Fast Forward Uchiha Compound Rebuild
(A/N Cause I can't think of enough to make it more chapters than that)
Disclaimer – I don't own Naruto, Alice in Wonderland, Jigoku Shoujo, or the ideas taken from LJane Smith's Night World Series (can't wait for Strange Fate).
Ryuujin no Hikari is my character creation.
Please R&R – be kind this is my first fan fiction.
That night the 'new' team 7 met up for the second night at the Uchiha Compound.
Hikari had discarded her hat, pulling her hair up into a high pony-tail. Her bangs framing her face, and shiny new forehead protector showing through the part in her bangs.
"Hey Hikari" Naruto started "Iruka said you copied one of my moves to help you out in your exam"
Hikari laughed "Ya, hope you don't mind. It was one of the first NinJutsus that came to mind."
"What else did you have to do?" Sakura asked "It sounded like you had to do way more for your exam than we had to do."
"Yeah, he said it was because I didn't receive any formal training as a ninja" Hikari said "I showed him my control over shadow and light, my summoning abilities and I did another NinJutsu. I kind of modified Sasuke's Katon – Grande Fire Ball, and made my own technique I guess.."
"Oh" Sasuke raised and eyebrow at this.
"What's it called" Sakura asked
"Silver Dragon Flame no Jutsu" Hikari said "Oh, I also did my Phoenix Flame too – it's a healing or repairing magic the Sun Goddess taught me."
"So what's on the agenda tonight?" Naruto asked
"The monument is the next big thing" Hikari replied "Trees tomorrow, then the grass and garden."
"So really we will be done much earlier than you thought?" Sakura asked
"Pretty much" Hikari replied "I could probably do the vegetation in one night if I wanted, but I don't want to wear myself out like last night"
"Which reminds me" Sasuke said "Don't over do it like last night"
"he he" Hikari laughed nervously "right"
"I wish there was more we could do to help" Naruto said
"Too bad only the First could perform wood Jutsus" Sakura said "and Yamato"
"Meh" Hikari replied "At this point it's just good that we spend as much time together before you run off on us"
"You're right" Sakura said "I'm gonna miss you guys so much"
"No one said you had to go" Naruto muttered
"Anyways" Hikari interrupted before Sakura had a chance to retort "On to the reason we came here." The group walked towards the center of the compound and Hikari prepared to create the water monument. She knelt down placing both palms to the earth and closed her eyes. After a moment the earth opened up and a great granite square rose up two feet, with four broad rectangle pillars rising up out of the center, each one slightly taller then the last. The outward facing edges of the pillars were carved with the names of every Uchiha that died that fateful night. Each pillar also had a small amount of water spilling off the top, creating a pond at the base.
Hikari stood slightly fatigued, and Sasuke moved to support her, wrapping an arm around her waist. "You never cease to amaze do you?" Sasuke asked looking at her. Hikari only smiled back.
Naruto and Sakura walked over to the fountain "This is amazing, I can't wait to see more of what you can do on the battle field!" Naruto exclaimed.
"There are even koi in the pond" Sakura commented.
The next night only Hikari and Sasuke returned. Sakura had been called away by Tsunade and Naruto was out with Hinata, saying something about not wanting to be a 'third wheel'.
"Do you think we should wait to finish with the others tomorrow?" Hikari asked
"No" Sasuke replied "If we do this part tonight, then tomorrow we can plan something special for us to do"
"Like a picnic?" Hikari asked
"Here, with everyone's favorite foods" Sasuke smiled at Hikari "or perhaps we can throw a going away party for Sakura."
"Ooo good ideas" Hikari said, childishly clapping her hands.
"hn" Sasuke smirked and moved to hug Hikari from behind. Resting his chin on her head he asked "Once we are finished here we should try to get some more intel on Akatsuki for you."
"Two members are headed this way" Hikari said "but they won't be here for a while, it seems they have some other things to do first."
Sasuke frowned at this "How did you find that out?"
Turning in Sasuke's grip "Blaze and Fury told me the first night we came here to start remodeling. Sorry I didn't tell you, I actually kinda forgot till now."
"hn" Sasuke grunted "Did they say anything else? Like why they are coming, for that matter which members?"
"I don't know yet" Hikari said "Blaze said they were still gathering information and that I should stay here with you, where I'm safe."
Sasuke raised and eyebrow at this.
"Where you're safe?" Sasuke smirked "Like you need protection"
"Well no.." Hikari blushed at the notion.
Sasuke sighed "I should have found a way to get the information myself. Maybe if we hadn't come to Konoha first.."
"To be honest I far prefer it this way" Hikari interrupted "I have made so many good friends here."
Sasuke smiled at her "Well then.."
Hikari didn't let him finish, she wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him towards her and kissing him. Shocked, it took a moment for Sasuke to kiss her back; closing his eyes he wrapped his arms around her waist. As they stood there kissing each other beautiful sakura trees began to sprout up and mature into full trees with beautiful pink blossoms. Grass pushed through the soil, creating a beautiful green carpet at their feet. (A/N: and a lovely vegetable garden grew in behind the house, but that doesn't fit into my romantic scene). When they pulled apart Sasuke saw that everything was complete. "You can move in tomorrow" Hikari said.
Sasuke smiled and nodded at her "With you".
"If you insist" Hikari added playfully.
Standing on a roof top a short distance away Sakura and Naruto were watching the scene unfold. "And you thought it was a bad idea not to go" Sakura said
"Yeah" Naruto said with heart felt sentiment "it's good to have him back."
"It is" Sakura agreed "and this time he won't be running off in search of anything."
"He found most of it somewhere he least expected" Kakashi said
"Ahh!" Both Naruto and Sakura jumped "Don't do that!"
" Or should I say he just found someone who made him see what was in front of him all along" Kakashi said
"Yeah" Sakura said turning back towards the compound.
"Hn" Naruto agreed.
