Author Note:
Nin-Roku here Yea I saw the mistakes I made in my first chapter. To clear up a few things. 1. Tsunade's fiance and brother are not dead. Orochimaru didn't go evil an leave the village. Jiraiya brought back Konan and Yahiko after saving them from Hanzō and Ne attack on them. I won't disclose what happen to Nagato thou since that's for the future :P. I got a lot of shocks for you coming up :D
Dango Shop(After counsel Meeting)
Having been promoted to Chunin during recent Chunin exams held in Kumo a few months ago, Anko Mitarashi sat in her spot at the bar munching away on her twentieths bowl of Dango. Having worked up a large appetite from evacuating civilians from the zones Kyuubi hit during its attack, her clothes were torn in places from narrowly dodging falling parts of buildings which left her covered in dust. Her muscles screamed at her for over using them during the evacuation and now eating her precious dangos.
"Ah my body hurts Nai-chan I can't even eat the last of my dango. Nai-chan feed it to me." pouted out Anko in a tired but whiny voice to her friend Kurenai Yuhi.
Kurenai sighs shaking her head at her best friend's antics, she sets her own stick of dangos down to reach an take her friend's to feed it to her. "Well Anko-chan if you didn't do my load and yours, you wouldn't be so sore now would you?"
The only response she got was a playful humph and thank you as Anko inhales the dangos off the stick leaving her looking like a squirrel with its cheeks stuffed with nuts. She places the now barren stick down so she can get back to eating her second bowl of dangos. Anko munches away happily at the last of her dangos, she slyly swipes one of Kurenai's with out her knowing or so she thought at least. Of course Kurenai knew Anko did but chose to say nothing about it knowing how hard her friend pushed herself tonight. Orochimaru-sama tasked them with helping evacuating the civilians from the area the kyuubi had appeared near. While her father Shinku Yuhi barred them and the other younger ninja's from participating in the defense of the village. The senior Chunins and Jounins sped off hastily to reach the Sandaime Hokage in holding back the Kyuubi as they waited for the Yondaime to show up.
A swirl of leaves appeared in the middle of the shop signature Shunshin of the village. Once the leaves cleared the occupants of the establishment could see anbu standing there looking directly at the two young teen girls. Walking over everyone could see he's not much older than the two young teens from just looking at his stature and his voice.
"Chunin Anko Mitarashi, Chunin Kurenai Yuhi. You have been here by ordered by the Sandaime Hokage on a escort mission. You are to prepare for a two week long trip to you leave at 0600am tomorrow at the East gate. Do NOT be late." Inu spoke monotone before disappearing in a swirl of leaves.
On the anbu's departure both girls sat stunned at suddenly being called no ordered to take a mission after attack the village just suffered. Both look at each other before darting off to their respective homes to pack an sleep.
Evacuation bunker #43 in Konoha
Konan and Yahiko were relaxing and playing with the academy students since they were tasked to guard and evacuate them. Of course they ended up staying with the students an the civilians to keep them calm, knowing how much they are feeling right now. Having once been like them, Konan a short straight blue haired, warm amber eyed woman entertained the children with her the animals she made origami bloodline(I'm calling it a bloodline cuz I can). The parents of the children were grateful for the distraction she offered the children even themselves were enjoying it. A smile graced her lips as few civilian girls braided her hair. At first the civilians and shinobi of konoha weren't all that open with the pair, seeing as they were from Amegakure. They understood, they were very wary of Konoha as well having been living no surviving in a war torn country for half their lives. Until Jiraiya-sama brought them back to Konoha saving them from a future of violence. A frown develops on her lips as a wave of sadness hits her remembering their friend Nagato who died giving them time to escape from Hanzō and his anbu. Once they were far enough away safely Jiraiya went back to find the place a war zone, bodies scattered everywhere huge holes torn in the ground blood everywhere. Scorch marks and ash piles here an there dotting the land.
But oddly no signs of Nagato's body or Hanzō anywhere, Jiraiya assuming Nagato was one of the ash piles or scorch marks. Sadness filled him for he had hoped Nagato was the child of prophecy. He returned to inform them that Nagato didn't make it, Konan broke down crying at the news of her friends death. Yahiko caught her in his arms before she has a chance to hit the ground. Konan shakes her head to expels the memory so she can focus back on the present.
