*Discontinued* Fate Changer (A Naruto Fanfiction)

Chapter 17: The Sand Siblings

Namikaze Minato's POV:
Team raven was in my office giving their report on theirs and team seven most recent mission. Its been two years since Haru's incident which scared the genins. The two are fine now, but Sasuke and Naruto coddle the boy even more now. As I was daydreaming the door slammed open and team seven walked in.
"Dad! Please give us an easier mission! We need a break! We're only genins, but we've been doing Anbu missions for two years!!!" Naruto complained, Sasuke grunted in agreement and Sakura nodded without looking at Sasuke for his opinion first. Raka and Haru were chuckling at the scene, probably another joke no one else is in on. I sighed loudly, "You do understand why your team is doing more advanced missions right?" The team all said yes. Sighing loudly I declared. "You have a week free and then I'll give you a genin level mission." Naruto jumped up and down excitedly, Sasuke looked happy based off of the small crinkle at the corner of his eyes and Sakura hit Naruto over the head apologising for his misbehaviour. This team has came together like family in the past two years, I'm happy for my children.

Team seven left my office and Itachi spoke up. "They've been showing up around the village..."
"Its next week..." Kakashi said a slight smile visible through his mask, only Raka can get him to remove it.
"I remember our... The good old days..." Obito had a nostalgic smile, his eyes betraying his sadnesses.
"They'll notice soon... I'll make the official announcement." I spoke.
"You think Raka already knows?" Itachi asked curiously.
"Haha, doesn't he always?"
Itachi grunted in response, it always amazes me how Obito is so cheerful, he is an Uchiha after all.
"I'm officially giving team Raven the mission to protect our junjiriki!" I declared ensuring I only said junjiriki in singular, because in hidden villages all the walls have ears, not to mention there are many strangers present.

Gaara POV:
We just entered Konoha today for the chunin exams, Kankuro and Temari both snuck out of our hotel this after noon so I'm tailing them.
Kankuro stopped in a park, there was three genins sitting on the swings. A big with black hair and eyes, an Uchiha no doubt. A girl with long pink hair and a boy with black hair and green eyes. My eyes got caught on the green eyes, there was something strange about that boy... Shukaku doesn't want me to kill him, my eyes narrowed threateningly. Kankuro approached the trio and plucked the snake off the green eyed boys shoulders. Snapping out if his distracted state he spun around to confront Kankuro. Did the boy notice my gaze? No that should be impossible...
"Give Haru back!" The pinkette yelled loudly in a deeper time than I expected.
"Why should I do that? I happen to need a new snake skin water holster." The Uchiha narrowed his eyes throwing a rock at Kankuro, my eyes widened in surprise, these kids are strong, that rock went through Kankuro's wrist. The pink haired girl exclaimed, "Sasuke! I'm so sorry about my teammate. I'm a healer, let me fix that." She took a few steps forwards presenting her wrists, showing she was unarmed. After he was healed the green eyed boy spoke. "Return..." The snake disappeared in a puff of smoke surprising Temari and Kankuro.
"A ninken huh... The next exams look like they'll be fun..." Temari started, "You three are joining the exams correct?"
"The chunin exams? Our sensei's gave elected participants yet." The pinkette replied causing Temari to laugh and say she was looking forwards to meeting there. Realising the meeting was about to end I used my sand to teleport down there. The boy with green eyes tensed before I arrived, interesting... Is he a sensor? There's something off about the boy... Something inhuman...
I appeared in front of the boy and asked, "What is your name?" The boy stepped behind his two teammates and replied curtly, "Raka." I tried to get closer, there was something different about that boy and I wanted to know what it was. "Gaara! When did you get here?" Temari asked, I ignored her and proceeded to advance in the boy until a shout was heard. "I'm back!" A boy wearing black and orange clothing yelled out waving at the trio. "Who are they?" The blind boy with whisker marks asked when he was half way towards us. When he was Ren meters away his head snapped up to meet my eyes, mine did the, same... A junjiriki...
