Prototype Chapter One: Phantom's Birth
Kushina watched as Minato held Naruto in his arm. She had been told what he was to do and then she was told she had three hours to live. "Minato, I can't help but feel sorry for Naruto, since we will both be dead and he will be an orphan."
"Yes, I feel the same, and I know that the village won't understand, but since the Kyuubi won't be here for about an hour, I will address the villagers and ask for him to be treated like a hero." Kushina nodded and Minato handed Naruto back to her and went to the gathered villagers and ninja. "People of Konoha, I have found a technique that can kill the Kyuubi." every one began to cheer, but Minato raised his hand for silence. "The problem is I will die from the jutsus effect. I will seal the Kyuubi's soul in my new born son Naruto. I want him to be treated as a hero, and not the kyuubi reincarnated, because he will be a jailor for that beast."
"Some of you may try to kill him even though I wish for him to be a hero, and I must warn you. The seal is not perfect, and if he is killed the Kyuubi will be released. He will eventually have all of the Kyuubi's chakra with his own, and have mass stores of chakra. That means when he dies he will not release the fox. Now, I have to prepare the seals, so please hold the Kyuubi off while I get ready." he went back to Kushina to find Sarutobi with her.
"Ah, Minato, I have found something interesting. If you change the last seal, ram, to a dragon seal and you can seal yourself into Naruto. He will be able to see and hear you, but only him. Kushina wants to do it with you."
"Kushina, are you sure about this? We could always get Tsunade here to heal you."
"No Minato. I want to be in there with you. Also, Tsunade is not in fire country." Minato sighed and gave up. He helped Kushina up and jumped out the window while summoning Gamabunta. He realized something and made a clone to take them to the Kyuubi. He rushed back to the house, then to the tower were Sarutobi was. "Sasuke Sarutobi, third hokage of Konohagakure, I need you to do me a favor." he unsealed two huge scrolls, two medium scrolls, two boxes with blood seals on them, and some documents. "Give these to Naruto when he becomes a genin."
"Okay Minato, I promise I will. What are they exactly?" the third said as he flipped open the four pictures of the hokage. He did some seals and the safes opened up. He slipped them in and resealed it.
"Two of the scrolls are summoning contracts while the other are scrolls full of clan seals, jutsu, and heirlooms, along with the trick to getting into the mansion. The boxes are our family swords, while the documents are jutsu we were trying to make and his birth certificate, along with the secrets to using the swords, written in seals to hide it."
"That's quite a lot to absorb Minato. Wait, where are you going?" Minato was on the window about to jump out.
"I have to get back on Gamabunta before Kyuubi takes out that Shadow Clone I made." he disappeared and reappeared on the toad boss. Kyuubi's tail squashed Minato and made him disappear. "Kyuubi no Kitsune, I have come to defeat you." he did the hand seals and yelled "Shiki Fuujin Merging Jutsu!" the shinigami appeared and laughed.
"You are the first person to ever summon me and not be put in my stomach. What do you want me to do with your souls?"
"We want the Kyuubi to be sealed inside our son and our souls as well. The only difference will be he will be able to see and hear us, but only he and people he completely trusts can see us." said Kushina as she slowly rocked Naruto. The shinigami took his knife and put the Kyuubi's soul in Naruto's stomach, then did the same to Minato and Kushina except into their eyes.
Kushina, Minato, and Naruto all fell off the head of the giant summons, which flicked his tongue out and caught them. Kushina and Minato passed and Sarutobi came to get the baby. He could see Minato's and Kushina's spirits near him. They waved to him and he smiled while taking Naruto home. He found Asuma there, about to light a cigarette. 'Sarutobi, ask Asuma to raise Naruto. They both have Wind affinities, and he would be taken care of.' Sarutobi nodded a little and sat down next to his son.
"Asuma, I have some bad news. Minato and Kushina summoned the shinigami to seal the kyuubi into little Naruto here."
"Dad, why are you telling me this? I would have found out." said Asuma as he replaced the cigarette.
