The house was empty, not holding a single piece of furniture. The little girl stares at the empty pit of nothingness. Empty, just empty. "Mama! Papa!" She shouts, as her words echo throughout the entire house. The sun was barely rising, as she huffs, soon sitting on the ground, covering her face as Konan rushes in and picks her up. "Oh I'm sorry, mommy went out to get something. Anyways, your papa is busy, and I'll be busy too, so I'm going to take you to the Uchiha Province to let you settle in." She smiles warmly at the pinkie as she then walks out of their house, making it deserted.

"Where's Naruto?" Sakura asks, as Konan continues to walk through Konoha. "He has to be with Auntie Narugisa, Uncle Nagato and your dad both are busy." Konan tells her as Sakura sighs, Konan taking her to a new route in which she has never been through. The gates were closed, having black being the main color and in the middle was a white circle with a square line coming out of the bottom, a bloody red fills one fourth of the circle. "What's that?" Sakura asks, as Konan smiles.

"This is where mommy grew up," Konan explains as she pushes the gates open and walks inside, seeing the quiet mysterious Uchihas at work, and Konan inhales the fresh scent of flowers blooming. "Wow, it's just like I remember it to be!" Konan places Sakura down to get a good look around. The Uchihalings were mostly sparring instead of playing, and as Sakura looked around, the houses were neat and perfect. They were all either bluenettes or brunettes. This is why I'm not Uchiha...all their hair is dark and their eyes are black...the only exception being mama...

"Konan!"

A sweet voice chimes out, as Konan looks at the lovely figure standing, wearing a purple dress, black hair down and a smile crept on her face. "Mikoto!" The two embrace, before Mikoto slowly looks down at Sakura with a gentle smile. "Oh! This must be your daughter, Sakura!" Mikoto bends down a little bit and pokes Sakura's forehead. She blinks, remembering of Itachi. Sakura immediately loved the aura of Mikoto. Konan nods, smiling. "Well, I have to go now," Konan kisses her daughter's cheek before hugging her tightly. "Be a good girl, okay? I will be back, I promise." Konan says as Sakura watches her beloved mother go.

"Well, Sakura." Mikoto speaks up, as Sakura's emerald eyes shift over to her. "We can go inside the house, my sons are sleeping, but I'll make breakfast!" Mikoto declares as the shy Sakura nods, stepping inside the unfamiliar house. She looks around, trying to make herself feel at home, though the whole idea of living in the Uchiha territory didn't quite fill her mind with happy thoughts. I'm Haruno. Haruno. Haruno. Not Uchiha. Never will be. The footsteps of another were heard, as he straps comfortable cotton black wristbands on his wrists.

"I'm off to the police station." He mutters, as he looks at his wife, then sees something pink pop out, whatever it was, it was hiding behind her leg. He forces a small smile as he looks at his wife. "Is this Konan's daughter?" He asks, as Mikoto nods. "Yes, she's Sakura Uchiha." Mikoto adds as Sakura mumbles, "Haruno." The dark brown haired man blinks. "I see then. I'll be off, sorry if you won't get to see much. But if you're still around by dinner, Sakura, I'll be able to be here with you, so you can get to know me."

Sakura slightly nods, as he takes off. Mikoto takes out the eggs out of the fridge. "I'm sorry if my husband was intimidating and scary, he's not the expressive type." She explains before placing the eggs down on the table. Sakura twiddles her fingers, stepping around, before looking at things that laid on the floor, one catching her attention the most. It was a green dinosaur with a big smile on it's face. She holds it as Mikoto smiles. "You can feel free to play with that." She giggles lightly as Sakura sits on the stool by Mikoto and grabs both hands of the dinosaur and makes it dance.

"Mom, I'm going to train with Shisui." The clinking of metal was heard as Sakura looked up, seeing the familiar boy from before, and it hit her. "Itachi!" She smiles, as he blinks before smiling. "Hey, what are you doing here?" He asks, before poking her forehead. "She's the daughter of my best friend. I'm taking care of her while her mother is busy." The mother explains. "Oh? Is that so? Does that mean we'll see her more often?" Itachi asks, as Mikoto nods her head in confirmation.

Itachi gives a soft smile to Sakura as he then heads for the front door. "I'll see you later," he tells her before turning to his mom. "Goodbye mother, I'll be home soon!" Itachi declares before taking off. Sakura plops herself back down onto the tiny chair as she then holds the green dinosaur within her grasp as Mikoto waves goodbye to Itachi. The air is filled with silence, as Mikoto speaks up. "So, Sakura. I've seen you've met Itachi, but have you met--"

"THAT'S MY DINOSAUR!!!"

Sakura and Mikoto wince as a small boy with black spiky hair and lustrous mysterious black onyx glare at Sakura.

"Sasuke." His mother speaks up, a bit firm as a fair warning. "Who's that!" Sasuke points a stubby finger at Sakura as she wants to growl, but instead hugs the dinosaur. "Sasuke, remember our talk about guests? Well this is my best friend's daughter, Sakura, she's an Uchiha, just like you." Mikoto adds as Sasuke grunts. "I don't think so! Her eyes are green, not black! And and and and her eyes don't have sharingan!"

"Sasuke, her eyes are unique, they don't need to be black. Anyways, why don't you two play?"

Play, these two...
