"I would have never thought a mere child could defeat Kakashi," Tsunade stated before she swallowed a gulp of sake. "That's just impossible." A knock on the door snapped Tsunade out of her thoughts. "Whoever it is, come on in." Sasuke came in dressed in ANBU uniform with a raven mask resting on top of his head. He knelt in front of the Godaime. "I take it everything is ready?"

"Hai, Hokage-sama," Sasuke replied respectfully.

"Bring Naruto back at any means necessary," Tsunade commanded. "And don't allow the Akatsuki to follow you back here."

"Understood," Sasuke said.

"Dismissed." Sasuke disappeared in a poof of smoke before Tsunade leaned back into her chair, sighing heavily. "I never thought things would get complicated," she said to herself before taking another gulp of the sake.

Next Day: Akatsuki Headquarters

"I am going to kill you, brat!" a voice roared out. Naruto leaned back a bit to look into the hall only to see Naruchi, who was grinning his little head off, running away from an angry Kisame, who was wearing yellow clothing. Naruto raised an eyebrow before Naruchi leapt into his lap. Kisame stopped in his tracks.

"I'm almost afraid to ask what happened," Naruto snickered.

"The kid tossed my clothing into a bucket filled with yellow dye!" Kisame exclaimed, pointing at the child hidden by Naruto's form.

The blond chuckled a little as he ran his fingers through his youngest son's ebony locks. "Kisame," Naruto said in a deadly sweet voice. "You know how protective a fox can get over their kit." He looked over to the shark-looking nin before smirking sadistically. "And I will act on my instincts."

"Okay, I get the hint," Kisame stated, putting his hands in front of him defensively.

"What the hell happened to you?" someone asked from the doorway that led outside.

"Hi, Grandpa!" Naruchi greeted, running over to the older blond. "I put Uncle Kisame's clothes in a bucket filled with yellow dye! I got it from Uncle Dei."

"I think you need to stay out of Uncle Dei's room," Arashi stated. Naruchi looked at the floor before grinning and looking back up at his grandfather. The youngest of the Uchiha children held his arms up, as if asking to be held. "Alright," the former Yondaime said as he bent down and picked up the small child. "Kisame, go ahead and go fix your clothes. Or get new ones. Doesn't really matter." Kisame nodded before he walked out of the room. Arashi sat down by his son. "How are you feeling today?"

"Moody," Naruto replied, giggling a little. "Where's Kyosuke?"

"Outside. Sparring with Sasori."

"Should he really be sparring?" Naruto asked. "I mean, he used up a lot of chakra a few days ago. And I don't mean all from his fight with Kakashi. He was using a lot for his training with you. And he did just wake up a couple days ago."

"That is true," Arashi said, sighing a little. "But that kid is stubborn."

"He's Kyosuke," Naruchi pointed out. "Kyonii-san has always been stubborn."

"He acts like he is an Uchiha," Naruto stated, picking up his youngest kit before placing the ebony-haired child in his lap. "Then again, being raised by Itachi does that to you. You know, I have even caught Kyo mimicking Itachi when he was younger. Like when he was three years old, he did everything Itachi did."

"I remember that," the older blond said. "I also remember him trying to throw shurikens at Tobi and Kisame."

"That was pretty funny, but he did that when he was Itanane's age."

"It's sad on how fast a child can grow up," Arashi stated, trying to sound dramatic.

"You don't have a say in that because you disappeared from most of my life," Naruto pointed out.

"But you still grew up pretty fast," the Akatsuki Leader stated. "I mean, you already have a family. And I feel like I've missed so much."

"I am refusing to comment on that," the younger blond said, sighing a little. His gaze snapped over to the window, fixing into a glare. This did not go unnoticed by Naruto's father, who was staring out the same window curiously. "I thought I saw something," Naruto answered the former Yondaime's unasked question. "Must have been my imagination." He looked down at his youngest son, who was blinking his eyes sleepily. "But I do know a certain someone is ready for a nap," Naruto said, giggling a little. Naruchi looked up into his mother's blue eyes.

"But I'm –yawn!- not sleepy," Naruchi stated. Naruto chuckled a little before he stood with the small child still in his arms.

"Come on," Naruto said. "Naptime." Naruchi yawned again before he balled up in his mother's cradled arms, burying his face into Naruto's clothed chest.

Arashi watched the two disappear down the hall with a smirk before a look of concentration met his face. He stood and went over to the window that he and Naruto were looking out of a few minutes earlier. His eyes narrowed as he looked out of the small square-shaped hole in the wall. He sensed something was there. He didn't know what, but he knew something was there. He abandoned the window and went down the hall to Naruto's room. He opened the door and let a small amused smile greet his lips. Naruto was curled up on his bed with Naruchi held close to his chest, sleeping peacefully. The both of them were. "Naruchi wasn't the only tired one, I guess," Arashi said to himself before he left the room. "But I am curious as to what it was that I sensed."

