------ 10 years later

"Hokage-sama..."
addressed an jounin, entering an office. The Hokage turned to him,
his blonde hair blowing in his face and his white coat flowing in the
wind. One would think it was on fire if it wasn't for the fake flames
on the bottom. He smiled.
"Yes, Shikamaru?" Shikamaru
smiled as he saw the Hokage holding his 2 year old daughter.
"The
Kazekage will be here shortly." He informed.
"Uncle
gaawa..." said the two year old in her sleep. The hokage
laughed. He left the office and went out on the balcony with his
wife. She took her daughter from his arms and hugged her. the Hokage
smiled.
"The kazakage's coming." He said, brushing her
long hair away from her face.
"I know. Shikamaru told me
before he told you, naruto." Naruto looked insulted.
"But
but... Hinata-chan! I'm the hokage! I should know this stuff
first..." He said, his childish innocince returning to his
voice. She laughed and kissed him on the cheek.
"Oh please."
Said a voice from the door way.
"'oh please'? come on Gaara?
are you jealous or something? You know i think i saw a girl looking
at you, and i mean looking at you the last time
i was in the sand village." laughed naruto.
"Uncle
gaawa?" The little girl said again, waking up. She looked over
at gaara and her eyes flow open. "Uncle Gaawa! Unlce gaawa!"
She cried holding out her arms.
"What does she want?"
"Her
'uncle gaawa' what else?" Naruto laughed.
"And who put
the idea in her head that i was her uncle?"
"Oh you
know, Haku. She gets ideas from the craziest places." said
Hinata, glancing over at her husband.
"I'm still lost at why
you named her Haku. That almost seemes to innocent for someone thats
his child." Gaara said nodding his head toward Naruto. He
just laughed.
"Well, before she was born, all the signs said
that she was going to be a boy. even when she was born she looked
like a guy except for something." He said. "And i used to
know someone who's gender was rather confusing so we named her after
him." gaara just shook his head.
"What are you going to
name the next one?" He said, looking over at Hinata. She placed
her hand over her stomach and smiled.
"Well, we're going to
wait till the baby's born in order to name it. If its a girl then
we're thinking... Tsunade. If its a boy then it'll be sarutobi."
Explained Naruto.
"Why not Arashi?" Asked
Gaara.
"Well... for... personal reasons." Said naruto
smiling weakly.
"We have food set out if your hungry,
gaara-kun." gaara smiled.
"I can't believe you still
call me Gaara-kun after all these years."
"Force of
habit.' She said smiling as they headed for the picnic table outside.
gaara had taken Haku and she was now bouncing around in his
arms.
"Uncle Gaawa came to visit. Uncle Gaawa came to visit."
She said in a sing-song voice. When they reached the table, they
looked over at the monument.
"I can't believe they put my
face up there." Naruto said.
"Yeah. Ugly smug isnt it?"
said Gaara, remembering the joke from long ago. Naruto just looked at
him and laughed. They sat down and gaara went for the chocolate only
to find a little hand in the way. He looked down at Haku who had just
put a piece of chocolate in her mouth and was looking up at Gaara
with full light eyes, shining innocently. gaara just shook his head
and grabbed his own bit of chocolate. Naruto also shook his head.
"I
swear, she's around you to much."
"Temari and Kankuro
just love her." Gaara said, grabbing another piece of chocolate.
"Kankuro has been joking around saying that if your next kid is
a boy maybe he will teach him puppetry." Naruto laughed but
Hinata just smiled, thinking.
"That would be interesting."
She said. "Someone from the leaf learning a sand
technique."
"It's not the first time thats happened."
Joked Naruto. Over the years, he and Gaara had swaped many a
techniques, some he shared with Hinata.
"You know you look a
lot like him now." Said Gaara after a moments silence. naruto
smiled with a sad look on his face.
"That's what i tell him
every so often. If it wasn't for his fox whiskers, he would be an
exact clone pratically." Naruto's smile disappeared and he was
deep in thought. Hinata and Gaara continued to talk. Naruto looked
over at Haku. He walked over and picked his daughter up from Gaara's
lap. He carried her to the edge of the balcony. Haku looked up at
him. Naruto ran his hand through her blonde hair. Hinata and Gaara
stopped talking and looked over at him. And there was silence. naruto
held his daughter up and she giggled.
"You know haku... One
day... when you and you brother are older." Naruto was just
saying brother because it sounded right. "I'll tell you the
story of the man on that monument. The man that is your grandpa. And
when you hear it, I want you to think about it. Think about what that
man has done and the people he enfluenced. And only then, will you be
able to see what a great man he was and why his face is up there. and
why the whole village acknowledged him and loved him just as much as
he loved that village. I don't want you to ever take advantage of
that man's heritage. Live it, love it, be it. Live for the village,
Love the village, and be there for the village. This is your home.
Always was and always will be. Even when times are dark, you have
people who love you and will show you the light. And there are the
people who will support you no matter what, even if it's from the
shadows. Love those people, no matter how hard or bad they treat
you..." naruto had a lot more to say, but his tears prevented
him from saying them. He hugged his daughter and cryed
silently.
------ 7 months later -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sakura
came out of the hospital room and confronted Naruto.
"Hokage-sama."
She said smiling. "You have a baby son." Naruto's smile
widened and he went in to see his wife.
"What shall we call
him?" Asked Hinata, holding her new son.
"We'll call him
Sarutobi... sarutobi Arashi." Said naruto smiling and he bent
down and kissed his wife on the head and held
her.
