"Kashi-nii,Everything will be explained. For now, we need Naru's mask and then you can meet us in the Hokage tower." Hinata said as she and her boyfriend popped next to the white haired man.

"Alright,I'll meet you there." Kakashi agreed grudgingly then handed the black mask to Hinata as he said to no one in particular and then disappeared in his signature puff of smoke.

"Let's head to the tower," Sarutobi told the older ninjas as the two Reapers disappeared in their respective shunshins.

(With Naru)

"Naru?" Sasuke called out as he and Hinata were at Kakashi's apartment looking for the blonde.

"I'm in the bedroom," Naru's subdued voice had them worried.

"Are you alright?" Hinata asked as she approached the girl sitting on the bed watching the three children sleeping.

"I'm just... tired," Naru replied, brushing an unruly brown lock from Kankuro's sweaty forehead as the Sabaku siblings had fallen asleep together with the oldest in the middle while Hinata sat beside her, watching her face, waiting for her to explain why she was so down.

"I know but the day isn't over and we have a lot more explaining to do," Sasuke rubbed the blonde's shoulders in an effort to relax her.

"What if he doesn't really mean what he said?" Naru asked after a moment of silence. The couple now understood her somber mood. She feared Kakashi's reaction about the children.

"I mean... I know he did say that he would take them in for my sake but what if he changes his mind or he really didn't want to do it in the first place or he just-" Hinata cut her off.

"Naruto, listen to yourself!You're rambling. You know that he meant what he said. Kakashi is not one to joke about serious matters like this." the dark haired girl's voice was gentle yet stern.

"What if he decides that he doesn't even want me anymore when he finds out what happened to me? I couldn't... I can't bear it if he suddenly decides he -" unshed tears shone in the corners of her eyes as she hung her head not wanting them to see her when she was vulnerable.

"Naru, loo at me Naruto.Listen to me, you know Kakashi's not like that. He loves you and you love him so what's the matter?" Sasuke began as he moved to kneel in front of her as then he he pulled her chin up so that he can look her in the eyes.

"I'm not the same Naru he knows," she replied.

"You are,You're still the hyper blonde he knows and loves. You've just gotten older, matured physically but nothing had actually changed." Hinata explain.

"I'm scared."

"We know that,But you know you'll always have us behind you. Besides, you had to tell him the truth sometime."" Sasuke embraced his younger sister.

"I know, but I'm still scared-" anything else she wanted to say was cut off when the building started to shake as the three turned in unison toward the window to see a massive mushroom cloud rise from one of the training grounds.

"You've got to calm him down,You need to calm him down before he destroys the whole village." Sasuke urged the blonde hiding her face in his chest.

"But -"

"No buts,Go to him, tell him everything he needs to know. He'll understand." Hinata once more cut in.

"Look after the kids?" Naru ask resignedly.

"Of course,Now go" the pupil-less girl replied, Naru left in the signature leaf shunshin.
