It was a normalday in uchiha house hold. Sakura as usual was preparing food. Sasuke was on mission he is going to come day after tomorrow. Sarada is also playing with her soft toys and one paper kunai.
At least that is what Sakura thought when she left sarada in their room to play. Sarada is already 4 years old she can talk now, and she is surprised how her daughter can speak like a mature person. Sakura smiled on her own after thinking about their daughter's sweet baby talks.
She washed all the used dishes for food and sat in dining hall to take some rest. She closed her eyes for few minutes but her eyes opened suddenly. Why she is not hearing any sound from their room? Normally sarada talks with her friends or more correctly her soft toys while playing. She has actually thanked kami that their daughter is social like her.
Her brows knitted, this is unusual. Something striked on her head. What If she again hurted herself like today's morning? She already did it in morning while trying to cook with fork for her toys. Instinctively her hand moved to her chest where her heart lies. Nowadays her heart really stops if even a scratch is there in her daughter's Body.
She immediately got up from the dining and walked fast towards their room. Her heart skipped a bit when she saw sarada is nowhere in their room. "Saradaaa...Saradaaa" she searched everywhere in that room. Below their bed, behind the chair, in their bathroom. She is no where. Everything is there. Her every toy, her handkerchief everything is there. She is sure nobody came near the house she has sealed it from inside and if anyone came then she would have known by their Chakra.
What she would do now? What happened to their baby? Whom she should tell? What she will answer to sasuke? She can't even understand what should she do? Kami please make her baby safe.
She stroked her hands on her face in frustration. Just then she noticed the open scroll laying on the floor. She snatched the scroll from the ground. What is this? Her eyes got widen when she realized what is it.
It's the time travel scroll of uchiha clan and there is blood on this scroll. It must be her blood from the cut. Kami what should she do? Has she accidentally activated this? This scroll can not be activated without Uchiha blood. She still tried to activate the scroll by cutting her finger with teeth.
No .. nothing is working. What should she do? her hands started to shake. Where is she? Is she safe? Naruto..yess ...she should inform naruto.
He is the hogake he will help her. She has to make everything alright before sasuke comes. She should have kept the scroll faraway. She slapped herself forhead two times and took the scroll with her toward hokage office.

"Run faster and stop fangirling" Suigetsu said tiredly. "I dont certainly want to know that from you sharkface" Karin rolled her eyes. They were crossing a forest. From here only he felt another Chakra its very similar to his. It can be Itachi who tried to mask his chakra. They are blood related so it is only logical to have same kind of Chakra signature.
If he finds him here, he will not loose another second of his life. He will immediately kill him. They landed near a tree after hearing a sound of cry. Sasuke looked at Karin after hearing that female voice.
Karin lifted her both hand and shrugged. It's not Karin, then who is crying? Is this a trap? He narrowed his eyes and unleashed his katana. It must be a trap the whole Chakra signature is a trap to draw his attention. It must be a trap by Itachi. Well if it is how Itachi wants his death then he should give that much to his dearest brother, He smirked. His smirk vanished when he took few more steps and saw a child nearly 3 4 years old is weeping with one paper katana in her hand.
He knitted his brow, that was not expected. "Wait sasuke don't go near, it can be a trap" Karin shouted from behind. "He knows more than you dumb" suigetsu rolled his eyes. Sasuke took few careful steps towards her until he is standing near her.
She didn't even look at him as she was busy to rubbing her tears from her eyes with her little hand. While her another hand is still holding the paper katana like it's the most precious thing in this world.
He stopped breathing when the girl lifted her head to look at him. It suddenly forced him to remember about his old teammate. He knitted his brows and closed his eyes to remove that thought from his head. "What the...what a child is doing in this forest alone?" Suigetsu came forward.
Sasuke crouched down and immediately that little child came toward him and hugged his folded knees. His eyes widened with this sudden act of affection from some unknown child. He lifted his hand but didn't understand what to do with that. Should he remove her from his knees or should he pat her to calm her down. He sighed and put his hand down again in the same position it was before.
She was murmuring something there while hiding her face in his knee. "Sarada is sorry, papa" she was saying the same thing again. "Who is sarada?" Sasuke asked unconsciously after hearing that murmur.
Sarada lifted her head from his knees and released her hold from his knees only to touch his bangs. "Papa, sarada sorry" and started to sob.
Sasuke immediately got tensed. Is she going to cry? "Your name is sarada?" Karin asked from behind. Sarada nodded after looking at her. "Where are your parents? Are you lost child?" Jugo asked in his calm tone.
Sarada shook her head and said "Papa" after pointing at Sasuke. Everyone's eyes widen including sasuke. What is this girl talking about? Sasuke stood up and took some back steps.
Is it a prank or what? Suigetsu laughed with all his heart. "Papa?....he is your papa?...." Suigetsu put one hand on his stomach it was aching for the laugh " girl you are really lost".
"You don't know where your parents are? Do you know their name?" Jugo asked again. Sarada nodded "everyone know sarada and papa". This time Karin replied "Can you remember their name?".
"He is my papa" Sarada asked after pointing at Sasuke. "You are confusing him with your father" Karin tried to convince her. It is almost impossible for sasuke to restore his clan in this young age where his goal is not completed yet.
"Do you know me?" Sasuke asked. "Yes I know, you are my papa" Sarada said with a confused eye. Sasuke's eyes widen after hearing this. "This girl is simply telling lie" Karin stated. "No sarada never lies, i am saying he is my father" her lips quiverd after saying this.
"Oh really? Then what is his name?" Karin crossed her hands in front of her. "Uchiha sasuke" sarada said while removing her tears with her hand. All that he could remember he is still virgin, how can she claims him her father? If it was not merely a 3 4 year child he would have pointed a kunai on her throat thinking it as a trap. But a child of this age can not lie, then how can it be possible. Then something clicked on his mind.
