Five Years Later

"Tou-san!" Shan yelled at me. I turned around and grabbed the kunai out of the air.

"Shan-musuko, these can really hurt someone," I grinned holding it back to him.

"I know. I was hoping to catch you by surprise," Shan said pocketing the kunai. Shan was now a Genin and I his squad leader. Mizu was also on the squad and along with Shikamaru's daughter, Michiko. They had been a Genin now for about six months. They had improved a lot and were going on there first mission out of the village soon. Hinata wasn't sure if I should have been the squad leader because I didn't have full range of motion for my shoulder and my stomach was still bothering me. I had told her it was the Hokage's orders. I couldn't go against them.

"Shan-musuko, do you really think you can catch me by surprise?"

"Well... no..." Shan looked at his shoes. For the Genin squad test, I used the bell test. It hadn't been much of a test because Michiko was just as smart as Shikamaru and she had caught on right away.

"Maybe someday Musuko," I said ruffling his hair. He was trying to grow his hair long like me. My hair was halfway down my back but Hinata and I wouldn't let his hair grow that long.

"Tou-san, why do you call me 'Musuko'?"

"Because I can."

"No really Tou-san, why?" Shan said taking my hand.

I sighed. "Because it means son and you are my son. Why do you call me 'Tou-san' and not just 'Dad'?"

Shan shrugged. "I don't know. It just seemed to fit with you Tou-san."

"Exactly, the same with me." We walked into the house where Hinata was making dinner. "Hi Hinata-chan." We kissed and looked at was in the pots.

"Hi Naruto-kun."

"Ramen?"

"Yes."

"Aw Mom, I don't like ramen!" Shan pouted at his chair.

"Your mom made dinner. Wash your hands and set the table." Shan got up and did what I had asked him to.

"Five bowls?" I asked hopeful.

"Maybe, if we have enough." Hinata smiled putting some ramen into the bowls.

Hinata set the bowls down at the table and Shan made a face. "Mom, you gave me too much."

"Shan, eat. There are other children who don't have it as well as you that would love this food," I took a bite and my mouth started watering while I chewed. "It's good. I really don't understand how you are my son Shan-musuko."

"Okay squad, that's enough for today. We have our first mission outside the village tomorrow. It's a simple mission. All we have to do is deliver a letter to someone important. Be at the front gate at eight o'clock sharp. If you aren't, I'm leaving you behind." I said sitting on top of the wooden training post.

"Sensei?" Mizu asked.

"Yes?"

"What happens if we get captured by the enemy if we are in war?" Mizu asked. He had no idea where I had gone during those years. His parents had told him that I had been on an extended mission and couldn't come home for eight years. The reason why I came home in a bad shape was because I had been hurt on a mission.

My smile vanished. Shan's head shot up to look at me. "It's simple Mizu." Michiko said standing how her father did.

"How is it simple?" I asked curious with her response.

"You don't give any information away. You don't tell them anything. You do as you're told but you don't give away any information about the village." Michiko yawned. "It sounds rather troublesome actually."

"Why do you believe that Michiko?" I was curious on why she thought that.

"Because that's what dad told me Naruto-sensei," She shrugged. She was exactly like her father. She wasn't anything like Ino, her mother, except her courage and anger at times.

"Has your dad ever been captured before?"

"No," Michiko blinked.

"Then he doesn't know what he is talking about," I smiled. That would be something Shikamaru would say.

"How do you know Sensei?" Mizu had a confused look on his face.

"Because I've known people very close to me that have been captured before." Shan had been quite through the whole conversation.

"Shan, you've been quite." Shan looked at me. "What's wrong?"

"We won't be captured will we?" He had worry sketched across his face.

I laughed. I looked down at Shan and he had a hurt look on his face. "I'm sorry. No we won't. You only have a chance of being captured when you are in war or when you are on a high rank mission."

"Sensei, have you ever been captured?" Mizu asked.

I paused. They would find out at some point. "Yes."

Mizu looked at me confused. "When?"

"Remember those years I was never there and I came back home almost dead?" Mizu nodded. "I was a prisoner of war. Ask your parents for the story."

"I thought you haven't told anyone Tou-san."

"I haven't."

"Then how do Uncle Neji and Aunt Tenten know?"

"Isamu had told them the part of when he was there." I noted the look on Shan's face.

I didn't want to talk about this anymore. So I stood up. "Alright. Get some sleep and go home. We won't be captured. Don't worry about it." Mizu and Michiko left and it was just Shan and I left at training field nine.

"Musuko, I don't want you to call me Tou-san when we are on missions. I'm not going to call you Musuko either."

"Why not Tou-san?"

"We don't want anyone to know we are related when we go on more dangerous missions. It will cause them to target the two of us so one of us goes mad." Shan nodded. "You don't have to worry about anything. Nothing like this will happen on the mission we are going on." Shan nodded again and we began talking about different weapons.

The mission had gone successfully and there were no problems. We were back in four days. One day there, two days in the town, and one day back. They had proved themselves worthy for more missions out of the village.

It was the day after and Hinata and I were lying in bed. I had her in my arms and she was stroking my hair. "Naruto-kun?"

"Yeah?"

"Will you ever tell me what happened?" I heard hope in her voice.

I waited for a couple minutes. I would have to teller her at some point. I shouldn't be keeping her in the dark about this. "Yes."

"Thank you Naruto-kun."

"Do you want to hear it now?"

Hinata looked at me. "If you want don't mind telling me."

"I've kept you in the dark long enough. It's time for you to hear it. You are the first person to know what really happened. I haven't even told Isamu the whole story." I kissed her head and she rubbed my stomach. I still had not feeling around my stomach. "It's a long story. Its eight years of information. Do you want to hear all of it tonight?"

"If you don't mind." Hinata kissed my nose and I smiled.

"Alright it all started when Kiba and I were fighting two Sound ninja's. They were really annoying..."

That was the first time I had told the whole story. She is the only one who knows what really happened. The Hokage doesn't even know what happened. She knows everything and feels my pain. It sure wasn't a fairy tale. It wasn't pretty. It's wasn't fun. It was hell on earth. I wish I will never go through that again and I hope that none of you will either. This is my story. I hope you enjoyed my story and remember it when you are taken by the enemy. Don't forget my story. Remember it well. That was the truth. Every detail. It was nothing but the truth.
