Chatper 1 Naruto path of the Uchiha
-_-_-Oct 9th-_-_-
Deep in the hidden leaf village at the main hospital, A young man named Tatsunari Uchiha was trying to comfort his wife, Edur Uchiha as she was giving birth to their son.
"Just a little more, Edur.. I can see the head.. Your almost there, my love"
"OH MY GOD! GET OUT OF ME YOU LITTLE BASTARD!" Edur shouted squeezing her husbands hand till cracking sounds were heard and he winced in pain. "WHEN THIS IS DONE, I'M GOING TO KILL YOU, TATSUNARI!"
Tatsunari was holding his wife's hand as she crushed it and finally a few minutes later , their baby was born.
The doctor on call, looked at the coupe as he lifted the baby up, cut it's umbilical cord, cleaned him off and place him in a blanket. "Congratulations, you have a healthy baby boy"
Tatsunari looked his son with it's raven black hair with a smile as his wife finally released his hand. The baby opened his eyes for the first time, revealing that they onyx black like most members of the Uchiha clan.
"What shall we name him?" Tatsunari asked, looking at his wife as the doctor handed her the baby.
"How about Naruto…the name of the main character from that book "The Tale of the Gutsy Hero" that Jiraiya wrote?" Edur suggested despite being exhausted. "The only book he's wrote that's not perverted"
Tatsunari looked his son with smile. "Naruto Uchiha it is then"
A short time later, Fugaku Uchiha came into the room came in the room to see the baby of her best friend.
Fugaku had a smile on her face as she greeted Edur while holding her own baby, her son Sasuke, who had been born only a few months prior.
The laughed as they talked about the future and the room seemed filed with happiness. It was shame that the happiness wouldn't be felt forever..
The next day, Oct 10th….
Minato Namikaze was standing by using his chakra to keep a seal in tact ashis and his wife Kushina gave birth to their child.
"Minato sweetie?.." Kushina said as she strained to push out her baby. " I'm going to rip off your balls after this is over!… I'm never going through this again!"
A moment later after one last push, it wa over and their child was born.
"Congratulations Kushina…." Biwako Sarutobi, the third Hokage's wife stated, cleaning the baby, up and preparing to hand the baby to Kushina.
"Its a girl, Kushina.." Biwako said, with a small smile.
The baby had the trademark bright red hair of the Uzumaki clan, that Kushina had come from with a few curious streaks of blond running through her hair as well.
"Can I see her?" Minato asked, as Biwako walked near him.
"Of course not… you'll wait till after Kushina sees her" Biwako stated, firmly, walking past him. "and stand up straight. Your slouching, Minato"
But just as Biwako was about to hand Kushina her baby, a strange man wearing a spiral patterned mask, appeared, grabbing the baby, and disappearing to the other side of the room.
"I've come for the nine tails, sealed away in your wife, fourth Hokage" The mans said, holding the crying baby in his hands. "Make a choice … which is more important?.. Your infant daughter's life? Or the village that I will destroy with the nine tail's power?"
"Stay clam.. And don't hurt my daughter" Minato said, coming to his senses.
"I am perfectly clam, fourth Hokage" the man said, in a menacing voice.
Biwako dashed over and grabbed the baby from the man, elbowing him in his stomach before jumping over to Minato.
"So much for a bargaining chip" Biwako stated narrowing her eyes.
"Not bad for an old hag… but I already what I want anyways" The masked man said as his spinning Sharingan eyes looked at Kushina and extracted the nine tails for within her, releasing it's energy outside of the secret location where Kushina gave birth at. "Well.. That's all I really wanted anyways… farewell. I'm too to get a front row seat for this village's massacre"
"What are you waiting for, Minato?" Biwako said angrily. "Stop him!"
Minato nodded and flashed over to the man using who vanished using a strange visual jutsu that created a swirling effect.
"Damn it!" Minato said, grabbing his wife and daughter before using his flying Raijin again and appeared at his house with them both. He placed Kushina and Sen on their bed next to each other, kissing them both.
"Don't worry.. I won't let the two most important women in my life down" Minato said, stroking his crying daughter's hair. "Kushina.. No mater what happens.. I love both so much"
Before the weakened Kushina could do anything, Minato grabbed his white cloak, emblazoned with kanji meaning "Fourth Hokage" on it and disappeared a from sight.
Minato teleported away, and after grabbing his Hokage jacket, appeared in the grassy field just outside the village. Standing there waiting for him, was the masked man, who stood very confident .
"So you're here" Minato said looking at the masked man as he pulled out a three prong kunai.
"But of course.." The man replied in a deep yet calm and relaxed voice. "I went to all the trouble of getting your attention, so why would I leave now?.. Especially when I want a front row seat for the Nine Tails destroying the village"
"Who are you?.. And why are you trying to destroy the leaf village?" Minato demanded.
