Fourteen Years Ago….
Uzumaki Kushina gazed up at the Fourth Hokage with hooded emerald eyes. The light of the candles that created the ambiance of the room was easily captured by the depths of her emerald beauties making them sparkle with passion. With a slight arch of her neck and slight unnoticeable adjustment to the fabric of her formal kimono she allowed a tiny bit more of her cleavage to show. She reached across the young Hokage for the sake making sure to brush up against his arm and as she poured herself and the leader of Konoha another drink, she allowed her delicate wrists to be seen. She bowed her head slightly having her long burgundy-black hair to sweep across her shoulders as she leaned into him while she sipped at her drink. With the brief meeting of eyes she gave him her most endearing smile.
As an Uzumaki, she new why she was specifically chosen for what she was about to do. Sure any full blooded woman can seduce a man and create life, but as an ambassador for her country—no her village for that is where she placed her honor and respect; it would take an unbreakable bond between these two powerful entities for this treaty to hold. So here she was on her last night in Konoha, playing the part of a seductress, a part that she was truly not experienced in but was still pulling it off with all the grace, power and beauty like the women of her line that came before her. Sharing drinks with her adversary, she new she must get this man just drunk enough to notice but not really enough to care. So as she pounced on him like a female mantis she added all the right sensual touches and caresses so that when she drew him into her kiss they would both lower themselves to the ground in the Hokages Office to spend a passion filled night leaving them both sated yet wanting more and a young Kushina with child.
It was early morning when Kushina woke, touching her still flat stomach where she knew her unborn child grew. Gazing out towards the rising sun, she new that her village would soon have another heir to the dwindling Uzumaki clan, a clan so prized for the power that they potentially held, that they would knowingly whore its only existing heir out to another powerful entity i.e. the unknowing Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato who is mostly known and feared by the title that he has earned on the battle field—The
Yellow Flash This is just so that her village in Uzu no Kuni (Whirlpool Country) could gain more power from breeding its own tool to become more powerful from the lineage of the Fourth Hokage and to hopefully gain a little leverage when it becomes time to flex its own strength towards Konoha in the years to come.
So here she was standing in the middle of the Hokages Office allowing the early morning rays of the day to brush against her golden toned skin as she smoothed out the wrinkles of her kimono. So deep in thought, she did not notice that the Fourth Hokage in all of his nude glory rise to stand behind her, until he wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her firmly against him and began to nuzzle her neck.
"Stay," he whispered softly into her ear. He boldly trailed one of his arms up her side to allow his hand to cup one of her bountiful breasts and slowly began to massage it.
Whimpering out a no, she quickly turned within his embrace and held tightly to his strong tall frame. For all her strength and pride she did not realize until that very moment how much that man—Namikaze Minato had truly affected her. How much she had fallen for him even though she had only known him for a week and within that time frame she was mostly cursing him for the duty that she knew she had to perform before she left. A duty that he would know nothing about until thirteen years later and one in which nine months from now would cost her, her life because she had foreseen it. A gift of many that wished she did not have, nor wish it on her child for fear that her child would have her same fate or worse. Disentangling herself from his arms she moved toward the main doors.
"Please, Kushina stay for me, stay in Konoha," the Fourth whispered out more firmly hoping to not attract too much attention to there situation.
"No," she stated more firmly. "I have too much pride in myself to stay any longer than I already have, Minato. I will be no man's second choice, go home to your wife and son, the Fire Lord's daughter must be wandering where you are at this time of hour for her bed must be cold. I have shamed myself enough as it is." Holding back the tears in her voice and eyes she quickly yet quietly left the Hokages Office knowing this would be the last time she would ever see him again.
Meeting up with her subordinates, at the south eastern gates of Konoha, she quickly said, "It is done," and from there on out without saying a word more they left to return to there precious home village in Uzu no Kuni, the place where all things collide to meet their end.
Nine Months Later—October 10
Uzumaki Kushina lay panting on the old rusted cot within the many chambers of the Hokage Tower. Sweat clung at her brow and torso, slowly dripping on the once white cotton sheets making them damp and dingy looking, while blood soaked between her legs creating a tangy metallic smell within the air. The wet nurse had left an hour ago searching for the Hokage or Doctor even though the birth was about to commence, as Kushina could already feel her child beginning to crown. In Kushina's opinion the bitch did not know what the hell she was doing, so Kushina demanded she retrieve someone who could at least save her child even though she knew her life was coming to an end.
Rubbing at her stomach she clumsily smeared the remaining of the transfer seal that was inscribed onto her stomach onto her hand just as another painful contraction came. Stifling her scream she tried to move into a more comfortable position on her back. The sealing of the demon spirit Kyubi came at a high price for her village even a greater price for herself as she will never see her child grow in life, for she was—no is still both the medium and sacrifice for her child and village..
Unable to hold back the screaming any longer, she let loose one last painful scream that will forever be heard in the halls of the Hokage tower carrying with it all of her pain, anger, resentment, and sorrow which will be imprinted on the hearts and minds of her fellow shinobi in the years to come. Kushina had already foreseen that when she left this plane of existence all she would need to carry with her was the love of her child and the hope that her child would overcome any and all adversity in her life.
And with that Kushina took her last breath just as when the Doctor's came rushing in and began cutting her child from her womb. Never having the opportunity to hold or gaze upon her child as the Death God took her soul away.
