May you be blessed by the moon and DRINK LOTS OF MILK!

Pein's POV:

I lift my youngest carefully into my arms as to not wake him. Everyone looked sullenly at Blade.

"He's going to be okay? Isn't he?" asked D.

I looked down at Blade's sleeping face, he looked so peaceful, "I don't know but I do know that I will protect him at any risk. I hope you, my sons, will too."

"Of course! We'll always protect our youngest brother!" yelled Blood. I smiled at our messed up little family of assassins.

"Good." was all I said. I started up the stairs to put Blade in his bed. I reached his door and gently placed him on his bed. I took of his boots and lifted the black comforter to his shoulders. I kissed his forehead, "I'll protect you my son." I left his room, turning the light off in the process, and shut his door. I sigh and headed off to my office. We will need some help with this problem and I know exactly who to call. The Reapers.

Naruto's POV:

Dream:

I was six again. Playing in the nearby forest with my brother Akito. We were laughing and just enjoying the last time we had of being normal innocent kids. Soon it will be time for our training to become assassins like our brothers and father.

"Aki! Wait up!" I would say through my laughter. Akito was running ahead, he looked back and laugh at me.

"You're to slow, Naru!" He ran faster, leaving me behind.

"Wait!" I called out. I tripped on a root, causing me to tumble down hard onto the cold forest floor. "Ouch!" I cried out. I had fallen on a sharp branch, which pierced through my leg.

"NARUTO!" Akito was instantly by my side. I clung onto his shirt. No words could come out of my mouth, I was sobbing to hard. "Hold on, Naru. I'll heal you." Akito grasped the branch and pulled it out in one motion with no warning.

"AHHHHHH!" I cried out in extreme pain. Akito kept whispering soothing words as he placed his hand over my wound.

It took a few minutes but Akito finally said, "There, are you okay now?" I looked down at my leg, the wound was completely gone, no trace was found not even blood. I nodded weakly and leaned onto his chest.

"Promise me you would always be there?" I whispered to him.

Akito giggled and replied with, "Always." He kissed my forehead as I giggled. I held out my pinkie finger which he gladly hook with his own.

"Forever." We both said in unison before smiling at each other and laughing.

End of Dream:

I shot up in bed covered in cold sweat. "Not again," I rubbed my bed as I lifted the blanket off me and sat on the edge, "Why must that dream haunt me?" I looked at a photo on my bedside table. It was of me and Akito when we were six, yet I scratched out Akito's face.

"Why?" I whispered to his picture as if he could hear me, "Why did you become like that?" For a few minutes, I stared at the picture then sighed. "I better get to Sasuke's." I looked at the time - 11:53....Shoot!

I rushed to put my boots on and run to the window, opening it easily. I didn't waste any time, I jumped out the window. I landed gracefully on my feet and dashed down the street. Did I mention my room was on the fourth floor? *laughs nervously*

Sasuke's POV:

I was waiting on my bed reading some random book. My window was open and a soft cold breeze blew the dark purple curtain gracefully in the air.

I sighed and looked out the window, "Where are you, Naruto?" I waited as if he'll answer me but silence was all I heard. I returned to my book with one last thought, "When did I tell Naruto where I lived?"
