"Thank you." He said quietly to her, taking the bottle. He felt good about his training today, maybe he wouldn't be too bad off. An ANBU appeared beside him him, looking down at him. "Alex, Lady Hokage has summoned you." He said before he disappeared again. 

(I just realized Maru wasn't there! XD I was like... somethings... missing?) 

James frowned at her but didn't say anything when he came up to Alex. "Ok." He said to her. "Are you sure Alex?" James asked, putting a hand on Alex's shoulder. "Positive Otouto." Alex smiled hollowly. He appeared outside of Tsunade's office. He threw his chakra out in from of him and knocked on the door. "Enter." Tsunade greeted from the other side and Alex stepped inside.

"Alexander." She said, Alex threw his chakra out. "My Lady." He bowed, her hair falling around his face when he stayed in that position. "Alexander... I understand that you've lost your eyes sight... and seeing you now proves that fact." She told him. Alex stayed with his posture bowed. "Alexander, a bind ninja is useless to me, and you know this." Alex blinked, trying desperately not to show any emotion but wasn't sure if he was succeeding at this or not. "Let alone a Blind ANBU..." she continued. Alex nodded once. "Alexander, I'm dropping you from the program. All of the other ANBU will be notified momentarily. I'm sorry." Alex nodded. "Yes, my lady." He said, turning to leave.

Alexander ended up on the Hokage Faces again, laying back and feeling the sun as he soaked it up, his hands behind his head.

A hawk few threw the trees and landed on Eric's outstretched arm. He took the message from it leg and read it, folding it and putting  back on and sending the bird away. "Alexander was dropped from his postion in the ANBU ranks." He informed James sadly as the hawk made its way to the next ANBU.

Shizuya woke up and looked around.He then started to wail and cry loudly.

James sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose between his fingers and closing his eyes.

-

The Hawk landed in the window sill of the apartment and screeched loudly, flapping his wings trying to get attention.  He looked around the room.

Maru woke up and saw the hawk.He then wrote a note to James."Take that to James.He's with Eric"Maru told the Hawk.

Shizuya kept wailing,wanting James to come get him.

The hawk sckwawked at him, flapping his wings before turning to go back to Eric and James.

-

"I can't believe this is happening..." James said, looking up as the Hawk came back. Eric allowed it to land on his arm. "Note from Maru." Erc announced, throwing a small paper at him.

-

Alex said up and tried to concentrate chakra so his hand but gasped and clenched his teeth as the sudden and agonizing pain that shot through it instead. He gripped it tightly, it was a result from not having enough chakra and then trying to force a Chidori. "Gah!" He gasped, squeezing his arm. 

James frowned at the note and put it away. "I'm going to go check on Tsumai and Shizuya." James told Eric. "Could you try and find Alex? He's probably on the -" ''Yeah, I know where he goes, just go." Eric said. James nodded and appeared in the apartment. He went straight to the crib and picked Shizuya up. "Hey buddy, I'm sorry i wasn't here." e told him softly, patting his back.

Eric appeared beside Alex and was immediately worried. "Alexander!" He barked, dropping beside him. Alex didn't respond, it felt like his arm was being ripped out of his socket slowly. "My-!!" He gasped again. "What did you do?" Eric asked, looking at Alex's arm. He pressed down on a pressure point and Alex started to calm immediately. Breathing hard, "what did you do?" Eric asked again. "I tried to use... chidori." "Damn Alexander..." Eric sighed.  

James went to check on Tsumai, "You ok?" He asked, bouncing Shizuya slightly.

-

Eric loked at Alex for a moment, "Come on, kets get you back to the apartment." He took Alex hand but Alex didn't try to stand. "Alexander?" "Eric... call me Alex or Lexi or whatever you want to call me. Just don't call me Alexander. It makes me feel like you're putting distance between us." Alex explained. "O-ok. Alex, let's go." Eric said again. "Just leave Eric, let me stay here for a little while." Alex said. "No Alex. I'm not going to leave you up here by yourself." Eric argued, not about to leave him there. 

"Please Eric? Don't make me do something I don't want to do right now. Can't you just leave me alone for a little while?" Alex asked, not trying to get free from Eric but waited for him to let go. Eventually he did and Alex put his arm back down. But instead of Eric leaving he at down beside Alex. "I'm not going to leave you up here by yourself, Lexi." He told him. 

(skip to when she's in labor?)

(Okay^^)

Tsumai laid in the hospital,moaning in pain."James?"She asked.