"How did you came here?" Sasuke asked in his expressionless face. "I was playing with Dino and miko, something dropped from papa's shelf and I went to see that. I touched that and then I am here, mama will scold sarada. Papa please dont tell mama". Sasuke was noticing her every move very carefully .
He did some hand signs and a scroll appeared in his hand. He showed it to the girl "Is this what you touched?". She looked very carefully and nodded. His doubt is right this girl is from another timeline. There is two reason why he had this doubt first is the chakra signature, it's very similar to him. Although itachi and he has somewhat similar chakra signature due to the blood relation but the similarity is not this strong.
At first when the girl denoted him as her father he thought it's a trap but then he noticed her very carefully. She was wearing a red dress with Uchiha symbol on its back. Not only that her chakra signature is like an uchiha, also she has a jet black hair and black eyes like him, there is some similarities between their facial features also. Itachi has not spared any uchiha apart from him so it is impossible to have another Uchiha from this timeline. His doubt is right this child somehow accidentally activated the scroll.
"What is it" Suigetsu asked after seeing this scroll. "Uchiha time travel scroll. It activates with Uchiha blood only" Sasuke replied. "That means this girl is really an uchiha and she activated the scroll accidentally"? Sasuke didn't replied to them. He was busy to look at the child.
This child is claiming him her father. Itachi has not left any uchiha apart from him. It only indicates that he is successful in his goal. He killed Itachi. A smirk appeared to his face. Sarada also smiled at him after seeing his smile. Her papa always smiles at her.
Sasuke's heart skipped a beat when she smiled. Something happened in his heart. Is this really his child from future? Will he really become a family person. Will he again have a family? Yes according to what the girl is saying he has restored his clan.
Sarada opened her arms in a manner to lift her up in his arm. After all she can't differentiate between him and his adult self. For her both of them are her father. He smells same like her father, his voice, his face his everything is same for her.
Sasuke contemplated whether to lift her or not. After few seconds he closed his eyes and lifted her up. It is only humanly to console a child. More importantly she is his future daughter the first step of uchiha restoration.
Her wellbeing is his duty. He is sure for his future self , this girl is more important than his life and he is surely going to come to find her.
Sasuke pulled her and turned around only to face his 3 teammates who are now looking at him with an expression of what the fuck is going on!
Sasuke sighed and replied "She is telling truth. Itachi has not spared any uchiha apart from me. She has a chakra signature like uchiha and this scroll can only be activated by an uchiha and the only uchiha which exist apart from Itachi is me". He looked at his 3 team members and confirmed "This child time traveled here, I guess I ...I mean my future self will surely come to take her, till then we have take care of her".
Suigetsu and Jugo agreed with his decision. Only Karin was still looking at the girl. She was trying to find any similarities between this girl and herself. The only thing which she is thinking about her mother. Will sasuke marry her in future and live happily ever after? Her eyes softened after she looked at the girl. This daughter must be her.
Sarada was looking at Sasuke with a smile which can melt anyone's heart but Sasuke was feeling somewhat awkward. He was not prepared for this unexpected guest and he was definitely not prepared for playing the role of a father in this age. His heart started to feel an unknown warmth when the girl put her head on his shoulder. It was like his racing heart calmed after this. This was strange and at the same time it was feeling like he knew this touch for so long.
He is a kind of guy who hates any physical contact from anyone, even if it's his team mates. For some unknown reason he liked this touch maybe this is what blood relations are. He forgot how it feels when someone from your family touches you. Will he really become a family person and get this peace everyday? Atleast in his future he will reach to a home where everyone will wait for him, his child his wife.
Speaking of wife, he remembered that he never really asked her about his future self and family. Has he really married someone?
His thoughts broke when he felt the soft breaths of the girl on his shoulders. This little one maybe exhausted after crying so much. It's just a luck that he found her, what would happened if someone else found her before them? What kind of parents are they? How could they left such a important scroll in front of this child? He knitted his brow in frustration but it quickly went when her little hands curled around his neck. It was feeling like a hug.
Is this a bond what he is feeling? He is not sure, he doesn't know when the last time he felt this. He closed his eyes to stop these thoughts. He has a responsibility to keep this girl safe and keep her identity confidential untill his future self comes to take her back. "Her identity should not be disclosed to anyone" Sasuke commanded and walk passed them with the child in his arms.
Karin quickly ran to catch Sasuke. "Sasuke you can give her to me, I will take care of her" she replied. "Tch...You are saying like you are her mother" Suigetsu left a chuckle. Karin turned around and adjusted her spectacles before saying "As if you know who is her mother".
"Enough...noone will ask any question to her regarding future. It will only hamper the timeline and future" Sasuke commented in a tone which can be considered as the final decision "We should not know more future without necessity". They moved toward their base.
***
Meanwhile 40 km away
"They are 40 km north" Kiba informed them. "How many are there with him?" The white haired masked jonin asked. "There are 5 people I can smell" Kiba replied after snipping.
"Hey but we were informed that Sasuke left with his 3 companions, then who is the 5th one?" This time the pink haired kunoichi replied. "That is what I am thinking" Kakashi put his index and thumb on his chin.
"What is there to think, let's go there already....oww" Naruto shouted from his place only to earn a punch on his head. "Baka...Lower your voice, how many time I have to teach you these" an irk mark appeared on her head. Naruto rubbed the place where she punched with a sullenface "Sakura chann".
"What should we do?" Sakura asked Kakashi. "I think we should go there and try to stop them, there are no other option" Kakashi replied. "Hai" 4 of them jumped to the next tree and so on to proceed in their "Sasuke retrieval" mission.
