A Ninja's Path (Kakashi X Reader)

Chapter Thirty Four

The silver haired man huffed a breath. "Well, any other suggestions?"

You and Sasuke remained silent.

"Fine, I'll decide. (Y/N) and I are married, you three are our children."

You felt your face turn bright red.

Naruto cackled when he saw your face. "Are you okay, mom?"

You deflated, shaking your head in dismay. "I'm fine, son. Just fine."

Kakashi gave a loud fake cough and you turned to look at him. You could've sworn pink tinged the sliver of cheek you could see.

"Anyways, we need to focus on getting to the village." The silver haired man tried to change the subject.

Silence fell over your team again as you resumed your journey toward the distant lights.

"Adopted."

Everyone gave you a strange look.

"What did you say?" Kakashi asked.

"Adopted." You repeated. "All of our kids are adopted. Except for Sasuke maybe."

Naruto frowned. "Why are we adopted? And why not Sasuke?"

You shrugged. "Because none of you look like you could be my- our children." You gave a pointed look in the silver haired man's direction. "But Sasuke might pass. He's got spikey hair like Kakashi."

The dark haired boy snorted. "Seriously? I'm your kid because of my spikey hair?"

You raised a brow at him. "You got a problem with that, son?"

Naruto burst out in laughter. "Yes! You've finally accepted your role as our surrogate mother!!!"

You did a face palm, silently questioning your life choices.

Your team quickly entered the village- a small row of wooden buildings with a main street and several clusters of houses surrounding it. It was extremely small, the largest buildings being a tavern and town hall.

"Where do we go?" Naruto asked.

Kakashi searched around frantically. "They should have a clinic somewhere..." He muttered under his breath.

A pair of villagers walked by, a man and a woman arm in arm.

"Excuse me! Do you know where we can get some medical help? Like a clinic or hospital?" The silver haired man confronted them.

They backed away, panicked at the sight of Sakura and her deathly complexion.

"Mr. Igaku c-could help..." The man said nervously.

"Where is he?" You asked.

The villagers seemed to jump at the sight of you.

"I-in the house with green shutters." With that, the couple scampered off, turning only to see if you would chase after them.

"Jeez, these people are super jittery." Naruto commented.

You shook your head. "Nevermind that- we have to find this Mr. Igaku!"

All of your teammates nodded. You ran down the street, searching for a house with green shutters.

"Over there!" Sasuke exclaimed.

You looked down a worn path splitting off from the main road, a small house with a shackled roof and peeling green shutters.

"Let's go." Kakashi said.
