It's hard to believe that about 4 years ago this now booming village was the same one that I grew up in.
"Well then again dumbass you did leave for 4 years, so of course it was going to change" said my hallow.
"Shees.. of course I knew that it would change but not this much" and it did. Now there were even more trees, now it truly was hidden in the leaves. Like usual looking as bored as always were the gate guards, Izumo Kamizuki, and Kotetsu Hagane.
"Hold it right there, I cant let you go any further without seeing your papers" said Kotetsu.
How could I forget that I had my hood up still, so I decided to mess with them a bit. "Of course here" I said with the hood still up.
As he opened it I looked up and the hood fell. "My my its certainly been to long" he said.
"Yes it has I mean look at her she actually looks like a woman now" said Izumo now standing in front of me.
"Gee of course I'm almost 21, and you make it sound like I was never a woman" I said giving him a glare that I wish would make him sink into the ground.
"I see that your just in time for Naruto and Hinata's wedding" said Kotetsu.
"Of course, that and I missed being home. So I'll see you two around" I said as I made my way to the Hokage tower.
Like promised me and Naruto keept in touch as much as possible. I for one was happy for him, to be able to get a chance for a family.
"Speaking of family when are you going to start popping some out" said my hollow.
"Man I just got back at least let me enjoy the single life a bit more" I said back.
"Your hundreds of years old and should have settled down a long time ago" she says.
"Well fine in 2 years max I'll start popping some kids" I said.
Well I guess somethings don't change, the tower was still the same. It was so good to be back that I almost ran up the stairs. As I got closer I spotted a familiar black hair lady sitting at a desk in front of the Hokage's office.
"Long time no see, right Shizune" I said
The woman jumped up and looked at me in surprise "S-sakura is that realy you" she said jumping into my arms.
"Yup, and ready to see everyone" I said.
"Yes we all missed you here" she said as she let me go and that's when I got a look at her fully and noticed that she was probably around 5 months pregnant.
"Oo my, look at you" I said.
She blushed "Yes almost 5 months, you should have seen the look on Iruka's face when I told him" she said.
"I bet it was a funny one. Congrats, boy or girl" I said.
"We want it to be a surprise" she said
"We need to get together sometime" I said
"Ok we should" she said as I walked into Lady Tsunade's office.

Its hard to belive that only about 4 years ago I was going to destroy this village that I'm living in now. Not that it's a bad place after a while the people started to warm up to me and stopped treating me like I was lower then dirt. Truthfully, even though I would never say it out loud, it was all thanks to Naruto that it was all possible.
Now here I was in the Hokage's office after being dragged here by Naruto. Its been like this ever since he and Hinata started planning their wedding, he was always dragging me along for "moral support" he would say. More like torture almost makes me not want to get married.
"So were all set right grandma Tsunade, I mean I didn't forget something right all the paper work is in right" Naruto said like the idiot he was.
"For the last time yes everything is in order and you and Hinata are set to get married" she replied rubbing her temples from frustration.
"Alright then lets go for ramen Sasuke" he said as the door opened and in came a stranger in a black cloak.
"And who might you be" said the blonde Hokage as she stood.
"Man I leave for almost 4 years and I'm that unrecognizable that no one can see that its just me" said the stranger as the person pulls their hood off.
"S-sakura" said Naruto as he jumped on her sending them both to the ground.
By the looks of her 4 years did her good, shes now an inch or two taller more fuller, and curves in all the right places. Her face held a regal look, like she could see all your secrets. To top it all off her hair was now to her waist. In other words she looked attractive.
"So what brings you back, not that I'm not happy to see you but ya know" Naruto said.
"You of course, and your wedding with Hinata" she said.

Well I guess somethings never change and that probably for the better. Getting a better look at the happy blonde I noticed that he looked more like his father only with the whiskers on his face.
As I got up from the ground I saw that Tsunade looked as young as always. One of these days that jutsu will no longer work, and then she will look her age. I thought as I shook my head slightly in her direction.
But what surprised me the most was that Sasuke was here as well. Might I add that these past years did him good. He no longer had a lost, cold look in his eyes, now he looked like he belonged. Like he has accepted the world for what it is, a messed up place that we must learn to make better not only for us but for everyone around as well. And yes he also looked good fiscally, he was at least an inch or two taller. Looked even more built than when I left, even after all these years his hair was still in the same style only longer. All in all he looked just as attractive as always.
"My my, I do belive that someones hormones are raging" my oh so loving hollow said.
"It's good to see that your back" said the blonde Hokage.
"Yes, my lady and I won't be going any were, besides I have a wedding to go to" I said.
"Yea and I'm sure that everyone will be happy to see you. So let's go and get every one in one place" said Naruto as he dragged me and somehow managed to drag Sasuke in the proses.
Naruto pov
Man it sure was good to have her back home now we can be a complete team again. Taking a good look at her I can really say the 4 years did her good and she looks more calm, and put together.
Now that I have both Sakura and Sasuke in my hands I'm not letting go of them. Just as we were leaving the tower I suddenly got an idea. I'm going to find a way to get them together somehow. He thought with a smirk.

