The Death-trap and the secure shelter.

(Opening: Beyond the Black /Unbroken)

Part I/ At the Awaited Battle:- side team Uchimaki junior vs Team Uchimaki Senior, Double-trouble.

Part 1/ the one-sided Battle, Nineko vs Tiger, with united forces.

The Battle has been going on now since good a half hour, but all the people got to see was an entire one sided battle by Bolt.

All what Sasuke did was merely dodging his opponent´s attacks and attacking every now and then, more playing with him.

Bolt´s Pov:

"I´m getting nuts here, why can´t I attack him, how is he able to dodge every single attack of me?" I asked myself, probably for the hundred time ever since this Battle began.

Although one couldn´t even speak about a battle here, it seemed to be merely a sparring session for Sasuke-san.

I really wished to bash him upside down, but all he did was dodging, beating and smiling that annoying smile of his.

"Bolt if this goes on, we only waste precious chakra, we have to think about a strategy!" Kyūbiko stated after I was slain back again.

"I know, I know, raaah that guy is making me crazy with that annoying glance!" I stated, as I remembered the moment our Kunais crashed against.

Flashback, +/- an Half hour ago:

Our kunais crashed with a mighty metallic sound against each other.

"Hahah, I was waiting to get an opportunity to beat you, still you seem to not be strong enough to even give me a scratch, Boruto-kun…., how about this, if you manage to beat me once, I will fight seriously against you, but for now show me all that you got, this will merely annoying anyways!" Sasuke stated.

To say that it made me mad, was an understatement.

"He does not in the slightest takes this whole battle serious!" I thought, this smug face, no matter how long it takes and no matter what it needs, I will wipe it of him, I have an entire Hour to beat him up without anyone restricting me.

"This is a once in a lifetime chance, to show him who the stronger Shinobi is, and I won´t miss that!" I shouted and so I attacked first with many Taijutsu tricks but he always managed to get away, or counter my attacks

Flashback end:

"F**** it!" I shouted in my mind.

"Why am I not be able to at least beat him once?" I thought, as I wheezed in exhaustion.

"Was this all you got Boruto Uzumaki, that's quite disappointing you know!" Sasuke-san mocked me.

"I am tired of playing around, so let´s get serious, you won't be able to ever defend my dear daughter if you cannot even beat me!" he shouted as he attacked.

"Chidori!" he shouted.

"Rasengan!" I shouted, channelling my Chakra given from Kyūbiko and attacked as well.

But just as if he saw how I would attack, he dodged and tried to hit my stomach with it.

Alone my reflexes as a Hyuuga saved me from being hit.

I spun around and tried to hit him from behind, but he caught my hand without even looking, it was as if he had eyes on the back, but that should be impossible, he has no Byakugan.

"Your jutsus are strong no doubt about it, but you use them without a plan…., you don´t fight, you simply want to destroy, not minding what happens to your very own condition, at this rate you will never beat me!" Sasuke said with a menacing glance.

"We will see, I will hit you, at least twice, even if I have to get in the hospital later, I will hit you with all my power and the wrath of everyone you ever hurt before, especially Sarada, Katsuo and Sakura-san!" I shouted.

"If this shall be the united force of the wrath of everyone, than I can merely chuckle to it!" Sarada´s father mocked me with a lazy smile.

"Don´t you dare to underestimate me!" I shouted.

"Oh not in the slightest, but I clearly overestimated your skills, I thought that as the son of the Hokage you would be stronger, but it seems to me as if you haven't learnt anything in the last five years!" Sasuke stated.

Grrrrrr!" I was in a pinch, none of my attack seemed to work, even if I attacked from out of the ground he still could dodge it.

It was really as if he has 360° vision, but how, how was this possible.

"Kyūbiko, got an idea how he does that!?" I thought.

"I don´t know it Bolt, it´s strange…, somehow…, he seems to preview each and every of our attacks, but that makes no sense…., unless…!" Kyūbiko seemed to have gotten a clue.

"What is it?" I asked.

"During our Battle with the other Uzumakis my father told me about some things concerning Nagato-kun and the Rinnegan he bore….

He said that each being with a Rinnegan is able to have a connected view, so whatever a Rinnegan sees, can also be seen by the one who controls the original!" Kyūbiko stated.

"I see, so there might be a second Rinnegan somewhere, perhaps in the Public…., this way he has always been able, to see from where I attacked!" I mumbled.

"Well seems like I should use my joker now!" I thought as, I created two Kagebushins.

"Shield me, I will have to ask Inojin!" I commanded to them.

"Roger!" they said.

"Inojin can you hear me?" I asked.

"Loud and clearly, what´s the matter Bolt, it seems as if none of your attacks even scratched Sasuke-san!" Inojin asked me.

"It´s because the Rinnegan, I bet he has somewhere a clone or a being with another Rinnegan, somewhere high up, from which he can oversee the entire field.

Rinnegans are connected to the original, so whatever that being sees, Sasuke-san sees it as well, this way he is able to see me, even when I attack from beyond or behind him!" I stated.

"I see, I will tell the others, they shall hold an open eye, but I cannot guarantee that we might catch it in time, you have only 20 minutes anymore!" Inojin stated.

"I know, in the next 10 minutes you have to find something, or else he will win, if I can bash him up in the last 10 minutes at least, I might win by hit points!" I explained.

"We will do our very best!" Inojin stated.

"Thanks guys, anyways how´s Sarada doing?" I asked.

"She pulls through I would say, their battle is quite intense, her side of the arena is only a landscape of craters anymore!" Inojin explained.

"Thought so, I just hope mom´s gonna be alright!" I stated.

"Yeah let´s hope that!" Inojin said.

Sarada´s Pov:

It was an intense Battle for the last 40 minutes, even though Bolt´s mother managed to often dodge my attacks, had she little to no abilities to hide anymore.

The last 10 minutes we had been fighting each other with Taijutsu, thankfully I was able to open each Tenketsus, which she had closed, back up.

"You are quite skilled, I got to admit that Sarada-chan, you are exactly that kind of girl which I had wished for my son to marry someday!" Lady Hinata stated.

"I told you I will go all out, no matter what!" I told her.

"Well how about we then shift the level of this Battle a bit, until now we only fought with Taijutsu, but I am tired of playing around, I want to see your true power Sarada-chan.

So I want to see how you deal with this one, I call for you Pyrotora, Kuchiyose no Jutsu!" Lady Hyuuga stated and summoned a White tiger, with bluish flames on his body, his eyes blazed with fury.

"Well I guess I should then turn up as well!" I Stated.

Luckily I saved a lot of Sen-chakra last night.

"I call for you, Cat-lord of Darkness, hear me and please appear, Lord Nekomata, Senpō, Shugosha Kuchiyose no jutsu (Sage art, Jutsu of the Guardian Spirit-summon)!" I shouted using a Byakugō seal to power my sage mode.

"You have asked for my help Sarada?" I heard the loud voice of the Ex-Lord of the Ninekos.

"Yes I need your help to defeat another Kuchiyose animal!" I said as he fully appeared.

His massive Body seemed to be even huger as before.

" Is it just me or have you grown since the last time?" I asked.

"This is my original Size, the size you saw back in the Bastion was a reduced size, since the bastion was not really that big itself, anyways who is it I shall slay?" Nekomata asked.

"It´s this one!" I stated, as I nodded over to Pyrotora.

"A one of my stronger cousins out of the West, Pyrotora the white demon-fire tiger, I will do my best but he´s not easy to defeat, that's for sure!" Nekomata stated.

"I know, still you can attack with whatever you have, the entire arena is shielded by the Hokage´s shield jutsu, nothing will come through that!" I explained.

"Alright, I was longing for a real fight, ever since I banned myself in the exile!" The Giant white cat stated, with that all-time-present Cheshire-grin.

"Your Kuchiyose partner is quite neat Sarada-chan, but is he strong enough to defend you?" Lady Hinata stated.

"Pyrotora, it´s time to get it on, attack!" She shouted and the Tiger set in motion coming rapidly at us.

"Akuma Kakyū no Jutsu (Jutsu of the demon-fireball)!" Lady Hinata shouted.

"Kage no Mīra no Jutsu (Jutsu of the Shadow Mirror)!" Nekomata shouted, as he created a Hyperspace hole which sucked the entire fireball in itself.

Before releasing it from out of the shadow of Pyrotora, hitting it in progress with its own attack.

"You are strong!" Lady Hinata stated with a smirk.

"But how about we fight as well, the one who is out of chakra first has lost, for she will be too vulnerable for attacks!" She explained.

"Guess that is right, but I will not back down nor will I give up!" I stated.

"Hey Sarada, just give me some background info, what exactly is happening here anyways?" Nekomata asked.

"I have been challenged by the mother of my boyfriend, she wants to make sure I am able to defend him even if things get bad, until now we mostly fought with Taijutsu, since I didn´t wanted to show all of my jutsus, I still have some challenges left tomorrow at the second day of the Chunin exam Final!" I explained.

"I see, it's about that Bolt boy you talked about the last time right?" Nekomata stated.

"Indeed, he´s fighting behind this wall against my father!" I stated.

"I see, you father had challenged your boyfriend first, and to make sure he fights fair, your boyfriends mother challenged you, right?" Nekomata asked.

"Well you are quite smart I would say, it´s exactly this!" I replied.

"That has nothing to mean with smart, to be honest such a procedure is normal by us Cats, wherever it are with the tigers or us Ninja-cats!" The Ex-cat lord stated with a nostalgic grin.

"I stomped the father of my wife in the ground, even though I had to reduce myself to extreme low size!" He stated with a grin.

"I see, well I hope your boyfriend will make it, I have felt with my own body how strong and smart The Uchihas are, all I can tell is that your father will probably be a hard piece of work for your boyfriend!" Nekomata stated.

"I know, still I believe in Bolt, I believe in his power, he definitely will not lose!" I stated with determination.

"Alright then we better don´t lose either!" My Partner stated.

"Indeed, I cannot afford to lose here, I have to help Bolt!" I replied.

"Well then Sarada, shall we start?" Lady Hinata stated.

"Yes let´s go!" I replied.

"Nekomata fight as long as you can against Pyrotora, I will try to weaken her master and so the Jutsu!" I stated as I rushed forward, my Hands engulfed into Raiton-chakra.

"I will give it my best, partner!" Nekomata stated, as he eyed Pyrotora while both walked around in a circle before attacking.

"Bolt I hope you can defeat my father, I believe in you, I really do!" I thought.

Bolt´s Pov:

"Goddammit!" I though, as I was thrown backwards.

No matter what I tried, I had no power to break his defence or surprise-attack him.

"Inojin do you have found anything yet?" I asked in my mind.

"No still not, we all search but we cannot find anyone who looks suspicious!" Inojin replied.

"Dammit, the time is soon over and I have nothing to set against him anymore!" I though.

To not spoil all of my jutsus to my future opponents for tomorrow, I attacked mostly with Taijutsu, which after a good hour had clearly exhaust me, especially when you have a good Taijutsu fighter as opponent.

Still that bastard was able to predict all of my movement with this damn Sharingan.

And as long as I cannot disturb his Rinnegan he will see my attacks, no matter from where they come.

At this rate the time will be up soon, if only I can find the solution in time, then I can at least use my Nikkogan to turn back the time a bit, perhaps for 20 minutes.

"After all if he uses his eyes, why shouldn´t I do the same!" I muttered under my breath.

"Are you giving up Boruto?" Sasuke-san asked me mockingly.

"Never in a million years!" I shouted towards him.

"Well we will see how fast you will beg for mercy, I wanted to get serious if you get a blow at me, but I am tired of playing around!" He shouted, as he attacked me with his Raiton-jutsu.

"Dammit!" I shouted, as the only thing I could do was defending me.

"I know your weak point Bolt!" Sasuke-san stated with a nasty grin, before I was hit by something.

"Aaarrrghh!" I shouted as I felt a shuriken stuck in my back.

"Dammit…, the blank spot…, but of course!" I thought.

"Inojin connect myself with Sarada!" I thought.

"Okay…., connection is on!" Inojin stated.

"Sarada can you hear me?" I asked.

"Yes what is it…, i´m kinda occupied here!" Sarada stated.

"The weak-point of my mother is a blank spot in her vision, beside of her 360° vision there is a tiny spot at the back which she cannot visualise, if you hit her there you have her, it´s the only weak point of the Byakugan, or you attack with a massive frontal attack when she uses her shield jutsu.

But this might be a two-edged blade!" I stated.

"I see, I will look what I can do!" She stated.

"Wait there is more, our comrades a looking for your father´s second Rinnegan with which he overlooks the entire arena and so dodges all my attacks, as soon as they have found it, I will turn back the time for 30 minutes and tell you my mother´s weakness again, this way we might have a chance!" I told her.

"Alright!" She replied.

"….Bolt?" Sarada asked me with worried tone.

"Yes, what´s the matter?" I asked her.

"Would you … do something for me…, after the battle at the starlight festival….when we are alone?" She finally asked, I was sure she blushed.

"Sure thing, anything you want!" I stated.

"T-thank you Bolt!" She stammered.

"Well then I guess we should concentrate on the battle again, no matter what we will win this!" I stated.

"Of course Bolt, after all we made a promise, we will carry out the entire wrath of everyone on dad!" Sarada replied.

"Indeed!" I stated, as I dodged her father's attack.

"Well then here we go!" I said as I attacked her father from all sides with Rasengans.

Sarada´s Pov:

The Battle with Bolt´s mother came to an end, and with Nekomata´s help we managed to defeat Pyrotora and make her exhausted enough to maybe defeat her now.

"Thank you Nekomata you were a great help!" I stated.

"Always again Sarada, if you need me, don´t hesitated to summon me!" Nekomata stated before he vanished in thin air.

"I guess we come to an end now Hinata-san!" I stated and she nodded wheezing.

"Indeed my dear Sarada, you fought well and I got to admit, I have close to no Chakra anymore anyways.

So I will use it all up for my last attack, if you can still beat me, I will officially give up because I then have nothing to set against you anymore, then you have officially set me checkmate, how about it?" She asked, this could be a trap but I saw it in her eyes, that she was serious about that.

"Sounds good, but you better get serious, I will not in the slightest back down, I will fight for my love and to defend Bolt as best as I can, even if I have to hospitalize you!" I shouted.

"That's what I want to hear, then come at me Sarada-Chan!" Lady Hinata stated, as she used a Jutsu I only once saw Bolt using.

"The Juuho Soushiken (Gentle step, Twin Lion fist)!" I stated, but what I saw was different, instead of the bluish chakra, a strange violet Chakra emerged out of her Hands, engulfing it in flames.

"Basically yes, but this here is the strongest of them 3 versions, the Mōiho Futagoryūken (Fury Step, Twin Dragon fist)!" Lady Hinata explained.

"The Strongest of the 3!" I mumbled.

I already saw the Gentle step, Twin Lion Fist, as well as the Fierce step, Double Fox Fist in action thanks to Bolt using them, but this one was new to me.

I at least had to counter it with an equally strong Jutsu, I had to once again open the Byakugō seal to get myself a power up, if Bolt´s right then he will rewind the time anyways, so if I know how to defeat her I may can use it later to do that quicker.

Fortunately have we trained his time-turning ability, and we found out that if we connect through body contact, he can take a person with him in the past, or better said their consciousness, this way will we manage to know how to exactly defeat them.

Bolt´s right, If Dad is using his eye for advantage, why shouldn´t he do the same?

"Well then, I too will show you a new Jutsu I developed, the strongest I have!" I stated, as I loaded Raiton-Chakra in both of my hands, which I send into the sky, creating large floating rods of lighting.

"Raiton, Kō den´atsu Kaminari Kēji (Lightning style, High voltage Thunder Cage)!" I shouted, as my Raiton formed four lightning poles, which rained in a square around Lady Hinata, creating four high walls of pure electricity.

I jumped high up in the sky, using my Sage powers

"Raiton, Chō denka Kaminari Ransu (Lightning style,Hypercharge lightning lance)!" I shouted, as a fifth, a thicker one, was created in my hand.

"This is the end!" I shouted, as I attacked my opponent from above.

"We will see!" Lady Hinata shouted, as she raised her hands for defence, creating a massive shield made of Katon.

This way also the debate of Katon or Raiton would be solved, now we would see, which one is stronger.

"Haaaaaaa!" I shouted, as I came down with the Lightning rod, right into the cage.

The lightning Chakra connected with the weaker ones of the surrounding poles, which caused a massive overload of electricity creating the combo-jutsu Kesshō Kangoku no jutsu (Jutsu of the Plasma-prison).

The Raiton force went through anything which was electricity leading, within the cage; means also a corpse, which is by an adult to 65% out of water.

"Aaaaaaaaahhhhhh!" I heard the pained scream of Lady Hinata, even though she might has seen the attack and even if she might have instantly understood of what would happen, she was no match to the speed of a lightning.

And thanks to my Raiton no Yoroi (Lightning-style armour) which I crafted in the same moment around me, opening my Byakugō-seal to charge my chakra up, the lightning had no effect on my body.

"Baaaam!" The entire field went up in a dust cloud, being electrified.

"The finishing blow!" I stated, as I saw Lady Hinata lying on the ground, beaten and paralysed, even though she managed to defend herself with her jutsu, as best as possible.

I hope I haven't caused her a heart attack.

"You really got me there Sarada-chan, I admit, you have an incredible power within you, I underestimated you and that brought me to this state in the end.

But you, you didn´t gave up no matter how often I closed your chakra current, you always managed to force it back up, just like your mother did.

You remained your cool head and you never underestimated me, I think I can rightfully say, that I should get myself a piece of you.

I have to admit, I never was able to beat your mother in terms of force and chakra control anyway, and even with my Taijutsu I had no real chance against her enormous, brute forces, I only won 4 times out of 12.

Guess that this is my 9th loss against a Haruno, but it gave me a nice view over your skills and I can tell that I can blindly trust my son´s safety to you.

You have my blessing, now go, go and help Bolt defeating your father, you only have 10 minutes anymore!" Lady Hinata stated.

"But I first will heal you!" I stated.

"No need to, your mom´s already on her way, but you have to go, Bolt needs you, you have to defeat your father!" Lady Hinata stated with serious eyes.

"I will but how will I get to him?" I asked as I looked at the shield Bolt´s father has crafted.

"The wall, just break the Doton wall and you can go through, the moment you beat me, Naruto released his Adamantine sealing chain walls around it.

A solid punch should be enough to break through it!" Lady Hinata stated.

"Sarada, I trust you with the life of my son, I know you will love him the way he shall be loved, I can give his hand to you with inner peace and in good conscience.

I wished for you to become strong, strong enough to not to have to depend on your father, I admit, I couldn´t really ever get on good terms with him.

He brought Naruto and your family too much of suffering, as if I ever could forgave him, even if I would have forced myself to it…., also, even though I don´t want to think about it, but if he wouldn´t have left and caused all these awful things, which unleashed the war, maybe my cousin Neji would still live.

I admit I was furious at your father, but I never , not one second though to unleash this wrath on you, you were pure and innocently being born and letting my wrath out on you was never an option for me.

I saw how you liked my son, I saw that you often watched him from afar and a little it reminded me on how I did the same thing to Bolt´s father, I knew I had to do something, for you to fall in love with him and vise-versa, so I asked Bolt´s father to let you go in a team with Bolt.

But I knew another boy in the team would might get some problems, that's why I asked my Husband to break with the traditions and make a two girls one boy Team, the first since 6 Generations of our village.

And Senpou is so strong, that she would let every martial arts master paling from jealousy, I knew , even if she would have fallen in love with Bolt, you would never give up on him.

I admit, your mother and me, we kind of conducted your relation with Bolt a little bit.

But we decided that from the moment you win this battle, we would let it up to you, on how your love will progress.

From now on we cannot help you anymore, you have to experience the love by your very self.

Anyways what I am trying to say is, that i´m glad that Bolt fell for you, for now on, you have my full and honest blessing to marry Bolt…, and also I await a lot of cute grandchildren!" Lady Hinata told me, the last part with a dirty grin and a blush.

Useless to say that I was deep red from blushing, as red as a fire truck.

"A-Alright, you can count on me, I too, I wanted to be the best I could be for Bolt and I would love to make your wish true, I will give you cute grandchildren!" I stated, blushing and she chuckled.

"Sarada, are you alright honey!" Mom stated a she came with the medics.

"I am alright mom…., anyways, I wanted to tell you…, Bolt and father agreed that he will have to marry you, as long as you still want to of course, maybe it is an egoistic wish, but I want you to be happy after all this time.

I want to see you smiling from all your heart when you stand next to him, therefore I will do anything to make you happy.

But now, I have to go, I must help Bolt!" I stated and I saw my mother nodding.

"I know how you feel, and I am sorry that your family is not like others, that most of the time I could not honestly give you all the happiness you deserved, I wished that Bolt would be able to give it to you and he did, he made you so happy that I wanted to hug him and never let go, I was so glad as you told me that he confessed to you again.

You and Bolt, you are a perfect match, so go for it, go and defend as well support your love, go and break every boundaries that try to get in your way!" Mom stated showing me a raised fist and eyes of determination.

"Of course no fear I got this!" I said, as I ran towards the wall, charging my chakra.

"I will end this damn tournament, I will not allow you to lay any more finger on Bolt, Dad, so get ready, CAUSE HERE I COME; SHAAANNNAAAARRROOOO!" I shouted, as I slammed my fist into the wall, shattering the same to nothing more but dust.

"Bolt!" I shouted at the sight of him.

"Sarada are you okay!" Bolt asked me, as he was punched by dad towards the wall right next to where I was standing, I caught him luckily in time.

"I´m alright and yes your mom too, maybe a bit paralyzed but alright, how about you?!" I asked him.

"Still alive and kicking I would say, as much as I can be after being beaten up by your father!" He stated.

"Well I am here to help you get your revenge, you will carry out the one of the world and your own and I will carry out the revenge of my family, together we got this!" I replied.

"Good to hear that, anyways, he somehow must have a person who overlooks the entire field with a second Rinnegan giving him the ability to see me, even when I come from behind or beyond with my Hiraishin.

I told Inojin and the other but until now he seemed to haven´t found anything and we only have less than 10 minutes anymore, I will wait until the last second and rewind the time, as often as we need until we get behind his strategy, no matter what I will not lose!" Bolt told me.

"Hmm, that´s bad indeed, if he can see our all attacks, well let's get back on back, maybe then we have at least a chance, to catch him somehow of guard!" I stated.

"Yes let´s do this!" Bolt stated.

"Hope the others find something quick!" he stated.

"Yeah I hope so too!" I replied.

"Anyways, about what you said earlier, what can I do for you on the festival when we are alone?" Bolt asked with a smug grin.

"What do you think?" I asked him shyly.

"A Lot of perverted things are flooding my mind right now!" Bolt stated honest.

"Maybe we can do one or two things!" I stated fidgeting and blushing deep crimson.

"Wait seriously?" Bolt asked in shock.

"I was only joking you know, you don´t need to force yourself!" He stated worried.

"I don´t, …, I really want to do something like this, I want you to mark me as yours, on that no one ever will dare to touch me, I want to be yours…., you want it too don´t you!" I stated recognizing the growing bulge in his pants.

"O-o-of course!" He stammered, his nose was bleeding.

"Well then, we better win this battle or else we will have to deal with Dads constant surveillance about me!" I stated.

"That would be quite off-turning!" Bolt whined and I snickered.

"Indeed, so whatever happens, we cannot afford to lose if we want this freedom, to explore our love together!" I explained.

"I will give my everything, as long as there is breath in me I won't lose!" Bolt stated.

"Inojin get going, I need his strategy quick!" I mumbled at the thought of being able to kiss Sarada´s entire body, maybe doing this and that with her.

Shikadai´s Pov:

"Got anything?" Inojin asked us.

"No we don´t, no matter where we look, there is no one with another Rinnegan, and every spectator has been controlled at the entry, a person with a Rinnegan would have instantly being seen.

And a Henge no jutsu would have caught the eye of the guards.

But there was nothing since the last half hour, according to them!" Chouchou stated.

"Geez that´s really a drag, we want but we cannot even help them both, and the match is soon over anyways, it´s not as if there is anything we still can do which would make any more difference!" I stated, as I leaned back and watched the clouds.

"…huh…, well that's unusual!" I stated.

"What do you mean?" Inojin asked.

"There are two hawks circling over the arena!" I stated, before it dawned to me.

"But of course, this is how he has done it!" I stated.

"What do you mean, please enlighten us?" Senpou asked.

"Yeah what´s so unusual at two hawks circling in the sky?" Inojin asked me.

"In the summer time the only Hawks which are flying are the messenger hawks but they don´t circle over the village, they fly straight to the Falconry and the dovecote to deliver the messages.

The only Hawk that circles over the village in the summer for more than one day is the Hawk that announces the Chunin-exam, but that is only one!" I stated.

"So what, maybe he has found a partner?" Chouchou asked.

"A highly responsible work animal with a clear mission, rather not I would say, and as I told you…, there are no normal Hawks flying in the summer anyways….

Didn´t Bolt told us that the original Rinnegan can see everything what a cloned Rinnegan sees and that the person or the clone must be high up, to overlook the entire field…, who says it has to be a human person?" I explained.

"You mean…, the second hawk, but of course, from up there he can overlook the entire arena clearly.

"But how shall we now manage to get who´s the right one and how can we managing to distract them?" Chouchou asked.

"Leave it to me!" Inojin stated.

He draw a few small eagles on a scroll, before he used his jutsus to bring them to live. They quickly rose up high in the sky.

"Ha that should do it!" Inojin stated laughing, as we watched how both hawks were flying away, chased by the ink hawks.

"This is all we can do, the next is up to you Bolt!" I stated as I used the clone, which had token the shape of a small plastic-ball, and infused it with chakra.

This was one of the great ideas of dad, a small plastic-ball is way more inconspicuous than a clone, who has to buy an entry card.

The security was rather sharp here.

"I just hope you can turn the tables still in time!" I mumbled, as I looked at the battle down there.

Naruto´s Pov:

"They managed to get it!" I said to Gaara at the sight of Inojin-san, who send his ink eagles up in the sky.

"Indeed, I have to say the friends of your son and daughter are quite strong and smart, of what I have seen since the Chunin Exam has begun!" Gaara replied.

"Indeed they are, after all they have the best genes, all of them, not for the last since Shikadai is your sister's son, and with the brain of Shikamaru, missions are quite easy to master for him.

And Bolt has many things similar to him, as much as I know it stands 40 to 60 between them in shogi, their intelligence is higher than even Shikamaru, as much as he said at least!" I stated.

"I see, anyways, are you going to let it end like this, there are only 2 minutes left you know!" Gaara explained.

"I know, but I guess I as Hokage could do something, but shall i?" I asked with a thinking face, it could be called an abuse of office.

"I will be honest, I wanted to see your son´s power and as much as I have seen, he is quite talented, so now that he saw through Sasuke-san´s trick, the tables should have turned, not.

I really would like to see how it looks like, when both, He and Sasuke get fully serious, also is now Sasuke´s daughter involved as well, it might get interesting!" Gaara explained.

"Well if it is for you, I will do it, Shizune-san!" I stated.

"Yes Hokage-sama?" Shizune asked, I admit it was funny in the beginning to hear her calling me this way, I had a hard time to adjust towards it.

"The Kazekage wishes for an extension of the Battle time, I think 20 minutes more shall be enough!" I stated.

"Alright I will tell the MC!" Shizune stated, before she vanished in thin air.

Bolt´s Pov:

"Dammit, the time is soon over, what we shall do?" I mumbled.

Even with the two of us together we still didn´t managed to beat him.

No matter which way we tried to hit him he always either dodged or countered our attacks and he often enough threw me backwards on Sarada, rather than hurting her by himself.

