Hey guys! So, I am finally back with new ideas and new stories. Don't worry, I am going to redo the stories on my profile, but right now my main focus is this story first. Hopefully, y'all like it!

Chapter One

Kushina awoke suddenly, gasping for air and grabbing at her chest where her racing heart laid. Shivering in terror, she cautiously looked about her large bedroom. For some unknown reason, this room horrified her, as if something was there. Maybe it had something to do with the shadows that seemed to reach for her, to pull her into the darkness. Or it could be the wind that was screeching at her, as if it was warning her about something, something important. However, none of that mattered now, she realised. Her fear was only making her imagination run wild. None of it is real.

Reaching her hand out, she spread her fingers out onto the bed, rubbing wear her husband was supposed to lay. However, she was met with nothing but freezing sheets and cold, dark air.

Looking at where her husband was supposed to be, she could not help the sudden feeling of dread that started filling her entire being. Her imagination running wild as it started to come up with several scenarios, making her eyes widen and fill with tears. Her body started vibrating in her fear, and her heart pounded furiously in her chest, Kushina could do nothing but sit there with her hand outstretched, frozen in her mind with demented illusions of what could be happening.

A sudden screech filled the air, echoing off the walls and snapping Kushina out of her demented daydreams and useless fears, where she jumped and screamed. Snapping her head to the window where a black ominous shape hovered in front of it, stalking its prey….Her.

Jumping out of her bed, she ran out the door, down the steps, and into the kitchen where she turned on the lights and scrambled for the knife drawer. That's where all of her kitchen knives laid. Finally opening the drawer, she screamed in frustration. All of her knives were gone. Hurriedly, she searched the rest of the drawers, getting more panicked by the minute. Especially, since there nothing was there to help her.

Breathing heavily, Kushina turned off the light and slowly, cautiously, started to make her way back up the stairs when she ran into a body. Screaming in horror, she turned and ran back into the kitchen where the body followed her. It turned on the light and whispered, "I've got you now." Despairingly, Kushina didn't hear a word it said and when she turned around, she was finally able to see that her predator was her husband.

Her heart that was pounding rapidly in her chest and her panting breaths ceased immediately, at least momentarily, as her brain finally caught up with her eyes. Breathing a sigh of relief, Kushina turned to her husband and did the only thing she could think of, she yelled at him. "Why in the world did you not say anything!? You scared me half to death by that little stunt you pulled! You sho….." The sudden echo of skin hitting skin chilled her to the bones.

Her mind hadn't quite processed the fact that her head was facing in a totally different direction. She finally realized her troubling predicament. Her husband has just slapped her. Never had he ever dared to put her hands on him. Slowly, in her despair filled mind, she turned her head back to face her husband.

She ignored the revolting pain that spread across her face as she looked him in his eyes. She couldn't help but search for the answers she desperately wanted but his manic eyes chilled her to the bones and made a blank numbness spread throughout her being.

Giving his shocked wife a demented smile, he spoke, " You should be scared. After all, I am going to kill you." His smile widened as he finally got the response he was waiting for. Her heartbroken eyes filled with tears and slowly, she backed away and ran off in the opposite direction.

Minato followed her at a more sedated pace, waiting to hear her heartbroken screams echo throughout the house as she finds her little present. After all, this was her son's fault.

-LINEBREAK

Okay, so chapter one is finished and I hope you guys liked it. I will update the second chapter next Sunday, at the latest but I may update it early. I'm not for sure. Anyways, I don't think I will have a whole lot of chapters for this story, I only expect around 3 or 4 more. It's really not that long of a story at all.
