Yukino grew up in the Leaf Village, alongside Iruka and others like him. While he and a few from her class grew up to become Teachers she grew up to become a fine Shinobi and took off to train under Jiraiya for five years and was sent on a dangerous mission that took her six years to finish. When she left, she left a timid young woman who was afraid of almost everything but when she returned it was hard to believe she was the same young woman from before. Iruka had admired Yukino from afar, too shy around her to even become her friend. He seen she was timid too but also knew she was strong, stronger than anyone else he knew maybe. When Yukino returns to the Leaf will she be able to adjust to a normal life there after being gone for so long? Will Iruka recognize her?
