A/N: I just wanted to point out before anyone asks, Malec won't happen in the fic cuz it's literally not possible. I would if I could, since I adore Malec (seriously you should see my YouTube recommend) but it isn't possible. For realism sake, I found Shikadai to be the best Alec match and Orochimaru the best Magnus match. So if you get where I'm going here. . . if I did Malec it would be Orochimaru X Shikadai. . . Which scares me just thinking about it. Also the Naruto characters for certain characters have changed slightly. Keep checking back since as new characters are introduced the list will hold more characters.

Chap 2

Sarada ran down the street as fast as she could make her legs go. It was a hot summer night and she felt as though she was melting. Sarada had tried to call home again on Boruto's phone, but just as he mentioned it wasn't a phone. It didn't even look phone-like with no numbers but strange symbols. As she approached her house she noticed the lights on the second floor were on. This was usually a sign that her mother was home. Maybe everything was okay, but Sarada couldn't help but become more nervous. Sarada jogged up the steps only to be interrupted by an abrupt voice.

"Where are you going anyway Missy?"

Sarada turned around to see the door to Madame Kurenai's house open and the woman sitting on a armchair in the pitch black room.

"What?"

"Your mother-dear has been making quite a bit of racket up there. Tell her to tone it down will you? Also, the stairwell light is broken, so be a doll and get your mother's dashing "boyfriend" to change it."

"Huh? Sasuke? He isn't-"

"While he's at it the skylight is filthy, that could definitely use a cleaning."

Sarada wanted to yell out that Sasuke wasn't the landlord, but she held her tongue for the moment. Instead of arguing she just nodded her head and rushed up the next flight of steps to get to her apartment.

Cautiously she opened the door and found the lights on. Her mother's keys and handbag sat on the counter, but something felt off.

"Mom. Mommy? I'm home."

Not a single sound came in response. This was rather unusual, usually Sakura would come out and nearly hug her daughter to death before asking whether she was hungry and offer to make Sarada her favorite snack of tomatoes. Sarada ran into the kitchen and found the cabinet open, strangely there was a bottle of tabasco sauce smashed on the floor. Sarada made her way to her mother's bedroom, luckily it was untouched as if nothing was going on. Suddenly she heard a crashing noise coming from her room. Sarada ran over and opened the door to see a long scaled creature staring at her ready to pounce at any moment. Sarada let out a startled scream and tripped over the rug landing hard on the floor. The creature took that moment to pounce, and Sarada only had a moment to roll out of the way. The creature growled hollowly at her. Sarada sprang to her feet and stumbled out of the room. It opened and closed it's mouth and Sarada realized it was speaking words that sounded like "Flesh. Blood, To eat, oh, to eat."

As the thing slithered up the wall towards her, she found herself grabbing a picture of mother, Sasuke and her having a picnic in central park - and hearing it at the monster. The creature was either tough or oblivious because it wasn't phased and continued slithering towards her. "Bones, to crunch, to suck out the marrow, to drink the veins."

Sarada reached a dead end, her back touching the wall. She was stuck. Reaching into her pocket she found the device that she had taken from Boruto and gave it a brief look. Just then the creature flung itself at her knocking her to the floor.

"To eat, to eat. But is not allowed, to swallow, to savor. Pein will never know. He never said anything about a girl. Pein will not be angry."

Sarada screamed before repeatedly wacking it with Boruto's device before shoving the thing up the monster's mouth. The creature jerked back before the the thing began to ooze black liquid. The device shot out of it's mouth and hit Sarada in the head knocking her out.

…..

Light seemed to make its way through her eyelids awakening her from a peaceful slumber. As Sarada opened her eyes she noticed she was lying on damp grass. Boruto was knelt down besides her as he did something she couldn't really identify.

"Don't move."

Sarada complied but soon felt a razor sharp jab spreading down the length of her back. She heard police officers and was about to speak up, when Boruto hissed at her not to move again."

