So here have some cute moments around baby Sakura more than Sakura herself.
Also in the two first short moments, Kakashi hasn't made up with his team yet.
Including protective ANBU, a worried and resigned Kakashi, and a new recruit Shisui.ext
Kakashi already regrets asking the ANBU for help while standing outside the training ground. They all wanted to be the ones to look after Sakura that a tournament had been made. They were acting At least Sakura was having a great time watching the fighting.
He reminded himself that at least Sakura would be safe until he returned home, hopefully, it wouldn't take him too long. He had never been away from her so for such a long time since…
What if she forgot about him?! What if he didn't come back?! Or thought he had abandoned her?! Anxiety began to take a hold of him slowly making it hard to breathe. Suddenly he felt a gloved hand on his shoulder, and he froze for a second before looking over his shoulder to see lynx.
Lynx was one of the older men, well known as the strongest ANBU around. He kind of acted like a "dad-friend" according to Yamato. Everyone always wanted to impress the man, his disappointment made you feel like you had committed treason. There was no need to see his face in order to feel his disappointment. Even Kakashi looked up to the man, Lynx had admitted that he once had had kids too. Everyone
He had brought Sakura her second favorite dress and ended up being the one knowing the most about taking care of kids. He had even shown Kakashi how to change a diaper. They must have been one hell of a shock for people that saw them two renowned ANBU learning about diapers.
"Don't worry kid, Sakura loves you just keep the focus on coming back… even if that means failing the mission" His deep voice was almost comfortable reminding him of faded memories. Lynx made him feel safe and he image that was how it felt to have a dad.
He looked back at the ANBU giving his hand a squint thankful that Lynx didn't nag him for the reason he was worried. Looking back at them he was felt with resigned amusement.
Kakashi facepalmed when one of the seniors was beating and looked to be in tears over the outcome. The other ANBU that had lost offering their sympathy and condolences to the crying ANBU.
Shisui was excited for his first day as an official ANBU member he even got his own animal, a raven! His senpai was called cat and today they were going to train with the other ANBU. Arriving at the training ground saw them all standing together looking at something, curiosity got the better of him and he wiggled his way through the mob and saw a baby.
A baby. A baby strapped to a red baby strap. A baby strapped to a clearly very proud ANBU member. Shisui blinked. A baby with pink hair, green eyes, and a cute yellow dress.
"Beeeaaar" his senpai whined. Whined as he came closer before beginning to baby talk. Baby talk to the baby. One of the others taking a picture of the baby when she smiled at him. Another showed up handing a small wolf teddy.
The baby seemed happy to see them all, just laughing and clapping at the members, taking the wolf and mumbling something like kaka-papa. It seemed to make them all melt while cooing at her.
"Hound is on a mission, and I got to watch Sakura," Bear said sound smug. Were all the ANBUs on crack or something?! He must have made a noise since the bab- Sakura. She was called Sakura. Turned towards him and made grabby hands.
It seemed to wake the others up from their daydream and they all turned around to look at him at the same time. Suddenly he was reminded that these were the elite shinobis of Konoha. Frozen to the spot he felt sweat began to form as they kept looking at him through their masks.
The girl began to whine looking like she was about to cry and Shisui felt like he had just kicked a kitten. It wasn't until one of them pushed him towards the little girl that he offered her a sweating shaking hand.
The girl happily grabbed his hand offering him a cute hi and handshake. She had to use both of her tiny hands for it and Shisui was lost. This must have been how Itachi-chan had felt about Sasuke. Someone clapped him on the back, but Shisui was still lost in how adorable she was. By the time Shisui came home, he saw Obito who seemed to complain about his old teammate's lack of communication, and it hit him at once who Sakura had as a dad.
He quietly wowed not to be the one that told Obito about it and began to watch his cousin with suspicion. There had to be a valid reason for Kakashi not to have told him.
Minato was having a peaceful day, and everything was going great. Kakashi was still finally showing his face outside of work. Sakura was adorable, like the cutest little thing he had ever seen. He had sadly not seen much of her since Kakashi guarded her almost jealous Minato had long since learned to pick his battles with that kid. He was currently talking with Inoichi about the positive improvement that seemed to mysteriously appear among the ANBU.
Suddenly the door was slammed open with so much force that it embedded into the wall. One of his ANBU stood in the door it took less than a second to see it was Raven "Shisui" his mind whispered to him. He fully expected an attack on Konoha, but instead of looking at him raven looked over at his bodyguards.
"Code pink!" was all he yelled out before it was only him and Inoichi that were left in the room. The two blonds looked around the room and feeling for the others' chakra but finding none they looked towards one another.
…What had just happened?!
Later that day, Minato had spent it all running around like a headless chicken. He found out that all his ANBU had caused mutiny to take down Danzo. Because turned out that Danzo was a total sick asshole that experimented on children. Children that he had kidnapped, and he only now knew about it because he went after Sakura?!
Now all his ANBU were acting like feral bears or birds with their feathers ruffled.
Inoichi lifted his sake cup in greeting when he entered, and Minato nodded back before taking the seat beside him. Must have been a blow to his pride when he found out a baby had been the one to help them instead of him. They just sat there as Minato took a cup and slammed it back letting the sake burn down his throat.
"At least now you know why your ANBU are doing better"
