Chapter 2; Welcome to the leaf village!
Harry didn’t know how long he cried.. He just knew that when he started, he just couldn’t bring himself to stop…
Maybe it was because there was no one else around.. Well, no one alive at least.. Maybe it was because of all he had gone through recently or all he had gone through his entire life, he wasn’t sure.. Maybe it was just because he really needed it.
Besides, he couldn’t remember the last time he cried. Well, when Sirius and Cedric died, yes.. But before that he had no clue. All he knew was once he started crying, the tears seemed to keep on flowing. He didn’t even realize how load he was being or long he had been at it…
He was alive, but as of this moment.. He was completely, totally, and utterly alone…
___________
Shikaku could only be described as “Gruff”. From his rough scars, (one just above and barely missing his right eye, and the his cheek just missing his lip) to his old torn and spotted dark-hide jacket that had lost all it’s hemming and stitching years ago. Leaving his arms, that where once covered by sleeves, exposed. He had every been seen by a Englishmen or a American, he would been immediately labeled as a country-boy, a red-neck or a mountain man..
But here, in the Leaf village, He was just another Nara. Another person from the clan that lived off the forest, raised and tended to all animals and plants that lived with them. The clan made famous for the medicines, food pills, poisons and all other things that they learned from it. The only clan in all of Fire country to be awarded with a large piece of land from the Feudal Lord of Fire himself, in order to continue there work in Secrecy and safety.
Shikaku himself had just gotten done welcoming home the newest member of his clan; his own newborn son, Shikamaru. It was then, when walking back to bed from the dining room when he heard it. For a second, he had thought it was his son, but after taking a quick peek into the nursery from the corridor, Shikaku knew that it was NOT Shikamaru that was crying…
And then Shikaku realized the cries he was hearing where also not coming from a newborn.. But the cries of a toddler, not even a year old… then, when listening to the direct the cry was coming from, Shikaku realized that the cries weren’t even coming from his house.. but coming from the deeper parts of the Nara forest itself. The Clan-only section of the Nara woods.
What in the hell was a child doing in the middle of the Nara woods in the Dead of Night?
“Shikaku…” spoke Yoshino, his wife. She had somehow managed to sneak up next to him and it was obvious that she must have heard it as well.
Shikaku looked to his wife, and nodded. “Grab Shikamaru, and go. I’m going to find out what’s going on..” Immediately took of into the deep part of the woods.
__________
Harry thought he heard a falling of footsteps, and finally was able to started quieting down.. He was still sobbing a bit, and breathing hard, but the noise he had been making had gone down considerably. Was someone coming?.. Was where someone else nearby?.. Harry wanted to wipe away his tears, but all he could do in his move his arms back and forth with his tiny hands, and have the cloth soak them up.
Yes, it was definitely footsteps, and he definitely heard someone. They seemed to be getting closer to where Harry and Tonks where. Harry tried to lift his head to see what was going on, but he was ether to wrapped up or his neck was to week to be able to do it.
Was the person looking for Harry? Did he hear his crying, and decide to come running? If so, Harry was saved.. But Harry couldn’t help but wonder if that was a good thing or a bad thing.. He would be found, yes, but what would happen after that?..
Where would go? Where would he live? It was obvious that he was a young child, maybe even a baby, so there was no way he’d be able to take care of himself…
And who would be making those decisions for him? Would it be another Dumbledore?..
Even as relief and hope started to worm its way ever so slightly into Harry’s heart… distrust and fear fallowed..
~Just play dead and stay still, you bloody Puppet..~ a voice hissed from inside his head. ~that shouldn’t be TO hard of a task for you, should it?…~
Harry inwardly bristled at Voldermort’s words.. Harry wasn’t that much of a Idiot that he needed to be told what to do. And what in the Hell did he mean by calling Harry a ‘Puppet?..’ Bastard…
“kon nichiwa?..” A deep man’s voice said from not far away. Well, that DEFINITLY wasn’t English… That was a Asian language.. Chinese? No, Chinese was harsher and blunt… this language flowed better. Japanese? Harry tried to stifle his sobs as he listened closer to the word the man was speaking.
