Chapter 14: The Return of a Loved One
As Sarada approaches the cave, she remembers what Sasuke told her about her mother and the life they had together. She enters the cave and close by it is a cross where her mother first died just like what Sasuke said in the story. Sarada sees a figure that had a nun costume and asks who he or she is. "I don't mean any harm. I'm only putting flowers in this area for a special friend who died years ago". "Are you Kabuto?" "Yes I am. How do you know my name?" "My father told me about you and I was hoping you can help me find information about my mother". "Father? Hmmm". Kabuto looks at the girl closely and sees the Uchiha symbol on her back. "You are Sarada Uchiha. So that means he told you the truth huh?"
"Yeah. He also told me that you could bring back the dead". "Well. I'm not into doing that anymore because I hate messing with the dead. Is that why you are here? In order for you to meet your mother". "Yes. I want to meet Sora, my mother. I want answers and find out more about my life". "Okay, but you have to calm down. I don't want you to be disappointed". Kabuto uses the reanimation jutsu and out comes a coffin. It opens and a woman comes out of the coffin. Sarada sees an Uchiha symbol on the corpse's back. Sora wakes up with normal eyes since Kabuto has perfected the reanimation jutsu, but uses it for the orphans to see their parents.
Sora talks "Where am I? Kabuto is that you? What is going on?" "I'm sorry Sora. I had to use this jutsu, but this isn't for evil. Someone wants to meet you?" "Who?" "Your daughter standing right there". As Sora looks to see Sarada, Sarada cries and is shocked that Sora looks a lot like her than Sakura. Sora begins to cry and is happy to see Sarada. "Sarada. It's really you. Come here". "No stay away from me. How can you die when I needed you the most? I hate what you did and what dad did". Kabuto says "I'll leave you 2 alone. You must have tons to talk about. Sora you only have a short time until this jutsu wears off".
"Sarada I'm sorry. I wanted to have a child so bad with your father in order to remember and cherish our love in". Sora comes in and touches Sarada's back. Sarada softly punches Sora, but it didn't stop Sora from leaving. "You and papa left me for many years. How can you 2 consider yourselves parents if you aren't here? Why?" Sarada cries until Sora holds her close and tight. "I'm really sorry Sarada. I never meant to hurt you. I thought having Sakura as a mother would make you so happy, that you would never remember me". Sarada realizes the position she is in and remembers the times when she was a baby someone was holding her softly and it was Sora. "I remember this. You hug and hold me better than my other mother does. Its strange, but I remember when you and I would sleep together and you use to hug me all the time". "Its true. I'm glad you remembered. You also told me bedtime stories and smiled when I was a baby. Why do I have glasses?"
"It's because you must have caught a virus when I gave birth. It's complicated, but my friend Kabuto helped me to become a human so that's why". "Mom. What is your connection with dad?" Well, your father and I fell madly in love since the beginning. He was lonely, scared, sad, and angry. Kind of like you are right now. I came into his life and we connected. He couldn't stop being around me and we fell in love quick. After I died, Sasuke wanted me back and he brought me to life with the help from Kabuto. I told him I wanted a baby so bad because I wanted your father to look at you and remember the love we had for each other. I know its confusing, but when he looks at you, he sees me".
"Mom. I'm sorry I kicked you. I wish you were still here with me because you are so kind and caring". Sora pokes Sarada's forehead and remembers Sakura doing that once. "I'm glad Sakura taught you to be kind and gentle. You have my eyes". Kabuto comes in and tells Sora that time is running out. Sora and Sarada hug and kisses her cheek to say goodbye until Sasuke and the others come in. "Sora". "Sasuke". Everyone is surprised to see Sora alive except Chouchou who is confused with what's going on. Sasuke takes off his cape and approaches Sora and Sarada. "You finally met your mother". "Mama told me the entire truth. I'm sorry papa for yelling at you". "Its alright. I deserve it". Sora glows since the reanimation jutsu is wearing off causing her to disappear. "No I don't want you to leave mama". Kabuto says "If you want Sarada, I can let you and your mother talk whenever you want". "Really. That's awesome we can talk all the time now mom".
