Summary: They were know as the Twins of leaf…Amaya and Raiden don't have a last name….they don't even know if they have parents. They live with Naruto and Kakashi most of the time switch to the other when one has missions. What happens when one becomes curious when a cretin name comes up. Well the Akatsuki shows interest in the twins…what will become of them when their Mother and Father come back. I suck at summers I think I'm going to ask my beta for help.

Chapter Four: Family Secret
Sasuke sat on the edge of the cliff viewing over the Sound Village. His eyes held by the night sky, thoughts filling his mind. After he left Sakura standing there with only Naruto at her side he left, wanting to be left alone to think about his children. Wondering if they would ever be safe from the threat that would always haunt him or, at least, that's what it seemed like. What were they even doing? By now it had been a few months since their ceremony into the Academy. Were they having trouble at learning the craft of the ninja? Was Kakashi helping them out? What were they learning about their blood? What did they even think about Sakura and him? He sighed deeply. Closing his eyes he let the cool night air brush strands of hair from his face. It was becoming easier and easier to think about just going home, but then he had to remind himself Itachi was still alive. There was no home as long as that man lived.
Again he let out a frustrated sigh and decided to go back to Sakura. She needed him right now to be with her, not venting out anger. Standing up he stuffed his hands into his pockets and stared down to the small rice country. Grunting, he kicked a small rock down the cliff and turned his back to begin his walk home.
"Ow!" a very unwanted blond haired ninja's voice stopped Sasuke from walking.
As Sasuke turned around he glared at Naruto, who was laying down rubbing his now bruised head, legs still hanging off the cliff.
Simply turning to give the rave a glare he huffed out, "What are you trying to do, kill me?"
"A rock can't kill you, Idiot," Sasuke argued back, taking a seat next to him.
"How do you know that?" Naruto asked.
"Dobe, you just admitted that you're weak," Sasuke pointed out, only to receive a glare from Naruto, who thought better and stuck out his tongue at Sasuke.
The man simply rolled his eyes and then looked back up to the sky. Sasuke always found it weird that whenever he felt lost, was lost, he always found himself staring at the same cluster of stars. He had looked up at the same stars when his family died, when he received the curse mark, when he left Konoha for Sound… and of course when Sakura became pregnant. Perhaps it was his mother letting him know where she was. He sighed and let his mind go blank, allowing himself to just take in the presence of his best friend there with him.
Naruto looked over to Sasuke and smiled. That was Sasuke for you. Quiet and, well, so bored-looking. He never truly was bored but he'd never let you know that. That was just the Uchiha way. Naruto shook his head, his grin getting bigger as the memory of when Sasuke finally came home took over his thoughts.
\Flash Back/
Naruto jumped from tree to tree with his face planted in a scrawl as he remembered Tsunade's orders for this stupid low rank mission. He should have been put on an A-rank not this stupid C-rank! What the hell! He was strong, so why the hell was he here right now going to go escort some guy, not even from another county, five miles into town? Frustrated he growled out and stopped, aiming to punch a tree. Just as he was about to land the hit a violent coughing fit was heard from under him. Hesitantly he looked below him and saw some trick or at least it had to be. He shook his head and gawked at the figure below him. No, that can't be him. Feeling for the other person's chakra his eyes opened wide and he jumped down from his branch so fast the other person didn't even know what happened.
"Sasuke-teme is that really you?" Naruto asked, rather dumbfounded at the fact that Sasuke was standing right in front of him.
"Naruto, right now is not the best time," Sasuke spoke, looking around in a fast manner, his red eyes scanning everything.
"What do you mean it not the time? I haven't seen you in years and you tell me it's not the time! Why the hell not? I should have punched you to the ground by now and dragged your body back to the village!" Naruto yelled out, waving his hands in the air.
"Move!" Sasuke yelled pushing Naruto out of the way from an attack that would have ended up very messily if they hadn't moved.
