Chapter 6: Mission Continues, Goodbye Konoha

"Yamato-san, Kakashi-san, it's been a while since we had seen the two of you. Heard that you are pretty busy lately, so how's Naruto's training had been doing so far?" Kotetsu asked as both he and Izumo had their round around the village and stumbled upon Yamato and Kakashi who are currently just finished having their lunch at Ichiraku Ramen.

"Yeah, anyway where's Hermione-san, usually she will be with you all the time. It's been a while since I saw your beautiful little sister, Yamato-san," Izumo spoke as he grinned without noticing that Yamato are glaring at him as his protective mode arise while Kakashi just looked at them lazily though he is a little jealous, knowing that both Izumo, Kotetsu and another fellow shinobi, Genma, had met the Golden Trio a couple of weeks ago and befriended them especially with Yamato's younger sister Hermione.

Kakashi knew that Yamato had done tremendously well in taking care of his sister and covering her true identity after she had arrived in Konoha with her two best friends about a month ago and not many had met them except his team and the rest of the chunin and includes Iruka, Asuma, Kurenai, Maito Gai, Anko, Shikaku and even Jiraiya and they had promised not to expose much about her and her two best friends. Other shinobies may had seen Yamato with the Golden Trio and slightly had the idea of her being his sister and even the shinobies who had caught them did not tell anyone about it since Tsunade had insisted that they should keep it shut. But somehow about a couple of weeks ago the Hokage had asked Kotetsu, Izumo and Genma to assisted and looked after the Golden Trio when Team Kakashi which includes Yamato, Team Gai and Team Asuma had been sent for some separate missions which took about a week or less while Team Kurenai was sent for scouting at the border of the country for about a week.

"Naruto is doing great and Hermione is having her training to be done along with her friends and we are going to see their progress afterward," Yamato spoke as the two shinobi grinned at him while Kakashi smiled and nodded his head.

"Well we had to go now, we want to see if they are doing fine," Kakashi spoke as he and Yamato about to take their leave.

"Okay then, please say hello them," Kotetsu spoke as they too about to take their leave and go to different direction as both Yamato and Kakashi nodded to them.

"Hermione, when do you think that we are allow to leave this village, not that I don't want to be here anymore but I think that it is time for us to go and continue with our mission," Harry said as the three of them were currently taking their rest from their training. Both he and Ron looked at Hermione as the brain of the Golden Trio had no idea how to respond to that question.

"I don't know Harry, my brother did not tell me anything about it, but then you are right, we already be here quite long enough and we don't know how the condition in the Wizarding world, we don't know what is currently happen there," Hermione responded, her eyes glinted with sadness.

"Hermione, what do you think, should we leave sooner or else. But what will your brother say about it?" Ron asked as both Harry and Hermione looked at him.

"I really don't know Ron. I don't know how to tell him about this or what is his reaction would be. He know that sooner or later we have to leave and continue with our mission, just that I don't want him to be worry about me when it is time for us to leave this village and go back to where we had come from," Hermione responded with a soft, sad tone.

Harry and Ron glanced at her, know that it is hard for her to leave her brother whom she hardly saw but then the time is crucial for them because from day to day Voldemort and his Death Eaters will become lot stronger than before and the faith of the Wizarding world is in their hands.

"So how then, what should we do?" Harry asked again, he is determined to go back to the Wizarding world and continues with their searching but then they are in the middle of their training and even though they had done well but then how well did they had achieves so far.

"I think that I will talk about this with my brother, just that I can't promise anything but I will try," Hermione spoke but no so confident, seems that she had lost a bit of her Gryffindor's courage.

"Are you sure about this Hermione, or why don't we all talk with him together for it will be much easier so that he can hear from all of us," Ron said as Harry looked at him while Hermione looked a little hesitated. She knew that it is better for her to speak about this with her brother alone first before involving both Harry and Ron, but then she also know that Ron is right about this that Yamato should hear from all of them. Hermione was a bit lost at this moment and confused as well.

