Sasuke was awoken with a rapping at his window. Groaning Sasuke rolled over and stepped out of his bed, he walked to his window, he saw a note held beneath his window. The night sky was clear; the moon was high in the sky. Sasuke peeled the note out from beneath his window. His hands clenched the paper tight.

"Sasuke Uchiha, Lord Orochimaru has grown impatient, he wishes for your company. As a bargaining chip we have kidnapped one Hinata Hyuga, one is to make sure that Naruto Uzumaki does not follow. And another is for you to know, if you don't come, her death will be on your hands" the note read. Sasuke tensed, Naruto was gone, as was Shikamaru. Sasuke ran to his cupboard, throwing on his high collard blue shirt, his white shorts and kunai pouch. He ran to the Hokage's office, his speed faster than he had ever run before. He landed on the windowsill of the hokage's office; Tsunade was talking to a furious Hiashi Hyuga and a few of the Hyuga clan, including Neji. Sasuke opened the window and climbed through.

"Who the hell do you think you are, climbing through my window like that?" growled Tsunade, Sasuke held out the note; Tsunade snatched it from him. She read through it quickly, her eyes narrowing.

"Tsunade-hime, what is it?" questioned Hiashi Hyuga, Tsunade sighed and flopped into her chair.

"Orochimaru has kidnapped Hinata" said Tsunade, Hiashi felt his heart thump unevenly; he sat in the chair in front of Tsunade.

"I knew she was gone! Wait until I get back, did he say why?" questioned Hiashi, Tsunade looked at Sasuke.

"He says he will trade Sasuke for Hinata" said Tsunade, Neji frowned.

"But that doesn't make sense, what does she have to do with Sasuke?" questioned Neji, Tsunade sighed and gave a Neji a look.

"It's to make sure Naruto doesn't interfere" said Tsunade, Hiashi looked confused.

"Why would Orochimaru care about Naruto" questioned Hiashi, Tsunade sighed.

"Orochimaru feels very threatened by Naruto, Naruto is by all extension the strongest ninja in the world" said Tsunade, Hiashi frowned.

"How so?" questioned Hiashi, Tsunade motioned for everyone else to leave, once the door was closed, Tsunade activated the seal and the room shimmered slightly.

"This information has not been made public Hiashi, Naruto has told me a lot about himself, he and his grandfather, his biological one, had a very long talk about Naruto's bloodline. Many people have wondered how Naruto obtained the Sharingan, the answer is simple. He is from the direct blood of the third son, of the sage of six paths." Said Tsunade, Hiashi looked confused.

"I thought the sage of six paths was a myth" questioned Hiashi, Tsunade smiled slightly.

"You of all people should not discredit such notions, the doujutsu came from him. Anyway, Naruto comes from the undiluted bloodline of the sage, through his Uzumaki blood. But he has access to much more than he knows, for he is also blood related into the Senju clan through Minato, Minato's father also has a shifty background that needs to be researched." Said Tsunade, Hiashi looked shell shocked.

"So Naruto has access to every doujutsu" questioned Hiashi, Tsunade nodded.

"But Naruto also has so much more; he has the body, will and power of the sage. Naruto is the Sage's reincarnation, and that is the power Orochimaru fears" said Tsunade, Hiashi frowned.

"The sharingan is not the final stage is it?" questioned Hiashi, Tsunade shook her head.

"No, he devolved from the Rinnegan, the legendary doujutsu, he now has to unlock back to that" said Tsunade, Hiashi frowned slightly.