"Oi! Gaki stop that." A deep timber focus spoke causing a smile to grace her lips knowing her spoke.
Turning around she saw the spiky orange locks of her husband putting a stop to two small academy boys fight, she giggles at his antics. Upon hearing the giggles he turns his blue eyes towards the sound finding his wife who had her hand under her large bump. Them expecting their own little Gaki's any time now, which brings a large smile to his face. They both agreed to name one of the twins if it turned out to be a boy after their friend Nagato in honor of his sacrifice and memory.
"You could help you know." He spoke in a playful annoyed manner.
"I could my dear husband but it deprive you of the practice you'll need when our own little ones get here. But I'm sure the boys are just restless." Konan said in playfulness she was only five months but looked like she was ready to pop.
The two boys nods their heads in agreement smiling brightly at her. "Hai! Tenshi-nee-chan! We're just restless with being cooped up in here." The children and some of the villagers have taken to calling her Tenshi-chan because of her mode of travel in the village by her paper wings. Which give her the appearance of being a angel, and how much the kids love her.
"See Yahiko-Kun they meant no harm. Now how bout you two go back to your Sensais I'm sure they're looking for you in here." Just as the words left her mouth a nervous looking Chunin came over scanning the crowd, as his eyes lands on the two boys his body relaxes.
The Chunin bows towards them "Arigatou Tenshi-san, Yahiko-san for finding them. We were doing a head count when Daisu-kun and Kento-kun went missing. Oh also they say we can come out now of the bunkers. If you will excuse us I'll take the boys back to the rest of the students." he bows once more to them before turning leading the boys away.
Yahiko walks over to his wife wrapping a arm around her waist pulling her gently into his side leading her to the exit. "I guess we'll go home then love." Konan nods her head leaning into him smiling as she rubs soothing circles on her stomach soothing their restless duo.
Once out of the bunker an barely fifty feet away Inu jumps down from one of the roof tops landing in front of them. He stands up straight nodding his head at them both. "Chunin Yahiko, Chunin Konan you have been here by ordered by the Sandaime Hokage on a escort mission. You are to prepare for a two week long trip to you leave at 0600am tomorrow at the East gate." once the both of them nod showing they heard an understood Inu jumps up onto the roof tops heading towards the clan district.
"Guess I'll go pack for us when we get home then. I wonder what type of escort mission this will be if Hokage-sama is sending you knowing your pregnant love." Yahiko said while shrugging his shoulders as he leads them toward their small house.
Clan Compound District (Hyuuga Compound)
Inu lands down in front of the tall gate to the Hyuuga compound he stands up an walks to the gate knocking on it. Knowing the Hyuuga clan is extremely uptight about people entering with out permission he waits no more than a few seconds as the gate open to reveal a random Chunin branch family Hyuuga Guard.
"Propose of visit before entry." Came the dull monotone question from the guard.
"Please inform Hizashi Hyuuga has been here by ordered by the Sandaime Hokage on a escort mission. He is to prepare for a two week long trip. He leaves at 0600am tomorrow at the East gate." Not bothering to staying to see if what he said will reach him as Inu has two more to inform of the mission.
Uchiha Clan Compound
Inside the Uchiha compound one teenager practicing his aim as another sits on a tree sharpening his tantōs waiting for the other to get done. "Nay Itachi-kun, how long do you think it'll take before everything is back to normal?" Spoke the teen sharpening.
Pausing in his throw to look towards his annoying cousin, Itachi sighs silently as he refocuses his attention on his training "Shisui-chan I do not know. The village will recover yes, but it will never be as it once was. To much has happen for it to stay the same." Once the last word left his lips he threw all 4 kunai's at the targets across from him. Each target a different height and angel but not a single kunai missed it mark.
"Perhaps the civilians of the village will by some perchance return to a normal life they once had before the events of tonight. But the Shinobis of the village will not have such a luxury. After all we suffer the price of their immoderation." Itachi said in a calm even if slightly bored tone.
