Sasuke and me just started to walk back to the old man's house after completing the tree climbing. I didn't think she would really help us. Maybe we should tell about this to Kakashi-sensei. Maybe, just maybe, she could come back with us to the Hidden Leaf village. This is why she ran away from the Hidden Mist after all, they forced her to do missions she didn't want to do and treated her like she was some weapon.

"Hey, Sasuke." I said.

"Hn? What do you want?"

"Do you think we should tell about this to Kakashi-sensei?"

"Yeah, it would be the best. He would ask how did we finish this fast, so we have to." He replied

"Do you think we could convince him to let her come back with us? She just wanted to find a new home, but ended up as a criminal." I asked again but I only got a 'Hn', and with that, we didn't talk more while we was on our way back.

We got back to the house and eat dinner. I wanted to eat more than Sasuke but we ended up puking after Sakura-chan scolded us for eating that much.

She asked about the picture on the wall and they told us the story after Inari, Tazuna's grandson, he yelled at us that we should leave or we will die.

After that he ran away and the old man told us why is he like that. He needs to grow up.

——————————————————————————————–——–————

We are now finished with dinner but noone left. Instead we talked, until our talk with Kasumi came back to my mind.

I looked at Sasuke, only to find that he stared at me. He nodded so I spoke up.

"Kakashi-sensei" I said and with a 'hm' he signaling me to continue.

"It's about our training."

"What about it?"

"When we were training, I fall from the tree but..." Sakura-chan started to laugh at this.

"But what?"

"The girl, you told us about, saved me. I could've broken a leg and arm if she wouldn't do it." I told him and his eyes widened.

"The girl you told us about saved me. I could've broken a leg and arm if she wouldn't do it." Naruto said and my eyes widened and Sakura stopped laughing.

'She saved him? Why would she do that?'

"Naruto! It's not a good joke! Why would someone like her save you!?" Sakura scolded him.

"Shut up. It's not a joke, she really did save him, I saw when it happened." Sasuke said, shutting her up.

'So this is not another one of Naruto's pranks, unless he somehow convinced Sasuke to join him. No,' I tought shaking my head. 'He would never do this. Not after we talked about Itachi in front of him.'

"Did she attack you or said something what we could use?" I asked.

"No. She didn't attack, but she told us about why did she ran and how did she end up with Zabuza."

"Could you tell us? Maybe we could find something useful." My pink haired student asked her two teammates.

——————————————————————————————–——–————

Naruto and Sasuke told us everything that happened and that she helped them in their training.

"So you two trying to say that she ran away from the village, because she have had enough from all the missions she had to do?" Sakura asked, not quite believing what they just said a few minutes ago.

The two boys nodded at her, signaling they told the truth.

"Sensei?" Naruto spoke up once again.

"Yes?"

"Could she come back with us to the Leaf Village?"

"You idiot! How could you ask something like that!? She's a Rogue Ninja! Of course she can't!" Skura yelled at him.

"No... It would be possible. She ran away because they forced her to do missions and didn't give her a break amongst them. If Hokage-sama agrees, she could become a Hidden Leaf Shinobi." I said. 'She could give us information on the Village as well. I hope she'll come with us, she could have a new life in a new place.'

"Yes!" Naruto cheered and even Sasuke smiled a little, almost invisibly, but he did, and Sakura just sat there, hoping she stays away from her Sasuke.