"My reasons are my own, forth Hokage" Tee man said as he dropped a long metal chain out of one his long sleeves and held it. "Just know this… your death will serve a higher purpose in the grand scheme of things.. So at least there's that"
"I won't let you destroy the Hidden Leaf!"
Minato raced at the man with a rasangan in hand, but seemingly in slow motion, the man moved his face out of the path of the attack, and disappeared in a swirling distortion, only to reappear a few feet away.
The masked man seemed to mock Minato. "So slow.. And unobservant"
Minato glanced down and saw several paper bombs at his feet, and quickly used his flying Raijin jutsu to get away from the coming explosion.
"There it is again.. That teleportation jutsu of yours. It's as fast as my own" The mask man commented. "How intriguing.. And I'm sure you'll enjoy this as well.."
The masked man quickly did hand sign before using a powerful jutsu. "Fire Style, Great Fire Annihilation!"
Minato looked on as a enormous wave of fire shot out at him and quickly weaved through dozens of hand signs in a blink of an eye. "Already breaking out the big guns?.. Guess I'll meet your bet… Water style, double water dragon Jutsu!"
Two giant dragons of water hit the wave of fire and canceled each other out in huge blast of steam, though Minato was ready for the masked man as he appeared by Minato moments later, brandishing a kunai.
"Now's who too slow?" Minato asked, revealing himself to be a shadow clone by dissipating into a cloud of smoke. "Rasangan!"
The masked man barely managed to escape it, though his as was burned on one side most of his hood was gone as well after he reappeared.
"That eye.. A Sharingan?" Minato commented as he landed as saw the masked man. "Are you.. Madara Uchiha?"
"Does that really mater at this point, dead man?" The masked man said, apparent by him again.
He threw a round house kick only to hit air as Minato flipped over him and punched him. But the masked man moved his head out of the path of the fist and jumped back, throw a volley of Kunai. Minato knocked ever single one of them out of the air as he dashed back at him and threw two three prong kunai in return… one straight past the masked man and the other above him.
As he predicted, The masked man dodged the kunai flying at him, by making his head become intangible with his Kamui power. Minato appeared behind the masked man with flash of lightning, only to disappear again as the masked man attempted to stab him in his head. Minato appeared above him I another flash of lightning and shot down.
" Flying Raijin Level two, Giant Rasangan!"
The masked man, as fast as he was, could get away from the attack, smashing him into the ground hard enough to create a large crater.
"Huf.. Huf… how was that, Madara?" Minato said, breathing hard with a smile as he reappeared some distance away on the field. "What the?"
The masked man staggered to his feet, with a good portion of his cloak destroyed. "Damn you.. You really do live up to your name as the fastest ninja alive… I never thought you'd be so strong in battle.. But this is far from over"
"Guess again" Minato said, glancing at a previously unseen seal on the front of the masked man's cloak. "The nine tails is not longer your puppet"
"What are you talking abo.. A contract seal?" The masked mans asked in surprise. "You tricky bastard.. I didn't even notice"
"I told you I wouldn't let you destroy the village" Minato replied holding another Kunai. "It's over"
"For now perhaps... I'll concede to you this victory.. But this is hardly the end of things" The masked man said, with an angry edge to his voice. "Not only do you have the nine tails to still deal with… but me as well.. Farewell for now, fourth Hokage.. No matter how long it takes, nothing will stop my plans for this world.. Bye bye, Minato"
"Damn it.. He disappeared again.. But if I chase him the nine tails will destroy the village" Minato said, frustratedly. "I just hope I can deal with the nine tails…and that the village will be ready when he returns some day"
Minato had beaten the masked man but now he had to deal with the threat of nine tails. "I am sorry Kushina… but Sen is going to deal with the burden of being the new host for the nine tails"
"This is the only way to stop such a powerful being" Minato said, after he picked up his daughter from the sleeping Kushina. " Please forgive, Kushina.. Sen"
Minato reappeared in a large field near the nine tails that had manifested under the masked man's control. "Ok.. Here we go"
"Not so fast fourth Hokage" The masked man stated, reappearing not far from him. "I don't know what you intend to do.. But I won't let you interfere"
"It is you who will not be allowed to interfere, masked man" Hiruzen Sarutobi, the third Hokage said appeared In front of Minato along side a number of Anbu. "We will hold this man off for you…. But hurry none the less.. The nine tails must be stopped, and your probably the only person capable of stopping it"
"Lord third!" Minato exclaimed. "What are you doing?"
"Whatever it is you plan on doing to stop the nine tails, I suggest you do it while you can Minato" Sarutobi stated, facing the masked man. "Protect the fourth Hokage at all costs, Anbu!"
