Fire Daimyo Palace (Night of the Kyuubi's attack)
Sitting in his private office off of his bedroom sat the Fire Daimyo Masanori Daisuke second son of the late Fire Daimyo Akihiko Daisuke who passed in his sleep at the age of seventy-four. Masanori only became the Daimyo of Fire country when his brother Ichirou passed him the title knowing he could not be a great as leader as their father as his younger brother could. Masanori respected his brother greatly for his skills with a sword an his tactical mind, Ichirou knew early on that ruling Fire country is something he could never do for he had no patience for frivolous politics of the court. Ichirou was a military man and as such knew the throne was no place for him, but his brother Masanori who he believed some times to be a identical copy of their late father. Masanori unlike his brother flourished in court politics were a mere game to him.
Masanori and Ichirou were trained in the shinobi arts when they weren't training they were being taught arts, grammar, sciences, languages, geometry, astronomy music and other things that any royal should need. They were shaped to be well rounded and well read individual of the royal family. Both sons flourished greatly in different aspects of their studies, Ichirou showed great promise in the shinobi arts as well as horseback riding, hunting, tracking and strategy. While Masanori was a prodigy in politics, espionage and etiquette. But here he is at the age of twenty-six Daimyo of Fire country for less than a day and already neck deep into a very serious issue with Konohagakure no Sato, running his slender hand through his long black hair a habit when he was agitated or nervous.
Standing from his desk holding a unrolled scroll in his right hand pacing around the room as he reads the report his spymaster left for him. Grumbling under his breathe he sends a guard to collect his brother, spymaster and his head of security to his office at once.
"Damn you Hiruzen!" Masanori angrily spat out in a even breathe.
The door opens to reveal a tall redheaded man hair pulled back into a traditional samurai hair style and black an red traditional samurai armor with the Uzumaki symbol in the center of his Dou with the kenji for Tao Tei under it. Upon the back of his dou was the symbol of the Fire Daimyo family which signifies him as part of the royal family. On the man's back was a Naginata much larger than normal, it's blade was pure black chakra metal while the sharp edge of the blade was blood red. Near the hilt in the center was a single circle looking much like a eye closed, the pole was made from wood from the tree's that the shodaime hokage used to fight the biju making it a formidable weapon to use against Shinobi and kunochi's alike.
"You summoned me brother? What could be so important that you pulled me from training my apprentices?"
"Ah gomen Rou-Nii I just received word our cousin Kushi-Nee gave birth to a healthy baby boy but-" he was swiftly interrupter by his over excited brother.
"Kushina-Chan gave birth! That's wonderful news brother come let us drink to it, I'm sure our newest cousin will be a strong addition to the Uzumaki clan." Boisterous loudly at the prospect of the Uzumaki clan regaining numbers.
"Ara Ara Ichirou-sensai I don't believe Masanori-sama was finished speaking." Spoke a softly voice sounding behind him leaving him pouting slightly like a child.
"Bubuzuke! Don't erect Ichirou-Sensai like that!" shouted a loud boisterous voice that left Masanori's ears ringing for a few moments.
Behind Ichirou stood two tall blond women no older than twenty years old, the one who spoke with a soft voice was Shizuru Fujino-Kuga heir to the Fujino clan and apprentice to Ichirou in the art of naginata. She wore a similar outfit to her master but her's were violet and red, her clan symbol in place of the Uzumaki one and Hydra instead of Tao Tei in kenji, her naginata's blade was purple with red sharp edge. She had long blond hair, blood red eyes much like the Sharingan. She much reminded her master of his younger brother. Which explains why she and Nori-chan got along so well. Next to Shizuru was Haruka Daisuke niece to Masanori and daughter of Ichirou very much a copy of his brother minus the blond hair of course. Haruka has a exact same armor as her father just different color, instead of black an red her's is pea green and royal blue. But unlike her father and Shizuru she had no skill in Naginata she uses a large ball and chain mace. She's proven she is proficient at both attacking an defending with it, given the round the clock repair crews he keeps on staff for when she spars.
Sighs remembering when Shizuru and Haruka first met and the gigantic hole in the east training ground. They were each other rivals according to his niece but they were a deadly tag team, but it still amazes him to this day how his brother's wife is able to handle theses two is behind him.
"Yes thank you Shizuru-chan, Haruku-chan please there is no need to yell. And I believe the word you are looking for is correct not erect. But as I was sa-" once more interrupt.
"That's what I said!" Yelled Haruka.
Sighs inwardly and continues to speak as if nothing was said.
"But I received a report from my spymaster informing me that Kushi-Nee and her child was attacked. Yondaime intervened was able to save her son but Kushi-Nee was taken. Then the kyuubi showed up an started attacking."
Passes the scroll to his brother allowing him to read the rest. Accepting the scroll he reads the rest of the report. Anger boils in him at what he reads then passes it to his daughter and his apprentice.
