The Snake Lord's Family

By: Avalon Nakamura

The council was in an uproar. The worst possible thing could have happened. Years ago, they were betrayed by Jiraiya when he attacked his own pupil during the Kyuubi's attack and now Jiraiya was labeled a missing Ninja. Then, the Fourth Hokage was lost in the battle with the fox. The city had been repaired and they had peace with the newly reinstated Third Hokage. But now the worst thing happened. They were betrayed by Uchiha Itachi and he had massacred his entire clan save for his little brother who was traumatized by the event. Now in the council room, they were deliberating what to do with the young boy.

"Allow me to take him into my organization. With him in my group, we will have a guarantee he would never betray this village!"

This was spoken by one of the three elders of the village, the one known as Danzo. He was the leader of the Anbu as well as the leader of the group known as The Foundation. He wanted the Uchiha to train him to be the perfect weapon to use. He had been trying to get the other being the village wanted rid of but they continued to reject it. He also wanted to get a hold of the boy known as Uzumaki Naruto.

"Ku Ku Ku..." The soft laugh brought the council to a hushed silence as soft foot steps could be heard coming from the direction of the laugh.

"You wish him for the better of the village, Danzo-san?" A raspy voice could be heard as it stopped in the shadows. Most of the Council recognized whom the voice belonged to and wisely silenced themselves completely but Danzo refused to be quiet.

"Yes! I do. And this is a private meeting! Who do you think you are intruding..."

This time, Homura and Koharu glared harshly at Danzo who shut his mouth as the person entered into the light. His reptilian eyes and pale white skin gave him away immediately.

"I am insulted, Danzo....You do not even remember my name."

Danzo's one good eye tripled in size when he beheld the second strongest of the Sannin standing in the council room, his long black hair falling neatly behind him as his light airy kimono hung loosely on his shoulders. He had taken to wearing a large purple rope tied around his waist and the Konoha symbol on his pants.

"Orochimaru-sama..." Danzo lowered his head in respect. Even the three elders knew not to cross the Sannin. They were the ones who had saved Konoha countless times. But for now, Orochimaru was the only one who still made Konoha his home. Danzo also seen the little girl behind Orochimaru holding tightly to his shirt. It was his daughter Anko. Danzo remembered Orochimaru had a little girl and that her mother had died when both her and Orochimaru went to try and bring Jiraiya back. Jiraiya had charged a Rasengan to full power and went after Orochimaru until his wife jumped in the way and died from the attack. Orochimaru had changed that day. He had become more cold and calculating but he proved to be a remarkable ally to Konoha and a person they often respected more than even the Elders.

"I have come here to the council to propose an idea..."

The three elders looked at the Snake Sannin they were curious as to why he would come to the Council. He usually stayed at his mansion and avoided the big issues pertaining to Konoha choosing to stay to himself and only come when needed.

"Speak your Idea, Orochimaru-sama..."

This was spoken by the old woman known as Koharu. Her years were evident on her face She considered Orochimaru a hero and would be honored to hear his thoughts on what should be done with the boy.

"Very well, Koharu-san...I simply propose this. I wish to adopt him as my son. My daughter Anko here is only 12 and she is in the academy. However, she is not well liked, given that I am her father. Most of the children are afraid of her. I wish to adopt the Uchiha boy into my family. He will keep the name Uchiha but he will be recognized as my adopted son."

Koharu smiled lightly at this idea she knew if Orochimaru was the Uchiha's adopted father, he would have more protection then the council could ever give him. She agreed with his offer. She leaned over to Homura and spoke with him those thoughts he nodded and she moved back to her chair and observed Orochimaru.

"We agree, Orochimaru, that you are allowed to adopt the boy. He should be..."

"Wait, Koharu-san. I also wish to adopt another and I will not take no for the answer. I wish to also adopt Uzumaki Naruto. I have witnessed the boy's mistreatment by the villagers and I for one am not going to ideally sit by anymore and allow it to continue. He was to be viewed as a hero. That was the Fourth's wish and I will adopt him also. Am I clear, Koharu?"

Koharu shuttered in fear. Orochimaru spoke and his aura of killer intent was enormous as he spoke. She knew she could not deny it. She didn't see the boy as the demon and wanted to do what she could. She often was overruled by the other clans, but now here was her chance to outwit Danzo and his little group.

