Prologue

Tsunade was finally retiring after this one last briefing.

The war had not been kind to Konoha. Many had died, the village was merely a shell of its former self. Already the two tails, three tails, and six tails had attacked the village. It was a massacre.

But there was a hope, the faintest glimmer of hope, but she was clinging to it as though it were all she had.

Sunagakure was desperate as well. There would be an alliance, something more precious than any shinobi. In the time and age where allies were so scarce, it was a beacon of hope.

To seal the deal they were to create a blood tie.

Arranged Marriage

Her ninja's knew their duty. Two girls were to be sent over to marry the current Kazekage's son and next Kazekage, and the other was to marry his brother. In turn they were sending over the next Kazekage's sister to marry Naruto, their next Hokage. Once the wedding took place, Tsunade and the current Kazekage were to step down, and the two upcoming shinobi would take their place.

They were sending over Yamanaka Ino to marry the Kazekage. Though it was a blow to lose the mind powers of the Yamanaka clan, it was necessary.

Tenten would be sent over as well, a girl of no major clans, she was strong and that was good enough for Suna.

There was also the case of the Hyuuga and Uchiha clans. Kekkei Genkais were a rare commodity now days. All that was left of the Uchiha Clan was Uchiha Sasuke, and the only living members of the Hyuuga clan, were the genius Hyuuga Neji, Hyuuga Hinata, and Hyuuga Hanabi. All the others were wiped out by war and beasts.

There would have to be arranged marriages in the village as well. Konoha was thirsting for powerful ninja as someone thirsts for water.

Variety was needed, she was giving her protégée Haruno Sakura, to Hyuuga Neji. She hoped the marriage would produce Byakugan users with incredible strength, charka control, and medical prowess.

Hyuuga Hinata was set to be married to Uchiha Sasuke. Tsunade hoped for new stronger Dohjutsu, or at the very least many Sharingan and Byakugan users.

It was simple.

But she wasn't really too pleased about informing the newly weds.

A/N: I know crack pairings. The plot line is fairly interesting though if you're willing to stick with the story. Please review?
