I'm back with the story I promised!

I don't own Naruto! Only the children!

Read and Enjoy!

I was close. Close to the place I once had called home. Jūgo, Suigetsu, and Karin came along on their own free will. We stood in front of the gates. The ninjas on watch were too stunned to do anything. We dropped our weapons in front of them and kept walking.

One of the gate watchers started to follow us.

The village people scurried away to their homes. Whispering, pointing and dragging their children with them. We were nearing the market stands.

I heard some giggling coming closer. Two or three youngsters where running at top speed heading our way.

"We're gonna win!" yelled a girl

Two girls were laughing as they ran. They jumped up high but did not seem they jumped high enough. One used Karin's shoulder blades to jump higher and forward. The youngest used my head. I reached out and grabbed the youngest leg.

"Hey mr. let go"

I had the youngest upside down. I could tell with one look that this girl was irritating. She blinked down at me, then looked at her self. Her dress went down revealing her undergarment.

"Pervert!" she yelled

I saw the other one come and place her hand on top of mine; "Let her go...please"

I glared. She flinch for half a second she took four steps back and made hand signs. She looked straight in the eyes. Lifted her right hand, my right hand followed suit. I held it still, the girl used her left hand to prop her right. Her right hand opened up, mine did the same making me release the girl.

The girls jumped a good distance away from us. It surprised me that this girl managed to manipulate my hands. She must be from a powerful clan. The thought soon left me as i got a closer look at them.

They looked familiar, far too familiar. They looked like Sakura and the damn dobe. Had they gotten married to each other and had kids?

"Nee-chan, are you okies?"

"Hai" said the oldest holding her head

"Why you little brats…How dare you touch my Sasuke-kun" yelled Karin

"What did you call us, you old hag?" asked the youngest

"Argh! That's it!" screamed Karin

Karin moved toward the girls. She only took three steps before a black panther appeared two feet away from her. It growled at her and it was ready to pounce if Karin made any sign of walking toward the girls.

"Karin, step back"

Karin moved back slowly until she was standing next to Suigetsu. Because of Karin's outburst we had more ninjas watching us.

"What's with all the racking?" said a boy who resembled Shikamaru

"Shikako-nii-chan that guy is a pervert and the hag yelled at us" said the blond little girl

The black panther was still ready to pounce. I got a better look at the kids. The little blond girl with blue eyes was definitely the dobe's. The boy named Shikako was Shikamaru's by the style and eyes. But the other girl caught my full attention. She had raspberry hair with dark shade of green eyes.

I turned to the boy when he moved in a defense position. He must have realized who I was. He placed the pink head and blond behind him. The pink head seemed attentive; she stuck her head to the side and peered at us.

"Natsumi-chan, have you seen them before?"

"Nope Sakuya-nee-chan"

"They aren't from here; be on alert" said Shikako

The kids where talking amongst themselves. They went into defense position as well. It surprised me that after a few seconds the boy put away his kunai and stood up. The pink head and blond followed his actions.

I saw them looking up at the building next to them. There she was, standing in all her glory and pride…Sakura.