"This can't be correct brother? How could this happen? How can Kushina and her son be dead? How could the Yondaime let this happen? If that bastard wasn't already dead I'd have marched there an killed him my self!" seethed Ichirou as he paced his brother's office.
Haruka was seething as well her little cousin and older cousin dead, she was so excited when Kushi-Nee sent word that she was expecting she idolized her cousin. The prospects of training her little cousin now dashed into the rocks by a biju their family carried in them as a host.
Shizuru on the other hand unraveled the crushed scroll handed to her by Haruka and read it slowly spotting little oddities here an there in the report then looks to Masanori-sama with a questioning look which he nods to her in acknowledgment he to having picked up on the oddities within the report, which is why he had summoned his brother.
"Ojou-sama you sent for us?" came a even voice from the open door.
A small man stood in the door, short black hair styled in a undercut, narrow intimidating dull gray eyes with dark circles under them with a deceptively youthful face. He is quite short but hidden by his captain's armor he is well-developed physique from years of hard training. Rivai Akkaman is only know to have only two expressions frowning or nothing at all, he has a extremely calm demeanor which works in his favor making it difficult for enemies to read him. He is the youngest shinobi to ever become captain of the Twelve Guardian Ninja of the Fire Daimyo. His appearance makes him seem young but he is wise beyond his years. Next to him is a woman with short reddish-brown hair hazel eyes hidden behind inverted square glasses an a angelic face is Yukino Kikukawa fiancee to Haruka Daisuke and his spy master.
"Yes Rivai-kun, Yukino-chan it's the report Yukino-Chan delivered to me earlier from the report of the attack of Kyuubi no kitsune on Konoha. I and Shizuru-chan have spotted a few oddities in the report which I am sure Yukino-chan has picked up on before she gave me the report. It seems someone from Konohagakure has tampered with this report. What they changed or left out is still a mystery to me, but I do know that this isn't all of it. I -" his Spy master cuts him off.
"Sir I've gotten another report from our spy in Konohagakure, she said that the Yondaime died in battle along side Kushina-sama sealing the Kyuubi into a new born child. My spy couldn't get a lot of info with how high alert the ninjas of the village are with a great deal of their military killed in the onslaught of kyuubi's attack. My spy did manage to find out that seal they used to seal kyuubi was of Uzumaki make." spoke Yukino in a calm soft voice.
"Kushi-Nee did really die after all if she helped the Yondaime seal Kyuubi. And knowing how high on emotions Konoha is right now I would wager my entire collection of Naginata that, that child will be on the receiving end of their emotions. Poor kid." Ichirou said with a gravel tone of voice.
Rivai seeing the whole picture of the situation with a very analytical mind spoke up after Ichirou spoke.
"Ojou-sama I suggest we send a small detachment of troops to shadow the child. Clearly this child could not consent to what happen to them, so they should not be the scapegoat of the village's emotion. I think fifteen or twenty should be enough, they could pose as a clan looking for a place to rebuild at. With the war going on in Kirigakure we could say they came from there."
Masanori thought over what his captain of the twelve guardian ninja proposed, finding no flaws in it. Quickly thinks over who to send knowing they have to extremely loyal and highly skilled. Walks around his desk sitting down in his chair thinking as the rest in the room spoke among each other tossing back ideals an what now.
"Ara Ara What if Natsuki and I pose as the clan heads of this clan? After all Ichirou-Sensai always said I remind him of his brother, Haruka-chan can become a Jounin-Sensai possibly even get to train the child. Natsuki would possibly join the Anbu program with her skill in tracking and long range fighting." Shizuru offered up to the room to get their thoughts on it.
"I see the merits of you leading this "clan" Shi-chan, Ruka-chan becoming a sensai and Natsuki an anbu but we still need twelve more to else could we send that we know can get the job done?" Ichirou spoke with he adopts a thinking pose.
Loud scraping of metal against stone alerts everyone to Masanori sitting or more like now standing at his desk. Masanori completely oblivious to the stares he is on the receiving end of as he hands a scroll with names on it to his guard outside the door sending them off to collect the people. He turns back around to face the room after the guardsmen darts off to complete his task.
"I believe I've filled the other twelve spots for this detachment. Everyone please have a seat while we wait for the rest to show up, then we can get this mission under way. Yukino-chan could you send for a messenger bird and our forger please believe we need to get the paper work finished as soon as possible." Masanori said feeling much calmer now as his emotions are now back under control.
He walks back to his chair an sits down writing a letter of summons to Danzō shimura stating his presences is requested at the Fire Daimyo Palace in the capital of fire country in three days time or face punishment. Once done he rolls it up putting his seal on it an sets it aside writing another letter to the Hokage informing him informing him that his niece shall be having her wedding in Konoha and will also be joining the shinobi ranks. Also writing that she will be traveling with a clan from water country which he has granted asylum to personally. After writing theses scrolls and was placing his seal on them Yukino returns the forger once informed what he needs to make leaves an quickly gets to work on his newest assignment. The messenger waits quietly for the scrolls then heads to the forger to wait for the papers he needs from him before setting off. Masanori turns and addresses everyone while thanking Yukino.
