READ A/N: VERY IMPORTANT!!!!

A/N: All right listen up ppls. Considering the fact that some of you haven't quiet caught up with the rest of the class in this story I'm going to have to spell things out and also put the concept in the story. The Sakura and Sasuke that have just recently remembered the life that they once lead are the reincarnations of the ones in the past. Between that time and now it has been roughly 1500 years, that's a millennium and a half ppls. So to the next part 'the kid', whom I've called Sai because I like that name, you have to understand Sai has been dead for a very very very long time.

Chaos Sparda, a friend of mine, suggested that you ppls hadn't caught onto the fact that there has been a huge time skip. I didn't want Itachi to be the person who resurrects the clan because the simple fact as I see it he took so much of his precious time to slaughter all those family members to want to take care of a kid anyway. Chaos also suggested that a few Uchiha's could have been out on a mission or something. I decided that it wouldn't have the same effect as Sasuke and Sakura having a son hence granting a piece of Sasuke's mission in life. I'm not trying to make it sound like ya'll are stupid or anything but I'm trying to explain things. KT you're complaint was the loudest. I would have discussed it with you before hand but seeing as how you don't leave an email address or your penname I couldn't discuss it with you.

So don't get your shorts in a twist here peoples. Roughly Sasuke and Sakura are 17 going on 18 sure they could be doing that stuff but they haven't remembered long and Sakura is resistant to jumping into that kind of relationship with the battle lingering so close. There aren't any false hopes here. Sakura knows very well that they could die again, so why risk an innocent life. Okay dealing with Itachi on this matter will be discussed in the chapter and hopefully will catch ya'll up. And yes I do say ya'll.

---- ----- -- --- --- ---

Sakura slowly came to in a dark room. The door was slightly ajar and a dim light filtered through. Her head was throbbing. Rubbing her temple she tried to get her bearings. She didn't recognize the room around her. She was about to move when she heard shouting from the other side of the door.

"I specifically told you not to tell her Alexial!"

She recognized that voice to be Itachi's. The thoughts running through her head consisted of why would Itachi be fighting with Alexial.

"Don't you think for once, bastard, she's going to wonder how the Uchiha clan survived after the clan's massacre and Sasuke's death. You didn't want freaking children, and I would have never trusted a child in your care to begin with."

"They could have gone on not knowing anything."

"Listen here, bastard. I don't have to obey you anymore, and I'm going to tell you what I think!"

"Alexial calm down, un," she heard Deidara say. "You're starting to change."

"Stay out of this," she snarled. "You're the reason Sai suffered so damned much."

"What gives you the right to tell her that her son lived after she obviously thought he was dead? You've just complicated matters Alexial."

"You took her son from her Itachi."

"She wasn't worth enough to carry the Uchiha line."

"You sadistic bastard and she is now?"

"Yes."

A threatening snarl rang through the house and the sound of shifting cloth was her only clue that someone had moved. There were grunts and flesh hitting flesh. She figured Alexial was struggling against whoever held her. Sakura wanted to know what the hell was going on. Getting up letting the blankets slide off her body she moved carefully forward.

"Her worthiness is for Sasuke to decide not you. He loved her…"

"Love is a foolish emotion. I'd think a creature like you would know better than to believe in love."

"I'm not human but my race could love Itachi. My race loved more deeply than humans ever could and stop switching the subject. For your information I've stayed loyal to Deidara for over a millennium and a half."

"They should have stayed in the dark about that little fact until after the battle."

As Sakura was about to open the door a hand on her shoulder stopped her. The instinct to scream became known and a hand clamped down over her mouth. They dragged her backwards. The person's free arm wrapped around her waist.

"It's all right Sakura it's just me," Sasuke's deep voice washed over her neck. "They've been at this ever since she brought you here."

"Sasuke," Sakura began.

"It's all right Sakura."

She could tell his voice was a bit strained as if he didn't know exactly what to say about what they had discovered.

