Yeah, I had this part done already.
Um... Enjoy...?

This was more than a disgrace to his household.
A disgrace would have been better than this. They may have been able to recover if Hinata had merely disgraced the Hyuuga name, but this was far larger and far more scandalous than a simple disgrace. There were no words to describe the shame and humiliation his daughter has bestowed upon this family.
His twelve year old daughter.
His pregnant twelve year old daughter.
"Hiashi-sama."
The Hyuuga head slowly emerged from his thoughts and settled his deadly white eyes on the long haired brunette in front of him. His eyes slid to his right, where his daughter continued to whimper and cower in the sterile bed. He was fiercely tempted to activate his blood limit to bait his anger further, but he couldn't lose his temper.
He'd deal with the Uchiha boy soon enough.
"Hiashi-sama," the medical ninja said again, "she is four weeks along, but I fear there is...more."
"Of course." He huffed; his temperament refused to improve. "I did not expect her to make this any less humiliating."
The woman coughed, uncomfortable. "Yes, well, I feel that it is best if we have the Uchiha's guardian present before I disclose all the information."
"He is an orphan. I am not aware nor have I ever took it upon myself to indulge in the personal life of a defective Uchiha."
"Sir... Given the boy's lineage and circumstances, I believe he is the Hokage's responsibility. With that being said, it is imperative that he is informed immediately."
"You expect me to take this atrocity to the Hokage himself?"
"Literally speaking, we should have him come here."
Pregnant...
Hinata was pregnant...
He got Hinata...pregnant?
Hinata was going to have his...
That was impossible. Puberty for him only started last year...so there was no way his body could be producing semen potent enough to get a girl pregnant. Hinata herself could not have been long into puberty either, so there was just no way... He wasn't...
Sasuke looked up. The Hyuuga clinical room was empty except for Hinata, who was shuddering and hunched over in the bed.
There was no way this was happening. That day was meant to save their lives not ruin it. He couldn't be a...a father. There was still much to be done before he could even think about restoring his clan, and Hinata Hyuuga had never been nor was she currently in his plans to make that happen.
He didn't want Hinata to be the one to do this.
If he was to be a father, he didn't want her to be the one bearing his child.
His child...
Him, a father...
Hinata, the-
The door to the room opened and in came a medical ninja, Hiashi Hyuuga, and the Third Hokage. Adults rarely intimidated Sasuke these days, but the sight of both the Hyuuga and the old man only solidified the trouble he was in—trouble that had to be a massive mistake.
The Hokage looked at Sasuke, who averted his eyes to the floor.
"How did this happen?" the Sarutobi asked, standing at the boy's side. His tone didn't hold any of the understanding lilts the Uchiha had grown accustomed to.
Hiashi stood at the foot of his daughter's bed, crossing his arms. "We both know how this happened. In fact," he pointedly looked at the children, both of whom were rigid and refused to look up at anyone, "we all know how."
The older man ignored his spite. "Perhaps that was the wrong question. What, exactly, is it that I need to hear?"
"Well, sir," the medical ninja addressed, lifting a clipboard from a table, "after we examined Lady Hinata, we found signs of..." She paused, deciding to use terminology the two accused could easily understand, "forced entry."
Sasuke's heart dropped.
Hinata fought down sobs.
"Forced?" Hiruzen's tone was stunned, almost a whisper. "This is for certain? Is it not possible that, considering her age, the act itself could have produced the same signs?"
The medical ninja looked at Hinata. She couldn't imagine what she must have gone through—how scared she must have been—and, even with two high-ranking men present, she couldn't find it in herself to indulge in the particulars. Not at Hinata's expense.
"If you would like, I can walk you through our examination results, but I assure you this was not a case of consent."
"Leave the room, Kana," Hiashi demanded, though, with the way he had closed his eyes and was gripping the bedpost, it sounded more like a death threat.
The woman excused herself and quickly exited the room.
The room was tense, the air bursting with static and heat. Hinata tried to put herself in another place—a place where her late mother would comfort her and this all turned out to be the terrible effects of a genjutsu. Sasuke tried to assess all the information. With the way things were going, he was going to be accused of rape. But...it wasn't rape... He saved their lives, so he wasn't a rapist! If Hinata would just tell-
"Did you hear that?" Hiashi said, a slight laugh escaping him. "Did you hear that, Hokage-sama? That boy..." His eyes fell on Sasuke. He gripped the post tighter, a metal groaning filling the room. "That boy-"
"It happened on a mission a month ago," Sasuke said, his head still lowered. "We were ambushed. Three men took Hinata, and I went after her." He looked up, a dark glare directed at the heiress. "I saved our lives."
"You raped my daughter."
"I saved our lives," Sasuke insisted, his voice even. "Tell them, Hinata."
Hinata shook, refusing to speak. Is that how he saw it? There had been other options. He didn't have to go through with that one. They could have fought. He could have fought.
"Hinata."
She couldn't forgive him. He claims to have saved them, but she couldn't forgive him. Those men hurt her. Then he hurt her, too. He... They made him...
"Hinata."
"I want to see Kurenai-sensei," Hinata pleaded, looking up. "I want to see sensei."
"You are in no position to make demands," Hiashi warned. "No one will know about this."
Sasuke turned to the Hokage, his desperation slowly building. "Wasn't that in the report? Kakashi and the others saw our condition—they had to."
The Sarutobi had to think. These children were not denying what had happened, but now there was the possibility they both were forced to do this? The reports Kakashi and Kurenai gave said they were ambushed and the two in question were taken. They had had battered appearances, but was there more?
