And don't forget to write a review!!!!!!!
8 Years on... ( Pein, Konan and Itachi dead...)

Sakura had become quite the houswife since the babies were born. Gaara wanted more but unfortunately the twins had torn her uterus...that ment no more kiddies. Sakura had been cleaning all morning, the twins were out with Gaara . It had actually started to rain today...most of the time Suna was dry and barren but today it had actually rained! The dry, compacted dirt outside had formed large mud puddles which all the village children were playing in. Suddenly a thousand knocks sounded at the large wooden doors. She opened it to find one of the special-joinins standing, more like leaning on the door.

"Katsuri? What's wrong?", she asked him. He shook his head.

"The little ones are missing!!!! Gaara-sama dropped them off to me early this morning...I took them out for some training but the dissapeared!!! I'm so sorry Sakura chan!!!!!", he pleaded. A look of utter shock passed her face followed by a really scary look... The Jounin started to think about what she would do to him when she pushed him aside. Ohh great! Phsyco mother shukaku on the loose after her babies... He thought as she bounded down the stairs towards the board room.

She landed perfectly on the bottom step and flung the great wodden doors open with a bang. Gaara's party quitely backed away into the shadows. A paranoid Sakura was definately something to fear...

"Gaara! The little ones are gone!!! Katsuri lost them while he was training them... I don't know where they are!! I can't feel them!", she said quickly. Gaara immediately shot up and jumped the table.

"Sorry, family emergency! Etsura, please take care of these lovely gentlemen. Offer them drinks, food and wait for me to get back!", he said as he bounded out the door after Sakura. The front door burst open and the two protective parents sprinted out into the downpour.

"We need to go demon! We have no traction with these shoes on...", he said as he indicated one of his sandals. She nodded and flung them off. The wet sand started to swirl around them for a moment before it fell limply towards the ground, revealing two massive demons...

"Split up, you take the borders and the desert and I'll take the city", he said. She nodded. He knew the city and people better than she did and the villagers trusted Gaara more than her...no doubt because he was their leader. She'd been stripped of her duties when she had the twins but, apparently...she was back in the game. The two demons sprinted off in different directions, the clear rumbles of their massive footfalls audiable half way across Suna's desert...


Gaara looked over his shoulder at the furious Sakura. She often got like this, the kids would go exploring and go out of her boundary, she couldn't sense them...the search would end when the little 8 year olds were dragged back to the village hanging from their mother's massive jaws. They could go demon like their parents, but both Sakura and Gaara had strictly forbid it. He ploughed onwards through the silt and sand towards the town square. Villagers came out of their houses, they knew the drill, grabbed torches, lanterns and ropes and followed the gigantic shadow of their leader... He roared three times toward the east, the road to Konoha, Sakura's area. Two answering bugles came echoing back. She's picked up the scent...

Found them... almost.

Which direction?

Konoha, the road up here is saturated with their scent.

Follow, i'll be there soon... I'll send a hawk to Kakashi and Tsuande to alert them.

Okay, hurry up! Gaara stared to worry then the kids have never wandered this far away from Suna... He rumbled deep in his chest and looked down at the mases of villagers huddled between his legs and under his scaly stomach, hiding from the rain.

"People, you're going to have to move. I've got to send a message to Konoha immediately", he rumbled. The villagers didn't need anymore warning and took shelter as Gaara shifted. His rain-soaked uniform clung to his body like a second skin as the rain pelted down. He ran for the cover of the bird tower, running up the multiple flights of stairs two at a time.

"Gaara-sama what can I do for you today?", the perky assistant smiled.

"I need the fastest bird you've got to deliver a message to Konoha. It's a family emergency Satsuki!", he said quickly searching for paper and a quill. She nodded and took a rather small hawk off it's perch. Gaara quickly scribbled on the piece of paper...

Kakashi,

The twins have dissapeared, Sakura is up a the road towards you. She found their scents all over the road...It seems they went towards Konoha. Can you keep an eye out for them...if you find them send a bird back and i'll tell Sakura.

Thanks,

Gaara, Fouth Kazekage

He rolled it tight and let Satsuki tie it to the eager hawk's leg. She lifted it towards the window, placed two fingers on it's snowy brow and gave her arm a mighty swing. The bird flew effortlessly into the uprafts and away towards Konoha...


