Author's Note: Well, I decided to adopt this story from Jay Gonzales. I just couldn't see this much potential of a Story go to waste. I changed it a bit. He put Itachi Uchiha as another person that can infuriate Orochimaru into the lands of hell, but we all know that Itachi is only six years of age; so I erased everything mentioning Itachi Uchiha. As we all know, Kushina died by the Kyuubi's hands, but before that, everybody thought she died from child birth; so I changed that as well.

Disclaimer: I don't Naruto.

This was the most significant, or better yet, joyous event in his life that could possibly happen to someone as dreadful as himself. Orochimaru of the Sanin and missing-nin of Konohagakure, smirked as he slowly grabbed the little bundle of sunshine out from the crib from which it lay. Raising the child high into the air so that it was at arms length from his face, Orochimaru quickly noticed the three whisker marks adorned on each cheek. No doubt the after effects of the sealing of the Kyuubi no Kitsune.

What a remarkable child.

"Is the mother dead?" He asked as his subordinate walked into the room filled with the corpses and stench of the once alive ANBU guards. Fools play for someone of his skill and treachery.

He looked away from the child in his arms and into the eyes of his fifteen year-old subordinate. There'll be hell to pay if she failed the assassination.

She casually tip-toed to see over Orochimaru's shoulder, and nodded as she made funny faces at the now awake baby. "She didn't survive. It's remarkable, really. She was impaled by the Kyuubi no Kitsune, and was still struggling to survive, but finally gave in thanks to Sasori's enhanced poison I slipped into her iv." She continued to make funny faces, but this time added gestures with her hands. "He really is a genius. Sasori, that is."

Funny, if she had complemented his partner of that S-class organization of fools, Akatsuki, on any other occasion, you could bet she'd be on her knees trying to franticly put her intestines back into her stomach. But not today, no, today was a time of celebration. For he had not only kidnapped the son of the Yondaime Hokage, but he had also killed Namikaze Minato's precious wife, Uzumaki Kushina, although she already had one foot in the grave.

How just his name infuriated him. The fact that he took the seat of Hokage from under him and was the pupil of his perverted, idiotic ex-teammate, Jiraiya, made his blood boil on a degree never seen before.

There was only one person that could infuriate him into the lands of hell other then the Yondaime Hokage. Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Sandaime Hokage, also known as the Professor or God of Shinobi.

God of Shinobi? How ironic. There's also another that goes by that title, though it's self-proclaimed unlike Sarutobi, that was earned for the mastery of all the Justus's known to Konohagakure. But that doesn't mean the Akatsuki's leader is not worthy. Quite the contrary actually. It just means that no one has put Pain to the test, and sadly, he'll not be there to witness whoever is unlucky enough to.

Orochimaru's attention was averted to Naruto as he watched him reach out and grab hold of his subordinates hair. The grip looked painfully strong.

"Stop! Stop! Stop! You damn brat!" Naruto giggled as he pulled harder on the girls dark hair with vigor, and to much the dismay of Orochimaru. "You think this is funny brat! Wait until I get my hands on you-!"

"Enough, Guren. Do you want to alarm the rest of the occupants in the Hokage Tower to our activities." Orochimaru said sternly as he pressed a pressure point in Naruto's neck and rendered him asleep. "Come, It's time for us to leave."

Yes, he had to hurry and report in. Unless he wanted to draw suspicion from Sasori and their mysterious leader, Pain.

"Yes, Orochimaru-sama." Guren said miserably as she ran her hand through the unorganized strands of hair for comfort.

It would remain a mystery to the village elders of the where-about of one Uzumaki Naruto for twelve long years.

Author's Notes: Well, this was incredibly short, but it is just the prologue. As you can see, Orochimaru is still in Akatsuki. Next chapter will be a time-skip of about six years, and it'll be longer, that I can guarantee. Bloodline's are already decided, and I don't know if I'm even going to have pairings, but if I do, here are the restrictions: No one from Konoha, and no one older then Naruto by five years. He will be deeply loyal to Otogakure.
