I Do Not Own Naruto

Sakura could handle a lot of things in life, in fact the more things were thrown her way, the more she found herself handling it but that wasn't what she was feeling as she read over the document the Fourth Hokage; a man she viewed as an uncle, handed her. In fact, reading this document made her want to scream and run for the hills as she paled with each passing demand her eyes read and her brain processed. Sasuke was propping her up when she finally sagged from what she was reading and gaped at the Hokage.
"You can't be serious!" she huffed out.
"Very, and the council even signed in agreement."
"B-B-But…" she trembled. "But what about my ANBU career, or medicine, or my training, or the missions!?"
"You and Sasuke will work that out, but if you want to stay in this village and not cause a war Sakura, I suggest you just comply with the demand," the Hokage informed her as she hugged herself and rocked herself while she sat there trembling.
"My family will not approve of this," Sasuke stated as he sat beside her. Sakura didn't argue with him since she knew she had Itachi, Izumi and Sasuke all at her back without a second thought. If she was going to war, then they'd come after her. Uchihas were extremely loyal; almost to the point of obsession. One would never survive long if they got between an Uchiha and that which an Uchiha was loyal too.
"The council has approved," Minato retorted softly and she looked at the kind blonde Hokage then.
"I don't mind having a child," she admitted softly. She wanted a family, she wanted children, and she wanted to have laughter filling her life like it was now. Even with the wars being waged, and the pain of being a kunoichi of the Leaf Sakura wanted a family. However, the part of this she couldn't comply with, it wasn't the time frame, it was the demands that the Harunos had of having a weekend with these hypothetical children twice a month. Sakura couldn't even explain why this bothered her, only that it did, and it bothered her enough to think of having a hysterectomy done. She did not want the Haruno family near any child she may or may not have.
"But I don't want the Haruno family near it," she admitted. A heavy hand rested on her shoulder and she peeked up to her guardian and looked over to her fiancé who was sitting there glaring at Minato.
"We can figure that out later Sakura," Minato admitted.
"I mean it Fouth," she said shakily. "I don't want them near me or any baby I have."
"Sakura, let's not worry about that until you're pregnant," Minato said gently. She felt herself turn red then as she remembered sex was involved in making babies, she peeked over to the Uchiha who looked a little uncomfortable at the mention of pregnancy. Sakura didn't know if Sasuke had or hadn't had sex yet, she knew many of the guys in their age group had, or had experimented a little; however, Sasuke was mum on the subject.
But speaking for herself, she never had sex and she was a little nervous about this. Being a medic she knew how it worked; she wasn't that ignorant, and with a friend like Ino she knew some things about sex; this wasn't to say Ino was a slut, but Ino had dabbled a little. Also, she had read a few of Kakashi's Icha Icha books, so she wasn't completely ignorant as to how sex worked.
Still, there were parts about this she wasn't certain about; she was a medic after all and had seen naked men, and naked women, and she had even birthed babies. What she couldn't figure out was if they would really fit together; she had seen a few penises, and though they were various in size it had always made her curious if it really did fit into women.
Well, she guessed she'd be finding out for herself, which had her looking at her lap as she felt her face heating up dangerously as she twitched a bit at the invasive thoughts of what this timeline was going to do to her life.
Two years to have a child, or become pregnant, Sakura didn't like this, and she didn't know why the Harunos were demanding it.
There was also the matter of her being a jinchūriki, and the last jinchūriki to give birth had been Kushina and that had nearly cost her Kurama and her life. Sakura stiffened as her hand rested on her belly where she could feel Isobu's happy chakra as he snoozed within her at this moment. What would her becoming pregnant do to Isobu? She was already sharing her body with one invader and now she was expected to get pregnant!?
"Wh-what about Isobu?" she asked unsteadily as she looked to the Hokage for answers.
"We will be ready for your birth, we have from the moment we knew you to be pregnant until you have the child to set up a place of sanctuary for you, Tsunade will more than likely insist upon being your midwife, and we will have a sealing team on standby to help you if your seal should… come undone," Minato admitted to her which had her relaxing a little but it didn't stop the slight trembles coursing through her as she sat there staring at the table.
"Can I talk to Kushina about this?" Sakura asked uncertainly. There weren't too many female jinchūrikis in this world, and there had only ever been one other in the Leaf, Sakura wanted to talk to Kushina about a jinchūriki's pregnancy.
"Certainly," Sasuke spoke up for Minato then. She slumped in relief at her fiancé's answer as she read over a few of the other demands for her wedding and her marriage. Sasuke and Kakashi were beside her the entire time.

