It was a morning like it was in a picture book.
A hot summer day awaited the residents of Konohagakure.
Nobody worried because they knew they were being protected.
Naruto was lying in bed and still dreamed of becoming a Hokage and he would make it too, but before that he and his friends had other problems.
Team 7 was still around and not much had changed other than that everyone had grown up.

Sakura was walking the streets happier than ever.
Nobody could spoil her mood at the moment, because she knew that the day was getting closer and closer when she could hug someone again and this time she would never let him go.
She was determined to confess his love to him, but there was something that would thwart her plans.

Kakashi, on the other hand, spent most of the time reading and didn't worry about any problems that might arise.
But that is a mistake because he is making, because something will come up to him that he has never had to deal with.

More and more Sakura felt that he would be there soon, but where from?
Did he let them know or did she just know?

She ran to Naruto's house and knocked on his window.
"Naruto, come out with me for a while. Today is such a beautiful day and you will spend it inside your room."
Said Sakura in a loud and high-pitched voice that gave Naruto goose bumps.
"Sakura, you can't knock like a normal person, but on the door and not on the window. Besides, it's way too warm outside. It's nice and cool in here."
Sakura rolled her eyes and walked on again without saying goodbye.
But she didn't care.




Far away in Kirigakure everything seems different. Nothing went perfectly here, on the contrary. Everything went wrong here, no matter what you tried.
Many rumored that there was a curse on Kirigakure, but there were many who would not believe it.
"What should we do? The villagers are getting more and more aggressive. Even if you can't help it, they'll blame you for it. You really have to come up with something." Said a young woman to someone whose face was covered.
"Shut up. Don't you think I know what's going to happen here soon? We won't have any other choice than to go to Konohagakure and get a specialist. As reluctantly as I do this."
Carefully she took a few steps closer to him, but stayed at a distance because she knew that he would quickly become unpredictable.
"I've known you for so long, but every day I discover a new side of you that makes me more and more afraid."
She waited hopefully for a word of reassurance, but she was expecting too much, because he had never uttered a word of reassurance.
Only his almost diabolical laugh could be heard, which could drive you crazy."Come back to reality at last. He's dead and you can never get him back, as much as you wish. How many years has it been? Four or five years? Why do you mourn after him for so long? You. You." you told yourself what he said when he died. Then just do it! "She yelled at him, which was a big mistake, because she knew it, he stood in front of her and hit her with his fist exactly her cheek.
As much as she tried to counter it, it was too strong and she fell back a few meters, where she then lay on her back.
She straightened up, but only shook her head without saying anything.
She got up, gave him one more look, and wiped away the blood that came out of her mouth.
"You know what? I had a little bit of hope that one day you would be sensible again, but I was apparently wrong. I'll be there tomorrow morning and go to Konohagakure with you if you want. But your answer can you tell me tomorrow too. "She left the large room without looking at him again.
Anger and anger spread through him that he could seldom control. But she stayed with him for no particular reason.



Sakura got up very early the next morning and went to greet someone.
The sun was just rising and everyone was still asleep in Konohagakure except her.
Since she had to run past Naruto's house and he was an early bird, he saw her run past. Of course he was curious again and ran after her, because he wanted to know where she was going to go so soon.
He followed her unnoticed and hid when she suddenly stopped and waited there.

However, his eyes got smaller and smaller and he would soon have fallen asleep, had it not been for that shrill scream from Sakura again.
He peeked around the corner and saw an old friend standing with Sakura.
"What? How can it be ... Hm, I'll wait and see what happens." Naruto thought and stayed hidden.
"Sasuke, you've been away for so long. Finally you're back here with us, here at home." Sakura was happy to see him and even more pleased that he was hugging her, which even amazed her.
Overjoyed, she put her arms around him and almost started to cry, but she refrained from it.

He gently pushed her back a little and smiled at her.
"I missed you!" He suddenly said to her and inside Sakura was jumping for joy.
But this joy quickly vanished again when she heard a woman's voice calling for Sasuke.
He turned around but did not take his arm off Sakura's shoulder.
“Sasuke, where did you run to again?” You could hear this woman calling.
Even Naruto got goose bumps, because this screeching voice was even more terrible than Sakura's.Sakura was a little annoyed, but didn't want to show it.
Then suddenly she stood there. Red hair, glasses and she made an imaginary impression on Sakura right from the start.
"Sakura, may I introduce you to Karin. She had accompanied me for a while." Sasuke said and at first didn't feel the tension between Sakura and Karin. But when he noticed, he let go of Sakura and took a few steps to the side.
"So you are Sakura. I thought you were a lot prettier, but I didn't think that you were so ugly either." What did Sakura have to hear from Karin's mouth? That already programmed total anger, but Sasuke stayed out of everything.
"Now watch out, you stupid pig. If I were you, I would think twice about what I'm saying. You don't make friends with it here and I doubt whether Sasuke thinks that is so good."
So it happened that the two of them screamed at each other for a while, but Sasuke held back.
"Tell me, are women always that bad?" Suddenly someone asked Sasuke and he looked behind him.
"Naruto ... I have no idea if this is normal, but apparently it is."
Naruto was visibly glad that Sasuke was back, but didn't say it, rather kept silent. Sasuke understood it without words.

"Karin, what's that? It's enough now!" Sasuke said a little louder with a raised voice and Karin was suddenly calm.
"Sasuke, I'm sorry, but I don't think she's good enough for you."
Sakura looked at Naruto in amazement and couldn't explain all of this anymore. What kind of conceited cow was that attacking Sasuke.
"Sakura, I would like to take you for a walk. Are you coming with me?" Sasuke asked, smiling so charmingly that Sakura had no other choice and just had to say yes.
"Oh Naruto. Don't you want to show her where to sleep. Thank you!" Said Sakura to Naruto and ran away with Sasuke.

Karin was obviously totally jealous, but she didn't do anything about it yet.
Naruto, however, found this situation very amusing and just grinned, which Karin didn't like at all.



"That you came with me doesn't mean that I'm happy about it. Don't forget why we're here and don't cause any trouble, we can't use that here in Konohagakure. So behave yourself for once. Ok?"
A short nod could be seen from her side and nothing more.
But what do the two of Kirigakure want here in Konohagakure and who are they actually?
In any case, it will be an unpleasant surprise for Kakashi, Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke to see him again.