"They found a way to altar the seal. Their souls are sealed as well. Naruto can see and hear them, and any one he trusts with his life as well. I can see them, and Minato just asked for you to raise him. Something about Wind Affinities." apparently Asuma understood, so he took naruto from his dad and smiled. He rocked him back and forth, and then looked at his dad.
"I will need the scrolls on basic academy jutsu and some Wind jutsu. I'll get some extra from the genin library, the Chuunin library and the Jounin library. I'll need some weapons for training and the usual baby stuff like a crib and food and toys." Sarutobi nodded and made thirty Shadow Clones to get the stuff. Asuma sighed when he saw his dad signaling to hand him something, then he pulled out the pack of cigarettes. "When can I start smoking again?"
"When Naruto is not around and you aren't at home. Now, I want you to get some sleep and tomorrow I will send over a chuunin to baby sit for you while you do missions." Asuma nodded and the clones reappeared. They took the crib to the spare room and Asuma laid him down. The next day, Asuma woke up and waited and hour for a chuunin to come. A woman finally came over with deep red eyes, ninja clothes and a chuunin vest.
"Hello Mr. Asuma, my name is Kurenai. I will take care of the baby later today and when ever you need me." Asuma nodded and left. He had a smile on his face as he met up with Kakashi.
"Hey Asuma, why so happy?'
"The Yondaime's kid is my responsibility now, so my dad sent over a chuunin to baby sit when I go on missions. Her name is Kurenai and she is HOT man!" Kakashi gave him an eye smile and they went to assassinate the man the mission required.

(Twelve Years Later)
Naruto stood in the door way laughing at Asuma and Kurenai. He couldn't stand it any more and yelled "ASUMA, DEVIL EYES, QUIT MAKING OUT!" the two came apart and did it so quickly, they both fell over. Naruto began to laugh and went back to his room to get ready. He went to his closet and pulled out a pair of loose black pants with chains and lots of pockets. He pulled on a gray shirt with the konji for wind on it and went to put on his weapons. Today was the first day of the academy, and he want to look impressive. For the last few years, Asuma had trained him privately, but he wanted to get his hand band and meet some kids his own age.
He strapped his katana on his back, his trench knives-brass knuckles with knives on the end-followed by his nunchucks and his weights with different weapon attachments hidden in them. He strapped his kunai and shuriken holders on and then the black cloak with the hood that his him. He walked down stairs and said. "I'm heading out Asuma. When are you guys coming back from your date tonight?" the question was directed at Kurenai because Asuma was hopeless in that area.
"9:30ish I guess. Any way, have a good day at the academy." he nodded and left. He stood on the tree outside the open window as Iruka addressed the class.
"Okay class, today we will be getting a new student, Naruto Sarutobi. He is the adopted son of Asuma Sarutobi, son of the third. He trained with him for the last eight years discreetly and now has come to take the genin exam and get a team. Has any body seen him?" every one shook their heads, and Naruto appeared next to him, a kunai at his throat.
"Iruka, I suggest you keep your guard up. If I had been an enemy ninja, you and all your students would be dead." he threw the kunai up and caught it, putting it back in place. He threw the cloak revealing him self to the class. Every one had a different thought about him.
'This guy looks strong. I should get him to train Me.' thought Sasuke.
'HE IS SO COOL AND HOT! MAYBE EVEN MORE THEN SASUKE!' thought Ino and Sakura at the same time.
'This guy looks strong, but he reeks of fox and cigarette smoke.' thought Kiba as Naruto came and sat next to Shino.
'ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.' Shikamaru and Choji were both asleep.
'Interesting, he seems to be strong and smart, and my bugs can sense a lot of chakra in him. Wait, is this the same Naruto from a few years ago I met at the training grounds?' thought Shino as he thought of all the times he saw a blond boy training with weapons and chuunin and jounin level jutsu in the forest.
"Hello Shino Aburame. It's been a while since you spied on my training." yeah, it was definantly him. He turned to him.
"Yes it has Naruto. Did you get that Flying Thunder God Barrage Jutsu you were making?" every one gasped, especially Sasuke, because this new kid made his own jutsu. Every one else did it because Naruto had gotten the longest sentence out of Shino in the history of the academy. Iruka cleared is throat and every one turned their attention to him.
