Chapter 2
“Sasuke!” Ino shouted when she saw who was the intruder that intruded Konoha. She took the syringe from her lower abdomen and tossed it away. “You’re not going anywhere Sasuke!” she shouted and readied herself for a fight.
Kiba and Akamaru who was growling came at the scene and Kiba like Ino was surprised, “I thought you don’t want to step foot at Konoha again?” he asked.
Sasuke stood straight and shook his head, “…and still Is.” He frowned, “Konoha has something that I want but now…” he looked menacingly at Ino then he evilly grinned, “I will be watching you Yamanaka.” He growled at the blonde kunoichi before he took something from his pack and threw it at the three ninjas. (Akamaru is and will be ninja for me…ne?)
“Duck Ino!” Kiba said before he jumped over Ino. Akamaru enlarged himself and threw his body to protect his master and his master’s friend.
The explosion shook the ground getting the attention of chuunins and jounins within 1 mile radius. When the smoke cleared, Kiba brought up his face to see Sasuke gone. He looked at his old buddy who was covering him and Ino. Akamaru was panting and he whined when he looked at Kiba.
“Are you hurt buddy?” Kiba asked worriedly. Akamaru barked in response and started licking Kiba’s face.
Ino winced when she saw it, “My God Kiba! I kiss you on your cheek and you let your dog slobber on you there?!” Ino got a chill in her bones then she stood up beside Kiba who was inspecting the hurt animal.
“I did not ask you to do that! You’re the one who keeps on pretending!”
“AHHHH! Not so loud Kiba! Someone might hear you!”
“So what?!”
Their conversation was halted when Akamaru barked looking from afar.
“Someone’s coming!” Ino said then she made a pout to Kiba’s dismay. The dog ninja just shook his head and continue inspecting the still lying dog.
“INO! KIBA!” Ino heard Naruto’s irritating voice and soon she found him coming with the rest. Naruto stood before Akamaru and crouched down to help Kiba inspect the hurting dog. “What the heck happened here?!” He asked once he saw the large crater made by the explosion.
“We tracked the intruder but he got away.” Kiba said
“No shit Sherlock!” Ino said frowning.
“Hey!” Kiba shouted at Ino then returned to what he was doing.
Hinata who was at the back of Naruto turned her head to see one pink haired kunoichi coming without her “partner”. “Sakura-chan is coming, maybe she could heal Akamaru.” Hinata said smiling.
“Oh yeah!” Naruto said excitedly then stood up and waved at Sakura to hurry up.
Sakura landed just in front of Akamaru who barked happily upon seeing her, “What happened here?”
“We got to the intruder but he was fast, he got away.” Ino said looking at Sakura who crouched down and laid her palm on top of Akamaru and started healing the hurting dog.
“So did you two saw who the intruder was?” Sakura asked without looking back.
Kiba and Ino shared a look then Ino nodded at Kiba.
“It was Sasuke.” Kiba answered expecting Sakura to have a fit for not seeing her prince charming.
Sakura looked at Kiba then frowned, “And he did this?” Kiba and Ino nodded, both surprised at Sakura’s lack of emotion regarding the matter. “I thought he swear not to set foot here again?” she asked
“That’s what I asked him too.” Kiba
“So?” The other chuunins asked.
“I don’t know, he said Konoha have something he wants but…” Ino frowned “…then he told me he’ll be watching me. Freaky!” Ino said shivering.
Sakura gulped and look at Ino, “He threatened you?” Sakura asked anger clear in her voice.
Ino’s brows rose up, whoa…did Sakura just get mad at Sasuke for threatening me? Ino wanted to jump for joy and she didn’t because she has no proof, “Yeah I think he did.” Ino replied and then looked at Kiba who sneaked a peek at her.
“So what did you do to piss him off?” Sakura asked. Jeez…why the heck am I angry!So he threatens Ino, so what? It’s not as if Ino and I were best friends anymore! Sakura thought. She smiled when Akamaru started licking her hand and the dog started stretching his long body. “Oh I think he’s okay now.” Sakura said removing her hand from Akamaru.
“Thank you Sakura.” Kiba said before jumping on his dog. The two started wrestling.
Sakura smiled as she watched the two, the others were watching as well but Ino was watching another…her eyes were on Sakura who noticed her staring, “What?”
Ino grinned mischievously, “Did I just hear you right?”
Sakura’s face blushed knowing what Ino was talking about, “Hear me what?”
“You were angry at Sasuke for threatening me?” Ino teased,
“I’m not!”
“Hey Sakura, don’t get used to getting angry at anyone who threatens me, I might think you actually care for me.” Ino’s face has this brilliance Sakura saw when they were still young and still friends.
“I’m so not angry about him threatening you, as if!” Sakura’s blushed intensified and then she muttered, “Assuming…”
Ino just smiled at Sakura then she turned her attention to the wrestling duo, she laughed when Naruto and Sai of all people jumped in the melee. Sakura on the other hand accidentally eyed the blonde woman who she just noticed to be standing beside her, she hurriedly took off her eyes on her as she felt another blush crept up her face, what the heck…

“Hmmm…” Tsunade was peppering Shizune’s neck with kisses when they heard a knock on their door. The blonde Hokage brought up her face and angrily called out “We are not to be disturbed!!!” at the door.
“Gomen Hokage-sama! But the intruder escaped!” The anbu who was assigned to report said loud enough for the two women to hear inside. Shizune looked at Tsunade with a smile, “You’re good,”
Tsunade smiled, “I wouldn’t be the Hokage if not.” She said before returning her attention to the door, “I know! Leave!”
“But…”
“I’ll hear the full report tomorrow morning! I’m going to count to three if I still feel your presence there I’m…”
Shizune and Tsunade eyed each other when the presence suddenly disappeared.
“WOW…”
“Well that wasn’t as good as your threats Shizune.” Tsunade said smirking.
Shizune frowned, “What the hell are you implying?”
Tsunade’s smile was her response.
“YOU!” Shizune pushed the older woman off her and stood up not worrying about her state of undress, “Go to bed yourself!!!” she said bending down to get her night clothes.
“Oi Shizune!” Tsunade said trying to stop the woman from leaving. “Oi! Aren’t you used to me yet!!!”
“NO!”
“SHIZUNE!”

