AN: I came back. I've been away because of finals and life, but enough of that. It's time to get this story back rolling!
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto
Rate and Review! It fuels my writing prowess.
Immediately, the civilian council glared at the "demon brat" holding the Last Uchiha's hand in a loving manner. Albeit, it was pretty weak, like a corgi trying to set a hotdog on fire. Elder Koharu decided to break the silence.
"Where were you two in the morning? The meeting was delayed for an hour." Koharu spoke shrewdly.
"We were uh… away so to speak…" Naruto said sheepishly, scratching the back of his head. Koharu was about to press for more information but Danzo decided to interrupt.
"Enough, Koharu. All that matters is that they're here." The civilian council started to murmur and whisper, but it was quiet. Danzo glanced at Hiruzen, handing the floor to him.
"Thank you, Danzo." Hiruzen said with a slight, slight veil of distaste. Turning his attention back to the two members of Team 7, he cleared his throat.
"Sasuke, Naruto, do you know why I called for you today?" Hiruzen said. Sayuri scoffed and looked the other way.
"No, but I can assume why." Sayuri said heatedly, being called Sasuke despite her transformation and having her time wasted when it could be used with Naruto. Who, at the time, scratched his cheek. She was a bit miffed.
"Enough. Get to the point, Uchiha." Danzo said cutting in. Sayuri rolled her eyes.
"I used the Oiroke no Jutsu to physically change myself to a girl and sealed my form that way. The name's Sayuri, by the way, Danzo." She said, lacking an honorific. After placing the seal on herself, her personality was being molded to a more feminine one, after the sudden flux from testosterone to estrogen. "Naruto was the only person who developed a solid henge so I went to him." She finished, turning her attention to Naruto who again, laughed sheepishly and scratched his head. Secretly, she rubbed his hand with her thumb and he responded with a gentle squeeze.
The civilian council was in an uproar when they heard that Naruto had played a part in it, throwing words like "demon brat" or "monster". The room was flooded with killing intent as Hiruzen directed his gaze at the civilian council, effectively suffocating them. After effectively shutting them up, Hiruzen did a hand motion to Sayuri to continue.
"Anyways, the Sharingan can only be developed and passed down by a female member of the clan, so I was doing Konoha a favor." Sayuri said offhandedly. The civilian council were shocked, save for Danzo and Hiruzen for… reasons. "Any male would do if paired with an Uchiha female, but for it to be most effective, a male Uchiha would need to be the one." She said with finality.
Hiashi Hyuuga instantly spoke, trying to worm himself into the conversation.
"If that's the case, I nominate Hyuuga Neji to be eloped with the Uchiha." Hiashi said, to the approval of the civilian council.
"Absolutely not! I won't be put under like a pig in a farm!" She shouted, exuding large amounts of Killing Intent at the Hyuuga patriarch. Hiashi wouldn't have it, though.
"Yes you will, Uchiha. You are the last of your clan and as such it is the responsibility of the council to decid-"
"The Clan Reconstruction Act doesn't go into play with females and I already have someone!" Sayuri shouted, wrapped in the moment before blushing, realizing what she said.
Everyone present was surprised, even Naruto, who had at some point sat down at a small table with pieces of white paper and crayons, doodling pictures of whatever. Sayuri had also sat down too at some point, and drew a picture of Naruto subconsciously during her debate with the council. He was more so surprised that Sayuri would leak information like that but, what's done has been done.
"Who is the person?" Hiruzen prodded. He really wanted to end this colossal headache of a meeting. Sayuri blushed and looked down, muttering under her breath.
"What was that?"
Sayuri's eyebrow twitched and said it a little louder. "Uz….ki Nar...o."
Hiruzen took a pinky to dig around the inside of his ear. "What was that you say? My hearing's not as good as it used to be."
"UZUMAKI NARUTO-KOI!" Sayuri shouted, her blush enveloping her own face putting Hinata's to shame. The civilian council were in shock as the last Uchiha was in love with the "demon brat". Naruto continued to doodle, a shadow clone was next to him drawing as well.
Hiruzen, Danzo and Kakashi were happy of the development. Hiruzen and Kakashi were glad that it wasn't a certain stalker that captured the Jinchuuriki's heart, after Hiruzen found out from his Crystal Ball and Kakashi from his ANBU duties. Danzo, for a whole other reason.
"I approve of their relationship." Danzo said astutely, surprising everyone. Although Danzo was seen as a person that hated Naruto, he was actually neutral. He even found some of Naruto's antics…. amusing! Of course, no one knew but himself, but that's a chapter for another time. Immediately, Koharu stood up.
"Why would you approve of the Uchiha being together with the demo-" A kunai flew and impaled the chair, sticking next to her head. Sayuri retracted her arm as she glared a furious one at the elder.
"I can tolerate your disapproval of my relationship with Naruto, but insult him and I will see to it to kill you." She said ferociously. The council was silent for a brief moment until Danzo started up again. He shook his head.
