Chapter 161: IV Chapter 8 – Tsukiko- Summons

Tsukiko woke up with a bad feeling. She stared at the other side of her bed, her mom was sleeping there curled together into a corner. She must have had another bad night if she had sneaked into her room. 

Standing up, she threw a morning mantel over her PJ's and hushed out of the room, gently closing the door behind herself so not to wake her mom. Snaking through their part of the Hatake building, she went to the Kitchen and got herself a stool. Climbing on it, she put a bit of water on the stove and took out hot cocoa and coffee from the cabinets. 

"Miss, the Suna Shinobi left Konoha." a person said, appearing from thin air behind her. 

"Alright, send someone to help her with the baby until she has settled down, will you." she said and put another small pot with milk on the stove. 

"No Bodyguard?" the other person sounded a bit surprised. 

"None needed, Anuk is a Kage Level Kenjutsu user, not many around that can be a threat to her. I worry more for the baby." 

"As you wish to." The Shinobi vanished back into the shadows and the water was boiling when she put it into a long glass cylinder, put in two teaspoons of coffee and then the filter on it. The good thing about it was, a good old hand driven french coffee machine was easy to replicate. 

"Miss Hatake?" someone asked, the voice faintly familiar but not one she knew. For a moment, she stilled before assigning it to someone. 

"Aoki." She said and put her cup down. In fat letters written on it. Assistant Menace. A gift from Nara-san. "I am getting more visitors than usual this morning. And Minato will have to do something about our security if in two days two people from other villages walk unbothered into Konoha." 

"My Husband requests for your aid." Aoki came straight to the point. "We have someone who infiltrated our village and has aid from locals, we cannot pin them down, so we need someone from outside, someone we trust."

"You know what I like about you and why I think you are the best my damn apprentice ever managed to achieve?" Tsukiko signed. "You are so damn direct at stating business, it is relieving. Coffee?"

She offered him another cup, still empty cup, this one had Lollipop monster printed on it and had been from Minato. People always gifted her cups, cups or notebooks, her mother got her colorful hairpins and funny, small, treasured, silly tokens. 

"No, thank you, we will be expecting your answer by nightfall and should it be positive depart immediately." he said and vanished from the room leaving Tsukiko with her coffee when Kakashi waltzed in. 

"Morning." he muttered bags under his eyes, only at home he ever walked around with his face uncovered. "How is Miyo, she had a bad night, sleeping in your room." 

"She will manage, she always does, has been getting better lately." Tsukiko said and handed Kakashi his cup. Copy Kitten, was written on this one. He slurped his cocoa as he opened the newspaper and the two of them slowly skimmed the news. 

"I will not be here for a couple of days." Tsukiko suddenly said. "Got a summons, to the forgotten." 

"I see." Kakashi said nothing more, and suddenly Tsukik found her head patted. "Watch out for yourself."

"I will, you too. Anbu work?" 

"Not today, just a free day, maybe I will read something, or accompany you." 

"How about taking care of the paperwork stacking in the office?"

"You already did, I know so as a fact, you are better and faster at it anyway." 

"Moron." 

"I know." 

Kakashi suddenly hugged her, and Tsukiko stilled. "What is wrong in the need for hugs?" She asked but did not resist. 

"No, not really, but you needed one, always need one when you wake up with Miyo sleeping in your room." He said, and Tsukiko barked out a laugh. 

"I am fine.... I am fine, no need for that you know, I am a grown ass woman." 

"I know, but you are also an old soul that appreciates the occasional hug." he said, and she hummed closing her eyes, the last days had been so damn exhausting. She remembered back then when she had been in her original world how much she loved being home, her personal sanctuary to stay at. 

"I won't let anyone touch my sanctuary Kakashi, these fools whoever they are we met in Kiri. The ones that put Konoha under a Genjustsu I will get them and then make sure they rest twelve feet under and starve alive down there." She said. "But first I need to find out who is in the forgotten." 

"Alright, tell me if you need someone, something." Kakashi said and let her go. 

"My two dears, my treasures." Miyo stormed into the room, the crisp scent of lemons and flowers following her as she hugged them tightly. "I am going to cook today for us, what do you think, beacon and eggs for breakfast?" She asked and wandered to the stove with a smile on her lips. 

"First we need to get you dressed properly, mom." Tsukiko said and took her mother's hand. She was still dressed in yesterday's clothing, apparently she had slept in them. "And then we do your hair, got it, I am sure Kakashi can cook for us today." 

Her mother followed her with a smile on her face as Kakashi made himself busy making beacon with scrambled eggs for breakfast.