Ino kept on turning on her bed, I think something’s wrong with me…but what? Could that syringe carry a poison? But it has been 6 hours, if it’s a poison I should have felt something off…okay I feel off but good off rather than bad. She cleared her mind and tried to concentrate her chakra flow in her body. Nothing’s wrong with my body…so what is this I’m feeling? Then th memory of Sakura and her angry tirade came to mind, heh, maybe I was just happy that Sakura almost…yeah almost stood up for me! Hehehe, that must be it.
The blonde kunoichi’s smile widened and she drifted off to sleep with Sakura in her mind.

Next Day
The chuunins along with the Anbu that reported the night before was standing before the still sleepy Hokage and a cheerful Shizune. Tsunade glared at her right hand knowing why the younger woman was so cheerful this morning.
“Okay, the intruder escaped…is there anymore juicy report other than that?” The Hokage asked and smiled at the people in the room.
“Amm…” Kiba
“Obaasan, Kiba and Ino saw who was the intruder!” Naruto said in his usual tone.
The Hokage raise one eye brow as a form of question.
“Sasuke.” Ino replied. And the chuunins were surprised with the Hokage’s lack of enthusiasm.
“I know.”
“WHAT?!” Everyone in the room asked bewildered except of course for Shizune.
“Didn’t you understand me?” Tsunade said frowning.
“We understood, but you said you know and why the heck didn’t you tell us before we ran after him? We could have made a decent trap for him!” Shikamaru said a bit angry.
Tsunade looked at him sternly which caused the young Nara to gulp and then she smiled and rest her back on her chair’s backrest. “Where’s the fun in that?”
Shizune and Sakura rolled their eyes.
Tsunade then took an empty bottle from her hidden drawer and put it on top of her table, “He took this.”
Every eyes focused on the bottle, “What does it have?” Neji
“Fertility gel.” Tsunade answered then showed to the chuunins a broken syringe, “This empty bottle and empty syringe were recovered from the site of explosion so will anyone tell me what happened?”
Silence
“Me and Ino with the help of Akamaru tracked him, we apprehended him but he threw an exploding ball on us and that’s it.” Kiba explained then the Hokage looked at Ino.
“And the syringe?” Tsunade asked again.
“He accidentally hit me with that.” Ino said in defeat.
“I see.” Tsunade said now with worry in her face.
“So Tsunade-sama, what does that fertility gel do?” Sakura.
Silence
“Unlike usual fertility pills that works to increase female’s ovulation, this gel is actually a mass that could be transformed into a living human being.” She explained and looked at each faces focusing intently on Ino who suddenly lost color on her face.
“Then I…” Ino
Tsunade shook her head, “The gel acts as a mass, it cannot be transformed unless 2 sets of DNA is mixed with it.”
“Ah…how come you know about this?” Ten-ten
The Hokage smiled, “Orochimaru and I worked on it when we were still training under the third Hokage, Sarutobi-sensei. He found out about this ‘mass’ (1) that could take in DNA. That time I was desperate, my fiancée and brother were killed in the war and I wanted to bring their memories back. I got my fiancée’s blood sample and I could use mine but, as it was, we can’t play God. It didn’t progress…I left Konoha.”
“So how come…” Naruto
“My guess is that, Orochimaru secretly continued studying the mass. He needs a new body that would not decay in three or four years after taking over which happens because the body he stole doesn’t have his DNA. So my guess is he used all the knowledge he know to build a working mass.” Tsunade took a deep breath, “And I guess he succeeded, because if not, I don’t think Sasuke will risk coming here to get it.”
“So does that mean I’m going to be pregnant?” Ino asked worriedly, her face still pale. Hinata and Chouji beside her.
“We can’t be sure yet. We are not sure if Sasuke mixed his blood into that gel. If he did, then with the gel inside you which is the best incubator for it, then you’ll get pregnant.” Tsunade said.
“With Sasuke’s baby?” Ino said wanting to cry.
“Yes, so it’s either you’ll have a normal pregnancy or an ectopic one.”
“Ectopic?” Sakura said worried
“Depends on where the syringe hit her. If the syringe hits anywhere in her body that is not part of the uterus, you’ll have ectopic.” Tsunade said calmly, “Now, the second option which is by far the best is that nothing was mixed to it yet so if it’s in your body it will only have one set of DNA and it will not progress, hence your body will just destroy it and then flushed it out for good.”
Ino closed her eyed, Oh let it be number 2, let it be number 2!
“What’s the chance of option number two happening?” Sakura again
“The chance to get either one or two is 50-50.”
Ino looked scared and it was not unnoticed by her friends. “I want to know now if…”
Tsunade shook her head no, “We can’t know yet, let’s wait 4 weeks before we could do a complete pregnancy test on you.”
“FOUR WEEKS!!!” Ino shouted then her face becomes paler and she fainted.
-End Chapter 2-
1) Remember Ryoko created using the mass (Tenchi Muyo) so that’s where I patterned the fertility gel…or whatever I called it at the first chapter.
