The Hokage was a very understanding and gentle person, Hatorri had realized. He was surprised he hadn't called his What's-it-called bad ass ninja to take him to the interrogation team or something. If anything, he was happy he was still alive.

"So, now that we are safe and secure in my office, please tell us anything you know about Konoha." Sarutobi started.

He had brought him and the young Uchiha in here in case someone was spying on them. When you lived in a ninja world, there was no such thing as being too cautious. And the boy seemed too pale to be normal and still needed medical attention. But for now he needed the information this young man had for him.

"Urgh… it's a long story… Hokage-sama, was it? And I don't know that much really… If you find a blond girl with blue eyes, really cute and talkative, that's my cousin mind you, she will tell you everything there is to know including things you would have never wanted to know in the first place about the Ninja world." The boy seemed unnerved by his situation and the Hokage felt sympathy for him. Sasuke was almost the same way. In fact, the Hokage was worried about him, this was the first time he had seen the boy show emotion in such a way after the Uchiha Massacre.

"You can start where you think it's the beginning then. I'm not pushing you or anything. Tell me what you know, I am here to help you and hopefully help my village in the process."

"Well. You said this is Konoha, right? Uhm… and there are these Chunin exams… and then this guy, Oreo…"

"Do you mean …Orochimaru?" The Hokage asked, fearing the answer.

"Yeah! That's the name. Pale white skin, purple make up on the eyes, yellow snake eyes… long black hair… purple gay butt-bow, right?"

"Do continue." Sarutobi had a disturbed mental image of a certain snake bastard with a purple bow.

"Uhm, well, in the manga Team 7 enters the Chunin exams and Orochimaru tricks the Sand into attacking Konoha… I think Oreo…uh… Orochimaru kills the Kazekage, Gaara's dad, and disguises himself as the Kazekage…" Hatorri furrowed his brows and tried hard to remember more. Right now he didn't want to think what was going on. He needed to take this…situation…wherever he was… as easily as possible.

The young man looked at Sasuke next to him. The cursed seal on his shoulder suddenly sent a small shot of pain through him and he grimaced as he rubbed it to subdue it. Hatorri's face lit up.

"Orochimaru wants Sasuke's body! For the Sharingan! That was the Uchiha bloodline, right?" he exclaimed suddenly, making the Hokage nearly jump in his seat.

The old man lit his pipe. Hiruzen was looking at the young man before him. Who was he? Where did he come from? Did he know the future? He said something about manga. And his uncanny resemblance to the last Uchiha…

"OK, that's enough for now… You can tell me about yourself if you want. Where do you come from. Any idea how you came here. Those sort of things." The Hokage was talking seriously, but in a calm, fatherly fashion, slowly and clearly, so that he did not feel threatened.

"Well, uhm. I think this is kind of crazy…you see… where I come from- there is this manga, comic book story, called Naruto."

At the mention of the name both Sasuke and the Hokage's eyes widened.

"Please continue, Hatorri-kun."

"It's very popular. In fact, my cousin is the leader, unofficial though, of the Akatsuki Fan Club- the biggest Fan Club of the manga. All of them are these crazy chicks and dudes, you have to see it to believe it. They all have these weird Cosplays…urgh…anyways, the Manga Naruto is about a boy named Uzumaki Naruto, I think he was in you class, Sasuke? The dobe, right?"

How did he know about the dobe!

"What about Naruto?" the Hokage needed to know. At first he thought the young man mental. But his knowledge was accurate. He was by far no ninja then how did he know about Naruto. He needed to try this boy, to make sure he was no spy.

"He is a Jinchuuriki? And this evil organization, Akatsuki, is after him."

"But you said your cousin was the Leader of the Akatsuki Fan Club."

"She named the club after the villains quote unquote "because they have cool cloaks and are bad ass…" oh and one more "and because the dark side has cookies". But its generally a Naruto Fan Club." He even mimicked her high pitched voice.

"Why is this…manga… named after Uzumaki Naruto?"

"He is the main protagonist. Everybody knows that. And the manga is about Uzumaki Naruto, Hatake Kakashi, Sasuke here, and Haruno Sakura… a pink haired monster that becomes super strong later on under the tutelage of the Fifth Hokage… I think her name was Tsunade?"

"So Tsunade returns to Konoha after my supposed demise…hmm" the Hokage mumbled. He needed to know more.

"And when is this attack going to be?"

"I remember something about Team 7, Kakashi's team, returning from a mission with some drunken old bridge builder or something and then Kakashi says he'll take them to the Chunin exams…oh and Sasuke!"

