Chapter 8: Suggestions! Assassination mission...

"They told you that you need to follow the rules of the CRA!?" Tenten screeched, hurting Jacob's ears. "First off, OW! Secondly, yes, the council did put me under the CRA. I get to choose who I date/marry, however." Jacob answered, cleaning out his ears. "Alright then, but I have to approve of them, okay?" "Hai, hai, do you have any recommendations?" "How about Hinata, she did have a crush on you back when we were kids, and you were known as you-know-who." "..." "Naruto?" "... She had a crush on me?" "Yesss…" "... At FIVE!?" "Yeah."

Jacob facepalmed, clearly shocked and embarrassed. "I was a heartbreaker… AT FIVE! I don't know whether to consider myself lucky, or cursed… Anyway, there is one problem… The elders would never allow it." "What are we going to do about it?" "We wait and see, I guess…"

(2 weeks later…)

"Did you need me, Baa-chan?" Jacob said, coming into Tsunade's office. "Yes, I do, actually. Sit, please. Someone requested you for an assassination mission to kill the Hyuuga elders for treason, it seems that the client wants this to go over smoothly. Here is a map of the clan grounds, good luck."

(That night, 12:00 AM)

"Perfect, this should be good." Jacob said, crouching on a tree branch, holding his knifes.

He then jumped out of the tree and into a open window, and ran to the meeting room, knocking out anyone in his way. His face was covered, and his headband was back at his apartment. He then took the guards and sliced their throats. "I leave no witnesses, I must be as unseen as a ghost." Jacob told himself. He then burst down the wall of the elders' meeting room, and saw a bunch of Oto nin, along with Orochimaru talking to the elders. "Hello gentlemen, someone has sent me to kill you." He said, putting on his best pompous accent. "Who are you? How did you get here!?" One of the elders said, clearly panicking. "I am The Phantom. A member of your clan suspected you of treason, and I must say, I never thought it would be this bad. Making deals with a known traitor… *Tsk tsk tsk* I'm going to kill you all now, witnesses are a messy thing you know." Jacob then struck at an Oto-nin behind him, killing him instantly. "I'm afraid that won't work, my good man." "Then what will?" Orochimaru said, curious as to who this new opponent was. "You really think I'll tell you my weakness? That would ruin the surprise!" Jacob fired back, as he stabbed an elder in the stomach.

This made Orochimaru furious. HOW DARE this WORM deny him information. He was about to strike, but then an arrow hit him in the knee. "Oh, look, what are the chances?" Jacob said in a condescending voice, holding his bow. He then struck the snake in his other knee, immobilizing him. "You are not a clever snake, Orochimaru, you are a cowardly rat!" Jacob said, pulling up the Otokage's head. Orochimaru's eyes widened at the carnage. All of his otonin were dead, and the Hyuuga elders were being mutilated… all but one.

"You thought I would let you take my granddaughter and get away with it, didn't you?!" the elder said, very angry "Well you were wrong! I was the one who hired the assassin! I will not let my son grieve for his daughter when he is still feeling the burden of his wife's passing! I have never agreed with the rest of the elders, and this was the final straw!" "You heard the man! DIE!" Orochimaru then found his head on the ground, and he fell over, dead.