Itachi collects all of his kunai he had used only to pause feeling a presence behind them. Shisui also feeling the use of chakra stands up alert as his Mangekyo Sharingan already spinning wildly, as Itachi tosses a Kunai as the location of the chakra spike, his own sharingan spinning. If Inu were to react a half a second later he would have taken a Kunai to the heart, having jumped back drawing his own Tantō from his back he adopts a defensive stance. He wasn't expecting such hostility from the two Uchiha's but given the night's event it is not all that surprising, he relaxes his stands n sheath his tantō showing he means no harm. Seeing the intruder is anbu with a Inu mask the two deactivate their sharingan, relaxing as they bow to the anbu in apology.
"What can we do for you anbu-san at such a time of night?" Itachi ever the respectful and dutiful shinobi he is spoke up.
"Hokage-sama has assigned Lion, Weasel along with Neko and Boar to a escort mission. Be at the east gate at 0600 sharp. Pack for two week trip. Also inform your mother Itachi-san that she is also to be there." then once more he disppears in a swirl of leaves with only one last person to inform.
Maito Gai House
Since his father death's a few months ago he has pushed him self to the limits with training. Maito Gai quickly rose through the ranks along side his lifelong rival Kakashi Hayate, both becoming chunin's during the exam then Jounins through the war. Even thou he wasn't much older than fifteen he was extremely strong, loyal, kind and energetic but still somewhat inexperienced in his new rank. Of course that just pushed him further to prove himself after having been denied from joining the anbu corps to look after his friend Kakashi by the Sandaime. Saying he didn't have the darkness in him to fully commit to anbu, which he quickly understood after being asked to shadow his friend. A loud knock on his front door stopped him from his thoughts, curious about who it could be he pushed himself off his ceiling cutting off his chakra that kept him there doing a new chakra control exercise he was developing.
Walking over to the door he opens its to reveal none other than his lifelong rival "YOSHI INU-SAN HOW MAY I HELP YOU ON THIS MOST YOUTHFUL NIGHT!" Gai yelled loudly thankfully the Sandaime Hokage had ordered sound barrier seals around Gai's house therefore no one heard the yelling other than the two in the house.
Inu shaking his head trying to dispel the ringing in his ears from Gai's yelling, once finished he stood up slightly taller to his full height which didn't match up to his friend's. "Jounin Maito Gai you have been here by ordered by the Sandaime Hokage on a escort mission. You are to prepare for a two week long trip to you leave at 0600am tomorrow at the East gate."
Once the last person was informed he shunshin's away already knowing the other two anbu know of their mission.
Hokage Tower Counsel Chamber
Tsume blinks looking down at the young pup of her best friend in her arms sleeping away with out a worry in the world. A sad smile graces her lips she remains seated watching the other members leave the chamber. "Tsume I believe it would be wise to get the pup back to the compound. Do not like the scents the civilians are giving off, you know I don't like the smell of hate." A deep bass voice spoke from her side startlingly her.
"Hai Hai Kuromaru, Best we leave now other wise those fools will try something and Kiba probably waking up for a feeding." Tsume spoke with a gentle smile thinking of her youngest child.
Tsume walks towards the door heading out closing the door behind her, having not seen the shadow sinking into the floor in the corner of the room.
Inuzuka Clan Compound(Main house Twenty minutes later)
Walking up to the front door unlocking it allowing Kuromaru in first to keep the triplets from storming her holding Naruto. "Oi gakis back up, oh no you don't you three!" shouted Kuromaru as he turns sending his back right hind leg out in a kick knocking back the eager puppies, which launches them into the wall leaving a small crater. Which quickly alerts the newly made Chunin Hana that her ninken were up to something.
Hana exits the kitchen having warmed up a bottle for her baby brother which she held in her arms suckling away quietly. She notices the small spider web crater in the wall sighing as her shoulder slumps down knowing she'll have to fix that in the morning. Looking down from the wall to the ground where three identical balls of gray fluff laid out with swirls in their eyes clearly knocked out cold. Shaking her head she at her ninken behavior. "Well I guess mom's home then, Kuromaru was that really necessary? I have to clean this up in the morning now."
