Chapter 1 - The Truth

Dislamer: I do not own Naruto. If I did then Konoha would be fucked.

The 'demon' twins knew they weren't the Hokage's children. To them it was obvious, so much so it said much about the leaf's compitance. They never gained Minato's wind affinity or looks. It was thought they just favored their mother and it was true, they did favor their mother, but they looked nothing like Minato, not even a smidgen. Yuri had long red hair that extended to her waist, she looked just like her mother. Arashi had naturally white spiked hair (Anime Naruto's hair). The two had extremely strong water and lightning affinities and had darker skin than minato (Darker than Canon Naruto but not to the extent of Fuu or Darui). They both had unlocked their bloodline at age 6. They knew then that they weren't related to the man who was their 'father'. They kept it secret and were secretly happy they weren't related to minato. Their parents had abandoned them at age 4 when there new son was born. This left the twins to the mercies of Konoha's citizens. They both met their respective tenants at age 5 after the demon hunt during the festival for the fox's 'death' (Yin half for Arashi, Yang for Yuri). The twins found friends in their prisoners and were taught by them learning as much jutsu as possible. They both took extremely well to fuinjutsu which their tenants were masters at. They Kyuubi halves couldn't escape due to the Shingami's interference so they taught the twins how to change the seal so they could leave and use their human forms. They couldn't go very far from the seal, a half mile at the most and the seal prevented the halves from joining together. The Kyuubi, before it was sealed, had traveled the world and had often stayed with the Uzumaki who had kitsune blood (The twins are the first Kyuubi containers). The halves called themselves Yami for the Yin half and Jundo for the Yang half. They both had spiky red hair (Cloud Strife's hair but red) and wore ANBU uniforms with Uzu headband around their necks. They took the role of family and often called the twins their Ototo/Imoto (Little Brother/Sister). The halves knew that if Minato found out his firstborns weren't actually his then he might do something rash. They were right as the twins discovered on there tenth birthday.

Age 10, October 10th

Minato had found out. He had acted on his growing suspicions and ordered Tsunade to take a blood sample and run a DNA test. They tested it against his... and it came back negative. He was understandably angry..., but not at his wife. He blamed his children. He had no idea who their father was and since he couldn't hate him, he hated the twins. He called Danzo to his office and finally gave approval for the plan Danzo had been pushing for. The twins would be molded into weapons. Thankfully for the twins they had seen the test results later that day and put theit contingency plans into motion. They knew they needed to flee the village and their only viable option was Kumo. Suna was allied to Konoha, Iwa hated the Uzumaki clan for their part in the 3rd Shinobi War, Kiri was in a civil war currently and the minor villages would turn them over to Konoha. They needed something to bring to the negotiations with the Raikage, besides the documents revealing the truth about the Uchiha massacre. So they stole the Scroll of Sealing (If pre-genin canon naruto can steal it then so can they). It was laughably easy... the ANBU guards were patrolling in unchanging routes and there wasn't any traps on the scroll. They knew that by the time the scroll's theft was reported they would be long gone. They found later that the village had grown lax since the war. When the twins left they literally strolled out the front gates under a simple henge. The gate guards never even checked their passports. They were halfway out of the Fire country when the theft of the Scroll of Sealing was reported. They were just crossing over the border into the Land of Hot Water when their disappearance was discovered. They found it sad that they were scrutinized more by the Hot Water samurai then the leaf's ninja or Fire country samurai. They hurried through the country as word had spread that the 'Namikaze' twins were missing. They passed into Kumo after their passports barely convinced the paranoid Kumo border guards. The twins were secretly pleased that the security seemed way better than the security of their former home. They were impressed with the fact that Kumo was actually hidden like a hidden village should be (Seriously. Everyone knows where Konoha is, even the civilians.). They only reason the found the place at all was because the Kyuubi had remembered it's location.

Age 10, October 15th

Land of Lightning, Just outside of Kumogakure no Sato

"So Kumo is in that valley?" Yuri conferred with her tenant briefly before nodding.

"Jundo says its just inside the valley."