He could not believe his luck, years of searching for the brat had lead him here and he just could not believe his luck as his lips curled upwards and he sat there thinking about his 'dear little sister'…
No one but that girl knew the truth of who he was, and it appeared the young woman didn't even know what she knew about him as she tried to evade him. A sadistic smile curled his lips, after fifteen years of posing as Haruno Haruki he had finally found what he had been looking for. And even better, she had it within her again, so he could just unleash it and let it do what it should've done the first time.
His head fell back as he sighed.
Fifteen years ago he'd been involved in a plot to destroy the Leaf, the plan had been simple really. They had even targeted one of the Yellow Flash's pupils to ensure that it would work. But he had had a backup plan just in case the first failed.
Which it had.
However, the backup plan had failed as well when Haruno Misaki was missing, now she was here and she had fulfilled her fate by becoming the Three Tails. Oh the sweet mysterious ways the world worked in his favor, now all he needed to do was wait. Wait for her to birth a brat; and when the seal would be at it's weakest, he'd unleash the Three Tails to destroy the village.
The best part of all this…
No one had noticed that the real Haruno Haruki had died sixteen years ago and he was just a mere interloper. He was in the perfect striking position, now he'd just need to wait and be patient. He could do that…
After all, he had been Haruno Haruki for sixteen years, what was a few more?

Sasuke hadn't been thrilled to be told he and Sakura needed to have a child or be expecting a child within the first two years of his marriage to Sakura, but he had been more uncertain about her reaction. Sakura took to someone's dictations about as well as the ocean took to being told to hold still; it never went over well for them. Which was really the only reason he had been uncertain about this particular dictation. But when she had turned red at the word pregnancy and given him and uncertain look before refusing to look at him it had hit him.
He was going to have to have sex with her to get her pregnant.
While the thought was something he liked, because honestly he was relatively certain that Sakura was his type of woman and he found he liked her; it also had him uncertain.
Sasuke hadn't had time for sex, girls, or the regular teenage antics; he'd admit that. It wasn't that sex wasn't something that hadn't crossed his mind or something he hadn't thought about; it was he literally had no time for that nonsense. And besides, in his spare time he was usually hanging out with Naruto and Sakura; that's just the way it was, and he doubted it was going to change anytime soon.
But seriously, he didn't have time in life for girls or their frivolous wants, he just didn't.
He was a jonin of the ANBU ranks, he took some of the worst missions ranging from assassinations to toppling governments and annihilating armies. When he wasn't on missions for solo he was on missions with Sai, Naruto or Sakura, and those were various in tasks. When he wasn't on a group mission or his solo missions and Naruto, Sakura and he weren't going rogue and decimating mountain ranges, he was training with Itachi or Kakashi, or squads of ANBU to hone his skills. And when he wasn't doing any of that, he was probably babysitting Isamu for Itachi and Izumi, or hanging out with Naruto and Sakura.
And face, he didn't have much free time!
He was Kakashi's favorite to send off on solo dark missions, along with Sai, and that actually could have him away for months at a time. He'd been doing that since he was fifteen and Sakura had been helping the dobe with Kurama. Did his friends know where he went for months on end? No, he didn't tell them, and they just guessed it was training.
What they didn't know was he'd been a jonin since he had been fourteen and a part of the ANBU ranks since he was fifteen and worked directly for Kakashi and Minato since then.
So, in his defense, while sex was something of a curiosity to him, he was way too fucking busy to actually be interested in it. And now it appeared he was going to be having a crash course in sex; Sasuke decided he was going to be reading a lot of Kakashi's smut books rather than bring up his virginity problem with his friends.
Sasuke looked at his blushing pink fiancé and smirked, this was going to be interesting; he guessed.
"Any other demands of theirs' we should comply with?" Sasuke asked as he sat there lazily, schooling his features to hide what he was thinking about from the other men in the room.
"No, but we'll work out the demands for visitations rights when you and Sakura actually have a child," Minato admitted.
"What will this do for our… jobs?" he asked. He couldn't be sent off for months on end if Sakura was here and pregnant. That was actually the reason Itachi had resigned from the ANBU, and Sasuke wasn't giving up his position in the ANBU; he was too good at what he did to want to give it up.
"We'll discuss that when Sakura is actually pregnant, no point in worrying about things like that until the obstacle is actually there," Minato informed him.
"Hn," he replied with a nod then. Sakura relaxed a bit too.
He felt a little guilty then for not telling her the full extent of his jobs in the ANBU, but he didn't want her to look at him for the monster he was, so he just decided he'd keep silent about what it was he really did without the group around. He'd speak to Kakashi as well about keeping what he did from Sakura after their marriage.
That's all for now folks!
Enjoy Blooming in Darkness! =)
