"Are you serious? Damn it..." Boruto hears the terms of the mission and grunts, not liking it but due to him being a jounin, he doesnt really have a choice.

"I know..." Mitsuki says, not liking it either, but its the cards theyve been dealt. The only way to win is to keep playing. As sarada hears the news, she looks at boruto with a worried look, thinking things are going to get alot rougher from here on out.

A war on two fronts. The Otsutsuki have grown tired of waiting. Theyve opened massive portals on the East and West, far apart from the villages, somewhere in the lands. Thousands of White shinobi as well as Otsutsuki soldiers as their generals coming through. The Allied Shinobi forces has been reformed officially once more. The armies will be forming, boruto will be tasked to the frontline on the East alongside Sasuke, leader of the Assault Contingen, with Darui The Raikage leading two more Defensive contingens and Naruto leading the Assault contingen on the West alongside Kurotsuchi The Tsuchikage doing the same as darui.

The Hidden Cloud, having the most amount of experienced and skilled shinobi in this era, will divide their forces thoroughly. Everyone will be mobilized in the morning. Sarada however, has not gotten her mission yet. Said her father has something to do with it, and so she waits for his arrival.

Meanwhile...Uchiha residence.

"You sure are heavy dattebasa" he carries sarada piggy-back style around the house. Both in their home-wear attire.

"Shut up! Now, to the kitchen!" She points forward.

When they reach, she slides down his body gently. She places a kiss on his cheek and starts getting the materials she needs to make dinner. Boruto walks back to the front door and hangs up his jacket, making himself at home. He comes back to the kitchen and kisses sarada on her temple then walks off to the hall. She smiles while continuing to do her work, feeling at home as well. She thought maybe they could have their last dinner together before everything starts....... Or ends. Both their parents are very busy and will be coming home late. Daisuke and himawari will not engage in the war, just as all shinobi under chuunin rank wont be.

Boruto decides to take a light nap before dinner, he relaxes on the couch and soon dozes off.

"Theyre coming..." He hears

"You have the power.... Use it.... Use it to kill him" a voice in his head so faint whispers like its right next to his ear.

"Hes coming..."

"Boruto... "

"Boruto... Hey! Wake up!" Sarada yells , she stands with two hands on her hips and looking angry.

"Sarada... Wha.." He rubs his eyes and sits up properly

"Youre drooling all over the couch damn it." She says with a small smile, he did look so peaceful and adorable as he slept there. As he regained consciousness he let out a sigh and put a hand through his hair.

She noticed something must be wrong so she crouched down infront of him and crossed both her arms on his right lap, she laid her head there and looked up to him lovingly as she sat on the ground.

"Hey...everything okay?" She asks, her loving look turns into a slightly concerned one when he doesnt repond.

"Come on... Talk to me, you know you can tell me anything..." She pleads cutely again, but he still looks away from her, thinking about his dream, but it wasnt just that. Then he sighs again and takes up the courage to look at her , and when he did, everything just slowly subsided, just looking at her made him feel that everything in the world can just float away as long as he had her. Shes this....precious part of his life that he himself couldnt describe into words. Everytime hed look at her, hed just know. He just knows.
