Last chapter:

Sasuke P.O.V.

 

He had come to ask the Hokage for some days off and to tell her about the strange guy he had seen walking around town.

 

When he reached to knock, he heard some one sobbing on the other side of the door. He was deciding whether or not to leave, when he heard a familiar voice.

 

“The reason I left five years ago w-was because…”

 

His eyes widen with recognition `Naruto?!' He was about to scream his name but felt into silence since he wanted to know why the person that he cared about left.

 

He lean in and put his ear against the door. What he heard in the course of that hour left him in a state of shock.

 

An hour later…

 

`Oh God I was there'

 

 

Chapter 4: Taking Action

 

Narrator P.O.V

 

Night time had come to Konoha just a few hours ago. Shops were still open but getting ready for closing. People were still out attending to their last tasks before going home. In the distance, at the end of the road where there was a last building before you encounter the walls of the city there was an alley occupied by four men in a deep secretive conversation. There was a cold feeling that suddenly swept the streets making the night seem darker than usual.

 

“Kohi-san I swear that man was him! While I was coming back from my last mission I saw him Henge in the distance before he encountered the ANBU.” the subordinate was scared and it could be heard in his voice has he whisper desperately. “We saw him in town today and followed him but lost track what will we do?”

 

A man with a scarred cheek looked at his comrade with disgust. “So what if it was him? Are u scared of the demon?” He laughs at the man and continues. “There is no need to worry is there Asayu-san?

 

In the center of the group a man with brown hair lifted his view toward his subordinates. With an evil smile on his face he responded with a small cackle.

 

“The Demon knows his place plus my last words should have scarred his courage deeply. He did leave…to bad not forever.” His last words were said with a hint of anger. “All we need to do is remind him of the lesson we taught him don't you agree?”

 

The men nodded at this in agreement.

 

“Then it's settled.”

 

With that the four shinobi dissipated from the area with their plans set. All of them were thinking the same thing.

 

`This time we will succeed in breaking him'

 

 

Tsunade P.O.V

 

She was mad..no she was beyond mad. Someone from her ranks had done this atrocity and she didn't know who but she was going to find out. `And when I do they will pay'

 

Naruto was still sleeping in her couch and she didn't have the heart to wake him up. She needed to have a meeting with her ANBU to begin searching for suspects. She knew she had promised him she would not tell anyone but action needed to be taken. She intended to get the bastards who had desecrated the innocence of the person she consider a brother.

 

`They will suffer for this'

 

She at the moment was thinking of different ways to torture the animals that had done this. Unfortunately she also had to uphold the law so everything had to be legal… or at least done with stealth.

 

She entered a room containing four ANBU and a silver-haired Jounin and her companion who was now her secretary.

 

“I have a mission for you that will be consider top priority”

 

“Maa maa how troublesome what has happened?”

 

She looked at them seriously and they started to sober up and realize something was up that they would not like.

 

“Shizune I need you to check the records of all the teams that when out and came back from missions the day Sasuke-san tried to leave us five years ago. Once she is done I want Neji-san and Shikamaru-san to investigate each team and ask their whereabouts in between the hours that you guys were also out in your mission. Shino-san and Kiba-san you will be shadowing a guest of my and make sure nothing happens while he is here until I relive you of you duties” she turn from them to sit in a chair.

 

“Hokage-sama may we know what has happed?” She could see Kakashi was getting restless since she had not told him yet what this was all about and what his duties were.

 

“I'm sorry but at the moment that is not possible. I want to see if you all can find what I'm looking for with as little information possible. It is …a delicate mission and I'm not at liberty of disclosing that information as of yet.” She knew they would not be satisfied with that but she could not betray Naruto anymore than she had already by making it a mission.

 

“Kakashi-san, stay here after the meeting. Shino-san and Kiba-san, wait outside my office. The rest of you are dismissed. Your missions start tomorrow morning.”

 

They filled out while looking at her with curiosity. She had to control her self so that she would not disclose how personal this mission was to her but like the last person in the room notice her distress.

 

“Now Kakashi, as you must have guessed by now this is very personal mission to me so please take that into consideration. I will tell you as much as I'm able to say and then let you know of your duties.”

 

She notice that Kakashi was a little surprise that she was willing to tell him of what it all was about but continued to speak.

 

“It's about Naruto…” she registered the gasp that came from the other man “and the reason why he has been missing for five years”

 

“Something happen after the fight between him and Sasuke and this is where you come in. I need you to go speak with Sasuke and ask him if he notice anything after their fight. Do not, and I repeat do not tell Sasuke that Naruto is back. Naruto…has change and I know about Sasuke's feelings towards the kid. He won't understand why Naruto did what he did without hearing the whole story and that is something I can't tell him or anyone. Those are Naruto's wishes…he didn't even want me to look for the bastards that…”

 

She cut her self off when she notice what she was about to say. Her rant had almost driven her to betray Naruto's trust once again. She looked away for a moment trying to collect her feelings for the second time that day.

 

“well…after you speak with Sasuke I need you to join Shino and Kiba in guarding my guest…Naruto…but you cant tell him that you know it's him since he doesn't want anyone to know he is back”

 

She knew she was betraying him in a different way by revealing this information to Kakashi but she wanted him to be safe and she was going to do what needed to be done for him to stay safe.

 

Throughout her speech she had seen all the feeling that had crossed through his visible eye and the guilt that the man felt at no having been able to protect Naruto better.

 

He then spoke up. “Hokage-sama…Naruto is in your office right now?” She nodded and he continued “and…you called us right away after you finished speaking with him?”

 

Now she was confused “Well of course! Do you think I would do nothing after what he told me?” She was getting annoyed by his question and with a sight said “why don't you get to the point”

 

 

 

Kakashi POV.

 

 

While she was speaking to him about what part he was to take in this mission and who they were to protect he could not help the self loathing that he was feeling. He felt like he had not done enough to prevent Naruto from getting hurt hence causing his Iruka's suffering.

 

His lover had taken Naruto's disappearance really hard he barely ate or slept much in the first two years and had been depressed since then until the last three months. After much hard work from his part he had manage to help him through his depression.

 

Sasuke in the other hand was another story. He had blamed him for Naruto's disappearance until it became obvious that the boy was in love with the blond. The Uchiha heir had become if possible more anti social in the last few years. He had talked a few times with the boy but the evidence of his depression was obvious to anyone who looked hard enough.

 

It was then that he remembered something from earlier before the meeting had begun. Then it clicked in his mind. `Oh no, I hope I'm wrong in assuming this'

 

He then spoke up. “Hokage-sama…Naruto is in your office right now?” She nodded and he continued “and…you called us right away after you finished speaking with him?”

 

She looked a little confuse before answering with a hint of annoyance “Well of course! Do you think I would do nothing after what he told me?” She sighted and said “why don't you get to the point”

 

`Damn'

 

“I think Sasuke already knows of Naruto and what has happened” when he noticed her shock he continues to explain his assumptions.

 

“I talked with Sasuke earlier today and he said he was going to ask you for some days off later today. He also told me he had seen a strange man on the market the other day so he decided to come right way. Before you called for a meeting, I walked by you office and I saw Sasuke very distressed right outside your door. I tried to ask him what happen but he ignored me and left in a hurry”

 

She lookes at me with wide eyes and says “kuso”

 

Sasuke POV

 

After running out on Kakashi I headed home and did the only thing I could think of doing with all the pain I was feeling, I cried for the first time in a long time.
