Chapter 2
Recap: She holds his hand tighter, "We don't have to do that, I have everything I need right here." She points to where she knows her crystal is.
Kakashi just laughs, "Humor me."
She smiles up at him and nods her head. He leads her out of the room then minutes later out of the hospital and into the village. The sun is just starting to set, and the people of the village are starting to calm down, to get ready for the night.
Even though the village was calming down the sight of the little girl holding hands with one of the best jounin in the village turned quite a few heads. What really caught their attention was the princess like white gown and the soft pink hair that went down past her waist.
Sakura acted like she wasn't being looked at strangely; she just smiled at everyone. For her, everything was just normal; it was like this anywhere she went. She just go used to it over the years.
The two of them walked around the village for a while, getting everything a girl Sakura's age would need. They got her everything from clothes to toys, even though she protested against Kakashi for spending so much money on her. She knew for a fact that he didn't need to buy anything for her, but he just wouldn't believe her. She hated it that he spent money on things she didn't need.
After a few hours of shopping, twenty-five shopping bags, and three Kakashi clones later they made their way to his home. It wasn't much but it was better than nothing. Even though little Sakura was not used to living in such a small place she knew that she shouldn't complain since Kakashi was so generous to allow her to stay with him.
When they entered the house Sakura just stood in the entrance way and looked around. Everything looked so neat and tidy, something she really didn't expect from a grown man that lives alone. She thought it was going to be a tad messy.
"It's so clean…"
Chuckling softly Kakashi answers her, "I'm not here enough to make it a mess. I'm normally training or on missions."
Sakura lets out a small yawn, her small hand covering her mouth.
Kakashi gently picks her up and starts to walk down the hall, to the spare bedroom. "Time for bed Sakura."
His voice fell on deaf ears, when he looked back down at her, she was sound asleep. Her hand clutching his shirt with all of her strength. She just didn't want to let go of him. He was the one in this strange place that made her feel safe. Even though she knew that she would be ok, she just didn't want to be left alone.
Since Kakashi couldn't get her to let go without waking her, he simply pulled back the covers on the bed and laid down, Sakura curled into his side. When she was sleeping was the only time that she really looked like a child. When that air of seriousness washed away and there was only a young child. He had his questions about her, but did not ask any of them due to the fact of what might happen afterwards. He didn't want to hurt her in any way; she was a precious little angel that needed to be protected at all costs. Even thought he knew that it was dangerous for a child to be on a mission of the caliber that the genin team will partake in; he knew the only place he would think of her as safe is with him. He didn't want to trust anyone else with the duty to protect her. She was his little angel.

Sakura woke to the feeling of the sun's rays on her back, warming her. Not only that but she also noticed the warmth to the right side of her. When she opened her eyes, she was met with the sight of Kakashi, his arm wrapped protectively around her, also keeping her warm.
She did her best to stay still so she wouldn't wake him, he just looked so peaceful to her, and she didn't want to disrupt that. She tried to go back to sleep, but soon found that impossible due to the fact that she had slept so much the day before. Even though she did her best to stay still she somehow managed to move enough to wake him.
"Good morning Princess."
She gasps; she didn't know that she had woke him up. "I'm so sorry I woke you."
He pulls her closer and places a gentle kiss on her forehead. "Don't be, I normally wake up earlier than this anyway. Besides I have a feeling that I am getting my squad today. We should both get up and get ready."
She nodded her head and got up, heading to the bathroom to get ready for the day. When she was getting dressed she thought that it might be weird for people to see her in a elegant gown, so she decided to wear one of the little fighting kimonos that Kakashi had bought her the day before. Even though she knew she could have anything she wanted by the power of the crystal, she decided that since he spent his own money on her that she would wear what he bought for her. Plus she really liked it. It was a black with a silver dragon design on it. It went down to about her knees, with slits on both sides up to her waist. She wore silver shorts under it as well. She pulled her hair into a long braid down the middle of her back. With the power of her crystal she produced a silver necklace, the pendant a silver crescent moon. She made it so it would never come off without her consent.
When she left the bathroom, and went back into the bedroom Kakashi was already dressed and ready to go.
"Let's go get some breakfast then we can go gather the squad. I got the message while you were in the bathroom."
She nodded her head and walked to the door to put on her shoes. Her shoes weren't what you would expect. They were black with two inch heels, steel in-forced ribbon rapping around her ankles. Not only were they cute, they could be deadly; with compartments for poison in the heels. She might be young, but she was very dangerous.
Hey everyone, sorry that this chapter is so short, but I just haven't had much time to really write. School starts in a few days, I have been working every day, plus I have been having laptop issues. I have used all of my spare time to write, but I know that I haven't done much. So sorry again that everything was so short. Please leave a review to tell me what you think of this story and if I should continue it. I honestly don't know if I should keep going with it. I will try to get another chapter out in a few days, maybe a week. But I can't make any promises. I really want reviews so that I know what I need to do with this story. I love to get new ideas to try in my stories.
