Today was the final rounds for the exams. Leader-Sama came in yesterday and spoke with the Hokage. I was very early to the last stage, being the first genin. The Jonin in the stands looked a bit surprised and angry, not wanting Ame to look good.

I sat down, and bagan to meditate, restoring my lost chakra from my training. I sat there for almost two hours as the stands began to fill in more, leader-sama taking his seat eith the kages.

Finally we were all here, and the exams started. Sasuke was still late as hell and Naruto just got here in the nick of time. I saw leader-sama wave at me, telling me to come sit with him.

As I walked over, I spotted the others hidden as civilians. I smirked. Finally I made it to the stands and took my seat next to leader-sama watching the fights.

"What are you doing up here?" The third Hokage asked very rudely. I was going to respond but leader-sama spoke up.

"Refrain from speaking to my daughter than way. She is up here because I asked her to be." I froze, my eyes widening. He called me his daughter.

The Hokage also froze and quickly apologized. I ignored him zoning out until my match. I simply jumped down, not seeing the need in stairs. Sai also jumped, a little less graceful.

The proctor told us to start, yet neither of us made the first move. A few boos were heard in the crowd so I began to move. I slowly circled Sai, letting my training take over.

From my body, dozens more of me seemed to come from thin air, following my steps. (Like Killua) Soon I could see a hint of confusion in Sai's eyes as he tried to locate me. He whipped out a scroll and I jumped at him, knocking his ink away. I was very fast, being a blur to all but the Jonin and kages.

Sai couldn't spot me, so I simply hit him in the back of the neck, taking him out. The crowd booed me for being to fast of a match and I rolled my eyes. I wasn't here to please their pathetic asses. I went back up and sat next to leader-sama.

I was still confused on his comment on our relationship, so I sat there silently, feeling the 'kazekage' stare at me. The male was shaking, having known who Leader was. And remembering his power.

"Kaguya I wish to speak to you." I looked up and nodded, following leader-sama. He led me to an empty room and had me sit down. I stared at him in confusion.

"I know you're wondering why I called you my daughter Sakura." I nodded. He sighed.

"Zetsu saw your Rinnegan." I froze, sucking in a sharp breath. "I don't know why you hid it but he told me." I cursed Zetsu in my mind.

"And it makes us family in a way." I looked at him with wide eyes. I didn't expect that. "So I have a question for you. You can say no, and I won't mind as it is very personal."

I thought about the endless things he could say, all of them bad. But what he asked had me sitting there in a stunned silence.

"Will you let me and Konan adopt you?" I sat there stunned. "We have thought about it a lot this last month and agreed to ask you today."

I felt my eyes tear up. I had hated the parents Sakura had originally, but Pein and Konan were already like a family to me. The entire Akatsuki was.

Kisame and Itachi were the protective older brothers, Hidan and Sasori the cool uncles, Tobi and Zetsu the awesome cousins, Kakuzu the amazing grandpa. Deidara was something else, I didn't know yet.

And now the parents, Pein and Konan. I lept at Pein, hugging him tightly. He froze as I started to cry.

"Sure dad." He instantly hugged me back, relief washing over him. I heard the small flitter and saw a smiling Konan wrap her arms around the two of us. "Welcome home my sweet cherry blossom."
