Possibilities

"I love you Ikari!!" Sakura screamed out so randomly and tackled the Uchiha from under the covers. Sakura looked slightly sweaty and extremely cute. Ikari blushed deep red and held Sakura tightly. Sakura pulled away slightly and stared deep into the Uchiha's eyes smiling so bright. Ikari looked away from her eyes calming down a bit.

"Sakura whats gotten into you? I thought you loved Sasuke-kun." Sakura shook her head and pushed Ikari to his back rubbing against the Uchiha tightly. Ikari blushed again holding Sakura gently.

"No one told you about your brother Ikari-kun, Sasuke-kun…Left Konoha to Orochimaru. We did everything we could to stop him. Sasuke beat Naruto and went to Orochimaru." Sakura's words hit Ikari on a massive level. Ikari formed tears in his Black eyes and embraced Sakura tightly, now crying on Sakura's shoulder. Sakura held Ikari tightly slowly rubbing the Uchiha's back. Ikari pushed away from Sakura and stood up quickly looking angry now.

"How long ago was this Sakura-chan" Ikari looked at the slightly sobbing Sakura. Sakura jumped up hugging Ikari tightly.

"It was about 2 ½ years ago my beloved Uchiha" Sakura rubbed her face against Ikari's happily. Ikari held Sakura so tightly and lifted the pink haired girl's head to a kiss. Sakura pulled into the kiss tightly and pulled away blushing at the sweet Ikari in front of her. Sakura layed back onto the couch and closed her eyes smiling so brightly. Ikari turned leaving a small box on the night stand and exited Sakura's house quietly. Sakura opened the box slowly and cried when she saw what the Uchiha had left her. It was a beautiful completely bright pink ring, with an even brighter pink stone set as a heart in the middle of the ring. Sakura put it on immediately, it was a perfect fit, as Sakura cried even more falling on the couch happily day dreaming about her Uchiha.

I hope she likes that ring, and finds that note I left for her in the box. I'm jealous of her Ikari-kun! Jealous? You are my inner conscious and half my power source Reich. But you don't give me any gifts!! I would if I could and you know that. Oh really? Proove it then. Fine, I love you Reicheru. Happy now. I sure am Ikari-kun.

Ikari walked through the streets heading for Tsunade's office. A new mission had arrived for the ANBU squad Ikari had to lead. Everyone waved at the Uchiha as Ikari walked by. Ikari smiled and waved. Ikari was finally getting recognition again. Ikari came upon the Hokage office and knocked slowly on Tsunade-Sama's door

"COME IN!!" Yelled the annoyed Tsunade. Ikari slowly opened the door and found that Jiraiya, Kakashi, and Sai were already there in the office. All of the other Nin nodded at Ikari and returned to the conversation at hand. Ikari took a seat by the door and waited patiently.



"We need our best to do this mission Kakashi!" yelled Tsunade at Kakashi. "But we don't need All of our best going Hokage-sama." Announced Sai back at Tsunade. Tsunade got red in the face and admitted defeat. Sai turned around and glared at Ikari and then Smiled.

"Is this the small dick you were telling me about Tsunade?" Ikari appeared right in front of Sai holding a Kunai to Sai's neck. Sai just stared emotionless. The tension grew in the room, until Tsunade punched Sai in the back of the Head.

"That small dick just happens to be your Squad leader Sai!" Sai's eyes widened as Ikari smirked putting the Kunai away slowly. Kakashi and Jiraiya laughed at Sai, seeing the Shinobi's face get beat red. Sai bowed and walked out of the room quickly. Kakashi sat down as did Jiraiya. Tsunade looked at Ikari smiling.

"You know Ikari, you are in fact Konoha's strongest Shinobi. We have received word that the Akatsuki has taken Gaara from the Sand Village. You and Kakashi will lead team 7. Gai will lead his team along with you to retrieve the Kazekage. Understand?

"Hai, Tsunade-sama" Kakashi and Ikari disappeared into their homes respectively grabbing what each had Needed. Kakashi gathered both teams as Ikari waited patiently at the gates of Konoha. The team appeared into sight and was running towards the gates.

"WOW!! We get Ikari-sama!" Yelled a surprised Naruto running ahead of the group nearly tackling Ikari. Sakura and Neji scowled Naruto over the clumsiness he had just displayed towards a near S-Rank Shinobi. When the team had gathered Ikari nodded at Gai and Kakashi as Kakashi spoke up.

"This is a highly ranked mission; we must retrieve Gaara from Akatsuki hands. Team work is a must, now let's move out. The Nin's nodded and followed the three leaders quickly. The squad reached a fork and decided to split up. Team Gai going right, and Team Kakashi going left. Sometime after Team came across an Akatsuki member looking oddly like a fish.

"Gai, don't you remember me?"asked the fish looking man. Gai looked at the S-rank Missing Nin and shook his head. "Infact I don't." The fish man's face turned red as Neji, Ten-ten, And Rock Lee were trapped in a water cell technique.

"Damn it!" Neji Yelled out. The three Nin began to pound on the water walls trying to release themselves from it. Gai turned and saw the fish man turned the desert area into a water area with another water Justu. Gai jumped to a rock to avoid the crushing water and looked at the fish man.
Kakashi and Ikari's Team.

The team ran forward coming out of the forest to be confronted by...
