with Lee...

He had been dating a sweet young village girl for some time now and had already asked her to marry him. She was already pregnant with their first child and he was very happy. He had come to realize while he had been in the hospital, that what he had felt for Sakura had been a childhood infatuation that he had carried over into their older days. When he heard of Sakura's unfortunate circumstances, instead of feeling glee or hate, he felt nothing but pity for her. The mean things you do to people , they say, often had a way of catching up with you.

with Sasuke...

Sasuke walked home that evening and went into the house. He found Sakura making tea as usual, pretending that nothing had happened earlier. Her eyes were red and swollen, a dead giveaway that she had been crying. She turned to him and looked at him fearfully.

"G-good evening Sasuke." she said hesitantly.

"Hn." he answered, sitting down on a nearby chair. "Sit down Sakura, we need to talk."

The girl paled but sat down. "I guess you want a divorce now." she said tiredly. " its fine , I wont object."

"No." said Sasuke surprising her. "We are staying married for now. I already have heirs anyway, I just need to find them."

Sakura nodded. "I'm so sorry Sasuke." she said tearfully.

"Hn, don't be. Its not your fault so let it go. This is one of the risks in being a kunoichi." sasuke said. " it will all work out somehow."

Sakura gave him a sad smile before finishing her tea. She had just made a new goal for herself, find Naruto and the kids and bring them back to make up for what she did.

with Naruto...

(four months prior to Sakura's revelation)

the day after the delivery...

Naruto woke up to find Zetsu standing over the babies arguing to himself. Apparently both sides were disagreeing on which of the babies were cuter, the black haired ones or the blondes. He had been on a mission when Naruto had gone into labor and had just arrived. Naruto turned to Itachi who was lying next to him and smiled when he noticed him keeping an eagle eye on Zetsu with the babies.

"Unlike you they don't bite Zetsu." Naruto said startling the two toned man from out of his argument with himself.

Zetsu turned around and looked over at Naruto. "The dark haired ones are cute." said the black side. "No the blonde ones ." said the white side.

Naruto grinned as he watched him argue on out the door. Then Naruto got up and created four clones and sent one off to go make the formula. Then he took the babies up and began to change their diapers with his clones' assistance. Itachi watched all this intently and Naruto grinned when he noticed that his sharingan was out and working.

"Tachi-chan, you're copying how to change Diapers?" he asked laughing.

"Hn" Itachi responded. "I have to learn so that I can help you and this is the easiest way."

Naruto blushed but nodded and felt pleased when he saw Itachi watching him feed the babies intently. The Uchiha even followed him around the whole day, learning how to take care of them. Naruto and the others found it cute and the fox kits Taki and Tori kept snickering about it.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

two weeks later...

Naruto had been completely healed since two days after the delivery but it had been such a busy time that he and Itachi hadn't gotten any alone time. The babies had grown a lot in the two weeks and actually looked like six month old babies, much to Kyu's and Naruto's delight.

That night he decided to be claimed completely by his new mate and had been planning for it all day. He put the babies to bed in their own room and created four clones to babysit them, then he got his things for the bath together and sauntered over to Itachi.

"Tachi-koi, wanna join me in the hotsprings?" he asked sexily , giving Itachi a 'come hither' look.

Itachi's eyes widened as all his brain cells went down to his groin. "Hn." he agreed and shunshined to his room to get his things.

When he came back he grabbed Naruto and teleported them to the springs, not wanting to waste a single minute. Naruto giggled and slowly undressed, teasing Itachi as he did so before slipping into the water. Itachi who had been so entranced before, undressed in record time and followed him in. He reached for Naruto but the kitsune wanted to play. He moved out of range giggling as he did so and jumped when Itachi caught up to him and grabbed him. The Uchiha pulled the giggling kitsune into his arms and turned him around to face him.

"Ouch!" Naruto yelped at the resounding slap that landed on his naked derriere.

"Never try to run from me again." itachi told him seriously. "You're mine my little kitsune.

Naruto pouted but nodded.. Itachi captured his lips and began to explore the warm wetness that laid within. As he mapped the inviting contours of his mouth, Naruto moaned in delight. Itachi rubbed their erections together between them as Naruto wrapped his arms around him. Then Itachi broke the kiss and moved to the side of his neck, licking the mating mark before placing little butterfly kisses all over him. That was actually the only scar that the boy had on his body and it was obvious that the Kyuubi was very vain and refused to let the boy's body be marked up in any way. Itachi found it all extremely sexy so it didn't really matter though.

