The sun went up and Yumi moved around in her bed. She hated mornings. She then remembered the previous day. The meeting, and the Uchiha. She got up from her bed and got dressed. It was only about half past 6. The dark haired girl walked into the kitchen and made cheese sandwiches and poured water in a glass. She didnt dare give him milk. What did criminals drink for breakfast? Yumi didnt know. She put the things on a tray and carried it into Itachi's room and put it on the bedside table. The bandages had to be changed to Yumi sat down on the floor beside the bed and started to change them. There were new bandages on the bedside table, that she took and used. Itachi was still sleeping and Yumi thought he would sleep until noon. She went out to the kitchen and ate breakfast and a quarter to 8, she headed to the Hokage tower for the meeting.

Yumi opened the door to where the Hokage, and probably Kakashi, were, and stepped inside.

"Yumi Kyubi?" Tsunade asked. She sat by a table and Kakashi stood by the wall. Yumi nodded. "You should have told us you were back. We dont know if you are good or evil. Like your.."

"My parents.." Yumi ended her sentence. "Dont you think that I would have attacked the village if I wanted, by now?"

"Well.."

"And would someone 'evil' do a D-rank mission? Clean a whole house and buy furniture and food just for fun?"

Tsunade opened her mouth but this time it was Kakashi that talked. "She is pretty much right." he said to Tsunade, who sighed.

"I guess so." she shrugged. "But she still should have told us."

"Yes I should. And Im sorry for that. But I was so happy to be back that I forgot about it."

"You became jounin when you were 9? That is really good. And you should be alot stronger now, am I right?" Tsunade asked and Yumi nodded yet again. "Then why a D-rank mission? We could need you."

"I like the D-ranks. And I just got back here and I dont think Im read for a mission outside the village."

"If that's how you feel.."

"It is."

"Well then.. I guess there is nothing I can do to make you change your mind?" the Hokage asked and Yumi shook her head. "And you dont want to be an ANBU either?" Yumi shook her head again.

"I dont think so. Its not my.. thing." she said and Tsunade nodded. It went quiet for a while. "Umm.. I better be going."

"Ahh.. Yes.. Have a nice day."

"You too, Tsunade-sama." Yumi smiled and walked out.

"That girl is something good. I can feel it." Tsunade said. "But I wonder what she have done the past 7 years and why she came back."

When heading for the market, Yumi felt many glances and glares. She picked on her black necklace that looked like 9 foxtales growing out from a small orb. When she felt uncomfortable or bad, about something, she always picked on it or her hair.

Yumi arrived at the market and bought vegetables, fruit, fish, meat and tomatoes. It felt good to be by herself with no one yelling her name, wanting to talk to her or... "Yumi-chan!" Yumi sighed. 'So much for that moment.' she thought and turned around, facing a pink haired girl.

"Hi there, Sakura-chan." Yumi said and smiled. "How are you?"

"Hi! Oh Im just fine. And you? You bought food? Have you done your mission yet?" she babbeled on.

"Um.. I dont have time for a mission today." the darkhaired girl said. She saw the look on Sakura's face and remembered that they were to hang out today. "Oh, no. Im so sorry Sakura. I totally forgot. But I guess I can squeeze you in after I leave the food at home." she said with a smile.

Sakura's face lightened up. "Okay. And lets be at your house instead." she said. Yumi nodded and started to walk again and the pinkhaired girl followed. After a few moments of silence, Sakura spoke. "Why did you come back?" she asked. Yumi stopped for a second but then started to walk again.

"I was homesick." she said shortly. That wasnt completly a lie. She had been slightly homesick. And Sakura seemed to be pleased by that answer, because she didnt say anything else.

They arrived at Yumi's house. Yumi walked into the kitchen and Sakura followed her and sat down on one of the chair by the kitchen table. Yumi put the food into the fridge. "Are you hungry?" she asked after she looked at the clock. It was soon half past ten. They could have a fruitsallad.

"Not much." Sakura answered, looking around.

"I will make a fruitsallad." the 17-year old said and the other girl nodded. Yumi started to slice the fruit and Sakura got up and started to explore the house. She walked out in the hallway, opening a few doors, looking in. It was a big house and alot of empty rooms. Sakura figured that Yumi had thrown away alot of old furniture when she came back here.

"Sakura! Its done!" Yumi called from the kitchen.

"Hai!" Sakura called back and walked throught the hallway. But when she walked past the questroom she heard someone, or something. She walked closer to the door and could now hear it was someone who moaned. Who was it? She pushed her ear against the wall and then suddenly the sound died. Sakura got curious and slowly opened the door.
