Tsunade : Kakashi.

" ryuushi. " shizune goes into battle stance.

Tsunade : its ok. She's not even tied up. She must have come willingly.

Kakashi: hai.

Tsunade : why?

Kakashi: erm. Can shizune...

" I understand " and she leaves.

" .... I don't know how to put this across to you tsunade-sama." he held onto ryuushi's hand. Ryuushi looked to Kakashi a little surprised " are you sure? "

Kakashi: ryuushi and I are in love.

Tsunade:.... Sigh... Kids nowadays... I understand. So that's why you came back?

Ryuushi: kinda. Hai.

Tsunade: I understand. What do you know?

Ryuushi: the same as you people do. Akatsuki catching bijuu. For what purpose... Pain never says. Everyone just does it because they wanted to show off their capabilities to their village. Big fish in a small pond. The fish looks for a bigger pond.

Tsunade: sigh... I see. And I thought we will get something. Do you know where the akatsuki will go next?

Ryuushi: hai. But they probably will change location that I prepared since I'm caught now.

Tsunade: that makes sense. Ryuushi do you mind if I bring inoichi over to see if they locked up anything in you?

Kakashi: tsunade-sama. Ryuushi please...

Ryuushi: I fine with it. I understand right now no one can guarantee whether I'm on konohagakure's side. I'm willing to stay outside the village by the forest. I can help to lookout if you want. You can watch me from there too.

Kakashi: ryuushi...

Tsunade: you are as the secret scroll says. You don't seem like your age.

Ryuushi: san daime wrote that? He's such a nice person.

Tsunade: why join akatsuki?

Ryuushi:.... I wanted to protect konohagakure when the time comes. But looks like that got trashed... Because of...

Tsunade: I know everything. Why you went to danzou. So I can believe your reason to akatsuki is the same. But you're right. I need to put you under watch.

Kakashi: the elders and the people in konohagakure huh...

Tsunade: I'm glad you understand. Arigato for everything. You can leave now.

Tenzou created a wooden house in the forest " there. Like it? Taichou "

Ryuushi: don't call me that. I'm no longer your taichou since a long time ago.

Tenzou: heh... Habit.

Ryuushi: arigato. For... Trusting me.

Tenzou: taichou...

Ryuushi: I used to be akatsuki. Yet you are willing to believe you. Why?

Tenzou: because...

Ryuushi: you want to observe me too?

Tenzou: half. I also believed that... You won't betray konoha.

Ryuushi: I see. Thanks for believing in me. So? Do you have a girlfriend now?

Tenzou: eh?!! No. No. Taichou. Don't tease me already. You seem friendlier... Now.

Ryuushi: I guess its because of the akatsuki. I didn't have to protect anyone. I didn't have to worry about anyone dying because of me.

Tenzou: taichou...

Ryuushi: 15 and still young. What am I supposed to do with my life nah...

Tenzou: there's still a lot of things you can do isn't it? 15. Live serving konoha. Marrying kakashi-senpai. Having kids.

Ryuushi: ale?.... You know? Me and Kakashi...?

Tenzou: um. Senpai told me. Whenever he misses you, he would talk to me amd reminisce about you.

Ryuushi: there's not much stuff about me is there?

Tenzou: heh...

" Ryuushi. " Kakashi had arrived " how do you like your new house? "

Ryuushi: Kakashi. Um. Its fine. I just need to buy furniture.

Kakashi: then how about sleeping at mine first before you get settled in.

Ryuushi: eh.... That wouldn't be a good idea...

Tenzou: senpai!!! She's still 15!!

Kakashi: eh? Eh? No!!!! I don't have that meaning!!!

Ryuushi: -_- huh?

Tenzou: its ok. I understand taichou. Senpai!!

Kakashi: like I said its not like that!!!

Ryuushi: no... I don't mean that either. I mean... He's the copy ninja. If a suspicious person stays at his house,it wouldn't be nice. People would gossip and bring trouble for him.

Kakashi: waaah tenzou. I didn't think you would think that far.

Tenzou: I'm sorry!!! Stop teasing me!!!

Sakura: eh? You know him too?

Sai: ryuushi. Should I call you senpai? Though we're the same age yet you served him earlier than me.

Ryuushi: don't. He... Is a past I don't want to remember. He must have told you how I betrayed him.

Sai: not really.

Ryuushi: I see. He's still alive?

Sai: hai.

Ryuushi: I see.

Naruto: -_-''''' uhno what are you guys talking about?

Ryuushi: nothing. Why? What? Calling me.

Sakura: still as cold neh.

Kakashi appears and ryuushi stops in her steps " Kakashi? " He pats her head " come on. Let's eat together as team 7. I'll go too. "

Ryuushi:.... But I was never really team 7. I am anbu.

Kakashi: don't sweat the details. Just let's go.

Ryuushi: ok....

Kakashi wraps his arm around her neck and pulls her in " its true. I love ryuushi. " She blushes " you don't have to say it like that. "

Sai: how does it feel to love someone so much older than you? Ryuushi.

Sakura punches sai " enough of that!!!" she sighs " will you guys be more normal? "

Naruto: how am I... Not normal?

Ryuushi smiled. The rest saw her smile and laughed.

Kakashi: actually... There's a mission tsunade-sama wants us to go on. A-rank mission. The whole of team 7. Including ryuushi. You guys ok?

Sakura: oh. Finally!!
