Haruna smiled happily: Well, chapter six, who would have thought we would come this far?

Yuko waves: Me, I knew Tachi-kun and me would come this far.

Haruna looked to the sides: Where is he anyway?

Yuko smiled nervously: I sort of left him back at the house with Sasuke, I told him I was going to visit my dad.

Naruto pops in: Please read and review! Now on with the show!

Chapter Six

Naruto ran to the fallen Yuko. "Yuko!"

The now sick Yuko laid in Naruto's arms unconscious. She was breathing rapidly as she winced.

Without any other thought to what to do, Naruto tried to pick up Yuko. "Come on Naruto, you have to pick up Yuko and get her to the hospital. She'll die if no one treats her." A sudden dizziness hit Naruto, the same thing that hit Yuko. He fell to his knees and then passed out beside Yuko.

After a few hours, Naruto began to regain conscious. His head was slightly hurting as he groaned.

"Ow . . . What was that about?" He opened his eyes and found himself in the hospital. He slowly sat up and looked around. Beside his bed, another bed stood about a few feet away. Yuko was laying inside, still unconscious. Her bed was beside the window, the light of the moon hitting her a bit. "Yuko!"

The black haired girl didn't move. She remained in the bed, breathing soundly.

Naruto tried getting out the bed but felt a sharp pain. "Ah!" Still determined to get to Yuko, Naruto took small steps towards her bed. He held against the wall as he almost made it. "Come on, almost there . . . a little more." He finally reached the bed and looked at Yuko. He could see that she was in pain a few hours ago but now she was calm. "Yuko, please wake up."

"Hmm . . ." Yuko began to react to the sound of Naruto's voice. She slowly opened her eyes, looking right at Naruto. "Naru-chan?"

He smiled with tears in his eyes. He was glad to see her alive and well. "Yuko, I'm so happy that you're okay."

She gave a week smile. "I'm still sleepy Naruto. Are you feeling like that too?"

He nodded. "Yeah, weird huh? Both of us feel the same way." He walked back to the bed and laid down. "Maybe a good night sleep will help."

As both Uchiha slept for about two more hours, Tsunade and the Uchiha brothers came in.

Tsunade, looking worried, watched as Sasuke and Itachi stood beside the bed's of their loved ones. "Someone had drugged them while they were eating. If it hadn't been for both the nine tailed fox and the two faced Shima, they would have been kidnapped right on the stand. Shikamaru and Neji were in the area when it happened. If it weren't for them either, Yuko and Naruto would have gotten worse."

Sasuke held Naruto's hand as he sat on the bed. "Do you know who tried to take them?"

"I have no idea, I suppose someone figured out that they were pregnant and then tried to take them. I have not leaked this information to anyone, so I am guessing someone is watching them while Itachi and you are out on missions." Said Tsunade calmly. "I suppose this was something to expect, those two are carrying the next generation of Uchiha, which is something important."

"I could care less to who knows." Spoke Itachi calmly as he looked at Yuko sleep. "The entire village might as well know if it means Yuko being safe, I am willing to tell everyone."

"But Itachi, the village is just getting used to having you and Sasuke around as it is. I know that you're upset but understand that only one person is after Yuko and Naruto. If we go public with this, more people will attempt to take them." She said in a worried tone. "Yuko may not like me as much, but I know what is best for her. She is at risk if her pregnancy is leaked out to the village along with Naruto's."

He ignored Tsunade and touched Yuko's stomach. He looked at the sleeping Yuko with caring eyes. "Has she eaten anything?"

"We don't know . . ."

"Then how are you sure they were drugged?" Sasuke questioned.

"It is the only explanation to why they fainted the way they did." She replied.

"Tachi-kun?"

All the attention went to the waking Yuko.

The half awake Yuko opened her eyes half way and looked at Itachi. She gave a gentle smile as she touched his hand that was on her stomach. She was happy that he was with her. "You came." Her voice sounded tired and out of energy.

"Yuko, did someone give you something?" Asked Tsunade sternly.

