Okay all. I hope you've enjoyed this fic so far. Here is the last chapter. A bit of info overload and such. Sorry about that. But I hope you like this last chapter a little. The sequel is called "Hearts Torn in Two" so if you feel like reading it please go ahead. It is however a bit of a mind messer. Thanks to all of you brilliant readers and once again I hope you enjoy the last chapter of this fic.

To my anonymous reviewer, animechick, thanks loads for the review. I'm glad you love the story and the idea of a sequel. I've put the title of the sequel above but I'll repeat it. It's Hearts Torn In Two and I have already put it up.

Two Hearts One Soul.

Chapter 35 – Here We Are Again.

xXxXxXxXxXxXx

A lot of things had changed in the village of Konoha. It had been six years now. There had been no word of Akatsuki movements. Of course with most of the members dead, everyone assumed they were regrouping and would probably be back after licking their wounds. Many of the children born in the village were still training to go to the academy.

Sakura seemed to keep having children. She now had seven girls, and still only one son. Sasuke and Naruto always expressed surprise that Sakura managed to keep going. Sakura seemed to be both pregnant and hormonal, or a new mother and exhausted. Lee was quite happy to be the father of seven daughters and one son. However, even he could admit that 'their flames of youth sometimes outweigh my own flames of youth' as he put it. In other words, his many children were exhausting. Kohana was now a twelve year old graduate of the academy. Kasumi was ten and still a student at the academy. Riku, the only son, was eight and had started a year ago, at the academy. Tsubaki was six and would start next year. Then of course were Sakura's own twins (what a surprise that had been) Ren and Ran, who were four and a huge handful. Both had their father's eye colour and their mother's hair. Then there was Ayaka, who was two. She had her father's hair and eye colour, but Sakura was thankful that none of the children had their father's giant eyebrows. Last but not least was the most recent addition to the family, Honoka, who was only a few months old. She was an extremely quiet baby, who might as well have been Sakura's clone in looks. It hadn't taken long for the baby blue eyes to change into the vibrant green that Sakura also possessed. All in all, Sakura was a busy woman, what with her eight children, her two cousins, Kaede and Hanako, who were both Chunin now, her five-year-old nephew, Kenji and her four-year-old niece, Naoko, her job at the hospital, and of course, helping out at her mother's shop. Hanasuki, was an old woman, but she still had time for her sweet shop. Naoko, Ren and Ran had all decided that they wanted to help look after the sweet shop. They didn't want to join the academy. Of course, Watashi, Sakura's brother and the father of Kenji and Naoko, would always be back and forth from Konoha to visit his children, but he had wanted them to be able to go to school and pick their own lives. With their mother dead, he couldn't drag them along with him on his trade routes. Sakura understood this perfectly well, which is why she made sure that Kenji and Naoko made their own choices.

Akina, Sakura's cousin, had just had her second child. A little boy that she and Sai had named Akio. They had a two year old daughter called Kiku as well. Sai was a member of Anbu, under Sasuke and Naruto, in their own squad. Akina, stayed at the house for the Wave students, making sure each child was cared for properly. The Land of Waves produced good students every year, and Konoha still nurtured them.

Kimi, the healer, still lived in her own home next door to Ichiraku Ramen, with her husband Shinji. Her two children were both full-fledged Shinobi now, and fought for the good of Konoha and the Land of Waves. Haru was nineteen and Kai was seventeen. Haru had become a Chunin teacher at the Ninja academy, and Kai was working his way up in the ranks. He wanted to join Anbu, but he was still young and Tsunade didn't want to put the boy through any tests that he couldn't handle yet.

Temari and Shikamaru had a three year old son, Shikaichi, to add to their seven year old daughter, Tenshi. Shikamaru's dream of having a girl first and then a boy was one that seemed to have been granted. They lived in Konoha happily. Tenshi had just started the academy also. Shikaichi had his father's personality and his mother's blonde hair and blue eyes.

Ino and Kankuro always kept in regular contact with the village. Ino had had two more children since Inoshiro, who was now seven. A four year old boy called Tai (who looked like his father) and a two year old girl called Asuka (who had her father's hair and her mother's eyes). Gaara still trained Inoshiro.

