Chapter 5: Recovering
Sasuke was certain that his punishment was more than enough. The D-rank missions almost killed him courtesy of the genins' 'favorite' cat, Tora. He swore if that damned cat will find a way to escape his dreaded owner again, he would chidori its ass to hell. Possibly, the cat will thank him... or worship him.
He sighed. It has more than enough damage that his poor pride was hurt when that stupid cat chose to lead the chase in the busiest part of Konoha, the market making him look like a clown. Pride hurt, face and limbs badly scratched (much to his fan girls' chagrin)
He pledged that if more misfortune will come to his way, he will definitely kill a certain dobe who brought him back inside the walls of the Fire Country.

Definitely, the gods weren't quite fond of Sasuke. (In short, they hate him) To see the certain dobe in front of the Uchiha Compound with luggage and boxes is like saying hello to Shinigami.
"Yo, teme!!" the dobe said enthusiastically matched with his ever playful grin.
"What the hell are you doing here?" the teme asked although having a quick grasp of what the hell is happening.
"Tsunade-baa-chan said that I'm gonna live here. We'll be together now forever!!" he yelled.
We'll be together now forever!! We'll be together now forever!! We'll be together now forever!! Sasuke was frozen. Mind out cold. Migraine now forming. He could hear the echoes... Forever with the dobe? What kind of harsh punishment was he having? He remembered his pledge; might execute it now.
"Korosu," Sasuke whisphered. (Korosu means kill)
"Oro?"
"KOROSU!!!!!!!" Sharingan activated. Chidori now forming.
"Gyaah!! W-wait! T-time out, teme!! If you kill me, I'm not going to treat you ramen!!" Naruto threatened while running for his life. 'What a moron,' Sasuke thought. 'That method will only catch you.' Then all hell broke loose.
Oh indeed, Sasuke needs a diversion from his stress and luckily, he found his toy for the moment.

Sakura was stressed. Hospital duty today took too much toll on her. Not to mention the strain that the weasel (Itachi means weasel) did on her chakra reserve while healing his eyes. Beyond doubt today was a tiring day. She thought that returning to her humble abode would soothe her aching back... how wrong she was.
She had forgotten the most important task at her hand for the moment........ babysitting a certain idiotic Uchiha.
She sighed knowing that the younger Uchiha can be as stubborn as her favorite knucklehead blonde. She giggled. Those two are really much the same.
So much for thoughts, she must do her task or her shishou will have her head. She headed towards the Uchiha Compound... ready to face hell.
What she saw was really hell.
"NARUTO, UCHIHA!!! GET YOUR ASS IN HERE!!!!" she shrieked stopping the two ninjas at brawl. As expected, both ninjas followed; Naruto being afraid of his adoptive sister and Sasuke afraid to face the wrath of her probation officer.
--
"You two can really be pain in the ass," the rosette reprimanded. "Can't you two stop killing each other even for a minute?" The medic nin groaned making the two culprit guilty. The girl almost passed out due to chakra exhaustion while healing their injuries.
"Anyway Uchiha, you have heard that I'm going to beyour probation officer so shall not leave my side except for you *snort* D-rank missions. It will be your responsibility to look for me. Anyways, finding me will be so effortless since I'm always in the Konoha Hospital"
"Hn"
"Can you stop talking like a friggin' baby?!"
Naruto sniggered. "Who's the baby now, teme?" Naruto whispered. Sasuke growled.
"What the hell are you two blabbing about?" Sakura yelled while using Iruka's big-head no jutsu. (She had learned it especially for scolding Naruto)
"N-n-nothing"

Itachi was in high spirits today. The dinner held in the Uchiha house was very lively with the blonde and pink head. Both are staying temporarily at the Uchiha Compound to supervise his foolish outoto (little brother). He had never had a dinner like this for who knows how long. Laughs reverberate inside the usually still compound.
'Sasuke is a faithful person. He got good friends,' he thought while looking at the only living blood mate. The latter noticed and smirked at him. Hm, looks like he's recuperating.
