Chapter 1

I went around the corner of the village, trying to figure out what had happened. The last thing I remember is sealing the nine tailed fox demon in my son! My son! Where is he? I wonder if he's alright. "Calm down, calm down…" I muttered to myself.

"OK First of all where am I and How on Earth did I get here? I'm supposed to be dead after using the sealing technique, but why am I not dead? I guess I'm not dead, Just accept it Minato, be glad you're still alive." Minato rubbed his hair, an old habit of his when he was thinking. "I can sense a village here," as he walked past the trees he gasped, "This is Kohona Village, it doesn't even show any signs of the Demon fox attacking, this is really weird," Minato sighed, very annoyed " I better stop talking to my self and find out what's going on." Minato used the transforming jutsu to turn into a villager with black hair and green eyes and entered.

In the following time…

An eleven year old Naruto was lying on the fourth Hokage's statue head, The Yondaime was always a hero for Naruto, he was the one who destroyed the Nine tailed fox and saved the village by sacrificing his life. And he Naruto is going to surpass all the Hokage's and become one so he can protect the village like the 4th did!

Naruto was here in the first place because he had bunked off some lessons in the academy, he had always found it so boring, Naruto thinking that he was safe from Iruka-Sensei, yawned lazily and was about to go to sleep when something blocked the sun from his face. He opened his eyes and came face to face with an angry red Iruka. "NARUTO GET BACK TO CLASS NOW!!!!"

"No need to shout Iruka-Sensei, I can hear you, I'm not deaf!" Naruto forced a chuckle nervously.

And after that Naruto found himself taking the test so he could graduate from the academy.

The last exam was the jutsus, and this was one of Naruto's worst jutsu ever and when his name was called Naruto came and did the hand seals and shouted, "Clone Jutsu," there was a big puff of smoke and two identical Naruto's appeared and the third one looked dead.

"Naruto, YOU have failed," said a stern looking Iruka.

After that many things happened, and Naruto sat on his bed and thought about what happened.

Iruka's assistant Mizuki had tricked Naruto into stealing the Forbidden Jutsu scroll and had told him that if he learnt one of the jutsus from the scroll Iruka would let him graduate. It was then that he had learned a terrible secret, and why people had stayed away from him when he was little. He was the container of the Demon Nine Tails. Naruto was very upset and had run into the forest after Mizuki blurted it out to him. After that Iruka had found him and comforted him and said that Naruto had saved the village by taking the Nine Tails. And Iruka had told him how much he thought that Naruto was a hero for being brave. By that time Mizuki had stuck a shuriken in Iruka-Sensei. Then Naruto did the jutsu he had practiced from the scroll and a hundred shadow clones appeared and he ad beaten the hell out of Mizuki.

Then Iruka had come to him and given him his headband and told Naruto that he had graduated. Then only Naruto had started to cry and Iruka held him and comforted him until he had fallen asleep. Then he had found himself on his bed .wrapped up with the blanket.

Minato had found out a lot during the past two days. He had found out that his son Naruto lived in an apartment alone; he was going to have a word with old man Sarutobi about this later. The worst thing that he had found out was about him being dead for 10 years. He had also found out that Madara had formed an organization called Atasuki. Another shocking thing was that Itachi Uchica had eliminated the whole of his clan except his brother and had joined Atasuki.

Another thing was that it was Naruto's Birthday in another 3 days and the day he was going to be put in a team with a Sensei.

Minato had crept into Naruto's bedroom and had watched him fall asleep. Minato stroked Naruto's hair as Naruto whimpered from a bad dream.

Minato had this strong urge to hug Naruto, but then Naruto turned around and woke up quickly, and Minato saw Naruto shrink down in fear "Don't hurt me, please don't hurt me…"

Minato put his arms in front of Naruto and said, "I'm not going to hurt you" he said gently.

After a while Naruto seemed to trust Minato a bit and stopped shrinking down.

Then he asked, "What are you doing in my apartment"

Then Minato sad, "Don't worry, I only came to this village and I need a place to stay somewhere and I feel a little uncomfortable staying in the inn, you don't mind if I stay with you? Do you?"

"That's okay you can stay here as long as you like mister. Oh yeah I forgot, what's your name mister"

"You can call me Minato, and you wouldn't mind if you kept this meeting of ours a secret" Minato replied.

"You can count on me, your secret's nice and safe" Naruto said giving Minato a foxy grin of his.
