Dinaji made it back to Konohagakure about 1am. She was glad she was home but was more glad that Itachi agreed to come home. She decided to go home and go to bed. She planned on telling Sasuke and the hokage the news first thing in the morning, but for now she would rest. "Dinaji?" She heard a voice say. She opened her eyes and saw Naruto and Sasuke starring at her. She looked at the clock which read 6am. "What is it guys it's too early." She said. "How did your mission go?" Naruto asked.
She yawned "I'll let you know how it went later for now let me sleep." She answered before turning over in her bed. She heard the door shut and back to sleep she went. When she finally woke it was 10 she was tired but she knew she couldn't sleep the day away. She got out of bed and decided to tell the boys the news as well as the hokage.
She got dressed and walked out of her room where she found Naruto and Sasuke sitting on the couch. "about time you woke up." Naruto said. Dinaji rolled her eyes "yeah well you know better than to wake me up especially when I just get back from a mission." She said. Naruto stuck his tongue out at her "anyways how did it go?" sasuke asked. Dinaji turned her attention to him and smiled "I found him and when I did he agree to come back." She said excitedly.
Sasuke smiled she could tell he was excited. "I'm going g to tell the hokage the news and see if we can get a place made for him. Do you want to come with me?" she asked. Sasuke 's eyes lit up she could tell it was a yes. Naruto and Sasuke left with her to go to the hokage's office. "Dinaji you're back earlier than I expected I take it things went well?" the hokage asked. Dinaji bowed "yes sir. I found him and he agreed to come home. He asked to give him a few days and that he would let me know when he was getting close so I could meet him at the gates" She said.
"Very well." He said. Dinaji rose up "I think we should make him a member of the council my lord. He is very intelligent and I think he would be able to discuss battle strategies, he would make a great sensei too. And you would be able to keep an eye on him too. The third raised his eyebrow at her "is something coming up I should know about?" Dinaji nodded "yes my lord orochimaru is planning to attack the village. It will be a devastating blow to the leaf." She said. "I see when will this take place?" he asked. "it will happen at the chunin exams in a few weeks.". She replied.
The third nodded. "very well Dinaji he will be part of the council when he gets here I want to see him first thing. I'll make arrangements for a house for him it'll be ready when he gets here.". He said. She nodded "ok my lord if I may make a suggestion what about the Uchiha manor I know is been a while since anyone has lived in it but what if myself and sasuke and Naruto clean up the place so he has a place to stay and its somewhat past my house? Also what shall I do about Orochimaru should I have the guards beef up their security?" she asked. "that would be best and to answer your question about the old Uchiha manor that would be fine." He replied to her. She nodded and began to take her leave.
She knew she had to warn the rest of the jounin before it was too late. If she and the others saw anything suspicious to investigate. Even if it took all night watches. As she and the boys walked she could hear idle gossip about Itachi coming back and weather it was a good idea to let a murderer come back. Apparently not everyone heard the hokage's speech about it. That we have new evidence and that we will find the true killer. "So Sasuke are you ready to see your brother again after so long?" Dinaji asked. She knew this would be an exciting day for him. He probably thought he would never see him again. "I am but it's been so long since I've him so it's kind of hard for me to say how I'll react." Sasuke replied. Dinaji nodded in understanding.
They walked until they came to the gates of the old Uchiha manor. She could tell Sasuke was a bit hesitant about entering through the gates. Dinaji took a breath before making the first step. There was nothing but dust and echoes. They walked around until they got to the main house, the house sasuke and Itachi grew up in.
The exterior was still in good shape but the inside was dusty and needed cleaned up. And new furniture for sure it needed. Dinaji looked around the place that had a part of her childhood. She saw something crawl down in front of her face. When she narrowed her eyes and focused on the object it revealed a spider. She gasped and jumped back almost falling on her butt. Earning a snicker out of the boys. "It's just a spider." Naruto laughed. She puffed out her cheeks and glared at her brother.
He got the hint which meant squish it or she would make his life hell for making fun of her for being scared of a spider. He squished it for her and she huffed "alright let's get this place cleaned up." She said. She knew this would take them a while but with the three of them they would have this place cleaned up in no time. Sasuke and Naruto moved the furniture out of the house. Dinaji worked on dusting, sweeping, and mopping.
Once done they decided to get some new furniture ordered to be delivered and put up the next day so it will be completely move in ready for when he returns home for the first time in 8yrs. With the furniture scheduled to be delivered and put where it needs to be and the house now clean looking like it used to before the massacre. The three headed began to walk back to the house for the night patiently waiting for the notice from Itachi letting them know that he was almost home.