"I was going…"

"We were in the middle of a battle and then we died we didn't get to talk."

Sakura had to know something from him before Itachi's words ate at her already fragile heart.

"Was I worthy to you then and now?"

"Sakura…"

He turned her around to touch her face. His fingers gently ran down her cheek. His eyes spoke in volumes about what he wanted to say but didn't know how to. That was the one thing that carried over, his inability to tell those he cared about that he did care. The door opened and the two jerked back from each other a blush staining their cheeks. Alexial shut the door behind her and leaned against it. Her eyes were down casted. Something dark stood out on her pale cheek. She looked up and her eyes were amethyst.

"I'm sorry that you had to hear that you two."

She ran her fingers through her long hair. Sakura noticed the cut on her cheek and rose to help. As if reading her mind Alexial smiled weakly.

"Don't worry about it Sakura it's already healed."

Sakura sat down and Sasuke beside her on the futon. Alexial gracefully as a cat sat down in front of them. Her hand flexed carefully on her knee.

"Tell us about our son," Sakura started.

"To tell this story I'd have to start after the child was born. Well actually I'd have to start with telling you what I am."

"What you are?" Sakura asked in confusion.

"You know the demons that were sealed in your friends and foes alike?"

The looked at each other and nodded. Alexial sighed softly.

"I'm kind of like Kyuubi and Shukaku but not trapped within a human. I am a full blood snow tiger youkai and for some years was taken as a ninja pet by Sai Uchiha."

"Sai?" Sasuke asked clearly confused.

"Sai was our son's name," Sakura added. "The fifth member of our team after you left his name was Sai, and he didn't exactly like he me. However, he did everything he could to make sure I was safe just like Naruto. I was heavily pregnant at the time and some ninjas from somewhere cornered us. He died, so to that honor I named our son after him."

Sasuke only nodded before turning his gaze back to the snow tiger youkai. Alexial looked over her shoulder as the door opened and a familiar blonde headed man stood there. He came in and shut the door behind him and sat beside Alexial.

"This story takes place a millennium and a half ago…"

Alexial's POV

She ran through the snow in her beast form trying with all her might to reach Itachi before he did something stupid to the infant that was in his grasp. She had heard the shrill cry of the woman that had given birth to the baby. From the scent on her she was a lover of an Uchiha. Her mind registered that it must have been Sakura and therefore this kid was Sasuke's. Her paws didn't make a sound as she ran through the snow. Due to her snow upbringing running in it didn't hinder her movements. She had to get to the kid before Itachi decided to kill him. She had over heard Sakura calling the boy Sai. The Akatsuki base lay ahead. With swift leaps and bounds she was standing before the barrier. Every time she stood before this barrier she had to remind herself that he was gone and wasn't going to be there to welcome her home. The barrier allowed her entrance and she quickly dashed through. The sound of a baby crying made her eyes flash crimson. Before she realized what she was doing she had leapt for Itachi. Being the sadistic bastard that he was he held the crying infant up before her. Her body twisted fast enough so that her claws grazed the wall leaving five long gashes in the wood. She shifted to her humanoid form.

"Give me the child Itachi," she snarled.

"And if I don't?"

"I will tear you into shreds."

"Why are you so insistent on protecting this bastard child of my brothers?"

"A bastard Sai maybe but even they have a right to live and it isn't your choice to make whether or not he lives or dies. Now give me the kid."

Her eyes were still crimson and even though fully conscious of her actions she was still dangerous. Itachi held out the child to her. Alexial reached for the boy and knowing there would be a catch she prepared herself for anything, except for the Uchiha handing the boy carefully to her.

"Your in charge of the brat now and keep him quiet."

She rolled her eyes before looking down at the adorable bundle in her arms. At one point in her life she had wished for children but the one she wanted them with had died.

"You aren't to take him back to his mother just yet."

"Why?"

"She can do without him for awhile."

