Author's note: I don't own Naruto and if I did, Sasuke and Naruto would do nothing but go at it like bunnies….okay a special note – I know that Itachi is really only like 4 years older than Sasuke but for the purposes of my own creation I basically have to make him old enough to almost be Sasuke's dad (16 year difference instead) Also Kin means "golden in Japanese" I thought it was cool. Also I apologize for any special four letter words…
Prologue:
There was lots of screaming. Blonde hair clung to sweaty and tan flesh, pain all too evident in the crystal blue eyes. The poor woman tried to sit up a younger girl standing next to her doing everything that she could to sooth the woman who was in pain as another scream escaped her lips. The young girl was also blonde with blue eyes and a sun kissed complexion. She couldn't have been much older than sixteen but she was talking the poor woman in front of her through the ordeal
"AHH! I can't! I can't!" screamed the woman.
"Yes, yes, you can. Kushina, remember your promise!" yelled the girl.
"He – ahh – he doesn't want to be born. He knows. He knows what's waiting for him."
"It doesn't matter. I'll be here, just like I promised. I'll watch out for him, I'll protect him and I will love him but so will you. Remember you promised! Just keep breathing, Okasan. Come on now, just a couple more pushes." The woman screamed again and the young girl winced.
"How much longer Kin?" asked a man in the corner, with his own blonde hair and blue eyes. The immediate reaction was two matching death glares from the girls.
"DAD! You are not helping so shut the fuck up!" yelled Kin. The three of them were in a poorly lit chamber, barely illuminated by a ring of candles around them. Kushina was near the end of a very long and painful delivery of a baby boy and was lying on a table in the center of the circle.
"Please stop yelling!" screamed Kushina.
"Sorry," said Kin, still glaring at her father but her voice still softened, "So have you picked a name yet?"
"Yeah – Nahhhruto. He is going to be named Naruto."
"Perfect. I love it. I can see him now. Another load-mouth Uzumaki running around Konoha annoying the crap out of everyone. He's going to drive everyone nuts, just like his mom."
"And his sister."
"Naruto is perfect." Kushina screamed again, her face contorting in pain.
"KAMI!"
"It's okay, it's okay. Deep breaths."
"AHH!"
"He's coming!" screamed Kin. Her father, who had been nothing more than a useless spectator until that point entered the circle of candles and placed a hand on Kin's shoulder.
"Minato?" panted Kushina.
"Come on, Koi, just push." Kushina sobbed as Minato grabbed her and helped her push the head of their baby out of her. Screaming filled their chamber as Kin helped to pull the infant boy out of Kushina. After what seemed like forever a second scream echoed hers as the boy took his first breath covered in various fluids. Kin reached for a knife to cut the umbilical cord but her father grabbed her hand.
"Dono?" she asked, close to tears, "Please don't do this."
"There is no other way."
"Please," Kin begged.
"Hand him over." Kin didn't move so he reached over and took the child from her arms. In tears she rushed to Kushina's side and screamed.
"She's dead! Dono! She's -!" Kin stopped when she saw that he father was performing hand-signs and none that would save Kushina. She knew what he was doing and as much as she wanted to she could not stop it just as she could not save the now dead woman on the table in front of her. Then the flames around them erupted growing tremendously in strength until it completely filled the chamber.