Outside, in the distance, Kyosuke turned his attention to the surrounding forest. Sasori looked at the child blankly, but was wondering why Kyosuke had suddenly stopped. "Kyosuke?" Sasori called out. "Something wrong?" Kyosuke turned his attention back to the puppet master he was originally sparring with. He shook his head a little. Something did catch his attention in the forest, but he figured that he was hallucinating since it disappeared after a second. He was still a little curious as to what it was. "You normally don't just turn your attention to something else just like that."

"I'm fine, Uncle Sasori," Kyosuke replied. "I think I'm just imagining stuff. When does dad get back from his mission with Uncle Dei?"

"I'm not sure," Sasori said. "But I feel sorry for Itachi. Deidara is a handful."

"Especially with his exploding works of art!" Kyosuke laughed. "I don't think dad will handle that very well!"

Sasori couldn't help but chuckle at Kyosuke's statement. Sometimes, the kid said the weirdest, but most truthful, things that the puppet master had ever heard. The kid was even starting to make logical statements, and he was only eight years of age. Sometimes, everyone thought the kid was growing up too fast. "Alright, I think that's enough training today," Sasori called out to the young child.

"Aw, come on! I can keep training. Just because I woke out of my coma a couple days ago doesn't mean that I'm weak."

"I'm pretty sure he's not calling you weak," someone across from the small clearing stated. Hidan had made his way through the brush of the forest. "But you look as though you can use a small break."

"I don't need to rest, Uncle Hidan," Kyosuke huffed, crossing his arms over his chest. "I still have plenty of energy left!"

"You still need to rest from time to time."

"Let's think about this for a second, my dear uncles. If I was in a serious fight like then one I had with that Kakashi guy, and I needed a rest, do you think my opponent would just go ahead and allow me to rest? I need to keep fighting until I reach my limits, and even then, I can't let down."

"Like you did with Kakashi," Sasori stated. "Once you reach your limit, you can't continue fighting without destroying yourself from the inside."

"How can I destroy myself from the inside?"

"Pushing past your limit can put severe pressure on your body," Hidan replied. "And then your body would just shut down or collapse on you. You wouldn't even be able to move."

"I get it. I think."

"Don't push yourself past your limit," Sasori stated. "Unless you have no choice. If you do push yourself that far, and if you are unable to move, the enemy would most likely take your life."

"Okay. I understand. Don't use so much strength and chakra. Save some energy to continue the fight. Don't use all of it or else you lose your life. I get it. I get it."

"So are you going to rest and regain your strength now?" Hidan asked.

"Yeah, since you two aren't leaving me a choice. How about we head back home, though?" When his uncles nodded, he grinned. "Race you guys home!" He took off in a sprint towards their home. Hidan and Sasori looked at each other for a second before chasing after him. Maybe Kyosuke wasn't growing up as fast as everyone thought. All three were leaping from branch to branch until they landed in front of the Akatsuki Headquarters. Sasori was the first to land before Kyosuke and then Hidan. "Aw, man! Uncle Sasori, you are really fast."

"Or maybe you are too slow," Sasori said back.

"No, you're too fast!"

"What are you guys arguing about?" Kisame asked, coming out of the house with his Akatsuki cloak on.

"Gramps sending you out on a mission?" Kyosuke asked.

"No, your little brother decided it was a great idea to dye my clothes yellow." Kyosuke stared blankly before he started at laugh. Sasori was just staring blankly while Hidan was chuckling. "It's not funny!"

"Yes it is!" Kyosuke laughed out. "Man, Naruchi really does take a lot after mom!"

"Weird how that works out," Sasori stated. "Naruchi looks like his father, but acts like Naruto. And I'm still curious as to where you got your personality, Kyosuke."

Kyosuke shrugged his shoulders when he stopped laughing. "I don't know. Don't really care right now! I'm just the way I am."

"A pervert?" Kisame asked in a joking tone. Kyosuke replied by throwing a kunai at the shark-looking-nin. "I'm serious! You can't deny that you are a pervert!"

"Only a little," Kyosuke huffed. Then he saw the looks he was receiving from his uncles. "Okay, maybe more then a little."

"Knew it," the taller nin said, crossing his arms over his chest after allowing a knowing smile on his blue face and closing his eyes.

"Yeah, well, don't bother asking me where I got it because I don't know!"

"Probably from your father," Sasori stated.

"Dad isn't a pervert, unless it involves mom."

"Wrong father," Sasori said.

Kyosuke's eyes narrowed dangerously before he scoffed. "Yeah, right. I hate that damn bastard. And I don't care if I know him or not. I despise him for what he did to my mom those years ago. And I wouldn't even call him my 'father'. Itachi's my dad. I grew up thinking that, and I will keep growing up believing it."

"Not much longer until you grow up completely," Hidan said, leaning against a random tree close by.

"What do you mean by that, Uncle Hidan?"

"He means you grow up too fast," Kisame replied. "I mean, when you were just a couple years old, you could already think like an adult. Then you turned four and started acting like one, for the exceptions of mimicking Itachi."

"Then I turned six and threw shurikens at you and Uncle Tobi!" Kyosuke happily exclaimed. "Good times, good times."

"Only to you and anyone else watching," Kisame growled out. "God, the humiliation!"

"But it was still funny," Sasori stated. Hidan nodded in agreement. "Even Hidan agrees."