"Woooah, I suddenly feel full of power again, huh, the hawk in the sky!?" I mumbled, as I looked upwards, to see how two hawks were flying away in two different directions.

"Dammit!" I heard Sasuke cursing.

"This is it, now he should not be able to see us over his Rinnegan anymore!" I stated.

"I see well it will not help us anyways, the time is over!" Sarada explained, as she pointed towards the timer which was close to one minute

"Dammit, I so wanted to beat him up with you on my side, for all he has done to you, but in the end I couldn´t…., I better rewind the time, now that I know his strategy, sorry that I couldn´t make it in the first attempt!" I stated to her.

"No need to be, you fought well!" Sarada stated as she kissed me passionately.

I took her in my arms and made out with her, right before the entire village and her father who ´s wrath was practically touchable.

"This will be your last kiss with her, Boruto Uzumaki, so you should cherish the moment, before I finish you off in the last second!" Sasuke-san shouted, as he rushed at us.

"You will not Hurt him!" Sarada shouted, as she was about to jump before me.

"Dammit, Sarada no!" I shouted, as I saw his Katana, which he drew, to be engulfed in Raiton-chakra and enlarged in its size.

"No not this time!" I shouted as I, in last second, pushed Sarada out of the line of fire.

"I won't lose!" I shouted and ran with a Fuuton enhanced Kunai towards him, blocking his katana.

I was inches of slicing his throat with it, as he jumped back, charged his attack.

"Forget it!" I shouted as I ran towards him and teleported behind him attacking him from behind.

"You go down, Chidori Senbon!" Sasuke-san shouted as he attacked with large Raiton needles, coming from 360°, which emerged out of a circular swift of his katana.

"Goddammit!" I shouted, as I barely could block them all of.

"Aaaaah!" I heard someone shouting.

I saw some needles flying straight at Sarada, they were too near for her to dodge.

"Haaa!" I shouted, as I teleported right next to Sarada, took her Bridal style and teleported away.

The Senbon hit the ground, a second later, with a loud noise.

"Luckily I was fast enough!" I stated, as we arrived behind Sasuke.

"Yeah but it cost us the last minute, i´m sorry Bolt if I would have been more careful…!" Sarada stated.

"Forget it, it is neither you nor my fault, we lost but that does not mean that I ever will leave you!" I stated still holding her.

"Oh Bolt!" Sarada stated and kissed my passionately.

"You little shit, get your damn hands of my daughter, you lost so it´s my duty as her father, to punish you for touching her so inappropriate!" Sasuke-san shouted as he came at us.

"Attention, attention, there is a new announcement incoming…., at the special wish of the Kazekage of Sunagakure, gets the Battle extended to 20 additional Minutes….., I repeat, the Battle gets extended to 20 minutes!" The Mc Shouted in his Microphone.

"Awesome, so everything is still up…., alright we still have time to beat that sucker!" I stated in excitement looking at Sarada, before facing Sasuke with my Byakugan.

"Yeah let's do that Bolt!" Sarada replied equally excited as she activated her Sharingan.

Both we stood there hand in hand.

"We will win this together!" I shouted, as we rose our intertwined hand.

"Naruto, you little fuck…., I will deal with you later!" I heard Sasuke-san saying.

"No one insults my father /the Hokage, especially not you!" We both shouted in unison, as we ran at Sasuke-san with our jutsus.

"Rasengan!" I shouted, as I teleported inches away from my target to get behind it, while Sarada came from the front.

"Haaaaaaaa, Chidori!" She shouted, as she attacked.

"Haaa to easy!" Sasuke-san shouted, as he jumped high.

"Forget it!" I shouted, as I grabbed Sarada´s free hand and spun around our axis, running back to where we came from, we turned and send shuriken flying at him.

"Is that all you got?" he mocked us, as he rebound the shuriken with his Katana.

But he had not counted with my skills.

"Taju Kage-shuriken no jutsu!" I shouted, as I send another wave of special shuriken at him.

The same were enforced by Sarada creating the combination jutsu Kō den'atsu hoshi no ame no jutsu (Jutsu of the high-voltage star-rain)

"You still don´t learn, don´t you, with this lame type of jutsu you cannot beat me!" He mocked us as he deflected them.

"Don´t call the jutsus of my Sensei lame!" I shouted.

The Shuriken around him, transformed in their original form, Kagamibushin of myself, enforced with Sarada´s Raiton no Yoroi.

"Haaaaa!" they all shouted, as they loaded all Chō Oodama Rasengans to use Fuuton, Chō Saikuron Shōheki (Great Cyclone Barrier), enforced with the Raiton, attacking him out of every direction.

"Baaaam!" With the last one hitting a cloud of dust emerged.

The Shockwave of the explosion, which came, was so strong, that I could not see a thing.

I looked with my Byakugan only to see a big wall of chakra.

"Shit!" I shouted, as something came rushing at us.

"Sarada, watch out!" I shouted, as pushed her out of the way.

Before, whatever it was, collided with me, slamming me right on the shield´s ceiling.

"Impressive indeed Boruto Uzumaki, still it´s not enough to beat me, not at all!" Sasuke-san stated out of a big wall of chakra, shaped as a strange face.

"Susanoo, an invincible shield made of Chakra, which acts at the users will!" Kyūbiko stated.

"Dammit, it was clear that he will pull of something like this as last resort, if we cannot beat him we have lost the battle, according to hit points!" I stated.

"Can we even win anymore?" Sarada asked doubtingly.

"No matter what, I will stand at your side, through good and bad times!" I stated to her, gently grabbing her hand for support, I engulfed her in Kyūbiko's chakra.

"I will fight on your side and defend you with all I got, my heart and my soul, my whole life belongs to you Bolt!" Sarada stated and her eyes changed to Sharingan of another type…, well at least I think it are Sharingan, because I never heard of a sharingan with 4 tomoe.

"We won't back down, even if we face defeat!" We shouted at Sasuke-san in unison.

"The Show me what you got kids, cause here I come!" Sasuke-san shouted, as his Susanoo changed its shape making it to a huge being, looking like a giant Tengu.

"We won´t lose!" I shouted, as I took a scroll, my father gave me, before the Battle, he stated that I should use it only as the last resort, even though had no idea what this was.

"Summon!" I shouted, as I charged Chakra at the scroll.

Out came a strange Kunai like blade, it was Blue with gold, next to it was a Box with five crystal spheres in different colours.

"Bolt, can you hear me, I speak over Ino to your mind?" I heard it in my mind.

"Dad.., yeah I hear you, tell me…, what is this thing?" I asked.

"It´s the Ryūjin, the Dragon Blade, a holy artefact of the Ryū-clan.

This weapon has the ability to allow its wielder to perform any technique and allows them to use any of the basic nature transformations. The Dragon Blade also enables the user to cut and absorb their opponents' chakra.

However it can only be wielded by a person with exceptionally high levels of Chakra, such as you and I.

Finally, a very useful ability the sword has is to stay forcefully partial to its owner, so it will always trying to stay in connection to you.

It had been lost since a few years ago, after I lost it in Mount Koryū in the temple, which caved in after a fierce battle against some powerfull dragons, I thought it was gone for good.

But a friend, Akari Tasushiro, former one of the guardians of the Dragon blade, which I made during a mission to the said temple, found it by chance.

She went inside the mountain, to see what might be able to be saved from the old temple and there deep down, she found the blade and brought it to Konoha.

Ever since it is in my possession, and now I decide to give it over to you, I knew that Sasuke might use the Susanoo, that's why I gave you this sword, if the Susanoo is an invincible shield, so is the Ryūjin an invincible sword!" Dad stated over Inojin's mind jutsu

"I see and what's with these spheres?" I asked.

"What gives the Dragon Blade the ability to use all of the basic elements, are five orbs which are inserted into the centre.

The orbs are coloured for their elements, similarly to Kage hats; red for fire, green for wind, yellow for lightning, orange for earth, and blue for water, one each is made out of a portion of the power of the Genryū, powerfull elemental dragons who lived during the old times before the first ninja world war, maybe even long before!" Dad stated.

"I see, well I got to thank you, I bet with this I can beat Sasuke-san!" I stated.

"Yes still, you only have 10 minutes, so you better get in gear!" Dad stated.

"I will, no matter what, I will not lose!" I replied.

"Sarada, we going to attack, this will be probably our last attack, but it will be our strongest!" I said to her.

"Will you trust me?" I asked.

"Forever and ever!" She said, as she summoned a Katana, similar to Chouchou´s, it was Black with golden ornaments, the blade was made of Chakra leading metal.

She held it in high regard and it was her precious treasure, since it was a Present from Dad for Sarada´s graduation at the Ninja academy and for becoming a Genin.

She got it five years ago, 2 days before Sasuke-san came back home.

I on the other hand, was taught the Sennin modoo by dad.

"Here we go!" I said, as I inserted the green wind-orb in the Blade, which instantly began to glow in a green shine, as I charged Chakra in it.

"Yes, we will win!" Sarada stated, as she charged Raiton chakra in her Katana.

"We are in this together and we will be victorious!" We shouted, as we took each other's free hand.

"Haaaaaaaaaa!" We shouted, as we both swung our blades at the shielded Sasuke-san, who tried to attack us.

Midway our attacks merged together, something which normally should not be possible, since wind and lightning are opposed chakra natures.

"My chakra, it´s reacting to yours, but how?" Sarada asked.

"The power of love can create anything!" I simply shouted as the blade collided with Sasuke´s Susanoo.

"Raaaaaaaaahhhhh!" We shouted as the stream became harder to handle, but with united forces, grabbing each other's hands together with our blades, we managed to hold it out, but it began to push us backwards.

"Sarada, hold on tight!" I stated and she did without hesitation.

"What are you doing?" She asked, as I raised a hand behind me crafting a Chō Oodama Rasengan.

"I´m giving us a private flight!" I replied

"Hakke Kūshō!" I shouted, as the Rasengan was large enough, creating a mighty stream, with pushed us forward, right into the Susanoo, piercing through Sasuke-san´s shield.

"IT´S OVER!" We shouted as both our blades pierced right through each shoulder of Sasuke, immobilizing him.

"Baaaaaaammm!" The entire Susanoo went up into a huge and massive explosion.

"Aaarrrggghhh!" I shouted, as Sarada and I were pushed backwards.

I caught her in time, as I slid to the wall of the Arena.

"Ooow, way to go…, are you alright Sarada?" I asked.

"I am, don´t worry!" She said.

"Wow, that's a lot of destruction, guess they have much to clean up later!" I stated, as I saw the massive scratch into the ground from the cyclone stream and the crater which has been left by the explosion.

"Where is dad?" Sarada asked.

"BORUTO; UZUMAKIIIIII!" Sasuke-san shouted as he, massively damaged, tried to still attack us, running up to us.

"Geez that sucker never learns, shall we bring it to an end?" Sarada asked me.

"Of course there is still one minute to go, so hold on tight!" I said to her.

"Let´s go!" She replied and so I teleported right before Sasuke, my Ryūjin at his chest, right before his heart, ready to pierce it, while Sarada´s Katana was at his throat.

"GAME OVER, DADDY!" Sarada shouted mockingly.

"We got a winner, team Uchimaki has won!" The Mc shouted in his microphone, after a moment of silence, as the spectators came to realize what just happened.

The cheer that emerged out of the silence was ear-deafening.

(Scene music: chorus of `Fight for you´ by Jason Derulo)

"Guys!" We heard it after we released Sasuke-san out of the deadlock, he only fell to his knees, baffled.

We turned to see our friends and families running up to us.

"You guys were amazing!" Chouchou shouted.

"Indeed, hats off to that masterpiece!" Shikadai stated.

" You guys were really great, the perfect motive, this finishing move, it branded itself in my mind!" Inojin stated in a fit of inspiration.

"You guys Rock!" Senpou, Himawari and Katsuo stated

"Aw chucks guys, you flatten us!" I said blushing.

"T´was nothing!" Sarada stated crawling her neck in Embarrassment.

"Ahem…., I cannot believe to say that, but you guys really got me, even I have to admit that.

Sigh I guess I have also to admit, you are stronger than me and I think I can agree, that you are more than capable of defending my daughter, Boruto Uzumaki.

By the way…, that Jutsu at the end, what kind of jutsu was that, I never knew such a combination was possible!" Sasuke-san stated and it were words of honour coming from him, not that they mattered much to me anyways, but still.

"Yeah I would like to know this too, I never saw such a Combination!" Dad stated too as he arrived with the Kazekage, mom and Sakura-san.

"Mom are you alright!" I asked.

"No fear i´m fine, Sakura helped me and I will be fine by the time the festival begins, don´t worry, after all I was the one who was challenging Sarada, so I knew what I was getting myself into!" Mom stated with a smile, way too bright for being ultimately defeated a few minutes ago.

"I See thank you lord, I feared that I had accidently hospitalized you…., anyways, how shall we call this new style, Raiton and Fuuton combined itself, something which normally would be impossible?" Sarada asked in thoughts.

"How about Raiuton, Subete kezu Raiuken no jutsu (Thunderstorm-style, Jutsu of the all-cutting Thunderstorm-sword)!" Inojin suggested.

"Nice, let´s name it like this!" Senpou replied.

"Yeah, Hahaha!" Sarada and I, we laughed as we held each other in our arms.

"It has been proved, love and friendship is stronger than every hatred and anger, I tried to defeat Sasuke-san all alone and out of selfish feelings and even with power ups I was not able to defeat him, only with the united force of friendship and love we were able to defeat him!" I stated.

"Indeed my son, there are enemies and opponents, which one has to beat by your own, but there are also some, which are easier to beat with your friends, who are fighting together with you!" Dad explained.

"Nice speech Naruto!" Shikamaru-san chuckled, as he hit my dad´s back.

"Anyways Sasuke-san, you lost, so you have to fulfil your part of the challenge, you are not allowed to butt into Sarada´s love life ever again and you finally going to marry Sakura…, as long as she still want to, mind you!" Dad stated, loooking quizzically at Sakura.

"Wait what?" The same asked blushing of embarrassment, after being asked in all public and right before Sasuke.

"We know that we, Katsuo and I, are only unofficially Uchihas and only can be officially Uchihas if Dad marries you!" Sarada said to the surprise of her parents.

"How do you know that anyways?" They asked her.

"I got my sources…., anyways, Mom, do you still love and want to marry Dad?" Sarada asked.

"Sure thing, of course I still love him, and you bet I want to finally marry him…, after all, he owes me this.

After 11 years of loneliness and hardships, as I raised you, his children, while he was chasing after shadows of the past throughout our world!" Sakura-san stated with a raised fist to her future husband.

The same only sweat-dropped and backed away in fear.

"Alright now that this has been cleared, we should get home, a bit of a nap, something to eat, a douche and then it´s going to the starlight festival…, as long as you guys want to come along?" Dad stated and asked us.

"What do you think, shall we dare again?" I asked Sarada.

"Yes, if we can defeat Dad, then we are ready to try a second attempt!" Sarada stated with confidence.

"Alright then it is set, we all going to have some fun tonight!" Senpou stated enthusiastically.

"Anyways for the wedding you don´t need to worry I will arrange everything, so when shall we do it?" Dad asked equally enthusiastically like Senpou.

"How about in three months?" Mom asked Dad.

"Sure, whatever you want …, Sweetheart!" Sasuke-san stated pressed and more forced by the glance of everyone.

"Alright now that that's settle as well, time to go prepare for the party, you girls come to me, we going to have a nice girls talk while preparing, we meet in a half hour so bring everything you need with you, got it!?" Chouchou stated, as she looked at Sarada, Senpou, Himawari and Shana.

"Sarada!" We heard it behind us.

I froze at that voice and in less than 5 seconds all the things I bottled deep inside of me, ever since that day, were rising almighty back up, I hadn´t seen him for years and that has been a good thing.

Now this inner peace seemed to be shortly from breaking apart again.

"You, what are you doing here!" I stated annoyed, as I turned around.

"Hey Mitsuki…., n-nice to see you!" Sarada stated rather uneasy, backing unrecognizably away, towards Chouchou, who looked confused.

"Mitsuki, you know better than to talk to her, just keep your distance and don´t bother us!" Shikadai stated with extreme hostility and Inojin nodded.

"Nice battle I would say, you got some fancy skills…., you too Boruto!" Mitsuki Tsurugari, my greatest arch enemy next to Sasuke-san, stated, while ignoring everyone else.

"Thanks and now get the hell out of here, before I forget myself and beat you back to the hospital!" I stated in wrath.

"Oh c´mon Bolt, be nice, your girlfriends parents are here and you don´t want them to see your bad side, wouldn´t you, it would be bad for your relationship!" Mitsuki replied with hat annoying accent.

"Tsurugari-san, please leave, we are not in the mood for your mind games, leave my daughter and her boyfriend in peace!" Sakura-san stated as hostile as I was, baffling anyone else.

"Boy you better do what she says!" Sasuke-san stated, even though he did not quite get, what was talked about.

"Oh c´mon guys I just wanted to congratulate Sarada for her victory, I hope we will have the pleasure to fight against, I have taken a lot of information about you and i´m certain to win!"

"Maybe, but I haven´t seen you fighting, maybe you are so lame that it will not least more than 5 minutes anyways, so what kind of fun would it be to defeat you?" I stated, with venom on my tongue.

"I am assigned for tomorrow with my partner, who knows maybe I will fight against you guys in my first match, I would really love to fight against you!" Mitsuki stated.

"Oh, would you…., well I would love to polish your stupid visage!" I muttered under my breath, while my hand was lightly squeezed by Sarada´s.

Guess she heard me and tried to hold me back.

"Anyways, we surely will see us tomorrow someday, I will be looking forward to it!" Mitsuki stated with that annoying voice of him.

"Oh I´m looking forward to it too, Mitsuki, hope you will be prepared, you better reserve yourself a hospital room already….., then you have not to suffer more in your anguish, that I will cast upon you, while waiting to get a room!" I stated, with a menacing glance, which made the others shivering.

"I will be prepared, no fear, still…, you might have won once against me, but believe me, I won´t let you this time!" Mitsuki stated with an equal menacing glance.

"We will see!" I stated.

"Indeed…., anyways I got to go, see ya!" He replied before he finally went away.

"I thought that guy never leaves!" I sighed in relief, as I released the nails out of my hand, which had left some bloody marks in my palm.

"Oh Bolt!" Mom stated as she stepped to me and took my hand in hers to heal it.

"Oooookaaayyy, what was that all about?" Chouchou asked highly confused.

"Long story!" Sarada and I only said uncomfortably, while Shikadai and Inojin looked to the ground remaining silent as well same as Senpou.

"I got time!" Chouchou only replied.

"I would rather not speak about it now!" Sarada stated, while I simply remained silent about it.

The memories of that time, as he still was a friend of Sarada and me, as well as Inojin and Shikadai, in the academy, were some of those memories which still today let the blind rage rise inside of me.

Especially when I remember, of how easily he trampled over the feelings of others.

"I sense a love triangle-story coming!" I heard Katsuo muttering to Chouchou, as we walked forward away from the festival ground towards the downtown.

"Indeed!" Chouchou replied with a worried glance at Sarada and me.

Part 2/ Before the Starlight festival:- Anguish redefined, uncomfortable memories.

Chouchou´s Pov:

This development did not suited me at all.

I knew there were a lot of things which I still not know about Sarada, after all we are only since around 7 to 8 years befriended, but still, I thought she would at least have told me something like this.

But seeing her clinging at Bolt not only because of love but also for some mental support, ever since we met that boy, made me thinking.

That Boy was without a doubt really arrogant, the way he talked with Sarada, as if she owes him something, told me that there might have been something between both, but that it long had been finished and not on good terms as I think.

On the other hand, the reaction of Bolt was rather easy to read, it was not just simple jealousy…., no it seemed to me, as if he had a deep hatred for this boy, similar to his hatred towards Sarada´s dad.

Maybe even stronger than that.

The reaction of the boys and Sakura-san was more that of pure disgust and hostility, which made me kind of thinking.

What could he have done which gave him everyone's hatred?

"Himawari, do you know something about this?" I asked Bolt´s sister, as we went off the festival ground to the big crossroad, the Boys would meet at Shikadai´s, the girls at my house.

"Only vaguely, all I can tell you is that Mitsuki has played a cruel game with Sarada's feelings, I don´t know any details, but Bolt and Mitsuki had a massive fight at the academy, it resulted that Bolt was suspended for one month from the Academy and Mitsuki lied a whole month in the hospital and had been thrown of the Academy.

During this time Sarada was regularly visiting us, for an entire month at our house in which Bolt had been suspended.

I think she searched the company of my brother, for mental support, they made homework and learned for tests together and afterwards they laid hours long in each other's arms in the garden, while bolt caressed her hair and Sarada cried bitter tears in her sleep.

As much as I know it was one of the many times that Sarada asked to come over by herself, she slept only 4 times over as it was on my invitation, when I needed someone else but my brother on my side.

And 10 times that Bolt had invited her, I think tonight might be the 20th time at all.

I think I remember, that it was around this time of the year, as it happened.

It was one of the many twists of fate in their both lives, a twist which pulled them closer together!" Himawari stated to me.

"I feared you would say that, so it is as I thought!" I said.

"No wonder that she was afraid of being hurt again by a boy, I guess it´s also no wonder, that she did not showed interest in any other boy but Bolt.

Whatever had happened that time, it must have bring them both closer together than they were before, perhaps that might have been on the very same day, as Bolt´s unshakeable will to protect Sarada has awoken!" I thought.

I was determined to find it out, also so I was prepared to polish the stupid visage of that Mitsuki when I see him the next time.

Sarada´s Pov:

As I met Mitsuki again, all those gruesome memories came back up, all the false feelings he made me feel.

The way he trampled over my heart and kicked it in the garbage, all these feelings I buried deep inside of me, came almighty back to the surface.

But it also showed me that Bolt stood at my side, even as I though he lied, only to break me and Mitsuki apart, even after I accused him of various cruel things, he still did not left me suffering after I found out the truth and searched for a shoulder to cry into.

He was there for me and I, through this, learned that he never meant to hurt my feelings.

Mitsuki was the first to call Bolt a Gary Stu character, like out of a fanfiction, as he once said in the letter of apology he had to write to me.

A character who can anything, and gets everything, who everyone admires and who gets all the women.

Many of these claims were unjustified, Bolt trained hard to become who he is, he does not always gets what he wants, especially not the time of his father during that time, still we did not know that time what we know today.

Also did Bolt cared less about being admired by everyone and desired by various girls, he always held himself on his real friends, mean us, Inojin, Shikadai, Senpou, Chouchou, Konohamaru-sensei, Mirai-sempai Himawari, Katsuo, Shana, Salia, Hiro and now also Sarin as well as the various other persons dear to him and of course myself.

We knew how to face him and to speak with him and so did he; just completely normal and without sweetening our words or making false claims.

Also did no one of us minded it a bit, that he became the leader of us all, to be honest sometimes we even clearly pushed him into the same role.

Bolt is always there when someone needs him, still he always only tries to do what he actually can do…, I admit, there are a lot of thinks he can what others don´t and for which he often draws the jealousy of others, still there are equally as much things which he can´t.

To me Bolt is just like everyone else maybe only a bit more cute, cool and adorable.

Without him I would maybe have maybe killed myself that time, drowning myself in the Uchiha Lake, I was inches from doing it, but Bolt found me, he comforted me, he stated that he had observed me the whole time ever since our fight, to make sure that I don´t do something stupid, when I get to know the truth by myself.

I apologized to him and against all my expectation he forgave me, it were some crass things I had thrown on his head that time, but he never gave me up.

"Sarada, are you alright?" Bolt asked me, disturbing my trail of thoughts, while his hand clasped mine with a warm gentle touch.

"I guess so, I was feeling nauseated for a short while but now everything is back to order, sorry to have you worried!" I said.

"I am here for you, no matter what, he won't be able to hurt you again, I swear!" Bolt stated, as he took my cheeks and looked with a loving glance at me.

In that one moment reality faded and it were only him and me on a Meadow of flowers.

"Sweetheart, i´m so glad to have you on my side!" I stated, as I reached up and kissed him.

"Same here, there is no better thing!" Bolt replied as he leaned in.

"Ahem!" we heard someone clearing her/his throat, which brought us back to reality.

"Guys we going to divide now and we are going to meet in a half hour at Shikadai and my house respectively, understood.

Boys make sure you are already a 20 minutes before the start of the festival at my home, for picking us up, this year we can all celebrate together, so we shall not blow this chance, got it?" Chouchou explained.

"Roger madam, your princes will be there, 20 minutes before the time, neatly dressed, cleaned and combed!" Inojin stated as he bowed like a butler.

"Alright well then let´s go, we only have 2 hours to prepare ourselves before the festival begins with the lampion-flower show of the Kusa no jitsu members from Kusagakure!" Chouchou stated.

"Alright then, got to go!" They all said.

In the end beside of Bolt, Katsuo and Himawari and me, no one else remained on the main crossroad of Downtown Konoha.

"Well guess we should get home too, if we want to be ready in time!" Bolt stated and we nodded and so we made our way over to our villas.

Bolt held me in his arm and I leaned on him, finally feeling the true victory of this battle, Bolt and I, we officially were a pair, everyone has seen that in the battle and we managed to let it survive Dad´s trial, we even beated him together.

"Well then, we see you at Chouchou´s house in 2 hours!" Bolt stated as he and Himawari separated from us.

"Yeah see you!" I said and turned around.

"Sarada!" I heard it behind me and I turned back around, only to be kissed and embraced by Bolt.

"Don´t think too much about it okay, if he tries to hurt you I will send him back to the hospital, just like last time!" Bolt whispered in my ear.

The tears stung in my eyes as I remembered that time, his suspension of the Academy after he hospitalised Mitsuki and the time we had shared together in his garden and his room.

He was giving me support and that helped me to overcome my pain, just like ever since too.

"Yes I know!" I whispered back, as I pressed him at myself.

"Send me a message when you are at Chouchou's, just so I can be sure that nothing happened on your way…., or better go with Himawari, if you are in groups nothing should happen to you girls…., no it will be better when I escort you together with Katsuo until the Crossroad!" Bolt stated to me.

"If it´s okay with you, that would be nice!" I replied.

"I am there for you Sarada, that´s what I vowed to you!" Bolt only stated, as he kissed me on my forehead.

"And after all, as a good boyfriend I logically defend my girlfriend against everything and everyone!" He smirked as he caressed my cheek.

His eyes were honest and his words so gentle, that they truly made me melting.

"What do you think, you and Katsuo get your things, and you come to our house to get in the douche, maybe you can help Hima with the pre-preparation make up and afterwards, we will go all together towards Chouchou's.

And then your Brother and I will depart to meet up with the boys, that's more like a Plan…, honestly I don´t want to leave you in the slightest, especially not when Mitsuki is back in town!" Bolt told me with a feverish, concerned glance.

I squeezed his muscular body, pressed me on his six-pack, and admired his muscular, well-trained arms, his hands, which were tender and gentle, even though he could have a strong grip.

It were hands which were meant to hold weapons, to defend rather than kill, hands made for stroking tenderly over my skin, igniting the same.

Pure erotic touches were created through them, which ran jolts of sweet electricity through my entire body.

I was wetting my pants the one or the other time, when I fantasize about what for sugar-sweet things these hands can do to me.

Alone the thought about it now, made me moan in pleasure.

Before I burned up in blissful fantasies, I let go of him quickly, cooling back down, it was dangerous, I was inches away of ripping all clothes of him, and Himawari as well as Katsuo had that damn cocky grin on their faces.

"No fear, tonight we have enough time to think about such things!" Bolt whispered in my ear before he sucked seductively on my neck.

