- Awe -

I remember being overwhelmed by canon characters on my second birthday a couple of years ago. Mostly Konoha shinobi and their kids. Something that I definitely took away from the experience was something completely unexpected that I would have never predicted-

"Sachi, watch it!" I just realized that I was about to crash into a pole had my sister not yanked me away at the last moment. I was a very distracted person.

Turning to Sarada, I sheepishly apologized and thanked her for the save. She just huffed in exasperation, waving off my apology.

"I swear, one day you're going to walk into a wall without me." Now that was a bit of an exaggeration.

Rolling my eyes, I continued walking away from more obstacles on the road. Me and Sarada were getting some takeout for an early dinner. We were already old enough that Mom returned to her full-time hospital job and Dad felt comfortable enough to go on longer missions while we stayed home by ourselves. Normally Mom would come home for a late dinner but she send a message that she wouldn't come home until late hours.

Our younger brother Itamo was over at the Hokage's home since he was almost two. Itamo was a quiet toddler, contrasting his bright pink hair and green eyes. He was also the cutest baby and no one could argue otherwise to me.

"Sachi you're day dreaming again." So I was.

"Sorry Sarada." She was used to it at least.

"Maybe we should get something with beef, Mama says we need protein to grow strong and healthy." She said while looking up in thought.

"I'd prefer chicken today. Beef is too much effort to chew. Boruto's annoying antics really take the energy out of me." To be fair, I had nothing against him initially, but he took after his father's youth in the annoyance department as well as looks.

My twin chuckled, "You sound like Shikadai with the 'too much effort'. But I feel your pain when it comes to Boruto. He's such an immature idiot!" Ending her sentence with a huff.

I seemed to have a knack for being clumsy without daydreaming because my face crashed into someone's legs and I ended up stumbling, only for a large hand to be placed on my head, balancing me. Flustered, I looked up to see a masked face with silver hair sticking out in every direction.

"Lord Sixth!" There was my ever polite sister going at it again. Though I was embarrassed in front of the former hokage too.

"Maa Sachiko, you should be careful when walking blindly." Kakashi Hatake flashed me that eye smile that seemed to be his signature.

I ran my finger through my hair in nervousness, "Sorry Uncle Kakashi."

"It's no trouble. But where are the two of you off to in such a hurry?" He inquired.

"Oh, Sachi and I were going to get some dinner in town."

That caused the elite ninja to adopt a thoughtful look complete with a finger supporting his chin in a pondering manner.

"Sakura is busy at the hospital again yes?" We both nodded. "Well that won't due at all."

"Eh?" My could not seem to catch what was coming. I was not so ignorant.

"We've eaten dinner by ourselves before Uncle Kakashi." I affirmed.

"Now don't take that the wrong way. I was just thinking that you two might want some company besides yourselves. I know it can get lonely even with only some other people." I assumed he was referring to his own lonely and reserved childhood. Great, now he was making me feel like a jerk.

"Why don't you two come have dinner with my family tonight?" ... his FAMILY?

"That would be great Lord Sixth! We would really like that." Sarada seemed to chime in as I was still processing what Kakashi just said.

"Excellent, now let's get going, my wife is probably already cooking and the kids should be home too." Sarada took his left hand and he completed the chain by snatching my left hand with his right. Kakashi has a wife and kids! I thought I had landed straight into the post-canon world, but this was not what I recalled at all. But I was kidding myself. With my inclusion, there were bound to be other alterations.

I brought my attention back to the conversation Kakashi and my sister were having as we walked toward Kakashi's abode.

"-teaching me the different pressure points on the body and how to target them!" My twin loved to brag about what she was learning even before we could enter the academy. She continued to talk about medical stuff as usual. I personally did not have much interest in our mother's discipline.

The silver-haired shinobi hummed in acknowledgement glancing at me. I tilted my head in honest curiosity. He stared for a moment before smiling again.

"-but Boruto said it was stupid so me and Sachi taught him a lesson with the moves Papa taught us for grappling someone-ah?" All three of us stopped in front of a modest looking house. So this was where Kakashi lived? Seemed nice enough.

"Here we are." Afetr unlocking the door, we all stepped inside. We removed our shoes before following Kakashi toward the kitchen door.

