Prologue

Kyuubi no Yoko attacked Konohagakure in a blazing fury. All Leaf shinobi were ruthlessly killed off while their leader, the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze, was at the other side of the village waiting for his son to be born. He couldn't kill the demon, it was too strong, but he could seal it.

'Kushina-chan, get our precious baby out so I can save the village. We are in great peril right now!' Minato thought while writing his will, his letter to his baby when he is of age, and what his wishes were for the baby. Soon a nurse came out. Minato stood up, waiting for the news.

"Hokage-sama, it's a boy!" the nurse shouted.

"Yahoooo! The village will be saved, but what about Kushina-chan?" he asked.

"I am sorry Hokage-sama, but Kushina-sama died from childbirth." the nurse said.

"Where's my son, I need to get him." The nurse handed the baby boy to him and Minato shunshined to where the Kyuubi was and summoned Gamabunta.

"Hey Minato, why did you summon me?" Minato pointed at the Kyuubi. "Don't tell me you're gonna use that jutsu?"

"I'm sorry, old friend, but I am the Hokage and I need to save the village even if it means killing myself to do so.

"Well, I guess be can't have that last sake together do we?"

Minato performed the hand seals and yelled, "Shikki Fuujin no Jutsu!"

Soon a great flash of white light appeared. Kakashi Hatake, a newly recruited Jounin went to see if his sensei was alright, but when he went to the scene, all that was left was a baby with whiskers and his sensei's body was nowhere to be found except for his clothing. He searched for anything in his sensei's clothing and found two scrolls. Kakashi carried the baby and the two scrolls to the now deceased Hokage's office. When he arrived, the Sandaime(Third) Hokage and all of the clan heads were meeting with each other to talk about the boy.

Haruno Kusabana(Pink) was the first to speak. "Hokage-sama, who is going to raise this thing?"

" I am not sure, but he is most certainly not a thing. What do the others think about it? Fugaku?" said the newly reinstated Third Hokage.

Fugaku Uchiha just responded, "No! I will not let this demon be in my family!"

The Hokage finally notices Kakashi and the baby.

Soon he says, "Ah, Kakashi, is that Minato's son?"

"Yes, he is Hokage-sama," as Kakashi responds back, "Sensei is gone, but is Kushin-"

"I am sorry, Kakashi, but she died in childbrith due to all of the stress."

"No, this can't be. All of my precious people are gone." 'Why does this only happen to me. Why?!'

"So, anyway, what is his name?" questioned the Sandaime Hokage.

"I am not sure Hokage-sama, but there were two scrolls in Sensei's pocket. Can you please read what it says?" says Kakashi as he handed the Sandaime the scrolls.

"It says and I quote:

'Dear Kakashi, clan heads, and Jiji-san,

I am terribly sorry to leave you like this everyone, especially to you, Kakashi. Any way, I defeated the Kyuubi no Yoko, but it was at a price. I had to sacrifice myself to seal him and my son had to be the his jailer. He is not the demon himself. He is a human being and the seal will never break. It is a special shiki fuuin seal. In time, the Kyuubi's chakra will fuse with his chakra making it his own. His name is Naruto and will be treated as a hero, the hero who saved Konohagakure. The other scroll talks about his past and his inheritance. I must hurry, the Kyuubi is coming and Naruto was just born.

Minato Namikaze

Yondaime Hokage of Konohagakure'."

Everyone was either crying or very frustrated. Kakashi was also crying for the first time in years. Then the Sandaime Hokage broke the silence.

"Okay, now on to other business. Who shall take care of Naruto here?"

Soon Hiashi spoke up and said, " Well, first of all, Hokage-sama, should he be called Naruto Namikaze or by his mother's name, Naruto Uzumaki?"

"Well, Hiashi, since we can't have Naruto killed by his father's enemies, so I guess we will need to name him Naruto Uzumaki." responded the Sandaime Hokage.

"Very well, Hokage-sama, I shall take care of him, then, not for power, but for my old teammate." said Hiashi.

"Hokage-sama, I would like to adopt Naruto, instead. Sensei did a lot for me and I want to be the one to take care of his son."

"Are you sure Kakashi? I mean you are only a child yourself and a jounin as well. But, then again, I can promote you to ANBU to increase your wages to take care of Naruto. There are not a lot of life-threatening missions lately, so you can spend lots of time with him."

"I accept, Hokage-sama. I swear by the Hatake clan that I will raise Naruto into the best ninja ever." said Kakashi.

"All right, Kakashi, you will adopt the kid. Just sign these papers and Naruto Uzumaki-I mean Naruto Hatake will be yours." said the Sandaime Hokage.

Kakashi took the baby and stared at him. He was so peaceful sleeping, not knowing that he had been placed a large burden on his shoulders. He took the baby to his house and boy, was he going to regret it since day 1.