The boy looked up at Hatorri expectantly.

"You activate the Sharingan during that mission, trying to save Naruto! Oh and you die, trying to save Naruto. But it was a plot bunny or whatever Fia called it and I think you came back to life after that, or something…"

Sasuke was just looking sternly at him. He was going to die? Then come back to life? This guy was nuts. And his eyes said as much.

"I'm not crazy! You were fighting this Haku chick/dude that had this cool icy bloodline and he/she used needles or something."

"Uhm, I'm not making sense, am I?"

The Hokage sighed. It was going to be a looong day. At least there was not going to be any paperwork on his side. Funny how accurate the kid was about Kakashi being teacher to team 7. Or at least those were his plans.

"You DO survive since you kick bad ass during the Chunin exams and I watched that one on the TV."

"You said it was manga."

"They made Anime version since it was such a success."

The Hokage sighed again and took a puff from his pipe.

"You have this crystal ball thingy which you use to spy people with. It's really cool. Oh, and you have a grandson, Konohamaru and a son, Asuma. He is a chain smoker and he and Kurenai will have a baby after a few years…uhm…what else to make you believe me…" the boy was trying hard, (and was also scratching the back of his head, something of a family trait).

And was succeeding. Nobody, and he meant it, nobody knew of his crystal ball.

"Oh yeah, team Asuma will be the Ino-Shika-Cho trio. They're team 10. And team 8 are Kurenai's team- Hyuuga Hinata, she's very shy and she likes Naruto but he doesn't know it…dog buy Kiba, Inu-something, and bug boy- Aburame Shino who has Matrix Style glasses…but I don't think you know what the matrix is…" his voice dropped down once again.

"Oh, and team 9 is from the year before, Team Gai. Maito Gai is really creepy and he has this mini-me a.k.a. Rock Lee. And the other two Genin are Hyuuga Neji, Hinata's cousin, and Ten-ten."

Then Hatorri smiled a bit, in a way which reminded the old man a lot of Naruto's own foxy grin.

"I remember the teams because Neji's Dad and Hinata's dad are also identical twins. And because Fia made me watch the original Anime series" he said proudly. "Wasn't Neji's old man killed because of some Iwa incident? Them kidnapping lil' Hinata?"

"Sasuke" the Hokage said, feeling it was time to dismiss the boy, as Hatorri, he feared, was going to start spewing village secrets." Please go back to the compound. If there is anything you need to know I'll send a ninja for you."

Sasuke took this as his cue to leave. Today he was excused from the academy so he could come with the Hokage. He felt very uneasy and his heart was heavy- what if this man was some long lost Uchiha? The same question bothered the Hokage and soon enough both would know.

"Now that Sasuke is gone, do you wish to tell me anything else?" The old man now asked very gravely, but still politely.

"I come from another dimension where this entire place is a Manga. I didn't want to spew it in front of Sasuke…and uhm… there is this one more thing…I have this cursed seal on my shoulder and it really itches and sends pangs of pain…I think it might've gotten real." The boy cringed.

The Hokage paled. Nothing seemed to make sense to him at the moment. Especially the 'gotten real' part. The hell!

"Back in my dimension there is this thing called Cosplay. It means dressing up as a fictional character and acting like them. And Akatsuki Fan Club, AFC for short, consists of the best Naruto Cosplayers. I'm not part of it but my cousin makes me Cosplay Sasuke. And since he went to this Oreo…Orochimaru I mean… in order to get more power to kill Itachi, his brother, he got this cursed seal thingy? It was a temporary tattoo I got but now it hurts… uhm… there is one more thing."

The Hokage looked at him expectantly.

"The Akatsuki hunt down Jinchuuriki. We really need to find my friends… if they're here… they know everything about this place…and I do mean everything. They even know who the Jinchuuriki are and where they are...their weaknesses, strengths…I really mean everything. And they know all the jutsu of the strongest leaf ninja. We have to find them before the bad guys."

Hatorri seemed really worried about it. The Hokage was stressed by all of this.

"Besides, Fia's dad will cut my balls off if something happened to his only offspring." Hatorri laughed nervously. " And there is one thing that really worries me but I think we have to check if I have an Uchiha gene or not…"

"What do you mean?"

"If I have the cursed seal because Sasuke would have it, that means I have the Uchiha Gene because Sasuke has it. And that makes me Uchiha…sort of, right?"

That actually made sense… but not before making some tests.
Chapter Ten.

Hatorri is probably my favourite character :)