"Now that is done the others that I shall be sending should be walking through the doors right now.'
Just as he said there was a knock at the door, the requested people filed into the room. Twelve different individuals lined up into two rows behind the people seated all standing to attention.
"You requested us Ojou-sama?" Spoke tall redheaded girl with a very well endowed chest.
"Yes Mai-san I called you all here together to inform you of a mission you will be undergoing and why you are. Thank to Yukino-chan we have been informed My cousin Kushina Uzumaki was killed along with her new born son. And that the kyuubi had escaped the seal on her, then once freed attacked the village of Konohagakure killing shinobi and civilians alike. Before the kyuubi could do any further damage to the village the Yondaime Hokage gave his life sealing the biju into a new born child."
He pauses allowing that information to sink into their minds before continuing knowing that hearing some of the news he as said is quite hard to take in.
"I am sure you will see that the new born child was given a great burden to shoulder. And I am also sure you can see how the village will react to this news and how they will react to the child if they ever found out it holds the kyuubi within it sealed away. For the child safety and for Konoha I am sending you along with my niece Haruka, her fiancee, Shizuru and her wife to the village. You will pose as a clan given asylum from the war brewing in Kiri right now. Haruka and her fiancee will not be part of the clan since Haruka is already known to Konoha, there for Haruka will be going to Konoha with Yukino for their wedding and will be living in the village to oversee from the outside."
"What?! Uncle how dould you!" shouted Haruka at the news her marriage was to be held in Konoha.
"Could Haruka-chan" Said a blushing Yukino.
"That's what I said!" you can guess who said that.
"Now now Haruka." Haruka's father said hoping to calm his child down. "I'm sure your uncle has a good reason for this."
Ichirou gives his brother a glare meaning pain if there wasn't a good reason. A large sweat drop appears behind his head as his brother's glare shakes his head an sighs.
"It's so that we can get you implement into the village fast as possible and so you can also pull Yukino-chan's spy out of the village with out anyone noticing. I'm sure Chie-san wishes to reunite with her wife after being away a few years. And since Yukino-chan is going to be in the city I need her second in command to run the spy network here for me to keep me up to date. Now moving on."
He clears his throat taking a serious expression on his face.
"Squad leader for this detachment is Shizuru Fujino-Kuga and her wife shall be second in command. The forger is already working on your background an clan history. Now the reason I've selected you is very simple. You are from our HIME corps, you've all trained together, work together even live together making you possibly the only choice for this and can sell it. You all are in my brother's division making this much easier as well. Miyu Greer will be your blacksmith of the clan since "your clan" will be based on weapon and armor smithing for ninjas and since she is our top smith here. Next is Akane Higurashi our tonfa specialist she'll being joining the ranks as a kunoichi. Mai Tokiha role will be ninjutsu specialist and medic-nin. Reito Kanazki will be head merchnt of the clan which means he can get information from the civilians with out them being wiser. and Mikoto Minagi, Nao Yuuki, and Shiho Munakata will be joining the shinobi academy. Yes Yes I know I know they're older than the academy kids by a few years but for this they will pull this part off perfectly. Since they will be playing triplets to Mai and Reito. No arguements."
Takes a deep needed breathe an allows this information to sink into them before continuing.
"Midori Sugiura will join the shinobi ranks as a Jounin-Sensai an hopefully get Mikoto, Nao and Shiho as a team. Yukariko Sanada will act as the clan's priestess and Mother to Miyu and sister to Midori. Fumi Himeno will be a servant to the clan and keep the grounds of the clan compound. Meaning she will be your security team along with Mashiro Kazahana who will act as Akane and her husbands child. Akira Okuzaki shall be the assassin specialist of the clan. Last member of this team will be Yoko Sagisawa who will join the village as a doctor. Your all significant others will be joining you on this mission to act as the civilian side of the clan. You all will be leaving with Danzō once he arrives to make a deal with him. Any questions?"
He looks at the newly named clan seeing them all accepting their roles, seeing a few disagreeing but accepting them. A hand shoots up in the back revealing none other than Mashiro having a question."
"Excuse me Ojou-sama but what will our clan name be? And is the missions parameters, how long will this mission take?"
Mashiro questioned always having preferred to know all the details of a mission she was being sent on to ensure she had a plan for every possible outcome.
