They were both in a sort of awe and absolute horror the more they watched Sarada. She was clearly their granddaughter, they both saw glimpses of each other, of their sons', and what they could only assume to be the girl's mother in her. Still the idea of not having a way to send her back to her time was dreadful, "at least we were the ones to find her."

"She doesn't have the scroll to send her back, Mikoto, no matter how you look at it the situation could not be worse." Fugaku went to sit on Sasuke's bed, he felt exhausted, Mikoto followed closely behind, both unwilling to look away from Sarada. "Sarada," instantly her eyes lit up in attention, Fugaku wondered if a part of her felt the connection he and Mikoto felt towards her, "Mikoto and I have two sons and when they get here we are going to play a game okay?"

Her eyes instantly widened, "is it the quiet game?" Fugaku couldn't help but smile at the disdain in her voice, "I always win, but I don't like the game cause it's too easy, can we play puzzle games instead?"

Fugaku explained, "it's not the quiet game, though I am very proud of you for being the champion." Sarada grinned at his words, "this game is just not telling my sons your name, or your parents' name."

She seemed to think it over for a second, "what do I get when I win?" She said it so smugly that Mikoto and Fugaku gave each other a look that said, that's our grandchild.

"Anything you want." Mikoto was the first to answer, when Fugaku glared in her direction she told him, "she is three, what harm is there?"

"Excuse me, but I am almost four. My birthday is in March, and mama said that's next month." She was clearly exasperated by having to correct her, she even whispered to Fugaku, "I've told her so many times!"

He nodded in understanding," Mikoto she is almost four, clearly Sarada shouldn't have to correct you" Mikoto responded by sticking her tongue out at him, Sarada did the same, "you are being a negative influence on her." He tried to sound stern, but the amusement in his voice was impossible to miss, Mikoto responded by sticking her tongue out at him again, this caused Sarada to giggle.

After Sarada stopped laughing she became quiet, concerned Mikoto approached her, "honey what's wrong?"

Sarada's eyes were wet with unshed tears, her hands were forming fists, "I miss my mama and papa. You two are nice but…"

Hugging Sarada, Mikoto told her, "oh honey it's okay. Don't worry we'll get you back to your parents in no time." Mikoto hated lying to her, but what choice did she have?

Standing up, Fugaku ruffled Sarada's hair a little, "I'll look at the scroll and see if there is a way to send her back without the return scroll. Stay with her, I'll pick Sasuke up from the academy, I'll search the area where you found her. Just in case she dropped something there."

"I'll go and help you with the scroll as soon as I can."

It didn't take long for Sarada to fall asleep in her arms, or for Mikoto's anger to rise at the girl's father. Deciding to check up on Fugaku, Mikoto laid Sarada on Sasuke's bed. When she checked on Fugaku in his study found him leaning over his desk, his frustration in frown on his brows. "Have you found anything?"

"No." He looked up then a part of him hoping to see Saradad, "where is Sarada?"

"She fell asleep, I laid her down on Sasuke's bed."

"Not even with my mangekyo sharingan could I see anything. I didn't really think I would find anything anyway." Fugaku would have slammed his hands on the desk if it wasn't for the need to remain calm. His frustration out and about would only keep him from thinking properly. "Those boys are going to send me to an early grave." Sitting down on his chair he added more to himself than Mikoto,"I just don't understand, why she only had this scroll."

"She could have dropped it when she arrived. Then again, the way she talks, the way she moves, its very adult like. She reminds of Itachi, and he would never drop something like that." Mikoto couldn't help the smile at the comparison. "It might be better for me to search the area, where I found her, I'll go and then I'll pick up Sasuke."

"I'll pick up Sasuke."

"No, I'll pick up Sasuke, someone needs to stay home, we cannot have Sarada running around Konoha, and I know exactly where I found her."

"I will go."

"No, I will."

"Mikoto." The look he was giving her was one he used on their boys, but he forgot the boys were more afraid of her.

"Fugaku," she put an arm on her waist daring him to defy her.

"This is ridiculous, we both clearly want to see who her mother is. However, as you have mentioned she is in Sasuke's class and you have seen her. Thus, I should be the one to go. Besides, Itachi will be home soon and you know how he feels about my cooking."

"Fine, but only because you can't cook." Even though she agreed, she was clearly unhappy with the result.

"When you pout like that, you look just like her." There was such a warmth in his voice that Mikoto forgot why she was unhappy for just a second. "You were right."

"About what?"

"She is beautiful."

A/N: a few things I wish to address, first is that Unexpected is supposed to be super short to begin with so I am thinking of working on it out of Beginnings, meaning have it be properly worked on like Timely... Its supposed to be short enough that it shouldn't keep me from Timely. I also wanted to reply to some comments. I don't want you guys to think I am ignoring you.

To the person who wants me to write more SasuSaku break ups, I will do my best, but it is not easy I need the proper inspiration, though I do have one idea I am developing at the moment. Hopefully you will get to see it soon, though its not really a break up... but it kind of is...

to the person who wanted more on Recovery, the plot for that story is older than Timely for me, and when I do write more to it, expect it to be out of Beginnings and officially its own story, but there would be a reunion... if anything it would be my first real attempt of slowly building up a relationship instead of working on an established one.. which is scary for me...

to the person that wanted more for Hidden, you are asking for a lot, not necessarily a bad thing, its that I have three different versions of the next part and a new version I am considering, I am having commitment issues, and I think its due to the fact that I rushed into the idea, but don't worry there will be more, though don't expect Hidden to be a major plot story, it would definitely be more of glimpses into that world, and the focus would likely be Sarada more than SasuSaku.