He moved his lips down to his right nipple and began to lave it with his tongue, sucking and licking much to the blonde's delight. Naruto moaned in pleasure as he felt the heat pooling in his groin. He reveled in Itachi's almond and vanilla scent, the same scent that had been driving him crazy for months now and all he wanted to do was lick every inch of the older man, exploring that pale and sexy body. Just then Itachi switched to the other nipple as his hand pinched the other and Naruto shivered, purring in pleasure.

"Nyaah Tachi-koi." Naruto gasped out when Itachi finally moved down to take the tip of his erection into his mouth.

He groaned and whimpered in painful pleasure when Itachi inserted two fingers deep inside him and began to stretch him as they moved in and out.

"More please koi." Naruto begged as Itachi began to slide his delicate length in and out of his mouth, over and over, gripping his black-haired man's head as he arched his back and pushed his rod deeper into his mouth.

Itachi sucked hard, glad to finally be able to truly pleasure the man he had always loved. He began humming as he took more of the boy's cock into his mouth, stopping occasionally to torture the slit with his tongue as he finger fucked him. The boy began to purr even louder and his body vibrated the way a cat's would the more excited he got. He applied a bit of teeth to his erection and Naruto exploded with a growl, pumping all he had into Itachi's welcoming mouth. Itachi quickly swallowed and removed his fingers from his portal before getting up to hold the shivering boy.

"Bend over the side of the spring." he told him, assisting the satiated boy into doing so.

Then he stopped to admire the view of the kitsune-boy bending over, his derriere sticking up in the air as his nine tails swished around. One of his kitsune ears flattened as he waited for Itachi to take him. His body still shivering from his earth shattering orgasm. Then the boy turned to look at Itachi who was busy copying the image into his mind ,and Itachi almost came.

"Take me Tachi-koi." Naruto said cutely, looking like the perfect uke just waiting to be ravished.

Itachi moaned involuntarily and got behind him. Naruto's tails laid down flat on his back so that they wouldn't be in Itachi's way. When Itachi began to slide in, the tails stood on end and the ears pricked up as Naruto whimpered and moaned. Itachi gently slid in until he was firmly seated inside him. Naruto's entire body began to vibrate again and Itachi had to grit his teeth in order to hold on long enough to give him time to adjust. Then he finally began to move and the vibrations increased as he pounded into him. His sharingan was out now in full-force against his will at the pleasure that the boy was giving him. He couldn't get deep enough in his opinion into the tight, hot and wet vibrating portal of the boy.

"Oh yes , more Tachi-koi." Naruto gasped out, pushing back to meet him as he caressed him with his tails.

Itachi leaned down to jerk Naruto in time with his thrust, rubbing his slit occasionally and making the boy growl and purr even more. He rammed into him as hard as he could , needing more of the delicious pleasure running threw his body. As the furry tails flicked over his body and touched his nipples, the Uchiha actually screamed as he exploded deep inside the boy.

Naruto felt the warm liquid flooding him and lost it , he came again, covering Itachi's hand with his cum. Itachi stayed in his tight portal for a few more minutes trying to catch his breath. He felt the boy's portal vibrating and moaned. He pulled out and turned the boy around before picking him up, sliding back into that welcoming heat. Then he began fucking him hard with his renewed arousal and the boy wrapped his arms around him and hung on for dear life as he took it hard and fast, wrapping his legs around Itachi's bucking hips.

"Fuck me Tachi! Harder!" the boy ordered as he was being pounded into, pushing down to meet each violent thrust.

"Naruto!" Itachi gasped out as he impaled him on his thrusting cock.

"Nyaah!" Naruto screamed as he came again, the friction on his dick between them giving him all he needed and covering their chests with his essence.

Itachi felt the boys inner walls tightening around him as they vibrated and he came again, groaning loudly as he flooded the boy with his cum. Naruto slumped on him for a minute as Itachi tried to catch his breath. He felt the boy still vibrating around him and groaned, he was gonna expire from pleasure instead of by the hunter- nins after him.

Naruto felt him hardening again and his eyes widened. "Tachi-koi, again and so soon?" he asked surprised.