"Nine tails!.. Over hear!" Minato shouted, tossing several explosive tags at the beast to get it's attention on him and waiting for it to get as close to him as possible.. "Perfect… Sealing Jutsu, Reaper Death Seal!"
The nine tails roared as it was separated into a yin and yang half by the power of a reaper that manifested behind Minato. The yin half was dragged into the seal Minato had placed on the stomach of his infant daughter sealing the yin half in her, while the yang half was sealed into Minato as he gave the command and the reaper behind him devoured his soul. "Good bye… Kushina"
5 years later…..
Edur stood in the kitchen and turned towards the doorway. " Naruto, its time to wake up!"
Naruto groaned as he rolled out of bed yawning. After moment, the still tired Naruto stood up and got dressed, in put on his black Anbu style pants with a white shirt. His rubbed his hands through his messy hair and some of it covered one of his eyes when he was done and walked out if his room to go eat breakfast.
Naruto saw his father already sitting there, eating some eggs, while his mother was eating rice happily.
Naruto sat down and began eating as well when his mom spoke up. "Naruto? how about we start ninja training?"
Naruto grinned and started to jump up, before his father stopped him. "Ehem…. After we eat, Naruto"
A short time later, Naruto was in training area outside of his house with his father and mother.
"Naruto.. this is charka paper.. It allows a ninja to se which of the elements they are more attuned to" Tatsunari said, handing his son apiece of the chakra paper. " All you have to do is channel some of your charka into the paper"
Naruto nodded and waited till his parents stood back before did as instructed. The Chakra paper burst into flames with some lightning sparks dancing across it…the flames were mostly blue though there was some red color flames scared in it as well in as well.
Edur's jaw went slacked at this sight of the results of the chakra affinity test. "He has a powerful fire charka affinity.. And lightning as well"
Tatsunari coughed to get his wife and son's attention. "Alright.. You have aa strong affinity for both fire and lightning chakra.. But before we do anything else.. You'll need to work on your charka control"
"Your mother will be teaching you to wield a sword as well as the basics of sealing jutsu, while I will teach you ninjutsu and genjutsu and taijutsu"
Naruto nodded and looked at his mother who continued where his father left of. "When you learn to activate your Sharingan, you will learn how to use on instinct , but don't over rely on it…"
"You will use it to learn faster, but only copy moves of an enemy, never an ally without permission.. Understand?" Tatsunari said, folding his arms. "The Uchiha have long been accuse of being thieves and you will not help to strengthen that belief.
"Yes father" Naruto said, nodding.
"ok lets began then" Tatsunari looked at his son and nodded. "Attempt to channel your chakra into the bottom of your feet and then try to walk up the tree as far as you can, marking your progress with a kunai.. I suggest a running start"
Naruto channeled into his feet and ran at the tree only to fal on his ass after making it about half way up the tree.
Meanwhile, in another part of the village..
Kushina was working with her daughter Sen. "Ok, Sen tiem to start your kunoichi training"
"Yes mom" Sen answered, eagerly ready to start.
"Ok.. first let's see your charka affinity is, shall we?" Kushina said hands on her hips. "You know how this works.. Channel your chakra into this paper"
Sen did as instructed and the paper got soggy as the same time it tore.
Kushina grinned at her daughter. "Two affinities?. wind and water?.. Very good"
"Now that we know that, we work on your charka training..
"You've seen me do this before and I already explained the theory on it to you.. So get to it"
Kushina gave Sen a kunai. "Mark your progress on the tree and remember to run your first time"
Most kunoichi had less chakra then boys and if Sen was normal she would have made it up the tree right away, but do to her unnaturally large reserves as a consequence if being an Uzumaki and the host of the nine tailed fox, Sen only managed to make it less a few feet before falling down.
"Good first try, Sen.. You know that you have a lot more chakra then most kunoichi and ninja so this was to be expected.. You just have to keep working on it" Kushina said encouragingly. "Let's get in a few hours of practice and then we can take a small break at the park near the Hokage tower you like"
A few hours later as promised, Kushina took Sen to a park and took a seat on a bench to read a book while Sen looked around to se what she wanted to do.
Sen saw a boy with black hair reading a book on sealing justu level one after only few moments of looking around.
"Hi" Sen said somewhat shyly.
The boy in question, looked up from his book and greeted her back. "hi"
"What's your name?" Sen then asked, keeping his attention. "Naruto.. Naruto Uchiha.. What about you?"
"Sen Uzumaki Namikaze" Sen replied with small smile.
"NARUTO" a voice shouted.
Naruto and Sen both looked and a boy looked that had similar eyes and hair color to Naruto like, but his hair was shaped like duck's butt.
"Oh, hey Sasuke.. What's up?" Naruto asked, looking at his fellow Uchiha and cousin. "
"Why are you reading instead of playing?" Sasuke asked, glancing at the book he held in his hands.