“Sumimasen?… Oba-san?.. Ogenkidesu ka?” San.. that gave it away. Harry couldn’t understand a word he was saying, but Hermione had talked to him once about Japanese Honorifics.. ‘San’ was one of them…
Whoa, wait, Holy shit, Was he in JAPAN?!!
“Oba-san… Do-shimashita-ka?…” The person said, as he kneeled next to Tonk’s body.. It was then the man noticed Harry.. And noticed Tonk’s lifeless eyes. Shock and Horror showed on his face again as Harry looked up to him with wide, water-filled eyes.
“KAMI-SAMA!!” The Man then yelled, grabbing up Harry swiftly in one arm, as the second went to Tonk’s neck. Taking vitals.. Harry didn’t hold any hope, though. He already knew.. She was dead. The man’s face fell even further. He had just found that out himself. He looked at Harry with pained eyes.
“Gomen-nasai, Chibi-chan.. Gomen Nasai..”
Shikaku then grabbed the stag-antler horn he had at his side, put it to his lips, and sounded a alarm to the rest of the Nara clan. Two short bursts (comrade murdered). Then one long burst (enemy lose on land). Less then 10 seconds later, other horns sounded in return… Moments later, Alarms went off all over the leaf village.
__________
The next hour saw members of the Nara clan, Ambu, and Konoha Jonin searching the Nara woods. High, low, and in every fox-hole and tree gap there was. Yet, even with every with flashlight relevant jutsu in use, no one could seem to find any trace of the killer what so ever.
Not one member of the Nara clan was happy. Because of the murdered person in there mist, orphaned child they left behind, the murder trespassing upon there land, And all of the Idiot Jonin startling there Deer… Not to mention that the new clan heir’s welcoming feast had been ruined, but that only seemed to be upsetting the Elders of the Clan.
Shikaku was busy keeping the child in one arm, while directing the other ninjas around the scene of the murder with the other. So far, nothing of importance had been found. Except the scene of the murder itself, the body, and the living baby child was found with it.
Shikaku sighed, and looked at the little being in his arms, as he shifted and whined a little. Two little eyes peered at in the darkness, seeming to pout at him. Shikaku tucked the wrapping around him a little tight, hoping that getting a little warmer would improve his mood.
“Yes, Chibi-chan… What’s wrong?..” The ninja asked him. The baby just seemed to glance at him, looking even more pathetic. Apparently the wrapping was not the problem..
“What?… What, What, What?” He said, fearing the baby was about to burst into tears.
A chuckling from behind him caught his attention. From behind him a Female AMBU was covering her mouth over her mask. Shikaku raised his eyebrow as the female chuckled more.
“The baby is probably hungry, Nara-san.. We have been out here a few hours already..”
“Oh…” Shikaku said, then look down at the little baby again. Green eyes shining at him once more.
“Do you think you could..” he started, and the Female medical nin that was looking over the fallen woman’s body. She smiled and nodded quickly.
“Sure thing. The baby needs to be examined anyway. Just give me a moment, Nara-sama. Cat-chan, could you go get some formula from the Hospital, please?” The Ambu then nodded, and took off towards Konoha hospital.
Shikaku sighed, a feeling of trepidation filling him as he watched the medic nin finish her examination. He suddenly wished he hadn’t ordered his wife and son into hiding. But he knew it was for the best. It was then that he looked forward, and caught the attention of the Ambu and Jonin that where looking over the Scene of the crime, and there the medic nin was now taking off her gloves.
“Well?.. What do you have?..”
“Good news, bad news, and worse news…” the medic Nin said, now stepping forward, and taking the child from Shikaku into her own hands.
“The good news is the Woman wasn’t tortured or harmed in anyway before she died.. If I didn’t know any better, I’d say her heart just stopped…” the Medic said, now laying the child in front of her, and unwrapping the child carefully from his bindings.
“The Bad news is that the condition of her body, namely a recently distended uterus and a fractured pelvis, proves that she did infact give birth… about half a year ago… So the baby should be around 6 months.” The medic nin then looked over the baby’s size and nodded. “We have to get exact measurements, But the age seems right..” The medic then took a light,
“And the worse news?….”
