Crimson cherry bloosm

Chapter 27

"Ts- Tsunade-s-sama!"

Tsunade looked up as a crying Sakura ran into the office.

"Sakura!? What happened!" She wrapped her arms around her student to comfort her as the tears kept streaming down her cheeks.

"M- M- Mikoto-chan- She's- She's gone- Th- They took her-"

"What!?"

Tsunade immediately let Sakura go. "When did this happen?"

"A- A while a- ago... Th- They must be- be already gone..."

"Damn... Then it's too late to send shinobi after them..."

Silence, except for Sakura, sobbing.

"Sakura, please go home, talk with Sasuke, or Ino." Tsunade took both Sakura's shoulders and looked at her. "I need to talk about this with the others."

Sakura nodded and slowly left. Tsunade watched her leave.

Sir Leader looked up from some documents when someone knocked on his door.

"Enter."

The group he had send to Sakura came in. So; Itachi, Kisame, Deidara, Tobi, and Hidan. Itachi carried something small.

"That's the girl?" Leader asked curious, looking at Itachi. Itachi nodded as he walked closer, showing Leader his daughter. His red eyes trailed over the small, sleeping baby.

"Who will take care of her these two weeks?" He asked then.

"I will." Itachi replied. Leader could hear the sarcasm in his voice, as if he wanted to add a 'duh' to his sentence. He snickered.

"Not so offended, Itachi-san." He said. "You aren't the mother-type."

"Deidara is." Said Kisame with a big grin.

"I swear you, if you'll say something like that again, I'll blow you up, yeah."

"Oh yeah? I'd like to see you try, girl!"

"No problem, fish stick, yeah!"

"Gentlemen!" Leader spoke, making the two others shut up. "Thank you. Now, just don't make me be annoyed of her cries so I can do my work, okay? The rest doesn't bother. She will be the best Akatsuki ever when growing up, so take good care, alright?"

"Hai." Said Kisame, Deidara and Tobi in unison. Itachi and Hidan just nodded.

"Now get out."

Itachi held his girl close as he walked out of the office, following the others. He listened to their conversation about having children for their own as they went towards the cafeteria.

"I'll never have children." Said Hidan, proud by his words. "If I would ever have a girlfriend, and she would be pregnant, I'd leave her."

"That's so cruel, yeah!" Said Deidara shocked while gasping. "If my girlfriend would be pregnant, I couldn't be happier, yeah!"

"I don't know, I'd probably be happy or something." Kisame said slowly, a little scared of the subject.

"Tobi is a good boy!" Said Tobi happily. The other three sweat dropped.

Itachi looked back at his girl again. They couldn't know how they would react. He had reacted way different then he thought he would. Although he never expected to have any kids at all.

"Hey, Itachi, are you still coming or are your eyes glued to that girl of yours?"

Itachi looked up. Kisame stared at his teammate.
