--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kaede lead them all to her house. When they all were inside everyone all formed a circle having their complete attention on Kaede.
"Kaede, you old hag. You know something now why don't you tell us." Inuyasha stated.
Sasuke turned to Naruto and smirked. Clearly seeing how Inuyasha acted just like Naruto. When it came to treating old woman with "respect". Naruto could feel Sasuke's arrogant smirk and in return Naruto glared at Sasuke.
'The Dobe probably has no idea why I smirked at him.'
"Inuyasha, patience is key."
Everyone looked a Kaede as she broke the silence.
"I don't get it." Naruto said
Kaede just smiled. "The spell the dragon demon casted on the three little girls depends on patience."
"I still don't get what you mean Kaede." Miroku added.
"Well the spell will have to disintegrate bit by bit. As time passes they will start to get older. The problem is, you never know when that will happen. It could take days, months, even years before they reach their original age."
"Just great. That is all we need. To wait on theses girls to grow up." Sasuke murmured under his breath. Hoping no one would hear him. Unfortunately Sakura heard.
'I don't get it. Why are they talking about a dragon….and……us turning into…our original age?'
Sakura clearly was confused. And at this rate with the older men not asking what she was hoping they would ask, she was getting nowhere.
'Should we ask out own questions?'
'What would we ask? "Yeah I was wondering if you knew how we all got here?'
Sakura's eyes went wide and a small little gasp escaped her lips. Causing everyone to look at her.
'EXACTLY!'
'OH SEE! Told you I as good!' Inner-Sakura now was jumping up and down like a mad woman.
'What could Saku-Chan be thinking?'
'Sakura-Chan? OH NO! Sango-Chan! We need to snap Sakura-Chan out of inner-Sakuraness!'
Kagome looked to Sango who saw that Kagome was thinking and they both got up from their sitting position.
"Ready Kagome-Chan?"
"Yeah Sango-Chan!"
The boys and Kaede watched with intensity at what these girls would do to Sakura.
Kagome and Sango walked over to Sakura. Surrounding her, forming a triangle. Kagome on Sakura's left and having Sango as the point.
"Saku-Chan……You there?" Instead of getting an answer all Sango got was silence. Kagome scooted close to Sakura and waved her hand in front of Sakura's face.
"OH NO! Sango-Chan! She is gone!"
"No duh Kagome-Chan! Inner Sakura-Chan must be talking to her."
Kagome nodded in agreement. "I think your right."
Meanwhile the guys and Kaede exchanged looks and questions while the two girls tried to get Sakura back to reality.
"What is Sango and Kagome talking about when they say "Inner Sakura". Kaede asked.
Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other.
"(sigh) It is another side of Sakura basically."
"Yeah and she is like Sakura-Chan's alter ego."
"Oh."
They heard a gasp (again) and looked over to the girls to see Sakura-s eyes as wide as saucers. Naruto and Sasuke watched Sakura carefully as she got up and headed to Kaede.
Kaede sat there with a smile, trying to make the very shy girl not feel treated or timid around her.
"Um……..K-Kaede-S-San……h-h-how did K-Kagome-Chan and S-Sango-Chan and m-me e-e-end u-u-up h-h-here?"
Kaede's smile went into a frown and then went into a shocked look. 'Well this little one is smart…..yet so quiet and scared….no wonder why she has a alter ego like Sasuke and Naruto said…that explains much.'
"Well child. I was going to explain that. But Inuyasha called me a not so nice name and so I made him wait." Kaede said as she glanced over to Inuyasha.
"O-o-oh." Was all Sakura could manage to say since embarrassment started to take over Sakura. Having her face heat up to a very pink blush.
"But seeing as you asked nicely, I will tell you……" Kaede turned to the four young men in front of her. "Boys….I need one of you to take these girls outside….they are not fit to hear what I am about to tell you."
Naruto, Miroku, Sasuke, and Inuyasha looked at each other, then at Kaede, and then at the girls. Why would Kaede what the girls out of hearing range? Who was going to give up this information time to watch them?
"Hey old hag…who is going to watch the girls?"
"I will have one of the villagers baby-sit them for the time we are talking about this."
Kaede got up and turned to the three little girls "children will you come with me?" Seeing them nod she grabbed their hands and walked them over to a nice young woman who ran a daycare. Well a thing like a day-care. After she dropped them off she walked back to her house.
"Kaede…why did you have to get rid of the girls? Sakura-Chan asked a question and I think she wanted to now the answer to it." Naruto said.