Pouted out Hana having not wanted to waste her morning fixing a mess he made but knows her mother wouldn't take no for a answer. Speaking of her mother she turns to her instantly noticing the bundle in her arms. "Kaa-san what's that? Did you pick up a stray pup on the way home or some-" she never got to finish as Naruto made himself known with a loud piercing wail indicating he's hungry and wants to be fed. Of course everyone in the room ears rung loud from the shriek the little babe produced an with enhanced hearing meaning that it was much much louder to their extremely sensitive ears than normal. Cringing only slightly thanks to her years of training and being a Jounin Tsume recovered first.
"No Hana it's not a stray pup I found. Hokage-sama has tasked the clan with looking after Naruto here until he can find permanent housing for him. He's one of the orphans from tonight's disaster." She spoke as her heart clinched knowing she's lying to her daughter if only partially. She never liked lying to her kids or clan but with knowing the full extent of the law an thereof punishment for said law she wasn't risking the well being of her daughter. She sighs closing the door an moves past her partner into the kitchen to make a bottle for Naruto who's most likely hungry. "How was Kiba tonight? Not to fussy or anything I hope. Kami-sama knows he took his sweet time to enter this world. Where's your father by the way, he was here when I left."
Hana having knelt down next to her partners checking them out to ensure they weren't hurt to bad only to find their pride is the only thing hurting. She stands up walking back into the kitchen after her mother while feeding Kiba. "He was quiet up until the kyuubi attacked. The aura it put out had Kiba wailing loudly as if he was getting burned, once dad sealed his room with protective barrier Kiba quieted down an went back to sleep. After that dad went to the kennel to check on the mothers an their pups. He hasn't came back yet thou."
Once Naruto finished the bottle in record time Tsume place him on his stomach on her shoulder to gently pats his back til he burbs. She turns to her daughter after moving Naruto back into a one armed hold, she reaches out to take Kiba an put both boys to sleep. Hana hands over her baby brother to her mother then bids her good night as she heads to her room. Says her goodnight to her then makes her way to Kiba's nursery room, once in side she places both of them down smiling.
"Naruto I know you have a long hard road a head of you but I Tsume Inuzuka clan head of Inuzuka clan shall stand by you. For the sacrifice that your father and mother made for you, you saved countless lives tonight and the Inuzuka clan owns you a life-debt for it. I hope you and my son become friends, I get the feeling you are going to need as many as possible for the coming storm I foresee coming. Good night boys." spoke a heart broken but determined Tsume to her son and charge.
She turns on the mobile above the crib that gives off a dim light as soft music plays to lull them to sleep. The mobile it self had 5 shapes attached to it; a dog, Inuzuka clan symbol, Konoha symbol, Uzumaki swirl and the symbol for love. Remembers the day Kushina had given her this for her son as a gift, Kushina was so proud of it she couldn't contain her excitement. She says a small prayer for her friend and her husband then leaves to her room to sleep after having Kuromaru sleep with the boys just having a bad filling. Unbeknownst to her she had no clue how right she was later that night.
Inuzuka Clan Compound (One hour later)
"Warui are you sure about this? Shouldn't we try and kill the demon when its out in the village. I mean it'll be hard to kill it while its in Inuzuka-sama's house." Spoke a thin tall short cropped hair man with black eyes.
Warui a bulky man of medium height with long green hair and brown eyes turns to his friend leveling a glare at him. "Tokage if we don't kill it now it will corrupt Inuzuka clan and grow stronger later as it grows. The council tasked us with the job since all the other high level chunins an jounins are working around the clock on patrols an clean up. We'll be seen as heroes and will get promoted to Jounin finally."
With his speech now steeling his friends nervous and determination they quickly bypass the few patrolling guards an bee-lined it for the house. Which was easy since Tokage was a sensor shinobi, he quickly found the room where the demon was in. Nodding his head to his friend to which way they stealthily scaled the house to the nursery, Warui opened the window an slide in side followed by Tokage, taking stock of the room to look for their target.
