....................................................................................................................................................................................................................ITS MY BIRTHDAY!!! *bows dramatically* thank you thank you i have lived another year. i think i deserve a reward. Hahaha anyway enjoy the chapter its not much but its something.

Once our shogi game concluded and the tension in the room had lessened, not disappeared but it wasn't so intense anymore, the Hokage began asking me more about what had happened to me in Snake eyes lair.

I made sure to tell him everything. Not leaving a detail out of place. From what it looks like to smell and how heavy the doors are, the amount of echo that vibrates off the walls and even the type of monsters that spawned from any fails experiments.

"My my, quite the memory you have dear." Old man Hokage said.

I felt the air shift around Danzo, I assume he was nodding. "Indeed, there are many Jonin who fail to report in with such detail. "

My father remained silent, still a bit unsettled by the presence of the powerful man in his living room. "Its more the fact I spent almost 3 years in that cage." I spoke up seeing nothing wrong with how comfortable I was around these people. After all they seem sensible enough. (She's little  she can't tell how dangerous Danzo really is)

It was during all of this that mom came out into the room "Yoshi darling why don't you run upstairs and get dressed" she smiled kinda tense though I payed no attention to why "you have cooking lessons with the Akamichi soon and you are not leaving this house in your pajamas."

I groaned, not wanting to get the dressed, because that includes brushing my hair and teeth, navigating the way to the Akamichi compound, and before any of that I would have to walk up the stairs to get to my room and change. "Just a few more minutes mom" I whined.

Her hands flew to her hips as her expression sterned " if I give you any more time it will never get done, now up you get young lady. I'll be up in a minute to do your hair."

"Yes ma'am" I sighed as I was pushed up by dad ("best not make your mother angry ") and so I trudged my way upstairs.

It didn't take long to get ready, actually getting up the stairs without falling and embarrassing myself infront of the Hokage was what took the most time.

I had just sat down on my bed to pull on my ninja saddles when the door creaked open. "Hi mom" I smiled in her general direction.

I felt the bed beside me sink and she placed her hands on my shoulders and guided me face the wall so she could pull the brush through my hair. As she did so we continued a constant conversation.  Ever sense I came back she brushes my hair everyday, not because I can't, but to give me an opportunity to ask questions about anything and everything. From proper table manners to what I missed out on when I was away, and even old inside jokes that come up quite often and I wouldn't understand otherwise.

But today something had been bothering me. With the powerful men sitting around in one of the rooms downstairs, it really drove home the fact that I was missing, gone, kidnapped, years of my life stolen,  and I didn't know why nor by whom. And so I asked.

After my mother told me all about how father denied my engagement to a young boy named Tyson Monachi and about the boys father, Trent I believe,  raging about it resulting in my kidnapping. How I was handed off to a stranger in a cloak because he had no former layed planes and panicked. Though mom seemed be avoid telling me exactly why the engagement was denied, I desided to ask questions when the story had come to a close.

"Umm.." I hesitated thinking of one of my many questions "what.. uhh... what happened to Mr. Monachi ?"

The elder Nara female sighed. "After being interrogated to the fullest extent, physical force, starvation,  and many other thing you don't need to hear; Trent Monachi was slotted for execution if you were not found within the year. Your father made sure of that!" her head shook "if I hadn't talked your father down and convinced him away from the sight he would have done so himself."

"So he is dead?" I felt my mother nod "then, um what happened to his son?"

"Tyson " my mother began "was an inosent young child who is currently being raised by his uncle and aunt until he is old enough to take his place as clan head of the Monachi "

I sighed,  glad he was bit effected by his fathers rash actions and spoke my other question "hey mom, why exactly DID daddy turn down my engagement to Tyson? "

I felt her chakra shudder nervously and her face heat up "oh look at the time! We must get going just because your a Nara doesn't give you the right to be late. Mrs. Akamichi will be worried if we take much longer." She quickly shoo'ed me down the stairs with further answering my questions.                    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3rd POV

after Yoshino had left to make her way upstairs to join her daughter the three men (or two men and a slimy *insert X amount of words here*) adjusted to the new, female less atmosphere. finally the silence and tea sipping came to a halt.

"aww yes well i believe i must be going," Hiruzen Sarutobi stood and stretched his old back, "much work to do and paperwork to sort out, Naruto has probably been in his fair share of trouble by now.  thank you for the tea Shikaku."

nodding the Nara stood up to escort his guest out "of course come back anytime, I'm sure yoshi would enjoy another game of shogi. " looking over to his other guest he raised an eyebrow at the one eyed old man on his couch. whom had yet to stand.

seeing this the head of Root explained, "yes ill be leaving here soon as well, however there are a few things i wish to discuss with you first shikaku." 

nodding a bit uneasy the head of house led Lord Hokage down the hall and out side. waving and exchanging goodbyes, the Hokage excepting an offer to that game of shoji, the two went their separate ways. one towards the Hokage tower, the other back into his home where one of the most powerful elders in the village sat. 

OH NO WHAT HAVE I DONE!!!!!!! im such a horrible author. i dont even know how i could do this, leaving Shikaku to speak with Danzo! what could happen next?
