It didn't take that long for the trio consisting of Yuka, Ryo and Hikari to find their way to Konoha. The village hidden in the leaves. They didn't have much difficulty while travelling, no fighting, no nothing. Although relieved that they weren't ambushed, Hikari was slightly disappointed about the lack of action they had on their travel. She thought it to be quit boring, frankly her brothers were very happy about that. They couldn't bare the thought that something might happen to their sister and her unborn child. Not to mention that Kakashi would kill them if something were to happen to Hikari and her unborn child, that he has no knowledge about at the moment, but he would certainly kill them if he knew. To say that Ryo and Yuka were stressed out was an understatement, but they knew that once Hikari had something in mind.... There was no stopping her. So, here they are. The three of them. Safely at the gates of Konoha. 

Getting in would be easy enough since the two gatekeepers were sleeping on the job. But being as polite as they are, Ryo woke them up. It also had something to do with the fact that they don't know anything around here and wouldn't know where Kakashi lived and it was just a lot more convenient for them to wake the guards up. Ryo nudged the one with the spiky hair. "Huh" the guard said sleepily and stares at the three. "State your names and business" he says "My name is Hikari Chisaka and these are my brothers Ryo and Yuka. I'm here to see my husband Kakashi Hatake." Hikari states, removing the hood from her head.  "Izumo, wake up!" the other guard said, nudging his companion to wake up. "Huh?" 'Izumo' asked sleepily "Take these three to the Hokage's office" the other one says "Hai" 'Izumo says and leads the way.

Izumo knocks on the door to, what they presumed, was the Hokage's office. "Come in" could be heard from inside and Izumo opens the doors for the trio. "What can I help you with?" the old man behind the desk asked "We're looking for Kakashi Hatake" Ryo says "And who are you?" the Hokage asked "I'm Ryo, this is Yuka we're his brothers in law and that is our little sister, his wife Hikari" he says pointing to each one of them. "Did he know you were coming?" the Hokage asked. The brothers looked over at their sister who just sheepishly smiles at them, turning beet red. "No because someone..." Ryo started glaring at his younger sister "was in a hurry to get here." he finished "We're just here to make sure she got here safely" Yuka says "Go get Kakashi" he says to one of the men that we're by his door, they bowed and off they went.

Not too much later there was a knock at the door. "Come in" the Hokage said "You sent for me lord Third?" Kakashi asked in a bored tone, he has yet to notice the other people in the room. The Hokage motions towards us and only now Kakashi noticed them. His visible eye widened as he recognized to trio. "What are you guys doing here?" he asked  no one in particular "Ask your wife" Yuka counters. Kakashi looked at her. "I wanted to see you" she says, her brothers gave her a look. "I also have some news.... but maybe we should be somewhere more private for that" Kakashi nodded and looked at the Hokage. "That was all" the Hokage tells him. Kakashi leaves the Hokage's office with the trio trailing behind him.

Kakashi leads them to his apartment and opens the door. They all step inside. "So... What did you want to tell me?" Kakashi asks looking at his wife. "I'm pregnant" she tells him. Kakashi couldn't comprehend the words at first. "What?" he asks "We're having a baby" Hikari says, placing Kakashi's hand on the small baby bump. "We're having a baby?" Kakashi asks, still not being able to believe it. She nods, a smile adorning her features "We're having a baby!" he exclaims excitedly and kisses his wife on her lips. "Ewwww, get a room already!" Yuka exlaims dramatically. Hikari kisses Kakashi again just to pester him. "Well, congratulations." Ryo says patting Kakashi on the back "And enjoy your sleep while you still can" he adds with a laugh. Kakashi was beyond happy that he was going to be a father. "Are you moving to the Konoha?" he asked her hopefully. It would make things a lot easier if she did and he would be able spend any time he had with her and the baby. "Not yet" she replies "This baby will be an Elementalist, so for the first years of his life it's safer for him and for Konoha and its villagers that he stays within the illusion." she explains "He?" he asks "Or she" she adds with a laugh.