The Ravener demon stung you. Since it was dying it's not that bad, but we have to treat that wound of yours. So stop moving around."

"That. . . that awful beast, it talked." Sarada found herself shaking.

"You have seen demons talk before."

Boruto carefully wrapped a cloth around her neck.

"But.. . . the demon in Pandemonium-it looked like a person."

"That is because of the type of demon it was. An Eidolon, or shape shifter. These Raveners, they don't have that ability, so they stay in their pretty horrendous looking state, not that they are aware of that regardless."

"It. . . It said it was going to eat me."

"Right, but it didn't, because you managed to kill it Dattebasa." Boruto finished his magic work and leaned back on the grass.

"Uh. . . there are police officers, we probably should. . "

"There is nothing much we can do, there is a high chance that those aren't real officers anyway."

"What. . . what about my mom. . ."

"We have to get you back to the Institute, there is poison in your veins and if don't treat it you will be dead soon. If you are dead there is nothing you can do to help your mom." Boruto stood up and held out his hand to help her up. Sarada took his hand and let him help her up. She noted his hand was warm to the touch and comforting.

"Can you walk?" Boruto asked.

"I. . . I think so."

There seemed to be more demons as they went, so Boruto grabbed Sarada's wrists and began drawing something below the fold of her wrist.

Sarada looked confused.

"It will keep you hidden for now."

…..

"Hey… Shika? Is she gonna wake? She has been out for three days already."

"Relax Hima, she is a mundie afterall and this is demon poison we are talking about, give her time."

"But I don't want her to die. She is a pretty girl, like Granny!"

Sarada began to stir. She managed to pick up that she must've been out for three days.

She tried to wake up but strange dreams were invading her mind.

"Hey that's the same girl right? The one that big brother was talking about? He said she killed a Ravener isn't that amazing? I want to learn how to do that!"

"You're too young Himawari."

"Aww. . . Hey look she moved!"

Sarada's eyelids felt like iron but she slowly managed to pry them open.

"Yay, you're finally awake!"

Sarada looked over to see a younger girl sitting on the bed, she was around fourteen and had blue-black hair down to her shoulders and two whisker like marks on her cheeks. She also had cornflower blue eyes. She had a striking resemblance Boruto.

Sarada smiled not knowing how else to respond to the adorable princess.

"Is this the Institute?"

The girl jumped off the bed and did a pirouette exclaiming that yes it was.

This girl was just too cute.

A sudden stabbing feeling overcame her.

"Hey, hey miss are you ok?"

"It. . . My stomach that's all. . ."

"Oh right, you haven't eaten in three days! Yahiko told me to give this to you. It will make your tummy less queasy. That's what he said anyway!"

Sarada accepted the glass and took a sip. She was overcome with happiness by the wonderful taste.

"Wow, what is this?"

"Uhh, not sure, just a miracle potion by Yahiko! He's amazing ya know!"

She replied doing yet another cute pirouette.

"I'm Himawari by the way! Nice to meet you! I live here!"

Sarada smiled.

"I'm Sarada Haruno, did Boruto bring me here?"

"Yataaaaaah! Yes he did, dragged you in, he got blood everywhere!" Himawari replied wrinkling her nose in disgust.

"Hey! I just remembered, big brother said you killed the Ravener demon all by yourself!"

"Wait. . . Boruto is your brother? And. . . if I say yes is that surprising?"

"Yes, Boruto is my big brother and he is the best big brother ever. That's so cool you slaughtered a demon! I want to do that so badly but big brother said I'm too young."

Sarada laughed lightly.

"Where is he anyway?"

Himawari shrugged her shoulders.

"Somewhere, but I will go tell everyone you are up. I know Yahiko will want to talk to you."

Himawari skipped out of the room. A few minutes later Shikadai walked back in.

"Himawari mentioned you were awake. . . Yahiko said he wanted to see you, so after you get yourself changed and shower look for him. There are spare clothes in the bathroom waiting for you."