Gaara, as Kazekage, had found a nice girl and settled down. The girl, however, could be just as insane as he was. Hence the new 'Domestic alert' that had been invented in Suna. When Yukiko got angry, everyone ran for cover, including Gaara. He had a two year old son, Yori, who had his blue/green eyes and his mother's dark blue hair. Gaara also had a three month old daughter, Hoshiko, who had his blood red hair and his wife's deep, azure eyes.

Kakashi and Anko had married. In addition to seven year old Obito, who had just started the academy along with many others, they had a three year old daughter called Rin, after her father's other dead teammate, and a one year old daughter named Yuriko, who held her mother's looks.

Itachi and Mikoto lived on the Uchiha estate. Along with twelve year old Zephyr, who was their son in every way but blood, and seven year old Mikoto, Itachi and Hana also had a three year old son, Shisui, and a baby daughter, Tsuki. Zephyr was also a graduate of the academy, like Kohana, and Mikoto had also just started the academy.

Last but not least, Naruto and Sasuke were living a happy life. Hijiri and Hisoka were now twelve. Minato and Kushina were seven and starting the academy. Then there was five year old Itsuki, who had Sasuke's hair and Naruto's blue eyes. There was three year old Hikari. She had Naruto's blonde hair and blue eyes, and Naruto's personality to boot. Last but not least, was one year old Arashi, who had Naruto's blonde hair and Sasuke's black eyes. However, Arashi's eyes had flecks of blue dotted all over them.

Of course, none of the other families in Konoha changed much, apart from the fact that everyone got older. On this particular day, everyone was gathering for one reason. Hijiri, Hisoka and Kohana were graduating, as well as Zephyr. Everyone wanted to congratulate the group of four. So everyone was converging on the academy.

Tsunade would have allowed Hijiri, Hisoka and Kohana to graduate earlier, but the three children had come to her and insisted on the extra year. All three of them had told Tsunade that if their own parents hadn't been ready for missions at the age of twelve, why should they be ready at age eleven? Tsunade had almost jumped for joy when they'd asked for the extra year. After all, the three children were geniuses. But they were still children. She wanted them to enjoy their lives as much as possible.

When everyone waited outside for the graduates, Naruto and Sasuke were stood together watching for the other students to pile out of the academy. "You know Sasuke, it feels like it was yesterday we came out of there. But it also feels like it was a long time ago. If you get my meaning?" Naruto questioned. Sasuke nodded.

"I know what you mean Naruto. It's nostalgic. We have kids that are graduating today." Sasuke replied.

"Do you think they'll have the same adventures we had?" Naruto asked.

"Do you think they'll be on the same team to have the same adventures?" Sasuke replied.

"I hope so. It didn't hurt us. Maybe they need the growing experience." Naruto replied. The couple smirked as students started piling out. Graduates ran over to their parents, and Sasuke and Naruto saw Zephyr run over to Itachi and Hana, to show off his Konoha forehead protector proudly. Kohana barged through the crowd to hug Sakura. Sasuke and Naruto almost panicked for a moment. Then they saw Hijiri and Hisoka, both had an arm around the other's shoulder, both with forehead protectors around their heads. They grinned at Sasuke and Naruto widely.

"We got the highest scores Father! Dad! We're awesome!" Hisoka yelled out happily. Naruto and Sasuke both laughed when Hijiri elbowed his twin in the ribs, making the blond glare at his twin slightly.

"I think they'll do just fine Sasuke." Naruto stated happily. Sasuke nodded in agreement.

Okay, this was the last chapter of Two Hearts One Soul. There's loads of family description in my mini epilogue so that I didn't have to do any explaining when I put up the sequel. I love you readers. See you soon okay? Please read and review. and give me your opinions.

I'd also like to dedicate the characters Itsuki, Hikari, Arashi and Shisui to Broken Sexed Up Bloody Kitten, who gave me the names for these characters.

Oh and just for reference all the girls names in Sakura's family are connected. Just some trivia for the day for you. Each girl's name has something to do with flowers. You also don't need to keep a huge record of all the different characters. That's the idea of this chapter. It's just to show how everyone changed and how the families grew.

At any rate, I'm so thankful to everyone who read, reviewed and added me to their faves and alerts lists. I'm just hugely grateful to everyone who stuck with this story to the end. I hope the sequel doesn't disappoint, if you choose to read it. I also hope that the ending of this story didn't disappoint either. Thank you all, again for sticking with me through this journey. I hope you'll be with me at the sequel.