Alexial shook her head and moved towards her room. She sat down on the bed and cuddled the child closer. His smoke gray eyes slid shut slowly. He knew that she'd have to go out and get baby things for the little runt, but it gave her a small measure of joy at being able to take care of such an innocent. That routine was kept up for a week before Itachi decided to send the kid back to the Leaf.

When she got to the out skirts of the village she noticed a lot of black. The scent of death and sadness was a thick cloud around the village. Sai was strangely quiet in her arms. Seeing a familiar face in the crowd she moved forward. It was a blonde haired man with whiskers on his face.

"Excuse me sir why is the village in black?"

The blonde haired man looked at her in the eyes. There were tears in his eyes. He looked over his shoulder where two bodies were being carried in. Both bodies were a bloody mess. She didn't have trouble recognizing their scents underneath the death. Sai began to cry in her arms as she slowly made her way towards the two bodies but stopped when a hand rested on her arms.

"You're a Missing Snow ninja," the blonde started.

Alexial cursed her stupidity for not taking off the said headband. She nodded anyway.

"What are you doing in the Leaf?"

"I came to return this child to his parents but it appears I'm too late."

"This is Sakura's…"

The youkai nodded her head. The blonde reached for the boy but Alexial stepped back.

"I will return him to you with a few conditions added."

"What are they?" he demanded reaching for the child again.

She looked around cautiously to make sure that no one was listening, no one was looking their way so turning she looked at the blonde in the eyes.

"No one is to know that this child is Sasuke and Sakura's child."

"Then who will I tell people he belonged to?"

"Tell them that he is Itachi's son."

"And the other condition?"

"I can assume the guise of a white tiger, and I will stay with him through his life."

"Can I hold him?" Naruto asked softly.

Alexial nodded softly before handing the infant over to the blonde. Sai looked up at the blonde and grabbed on his fingers and cooed softly.

"He looks so much like Sasuke."

Naruto looked up as the Snow Nin assumed the form of a moon white tiger. A necklace dangled from her neck. The silver and crystal snowflake glittered.

"I will agree to your terms, umm…"

"Alexial."

"I'm Naruto."

The blonde haired man took the child to his home and raised him like his own despite the constant miss trust and hatred for the boy. Alexial stood beside him even as the villagers scorned him. Naruto eventually became Hokage after Tsunade retired and the villagers weren't so openly hostile towards Sai but there were other means of torment for the Uchiha. He however had Alexial to watch over him until his early death at twenty-one.

When it came time for the three man teams to be picked Sai was partnered up with Naruto's daughter, and Kakashi's son. Their sensei was Neji. Alexial didn't leave his side.

Normal POV

"I did what I could for Sai but in the end it was his wife that made all the difference. She and his best friend made all the difference. However he did die at twenty-one and left behind two children the second child he never knew about. Both were boys."

Sasuke looked at Sakura and thought about the past. His son must have went through the same thing that Naruto did. Sasuke was sure that he would have been very proud of his son form what Alexial was saying.

"What happened to Itachi?" Sasuke asked.

"Eventually using his Sharingan so much his eye sight failed and no medic would help him. So I think it was a Sound ninja blind sided him and killed him. Frankly I couldn't have cared less. My duty was to Sai not Itachi. I watched the Uchiha line grow and prosper until I reached the present time. I watched honor and loyalties fade and die and this new society rise. I waited with the Uchiha clan until you came into the world Sasuke and I set out to find Sakura. Now you're together again now what you do with that is up to you."

She smiled weakly. Closing her eyes she allowed a few tears to escape. He had failed Sai in her mind considering he died so young, but she watched over the Uchiha line until the present. She rose and Deidara followed.

"You two have school tomorrow so don't stay up to late, and I trust the both of you not to have sex."

Sakura nodded and moved to lay down as the pair left. Sasuke moved to lay down beside her. He wrapped his arms around her waist and brought her snug against his chest. Sakura's head was pillowed on Sasuke's shoulder and she soon found sleep. He soon joined her in the land of dreams.