He sighed, wiping his worn face. "I'm calling an immediate meeting with Teams 7 and 8."
"What do you intend to do?" Hiashi demanded. "You can't possibly-"
"With all due respect, your daughter has just been given the most horrendous news a girl her age can hear. If her senseis failed to give a proper report, then she deserves to hear why."
"I hope you do not intend to relay her current situation."
"The children of both teams will be interrogated separately, but Kakashi and Kurenai must know."
"I bet this is all your fault somehow," Sakura accused, arms crossed.
Naruto gaped at her. "Me? I haven't even done anything."
"Ha! With all those pranks you played in the past, I bet they're finding new ones no one ever saw before." She sighed, shaking her head. "You claim you want to become the best of the best, but you did things that are just going to hurt all your chances. Now you're dragging your own teammates into this."
"Hey, for all we know, this is Sasuke's doing! He talks about revenge so much that they might strip him of all his shinobi responsibilities."
"Don't talk about Sasuke that way! Unlike you, he knows how not to drag others down."
"Tck. Yeah right. You know, I bet this is all coming back to what happened on that mission. I mean, how great of a ninja can you be if you're just gonna get kid-"
Sakura rammed her fist down on his head. "I said don't talk about him that way!"
The two genin were escorted through the Hokage tower by a bodyguard. They were led to a room where, upon opening, Kiba and Shino were sitting inside.
"Ah, geez," Kiba groaned. "So it really must be about that."
"What are you talking about?" Sakura asked, looking around the box of a room. There was nothing in here except two extra chairs that must be for her and Naruto. The walls were white with a red stripe going across the top and bottom, and a window was near the right corner of the room, but she couldn't have felt more suffocated.
"Our teams are being questioned, apparently." Kiba huffed, crossing his arms. Akamaru poked his head out his jacket, whining.
"Ha!" Naruto exclaimed, taking a seat. "Told ya this was about what happened."
"Well, duh!" Kiba fired. "I'm just surprised it took so long for anyone to actually ask us what happened! Both Sasuke and Hinata got attacked? It must be because of their eyes."
"It doesn't explain the condition we found them in," Shino said, his voice low.
Kiba shifted uncomfortably. "Yeah, well, we'll find out soon enough, I guess. Kurenai-sensei and Kakashi are being questioned right now."
"Uh-huh." Naruto nodded, only slightly interested. "So where are Sasuke and Hinata, anyway?"
The copycat ninja and the genjutsu specialist were stunned. Both had taken to sitting down upon hearing the news, and it was just...too much to handle. Kakashi took to staring at Sasuke, who was standing beside the Third Hokage behind his desk. Kurenai took to staring at their leader, breathless.
"Where is she?" Kurenai asked.
"Her home. Being treated," Hiruzen answered. "But you can see her later. I want the both of you to explain to me why you failed to report that these children were not only badly beaten but naked when you found them."
"Sir..." Kurenai began, shaken, "we... We wanted to save them the humiliation. If we had thought-"
"That was not your call to make. If that piece of information had been mentioned, we could have taken proper measures in evaluating both children and dealt with this issue far sooner. Not only that, but we could have dispatched a warning to all nations and villages about these heinous men who made these children commit these acts."
Kurenai and Kakashi were at a loss for words. They fully realized the mistakes they had made, but these things... This was not something they expected to happen. This has never happened before. At least not to their knowledge. It had never once crossed their minds that shinobi—shinobi who were children—would fall victim to something like this.
And now their students were...
"She has asked for you, Yuuhi," Hiruzen said, leaning back in his chair. "You are to go there immediately so we can get her take on what happened." He paused, looking at her. "I suggest you get going."
Kurenai stood numbly, bowed, and left the room.
The Hokage turned his sights on Kakashi, who had not said a word. He sighed, looking at Sasuke, who was terribly solemn and withdrawn, staring at the floor.
"In your own words, Sasuke," the Sarutobi said, his gentle tone earning Sasuke's attention, "what happened?" He turned his attention. "Kakashi. You owe it to this boy to listen."
Kakashi blinked a few times, unaware that he had nodded.
This was too much.
Sasuke didn't know where to start. He had to clear up any suspicion that he did what he did willingly, but the more he thought about it, the more it confirmed what the result had been.
A child...
His child...
Growing inside...Hinata...
He swallowed hard, confused, scared, dumbstruck, and began with, "Three men ambushed us. Then there were two more waiting..." He shook his head, recalling everything. "If I didn't do it, they were going to kill us."
Hinata rocked herself back and forth, her hands at her sides. Her eyes felt heavy, and her body was numb.
She wondered if that's why she didn't feel anything.
It's not like she ever thought about it before, but there was...something...inside of her. She thought she should feel something. Maybe...a knot or a pressure or a void. But she didn't...feel like there was a baby in...
A baby...
Sasuke's baby...
She groaned, lying against the wall. The tears were coming, but she was so tired of crying. She didn't want to cry because of what happened... It was never supposed to be this way, though. It was never supposed to be Sasuke, but now she was pregnant. Sasuke was the father.
She could never redeem herself.
Hinata began to hyperventilate, her mind reeling at the dead-end she was in.
The door burst open, and Kurenai rushed in. Hinata had no time to voice a single word because her sensei had come directly to her, embracing her tightly.
"I'm so sorry," the woman whispered, pained. "I am so, so sorry."
Hinata's tears spilled over, her stomach throbbing, and she held onto her sensei.
By the tone of Kurenai's voice, it was confirmed that this really couldn't be fixed.