“She isn’t a Ninja…”
“WHAT?!!” A Jonin and a Nara clan member yelled out. The baby jumped at this, and looked more scared then he had before. Shikaku bit his tongue to stop himself from lashing out at the two idiots. As the medic nin looked over the Toddlers body, moving the light she held in her hand whatever part she was looking over, so she didn’t miss anything.
“I examined her body thoroughly; the charka paths where narrow and Immature.. This woman has never learned or used any form of jutsu in her life..”
“She’s a Civilian...” Shikaku said, Looking down at the baby as the medic nin looked him over.
“Yep…” The medic nin responded, eyes not moving from the little bundle of flesh in front of her, even as she turned him over on his stomach to check the rest of him.
“Outside of the belongings found with her, there’re nothing. No signs of a struggle or a fight..” A new ambu said, as he landed a respectful distance behind Shikaku. “No broken traps, no discarded weapons, no signs of an altercation at all…”
“So, she was killed else where, and the murderer dropped her body here?”
“Seems so…” The Medic nin said, as she quickly Re-wrapped the baby, to protect him from the cold. She then picked him up, and back into her arms. “It’s a boy… He has no cuts, scraps, or scars. Diaper’s clean, no rashes or cradle cap.. Outside of being a bit hungry, he seems to have been well taken care off.”
“But that doesn’t make any sense… Why?..” One of the Ambu spoke, looking to the medic Nin. “Why would someone go through the trouble of murdering a mother, sneaking in covertly into restricted Nara land, and dropping off the body, but leave the child alive?…”
“Maybe the murderer couldn’t bring himself to kill the baby..” Shikaku said. It seemed reasonable enough to him.
“Maybe he figured the child would be better off on it’s own…” a Jonin added.
“Maybe because his clan would have killed the mother, Child, AND him anyway; and at least this way, he could save his child’s life…” The medic nin said, causing all eyes to fall on her.
“What?…” Said Ambu, Jonin, and Nara alike. The medic nin then moved the child to the crook of her arm, so that his face was looking out.
“Take a closer look at his eyes… I think you’ll find something very interesting.” Shikaku, and the Ambu both moved closer. The medic nin moved her light higher, but at an angle so that it could shine down on the baby boy without shining into his eyes, causing discomfort.
“Holy-”
“Kami-Sama!”
“How did we miss this?…”
Shikaku then bit his lip in anger, as he then and looked to two lower Nara clansmen.
“Get the heads of the Uchiha and Hyuuga clans right away.. Tell them to meet me at the Hokage tower immediately.”
“Hai…” The two said, both taking off immediately. Nether of them needing (Or wanting) to be told twice.
Shikaku then looked to the Medic nin. “I’m going to go ahead and inform the Hokage...”
“Hai. Go on ahead. I’ll get him there as soon as possibly, Nara-Sama..”
_________
Fugaku Uchiha was the dark haired, thick-chinned and bossy chief of the Konoha Military Police and head of the Uchiha clan. One of the founding clans of village of Konoha. He had completely black eyes, from Pupil to Iris. Only the Whites of his eyes where free of the Blackness. And even then, with his slanted eyes, they where hard to see.
Hiashi Hyuuga was a long-haired, thin chinned bossy head of the main branch as well the head of the entire Hyuuga clan. Another of the founding clans of the village of Konoha. He was the opposite of Fugaku in everyway, Even to there eyes. A wide and pearly white with no Pupils or Iris to speak of. Just a thin line where the Radius of his ended. Even then, it was far larger then a normal eyes should be.
Needless to say, the two hated one another.
If it wasn’t for the long-standing debate over the rumor that the entire Uchiha clan was descendent from the Hyuuga clan, (Thus the Hyuuga believed the Uchiha clan owned there bloodline limit and there ENTIRE linage to them.) Then the fact that the Uchiha clan had a impressive and skilled child prodigy, Itachi Uchiha, as an heir while Hiashi and his wife (and his clan) remained heirless was more then enough to start animosity between the two.
Add that Mikoto Uchiha, Fugaku’s wife, was rumored to be expecting a SECOND son, and the animosity only grew. Fuel tossed on a bonfire, as it where.
One, with Well-trimmed hair just above his shoulders.
The other with long, curtain locks that reached his waist.
One, in a perfectly buttoned and pressed police uniform.
The other in a loose yet fitting yukata.