"The clan you will be pretending to be is the Kaguya clan from Land of Water. We manage to rescue three women one of them having a son along with Zabuza Demon of the bloody Mist who had a small child with him as the rest of the clan lay siege to Kirigakure. Which I'm sure you know was unsuccessful and know that Zabuza had attempted to kill the Mizukage as well an failed. I've granted all of them asylum, the mother and her child are both of Kaguya bloodline which are both active in them. I've arranged for Zabuza and the mother who should be walking through those doors to marry fearing that the counsel of Konoha would enact the CRA on them."
Once the words left his mouth his mouth in walked a petite woman no taller than 162 centimeters(1), pale skin, long platinum blonde hair with bright jade eyes with delicate facial features. Two small scarlet dots sit in the center of her forehead just above her eyebrows. She wore a knee-length simple black battle kimono with red trim, red flame designs trimmed the end of the sleeves an the kimonos end. On the back of the kimono was the Kaguya clan symbol in gold inlay. Standing next to her on the left was a small child clearly her son that was mentioned before they entered as if being a exact copy of his mother wasn't a good enough indicator of their relation. He wore a simple outfit consisting of a loose pale purple shirt, black pants cut off around mid-calf, bandages wrapped around his ankles with a somewhat large purple rope-like belt tied in a inverted bow round his waist and lastly a pair of traditional shinobi sandals. On the boy's left was a small girl about the same age long black hair, pale skin and large, dark-brown eyes much slender than the boy on her right. She shies away behind the boy from all the attention. Wearing a pink sleeveless kimono with pale red edges and decorated with small ice blue snowflakes which went down to her ankle. On her waist was a simple ice blue obi tied in a bow, her hair tied into a loose ponytail at the nape of her neck to gave her a adorable look.
In her arms held to her chest was a medium size pure white polar bear with bright icy blue eyes. On her left was a man who stood at 183 centimeters(2) and noticeably muscular man with pale skin, short spiky black hair, brown eyes and small eyebrows. Bandages covered the lower half of his face and neck leaving only his eyes visible. Under his mask, he had a relatively narrow jawline and jagged-teeth a trait shared with all the swordsmen of the mist. On his head was a Konoha forehead protector positioned sideways, he donned his signature black sleeveless skin tight muscle shirt, with a Konoha Jounin flak jacket over top of it, mimetic wrist-warms extending up to his elbows, black baggy pants with matching mimetic leg-warmers. On his back was kubikiribocho which is easily identified by the two cut outs on the blade, circle close to the top and a semi-circular one nearer to the handle, aptly fitting the sword's purpose of decapitation. The latter notch allows a strap to be wrapped around the weapon making it easier for the user to carry. With the blade being identified meaning the wielder could be none of other than Zabuza Momochi whom back the blade hangs off of.
Behind them were two teenage girls the tallest standing at the same height as Zabuza himself. She has long dark blue hair with a yellow band, her eyes light blue with pale skin with two scarlet dots in the middle of her forehead showing she is a Kaguya. She resembles the first woman who is married to Zabuza possibly her younger sister. First thing everyone noticed is her outfit is a battle kimono fashioned much like a Miko attire. A pair of dark blue mixed with purple Hakama(3), a pale purple haori(4) with the Kaguya clan symbol on the back, wrapped around her waist was a dark blue sash belt, she wore black open toed shin high shinobi sandals. But what caught everyone's attention was a large Yumi, clearly showing she was a master of kyujutsu(5). Second only to fuinjutsu as being the hardest shinobi art to master, so if this girl was able to master it she would be a force to reckon with, even without Shikotsumyaku bloodline but if she had it. Dear god this girl would command the battlefield to her will.
Many of the rooms started to get a bit nervous seeing how this girl could be a problem not including the other two girls or Zabuza but if all of them combined this was a deadly combo. Knowing Kaguya owned the battlefield with their bloodline but now a Kaguya that favored Kyujutsu was a deadly opponent to face. After looking to their Daimyo wondering if he was mentally sound or not cause this was turning way past over kill to damn near telling Konohagakure its days were numbered. Kaguya's were not known to be well tempered clan. Mostly being described as extremely savage, battle-hungry, fearless and highly reckless. If not out right insane or delusional on the battlefield.
The girl next to her was around the same height as the first one to enter if not a inch or two shorter. This girl gives off a innocent timid shy girl vibe to everyone in the room, a small squeak from her in what could only be called by everyone in the room as the sweetest voice everyone had ever heard. Promptly hides behind the taller girl whose hand she is holding. She has very long honey blond hair tied with a red ribbon at the middle of her back to keep it from getting in her way. Her eyes are a bright purple color filled with innocent and life making her seem childlike in a manner. The outfit she matches the second girls out fit but instead of dark blue an purple it was red an white very much a traditional miko outfit.
"Everyone I would like to introduce to you Umeko Kaguya, her son Kimimaru Kaguya, her newly adopted daughter Haku Kaguya who was formally Haku Yuki last of the Yuki clan. Her new husband Zabuza Kaguya formally known as Zabuza Momochi demon of the bloody mist and seven swordsmen of the mist. Behind Umeko is her youngest sister Chikane Kaguya master of the Kaguya bloodline and Kyujutsu. Standing next to her is her fiancee Himeko Kurusugawa."
