Sakura snuggled deeper into Sasuke's warmth as she slept. Her dreams carried her far away.

"Sakura. . ."

She was in a golden field. The sky a bright blue above her. She sat down and saw that she was not alone. Sasuke sat next to her. He held her hand and watch the clouds with her.

"Mommy! Daddy!"

A small child ran up to them. He sat on Sasuke lap. Sakura recognized the black hair on his head. Suddenly the child glanced up at her. His eyes were black as well. The child smiled at her and the dream faded. . .

"Sakura?"

"Hmm?"

"Have a good night's sleep?", Sasuke asked.

"Yeah, but I had a strange dream."

"What about?"

"It was you and me. . .and a little boy."

"What's so strange about that?", Sasuke questioned. So far the dream seemed pretty normal compared to ones he would have.

"The boy, h-he looked like. . .like your son."

Sasuke's eyes widened, but then he relaxed. He wrapped his arms tight around Sakura. "I still don't understand what you mean by strange."

"I don't know who the mother is."

"Sakura, there's only one person the mother could be, if the child is mine."

Sakura looked into his eyes, questioning.

"You", he finally said.

"Me?"

"Of course. We'd better get ready. Audrey is probably getting antsy out there."

"Right."

They both got out of bed and prepared for the day. They walked out and went into the living room. Everyone else was already there.

"It's about time you got here!", Audrey said irritably.

"We decided to wait for you before we made the finishing details of the plan", Neji said.

"Well, what's our strategy?", Sasuke asked.

"The strategy is, we do nothing", Audrey said as if it made the most sense in the world.

"Nothing?", Sakura questioned.

"We can't just storm through and expect to win. The plan is to let them come to us", Neji explained.

Audrey stretched and sighed.

"I'm pretty sure that it's gonna be a while before they get here, so let's just rela-"

"We can't relax! Don't you know what Itachi is capable of?!", Neji yelled.

Audrey gave him a blank stare.

Neji sighed. "Of course. I think we should be preparing at least."

Every gave a sign of agreement. That being said, it should probably be explained what preparing means to them. To normal humans like us, to prepare for a battle would be assembling weapons, trying out each one before placing it in its holster or sheath.

But for them, they use their instruments. Sakura listened as they tuned and strung them. It sounded as if she was at the theatre and the orchestra was just starting. The hum of the violin and the whisper of the flute, and everything else was in harmony even though there was no rhythm.

"Sakura! Sakura!"

She blinked her eyes and noticed Sasuke had her by the shoulders. Her mind was fuzzy and she couldn't remember what she was doing.

"What happened?", she asked.

"Sorry, I guess we sort of hypnotized you", TenTen said.

"I think we've practiced enough! Can't we rest!", Audrey whined.

She was met with silence. Well, not complete silence. Outside, the wind rushed and leaves swept away.

"He's here", Naruto said.

"What? Already? And without a call, how rude!", Audrey exclaimed.

"Let's go", Sasuke said. "Audrey, you and your friend stay here and protect Sakura."

Everyone else went outside to fight Itachi and his philharmonic army.
