Chapter 1

3rd Person POV

New Family

As soon as Minato had told them of a child in need of adoption that was a part of a peace treaty, Kizashi and Mebuki Haruno wasted no time in rushing to the office to see the little bundle of joy. The only thing is when they got to the hospital, it was anything but joyful.

The little baby with the short pink locks was wailing in Jiraiya's arms, whom had an expression of absolute horror on his face that would send anyone into a fit of hysterics.

The same Jiraiya, who had fought in the war and had seen many battles and deaths and had even stared death in the face, was brought to his knees by his own students child.

"You're holding her wrong Jiraiya! Give her to me!" Tsunade yelled as she took Sakura into her own arms and began to shush her, but she only seemed to cry harder.

The Haruno's had walked over to the Fourth Hokage who was looking at his sensei with a sweat drop on his forehead but an equally noticeable worried crease between his eyebrows.

"Is that her Minato?" Minato had neutralized his expression in an instant and snapped his head towards his long time friend and rival candidate. "Is the poor child alright?"

Mebuki, even though it was yet to officially be her child, looked like a worried mother hen and was inching her way towards Sakura.

"I'm sure Sakura just misses her mother. She isn't used to the people around her, give her some time to get used to the new place and I'm sure she'll be just fine." Minato said as he and Kizashi watched as Tsunade handed Sakura over to Mebuki.

It was almost like a switch had been turned off and Sakura had stopped crying. The only thing coming out of her mouth now we're small whimpers as she looked at Mebuki with her sparkling emerald green eyes.

Mebuki looked at the baby with awe. "Look at her Kizashi." Mebuki said with a whisper, not wanting to frighten the girl with anymore loud noises. Moving away from Minato's side Kizashi looked at the little girl and smiled.

"She's beautiful." He said just as softly.

Minato looked at the pair with the baby and couldn't help but say, "She almost looks like she could actually be yours." Honestly, the resemblance was uncanny.

Both looked at Minato. "You think so? Is that what we should go with then? That she's ours?"

"You could. But you'd need to make the story sound more believable."

"Well, we did just come back from a six month long mission from being a spy in Iwa, we could say that I was pregnant before that, I just didn't know." Mebuki suggested as she slowly rocked Sakura to sleep.

"That could work. No one from Konoha has seen you have they?" Mebuki took a minute to think before clicking her tongue.

"The Uchiha's, Mikoto and Fugaku, they dropped off some updated information from the war outside the walls. They came about a month ago."

"That's fine then." Tsunade said as she walked closer to the group. "You would have already given birth by then considering Sakura is about three and a half months old, or somewhere around there."

"Sakura was born the 28th of March. We're in the beginning of July so more like three months and a week." Minato said, adding in his two cents.

"Well that settles part of it. What if they ask how you didn't know? Because when you think about it, you'd have to have been at least five to six months pregnant before you had left on your mission, you should have been showing by then." Jiraiya said, coming up to stand beside Tsunade.