The duo were currently hidden in a cave just outside of Kumo. They knew that the minute they left the cave the village's ANBU would be on them. They only hoped they could express their desire to meet the Raikage and before being imprisoned. The twins steeled themselves and left the cave and started down the path toward Kumo. They could both sense the ANBU around them (The twins are sensors. They believe it's side effect of holding the Kyuubi.).

"They're all around us. There's alot of them, Arashi."

"I know. I count at least a dozen of them. Just keep going."

The twins uneasily continued toward the village. They couldn't understand why the ANBU hadn't pounced on them already. They trudged up the path to a cliff overlooking the village they were looking for.

"Kumogakure no Sato."

The village was beautiful and extremely militant. It was obviously built for defense. It also had three times as many guards as the leaf did and they weren't standing out in the open.

"Will the Raikage even see us?" Arashi shrugged.

"Probably. He'll most likely do almost anything to put off his paperwork." They both knew that every kage hated paperwork.

"Well, let's go. We didn't come here to stare at the village." The duo started down the steep cliff. They were about halfway down when Yuri slipped and fell forward. She would've tumbled down the mountainside if not for one of the Kumo ANBU pulling her back. She smiled gratefully at the her savior and thanked him before continuing down the path carefully. The ANBU realized by her lack of suprise that the duo of strangers knew they were being watched. They sent someone to alert the Raikage that about the pair that apparently wanted to see him. The rest of the ANBU abandoned stealth and opened the gate for the duo before escorting them toward the Raikage tower.

The twins entered the tower and were met by the Raikage's assistant, Mabui, who ushered them into the Raikage's office. The Yondaime Raikage, A, was a huge bear of a man. He radiated power and his kage robes barely covered his massive, muscular frame. He was obviously waiting for them.

"My ANBU tell me you practicality walked up to the main gates and asked to see me. Why?" The duo had decided that Arashi would do the talking since he had the silver tongue of the two.

"Our mother is Kushina Uzumaki. It was believed that we were the Yondaime Hokage's kids. Our 'father' discovered we weren't and was apparently going to allow us to be turned into weapons. We fled the leaf and your the only viable option for us to go to." A was silent for a moment.

"Am I correct in assuming one of you is a jinchuuriki?" The twins shifted uneasily at the question.

"We both have half the Kyuubi sealed into us." The Raikage's eyebrows rose in suprise. He didn't know you could split up the tailed beast.

"I see. Do you have anything else to offer besides your tenants? If I take you I take a big risk."

"I disagree. The leaf couldn't reclaim us if they wanted too. They never recovered from the Kyuubi attack and no one will help them take on another hidden village. Suna is their only ally and they are displeased with the alliance." A noticed how henever associated himself with the leaf. He was grinning internally since he hadn't known of Suna's stance on their ally.

"Even so what can you offer to my village?" Arashi was prepared for this and withdrew the stolen Scroll of Sealing and laid it on the desk. The Raikage recognized the scroll immediately. "Is that what I think it is?" Arashi nodded and placed the documents detailing the Uchiha massacre next to it.

"We also have the Raton bloodline." A hadn't really expected them to have anything else to offer especially not the famed Scroll of Sealing. The last part intrigued him though.

"You said you weren't related to the Yondaime Hokage. Do you know who your father is?" Arashi shook his head sadly.

"We know mom was captured by Kumo at the time so we believe that he is a Kumo nin. We were hoping you would run a DNA test for us." A nodded. He would've ran the test regardless. He did have a pretty good idea who their father was though. An ANBU was sent to have a DNA test set up.

"Well kids. Welcome to Kumo. I'll have rooms set up in the tower for you. Go get the DNA test done." The twins grinned happily and turned to leave but Arashi lingered behind for a moment.

"I'd look at the Kinjustu section of that scroll. Specifically the Shadow Clone jutsu. It should help with the paperwork." A turned to the section curiously after Arashi left. As he read about the jutsu he started grinning.

"I really like those too." The Raikage had finally defeated his greatest enemy, paperwork.

AN: Hope it was okay. I welcome all criticism and ideas. Please feel free to PM to ask questions or suggest ideas. I do have the twin's genin team set up though and it won't change. I'll also try to respond to reviews, so please review.
