Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, yadadadada, done. Don't expect this again.
Four score and seven years ago…..whoops, wrong script. Ahem! Now….
Twelve years ago, a nine tailed fox appeared suddenly and without warning in the middle of the night, for some reason enraged beyond reason and with apparently the sole purpose of destroying the village that was Konohagakure. It's tailed lashed and it's teeth gnashed, killing ninja in droves and seemingly all was lost, there was panic throughout the streets and blood was splattered almost everywhere you looked. It was if the apocalypse had arrived.
But then they arrived.
Suddenly fighting the great beast was an amphibian creature known as Gamabunta, his legs tensing as he hopped out of the way of the way of a claw slash before slashing forward with his giant katana in an attempt to slice off the bijuu's arm. Upon his head however, was where the true attack was. An attack in the form of a sealing.
Minato Namikaze and Hiruzen Sarutobi, the 4th and 3rd Hokage, were conversing quickly about what was to be done. In Minato's arms were two adorable little baby girls sleeping silently despite all of the chaos erupting around them and in Sarutobi's one boy watched with wide eyes, strangely not letting out a single peep throughout the entire ordeal.
"Hiruzen, please don't do this. There has to be some other way that we can stop it!"
Another crash and Gamabunta once again did his job of dodging out of the way of the violent creature.
"Hurry it on up there! If you haven't noticed, he's getting closer to the village again!"
With a great sigh, Hiruzen would close his eyes briefly before a brave determination gripped his heart, his eyes shining with the Will of Fire. "Minato, you know that there is no more time left. The village is my family, I am not afraid to die for it."
Weaving through a set of hand seals a ghostly apparition of the Shinigami would appear behind him, the purple skinned god of death staring impassively at the beast who seemingly it was about to seal. What surprised it though, was that from the way the old man in front of it was arranging this was to be that it could split the soul about three times. As if he had read the god's mind, Hiruzen would explain.
"What I am about to do to these children is something that is beyond forgiveness. I could willingly ask someone to bear this burden, but if they have to they need someone who understands their pain. They will turn to each other, and hopefully then I won't seem that bad of a guy when they hear about how old man Sarutobi sealed the Kyuubi." He would give a weak smile before turning to the Kyuubi. "This is the end! Reaper Death Seal!"
And as if it were magic, a great hand would extend through the stomach of Hiruzen and all the way to the Kyuubi, which would let out a roar of absolute anguish as it was dragged away and sealed into three newborn children, despite all of its best efforts. And with that, the Third Lord Hokage sunk to his knees and died with a smile on his face, holding Naruto Namikaze close in his death as though to shield him from harm. As the sun's first rays of sunlight rose from above the mountains and struck Hiruzen's face Minato would restrain his tears and clumsily make a pair of shadow clones to hold the children, he himself closing his mentor's eyes before picking him up onto his shoulder. Lowering his head so that they could land without jostling the newborn's Gamabunta would give Minato a solemn look before disappearing in a poof of smoke like all summons do. Many of his Flying Thunder God kunais had been destroyed in the attack, especially in the places that he needed to check also known as the main areas that had been attacked. Passing through briefly he would realize the extent of the damage, leaving one clone behind to deal with the farthest areas before moving inwards with the other clone.
What he could never have expected however, was the effect of the demon fox's chakra. It had been released in very high concentrations, which while it wouldn't normally do much to a normal human with a developed chakra system, could do irreparable damage to a newborn. Sensing the rift within the baby poor Naruto would suddenly be screaming out loud as chakra flooded his system, tearing his undeveloped coils to shreds before reforming them with potent demon chakra. Meanwhile, in his DNA the chakra got to work, forcibly knocking out all useless DNA that had accumulated over the years causing his as yet to be awaken regeneration powers to be greatly heightened. But in the end, this was nothing compared to what now awakened inside of him. A bloodline said to be extinct since ancient times.
As the baby screamed and the clone teleported away in worry, black eyes would stare out of their sockets pitifully. The Kage no Me had awakened.