'Now we really can not keep a close eye on her…GERR.'
'Will you over yourself for at least a minute?! Geez it is like you have separation anxiety or something.'
"Naruto….that little girl with the pink hair…..Sakura….is slowly trying to figure out and succeeding what is wrong with them. If I let her stay here then she would figure it out in the matter of minutes. Your teammate and friend is a very sharp one even for a young age."
"Still…Kaede…..answer what exactly is wrong with the girls….they do not seem to remember and yet they think that they are best friends when they only have meet each other only a few days ago."
Naruto and Miroku nodded at Sasuke's realization. Inuyasha was sitting there just waiting till Kaede told them what was going on…then he would speak.
"Inuyasha, Miroku, Naruto, and Sasuke…..I have heard of these types of demons from my sister…."
"Whose your sister???!!!" Naruto asked
Kaede's eyes went wide and Miroku looked over at Inuyasha. Inuyasha did not show any emotion towards his statement. But when he answered Naruto it portrayed a lot of hidden hurt, anger, and longing. "Naruto, her name is Kikyou and she is a priestess like Miroku, but she is evil. It is a long story."
Naruto just looked at Inuyasha and nodded. He would ask Sasuke what he meant by that. Right now he wanted to know what they had to do, to fix their issue.
"Oh ok."
"Anyway…like I said….these types of demons only use their power if they are threatened or if they are defeated."
"Way to have a losing attitude."
"You are right Miroku….But that does not matter to them….This dragon demon placed this spell on the girls hoping to stop them from winning against it."
"Or someone told it to." Sasuke said
"Could be the case….but anyway….the demon erased their memory with other memories…so all their memories are fake. Very sad I know but when the dragon erased their memory it also made them five year olds to make sure that the spell could not be broken."
"So how do we fix this?" Inuyasha asked
"I think you all should visit….Konaha."
Naruto gasped and Sasuke's eyes went wide…some….
"But we do not know how to get back! The old hag sent us threw the portal and I did not pay attention to the action. Neither did Teme."
Sasuke growled at Naruto put turned his attention to Kaede. "But you know the way home do you not?"
Kaede smiled. "Well yes I do…how else would I get you back home in the first place?"
"So exactly what do we have to do NOW?" asked Miroku
Get the girls and come in my backyard when you are ready." With that Kaede got up and walked outside, which was still raining out.
The boys got the little girls and ran at top speed to get back to Kaede's house. Once in the backyard they placed the girls on the ground.
"Kagome-Chan what do you think is going on?"
"I do not know Sango-Chan…..Sakura-Chan….do you know?"
Sakura looked between everyone and saw as Kaede got a few strange plants lined up and had them wrap around two trees that made an arch way.
'Only one thing could be used for that…'
'They as sending us somewhere.'
"You are sending us somewhere aren't you?" Sakura asked grapping the attention of everyone, yet again.
"Well Kaede…you were right…..Sakura would of figured it out if she stayed."
"Told you Miroku. And to answer you question child. Yes we are. Do not worry though these nice gentlemen are going to come with you."
"I would not call them gentlemen." Sango added. Getting a laugh from Kagome and Sakura.
"Ok I am all done. Now each of you have to hold something. And the person who is not holding a girl you will carry the supplies that will help you on your travels."
They all nodded and Inuyasha picked up Kagome, Sano was picked up by Miroku, and Sakura….well lets just say they had a hard time trying to figure out who was going to hold her. In the end though Inuyasha held Sakura and Kagome went with Naruto. Leaving Sasuke with the supplies since no one trusted Naruto with it.
"Now what old hag?"
"Jump into the gap made by the trees when I tell you to."
With that Kaede got into a meditation sitting position and started to chanted a few ancient words until the gap in between the two trees started to glow.
"GO!"
Even though Kaede yelling at them startled them. They all jumped into the portal.
Once inside the portal they all felt so weird. It was like their bodies was made of liquorish and everything was spinning. If they did not watch out they would of dropped the girls. The girls on the other hand were laughing and moving around in the guys arms. They thought that the liquorish feeling was fun and they wanted to play with the feeling. Thankfully in a few minutes they all landed on green grass.
"Did it work?"
"I think it did because I do not recognize where we are." Said Miroku
"Dobe. How can you not know where we are? We are at the park."
"Shut it TEME!"
"Make me dobe!"
"Ok bring it!"
Inuyasha was having enough trouble with recovering with their world skipping that Naruto and Sasuke's aguing added to his pounding headache.
