~ Back at The Leaf Village ~
Asuma returns to the leaf village with his team minus Aria and rushes directly into the Hokage's office. Tsunade asks angry, "What is the reason for this disruption Asuma?" He says, "I'm sorry Lady Tsunade but I've lost a student on this mission."
Tsunade yells, "You what?" she looks around the office, and sees everyone but Aria, "You lost Aria?" Asuma hangs his head, and says, "Yes Lady Tsunade she wasn't feeling well so she went to the local clinic disguised as a local I thought she would be fine on her own."
Tsunade asks really angry, "How could you let her go by herself Asuma?" He replies, "We're talking Aria Tsunade she excels at blending in I didn't think it was necessary for her to have an escort."
Tsunade pounds on her desk, and says, "Damn it now I have to tell Jiraiya his daughter is missing. Did you check the clinic to find out what was wrong with her?"
Asuma responds, "Yes, I did but they wouldn't give me the information the only thing they would tell me was to have Kakashi Hatake call the clinic for the information."
Tsunade yells, "Shizune get Kakashi Hatake in here at once! Shizune says, "Yes, Lady Tsunade right away" she takes off to get Kakashi.
Iruka barrages into the office saying,"Lady Tsunade this letter written in code came for you, it looks important so I rushed it here."
Kakashi rushes into the office, and asks, "You wanted to see me lady Tsunade?" She says, "Yes, I want you to call this clinic, and find out what was wrong with Aria."
Kakashi yells, "WHAT wait she got sick while on the mission?" Tsunade responds, "Yes, Kakashi now hurry up, and call all ready."
Kakashi makes the phone call while Tsunade opens the letter. Tsunade says, "Iruka take this to the code breakers I'm not familiar with this code on the double."
Kakashi hangs up the phone, and notices the code on the letter so he says, "Wait I know this code I could tell you what it says."
Tsunade says, "I want to know what the clinic said first Kakashi." He responds, "They said that she was fine and that the morning sickness should pass soon."
Tsunade asks angry, "Morning sickness Kakashi Hatake what have you, and her been doing?" Kakashi rubs the back of his head, and says, "Umm…Uh…shouldn't I decode this letter first lady Tsunade?"
She sighs saying, "Fine decode it." then she turns to Iruka, and says, "I want you to go, and get Jiraiya bring him here right away. Iruka says, "Right away Lady Tsunade" he takes off to get Jiraiya.
~ The Note Reads ~
My dearest Kakashi,
Since you made this code up I am sure that you are reading this. As you may, or may not know I'm about two months pregnant with our child.
What you don't know is that I was kidnapped by Kabuto on lord Orochimaru's orders. He wants our baby he thinks that it will have your Sharingan eye, and wants to use our baby's body for his own. I have managed to escape to the Land of rice where there's a kind old man helping me.
It's not very safe here so I don't know how long I'll be staying but I'm not sure I can get all the way home to the leaf village with Orochimaru's men looking for me, and in my current condition. I'll love you always, and I'll take great care of myself, and our baby. I miss you a lot and think of you every day. I hope we can be together again soon.
Love,
Aria
XOXO
