'FOREHEAD WAKE UP! WE ARE WAITING FOR YOU.' The voice called to her

Sudden excruciating pain over took Sakura. She put her head in her hands and moaned.

"Sakura!" She heard Kakashi yell as he ran in. He knelt down in front of her.

Sakura looked up at him and froze in shock. She could see Ino standing in the corner. Not little Ino. Dead best friend Ino.

'Sakura, please listen to me. I need you to wake up. I need you to come back home to us.' Dead Ino said, tears running down her face.

"I see Ino." Sakura said as she began shaking.

"She is right next to you Sakura, she is fine. Don't worry about her." Kakashi said running his hand though her hair and wiping away tears with the other.

"You don't understand Kakashi." Sakura said with a sob. "I see Ino. Dead Ino. Inoichi's daughter Ino."

'Sakura I'm not dead.' Dead Ino began to walk slowly towards her.

Another sudden pain "AAAHHHH" Sakura screamed in agony. She looked up at Kakashi, things started to go dark.

"Inoichi, grab the kids. We need to get Sakura to the hospital now!" Kakashi grabbed her and ran outside towards the hospital.

"Kakashi" Sakura whispered. "I love you." A tear ran down her cheek.

"Ssshhh it's ok Sakura. We're almost there." Kakashi said reassuringly.

"I love you." Sakura said again

"I love you too." Kakashi kissed the top of her head.

She blacked out.