Kakashi was sitting on his bed reading his latest Make-Out-Paradise Jiraiya had dropped off after his information gathering session with Naruto. He had to admit, Naruto was just as much of a perve as Jiraiya and the Fourth had been. He thought back to his days with the fourth, Obito and the little medic nin. His memory was failing him lately and he couldn't recall her name... Obito... You helped me by sacrificing your own life...You saved me and the girl...Thank you old buddy...He thought. Come to think of it, that little medic-nin reminded him of Sakura... He hadn't seen her in ages, last time he did she was only two or three weeks pregnant... A loud thump on his window snapped his back to the present. He looked up to the small window to see a rather small hawk tapping on it with its small beak. He walked over and opened the window, the little bird soared in and landed on his drawers. He smiled, he'd always had a thing for birds... He noticed the beached piece of parchment tied to it's foot, walked over to the bed again and took the paper. He read it briefly... It's from Kazekage Gaara...wonder what he wants? Kakashi paused at the rushed script and gasped.

"I have to go get Tsuande. What if one of the Akatsuki get them. If Pein, Flower and Itachi are dead then that means...Ohh My God!! Deidara, Sasori, Zetsu, Tobi, Hidan and Mr Money-Mad! Great!!!", he said as he rushed out the door, bouncing out the window and onto Konoha's many rooftops.


He arrived at Tsunade's office within minutes and presented the message to her. She grunted in suprise.

"So he needs our help does he?", Tsuande asked Kakashi. He nodded.

"Fine, tell him we'll keep posted...and bring me another bottle of peach sake please", she said lazily. Kakashi nodded and produced a large blue bottle. She grinned happily and grabbed it with both hands. Kakashi grinned and walked out. He flitted to the bird house and replied. He heard the leaf-villagers walking towards the Hokage tower, Tsunade's booming voice...and the shocked shouts from the villagers...

"Hope all goes well Gaara...", he said as he sent the other bird on its way. It soared high in the air before drifting off on the land-breeze towards Suna...


It was almost nightfall by the time Deidara started complaining...

"Sasori un!!! I'm tired un!!!!!!!", Deidara whinned as they flittled through Konoha's thck forest. Sasori turned the kid in his arms, the little girl yawned slightly and fell alseep again. Deidara looked at the kid...Two bright green orbs glowed omniously in the slowly growing darkness...

"This one's freaky...", Deidara whispered. Hidan smirked and slowed down so he was in pace with Deidara...

"It's only 'cause he sleeps with his eyes open. You do it all the time...", he said evilly. The twins focused slowly on each other, the girl through slittled eyelids...

Reckon we should go demon? the little boy asked his sister...

Dad and Mum said no Damein!!!!!! She shrieked.

I know, but Dad told me what they'd do to us if they found us...and trust me, it's well worth going demon...

Why what would they do? Dad would kill them if they tried anything...

Trust me, we need to go demon!!! Our life depends on it!!!!

Fine, but wait a few. This guy's got my ankle...

Okay, but hurry up

Suki stirred again in Sasori's arms. Her ankle was bent at an awkward angle which Sasori noticed. He let go of her ankle slightly and it rolled around till it was normal again.

Suki harnessed the power instantly and started to shift, soon folowed by Damein who actually managed to explode himself out of Deidara's arms.

Deidara lept back with a girl-like scream but Sasori held on to the female demon's leg. She spun and whacked the side of his wooden head with her extended claws. A grating sound errupted from the contact and Sasori was flung to the ground. The two demons fully shifted as the rest of the Akatsuki lept for them... Daimen lept for Hidan's throat as he turned to face the flying demon... A crunching, cracking sound left Hidan headless. Daimen grinned with pride as his little sister ripped into Sasori's wooden corpse. Deidara was half-way up a tree with Daimen snapping and growling at his heels. He squealed another high pitched scream before he flung himself onto the giant clay bird that hand glided down to him. The demon's growled and snapped before running away from the bloodbath and intot he forest.

"If those were baby demons...I'd hate to see what the mother and father are like in their demon states...especially when they find out we took their kids", Deidara said to himself as he drifted into the night sky, a silhouette of black against the glowing, full moon...


A/N: Okay my favorite character out of the Akatsuki left HAD to live!!!! Deidara is sooooo coooool!!!!! Even if he is a girl :S

LOL, the baby demons got in trouble and the NASTY Hidan got decapitated AGAIN!!!!!!!! Obviously Kakashi got older... and Tsunade is STILL Hokage??????? Or is she filling in for Naruto??????? Confuzzling!!!! Next chapter due very soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep posted!!

Note: If this chapter didn't make sense, then the next one will definately clear everything up!!!
