56 year old Danzo watched as his rival- and once, friend- hand over the Yondaime's child over to the caretaker of the Orphanage. Even Danzo, blind in one eye, could see the obvious hatred the caretaker held for the Jinchuuriki. Why Hiruzen was trusting this old lady was beyond him. If Danzo couldn't have the Yondaime's legacy, than he would have at least handed him over to Nono who could protect him and train him, instead of a old woman who would obviously mistreat the boy.
It was later that night, when Danzo was lurking in his Root headquarters, that he came up with a plan. It would take some of his cunning...no, all of his cunning and his subordinates could not, under ANY circumstances, fail. Quickly sending out the required message, Danzo signaled for an entire squad of his best Root ANBU to guard the Jinchuuriki. If things went as planned, it would be a bloodbath. If things didn't go as planned...then Konoha would go up in flames.

Root agent #507 used a small katon jutsu to burn the message he had received from Danzo-Sama. Quickly adopting his false persona again, he went back to his 'job' as the Tsuchikage's secretary. Root agent #507, or as he was called, 'Izaya', wrote down a false message detailing the location of the Yondaime Hokage's child, then raced into the Tsuchikage's room. "Tsuchikage-Sama! An urgent message from our spy in Konoha!"
Onoki jumped out of his chair. "What did you say?!" Onoki roughly grabbed the message from 'Izaya', and a large grin broke out on his face. "This is perfect! Izaya, go get an ANBU! Tell him I have the perfect assassination mission for him!"

The Iwa ANBU remained silent as he readied his kunai. It had been two months since he received the mission to kill the Yondaime's son, and only now was he ready to do it. He had waited for the perfect time, when there were a minimum amount of ANBU guarding the child. He silently sneaked into the Orphanage, stood over the old rotting cradle of the child before bringing down his kunai quickly. His kunai stabbed into the child's left eye as a Kunai was thrown through the back of the Iwa ANBU's head, and he fell over dead.
The baby Naruto was crying as a Root member quickly picked him up, while another Root member began lighting the Orphanage on fire. Nodding to each other, the Root members disappeared to report to Danzo and heal Naruto.

A few weeks passed since the abduction of Namikaze Naruto, and everyone thought he had perished in the fire caused by the Iwa Anbu, who was luckily taken out by a Konoha ANBU before he fled the village. Danzo let his smile go unnoticed throughout the council session speaking of the Jinchuriki's death, and quickly left to return to Root headquarters. He had a boy to raise, after all.
