Alright! My only reviewer told me this chapter was crap (he said it in nicer words but still...) and I agree it needs a serious rework. I knew it wasn't that good but I wasn't expecting it to be that bad...

"-and then the Hokage brought you here... And that's it. Um... You okay?" It was a legitimate question. They had just told the child of the circumstances surrounding his birth. His status as a Jinchuuriki and his birth parents identities were never a secret but with him soon entering the Academy they felt he had to know what happened that night.

The boy looked up at the three adults sitting around the table with his big blue eyes. He looked shaken but then again who wouldn't be after that tale. His mouth set into a frown as he visibly made an effort to collect himself before asking "How... I mean you said Ma' and Pa' were the only ones there so..."

"I think it's best if your uncle explain it sweetie. It's way other our heads." The boy's adoptive mother intervened.

Said man rubbed his temples in slight frustration, he knew he was there for this reason but it didn't make it any easier. How not to raise the boy's hope to be disappointed? "Well you see Naruto, your parents wanted to be there for you and so your father put some of their chakra and memories of that night inside the seal so they could explain it to you themselves when the the time was right. Your Godfather and I picked up on it and we managed to 'read' the memories without breaking the whole thing apart."

"So that mean I can talk to Ma' and Pa'!?"

Naruto's uncle winced at the boy hopeful tone, just what he wanted to avoid "Actually it's a one time thing. You'll only get one shot of it so..."

Seeing the boy's face crumble his mother said "Then you'll have to make the most out of it right Naruto? So that when you meet them they won't be able to believe how great you turned out!"

Naruto smiled "Yeah! I'll make them proud. Thanks Mom." He turned to his uncle "Say Uncle Kyosuke, my parent they were really brave right?"

Kyosuke froze and Naruto's mother shot him a hesitant glance. "Yeah. What they did was brave indeed..." The two other adult knew were he was likely going and Kyosuke himself was trying his hardest to resist it. The boy was only eight... But that was also part of the problem, the glint of admiration in his eyes was unmistakable. "But it was also pretty stupid." He couldn't let the boy set himself the life goal of dying for whatever sounds cool at that time. Naruto was a bit too focused on awesomeness as it was...

"Wha-"

"Kyosuke!"

"Sorry but if you want to think of your parents as those great guys there's a thousand other reasons to do so. I never met them but if only half of what people say around here is true they're probably some of the nicest people to be ninjas..." Better stay away from this course for now... Letting the boy see for himself would be best.

He had to prevent Naruto from idolizing his parent's death. He could easily see how but it was a bit harsh, and Kyosuke harsly believed in the virtues of being harsh. If he could temper his point of view a bit it'd be alright, maybe... "And if I were to be completely honest I'd say they died for nothing." That was the harsh part... "Now I can guess they weren't thinking clearly at the time, what with the world falling apart around them. But that don't change the fact that there was half a hundred ways they could have handed the situation better without dying in the process." And that was his pitiful atempt at damage control...

And now came his overwhelming need to rant. "Let's take it in order... First there was the moment that masked guy threw you up in the air and your Pa' catched you with his godly teleportation jutsu that even that guy couldn't follow with. He could have dropped the trapped blanket, spam back to your Ma' take her and got back home in less time one could blink."

His audience was frozen. Better end this before the shock wore off. "And then your Pa' take enough time to put you to bed to allow that masked guy to unseal the Kyuubi from your Ma'. If it were me I'd pop in the Hokage's office, drop you into the Third's arm and tell him an enemy was trying to get the fox out and pop back to your mom. Ten seconds top!"

"Now there's the oversight of letting the masked guy go. You just don't let a guy who's that dangerous go. At least not when he's going on a monologue after saying he'll leave the moment his piece was said. Oh, and when he got the fox out of the village, was it too hard to ask that big toad to stick his big sword in the big bad fox's face? Would have helped..."

"And finally the sealing itself. First, your Ma' was an Uzumaki and if she survived until then sealing the fox back into her and getting her to a medic ASAP would have done the trick. Heck! If even if her wounds were too much for a normal medic there's always Tsunade, your Godfather and Pa' would have been all too happy to drag her ass back here if they needed to. If it came to worst anyway then they seal the fox into you anyway but they use the not sacrifice-needing transfert method."

He took a deep breath to calm down. The next part had little to nothing to do with the topic but he had to let it out of his chest. "I still don't get how they managed to do it anyway... The only reason they had the opportunity to do so was the Kyuubi's stupidity. It got its claw stuck through the both of them and they held it back, somehow. Anything with half a brain would just raise its other paw and let gravity and the claw's sharpness do their work..."

His audience was showing signs of dropping out of their haze. Time to make a run for it... "Um... I'll go out for a while."

"Now wait a moment you b-" Naruto's adoptive mother curse was cut short as Kyosuke had already left. Sighing she turned to Naruto. "Are you alright sweetie? You know your uncle. He doesn't really think before talking. I'm sure he didn't really mean it..."

The boy kept silent, as if thinking. It was a strange expression on him, he was always so full of life. After a moment his raise his eyes to those of his mom. "I'm okay... I'll go to my room..." He clearly wasn't. Alas she couldn't see a way to reach him for now.

As soon as Naruto made his way out she pounced on her husband. "You were absolutely useless!"

Deep inside the seal around the child's navel, three entities stirred. If they ever got their hands (or claws) on that Kyosuke person there'll be hell to pay. After they were done beating themselves up...

AN: I hope its better. Or at least less of a mess.

Yeah, the Kyuubi's assault arc left me banging my head against a wall. Like the war arc... If Kabuto can make his Edo appear anywhere he want and the Zetsu knew the location of the medic camp (why all the medics were in the same place is another problem) why in tarnation didn't he make Nagato nuke the whole place...