"Bolt, no not now, I got to go and prepare myself, I , I want to …, please…, fuuuaaaaaah!" My brain ignited in sheer lust, my Tongue hung out, and I think I might have wetted my pants due to this overflow of dirty thoughts.

"I will not let you sleep tonight, if that is what you wanted, I will make you feel good!" Bolt whispered in my ear, liking the same seductively.

His touches were pure sex for me, he pressed himself at my body and I could feel each of his abs, each of his muscles, and I could feel the hard bulge in his pants, getting even more harder than before in the Arena.

I wanted Bolt to taste my entire body, to pleasure me with his sweet love.

My fantasies at night, maybe they would become true tonight.

The sexappeal of this Boy was dangerous and I had to apprubtly turn around, hitting my cheeks multiple times, to come down of these sexual thoughts and fantasies.

"I-I-I-I will be right back, Katsuo let´s go!" I stammered with a blushing face.

"Sure sis!" My Brother said with an equal massive blush.

"What's wrong?" I asked him confused.

"Hima asked me out, she wanted to spent some time alone with me, before meeting back up with Shana and Hiro later, according to Shana will their parents meet up with some others of the Aburame Clan and they have to go with their parents.

So for the first 3 hours of the festival we two will be all alone, what shall I do, I mean we still haven´t really decided on which level our relationship to each other is standing.

Ever since she knows that Inojin has no real interest in her, beside of friendly care and Kindness, she and I seemed to have gotten closer, but there is nothing clear between us, not in the slightest.

Even though she knows more or less that I love her, she hasn´t said anything to it since the last weeks…., geez it´s just so unclear between us, I wish I had Bolt-Nii-san´s guts to simply tell her straightforward how I feel.

My confession came more unclear to her, since she still only believes that most of it was a simple illusion.

And now she invited me to her home, told me that I could prepare myself at their house, i´m so nervous, honestly I never really was at her house, at least not ever since they live there.

And she will be there, so close to me, maybe she even lets me in her room, im so excited, but also so terribly nervous.

I have no idea what to do, you got to help me sis, I beg you!" Katsuo stated, shivering in nervousness.

"Relax, breath and just be yourself, restrain yourself from insulting anything in her house, even if you might see a cockroach, which I highly doubt, be friendly and kind at any time, and she won't have at least a negative first experience with you.

This could be your first chance, to improve your relationship with her!" I explained.

"I see you are right, I cannot afford to blow this opportunity!" Katsuo replied.

"That´s right, if you simply be yourself you should have no problems.

Himawari grows to a beautiful lady and as long as you treat her with care and kindness, nothing should go wrong, after all she knows you well, so just try to show yourself from your best side.

Tonight we decided for once that we should use the easy-going style of wardrobe, with dress and tux and so on, rather than the traditional Hakama and Kimono combination which we had 2 years ago.

I bet you will look neat, she will not be able to take her eyes of you, there I am sure, also will Bolt probably warn you anyways, you know how possessive and worried he can be over Himawari.

It´s so much that it is already annoying again, still it seems to not truly bother Hima-chan any bit, I think she even kind of enjoys it.

But if you really want to have a chance with her, you should show her, that you easily can replace Bolt on her side, that you can defend her equally well.

Treat her well, spoil her a bit, simply make you guys having a good time and everything should be okay!" I explained.

"Yes that is right, thanks sis, i´m fully pumped up to show Himawari of how awesome I am!" Katsuo-stated.

"Do that Bro, anyways here is my last advice for you:

Refrain yourself from making unjustified and wrong claims, don´t tell her you can do things, which in reality you can´t and don´t make promises you cannot hold, only to impress her.

Be honest, this is way more upturning, than to be later blamed as a liar!" I stated.

"I will keep that in mind Nee-san!" he said.

"Anyways we got to hurry, if we still want to get towards Bolt before we depart for Chouchou´s and Shikadai´s!" I explained.

"Yeah you are right, well then, see you at the gate!" He said before he walked off to his room.

"Sarada-sweetheart, are you guys home?" I heard moms voice.

"Yes, i´m here mom!" I stated.

"Aah there you are, here this I wanted to give you, its from me and your father!" Mom stated, as she gave me two packets.

"Thanks but…, what is that?" I asked.

"It is your dress for tonight, honeybee, I had a bet with your father, if he wins I would have to run hundred rounds around the villa in a sexy Playnin-bunny outfit!" Mom stated and I shivered at this imagination, it was way too perverted.

"Dad sure is a closet pervert isn´t he?" I asked.

"Indeed my dear he always does so cool, but actually there is a massive pervert lingering in him!" Mom stated smiling, though it was a faked one, which I saw right through, dad was not interested in such things, not in the slightest.

"Anyways, since I had won he had to buy with me a dress for your second Date, and since I know that you like black and red quite a lot, we bought you a red dress with matching red shoes, black knee-socks and gloves…, and some hot pieces of Black lingerie, I tell you, your father almost died as he stood in the lingerie shop!" Mom stated as she laughed and I chuckled imagining it as well.

"Why did you bought lingerie for me in the first place, not that I am not grateful, but I don´t think that anything will happen which makes Bolt even getting a glimpse of my underwear at all!" I stated blushing deep red, what if my fantasy become true indeed, this lingerie might be helpful.

"Well you never know, you guys are adolescent and in puberty, also will you guys be alone at least once, when all of you couples will have some nice hours alone as lovers, I don´t say something shall happen, but it might be!" Mom stated with a smug grin.

"Geez you are just like dad, bet you are actually a closet pervert yourself aren´t you!" I stated, still flustered.

I admit, I had secretly wished for something like this, to happen, still I wasn´t mentally prepared for letting it become too sexual with Bolt at least not now so early…., or was I?

What about those fantasies and thoughts which made me drooling and moaning, as Bolt told me the exact same thing, at least a bit of groping and fondling must be in it tonight.

We went through so much for our love, so I think Bolt deserves a little reward.

"You are thinking about it aren´t you, my little book!" Mom stated, with that annoying grin of her as I blushed more from second to second.

"Raaaah, i´m too young for this!" I stated with a huff.

"You think, as I was your age all sorts of perverted stuff was running through my brain, whenever I thought about your father, at least some years after the war.

I admit, after the first years this was quickly pushed into the deepest corner of my brain, making place for concern and sheer worry, about his long absence.

Later it turned to annoyance and wrath as he impregnated me and left me all alone to deal with it, not that I am not happy to have you kids, believe me I am.

But this sheer cowardice of him and then his entire personality, as we saw each other again after 9 years, it just made me so mad!" Mom stated and I remembered the memories about her outburst at that day.

"It was the drop which made the barrel overflowing, I was so angry at him and the whole rest of the entire year I kicked his sorry ass practically around, for him to make up for all the years he had abandoned us.

Still ever since he´s back, he seems so annoyed all the time…, I know that it never was in his mind to stay here at all and I am actually really sorrowful about that.

I feared that he would leave me alone again, but ever since Naruto made this ultimatum, the fear that he might runs away again was blown into oblivion.

I knew, after Bolt´s speech, that his pride would not allow it to him, to go away and leave us anymore, and fortunately he has enough to do with raising Katsuo to a fine Ninja, which gets him of his need of traveling!" Mom stated and I was reminded of the fight they had at Dad´s return, 5 years ago.

"Mom, if Dad would have the choice without consequences, would he staying with us or traveling around, what do you mean?" I asked her.

"Honestly…., I don´t know what he would chose, I admit, I always tell myself that he stays here for our sake, but this is more my own wish than any clear intention of him…, Sasuke has always been hard to read, now even more than during our childhood.

I always wished that I might can show him to truly love again….., I-I…, I-I don´t even know if he actually loves me anyways, I always tell myself that he does…., after all he gave me you and Katsuo, but I guess, I am only kidding myself.

To be honest, your Father never honestly once said that he loved me, at least not, when I don´t count the two times he told me that, before we had intercourse and even though I know that he did not meant it fully, I cannot forget him.

No matter what I do and no matter what he´s doing, I just cannot stop loving him, I asked myself a long time ago, if I might have mental problems…?

I even considered myself to go in psychic therapies, to get myself treatment…, but then you came and I knew I had to stay strong no matter what.

I was determined to raise you, to become a good mother for our child…., even if the whole world would have shunned me for it.

In a way, I admit, I hoped that Sasuke might finally choses me as his one and only, if he knows he has a daughter with me.

But to be honest he only ever said that he loved you, that you guys are his precious children.

He never called me precious ever before.

As cruel as this might sound, but I was jealous of you guys, even though he only knew you recently, you got his entire attention and care….., still next to all this jealousy I was glad, simply glad that he accepted you, cared about you and loved you for who you are.

Through this, I even managed to survive the fact that Sasuke never felt much but perhaps friendship for me.

Even though he only used me to relive his lust, I tricked myself in believing that I could be more to him than a friend.

I always was afraid, for the entire first 11 years that he would someday arrive with another girl.

The sole fact that kept me mentally strong, was your guy´s love and the care of Naruto and Hinata!" Mom stated and even though she shed not a single tear, her eyes were filled with endless sorrow.

All I could do was to embrace her and show her at least my love.

"I admit, seeing all the others around me, marrying one by one and being happy, it made me jealous, especially the strong love-bond between Hinata and Naruto.

Seeing them both together made me angry and full of sorrow but I always hid it behind a mask…, I longed for something like this, being loved, desired and carried on hands, I kept dreaming and fantasizing about such a love with Sasuke.

I was buff as I heard about the two prices Bolt got for defeating Sasuke, I was glad that Sasuke was not allowed to ever butt into your love life again…., I wanted you kids to at least find true love in a partner, who knows how to cherish this love.

I knew Bolt since he was a baby, I saw him growing, I saw him training even while making pranks, one might not see it, but he not only did these things to lure his father out.

He trained his stealth forces, when he managed to paint the Hokage mountain without anyone noticing him at first, even though it were more guards there than before.

And whenever he was caught, he trained to predict from where his father might come and his physical speed when running away!" Mom stated with a chuckle and I remembered that day as he painted the Hokage Mountain during the Gokage council-meeting.

"I witnessed how he was becoming stronger, I saw him becoming mentally and physically a man, beside of his virginity of course.

That will be your job!" Mom joked and I blushed.

"Anyway, what I want to say is, that I saw your love blossoming from the very first grain, and once again I was reminded of my own longing.

That was the main reason of why I was so angry at your father yesterday, for trying to destroy your love, I saw myself in you, and I didn´t wanted you to end up like me, striving for the love of someone you might never get.

In that one moment I hated your father more than everything, he might not have told you but I have letting him sleeping in the garden, Lady Katsuyu made sure that he could not enter the house!" Mom stated with an evil, sinister smirk, which made me shivering.

"Mom, please be honest, are we, Katsuo and I, children of love or lust?" I asked after a while and I honestly wanted to break in tears but I couldn´t.

"I-I-I….., I- I don't know….., all I can tell you, is that I love you two more than everything, more than my own life…, but I have no idea what your father felt while he impregnated me!" Mom stated with a sorrowful glance, in her eyes I could see the sheer pain my question brought her, a question she had perhaps asked herself over and over again.

"I love you too mommy!" I stated with a honest voice, pressing myself strongly on her.

"No matter what you will always be my precious daughter!" Mom explained.

"And you will always be my beloved mother!" I replied.

"Anyways enough of this chit chat, you better get in gear if you want to get towards Bolt´s in time!" Mom stated drying our tears.

"Yeah, alright I will get Katsuo, I will simply dress at Bolt´s!" I stated and mom nodded.

"I will make myself ready as well, Naruto has invited us for celebrating mine and your father's engagement at Ichiraku´s with all our friends!" Mom stated smiling weakly.

"Well this surely will be awkward for Dad!" I stated.

"I bet it will!" mom replied with a smile.

"Anyways see you later!" I stated.

"Yeah see you!" Mom replied, as I turned around and left for the gate.

"Hey sis, wooaah, why aren´t you dressed?" Katsuo asked.

"Katsuo listen to me very closely!" I stated, as I packed his shoulders.

"What´s wrong sis?" My Brother asked confused.

"We will make father dating Mom, and I mean really dating, before the marriage he shall be completely crazy for her.

The marriage shall be Mom´s happiest day in her life, but that cannot be if Dad is forcing himself to smile, he shall be able to smile, like mother, from full heart and full love, this marriage has to be a success, Mom deserves to be loved, and we will make Dad loving mom!" I stated.

"You think that´s a good idea, will it not make anything even more complicated between them both, also how shall we do that, we know close to nothing about Dad to make him able to love mom, you know perhaps some things more now, but will all you know manage to make Dad loving her?" Katsuo asked.

"…., No, honestly it would help not in the slightest, all what I have seen was that Dad was a real scumbag, no matter the pain he encountered, there are things which just were totally unnecessary and which can´t easily be forgiven, even if others are saying this.

Still I admit, I have no idea how it is to lose your entire clan, I only know how it feels, to be inches before losing the most beloved person in your life and even if I witnessed all this injustice which he later brought, I still have to say, that I kind off understand father, at least for his wish for revenge against our uncle.

But the rest later, is something I cannot clearly understand in the slightest, why did he attacked Konoha´s ninjas, why did he helped Akatsuki, these are things I have no idea about.

If I shall be honest, I have no idea of how I shall think about Dad anymore!" I stated.

"Dad is strong and amazing, he is my idol, I want to be just like him…, these were the words I said 5 years ago, I still remember clearly…, I was just so glad Dad was finally back and taught me so much…, but even I experienced how much hatred the townspeople held against him, even more than against us during our childhood.

This immense hatred against him, I always asked myself what happened back then, I researched and found a few articles about him, in them only stood that he had left the town, there neither stood why nor what he has done before he finally re-entered, to be honest I have found close to nothing at all.

But you know it, right, you know what happened?" Katsuo asked.

"Yes, yes I do know it, things which better remained hidden from me, maybe I still would like dad more, just like before.

But ever since I saw these memories, it´s hard to tell which way I shall feel, I ponder between disgust or hatred!" I Stated.

"So why…, why do you then want him and Mom to marry, if he´s such a scumbag?" Katsuo asked me confused.

"Mom loves dad, no matter what, and I want to see her happy, I want to see her smiling, really smiling, smiling from all of her heart….., after all this time of hidden wrath and anguish, after all these smile-masquerades, which hid her true feelings, she deserves to find a piece of luck.

Bolt has been my light, not only since after these 2 years, but ever since our birth.

Mom wanted always for us both to be and become happy, so it´s only fair than we make her happy as well!" I explained.

"I see!" Katsuo only replied.

"I will help you, after all it´s for the best!" He stated.

"Thanks bro, anyways let´s get towards Bolt´s!" I stated.

"Sure!" Katsuo replied.

And so we made our way over meeting up with Bolt and Himawari.

Part 3/ Of pervy thoughts and dirty showers, a strange offer.

Meanwhile at the Uzumaki-Clan´s villa, Bolt´s Pov:

I was taking a shower, washing me very neatly, from head to toe, every part was cleansed thoroughly.

I had a date with Sarada later, so everything has to be neat, Mom and Dad came back home with a package, with a Black tux and Black shoes in it, a present for me for beating Sasuke-kun.

He said it was for me to look neat for my date with Sarada.

So all what was needed was to scrub myself off, from all the dirt of today.

"Tonight is the night!" I said as I was thinking about what Sarada said earlier, about that I should do something for her, I only can think about dirty stuff though.

"Damn she´s just too cute!" I stated, as I bashed my head lightly against the wall.

All this thinking about her left me hopelessly horny.

And of course I had a major hard-on right now, with something so rock-hard I hardly can face Sarada, or anyone at all.

So I first have to get rid of that thing.

"Good thing I still have that one picture in my mind of Sarada in sexy undergarments!" I though, as I closed my eyes and thought about that picture.

"Sarada in white undergarments, white panties with a small red ribbon and a white bra with frills!" I muttered blushing and drooling.

I was thinking the way she always lolling in the sand at the beach in her sexy Bikini, evolving it, through my dirty fantasy, towards a massively perverted daydream.

But after I began to jerk, I could not stop.

The flowing water took most of my hearing sense, along with my shouts, so I didn´t heard the squeaking of the Bathroom door, and my closed eyes prevented me from recognizing the shifting of the douche-curtain.

"Oh god Sarada…., oh yes…, oh god, oh yes, more, do me more…., don´t stop…., gosh i´m coming, i´m coming Sarada…., I-I-I-I´M COMING…., OH SARADAAAAAAAA!" I shouted in pleasure and was ejaculating in the douche.

I was considerably quite out of breath after wards, I cleaned myself of, before I closed the water.

"Ah that felt good, but now I better get dressed or I will be late…, huh why´s the curtain open…, oh well beats me, it´s not like someone comes in here anyways thanks to the shield on the door!" I stated with a chuckle.

"Aaaaah that felt good, I feel really refreshed now…, geeez, Sarada´s just so cute, thinking of her always makes me horny, if she would know this, she definitely would kill me though, hahahaha…., well I guess that wouldn´t be so funny after all!" I laughed out loud.

I grabbed after my towel and dried my face before I stepped out of the douche.

I went to the sink and began to wash my face with cold water, I brushed my teeth, used mouth water, fresh peppermint of course, and deodorant, as well as a tiny bit of perfume with the fragrance of some kind of flower.

"Feeeeewwwweeeewww, who's that hot piece of candy over here, oooh sorry I forgot, that´s me!" I mumbled, whistling and striking a nice guy pose, as I looked myself in the mirror.

Nice abs, a sixpack of course, strong legs and arms, mean to hold things, or persons such as Sarada bridal-style, all in all I was quite content with my body.

"I could not help it but to recognize you!" I stated jokingly watching myself posing in the mirror...…, only to see something which didn´t belonged in here at all, at least not now.

"Woooaah shit, how long are you in here?" I shouted as I turned around and faced none other but Sarada Uchiha, who sat on the toilet, facing me with a flustered face.

"Are we having fun Boruto?" She asked, her glance shifting from the floor over to me and back.

"What are you doing in here and how long are you here anyways?" I asked again in terror picking my towel back up and quickly put it around my waist.

"I came in here 10 minutes ago and I've been in here since you started to give off some strong rutting calls, at first I was suspicious because I only heard pained moaning, so I thought at least.

I opened the curtain and there you where, jerking off at the thought of me with that hot piece of long, thick meat.

That tasty stick!" Sarada stated her eyes scanning my covered crotch hungrily, there has a lust awoken in her eyes, which truly scared me for my bare life.

She licked her lips multiple times, trembling in lust, her hands gripped her knees forcefully, all to restrain her desire to jump me right here right now.

"Luckily you didn´t see nor hear me, I was inches before going back out but then I told myself I better don´t get out now, if someone sees me I will be in deep shit, so I decided to wait until you are out, hiding me!" Sarada only replied, with an insatiable glance.

Her rational logic spoke for her…, not her brain and body though, they were as honest as they could get, and she wanted me.

Oooh yes and how she wants, she wants me preferably right now on the spot, I could see it in her eyes, this lust was so strong, that it practically radiated over to me.

"Geez did you not saw the` please do not disturb´ shield on the door?" I asked her confused and aroused to no end as well, of course my crotch stood out like the mast of a ship.

"Yeah still your mother said that it would be Himawari, who´s in here!" Sarada explained.

"Ah I see, well we changed since Shana called Himawari all of a sudden, probably girls stuff, so she told me to go in first!" I explained and she nodded her glance still casted towards my covered crotch, while she mumbled something unheard over and over again.

I think she muttered `I want it, I want it, it´s gonna be mine, my meat-stick´.

There was a hot and uncomfortably feeling in my pants, it yearned to be released and my mind yearned me, to take advantage of the situation and fondle and grope Sarada.

"Anyways, look like you had a lot of fun…., what were you thinking about…., what kind of perverted fantasy did you have, as you masturbated to the thought of me….., me in my undergarments stroking you, or in a bunny outfit giving you a boob job….., or perhaps me in my Cat-sage form, jerking you off with my tail?" She asked and so many perverted fantasies came crashing onto me by these words

Needless to say, that my boner grew and my nose began to bleed.

"Do I need one specifically, honestly I want all of them to become true…., I just need to think about you and i´m getting horny already!" I stated, as I put on a bath-coat trying to hide my unbearable hormones.

"I see, so being in your surrounding makes you already horny…., as hard as a rock….., drooling for my Butt and my body, am I right!" She asked, as she came closer to me, with a panther-like stride.

"Don´t come near, I will burst I swear, it already hurts!" I stated, as I tried to back away, but all the way I could go, was back in the douche.

"Well shall we try something then?" She asked me with a purr, as she traced her finger from my lips, over my chest, down towards my stomach and maybe even further if she wanted.

"What have you in mind?" I asked, her as she pressed herself against me.

"How about we both jump in the douche together!" Sarada asked seductively.

Wait a second, did she really just suggested that we….. no fucking way, this can´t be happening…, dreams don´t become so easily true…., or am I wrong.

"Well if you insist!" I stated flushing, and she purred as I took of her glasses, put them away and picked her up bridal style.

"Wuaaah, Bolt, what are you doing?" She asked in surprise.

"Well we going to take a shower together, as you asked for!" I said, as I walked into the douche and let the water rain over us, drenching us in seconds.

"Bolt no, my phone is getting destroyed!" Sarada stated in horror.

"NinGear is a brand, which only makes waterproof mobile phones, especially for ninjas, so no fear your phone will not get destroyed but we do better lay it away!" I said, as I took it out of her pocket and put it on the cupboard next to the sink, where her glasses were.

"And now just enjoy it!" I said, as I kissed her neck.

"Hmmmmm…., Bolt!" She moaned in pure bliss.

"How do you feel Sarada?" I asked after a while of passionate making out.

"Amazing, keep going, make my heart go fuzzy and my mind going blank…., I beg you Bolt, please give me pleasure!" She demanded.

"Your wish is my order!" I stated, as I opened her jacket, revealing a white Blouse which was already see-through, under it I found some sexy red lingerie, hiding the most precious parts of her delicate shape.

"Hmmm, I like what I see, very, very much!" I stated with a growl, as I traced my kisses down her shoulder which I freed.

"Same here!" She replied, as she stroke over my chest, steeled from a lot of training.

"Come here!" I stated, as I picked her up by her well-shaped butt, stroking it lovingly, she blushed but this time she did not backed away.

I secured my feet with chakra, to not slip away.

"Bolt!" Sarada moaned and drooled as I kept stroking her butt, kissing her belly, while she supported herself on my shoulders arching her back to give m access to her entire body.

The position we were in was considerably dirty, since my crotch was pressing up against her love-hill, giving me some cute moans , whenever I moved.

"Can I see them?" I asked, as I kissed her décolleté.

"Bolt aren´t we perhaps crossing the line right now, I mean we are not old enough for having sex, are we?" She asked worried.

"Well if we are old enough to absolve A- and S-rank missions, getting us day after day in life-danger, I think we are also old enough to have sex, right?!" I asked.

"I guess so…, but, what if I get pregnant, I mean…, would you even like to have kids with me, at this age and if it happens…, will you stand by my side?" Sarada asked with a sorrowful glance.

"I am really hurt that you have to ask me that Sarada, I am not your father, I won´t leave you, ever, especially not when I know that we have children together, that you even doubt me for a second, was really hurtfully!" I stated with true hurt.

I was letting her back down and she blushed with teary eyes.

"I´m sorry!" She whispered as she turned around and was about to leave, but before she could I embraced her.

It was not that I ever considered of leaving her, but after I know what her father did to her mother, I would be a real asshole to ever even intent, to do the very same thing to her.

"I´m sorry, i´m so sorry that I said that, I am such an idiot, please forgive me Bolt, I …, I didn´t wanted to ruin the mood, and I don´t ever believed, that you would do that…!

But I was afraid, if I would be pregnant, how would you react…., would you be glad, would you be happy, or angry at me, for ruining your carrier of becoming a hokage…., putting a stop to it so early…, would you be disgusted by me, for giving birth so early in my life, while i´m practically a child myself, or….?" Sarada lamented.

"SARADA; STOP IT" I yelled and she backed away in fear at the wall of the douche.

I slayed my fist on each side of the wall behind her to calm down.

"How can you say that… how can you think of me that way…, I love you more than everything Sarada, more than my own life and I mean it, I would die a thousand deaths for you.

I never came into my mind to be angry at you for getting pregnant with my child…, I would be honoured if you would be the mother of my children, and I don´t care when we become kids, as long as they are strong, healthy and kind to others.

I am all glad that you even consider me to become the father of your children…, if you would give birth tomorrow, I would be totally hyped, and I would be more than glad to take care of them…, Sarada you are the girl I want to marry.

You have always been there, whenever I needed you, I liked you because you were different, you were honest to me, always, no matter what…, even if we were not always of the same opinion, or on the same side, doesn't that mean that I ever would regret to got to know you.

You are my life Sarada, my heart, my life, my soul, it all belongs to you!" I said to her and with every word she began to cry more, I hoped it were tears of joy.

"I am so not worthy of your love!" She cried bitterly.

"Sarada, if someone is worthy for being loved by me, than it´s definitely you!" I told her as I raised her chin, wiped her tears away and kissed her long and passionately.

"Oooh Bolt!" She moaned, as I kissed her neck.

"I will be glad to be the father of our child, there would be not much which could possibly make me happier!" I explained to her.

"What would make you happier?" She asked.

"I would not say that it might makes me happier, but at least equal as happy…, the day when I can rightfully call you Mrs. Uzumaki!" I stated and she teared up again, pressing herself on me.

"I would love that too, my heart!" She stated.

"Well if you want I can tell my father to plan for two weddings?" I stated with a chuckle.

"I guess that will have to wait a bit, at least until next year!" She replied.

"Time and location, you name it!" I said to her.

"I will…, anyways…., if you are not too much turned off by me…, you think we can resume where we stopped!" She asked with a deep crimson blush.

"Sure but how did you got this idea, of having sex so suddenly, in the first place?" I asked.

"Yeah well…., it was because…., you know…., after what we saw in those memories…., I was kinda afraid, what if we still have no kids during this time, what if we not even have married due to the war.

I knew there are so many things I will regret when I shall die so early, and I wanted to at least sleeping once with you, before that moment comes…, I want you to make me your woman Bolt, I want you to mark me with your seed, make me undeniably yours forever!" She stated with determined eyes.

"I want to….!"

"Say no more, it will be an honour to me, to take your virginity!" I explained as i resumed to kiss and fondle her.

My hands slowly drifted down to her butt, cherishing the feeling of her skin and the silk under my hands as I touched her sexy ass.

My pole was still sticking out, resumed to stroking her covered `hill of lust´

"Mmmmahhhhmmm, Bolt, …, please squeeze it….., my butt, I love it…, squeeze it more…., earlier it felt so good as well…., muuuaaaahhhh…., but I could not have it to moan loudly…. Mmmhhhmm gosh…., while the others were right before the door!" Sarada stated, moaning in pleasure as I took of her skirt and her blouse leaving her only in knee socks, string tanga and bra.

"I will see everything of you, and I will cherish every second!" I whispered with a growl and I felt her shivering.

"We are shuddering, before the beautiful!" I sang to her.

"Then let me make you feel good as well!" She said and her hands reached for my crotch….

"Bolt or Sarada, please hurry up I have to get ready too!" We heard the loud voice of Himawari shouting from the Bathroom door, very clearly to be honest.

"Shit she´s coming in here!" I whispered as I froze in our state, this will be really awkward is he sees us in this kind of position.

Sarada´s hands where on my legs, under the towel, inches away from my most precious body part, while mine were on her free tits, fondling and squeezing them, while I was sucking on one of her nipple.

