Prologue

The leader of the Hyuuga clan sighed tiredly and ran his fingers gently through his hair, only to grip it just as the ends of his dark hair slipped from between his fingers. "Konohagakure", as the new ninja village had been named, was being built by Senju Hashirama and Tobirama, the two brothers. Hashirama would become the first leader, as decided by a fight between he and Uchiha Madara in what would become "The Valley of the End".

He had a decision to make, one that would decide the fate of the Hyuuga clan for years to come. His clan could join Konohagakure and become ninja in the village, something that suit their ability or they could break off from the new village and follow a different path. The Bakyugan would give the Hyuugas an advantage over other ninja, but the Uchiha's Sharingan would also be advantageous to them. There was no love lost between their two clans, despite claims that they had once belonged to the same group. Having both clans in one village would cause animosity between the two groups, greater then what already existed and if they, two powerful clans, couldn't work together for the sake of the village, Konohagakure would be weakened. His clan, his descendents would suffer as a result. He shivered at the thought of what would happen to the clan.

The leader of the Hyuuga clan smiled suddenly. He would present his plan to the elders, and if they didn't, he could always throw their words back in their faces.

The three elders of the Hyuuga clan, Senju Hashirama, Senju Tobirama, and the newly appointed head of the Uchiha clan watched the Hyuuga's head with careful eyes.

"I would like to form a treaty with Konohagakure once a formal government has been set up within it," the Head of the Hyuuga clan said confidently. "I do not wish for the Hyuuga Clan to join Konohagakure and become ninja for the village, but rather I would like to form a caravan that travels within Hi no Kuni." The faces of the clan elders were enraged. The Senju brothers were blank, but one could almost see the gears turning in their minds. The Uchiha's new leader, however, was dumbfounded, it was obvious that he had not expected this outcome.

"Hyuuga-san," Hashirama began. "This is a fair request, and we will create the treaty as soon as possible. I wish you luck in this venture and should you ever wish to join Konohagakure in the future, the offer will still be open."

The Hyuuga's head thanked him and then took his leave. He let out a silent breath of relief, that could have been much worse.

On another note, this was inspired by MKofGod's Holding Destiny With Your Own Two Hands in which Naruto and his friends go back in time and start a caravan. The last few weeks I've been thinking about how members of a caravan may have affected the lives of Naruto and Sasuke and since I didn't want to insert OC's I've decided to use the Hyuuga's as a replacement.