"Naruto, would you like to show us the jutsu you know?" he nodded and every one went out side. Naruto made a bunch of Shadow Clones, and each did a different jutsu.
"Earth Style: Earth Spear Missiles." said one, making huge earth spears rocket into the sky. "Flying thunder God Jutsu." said another, disappearing in a yellow flash. "Rasengan." said the next, destroying the next one. Twenty clones got in a circle around the real Naruto and waited. He made a Rasengan in each hand and threw them into the air, followed by eighteen more. "Flying Thunder God Jutsu." the Rasengan disappeared in yellow flashes and hit a clone, then again on another, and then another, and another and another until they were all gone.
"These are only a few of the jutsu, know. I have about one hundred and fifty of each style, ten clones, and about twenty three personal jutsu, with seven more I'm working on. As you can see, eight years of training with five different Jounin helped."
"Five Jounin? I thought Asuma was the only one who taught you." said Iruka once he got over the shock.
"Well, Asuma taught me weapons and my affinity, Kurenai taught me Genjutsu, Kakashi taught me Ninjutsu, Gai taught me Taijutsu and I learned stalking and tracking from Anko. I also have the academy required jutsu and know the tree walking, water walking, shuriken floating, kunai spinning, leaf sticking and chain striking with my chakra. That was taught to me by my god father Jiraiya of the Sannin."
"Hey kid, my name is Sasuke Uchiha and I want you to teach me all the jutsu you know." Naruto looked him over and grunted.
"No, you are too arrogant, and I can tell Itachi has told you to hate to get power. You probably believed him and are being a pompous brat to every one. You are just his little puppet, his lie keeping you from reaching your true potential. You are one of the only people who can defeat him, but are always going to be to weak." he turned around and held the trench knives to the throats of Ino and Sakura who were trying to hit him. Blue chakra blades touched their throats and brought a small amount of blood.
The rest of the day went fast. Naruto graduated that week and was assigned to team ten with Kiba Inuzuka and Ino Yamanaka. His sensei was Asuma. The next day he was called to his adopted grand father's office. "Ah, Naruto, I've been waiting for you. Your real father, the fourth, told me to give these to you when you became a genin." he went over to the hokage picture frames and flipped them pen to reveal four safes. He did some hand seals and they popped open. He pulled out two huge scrolls, two medium sized scrolls, two boxes, and some papers. "These are two summoning scrolls, family techniques, jutsus in mid creation and your birth certificate."
"They also have the trick to using the swords, how to get into the mansion, family heirlooms, and things like that." Naruto closed his eyes and when he opened them again, his real parent's spirits stood next to him. He motioned towards the scrolls and the boxes.
"Oh, so you made genin? The first scroll is a dragon summoning contract, and the second is the Kage summoning contract. It let's you summon former Kages that are dead. First you have to summon the first ever Kage, the Kage of six plains. Just say Summoning: Kage: Six Plains Kage after you write your name in blood on the contract. He must prove you worthy to summon the other Kages when you want."
"Okay, I will." he wiped his blood on both seals and signed the contracts. He did the hand signs and said "Summoning: Kage: Six Plains Kage." a man in armor like the Shodaime and Nidaime wore in six different colors with green eyes, black hair going down to his waist, and a kanji for six on his chest appeared.
"Who dares call me from my plain?"
"I do. My name is Naruto Namikaze, son of the fourth Hokage, the ninth Mizukage, and adopted grand son of the Third Hokage Sasuke Sarutobi, the man at the desk." he pointed at Sarutobi, who had his mouth hung open.
"Why do you think you should be allowed to summon the Kages to help you? What do you plan to do if I let you?"
"I will use it to protect my precious people, my village, and innocent people from jack asses like Orochimaru!" the Kage nodded and crossed his arms.
"You have given a great answer, so I will let you summon us. As for you Sasuke," he said, turning to the third. "You have a few years before you join us. Now, I take my leave." he disappeared and Naruto did the hand signs again. "Summoning: Kages: Fourth Hokage and Ninth Mizukage." his mother and father appeared in their bodies. "Okay guys, what exactly are these swords?"