"I approve because of the possible Kekkei Genkai the child might have. It could inherit the Sharingan and the Uzumaki traits. Longevity, Stamina, Large Chakra reserves, it'll be the perfect soldier. Not to mention that a large amount of Uzumaki children were female, an almost 9:1 ratio of female to male. This'll repopulate the Uchiha clan and the Sharingan wouldn't die out."
Hiashi and the other minor clans jumped, especially the civilians, throwing out requests to wed off their daughters to the Uzumaki, save for the other large clans. Hiruzen instantly spoke up.
"Naruto will not be wed to anyone else than Sayuri Uchiha." He spoke with finality. The civilians (and Hiashi) voiced their disapproval. "The Uzumaki Clan is one of familial integrity, and only believe to loving one person. By the looks of it, Naruto has already established a deep relationship with Sayuri." Hiruzen nodded sagely.
Sayuri was confused at Hiruzen's words, raising an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"
"Come here, and pull your collar down." Sayuri walked with the still drawing Naruto to the Hokage and pulled down her collar, revealing a tattoo of a whirlpool on her neck. "This is the Uzumaki Life Bonding Seal, (Jinsei Kizuna Fūin) [Cookie to anyone who knows where this is from :D] and it can only be acquired if an Uzumaki and their partner love each other unconditionally." He turned to Naruto, narrowing his eyes and smirking. 'What did the two of you do in one day to have this happen already? You work fast, Naruto… Hiruzen thought, tears rolling off his face and wiping them away before anyone noticed.
The council members were whispering amongst each other, words like "seal master" or "break" were picked up and Hiruzen again released a large amount of KI.
"The seal cannot be broken unless Naruto or the Uchiha dies. It has an underlying seal in it that informs the other if they are in danger, and traits are shared between the two." Hiruzen said with Danzo nodding. Can't have the Uchiha die and have the Sharingan die off after all.
Sayuri was glad, elated even about how the two's relationship excelled after just a day that she gave Naruto a deep kiss. She opened her eyes and saw Naruto passed out, not having experienced this amount of intimacy before. Hiruzen smirked.
"In order to preserve the relationship, I expect the two of you to give me some grandchildren!" He said, smirking. Being Naruto's pseudo-grandfather, he was a bit giddy. "Before 16." Danzo butted in.
Hiruzen turned and narrowed his eyes at Danzo. "What are you getting at Danzo?" Danzo faced Hiruzen and got into seiza position, surprising everybody. It turned to shock when he bowed low to the ground.
"Please, Hokage-sama. I beg of you." He said, his face still low to the floor. Too stunned for words, Hiruzen nodded. "Okay… but you better tell me what you're planning when the meeting is over, Danzo." He said with authority. Danzo got back up, dusting himself off and returned to his original position.
Hiashi, not reading the mood, butted in.
"Please reconsider, Hokage-sama. The Uchiha is ill-suited for the Uzumaki. I'd like Hyuuga Neji to wed Sayuri and Hyuuga Hinata to wed Uzumaki Naruto." He said, trying to move the conversation in his favor. Hiruzen was getting visibly agitated and was about to put the Clan Leader down but Sayuri beat him to it, albeit a bit scarily.
Her face somehow had shadowing under her eyes, nose and mouth and her smile creepily worked its way on her mouth, reminding everyone of the late Mikoto Uchiha. The Patented "Ghoul-Eyes" unnerved everyone present, save for a certain wood wielding ANBU who was having flashbacks during his times as a rookie under the tutelage of Uchiha Mikoto.
It was from her that Tenzo learned the Ghoul-Eye technique, but his was to a lesser degree. Sayuri had somehow inherited the equal amount of terror from Mikoto and continued to leer at Hiashi, who was sweating.
"I doubt that Neji can keep up with me compared to Naruto, and if you think enforcing the CRA upon Naruto-koi then I'll kill all the kunoichi our age, because I hate sharing. Unless, you want to test me?" A Hannya Mask appeared from behind her head that looked suspiciously like a form of Susanoo (Indra's version of Susanoo. You can find it on the wiki.) leered from behind her, it's eyes gleaming red that guaranteed certain death. Black energy lines and an aura surrounded her giving a sense of foreboding.
Hiruzen's hand unconsciously locked the drawer behind the desk that contained his Icha-Icha, Kakashi was eye-smiling, remembering the times in ANBU and Danzo closed his visible eye and smirked a fraction, before it vanished just as quick.
Hiashi wisely kept his mouth shut, fearing for his life as the Hokage ended the meeting. Once everyone left, Sayuri dragged Naruto out the door, leaving Danzo and Hiruzen in the room.
"Now, what was that you wanted, Danzo. I have a bone to pick with you if you have ill-intent." Hiruzen said, eyeing Danzo critically. Danzo looked at Hiruzen and sighed at his expression.
'Things are already as bad as they are, and I can't keep this secret hidden now.' Danzo opened his visible eye, a hardened expression graced his face.
"I said those things because…. Naruto is… my nephew."
AN: Remember, I'm just rewording the already existing chapters to get it out of the way, it's fine as it is and I'll take the story into my own hands as soon as it's done. Til Chapter 4! And I promise I won't take a year to finish things in my personal life. Sorry if I disappointed people, it was not of my intent. Ciao!
