Chapter Ten

I woke up when I felt a surge of cold air hit my side. I looked to the left and saw nothing or more specifically no one there. I put my hand where a body indent still was and felt it was warm. I got up and shot my chakra out trying to sense if anyone was in the apartment. I sensed Kakashi was in the kitchen along with another person I wasn't familiar with. Both were conscious and not injured so I assume he was a friend. After all if I could sense him from here I'm sure Kakashi had to have too so the guy wasn't sneaking up on him. I knew they could sense me as well so there was no point in hiding. I wondered what our excuse should be for me being in his bedroom at 1 o'clock in the morning.

I walked out and saw Kakashi talking to a tall man in an ANBU mask. I didn't recognize the uniform so I didn't try to say hello instead I walked up next to Kakashi who was in his mask and had his headband on, although he had forgotten to put on a shirt. He has his priorities.

"What's going on", I asked as the two turned their attention to me. I gave Kakashi a questioning look but he shook his head I guess he didn't know either.

"You two have been summoned to the Hokage's office. You are both to report immediately", the ANBU informed them before disappearing in a puff of smoke. I waved away the smoke before turning to Kakashi.

"Why would she need to see us", I wondered aloud.

"Maybe it's about the 'mission'", he suggested.

"Why would she call us at one o'clock in the in the morning though. Normally she's shit faced by now not calling about something she could ask in the morning", I said shooting down his theory. "Maybe we're getting a mission", I spoke hopefully. We hadn't gone on a team mission in months. I really missed it.

"Well we're not going to know until we get there right", I hated it when he patronized me.

"Hmp", with that I walked out the door and took to the roofs. I heard him behind me and soon he caught up with me and we landed in front of the Hokage building.

"You know I'm beginning to get sick of following you", he joked. I stuck my tongue out at him like the responsible adult I was and walked up the stairs to Shisou's office.

"Oh good Kakashi, Sakura you're hear. As you might have guessed squad five has a mission", I didn't say anything but inwardly I did a fist pump. Finally I've missed being on a team. No amount of high paying solo missions is like getting to be with two perverts for months at a time risking your life every second until you get back.

You know what maybe I am crazy.

"Are you sure it's alright for Sakura to go in her...condition", Kakashi asked. I wanted to punch him in the face but someone interrupted me before I could.

"What condition? Oh cherry blossom don't tell me your pregnant. What about our future", Gemna announced dramatically as he walked into the room. Even though I knew he was joking as he had stopped trying to hit on me back when I was 18, Tsunade didn't.

"What 'future'. I swear to Kami if you knock up Sakura I'll send you to he'll where you belong", Tsunade threatened growling. I think shes been deprived of her sake again. Probably too lazy to go buy it herself.

"But what am I supposed to do about children", Gemna said putting a hand to his forehead as if he was in a bad soap opera.

"What the ones you have aren't good enough. You already have two", I reminded him although with the way he spoils them he definitely knows they exist.

"But Shizune said she doesnt want anymore. What am I supposed to do", he asked me getting on his knees as he seemed to pray to the heavens. I rolled my eyes in the past few months I forgot how overdramatic Gemna was when he was running on a few hours of sleep. I remembered seeing him a few weeks after Keiko, his first child, was born. He was so peppy I wanted to choke him but after he collapsed snoring in the middle of buying a jumbo pack of diapers I decided to cut him some slack.

"Trust me the village doesnt need any more mini you's running around", Tsunade scolded. Gemna stood up and smirked a little before walking to the Hokage's desk.

"What telling me you don't want any more grandkids", Gemna gasped as he put his hand on his heart like it would give any second. Now it was Tsunade's turn to smirk.

"Actually I already have another grandkid", Tsunade said smugly making Gemna furrow his brow in confusion before reality sunk in.

"Wait Sakura you actually are pregnant", and like usual Gemna was out of his freaking mind.