"Sarada, i´m sorry I got to go, if she find me here, we will be in a lot of trouble later!" I whispered as she took a towel, nodding sorrowfully.

"We continue tonight!" I whispered to her after a long passionate kiss, before I was about to teleport away.

"Bolt only…..., please let me touch it quickly!" She asked, she looked with a strange longing at me, but after all I had been fondling her tits, so I think it´s her good right to make it equal.

"But make it quick, it will be really awkward if she walks in on us!" I stated and she nodded, I felt how her hands reached under the towel and took a hold of my meat-stick, stroking it a bit.

"It´s warm, and rock-hard, and it´s pulsating…, I hope we can meet each other again later, little friend!" Sarada muttered and it was really strange to see her talking to Little Bolt.

"Geez what´s taking you so long?" Himawari asked behind the curtain.

"Shit, I got to go!" I whispered, before I had to leave Sarada, seconds before the curtain was drawn.

Sarada´s Pov:

"Sorry it´s me Himawari, Bolt´s already in his room dressing, I will be done in a second, could you please wait outside?" I asked with a blush, sticking my head out.

"Hmmm, I didn´t saw him departing thought and I thought I have heard his name a minute ago!" Himawari stated doubtingly.

"Uhmm, well that could be…., me…, you know, I was, uhmm!" I tried to find the right words, while fidgeting.

"Don´t tell me you were masturbating?" Himawari asked bluntly.

"Whaaaaa…, noooo…., don´t say it, that´s not it….!" I stated embarrassed, while Himawari was utterly shocked.

"I´m so sorry for interrupting you, I will wait until you´re done!" Himawari replied with a light blush, as she ran out of the bathroom.

"But that's not it…, geez!" I stated.

"Bolt you sexy, dirty, little dick, why did you ran off and left me in this mess!" I thought enraged and aroused.

"His hands…, they felt so warm and …, so good!" I stated embracing myself after I took my clothes.

I remembered the feeling of Bolt´s hands clearly, his hot kisses, nibbles and his stroke over my butt, and especially his…..

And before I knew any better my hands, which traced over all the spots Bolt had stroked travelled deeper and found their target and I was in for a quick play of my hands.

Part 4/ The silent death, the Death-trap in Konohagakure.

After some time, outside of Konoha.

Karin´s Pov:

Evening was coming fast, and while everyone was celebrating the starlight festival in the town, I packed many things together which I gathered for my friends and my son, food, clothes, weapons, enough to survive for the next few weeks, even some souvenirs.

After a month of chilling and relaxing, it was time for me to get back to where my heart belonged to, ever since almost 20 years, in the company of my two and a half men.

Still, I was planning to return, as long as they would come with me at least, if not, then I will just have to go with them, no matter what, I cannot live without them at least not for more than a month.

I laid a note on the kitchen-table of the villa, where Hinata-san cooked together with her sister for the entire household.

Nagato-san and lady Mito hadn´t been there since weeks though, not that they were there often anyway, no one knew what they did or where they went, but most of them assumed that they would probably be with Neherit.

It was strange to know that we lived with resurrected people, who had died for more than 20 years ago, together.

But I was used to strange phenomenon, for I worked too long under Orochimaru, to be highly surprised about such things anymore.

"Well then, I got anything, I should go now…, although I will miss this place, it has been something different for a change…., anyways let´s go!" I stated looking over the kitchen admiring the wooden furniture, as I made my way out of the villa, the streets around were rather silent, still I could hear the festivals music and the laughter of the people until here.

I was lucky to have my Aura and Chakra-tracking ability, with which I was able to tell, if there are people in my surrounding or not.

An ability my son has inherited as well.

Akihito was in many aspects and in character more similar to me than to his father…, he had rather his physical appearance from Suigetsu.

The name was chosen because he was born on the warmest and brightest day of the summer, I searched him…., Suigetsu wanted to call him…., how was it again…., oh well never mind, something with -getsu behind.

Suigetsu helped me to give birth, cooling and heating water which he summoned, to either cooling my forehead or for the baby, not that either of us knew much about the right measurements to take, if someone was giving birth…, but surprisingly Jugo did.

He said that he learned it from his mother, before he, in a fit of rage, destroyed half of his village and was banished and chased out.

Tonight it was warm, the moon shone bright, but in a strange blood-red colour, the night also had something strange and even though it was summer, it seemed to be colder than usual.

Also it seemed that the air was polluted by strange feeling of incredible strong dark energy.

I felt something lurking in the dark, but I had no idea where exactly it was, my radar was always precise but this time, it seemed to come from everywhere, somehow from all around us.

"I better get out of here, somehow this is really uncanny!" I thought.

I was wandering through the streets and everywhere where I came I saw dead animals, birds, stray cats and dogs.

"Just what is going on here?" I asked shocked, as I looked at a dead cat, it had no visible injuries and it also didn´t seemed to be poisoned.

It was more…, as if something took her life-force and soul.

"Somehow I think that there is something in Konoha, which should not be here!" I thought, as I walked around a corner and saw many stray dogs lying there, some were breathing weakly and others were already dead.

"Is this a gas, something that kills animals but is not dangerous towards humans?" I though, as I witnessed how a poor dog breathed his life out, even though I tried to heal it.

It died in my arms.

"What if Akihito and the others are getting affected by it too…., oh no, I got to hurry!" I mumbled, as I rushed towards the gate.

"Hmm it´s somehow awfully silent here, too silent for my taste!" I stated fearfully, this was really not normal anymore, I looked around but could not spot anyone.

The Gate guards post was empty, from what I could see, even though it usually was day and night filled with Chunin, mostly Kotetsu-san and his Partner, Izumo-san.

"Hello?" I asked, as I looked around.

"Help!" I heard a faint voice.

"Hello!" I said louder.

"Help, please …, over here!" I heard the voice again, it came out of the Gate guard post.

"Hmm….. oh my…, Kotetsu-san, Izumo-san!" I stated, as I saw that he and his partner were lying on the ground, Izumo seemed to be deeply unconscious and Kotetsu was barely awake anymore too.

"What happened?!" I asked.

"I don´t really know, I just felt so powerless all of a sudden, perhaps we were ambushed from behind, and tranquilized, still I feel even more powerless than even before, as I began to feel lightheaded!" Kotetsu-san explained.

"How´s Izumo?" He asked.

"Looks bad, his pulse is very low, we have to bring him in the hospital.

"But how, I cannot move?" Kotetsu-san stated.

"I will get help!" I stated.

"That is impossible, everybody is at the festival and it are 3 miles from here to the festival, and 5 miles to the hospital and back, and if you are right, then Izumo will not make it much longer!" He stated.

"You are right, I can try to fuel his powers but he still needs a hospital, if only I had some strong boys here!" I stated, as I used medical Ninjutsu to help.

I only knew them both from some errands, which I made for Naruto-san for which he paid me good, but I could not simply let them die.

In a way I got a glimpse of how it would be as a Ninja of Konoha, I bet that were tests.

By these chances I always had a little chat with them, whenever I was back, it was not much to say to that, we merely were acquaintances to each other, not close enough to considered friends though.

Still it would be bad for them to die, at least in my opinion, they have a good potential of becoming Jonin.

"If only I had someone coming here casually, which I can ask for help!" I mumbled.

"You asked for us sweetheart!?" Suddenly a voice said from behind.

"Uuuaaah…., good grief, you idiot…., you almost gave me a heart attack!" I shouted at that idiot, called Suigetsu, my boyfriend and lover, as well as the father of my son, who just happened to have appeared behind me out of nowhere.

I was so occupied and concentrated on Izumo´s chakra, that I didn´t even felt him approaching me, and with his silent stealth technique he was a master at work, no wonder than he was called a prodigy assassin before he was caught by Orochimaru.

"Hehe well I intended to surprise you, anyways what´s going on here, on the way here we found these guys over there!" he pointed at some guys which Jugo, who just walked through the gate, had on his shoulders.

"Hey Jugo…..,wait where´s Akihito?" I asked, as I looked around worried.

"I´m here mom!" I heard it and looked to see him growing out of puddle on the floor.

"Thank you lord…, anyways what with these guys?" I asked, pointing at the two on Jugo´s shoulders.

"They lied in a wagon on the way towards Konoha in the forest, the donkey that pulled the wagon had died and they were close to dying too.

Akihito manage to help them as best as he could, but they better get in the hospital!" Suigetsu stated, ruffling our son´s hair with purest pride.

Despite of his attitude was Suigetsu really a good father, so I was not afraid of giving him the custody from time to time, even for an entire month.

"You said their donkey died, was he injured?" I asked having a strange feeling, all of a sudden.

"No not at all, it was as if he had just fallen over and died, what do you think, maybe a heart-attack, a brain tumour, or something different?!" Suigetsu suggested confused.

"So it is as with the dogs!" I mumbled.

"Dogs, which dogs?" Suigetsu asked confused.

"On my way through the town, I saw many stray animals lying dead on the street, a dog even died right in my arms despite my efforts to save him, but none of them had any injuries.

I thought it may be a gas, which does not harm humans, but I guess this theory we can forget, regarding Izumo-san´s and Kotetsu-san´s condition, and the peoples you have found, anyways we got to hurry and get these guys to the hospital.

Whatever happens here might happen in town as well, it would be better for our image to not let them die!" I stated.

"Which image, what are you talking about?" Suigetsu asked confused, looking at Jugo and Akihito who shrugged.

"The Hokage asked me if I want to live and work here as a Jonin of Konohagakure, together with you guys, if we accept, we are protected by him and don´t have to hide from any of the five villages anymore.

Akihito even could get in a team with children of his age, I am willing to do that, but I have to ask you guys first about your opinion!" I explained.

"We don´t need to run and hide anymore?" Jugo asked interested.

"Yes we will be under the protection of Hi no Kuni and so also under the protection of the Five nations, according to the Hokage´s words, and I am certain we can trust him.

After all, he let me live for one month in his villa, with his wife and children, if he wouldn´t have trusted me, he would have most likely never done that, right?" I stated.

"Indeed not, I would say!" Jugo stated.

"And if we join we get fresh food and a place to live, a roof over our heads?" Suigetsu asked.

"Indeed, Naruto, I mean the Hokage, wants to unite the entire Uzumaki-Clan which is still alive, and built it up from anew.

So he wants to get as many of us into the villa, there are even some unexpected personalities there!" I stated.

"And you think I could make friends this way?" Akihito stated.

"I´m sure about it, I think you get in a team with two girls, but beware, they are anything but easy to handle, although both are really nice, still you better don´t let your adolescent mind get the better of you!" I stated, as I looked at him with a stern look.

"Of course not!" Akihito stated pouting, while I ruffled his hair with a smile.

"Then everything will surely be alright Aki!" I said playfully.

"Anyways we better get this guys to the hospital, or else they die on us!" Jugo stated.

"You probably right, also we have to tell someone about all those dead animals, can´t have it that some kind of illnesses will begin to lurk around!" I said and they nodded.

"And afterwards you can tell us in all calm, how it comes that you simply vanished and left us all alone for an entire month.

I mean it´s not as if we had a fight or anything which made you doing that!" Suigetsu stated with a frown.

"Yeah i´m sorry…., but I had no idea what to do…, I mean I was in enemies' territory, so I thought, but I was treated like a guest, as If we never would have been chased in the first place, at least not by Konohagakure.

Somehow with all those people in the villa, it just…, felt home…, I just had no desire to leave early, even though I knew you probably were worried about me!" I stated with down casted eyes.

We walked through the town, Suigetsu was holding Kotetsu on one arm and Izumo, with the support of me on the other.

"I see!" Suigetsu stated.

"I´m sorry Sui, it was not right from me, but well I was about to get back to you anyways…, by the way how did you found out where I was anyways?" I asked.

"Aki said you suddenly disappeared, after doing monologues and fighting against air, he traced your chakra, even though he could do that, he had no visual on you.

We followed it until the gate, and we were making plans how to get inside, but then we saw you, after some days, going out with teams of Jonin and Chunin, we thought that you were brought to somewhere in a prison, we followed you in order to get you out of there, but you went back to Konohagakure after a while.

This happened more often, then we came to the conclusion that you might have been brainwashed and we wanted to talk to you, but had to wait for an opportunity, and well today we decided to get in.

That was an hour before we found these guys, which were about to die, and you with the Gate guards!" Suigetsu stated.

"Yeah it´s a long story, I will tell you all about it tomorrow, at least when we survive tonight, whatever will come, okay?" I asked him and he nodded.

"Well then, let´s go!" I said and so we kept on marching through the Town towards the hospital, passing the streets where the people were celebrating, without a care and clue of what was going on.

Part 5/ Love-doctor Chouchou, Memories of broken hearts, the only light in my life.

Meanwhile, a few hours before, at Chouchou´s home:

Sarada´s Pov:

The girls came one by one to my home and it do lasted the entire half hour before everyone was there.

"So now that we are finally all here, let´s have a nice 1 and a half hour until the boys are coming, time to fresh up the gossip-kitchen!" I stated excitedly.

"So Senpou, how is it going with Inojin?" I asked.

"Uhm good?!" She replied.

"A-and, c´mon don´t tell me it´s only good!" I stated doubtingly.

"Well, we only date since 2 weeks, there has nothing more happened so far, we live just like every other day before, only that we use nicknames and hold hands more often, but that´s it!" Senpou explained.

"Didn´t you tried to make more out of your dates, like kissing?" I asked.

"Well we do kiss, but…!"

"But what…, c´mon spit it out!" I stated, already a bit annoyed.

"Well it´s not so easy, I mean Inojin and I, we always only had been friends, hiding our feelings, we never were so close like Bolt and Sarada, or you and Shikadai, we were occasional teammates and good friends but that was it…, and then, we confessed our honest love after almost dying.

No matter which way I turn it, I don´t know how to show him more that I love him!" Senpou explained while she started to make her hair.

"It´s not so easy!" She only said.

"Well it is, did you went on dates?" I asked.

"Yeah, on 5 by now!" Senpou stated proudly.

"And where did you went?" I asked.

"Well we went to the Zoo, the cinema, to a fighting show, roaming through the Uptown, going in the shopping mall or in the discotheque!" Senpou counted of her mind.

"Well that are mostly place where you like to go, did he always asked you were you want to go?" I asked.

"Well yeah!" She only replied a bit confused.

"Geez that´s not good, you have to give him the choice too, if you only always do what you want, things will get boring, try to get some differences in the routine.

I mean, you should ask him where he wants to go!" I explained.

"Yeah but, you know, whenever I ask that he only says that anywhere is fine, and then I always come up with locations in the town, rarely in a restaurant!" Senpou stated while sweat-dropping.

"Well try for once to go out in the Nature, you know Shikadai and I, we always rotate the choice of locations to go, in the nature or in the town.

One time I decide where to go and on the next date he chooses.

This way it´s not always the same, sometimes we go to the zoo, another time we go to the Nara forest and watch for wild deer's and animals.

Another time we go to the Cinema and on the next date we go swimming in the lake in the Nara-forest.

The next date we make in the shopping mall, at least when anybody of us wants to buy something, if not we simply roam the streets of the uptown, looking for interesting shops on the way, eating ice-cream.

And the next time we sit either on the roof of my house, his house or somewhere in the park watching the clouds.

We even went to camp outside in the forest, watching the stars.

All in all we always do something fun for both of us.

So try to go in the mountains or the woods, try to search for nice motives for him to draw, you know how much he loves it, why don´t you try to pose as a model.

I heard that they are currently inventing a high resolution camera, with amazing zoom and memory-capacity, let him take pictures with many locations and mostly with you, so he can draw portraits of you in all natural environment.

Don´t just spent all your free days in the town.

You know Shikadai and I, we wanted to go camping next weekend, as long as we have no mission…., why don´t you guys come with us, we will show you how to have real fun on a date…, however…, you guys don´t mind if it gets a bit loud at night?" I asked blushing.

"No not really, why do you ask?" Sarada asked.

"Well we surely will fondle and grope each other a bit!" I mumbled bluntly.

To say the faces of the others fell was an understatement, their faces were priceless.

"Oh c´mon it´s not as if you didn´t do it yourself once, at least you Senpou, right?" I asked.

"No, at least not until now!" She stated blushing.

"You got to let him on your body, at least little by little, step by step, if it only always remains by kissing and holding hands he might lose interest, although I doubt that it goes so fast by Inojin, but still.

You got to show your man what he has with you, show him a little skin!" I stated, as I put on my dress, it was a back-free black dress with transparent pale-green frills.

The bra I chose, had transparent straps so that it was not to see under my hair.

I decided to let my hair mostly open, only put in some clams to let it flow lateral.

"Dammit, that looks really good on you Chouchou!" Sarada complimented me.

"Well thank you…, anyways how about you, I mean you just survived your dads hellish trial to secure your love with Bolt, I bet the hormones are flying high right now not, is there perhaps something going to happen tonight?" I nettled her a bit.

As if on call she went deep crimson.

"I se-e!" I stated with a knowing grin.

"Well she do had some fun earlier already, so there might be not much happening!" Himawari exclaimed while, if possible, Sarada went an even deeper shade of red without becoming bloody.

"Well then, hope you know, how to ride the stallion!" I stated and she sweated uncontrollably.

"Geeez girl stop fantasizing about that now, you shall not have a wet panty right now, anyways get in the dress already, I still have to do your hair!" I stated to her.

Sarada´s pov:

Chouchou was doing my hair while I tried my best to get down from my embarrassment and my arousal.

"Anyways, about that earlier…!" She began.

"Geez Chouchou…!"

"No, not that, Baka…, geez I meant that far earlier, as this Boy arrived, how he was called again, Mito…., Mita…, Mi-Mi…., ah now I know, Mitsuki…., that was it.

Uhm, anyways, you seemed to be awfully stressed out….

Tell me what happened and I swear if it does not suit me, I will punch him to the moon!" She stated showing her muscles.

"….sigh, geez maybe you are right, I will have to speak about it anyways, or else this will always hunt me, until now only Bolt knows the whole story, but I tell you, it´s no beautiful one.

Anyways it happened some months before we got to know you, 8 years ago.

That time Mitsuki Bolt, Inojin and Shikadai as well as me were friends, the four boys were already in the elementary school together in one class.

They were friends, similar like we all are, Mitsuki was often with Bolt when he did his pranks.

He was out of some village around Konohagakure and came to train to someday be thought under the Hokage, everyone wanted that, even me, i have to admit.

Well he was the most popular Jonin of Konohagakure that time after all, beside of my Father, though…., well you know...

Anyways, Mitsuki and I we came well along, though not as well as me with Bolt and the others.

He was rather premature for his age, seeing the value of love different as we, though that does not mean that we didn´t know about true love.

Mitsuki was different in many ways, he seemed to hold a great knowledge about many things, things the rest of the class didn´t know or at least didn´t cared for that time, with this knowledge he often bragged and the girls swooned for him.

They fell clockwise for him, but as I said, Mitsuki had a whole different value of love as we know it.

For him one girl was as good as another, a lesson I should learn myself very clearly.

To that time I didn´t though much about crushes and love in general, I was happy to have my friends that was all I needed, however I soon found out that Mitsuki held a certain interest in me.

I admit that time I felt flattered, also because no matter how often I blasted him off, he always kept coming, this persistence got me, what I didn´t know was that it was not more than a game for him.

Bolt warned me that he always had new girlfriends each month, but me, I was just too happy to listen.

It was the first time someone showed interest in me, so I thought, I had no idea that time that Bolt was in love with me as well, I always thought, that to him, I would be only a good friend.

Anyways, someday as Mitsuki asked me, for practically the 1000th time, if I want to be his girlfriend I just said yes, I have no idea which devil rode me that time, but I said yes and so we became a couple.

Bolt logically was not amused about it, and I admit, he was pretty jealous that time.

The more time I spent with Mitsuki, the less time I spent with Bolt and the more we bickered.

Then as the Month was almost over, Bolt told me that I would see what I get, that I would only suffer on a broken heart, if I would remain at Mitsuki´s side, I thought that it was the ultimate betrayal of friendship that time.

I thought he was jealous of me getting a boyfriend, while he never had a relationship before, I was angry at him and I told him that he should leave me alone and butting out of my love life.

The exact same thing we told my father today.

Mitsuki and I, we met even after the month was over, all what Bolt predicted seemed to be wrong and false, and I thought that it never would happen.

Between me and Bolt however, things began more and more to break apart, a deep abyss had opened before us and we each stood on different sides and we were close to cut the bonds we had, at least so I thought that time!" I told them and each one of them was silently listening.

"It happened at the end of the 2nd month, I wanted to surprise Mitsuki with a surprise visit, well, it truly was a surprise visit to be honest.

His aunt let me in and told me that Mitsuki was in his room, she behaved kinda strange to me, she put an hand on my shoulder and squeezed it lightly, told me to stay strong and looked with a sorrowful glance at me, as if she pitied me.

I was confused but I brushed it off as nothing, so I made my way towards his room.

But before I arrived there, I heard voices from outside, the voice of him…., and the voice of a girl!" I told and they gasped.

"I thought `maybe it is his sister´, but then I remembered that he told me, that was an only child and that he lived with his aunt , I refused to believe that all what Bolt told me, all the things he accused Mitsuki of doing to his supposedly various girlfriends, would be right.

I trembled in horror as I opened the door, there I saw him, a girl on his lap while both kissed, the sight was the purest terror, I turned around and accidently crashed a vase, which let both jolting up, Mitsuki saw me and I glanced with a pained face at him, so I saw myself in his mirror at least.

I dashed out of the house on the streets and through the town, tears were killing my view.

I ran so far and so long until I arrived at an old playground, where Bolt and I used to play as we were younger, there I sat myself on the bank.

I remembered every word clearly that I heard, the girl laughed and said that `she´ truly was stupid and that the last month was like a dream coming true.

With `she´ she logically meant myself.

I sat there silently crying for a while, not minding the coldness of the night, still I soon was freezing, I was about to go a I heard steps behind me, I paralysed.

I still had red eyes from crying and I was afraid of facing anyone, so I tried to make myself as little as possible trying to melt into the darkness.

Before I knew it a jacket was wrapped around me and someone sat next to me, tacking me in his arms, I heard sighs and Hands that stroke my hair taking away the pain, I knew who it was without looking!" I told them.

"It was Bolt, right?" Himawari asked with shining eyes which were a little teary.

"Indeed, he simply sat there saying nothing at all, just holding me and giving me comfort.

After a while he opened his mouth and the first words which came out weren't, `I told you so! ´, but, `in which way shall I kill him? ´.

I was Buff, he said nothing to the massive fight we had the day before, as I accused him to be a traitor on friendship and the worst person I ever met.

I felt never more stupid than in this moment.

Logically all I could do at that moment, was apologizing for the way I treated him and that I didn´t believed him!" I told them.

"So my brother once again was your hero, geez he´s somehow always there where trouble is, simply the real hero who sails out to slay dragons and rescues the princes getting himself a name, honour and wealth!" Himawari stated with an eye roll.

"That's not true, Bolt is a real knight, and real knights do not slay dragons, but they tame them!" I stated wisely.

"Maybe you are right, however I guess there is just nothing he can´t do, he´s just simply a genius, someone who don´t needs to take much effort to be capable of something, a real prodigy after all, unlike me.

Bolt always managed to beat me at everything!" Himawari staed and I heard a minor taste of jealousy in her words.

"Are you serious?" I asked her silently, praying to have misheard, how could she say something like this.

"Well yeah, somehow he seems to always get what he wants, you, the title as strongest Genin in town, he even managed to win countless of prices for showing of his skills, he even completed a mission which was supposed to be mine and all we got was an award as good backup support.

Of course he is doing it for the fame, I mean this is rather obvious not, for a future Hokage one needs many people who knows you, who will chose you by the elections!" Himawari explained, her words were like sharp knives hidden in cotton-candy.

"NO, THAT´S NOT TRUE!" I yelled startling her.

"Woaaah calm down, what´s gotten into you!" Himawari stated confused.

"How can you say something so cruel about your own brother, do you honestly think what you say.

That he became a prodigy, because most thinks were from heaven send to him.

If you really believe this, then you don´t know your brother at all!" I stated with terrible anger.

"Bolt has always worked hard for the honour directed to him, he is so strong because he trained always, day in day out to protect everyone, especially you.

Have you ever seen, that Bolt was able to do something simply because he heard about it, no, he researches, calculate his findings about their possibility and if possible he trains them so long, mostly for weeks, around the clock, until he manages to master them, even on missions he does, when he´s free to do that.

The Hiraishin third step for example, he trained for 4 months straight, after he combined many jutsus, first researched about them and then calculate the combination of its possibility.

For this one Jutsu he first had to learn three jutsus from the first step on by each of them, then he trained to use the jutsus simultaneously, after 2 and a half month he managed to increase his speed so far, that he was able to craft each Jutsu with a time-rift of 2 second each.

4 months ago, in the battle against Orochimaru, he used the end product, the new jutsu, for the first time after having fully mastered it.

Bolt always trains hard to be as strong as he had become until now, so don´t ever think again that he is a genius, who don´t need any effort to be able to do something.

For if you think this way, you really should get yourself a piece of Bolt´s hard working character, I do it too!" I stated with a huff.

"Well that was…, intense.

But a little you got to admit, Bolt is quite the hero type!" Chouchou stated.

"Alright, to make this once and for all clear to all of you, Bolt is no one who seeks for attention, doing all these things only to be noticed as a hero, he can care less about how he´s called.

Bolt is not a hero, at least not in the sense of a person, who is seeking to be put into the limelight by anyone, Bolt is someone who always tries to preserve the good, someone, who never lets other people down, even if he runs into the danger of being self-injured.

He is someone who courageously confronts the danger and can never be beaten by someone who fully underestimates him and his entire being, he would give his own life, only to protect the lives of others.

He´s willing to help each and every person, who needs his help.

And he´s someone who never lets his friends down or betrays them, regardless of whether they feel otherwise or not.

Bolt is no hero, he is the light, the light which one gladly follows into a better future, into a secure home.

He is like the fire that warms and protects against the coldness of the world, no matter from which way it comes.

To me, Bolt is like a real Hokage already, and I am certain, that he will become the ninth Hokage, after Sensei Konohamaru!" I stated with determination.

"Anyways we came far of the topic.

So Bolt was comforting me and sat with me on that bench.

He told me that he tried to bring Mitsuki off doing this cruelty to me and that the same had promised it to him.

So in the end, Mitsuki broke a promise to Bolt and hurt me mentally in a way I thought to never recover, if it weren't for Bolt to help me, of course Mitsuki had been the longest time Bolt´s friend.

But what really takes the biscuit was that Mitsuki smiled at me the next day, greeting me, as if never something happened.

In the lunch time he tried to speak with me, but I escaped towards the girl's toilet.

After I was done, I was about to go out, but was hurtfully pushed back inside by Mitsuki.

Not only that he was in the girl's toilet, but also the way he grabbed my hand hurtfully, was enough to make me trembling in fear.

That time we just started our days learning how to become a ninja and I had no idea about self-defence, Mitsuki would have an easy game of raping me or doing whatever with me.

He said some nasty things to me, told me that I was nothing to him but just a little fun and that he was already together with the other girls since 1 month, just like Bolt said,.

He mocked Bolt, telling me how sweet it would have been, as Bolt begged him to not hurt me this way and that he believed Mitsui like a good little loyal friend.

He told me that I owe him, for I didn´t wanted to do anything but holding hands, not even a kiss on the lips I wanted to give him so early.

He said that he would take, what I owed him, by force if I was not willing to do.

My mind was paralysed and I had no real power to scream either, but as I did he closed my mouth with his hand, he created a Bushin who restrained me, while he groped and touched me all over.

The only positive if I can call it that, was that he left my clothes mostly in one piece, still it was sexual harassment in its purest form.