"Thanks, your sister is cute by the way!"

Shikadai looked confused.

"Himawari? She isn't my sister, what gave you that idea?"

"Well she said Boruto was her brother and that she lived here so I figured. . ."

"No. She does indeed live here, she is Boruto's younger sister but we aren't related."

"If. . . If they aren't your siblings, why aren't they living with their parents?"

Shikadai bit his lip and looked slightly uncomfortable.

"Because they're dead."

Sarada felt her mouth drop in surprise.

"Was it some sort of accident?"

"No. . . When Boruto was four and Himawari was two they were brutally murdered. No one saw it happen, but during a series of violent events, their parents never returned. It was presumed they died, no one could survive an event like that."

"Was it. . . . Did demons do it?"

Shikadai pulled his hands behind is back and seemed to look out the window at something.

"Listen. . . It's not really my business to discuss Boruto's life. I'm going to go let everyone know that you're up."

….

After Sarada changed into her new clothes she wandered down the hallway and found herself mesmerised by the sound of a piano. She followed the noise until she came to a dimly lit room. It seemed to be Boruto playing the piano, but he looked different then she last saw him. More relaxed and not completely in black.

He wore a plain t-shirt with a red and black jacket with a weird swirl symbol on the back. His pants were ordinary pants. His head was uncovered as well showing his tousled sunshine yellow hair. His hands danced across the piano delicately and gently. She found herself remembering what it felt like to be supported by those hands. Bad Sarada she thought to herself. In her ponderings she must have made some noise because Boruto stopped playing the piano.

"Shikadai? What are you making such a noise for?"

"It's not Shikadai. . . It's me, Sarada."

Boruto sighed and pushed himself to a standing position.

"So. . . finally awake. Was anyone with you when you woke from your slumber?"

"Well. . . Himawari and eventually Shikadai came, he said to wait but- Also on a second note, you never mentioned a sister."

"First, I never expected you to end up poisoned in my house so I didn't think telling you about my personal life was necessary. And second damn, I should have warned them of your habit not to listen to the rules."

Boruto them made a face looking at her outfit.

"Huh. . . are those. . . Oh kami no Dattebasa. Those must be the sexy shadow hunter clothes from the catalog Temari brought back from Idris last time. . ."

"Well you burned my clothes. . ."

"Meh, demon ichor is rather dangerous. Also, I wasn't saying that you looked bad or anything. Let's go to Yahiko's quarters."

Boruto led Sarada through the expansive building and Sarada couldn't help but marvel at everything. She noticed many bedrooms as well and found herself confused.

"I thought that this was supposed to be an institute? Why the bedrooms?"

"It has many purposes. It's primarily a research institute, like you said, but we also house any shadowhunter who requests to stay for their safety. This doesn't last long though so most of time it's just Shikadai, his parents -Temari and Shikamaru- Himawari, me, and Yahiko."

"Where are his parents anyway? On vacation?"

"Definitely not, Shikamaru and Temari sorta act as foreign diplomats of some sort. They run the New York Institute but there are many others. Right now, they're in Idris, the Shadow Hunter Home country, for peace negotiations."

"Idris?"

"Yes, I'd also be rather surprised if you had heard of it. Think of it as between southern Germany and France."

Sarada felt herself even more confused.

"So have you been there?"

"Uh. Yeah, sorta Dattebasa. I mean I was born there and lived there for the first years of my life. Most Shadowhunters come from Idris anyway, other's are sent wherever they are needed and some, like Shikadai, are born out of Idris since that is where their parents are."

"You. . . you moved out because your parents died?" Sarada asked gently.

Boruto clenched his fists.

"None of your business Dattebasa." Suddenly Boruto stopped at an arch shaped doorway.

"This is the library."

Boruto was about to open the door when Sarada tapped his shoulder.

"Wait!"

"Yes?"

"Shikadai and Himawari, they are the only Shadowhunter's your age you talk to right? You must get lonely."