Takes a very much needed breathe before continuing introductions.
"There will be a slight change in plans seeing as Umeko is clan heir, she will retain her title while Shizuru will act in her place in the shinobi counsel. Allowing Umeko to run the clan and raise her children til they are either ready or interested in joining the academy then Shizuru will step down of her place in the counsel to allow Umeko to take over. Shizuru will then take a more active role by taking a team as a Jounin-Sensai. Of course her time on the counsel she will report everything to Umeko since it affects her clan and to me as well. Which Umeko has agreed to so graciously." turns round going to his desk pulling a sealing scroll then walks back over to Umeko handing it to.
"In here is about is about Five hundred billion ryo(6) as payment for allowing us to use your clan for this. Also inside this scroll is a few land deeds to farms just south of Konoha and a small chakra metal mine north west of said farms. This should more than be enough payment for this long-term mission. Which I hope is agreeable among you." Turning around again he facing the others as the small Kaguya clan faces each showed shock an surprise as such a large payment that could run all the shinobi villages for years.
"Now to make introductions of who will be posing as other clan members. First we have Shizuru Fujino-Kuga her wife Natsuki Fujino-Kuga, I've already explained Shizuru's job is but Natsuki much like Chikane here is a long range fighter, superb tracker an stealth specialist. Next is Reito Kanazki and Mai Tokiha who will be a married couple in the clan with Mikoto Minagi, Nao Yuuki, and Shiho Munakata acting as triplets to the couple. Reito's job is as merchant of the clan and will work closely with Miyu Greer to sell ninja tools an clothing since Miyu is the resident specialist in smithing weapons and tools of extremely high caliber." Mai will join the Medic-nin and server in the hospital or on the field on missions. While in the hospital she'll be working in conjunction with Yoko Sagisawa who is a doctor so she will pursue a job at the village hospital. She will be married to Midori Sugiura. Mikoto is Reito's younger sister so not much to worry there in that department. Ah! That reminds me."
He turns back to his desk pulling out another scroll handing this one Mai. "This should cover Mikoto's eating habits if not just inform Yukino-chan an she'll have it handle."
Mai nods her head know just how much the small girl could eat.
"Now back to the introduction then there is Nao Yuki is our seduction and assassination specialist as well as a close to mid range fighter. She mostly lure's her targets into traps made of red silk webbing. Mikoto is our Kenjutsu and Taijutsu specialist. She's the smallest of the group and is very comical seeing her lug around her Miroku a black claymore. On that note Mikoto is not allowed even under penalty of death to have anything spicy what so ever. Or pray that if she does that Mai is somewhere near to calm her down, if not I would begin to pray to what ever god you believe in for your soul." He states in a very serious an grave tone.
The Kaguya family blinks owlishly watching the entire room fall silent as they bowed their heads in prayer but Mikoto was munching away happily on a bowl of ramen. Which leaves giant question marks behind their heads at the behavior being shown in front of them.
"Mikoto and Akane are the powerhouse duo of the team. But Mikoto herself is possibly the only person alive I would say who could take on a biju in its unsealed form toe to toe and be barely winded. Of course that's only if you promised her all she can eat food as a reward. Now moving on we have Shiho is our Genjustu specialist along with Yukariko, thou Yukariko will be tasked with being your clan's priestess She'll protect your clan's secret and the secret of this mission fiercely. Then we have Midori Sugiura will be tasked with hopefully getting Mikoto, Nao and Shiho as a team. Midori is very eccentric most the time she specializes in distractions and Chaos. But she is a very heavily weighed in favor of justice, With her large labrys she'll throw the enemies into confusion with how fast she moves around the battlefield. Granted she works extraordinarily with Shiho, Mikoto and Nao in fights. They're great for hit and runs on the battlefield. We have Akira Okuzaki stealth, tracking and assassination specialist. She'll be joining the hunter-nin of the clan an be assuming the role of daughter to Midori and Yoko. Then there's Akane Higurashi she specializes in Taijutsu, tonfa and tracking. She's a good buffer on a defensive team putting her with Mikoto on the field along with Midori will be a devastating combo. Now her husband will be joining along as well as a few others like Mai's brother who is dating Akira. They will be filling in on the role as civilians for the clan."
"Daimyo-sama I just have a question and I apologize for cutting you off, but how are they to pass ass Kaguya's if they don't have our two scarlet dots?" came the soft heavenly voice of Umeko.
"Well considering your entire clan were just wiped out, I do give my condolences. We can just say those with the Shikotsumyaku will have the two signature scarlet dots while those who don't possess it will not have them. Since you have your entire clan's jutsu library, history, medical knowledge and papers it shouldn't be that hard. Oh I forgot"
Masanori turns an bows at his waist to Fumi and Mashiro in a respectful manner.
