It was a cold and windy evening in the Hidden Leaf village. The trees were blowing in the wind, followed by the owls making noise. The very man who ruled the village sat in his office, going through a stack of papers.

He was a tan-skinned man with spiky grey hair and a small goatee with wrinkles on his face. He wore a red and white full-length kimono with a matching hat and haori.

A single candle was placed at the corner of his desk to keep the office lit as he finished his paperwork. He sighed as he tried to finish up the last of the paperwork.

A cloud of smoke then appeared in the room, causing the tan-skinned man to look up from the paperwork. His eyes scanned the room, looking for the culprit. He then spotted a familiar blonde hair woman.

"Tsunade," He said.

He moved the candle to get a better look and saw a tired expression on her face."It's been a while Sarutobi-sensei," She said.

A whimper caught Sarutobi's attention, and his eyes drifted down to see a small bundle in Tsunade's arms wrapped in a purple blanket. He noticed short raven hair showing from the blanket. Tsunade looked at the bundle, then back at Sarutobi.

"Sarutobi-sensei I need you to do something for me," Tsunade said.

Sarutobi took out his pipe and blew smoke out of it as he looked back up at Tsunade. She took his silence as a signal to continue talking. "I want you to take my daughter."

"What, why not keep her with you?" Sarutobi asked."You can't just leave her without you."

Tsunade looked at the little bundle and then back at Sarutobi."I don't want her. She is just a reminder of a mistake I made getting drunk nine months ago and getting pregnant with my and  Orochimaru's daughter," She stated with regret in her eyes about that night.

"So you're just going to abandon her? Does Orochimaru even know she exists?" Sarutobi asked.

"Yes, I want nothing to do with her hair, put her in the orphanage or something, and no, he doesn't. I left before he woke up," She replied as the bundle moved, turning to face Sarutobi.

Sarutobi's eyes widened as he saw the baby girl's pale skin, black hair, and brown snake eyes with lilac markings above them. The baby girl let out a cry as Tsunade headed her to Sarutobi."Take her and raise her are put her up for adoption. It doesn't matter."

"So you're really going to just abandon her? Did you at least name her?" Sarutobi asked, putting his pipe away as he grabbed the baby girl.

"Jakucho Senju is her name, but whoever takes care of her is more than welcome to change her name. I don't care. Just do something with her," Tsunade said, getting ready to leave.

"So you are going to give her Tsunade because of her being born from you being drunk," Sarutobi said as the baby girl started crying as she felt her mother leaving."She was not even more than a day old, and she already misses you," He said, rocking Jakucho, trying to calm her down.

"It's better for me if she is here and not with me. Do whatever you want with her," Tsunade said as she disappeared into a cloud of smoke.

Sarutobi sighed as he looked at Jakucho, who was now sleeping peacefully in his arms, wrapped in her purple blanket. He then summoned an ANBU wearing a dog mask.

"You summoned me, Lord Third?" The ANBU asked, kneeling on the floor.

"Inu, take young Jakucho here to the orphanage here," He said, holding Jakucho for the ANBU to see.

"If you don't mind me asking, who child is she exactly?" He asked, noticing the raven hair but couldn't see the rest of her face.

"She is the daughter of Tsunade and Orochimaru, but Tsunade wants nothing to do with her, so she joining the orphanage, but her father is to stay an S-rank secret from the younger generation for the sake of her childhood," He explained, giving Jakucho to the dog ANBU.

"I understand. I make sure nobody tells the younger generation about her father so she can have a good childhood and make friends," He bowed before leaving to take the baby girl to the orphanage.

Here is the prologue to my very first story. I hope you enjoy it.