"No dumbass Hinata had her baby", he still looked confused, "Hinata really shy girl", he still didn't get it. "Used to be the Hyuga heiress until she gave the job to Neji", he still looked confused. "Naruto's wife", I definitely thought he'd at least know that but now he seemed even more confused. Kami having kids really put him out of the loop. Oh well I knew one description he would definitely remember.

"She's the blue haired nurse with the huge boobs who you used to demand you used to always request before Shizune found out and didn't talk to you for two days", with that he finally nodded his acknowledgement. Of course he doesn't know who Naruto was married to but he knew the woman who actually looked hot in the nurses uniform. Tch, men.

"Oh yeah I remember her, geez Naruto got that hottie", I'm not really sure if it was me or Tsunade that broke his nose but I do know that it was Shizune who slammed him into a wall.

"What did you say? I'm your wife and you're talking about other woman. Kami you're such a pig why did I marry you", Shizune slapped him but before she could blink he twirled her around and bent her over for a dip.

"Because I'm so desperately in live with you that you just had to say yes", Gemna murmured against her ear.

"Hmm that sounds about right", she leaned and kissed him and I looked away trying not to intrude on their private moment.

"Alright break it up or get the fuck out", Tsunade didn't really have a good tolerance for people making out in her office when she couldn't do it. And it was even worse now that Shizune only worked part time to take care of Keiko, and Naoki who had just tuned six months a few weeks ago. Tsunade loved her grandkids but she hated paperwork.

"Geez someone isn't getting any", Gemna muttered breaking away from his wife. Tsunade heard him and growled and I rolled my eyes at the two. Of course I understood where Tsunade was coming from since she was the mother and father of Shizune and Gemna was the type of guy you'd want to chase away from your family but he had changes since he started dating Shizune three years ago and his lack of hospital visits due to 'accidents' proved that Tsunade was softening up to him. That of course didn't mean she wouldn't kick his ass if need be.

"I would shut up or you'll be unable to get any ever again", she threatened and Gemna subtly tried to cover his privates as Tsuande glared at him. It wasn't the first time shed threatened his manhood and shed nearly castrated him after finding out he had proposed to Shizune. Of course she had been drunk but I think she would of done something similar sober too.

"Shizune", Tsunade yelled turning her attention to the small brunette. Shizune no longer cowered in fear when Tsunade yelled, childbirth and living with Gemna had toughened her up quite a bit, but she did have a deep respect for her and immediately turned away from her lover and bowed to Tsunade.

"Yes shisou"

"Why'd you come in here is something wrong", Tsunade asked not sounding concerned whatsoever.

"No I was just letting you know that she's on her way, her team had some difficulties with the client and shell back soon. She is fully ready to go on the mission", Shizune informed shisou all business like. When she was with her kids or flirting with Gemna it was easy to forget she was one of the most deadly kounichi in the business. But with her hard eyes and blank face she looked the ninja she was. And from the way Gemna's eyes were following her every movement he seemed to be appreciating it.

"Gemna would you stop undressing my apprentice with your eyes I don't really appreciate it", Tsuande commented as Shizune left the office. She turned a bright red but Gemna just put his hands behind his head and smirked like he had done nothing wrong and something about what I'd just witnessed in the past five minutes made me feel bubbly and happy. Everyone stared at me as I burst out laughing. I couldn't help it everything felt so normal, after the past few days it seemed like things were getting worse but little moments like these made me glad that Kakashi stopped me when he did. I shot a glance at the copy nin to see him smiling at me under his mask. Just the little upturn of his lips hidden by a piece of fabric was enough to make my heart beat faster. I knew he was probably going to want to talk about last night but a mission would derail him a little longer. I knew talking about it would only make him worry.

"So Sakura what condition was Kakashi talking about if you're not pregnant", Gemna asked looking at me. I shot a glance at Tsunade but she didn't seem to be any mood to help me out.