One, proudly displaying the Uchiha Fan on the shoulder of his jacket.
The other, the Hyuuga Candle-flame, right over his heart.
Yes, the two hated one another with the burning passion of a thousand suns.
But for now, the two sat next to one another in relative peace. Neither looking at one another, or even bothering to steal a sideways glance. Just silent animosity. A pleasant looking tea set up before them, and two other sitting mats in front of them where, more then likely, for the Hokage and the head of the Nara clan itself.
Not a word.. Not a glance.. Not even a move for the tea. Just silence. It was then that the large paper door was opened, showing the Hokage and Shikaku Nara. Both men gave a polite bow in response.
“Hokage-Sama, Nara-San.” Both men said, then went from bowing to sitting right back up.
The Third Hokage, Sarutobi then entered the room. Nodding to both the clan leaders, the older man took his seat at the table. Shikaku fallow promptly behind him.
“Thank both of you for joining us so quickly… since this is a matter of importance, time is of the essence.” Both black and white eyes grew attentive at these words. The Nara watching them both of them closely.
“May I ask if this has anything to do with the Alarm that was set off earlier today?..” Fugaku asked.
“Yes, as a matter of fact.. There was a, unfortunately, a murder tonight… On Nara land.”
Hyuuga reacted with shock, and Uchiha reacted with anger.
“Any leads or evidence?” Uchiha asked, always the investigator.
“Not at the moment, thought we are hoping you two would be able to help us with that..”
“How may the Hyuuga Clan be of service?..”
“By answering a simple question… You see, it was a woman that was killed in the Nara woods. A Civilian… But she had a child with her. Obviously the child of a Ninjia.”
To this, Fugaku’s eyes widened a little in thought, as the Hiashi’s eyes closed, as if in pain…
“The child had a Dojustsu…” Hiashi deduced. Hiashi felt his heart clench.. He hoped the answer was no. No, he PRAIED that the answer was no.. There had only been one birth this year in the Hyuuga clan where the mother had been a civilian…
His own Sister-in-law. She had given his Twin brother, Hizashi a son no less then 9 months ago… Hiashi had been summoned from his bed to this meeting, and he had left the house so fast he didn’t even bother to check in on his brother or his young nephew..
‘Neji… Little Neji..
“Yes.. The child was gifted with a Dojutsu. Which is why we contacted you both. We need figure out which clan the child was born from.” Fugaku’s eyes widened as he realized the implications of those words.
A Child.. An innocent child had been murdered.. Be it Hyuuga or Uchiha, it didn’t matter... A ninja child being murdered was insult enough… but a child with a Dojutsu, one of the rarest forms of blood limits, being murdered.. Fugaku was sure that all the clans of Leaf village would be screaming for blood once this got out.
“Was it.. A Boy?… Around 9 months old?…” Hiashi then forced himself to ask. I have to ask.. I have to know.. Fugaku face snapped to the Hyuuga as the Hokage and Nara both looked at him with wide, shocked eyes. The hokage had though that he was Hyuuga from the description that Shikaku had given.. But he hadn’t expected the Hyuuga head to say that…
Does this mean..
“The Medic-nin put him at around 6 Months old, but.. Yes, it is a boy.”
Hiashi would have preferred a Kunai to the back to the stab that pierced his heart.
“Hyuuga-san… I take it there is there a child in your clan around that age?..”
“Yes, Hokage-sama.. My nephew, Neji. He was born 9 months ago… He has the Byakugan.”
“We will settle this now, then..” The Hokage then nodded his head, as he looked to the door. “Mako-san. Bring the boy in.”
It was then that Mako Takahashi, field Medic nin, then walked in with a very much alive baby boy. Now Cleaned up and out of his wrappings, and in a infants white gauze Yukata with matching white cat-ear cap. Sucking on a bottle of baby formula, and seemed quite content to ignore the rest of the world.
Haishi and Fugaku both looked at the child at the same time.. Then, both turned to look into the little boys eyes. Both froze as there mouths dropped at the sight that was in front of them…
The child had two beautiful, breathtaking emerald green eyes..
But in the middle of the eyes, where the pupils were supposed to be, where two swirling green and black Yin-yang’s.
“Well, Hiashi-sama?…” Shikaku said, wanting a answer immediately..