"Hermione, what do you think about this?" Harry asked her for he had noticed that Hermione seems a little lost. Hermione looked at him and then she set her mind up.

"I think that it is better if I talk with him first before the three of us talk with him together," Hermione spoke determinedly, knowing that it is better this way and besides she is the only one who knows how to deal with her brother.

For a while both Harry and Ron did not speak anything after hearing of what Hermione had said. After hearing her Harry did not looked confident as he too realized that he had no idea how to deal with Yamato and dealing with him is not easy to be precise. Ron too knew that he is unable to deal with Yamato easily because unlike his own brothers, Yamato is different and Ron know that he will definitely not going to win if argue against him. Ron had seen the way his brothers and sister and Hermione's brother shows how they care and protect their family in different way. His brothers and even Ginny often teased him though they do care for him but he saw that Yamato really care, love and protect Hermione very much and how Hermione had shown the same affections to her brother very much the same even though they hardly see each other and Yamato is willing to do anything for her and because that Yamato is a ninja or shinobi and had the ability to use elements like water and earth, it had shown how strong and dangerous he can be. He even wonder if he can ask Yamato to come and join them but he know that Hermione and Harry will not going to allow it for Harry did not want others to get involve while Hermione did not want to risk her family in the upcoming war against Lord Voldemort and his Death Eaters.

"All right then, have it your way first, if things did not go well then we will step in," Harry finally spoke, knowing that it is the only way to deal with it as Ron nodded agrees with him.


Hermione was never this nervous before, though it seems easy to say but then by right it is one of the hardest things to do especially when dealing with her brother. She cannot expect what his reaction would be but she know that she cannot delay much of it before things gone bad.

Hermione and Yamato are having their dinner and somehow Yamato could sense that Hermione seems a little restless at that time and she even hardly touch her food. As her brother he really concern about her and wonder if there's anything bothering her at the moment but deep in his heart he somehow knew that this had something to do with those two wizards and their current mission.

"Hermione, is there something bothering you at the moment?" Yamato asked as Hermione seems to play with her food instead of eating it.

Hermione looked at him and sighed, more to herself, and she really doesn't know to how explain this to her brother. She know that she had to tell him before those two boys does.

"I don't know how to say this, but this is regarding with our mission," Hermione started and Yamato knew that he was right about this.

"What about it?" Yamato asked as he eyed his younger sister with full attention but with serious expression.

"Harry, Ron and I had spoken earlier. The three of us had agreed that we had been staying here long enough and we know that things are still bad in the Wizarding world and…," Hermione stopped as she really don't know how to explain this to him, she know that they had to leave soon but she did not want to leave her brother again but the faith of the Wizarding world in in their hands. Yamato had left his food and turned his attention to her and ready to hear what she is going to say next but somehow no word is coming from her mouth and he understand that she is having problem expressing it as she seems to be a little predicament about it.

"When do the three of you plan to leave?" Yamato asked and this had Hermione looked at him instantly and shock written clearly in her face as she never expect that Yamato would understand her.

"Sooner if possible, I know that both Harry and Ron are doing okay with all the training you had provided us and so far the two of them had been doing pretty well. We do not want to delay this much longer because the longer we stayed here the stronger our enemies would be and the lives of those people back in the Wizarding world are in danger if we do not hurry," Hermione spoke softly, determined but sad, not for the people in the Wizarding world but for leaving her brother again.

Yamato did not respond back after hearing it, seems that the time for her and her two best friends to leave is near and he know that he must let her go so that they can continue with their mission but yet he still wanted her to stay here and avoid being in danger but he know that it sound very selfish of him. He cannot think for a while as he stands and left, leaving his unfinished food and Hermione behind, he knows that he really need some time alone.

