Riley: DAMN STRAIT!
XXXXXXXX
Everything was dead silence in the room.
But of course, for one man, that just wouldn't fly…
"WHERE IS MY SON?!?" Screamed a man from down the hall. The Sixth Hokage burst through the Hospital room, his face was slightly red from anger and worry. He quickly ran over to his son's bed and gave him a comforting hug.
"Dad!!" Mikaiyo exclaimed
"I'm sorry I wasn't there… I had to go to Suna for an emergency meeting. Are you okay?" Naruto asked
"I'm okay. Just a little… shaken." Mikaiyo said.
Naruto sighed in relief. "I wouldn't have been able to forgive myself if anything happened…"

When Kai arrived home, she immediately flopped on the couch in the living room and her mother went to make a quick dinner. Sasuke walked into the house behind them and stopped before entering the living room to admire his daughter. She still looked like the little pink angle he held so carefully six years ago. He quietly walked into the room and sat beside her head, brushing the hair out of her face. She slowly opened her eyes, gazing up into her father's.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to wake you." He said
"No, I was awake." She said, still looking deep into his eyes. This reminded her…
"Oh! Daddy, I have to show you something!" She exclaimed, sitting up to face him. She closed her eyes.
"What are you doing?" he asked
"Sharingan!" She exclaimed, opening her eyes, revealing red irises and black swirls.
Sasuke started at his daughter in awe, before enveloping her in a tight hug. "It must have been scary for you to have awakened your Sharingan so young." He whispered.
"It was, but you're happy right? You're proud of me?" she asked
Sasuke looked at her and smiled. "I'm always proud of you."

Mikaiyo sat in his bed, in his own room, for the first time in what seemed like forever. It felt so good to be home. As soon as Lady Tsunade had cleared him and let him go home, his Dad scooped him up on his shoulders and brought him back. His mom made some Ramen for dinner, his – and his dad's- favorite and he went to bed.
And now he felt like he could be a six year old for a while, after trying to be the grown up, fixing what ever had happened. Heck, he wasn't sure if that even really happened Maybe it was all just a dream.
Naruto opened his door a creek. "Knock Knock." He said
"Come in." Mikaiyo said
Naruto walked over to his son's bed and lay down next to him, putting his arm around his shoulders to pull him closer. "Long day?" he asked
"Felt more like three." Mikaiyo answered.
Naruto leaned his head down to whisper in his son's ear. "I remember."
"What?"
"The night of the Attack of the Weasel, when I was in my mindscape, begging the old fox to help me try harder to stay, I remember a little boy calling me 'Tousan" and running into my arms. I knew right away it was you. You saved me that night Mikaiyo." He said
"Th-then, that means…"
"A few days after, I looked into some kind of jutsu that involved time travel. It's a rare Keke Genkai in Tamaki's family. And today when I heard about it, I skipped the meeting and transported right back here because I knew what had happened. It all makes sense know." Naruto explained
"Wow… it's amazing how time travel can change so much…" Mikaiyo said in awe.
Naruto and Mikaiyo lay in silence until Mikaiyo fell asleep. Naruto carefully moved off the bed and out of the room, closing the door behind him.
"Is he asleep?" Hinata whispered
"Yeah, poor kid's wiped out." Naruto said.
The couple walked into their living room and sat in each other's arms.
"He gave me such a scare." Hinata said..
"I know. I know how hard it's going to be for him if there are still a few people out there that are against him." He kissed Hinata on top of her head. "But I will protect him next time. I just regret not being in there."
"He doesn't blame you. I'm sure he knows how much you are needed around the shinobi world. But most of all I'm sure he understands how strong your love is for this village and him. That you would be willing to sacrifice your soul to save him." She reassured
"Thank you, Hinata." He smiled
Hinata sighed and snuggled deeper into her husband's chest. "Do you remember what it was like before we had him, and even when he was still a baby?" she asked
"How could I forget…….."
OH THE SADNESS OF FINISHING A STORY! –Huggles Riley- But it isn't over yet! I might post a story about life before Naruto and Hinata were married and when their children were babies, cause I'm a fag and I skipped to when they were six -.-"
REVIEW OR THERE SHALL BE NO PRE-QUEL!
