Prologue: The Family Tree

Three figures stood in a dimly lit room staring at two new born infants. The group comprised of one woman and two men. One man had blood red eyes while the other man had light green eyes. The woman, who had grayish brown eyes spoke first.

"So what should we do?" she inquired staring at the two babies lying in the crib. She shifted her gaze to the green eyed man standing beside her.

He stared back at her and responded emotionlessly, "They're his spawn. They should not be allowed to live. In fact, we should kill them right now." He pulled out a kunai and started to twirl it around his index finger.

"You'll do no such thing. I know you're eager to kill something but you must not forget that they are her kids as well and I'll let you do no such thing as to kill her kids." stated the red-eyed man as he leaned against the wall.

The woman stared at the green eyed man and said, "I have to agree with him there. The kids are innocents and I doubt she would like it to see her kids killed just because of who their father is. Besides, they could become quite able shinobi with that blood line limit of theirs."

"Fine," he said gruffly, "but don't expect me to come to your aid when your guys decision comes up and bites you in the ass." He then put away kunai and said, "I'm off." And in a poof of smoke, he was gone.

The woman turned to face the remaining man. "I take it you'll take care of their living arrangements." When the man nodded, she continued, "Good and for Kamis sake, I hope their father never gets hold of one of them or we'll all be in deep shit. Are you sure they will be safe living with their relatives? That is who you are planning to have take care of them, is it not?

"Now that the Uchihas are gone, they are now arguably the most powerful clan in all of Konaha. The only safer places would be with one of us and I doubt that any of us want to be pulled down buy a bunch of kids. Besides, its what she would have wanted. And on top of that, I doubt any of us could teach them how to use their blood line limit." he stopped talking as he heard foot steps come down the hall.

"We have to go. Do what you think you have to do. I'll support you on any of your decisions. But right now, we should not be seen hanging around these babies. See you in a couple of years." and with that, she was gone as well.

The man walked up to the crib and looked down at the babies. He smiled when he saw how much they looked like their mother. The foot steps stopped at the door and it was time he knew he should be gone. He had one last stop before he left the city.

Nurse Tsukino opened the door to the baby ward. "Funny," she said to herself, "I could've sworn I heard voices." Of course, that's complete nonsense she thought to herself. But just to make sure, she walked up to the crib to make sure the babies were safe. When she looked into the crib, the babies smiled at her and she couldn't help but smile back. Yep she thought. Must have been my imagination, and with that she walked out of the room to check up on some of the other patients.

So. What do you think? Sorry about how short it is but I promise I will make the following chapters a lot longer. Please review. I don't mind constructive criticism or ideas. Oh ya. I need some good Japanese names. Thanks for reading. I hope you like it.