“No.. No, no that is that is definitely NOT Neji…”
“Not Neji?…” Can a voice from the window. All four clan heads then looked to the silver haired, mask-wearing, Pain-in-the-neck AMBU Captain that now leaned against the window frame. Once again reading his favorite orange book.
“It you ask me…” Kakashi said, now lifting his head up, give his all-to familiar smile to the others in the room. “That’s not even the Byakugan…”

“Seems so…” The Medic nin said, as she quickly Re-wrapped the baby, to protect him from the cold. She then picked him up, and back into her arms. “It’s a boy… He has no cuts, scraps, or scars. Diaper’s clean, no rashes or cradle cap.. Outside of being a bit hungry, he seems to have been well taken care off.”
“But that doesn’t make any sense… Why?..” One of the Ambu spoke, looking to the medic Nin. “Why would someone go through the trouble of murdering a mother, sneaking in covertly into restricted Nara land, and dropping off the body, but leave the child alive?…”
“Maybe the murderer couldn’t bring himself to kill the baby..” Shikaku said. It seemed reasonable enough to him.
“Maybe he figured the child would be better off on it’s own…” a Jonin added.
“Maybe because his clan would have killed the mother, Child, AND him anyway; and at least this way, he could save his child’s life…” The medic nin said, causing all eyes to fall on her.
“What?…” Said Ambu, Jonin, and Nara alike. The medic nin then moved the child to the crook of her arm, so that his face was looking out.
“Take a closer look at his eyes… I think you’ll find something very interesting.” Shikaku, and the Ambu both moved closer. The medic nin moved her light higher, but at an angle so that it could shine down on the baby boy without shining into his eyes, causing discomfort.
“Holy-”
“Kami-Sama!”
“How did we miss this?…”
Shikaku then bit his lip in anger, as he then and looked to two lower Nara clansmen.
“Get the heads of the Uchiha and Hyuuga clans right away.. Tell them to meet me at the Hokage tower immediately.”
“Hai…” The two said, both taking off immediately. Nether of them needing (Or wanting) to be told twice.
Shikaku then looked to the Medic nin. “I’m going to go ahead and inform the Hokage...”
“Hai. Go on ahead. I’ll get him there as soon as possibly, Nara-Sama..”

Fugaku Uchiha was the dark haired, thick-chinned and bossy chief of the Konoha Military Police and head of the Uchiha clan. One of the founding clans of village of Konoha. He had completely black eyes, from Pupil to Iris. Only the Whites of his eyes where free of the Blackness. And even then, with his slanted eyes, they where hard to see.
Hiashi Hyuuga was a long-haired, thin chinned bossy head of the main branch as well the head of the entire Hyuuga clan. Another of the founding clans of the village of Konoha. He was the opposite of Fugaku in everyway, Even to there eyes. A wide and pearly white with no Pupils or Iris to speak of. Just a thin line where the Radius of his ended. Even then, it was far larger then a normal eyes should be.
Needless to say, the two hated one another.
If it wasn’t for the long-standing debate over the rumor that the entire Uchiha clan was descendent from the Hyuuga clan, (Thus the Hyuuga believed the Uchiha clan owned there bloodline limit and there ENTIRE linage to them.) Then the fact that the Uchiha clan had a impressive and skilled child prodigy, Itachi Uchiha, as an heir while Hiashi and his wife (and his clan) remained heirless was more then enough to start animosity between the two.
Add that Mikoto Uchiha, Fugaku’s wife, was rumored to be expecting a SECOND son, and the animosity only grew. Fuel tossed on a bonfire, as it where.
One, with Well-trimmed hair just above his shoulders.
The other with long, curtain locks that reached his waist.
One, in a perfectly buttoned and pressed police uniform.
The other in a loose yet fitting yukata.
One, proudly displaying the Uchiha Fan on the shoulder of his jacket.
The other, the Hyuuga Candle-flame, right over his heart.
Yes, the two hated one another with the burning passion of a thousand suns.
But for now, the two sat next to one another in relative peace. Neither looking at one another, or even bothering to steal a sideways glance. Just silent animosity. A pleasant looking tea set up before them, and two other sitting mats in front of them where, more then likely, for the Hokage and the head of the Nara clan itself.