Thankfully he didn´t came all too far, he would, if not some girls entered and stopped him from doing it, they chased him out, simply because he was in the girls toilet, not particular to save me, remember I had close to no friends back then.

I ran out of the toilet and tried to tell the teachers about it but no one listened but Shino-Sensei and I had no evidences anyways, the only who believed me were Shikadai, Inojin and of course Bolt.

Of course Bolt instantly went to Mitsuki and forced him to admit things, he didn´t and beside of us no one logically believed that anyways, not even the girls from the toilet spoke up but only laughed at us.

As Mitsuki laughed with his other pals at Bolt and insulted me, Bolt flipped and attacked Mitsuki, beating him in a fit of rage black and blue, so long until the teachers went between.

It was the first time, that I saw the real extend of his power and how strong Bolt actually was, I had no idea to that time that Bolt already began to train hard, day in day out to become strong, I only heard that later by his mother.

In order to be strong enough to protect his friends, Bolt learned and trained harder as anyone else, often sleeping during class, but still writing good grades.

Now you know, behind his state as a prodigy lies a lot of work for him, logically Mitsuki had no chance to win at all and he was down on the ground unable to move in 5 minutes flat, both arms and several ribs were broken.

Bolt yelled that Mitsuki should tell the truth, but the same remained silent, we still had no evidence, so we thought at least.

The other Teachers were about to bring Bolt away and throw him from the school, and I thought that Mitsuki simply would get away with it, but fortunately a Girl spoke up.

Someone I never had known before that day and never spoken to her, she told the teachers that she heard all about what happened in the toilet, as she was in the neighbouring cabinet.

She apologized for not getting between us in that moment.

She seemed to be rather shy and unsure around people to begin with.

The teachers fortunately believed her story, after other shy girls began to speak up telling equal stories, also for the girl had no connection to anyone of us, so we could not influence her!" I told.

"And who was that girl?" Chouchou asked and my glance fell on Senpou, who blushed.

"Wait that was you?" Chouchou asked dumbfounded.

"Yeah… although that time I hadn´t any idea about fighting , Dad had only began to show me a bit of how the movements were, but it was not enough to win against anyone and I admit, I was a rather scared and shy person.

From all the things that happened before I had no idea, I only told them what I heard!" Senpou stated uncomfortably.

"I hate myself for my weakness back then!" she mumbled.

"Anyways after each girl was interrogated, Mitsuki, still not in the right age to be arrested and treated as an adult, was thrown from the academy and send back home to his parents.

Bolt only was suspended for one month, because of using jutsus on a school-comrade, he used his clone jutsu in combinations with Taijutsu.

His father still had hard to fight for that mild decision, since it was Bolt who attacked Mitsuki.

I decided to visit him every day, making bentos for him and spending time after school, also to bring his homework to him and the notes as well as showing him what to learn for the tests in the next month.

Meanwhile he spent his friendship to me, comforted me, hold me tight and gave me a warm feeling of secureness, that time I decided that beside of Bolt I would never trust a boy in love anymore, it was the days as I fell in love with him.

During that month Chouchou came to our group as new addition.

And after the month was over, Bolt wanted to thank Senpou for helping us.

I guess that was the moment he watched out for getting to know you better and so he learned about who you were and what for problems you had.

I guess he then decided to help you and integrate you in our group and so we were all together.

After that we didn´t saw Mitsuki until today, I tried to forget about him but that was not so easy, the way he treated me that day branded itself in my brain and gave me a traumata, only through Bolt I was able to sleep again at night, after that month.

His gentle touch made every bad dream going away.

So…, now you know why I paralysed as I saw Mitsuki again and why Bolt was so over the top hostile against him.

And it seems that he still managed to become a ninja, I think I saw the Kusagakure Headband on his clothes!" I told them.

"I really hope I don´t have to fight him!" I said with a concern.

"I hope I do, I will shoot him to the moon for you, the one who attacks my best friend and touches her so shamelessly deserves to rot in hell!" Chouchou stated and her eyes blazed with wrath.

"Chouchou the Boys are here!" We heard it coming from downstairs.

"Dammit, are we done with everything, the boy will be mad if they have to wait!?" Chouchou asked panicking.

"I think we got anything!" I said looking at the girls, each one was looking neat, Senpou wore a nice green dress with Shuriken on the straps, a Black belt, a bit similar to the one she wore on her first date, only a bit longer, and she had again a lateral ponytail with extensions.

Himawari was wearing a dress in a pale shade of pink, really cute with a ribbon.

I was probably the one to stick out the most with my red dress.

"That dress is so lovely Sarada!" Himawari stated softly and calm, maybe to atone for her attitude before.

"Really, you think, well it is cute, my parents bought it to me, for defeating my Dad and so making mom winning her bet with Dad!" I explained.

"Nice!" Chouchou stated.

"Anyways if we got anything we better go, the boys will be grumpy all night, if we let them wait, so c´mon!" She said as we ran outside to finally meet up with the boys.

"Feeeeewwwweeeewww!" The boys each whistled, as they spotted us, but we made the same, one each of them was dressed in a neat black tuxedo with polished black shoes.

"You look gorgeous girls!" They said.

"Well thank you handsome guys, anyways are you ready to escort these ladies to the party?!" Chouchou asked.

"Nothing would be more in our sense!" Bolt stated.

"Guys, line up!" He shouted and each of them stepped to the girl, whom they were to escort, raising their arms ready for us to hook in.

"Well then, off to a night full of magic!" Bolt stated.

"Bolt before you guys go, your mothers called and they want you guys back at least at midnight, the security has been sharpened but still.

We don't like to have a similar situation as two years ago, that goes for you too Shikadai, Chouchou will be home at least at midnight and not a second later, did you understood?!" Karui-san stated.

"Of course Mrs. Akimichi, Chouchou will be back home at least 10 minutes before midnight, you have my word!" Shikadai stated.

"Good, if everyone agrees to this condition than all that´s left to say is, go on, have a nice evening and amuse yourself but no too much, you guys got some battles tomorrow!" Karui-san explained.

"Thanks Mrs. Akimichi!" We stated before we departed, of to a night of fun, but as so often things should not go as planned.

Part II/ Celebration under the stars and Kidnappings in the night, the Attack of Nature (Part 1).

Part 1/ At the Starlight festival:- Victory for the Lovers and the Parent´s talk.

Sarada´s Pov:

Celebration has finally come, the festival was long going on for Bolt and me.

We did it, we defeated Dad and managed to save our love for each other, and everyone seemed to grant us this happiness.

This we mostly felt due to many people complementing us on defeating my father, as if it was the greatest achievement here in town, though it was not easily made after all, that's for sure, but still….

I think that most of the townspeople were just glad, that I decided to rebel against my father and not intended to be like him in any way.

They are glad to not have to fear anything from me and this is enough for them to stop hating me, so it seemed to me at least.

I guess this makes me again a member of the town.

Either way I couldn´t care less about this, I was too occupied of having fun with my friends and my Boyfriend Bolt.

And of course we kissed by each free opportunity, simply being glad to finally can lie in each other's arms without any mean looks but some of jealous girls, dumb commentaries of friends and acquaintances beside of the playful ones or butt-in´s from Dad, whom we didn´t met the entire evening so far.

After the boys came to get us we walked through the crowded streets, it was so familiar to me, and still, the feeling today was so much different as from 2 years ago.

As I said, I could not find any trace of hostility against me but some small jealousy, still, whenever Bolt had to go to the toilet, he left a Bushin at my side.

I guess the trauma from the last time we have been here, was still stuck in his bones, not that I ever might forget that either though.

"Guys I tell you, I truly can´t eat anything anymore!" Chouchou, finally stuffed and satisfied stated as she leaned back in her seat in the restaurant of Ichiraku, we went for a few cups of ramen to celebrate Senpou´s, Inojin´s, Bolt´s and my victories so far.

"Are you finally full, I thought I had to pay for another 20 cups!" Bolt stated annoyed.

"Well it was you, who suggested to take upon the paying, am I right?" Chouchou asked Shikadai, who only shrugged but nodded.

"She got a point there!" Senpou stated.

"Yeah I admit I did, but that was not meant for you to exploit the situation, I am almost out of money already!" Bolt whined, while I only chuckled.

I refrained myself, from eating more than 3 cups thought but that was far enough for me anyways.

"Well it´s your bad that you didn´t precisely told us how much we are free to eat!" Chouchou stated with a huff.

"Grrr, oh wait when you pay the next time, I will get you back on this, dattebasa!" Bolt stated with fiery eyes.

"Anyways now that we stuffed what shall we do next?" Inojin asked.

"Hmm, I don´t know, was there any place we haven´t been until now?" I asked.

"Well we did almost anything, I think the only things we didn´t by now were the karaoke stand and the dance hall!" Himawari stated.

"Well the dancehall we can forget, at least for now, I mean we just ate!" Bolt stated.

"Well this means it´s off to the Karaoke stand then!" Katsuo said happily.

"Oh yes I want to see you two singing a duet again, after all this time you don´t need to hide your love for each other anymore!" Chouchou stated while Senpou nodded eagerly.

"Alright, but only if each one of you sings too!" I stated.

"Sure things, and you guys too!" Chouchou stated as she nodded over to the boys and Katsuo as well as Himawari.

"Wait why we?" Himawari asked.

"Because we want to hear your voices too, that´s why!" I said.

"Geez, alright but only one song!" Himawari pouted, I thought to have seen a light blush.

"Alright one song, but it has to be a duet!" Chouchou stated, I guess she´s playing matchmaker again.

"Geez if you insist!" Himawari replied still pouting, the blush got more and more visible.

"With Katsuo!" I stated pushing her buttons.

"Whaaaaa why you….!" She tried to shout but was silenced by Bolt´s hand.

"Stop screaming around…, geez it´s only a song, it´s not as if you have to kiss him…., though I would not mind it that much…., if you two would do!" Bolt stated blushing, while Himawari was deep red or embarrassment.

"S-stop i-it!" She stammered, hiding her face from Katsuo who blushed too.

I thought to hear him mumbling something about `cute reaction´.

"Well since this is settle off to the Karaoke!" Chouchou stated and so we went over to the stand, enjoying ourselves, oblivious as most others too, of what actually happened around us.

Naruto´s Pov:

The kids, as much as my camouflaged Kagebushins could see, were having a good time and also we adults were making us a nice evening, still there were things to clear tonight, which have to be done.

"Anyways now that Sakura and Sasuke finally marry, the last two in our group are finally get it done, more or less!" A lightly drunken Ino stated while Sai sweat-dropped but smiled as well.

"Yeah it sure was about time you guys are going down the aisle and are about to exchange rings, I waited 11 years for this to happen, ever since Sakura was pregnant!" Chouji stated and Karui nodded.

"Yeah that sure was a surprise, as I suddenly was told by Tamaki, that Sakura was pregnant!" A hopelessly drunk Kiba stated while Tamaki only sighed in annoyance.

I really hope I don´t have to witness another divorce of them, seriously Kiba should not drink at all, if he cannot handle a half bottle of sake.

I was glad that Tenten was holding lee of from doing that, we all know what happens when he gets drunk, that didn´t improved in the last years a bit, to be honest it even worse as we had to witness painfully.

"Anyways, guys, I want you to take this in and wait for a five minutes without eating nor drinking!" I stated as I thought it was time, I took out a basket where Sakura´s medicine was in it.

"What´s that!" Kiba asked suspicious, sniffing on it.

"Smells like shit!" He said wrinkling his nose.

"Sakura made them!" I only said.

"I meant to say, they have a foreign but nice fragrance!" Kiba stated, thinking things over quickly.

"They will make you able to have a clear mind in a few minutes, I need you to make an honest decision!" I stated and each one nodded taking one of the medical balls.

"Wooooaaaaaahhh shit!" They shouted as their mouth, same as mine burned.

The medicament burned every alcohol in the body and cleared up the entire mind in seconds.

"Dammit, that was intense!" Chouji stated after a while.

"Indeed dear!" Karui nodded.

"What is that thing?" Kiba asked.

"We call it, the Wake-up pill, not an orignal name but unmistakeably makes clear what it is, anyways enough of the random shit, as I said I need you guys to make an honest decision.

"What I tell you now is top secret, that's why I booked the entire back of the restaurant, to make sure we are undisturbed!" I said and they looked around in Ichiraku´s noodle restaurant, which was separated from this room with a soundproof slide-glass-door.

"Anyways, what do you want to speak with us about, Hokage?" Lee asked sensing that things get serious and official.

"What do you guys know about an organization called S.I.I.O.N.T.?!" I asked.

"Close to nothing, only some minor rumours, it´s mumbled that the other lands are beginning to arm themselves for a new war!" Sasuke stated.

"Yeah I heard that too, there shall be a secret HQ somewhere here in Hi no Kuni!" Sakura stated.

"I think Tsunade once said something about as she was drunk!" Ino nodded.

"Geez that old hag, can´t keep shut even when she´s drunk, I should have set a damn seal on her tongue!" I muttered under my breath.

"Anyways, you are right, the HQ is in Hi no Kuni, to be honest you are sitting right upon it!" I stated.

"Wait what?" They stated some even spat their drinks across the table.

"Geez guys manners please!" I stated, as I dried my coat off.

"Anyways you have heard right, it gives two secret entries, the one is in the Gokage-council room in the Hokage office, the other one is here, in the most unexpected place in whole Konoha!" I stated.

"A Noodle restaurant?" Kiba asked doubtingly.

"Do you know a place even the Hokage can get in, without instantly being suspected of doing something strange?!" I asked him with a raised eyebrow.

"Good point, anybody in town knows that you are frequenter in Ichiraku´s, so indeed, no one would suspect you to do something unusual as to eat tons of ramen!" Mirai-san stated with a smile.

"Exactly that was Kakashi´s and my thinking back then too, anyways, the S.I.I.O.N.T. Project is not , as you think, the arming of each nation for themselves, but a mutual project of all five main Lands and Ninja villages, Konoha, Suna, Kiri, Kumo and Iwa, each of these villages build on a giant secret HQ deep under Konoha as middle point, with underground tunnels which are reaching into the other lands, connecting, through high-speed trains, several secret bases with the HQ.

The project was started after the Moonfall-case and is since five years officially active, ever since, Kurotsuchi, Darui, Chojuro and me became each Kages.

The Project is taking the custody of prodigies from various ninja villages but mostly from the five main Villages, like the Thundercloud unit, the Whirlpool unit, the Earthquake, the Quicksand unit and our Firestorm unit.

Also we take in people with exceptional abilities, like proved mediums, people who have visions of the future and other unique abilities.

All in all it is a gathering of the strongest, most skilled and talented ninjas.

And as one of the Directors I wanted to offer each one of you a place down there!" I stated.

"Seriously?" They asked.

"Indeed, we have fought together and have been through many hellish mission and even a war together, so I know from what I speak if I say, that you guys are some of the most talented ninjas of our village and it would be a great honour for me to once again work with you guys on my side…., and the same goes for your kids, that's actually the main reason I wanted you guys to come here today.

The Chunin exam´s this year are not only to watch of which young Shinobis are made for becoming Chunin but also for searching for new members for the 6 main categories.

The Attacker, Assassin and Field operator unit: Which trains ninjas, to become able to attack large legions of enemies with quick long range attacks, assassinating important personalities of the enemy, lowering their battle moral.

Conducting the land defence during times of war.

The Defender, field strategist and intelligence unit: Which trains ninjas to become capable for bodyguard jobs, the defending and evacuating of towns and lands in war-territories, making them able to get out before being harmed in anyways, also they cast barriers to save Villages and palaces and the like.

Also they get trained to form strategies and gathering information, as well as decoding secret messages on-field.

The Back-up support, messenger and material-maintenance unit:

Which trains ninjas for making highly important weapon/ ammunition-, message-, food- and medical material-deliveries for our field operators, in the war-territories, similar to courier ninjas.

The Seal-barrier/ barricade breakers and seal-caster unit:

Which trains ninjas to become highly capable of Fuinjutsus and seal-breaker techniques, and those with the power to mow down any Barricade of the enemy.

The Espionage, Infiltration and sensor unit:

Which trains ninjas to be able to easily infiltrate fiend bastions, spy on the enemies and the sensing of enemies behind closed doors.

Medical-Lazarette unit:

Which trains ninjas to become medical ninjas able to give medical support and intelligence on-field, creating lazarettes and researches about poisons used by the Enemies, in war territories.

These are the 6 official units which are made in the Project S.I.I.O.N.T.!" I explained.

"And you think our children will be strong enough for getting in!" Karui asked me worried.

"I don´t think so Karui…., I know so…, i´ve been watching your kid´s mission closely since some time and I can tell you, each one of them is a perfect and strong ninja, loyal , skilled and willed to never give up, neither on accomplishing the mission nor on keeping their friends save.

Momentarily we have no real official Konoha team, only a few single ninjas who each work more in the maintenance and intelligence section in the HQ, as on the open battlefield.

That's why I asked you guys, I don´t want to keep you guys away from your children and because I know that each of you guys are strong Shinobi-warriors I am certain that you guys will get along well down there…, so, what do you think, willing to give it a try or rather not?" I asked watching the reactions of each one of them.

I saw that Lee and Tenten were thinking things over and might get into it, Sakura and Sasuke were fire and flame for it.

Sai and Ino were worried, and I could not blame them, in a way I was worried too, but more about what Himawari will say to all this, if suddenly her brother isn´t there anymore for her.

She is strong no doubt about it, but until now she only started as a Genin fully through, since she´s since five months in Sasuke´s team and 2 years apart from having the official right to get into the Chunin exam.

Also has she until now only 2-B rank missions absolved and even though she has also an S-rank mission absolved, in my opinion she´s just not ready for the hard-core battlefield yet, but i´m sure in the simulator she will be able to get herself enough experience to make up for the entire first 4 years, – 5 months, of wasted time.

Chouji and Karui were worried too, but I knew that Karui was proud of her daughter and that she knew that Chouchou was strong enough for this.

Shikamaru and Temari on the other hand were rather calm about it, mostly observing the decisions of the others.

"I, I don´t know what to do, I mean, I am sure that she might will be in it…, but…!" Lee stated trying to speak about his thoughts.

"Guys, i´m sorry, I thinking might have explained myself worse.

What I want to know from you guys is, if you trust the abilities of your children enough, to be sure that they would be able to get along in a complete team made of approximately 6 to 10 members.

With also other teammates from different lands, they will live like a family together down there, closer than usual, you think they can do it?" I asked.

"Of course they can I mean they are all couples, my Chouchou and Temari´s son Shikadai, Tenten´s daughter Senpou with Ino´s son Inojin and your son Bolt with Sakura´s daughter Sarada, so I don´t think that between them will be a problem, it depends on the other 4 persons, who are they gonna be?" Karui asked.

"Firstly I wanted to ask Sarin-chan, you know, my Uncle Shigure´s daughter, Salia Hyuuga, Konohamaru and Hanabi´s daughter, and perhaps also Karin Uzumaki´s Son Akihito Uzumaki-Hozuki, or like Karin playfully calls him, Akihito Hozumaki.

I don´t know if I might find someone in time to get in as well as the tenth man, if not they will simply remain as a nine-man team.

They would be the 7th official field-operation team, which we all have built up so far.

Team G7, G as the 7th team which has been built and because G is the 7th letter in the alphabet, and 7 for the first team of Konoha which has been built during the era of me, the Seventh Hokage.

I hope to soon be able to build H8 up, I have some members in sight and it would be Team G7´s first mission to gather them together.

Most of them are old friends of mine with exceptional abilities, still unfortunately I cannot go out to search for them myself and therefore Bolt´s team has to take upon this mission.

Also because Bolt will surely be able to convince them that he is indeed my son!" I told them.

"I see, well I guess in the end it all depends on themselves anyways, if they want to enter or not!" Shino stated.

"Indeed, still I want to know your opinion to it, that's why I asked, also I don´t really like to rip a family apart!" I stated.

"But what about Katsuo-kun, Himawari-san, Shana and Hiro, wouldn´t they be left alone if we are down there!" Kiba asked.

"No necessarily, if you fully accept we will build a secret escalator which takes you from your home down to the HQ, also it´s not as if you are bound to live down there forever, you only get asked if your skills are needed for a mission, in your free time you are free to live up on the surface same as the kids, its mostly only made for long-term missions, like the recruiting mission which will be started in the next few weeks, as long as they accept of course!" I explained.

"And what is the benefit in contrast to the normal work of a ninja?" Hana asked.

"The missions are mostly B- to S-rank missions and are accordingly paid, maybe even with a salary supplement, depending off how good or how fast a mission is done.

Still you need to remind yourself, in these missions you are getting on fiend territories more often than you like, you think things are peacefully, the fact is, things are way more complicated than you might think.

What I tell you now is even more top secret, do you understand!" I stated to them all with an intimidating and serious expression.

"Then you better don´t tell us, shouldn´t you?" Ino asked.

"I tell you because I trust you and because I know you will help me, because I really do need your guys help, also I want to let you know what for dangers might come upon your kids!" I stated and I saw each mother gulping, even Hinata and Temari.

"Alright…, tell them Naruto, they need to know!" Shikamaru stated.

"I know!" I replied before I sighed, gulped and cleared my throat, I looked around but could only see, as expected, Teuchi sitting in the Kitchen listening to the radio´s music, Ayame had already be gone with Kakashi towards the Starlight festival.

"Alright….., there have been numerous attacks on various villages abroad, since approximately the last 5 months!" I stated.

"Well it´s not unusual that villages are getting attacked!" Kiba stated confused.

"It's not the fact that they were attacked, Kiba, but the way how they got, the villages were fully intact, nothing seemed to be out of place, though by many of them the forests around were completely died out.

Also there is another thing…., in the villages were corpses found everywhere, but it seem that these people, according to the doctors who carried out the autopsies, have all died around the same time due to heart failure.

That in itself is suspicious enough, were it not for the fact that this has happened to, so far we could find out, 19 villages, each with about 200 inhabitants, and all in the most diverse countries!" I told them and they were shocked.

"No way, are you serious?" Ino asked.

"Unfortunately yes!" I replied.

"Wait a second, since approximately 5 months, that means since the time Neherit is on his search for you and the other Uzumaki´s!" Sakura stated.

"Indeed, that´s what I thought too in the first moment, but it could not be him.

I have let him being observed ever since the first time I saw him.

According to the team has he not moved away from his spot in a den, in the former land of Mountains, where that giant crater is located, you know, the monster crater of approximately 3500 miles diameter?

Anyways in the last month we counted 6 of such attacks and Neherit has been in his den the entire month, god alone knows what he´s doing in there, I ordered the operation team to carefully investigate what´s happening.

But until now I haven´t a report yet, all that we know is, that someone goes around and commits genocide, whether it is Neherit or not, we have to find and eliminate the culprit!" I stated and they nodded approvingly.

"The public knows nothing of the matter, because it is kept a secret, also has, alas, not a single villager, whether he was in the village or just in the surrounding forests, survived these attacks.

It is a real mystery to us but we hope to soon can solve this case!" I stated.

"Tock,tock,tock!" I knocked on the door to the room.

"Yes?!" I answered nervously, I told Teuchi-san to not want to be disturbed unless something gravely important is happening.

"Hokage-sama we have a crisis, several people have fallen into coma one by one, there is a Karin-san which wants to speak with you, may she enter?" A Jonin stated.

"Sure thing, meanwhile please bring everyone for treatment in the Hospital, Chief Medic Sakura and sub-chief Medic Ino are going to accompany you!" I stated.

"Hokage-sama, there is something more than just a Hospital need…., half of the downtown has been fallen in coma by now, the remaining people are fleeing in the Uptown!" The Jonin stated.

"I see, alright gather every medical-ninja, nurse, doctor and everyone with a little medical knowledge together, get Shizune san and Lady Tsunade, the Genins are ordered to help, by the way what's with my son?" I asked.

"We have no trace of him by now, but it seems that he´s not under the coma patients by now either!" the Jonin replied.

"Alright I will search him myself, now do as I say, gather everyone around and open up a large lazarette on the market place, get every patient, and find out what´s this all about!" I order and the Jonin bowed before he vanished alongside Sakura and Ino.

"Naruto!" I heard the voice of Karin, as she burst into the room.

"Karin what´s wrong?" I asked.

"I have no idea, I was about to walk through the streets to get to my family…., as I found all these dead animals, there was no visible harm on them…, they…, they simply died.

I thought about a gas but it didn´t affected me, so I thought it might not be dangerous for humans.., until I found Izumo-san and Kotetsu-san in the Guardian post, unconscious and in coma.

Suigetsu, Jugo and my son arrived with two other coma-patient, travellers whose donkey died the same way as the stray animals here, 5 miles away from Konohagakure, so whatever this is, it came from abroad.

I don´t know what´s going on here, but I feel something terribly cold and evil within the air, and now…, now it even affected Suigetsu!" Karin stated hysterically with tears in her eyes.

"Wait, the animals died, without being harmed…., shit, get every ninja, every single one, meet me at the roof of the office in 20 minutes!" I said to Shikamaru who nodded before he vanished, Karin, who broke down was supported by Karui and Tenten.

"Naruto is this what I think it is?" Hinata asked worried.

"Yeah, whatever happened in these villages, it came to us, but we can tell now, whatever it is, it´s definitely not a person!" I stated.

"What about the kids?" She asked.

"Lee, Tenten, Sasuke, Shino, you search for the children, Hinata go with them.

Meanwhile I will try to calm the people and conduct the further measures!" I stated and Hinata nodded sadly.

She knew I would give anything to go myself but right now the people needed me as Hokage, who takes the situation by the collar and brings order in this chaos.

"Whatever this is, Bolt will keep them all save, he´s strong so is Himawari, they won´t go down so easily!" I assured her, as I held her in my arms quickly kissing her and pressing her on me.

"I know…., why is it always happening…, whenever something good happens to Bolt, someone else tries to destroy it!" Hinata stated full of sorrow.

"I don´t know, but he would not want us to give up, we have to stay strong, for him, go and find him and the others, I will see what I can do to get the culprit as soon as possible, he won´t get away with this!" I stated and she nodded again, giving me a last kiss on the cheek before departing.

"Geez, that asshole´s going to pay!" I stated, as the rest of my friends, who remained at my side, followed me out into the night, I used my Kyuubi modoo to get where the evil intent comes from.

"No….., how´s that possible!" I stated, paling as I felt it.

"What´s the matter Hokage!" Kiba asked me concerned.

"The evil intent Karin spoke of…., it's all around, it's everywhere even right before me, I cannot precisely tell where it is coming from!" I explained.

"I feel it, it´s sucking on my life force!" Yuudai, Kiba´s Puppy and Akamaru´s son stated as he dived in Kiba´s jacket fearfully.

"So that's how they died, something sucked the entire life force out of them, this way the died on heart failure all at once!" I muttered.

"Neherit you bastard, I swear if you are behind this I will rip your head of personally, I don´t care if you are strong enough to beat Bijuus!" I mumbled, enraged as I ran to the market place.

I had no idea what happened to my son and my daughter meanwhile, but I swear if I had, I would surely run amok.

Part 2/ A short moment of physical love, Ambush at midnight and a safe place in ruins:

Bolt´s Pov:

The night has fallen and it was close to midnight, after our excursion to the Karaoke and the dancehall, we decided to part ways as couples, Chouchou and Shikadai went to watch the stars on the roof of one of their houses.

Inojin and Senpou went to the art exhibition at the festival, on Senpou´s request, making Inojin happy.

Himawari and Katsuo meanwhile were joining their friends, after they were finally free from the family meeting.

And Sarada and me, we went to the temple to wove our eternal love.