The first ones that made it to training ground 7 were team Asuma, followed by team Kureni, then team Guy with Kakashi and Sai. Before they came I had decided to put my hood up.
"Alright Naruto what do you want this time" said Shikamaru looking like he wanted to be somewere else.
"He's right we all got places to be" said an annoyed blond girl.
"So you would rather be somewhere else than to see me" I said as I threw off the cloak. Man the look on their faces were priceless if only I had a camera.
"Its good to see you" said Kakashi as he gave me a hug.
"It's good to be back" and as soon as I said that I had Ino, Tenten, Hinata, and even Lee jumping to hug me at the same time. Man I'm going to feel this in the morning I thought as I fell back.
"Why didn't you tell us that you were leaving that day" said Tenten.
"I'm so sorry it was just an in the moment kind of thing" I said.
"But why all of a sudden" said Hinata.
"Well to tell you the truth I needed time away and I also wanted to travel like Naruto and Sasuke did. All though I did take longer" I said sheepishly.
Man it sure was great to see everyone, even in these past 4 years they were still the same, older looking but they were the same.
Shikamaru, I noticed that with the years I was gone, he looked more like his father. From what I heard he was with an unofficial relationship with Temari.
Chiochi, he too looked like his father, but with brown hair. Like always he was munching on some chips.
Ino, well Ino is Ino and still liked purple. She was wearing a shirt much like the one from 4 years ago, but with pants that ended just and inch below her knees, with low heel sandals. Her hair was a bit shorter but still in the same fashion.
No matter how I looked at him he still looked the same but then again that was Shino for you.
Kiba, really grew up physically but mentally I bet he was still the same. He now stood tall but not as tall as Sasuke, and was well built. Also Akamaru, grew a bit bigger but looked about the same.
The one that gave me the biggest shock of all was Hinata. She still looked shy but not as much as before, and I'm willing to bet that a certain blonde was responsible. She had on a lavender dress much like her sensei, with her hair in a long braid, and also low heels.
Lee, well there was not much changed the fact that he looked like Guy's twin.
Tenten had on a red kimono type dress that ended at her knees, with long spandex shorts under. She now had only one bun one her head instead of two. But this just made her look ever prettier. And to top it all off she also had on low heels.
Sai well looked the same but taller, and with a great built now I see why Ino was with him. I heard that after the war that he started to show more emotions and I guess that Ino helped him.
Kakashi, Guy, Yamato, and Kurenai also look about the same but some wrinkles were starting to show.
"So what all did you see" said Tenten.
I started to think and I really can't tell them that I got my zanpakuto and was now probably as strong as Naruto maybe a bit stronger. Or even that I can't use most of the jutsus that I could before, but that can be easily hidden. Or even about my hollow. And my favorite about how I have had contact with another world.
"Yea, cause that last one is such a great way to start a conversation" said my hollow.
"Well you know a little bit of sightseeing and sailing normal traveling. With the occasional passing out somewhere from a drunken night" I said.
"Man, you sure do take after Tsunade" said Naruto while everyone agreed with him.
"Well as much as I would love to stay here longer I would like to go home and rest some" I said.
"Wait, I thought that your parents left to open more shops around the nations" said Ino.
"Yea they did but left me the house" I said.
As I got home, I got out the phone that Kisuke gave me and dialed his number.
"Kisuke Urahara speaking how may I be of service today" he answered in that smartass tone that I hate.
"Cut the crap, I'm just calling to let you and Yoruichi know that I'm in Konoha again. And don't you dare tell anyone I would like to grow old here" I said
"Fine but should you get any complications you know how to reach me" he said not minding my tone. After all he did owe the vizards.
"I'm hoping that never comes" I said.
"By the way, the old man is letting the vizards back without any punishment. And Byakuya wants to look for you" he said. I would like to see him after so long but I just can't, because right now I want to be a little selfish. But I get this feeling that I will see him sooner that what I would like.
"Just tell him that I'm dead that I didn't make it through the change" I said.
"I won't say that but will avert him from finding you too easily" he said.
"Well I guess that's about as good as it will get" I said as I hung up.
Well I guess for now I will just live out this life until they find me. But till then I have a wedding to go to.
Disclamer again
Let me know what you guys think