Hermione was still at the dining table as she watched her brother stood and left. He had gone out and she had no idea of where he will go as she sits there and tears falling freely from her eyes. She wanted to follow him but deep in her heart she understands that he needs to be alone.

xoxoxo

Yamato had walked all the way from his flat to the quietest part of Konoha, nearby the huge graveyard where the fallen shinobies had been buried. He cannot think properly at this moment as he walked slowly with sadness and a little of anger in his face. He sighed and took a sit at a nearby bench and sit there tries to clear his mind off. It was a quiet night and only the sound of insects are heard for the night as Yamato take this time to think deeply of it.

He knows that the moment he had left his flat earlier had saddened his sister because he had just left without saying anything. He really felt bad for being selfish but he needs this time to be alone and able think properly of it. He really did not want her to be in danger but he cannot ask her to abandon this mission that had been entrusted to them and he knows that he cannot ask her to abandon her best friends just for the sake of her safety.

Yamato just sit there watching the great night sky that is full with stars that shining brightly but his mind not fully concentrate of it but he just let it be. He had been sitting there for some time, probably a couple of hours, when someone approaches him.

"Know that I will find you here," Kakashi greeted him as Yamato looked at him in surprise. He then nodded at his senior and fellow shinobi as Kakashi smiled at him.

"How did you know, Senpai?" Yamato asked as Kakashi took a sit next to him and turned to see the bright night sky full of stars. Kakashi did not reply instantly, knowing that there's nothing to rush about.

"I went to your flat earlier and Hermione told me that you had went out, but from the look on her face I know that something had been bothering her, and I guess that it goes the same to you," Kakashi spoke after a while. Yamato just sits there listening to him and how he felt guilty for what he had done to Hermione. No word could express it and he had no idea how to explain this to Kakashi, not in his current state.

"I guess that it is almost time for them to leave here, am I right?" Kakashi spoke again and this had got Yamato's attention to him. And Kakashi knew that he had hit the right spot about it.

"Did Harry and Ron spoke to you as well?" Yamato asked, wondering what those two young wizards had told Kakashi.

"No, they did not tell me anything but seems that they had something that had been bothering them as well and I simply cannot ask them to tell me about it," Kakashi replied as his eyes still fixed on the night sky. Yamato then turned his gaze towards the same direction and the two of them sit there quietly, accompanied by the noises that comes the insects.

"I am worried about her, about her safety and about their mission. I don't know if I'm able to let her go yet even though they are well prepared and ready for it," Yamato spoke as Kakashi slightly glanced at him. He understands of how Yamato is currently felt at this moment for it is a very hard decision to make. He too did not want to see them leave but it is not his place to decide that. His mind begins to wonder back to Hermione whom he had saw quite some time ago when he was looking for Yamato and he could saw the sadness in her eyes. He wished that he could take that sadness away and do anything to protect her from harm. Kakashi know how strong Hermione was and how she was able to looked after two boys from being hurt or troubles even it will hurt her as well.

"Yamato, Hermione is a strong, brave young woman and she is full with courage and determinations and she always cares for others too. You are lucky to have her as your sister and I have to admit I was very jealous of the two of you. The two of you had a strong family relationship and how you looked after each other so well even though you hardly see your family. I know that you are going to be angry to hear this but…how am I going to tell you this, I really like her, I really like your sister, in fact I might like her more than just that. And as her brother I understand how protective you are of her and you don't want to see her hurt in any point whatsoever. And believe me when I say that I too wanted to protect her so bad," Kakashi spoke as Yamato looked at him in disbelieved after hearing Kakashi confessed to him about having a feeling for his sister, he knew that this would happen but he never thought that his senior was this bold to be honest with him.

"Kakashi-senpai, you…what, you like my sister, but isn't she too young for you?" Yamato asked in disbelieved as he stared at the copy nin, not sure whether to be angry or not at his own senior.

"Yes Tenzo, I like your sister very much indeed and I don't care if she is too young for me but she is not a child anymore, and I know that you will find it hard to accept and I don't blame that but I just want to be honest with you," Kakashi responded and he sounded very serious and meant of what he was saying.