Itachi gave him and Uchiha smirk. Feeling proud that his brother had never managed to do it so soon again and again by Naruto's reaction. He carried the boy all while still inside him and laid on his back with the boy straddling him. Naruto flushed as he took the hint and began to ride the large cock inside him. His last sober thought before getting into it was that it was gonna be a long night.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

meanwhile with pain and the others...

They had heard Itachi's uncharacteristical scream and hurried out to see what was wrong, thinking that he had been attacked. When they saw what was going on they couldn't believe it.

"So that's why he screamed un." said Deidara, trying hard not to laugh.

"The kitsune must be really good to get ice-price to actually lose his Uchiha cool and scream." said Kisame chuckling.

"wow, Itachi sure has stamina to do it again so soon." said Konan, getting into it. "And who would have thought that Itachi had such a great body under all that clothes and such pale and beautiful skin. And I cant believe that Naruto's skin is actually so flawless, that just so wrong."

"I was wondering when he would give in." said Zetsu grabbing Tobi. "Well I have things to take care of so see you in the morning." he told them and left with Tobi.

"This is better than Icha Icha." said Kisame settling in to enjoy the show and Deidara nodded in agreement as he made himself comfortable as well.

Konan looked as if she was about to but one look from Pain (#1) changed her mind. "I'll see you in the morning guys." she said to the others.

"Well seeing as he is obviously fine, I think I'll call it a night." said Pain walking away with a firm grip on Konan's arm.

As soon as he was back in his room , he deposited her on the bed and began to strip. "So lets see how much stamina I have shall we." he told her.

Konan smirked at him. She had known that he would react that way and was actually inwardly snickering at him for taking the bait. All laughing stopped as she saw the look on his face, it was gonna be a long night.

Zetsu closed the door to his room and looked over at Tobi. He was gonna be having a good night with his 'good boy'.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

meanwhile...

In Konoha...

Three months after Naruto left ...

(Midnight)

with Hinata and Hanabi...

The two sisters snuck out of the compound as soon as everyone else had retired for the night and went to an old training ground on the edge of Konoha. Unknown to them Hiashi was following close by, wanting to seewhere his daughters were sneaking off to every night.

He watched as the two sisters trained together and sparred until early morning in surprise. Hinata was using the (Hakke Rokujuu Yonshou) Divination Field fighting style. Something that he had thought she was unable to learn. It was the advanced style of their hyuga technique and he couldn't believe it. Hanabi was actually being taught by her older sister at how to use it. He watched as they helped each other and learned from each other in a combined effort. He also noticed that Hinata hadn't stuttered even once while they spoke and actually spoke in a clear and calm voice that exuded confidence and determination. Then they did the basic form of Taijutsu and saw when Hanabi took out a small scroll and showed something to her sister. The younger girl then began explaining about the techniques on the scroll and they both talked about them for a while before returning to training.

When they were ready to leave, Hiashi teleported back to the estate before they arrived and sat on his bed. He thought about what he had seen and heard tonight. He couldn't believe the change that he had seen in his older child and felt a bit ashamed at the way he had always treated her. He couldn't understand why he had always subconsciously blamed her for his brother's death when she had been just a child. He began to wonder what else he didn't know about his older daughter and decided to be much nicer to her from now on.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

the next morning...

They were all having breakfast when he decided to try and be nice to her.

"You have gotten better at training lately Hinata, that is good." he told her, actually looking directly at her for a change.

Hinata looked at him warily as if wondering what brought this on but answered none the less. "Thank you father b-but I'm sure that Hanabi was m-much better." She told him shyly, looking down at the ground.

He looked at her and noticed her shy and timid manner while speaking to him and inwardly frowned. Was this what he had reduced her to? Was it his fault for make her feel uncertain and unworthy of his regard? For the first time, he regretted passing her off to Kurenai as if she were nothing. He remembered the words he had spoken to Kurenai that day and wondered if Hinata had heard them.

Her gaze flickered suddenly towards him before looking back down and he realized then that she had heard him that day. He thought of her answer just now and realized that she had compared herself to Hanabi. Over the next few hours every time they spoke and he complimented her, she got more and more timid and passed the compliment off to Hanabi. He had only barely listened to what she actually said when she spoke in the past and he was beginning to realize that she compared herself with every sentence she spoke to him with Hanabi as if she was of no consequence. He thought about the things he had always said to her and about her and realized that he had always done the same thing too, belittling her existence.

That night he decided to follow them again and see what would happen. The two sister reached the training grounds again but instead of beginning to train like they did the night before , Hinata and Hanabi began to speak, surprisingly about him.

