Chapter One - Another dream, another nightmare

She screamed.

It was time.

Time for the child to be born.

The child of an Uzumaki

And a Hyuga.

He fled along the road, hoping that she hadn't given birth yet. He turned, to barge into a pink headed shinobi.

"Watch it, Naruto." she snapped.

"Sakura-san, has Hinata-san given birth yet?" he asked.

"No. There are diffculties. She's is having triplets, Naruto. She has given birth to two of them, and the final one is almost out." said Haruno Sakura, as she left the hostipal. Naruto shrugged, and entered, to hear a screaming Hyuga Hinata.

His wife.

Hinata breathed slowly, and pushed, yet that final triplet would not be born. The first had been a boy, with golden hair, and deep blue eyes. The second, another boy, with golden hair, and lighter blue eyes. The final, would be a girl, with purple hair and Hyuga eyes, lavender-blue eyes, but these with pupils.

She pushed again, as Naruto entered.

And, that final child, that little girl, was born.

The three children were named Hatori, Mamoru and Sorano.

All three children inherited the Hyuga talent, the Byakugan.

Naruto held onto his first born son, Hatori. Hinata held Sorano and Mamoru in her arms. Then, Naruto noticed the blood surrounding Hinata. "I'm sorry, Naruto-san. I will never see our children grow up. Take care of our babies." she said, her voice fading. Mamoru and Sorano slid in her arms, and one of the nurses took the triplets away.

"She is ... dead. Died from blood loss." pronouced another nurse. She looked at the heartbroken Naruto...

"Mummy!" screamed Sorano, as she snapped awake. She sat up, gasping, and stared around the orphanage. It was the middle of the night, no one was awake. She stared to either side of her, her brothers. Hatori, with his spiky golden hair, and sparkly deep blue eyes, was deeply asleep, occasionally, twitching. Her other brother, Mamoru, sat, awake, his golden hair, straight and long, and his light blue eyes, watching something.

"Moru-kun, what are you doing awake?" Sorano asked, as she watched her older brother. "Sora-kun, I had that dream, about Okaa-san and Otoo-san." he replied. "So did I." said Sorano, quietly. Hatori opened his eyes, and looked at his younger siblings. He swore, when they turned five years old, that he'd protect them. Mamoru was two minutes younger than him, and Sorano was a whole fifteen minutes younger than both her brothers. Her purple hair was tied in a plait, and her pale lavender-blue eyes looked at Mamoru.

"Tori-kun, you are awake, right?" Mamoru asked the older brother. Hatori got up, and went over to Mamoru's bed, where he sat down. "I wish we knew who are parents were, or are." said Sorano, quietly. "Don't you think I wish that every day. All we know is that our mother died giving birth to us, and our father's last name is Uzumaki." said Hatori, with his fierce spirit.

"We will find him." said Sorano, detirmedly. "Look, tomorrow, we're becoming Genin. Let's get some sleep." said Hatori. He smiled at his siblings, and went back to his bed. Sorano hugged Mamoru, and went back to her bed in the middle. Mamoru got up, stretched, and went to the window, where he saw a orange clad figure, jumping around the buildings. "Okaa-san, please watch over Sora-kun and Tori-kun, and please let our Otoo-san know we exist." he whispered, before going to bed.

While his own children were talking, Naruto Uzumaki lept from building to building, watching over the Village of Konoha. He was the Seventh Hokage. He let a tear escape from his eye, as he thought of his deceased wife, Hinata Hyuga-Uzumaki. He whiped it away, as he spotted a orange clad eleven year old, talking to hisself. He heard him say. "Okaa-san, please watch over Sora-kun and Tori-kun, and please let our Otoo-san know we exist." That boy turned, and went back inside the orphanage of Konoha.

Naruto crept up to the window, and looked in, to see three sleeping children, his children. Hatori, Mamoru and Sorano. He sighed, they deserved to know him, but how could he introduce hisself. It's not like he could go up to them and say. "Hey, I'm Uzumaki Naruto, and I'm your Otoo-san." Naruto left the building, and went home, to his estate, where he had lived with Hinata.

The next day, Hatori and Mamoru awoke early. They dressed, in matching clothes. One, in red and black, the other in silver and black, with a spiral symbol. They woke Sorano, who dressed in similar clothes, to Sakura Haruno-Uchiha, but in purple and black, with the spiral symbol. They equipped Kunai knives, and shurikan, and Sorano equipped her sword.. She was extremly skilled in sword usage. The siblings also were really good at the use of the Byakugan.

The triplets left the orphanage, and headed for the Konoha Ninja Academy. They assembled, before class, with the other students. But, those triplets more commonly kept to themselves. They were known as the Orphans. No one knew their real last name, so they went by Hyuga, their mother's last name. A bell sounded, and the academy doors opened.

The Uchiha twins appeared, one black haired and green eyed, one pink haired and black eyed. Madara and Mikoto Uchiha, twin sisters, daughters of Uchiha Sasuke and Haruno-Uchiha Sakura. The black haired twin was Mikoto, and the pink haired was Madara. But, only one twin possessed the Sharigan. They entered the Academy, followled by their friend, Yasuo Nara. He had blonde hair with black highlights, and blue-grey eyes.

The triplets took their usual seats, at the back of the classroom. They kept a wary eye on the Nara boy, who loved playing pranks, and always seemed to rope Mikoto Uchiha into them. Madara sat, her back to the triplets, in her quiet way. "Quiet class." said Ino Yamanaka-Nara, the sensei. Everyone quietened down.

She said the roll, and got to the H's.

"Hyuga, Hatori."

"Present."

"Hyuga, Mamoru."

"Present."

"Hyuga, Sorano."

"Sorano?"

"Here miss!"

Ino rolled her eyes, and eyed the last Hyuga triplet. She, like other shinobi her age, knew exactly who their parents were. She continued down the roll, reaching the U's.

"Uchiha, Madara."

"Here."

"Uchiha, Mikoto."

"Uchiha, Mikoto?"

Ino looked up. The black haired twin was missing, again. So was Yasuo. She sighed, and rolled her eyes once more. "Excuse me, while I find Uchiha Mikoto and Nara Yasuo." she said, exiting the classroom. The triplets eyed Madara Uchiha. "Why's your twin disappeared again?" Mamoru asked her. "Like I know." she replied, in a quiet voice. Mamoru blushed red, as he eyed the Uchiha girl. He secretly liked her. As the students started talking, a blond headed shinobi entered the classroom.

"Hey class." he said, cheerfully, sitting down, and observing the students. "Konnichwa Naruto-niichan." said several students. He pecifically eyed the triplets. "Hyuga Hatori, may I speak with you." he requested, smiling. Hatori looked at his brother and sister. "Hai." he said, sticking his hands in his pockets, and followling the Seventh Hokage. Mamoru looked at Sorano. "Sora-kun, I wonder what that's about." he said, grinning.

Hatori eyed the yellow haired shinobi. "Hatori-san, have you ever wondered about your parents." he asked. "Hai, Naruto-niichan. My siblings and I are always wondering. We know our mother was Hinata Hyuga, and she died giving birth to us." replied Hatori. "Do you know who your father is?" he asked. "Well, no, Naruto-niichan. The orphanage only told us of our Okaa-san." said Hatori, shuffling, and looking down at his feet.

"I know your Otoo-san." said Naruto. Hatori looked up. "I am your Otoo-san."
