Chapter 13: Truth
Sasuke went near the shack and buried Hinata's body. He put a stick so he knew where her body laid.
He went inside the shack and started to look for a big stone for Hinata's grave stone. He finally found one. After he found it he wrote down all the things that were on a grave stone. As he did he started to put all his anger to the grave stone and was crying too.
When he was done he put the grave stone in place of the stick. Then he left to go home.
As he went home all he did was look at the ground while he was walking home.
"Sasuke. May I talk to you for a bit," said a familiar voice.
It was Neji. Sasuke didn't want to talk to him but he was forced to by Lee.
They went inside Shikamaru's house and he was tied up in a chair. All of the guys were surrounding him.
"What do you want?" Sasuke said.
His voice was so dead and he didn't even care.
"We want a word with you Sasuke. It's about Elis and her well being," Garra said sitting on a chair to Sasuke's left.
"Hinata seemed prepared for this for some weird reason," Konkuro said leaning on a wall behind Sasuke.
"Just let me go home," Sasuke said without a care in the world.
"Well there was a letter for you and a will that you should read," Neji said in front of Sasuke with a box and a peace of paper in his hand.
Sasuke looked up and saw the box and the folded peace of paper. The strings that was holding him down to the chair had loosened but, Sasuke just sat there looking at what Neji had in his hand.
One by one everyone left the door and said goodbye to Sasuke for the night.
"I'll leave it hear. I don't want to force you to look at them. Don't do anything stupid. I know that Hinata would want you to do that," Neji said putting the items down on a desk and left.
"One more thing, Sasuke. If I were you I would do what ever it takes to make Elis happy. She needs it," Neji said stopping at the door.
Neji left Sasuke all alone in the room with only the candle on.
Sasuke looked at the items and decided to check them out. He opened the box and it was full of pictures of Elis and Hinata. Some pictures were with everyone. When he was done looking at the pictures he saw a book that was called The Blue haired Konachi and the Black haired Warrior of the Fan.
Sasuke put the book aside then opened up the letter. He read it through twice,
Dear love,
It has been along time since I have seen you. By the time you read this I will already be dead. I am sorry that I kept her from you. But how could I. You had already left the village and I couldn't find you. Besides I was too weak and vulnerable. Please forgive me. Right know she needs you, her father. I know that you have never had any experiences with a child but, I know you will do great. Please take good care of her. I know you can do it. Please tell her that I lover her and that I will always be by her side.
Love your Hinata.
He still didn't under stand. Then he felt another peace of paper in the back of her letter. He looked at it and it was Elis's birth certificate. It had his name on it. Then he became wide eye.
What? Elis's is my daughter? Sasuke said to himself.
Now the letter made sense. He was to take care of Elis and raise her just what he should really be doing. But he wasn't sure how he would do it. He has never been there for Elis like Hinata and the others.
How the heck am I suppose to raise her when I can't even get my life straight. Plus there are people after me. What would happen to her if she lost me as well.
There were so many things that Sasuke had to think about. He wasn't sure what he would do.
He looked at Hinata's letter and saw the line, Right know she needs you, her father. I know that you have never had any experiences with a child but, I know you will do great.
I hope your right, Sasuke said looking up at the ceiling towards the heavens where Hinata was.
He left the room and went to find Elis.
"If your wondering where your daughter is she is with Naruto and Sakura," Tsuande said behind him.
He turned around and saw the hokage right behind him.
"Thanks," Sasuke said turning towards Naruto's house.
"Wait Sasuke. I need to talk to you about something," Tsunade said before he could start running at top speed.

"What do you want to talk about?" Sasuke asked in a dark alley that was only lit by the moon light.
"It's about Hiashi," Tsunade said.
"What about him?" Sasuke said hating the man.
"From a witness that we question it was Hiashi that killed Hinata."
Sasuke punched the wall that was next to him because he was so mad.
"That's not all. He left the village as soon as he did it. So he might get help to kill Elis. And there is probably one person that he could have thought of. You might know him," Tsunade hitting to Sasuke who was going to be Hiashi's partner.
"Itachi," Sasuke said.
"Correct. So you had better be prepared to face him in the future."
Tsunade started to leave but, then had to tell Sasuke one more thing.
"I almost forgot. If you don't want to get in a situation that Elis is captured and is near death I suggest you train her to use that power of her's. It may come in handy," Tsunade said turning her head to Sasuke.
Tsunade finally left.

Sasuke finally came to the door of Naruto's apartment. It was 5:00 in the morning of the next day. He had a lot to think about for Elis's and his future. He knew what he had to do for them both. So he knocked the door. And someone opened the door.
Arthur's input: Okay this time I am serious. Sasuke is going to leave. This part I am serious about. Now for Elis he is going to leave her behind.
"What do you want? It's five in the morning," Naruto said rubbing his eyes with only his boxers on.
"Is Elis still asleep?" Sasuke asked.
"Huh," Naruto said opening his eyes.
"Hey if you want to fight I am not in the mood," Naruto said showing his angry eyes.
"No it's not that. By the way I am sorry for that whole thing las night," Sasuke said feeling guilty for being so childish.
"What did you come here for?" Naruto said in a boring tone.
"I came to get my daughter," Sasuke said standing up striaght.
Naruto stood up.
"Naruto who is at the door," Sakura said coming up behind Naruto.
Sakura only had a blanket around her as she came behind Naruto.
"Sakura! Naruto! WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU DO IT WHILE A TWELEVE YEAR OLD IS IN YOUR HOUSE?!" Sasuke said at the top of his lungs.
He was so made that he woke Elis up.
"Naruto, Sakura what is going on?" Elis said from Naruto's bedroom.
"Put some clothes on while I talk to her," Sasuke said letting himself in with a disgusted face on him
