"How will this test my skills?"

"Is your Sharingan unlocked?"

She nodded. "Good," I said and smiled. "Since it is, you will have 45 minutes to get the bell from me. If you do, I'll treat you to any place you want to eat. If you dont," I paused. "you owe me a favor."

"Deal."

I smiled. "I'll give you a tip, if you want to win, you gotta come at me with the intent to kill me."

"Kill?"

I started the timer. "Time starts now!"

Once I said that she jumped into the trees, I assume to strategize. She better think quickly.

After about 10 minutes, Sarada made her first attack. Fireballs came flying at me, and I easily dodged them. Under where I would've stepped, was a paper bomb. I jumped out of the way. Sarada jumped out from behind a bush and charged at me.

I dodged her attacks and kicked her away. She activated her Sharingan and ran at me. She pulled out a kunai and we fought close combat. She swung at me and I dodged it. She threw a punch, and I threw one with equal force at the same time.

"Your mom taught you well, Sarada, but you'll have to do better than that to beat me," I said before kicking her away again.

After three more attempts, the timer went off, and Sarada didn't have a bell.

"Looks like I win~," I said with a smile while Sarada leaned her hands on her knees, trying to catch her breath.

"You're... so strong," she panted. "Yup," I said before pulling out a small scroll and unsealing a few water bottles.

"Ah, the best way to store things," I said while handing her one.

"Thanks," she said before gulping it down.

"Man, I'm hungry. Let's get dangos!"

....

"You sure do eat a lot," Sarada teases as I ate my fourth stick of dangos.

"Oh, hush," I said with a chuckle. "Speaking of food, let's get barbeque!"

"Barbeque too? Can you afford to eat out so much in one day?"

"I work for the Hokage, of course, I can!"

We walked to the restaurant and got a table, and I ordered a bunch of meat and sides.

"So, what's the favor that you want?" Sarada asked.

I shrugged. "I dunno yet, but I do have a question."

"What is it?"

"How are you and Sakura handling everything?"

Sarada leaned back in her seat. "Swear not to tell?"

I nodded. "Pinky promise," I said while holding out my pinky. She hooked pinkies with me and sighed.

"Well, I know my dad wants to get divorced, but my mom doesn't want to," Sarada said. "The paper just sits on our table, and sometimes my mom just looks at them. Sometimes, when she thinks I'm asleep or something, I can hear her crying. I know this is hard on her."

I sighed. "I feel bad."

"You shouldn't!" Sarada exclaimed. "I want you and my dad to be happy. Mom will be okay."

"So, you're okay?"

"I hate seeing mom so upset, but I'm fine."

"I'm glad you're at least okay."

After that, our food came, and of course, I got to eating. It's like I'm feeding more than one person or something... oh wait, I am lol.

"Sarada, what do you think about having a sibling?" I asked.

She shrugged. "I've never really thought about it. I guess it would be cool. Why?"

I shrugged. "I've always wanted kids," I admitted as I put my hand on my stomach. 'Should I tell her?' I thought.

"It would be cool to have a little sister or brother. I could teach them everything I know about being a ninja and other stuff."

I smiled. "Okay. I'm happy you feel that way."

After we ate, I walked Sarada home, then went back to the Hokage tower. On the way there, I got some more dangos and some chocolate.

Does that even go together? I have no idea. Anyways, when I got there, I saw Naruto and Sasuke flipping through papers.

"This needs your signature," Sasuke said.

"This is another mission, file it with the B ranked ones, please," Naruto said.

They exchanged papers, Sasuke filed it and Naruto signed it.

"Aw, look at you two working together," I said while hugging Sasuke from behind. "It's like just yesterday, we were genin and you two were the biggest rivals. Now, look at us."

"Well, not that much has changed," Naruto said with a grin. "We're still best friends."

"Ah, that is true! And that will never ever change" I said with a bright smile.
