A/N: I have no right to have any of you to believe me when I say that I hope to have this finished soon. But that is the plan, it took me forever to get back into the writing mood after the last chapter was posted almost a year ago, but something happened and I have been in physical therapy. I am fine now but have not had that much ability to do much of anything with my hands so I hope I can continue on this path. As you can imagine this has not been beta'd and I'll be honest in that I kind of don't care. That's a terrible idea and I, as someone who should take pride in his work, am angry but hey I want this out there. It's short i admit, and after what i said in the previous chapter about having 3k words i feel like an ass but hey.

She hated not having her husband in bed with her to snuggle up to at night. The other two women in he bed could never be a substitute for the warmth that their husband's body gave. So it came rather easily for her to get ready for the day.

Thinking back on it the redhead had never had any idea that she'd be a mother let alone sharing a husband with two other women. Or the fact that said husband was that loudmouthed idiot she fought against all those years ago. Even if he still was a louthmouthed idiot. She absently rinsed her hair under the showerhead, she knew it was bad for her hair's health but dammit if it didn't wake her up in the morning!

She toweled off and walked out of the bathroom back into the room naked as when she woke up. Passing by her husband's second wife with quick and sleepy morning kiss; another interesting change she thought as she quickly toweled her hair; while she was always attracted to men and had never found women attractive in that sense; she slept with the other wives whenever Naruto wasn't around. And she wasn't exactly sure how she felt about that.

Given the choice she would always want Naruto, but there were times when she would just as easily love both Karin and Hisoka. Even better occasionally he watched them, the thrill of her husband watching as she pleasured her sister-wives was indescribable. The anticipation of waiting for him to take either of them at that moment made her eyes glaze over.

A quick swat to her bottom from Karin knocked her out of her perversions. She quickly finished dressing herself hoping that today would be a normal day unlike yesterday with the attack by Konoha AnBu. Since Naruto trusted Tsunade so much Tayuya knew it wasn't normal AnBu and so had to be Danzo's loyalists that thought made her sigh deeply he had been a thorn in Naruto's side for the last few years.

"What are you thinking about now?" Karin asked as she wrapped her arms around Tayuya and started to nibble her neck.

"I'm wondering if Sagura was able to get anything out of that AnBu we captured yesterday. I'm positive that it's one of Danzo's ploys to off Shithead." with the mood killed they took comfort in the embrace neither knowing what to say. Both were scared for their children and knew Naruto would never let anything happen to them. It was for that reason alone that Naruto had hid his family for a decade. With the council finally coming to an agreement that Naruto would be the best choice for Hokage, it presented him with the best opportunity to introduce his family; and permently remove his enemies from within the village. And Yondaime's legacy or not no village would directly attack a kage's family.

Both women jumped as the bathroom door slammed open. "Oh come on! We got all gloomy yesterday and I let you since we hadn't seen him in awhile. But not today everything is falling into place and we have to make sure everything on our end is clear. So get off your asses and get ready we're packing up earlier to catch up with everyone else."

And like the force of nature that she was Hisoka had forced them to get ready in record time. And so the dressed as the elegent matriarchs of the Uzumaki-Namikaze clan they went to play with their children to give the Onsen sisters a little help. It was clear to them after the attack that the kids were getting restless being stuck inside a carriage for as long as they had been.

On the way to the the kids carriage Sagura was waiting for them. The nin they captured had tried to kill herself lastnight with a false tooth holding a poison capsule. Fortunately the medic assigned to her was able to save her but it left her in a coma. So with that in mind the women entered the carriage.

Midori was the first to greet them. Midori eldest of the Onsen sisters was not that much younger than Tayuya or Karin. At 23, to their 27 and 26 respectively, she now helped protect Naruto's kids. She was in all honesty a blonde bombshell, and while her chest was not at the size of Tsunade, Midori could make Orochimaru blush.

"Good morning mistresses we just woke up the children I assume you will be cooking this morning as well?"