"Because I want to get strong to keep my family and the Uchiha clan safe" Naruto replied, with determination.
Sasuke looked at Naruto puzzled, but nodded. "You act a lot like Itachi sometimes"
"Let me help, Naruto.. I don't wanna fall behind Itachi.. Or you either"
Naruto looked at Sasuke in his eyes to see if he was serious or not, but had know him all his life and knew he wasn't lying.
"Alright" Naruto said standing up before looking over at Sen. "Do you want to train with us, Sen-chan?"
Sen blushed and nodded at him. "Definitely, Naruto-kun"
"Sasuke, has uncle Fugaku taught you any taijutsu yet?" Naruto asked, putting his book away. S
Sasuke nodded at Naruto's question. "Just the basics so far"
"Good.. same as me.. Sen-chan? can you be the ref for the spar between me and Sasuke here?" Naruto asked to which Sen nodded replied. "Each hit is a point"
Naruto looked back at Sasuke and they both walked over to an area with enough room, before getting into there individual stances
Unknown to them their, Naruto's parents and Sasuke's parents, along with Itachi were watching in the trees to see how they did. Kushina on the other hand kept a partial watch to make sure her daughter didn't accidentally caught up in the spar.
Sasuke made the first move sending punch at Naruto, who ducked under it and punched Sasuke square in his stomach.
Sasuke grinned despite the pain and a jumped back a bit from Naruto who charged at him. Sasuke keep dodging to avoid a repeat and after moment he saw an opening.
Sasuke took the chance to drop his guard and attack back but Naruto managed to counter it. Though the way he did, caused both Naruto and Sasuke to lose their footing in the grass footing and fell back. Sen heard clapping and looked to several people who were clearly Uchiha standing their, clapping for them.
"That was a good match for their level, Mikoto" Edur said, standing next to her. "
"Agreed…their form could use a little work, but it was good for the first time in a practice spar"
It was at this point that Kushina came walking over and saw a blushing Sen checking on Naruto to see if he was hurt.
"Naruto?.. Are you hurt at all?" Sen asked, crouching by him. concerned for her first friend.
Naruto mostly managed to hide his blush as he replied. "I'm fine Sen-chan"
Kushina coughed to make her self known. "Edur and Mikoto? why don't I take them for dinner?.. Might be nice if they become friends like they seem to be"
The parents thought about it and seemed to agree with a yes and Kushina took Naruto, Sasuke and Sen to the Ichiraku ramen stand.
"Ah Sen-chan, Kushina" Teuchi, the owner of the ramen restaurant said. "And who are these two with you?"
"These are my friends, Naruto and Sasuke.. from the Uchiha clan" Sen answered smiling.
Kushina smiled, now that her daughter had made her first friends and noticed she noticed that Sen kept blushing every time she looked at Naruto. blushed around Naruto. My, my.. My little Sen seems to have a crush on Naruto…. She's growing up so fast... I just hope not too fast.
"So what will you al of you like to order?" Teuchi asked with a friendly smile. "I know Kushina wants her usual already.. But what about the best of you?"
"I'll take 2.. No make that 3 miso ramen" Naruto asked, licking his lips.
Sasuke order only one chicken ramen while San order a beef ramen anda miso ramen.
"I hope you can finish all of it, Naruto.." Teuchi stated as he took the order. "Either way it will be alright it will be out in a few minutes"
Sen looked Naruto and could sense he had a pure heart and aura while Sasuke seemed was a touch of strange darkness to him.. Though at the moment, the little bit of darkness in him was weighted by the light.
Naruto pulled out his book of sealing while they waited for their orders and as he read, Sen spoke up.
"um.. Naruto-kun?.." Sen asked nervously. "I was wondering.. What your and Sasuke's dreams for the what are"
"My dreams?.." Naruto asked, looking away from his book. " My dream is to keep the Uchiha clan and village safe.. and I'd like to surpass Madara Uchiha as well"
As soon as Naruto was done, Sasuke answered. "My dreams are to surpass my brother Itachi.. And protect the clan as well"
As soon as Sasuke stated his dreams, Teuchi and his previously unseen daughter that introduced herself as Ayame, bought out their orders.
A short time later, after they finished eating, Sasuke and Naruto were walking with Sen and Kushina as they made their way home when suddenly, Sen sensed a dark charka network nearby and spotted a girl being dragged away by several figures.
Reacting on instinct, Sen ran the opposite way from Naruto, Sasuke and her mother much to their surprise. Naruto followed after her with Sasuke and Kushina in tow, trying to figure out what had happened and where she was going.
Sen got a better look at the situation and saw it was young female member of the Hyuga clan and that she was being dragged away by adult male ninja wearing what looked like cloud ninja headbands. Sen didn't know the whole story, but she was determined to help the Hyuga girl and ran on as fast as her legs could carry her.
To be continued.