"Oh…" Naruto said to himself as he caught sight of the attacker in front of them
"Dumbass," Sasuke mumbled under his breath glaring at the Anbu ninja. The masked person was twirling around a kunai on his finger.
"Uzumaki Naruto, this has nothing to do with you. I would advise you left," the Anbu spoke.
"You just tried to blow me up!" Naruto yelled out looking to the said Anbu like he was crazy.
"You were in the way," the man said simply.
"You can't kill Sasuke! The Hokage said she wanted him alive not dead!" Naruto fought back, feeling the anger bubble in him.
"The Hokage changed the purpose of my mission from retrieval to murder."
"She would have told me that…You're lying!" Naruto growled out narrowing his eyes at the Anbu.
"Uzumaki, I am only saying this once. Move out of my way or I will kill you - along with the Uchiha," the Anbu spoke. His voice was lowering and becoming more dangerous obviously threatening the blond.
Sasuke looked up the tree behind the Anbu and smirked. Just as Naruto was about to yell back, Sasuke grabbed him and sunshin-ed out of the way of a very pissed-off pink haired Anbu.
The air was filled with dust as a tree landed on the male Anbu, crushing him in what had surely been a very painful death. Naruto coughed and waved his hands in front of his face to blow away the dust from his eyes. As the dust began to clear they could clearly see an angry female figure stomping towards them. Silently, Naruto pressed himself to the bark of a tree because he knew very well to just who this stomp belonged to. He'd seen it so many times and it always ended up with pain – for the male, that is.
"What the hell! You shouldn't have let Naruto stay here! He could have ruined the mission! You stupid, arrogant, big-headed Uchiha!" Sakura yelled, planting herself next to Naruto, making sure nothing happened to him.
"Humph," Sasuke said, rolling his eyes. "It's the dobe's fault for intruding."
"Yeah, well, I'm the Captain, and I'm in charge of you and your ass so next time don't let him hang around, got it?" Sakura growled, punching Sasuke on the arm painfully.
Naruto laughed as Sasuke rubbed his arm, cheerful to see it wasn't him who got punched. After a few moments, though, Naruto stopped, and stared at Sasuke. The dark-haired boy stared back, with now onyx eyes locked in his blue ones.
"Wait a second… Next time? You're staying, teme?" Naruto asked.
"No, she only said next time because she's coming with me," Sasuke said sarcastically.
"What! Sakura-chan how could you?" Naruto looked over to Sakura in disbelief.
Rolling her eyes she spoke, "Yes he's coming back, Naruto."
Naruto slowly turned to Sasuke and an ear to ear grin made its way on his face. Sasuke looked at him in worry and before he could do anything he was being attached by Naruto with a long cussing hug. The blond squeezed tighter and, all of a sudden, a loud poof was heard while Naruto was left hugging a log. The boy turned around, his arms still around the wooden piece to see Sasuke glaring at him.
"Don't touch me," Sasuke snapped.
The smile returned to Naruto's face and he closed his eyes looking much like a very, very contented cat from a cartoon.
"Yup. It's still the same old Sasuke. Hey teme, doesn't that stick up your ass bother you?"
Sakura burst out laughing and Naruto joined in leaving Sasuke to glare even more at them, his eyebrow twitching in annoyance.
/End Flash Back\
Naruto chuckled at the memory, causing Sasuke to raise an eyebrow. This only caused Naruto to laugh more. Sasuke only replied with a grunt and turned back to watch the village. Slowly, Naruto stopped laughing and sighed contentedly. The only sound was the small one of a cricket's song.
Naruto glanced at Sasuke once more before falling back and folding his hands behind his head to stare up at the sky. Sasuke looked down to his friend and did the same.
"You know I asked Hiashi for Hinata's hand in marriage last month," Naruto spoke peeking through the corner of his eyes to see Sasuke's reaction. His face didn't even twitched – he remained completely emotionless.
