It was two years after the age of the shinobi had almost ended. Slowly, Konoha, that had been destroyed, was being rebuild. Himawari, who was 14 at the time Isshiki took over Kawaki's body and almost destroyed the world as a result, was now 16 and one of the youngest jounin in the village. She became one right after the was ended. While her brother stayed behind to fight Kawaki in the ruins of the village, Himawari joined Sasuke, Sakura, Shikamaru, Shikadai and Sarada in a mission to save her father from another dimension he was trapped in. While Naruto had been able to protect all the villagers and to evacuate them to neighboring lands in time, mostly Suna, he had paid a heavy price and was sealed away in a far of dimension and left to die. Only thanks to the help of Kurama, Naruto was able to survive until the help troops arrive. Hima didn't think she's ever seen Sasuke show so much emotions as when he saw that Naruto was alive and well.
Thanks to her efforts in saving her father, Hima, who had turned a chunin just weeks before, was rewarded by becoming a jounin. The mission also helped her grow a lot closer to Sarada, who had teached her medical ninjutsu in the years that passed and even Shikadai, although it still felt a bit weird, knowing he was her brother's best friend.
Shikadai entered the Hokage's office. He had no idea why he had been summoned. He was supposed to have a day or two off before going on another mission. He knew the village was tight on forces due to it still recovering from the destruction of the village after the situation with Kawaki, and that Naruto was accepting all incoming mission, many including S-rank mission, but Naruto usually was very good in making sure every shinobi at least had a day of rest after a mission. Shikadai had only returned that same morning from an extremely tiring A-rank mission.
"Shikadai, I'm so sorry to already call you in, but an S-rank mission just came in that is just perfect for your profile. I'll give you the details of your mission in a bit, were just waiting for your companion to arrive."
Just at that moment, the sound of a soft knock could be heard. The door swung open and a girl came in. The girl had shiny purple hair that he knew so well. She walked in with the confidence fitting for the daughter of the Hokage. She was wearing her V-necked yellow blouse with her black shorts, as well as a bag for her ninja utensils. Himawari.
"Himawari, welcome" Naruto proclaimed. "You'll be joining Shikadai on an S-ranked mission. I think the two of you will be perfect for the task."
