During the dream thoughts are in normal text and everything else is in italics


~~**Dream**~~

There was blood. And screams. Her mother came into view and picked her up along with her brother. She ran, her father following, watching behind them all the time.

"Go! He's here! I'll try stop him! Just run!" he father cried. Her mother continued running.

I wonder if she knew she'd never see him again?

Yana was petrified. She'd already seen most of the clan die before her very eyes. Her mother hid her behind one of the secret door panels then moved to hide her little brother. But he was already here.

"Ah. Another one. I don't suppose that foolish man who tried to stop me was your husband trying to give you time. Fool. He wasted his time."

"You bastard!" cried her mother. The man struck her mother down and picked up her little brother. She looked at her mother lying in a pool of her own blood, her eyes glazed over completely, dead. Next her brother's lifeless body was thrown to the floor. She tried not to make a noise then ran to their bodies.

"Ah so one was hiding." The man picked her up and stared at her. She could not see his face, it was in shadow. She glared at him, staring right through him, picturing him lying dead on the floor instead of her clan. The man flinched and put her back down. She continued glaring at him.

"Don't glare. I'm letting you live, I can see that you are quite strong and I'm interested as to how things will turn out. If you can survive of course. That's quite a strong murderous intent." Then he disappeared.

"Mum… Dad… brother…anyone…" she whispered. "No!"

~~** End dream**~~


Kakashi woke up with Yana fidgeting in her sleep. What the…? What the hell, is she dreaming? She mumbled something and Kakashi leaned closer to hear it.

"Mum… Dad… brother… anyone…" She had a brother! She's dreaming of when they were killed. Before he knew it she'd grabbed hold of his waist and was gripping on to him. He felt her relax and her breathing return to something nearer normal. He stroked her hair and tried to sooth her, gradually he fell back to sleep with her still gripping him. Yana smiled, a small smile but it was there.

It was dark. She was alone. Everyone was dead. She'd seen it all. Then there was a voice and the darkness lightened a little.

"Yana-chan? Are you ok? Hey now, what's wrong? I'm here now." Kakashi. Kakashi was with her, she wasn't alone. Not everyone that she cared about was dead. Kakashi was alive and she cared about him now. Onii-chan.

Yana woke up in the morning to find Kakashi had already got up. She wandered out of the bedroom, rubbing her eyes.

"Hey sleepy head." She looked up at Kakashi who was in the kitchen cooking… pancakes!

"Pancakes! My favourite!" she jumped onto a seat and sat waiting expectantly at the table.

"Who said these were for you?" said Kakashi with his back to her so she wouldn't see him smiling. "This is my breakfast." Yana turned downcast and he grinned. "Yana, I'm joking." She cheered.

"Yay! Pancakes!" Kakashi set the plate down in front of her.

"Call it a late birthday breakfast since you only told me last night about your birthday." She froze then carried on eating.

"Thank you." Kakashi grinned.

"You wait till I tell Anko and Iruka. We'll have to find them anyway and go shopping again because I won't be able to carry your bed by myself." Yana laughed.

"Can Asuma-san and Kurenai-san help too?" Kakashi looked up surprised then smiled.

"Sure. Hey, I'm glad you're getting to like all my friends," Kakashi paused. "But you know… you probably need friends your own age too." Yana laughed.

"What's the point, I can hold my own against any of your friends and besides most kids my age can't talk properly yet. Like I could hold a decent conversation with them! Thanks but I'll wait till they can talk properly!"

Kakashi stopped surprised. Of course. She developed early so she can talk really well. I forgot most others her age won't be able to. Hmm, this might turn into a problem if she develops an attitude were she thinks she's superior to everyone else her age. It won't make her any friends. He looked down at her and was interrupted from his thoughts by a banging on the door.

"Yeah, I'm coming!" he went to the door and opened it to Anko, Iruka, Asuma and Kurenai.


"Yay! The gang is here!" yelled Yana.

"Hey girlie!" cried Anko running to her. "Hey! What the heck are you wearing?"

Yana tugged at Kakashi's t-shirt that he'd lent her. "It's huge isn't it? Onii-chan lent it me coz we realised that we hadn't bought me any pjs. And I had to sleep in his bed coz I don't have a bed either!" Iruka face palmed.

"I knew there was something else yesterday when I asked." Yana pouted.

"I would have told you but Onii-chan covered my mouth." Anko hit Kakashi over the head.

"What the hell did you do that for?" she yelled into his ear. He wiggled a finger in his ear.

"Jeez thanks for deafening me. I dunno why I did it but because of it I found out she talks to people with her mind!"

"Whoa! You serious?" asked Asuma. Kakashi nodded.

"Yeah, she scared the hell out of me! I nearly dropped her plus… she has got one foul mouth!" Yana scowled and sat facing the wall muttering.

"What do you mean 'foul mouth'?" asked Kurenai.

"I mean I don't think her parents cared much about what they said around her so she's got quite an expansive vocabulary!" A squirrel ran up his leg and wrapped its tail around his eyes. "Yana!" Kakashi jumped about a bit before Yana changed back and jumped back down on to the floor. "Yana why did you do that?" he said rubbing his head.

"Gomen." She walked towards the door. "Come on. We need to get some more stuff right?" she opened the door and stopped at the threshold. "Besides, I want to see Hokage-sama. There's something I need to tell him." Kakashi looked at her surprised.

"Why do you need to see Hokage-sama?" asked Iruka. "You only just saw him yesterday."

