It had been a month since Sakura's birthday party and recovery.

Everything had gone back to normal.

She trained every day.
And took care of Naruto.

She had to confess to her secrets
Or else training would stop.

Ibiki was surprised when he found out about the first night at the lake.
During Sakura's confessions, he made an oath to himself to keep her safe.

Shisui on the other hand wouldn't leave her side, for anything. He trained with her, studied with her and practically begun living in her house.

Sakura couldn't blame him.
She knew he was worried.
During the month that past Sasuke turned 5.

Sakura was eating her breakfast as per usual with Shisui watching her like a hawk in case she forgot how to human.

There was knock on the door and Sakura went to open up.

She opened the door and found a box laying on the ground. She picked it up and brought it inside.

Shisui was sitting on the chair next to her eating her sandwich.

She gave him a look and rolled her eyes.

"Wat? Im hagry" he said with a full mouth.

"You literally just ate a pie, 3 chocolate bars and a fruit basket, what the hell you mean when you say you're hungry?" she asked.

"Oi! A boy had got to eat. Anyway what's that?" he asked.

"You wanna eat that too?" Sha asked sarcastically.

"Haha"

"I don't know what it is."she answered.

She grabbed a kunai and proceeded to open the package carefully.

Her eyes widened at what was inside.

On the top of the box there was, written in a weird substance, the word "I know".

"What's wrong?"

She didn't say anything but just proceeded to take out the items that it contained.

It had a picture of her. A picture that her parents possessed.

It also had her furry gree coat that she gave to the boy.

It had a dead flower similar to the one she revived for Ino.

There was something covered in fabric.

She took it out and opened it.

Once she saw what was in she threw it to the ground immediately.

"What's wrong!?" asked shisui concerned.

She didn't say anything.

He got up to look.

Inside was the dead dog belonging to the boy and a hand that belonged to the queen or the queens servant.

'Honestly can't these people let you rest?!'

Sakura didn't reply.

Shisui placed his hand on her shoulder.

"Are you ok?"

"I'm fine. I just feel bad for the boy who owns this dog." she said.

Sakura wasn't affected by this box.
It didn't scare her. She was just curious as to who would send that. She knew it wasn't her parents. They couldn't have known about the dog or the queen. Plus, they wouldn't be able to get to the queen.

Someone else was now after her. She wasn't surprised or shocked.

Danzo was after her, her parents were probably and she was sure that a bunch of other people that have yet to show up out of nowhere were after her powers as well.

"What should we do?" he asked.

"We need to take the dog to its family. I'll take care of the box. Don't tell anyone. For now." she said.

Shisui nodded and took the dog to its family. He knew Sakura wouldn't be strong enough to it. Not yet. Not after everything she's seen.

....................................................
Shisui took the dog back to the boy. He didn't let him see its body. Despite that, the boy knew. He cried. His parents cried.

He apologized and left them alone.

He was concerned for his friends safety and mental health.

She had gone through a lot of things.

From being left by her parents and raising her self alone to killing powerful creatures, under a lake with freezing water.

Sakura never mentioned about going back to Inoichi. Maybe she still did. He didn't know.

Shisui wasn't watching were he was going and bumped into someone.

"Oh! I'm sorry."he said.

It was a boy. He had never seen the boy before.

He had blue hair.

The boy just stared at shisui.

"Hello? Child are you ok?" he asked.

"Where?"

"I'm sorry?"

"Where can i find Sakura haruno?"he asked.

Shisun narrowed his eyes.
....................................................
Did she receive out little gift?

Yes. Although we do have a problem.

And that happened to be?

The boy. The boy knows about everything. He is in the leaf now. He will tell.

Let him. We'll deal with him later. Make sure the girl is safe.

Yes, my lord.

In 2 years from now we'll make out move.We mustn't let this chance slip. The power of the witch will be ours.

Yes, my lord.

Now then. Go spy on that boy she lives with.

Umm my lord. You mean Shisui Uchiha?

No! The boy with the demon inside. He will be of use someday.

Yes my lord.

Naruto was sitting in the park alone whilst Sakura was speaking with someone.

She allowed him to stay but he didn't want to. It was personal.

The person who came to see her was apparently her brother or something.

She didn't look happy meeting him. But it's her choice.

Naruto always felt a pair of eyes on him. That's what he got for being the village's most hated person. People hated him without having a valid reason. He would walk on the street as quiet as possible and someone would still yell at him for being too loud.

This time it was different. He didn't know why. He didn't want to look into it either.

He wanted to keep his life.

He got up and began waking back to Sakura's house. He was extremely grateful for the things she had done for him.

He wanted to start training like her. He wanted to protect her and to be able to stand by her side.

He would be hokage after all. Then the people would finally acknowledge him.