He continued. "He said yes. I was thinking about asking her for the twin's birthday. They haven't had a birthday party in awhile. You and Sakura should go you know… it'd be nice to have you two there for once."
"No," Sasuke sighed, closing his eyes and sitting up.
"Why not?" Naruto asked
"My brother is still out there. I tried to kill him today…I almost succeeded. Akatsuki's going to be coming after me. They see me as a threat now," Sasuke spoke.
"So? Akatsuki's always after me what will be the difference? Look, Sasuke, I'm not saying this for you I'm saying it for Sakura," Naruto paused looking to Sasuke making sure he was listening.
"Sakura needs this, she been cooped up for so long. She needs to see someone other than you…she needs to see her children," Naruto continued.
Sasuke glared to the sky. Why the hell did Naruto choose now of all times to act mature? Sighing, he gave up. Sakura did need this she needed this so bad. For her, he silently said in his head making up his mind.
"We'll leave with you," Sasuke spoke getting up, not even sparing a look to see Naruto's reaction to this.
Naruto smiled and jumped up and ran right to Sasuke. As he reached him, he went to hug the man but was quickly pushed onto the ground. Glaring, Naruto looked up at Sasuke and spoke.
"What the hell? I was going to hug you! God!"
"Don't touch me dobe," Sasuke said sardonically, glaring while his eyebrow was twitching.
Pulling himself up Naruto started to dust himself off and spoke, "Does Sakura even get any? Because you know s…" before he could even finish what he was about to say a very angered and slightly pink Uchiha punched him on to the ground.
Sasuke stuffed his hand into his pockets, hung his head low hiding his face with his bangs, and started to walk down the dirt path leaving behind an unconscious blond ninja behind.
-Konoha-
Amaya sat on the ground looking towards her classmates, watching them as they all made the hand signs that they were just taught. She watched them all as some messed up making a rather very dead like clone of themselves. Others made clones that were almost perfect they just couldn't move right. Only about ten students succeed in make a perfect, acceptable clone of themselves - one that moved, talked and knew everything like their counterparts right to the T. Amaya was one of those ten, so was her bother Raiden. She right now decided to save her chakra for something better than waste it on something she already knew how to do. Naruto already had taught them this far before they even entered the Academy. Their clones might have not been perfect then but now they were at the peak of perfection and Naruto promised to show them the Shadow clone jutsu.
Naruto… where was he? He'd been gone for three months now almost four. What kind of mission did he go on? Was he alright? Slightly she felt her heart drop deep to her gut with the thought of his safety. She never let it show because she was the strong twin she was the one that held Raiden and her together ever since they first found out about their parents. The last time she cried was the first time when Naruto had to tell her that she would never have what other kids had no father, no mother, and no family. When she asked about her parents Naruto sat her down and told her the straight up truth – they left.
/Flash Back\
Amaya sat on the balcony staring off toward the park were kids played and laughed with their parents. She smiled she couldn't wait to see her parents. She had this feeling that they were great ninjas. Her mom was the most beautiful lady in the village she was admired by all the other ladies and all the men wanted her but only her father held the key to her heart. Amaya held this hope that her father was the man that everyone envied her mother for – because he was the nicest boy in the village, he treated her mother so perfectly that everyone knew they were in love.
Feeling so excited with her thoughts and imagination she jumped up and ran inside to find Naruto. He would know, he knew everything. With much excitement she ran into the living room where her brother was coloring a blank paper.
"Nar-to, Nar-to, tell me bout mama and da!" her very soft childish voice cried out as she jumped on the couch right next to Naruto making it hard to make out what she was saying.
Naruto looked to the little girl holding such light in her eyes. What had gotten her so excited? Smiling he picked her up and laughed with her as he sat her down on his lap.
"Calm down Amaya what's got you all excited?" Naruto asked looking to the small child.
"I want to know bout mama and da," she repeated again to him looking at him with such big eyes.
