Author POV

The two babies gurgled in delight while the little dango seemed to just hang there in front of them.

"Aww you two are just adorable!" The old lady cooed as she watched happily while the two babies nibbled on the green dango.

"Its such a shame.... Their own parents committed suicide! Just one look at their child... Poor children.." The old lady Mae was her name, she muttered under her breath thinking that the two little toddlers couldn't understand.

Sakura looked at her red headed friend Aged eyes flitting back and forth between him and Mae, pointing to a leather bound book she crawled over to Mae.

"M-m-mae!" She gurgled and Mae smiled with happiness that the little child had spoken her first words.

Stretching her arms out with a closed smile the little baby crawled on one arm and started to nibble on a bulge, Mae's eyes widened knowing what she hid there but how did Sakura a girl of only One find it?

That bulge was a hidden Kunai that the older woman hid if in case of a attack she would be able to defend hers and the babies lives.

That night was a cold and silver night, the wind seemed to pick up blossoms and carry them around swirling as if dancing. The wind carried a scent, the scent of blood and poison as two figures stooped below the square cut window of the log cabin.

"Shhh be quiet Ina!" A voice hissed as his partner clumsily tripped and broke a few branches and twigs under her.

"Yeah yeah.... Why are we here again Taki?" She muttered and checked her kunai as it gleamed under the glaring moon.

"We are here under orders to assassinate Mae Tsunamo! The Jonin who killed our boss's wife.." Taki grumbled as he narrowed his eyes and strained his ears to only hear gurgling and cooing.

He pressed his ear against the wood in hope to hear what was inside and was surprised to hear giggling and soft words.

Babies? He thought but refocused on the task on hand. He slid his hand through his pale green hair and sighed. He had a natural feel for babies and he couldn't stand the thought of them witnessing death at that young age...

But he had a mission to do and he was going to complete it so he motioned for Ina to move in while he watched from the dark.

She swiftly came inside silently creeping to the lady while her back was turned as she rocked in her little wooden chair.

Step

Ina closing in Kunai raised and poised to strike until she saw the little Crystal green eyes that seemed to stare into her soul. The little baby looked at her and glanced at the sleeping Mae.

"I-I'm so sorry..." Ina murmured as she struck the knife into the old lady, blood trickling down her open mouth as her breathing was getting ragged.

She glanced behind her to see the pained Kunoichi standing with the bloody knife, hands trembling as Mae stared at her with a loving Passion.

"T-take these t-two to k-konoha...." She gasped as pain weaved through her body and she closed her eyes giving a smile to the two babies as they stared monotonously at the now dead woman.

Sakura looked at Ina and something dark flitted in her eyes as she stared at the terrified kunoichi.

"T-Taki! We need to take these two to Konoha..." Ina gasped at the pink haired baby and her glare. Taki climbed through the window and hefted the dead body onto his shoulders motioning for Ina to carry the two.

They made their way through the woods setting camp every now and then, finally spotting the red gates of the Hidden Leaf Village.

Leaving the two babies by the gate the two ninja bounded away eager to head back to their own village.

Being there by the gates the babies crawled into the village finding a big box as they huddled under it finally sleeping in each others arms.

One thought crossed their mind and that was

Together till the end...
