Summary:Nobody took any notice of a small child creeping around, and if they did notice him they didn’t say anything. Everybody was too busy trying to find their families and their loved ones, to scavenge what was left of their houses, to pick up the leftover pieces of their lives.
Iruka wasn’t sure why he walked in the direction he did. Perhaps it was by pure chance, perhaps he was being guided by an unseen hand.
Whatever it may have bee, it led him in the direction of a child. A baby, in fact, one who had his eyes squeezed shut and was silently crying and was so very alone.

Summary:A reaction out of defense has turned Iruka’s world on its head, Kakashi by his side the entire time.
“Let’s rest in this cave. It should be safe there,” Iruka’s traveling partner said.
“Kakashi, what are we going to do? I was always one that followed the rules and laws of Konoha. Now I’m a wanted criminal. I don’t know how to act, don’t know how to live with a title like that hanging over my head,” Iruka said.
“We’re going to Sunagakure. Gaara will listen to reason when we plead our case,” Kakashi replied.
“And if he doesn’t?” Iruka inquired.
“I’m willing to bet my life that he will,” Kakashi answered.