"Well Naruto, the Namikaze family sword is a fire blade. A long time ago, the Kyuubi was the guardian of the land of fire, and one of my ancestors did him a favor so he used a fang and claw to make that sword." said Minato as he walked over to the box. He tilted it up to show the flame with a claw and fang in it. Kushina went to her box and looked at it.
"The Uzimaki sword is an ice sword. It can summon a beast made from ice and water of your choice. It also works well with the dragon contract because there is a summons that is made of ice and water name Hyorinmaru. (I couldn't think of any other names) It was usually used to impale people when they are not looking, which makes it perfect for assassination missions." she lifted the box to show a dragon made of ice and water roaring with spikes around it. Naruto opened the fire sword first and picked it up in his hand. It had a red hilt with a crimson blade and a chain on the end.
He held the sword in one hand and the chain in the other. He swung the chain around and swung it at the wall, then pulled it back. A claw made of fire rapped around the blade s it spun and when he pulled it back, it hit the wall. He swung the blade and the chain receded, making the blade extend. "Now that is cool." he resealed the sword and took out the Uzimaki blade. It had a ice color blade, a snow flake symbol on the hilt, the Uzimaki symbol on the bottom and a white blade. He brought I straight down from above his head and a dragon shot off out the window.
He spun it in his hand at the bottled water and it quickly froze over. Kushina clapped her hands. "It took me quite some time to get those techniques, and you seem to be a natural with ice and fire." he smiled and resealed the blade. He opened a medium scroll and went to a small seal, unsealing a set of keys quickly. "Oh, those are the mansion keys." she said to him.
"There are a huge amount of jutsu scrolls in the library and even some Sannin and Kage level ones." said Minato as he inspected his fingers. He grabbed the Namikaze sword and Kushina took the Uzimaki blade. Naruto picked the medium scrolls up and was about to go for the contracts when Sarutobi got them.
"Don't worry about it Naruto. You need at least one hand to open the door." so they walked down the streets, people running up to meet the fourth then retreated at the look he gave them. The council and a huge amount of ninja appeared.
"Imposter, you are not the fourth Hokage of this village. He was killed long ago." said Hiashi Hyuuga. Minato sighed and formed two Rasengan in his hand, then the Kage Medallion that he wore in death.
"I am a summons now. Naruto brought Kushina and I back with it and now you should leave before Naruto gets pissed and kills you." all the ninja decided to turn their attention to the small army of Narutos and gulped as they realized they all were swinging four Rasengan each on Chakra chains. The ninja disappeared and the clones disappeared as well. Naruto made the Rasengan disappear and the chains receded into the black and blue bracer he wore on his wrists with the seals slowly disappearing.
"Naruto, Minato, maybe we should get Asuma and Kurenai before we get to the house." Naruto0 nodded and put his hand in his pocket and pulled out a puzzle. When they reached the apartment, Naruto waved to Asuma who was open jawed at the two Kages in his apartment. Naruto put the puzzle up and made one hundred and fifty clones to pack up and take the boxes to the mansion. Asuma followed Naruto across the roof tops to the mansion gate, a huge metal interpretation of the Kyuubi. He took out a bronze key and opened the gate with it. A second gate was unlocked by a silver key, then a gold key, and the door was opened by a blazing red key.
"Why did you put up so many defenses?" he asked as he made more clones to help the ones that had the fifty heavy bags and suit cases full of Kurenai's stuff. We went into the building and marveled at the site. There was a large stair case leading to a second level and a spiral stair case that took him to the library full of Kage and Jounin jutsu.
"Wow Naruto, this place is awesome." said Asuma as Kurenai supervised the clones holding his stuff. He went to find a room for him and found a room twice as large as the master bed room at the apartment. He kept looking and found one with a built in training room and a hidden library. He looked around some more and had his clones bring in his stuff. He unrolled the scrolls and began to unseal all the items. The yellow scroll was full of Minato's heirlooms from the Sealing Country and the blue had all of Kushina's from Whirlpool. He opened the third one down the line of Minato's and a black book popped out. 'Reader, this is the only other copy of the Shadow Beast Jutsu Book in existence from the one in the summoning contract of the shadows, lost in the great wars. Keep it safe.'