She looked at the 55 year old woman who hid her true face in the body of a 20 year old. "What are you doing here?" She gently sat up from the hospital bed. Her long black hair, almost close to the color of the Uchiha's, was touching the bed mattress as she looked at her mother. "Was it you who brought me here?"

"Neji Hyuuga was the one who brought you. Shikamaru Nara brought Naruto, they both saved you." Replied her mother. "You should be grateful to them."

She leaned against Itachi and felt him embrace her. "Neji-kun is a dear friend to me, he and I understand one another quite well. He is one of the few friends I have." She looked at Tsunade. "Is my baby okay?"

"Fine . . . You should have been more careful though." Stated Tsunade. "We have no idea what happened to you back there, did anyone give you something to eat? Did someone offer you a drink?"

"A drink?" Yuko's voice, like always when not made, was gentle and calm. "I don't think so."

"Well, Naruto and you both suffered from the same thing. Luckily, we had something to give you and then you two just slept the whole thing off. Itachi and Sasuke came to me a few hours ago telling me that you and Naruto were not home. You should have thought before you left home, you both should have told someone." Argued the Hokage.

"There was no one to tell." Naruto sat up from the bed. "It was my idea grandma Tsunade, don't blame Yuko for it. I wanted to go out and eat something. Yuko was nice enough to come with me so that I wouldn't be alone."

"Naruto." Sasuke touched his cheek. "You okay? Did you get hurt?"

"Sasuke!" The crying blond hugged him and cried. "I got so scared when Yuko fainted, when I tried to move her, I got this headache and then I went dizzy. The next thing I knew I was here." Naruto hugged Sasuke tighter. "I thought I was gonna die!"

Sasuke patted him on the back gently. "You're okay now dobe, I'm here and everything is just fine. You don't have to cry over something that wasn't your fault. I'm only glad that nothing serious happened."

"But Sasuke, why does Tsunade Baa-chan treat Yuko so mean? Tsunade should be nice to Yuko, not mean." Naruto began to cough.

He touched Naruto's forehead. "You have a little fever." He got off the bed and stretched his arms out to Naruto. "Come on dobe, time to go home and set get you to bed."

Naruto put his arms around Sasuke's neck and allowed him to carry him. "Okay."

Itachi stood up from the bed with Yuko in his arms. "You as well Yuko. A hospital is no place for you."

Yuko blushed and relaxed. "Yes Tachi-kun."

The fifth Hokage looked at them. "You aren't seriously taking them from here are you?"

"Leaving them here would be pointless." Itachi and Sasuke left the room and made their way home.

XxX

Once home, Itachi and Sasuke laid their loved ones in bed and made sure they were comfy and warm. After two days with a fever and drinking nothing but soup, Yuko and Naruto were better. What had happened was that the ramen had been too strong for their stomach and made them weak, so now they were prohibited from eating it until giving birth. Yuko took it well, she ate nothing but fruits and lots of tea, while Naruto, went insane to a point. He wanted ramen, it was his food, the only thing he would eat. After going through an hour lecture from Yuko that others food were necessary in order to have a healthy pregnancy, he gave in and decided to eat what she ate.

XxX

Time went by and now the pregnant Uchiha's were four months pregnant. Yuko and Naruto could no longer hide it because it was impossible now. A few people started catching on and some figured it out. After all, they would find Sasuke and Itachi looking at baby things from time to time, so hiding it was useless if confronted.

"This SUCKS!!" Shouted Naruto from his and Sasuke's room. "Why am I fatter than Yuko?!"

A very cranky and sleepy Yuko slammed in the room. "Naru-chan! You're having twins, DEAL WITH IT!" This was in fact Yuko on a bad day. Her mood swings were violent, nice, sweet, strong, painful, and sometimes scary. But this morning, she had had enough from Naruto's mood swings as well. "If you're so upset, make someone else have your kids!"

