"Well, liked him last year, but then I was like, what an ass." - Sabrina

Chapter 25

"Urgh…" I leaned against the tree, holding Mizuki in my arms while the baby in my stomach twisted in all directions telling me it was time to come out. I felt something rising up in my throat and I coughed it into my hand. Blood.

"Do you get it, sister? Children of the Kumagaya clan have either white chakra or black chakra. The ones with the black are cursed from the beginning. They are bound to hurt others. The ones with white chakra are bound to help others, even at the cost of their life. That will be their nature, and they won't be able to change it.

"More importantly, if others find out about this… they will be both feared and honored. Don't you feel repulsed, seeing your daughter do that? Don't you feel disgusted? Don't you just hate her now?"

"I could never hate my own daughter!" I screamed. I held Mizuki up to my chest, but I didn't feel the same emotions as usual. It was like she was a foreign object to me, of no relation to me at all.

I looked my brother square in the eye and lifted up my hand, lighting him on fire. "Good riddance."

"Mom, let's go home," Mizuki whispered. I attempted to get up, but it hurt so bad that I couldn't.

"Mizuki…" I whispered. The emotions were starting to return. She was my daughter, she is my daughter.

I hugged her tightly. "I love you."

Mizuki wrapped her arms around me, kissing my cheek. "I love you too mommy." I then gripped Mizuki tighter, the pain was returning. I coughed more blood out onto my clothing, but I lay there silently, lifelessly. MY eyes slowly drooped until they were closed.

Hurried voices came from ahead.

"I saw it come from here!"

"A bright flash?"

"Yes!"

"What's that coughing sound?"

The two men, underlings of the hokage (Naruto!!), jumped down, noticing my brother's horribly charred body and then they saw me.

"I have a pregnant woman here."

"Take her to the hospital immediately."

"And the child?"

"Her shoulder is bleeding a lot and there are two scratches on her cheeks."

"No, I okay," Mizuki assured them. I opened one eye slightly just in time to see Mizuki put her hand to herself. Her hand glowed white for a moment and her shoulder was healed.

"Did your mommy teach you that?" The man asked her. My eyes closed again.

"No I taught myself!" She seemed very proud of herself.

"This baby is not coming out until Sasuke's here!" I screamed at the doctor, throwing a nearby random medical instrument at him. I wanted Sakura as my doctor, damnit!

He caught the object. Scissors. Good choice.

"The baby's almost out without you even trying." It was a male doctor.

The pain was almost unbearable. "WHERE IS HE GODDAMNIT!?"

"FUUUUUCK!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. With that final push the baby came out. A wailing ball of sickening materials.

"'s a girl…" I whispered before they snipped the umbilical cord and took her out. She was born two months early so she'd probably have to be in one of those glass cases for a long time.

I sighed.

Babies are so confusing. I never want another one.

To interrupt my thoughts, the door burst open. There was Sasuke. He was wearing a hospital gown and a mask-thingy.

"Saki!" He yelled, running in and kissing me gently on the lips. "How's Rinji?"

"Umm, fine."

"Really now? Burnt to a crisp? You must've been preeeetty angry."

"Maybe I was."

"Gonna elaborate?"

"Not planning on it."

"Maybe tonight."

"Maybe not." I narrowed my eyes at him.

"Mommy!" Mizuki screamed, jumping up into me and hugging me fiercely. I smiled at her, placing her on the ground soon after.

"Want to go see her?" I asked Mizuki. Mizuki nodded happily. Sasuke helped me off of the bed and down the hall. When we finally made it to the room, the doctors stepped back so we could see her. I smiled. The miracle of life made that tiny child. My tiny child. Mizuki ooed and awed.

"Mommy… why is she so bony?" Mizuki whispered, her hand on the glass.

"She was so excited to leave mommy's tummy that she came two months early and she wasn't quite done growing," Sasuke explained.

"Oh. I seeee." Mizuki bit her lip. She didn't seem to get it. I turned to Sasuke, putting my arms around him.

"You know what this means right?"

"What?"

"We have a new child. A beautiful baby girl."

Okay men, so here's how it's going down.

I'm taking a hiatus. No updates on any of my stories (except Lances of Doom OHSHC Fanfic on Picklez'n'Cheez-luv and Decisions, Decisions My new naruto fic, but I won't get them done quickly) until September. I have a lot of stuff going on (like tomorrow I'm leaving all weekend for a wedding) and I just won't have time to write. Also I don't have enough inspiration in Summer. In Winter you're like "YES! I get to leave school and write!" but in Summer you're all "no, I could write anytime I wanted to"

ANYWAYS

I thought I should let you know that.

I'll probably write a lot just because I told you this, but I will not updte even if you beg me. Maybe I'll do a super-duper mass-update in September.

Anyways I'll always be on the computer (most likely on fanfiction) a lot so if you just want chat or ask me for advice or something random like that, go for it! I'd love to talk! I'm tired of my friends anyway!

-thumbs up-

Talk to you in September! (heheheh my birthday's on the fourth of September, I'm' getting a subscription to Shounen Jump!)

Leave me a message anytime you want

BYEEEEEEE
