I don't own Naruto, only the plot!


Chapter 3 - Su-Shi-Sui

I was already late, so I had thought that using a shortcut would be perfect and had saved me enough time to arrive punctual. The only negative point about the shortcut was that it is a long dark alley, not that I feared the darkness, I just hated the smell of the dirt which nobody had cleaned since forever. That smell stank so strong that it would rotten my nose if I ccouldn't escape it fast enough (run!). So when I saw the light from the end of the alley, I started to sprint.

"Sak-wuaaaah!"

How unlucky, when I crossed the imaginary goal line, I expected to run into air, but no, it was someone with an idiotic smile over his face and was named Naruto. He happily called out to me, but that expression changed when we collided.

"Are you alright, Sakura?"

Kushina easily lifted me up and tried to get the dirt from my red dress and black shorts, while Minato did the same with Naruto. They all were dressed nicely, Kushina wore her white-green dress and Minato his blue clothes without the whole Hokage-outfit around. Only Naruto was always in different clothes, I believe he always manage to damage them in a way that he couldn't wear it twice, considering that Kushina was good at stitching. Today was an orange t-shirt with the symbol on the front side and simple black shorts.

"I'm fine. Sorry. Thanks."

I must have said it in a too cute voice, there would be no other explanation for why else Kushina was trying to cuddle me to death.

"As much I don't like to interrupt, but we're already late, letting the Uchiha's even wait a second longer wouldn't be nice and may cost my head."

"Ah right, let's go so Daddy pays with his head!"

Nobody was sure if Naruto understands the normal way of talking or if he only was so stupid to comprehend the situation.

Instead of fully letting me off, she hold on my hand, dragging me along.

"How comes you are late, Sakura? Normally you're an early bird."

While Minato asked the question, he kept greeting the people on the street. With Naruto doing the same to all know and unknown people, running from place to place with the stupid grin on his face.

"I was in the library reading a book and forgot the time."

"Aww~! You're so cute!"

Luckily we were walking, if not, there would be no guarantee for a second cuddle attack.

"Ah why can't we have a daughter, ne Minato!"

Her husband laughed embarrassed. On the street you could hear some people snickering. You could bet that there will be a new rumor spreading in Konoha.

We soon reached the entrance of the Uchiha mansion. Naruto was about to knock, when the door were opened from the other side.

"You're late, Minato."

It was none other than Fugaku Uchiha in person.

"Sorry Fugaku, there was too much work piled up and doing paperwork isn't my favorite occupation in the job."

"Daddy has to pay with his head!"

The interruption and useless comment form Naruto got ignored by Fugaku.

"Hn. Come in."

He guided us in, I silently walked behind. The design of the Uchiha compound was impressive as always, everywhere you look you could find the Uchiha crest fan. He opened a door after another, soon we arrived in a empty lounge. He advised us to sit down on the dining table which was already set.

Naruto's parents each took the place on the end of the table, while I calmly sat next to Kushina, Naruto was loudly sitting next to his father, complaining why his father's head was still there.

Fugaku disappeared to the kitchen, but soon came back with his family tailing behind.

"Ah you're all finally here."

"Mikoto! Thank for inviting us and my apologize that we came late."

"Don't worry about it."

I nervously hold my dress, that belonged to the part of my acting of the nice girl.

"Hi Sasuke, Itachi and Mikoto, oh and sorry that I came late as well. The book I was reading didn't let me off."

Sasuke and Itachi greeted me back and then they greeted the Uzumaki's.

"As I said, don't worry about it."

After she set the sushi plates down, she took the place next to Sasuke who was sitting next to Naruto. Fugaku sat on the opposite of her and Itachi sat down after he put the other plates on the table.

"Today we invited you over to celebrate Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura's successful entrance to the Academy."

Mikoto hold her cup with sake up, the adults followed her and we minors hold some orange juice up.

"Cheers!"

After many clang's sound we started to eat and talk about tomorrow's first day in the academy. Only two boys didn't, they were more arguing and quarreling. Soon both started to eat sushi as fast as possible.

"Teme! I'll gonna be the best in the Academy!"

Still stuffing sushi in his mouth.

"You'll never be able to beat me, Dope!"

"What did you call me, Teme?"

"Dope!"

"TEME!"

"DOPE!"

They both glared at each other.

It may would have escalated if Kushina had not hit Naruto on the head and giving him a tongue-lashing. When Sasuke wanted to laugh harder he got a warning look from both of his parents.

That was effective for ... and over.

"Teme! That was my sushi!"

The sushi which got snatched away from Naruto landed in Sasuke's mouth.

"Hn?"

"TEME!"

This time Minato tried to calm Naruto down, surely didn't help and only got Kushina more impatient till the point she vent her anger on Naruto who now has two bumps on the head.

I was chuckling the whole time.

"Should I accompany you tomorrow to the Academy Entrance Ceremony, Sakura?"

Was a sudden question from Itachi, who was dipping his sushi in soja sauce.

"Why is Itachi going for Sakura and not for me?"

His sulking little brother asked, Mikoto patted his head and reminded her son about my situation while trying not to hurt me.

"Sakura parents can't come, but they are watching Sakura from above."

As soon as Sasuke get what his mother meant he got sad, even Naruto was silent. It was no problem for me to live on my own, but it bugged them more that I do, to me this two right now looked really adorable.

"Don't worry Sakura! Marry me than you belong to our family!"

A sudden proposal from Naruto, does an idiot like him even understand the meaning of marriage?

"Sakura is going to marry me!"