"It sure was a nice evening so far, no bad surprises and no one who tried to kill us, I guess this year it is a safe year, so to say!" I said to Sarada.

"I guess that´s right, still, before we settle down an chill just let us craft a shield, only to be sure about things!" she stated.

"Indeed, what not is, can still be!" I stated.

"Exactly!" Sarada replied and so I crafted two layers of Kongō Fūsa (Adamantine Sealing chains).

"Much appreciated, this way we are secure and undisturbed!" Sarada stated, as she purred and crawled over to me and the blanket of the picnic we had earlier under the stars.

"Rrrrr, I hope you got the same in mind as I do?" I stated as I nibbled on her neck, strocking her back.

"Of course Honey, let´s continue where we left off!" She stated as she climbed on my lap.

"Hmm, Mrs Uchiha you seem to have a dirty, perverted mind, I like it!" I stated while kissing her.

"I appreciate your praise Mr. Uzumaki, but I think I sense a portion of lust and arousal on you as well, it suits me!" She replied playfully as she stroke of my tux´s jacket.

"Show me what you got under this!" She stated feverish as she took it off and unbuttoned my shirt before she seductively stroke over my abs purring like a cat.

She allowed me to unzip her dress.

"Rrrrrrr, I like what I see, so damn much!" I stated as her black bra was revealed, a delicate, expensive looking one, unlike any Sarada ever has worn before…., on the few occasions I have seen them at least.

"There is much more for you to see!" Sarada purred as she took of the Bra revealing her large C-cup breasts.

The nosebleed I suffered was incredible, even though I saw them already earlier, right now her body was only illuminated by the moon…., which in looking at it, was quite strange, so fully red.

"Well then Itadakimasu!" I said as I leaned and got me a good taste of them.

"Aaaaaaah!" Sarada moaned in pleasure, as I sucked on her nipples, all two at once.

"Mmmmmhhhhmmmm, this feels so good Boruto!" She whimpered in sheer lust.

"It´s all for you, my queen!" I stated, as I kissed her passionately.

"Take it off, I want you to see me fully!" Sarada stated as she lifted the skirt of her dress, showing me her panties.

"If you are sure about this!" I stated.

"I am, this is only for you, only you shall see me like this, I have decided long ago, that you are the only boy I will love, and you also shall be the only one to see my full body!" Sarada explained as she took off, her dress and put it aside.

I admired her naked body with my hands, kising her entire body until I arrived at her panties.

"Bolt, please, take of your clothes, it´s kinda embarrassing to be this naked, so all alone!" She stated as she opened my belt.

I took of my trousers and was only in my underpants, useless to say, that my boner stuck out like a mast again.

"You are so muscular and so tasty!" Sarada stated as she nibbled on my stomach.

"But you are way cuter and even more beautiful than I imagined!" I replied.

"Anyways do you got a Condom?" I asked, but she only shook her head.

"No I want our first time to be bare, so please sweetheart, do me raw!" She purred in my ear.

"If you insist!" I replied as I kissed her stomach and traced my hands along her waist to her panties.

"Take them off, reveal me to you!" Sarada softly whispered to me.

"Your wish is my command, Milady!" I replied and pulled them down slowly.

"Wow, you are so wet and yet so beautiful!" I stated, as I looked at her pussy closely.

"…Baka…, don´t stare so much…, it´s embarrassing…., hurry up and show me yours!" She stated blushing, wih a insatable hunger in her eyes.

"Of course, but beware this is adult only material!" I chuckled as I took of my pants as well.

Luckily no one will be able to enter the shield or come close to us, up to 600 meters the shield blocks every attempt.

"Mmmmmhhhhmmm, it looks so tasty…., it´s burning hot and so hard…., so this is your pre-cum…, it taste salty!" Sarada gushed and drooled, as she held my dick in her hands squeezing it lightly, exploring it´s entire length.

"Let me pleasure you!" I stated as I kissed my way down to her hips.

"Bolt…!" Sarada moaned.

"Are you ready, prepare yourself cause here comes my lick attack!" I stated, before I took a long lick between her legs.

"Aaaaahh!" Her body convulsed and she arched her back in sheer pleasure, as I licked her continuously.

"Oh Bolt, more…, more…., give me more pleasure…, ooooohhhh…., your tongue, its entering deep inside!" Sarada whimpered as she pushed my head down to her love-hill.

"Aaaaaah….., something´s coming….., Bolt…., I can feel it…., comething big is coming…, I´m cumming….., i´m cumming bolt…., aaaaaahhhaaaaaaaa, BBBBBOOOOLLLLLTTTTT!" Sarada screamed in sheer pleasure as she came.

Her back arched and her breasts sticking out like mountains, I traced my hands over her stomach to them, squeezing and fondling them.

"Soooo goood, this was the best…, thank you so much honey!" Sarada gushed, as she came down from her climax, looking at me seductively.

Her eyes had changed to something different, it looked like Sharingan but that had 4 tomoe, positioned like the four cardinal points on a compass.

"It…, it´s my turn now!" She stated, her eyes going back to normal, as she shifted my position to the ground, before she towered over me.

"You know…, since this is my first time, I don´t really know how to do it…, but I looked in a lot of books, and also….., I read an Icha-Icha book.., it was kinda explicit, but it told me in the best way what to do. I just hope you will feel good!" Sarada stated, her face flushed, as she scooted closer to my penis.

"it´s said that guys Love it…., when girls massaging their dicks with their breasts, my are large enough for it to fit between I would say, so please try to enjoy it, if I do something wrong, tell me okay!" She stated as she took my dick between her large breasts.

"It`s burning hot…, and rock hard!" She gushed as she licked it, while massaging it with her large breasts.

"Isn´t it too small for you?!" I asked embarrassed.

"No, it´s really long and big, I hope it fits in!" She said with a flushed smile.

"Well then, let´s go!" She said, as she continued rubbed my dick between her soft breasts.

Her breath was accelerating the more she jerked and sucked, the feeling of her mouth, so hot and wet, was incredible.

"I feel it hitting the back of my throat, it´s all over in my mouth!" Sarada whimpered as she began to simply give me a blowjob getting her mouth more access to my dick.

"Your mouth feels so good!" I stated to her.

"Your penis feels good too!" She said as she licked the base and the shaft before taking it back in her mouth.

"Sarada, if you keep this up, I will come soon!" I stated as her speed accelerated.

"It´s twitching and growing in my mouth….., uhuuunnn….., you are about to burst aren´t you…., oooohhhh…., come wherever you want, inside my mouth or spray it over my face!" Sarada stated as she jerked me off with a dirty smile, her lust filled eyes were totally different from her usual black eyes, they were glimmering, like burning coal.

"Sarada….., i´m Cumming…., i´m Cumming…. Oooohhhh SARADA!" I screamed as I came right in her mouth pushing her head down to my member.

"I hear her gulping, before she released my dick out of her mouth, spraying a bit of it over her face, still the sight was very erotic.

"Puuuaaaahhh, it tastes a bit salty-sweet, but feels so good!" She stated, as she licked up the rest of her face.

"Does it really taste that wreid!" I asked I could not really belive it.

"Taste it if you want!" She said and I first wanted to back away from the idea, but on the other hand…., didn´t I make her drinking it as well, and let´s be serious it can´t be any worse than drinking the sweet taste of her cum.

Also…., at least so I read in a medical book I got from Sakura-san, sperma was…, in a way good for the teethes, though not as good as a toothpaste of course.

"Only if we kiss!" I stated as an ultimatum.

"Sure thing!" Sarada stated.

"Please lord, don´t let me get a liking in that!" I thought as I kissed her, to be honest the taste was long not as disgusting as I had thought, but perhaps it was just sweetened through Sarada´s saliva.

"Tastes strange indeed and so thick!" I stated as I gulped.

"Sorry for making you drink it honey!" I stated.

"Don´t be , as I said, I liked it, also it´s good for the skin you know, there were a lot of things I didn´t know about sex and cum, so I researched in moms medical books, and it is a whole lot more than simply baby-make-cream!" Sarada stated as she cleaned of my dick.

"I see, I heard that too somewhere…., a-anyways, what shall we do now…., will you still let me take your virginity tonight or shall we make our way back home?

It´s nearly Midnight, we have only like 20 minutes before we have to be at your home, if we want to hold in the 10 minutes before Midnight rule, so what is it?!" I asked her.

"Well I guess we will not be able to have sex tonight, not that we shouldn´t go step by step anyways, no need to rush things…., I guess for tonight, things are okay as they are…, what do you think?" Sarada asked me.

"I know what you mean, alright then, we should dress, pack things up and make our way back home!" I stated.

"Alright…, by the way what about Himawari and Katsuo, we still got to tell them to go home?!" Sarada asked, as she put her clothes back on.

I admired her sexy body and thought about how it looks like, if she´s covered in my cum, I felt that I got a hard-on again.

"No fear, one of my Kagamibushin is at their side, if anything happens he will contact me through shattering, and I can teleport right at their side!" I explained.

"Alright!" She said as she put on her dress, I closed my jacket and put on my Shoes, stored everything in the basket, which I stored back into the scroll I had used for it.

Alright, are you done?" I asked.

"I´m all ready to go!" She replied.

"Alright then, here we go!" I stated and so we teleported back towards the temple at the foot, of the hill which was quite high.

This has once been place where the Hokage memorial-Stone stood.

But after the destruction of the town through Pain, it was decided to rebuild the stone in a destruction proof temple.

The people come here at the memorial/Grave visiting-day, and on special occasions, like marriages or one day after the birth of a child, but mostly to pray for fortune in times of war, to pray for peace, love and the returning alive, of the loved ones.

Here, Sarada and I, we too prayed for our love to last forever.

It was the idea of the previous died Hokages to witness and bless the new-born children, the newly-wed lovers or the departing Shinobi, which made the people praying here.

It´s quite silent, isn´t it?" I stated after a while.

"Yeah…, kinda, I also saw no firework until now and Midnight is soon here.

"Yeah but I mean, there is no laughing, nor any music played anymore, just as if suddenly everything has stopped at once…., baaah its probably nothing!" I stated playing things down, although I had a bad feeling about this.

Ever since I let the shield vanishing things seemed to be uncanny, I felt a sudden coldness, colder as the nights of the previous days, but this coldness seemed to be unnatural.

I had no evidence and I did not know what was going on anyways.

"The birds aren´t singing…, its so silent…, too silent, this is strange!" I heard Sarada muttering.

"Indeed, this doesn't suits me, we better get home quickly!" I stated and she nodded, she hooked back in my arm, before I teleported us to her home.

"Here we are, seems like your parents are already sleeping…., I guess Katsuo is not here already, but he will probably come soon…, at least my Kagamibushin hasn´t shattered yet, so nothing should have happened.

"Anyways, you better go to sleep soon, we have a hard day in front of us tomorrow!" I stated and she nodded.

She blushed and scooted to my chest snuggling up on it.

"Honey, I hope you have a good night, sleep tight my Knight in shining armour!" She said as she leaned in and I kissed her passionately.

Though this made the goodbye not easier in the slightest, I was far from wanting to letting her go, even though I knew that I saw her tomorrow…., but who knows what might happen in the next few hours, what if something bad happens which steals her away from me.

"You worry too much, if something happens I will call out for you, no matter what!" I heard Sarada stating and I only then recognized that I spoke my thoughts.

"Yeah but what if i´m to late, what if I cant get to you in time someday!" I stated.

"No fear, i´m strong a few hours I can defend myself too before you come.

I am a Kunoichi after all, I love to be defended by you, but I have to hold a certain independence of you, or else I will never get anything done without you anymore.

I have to stay strong too, after all it´s also the duty of a girlfriend to defend her boyfriend!" Sarada stated.

"You are right…, still please take this one!" I stated as I slipped a ring on her finger.

"Oh Bolt!" Sarada stated in amazement.

"It is not what you think…., well not only at least, it´s also a Ningu, some kind of pager…, so to say…, I invented it together with Shōseki san.

Anyways if anyone of us is in danger, it measures the pulse-rate, the Chakra-stream and the symptoms of fear, if there is a danger, the ring reacts and echoes out to its twin, the ring that I will wear.

So if you ever are in danger, then my ring will tell me by getting burning hot, singeing my skin, as long as I need to get in your immediate surroundings.

As long as both rings are out of danger and in the same surrounding of 30 meters apart, the ring remains cold and just a ring!" I explained to her.

"Either way it´s practical and beautiful, thank you so much honey!" Sarada stated as she kissed me deeply.

"Aaargh, you making it so hard to leave now!" I stated as I kissed her back.

"I know, honestly I don´t want you to go!" Sarada stated with a sorrowful voice.

"But you must!" She said.

"Can´t I sleep over?" I asked.

"Dad will not allow this!" She replied.

"Yeah but he…!"

"Its not about butting into my love life, it´s because he paid the villa, so he also has the power to throw you out, even mom can´t do something against that!" Sarad explained.

"That sucks and is quite selfish of him!" I stated.

"Indeed, anyways we better get going it´s soon Midnight.

I will see you tomorrow…, goodbye honey!" She said and looked at me with a tearfully expression.

I was about to let go, as suddenly….

"What´s wrong?" Sarada asked me, confused as she saw my state.

I meanwhile was paralysed at what I just encountered.

"Sarada get your kunais out, instantly!" I ordered her.

"What´s wrong, is someone here?" She asked afraid.

"No, but something has happened with Himawari and her friends, my Kagebushin just shattered and send me informations about her whereabouts, they are far from Home.

On the way to the Forest of death, being chased as much as I could tell, not a place she freely goes to, my parents and I we forbid it to her, since it´s really dangerous in there!" I stated while I took out the Ryūjin.

"Alright i´m ready to go!" Sarada stated, as she held a kunai in one hand and her Katana in the other.

She stepped next to me and I put my hand on her shoulders.

We had no time to get any other Ningus nor our flak jackets, we were fully unsecured against any weapons and still only dressed in thin clothes…., however, I had some aces in my hand.

I had some small scrolls with Ningu and other tools with me, in secret pouches within my Tuxedo.

Enough to repel an attack.

"Here take this, Summon!" I stated, as I summoned some chest and shoulder-knee armour for both of us.

"Why do you have a girl´s Chest armour as well!?" Sarada asked me suspicious.

"For Himawari of course, you and her have the same height and breast size, so it will fit, hurry up, we got to rush!" I stated to her and she quickly put everything on.

It was only provisory protection, still it was at least better than nothing.

"I´m done!" She stated.

"Alright, let´s go!" I shouted and so we jumped.

It was as if running through a brightly illuminated tunnel, I could see my goal before us, and what I saw didn´t suited me at all.

Himawari was grapped by her hair and restrained from behind, while someone put a hand on her forehead.

"Is this what I think it is…., these Bastards!" I shouted as I remembered where I heard about such a procedure.

"The Kago no Tori no Juin of the Hyuuga-clan…, these assholes are trying it again…., I´M GONNA KILL THEM!" Kyūbiko and I, we shouted in unison, for we each loved Himawari as our precious little sister/ protégée.

"Hold on tight Sarada I speed up!" I shouted to her and she nodded.

A few minutes ago, Himawari´s pov:

Katsuo and I, we had a good night together with our friends, after 3 hours Shana and Hiro finally arrived at the meeting place, before we went to amuse ourselves.

A half hour ago, Katsuo and I went to the Karaoke with the others again, after having a taste of it already before with Bolt and the others.

"Geez, I am really bad at singing" Katsuo sighed, as we walked out of the hall.

"Well I admit, I am not better!" I stated to him blushing, as said we were forced by Chouchou, and later by Shana, to sing a duet, not that it was not a nice one but we messed up with the singing.

Still I admit it was funny for sure.

"Geez stop complaining, you guys at least could sing before already, this last half hour was nothing to truly amuse each other.

Remember, we had to listen for 3 hours straight to what some of the clan members had to say, honestly I haven´t really understood a thing, about what was going on there anyways!" Shana stated with blown cheeks.

"Neither did I, but it was boring as hell, I´ll give you that sis!" Hiro, Shana´s 4 minutes older twin, nodded in approval.

"Anyways what shall we do now, we already travelled over the entire festival?" Katsuo asked.

"No idea, it´s soon midnight, so we can´t make much anyways, we soon got to go home if we want to be in time, isn´t that right?" I stated looking at Bolts Kagamibushin which followed us silently around in order to keep us secure.

"Indeed, mom said that we all shall be back around midnight so best would be 10 minutes earlier!" He stated.

"I see, hey, What´s Bolt doing right now?" I asked.

"Dunno precisely, as long as I am here I have no idea what my original is doing, however I think they wanted to go to make a temple visit to wove for their eternal love, He and Sarada!" The Clone stated.

"I see, well I guess we should get us some cotton candy and ice-cream before we make our way home, it does not bring us any further, to try to find something interesting in the last 40 minutes anyways, what do you think?" I asked my friends.

"Suit with me, i´m tired anyways, first these 3 hours of sitting and then the running over the festival, I am beat to say the least!" Shana explained.

"So am I!" Hiro nodded.

"Alright cotton candy and Ice cream is it, let´s go!" I stated excited.

After a while:

"I don´t believe it, how could this guy be out of batons!" I thought as I ate a bit of Katsuo´s cotton candy.

Unfortunately was the man on the machine out of batons after he served Shana, Hiro and Katsuo.

Katsuo then insisted that I would eat on his, which I, after many talk from him did, it was not that I was afraid of getting sicknesses, but wasn´t eating from the same food like an indirect kiss, like drinking from the same bottle?

"And how´s your Cotton candy with an extra portion of Katsuo flavor!?" Shana asked me, nettling me about that situation.

"Oh stop it you, i´m only doing this because I want cotton candy too!" I stated.

"Well you could have from mine!" She stated.

"After you let Yazoo munching on it, rather not?!" I stated looking with a dirty glare at Shana´s Ninken puppy.

"Geez you are so petty, if I would be in your situation I would feel glad, after all you are so able to get at least indirect kisses with Katsuo, the only difference is, that I am not in love with him!" Shana whispered.

"Shut it, we are not like this, I mean, I barely know if he actually loves me truly or not, he claims it thought but I haven´t seen much ever since that day, not like Bolt and Sarada, whenever I see them both they are always like a real couple even before yesterday!" I stated.

"Katsuo is nice and cute yeah, but I want to be sure that I can trust him with my life, and in the last few missions these months we had no dangerous situations at all.

So how am I able to trust in his skills, when I barely have seen them?" I told her.

"There you have a point, still Katsuo is no one who lies, if he says that he´s going to defend you no matter what, then he will defend you with his life, that's for sure.

You know, I think that he´s the perfect match to you, the one who is able to bring you back on the ground if you fly too high, who stops you, when you act too haughty and who still spoils you like a princess, he is like an Uchiha version of your Brother!" Shana chuckled.

"Well we will see, if he wants to be together with me, he has to show me that he´s reliable and able to defend me!" I stated as we walked through the dark lit streets to the Aburame quarter.

"Barf, Barf!" Yazoo suddenly barked.

"What's wrong buddy….., where… on the roof tops?" Shana whispered, as she looked around.

"Guys we are getting ambushed, they seem to be on the roofs!" Shana whispered.

"Dammit, and we got no weapons!" I stated.

"No fear, Bolt showed me a trick, Hiro we need cover!" Katsuo stated, as he took a small scroll out of his tuxedo.

"I´m on it!" Hiro stated, as he released his Bugs, which enclosed us in a large sphere.

"What the….?" I asked at the sight of Katsuo.

"A summon scroll with ten fully packed pouches of Ningus and provisory armour.

Bolt said that it was handy to always be prepared, for you often get attacked when you expect it the least!" Katsuo stated.

"Well that´s nice!" I stated, as he gave me one of the pouches.

"I don´t need one, since I am only a Bushin , if I shatter Bolt will know about the current state anyways and will be here in seconds!" Bolt´s clone stated as Katsuo wanted to give him a pouch before storing the rest back into the scroll.

"Time to show them with whom they messing with, shall we!" I stated after we were fully dressed for battle.

"Of course, let´s go!" Everyone said.

"Alright, here we go!" I shouted, and so we rushed out of the bug sphere, jumping up on the roofs.

"So you found us, lucky you, but that won´t help you, get those guys!" Our opponent before us shouted.

I used my Byakugan to count around 20 of them, they surrounded us.

"Each one takes upon four of them but be careful, they have much chakra and they are probably strong!" I stated.

"I guess so, they don´t seem normal to me, their chakra is different, darker, but I think I have felt it before, I just can´t remember where!" The Clone of Bolt stated.

"Be careful, here they come!" He stated and a second later the kunais crashed against each other.

"Two flies with one beat, the boss will be glad that we get that mission done so quickly!" the leader of the masked men stated.

"As if I let you, Rasengan: Senpō Saikuron hōden (Sage art: Spiraling Sphere, Cyclone Discharge)!" Bolt´s clone shouted, as he blasted his opponents far away, before engaging in a battle with the remaining 16 of them.

"You will not lay a finger on my Sister!" He shouted.

"Don´t get too cocky, we know your weak point!" I heard a voice behind me, I saw that he approached the clone, throwing a kunai with high speed right in his blank spot, but Bolt was able to dodge.

"Well it surely not will get boring with you guys but we got to get this done quickly and retreat before reinforcement is coming.

If not we simply have to make you and your sister vanishing, just like Hizamaru-sama stated!" The leader shouted.

"Hizamaru..., I see so you are from the Hyuuga-clan, aren´t you, no wonder that you know the weak point of the Byakugan..., since you have them yourselves!" I shouted.

"Marvelous, the little princess has found out, indeed we are from the Hyuuga-clan assassination unit of the Branch family!" The leader stated.

"Branch family, so they have the Seal, no wonder that they want to give it to me as well, since I still have no seal neither has Bolt.

Geez, jealousy sure is an ugly thing, I know what i´m talking about!" I thought as I was pushed backwards.

"Aaaarrrgghh!" I heard Hiro shouting as I saw him on the ground, his legs bleeding.

"The Boss only said that I shall put either the seal on you or put you to eternal sleep, he never said that I shall let any of your friends live!" The Man, who towered over Hiro laughed as he rose his sword.

"Oh no you don´t!" I shouted as I used a fingersign.

"I´m sorry, forgive me mother, I have to use that, if I want to safe my friends!" I thought as I was about to use the sign.

"Oh No you don´t!" I heard Katsuo as he ran up to me, kicking an approaching enemy away, engaging in a battle again.

"Haaaa!" I shouted as I used the seal activation.

"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" The Leader and his men laughed.

"Sorry little princess, nice attempt, but our Juin is different, we only can be controlled and killed this way by Hizamaru-sama!" He stated and I paled.

"And now be a good girl and let it happen and maybe, only maybe, we will decide to not kill your friends!" The Leader shouted.

"No, don´t do it Himawari!" Shana shouted, before she was attacked.

"Huuaaaarrrgggh!" She shouted as she spat blood, I could see that her lungs had been attacked.

"Only over my Dead Body I will let you hurt my friends!" I shouted, as I assembled all my forces I could.

Fortunately it was a full moon again, it was not much but enough for an distraction.

"Kuchiyose no jutsu!" I shouted as I rapidly bit in my finger and pushed my hands on the ground.

"What the!" my opponent yelled as he was blinded by the Light foxes that emerged out of the summoning seal.

"Lady Himawari we are here to help you!" they stated.

"Thank you so much, we got to hurry!"

"Katsuo, take Hiro!" I shouted and I rushed over to Shana, pulling her up and under my arm.

"Kitsunee, father Mother, Boruto, if you are with me, please lend me your strength!"" I mumbled and it was as if I felt suddenly full of new energy.

"We go to get out of here, my summoning jutsu will not hold much longer!" I stated.

"But where should we go?" Katsuo stated.

"Not in the town, it will be too easy for them to find us, nd they are killing everyone who sees them, we can´t risk to bring innocent inhabitants in danger!" I stated.

"The Forty-fourth Training ground is nearby, it´s an area where no one without a clear mission freely goes in.

Even the Jonin refrain themselves from entering outside of the time of the Chunin exam!" Hiro stated.

"And this with a reason, there are dangerous animals and plants, which likely can kill us as well!" I stated.

"It's the only chance to get away though!" Hiro insisted.

"Go, I will keep them away, get yourself in a safe place!" Bolt´s clone shouted.

"Shit, alright let´s go!" I stated and so we rushed towards the forest of Death, matching name for matching dangers, practically everything in this forest wants to kill you.

But I had no idea that I was so much more right than usual.

"We are soon there!" I shouted.

"HIMAWARI, WATCH OUT!" I heard Katsuo shouting, I turned around but it was too late.

"BAAAAM!" A damn kunai with a Kibakufuda was about to bury itself right into my black spot.

"Aaaaaaarrrrgggghhh!" I shouted in pain, as I was pushed out of the way and the Kunai instead pierced my shoulder.

"Dammit!" Katsuo shouted, as he ripped the kunai out and threw it away before it exploded, only 2 meters away, pushing us hurtfully on a large tree, right over the fence into the forest.

I hit my head unfortunately and fell unconscious.

Katsuo´s Pov:

"Dammit, Himawari!" I shouted as I saw how she fell down from the tree she hit against, together with Shana.

I jumped after her and caught her, before she hit the ground, she was unconscious.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck, what am I supposed to do now!" I Stated as I looked at my three comrades, one was unconscious, the other massively hurt and the last one could not walk and fight anymore.

"You have to get help!" Hiro stated.

"As if I leave you guys here all alone, they will surely find you and most likely kill you guys!" I Stated as I healed Shana´s injuries still she better get in a hospital quick.

"And if they don´t find you, will animals will do, and your bugs can get rid of them forever.

All I can do is defend you guys, with my life and all my power!" I Stated.

"Himawari sure would love you later!" Hiro joked to ease his pain.

"Well hopefully, after all it might be the last time I can tell her, she just don´t seem to get what i´m saying, I mean it honestly, I love Himawari, but the way I see it, we might will remain only friends forever!" I stated, as I treated his legs, that was all I could do, Onee-chan was way more versed in Medical ninjutsu than me.

"Hey now, if she won´t love you now, now that you defend her like a knight, she just don´t loves you at all!" Hiro stated.

"Well that surely build me up right now!" I Stated sarcastically.

"It sure is annoying to have to follow you guys around, you know, I really would love to kill your pests as soon as possible!" We heard it coming from behind a tree before these guys appeared.

"That guy from before was a damn Bushin, this means that the cavalry will be here soon too, so we better get our mission done, erase every witness and then we get back home!" the enemies' leader stated.

"One step more and I kill you!" I shouted.

"Killing us, but are you even capable of scratching us?" The Leader joked.

"My Mother is a Kikō Isha (Armored Medic) and my father an Uchiha, as their Child I cannot afford to lose!" I stated as I used finger signs.

"Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu (Fire-style: Great Fireball Jutsu)!" I shouted, as I ignited the entire forest before me, with a continuous flamethrower jutsu.

"Ha, well that was nothing!" the leader mocked after a while, as he emerged out of the shield of his comrades.

"Chidori Senbon!" I shouted attacking them with small needles made of electric power.

"You still don´t learn!" the leader chuckled as he came closer and simply dodged the needles with amazing speed, no mater how much I crafted.

"No matter what, I will defend my friends!" I shouted activating my Sharingan.

"Hiro, shield you guys with your bugs!" I stated.

"Alright!" Hiro replied and used his bugs to craft a strong cocoon.

"Oh please what can you alone probably do against us 16 assassins?" The leader mocked me.

"How about this one, Raiton: Raijū Tsuiga (Lightning style, Lightning Beast Tracking Fang)!" I shouted, as i used a Jutsu, which I recently learned from Dad who had been taught it to himself by observing Sensei Kakashi.

The lightning wolves managed to kill 6 of them, before they broke through and attacked me.

