A few days later, everything was different. 

The war had ended, but the repercussions lingered... for me and Sasuke. I was under arrest, my wrists bound as I stood in the cell, waiting for my fate to be decided. I'd fought for Konoha, yes, but my past crimes and who I was affiliated with isn't helping my cause. 

Sasuke was similarly detained, facing his the same treatment. All I wanted was to see my baby boy.

The sound of footsteps echoed down the hallway, and I strained against the bars, hoping to catch a glimpse of Naruto or at least hear some news. My heart ached for Izana and Naruto, I just want to hold the two of them close to me. Every day I spend without them the more I feel like I'm loosing my mind, especially Izana, I haven't seen him in months... he'd be around four months old..

But they wouldn't let me see Izana—not until they decided what to do with me.

"Misaki," a guard's voice broke through my thoughts, pulling me back to reality. "They're still deliberating. But... you should prepare yourself."

I nodded, swallowing the fear that clutched at my throat. 

All I wanted is to be with my family.

Suddenly I was transported into a formal interrogation room, my eyes meeting with Kakashi's. Kakashi'd shoulders are slumped slightly and he looks tired, more than tired. My eyes trailed down to a stack of paper that he is holding and my heart sinks. 

Fuck.

"Misaki," Kakashi began as he flipps through the papers and he lets out a sigh, throwing the pages onto the desk. "You've committed serious offenses. Mass murder, Attempted genocide, Treason, Fratricide by proxy, Terrorism, Assault and battery, Vigilantism, Psychological abuse, Mutilation, Attempted usurpation, Stalking, Attempted kidnapping and Attempted global dissolution. You've caused harm and put many at risk."

Thanks for being fucking specific about it. 

But I can't even do anything...

I swallowed hard, feeling my pulse drumming in my ears. 

"But," Kakashi continued, and I lift my gaze from the papers. "Your actions during the war, your sacrifice, and your loyalty to your comrades have not gone unnoticed. Naruto and others have spoken on your behalf, highlighting the role you played in saving lives and ending the conflict."

"Therefore, while you will not be held in prison, you will be under strict surveillance," Kakashi stated. "You will remain on probation for two years, under constant watch by Konoha's ANBU. Any misstep and you will face severe consequences."

My breath caught in my throat. Relief flooded my body so suddenly that I felt lightheaded. "I understand," I managed to whisper, a tremble in my voice.

"I also doubt you will be able to cause any harm, considering you don't have any chakra currently, but we can work on trying to regain that," Kakashi's lips turned up ever so slightly in what could almost be considered a smile. "Good. You're dismissed."

As the guards unlatched the cuffs from my wrists and escorted me out. The moment I stepped out of the building, the sunlight hit my face, warm and bright, almost blinding. And then I saw him.

Naruto stood at the foot of the stairs, bandages still wrapped around his arm, well only one of them, he doesn't have his other arm due to the battle with Sasuke but One arm is fine with me. The second our eyes met, he broke into a grin and ran to me, closing the distance between us.