"yes after yesterday's little problem we thought we would keep the children company again." Karin answered. The carriage was more of like a large apartment the foyer led to a hall that had the dinning room and kitchen to the left and a playroom to the right. And at the end of the hall was a staircase leading to the children's and the Onsen sister's rooms.

When they entered the playroom they already found Rini youngest of the kunoichi trio and Tayuya's youngest son, (4 yrs) Satoshi, playing with Hisoka's only child, (5 yrs) Maika.

Being of such close age the two were nearly inseperable and when together they could get into serious trouble. Maika an adorable mini clone of her mother (only sharing Naruto's tanned complexion, as opposed to Hisoka's alabaster skin). Was the brains and leader of their operations and Satoshi was muscle and executioner of their schemes. It was a hard lesson learned by the adults that if Maika came up to you and asked you for something, Satoshi was probably in the background doing something neferious. With Satoshi looking like his father he could easily charm himself out of most situations, using what his Naruto dubbed the "Namikaze Lady-killers" since so far all males (Minato, Naruto, Matsu and Satoshi) in the fledgling clan were blessed with those Saphire blue gems they called eyes.

His light brown hair with the occasional blonde highlight only helped accentuate his cherubic face. Yes Satoshi like his sister long ago discovered that anything remotely cute they did was magnified by their looks, even moreso if they were together and mimicked eachother. But for the moment they happily enjoyed the building blocks.

"Good morning momma" the duo parroted three times to each of their mothers. Each recieving kisses from their 'mommas' as Karin and Tayuya sat down with the kids. "Well I better start breakfast" Hisoka announced and left, with Rinni quickly tagging along to lend a hand.

Soon Matsu's voice was coming towards the room speaking with his 6 year old sister Tora "No, all of the clan techniques need superior chakra control."

"But dad doesn't have perfect control I can sometimes see his chakra."

"Well cause dad is dad, he's like, the best ninja ever. And he has the biggest reserves of any ninja. But Minato-ojii-sama created the Hiraishen and his control WAS perfect. Isn't that right Sachi-nee?"

Sachi chuckled as she readjusted (3 yrs) Asuka, Karin's only child on her hip to walk down the stairs. After she woke up Matsu, he woke up Tora while she went for Asuka, the next thing she knew the brother and sister were arguing again.

"Well I wasn't born yet, but it is said that your grandfather had amazing control and large reserves, not as large as your father's; but in comparrison to the other Kage's he was powerful. But as a shinobi you must strive to become the best and that means to have large reserves and control. That is why you father left you those exercises."

"Yes, well said Sachi." Karin commented as she stood and held her daughter who was still rather drowsy. And so the four women played with the children until breakfast was served.


Emotions were something that he programmed his soldiers to abandon early in their training. And yet all Danzo felt was anger and hatred, and it all stemmed from the Namikaze heir. He was supposed to be easy to manipulate, he forced the Sandaime's teammates to continue to stop Naruto's bid to become Hokage. Danzo's plan was too use the boy's life long goals as bait to get him under his thumb.

Haruno Ume didn't understand why she wanted, no needed, Sakura to marry Naruto. As far as she was concerned it had to happen, and that was exactly how Danzo wanted it. The fool didn't know she was being manipulated.

He thought that after being denied for so long that when he was "allowed" to start his clan and start training to become Hokage that the blonde buffoon would jump at the chance. Adding the pink haired whore would just be the icing on the cake for Naruto. And then when his wife wanted her mother to live with them; Ume would be in a perfect position to take clan scrolls. And with the Hiraishen and any other techniques, Danzo could fund his coup. And have his unknowing spy assassinate the budding Hokage and his clan, and be the first to die in his new Konoha.

Danzo's flaw though was that he underestimated the blonde ninja. He thought the idiot was an open book to read, yet he forgot the first thing that was taught to him 'look underneath the underneath'. Not having the correct information was just as angering as having the vessel not do as expected; clearly whatever the boy was planning was dependant on what was to be presented to the council today. Luckily, Konoha had only one 'civilian' road so his forces would not have any trouble in locating and destroying whatever the boy had in mind to introduce.