Yamato just stared at Kakashi, unable to say anything. He realized that he cannot stop him from liking her because he had no control of other's feeling even though Kakashi had admitted that he likes Hermione very much. He took a deep breath and turned his attention the night sky above. Yamato realized that Kakashi was right about Hermione for she was not a child anymore and she already became a young woman and had gained attentions from men. None of them had spoken for a while as the night is getting darker and it was getting late and Yamato had realized that he had been gone out for hours without informing Hermione of his whereabouts and he knew that she was very worried of him.

"Yamato, I think that it is better if you talk with Hermione, no one wants them to leave here but this is their duty, their mission, so let's put our trust in them," Kakashi spoke, breaking the silence between them as he got up from his sit.

"Yeah, I know," Yamato responded softly as his mind began to wonder about Hermione and wonder if she is still sad about it. He too got up from his sit and begins to walk away after saying goodbye to Kakashi. The copy nin could only stare at him, wondering how Yamato will fix this problem.

xoxoxo

Hermione was already asleep when Yamato arrived home. He went to his sister's room and saw her sleeping figure. He did not want to awake her as he stood next to her but as he leaned to kiss her forehead he could saw a dried trail of tears in her cheek and he felt so guilty about it. He didn't mean to make her cry. He whispered sorry in her ear softly and kissed her temple before exited from her room.

In his room Yamato know that he had to decide fast and like what Kakashi had said earlier, he had to put all his trust to her and believe in her, just like she always believes in him. Guess that it is time for him to accept that his little sister is no longer little.


"In a week, are you sure about this Hermione?" Harry asked in disbelieved with his eyes wide open. Hermione had told both Harry and Ron the very next day that Yamato had told her earlier that they can leave here in a week before he decide to change his mind. He even told her to make sure that they will finish all their training and get all their gears and things that they will need for their journey soon. Both Harry and Ron are so glad that they begin to pack all their belongings though they still have a week away before leaving and continue with their mission.

Yamato on the other hand was pretty busy himself, helping them to complete their training and at the same time he had to watch over Naruto.

"Are you okay with this, Yamato?" Kakashi asked concernedly after they had finished their training and only Kakashi knew about Yamato's decision to let his sister and her best friends to go back to their mission within a week and he had told Hermione, Harry and Ron not to tell anyone yet about it.

"Yeah, I guess so, this is the only way and what is best for them. I had to trust them and believe that they will be fine," Yamato replied in attempt to be serious but somehow he couldn't. Kakashi pitied him and he too felt a bit sad.

"When are you going to tell Naruto and the rest about this?" Kakashi asked, knowing that his former students and the other chunins and jonins will not happy to hear about this.

"When the time is right, I will tell them," Yamato replied.

"Okay then, let's just hope that things will be fine," Kakashi said as Yamato nodded his head slowly.

xoxoxo

"Think that this is the only choice I had for now, let's hope that he can help me with it," Yamato's mind spoke as he writes a letter secretly in his bedroom while Hermione is in the kitchen fixing their dinner. Two days had passed and the Golden Trio will leave Konoha in another five days. After finished writing the letter he summoned for his dark brown hawk Aeous and attaches the letter at the bird's leg. After giving the bird the instruction, the dark brown hawk fly away and luckily that Hermione did not notice anything about it. Aeous was given secretly to Yamato by their distant cousin, Dino, when he visited them in Italy few years ago and he let Aeous to fly freely in Konoha and only called it when he really needed it. Yamato watched Aeous flew away when he heard the door knocked.

"Dinner's ready," Hermione called out as Yamato walked from the window and joined his sister for dinner.


A couple of days later, on the other continent

A handsome blonde was having a drink outside his mansion when a dark brown hawk suddenly land on a tree branch not far from him as he eyed the bird with a surprise look, he recognize that bird and he see something is attach at its leg.

He called out for the bird as the hawk fly from the tree branch and land next on a table next to him. He then stroke the hawk's feathers as he slowly detach thing that been attached to its leg, it was a small letter. He smiled as he read the letter, knowing from who the letter was.

"Hmmm…no problem with it," the handsome blonde spoke to no one when someone approaches him.