"Ve-very well, Orochimaru-sama. You may adopt them both."

The snake Sanin smirked up at the three elders. He then nodded. "I refuse to allow either of the boys to grow up without a family like I did. This way they will have a father as well as an older sister. I will give the boys a chance to have a normal life and you will do this. I will not stand for the attacks I have witnessed on the boy. I had to go myself to the hospital with him before they would treat his wounds. This is a warning now, Koharu, Homura, and Danzo. You will order the villagers to never harm the boy or they will face the wraith of a Sannin. Am I clear?"

The three elders against cringed in fear at the words of what the villagers had done to one of their own. They soon nodded and lowered their heads. They knew that Orochimaru would not stand for mistreatment of the boy and then took out a scroll and stamped it.

"There you are, Orochimaru-sama. It has been decreed. You have adopted both Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto. They are now formally seen as your sons in the council. Further more, it has been decreed that any mistreatment of the boy will be punished severely by you. Is this satisfactory?"

Orochimaru smiled and turned walking away. "Indeed it is Koharu. Danzo...should you ever, and I mean ever, try to recruit my new sons, I will see to it you suffer more than a lost eye and arm..."

Danzo shivered in his chair as he lowered his head and watched as the little girl and her father left.

"Daddy?"

"Yes, Anko-chan?"

"Is Naru-kun and Sasu-kun my brothers now?"

Smiling at his little girl, he placed his hand on her head and ruffled her hair.

"Hai, they are, Anko-chan. We are going to find them and bring them home so they can see their new home and their new sister and father."

Smiling, she hugged her father and nodded happily. She always liked Naruto and Sasuke. She used to see the two of them sparring each other down by the lake and knew they would be down there.

"Daddy! They will be at the lake. This is the day they train!"

Smiling, Orochimaru nodded. "Lead the way, Anko-chan."

She grabbed his hand and began to lead him towards the lake, a smile still on her face as he laughed at her antics. She was like he was when he was a young boy. Soon though his smile disappeared when they reached the lake. He saw Naruto on the ground with Sasuke trying to help him as three villagers took turns kicking the boy.

"FUCKIN' GARBAGE! YOU SHOULD DIE!" The one kicking the young boy yelled soon though the three villagers gasped in horror as a sword impaled itself in the ground between them and Sasuke and Naruto.

"That's....NO!"

They turned to see the Snake Sanin standing there his eyes cold and hard.

"What is it you think you trash are doing?"

"We are killing the demon! He deserves death!"

"Really? I see no demon. I only see a young boy...The only demons I see are three adults who are getting off beating on a young boy. "

The three began to back away. And soon turned to run only to see Orochimaru pulling his sword out of the ground.

"In case you three haven't heard yet from the council...I have officially adopted these two as my sons...and they have given me permission to deal with the likes of you how I see fit. I think I could use three new Subjects for my experiments."

The three people went pale as they heard that. Orochimaru wasn't known to forgive those who he believed had wronged someone. They were in his sights. He opened his mouth and allowed the snake to come out as he put the sword away and swallowed the snake again he then grinned brightly.

"Let the others know. If you ever harm them, I will kill you or use you in my experiments. Am I clear?"

The three men took off in horror as Sasuke moved to help Naruto and checked his wounds as did Anko. He moved over to them. He observed the healing already had begun on Naruto.

"Well, this isn't the way I wanted to introduce myself; but, Sasuke-kun, I have officially adopted you and Naruto. As of right now, you two are adopted Brothers. I am Orochimaru. I am known as the Snake Sannin like you know. But now I am your adoptive father, and this is my daughter Anko. She is your new older sister. But before we continue the introductions, let's get Naruto to our house so he can rest and I can do some healing on him."

He kneeled down to pick Naruto up and Sasuke stared in disbelief. He had a family again and he wanted to cry but he quickly followed Anko and Orochimaru. His jaw dropped as they entered the biggest house he had seen since his family's old compound. He watched as Naruto was laid on the couch and slowly came to.

"Wha...Sasuke? Where...are we?"

"We are home Naruto..."

"Eh?"

Smiling, Orochimaru decided it was worth talking now. "Yes, Naruto-kun. I have adopted you and Sasuke-kun. You are now my sons. And this..." He motions towards Anko. "Is your new sister. My daughter Anko. So if it isn't too much of a shock....Welcome home."

"EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!?"