"Dammit, I won´t let you go away!" I shouted as the wolves followed them.

"Hey boy, you better take your hound back or else the girls and your comrade are dead!" I heard it from behind, I looked to see the leader has his man having his kunai at Shana and Hiro´s throat, and his own hand was squeezing Himawari´s throat and doing something on her forehead.

"Get away from her!" I shouted.

"You are not really in the position to order us around!" The Leader shouted.

"You better know your place brat!"" I heard it behind me, I only could get a glimpse of silver, before I saw blood flowing and felt a sharp pain.

"Get the Fuck away from my brother!" I heard it behind me, the voice of my guardian angel.

I didn´t even minded the sharp pain of her High heels in my back, as she jumped on it and slammed her chakra-filled fist into the enemy.

"Shit the cavalry is there, but you are too late!" the Leader shouted.

"You think?" Sarada stated, as she looked at the leader with an amused glance.

"Huh, waaaaa..., UUUUUUAAAAAAHHHHH!" the same screamed, at the side of a massive orange fiery claw sticking right through his body.

"How is that Possible!" he muttered before he died.

"No one messes this way with my sister and survives it!" I saw Bolt standing right next to his sister, in his Kyuubi modoo, 9 tails, or better said claws, were raising out of his chakra, piercing through each and every enemy.

"Katsuo are you alright?" Sarada asked me.

"Yes, i´m just so glad you guys finally came, what took you so long?" I asked.

"We only just arrived here, we had to prepare quickly before teleporting and Bolt made some evidence photos to later confront the Elder of the Hyuuga Clan!" Sarada stated.

"Huff!" We heard it behind us.

"Bolt here is still someone alive, interrogate him, I will look after your sister and her friends!" Sarada stated.

"Big Sis sure is awesome!" I muttered, as I watched how easily she made her things.

Me on the other hand, I could only sit there, paralyzed by the after math of sheer fear of dying, trembling like a weak idiot.

"But me, I´m so pathetic, I can´t even defend my friends properly!" I stated.

"No you are not Katsuo, you managed to defend your friends for so long beside of being outnumbered, and this is great enough!" Bolt stated.

"But in the end I still couldn´t defend Himawari properly, she even got injured, if I were as strong as you this wouldn´t have happened for sure!" I stated.

"You must think I'm a bear, so you're trying to bribe me with honey, but I tell you something, Katsuo, so listen well.

Something unexpected can always happen, even to the strongest man

Neither you, nor me, we aren´t all-mighty, even we make mistakes, we fail and sometimes it seems to us, as if we let those down who we want to protect, if they die!" Bolt explained.

"But you are so strong, you killed nine of them singlehanded, as if it was nothing, without breaking a sweat, how can I become so strong like you, what is your special trick, please tell me!" I asked.

"There is no trick, only years of training and the constant reminding of one thing: I am only strong enough to defend everybody as best as I can, because I have so much to lose!" Bolt stated.

"I don´t think I can follow you, I mean if you know what you will lose, wouldn´t it make you even more fearfully?" I asked a bit confused.

"If you manage to make yourself clear, what you going to lose if they die..., their smiles, their jokes, their voices, everything that makes that person important to you.

When you make yourselves clear that all what will remain in the end, would be sheer memories, and memories only, then you get the ultimate desire to go all out for defending them, no matter what, even if it costs your life!" Bolt told me.

"Really!?"I asked.

"One of the fundamental rules for medical ninjas is, that they are never allowed to give a patient up, until he made his very last breath.

So even if you still fail, trying to protect someone important to you, with all our force, it´s still nobler, than to call it impossible and giving up right by the start.

For then you dirtied the memorial of your comrade who died..., even if it seems to be impossible, never give up until the very end..., and maybe, only maybe, you will find a way to make things possible, and it mostly happens to you, when you expect it the least" Bolt explained to me.

"So even if you fail..., no one is going to have any right to make you responsible, when you really tried your hardest to defend them?" I asked.

"Indeed, Father and mother, both of them once told me, that our friends are always in our heart, and even if they die physically, they will never die within us, as long as we have faith in ourselves, for dying physically is just a proof that we even lived once.

If we remember them and keep fighting for the right thing, for what they had gave their life for..., we can truly honor their effort to protect what is most important, the future of the later generation.

Each men we save in battles and war, is maybe one man more, who gives birth to new Children, to a new generation, a new future.

We all are going to die someday anyways, and that makes us the lucky ones, for most people are never going to die, because they are never going to be born.

Just because someone lost faith and stopped fighting, succumbing their-self to a loss of a beloved comrade, which is fatal, not only for themselves but for everyone who should have come after their generation?" Bolt said.

"But what about them!" I Stated to the dead men around us.

"Shinobis are always near the death, engaging in a battle means to also being prepared to die, or to take the lives of someone else.

They fought for what they thought was right and I fought for what is important to me.

Of course it is sad to destroy the life and the future of someone else, but your priority in life is to ensure your own and the future of your family and true friend.

Through my decision I saved you guys life and so hopefully also the life of your future family.

The potential people who could have been here in my place in the future, if I haven´t killed these men, but who will now in fact never see the light of day , outnumber the sand grains of Sunagakure, still it is an inevitable law of nature to be allowed to fight for your life and to have the right to defend your family!" he continued explaining.

"If my father would have given up on fighting that day, because he thought to be too weak to even defend a comrade properly, we all would have never been born.

If all those men back then would have given up, because they lost faith, to be able to save someone neither you, nor I, nor Sarada, and also not Himawari, no one of us all, who came after the war, would have seen the light of day.

We privileged few, who won the lottery of birth against all odds, how dare we whine at our inevitable return to that prior state, from which the vast majority have never stirred?

Nothing ever runs accurately according to a plan we make, and it also not always survive those we want to..., but during the war we should not only think about those we have lost, but about those we can still save.

For having a future is the greatest treasure of mankind, a treasure worth fighting for.

We can remembering the dead ones, after the war is won, that has always been made this way.

Focusing on your task to save those you are fighting for, and those you still have a chance to save, still never give up on trying to save someone, if you live after this principle, you too can be strong Katsuo!" Bolt told while he healed the enemy as best as he can.

"So now to you, I bet you don´t want to die, my friend will now set you under a Genjutsu which forces you to tell the truth, so you better tell me right away why you attacked my sister and her friends!" Bolt asked the man as Sarada arrived at our side, using some finger sings.

"Can´t you think about it?" The enemy meanwhile asked.

"I know it but I want you to tell me what you know!" bolt stated, taking out his phone and pushed it on record.

The Genjutsu worked, I could see it in his eyes.

"We were ordered to capture Himawari Uzumaki, to brand the Kago no Tori no Juin on her forehead, this way should have been prevented, for the secrets of the Byakugan to fall in the hands of the enemy, even if she dies!" The man stated.

"And you were ordered to do the same to me right?" Bolt asked.

"Indeed, you were our second target, and after you we should use the new method also on Salia Hyuuga!" the man replied.

"Who made you doing this, who gave you this mission?!" Bolt asked.

"The mission came from the elder council and especially from Hizamaru Hyuuga, your maternal Great Grandfather.

He explicitly said that you either have to get the seal or vanish forever, it would be better than for you to fall in the enemies' hand!" The man told us.

"Who else is in the Elder council?" Bolt asked.

"I don´t know, I only get my orders directly from Hizamaru-sama

"Did you do it freely or where you forced to it, did you do it out of personal reason or just because it was a mission!" Bolt asked the key question.

"I did it because it was a mission but also because I was jealous, for me no one ever came and told the elders to stop this tradition, my wife and I even my child, my son Gota, we all have gotten the seal, I could not comprehend how you still couldn´t have it after so long time!" the man admitted.

"So you are jealous at the family, who tried to stop the Hyuuga clan from doing their bad tradition..., how old is your son?" Bolt asked.

"5 years old!"

"The official prohibition of this tradition was made 11 years ago, ever since, the participating on this tradition is a crime.

And still has your son gotten the seal in the last 5 years.

I ask you the question, who gave your son the seal?" Bolt asked.

"The Elder, Hizamaru-sama, my son was one of the 2 last in 11 years!" the Man stated.

"You are working for the man, who cursed your son with this Juin, in order to place the very same seal on the children of that man, who tries to prevent the elder from using the Juin on his clan.

Why do you do that?" I asked.

"Hizamaru-sama threatened to kill my family if I decline his command, I was concerned over my family, that's why I chose to help placing the juin on you!" The man stated.

"If your family would not be in danger, would you still have done it?" Bolt asked.

"No I wouldn´t have, I would have declined!"

"Even with your jealousy?" Bolt asked further.

"Yes, I don´t want anybody to have to suffer anymore.

"What did you feel, when you heard about the other kids from the branch family getting the seal?"

"I was angry, I wished they would get a taste of their own medicine, getting the seal on themselves!" The man stated.

"Thank you, you helped us much!" Bolt stated and Sarada released him out of the Genjutsu before knocking him out.

"Now we have enough evidences to get against the Hyuuga-elder "Bolt stated.

"How´s Himawari and the others doing!" I asked my Sister.

"They are fine and over the damn, but still we should get into the town to the hospital!" Sarada stated.

"Normally yes, but if they see us there, they know that we have all informations then they will attack carelessly and we would bring innocent people in danger I think we should hide for now, but somewhere else, contact my father and let them handle things first, if he´s says it´s okay we can get back home!" Bolt explained.

"Guess you are right, but where should we hide?!" Sarada asked.

"The Chunin tower!" She suggested.

"Too far and too dangerous, we have injured people with us, so we will not be able to battle effectively, there must be somewhere safer.!" Bolt explained.

"I know a place...!" We heard Himawari´s voice.

"Do you still remember, somewhere here is the Uzumaki Mask storage shrine, which dad has let being renovated 3 years ago, there we should be relatively safe, since not many people know about that place!" Himawari stated.

"Ah yes the shrine... that would be a possibility, it´s nearby and mostly unknown!" Bolt stated in thoughts.

"Alright lets go there it´s better than remaining here anyways!" he said as he took Hiro on his back, Sarada was taking Shana on her back, and I had Himawari who was conscious again but still weak on her legs.

"Hey..., uhmm sorry that I am so unreliable, I swear I will train more, to become stronger!" I stated.

"But you already are strong, you managed to defeat 6 of them all alone, Sarada told me, that's amazing, I could not even beat 2 of them!" Himawari stated with a smile and a thump up, this pumped me back up.

"You are right, I am strong and if I keep it up I can defend you from anything!" I stated with a smile.

"Yeah i´m sure of that" Himawari explained..

"Anyways let´s assemble our force a bit and then we hurry up!" I heard Bolt´s voice saying.

"Yeah!" Sarada and I, we shouted in unison with pumped up spirit.

Bolt´s Pov:

This Forest is completely different than the rest of the town, it always has been, but tonight it seemed to be even more different, its far darker than usual, there is a strange evil energy radiating from its center.

I felt the same evil aura in the town, ever since we arrived at the temple in the town.

But it seems as if the feeling intensified, ever since we entered this forest.

As I was in the Kyuubi-modoo, I could feel it clearly, there was a strong evil intent somewhere here, but it was normal, there were a lot of Dangerous animals in her so I thought at least.

I was observing Shana and Hiro´s condition over my Byakugan and I saw that their chakra flow began to get absorbed by the outside, little by little.

As if this forest is sucking out the life-force out of them.

"This Forest is different as the last time, I haven´t had that feeling a month ago, not even in the night!" I thought as I observed my surroundings for any wild animals to ambush us.

I thought to have seen something, so I focused my vision on it, but it seemed to only be the Chunin Tower.

"... wait, no there is something more!" I though as I looked closely.

It was exactly 5 miles away from our location, there where once the tower stood, was now the trunk of a gigantic tree raising up to the blood red moon, a tree with a large crown and strange giant flowers.

The whole sight had somethingn evil and sinister.

"We got to get out of this fucking Forest right now!" I stated to them.

"What´s wrong Bolt!" Sarada asked me.

"There is a strange tree 5 miles away from here, a giantic three right in the centre of the forest, that hasn´t been there a month ago, and ..., I don´t know..., but he has something sinister at him, I felt a dark feeling already earlier in town, I thought it might be just the rivalry of the Exam participants, but I feel the same strange energy right here, only 10 times amplified.

Whatever it is, it´s nothing safe, it seems that it sucks out the life force of living beings, look at Yazoo, she´s shivering in bright terror.

The further away we are from this forest the better things get, so let´s hurry towards the shrine!" I stated and she nodded.

"Alright, here we go!" And so we rushed out of the forest, over the fence and far away from the forest at top speed.

A half hour later we managed to arrive at the shrine.

"Hmm, that funny, somehow I could feel the dark energy on the entire way through the forest but since we were on 2 miles distance to the shrine, I suddenly didn´t feel anything anymore, it just seems like a normal forest to me!" I thought as I recognized this oddity.

"So that's the Uzumaki Mask Storage Shrine?" Sarada asked.

"Yeah, after a storm destroyed the last remains of it, Father decided to build it completely new, in honor to our Ancestors, luckily were all the masks intact!" I explained.

2But what are these masks anyways?" she asked further.

"It´s said that with some masks you can see through the veil of time, like seeing bits of the past which had happened at a place, like in ruins mostly.

The other, so the scrolls are saying, are able to let you see the other levels of reality, enabling you to see ghosts, secret worlds in our woods, simply things which no one can see with their normal eyes!" I replied.

"The scrolls were saying that those members who hadn´t the right eyes, used these masks to make them see the true world, the world behind the veil that blocks our vision to see the truth!" I explained, as I entered the newly-build shrine.

"Dad wanted to study the masks, but before he could do that, he became the Hokage, ever since he hasn´t had any time for it.

Same as visiting Uzushiogakure, I heard how he spoke with mom about it, that we will go at this Memorial Day towards the old ruins, to pray for all the lost souls, and to maybe find answers on the questions we have.

Also, he wants to get to know the Architecture of the village, to create a replica of it near our villa, Father is really proud of his clan, ever since he knows their stories, he wants to revive the legacies our ancestors left for us.

One of them he has already rebuild, this shrine here!" I stated, as we looked over the vast amount of Oni-masks.

Twenty-six to be honest, no wait, what was that..., there between them, right in the middle, was a half mask located, which only covered the eyes.

"What a strange mask!" I stated as I grabbed her.

"What..., are you seeing things again Bolt, things non-Uzumakis cannot see?" Sarada asked me.

"If you don´t see a twenty-seventh mask, then yes!" I replied.

"I see, well guess you found something special again!" Sarada stated with a smile, I think she was only a bit jealous.

"Anyways, we better contact father, they probably will be worried to death already!" I stated, as I bit in my finger.

"Summon!" I shouted as I summoned one of my various toad partners.

"Hey, what's up boy!" Gamatech stated as he looked around.

"Hey Gamatech, long time not seen, anyways I need your help, momentarily we cannot get back to the village, but my father needs to have an importan message!" I explained.

"Sure thing, tell me, what you want to tell him?" Gamatech stated.

"Tell my father that Sarada, Katsuo, Himawari, Shana and Hiro as well as me, we all were attacked but managed to get rid of them, that we are all alright and hide within the Uzumaki Mask-storage shrine from the Hyuuga-clan for security.

Also tell him that there is a strange gigantic and evil looking tree, which has appeared right in the middle of the Forest of death, where once the Chunin tower stood.

Tell him that the entire rest of the forest seems to be pested by something dark, something which most likely become dangerous for the town, that was all!" I stated.

"Alright memorized and ready to be delivered, leave it to me!" Gamatech stated.

"I count on you!" I replied.

"Of course, well then see you soon!" The toad stated before I send her over Hiraishin to my father.

"All we need to do is to wait!" I stated as we sat down. Sarada leaned on me and was soon fast dozen off.

"Himawari´s sleeping as well so Shana and Hiro..., anyways, Bolt I wanted to say thank you for your safety, you and Sarada really saved our ass back then!" Katsuo stated.

"T´was nothing, anyone would have done that in my situation.

Anyways i´m really glad you were on their side, especially on Himawari´s, I will not think about what happened if you weren´t there with them, I have to thank you!" I said to him.

"I really like you Katsuo, you know that, and I know that you like Himawari a lot!" I started but he intterrupted me.

"No fear Bolt..., let´s say Himawari would actually want me, it is only obvious that I will give my everything to make her happy and smiling, and I will train much more, to defend her with my life!" Katsuo stated with full determination.

"Then I got nothing to say but, welcome in the family!" I Stated.

"Sure thing..., still, I want you to promise me something too..., it´s not that I want it ever to happen..., but if the moment would come that Sarada ever would die..., please don't let her die all alone.

Even if you can't help her with healing her anymore, don´t let go of her hand, until she breathed her last breath, until she at least has a smile on her lips, knowing you were there.

She shall at least can die, with the knowledge that you were there holding her hand.

that you stayed there not letting her go, no matter what!" Katsuo stated with a pained face.

"I always asked myself what would happen if we are on a mission and mom died without someone there to help her, I was afraid, she would die all alone, but now that Dad is back.

Still, I beg you don´t do this to her!" Katsuo asked me rather whispering.

"I promise you, she will never have to suffer, neither in life nor in death!" I stated to him honest ruffling his hair.

"Bang!" Suddenly a small cloud of dust appeared and Gamatech was back.

"I´m back, I got a message from your father.

He tells you to say at the Shrine, there are some strange things happening in Konoha, people falling into coma, animals dying in high amounts, simply some dangerous things, he said that he first has to solve the problems before he can pick you up, so long you will have to hide here.

He thanks you for the tip with the tree and he´s already at investigating it.

All further things you shall rest on him, all you have to do is to keep hiding and everybody save, as well as prevent anybody from entering Konoha, that's an official mission.

He stated that after this crisis is over, he will come to pick you up, and that he later will have a long talk with the Hyuuga elder, he will use some punching arguments of why the Hyuuga clan has long enough lived in Konoha!" Gamatech stated.

"Well that are good news, although as I know dad, he likely will first smash half of the Hyuuga district to dust!" I stated sweat dropping.

"Anyways good Job Gamatech, get yourself a treat by Ichiraku on my turn but don´t overdo it okay!" I Stated, but warned him.

"One ramen on Bolt then!" The Toad stated smiling before she vanished.

"Seems like we really just have to wait here.

So get yourself some sleep, I will hold the first guard!" I stated.

"Sure thing, I am watching over Himawari, if you need me!" Katsuo stated, before he entered the shrine.

"Your brother is sure awesome Sarada!" I Whispered a si admired her sleeping figure, she had her head in my lap, while I caressed her hair.

"I will defend all of you, no matter what, even if I die for it...,I swore to myself, I will never let someone dear to me dying again!" I Stated as I remembered last year.

The day in which everything changed for Sarada and still she's not aware of it.

No one but I and a few others know about the fact that the heart, which is beating within Sarada´s chest, is...!

(To be continued...)

Part III/ Bonus stories; in-between and long ago: Sarin's Adventure n°1: The demon in the Forest of Death.

Part 3: The travel to Konoha, Of Dragons, Rabbits and Jackals

A half hour after the Children departed, Sarin´s Pov:

We were near Konoha, soaring through the sky on Neherit´s back.

"So Neherit..., about the wild sages, you said that there were demons who formerly had been some of them, but, what exactly are Wild-sages anyways?" I asked after I took a long thought about it.

"Wild sages were former the leaders of the different Jinkensha tribes, each one of them were an advanced race of Humans which had mighty powers.

Their Forces were giving to them to create life, and making life for everyone better, guiding the normal humans to a life in peace.

Originally, there were 12 Wild-sages:

The Foxes of Light; who gather their forces through the light of the Moon especially in the light of Full moon.

The Crows of Twilight; who originally gathered their forces through Light and Darkness alike.

The Wild-cats of Darkness; who gather their forces through shadow and the dark of the night.

The Rabbits of Paradise; who had gathered their forces through the good Souls, getting their forces through harmony, peace and life and.

The Jackals of Inferno; who had gathered their forces through bad souls, getting their forces through hatred, war and death.

The Phoenixes of Fire; who get their power through the sunlight and fire.

The Griffons of Wind; who get their powers through the wind and storm.

The Lions of lightning, who get their forces through electricity, natural or artificial.

The Snakes of Earth, who gather their forces through the rocks and the land.

The Turtles of Water, who gather their forces through the oceans and the lakes.

The Arctixes of Ice, who gather their forces out of Primordial ice within the Arctic regions.

The Toads of Wood, who gather their forces out of the forests and the nature!" Neherit explained.

"Wait what are Arctixes!" Salia asked.

"Arctic Phoenixes, so it gives them truly..., my mother told me about them but I always only thought that they were fantasy!" I stated in wonder.

"Neherit, you said it once existed 12, and you said the Jackals and Rabbits had gathered their forces..., so that means they don´t exist anymore, am I right?" Dad asked.

"Exactly, the Jackals and the Rabbits were opposing forces, like Harmony and Hatred, Peace and War

But the Wild sages of Paradise, the Rabbits, were furious, that the Jackals always forged new plans to make the humanity evil and slaughtering themselves, enforcing their own powers through miasma and the bad souls which were created and through their death released.

In a long war, the Rabbit-Jinkensha´s fought against the Wolf-Jinkensha for the power to rule.

The Both races were almost fully annihilating themselves.

The rest of the Wild-sages, kept themselves out of the war, but punished each of them who later survived, as they tried to use the Humans for their war.

In the end, to be able to survive, the Rabbits began to merge with humans, creating Hybrids and out of them emerged someday the Otsutsuki-clan and Kaguya-Hime, who then triggered the whole Juubi case.

After the Jackals and the Rabbits vanished, the balance of good and evil was about to fall, so the other Wild sages searched to find a new race who took upon them Two, at once!" Neherit told us.

"I see and these were who?" Dad asked.

"The dragons of Purgatory were created, one part of the dragons took upon the rule over Inferno, while the other took upon the rule over Paradise.

The last King of the Inferno-Dragons was Armageddon the shadow-dragon.

The last King of Paradise was the light dragon Kōgenryū, a being equally as strong as Armageddon.

But a new rivalry was created as Armageddon seek to rule over both realms, to gather a maximum of forces through good and bad souls.

Kōgenryū´s legions attacked Armageddon and a long war between the dragons emerged.

Armageddon almost died due to the wounds Kōgenryū brought him.

He only could heal himself by absorbing the entire life forces off all beings, dragons, as well as humans and animals in his surrounding, before he fell in a deep sleep.

Kōgenryū died almost too, he fell to sleep as well resting his forces

In the end, out of the war, only one single dragon survived the war, my master Vidadrac, who then still was a young-dragon, born from a male of the Inferno-dragons and a female of the Paradise-dragons.

Creating the first Wild sage of Spirits, still the other Wild sages were skeptically, since the Dragons have proven to be missteps as well.

Alone the crows of twilight wanted him to be able to prove his worth.

Vidadrac, now adult, fought, in order to defend humanity, killed the two dragons once again as they began a new Batle, having healed from their wounds.

However both Armageddon and Kōgenryū were resurrected another time, after the last Rabbit and Jackals used their Forces and soul-sacrifices to revive them, to take back their powers of Inferno and Paradise.

Armageddon and Kōgenryū, in order to determine a winner, both killed Vidadrac, before fighting against each other again, so they thought at least.

The Mezakan clan, the Crows, managed to reseal his soul into his dead body, with a ritual seal, creating a zombie like dragon, who did not lived but also was not fully dead.

Now almost immortal, Vidadrac managed to kill the two dragons once and for all, so it seemed at least.

Armageddon died and his bones were banished into a sealed den.

But Kōgenryū, in order to save his own life, used his severed body parts to gather the forces of Fire, Water, Earth, lightning and Wind out of his surroundings, creating the five Genryū.

Still the dragons used the power of light to fertilize the land around them to draw the power from the elements little by little, before they were put to sleep by Vidadrac.

Vidadrac, who still had the duty to guard the Gates of the Beyond, could not watch over the 6 dragons as well and so he seeked out a strong clan of Humans, to whom he gave the power and the knowledge to put the dragons to sleep if necessary, creating the real dragon-sages.

The entire clan, which was called the Ryu-Clan and though split in two, were to each guarding either Kōgenryū remains or the remains of Armageddon.

After it´s downfall 1500 years ago, Armageddon awoke once again, through the soul-sacrifice of the last members of the dragon clan, who watched over his remains, who utilized the scourges of Hell, five swords forged out of some remains of the Genryū, after their minor Battle with Vidadrac, before they were put to sleep, to collect the entire souls of their clans fallen member.

Their part of the clan died through the hands of the normal Humanity, who feared the powers of the entire clan but mostly the guardians over Armageddon.

The remaining members killed each and every human which crossed their path and feed them souls to Armageddon, in order to awake him and to slay their enemies once and for all.

But during this war, Armageddon, now resurrected, also consumed their souls, freeing himself from all chains which bind him.

The five swords were left on the battlefield.

Knowing that the remains of Armageddon were not safe anymore, Vidadrac sought to find a solution.

With help of the Uzumaki Clan, the side of the Ryu-Clan that prevented from re-arising and members of the Mezakan-Clan, Armageddon was Banished in the first (actually the last from outside in) Hell-circle.

The swords were gathered together, hidden and sealed by the Uzumakis, for all this time, their location only known to the last remaining members of the Ryu-Clan, that mixed with the Uzumaki clan, creating an unbreakable blood bond of all three Clans, Senju and Mezakan blood in form of the Uzumaki clan and the blood of the Ryu-clan.

To strengthen the sealing of Kōgenryū, Vidadrac gave the Good Ryu-clan one of his fangs, out of which they forged the Ryūjin, the dragon blade, able to use each element of the basic five.

If united with all five natures at once, the Sword is able to transform into the, Kōryūken (Light-Dragon Sword), which can only be wielded by theHikari no kō Sennin (High-sage of Light), a security to prevent anyone from abusing the Ryūjin´s power for evil deeds!" Neherit explained.

"I see, so Vidadrac proved his worth as he fought against his own Conspecifics and sealed them away!" I asked.

"Indeed, Vidadrac never had the desire to conquer the earth, to enslave or feed on the souls.

Still after the downfall of the Ryu-clan and after his second last scholar, Yashin, fell to the darkness as well, Vidadrac knew that he needs to give up the reign of the Purgatory, to another race of Wild-sages, and so he asked the Mezakan Clan, the Crows, to become that race.

And so I was born to become the new Wild sage of Spirits, the mixed forces of Twilight and Purgatory are living in myself!" Neherit told us and in his voice was a tone of pride, still I thought to also hear a tone of sorrow in it, as if he had to give up on anything else, to fill into this role.

"You better prepare yourself, we are soon there, I can feel the miasma strengthen!" Neherit stated after a while of flying through the Sky.

"Say Neherit, you know so much about the past... as if you were there yourself..., tell me, how old are you actually?" I asked curious.

"1600 years in your time count, 16 in Jinkensha-time count!" Neherit stated bluntly, I thought he might be mad at me for asking.

"What do you mean in our time count?" Salia asked confused.

"We Jinkensha count our birthdays in 100 human years, means every 100 years we celebrate our birthday!" Neherit explained.

"That sure must suck!" Salia stated sweat-dropping.

"Not really, watching the world and writing things up, or in my case, guiding the souls over into the Purgatory, Paradise or Inferno, keep us mostly occupied; beside of the Birthday and O-Bon (Festival of the dead) aren´t we celebrating anything else!" Neherit stated.

"So you never knew what it means to truly amuse yourself, beside on one festival each year and the other one all Hundred years, I can´t even imagine that..., do you have a girlfriend?" I asked out of the Blue, blushing.

"Nope, never got time for that, too much training and then my duty, and... Chikami...!" Neherit only said and his voice dropped for a moment, before it became hard and cold again.

