This is my first fanfiction, so it will probably suck like hell.

This concept was mainly thought up at school, during freeblock, (in the mandarin room TAT). My good friend participated quite a bit in it's creation.

I own nothing, except the story, which saddens me.

File 1: Case opened

Glass walls. That's what surrounds me. I see everything, but in the end I'm just a spectator. I never get involved. That is my world. A world with only me in it. Only me.

"Remind me what the specifics of the crash were again?" The raven haired police officer looked over at his underling. "Haruno!"

"Ah! Oh, um," stuttered the pink haired girl as she fumbled with the papers on her clipboard, dropping some. "Well, um, they're..." More papers fluttered to the ground.

Sasuke sighed.

"Never mind," he muttered as he stalked off, leaving the embarrassed Sakura scrambling to pick the sheets of paper off the floor. Sasuke hated weakness.

As Sasuke walked to the main office of the police station a few low ranking officers tried to catch his attention and get him to sign various forms and waivers, but he waved them aside. Trash didn't deserve his time.

After a couple of these rude rejections, the crowd that filled the room started to dissipate, and Sasuke was able to see to the main offices where a lone figure sat, curled up on the wooden bench under the tinted windows.

Sasuke walked up to the bench and surveyed the blonde boy. He was drenched to the bone and could only stop himself from shivering by holding tightly onto his legs.

"Hey," the officer said. "You're Naruto, huh?"

The blonde stirred and looked up. Sapphire eyes looked into onyx ones.

He looks just like a lost, drowned cat, Sasuke thought.

Almost resignedly he shrugged off his jacket and dropped it over the youth's shoulders.

Naruto's eyes widened in surprise at the kind gesture. So far that day no one had so much as even asked him how he was after the car crash.

"Thankyou," he said, his voice slightly muffled by the jacket.

Sasuke scowled, then dropped to a crouch so that his eyes were level with the boy's sapphire ones. Though he wasn't really a boy, he noted, now that he could really see him. He didn't look much younger than Sasuke himself, albeit Sasuke was only 18 despite his looks and police badge.

"So what happened this morning in the crash," Sasuke asked. The other's eyes hardened at the mention of the car crash, although he did notice that the officer hadn't even tried to feign concern for him. He liked that. What he hated was liars.

"Not much," replied Naruto, his voice even. "My dad was driving us to the airport, but something jumped out and spooked him so we crashed."

"We? Who else was in the car?"

"My mum, Kushina. We were moving because of my dad's job." Sasuke nodded, he'd read that much in the file, but somehow, hearing it from Naruto made it make more sense.

"How did you get so wet?"

"Huh?" Naruto looked down at himself. "Oh. It was raining." Sasuke was slightly surprised at such a short reply, but he said nothing of it and instead stood up and patted the blonde on the head.

"C'mon. Time to go see what's going to happen to you," the raven said, indicating the office behind Naruto. He nodded and got up off the bench. Standing, he was almost as tall as Sasuke, though his hair made up some of it.

Sasuke walked over to the door of the office and opened it. He held it open while Naruto walked inside, he then followed, lightly shutting the door behind him.

Inside the office it was chaos. Papers were being shifted here and there, a phone and many other mobiles were ringing off the hook. People were running to and fro getting other papers printed and signed. It was truly mayhem.

Sasuke lead Naruto toward the back of this massive room that held many offices that were dived by just a wall. At the back of the room were a series of doors that lead to more, smaller offices that actually had real walls. These were for the superior.

Stopping in front of the door in the middle, Sasuke briskly knocked on the door and waited to be admitted.

After a few moments the door opened, revealing a young lady dressed in a maids outfit, complete with feather duster. She had long, dark purple hair that was cut just above her pale eyes.

"Oh, Hinata," Sasuke said as he saw her. "Is Kakashi in?"

"Y-yes," the girl stammered. Hinata glanced over Sasuke's shoulder to see who the blonde youth behind him was. When she saw him, she gasped.

"Naruto?!" She looked deathly pale.

"Huh?" Responded Naruto. "Oh, I know you. You sit behind me in Biology, right?"

Blushing immensely, Hinata only nodded, not trusting her own voice, Sasuke mused. He coughed waking Hinata out of her daze and reminding where she was.

"Ah, oh, sorry," she stuttered as she made way for the two of them to enter. Inside this office, Captain Kakashi's office to be exact, the atmosphere was much calmer though still a tad hectic. In the centre of the room was a large desk with mountains of paper a top it. Behind the desk was a large book case with many book of questionable maturity. This was Kakashi Hatake's office.

In the chair behind the desk sat the man himself. Kakashi looked up at Sasuke and Naruto's entrance.

"Yo."

Ignoring the greeting, Sasuke strode forward and examined the files on the desk. He picked up one particularity large manila folder and flipped it open. Inside were pictures of the car crash. Bits of car and broken glass were strewn all over the place. He turned a page. The next was worse.

Sasuke snapped the folder closed and looked up as Sakura slipped in the door, carrying yet more manila files to his dismay.

"Kakashi." The grey haired officer looked up from his desk.

"Oh," he said, "right." Kakashi turned to Naruto. "You're Naruto Uzumaki, right?"

The blonde nodded, slightly intimidated by so many law enforcers in the same room.

"Now," Kakashi continued, "here's the problem." He flipped open another file and looked at its contents. "You have no living relatives."

Sasuke looked up at this and Sakura sidled up to him.

"Sounds like someone I know," she whispered in his ear. Sasuke flinched and moved away.

"Shut it," he replied.

At this exchange, Kakashi raised an eyebrow, but said nothing of it, and instead continued with his briefing with Naruto.

"So when it all comes down to it," Kakashi said, "You're going to have to stay with one of the officers here before we can find somewhere to put you." Naruto twitched at the word 'somewhere' but said nothing. "Sasuke."

"Yes sir."

"You're going to be Naruto's temporary legal guardian." Kakashi turned back in his chair and continued what he had been doing before.

"What? Why me?"

"Why?" Kakashi said, looking up again, "Because I said so." The man looked down again, causing Sasuke's temper to rise considerably.

"Fine," Sasuke said, scowling. He turned back from the table and opened the door. "Let's go, Naruto."

"Ah, oh, right," Naruto said, quickly following. The door shut behind them and Sakura rounded on Kakashi.

"KAKASHI!"

"What?"

"AHHH!" The girl slammed the table in frustration. This lead to a one-sided argument. In the corner Hinata smiled as she thought back at Naruto, a light pink blush on her cheeks.

"Naruto-kun..."