"Will you both SHUT THE FUCK UP ALREADY!!"
Naruto and Sasuke looked over the see a steaming Inuyasha who let go of Sakura and she ran over to her friends.
"Saku-Chan is this where you live?!"
"Yeah. Nothing special."
"Sakura-Chan it is so pretty here!"
"Ok well what should we do now?" Miroku asked
"Well why don't we….."
Naruto was interrupted by a noise in the bush. He turned over to the crackling bush and threw a kunai at it.
"Naruto….what have I told you about throwing dangerous things at your old Sensei."
Naruto's face went so pale it looked like he saw a ghost.
"K-K-Kakashi-Sensei!"
Kakashi jumped down from the tree branch he was standing on and landed right next to Naruto.
"Oh you are not happy to see me? I am sure that Sakura is."
"Kakashi that is why we are back so early." Sasuke said
Miroku and Inuyasha just stood there watching their friends talk back to some strange man they have never seen before.
"Why what happened so Sakura?" Kakashi asked looking around only to see a weird looking guy and some dude who looked like a cat. "Hey Naruto and Sasuke…who are they?"
Naruto and Sasuke turned around to Miroku and Inuyasha and walked over to them. The girls are still talking behind them all.
"Kakashi-Sensei the one that has the strange priest outfit is Miroku and the one that looks like a cat is called Inuyasha. They are from the other world that the old hag pushed us in."
Miroku and Inuyasha just nodded.
"Oh….umm…you know you really shouldn't of brought them here."
"Kakashi-San let us explain."
Kakashi looked over to Miroku and smiled. "Please no formalities. Just Kakashi will do."
"Kakashi we have three little girls that should be not this age." Inuyasha said. Being very vague. He was heaving Kaede's words when she said that Sakura was on the verge to finding out what is up.
Kakashi looked at Inuyasha and raised a eyebrow. "What do you mean?"
Before any of the guys could answer Kagome screamed.
"AHHHHH!!!"
This got Kakashi's attention and he looked behind Naruto, Miroku, Inuyasha, and Sasuke to see a girl with black hair screaming like she was being killed all because of a…slug?
Kakashi examined the scene and saw another girl with black hair and also had the strange attire on. Then he saw that his former student Sakura was also there as well.
"What happened here Naruto, Inuyasha, Sasuke, and Miroku?" Kakashi asked
"That is what we have been trying to tell you!" Naruto said
"Well before we get any farther with this…shouldn't we take you all back to a house. But where?"
Kakashi looked at Sasuke as if insisting on him to say something.
"Why my house."
And much to Kakashi's prediction he did say something.
"Because your house is biggest and has a yard where the girls can play."
Before Sasuke could answer he was interrupted by another scream.
"AHHHH!!! Saku-Chan there are two of them! Get them off me!!"
Sakura was sitting there laughing at her best friends. "It is not like the are going to bite."
"But they are slimy!"
"And they are not regular slugs!"
Sakura looked at the slug to see that Sango was right. Instead of a normal greenish brown slug with a shell. This slug had a blue strip in the back and did not acquire a shell at all.
Kakashi, Sasuke, Naruto looked over to see two slugs on the girls.
'With our luck they could be from Tsunad-Sama and they will start to talk to them.' Sasuke said.
Oh boy was he right. "do not worry child I will not hurt you. Even ask Sakura-Sama."
Kagome and Sango froze. "Saku-Chan/ Sakura-Chan….YOU KNOW A SLUG……..THAT CAN TALK?!"
The slugs got off Kagome and Sango and slugged their way over to Sakura. Sakura on the other hand was confused.
"No….I don't."
The slugs stopped dead in their tracks. She denied that she knew them and that she had any relation with them.
"you do not remember us Sakura-Sama?"
Before Sakura could say no Kakashi picked up the two slugs. 'Well if we tell Tsunad she will help us with this mess.'
"Tell the Hokage that we need her assistance right now and it is urgent. If she says that she can not come tell her it is about Sakura. That should get her to move. Tell her to meat us at the Uchiha Mansion."
"Hai." And with that the slugs were gone with a poof.
"So off to the Uchiha mansion….eh Sasuke?"
Sasuke growled at his old Sensei. 'Oh how I will kick your ass later Kakashi. But right know it is going to have to wait.'
"Fine everyone follow me. We will take the back way so we do not draw attention to the villagers OR any NINJA."