"Please forgive me for forgetting to mention you both." he spoke in a humble and honest voice conveying his sorrow of his mistake.
A airy giggle reaches everyone's ears as they turn to find the source none other than Mashiro. "You're forgive Ojou-sama we know you meant no disrespect please continue."
Masanori straightens up to look at the two who both smiles an bows back to him in a way to show they accept his apology. Smiles back at them as he turns back to Umeko to finish the introductions.
"These two are Fumi Himeno and Mashiro Kazahana our tag team duo. They specialize in defensive jutsus and sealing. Fumi will be guardian of your clan compound while Mashiro takes the role as the clan sickly child of Akane an her husband. They will be charged with keeping spies and unwelcome guest out of the clan compound. The forger has begun work on their backgrounds and such thanks to your help in providing the much needed information to make them believeable. He should be done by the time Danzō comes for the meeting. I'm sure everyone is tired and that would be all for tonight so I will have guards show you to your rooms. You all can talk an get to know each other in the morning an the few days after as we away his arrival. Good night to you all."
Seeing a dismissal when they see it they all bow an say their good nights to Masanori, one after another as they leave the office some following the guards others heading to their barracks to sleep. Once they're all gone he falls back into his chair sighing deeply hoping this works, left hand reaches up pinching the bridge of his nose. "You can come out now Shizuru, Natsuki. You should know by now I know when you're around."
"Ara Ara you're no fun Masanori-sama. But we'll come out." a thick Kyoto-ben accent spoke with a small pearl of laughter.
"Sorry Ojou-sama you know how Zuru-chan is. Can't tell her no." came the husky timber reply of Natsuki his head tracker.
Chuckling softly "Yes I know Shizuru-chan does make it hard to say no. Now what can I do for you two after being dismissed not even five minutes ago?"
Both stepped out of the shadows as they step into the light walking around from behind him to sit across from him in the chairs. "Well before you called us here for this meeting I had intercepted a shinobi with a blank anbu mask with the word "Ne" in the center of its forehead. He was following the Kaguya clan all the way from Kiri it would seem. The guard detail you sent didn't sense him meaning he was either suppressing his chakra levels or he's extremely welled train for spying. Both are very troubling since he had a Konoha symbol on his back."
Spoke Natsuki in her serious voice which is a complete difference to how she spoke moments before. Clearly understanding that if Natsuki is this serious than this shinobi is of high concern for him. Nodding he turns to Shizuru gaining her attention.
"If Nao hasn't gone to sleep yet wake her up an collect Yukino, Chie, Mashiro and Fumi. Have the shinobi transferred to Gōka seru(7), tell Nao she as the green light for level Hachibi only AFTER Fumi and Mashiro checks him for seals. I get the feeling this shinobi wasn't meant to be detected and if by some rare chance he was I will bet Mikoto's next food bill at a all you can eat buffet he has a built in kill switch. Keep him conscious til he's cleared understood?"
He gives Natsuki and Shizuru his "Daimyo-Mode looks" clearly showing he is taking this just as serious as they are. A pair of in-sync "Hai Ojou-sama!" were heard as they disappear leaving him alone in his office to do as told.
Konohagakure No Sato: Counsel chamber (hour after the sealing)
In the Hokage tower a hour after the kyuubi laid waste to the village sat Hiruzen Sarutobi holding a small bundle in his arms. The said bundle being the reason why he and the counsel were having this meeting instead of focusing on repairing and cleaning up the damages. The Civilian counsel is demanding the "demon" as they see it to death for its crime against the village and for the deaths of their loved ones. He sighs deeply as the shinobi counsel vehemently yells back at the civilians such a demand. The Shinobi counsel all know the child's parentage having been close friends with them and having been told of the child from the mother-to-be.
"That is enough! You will all calm down or face my wrath if you wake the babe up!." He spoke in a dark tone showing he meant business and will act on his threat.
"Now I will not have the child executed for crimes he did not commit. For kami sake he's barely an hour old!" he takes a breathe hoping to calm his emotions. He turns to his old teammates and his friend to see what they have to say on the matter.
Of course no surprise there when Danzō was the first to speak up. "I formally request the jinchūriki be placed under my guardianship to be trained as a weapon for the village." He scowled at his old friend as his eyes darken at the request knowing he would make the boy an emotionless drone. Before he could deny the request Homura spoke.
"I support Danzō's request." Spoken in a calm collected manner.
"I second the request" came a stern but strong voice of none other than his other teammate Koharu.
With both his teammate's backing the request the civilians jumped at the chance with yells of support for the request. Them thinking its a done deal, how sadly their thoughts were going to be crushed so quickly.
