Chapter 14

AN: Wow! A lot of people are enjoying the Hyuga idea! Also, the idea a guest reviewer gave about having the Konoha 12 join Danzo's camp is truly devious and I might do it…I don't know. If you guys have any characters or ideas for the "camp" please send them! So far I have gotten most of my training ideas for it from one of my favorite anime "Kenichi the Mightiest Disciple"- love that show, please watch it.

Finally, Danzo need to give our blonde mascot a code name for Root missions-any ideas? The more embarrassing the better.

Hyuga compound…

Hiashi Hyuga was a proud, calm, and regal man. He never showed his displeasure or sadness when amongst others. But the three boys in front of him pushed his Hyuga powers to the mask.

Was this karma for the Kumo incident? No, not even karma was this cruel.

It all started when his sweet eldest daughter brought the ANBU guard and two classmates to train with the Hyuga. Hiashi originally was delighted- the two classmates, Shin and Sai he believed, were obviously Root with their uniforms and the ANBU agent was young- a prodigy no doubt, and the Hyuga in the ANBU spoke highly of his abilities. They would be good training partners and the political prestige would be enormous. Yes, everything was going well until the tallest one opened his mouth.

"Prepare for trouble, make that double…crap, wrong speech, rewind!" He coughed and restarted "We are the strongest black ops team. Hailing from the shadows, women shout our name! Men fear us! Children try to be us! Holding the record of longest sanity remaining intact in the only weekly SS-mission, never showing enemies anything but our badassness- we are team SHIN AND HIS LACKEYS!" They strike ridiculous poses in a totem pole fashion.

Sai was on the bottom, looking resigned and giving a crane pose. "Thank you for your hospitality" he said in a monotone.

Naruto was on Sai's shoulders, holding fire crackers in each hand and waving them around. "Never fear, future ANBU Commander here!" he chirped.

Shin was on top, standing on Naruto's head, victory sign in place.

Overall it was the most embarrassing thing Hiashi had ever seen. And they did it in the street.

Sniggers were heard from both the guards and everyone around. Hiashi swore he heard a camera click. Hiashi resorted to what worked on most annoyances- ignore them.

"Yes, very well, welcome to the Hyuga compound. Please follow me for training and tea." Hiashi Hyuga made the biggest mistake of his life- ignoring Shin and Naruto.

"Sempai, he ignored our awesome entrance!" Naruto stage whispered. Shin had murder in his eyes, a look Sai always dreaded.

"I know, Kohai. Don't worry though, they will acknowledge my awesomeness." Naruto nodded, ignoring Shin didn't include him in the "awesomeness".

Rooftop nearby…

Flamengo began ritualistically banging his head on the roof top.

"I'm doomed! I might as well just never go home! No no nonononononon!" He continued. Boar and Tiger were sniggering next to him, taking plenty of pictures.

"I knew that suggesting a flashy entrance was worth it." Boar howled, clutching his sides. Tiger joined in as Flamengo whipped his head up and glared at Boar.

"IT. WAS. YOU! I SPENT HOURS TEACHING HIM MANNERS AND YOU RUINED IT!" Flamengo's eyes bulged behind his mask. "Prepare, sempai, for today you will die for corruption!" Boar dodged a juuken strike to his center. Laughing, he taunted his kohai, and for the next several hours calls of 'take your death like the filthy scum you are' could be heard around Konoha.

Tiger watched them go. He knew Naruto would cause plenty of black mail worthy situations, but agent Tiger had always wanted to know if Hiashi Hyuga had a secret pleasure for perverseness like Hokage-sama. Chuckling, he made a seed, and had it take a message to his Kohai.

Now he just had to sit back with his roasted peanuts and enjoy the fruits of his labor.

Hyuga compound, tea time…

Calm, Hiashi. Think of this as training for dealing with unpleasant situations. Yes, you cannot kill them- Danzo and the Hokage would not stand for it- so just calmly sip your tea. Ignore the bouncing ball of ANBU destroying the tatami mats and the tall Root agent laughing manically while throwing senbon at unsuspecting elders. Take your revenge out on the cooks.

Hiashi Hyuga's predicament came to be because a rather foolish side branch cook gave the three boys caffeinated tea. Judging from the now shambled room Kitsune and Shin were obviously both 'decaf' people.

The intentions were pure; after an arduous three hour sparring session complete with an apparent trap war between his youngest and Shin it seemed logical that caffeine would perk them up.

I say the objective has been complete. Hiashi pointedly ignored Shin as he landed on the clan head's hair, munching on it like an animal. The others in the room were less composed. Hinata was even curled into a ball praying for mercy.

Except Sai, that is. He serenely drank his tea, using a silk napkin to dot his face. Whenever a launched tatami mat hurled at him a tanto would appear out of nowhere and slice it in half.

"You knew they acted like this?" Hiashi seethed inside as the boy smiled in his creepy way.

"I have no idea what you mean, Hyuga-sama. No idea at all." That little punk! He's lying through his teeth and knows I can't do anything!

An hour later everyone but Sai was collapsed, either from a caffeine crash or from watching the display. Naruto sat up in jerk soon after, and looked over to Sai.

"I believe, Kitsune, that you have a mission to complete?" He asked politely. Sai wondered why his friend was given the B-class mission of seeing Hiashi's "dirty little secret" but let it go- a mission was a mission, after all.

Naruto creeped through the main house, wishing to not wake anyone. He made it to his target's study, and made shadow clones with the required offering.

"Shin is Great: Shadow clone jutsu!" Five Naruto's popped up, and fanned out.

"Hey Boss" one said immediately. "Think it's in that giant vault right there with a sign "do not enter: man cave?" All Narutos blinked, then ran over to the now obvious- how did he not notice a seven foot wide metal safe door?- before pulling out a safe breaker kit.

"Heh… let's see. 0…0…0…0." Naruto paused. "The guy was really that lazy?" The clones shrugged and they opened the door slowly. Light creeped in. Naruto could tell it was full of shelves and displays. He held his breath in case of traps. Looking closely, he was able to see hundreds of his target's…

China doll collection?

End! Nice obsession for Hiashi? And this was just the first Hyuga visit. And Sai, that little devil.