"Did you notice that HE was acting strange today?" Hinata asked her.

Hanabi nodded. "Yes I did. Why was he suddenly paying so much attention to you? He has never done that before." she said.

Hinata frowned. "I don't know but I think he is up to something or suspects something at least. Today he actually looked at me, something he hasn't done since the day his brother was killed. Its very strange on unnerving to say the least." she said.

"Yes I know but maybe he is trying to reach out to you and form a closer relationship with you. You know, bridge the gap between you two." Hanabi said thoughtfully, but Hinata shook her head.

"Don't be silly Hanabi, HE would never do that. Besides their isn't enough trees in this village to build a bridge that long. HE hates me and you know it." Hinata said plainly.

"I don't know niichan, besides why do you hardly ever call him father when we are alone?" Hanabi asked.

"Because he has never really been one to me, just you. The day when he so coldly dumped me on Kurenai-sensei I realized that I didn't matter to him. As time went by I trained so hard to overcome my flaws so that he would notice me but he never did. When he finally started to train you I knew then that I had no chance. He would always criticize me and compare me to you. Do you know that whenever I was about to go on a mission he would always tell me to try to be useful and not be a hindrance to my teammates? No Hanabi, I could move a whole mountain and he wouldn't notice. I hate the fact that Naruto is gone, he was the only one who understood what it felt like to be me , to be hated for even existing. Father will always hate me but that's okay, I gave up on his ever loving me a long time ago." she told her sister. "Now lets get back to training, it wont stay dark forever."

Hanabi nodded and they began to train. Hiashi who had heard everything that Hinata had said was feeling a ashamed and heartbroken. He finally realized how Hinata must have felt when he discarded her so casually for her younger sister.

He began to wonder if he would ever be able to reach her , if he even had a chance. That night he returned home and stayed up until morning wondering how to deal with the situation. The way she spoke of him had hurt and the fact that she barely called him father or saw him that way hurt even more. Seeing Hinata tonight, there was no doubt that she had the potential in her to lead the family. He silently wondered what she would say if he told her that he felt that way. He decided to test that theory the next day.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

the next morning...

Hiashi called Hinata into his private sitting room to speak with her alone. She obediently came in and sat down subserviently and waited for him to speak after greeting him. She didn't even look at him but kept her head down they way she always did in his presence and he realized that because he never looked at her, she had taken to not looking at him either.

"How are you Hinata?" he asked her and he noticed that she visibly tensed.

He realized then that he had never really asked her that face to face before, if ever.

"I-I am fine father, thank you for asking." she said formally , never once looking at him.

"That's good to know Hinata. I have been thinking lately that perhaps you would make a good head of the clan after all." he said and was a bit taken aback by her reaction.

Hinata looked up at him briefly before putting her head back down submissively. "I-I think that Hanabi would b-be m-much better father since you have been training her for so long. I-I know that I am not fit for the position because of my w-weak will." she stuttered out.

Hiashi looked at her for a few minutes then nodded. "Very well Hinata, you may go." he told her.

Thank you f-father." she stuttered out and got up.

She walked towards the door and paused for a bit and turn to look at him when she taught he had turned away . He saw the same expression she had had earlier when he made that suggestion and finally realized what it was. It was hate and disgust and it chilled him to the bone.

That night he went to watch them again to here what they would say to each other. As before, they stopped to talk before beginning to train.

"So I heard father called you into his sitting room today." Hanabi began. "What was it that he wanted?"

Hinata frowned. "He wanted to tell me that he thought I would make a good clan leader after all." she said , her voice dripping with venom.

Hanabi gasped at that . "do you want to?" she asked curiously.

To her surprise Hinata shook her head. "No I don't. Years ago I did but I don't anymore." she said coldly. "Face it Hanabi we may not be extinct like the Uchiha clan but we may as well be. We enslave our own kin and discard our children as if they are nothing if they don't fit up to the standards that we set. I actually pity you for being the heir instead of me as I wouldn't wish this on anyone . You will become the head of the clan and we will never be the way we are now to each other as you will become cold , heartless and cruel like our father. I really do pity you." she confessed.

Hanabi said nothing and they began to train. Meanwhile Hiashi was being ripped to shreds by the words Hinata had just said. Was that really how he was ? Cold, heartless and cruel? As soft voice inside him said yes he was. He went home and sat on his bed, wondering what to do now.
