Outskirt of Konoha
A certain blonde stared at the direction of the kyuubi, wit a smaller blonde in his arms. The smaller blonde, brought into the world no less than half an hour ago, was about to be burdened with a task no other can do.
"I'm sorry Naruto, I know that I should be there to watch you grow, help tie your shoes, tease you about the girls you like, share a bowl of ramen together…." whispered the Yondaime, as a single tear dropping from his left eye. "But I hope you understand sometime in the future, why your old man had to do what he did."
The kage wiped away his tears, and with a bold determined face, worthy of a kage, he made his way to the demon on top of his trusty toad boss.
He looked on to the beast with eyes that told much about the blonde kage's love for his village.
The brave blonde, known as the yellow flash across the shinobi lands, started to gather chakra to use a jutsu that would end the demon's onslaught and terror. However, he suddenly felt a snap to his neck, and his world went black.
"Minato, if you are willing to sacrifice your own son for the village, he will need you. Hopefully people will not view the child as a demon, yet as the one who is keeping the demon at bay, the one who will soon become the Namikaze heir, the one who truly saved the village. However if the villagers are ignorant and blinded by their hatred, you of any people, need to be there for your son. This is why this burden is not yours to bare."
The one known as the professor of Konoha, looked onto the beast with a smile, and unleashed the death god.
Hokage tower: Two days after the attack
"I realize that the attack has not only demolished the entire western part of the village, but also that we lost a considerable amount of shinobis and the Sandaime himself" spoke out Homura. "Which is why Yondaime-sama, that I suggest we put the village in a code red lockdown until we have recovered much of the village's former strength.
"Yes that is a wise decision Homura-san, we must also be on the watch for foreign attack, and the other shinobi villages must have surely heard of our losses and could be planning an attack this moment."
He received his answer in the form of nods and sighs.
"I also have come across the fact that the bijuu has been sealed inside your boy Minato-san" pointed out a Uchiha counsel member.
"Do we have a problem with that fact honorable Uchiha?" questioned a ticked off blonde.
"As you may have noticed, the kyuubi has devastated our village, and with that kind of power, we are just concerned about the boy's ability to control the beast (wording his intentions carefully)" said the Uchiha
"So you are questioning the Sandaime's sacrifice? and also the jutsu's seal was developed by me a seal master and surely you know the seal is designed to help the boy draw out the kyuubi's power to assist him in protecting the village." spoke out an irritated kage.
Except for a slight growl from one particular clan head, no reply came back from the any counselor.
"Ok if there is nothing else to discuss, this meeting is dismissed."
Uchiha Compound
"Damn that Namikaze, blinded because he will never view his son as the demon. He will be the death of all us." raged Fugaku Uchiha clenching his fists.
"Tou-san, is there something wrong?" asked the Uchiha prodigy
"Itachi, there are secrets that I cannot tell you as it is the Yondaime's decree, but all I will tell you is that the Namikaze child cannot be trusted, and neither can his father. Do you understand?" whispered the clan head
"Hai" was the reply
Namikaze Grave
"My beloved Kushina, it is not fair it had to end this way. I lost you, sensei, and other people that were dear to me. I remember when we first met at whirlpool country. It was the best days of my life, just you, me, and nothing else. I just hope, wherever you are, that it is a place without war and fear. Forgive me." even using his kage strength, couldn't stop his tears from flowing like a fountain.
Minato took one last look at the tombstone, before heading back to his estate.
Here lies Namikaze Kushina.
From birth to grave, never regretted, and lived life to the fullest.
A kunoichi who served and protected.
A wife who gave happiness and joy.
A person who will always be remembered.