"And so does Uncle Dei," Kyosuke pointed out.

"Of course he would," Hidan responded. "We couldn't get him to stop laughing about it. Took hours just to get him to shut up about it and it took longer to get him to quit giving you more shurikens."

"And kunais," Kyosuke added with a grin on his face.

"God, don't remind me of those being thrown around," Kisame said, lowering his head with a heavy sigh. "Could never find out where they're headed."

"At least I had control of them!" Kyosuke proclaimed. "If I didn't, you'd be dead."

"That's what we mean by your growing up to fast," Hidan pointed out. "You've been able to do Taijutsu since you were five years old, surprisingly, and you've been throwing kunais and shurikens since you were six. Then Leader-sama trains you in combat. You're growing up a little to fast."

"I just want to be able to protect me mom when no one else can," Kyosuke quietly said.

"Just give it a rest and have a little fun every now and then," Kisame said, ruffling the child's silvery blond hair.

"But I do have fun!" Kyosuke laughed out. "It's known as 'Grab Uncle Tobi and Torture Uncle Kisame'!"

"I hate that game," Kisame mumbled. Kyosuke just continued to laugh harder. He stopped before looking back into the forest. "What's up?"

Kyosuke didn't answer. "He did the same thing when we were sparring," Sasori stated. "He said he was probably imagining it, but I don't think he believes that anymore."

"I don't," Kyosuke replied. "There's someone or something out there. I can just sense them for a second before they disappear."

Kisame, Hidan, and Sasori all looked at one another before nodding a little. "Kyosuke," Kisame called out, catching the attention of the eight-year-old. "How about you go check up on your mom and siblings." Kyosuke was about to say something, until he saw that not only was his Uncle Kisame looking into the forest, but as were his other two uncles. He knew that if he refused, the other two would make him go in. with a heavy sigh, Kyosuke stuffed his hands in his pockets before he went inside of the large mansion-like building he called home. "Let's go check it out," Kisame said to the other two Akatsuki members, who nodded in return before all three of them went into the forest.

Inside, Kyosuke started to look around for his family. He went to Itanane's room first, thinking she would be in there. She was, reading her books on different kinds of jutsus. He figured that would be what she was doing. He left when she started to practice a few of the ones she read about. When he went to Naruchi's room and didn't see his younger brother there, first thing he did was run to his mother's room to see if he was there instead. He gave out a small sigh of relief when he saw his mom and little brother curled up on the bed. 'You're growing up a little too fast' Hidan's statement ran through his head for a minute before Kyosuke walked into the room and climbed into the bed. He laid next to Naruto, resting his head on the blonde's side before he closed his eyes.

He didn't know that his little movement woke the Kyuubi vessel, who was looking at his oldest child a little surprised before a small smile graced his lips as he wrapped a protective arm around his son. Naruto ran his finger's though Kyosuke's hair absent-mindedly, completely unaware of his son's steady breathing. When he did notice, his smile grew a little. "Even an eight-year-old needs naps, apparently," he chuckled to himself before he buried his face into the soft pillow under his head and drifted to sleep. He was even oblivious to the figures racing through the trees outside his bedroom window.

A figure flicked into his room, along with two others. They were dressed in black cloaks and each one of them had a raven mask. The one in the middle approached the sleeping trio before lowered a little closer to the bed. The other two moved the children in Naruto's grasp after a few minutes, pausing every now and then whenever they saw the blond move or heard him groan in disapproval. The first one picked up Naruto when the two young ones were out of the way. He held the sleeping blond close to his chest as the other two ANBU placed the slumbering children back on the bed before all three of them, with Naruto, flinted out of the room.

None of them knew that they were sensed. Itanane was working on perfecting a fireball jutsu that she read bout in her book before she paused and looked in the direction of her mother's room. She breathed deeply before she ran out of her room and into her parent's room. She was shocked when she saw both of her brothers, but not her blond mom. She ran over to the bed and started to shake Kyosuke and Naruchi awake. "What?" Kyosuke groaned. He got into a deep sleep pretty fast, and was enjoying it. Naruchi just blink sleepily. "What do you want, Itanane?"

"Where's mom?" Itanane asked in a panicked voice. Kyosuke thought he was asleep for more then a few minutes, then realized that he really wasn't asleep that long. Naruchi was looking around the room with frightful eyes, hoping to spot his mother, but didn't. "Kyosuke?"

"I don't know," Kyosuke finally replied. "I just came in here and he was here and," he paused before he thought back to the things he was sensing. "Damnit!" he cursed before leaping off of the bed and running to his grandfather's room. His siblings followed after him. When he reached the large doors, he started to pound on them. "Gramps! Gramps!" he called out over and over until the doors opened and Kyosuke rushed in.

"What's the matter?" Arashi asked his oldest grandchild.

"Mom's gone!" Itanane answered for her older brother.

Arashi's eyes narrowed. "Get your uncles. Itanane, stay here with Naruchi. Kyosuke, come with me." Kyosuke nodded and followed the Akatsuki leader down the hall as Itanane lead her younger brother to her room, trying to calm him down on the way there.