"I know. But I forgot to tell him something, he's probably worrying himself about it." She walked out the door and started down the steps. Suddenly she was thrown up into the air and caught by someone. Kakashi smiled up at her.

"Hey don't worry me like that, you sounded so depressed! Where's the cheerful, bubbly girl who told me yesterday that she could smile and laugh because of what her uncle told her, hey?" Yana smiled and laughed as Kakashi started tickling her.

"Onii-chan! Anko! Iruka! Anyone! Help me!" They all stood there laughing at her.


Everyone was in a better mood now to go shopping. Kurenai pointed out that Yana didn't have any shoes either so that was just one more thing to get. Anko and Kurenai looked at pjs and shoes with Yana whilst Kakashi, Iruka and Asuma looked at beds.

"I think you would be better off getting her that one," said Iruka.

"No that one would be better," said Asuma. They glared at each other and raised their fists. Kakashi stood at the counter and smiled at the attendant.

"That one please," he said pointing to a different bed completely. Asuma and Iruka face planted.

"Why this one?" complained Asuma as he and Iruka carried it back to the apartment. "It's huge! An adult bed!" cried Iruka. "Hey Kakashi, how come you aren't helping us to carry it?" Kakashi shrugged and carried on walking.

"You two picked it up so I let you carry it. Besides, I got that bed because it's big. She won't need to get another bed again will she?" He opened the door to find Anko and Kurenai frantically running around, nearly in hysterics.

"What the…? Hey! What's going on here?" They both stopped and immediately ran towards Kakashi yelling.

"We can't find Yana! We've looked everywhere!" cried Kurenai.

"She talked us in to playing a game of hide and seek but we haven't been able to find her!" sobbed Anko, crying in to Iruka's shirt. Iruka looked slightly shocked and patted her back awkwardly.

"Erm… it's ok. Anko… it's… ok…" stammered Iruka and looked bewildered at Asuma who was experiencing something similar from Kurenai.

"Onii-chan!" Yana suddenly appeared right above Kakashi's head and landed on him. "Onii-chan you're back! Can you play hide and seek with me? Anko and Kurenai aren't very good and then they started running around like headless chickens when they couldn't find me!" Kakashi laughed.

"Kakashi! It isn't funny! Don't encourage her, we were panicking!" yelled Anko, who by now had recovered and looked embarrassed at crying into Iruka's shirt. Kakashi grinned trying not to laugh anymore.

"Gomen, I just found it funny!" he cleared his throat and tried to sound serious. "Now, Yana apologise to them. You shouldn't scare them like that." Yana looked very ashamed and picked up a cushion off the couch and hugged it.

"Gomen." She looked down and covered half of her face with the cushion. A pair of dog ears popped up on her head. "Gomen. I didn't mean to scare you," she mumbled. Anko pulled a face and tried not to start crying again. She and Kurenai both ran to Yana and hugged her.

"Don't look like that! It's too cute! You're making us feel bad!" they cried. Iruka noticed the little evil smirk on Yana's face but it quickly vanished.

"Gomen," she said again.

"Stop!" they cried. Kakashi laughed and looked on admiringly realising that Yana had them all wrapped around her little finger.

"Hey Yana, didn't you want to go see the Hokage?" Yana looked up biting her lip.

"Oh yeah. He's probably gonna kill me for not telling him before so the sooner I tell him the better it is for me." She ran to the door. "Come on then!" Asuma and Kurenai hesitated before turning to Kakashi.

"Well actually me and Kurenai have a mission to do, only a D-rank one but we do need to do it. You guys go and tell us how it goes," explained Asuma.

"Ok, don't take advantage of poor Kurenai-chan while you're on this 'mission' ok Asuma-san?" called Anko running out the door after Yana. Kurenai blushed and went to go after her when Asuma pulled her back, putting his arm around her waist. She blushed even more and looked at the floor. Yana and Anko who had been watching at the door burst in to laughter and fell backwards down the stairs before lying in a heap at the bottom still laughing.

"Jeez, they are so easily amused!" sighed Iruka. They said goodbye to Asuma and Kurenai then made their way to the Hokage's office.


"Hokage-sama!" yelled Yana as she burst in to the room. The Hokage nearly choked and hurriedly put away a bright orange book.

"Yana-chan! What a pleasant and unexpected visit!" he said looked down the hall at Kakashi, Anko and Iruka trying to catch up. When they got there Anko and Iruka collapsed on the floor and Kakashi held on to Yana.

"Gomen sensei!" he gasped. "Yana I told you not to run off!" he scolded her. She giggled at him and tried to squirm out of his grip. "Stop squirming!"

The Fourth laughed.

"Well you two seem to be getting along nicely. Don't worry about her running in Kakashi, I don't mind as long as she doesn't make a habit of it."

"Did you hear that Yana? Don't make a habit of it," he said to her still trying to hold her still.

"Ok ok Onii-chan! I get it! Now put me down!" he let go of her and she scurried back up his arm on to his shoulder, her favourite spot.

"Now you tell the Hokage whatever it was you wanted to say." Yana looked back at Anko and Iruka still collapsed on the floor behind them. "Yana? Yana!" Kakashi snapped his fingers in front of her face. "Oi! Yana!" She turned to face him.

"What?"

"Tell him what you wanted to say." She sighed and looked down miserably.

"You're all gonna shout at me."

"No we won't! Yana I promise we won't!" protested Kakashi.

"Yeah whatever, I bet you still will," she sighed and jumped down on to the floor. "I forgot to tell you before. The secret. The secret of why my clan was killed and why I am like I am."