With that they were off into the forest with the three girls running as hard as they could trying to keep up with the full grown men.
Kakashi could see that they were falling behind so he summoned his bigger version of Pakkun.
"What do you want Kakashi?"
"Go and get those three little girls….one of them is Sakura….give them a ride on your back."
"Sure why not… I am a stool after all."
Kakashi rolled his eyes at Pakkun's sarcasm but none the less Pakkun got the girls and they gladly went on his back. Soon the girls were up with them laughing and putting their hands up like they were on a roller coaster.
'Lets hope we can fix this problem….to save all three of you.'
----The Uchiha Mansion--------
They arrived there and followed Sasuke as he lead them through the abandon living streets of the Uchiha's. Soon they got to the Uchiha's garden and all five of them sat on the soft green grass. Pakkun went with the girls to keep them busy so they did not interrupt their conversation.
"So who are the other two girls?"
"The one that is loud and obnoxious with the strange cloths is Sango. The other one with the school cloths is Kagome." Miroku said
"And how did all you meat each other?" Kakashi asked again
"Well Kagome left because I said her food sucks and then al of a sudden she comes back with those two and Sakura next to her. Sakura was a pain in the ass to. I never knew she would be quiet." Inuyasha said
"Ok? How did you meat Kagome and company Naruto?"
"Sakura was stupid. She did not hide or anything. We came out of the bush and the Dobe and I attacked Kagome. Sakura beat Dobe over here and so we walked her back to make up for it."
"HEY! SAKURA-CHAN BEAT YOU UP TO!"
Kakashi shook his head at Naruto and Sasuke's brotherly behavior. Miroku and Inuyasha did the same exact thing.
"Oh how I wish Sakura was normal…She would keep them in line." Miroku said.
"Why were they like this on the mission?"
"Yeah. They are as annoying as hell, yet entertaining at the same time. Sakura would come up to them and beat the shit out of the,."
"Like Kagome does with her "sit" command." Miroku added
"What is the sit command?"
Poor Inuyasha because while the girls were playing with Pakkun Kagome said sit and Inuyasha went face first into the ground.
"Oh that is it then."
"Yeah." Inuyasha said.
"NARUTO UZUMAKI AND SASUKE UCHIHA! WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY STUDENT!!!"
Everyone, including the girls and Pakkun, turned around to see a flaming Hokage getting ready to punch anything. And she did. She punched the tree making it crash onto the ground.
"I can see where Sakura got her strength from." Miroku whispered to Inuyasha.
Sasuke and Naruto turned around to see Tsunad at their necks. "eh he he….Hey there Tsunad-baachan." Naruto said while screeching his neck. "Hello Tsunad-Sama." Sasuke said
Tsunad just glared at each of them. Then she looke over to see Kakashi and two strange people. "Who are they?"
Kakashi walked over to the Hokage and Miroku and Inuyasha followed. "Tsunad-Sama they are from the other world."
Tsunad's eyes went big and she ran up to the two new people. "So you are from the feud era? How is Kaede?"
Miroku and Inuyasha were shocked that this woman knew Kaede.
"She is a old as ever." Inuyasha said
Tsunad ignored his remark and sat down with everyone. "So how did you get here….and why are you here?"
Inuyasha, Naruto, Miroku, and Sasuke sighed. This would be the hundredth time that day.
"We are here because of….them…" Miroku said "And my name is Miroku."
Inuyasha just stared at her. "Inuyasha."
Tsunad nodded her head. While studying them. 'So Miroku is the priest with the hole in his hand. Inuyasha is the half demon……how did Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke meet up with them? Why? And who do they mean by they?'
Sasuke saw that Tsunad was thinking and decided to tell Kakashi to tell Pakkun to bring over the three girls. Kakashi saw Sasuke star at him and signaled for Pakkun to come over with the girls.
"So who do you mean by they?" Tsunad finally asked.
Again before anyone could answer they all heard three girls cheering as they rode on Pakkun's back over to the Hokage and company.
"That was the best ride ever!"
"Yeah it was! What do you think Saku-Chan?"
"Y-Yeah…i-i-it w-w-was n-n-nice."
"Why are you stuttering Sakura-Chan? You know everyone here…"
"Not everyone Kagome-Chan." Sango said as she pointed to the new woman with blonde hair and golden brown eyes.
Tsunad looked at the three girls with large eyes. "S-S-Sakura?!"
The said girl looked up only to meat the eyes of the woman. "Y-y-y-es?" she asked timidly