(Two minutes earlier flashback)
Kuromaru woke up when foreign scents wafted across his nose. His nostrils flared as a growl emits from his chest at the smell of burning rubber an asphalt stings his nose. Only one emotion smells like that, and that's hatred Kuromaru never liked that smell for how awful it smelt an burned his nose. Kuromaru instantly stands up as he sends a pulse of chakra towards his partner's room, the pulse being weak as to not be detected. He soon felt a pulse echo back telling him his call was heard loud and clear, slipping into the shadows waiting for the trespassers to enter. Kuromaru's wait didn't take long as the first fool slips in side who was quickly joined by another, seeing as no more were coming through he slinks around behind the would-be assailants as Tsume kawarimi with a piece of clothing for Kiba. Both now behind their own target their eyes start to glow in eerily way, unbeknownst to the men.
"See I told you Tokage it would be easy to get in here after all. Can't believe my clan was this easy to get around, oh well once we kill the demon the clan will have to make me clan head. When I'm clan head I'll show that bitch Tsume who is the alpha." Chuckled Warui already thinking of Tsume on her hands and knees with him behind her breeding her like the bitch she is.
Tokage starts to feel uneasy as the room slowly feels with chakra almost like smoke. A whimper escapes him feeling very much like prey his friend thou paid it no mind having been lost in his thoughts. Tsume having heard what her clansman said feels disgusted and anger that one of her own would attack a child. Kuromaru wasn't fairing much better having smelt the desire coming off in thick waves at the mention of Tsume. Tsume took that exact moment to speak up scaring Tokage to his core.
"Is that so Warui Inuzuka. So you think attacking a innocent child will make the clan give you leadership?" Her voice echoed around the room giving nothing to her location.
"If that is what you think then I guess I'll have to stop you." With that She and Kuromaru struck with speed and precision then either man could comprehend. Tsume delivering chop to the back of Tokage's neck having smelt no malice coming from him, Kuromaru surged forward clamping his jaws around Warui's left wrist tightly. Warui attempt to shake the dog free but Kuromaru had greater strength than this wannabe alpha, Kuromaru having enough of this pathetic pup's attempts quickly snapped his head to the side. Shattering Warui's wrist leaving him unable to do anything but grab his arm as he fell to his knees an scream out his pain.
"Y-you bitch I'll make you pay for this." Warui spoke with as much bravado as he could muster while inwardly swearing having not expected her to be here.
She sneers down at him as she makes a shadow clone. "Go inform Hokage-sama of the events that have happen here. I'll take care of this worm." The clone nods her head an takes out the very same window Warui and Tokage used to get in.
Tsume pulls out ninja wire from her pocket as Kuromaru surges forward once more taking hold of Warui neck preventing him from escaping. Which allows her to tie his hands behind his back. No sooner as she had an checked on the boys Hokage and a squad of anbu appeared in the room.
"Tsume-san is everything alright? Are Kiba and Naruto hurt? And where are the assassins?" Fired Sarutobi one after another as he surveyed the room.
"Kiba and Naruto are just fine they never made it to the crib. The would be assassins are over there with Kuromaru. One of them is a clansman the other I do not know. I am so thankful I listened to my gut an left Kuromaru in here Hokage-sama."
Nodding to his anbu they make their way over to the two shinobi, two each grabbing an arm an shunshin's away.
"They will be taken care of Tsume-chan I am sorry this had happen." the aged Hokage spoke feeling deep sadness.
"Hokage-sama if I may do not punish them yet. I would like to make a formal renouncement of Warui tomorrow for his actions against a civilian. I want him to be healthy for it before his execution." She requested of the Hokage.
Having saw no issue with it he grants her requests before leaving having sent orders to Ibiki to not harm Warui until tomorrow. "If that is all Tsume-chan we shall leave an bid you good night."
Next Morning Daimyo Palace (morning)
"Oi Mikoto lemme go." Spoke a tall red headed omega as in a hoarse voice grumbling about her alpha latched onto her in a vice grip. "Mikoto come on! I gotta go!" as she attempts to break her hold which never budged. Nao huffs knowing she can't kawarimi with anything since her mate's bracers block absorbs chakra on contact. She curses her self for giving them to her. Of course it's her own fault for having Miyu make them for her s a gift to Mikoto, sighing she tries to think of another way to free her self from her grasp. A few seconds later a light-bulb goes off above her head as her lips curl up into a smirk, slowing but deliberately grinds her center against her alpha's stomach teasingly. Her voice dropping a few octaves lower an comes out huskily.