"Boss, is there any problem?" a man with a moustache and glasses asked him with a concern in his face, he then shocked to see the dark brown hawk that stood on a table.

"Romario seems that we got some work to do, go and get pack for in a couple of days we are leaving," the handsome blonde spoke, commanding his right-hand man.

"Where are we leaving to, Boss?" Romario asked as he looked at the handsome blonde.

"We are going to England."

"Is there any specific place, Boss?" Romario asked again.

"We are going to the Grangers' secret mansion," the handsome blonde responded with that handsome smile in his face.

In the table was the letter written to Dino from Yamato.

Dino,

How are you been doing? I know that this is so sudden but I want to ask for your help. Hermione and her two best friends had been running away from the Wizarding world, from the Ministry and a Dark Wizard and his followers to be precise, and about a month ago they had appeared here in Konoha, Hermione had apparated here along with her two best friends and had been stayed here with me. But now in a few days she and her two best friends plan to leave here and go back to the Wizarding world because they still got their mission to complete. I guess that you already heard about it from my parents or our uncle Reborn.

I wish that I could follow them but I still got some duties and missions here so I cannot abandon these missions. So I'm asking for your help to please look after her but make sure that the enemy did not find out about you. I'm sure that Hermione and her two best friends will go to our family secret mansion and I want you to meet her there, but I did not tell her about this because she will not approve this and one of her friends did not want to involve others.

I don't want to see her hurt or put herself in danger but seems that there's no escape from it, please do not tell her about this or about this letter because I send it secretly to you.

Your best cousin,

Yamato


It is time for the Golden Trio to leave Konoha and it was a shock for the shinobies when they found out about them planned to leave the village. Naruto, Sai and Sakura were very sad when they had heard about it and demanded answers from the Golden Trio but after Kakashi had interfered they clearly understood why. Tsunade and Shizune was surprise and sad too for they had grew fond of the Golden Trio, especially Hermione who had learnt so much from the Fifth Hokage.

Yamato never thought how fast time flies and now his only sister is leaving with her two best friends to resume back their mission which now they are going to put their lives back in danger. Yamato wanted to stop her but he knew how important this mission was and he cannot simply ask her to abandon it.

Yamato, along with the rest of Team Kakashi, Tsunade, Shizune and Iruka with the Golden Trio goes to where the three Gryffindors first arrived in Konoha, the one place where they had apparated there month ago. Along the way there Yamato did not speak a word and Hermione know how depressed her brother was. She really loved her brother so much and yet she had hurt his feeling by leaving and put her life back in danger again but she did not want to leave both Harry and Ron on their own searching the Horcruxes and dealing with danger by themselves. She knows how many times the boys have put their lives in troubles and dangers before.

As they reach there Sakura can't help but to cry. Naruto and Sai looked very sad while Kakashi tried to be okay but he felt sad as well for he did not have the chance to tell Hermione about his feeling. Harry and Ron seem ready to leave though they too were very sad to leave the village and its friendly people. But they still got a mission to be done and a Wizarding world to save from the bloody evil Lord Voldemort and his Death Eaters.

Now it is the time for the Golden Trio to leave as Hermione gives a hug to Sakura, Tsunade and Shizune and shakes hands with the male shinobies and when she reaches her brother, her tears fall freely from her eyes and she cannot help but to cry. It's really hard for her to leave him but she knows what is more important at the moment. Yamato pull her near and hug her tenderly as he let her cry in his arm. He then whispers softly in her ear.

"I always love you, please take care of yourself. Promise me that you will not put yourself in danger and pull any stupid act, okay?"

Hermione could only nod for she cannot trust her voice to speak. Yamato rub her arm softly and tell her to stop crying as he wipes away the tears from her face. He knows that it is time for her to leave. He takes a good look at her and he kisses her forehead. He is sad but he cannot allow the emotion to take control of him because he is a shinobi.

Hermione and Yamato walk towards Harry and Ron as Hermione joins them and held their hands firmly and after saying their last goodbye the Golden Trio disapparate from Konoha.