"Hey dad, what is this?"
"It's the Book of the Shadow Beast Jutsu. There is a forbidden jutsu that turns the user into shadows that can pass through objects but deal damage. There are many jutsu for that one technique and other jutsu as well. The only one I learned was the Darkness Clone jutsu, which makes a clone that is half the strength of the original. The information is sent to the maker as soon as it is achieved. Also, if the clones eat, they can stay alive." Naruto was in awe of this. He reached for the book but his mom came up beside him and pointed at the thirteenth seal down her scroll. He pushed his chakra into it.
"what the hell?" a box with six eggs, one yellow, one brown, one red, one gray and two blue. He tried to touch one, but Kushina slapped his hand away.
"These eggs are the last of their kind. They are elemental dragon eggs, and a very special one at that. The yellow is lightning, the brown one is earth, the red one is fire, the gray one is wind and the two blue ones are water. They are what make this batch special. They are what are known as a set. A water set makes Whirlpools, a lightning set makes thunder storms, fire makes lava blasts, wind makes tornadoes and earth makes boulders, rock waves, and magma, if you use them with a fire dragon as well. Keep them safe."
Again Naruto was in awe. With all these, he would be undefeatable, not to mention he had about ninety nine seals on each scroll left. Once his clones finished setting up his clothes and weapons, he told them to finish unsealing the items and set them up around the house if they were decorations and make a list of what is for jutsu and such. Kushina stayed to help why Naruto and Minato went to the attic. There was nothing great about It.: just some trunks and some of Minato's spare battle cloaks. Naruto turned to see his dad walking at a door he hadn't seen.
"Hey wait up dad!" he rushed after him, into a room with seals on the walls. "What are these seals dad?'
"They are transportation seals to different places for Namikaze heritage. You know, you should dismiss me for a while. I take more chakra to maintain then your mother since I was a Kage longer." he did as he was told and the spirit of the blond man appeared next to him as he left the room. He found Asuma and Kurenai exploring as well. He told them he had a room for them, so they went their. Naruto began to follow, but a sudden pulse exploded from his body.
"Naruto are you okay?" asked Asuma as he sensed the pulse.
"Y…yeah I think so. Just a little shaken. Ill be right back." he went to his room were the clones had set the weapons out for him. He looked them over and grabbed a huge zanbato wrapped in bandages (not Samehada) and strapped it to his back. He attached his trench knives, four katana, and sealed either sword into the palm of his hand for easy access. Finally, he grabbed his cloak. It was made of black material on the outside but the inside was gray and was covered in seals. He ran at the window and jumped out of it, focusing his chakra.
"Wind Style: Sealed Wings: Flight!' the cape became the ruff shape of wings and Naruto flew through the air above the village. He arrived at the forest to find just what he expected. A man with an Akatsuki cloak and a mask covering everything but his left eye was waiting for him. Naruto growled at him. "What do you want this time…grandpa Obito?" Obito smiled and pulled his mask off, revealing a Sharingan eye in his left eye socket and an eternal Mangekyou in the other.
"I came to see how things were. And you did ask how I became a kid again." Naruto nodded and he continued. "I found out that since I received the Eternal Mangekyou in only one eye, I had to go back and get the normal Sharingan in this eye, but you have to be a kid to do that. My body broke down and I dropped the fake name Madara and went back to Obito. Now I get to ask a question. Have you unlocked your Sharingan yet?"
"No, but remember, my dad didn't either, so I might not get it."
"Your father looked more like his mother who wasn't an Uchiha and her genes stopped the Sharingan ones. You on the other hand look more like me at that age then you realized." Naruto nodded again and sat. They talked about what the Akatsuki were doing mostly for about thirty minutes, until a huge flock of ravens took flight. Obito and Naruto instinctively took a fighting stance since they knew it was Itachi's sister using a spying technique. Obito placed his mask back and they began to fight. Obito ended up throwing Naruto into the air and used Shunshin to get away.
"Bye grandpa Obito. See you next month." he whispered to himself as he took off back towards the village hidden in the leaves.
