Home is where the heart is.
Miya for once was glad the door was reinforced with chakra, because apparently her relationship with the Godaime was better than she remembered.
So here she was forced against the door with an audible, THUMP! She stared down at the crying blob of blond, and green with an eyebrow raised. Yes too much sake.
It took all her strength to pry the crying woman off her, so she could breathe. Who knew an old lady had so much strength?! She had literally flown from her chair, across the room, and gripped her in an achingly tight hug. She had expected anything but this! I mean she had been gone for so long she expected a slap or a chakra infused punch! That came later.
SLAP! Ouch. She stared at the godaime. Sure she deserved it but that hurt like HELL. She held her very red cheek, and stood in silence for the lecture that was sure to follow.
"You- you! UGH! You come barging in only two days after Naruto's fight at the valley of end, demanding a long term mission! Then when I finally give you one, you leave without saying goodbye! Sakura and Naruto were distraught! You should have at least told them were you were going, if not how long it was going to take!" She ranted, "Well I guess I should just call them here! I mean almost three years you idiot!" She was going to continue her long over due lecture, but stopped seeing the look on the onyx-eyed girl's face.
"You don't want them to find out do you? You don't want them to find out!" She was yelling by the end of the sentence, "Why Miya? Why don't you want them to find out?"
"Because they'll treat me like I'm eight again." The young girl spoke softly.
Tsunade's eyes widened in realization. She never thought about that. Even though she had only been hokage a short time before Sasuke left, she had seen how all her team members' had babied her, treating her as if she were crystal glass. Even some of the other team's had done so too. She sighed before continuing in a calm voice, "What do you want your new name to be?"
The young girl smiled a true genuine smile before saying with conviction, "Akane, just plain Akane."
The Godaime smiled, "Well Akane are you going to tell us what information you gained about Akatsuki?"
