Chapter 3

Minato POV

" Come In."

Two ANBU came into my office followed by two chakra signatures I didn't recognize that stopped as soon as they reached the doorway. I was going to finish the paperwork I was working on seeing as it was almost done and I wanted to get back home to Kushina as soon as possible.

"DAD!"

That exclamation had my head shooting up so fast I got a kink in my neck. In the door stood a girl about 16 years old with pink hair and green eyes, with a look of shock on her face. She wore the typical chuunin uniform with the Haruno Clan emblem on the right sleeves shoulder and she was wearing a headband that said 'shinobi'. Behind her looking over her shoulder was a 16 year old boy with blonde hair and blue eyes, He was looking a little embarrassed and flustered by his outburst. He wore a bright orange and black jumpsuit and a Leaf headband.

"Kakashi, who are they?" I asked my former student, I noted the look of surprise that crossed the strangers faces at his name.

" I don't know, sensei" came Kakashi's lazy reply, "I tried to get their names but they would give them. Then the girl with the huge forehead —" he was cut off by the girl who tried to attack him. Kakashi didn't even flinch.

"What did you say you little twerp?!" she yelled as she struggled to get to Kakashi but the boy held her and whispered something to her to calm her down. Her outburst reminded me off Kushina and I had to stop from laughing.

The boy gave me an apologetic look as he said "Sorry, da- Hokage-sama." I just nodded in response.

"Kakashi, continue"

"Well as I said, sensei," I heard the laughter in Kakashi's voice, " they wouldn't give their names. Then the girl requested to speak with you immediately so we escorted them here."

"Okay." I replied, "Well now that I am caught up on how you came to be in my office. Why don't you give me your names and what you are doing in this village. I notice one of you is wearing a leaf headband however I have never seen you before," Turning to the girl I said, "then again I have also never seen a 'shinobi' headband either."

Naruto POV

"Um… It's kind of complicated…" Said Sakura trying to think of a believable explanation that wasn't a complete lie.

"We are both Leaf Shinobi, da-"SHIT. "Hokage-sama." I spoke up so Sakura would stop worrying, so I figured I might as well drop the bombshell. "However we are from the future."

"You baka!" Sakura yelled and knocked me upside the head.

"OWW – Sakura-chan, what was that for?" I asked as I rubbed my now sore head."

"You need to think before you act , you idiot, or you're never going to became Ho- I mean, just think first or you'll never surpass you father and Tsunade-sama." She scolded.

"He had to know anyways," I mumbled, and regretted it as so as I heard Sakura crack her knuckles. "B- baa-chan would have understood." I added hastily.

"When we get back you should work as shishou's personal assistant for a month before you think of becoming Ho- before you follow your father." She said exasperated.

I heard a chuckle and looked up at dad to see him smiling before his face returned to its stoic mask. However I noticed he still had smiles in his eyes.

Minato POV

To say the boys' statement of being from the future was shocking and left me rather skeptical, but it was too far-fetched to be a lie. So I was left was two choices, either it was true or they had cracked from the pressures of being a shinobi.

"You BAKA!" the girl yelled as she hit him upside the head reprimanding him.

"Oww Sakura- chan" the boy whined rubbing his head "what was that for?"

"You need to think before you act , you idiot, or you're never going to became Ho-" the girl paused, "I mean, just think first or you'll never surpass you father" I noticed her look at me sideways "and Tsunade-sama." She scolded.

"He had to know anyways," he mumbled, becoming nervous when the crack her knuckles "B- baa-chan would have understood."

"When we get back you should work as shishou's personal assistant for a month before you think of becoming Ho-"she sighed again in exasperation "before you follow your father." She was still in full on scolding mode. Even though I didn't understand the conversation I had to laugh because clearly the boy was losing this argument. The boy looked at me and I decided it was time to end the discussion they were having.

"Okay that is enough you two." I said looking at the teens, "ANBU you may leave I'll be fine. Kakashi stay."

"Yes, sensei" came his reply as he leaned against the wall next to the door.

"Okay, you two. Sit down." I said gesturing to the chairs in front of my desk. "Now, to be honest, I do not believe you when you say you are from the future. Not that you can blame me but I also understand this is too far-fetched to be a lie so I will ask you a couple questions. These are questions that only those in my strict confidences' know the answers to. Understood."

"Yes" they both replied.

"Okay. My wife just learned the sex of our first child."

"Mom is –" whatever the boy was going to say was cut off by a punch he received from the girl.

"I'm sorry for my friend's interruption, you were saying?" Sakura bowing her head to the Hokage.

"I was saying. What is its gender?"

"It's a boy" replied the girl.

"Named Naruto." Added the boy with a smirk.

"Okay, if you know the name. Where did we get it?"

"From Ero-, Jiraiya- sama first book." Said the boy.

"Okay Last question. Who are going to be the child's godparents?"

"Tsunade-sama and Jiraiya-sama" said the girl.

"I'll believe you for now because all of these have been decided within the last week have not been made public yet." I said "Now pertaining to information about the future only give information that I deem necessary or unimportant out. So in other words don't answer any questions without my say so, there is no reason for unnecessary information to be released. Understood?"

"Yes, Hokage-sama" replied the girl. The boy just nodded in response lost in thought.

"Good. Now while you are here I will be putting you to work. So I with need you name, rank, and any special skills you have." I said looking at the girl.

"Sakura Haruno, chuunin, S-class medical-nin" said the girl.

"Okay. As you probably know the Third shinobi war ended a couple years ago and we are still low on shinobi, especially medical-nin. Tsunade-sama went into… seclusion… shortly after the war so I am need of another high class medical-nin to train future medical-nin. I will give this job to you a long with working in the hospital." I said.

"Yes Hokage-sama." Sakura replied.

"I have one last question for you, who trained you in to be a medical-nin?" I asked.

"Tsunade-sama after she returned to the village." The girl replied.

"Your skills may come in handier than I thought." I turned to the blonde, "Now your turn."

"Naruto Uzumaki" came his shocking reply and I have to say I was glad I was sitting because just hearing his name my legs would have gone out.