Naruto looked to her and his face fell to a grim look. How was he supposed to tell her she wasn't going to have a mother or father? Amaya looked at him, she calmed down now and looked to Naruto. The blond looked very sad.
"Nar-to what's wrong?" she asked looking to him.
"Well Amaya…you know that your parents loved you with all your heart right?" he asked in a gentle voice
"Yes!"
"…well when someone loves you so much sometimes they are forced to do something that will hurt the person they love. You understand right?"
"Right, it'd be like when Sai tells bad stories and we have to tell him to stop?" she questioned
"Umm… not exactly, but somehow, yes. You see your mother and father loved you so much they had to go far, far away. That's why me, Kakashi and Sai watch over you because they can't," Naruto tried to explain, as gently as he could.
"I know that, they'll come back some day and then we'll be a family and mama and da will be in love! Mama will cook tomato soup and da will train us and we'll be a real family and you'll come over for dinner every night, right, Nar-to?" Amaya asked innocently, looking up at him.
Naruto looked to the small girl and smiled. He felt his heart drop. Why couldn't have this been Kakashi instead?
"Amaya sweetie, you mother and father are never going to come back anytime soon. Maybe when you're older but not for a very long time," Naruto spoke looking to her as her eyes looked to him with a blank expression.
"They aren't going to visit?" Amaya asked
"No sweetie I'm afraid not," Naruto said looking to Amaya.
His heart broke seeing the young girl start to cry. He hastily wrapped his arms around her and held her. Her small tears wet his shirt. Raiden, feeling his sister's pain was there hugging her softly. And she cried silent tears, because she knew she wouldn't ever see her mother or father, nor would she ever be hugged by them or would be told that they love her… ironically enough, she would grow up alone just because they did. What kind of love ripped apart a family?
\End Flash Back/
Amaya glared at the ground remembering that day she hated that day. Ever since then she told herself she would never cry. She wanted to be strong she want to show to her parents what they missed out on that she grew up strong without them. That she was there all by herself, that every step in her life she took care of herself and her brother since their childhoods, since she was the strong one. Amaya was everything they were supposed to be.
Since Raiden and her were first picked on she was the one to be there to put that person in their place. She never cried and she didn't worry. She never felt pain nor did she regret something that she had ever said. When their first pet died she stood tall and let no tears fall. Raiden cried.
The only time she cared was when it came to the only family she ever knew, and she couldn't help it – Naruto was just like a father to her, and if he never came back from a mission she wouldn't be able to take it. She was, after all, only six years old… a child.
However, even though she was a child, she wasn't stupid. She knew how he was being hunted for some reason. She knew that's the reason he left this time. Shikamaru did mention something about Akatsuki… but what did a red moon have to do with anything?
Sighing, she stopped her chain of thoughts. Naruto would be perfectly fine – he was a great ninja, he was strong. A moment later she looked up and saw the one person she really didn't want to see right now. She was in no place to be messed with – her thoughts were everywhere, her emotions not in control. She was thinking too much about her family, about Naruto.
"Hey what are you doing just sitting down?" Yukio asked looking down to Amaya.
"Sitting. What does it look like?" Amaya snapped in annoyance, glaring at him.
"You don't have to be mean about it," he said back looking to her feeling pissed-off that she was acting this way towards him.
"Go bug someone else," Amaya said standing up starting to walk away from him.
Yukio felt anger bubble up and he didn't even know what he was doing. One moment he was staring down at the girl, and the second he pushed her. As soon as he did, he felt regret eating away at his throat. He then felt a weird spark in the air, and electric current run through his blood. Gawking at her he looked directly into her eyes, noticing a glint of crimson – they were bright red with what looked like one swirl wheel in each eye just staring at him. Horror struck and his body froze in place. He was afraid because he knew perfectly well what those eyes were.
The Sharingan, the feared bloodline of the Uchiha Clan.