"Well I delivered Hinata's baby the other day and it just got me really tired", I said laughing weakly. Kakashi raised his eyebrows but Gemna just nodded thank Kami that baka had no clue whatsoever when it came to medical ninjutsu or he would have totally seen right through that.

"You know you shouldn't overwork yourself it isn't good for you", Gemna told me patting my shoulder before pulling a senbon out of his weapons pouch and sticking it in between his lips.

"So Tsunade what's the mission", he asked twirling the weapon with his tongue.

"Weren't you listening to your wife, your other teammate is on their way", Tsunade scolded him rolling her eyes. That got all of our attentions.

"What other teammate", Kakashi inquired crossing his arms and staring out the window as if he expected them to show themselves any second.

"Well because of your team's break we haven't had to find you a fourth teammate but now that you're going on a missions and an s-class one at that it is essential", she saw us about to protest so she continued. "Look I know you guys didn't want to replace Naruto but he retired from ANBU when Hinata got pregnant and now that the baby is he I doubt he'll join again, so you guys need a new teammate", she concluded. All three of us frowned. The idea of replacing Naruto didn't appeal to me but I knew she had a point. He had went back to jounin rank and I doubted he would try to get reinstated with Sasuke just being born. I looked to my two other boys and saw them thinking it over.

"Look guys we need another teammate and Naruto can't do it so we're just going to have to take the replacement. It's going to be fine", I appeased them. Gemna nodded and Kakashi just gave me a little eye crinkle before we turned our attention to a presence that had just heaved itself through the window.

"Hey team sorry I'm late, my client was a whiny bitch who needed us to hold his hand the whole way took forever", standing there smirking was the ever present in my life Anko Mitarashi.

"You're our teammate", I cried incredulously. Kakashi eyebrows raised and eyebrow and Gemna looked like he wanted to laugh. I realized I sounded rude but Anko's expression didn't really make me feel like apologizing. How someone sweaty and smelling like BO could smirk like they owned me baffled me. I glared at her and that seemed to make her smirk even more.

"Is it surprising that I'm worthy of being your teammate", she mocked. I grounded my teeth together to stop myself from cursing at her.

"Not at all Anko", I muttered past my teeth. She smiled at me in a way that reminded me of the animal her ex-sensei summoned. I never liked snakes, and that creepy grin on her face reminded me of why.

"So what's the mission", Gemna asked interrupting me and Anko's staring competition.

"There have been a lot of abductions in a village near where Orochimaru's hideout used to be", she said her eyes turning dark. I felt the breath rush out of me as the memories of my dream from the night before flooded through me. I felt a hand on my shoulder and saw Kakashi standing next to me. I gave him a small smile before I listened as Tsunade continued.

"They have no hints as to whose doing it or why. We sent a team out yesterday morning to find the people and protect the village but they sent a message a hour ago saying that a child was abducted. Whoever's doing this is no amateur if they made it past four ANBU. We're sending you as reinforcements whoever's doing this needs to be stopped and if they have something to do with Orochimaru you are the team with the most experience with him so your best suited for the job", she looked at everyone of us as it sunk in.

"Believe me if they and anything to do with that bastard their dead", Anko growled beside me. With Orochimaru I was mostly angry about what he had done with Sasuke but I had forgotten that he had done the same thing to Anko what he had done to Sasuke and then he had thrown her away. If anyone was going to get revenge it was her.

"She's right we will do whatever it takes Shisou", I told her solemnly before giving a small nod to Anko. She gave me a nod back but the smirk on her face told me we were by no ways friends.

Fine by me.

"When do we leave Tsunade", Kakashi asked with both his hands hovering over his weapons pouches. She gave us a small smile before pointing to the door

"Now"

Alright that's it, sorry it's so short it was just to help move things along for the next chapter. I should be updating more since the last day of school I tomorrow so expect more regular updates on this, Fourteen Days(ichiruki), and Itachi Taichou(Itasaku).
