Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.
"W-Where am I?" Kushina asked out loud as she awoke. Suddenly everything that happened flashed across her mind; Naruto and Katsumi being born, the masked man releasing the Kyūbi and then Minato taking their children before everything went black. She began struggling to get out of the bed she was in only to find that her body wouldn't move from below her neck.
"Calm down," a voice said softly from across the room. She looked to see her husband holding the sleeping forms of Naruto and Katsumi in his arms. "To answer your question you're in the hospital."
"M-Minato what happened, the last thing I remember is you taking them."
"You've been unconscious for two days," he explained. "After I took Naruto and Katsumi I planned to use the Shiki Fūjin to seal Kyūbi into them but Sandaime-sama stopped me. Instead he took the children and used the seal himself. In his dying moments he told me Shinigami-sama sealed Kyūbi's soul into Naruto and its chakra into Katsumi."
"Why didn't seal half of Kyūbi's soul and chakra into each of them?" the red head questioned.
"I don't know; he probably sealed its soul into Naruto because he thought we could kill Kyūbi by killing him," the Hokage said. "Before I went through with it I wanted to tell you."
"You'd sacrifice your own son's life?" Kushina asked in shock.
"But it's for the good of the village and if we don't kill him Kyūbi will take over him," Minato tried to reason.
"What about me? I had Kyūbi sealed inside me but it didn't take over my body," she said.
"But you have special chakra and the same went for Mito but Naruto doesn't, and he probably never will. Not to mention Mito was an expert in seals."
"But…" Kushina tried to argue but she found she couldn't. She knew he was right; Mito was an expert in fuinjutsu which is how she had managed to seal the Kyūbi into herself and then into her (Kushina). However Hiruzen wasn't an expert and chances were he messed up the seal so the Kyūbi could influence her baby's mind. But what if Minato was wrong and Naruto would be Naruto not the Kyūbi in a human body, she had to do something to convince him not to kill their oldest, by a minute, child. "Minato you can't kill Naruto."
"If I don't then Kyūbi will take over his body and destroy Konoha."
"But if you do kill him the Kyūbi's soul will reform in seven years and if that happens the chakra from Katsumi's seal would be forcibly ripped out and Katsumi would die and the Kyūbi would be reformed," Kushina said, she knew it was a lie but she had to do something to save her son, if it was her son.
"Are you sure?" Minato asked.
"Yes, if you kill Naruto now Katsumi would die on her seventh birthday."
"Alright," Minato said while walking over to her. "I'm sorry but I had to place a restraining seal on you. I knew you'd be frantic when you first woke up and I didn't want you to injure yourself."
"It's fine," Kushina said as her husband released the restraining seal. She sat up slowly and then Minato placed their children on her lap while he sat on the bed. She lovingly looked at her children; Naruto looked like a baby version of his father while Katsumi looked like her mother, both twins had blue eyes and whisker-like markings on their cheeks, no doubt from Kushina being the previous jinchūriki of the fox.
'Is he really my son?' Kushina thought as she watched Naruto wave his little arms around. 'Or is he the demon?'
"I'll go tell the villagers the news," Minato said as he stood up and walked towards the door.
END
A/N: I'm taking a small break (1 – 2 weeks) from my other story cause I've gotten a bit bored of concentrating on just one story so I've got this one; it's based on one of my challenges but has some differences. I haven't decided if Naruto will get a harem or not so tell me in a review if you want him to have one or not along with the girl/s you'd like to see him with.
Also sorry this chapter was so short but I just wanted to get it out of the way.
I've also put a new poll on my profile; Which Kekkai Genkai/Dōjutsu should Naruto obtain?
