I own nothing, but I love it.

Naruto, things would be boring without it.

Continuation of the earlier chapter

"HRAAAA!" Sasuke shouted as he tried to rush forward, but was stopped by two Tenshi Anbu before he could even go further. The rest of his team joined the Anbu to help restrain Sasuke from attacking the woman in front of them. Kakashi himself couldn't believe the strange coincidence who the female was sitting in front of them.

"I certainly hope you have better manners than this dear Sasuke kun." The blond woman taunted. She had been here to consolidate with the Grass leader and clear any trail the Uzumaki clan had left behind. It was not her intention to reveal herself to Sasuke, but the look he was giving her was getting annoying. It was as if he was accusing her of being someone, but now that he knew the truth he was raging.

"I killed you!" Sasuke shouted as she sat there beside Hazamei Izumi who was watching with a sigh This would be another rather annoying day while she herself tried to find a way to make things right. She didn't want two villages causing trouble inside her own especially when one of them happened to be their ally while the other happened to be the strongest village in the land.

"Oh really Sasuke kun? Did you kill me? Did you think that throwing off the cliff would kill me? Not while my husband lives can you kill me. Not even in you most wild of imaginations." the blond woman stated. Izumi started to get annoyed at his and decided that the best course of action would be to intervene. The last thing that her village needed was a brawl between two villages and with them to blame for it.

"Enough! Kakashi san get your subordinate under control!" Izumi shouted while she herself stood up with authority. There was no way that she would allow them to destroy their village much less put her village into a compromising situation.

"Forgive me Sasuke." Kakashi thought as he undid his sharingan. In mere seconds Sasuke fell asleep once Kakashi used his sharingan on him. For their parts both Sakura and Izumi were relived while Temari was just glad that it was now over.

"So is there something else we need to discuss or would you rather have my head on a silver platter right now?" Temari said reminding the rest of their presence and how much dislike Temari had for this situation altogether. Right now she would prefer to play with her two sons, but for now she would have to endure once all the tracks were covered.

"Nothing much since we were just here to give a message from the Hokage of Konoha. However if you wouldn't mind I would like to ask lady Temari some questions." The grey haired jounin mentioned despite the hateful gaze that Temari had been directing towards him.

"The Gondaime Hokage has a message for the Village of the Grass?" Izumi thought while wondering if this was related to the news that Temari was going to tell her.

"Well whatever the reason it would be best if Sakura san took Sasuke to the hospital to rest." Temari said while sitting there looking at Kakashi with the same eyes that she had been using to look at him for the past few moments. Kakashi was truly surprised to what he had heard. He had not expected to hear such suggestions of kindness from Temari who appears to hate him and his team with a passion judging by the eyes that she had been using to stare at them.

The suggestion seemed to be a good one so Kakashi decided to take her up on her suggestion despite the protest of Sakura who wanted to ask her something rather important. Kakashi knew what was that she wanted to ask, but he had to let her wait for later.

"Now that we are at a more calm and peaceful setting, I think it would be best if we reintroduced ourselves and our intentions." Izumi said as everyone sat beside Temari as Kakashi sat right infront of the two.

"I am Hatake Kakashi, jounin of Konoha and I am here on a mission to deliver an important message from Konoha. " Kakashi began bowing formally.

"I am Kanade Izumi and I am the representative of the Grass to accept this message in their behalf. Here at my side is the ally of the Village of the Grass the Village of the Tenshi." Kanade Izumi joined as Temari made an introduction that would cause Kakashi to shake in his seat.

"I am Uzumaki Temari, representative of the Village of the Tenshi to the Village of the Grass. It is I who will stand in the place of Tenshikage in the upcoming meeting and transactions that we are about to have." Temari stated as Kakashi's visible eye kept its neutral demeanor, but his fist clenched showing he was agitated by that response.

Temari in spite of herself kept her calm and looked at Kakashi. She knew the pain that he must feel and the agitation within himself that must be building up after years of thinking that his student was dead only to find out later that all that grieving was for naught and all the self pity he had gone through was worthless. To tell the truth she felt more pity than anger. Despite all that had happened her husband held a high regard for his sensei, Hatake Kakashi although not as high as his regard for Jiraiya the sanin who was a father figure as much as he was a teacher.

However somewhere else a certain pink haired shinobi was crying as she sat by the medical bed of her husband. Her heart was broken. She was not a fool to not be able to see the truth that was hidden behind Temari's arrival. She knew who Temari worked for if not she might even be married to him. She cursed herself for not going after to find his body. She would have wanted nothing more than to have a family with him and with their children. She knew that they would have had a wonderful life. Right now those dreams had faded into dust then it changed more into knives piercing her aching heart. She had wondered inside herself why did he not return to his home? Most importantly to her whom he proclaimed loved so much? He could have returned anytime from that incident and she would have gladly married him and become his wife as well as bear his children and they might have even become the greatest family in Konoha with him as Hokage and her as head of the Medical Division of Konoha. Right there and then she stopped crying as her eyes steeled itself with the strength that he had once inspired her to have. She would find out, she would understand and she would not fail.

"Naruto, you will explain to me everything weather you want to or not." Sakura said while her voice said nothing more than the determination in her heart as she forgot that she was in front of her husband who was still in the hospital bed. However such was not the case as her husband was now awake and was staring at the opposite direction of his wife.

"Naruto dobe..." Sasuke muttered while Sakura steeled herself. Sasuke continued to pretend to be injured for the fear that if he awoke Sakura would question him on why he had done the deed.
