Naruto: Reborn
Sorry I haven't been posting everyone. School sucks. I'm not sure what to do about my other story, since I made Naruto way to overpowered. I read my own story, and I laughed. It was not as good as I thought it might be. So to make up for it, here is this story. (I recommend catching up on Naruto before watching this, because spoilers.)
(Summery)
Naruto loses to Madara in the fourth great shinobi war, and with everything he ever knew lost, he falls into despair. But the kyuubi has another idea. An idea that might just save the word. With a few cliche wishes, Naruto won't be the dead last anymore, and will go throughout his life with the power he needs.
Chapter one: Rebirth
Pain. Naruto could only feel pain at that moment. He had lost. Everyone was gone. He was alone. The only person he had left to grieve with, was the kyuubi. Naruto didn't know what he was thinking. Even with Karama, he was outmatched. It was Naruto and Karama vs Madara, who was stronger then the nine tail's alone, and the ten tails. They where set up for lose from the beginning. With the help of everyone, they might have had a chance, but everyone had been put under the infinite tsukyomy (Have no idea how to spell it.) by the time Naruto had come up with his plan. Naruto hadn't been affected by the powerful genjutsu for one reason. Madara had wanted Naruto to suffer in his last moments. Naruto laughed, but not his normal laugh. It was a laugh of pure despair. He had never felt so much pain. Funny how even when he was little, he had never felt this much pain. Naruto was currently in his own mind scape, talking with Karama in there final moments. How weird it was that just a few weeks ago, Naruto and Karama where ready to kill each other. They where now having a peaceful conversation with each other.
"I'm sorry Karama. You could be roaming free right now instead of dying with me, but I don't even have the power to force you out." Naruto said with a sad smile as he sat by Karama, who was still looking pitiful after using so much chakra.
"Even If you got me out of here, I would still die. I couldn't fight Madara in this condition." the kyuubi said sadly.
"Don't feel bad Karama. We did our best, but the odds were stacked against us. I mean we're just a boy and a fox." Naruto said with a forced grin while Karama just grunted. "But despite all the pain I've been through because of you, I have really enjoyed our time together. Even though we just barely became friends."
Karama was shocked. The boy that he had caused so much pain could tell him that he had enjoyed his company. He really was like the old man who had helped the Biju. Karama decided that he would help the boy live with the last of his strength.
"Naruto. I have an idea, but your not gonna like it."
"What is it?"
"I'm going to give you another chance at life. And along with that, i'm going to give you three wishes."
"Like a genie?" Naruto asked with sparkles in his eyes.
Karama then decided to hit his head on the ground several times until he forgot what he had heard Naruto say. "Why are you still stupid up to the very end?" Karama said with a sigh. "So what do you want?" Karama asked with a hint of annoyance.
"Hmm, well I guess the first thing I want is… I have no idea whatsoever." Naruto said with his signature grin.
"Well then, why not ask for something that will help you in the next life?" Karama asked.
"What would I need help with in the next life? I mean I am a pretty fantastic ninja."
"Well, you suck with jutsu, can't throw a kunai, your not very sharp, you have no idea what's going on in your surroundings, and you are dumber then a rock." Karama said trying to hold back a laugh as Naruto's face grew more and more shocked with every word.
"That's not fair you overgrown hairball!" Naruto shouted.
"How is it not fair? It's all true and you know it." The nine tail's said with a smirk.
"Well what kind of wish can I do to fix those problems?" Naruto asked, admitting defeat.
"How about you try asking for a power, or kekkai genkai, or something." The kyuubi said with annoyance.
Naruto thought about it. He had always been jealous of Sasuke's sharingan. He decided to have the kyuubi make him a Doujutsu. One that would give him a distinct advantage in battle. "Karama?" Naruto asked.
"What? Have you thought about what you want? Hurry up. I need chakra to give you your wishes and to send you back in time."
"Can you make me a Doujutsu?" Naruto asked.
"So, your saying you want me to make a new Doujutsu, when I only have a tenth of my power, and then put it in to your DNA, without harming or killing you?" Karama asked.
"Yes I do." Naruto said. "I want to be able to freeze time." Naruto said, making kurama sigh.
"Fantastic. What do you want it to look like?" Karama asked, giving up on the blonde ever having an average I.Q.
"I want it too have the color of my eyes, with a swirl that looks like a whirl pool on it." Naruto said.