"Meh. Not really, I have everything I need."

Without another word Boruto pushed the Library doors open and Sarada followed him in.

Sarada walked in and saw a man waiting with orange hair sitting in a chair and flipping through a book.

"Hello there, I'm Yahiko a professor of History and all that!"

Sarada smiled.

"Sarada Haruno."

Sarada could have sworn his eyes widened a little at the last name.

"Wonderful to make your acquaintance, I've heard great things about you. Like that you managed to kill a Ravener with your bare hands."

"Uh, well it wasn't my bare hands, not really. It was Boruto's . . ."

"She means my sensor, shoved it down it's throat. Speaking of sensors, I will need another."

"There are extra in the weapons room, you should know that Boruto. Now you managed to choke the Ravener with Runes? Genius! What gave you that idea?"

Before Sarada could answer she wasn't thinking about that aspect she heard a snort. She looked and saw Shikadai lazily slouched in a poofy arm chair.

"Troublesome, I hate Raveners."

"Of course you would find killing a Ravener troublesome Shikadai Nara. The Laziness really does run in your blood. Anyway, Sarada, what concerns me is why a Ravener would take interest in your mother."

"It could have made a mistake?"

"Raveners don't make mistakes, demons in general don't make mistakes. If a demon went after your mother, there must've been a reason. If she did something."

"What?" Sarada asked startled.

Shikadai flipped pocket knife through his fingers.

"What Yahiko is saying is that powerful demons do not usually just go after people. It was some desperate power hungry fool who managed to find themselves a warlock to sick a demon on your mother."

"But, my mother doesn't know any warlocks! There's Madam Kurenai downstairs, she's a witch."

Yahiko raised an eyebrow.

"You have a witch as a neighbor?"

"I checked it out, she's a fake Dattebasa." Boruto chimed in.

"Warlocks are born magic users, whereas witches are humans who taught themselves some magic." He continued.

"Looks like we are looping on ideas. Unless, Boruto are you hiding something from me?"

Boruto sighed.

"I may or may not have put a rune on her."

"ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND BORUTO? You know that the Law says about planting marks on Mundanes!"

"But it worked Dattebasa. Sarada show them your arm."

Sarada held out her arms still a bit startled from the yelling. The place where the mark was had faded to a barely visible scar.

"See I told you! It's almost gone, it didn't hurt her."

"Boruto, what matters is that you could have turned her into a forsaken."

"But she isn't a mundane! Haven't you listened to anything I've said. The mark worked on her, and she could see us with the glamours! She has to have the blood of the Clave. It is literally the only explanation."

Sarada lowered her arm clearly uncomfortable from all the eyes on her.

"But. . . It's impossible. . . I couldn't. My mother she would've told me if she was. . . my father well he is dead. . . . Sasuke. He must've known. . . Oh no! It's been three days! Sasuke must be frantic! Please can I call him?"

Boruto hesitate before looking at Yahiko who pointed at an old fashioned phone.

Sarada quickly dialed the number.

Sasuke picked up after a few rings.

"Sasuke! It's me Sarada!"

"Sarada. You're alright?" Sasuke asked relieved.

"I'm doing fine. . . My Mom. . . she!"

"Yes I know, the police came."

"Did they say anything?"

"No, she was declared as missing. Where are you?"

"Well, somewhere in the city with friends. I could take a cab to your place?"

"No. Sarada stay where you are, it's too dangerous here."

"But. . ."

"Whatever bind your mother got himself into has nothing to do with me or you, stay where you are."

"But, I don't want to stay here. I don't know anyone and you-"

"Sarada, I'm not your father. I've told you that before. I'm sorry, a lot is going on and right now . . . I don't have time to deal with more. . . For now. . . don't call me." Without another word the phone went dead.

Sarada's eyes stung she felt as though a heavy stone was on her heart.

"I think I would like to talk to Sarada on my own." Yahiko decided.