"And now enough of the question, concentration, we are right over the source of the massive Miasma Concentration!" Neherit stated as he floated in the air.

Who was Chikami, was she, perhaps..., a close friend to him, maybe even his best friend, if yes..., what happened to her?

"Salia your turn!" I stated, the night had already fallen and beside of the strange red light of the Blood-moon nothing illuminated the ground beyond us.

"I see some kind of a strange tree, with giant flowers, right where actually should be the Chunin tower in the forest of death!" Salia stated.

"A tree with flowers..., that's strange, a Gallow tree hasn´t even leaves, due to the blood, which flows through its veins, gathered through the ground, rotting them away!" Neherit explained.

"Well this tree has flowers!" Salia stated annoyed.

"Then we don´t have to deal with a Gallow Tree here, but something totally different!" Neherit stated in thought.

"It´s strange, normally Rughian should have already met us halfway, alone he is able to make the way in half the time, where the hell is he!" Neherit stated and I heard the true worry out of his voice.

"Rughian seems to be very important to you, am I right?" I asked.

"Rughian is firstly my anchor to the realm of the living, if he would not exist I might have already been consumed by the Limbus, I owe him my life, also has he always been with me, ever since my birth, he is the closest to a Brother to me!" Neherit explained to me.

"We should look first in the town, to see if it already affected the Townspeople!" Neherit stated.

"Yeah if something happened to Rughian, then they haven´t been warned yet perhaps.

It would be bad if we come too late!" Dad stated, while we flew over the Wall towards the center of the town.

"Indeed, anyways prepare yourselves i´m going down!" He stated, as he went down towards the market place, where a lot of Plank-beds for the People were standing.

The people on the ground screamed up as Neherit landed.

"What in the world is going on here?" We heard a loud voice.

"Sarin, Shigure, Salia, what are you guys doing here!" We looked to see Sakura-san walking up on us.

"We are here to solve your problems, as I see you got a thousand of them!" I stated, as I looked around.

"Yeah, Neherit has triggered some strange kind of Jutsu, which lets the people falling into coma!" Sakura stated with venom.

"This is awful but are you sure it´s Neherit who does this?" I asked suspicious.

"Yes, that kind of case has happened in 19 different villages throughout the continent always with maximal kill rate; and this since 5 months, the People die without being harmed in anyways, all at once at the same time dying on heart failure, it´s too strange to be normal!" Sakura-san stated.

"So you think this is all Neherit´s doing, what makes you believe that claim?" I asked.

"Well he´s the only one about which we know close to nothing!" Sakura-san stated.

"Well I don´t think that it is Neherit´s doing!" I Stated.

"Ah and what proves your claim?" She replied in confusion.

"Because I am Neherit!" Neherit´s giant form stated through Mind-transmission before he shrunk to his original form.

"And I had been sitting the whole day with my experiments in my Castle and flew the last 5 and a half hour through the sky, from the land of Mountains here towards Konoha, your friends can witness this!" Neherit stated.

"That´s what you claim!" Sakura san stated with extreme hostility.

"I swear if something happens to my Children, I will kill you personally!" Sakura-san stated.

"And I swear, I will do anything to save the world and humanity, even if I have to do it all alone, so if you don´t intent to help me, then at least don´t get in my way!" Neherit stated with equal hostility.

"If you haven´t anymore question, I will go on, cutting a tree down, or perhaps burning down a whole forest!" Neherit stated as he turned around.

"How can you be so cruel, do you even have a soul, a heart, these peoples were innocent, you know?" Sakura-san stated.

"It´s not as if don´t know this, but as I told you already, I am not the one who attacked them!" Neherit stated.

"Don´t tell lies, I don´t know what for a sick game you are playing, but I tell you one thing, if even one of this people here are dying, you will die as well!" Sakura-san stated as she grabbed Neherit by his collar.

"NOW I´M GONNA TELL YOU SOMETHING; I DIDN´T TRAINED FOR 600 FUCKING YEARS; FLEW AROUND FOR 4 MONTHS TO FIND ANY GLIMPSE OF AN UZUMAKI; ONLY TO LET ME BEING TOLD BY A WEAK LITTLE KUNOICHI-MEDIC; TO GO AROUND AND KILL VARIOUS PEOPLES!" Neherit screamed with all might.

"DO YOU HAVE ANY FUCKING IDEA HOW IT IS TO RENOUNCE FROM ANYTHING, IN ORDER TO BECOME STRONG ENOUGH TO CONDUCT THE SAVING OF THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD, DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA HOW THAT IS...!

TO NEED TO SAVE EVERYONE AND TO STILL BEING HATED, AVOIDED AND TREATED WITH HOSTILITY, JUST BECAUSE OF WHAT I AM; WHAT I DO AND HOW I DO IT!" Neherit screamed at her.

Screaming everything off his soul, what was paining him since 600 years.

Sakura-san was buff after that outburst same as most of us, we always only met Neherit as a somewhat collected man.

No one of us would have thought that such a volcano of feelings would be hiding underneath the shell.

"NEVER; NEVER EVER AGAIN TELL ME THAT I WOULD KILL PEOPLE FOR FUN; EVERY SOUL THAT DIES IS A SOUL MORE I HAVE TO DEAL WITH IN THE END.

IT IS MY DUTY TO BRING THE SOULS TO THEIR RIGHT DIRECTIONS; THE WEAKER SOULS AREN´T ABLE TO SURVIVE ALL TOO LONG IN THE LIMBUS; WHICH MEANS THAT EVERY NEW SOUL, IS ONE MORE TO GUIDE.

IF MANY SOULS COME AT ONCE, I HAVE NOT ENOUGH TIME TO GUIDE THESE WEAK SOULS IN TIME BEFORE THEY VANISH FOREVER:

DO YOU THINK TO WITNESS THAT IS EASY FOR ME; TO WATCH ALL THE FAMILIES WHO PRAY FOR THEIR LOVED ONES TO BE REBORN AND TO KNOW THAT THESE PEOPLE WILL NEVER BE; BECAUSE I WAS TOO OVERWHELMED WITH WORK; HAVE YOU ANY IDEA HOW THIS IS?

YOU GUYS THINK YOU FOUGHT A WAR...; YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT WAR REALLY MEANS!

WAR MEANS THAT THE EARTH UNDER YOUR FEETS IS BURNING AWAY; THAT EVERYTHING YOU EVER LOVED GETS TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU; FRIENDS YOU ONCE HAD ARE DYING; ONE BY ONE; CONSUMED BY A BEING FOR WHICH SOULS AREN´T MORE BUT SIMPLE NUTRITION!

YOU KEEP ON LAMENTING THAT THE LAST WAR WAS SO AWEFULL; I TELL YOU WHAT´S AWFUL!

SEEING 80% OF HUMANITY PERISHING IN FLAMES; THEIR SOULS ERASED; LOST FOREVER; IF YOU EXPERIENCE THE FEELING OF 1.000.000 SOULS BEEING ERASED RIGHT AROUND YOU WHILE YOU ARE NOT MORE THAN 5 YEARS OLD; THIS IS WHAT A REAL WAR MEANS:

AND IF YOU GUYS KEEP ON PUTTING STONES IN MY WAY; YOU MIGHT EXPERIENCE THAT FASTER THAN YOU LIKE!" Neherit kept on screaming; before he calmed down; counting from 0 to 100, before stopping and seeming to be collected once again.

"Anyways if you please excuse me now, I got to burn a goddamn forest down!" Neherit stated through grit teethes, before turning around and leaving.

"Ah before I forget, give Naruto this, it´s the ritual for a portal to the island with which he can go over or let others coming from over there to us, Mito knows how it goes too.

The others should be ready tomorrow, as soon as their body is ready and stable the soul gets inserted and after a half hour they are fully over the dam for one year, so approximately tomorrow at noon!" Neherit explained to me.

"So that's what you were doing all the time, searching for dead ninja´s with exceptional forces, in order to bring them back to life for one year; that´s why you entered all these Graves; even though you didn´t harmed the gravestones and Mausoleum seals in the slightest!" I stated.

"As I say, I do anything to save the world no matter what or how, regardless of the fact if it might be called immorally and if I might get hated for it!" Neherit explained with a side glance at me as he passed me.

"There will be a lot of tears coming, when you keep on doing that, something like this is considered grave-defiling!" I only said.

"Maybe..., but if I don´t do it, there will be a whole lot more of tears and also other liquids flowing, when so many will die.

So many people, who could be saved through them!" Neherit replied, before I heard how he transformed, the people began to wonder in awe.

"Do you need help?" I asked.

"There´s no way from stopping you to follow me anyways, am I right..., so you might as well come with me.

Still I cannot guarantee for your safety, although in your circumstance this will not be that important to look after!" Neherit stated.

"Your circumstance..., hold on wait a second, Yota meant that you are alike him, Rughian said that Yota once was dead and that as long as there is someone who has token the Chain , the resurrected will live further like a normal human, as long as the chained, living person lives as well.

However if that person dies after the deadline, the resurrected is save, but if he dies before, the resurrected will live for only the remaining time of the soul-binding-contract...

And now Neherit speaks about your circumstance and all these cryptic message from before, which Neherit sent to your father..., Sarin are you perhaps..., a resurrected too?" Salia asked shocked. same as Sakura-san who looked in surprise and worry.

"Geeez..., busted I would say..., actually you guys should not have known it before I was close to dying again..., anyways I will tell you anything when I am back, so don´t get yourself killed if you want to have answers!" I said to Salia, before I climbed on Neherit´s back.

"Shall I go with you?" Dad asked.

"No the Hokage surely will need your help, I bet I will be alright!" I stated.

"Alright, I trust you..., Neherit you going to bring her back alive!" Dad stated to the giant Tengu.

"I told you already, I´ll take no guarantee, still as long as you live she will live too!" Neherit explained once again before he took a strong lift, up into the sky.

"Hold on tight, I will speed up!" he said.

"And now off to slay a demon!" I replied.

"Indeed, Sarin, Indeed!" He only stated.

"Still we need fire power, a lot of it, but this Body can only use 25% of my original force, so maybe it will not be enough, to burn down the whole pested forest at once!" Neherit stated.

"Well I think I can help you with that, and remember, the Hokage is still there as well!" I stated to him.

"Guess you are right, anyways we will be soon there, so prepare yourself from maybe being ambushed by the forest.

As I told you before, the pested forest will do anything to keep us away from the Gallow-tree, or whatever this is!" Neherit stated.

"Are you worried!" I Asked as I thought to hear such a tone out of his voice.

"I would lie if I tell you i´m not, the circumstance that Rughian hasn´t returned back to me, is more than just a little bit alarming to me, I think you know that he can only being killed, when his souls is sucked out.

However is a piece of my soul being bound to his as well, together we are as half as strong, as I originally am, but without him, I am only a little stronger than Hagoromo-san, though I am only 600 years older than him.

Hagoromo was strong without a doubt, but as I told you before, Kaguya was not very strong, in contrast to the upper demons after her.

After the last real war, after the rewind, the Juubi case happened once again and the People remind on it, we did not really prevented it because we got our own probelms, a 100 years before, after 500 years of Peace in which i had been Born, the demons broke out once again and kept us occupied on Gensan no Kuni for 500 years,.

It was strange, usually the war lasts 1000 years, same as the break bewteen, and reaches over the entire world, but not this time, this time it only lasted half as long, and now, 600 years later, the next war starts again, all what has happened before seems to be turned vise versa, something unexpecting is happening and i think that it has to do with Luciferius, i think we shortly stand before his re-awakening.

Rughian told me that the Disaster Bell, in my Hometown, is ringing faster than 5 months ago, a significant sign that the upper demons from the 3rd Hellcircle are breaking out, one by one, the bad Thing is, that until now i havent found anyone of them, no matter where i look, they just know how to hide effectively, not even Rughian nor Mito-san haven´t found anyone of them yet, it is as if the earth has sucked them in.

But according to Grandmother Chika, has the seals being weakened, She sent guards to the seals but we have no News from them, i hope that nothing bad has happened so far.

If the demons of the 5th Hellcircle are beginnign to break out, this Body wont be able to be enough anymore, after all ist only a cheap copy of my real Body.

My real body is momentarily resting deep within Isla Jura in a secret, sealed room, within a massive Soul-crystal, created through a piece of each soul of the Mezakan-clan members, it is so to say an Eterna Rugh-on of the entire Mezakan-clan, which enables my Body to gather enough life-force to overcome all these centuries without rotting away, being set asleep, ever since 1100 years!" Neherit explained.

"The members of my Clan called me respectfully, Tir-Ehen, riterus neo Rexurion Espirantiae, because of my wings and my destiny to become the rightful next Wild-Sage of Spirits!" Neherit explained.

"Neherit, Tir-Ehen, isn´t that one and the same name, only different ways on how to write it..., what does it mean?" I asked him while we flew over the forest, near at the wall of the city, to find a place to land.

"Tir-Ehen means Divine Crow, Neherit instead means Pitch-black Raven in your language!" Neherit explained.

"That's a beautiful name too, Raven!" I stated.

"Thank you very much, at guard, we are going to land!" He stated, as we landed after a while on the ground.

"Now is the last chance to go back!" Neherit stated with a more or less worried look at me.

"Well then, let´s wait no longer, let the Party rock!" I stated with determined voice, as I slid from his back.

"Yeah, let´s kick some wooden Ass!" Neherit stated playfully, as we walked together into the woods.

Part 2: Team Uchimaki, a Mission for two:- Part 2/ It´s camping time, Sleeping together, dreams of Fire.

Bolt´s Pov:

The Dawn broke at our first stop, we build the camp at near evening to rest our forces for the next day, and half of the way has already been passed.

It was a good thing that I took so much to eat with us, due to the lost ration, which exploded with Sarada´s backpack, she and I had to share most things with each other.

Not that it was bad though, it was the first time, since the academy, that Sarada and I slept so close to each other, usually she sleeps next to Senpou while I sleep next to Konoha-sensei.

But this night it was rather cold and we had only one sleeping-bag, the ground was really hard, if not I might would have slept on it, offering Sarada my sleeping bag, but at this rate, I had no other option, of course it was rather awkward but better than nothing.

Flashback, 8 hours ago:

"So here we should stop, we ran enough for the day, this here is a good place, we got the lake on the one side and the forest on the other side, enough to get us wood for the fire and water to fill up our bottles and to cook!" I stated.

"And we do have a nice view!" Sarada stated as she looked down the valley which was opening up to us.

"Sure, if the sun goes up we will be awoken, still we better use a shield to defend us against intruders, we cannot be sure that these guys gave already up, even if they might have fallen far behind!" I Stated.

"Boruto´s right, these guys can always come back, if they found us once they might as well find us twice!" Gamatech stated.

"Gamatech got a point there!" lady Katsuyu, who still sat on Sarada´s shoulder, stated.

Luckily Lady Katsuyu was silent the whole time, so Sarada could ignored her, this way she could travel without Sarada freaking out.

Still as soon as we arrived here, she was quickly sat down on the ground by me.

"Still, for now we should go and gather water as well as wood for the fire.

No fear I will use my Byakugan to keep you in my field of vision!" I stated.

"Alright then I will get the water and you the wood.

But what shall we eat, or better said how shall we cook, my entire cooking utensils are gone with my Backpack!" Sarada stated.

"Look into my backpack, I got a scroll with some other scrolls within, which each are cooking utensils and there also scrolls with fresh meat, vegetables and so on, I will go get the wood meanwhile!" I Stated.

"Alright, have a save trip and don´t go too far!" Sarada stated worried.

"Yes Mom!" I replied playfully.

"Hehehe!" I heard her chuckling

Sarada´s Pov:

I looked after Bolt as he vanished in the woods.

"Come back to me, in one piece, understood Bolt!" I muttered as I kissed the Necklace of Bolt.

Bolt had gave it to me at the Starlight festival last year, 4 hours before we were attacked.

"That´s a beautiful necklace, Lady Sarada!" Katsuyu stated.

"You think, well it is indeed gorgeous, it´s a present from Bolt!" I stated, as I released the Cherry blossom necklace.

"By the way, you and Boruto..., are you guys..., you know!" Gamatech asked curious.

"Well no..., not anymore at least, I wish for it but until now it hasn´t happened something!" I stated.

"Wait, not anymore..., so that means that there once was something right..., c´mon tell me, I swear I will not tell a soul!" Gamatech asked.

"..., alright, I will, but once you know you keep shut about it or I will chase you to the deepest pit of hell!" I stated with an enraged expression.

"I will not tell anyone I swear!" Both stated in unison sweat dropping.

"Alright..., it happened last year, around the same time, Bolt and I we sat on the Hokage mountain back home, we relieved some memories and laughed as well as spoke about the coming festival..., after a while the them e shifted to the term of love.

We accidently kissed and then went home before night comes.

We were having a date at the festival, so he picked me up, we went over the festival for some time, before he had to go to the toilet, a little commotion happened which later forced us to flee from the festival, we then went to the Hokage shrine to watch the fireworks from up on the hill.

It was a magical night, for sure.

Then after some time, Bolt confessed to me out of the blue, I was buff, but I knew, now my chance had come, so I too confessed my love to him.

We kissed and kissed and kissed and then...!" I stopped as my heart stung.

"And then..., what happened!" Gamatech asked urging me to tell them more.

"We were ambushed out of the shadow.

They fired with machine-guns at us, Bolt managed to save us through his shield, but they just kept on shooting.

In the end, Our friends came to our rescue, but as we thought we were save, Bolt was shot in the head twice, out of pure luck and wonder he survived, but he fell in coma for 1 month, after he woke back up we quickly could tell that he suffered amnesia and had no memories of the entire day, which means he also forgot his confession to me!" I stated and both were shocked.

"Ever since that day, I wait for him to confess, I don´t want to force him to anything, I want him to show me once again honestly what he feels for me!" I explained.

"I see and until now he hasn´t, right!" Gamatech asked almost whispered.

"No he did not, still I will not lose hope.

The best is that we are even closer than before, somehow!" I stated, drifting in thoughts about this circumstance.

"Sarada, I brought the wood, how's the water?" Bolt shouted from the camp, ending my trail of thoughts.

"Almost done!" I shouted back, before I took the amphora back to the camp.

"Bolt brought a large bundle of wood with him, lifted while he was in his Sage mode.

"So what shall we eating?" I asked him.

"I leave that to the Chef, I will meanwhile craft the shield, if you need me, don´t hesitate to call me, got it!" Bolt stated.

"Alright!" I stated.

"Then i´m going to make some sushi, rice and spikes with the Duck meat, do you think you could catch some fish in the lake?" I asked.

"Sure thing, I will leave us a piece of the Lake and the Forest in the shield, this way we can get wood and fish as well as water!" Bolt stated.

And so each one of us was making his duty for setting up the camp.

After building up the sole ten which we had, which actually was a one man tent, only big enough for the both of us to fit in; we sat at the fire telling us ghost-stories.

"And in the package, sent to him, he found..., the marriage ring of his wife..., alongside the fully unharmed hand which he had cut of her, useless to say that the man suffered a heart attack at this shock, and so his wife was taking the last victim, of this criminal family, with her into the grave..., and that was the story of the Cursed Grave!" Bolt ended his story.

"That sure sounds really awful, just because you aren´t important to your husband anymore you are getting drowned, beheaded, cut in pieces, and then being erased through acid, by him and the only thing that is left of you, is the marriage-ring, which he gives another woman!" I stated in terror in disgust.

"I know, but in the end the ghost of his wife got her revenge, anyways it´s getting really dark we should probably stop now with the Horror stories, we need our sleep for tomorrow!" Bolt stated.

"Guess you are right, anyways, we better go to bed now!" I stated.

"Yeah, anyways which side do you want!"" bolt asked me.

"I take the left if that's okay?" I asked.

"Of course, I will wait outside until you are done and inside the sleeping back, I will sleep with my clothes on, no fear, you don´t need to fear my presence, I can control myself!" Bolt stated as he turned around.

"Well i´m not exactly scared or thinking you would do something with me which I don´t want to!" I muttered, as I entered the tent.

Sarada´s Pov:

"Shanaroooo, come in here and take me the way you want it, be a man, ravage my body and make me unmistakably yours!" Inner-Sarada screamed while my outer shell was not even checking if Bolt actually only uses this opportunity to peep.

To be honest, I even wanted him to peep, but that boy was just too goodhearted to even think about peeping, still he too had a dirty mind, I saw that as he caressed my behind.

But all in all Bolt was one of these guys who don´t force themselves on a girl, no matter how much I long for him to come in and touch me, making me feeling hi lust, letting me know if he at least finds my body interesting, I wanted to be his, I long swore to myself, that Bolt was the only man I would ever fully trust anymore, not after what happened 7 years ago.

Still whenever he sees me half naked or touches me inappropriately, I Freak out, even though i actually wish for it, i ask myself why that is so?

"I´m done!" I stated, as I was dressed in my pajama.

"Alright, well this looks nice you know!" Bolt stated as he looked at my pajama as he came inside.

"Uhmm would you..., you know..., or shall i?" Bolt asked embarassed.

"Well I don´t really mind your presence!" I stated bluntly.

"If you mean..., not that it bothers me, but I thought it might bother you, if I dress in my Pajama while you are still in here!" He stated.

"No, not really!" I stated.

"Yes undress yourself, strip here right before me and show me that hot piece of your body!" My Inner voice shouted loudly, I was glad that my brain kept me from saying all these embarrassing things.

Bolt stripped before me, it only misses the music though, still he simply did it quickly mostly hiding everything from me, showing me his back.

He put his pajama on, before he faced me.

"Well then, we better get ourselves a good sleep, we better depart tomorrow at 09.00 am if we want to hold our schedule in, we can´t afford to waste any time, if we want to be there in before the deadline!" Bolt stated.

"Indeed, but what about a few guards, I mean only in case someone somehow manages to get inside the shield?!" I asked.

"Has already being done while you dressed, 4 of my Kagamibushin are keeping up their guard, next to my shield jutsu!" Bolt stated.

"Ah that's good to know!" I stated.

"Anyways i´m coming in!" Bolt said as he dived within the sleeping back.

"It´s a little tight in here but I think it might work out!" I said as bolt faced me.

"If you want I still can sleep on the ground!" Bolt suggested.

"Are you nuts, the ground is so stony and rock-hard here, you will suffer on back-pain the next day?" I stated.

"Yeah guess you are right!" Bolt stated flushing.

"Anyways we better sleep now!" I stated, as I tried to turn around.

"Riiitsch!" Suddenly a ripping sound emerged.

"Was that the..., the sleeping bag?" I asked halfway at turning.

"Guess it is even too tight to turn around!" Bolt stated sweat-dropping as I face him again, going back in the sleeping positing we had before, facing each other.

"A-anyways, we better sleep now, goodnight Bolt!" I stated as I closed my eyes.

"Good Night, sleep tight Sarada!" I heard him saying before I felt something wet on my forehead.

"Did you just kissed my forehead?" I asked opening my eyes in wonder.

"Sorry I think that was too much!" Bolt stated, sweat-dropping.

"Don´t be..., it felt nice!" I replied flushing.

I scooted closer to him.

"S-S-Sarada!?" Bolt stammered.

"Hold me!" I commanded.

"I-If you insist!" He only stated and held me in his arms tightly, I laid my head on his chest and closed my eyes.

Bolt´s Pov:

Was this for real or am I already dreaming.

Sarada was here, in my sleeping bag, right in my arms leaning on my chest with her head dozing off quickly, with that satisfied face.

My adolescent brain showed me images of a hot passionate night with Sarada, which might has caused this situation as well, I tried to banish them out of my brain, preserving myself from getting a boner.

"Nice, Bolt, you really got this bro!" Gamatech whispered, with a smug grin and a thumb up.

"Go sleeping!" I hissed at him.

"She looks so happy when she sleeps!" Lady Katsuyu stated as she creeped closer.

Both of them came to us as well, snuggling up to us.

"Am I now the collective pillow or what?" I asked sweat dropping.

"Oh well!" I sighed before I closed my eyes as well drifting off into a deep slumber.

I don´t know how long I was sleeping before I got this dream.

A tiny orange flame was floating before me, illuminating a small area before me, around me was nothing but Darkness.

"Where am I!" I asked myself.

"Please...!" I heard it.

"Huh, Who is there?!" I shouted.

"Help..., please, someone help us!" A voice shouted.

"Where are you?" I asked as I looked around but beside of the Flame nothing was here.

"I am here, I don´t know where it is!" the voice stated.

"Who are you?" I asked again.

"My name is Fushichō..., please help us!" I heard the voice again, I think it comes from the flame.

"What happened to you?" I asked.

"They attacked our village and forced our folk to remain silent about it, they have kidnapped me and my mother and placed imposters to gather the force of my Father, Horusaru the 19th, for their own cruel wishes.

I beg you please help us!" The voice stated, with an honest tone.

"I will, i´m going to help you, no matter what!" I replied.

"I thank you dearly but you got to hurry..., if you are really the Chosen of fire, then you must save my Folk..., even if I die, please save at least my folk and my mother!" the voice stated.

"I will, but where are you?" I asked.

"I don´t know, somewhere dark and wet, but my voice echoes when I shout, perhaps a Den or a prison, I don´t know!" The voice replied.

"Alright, I will see what I can do, I will find you and free you, no matter what!" I stated.

"Please I beg you, Help us!" The voice stated weakly, as suddenly the flame got tinier.

"I´m so tired, so terribly tired and hungry!" the voice, now only a mere whisper anymore, vanished with the flame.

"Hey don´t go away, please, hey!" I shouted but it was too late, my surroundings where bathed in darkness again.

Flashback end:

Suddenly light punched me and the warmth of the summer sun radiated over me.

"What was this dream?" I thought, only vaguely remembering it, even though I only woke up a few seconds after the dream, or were it hours?

I don´t even know..., not that i really cared much for that anyways.

"Splash!" I heard a noice of water splashing.

"hahaha!" I heard a laugh...

How long was I sleeping?

I stood up and walked out of the tent, only to get a nosebleed, I saw Sarada in the bikini, swimming in the lake, playing with Gamatech.

"Oh hello Boruto-sama, nice to see you awake!" I heard it next to me to see Lady Katsuyu creeping up on me.

"Hello, nice day, how long was I sleeping?" I asked as I looked around, this place looked even more amazing in the day as in the evening.

"It's a half hour before eight no fear, we wanted to get you up at 8 o´clock!" Lady Katsuyu stated.

"Well I guess I should join the fun then, but where did she got this Bikini from anyways I thought her Backpack exploded?!" I asked confused.

"Which bikini?" Lady Katsuyu asked dumbfounded.

Wait hold on a second, does this mean...

My nosebleed went worsen before I feel to the ground due to blood loss.

"Boruto-sama!" Katsuyu shouted.

I don´t know how long I was out but as I came back to my senses I heard the cutest voice.

"Bolt, Bolt are you alright?" The voice asked me.

"Yes, I am!" I replied.

"uuuh my head!" I whined as I recognized that my head hurt like hell.

Geez why do you fall unconscious right on the stones?" The hissing voice of Sarada asked me, I focused my sight only to get the next nose bleed.

Her panties, white of course, were almost see-through.

"Sa-Sa-Sarada, get dressed!" I shouted before the nosebleed when worse.

"Huh..., KYYYAAAAAA!" She shouted before punching me back into the tent.

"Baka, idiot, pervert!" An endless triad of mean names was following while I tried to recollect my thoughts.

"White panties, Sarada in wet white panties!" I stated blushing deep red.

And so the morning of the next half of our way towards Fiero Village has begun, unbeknownst to us, this event shall be the trigger of something far bigger.

Something, if told, no one of us would have believed today