Someone was preparing food inside, "Kakashi, who did you bring home?" That voice, it sounds so familiar, but I can't think of-

"Just the Uchiha twins. Do you need help?" That was when the previous speaker stepped out of the kitchen and my jaw practically dropped.

Donned in an apron that printed "Kiss my ass" stood a woman with cropped dark purple hair and pale hazel eyes. She was wielding a wooden spoon which probably deadly in the hands of a former kunochi. Kakashi's wife was Anko Mitarashi!

"I may be a shit cook but I think I can handle dinner for one night Kakashi." flipping her hair back with some irritation. The former ninja was aged more than I recalled and gotten a bit chubbier yet still held the toned muscles of a trained shinobi concealed by the housewife appearance she currently held.

"Eh, hey brat what are you staring at?" I must have been staring slack-jawed for a long enough time.

"Um, you're really pretty." Was that my voice? Sarada balked in surprise and Kakashi seemed amused.

The target of my compliment paused before letting out a deep laugh.

"I like this one Kakashi, maybe you should just send her in your place at the table nest time." Kakashi blanched.

"Sachi you should be careful about what you say out loud." My sister breathed exasperatedly.

I shrugged while burying my lower face in my collar out of slight embarrassment. I did always get myself into these situations.

"Anyway can you get the kids and the twin brats to the table. I'll leave that to you husband-dear." She smirked before returning to the cooking. Hopefully nothing burned while all that had occurred. Burnt food was literally ash and I hated burnt food in the past and still did.

"Maa, I am now regulated to kid-collecting duty? How cruel of my fearsome wife." Kakashi mocked in fake-despair.

Sarada giggled at his expression before inquiring where to find his kids. Wait a second, he and Anko had kids? Jeez I don't think my brain can handle all these revelations in one day. I wonder how old they are.

"Right lets go before Anko withholds dinner as a hostage." My sister and I trailed after him partially lost in his house.

We entered the living room area where a mop of dark hair was draped over the back of a couch.

"Sayaka, we have guests for dinner today. So get up." Some grumbling was heard before a figure did in fact get up from the furniture. A girl who looked to be around ten or eleven had messy dark hair with pale hazel eyes like her mother. She had a kunai pouch strapped to her leg, a sign that she was an advanced academy student. Her hair was loose and to the length of her shoulder. She seemed rather sleepy too.

"Hey its Sarada and Sachiko! Nice to see you munchkins again!" Her eyes regained some alertness as she grinned ferally at us. Wait we've met before? When?

"Oh your the sadistic big sister that came to our birthday last year!" Sarada exclaimed in recognition. I guess my memory must be quite bad if I can't even remember something like Kakashi having children. Curse my youthful body!

"Nice to see you again Big Sister Sayaka." I chorused after my sister's outburst. I would just go with the flow she provided for me. Thank you sister dearest.

Said girl leaped over the couch in one motion before addressing her father, "I'll go set up the table Dad. As long as you find Hitomi and Kyosuke."

"Alright, now go on Sayaka. I'll help you with target practice after dinner." He ruffled her hair while she smiled with somewhat sadistic glee. I guess they had to take after their mother in some ways.

"Come on, one of them is probably outside training right now. Let's go fetch them and then eat." Sarada and I followed him to the screen door. The yard outside was grassy but had a oval shaped area with bare ground and some training posts. A silver-haired figure was punching the post.

"Hey Big Sis Hitomi!" I guess Sarada was recalling them gradually. Said person turned around while pausing her workout, sweating slightly. She had black eyes with spiked silver hair held in a ponytail. A dark green headband with Konoha's symbol was tied around her forehead. She wore a short black kimono with purple gradient on the ends and black shinobi sandals.

Her eyes widened in recognition and she smiled in a manner that seemed subtle compared to her sister and mother's. "Ah. You brought the terror twins home dad?"

"Why must everyone remind us of that one time. It was all Sachi, I was not the mastermind." Sarada mumbled in annoyance. She never did forgive me for that one incident I caused for my own amusement. Now I was banned from giving devious ideas to the other kids. Too bad, the looks on the adults faces were totally worth it. And jeez she makes me sound like some despair-obsessed murderous mastermind analyst.

