Chapter 3: Mommy?

" Mina-chan its ok! You can call Naruto Papa but please stop crying!"

If there was one thing you never say to a child, it's to stop crying. Mina heard and he started to cry even louder which was actually starting to hurt their ears.

" Damn it Ino! And Shikamaru! Why'd you have to say that!?"

" Well I didn't think he would start crying so much!"

Mina cried even harder as he missed his mother so much because whenever he would cry or have a nightmare, his mother would always comfort him. A soft voice filled with years of pain but a deep happiness which sung through the air.

" Wah! I want Mommy! Mommy!"

" Naruto can't you do something!"

" How would I know Sakura! I don't have kids dattebayo!"

" Why do you guys have a child with you?"

The ninjas all turned their heads suprised to see their really weird teammate. Mina was still crying but he had turned to see the newcomer and through tear filled eye's, Mina jumped at him.

" Mama!"

" MAMA! But thats-"

" Shh! He stopped crying forehead so don't say anything"

Mina had jumped into the arms of a black haired, pale skinned male who only wanted to know the reason for the ear-breaking screams.

" Mama! mama, mama, mama..."

" Child, first I am male so I can't be your 'mama', and second why did you cry?"

Mina blinked his tears away and finally noticed who's arms he was actually in, it wasn't his mom but his uncle Sai! Mina still felt sad that it wasn't his mama but Sai was the closest thing so he would stay.

" Uncle sai, you look funny. Why can I see your belly?"

Sai blinked, then Naruto, then Sakura and everybody else because they weren't sure how the child knew of their teammates name.

" This style is for mobility and is non restrictive."

Mina sweat dropped because his uncle really sounded funny with no facial expression. Which was actually different from the uncle he knew in his time.

" Mina-kun how about me and you go play while your mom goes on the mission?"

" Really! Yea! Let's go uncle! Is Sana-chan coming with us too?!"

" No she is with her mother who wanted to take her shopping, like always. Anyways shall we go"

" Yea!"

An older Sai with years of experience stood tall next to the small child, the man smiled while listening to Mina and the time Arashi played a trick on Papa with his toothpaste. He had regained his lost emotions after so long, but he would do it all over again if he could. As long as his strong hearted wife kissed him every morning and his courageous daughter laughed in the evening.

The memory faded from Mina's mind, he had heard a few stories of his uncle being somewhat closed off when his father was younger but he couldn't really imagine it. But he had the reality in front of him now, but the big question was, was his mama different too? Would his mother not want him? Mina did not know so he would simply find out. He needed to know where Mama is, because mama gave him a very special mission and only Mama knew where uncle was at.

So the day went without anymore hitches, until the night of course and where team 7 had to decided who was going to take Mina-chan home.

" Ok Well, I can't take him, my parents would kill me if I brought a child back home."

" B-But Sakura-chan! I only have one bedroom dattebayo!"

They both looked to Sai but the teen was already leaving, and Mina-chan was simply waving goodbye to him. Sakura looked back at Naruto with an expression which scared most men.

" Naruto, you are going to take Mina-chan home, and you are going to like it. Anyways have fun" So, Sakura left with a queasy Naruto and confused Mina.

" Papa, are we going home?"

" Uh, um yea I guess but there's not a lot of room so don't break anything or at least don't try to break it dattebayo"

" OK let's go!"

They left, arriving at Naruto's apartment in five minutes as they were not too far away. Mina stared at his younger papa's home with confusion, he did not understand why it was so small. After all Papa was a hero, but now that he thinks about it he isn't actually sure when his Papa became a hero. His siblings knew more about their parents than he did, but he was the only one who survived. Mina shook the bad thoughts away and decided to search through the apartment to look for stuff or hints about Mama.

He looked through the kitchen and bathroom, but there was nothing there so he went to check the bedroom and a gleam of light caught his attention. Mina found a picture on the night stand, Mina walked closer and closer till his fingers could clasp onto the photo. Mina stared at the photo and was met with a really younger version of his mother, yes Mina could exactly tell how his mother looked no matter what. Mina hugged the picture tightly as tears rolled down his face.

" mama...(hic)...mama..."

"Kid are you in her-?"

Naruto opened his bedroom door to find Mina-chan crying onto the team seven picture frame.

" What's wrong dattebayo!?"

Mina looked at his Papa then his mama, and then back at papa. Mina lifted the picture and showed it to Naruto.

" Who's this?"

Mina was pointing at Uchiha Sasuke. Naruto was shocked but what was the harm of telling a child?

" This is my teammate, his name is Sasuke but he's not here anymore."

Mina did not understand, why wasn't mama here?

" But why?"

" Why? I don't know.."

" But you do!?"

" I don't!"

" Fine! He ran away with some asshole snake! He betrayed us, Me! I-...I..."

Tears rolled down Naruto's cheek's, the remembrance of Sasuke leaving flashing through his mind. Mina did not know what to do, he never saw his papa this sad. But with a child's purity, Mina hugged Naruto with his small arms.

" Papa why are you sad that M-um Uncle left?"

" Im sad... B-beacuse he was like a brother to me"

Mina knew that was not the truth, Papa was so stubborn.

" So you love uncle?"

Naruto froze with utter shock and disbelief, no one had ever asked him that and it sent his heart pumping.

" Papa do you love uncle?"

" I- I don't know.."

Mina tilted his but little head while thinking of something.

" Well, I love mama and papa. And Mama always told me how loving someone is painful and sad and miserable."

" That seem's sad..."

" But Mama also said that love is happy and full of tears with lots of kisses. So here you go Papa"

Mina kissed Naruto on the cheek and forehead, Naruto eye's widened as he felt a familiar love from the child. Mina smiled at his father hoping he would get the idea.

" Your a weird kid dattebayo but you're smart"

" Thanks Papa...Ahhh.."

Mina yawned as he felt tired from the day, he rubbed his eye's as they threatened to fall. Naruto smiled and put Mina-chan on the bed while he settled down next to the small child.

" Goodni...papa"

" Sleep tight..Mina"

And as Mina fell asleep, the moonlight hit the sleeping child making Naruto's face scrunch up in confusion.

" Why do you look so much Sasuke?"

Naruto closed his eye's with a painful force, an image of Sasuke and Mina clouded his mind.