Not a word.. Not a glance.. Not even a move for the tea. Just silence. It was then that the large paper door was opened, showing the Hokage and Shikaku Nara. Both men gave a polite bow in response.
“Hokage-Sama, Nara-San.” Both men said, then went from bowing to sitting right back up.
The Third Hokage, Sarutobi then entered the room. Nodding to both the clan leaders, the older man took his seat at the table. Shikaku fallow promptly behind him.
“Thank both of you for joining us so quickly… since this is a matter of importance, time is of the essence.” Both black and white eyes grew attentive at these words. The Nara watching them both of them closely.
“May I ask if this has anything to do with the Alarm that was set off earlier today?..” Fugaku asked.
“Yes, as a matter of fact.. There was a, unfortunately, a murder tonight… On Nara land.”
Hyuuga reacted with shock, and Uchiha reacted with anger.
“Any leads or evidence?” Uchiha asked, always the investigator.
“Not at the moment, thought we are hoping you two would be able to help us with that..”
“How may the Hyuuga Clan be of service?..”
“By answering a simple question… You see, it was a woman that was killed in the Nara woods. A Civilian… But she had a child with her. Obviously the child of a Ninjia.”
To this, Fugaku’s eyes widened a little in thought, as the Hiashi’s eyes closed, as if in pain…
“The child had a Dojustsu…” Hiashi deduced. Hiashi felt his heart clench.. He hoped the answer was no. No, he PRAIED that the answer was no.. There had only been one birth this year in the Hyuuga clan where the mother had been a civilian…
His own Sister-in-law. She had given his Twin brother, Hizashi a son no less then 9 months ago… Hiashi had been summoned from his bed to this meeting, and he had left the house so fast he didn’t even bother to check in on his brother or his young nephew..
‘Neji… Little Neji..
“Yes.. The child was gifted with a Dojutsu. Which is why we contacted you both. We need figure out which clan the child was born from.” Fugaku’s eyes widened as he realized the implications of those words.
A Child.. An innocent child had been murdered.. Be it Hyuuga or Uchiha, it didn’t matter... A ninja child being murdered was insult enough… but a child with a Dojutsu, one of the rarest forms of blood limits, being murdered.. Fugaku was sure that all the clans of Leaf village would be screaming for blood once this got out.
“Was it.. A Boy?… Around 9 months old?…” Hiashi then forced himself to ask. I have to ask.. I have to know.. Fugaku face snapped to the Hyuuga as the Hokage and Nara both looked at him with wide, shocked eyes. The hokage had though that he was Hyuuga from the description that Shikaku had given.. But he hadn’t expected the Hyuuga head to say that…
Does this mean..
“The Medic-nin put him at around 6 Months old, but.. Yes, it is a boy.”
Hiashi would have preferred a Kunai to the back to the stab that pierced his heart.
“Hyuuga-san… I take it there is there a child in your clan around that age?..”
“Yes, Hokage-sama.. My nephew, Neji. He was born 9 months ago… He has the Byakugan.”
“We will settle this now, then..” The Hokage then nodded his head, as he looked to the door. “Mako-san. Bring the boy in.”
It was then that Mako Takahashi, field Medic nin, then walked in with a very much alive baby boy. Now Cleaned up and out of his wrappings, and in a infants white gauze Yukata with matching white cat-ear cap. Sucking on a bottle of baby formula, and seemed quite content to ignore the rest of the world.
Haishi and Fugaku both looked at the child at the same time.. Then, both turned to look into the little boys eyes. Both froze as there mouths dropped at the sight that was in front of them…
The child had two beautiful, breathtaking emerald green eyes..
But in the middle of the eyes, where the pupils were supposed to be, where two swirling green and black Yin-yang’s.
“Well, Hiashi-sama?…” Shikaku said, wanting a answer immediately..
“No.. No, no that is that is definitely NOT Neji…”
“Not Neji?…” Can a voice from the window. All four clan heads then looked to the silver haired, mask-wearing, Pain-in-the-neck AMBU Captain that now leaned against the window frame. Once again reading his favorite orange book.
“It you ask me…” Kakashi said, now lifting his head up, give his all-to familiar smile to the others in the room. “That’s not even the Byakugan…”