Boruto looked like he wanted to argue but nodded. He gave Sarada a sympathetic glance before dragging Shikadai out the door.

"Now then. You've been quite strong during this trying time. I'm surprised you haven't broken down yet. Would you like some tea?"

Sarada felt like laughing bitterly.

"No I want my mother back, and to kill the person who took her."

"Well, tea is really the only option I have."

"What am I supposed to do?"

"When you saw the demon in the apartment, was that your first demon sighting?"

"No. Pandemonium. When I saw Boruto."

"Ah yes, Boruto mentioned that. Did your mother every mention anything. Maybe show an interest towards the supernatural?"

Sarada just looked down.

"No, she hated the stuff, thought it was too childish."

"Strange. . ."

"Not really, my mother was the opposite of strange. She was the most normal person around."

"I'm sorry to break it to you, but normal people don't find their home wrecked by a demon, and speaking of that, Boruto said it spoke. Enlighten me on what it said."

"Something . . . Something about a Pein."

Yahiko froze in place.

"Pein?"

"Well yes, I heard the same name in Pandemonium from the demon boy."

"Pein is a name we are all too familiar with. . . he was a shadowhunter."

"Was?"

"Yes. He is dead, and has been dead for twelve years."

"Could it be someone else then?"

"Definitely not, but it could have been someone sending an ominous message and this is the perfect time to do it!"

"Why is that?"

"Because of the Accords with the Downworlders. My apologies this must be so confusing to you. Downworlders are those that share this world with us Shadowhunters. Think werewolves, vampires, warlocks, and fair folk."

"What are shadow hunters exactly then?"

"We have been called both Nephilim and Shadowhunters, but story holds that the first shadow hunter Hashirama Senju summoned the Sage of Six Paths who mixed his blood with the blood of Man in a cup. Those that drank from this cup with the angels blood became Shadowhunters. The cup became known as the mortal cup. Although this might just be a legend, those that drank from this cup could become a shadowhunter and we have always been able to create more shadowhunters with the cup."

"You speak of the cup in past tense." Sarada noted.

"Yes, Pein destroyed the cup before he died. He obliterated his love, her child, as well as the hero Naruto and his wife Hinata. The land was charred and people won't build on that land."

"What exactly did he do other then destroy the cup?"

"Pein broke the greatest law of all. He turned on his own kind and slaughtered them. His group, the Circle, sometimes called the Akatsuki since they believed they were the answer to all, killed dozens of Shadow hunters and hundreds of Downworlders. Every treaty we worked so hard to establish, he trampled to pieces."

Sarada gasped.

"But why would he do something so awful?"

"He didn't approve of the Accords. He had a grudge against Downworlders, and wanted this earth to be pure with nothing but human beings. The Clave was against this. Once the Downworlders realized that the Clave wasn't against them, well the Accords did get signed, but not before blood shed happened. My apologies this must be dreadfully boring for you!"

"No, it's quite fascinating hearing about this actually. But who would want to invoke his name anyway?"

"That I am not sure of."

Sarada thought for a bit before she spoke up.

"Is there a chance that I could go home? I want to see what's left."

Yahiko thought for a moment.

"It really isn't a wise decision, but yes. Only if you get Boruto to go with you. He is in the weapons room."

Sarada followed the cat named Tora to the weapons room. It looked exactly as how she expected it to look, which is something that rarely ever happened. Boruto and Shikadai were bent over an object intently inspecting it.

Boruto looked up.

"Where'S Yahiko?"

"He is writing to something called the Silent Brothers."

Both Boruto and Shikadai shuttered.

"What are you doing?"

"Polishing weapons."

"So, Yahiko said I could go back to my apartment to look at things, If you will go with me."

Boruto nearly dropped his blade.

"So, you want to see if there are clues?"

Sarada nodded, thankful he understood.

"Alright then! If we go now we should have a few hours before it gets dark Dattebasa."

Before Shikadai could protest Boruto dragged Sarada out of the room and towards the exit of the institute.
