The date, October, 11.

"Happy birthday Menma, Nö!" The crowd cheered happily with their glasses raised in the air and followed by the 'clink' noise of the glasses being tapped together. "Now, everybody. I've got an announcement. " Minato said with a grin from ear to ear. Everyone then began to murmur, the noise went from the loud cheering to complete silence. "Menma and Nö are turning ten this year and I believe I should announce that Menma will be the Namikaze clan heir and Nö will be the Uzumaki clan heir!" Minato finished and looked the crowd who began to clap and cheer.

"Ha! I have a way better clan than you Nö-baka!" Menma said to his sister who whipped her head around to him. A spark could almost be seen.

"No way! Stupid!" Nö yelled back and head butted her brother. Menma then did the same and they glared at one another. Everybody chuckled in amusement at the two children's action.

"Calm down kids." Kushina came behind them and gripped the two in a extremely tight hug and began to whisper to the two. "Now be good birthday children and go play with your friends." They gulped fearfully knowing what would happen if they disobeyed.

"Let's go play ninja!" Menma began to head to the door with his sister along with a line of other kid's behind him. Nö then suddenly stopped and looked behind her and began to fume.

"That means you to Shika-baka!" She ran over two him and began to drag him to the door with he stumbled to keep up.

"Troublesome. .." Shikamaru grumbled as he was drug, stumbling behind Nö as they headed to the back yard to play. Once outside Shikamaru played with the others. Sighing loudly Shikamaru looked upwards at the Hokages house and spotted something; a light on the second floor and a shadow.

Naruto, the other twin watched from his window as his brother and sister played with one another and with the other kids. Looking at them one by one he noticed someone looking at his window and quickly moved out of front of his window and went to his bed.

It had been this way for years; Minato, Kushina, Menma and Nö would by image be the perfect family. Loving and caring for one another. But then when out of view of the public they were monster's, at least to Naruto. Unlike Menma and Nö he didn't have a portion of the Kyuubi No Yoko's chakra sealed into him. The family would ignore him and when they didn't Naruto was treated horribly. Depriving him of food, sleep, clothing, love, any sort of affection. Naruto thought about these things and began to think about the only people who did treat him nicely; the Sarutobi Clan. Quickly he put one his white shirt and adjusted his black pants and headed to see the Sarutobi's.

It was dark, everything was quiet. He was use to this so he just made his way to the compound. Then catching his attention were footsteps that got closer and closer. A sudden shadow moved right at him and grabbed him before he even got a chance to scream or yell and everything went black.

"W-what. ...happened?" Naruto grabbed his head in pain and looked around, his vision blurry. As they cleared up Naruto set his eyes upon two objects which he identified as swords, his vision cleared up and they appeared to be curved and the moonlighting reflected off the pair of swords. Curiosity piqued him and approached them. They looked; no, Naruto knew they were expensive by the steel that seemed to have been made perfectly. 'Why would anybody leave these here? How did I get here?' Naruto wondered and grabbed one of the swords. He blinked...blinked twice...and then a third time... voices filled his head, image's of a woman flashed in his mind, a name fled his mouth...Unohana... Retsu...
