Disclaimer: I do NOT own Naruto. Although I really wish I did.

Mizuki: Get to the point Kita.

Akita: Shut it Mizuki. -flips him the bird-

Mizuki: Oooo scary Uchiha.

Akita: -death glare-

Mizuki: well shit… -hides behind Minato and Jiraiya-

Minato: Little girl!

Tsunade: On with the chapter please… -rolls up her sleeves growling-

Minato fell asleep after 30 minutes of crying. Mizuki was beside him asleep their heads leaning against each other's. Jiraiya was asleep in his chair. Tsunade walked out. As she saw the three boy's she smiled sadly. She walked to Jiraiya and woke him up quietly so as not to wake the two Jonin up. Jiraiya sat up and looked at her. He shot up. Before he could speak Tsunade held her hand up to him. "Akita is going to live. Her injuries weren't life threatening, although all of her chakra was completely depleted. She will need time to rest up. But it should only take a few days at most. I'm putting her on strict bed rest till she's better. Have the boys watch after her. I'm pretty sure they won't mind. These three are just like our old team… You… Me and Orochimaru…" She smiled lightly as she thought about it. "Anyways, I'll keep her here for a day or so, then she can go home. Shall I wake them up? Or leave them?"

Jiraiya sighed with relief. "Leave them… they'll wake up and I'll have a nurse talk to them. And yes… they are just like our old team. They truly are the next line of Sannin. I already know that Akita is anyway… She already has a deal with the wolves, Minato with the Toads, just as I have, and Mizuki with the Snakes. I'm surprised Akita didn't take a deal with the Slugs like you, but there has always been something about Akita that told me to go to Mount Ookami for her. The Wolves have taken her in as their Princess. Old Man Sarutobi is taken with her as well. She's just like you Tsunade. She's the Hidden Leafs Princess. I'm very proud of her Tsunade; she's like a daughter to me. Everything about her has made me proud. She's strong, caring, and boy… does she have your temper. My team is exactly just like ours. Akita resembles you, Mizuki, Orochimaru, and Minato, myself." They both chuckled and walked back to Akita's room.

Mizuki woke up a while later. He looked out the window. Dark. He looked around; Jiraiya was nowhere to be found. He shook Minato awake. "Hey… wake up… Dude! Wake up!" he pushed his friend over. Minato sat up straight and snorted.

"What time is it mommy!" he rubbed his eyes and looked up at his Mizuki, who was laughing his ass off completely. "Dammit… Mizuki… what's the big idea…? I mean… for real…" he growled pushing Mizuki into the wall as he stood up. "Where's sensei…?" he spun around in a circle nearly falling over himself.

A nurse walked up to the boys. "Excuse me… you're Master Jiraiya's boys aren't you?" She asked them in a shy voice. The two nodded. "Good… Jiraiya has told me to tell you to come back to room…" she looked at the list carefully. "Room 126…" she looked back at the boys and waved them back. The boys nodded and walked behind the small petite nurse. She looked back at the blonde; every time she did she would blush and turn forward again. They neared the room and she left them to go in.

Jiraiya looked up seeing his two boys. "Did you boys sleep well?" He asked casually. The two of them nodded. "Good, good…" He looked at Akita closing his eyes with a heavy sigh. "Tsunade has done everything she possibly can…" He was cut off.

"She's dead!" The two said in unison.

There was a groan. "Will… you to… shut the hell up… I have a headache…" Akita growled, her eyes still closed. "Damn… you guys piss me off some times…"

Jiraiya chuckled. "As… I was saying. Tsunade did everything she possibly could. The rest is up to Akita. She is to be on strict bed rest and taken care of by you two boys. Got it? She should be up and around in about 3 weeks." He smiled at them. "Go ahead and get some rest. I have to see what's going on with the war. I will be back tomorrow." He ruffled the boys' hair and walked away.

Minato collapsed in a chair beside his teammate's bed. "Goddammit… I thought… I'd lost her…" He stared at Akita, his eyes full of love.

Akita opened one eye glancing at him. "Can I help you…? Namikaze…?" Her voice was still hoarse as she spoke. Minato only chuckled. She looked at him having both of her purple gold eyes open. She stared into his deep ocean blue eyes. 'Minato…' She thought.

~Flashback~

"Hey Uchiha!" a young Minato yelled. He was smirking at her. Akita turned her head up to see what her friend had wanted. She smiled at him not noticing the smirk at all.

"What is it Minato?" She asked sweetly. Back then when they were really young she had been the sweetest girl in the world.

Until this day.

Minato had picked up the stone, pulling his arm back and releasing the stone. It flew towards the little Uchiha, hitting her right in the forehead. The young girl fell to the ground unconscious. The Namikaze boy walked off with friends, laughing and joking around.

Akita had woken up in the hospital a week later. Her mother and father were standing over her crying. The 3rd Hokage was beside them speaking quietly to them. "I am so sorry for your loss Mr. and Mrs. Uchiha. Akita, was such a great student, and would have been an even better ninja. She will be dearly missed. I promise that the boys who did this to her will be severely punished." Lord Hokage placed his hand on Mikoto Uchiha's shoulder.

Akita's voice surprised them. "D… dead…? Loss…? W… What are you talking about…? Lord... Hokage…?" she asked scared.

Mikoto wrapped her arms around her daughters form. "Oh Akita! I thought we had lost you! God don't you ever do that to us again! Do you hear me?" her mother was over whelmed.

"O… Of… course… mother…" Akita was confused, she had no clue what was going on.

~End Flashback~

Akita closed her eyes. This was the same boy that nearly killed her 10 years ago. She bit into her bottom lip. "Minato…" she spoke quietly.

Minato looked at her longingly. "Yes Akita…?" he brushed some hair red hair out of her face smiling lightly.

She looked down her hair falling in front of her face. By the time she looked up at him, her eyes were red rimmed, and tears were falling down her cheeks. As she spoke, her words dripped with venom. "Why didn't you just let me die?"