That was an unexpected protest from Sasuke, but had a bigger impact on me, my cheeks turned red. My body was the one of a six-year-old, but that does not change the fact that I am actually way older than I look like. I could not stop myself for blushing like a maniac. Luckily they cared more about themself than to look at my face.

As always if they disagree on a thing they both starts to argue.

"I'm a Uchiha!"

"And? I'm the Hokage's son!"

"Yeah, but also an idiot!"

"What did you say! I'm going to be the best ninja!"

"I'm going to better than you, idiot, idiot, idiot!"

"TEME!"

"Now now, you both stop it."

Mikoto tried to calm them both , while Kushina glittery looked at her husband, signaling the idea she had, which I could tell that it was nothing that would suit me. I belonged to the secret NarutoxHinata fanclub, with me as the president and only member.

At least I got the redness off my face.

"Itachi, thanks for asking, but aunty from the orphanage is going attend the Academy Entrance Ceremony, since there are two other children than me who also going to go to the Academy."

"I see, then Sakura,-", he was suddenly holding my right hand, "how about you marry me?"

With that he kissed my hand and winked. His words meant nothing, just empty talk, he only wanted to provoke the two blockheads on the other side who as stupid as always reacted and started to attack Itachi in ninja style, but instead of throwing shurikens or kunais, they used chopsticks and sushis.

...

...

...

It was already getting dark, Sasuke and Naruto were playing in the garden, trying to show off their ninja skills. Itachi was looking after them and later taught them a better way to throw a kunai, when suddenly Shisui came with a new mission. He was really a Uchiha, thirteen-year-old, black hair, onyx eyes and like all Uchiha's a high-collared, dark-colored outfit combined with the ones of an anbu. He looked beat, but only his face since it was the only visible spot, he informed Itachi in a strange way about an C-Rank mission and they both left right after.

The adults were sitting by a chabudai (small japanese table) just a terrace away from the garden and discussing various topics. Especially Mikoto and Kushina were talking about the new fashion from Suna which still has not reached Konoha, but seemed really popular. How do I know it so clear? I was lying on Kushina's lap and listening to Kushina's loud voice, no choice, because she disturbs my concentration to listen elsewhere. Since I was pretending to sleep I couldn't complain.

Finally Mikoto decided to prepare some tea and snacks, Kushina happily offered her help. She softly laid a pillow under my head, after made sure I was still sleeping she left with Mikoto to the kitchen. Now I finally could listen without trouble to the leaders, the may have some new, useful informations. They both were talking about which technique would benefit a ninja the most, but Fugaku stopped when his wife left and established a new topic.

"Few days ago Shisui got attacked and almost died."

Minato stared in the air, remembering the wounds by Shisui.

"That explains it, I heard of an incident, but nobody reported it."

"I got the mission to inform you in private, but most places were under supervision, there could have been spies. The only safe place right now is here. Everybody who tries to enter the Uchiha's compound without permission will end in a genjustu. I got Itachi and Shisui guarding outside."

That explained the strange talking which Shisui did.

"The anbu's from the first squad had taken the route through the mountain on the way back, if not, Shisui would have been death for sure. The attacker disappeared right after the arrival of the anbu's, they lost track since they needed to get Shisui to the hospital. The day after we had him questioned who the attacker was, the information he gave us left us in a difficult situation."

Minato listened carefully, not to miss any details.

For shortly I felt his eyes on me, even when I was on the opposite of the chabudai around four meters away lying near the terrace, he wanted to make sure that I was still asleep. He took it as a yes when I was breathing regularly and paid me no attention anymore.

With a serious voice he asked for the name of the attacker.

"Who was the attacker?"

"Danzo Shimura."

Minato was speechless, me as well.

"But Danzo is one of the elders, he's always thinking for the sake of the village. I can't believe it... I mean he- Did you get the name from Shisui?"

"Shisui told us all, Danzo's plan to form an alliance with Orochimaru, to steal the Mangekyou from Shisui and the hatred he has for Tsunade. What we don't understand is that he didn't even tried to flee."

They both were talking in a calm voice, but you could feel the gravity of the situation.

"I still don't really get it, but what problem does he has with Tsunade? We only shortly discussed and decided to recruit Tsunade as the head of the medic-nins? We haven't even found her yet."

"Danzo's beliefs differs from the Third, since Tsunade is a relative to him, he stated his hatred for her as well, but that's only an assumption."

"The Konoha Military Police was only formed five years ago, does he plans to take them under his command? We have some suspect that he also have some connection with the Roots."

"The Roots who shouldn't exist since th-!"

I already know why he stopped talking.

Naruto's kunai was flying right into my direction aiming for my head, it has such a ridiculous speed, I only can guess it has some of Kurama's chakra in it. Out of reflex I immediately sat up, evading the kunai which stabbed through the pillow.

When I looked from the right side to the left, all four were staring at me surprised.

Shit, a girl of only six-year-old couldn't react to it, but I didn't want to end dead either...

"Sakura?"

I'm in a pitch! Fast find an excuse, excuse, EXCUSE! Ah! The gate of the orphanage always locks at ten o'clock!

Before another one of them said a thing I stood up and rushed out.

"Oh no, it's already dark, I need to go back before they won't let me in!"

Pretending not to notice the kunai which almost killed me in one shot. On my way I picked up my bag which was not far away lying on the ground.

While the men still kept silence due to shock, surprise or whatever they felt now, Mikoto blinked in confusion when I passed her. I just wave to her and Kushina, before they would hold me back. When that happen I didn't want to get questioned from Minato and Fugaku.

If you are laughing now I can tell you that it is not amusing at all!