Naruto began to cry childishly. "I'm sorry Yu-chan!" Yu-chan was a new nickname Naruto made for Yuko since he didn't like calling her by her entire name. To his surprise, she liked it too. "I didn't mean to shout."

"Idiot!" She walked, well waddled, down the hall and into the kitchen. She sat down and touched her large stomach. "Two more months and you'll be here. Oh how I can't wait to meet you." She smiled happily, knowing her baby was hearing her every word. "You'll look just like your daddy, I just know it."

A sudden knock at the door could be heard.

She got up and walked to the door. She opened it and saw an Anbu standing there with the mask on. She could tell it was a woman but her face was hidden. "Itachi isn't home." She spoke.

"I'm here to see you Yuko." Said the woman. She took off her mask and revealed short brown hair, amethyst eyes which was a shade of purple. The woman smiled at Yuko. "Yuko, it's been years since I last saw you."

Yuko's eyes grew wide, she looked at the woman in front of her with happy and relieved eyes. "Hikari?"

"And the light bulb turns on at last." Hikari hugged her old friend and laughed happily. "Would you look at you, you're having a baby, Itachi Uchiha's baby from what I heard."

"I'm so very happy Hikari, now that you're here, I'm twice as happy." She pulled her friend inside the house. "Please tell me how you got here. I want to know everything."

They walked to the garden and sat down beside the small pond.

Hikari looked at the sky, admiring the clouds. "I had thought I was a goner when two months went by after I left. I had been roaming from village to village, trying to find some where to stay. Most of the time, I trained and became stronger than what I once was. I cut my hair and gave myself a new look. One night, I was attacked by rouge ninja's and I had to flee. I don't know how but I made it here, I floated down the river and found myself on someone's back. He was tall and had his hair picked up, I guess he was a chunin at the time, but what ever he was, I remember him being handsome and kind." Hikari began to blush for a slight moment. "Then before I knew what was going on, I woke up in a hospital and he had sent me flowers. I never got his name, so I was unable to return my kindness to him."

"So how did you end up living here?"

"It was Naruto and his friends. They defended me to the Hokage, they said I needed a home and that here was the best place for it. So after a while, I was accepted here and given the position of a squad leader, after a year, I was promoted as Anbu and that's where I've been ever since now. Two years of being Anbu and I like it." Hikari gently rubbed Yuko's stomach. "So do you know what gender the little Uchiha will be?"

Yuko only smiled happily, she knew that her baby would be loved, loved by her, loved by Itachi, and loved by many others. "It's a boy."

"Oh my goodness, that's wonderful news, Yuko. Having a baby boy is just what the Uchiha family needs." Her friend smiled happily with the news given. "I'm sure he'll look just like you."

"I'd really like it if he took after his father in looks but after Sasuke in attitude. I want our son to be loved like Itachi, Naru-chan, and Sasuke were suppose to. He should be allowed to make mistakes and be forgiven for them, this is what this family has chosen for Riku Uchiha." She smiled and got up. "Hikari, i'm so happy to know that we live in the same village. From now on, we will see eachother more."

Hikari nodded and left shortly after.

Yuko smiled happily, knowing that life was now better for her. "Today has gone so smoothly, no problems or anything." She let out a yawn and headed for the kitchen where her favorite food was located. She opened the cabinet and took out the small contaner with many fruits inside. She looked at the fruits and smiled. "Itachi makes these just for me, can i ask for a better husband than him?"

"We're home." Called Sasuke. "Naruto, are you awake? I got you something."

As quick as could be imagined, Naruto walked by the kitchen and hugged the love of his life. "Welcome home Sasuke, i missed you so much."

Sasuke smiled as Itachi stood beside him. "Dobe, let Itachi get by, he has to see Yuko."

Naruto slightly moved.

Yuko walked out of the kitchen with a piece of apple in her mouth. She looked up at Itachi and smiled happily. She covered her mouth when remembering the piece of food. "Welcome back Tachi-kun."

Itachi moved Yuko in his arms and touched her large stomach. "Hello Yuko and hello Riku."