"Let me guess, dinner's ready?" She asked Kakashi. He nodded and turned around to go back inside. His eldest daughter turned back to the post, "I'll be there in five."

"Come on Sachi." My sister guided me back inside as well. Kakashi stood at the foot of the stairway, "Kyosuke, come down for dinner!"

Shuffling came from upstairs as a silver-haired head peaked over the railing. A young boy, around seven years I'd guess, with messy hair and dusty brown eyes smiled in glee.

"Dad, you're home already? I'm coming down!" With that the kid jumped down onto the floor next to his father. I was still not used to everyone ninja skilling their way even avoiding stairs altogether. What was the point of having stairs then?

"I learned tree walking today Dad! Well I didn't master it yet but I managed to maintain it!" Kyosuke babbled while crouching as if to minimize his excitement. He seemed to really look up to Kakashi. That seemed to give him mixed feelings what with his own father's relationship with a younger Kakashi. However it was mostly pride and sheer happiness that the elder silver-haired ninja radiated.

He bent over to his son's level and ruffled his similarly spikey hair, "Great job Kyosuke, but don't forget to take it easy too. Don't push yourself." The boy beamed and nodded rapidly.

Turning both his own and Kyosuke's attention to us, he gestured to the dining table, "Now why don't you three go and sit down. I have to go help Anko."

Kakashi stood up and left us alone with Kyosuke. He looked us over with a grin before taking both of our hands and dragging us to the table.

"Nice to see you again Gloom and Doom." A faint memory of a silver-haired boy calling us those names seemed to come out of nowhere. If memory served correctly, I was the gloomy one. Sarada was doom because she started fighting Boruto within seconds the first time Kyosuke met us. Apparently even as a toddler I was still appeared depressed and unmotivated with life. That or Kakashi's kid was way too observant even for a shinobi child.

He was dragging Sarada as she dug her feet into the floor while complaining at the nicknames, "I told you those two names only fit Sachi not me!"

I couldn't care less. Honestly it was mostly Boruto that ticked me off, I would like to say that I was quite chill ignoring him. This was another example of it showing.

"I think I fit doom better than Sarada what since I scare Boruto more." Smirking I turn to see my twin's reaction. She is not amused to say the least.

Shrugging off Kyosuke's hand. she spun to face me in a challenging manner, "What was that?"

Having lain the bait already, I couldn't help myself to continue, "After all he immediately runs away from me, while you have to threaten him first. I would think your intimidation skills need work sister." Her cheeks were pink with indignation and I prepared myself for the inevitable brawl between us, which was actually a rare occurrence.

~ Kakashi POV ~

Having heard the conversation between the two Uchiha twins, Kakashi couldn't help but feel nostalgic. Sarada spoke with her mother's logic and temper, but both her and Sachiko had the competitive and rebellious streak from their father. Sachiko took after him a bit more, though she was not nearly as active as her father had been in his youth. She spoke each word as though she did not want to waste a single word that was not necessary.

Sasuke was much more expressive currently than he admitted but Sachiko held a similar reserved and observe attitude.

His son seemed to become nervous from the intense aura emitting from both sisters as they held challenging looks at one another. Kyosuke looked ready to bolt or as Kakashi would phrase it, a tactical retreat from the impending fight between the two young Uchihas.

Well Kyosuke was a responsible boy, so Kakashi would let him deal with the two for now. After all, it would not due if Anko accidentally put poison in the food again. Last time, his eldest daughter had to rush to the hospital explaining that yes her whole family was poisoned, and no it was not an enemy attack or infiltration. He could never convince her to move the poisons somewhere other than the food cabinets and when cooking, his wife tended to carelessly mix up the sauces with her special poisons.

Also Sakura would maim him if her daughters were poisoned under his watch.

Thanks for reading! I've been really busy this past winter break but now I have way more time. However my inspiration is erratic. I was thinking of giving this fanfic more coherent story line and plot but drabbles come out more this chapter was pretty long compared to the previous ones!

However my other Naruto SI OC story is planned to be a coherent story with more serious and realistic writing. It is called Maple Leaves so check it out! It focuses on Kaede Uzumaki and could use some more love for me to be inspired to write more!

Review, Favorite and Follow please! Thanks