"Request denied. The boy will not be in your guardianship nor have any contact with you. In fear of mental and physical well being. We do not need a mentally broken jinchūriki. Now if anyone from the older generation tells anyone from the younger generation about the boy's statues as a jinchūriki will be met with penalty of death. Those who speak of the kyuubi no kitsune or even call the boy a demon shall be met with the same punishment. This is a S-class law all those who break it will be put to death instantly and those who were told regardless of age or if they are civilians or shinobis." he levels a hard glare at each an every single civilian councilmen while leaking small steady amount of killing intent into the air.
The pressure from the slow build up of KI their hokage is leaking has the civilians shaking in their chairs, a few even pissed themselves. While the shinobi counsel found themselves pleased but also starting to succumb to the KI their Hokage was leaking. The only two people in the room not bothered by the KI from the hokage was the child himself who was fast asleep and Shikaku Nara he too was asleep on the desk oblivious to the world around him. Clearly haven fallen asleep when the civilians started making stupid demands. A tan woman with animalistic looks, long spiky, untamed brown hair, vertical slit like pupils, elongated canine teeth an nails with red fang markings on her cheeks spoke up.
"Hokage-sama what do you plan to do with the boy? Does the child even have a name?" came the rough but tired sounding voice of Tsume Inuzuka completely drained from helping fight off the kyuubi an saving civilian from being crushed by falling buildings an trees.
Smirking under his hat hoping she would speak up. "Well Tsume-chan the child does have a name. It's Naruto Uzumaki and I've decided you shall raise him for the time being til I can find a more permanent housing for him."
The outcry was instantaneous from the civilians about how the demon would corrupt the Inuzuka clan. Others screaming out for the child's death for having been given Uzumaki for his surname, thinking it was defiling Kushina Uzumaki's memory. But before any more yells an demands could be made one counsel man a over weight bald man dressed in costly silk kimono slams his hand on the table gaining the attention of the entire room.
"Why would you give that that DEMON Kushina-sama's clan name! It dishonors her sacrifice she and the Yondaime made to stop the beast from destroying our village! We should finish what they started and kill the dem-" Sadly the man would never finish his words as the man's head roles across the table splattering a few of his colleagues in his blood. Blood gushes for a few seconds spraying his clothes an the table in blood before his body falls lifelessly to the ground knocking over the chair. The Civilians were mortified by what just happen while the shinobi jump up an draw their weapons having just noticed the woman standing behind the now dead man. She was dressed in simple black Jūnihitoe with sparrows on it in her out stretched arm held in a firm hold was a long katana that she quickly sheath inside her sleeve seamlessly disappearing from view. She straights up clasping her hands together in side here sleeves as if she did not just kill a man.
"Please excuse me Hokage-sama for the mess I have seen to have made. But I do hate to be kept waiting. Oh where are my manners." she bows at her waist deeply before standing back up with the air of sophistication.
"I am Suzume, personal messenger Sparrow of Lord Masanori Daisuke Daimyo of Fire country. I had pecked at your window for over 20 minutes. Please forgive the intrusion but patience is not one of my virtues in my line of work. I know some of you are wondering, I am a messenger summon, and yes I was here long enough to hear the laws Hokage-sama passed. Which should explain the dead man at my feet. He broke the law that was passed with knowledge of the penalty of breaking it." the newly name Suzume said in a manner with left no room to misinterpret her bored and annoyed tone.
Everyone in the room froze at her title of being the personal messenger summons of the fire Daimyo even more surprising to learn the fire Daimyo knows the Kuchiyose no Jutsu and has a summoning scroll let alone knows how to perform it. Then again they knew next to nothing bout this new Daimyo since the old one hid all information about his children other than his daughter from the world.
"Well then Suzume-san what would Daimyo-sama want with us?" spoken in way as to not offended the summons of their Daimyo least they be at the receiving end of their wrath from Homura.
"I was tasked with giving this scroll to Hokage-sama and to give a scroll of apparence to one Danzō Shimura. And wait for the replies before I am to return to Masanori-sama." she walks around to the front an hands both men their scrolls respectively then walks to a counsel man near the end of the table leveling a glare at him. Which has him jumping out of his seat an into the bloody one, smiling brightly thanking the kind man she sits down waiting quietly giving them time to read their letters.
Hiruzen unrolls his scroll reading it silently before reading it out loud for the counsel chamber to hear since it concerns them.
