"Ten years ? I've been asleep for 10 years ? My god I'm 25 now" kakashi was failing to wrap her head around the fact that she has slept through two fifth of her life

"I'm afraid so kakashi girl the medics never stopped trying to bring you round " Hiruzen says with a sympathetic look on his face.

"the head of the hospital thinks whatever type of chakra exhaustion you had put you in a type of stasis were you have barely aged ."

" the same cant be said about me "

Sarutobi and kakashi both turned to the doorway seeing a mid twenty brunette with purple rectangles on her beautiful face smiling softly.

"Its good to see you kaka-chan how I've longed to speak to you for the last 10 years"

"Rin ?" kakashi asks slowly looking at her time worn team mate

"ha-ha I'm afraid so my old friend" the now named Rin laughs a little warily.

" ah Rin-chan good to see you I was just telling kakashi about your assessment of her condition I wou"

"you're the hospital head medic ?" kakashi interrupted getting a nod from rin "this is gonna take some getting used to" kakashi shook her head already feeling tired because of the information she has and needs to process .

"don't worry kakashi girl Rin-chan will run through any and all changes you will need to know about and now I'm afraid I need to return to the office and combat the horror that your sensai left me in charge of PAPERWORK " Hiruzen finished with a gloomy face at the end "good day ladies oh and kakashi when you are situated and your affairs are in order come and have a chat about your future ne?"

With that sarutobi exited the hospital room not that kakashi registered it she was currently looking at Rin thinking

' when the nurse fetched the hokage hiruzen-sama arrived were is sensai ? Wait the jutsu I did to help sensai it was because of the kyubi fox, kyubi , sensai was going to seal it ? , seal it in a baby.,'

Her eye open wide in panic looking at the back of Rin who was fetching a chair to sit by the bed

"Where is Naruto" kakashi saw the well guarded flinch but failed to see the brief look of disgust and loathing on Rins face

"I wondered when you would ask that all though I didn't think it would be so soon I came straight here after dropping him off at the academy"

"YOU dropped him off the last conversation we had you didn't want anything to do with and I quote the demon brat "

Rin looked down as if in shame "come now kaka-chan I was young and shocked by minato sensei's plan plus I was trying to help kushina I "

"Were is kushina "

"She left the village for whirlpool she's the emissary for our alliance usually shows up every other month she has remarried and has two little girls one 7 and one 5" Rin says with a fond smile.

Kakashi looks down feeling depressed "so she abandoned naruto then ?"

Rin nodded" she did but not for the reason you think she staid for about 8 months the whole demon spawn thing was just a ploy to guilt minato into choosing another child when kushina woke the morning after the sealing she retrieved naruto and looked after him like any new mother would I however to my shame avoided them both like the plague after about 6 months the stress was beginning to get to kushina not only my absence and the cruelty of the village but also the resemblance of naruto to minato she told me every time she looked at her baby all she saw was minatos face at there last conversation she was slowly going mad. The final straw was when she had a genin team watch naruto whilst she did a little shopping and had a trip to the hot springs when she arrived home she found naruto in a pool of his own blood with the gennin team still stabbing there knifes into him, after killing the genin and sensai she rushed naruto to the hospital were I was on duty and begged me to heal him, as I was fixing him up it finally dawned on me what naruto was and I no longer distanced my self from sensei's son, sadly the next day kushina left leaving naruto as a ward of the village , the council were going to put him in an orphanage and liquefy al sensei's assets until sarutobi-sama proposed I be the namikazi ward so I now live in the namikazi clan house and take care of naruto "

Kakashi listened intently to the story going through a wide array of emotions

" sigh does he know about his mother ? Is he happy? Kakashi asked not looking up from her lap missing the glint in Rins eyes and the twitch of her lips

"Sadly he knows kushina is still alive the villagers can be very cruel iv'e told him to stay away from her if he sees her in the streets ive seen her stare at him on her days back, the same applies to his general happiness as well most of the people in konoha either ignore him spit on him or straight up beat him

I try to lighten the burden but naruto is very withdrawn and shy always expecting scorn its heart breaking really, it will hopefully get better when he becomes a genin if he ever passes the last exam that is"

Kakashi just sat there silent 'I will help you naruto-kun I'm here now '

"So what else has changed round here in the last 10 years" kakashi asks trying to lighten the mood.
