If any of you have questions, be free to ask and I'll answer as best I can. But for the mean time here's the next part of the story.

I do not own Naruto… Or do I? No I'm just kidding.

Hokage's Office

The day was just beginning as the sun was coming out on the horizon. Tsunade was already in her office looking through the missions that had to be done today. She sighed and looked trough them again:

Lost Dog, Rank D

Baby sitting for triplets, Rank D

Transport documents to Suna, Rank B

Tsunade leaned into her hands, they were such simple tasks. They could be done by the new genin from the academy. She needed a mission for Kakashi and his team, but the elders wouldn't let her place an A or B ranked missions if Sasuke was going. They wouldn't trust an Uchiha ever again.

Escort a Princess back home safely, Rank C

Tsunade smiled, it was perfect for them and it wasn't that far away from here. There was a knock on the door. "Come in" she said cleaning up her office a bit. A woman with short dark hair walked in wearing a green vest and she also looked dirty covered in mud.

"What are you thinking Lady Tsunade?" She said stepping in and glaring at her with her dark eyes. "Uchiha Sasuke?"

"Just calm down Shizune" Tsunade said taking a sip of her coffee "He's under control"

"What do you mean under control?" Shizune said looking at her suspiciously. "He killed Orochimaru and Itachi, he could be back to kill Naruto for all we know"

"I know" She said simply and started going through a few papers.

"He should be locked up" Shizune said and started to pace around the room. Tonton woke up and shook his head as she saw both of them talking. "He should be dead"

"I can't do that" Tsunade said closing her eyes. "I can't leave Minori alone"

"Minori?" she asked and picked up Tonton from the floor. "Who's she?"

"Minori is Itachi's daughter" she said "If we kill Sasuke she'll be without a family, and do you know where that got us with Sasuke?"

"Oh" Shizune whispered. Remembering what the elders had told them, about Itachi destroying his clan by order, about poor little Sasuke living alone and plotting revenge since he was young. Her parents were killed when died when she was little, but she wasn't alone. Tsunade helped her and look at the person she is now, just like Naruto. Sasuke on the other hand didn't have anyone to protect him.

"I won't let that happen to the girl" Tsunade sighed "Who knows what could happen if Sasuke were dead"

"Right" Shizune said "But isn't it risky letting him out like that"

"Yes" Tsunade smiled "That's why Kakashi is team captain"

"What about Sasuke's powers?" she asked.

"They've been sealed" She smiled "It took a while because of his chakra but it worked out at the end"

"One of Kushina's seals" Shizune shook her head, even in death she helped them out.

"One of the hardest" Tsunade smiled "Clean up, and tell Kakashi to come"

"Yes, Lady Tsunade" Shizune said and walked out of the room.

In the Forest

Naruto had been running for twelve hours straight. He collapsed on the floor trying to catch his breath. He shouldn't be alone, especially not when the Akatsuki was hunting him down. Naruto got up. He would get to the village no matter what.

"I won't let Sasuke leave again" he whispered and started running again.

From the distance there was someone watching him, the purple colored eyes sighed in relief. Suigetsu got up and walked back to the cave. Juugo was tied up in the back so he wouldn't go crazy again.

"Karin" he said as he entered.

"What?" she growled while healing the last scratches that Juugo had left her. "What do you want now?"

"I know where Sasuke is" he said grabbing his things. "I'm getting him back"

"And what?" she asked standing up. "You plan on leaving me with this idiot" Karin started gathering her stuff 'Why don't you stay here and I'll go get him"

"No way" he smirked "I'm not letting you get him, you wouldn't come back for us anyway"

"Why don't' we go together" Juugo asked making them both jump. "I won't do anything"

"Sorry Juugo" Suigetsu said smirking "I'm not going to risk that"

"I know" Juugo sighed and didn't struggle against the ropes.

Normal POV

Sasuke was still asleep and dreaming when Minori poked him. "Uncle Sasuke" she whispered in his ear but he didn't move "Uncle Sasuke wake up" she nudged him again but he didn't move at all. She sighed and took a deep breath "UNCLE SASUKE WAKE UP!" she shouted and he shot up from bed.

He ground clutching at his ear that was probably bleeding now. "What the hell was that" he growled and Minori looked down at her feet. "You never do that, got it" he said glaring at the little girl.

"O-okay" she said and started to tremble, tears we're coming down her cheeks. She walked away quietly to the next room.

"Why me?" he asked getting up from his bed. "Minori, wait" he was still shirtless as he ran through the hallway. Kakashi had her in his arms crying into his vest, he was already dressed and breakfast was cooked. "Minori"

Kakashi shook his head and looked down at the little girl. "What did he do?" he asked her and she sniffed. "Common you can tell Grandpa"

"He… sniff… yelled at me" she cried.

"Only because she yelled at me first" Sasuke growled.

"Did not" she shouted.

"Sasuke apologize" Kakashi said and Minori looked up at him.

"Hn" he smirked and walked back to the room.

"She's only four" Kakashi called but he kept on walking and closed the door to the bathroom, he splashed some water and his face and sighed. He wasn't ready to raise a kid on his own. Sasuke took a quick shower till Kakashi knocked on his door. "We're leaving for a mission in an hour"

"Hn" he muttered getting out and drying off. Were they stupid enough to let him leave the village? Apparently they were.

"Oh and pack for Minori too" he said and left. He took a deep breath and let it out. This was why she wanted to leave her in his care.

He dressed in a dark blue t-shirt with the Uchiha crest on his back. He also wore white shorts like when he was younger. Sasuke stepped out of the bathroom to find Minori eating her breakfast while swinging here feet under the table and making her bounce up a bit.

"Good morning uncle Sasuke" she smiled. She was apparently over what had happened earlier. She was dressed like him but instead of shorts she was wearing a skirt and her hair was tied up in a ponytail. "Come eat"

"Hn" he said and walked over to the table. He wasn't able to resist the tempting smell of bacon and eggs, with a hint of pepper. He ate it quickly chewing on every bite. It had been years since he had eaten this way.

Minori giggled "Uncle Sasuke's hungry" she smiled and ate her share. "We're going to see a princess"

Sasuke looked up at her as if she were crazy. "A princess?" he asked.

"Yep" she said nodding "Grandpa Kakashi said so"

"Really?" he said.

"That's correct" Kakashi said from behind him. "Our mission is to escort her back to her village" he placed a paper bag on the table "Those are your kunai" he said to Sasuke and he nodded a bit confused. They were even giving him a weapon, which was a first. Aren't I being held prisoner or something like that?

"Pack up your things" Kakashi ordered and Sasuke nodded getting up from his seat.

At the north gate

"That baby is supposed to protect me?" asked and overly dressed girl with blond hair. "This is a rob"

"She is of the best" Kakashi said simply but sighed as she was tugging at the princess's dress.

"I like your dress" she smiled. "I wanna be a princess when I grow up"

"Sasuke" Kakashi said motioning him to grab Minori before the young princess said anything else.

"Now I could work with him" she said biting her lip as Sasuke walked up. "What's your name handsome?"

"Sasuke" he said bowing his head. "I will be at your order Miss…"

"Ayame" she smiled at him but he didn't say anything else. Everything was back to normal, even his fan girls. "Well let's go then"
