AN: Hey guys! Here's a plot bunny I've had in my head for a while... Thought I would get it out of my head... It is TOTALLY a spin off of my Unexpected History fic.
TELL ME IF YOU WANNA SEE IT CONTINUE..
::::-::::
..They were all gathered in Naruto and Hinata's living room with a with a weird crystal orb sitting as the centerpiece. Team 7 plus one, with only Naruto and Sasuke staring intently at the object (nobody missed the obvious sense of hesitation in the air). Everyone else was naturally confused (well, Kakashi was just bored).
In an attempt to get things started, Kakashi drawled the first spoken words of the evening.
"Soooo... either of you gonna tell us what you've gathered us here for? Or can I leave?"
That seemed to break the boys out of their trance (as his voice always did). He soon joined them in their reluctantce (especially when he heard out the weird thing on the table). Naruto had shoved a single photo in his face as Sasuke began explaining.
"I found this in Kaguya's Palace. After a few tests we were able to determine it can see other dimensions."
Sakura spoke first after that (Kakashi already knowing what came next).
"So, what's got you boys so worked up about it that you would rounds us all up?...Oh, and have Naruto here send the kids out?"
They both turned to her with one reply.
"You'll find out."
They turned back to the orb and very gently placed thier hands on it. After nods of confirmation, they both began channeling chakra into the object.
It didn't take long as they both knew what they wanted to see. Then the scene projected out all around the gathered crowd.
There he was, 16 years old, Fugaku Uchiha. It was night and he was looking out over Konoha, atop the hokage monument with one knee supporting his wrist and the other hanging freely over the edge. His face was clearly upset about something.
Just as he was about about to take another swig of the sake bottle in his free hand (with a few more by his side) he heard a voice that caused him to choke on his drink.
"YO BASTARD! WERE YOU AT!?"
Unfortunately for him, his choking noises gave him away.
"There you are! Been looking everywhere... you drinking?"
When he looked back he saw a face he really didn't need right. She had her head tilted to one side with one eyebrow raised and a smirk on her face.
Kushina Uzumaki, the impossibly loud and extremely hated teammate of his. Just his luck, the bane of his existence had caught him red-handed.
"Oh look at our glorious team leader, slacking off."
Her stance changed to one of superiority and she had smug look. Oh how he hated that look.
"Relax asshole, I just came to tell you we have a mission tomorrow."
He just returned to looking over the village trying to ignore the pest at his side.
"Hn, why are You telling me?"
She let out a tired sigh (which caused him to smirk) and plopped down next to him, much to his chagrin.
To his further irritation, she grabbed one of his bottles (popping the cork as she spoke).
"Apparently, since I hate you so much, it's my job to find you."
She got the bottle open.
"Something about "Team building"..."
(Jazz Hands)
"... or so Shinji says."
She also started gazing across the village. She took a swig... and had to struggle to choke it down.
"Damn, this stuff is strong."
Her discomfort brought him a small sense of pride.
"You found me, I've been told. Now you can get the hell out of here."
After her second drink she turned to him with a slightly irritated expression.
"Okay, what's with you? You're being an extra bastard today."
"Hn, what's it to you?"
"Cause, Bastard, if you show up to the mission a hungover, irritable bitch then I'll be blamed!"
He just sighed and leaned over with both legs dangling. After a few minutes of contemplation he ran hand through his hair. After shaking his bottle (it was his second). He responded.
"The clan is forcing me to marry into the clan."
The redhead spat out her drink in both disbelief and anger.
"So they're just going to force some poor woman to put up with your bullshit!?"
He winced a little at the banshee's volume and responded.
"It is Uchiha clan tradition that the rising clan leader is to marry the strongest Sharingan weilding female member with his age group."
In a rare moment of concern, she noted how miserable his voice sounded.
"Still sounds like bullshit."
"Well what do you know?"
When had they reached their third bottles?
After a few minutes of silence Kushina spoke up again.
"What if we find some other chick for you to marry?"
"I knew you were an and idiot."
"Hey, just listen. If we find and marry you a woman before they force you to... then what can they say? Though it'll probably have to be a ninja chick."
Fugaku stared at her in utter confusion.
"Hey hey now, it's so we can get the Hokage to do the ceremony and then they can't say shit!"
"D-Did you just say something smart?"
"Hey! I can be smart!"
"Hn."
He just took another swig...had he gone through another that quickly? He pointed out one flaw.
"Who would we get to agree to such an absurd plan?"
"Hm, she'd have to be able to deal with you."
"Strong enough for the clan to accept eventually."
"Crazy enough to agree to this plan"
"Be believable in how we met."
"And be of high enough standing for your stuffy family."
A few more drinks, Kushina burst with laughter.
"Y-you know, with the list we've made..."
Fugaku joined in..
"We make it sound like..."
"Your only option.."
"is..."
Then the laughter died a horrible death as they looked at each in realization.
"No..."
"no"
"no"
"no"
After a few moments of silence came a slew of profanity that nobody should hear.
After they both paced back and forth in panick, Kushina stopped first. She had a serious look on her face.
"I expect a lot ramen for this!"
Then she kissed him and walked off.
Then the group in the living room were pulled back into their reality. All of them looking uneasily at each other... then silently returned to their homes.
