Jiraiya still unsure if this right thing to do, the pro of the meeting Fugaku and the con of meeting Fugaku…
Deep in his mind he knows he should inform his wife and grandson but he don't want them to be crushed if it untrue and yet they would kill him for daring to left them behind in this matter related. Sighing is all he can do now…
He wonder how deep is Kyuubi hatred to Uchiha if the vow is not indicates. His gaze never waiver from the falling leaves yet his mind is filled with a blond girl images with hundreds of question.
'Is she mischievous like Minato or fiery like Kushina?'
'Is she prefers ramen more than onigiri?'
'What is she like?'
His hearts felt like a blossom blooming in spring with all of the thought, wanting to meet her and get to know her…
But the blossom is wilted, the spring turn into drought with new thought that invaded his mind, harsh but truth.
'Will she blame us for not searching for her?'
'Did she turn to be bitter to us?'
'Will she… ever to accept us as her true family?'
Cold dreads fill him, as the train of the thought brings him to darker side, he tried to think positive and yet his mind manages to twist to other things. With new positive answer would came more negative answer that in the end Jiraiya just… let go of all the thought from his mind and he blamed his writers mind to be that imaginative and dramatic.

Sasuke can't sleep again that night, as his sister teary faces keep on hunted his sleep and that Kyuubi bastard face keep on replaying in his mind.
"Sooner or later, I would go crazy if this continue"
He gets off from his bed to the mini refrigerator. A can of cold beer in his hand, he watches the full moon from his windows.
"The sooner it's over the better" he raised his beer to the moon as saluting; while his eyes eyeing the metallic object that seem glimmer in the moon light at his bed stand. Smirk that formed is seemed different from Sasuke normal trademark Uchiha's smirk as it's for farther chilling and cruel.