"Mi-Ko-To don't you want to wake up and play with me?" her sultry voice caressed the other girl's ear.
Of course Nao reply to her question wasn't what she expected or at least not fully expected from her mate. A deep growl seeped from the smaller girl's chest which vibrated off the walls making it echo loudly, arms around her tighten an before Nao had even a moment to process what was about to happen. The smaller girl now seeing so much larger sprung into action as if on autopilot while Nao fines herself on her back an her very much running on instincts alpha making herself home between her thighs. Nao curses herself from forgetting their little night of fun from last night leaving them both as nude as the day they were born. Small whimpers escape her lips as she feels her alpha's large member graze against her center, but lady luck was not on Nao's side this morning those whimpers she made only spurred her mate's on wards.
Outside Nao's and Mikoto's bedroom
The few guards and maids passing the room stop as a thunderous bang sounds from their room an shouting. "O-o-oii! Chott-t-t-to matte Mikotooooo" one of the only intelligible phrase anyone could understand.
But clearly everyone understood what was happening behind the door as loud growls, moans and more bangs in rapid repetition resound from the room. The guards quickly departed from their spot to leave the area or face the wrath of a alpha if caught. The maids blushes brightly as they stand by the door since they were sent to deliver a message to Yuuki-san but were not brave enough to interrupt what was going on inside the room.
Dining Room
"Ara Ara good morning everyone I hope you all slept well." a very cheerful voice much to the annoyance of half the room including her own sensai.
"Oi Shi-chan it's far to early to be this cheery dial it down a bit yeah?" Ichirou spoke gruffly as he dishes food onto his plate.
His comment was followed by a chorus of agreement in the form of mumbles and groans. Never one to take offense to much of anything Shizuru took it all in stride with a smile knowing they didn't mean any of it. She sits down next to her grumpy little omega puppy(yea that's right Natsuki is the omega :P) who was busy stuffing her face with anything an everything insight which wasn't an unusual sight to everyone seeing as Natsuki is about seven months pregnant after all. Shizuru smiles fondly at her wife remembering the day she told her they were expecting pups but alas Natsuki has other things in mind an tosses a piece of toast at Shizuru who prompt catches it from years of experience an simply butters it. Natsuki grunts in slight annoyance noting two people missing.
"Oi Mai where's Mikoto and spider at?" Natsuki turns to her friend Mai with a questioning gaze.
Mai looks around the room and was surprised to see the table still filled with food, usually by now the cooks would have already refilled the table at lest seven times now so everyone could have a full stomach. Finding it still full and the cooks confused as they had already prepared the second wave to only find a full table.
"I don't know Natsuki I asked a maid to collect them a hour ago before the food was brought out. I'll go see what kept them." Mai said in a confused tone as she stands from the table an heads towards the double doors only to be halted as one of the maids she sent enters.
"Ohayou Gozaimasu Maid-san did you-" Mai was swiftly cut off by the maid.
"Mai-sama, Nao-sama and Mikoto-sama are um-mm-m busy right now and will join you all when they finish." A red faced Maid stuttered out in a fluster before disappearing.
Mai along with everyone else simply blinks as they watch the maid practically run out of the dining hall and away from them. Doesn't take long before Shizuru figures it out an simply smiles an drinks her tea. "Ara Ara it seems this morning Mikoto-chan and Yuuki-san are doing "this and that" this morning. Perhaps we should leave them be for now an continue on with getting to know the Kaguya clan?" she ends with a tilt of her head.
Everyone there minus the Kaguya clan blushed brightly then looks away from everyone. Mai nods her head as she swift reclaims her set next to Reito. Umeko merely blinks at the conversation but helps her son and new daughter into chairs before she prepares their plates for them. Smiling at the two never believing she'd end up married to a man she barely knew in the academy and a mother to a little girl. But she isn't a Jounin for nothing she takes everything in stride regardless to how asinine or strange they may be.
"What would you like to know Kuga-san?' Chikane spoke in a even voice as she pulls out a chair for her wife who blushes brightly before sitting down.
"Ara Ara now now we are to post to be family remember you can call me Shizuru-chan or Nee-chan." She smiles at Chikane as she giggles playfully.
To Be continued.
