Ummmm. No.
Get the facts right and rework the idea mate.
You're right, I meant his cousin, and I forgot the details of the seal. Oops. My bad. Thanks so much for helping me refine my... no, wait, you didn't actually point anything useful out to me, you just made a wiseass comment. Never mind.
To Charon and Nuclear Death Frog,
actual thanks. There are several ways to justify the sucessful slaughter, from "they were asleep" to "Neji is a genius" to "Whatever the hell the next Byakugan does." I hadn't really thought to hard about it, though I suppose I should. And yes, I meant cousin--my bad.
As for Hanabi's death? I hate Hanabi. Really, she could just as well be alive, though that would probably have major repurcussions in the fic.
And TheEcchiSessha, yes, it is just a "replace name here" fiction, but not one I've seen anywhere else.