"Dear Honorable Sandaime Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi and counsel I am sure you have all met Suzume-chan by now. I apologize for the timing of this considering you have much to do since news have spread of the kyuubi attack on the village. You all have my deepest condolences to you at all you have lost. But I am writing this scroll to inform you of group that I have granted Konoha citizenship to which I'm more than sure won't be questioned once you learn of them. The group that I have granted this boon to is what remains of the Kaguya clan of Kirigakure no Sato. Their clan heir well clan head now had asked for asylum from a group of my guardsmen I had sent to collect a item from a boarder village of Kirigakure. Luckily I had sent my Niece with them for experience in the field she begged to go an see the village having not really gotten out much.(total fucking lie that they bought hook line and sinker) She having heard their plea granted their request and brought them straight to the palace after retrieving the item they were sent for. That was about a week ago, before I granted their asylum and citizenship I had to meet them personally and thought it over seriously. Only a few possess the clan's Kekkei Genkai, thou those are easy to spot with the two scarlet circles on their forehead. They are the last survivor of the clan and most are young couples with children. But that's not all my Niece Haruka wishes to join the shinobi force and also have her wedding in Konoha with in six days time. I'm sure Konoha will be able to handle such a event. Do not worry of the repairs to the village I've already dispatched four dozen of my personal construction crews along with two hundred and fifty billion ryo to help cover the repairs funeral for the village and to help pay for the items needed for the construction of the Kaguya's clan compound and my niece's wedding."
Hiruzen pauses for much needed breathe while stunned that their Daimyo was giving them so much help in their time of need and giving them a boon to their military power that they lost. Even with only a few possessing the Kaguya's famed bloodline that would be more than enough to make others think twice about attacking Konoha in a weaken state that she is in. Similar thought sprung up around the chamber unbelieving their Daimyo would do such a thing as his father was to scattered brain to even think of something like this without being told to. Danzō nearly had a heart attack at hearing the new Daimyo sent him a scroll. Of course he couldn't read his just yet as he was curious to what was in the scroll given to Hiruzen. At hearing what was told thus far his heart almost failed him, Konoha was being given the most fearsome clan next to the Uchiha, Senju and Uzumaki's was like someone telling him he was now the Hokage. His thoughts of future plans to take one of the Kaguya for his root anbu were put to a halt as Hiruzen starts back up again.
"My niece has requested she be housed to live with the Kaguya clan as I have entrusted them with her and her fiancee's safety. I have sent plans of how much land is to be given for the Kaguya compound, compound designs which were designed by the clan head. I've added my own touch to it by adding a medium size house to the left of main house for my niece. So she and her fiancee have their privacy. Why I entrusted my niece's well being to a clan I barely know is simple. One of their members manage to beat my Niece in a spar that shut her up for over five hours. A feat of enormous impossibility I once thought could never happen. Which prompted a rivalry and friendship between said clan member and my niece. Suzume-chan has the scrolls with the plans, ryo and details of the wedding. As for my personal crews they will be station permanently in Konoha and I will be paying for their services so the village will never have to worry about it. Oh one last detail that is of great importance to you and to the well being of the village. Mikoto Kaguya is never and I mean NEVER to be given anything of any degree of spicy. Even if your life is on the line or your family or even your ability to have sex. DO NOT GIVE HER ANYTHING SPICY!. If she some how manages to eat anything spicy I will personally pray to kami-sama for your soul and pray for the village to not be to irreparably damaged. You have been warned please heed it."
The last part left large sweat drops on the back of their heads around the room curious as to why this one member was not allowed spicy food but hearing "irreparably damage to their village" they swore to never want to find out.
Danzō seeing that was the end of the message he unrolls his own an reads it silently then rolls it back up putting in his sleeve. Lifts his head up to see the room looking at him clearly curious about what the Daimyo wanted with him. Seeing no other choice but to disclose the contents of the scroll.
" Our Daimyo simply wrote a letter of summons for me to appear with a group of our shinobi a mix of Jounin, Chunin and anbu to escort the Kaguya clan and his niece to Konoha. And he wishes to discuss some matter with me dealing with Konoha knowing the Hokage can not come to discuss." he spoke in a even tone.
"Hmm I will send weasel, neko, lion and boar as the anbu guards. Might Gai, Mikoto Uchiha, and Hizashi Hyuuga as the Jounins with Kurenai Yuhi, Anko Mitarashi, Konan and Yahiko as chunins. Inu please go inform them of their missions to meet at the east gate at 0600 sharp." Hiruzen order then turns his attention back to the counsel room.
"I believe that will be all for now. Tomorrow I will hold a village announcement to inform everyone of the laws I've passed and of the good fortune our Daimyo has bestowed upon us. Also send for the cleaning crew to clean up the mess. Meeting dismissed" Hiruzen blast his KI one last time to ensure his warning is clear.
The aged Hokage stands from his chair walking to the Inuzuka clan head passing her the child then out the door to his clan house. Of course he was thinking of ways to possibly place Naruto in permanent guardianship to the Daimyo niece, hoping the village and the elders would think twice if Naruto was under the protection of the Daimyo. But sadly news of what Naruto held was already spreading throughout the village due to Jounins and Anbu having been there when the Hokage found Minato and Kushina dead on the ground near Naruto with the seal still visible. Instantly the civilians blame the child thinking it was the demon in human form
