Hidden Uchiha (Itachi's daughter// Naruto Fan-fiction)

Chapter 37 [Silence]

A/N
Hey yall! I know I rarely do A/N's but this one is to inform yall of something. As yall might have guessed, this story is going to be moving into Boruto. BUT the story isn't going to be like the actually Boruto. There aren't going to be fighting with technology and stuff it's all like how Naruto works because it's way too complicated for my small brain. So there is going to be no fighting with technology here. Sorry if you expected something else! Well that's all for now, enjoy the story!

Ikeri POV
Eventually, Naruto became the seventh hokage. Naruto was aiming to build a better village. His decision, causing everyone to be busy. Technology was building up yet it wasn't to be allowed. With technology, ninjas might as well not exist. Thus, it became strict. Technology was only to be developed for entertainment purposes. With all these tasks I had on hand, the case of Kazuo Tomura was thrown at the back of my head.

Sasuke was busy protecting the village from outside too. We haven't discussed about it lately but my instincts tell me Kazuo Tomura isn't gone just like that and he'll be back. And I was pretty accurate.

"Ikeri, we got a note. It's the case back then." Naruto said just as I arrived in his office. Shikamaru helped moved his pile of paper aside, allowing me to take a good look at Naruto's face. He was holding onto a piece of paper, staring at it. I snatched the paper from his hands, reading it myself.

19 July, head to the forest. Do not bring back up. Kazuo will be expecting you.

"It could be a trap for all we know, Ikeri." Naruto said, his face all stern and serious.

"But that's the date of the meeting! He could be planning something on you, having me and Sasuke both away from you." I said, immediately looking up from the paper, looking into Naruto's eyes.

"He could be. But I highly doubt he'll try that. If he's smart, he'll know you'll be able to teleport, having your manipulated selves watching over Naruto in place of you." Shikamaru said, convincing me. It was logical and it would actually work out. Besides, I'm sure I can handle if that happens.

"There's a risk he may attack the meeting if you and Sasuke don't appear." Shikamaru added. I nodded, I've always admired that sharp mind of his. He considers all possibility and takes almost no time at all.

"I'll go. I'll tell Sasuke too." I sighed, making my last decision. Naruto looked at me worriedly.

"It's fine Naruto, me and Sasuke can handle this." I said, giving him a reassuring look before teleporting off.

Knowing Sasuke, he won't be too far off, I'll make it in time even if I only inform him tomorrow.

"Ikeri! Perfect timing! Could you pass this to Sasuke if you're intact with him?" Sakura said, small piece of paper inside a small envelope to me. It was one of her letters again. She had always got me to pass them to Sasuke, since I was the only person being able to get to him personally.

I casually strolled down the streets,

"Ikeri Sis!" I heard a voice of a young little lady calling me. Without looking, I instantly knew who it was, there was only one human in this entire world who'd call me that and that was, Sarada Uchiha.

I turned my back to see her running towards me in her red dress and red glasses. Beside her were Boruto and Mitsuki, they were running alongside with her. Her dress reminded me of Sakura back when she was a genin.

Sarada Uchiha, my cousin. Sakura and Sasuke's child. She's now a genin in a team with Boruto and Mitsuki. Boruto was Naruto and Hinata's child. Naruto and Hinata had another child called Himawari as well.

"Ikeri sis, do you know when papa is returning? I want to let him know I'm a genin!" Sarada rushed over, showing me her forehead protector. Its been like the fifth time she asked me.

"I'm sorry, I don't. I've been busy I haven't got time to visit him yet. He's busy too." I patted her head, looking into her eyes sadly. Her excited face turned disappointed. I looked at her saddened.

"Is that Old man giving you lots of jobs again?!" Boruto yelled, clenching his fist.

"He's your father, besides he's not that old. But there's a meeting soon that's why. It's only expected to have work." I laughed, tucking my hands into my pockets.

"I am meeting him tomorrow, I'll make sure to ask for you. But is there anything else you might want me to help you convey to him?" I said, smiling warmly. Sarada's eyes lit up as she jumpedin joy. It has been a long time since she seen her dad.

"Ikeri! Sorry about these brats, I'll teach them properly! They ran off." Konohamaru came running, punching Sarada, Boruto and Mitsuki in the head.

"You better." I smirked, heading off, causing Konohamaru to sweet drop. I laughed at his reactions. He's always nervous, I have no idea why, I'm not that scary am I? At least I don't think I am.

'Perhaps I'll join Sasuke earlier, I don't have much a hand anyways.' I thought, telporting off to his location.

"From Sakura." I said, handing a letter to Sasuke as we activated our mangekyou before deactivating them. I honestly don't know why we still do it. I guess it's just like greeting each other for us. The trees swayed from right to left then left to right, leaves falling off if the tree as it made rattling sounds. Sasuke stood, reading the letter calmly as the wind blew against his face. He had to grip onto it tightly, ensuring it wouldn't fly off.

"Why are you here?" He said, glancing up from the letter tucking it into his pocket. I raised an eyebrow, smirking.

"Sarada's a genin now, have you heard? She wants to tell you herself, go home after this." I said softly.

He returned me with a sad smile before getting serious again. "What's the 'this' I have to do?"

"You're as sharp as ever, Kazuo Tomura. Tomorrow, at the forest."

"It's your birthday tomorrow..." He mumbled under his breath, catching my attention.

"You can't choose the days of when fights will occur. If it just happens to be on my birthday then so be it. Not that it's a day to celebrate either..." I said, trailing off. It was the day mom died, the day papa lost his lover. How can that day ever be a day of celebration?

He sighed as we stopped by a waterfall. It's light blue coloured water splashed onto the small lake, some splashing onto the green grass patch. He took a seat in front of it, staring into the lake. I sat down beside him. It was complete silence for the whole time. The sun slowly set, the sky was purple-pink, it was a nice scenery honestly. Slowly, the sky turned darker as the stars get brighter.

'There were only a few stars in his dark sky, yet I was one of them...'
