The next day, Akihiko woke up and wore his cloak over his all-black clothes. He went out of his room and went downstairs. He found Kurenai and one other chunin from Sunagakure.
"Oh, Akihiko, you're here. Go and call Izumi and follow him to the Kazekage's office. "Kurenai said as she turned her head around to see Akihiko.
"Huh? For the promotion?" Akihiko asked as he rubbed his head.
"Of course. Do you think the Kazekage is going to call you to play a game of shogi?" Kurenai said as she looked at Akihiko.
"Alright, I will be back in a minute." Akihiko said as he went back upstairs while yawning.
As he reached in front of the door, he knocked it.
Knock-Knock
Who's there?
Wrong.
Wrong who?
Wrong, You Are.
[A/N: Sorry about that]

Back to the Story
Akihiko reached in front of the door and knocked it.
Knock-Knock
He waited for a few seconds but he didn't hear any reply so he just decided to go inside using Hiraishin.
…
…
…
Akihiko looked down and saw Izumi who was sleeping peacefully. He shook her body a bit to wake her up but she only responded with,
"Five more, just five more minutes please."
Akihiko shook her more and tried to wake her up gently, "Hey, Izumi, wake up now."
Izumi woke up and rubbed her eyes before saying, "Who woke me up? I was having a nice dream." before remembering that she locked the door last night.
She jumped out of the bed and prepared a stance to start fighting if it was an enemy. Instead of an enemy, she saw Akihiko in his black cloak, black shirt, black pants, black shoes. He had his purple hair tied into a pony tail.
As she saw that it was Akihiko, she relaxed and just greeted Akihiko.
"Good morning Akihiko."
"Good morning. Kurenai-sensei asked me to come and wake you up. We have to the Kazekage office for our promotion."
"Oh, I got it. I will be there in a minute." Izumi said as she opened the locked door and pushed Akihiko out of them room before locking it back. She prepared to change her clothes as she now blushed remembering that she talked with Akihiko wearing her pajamas. However, she shook her head and calmed herself down as she changed her clothes.
-----
After Izumi finished changing, Akihiko, Izumi and Kurenai followed the chunin as they headed towards the Kazekage's office.
As they reached the office the chunin who led Akihiko, izumi and Kurenai to the office said,
"Lord Kazekage, Konoha's genin Akihiko and Izumi Uchiha and jonin Kurenai Yuhi have arrived."
"Alright, you may enter." Rasa's voice sounded from inside the office as Akihiko, Izumi and Kurenai walked in.
"Greetings, Lord Kazekage." x3
Akihiko, Izumi and Kurenai greeted the Kazekage as they entered the room. After greeting the Kazekage, Akihiko looked around to see Han Baga and the jonin instructor of Han Baga's team.
Rasa, the Kazekage said, holding a scroll in his hand,
"From today onwards, Akihiko from Konohakaure, Izumi Uchiha from Konohagakure and Han Baga from Sunagakure are qualified to be a chunin. Akihiko and Izumi Uchiha will need the Hokage's approval to be promoted as a chunin. For Han Baga, I hereby promote you to chunin. Congratulations."
"Thank you Lord Kazekage"
All of them thanked the Kazekage and exited the office. Afterwards, Akihiko, Izumi and Kurenai returned to their inn.
"Both of you, prepare your things. We will be leaving in 20 minutes. I will go and inform the others." Kurenai said as she dashed towards the hospital to call the other genins from Konoha.
-----
[20 minutes later]
Everyone from Konoha who came to Suna could be seen gathering at the gate of Suna. There a woman with wavy black hair and red eyes said as she checked all of them.
"All right, now we will return to Konoha. Your injuries are already healed so don't get left behind."
Everyone nodded and they all started heading towards Konoha.
-----
[2 day later]
A group of ninjas could be seen walking towards the gate of Konoha. The two guards stationed at the gate looked at them before bowing slightly.
They entered the village and the woman with wavy black hair and red eyes said to them,
"Alright, you can all go to your homes. I have to go and report to Lord Hokage."
"Hai, Kurenai-sensei."
Everyone said this and went back to their homes. Akihiko and Izumi went to the Uchiha Compound.
-----
When they arrived at the Uchiha Compound, they saw Kushina and Mikoto sparring against each other. Akihiko and Izumi just waited for them to finish as they sat down.
"Haaah, Kushina, you still didn't lose your touch." Mikoto said as she wiped the sweat off her forehead.
"Same goes for you, Mikoto." Kushina also replied with a smile.
"Yo, long time no see. Izumi and I are both chunins now." Akihiko greeted them as they both turned towards him. Both of them ran towards him and hugged him for a few seconds before they parted.
"I have great news for you. We have a new family member. Dun dun dun~" Akihiko made a special sound effect as he directed both of his hands towards Izumi.
"Heh, told you, Kushina." Mikoto said as she just smiles.
"Yea, you were right."
They all talked about how it happened. After a while, Akihiko finally decided to do some things before he forgot.
-----
Firstly, Akihiko went to the orphanage where he lived in his childhood. He knocked the door of the orphanage and when the door opened, he saw children swarming around him.
"Waaaahh, big bro, are you here to play with us?" "Let's play." "Big bro, are you a ninja?"
Akihiko just smiled as he answered their questions and played with them for a while before the matron came and leaded Akihiko the office of the orphanage.
"Hello, do you need anything?" She asked as she looked at Akihiko and thought that he looked familiar.
"Obaa-san, don't you remember me anymore?" Akihiko said as he chuckled.
"You.... you're Akihiko, right? You changed so much. You were a cute kid back then." She said as she looked at Akihiko.
"Haha, baa-san, I am extremely thankful for you taking care of me and without you taking care of me, I would have had lots of trouble. I would like to make a donation for the orphanage." Akihiko said as he bowed a little as he took out the money pouch he prepared.
The matron opened the pouch and was surprised by the amount. Akihiko donated 100K Ryo to the orphanage.
"Akihiko, this is too much. You don't need to donate this much." The matron said as she tried to give back the money.
"I insist, baa-san. I can earn the money back again. You can use the money to repair the damaged parts of the orphanage." Akihiko said as he pushed the money back towards the matron.
"Alright then. Thank you very much =, Akihiko. I thank you on behalf of the orphanage." The matron said as she bowed her head a little.
Akihiko just smiled and said, "Then, I'll be going, baa-san.". As he walked out the office, he was once again swarmed by the kids.
Akihiko gave the children cookies and promised to come and play with them once a week.
The matron was watching this from the office with a warm smile.

=====
I just wanted to write about the orphanage. Akihiko stayed there for around 5 years, so he should at least donate some money to help the orphanage, that's what I think.
This is it for today.