"I see. That should only take about one half of the power I have left. I need a third to send you back in time. As long as your wishes only cost a tenth of my power each, we should be alright. To do what you have asked plus send you back in time will take out a little over a seventh of my power." Karama said.
"Then can I combine my second and third wish?" Naruto asked.
"I don't know why you want to do that, but alright." Karama said.
"I want you to be reborn with me. Maybe as my twin brother." Naruto said with a smile.
Karama was shocked. True, he could do it, but then there would be a second kyuubi in the world. If he where the one the kyuubi got sealed into, it might cause problems. He would have to insure that Naruto be the one picked. To do all that, he would have to start taking chakra from his current form. At least he would get a new one as a human.
"It will be hard, and I might lose my lovely tails, but it can be done. I'll start now." the kyuubi said. As he said it, a large amount of chakra was forced into Naruto, and it slowly started to go to his eyes. It burned, but so did the rest of his body. Naruto could take it. He could feel it in his brain. His DNA starting to change. After it was all done, Naruto fell to the ground. It had taken all he had not to scream. The burning in his head was horrible.
"All… done." the nine tails said, breathing hard. "Try it out."
Naruto got up and pumped some chakra to his eyes. When Karama stopped blinking, Naruto knew it had worked. Naruto stopped pumping chakra into his eyes, and watched as Karama just stared at him.
"Well, are you gonna do it or not?" Karama asked. Naruto laughed.
"I did." Naruto explained what had happened.
"Well then, I guess it works. Now to change myself into a human." Karama said. Karama's chakra started to spread throughout his body faster and faster until he started to shrink and lose his hair. When Karama was done, Naruto was looking at a teenager his age, who looked almost identical to him, but had black hair with red streaks. (Look up Menma Namikazi, or watch a certain Naruto movie, and then add red streaks.) Naruto also noticed that he was only wearing Naruto's torn jacket over his legs. Naruto saw that his eyes where a blood red color. The color that his eyes got when he had demonic chakra in his system.
"Well, I guess we will be twin's soon. But it almost like I'm looking in a mirror." Naruto said with his signature grin. Karama tried to do the grin, but it came off as satanic to Naruto.
"There is one catch to this though." Karama said. "I don't have enough chakra to bring my memories along with me. So there's something I need you to do as a baby. I need you to be the one that has my past self sealed into."
"There's gonna be another nine tails?" Naruto asked.
"Not a different one, just my past being." Karama said, starting to look at his human form.
"Well then, I guess I'm ready." Naruto said with a grin.
"Then let's get to the past." Karama said, sending the last of his remaining chakra into the air, and manipulating it to form a rift. Karama's unconscious form feel into it, and Naruto watched as he feel. It was ten seconds after Karama had fallen that Naruto joined him. And with that, Naruto and Karama's souls went back in time.
Sixteen Year's Earlier
"Kushina. I'm so sorry. But I have to do this. I couldn't ask someone else to give up there child." Minato said to the unconscious form of his wife, who was holding there two son's in her arms. Minato had a big choice to make. He would have to Damn one of his son's to a life of misery. He decided not to separate the chakra of the nine tails to both of his sons, because then he would put them both in a horrible situation. Minato looked at the two boys. The one in his wife's left arm had black hair, with little patches of red, while the other had his bright blond hair. He could explain the second boy's hair, but not the first's. He didn't think the Uzumaki bloodline had any member's with a hair color other then red, and his family didn't have anything other then blonde or brown hair.
He looked at the two boys for a long time. He finally decided that he would use the boy who had the black hair. He went to take the boy, but as soon as he tried, the blonde headed boy started crying. Minato backed away from the black headed boy and the blonde headed one's crying stopped. He tried again to the same reaction. He smiled at the little boy who had his hair. "Already making sacrifices? You will be a fantastic ninja when you get older. I'm sorry I have to do this." He went to pick up the blonde, thinking he might cry, but to his surprise, the little boy smiled. He opened his eyes, and revealed bright blue eyes. He looked at his other son and saw that he too had opened his eyes, revealing crimson red ones. When Minato picked up his son with blonde hair, he was surprised when he smiled. Almost as if the little boy knew what was going to happen, yet accepted it.
"I'm sorry Naruto. Thank you for protecting your brother. What do you think we should name your brother?" Minato asked, not expecting an answer.
"Men...ma." Naruto gurgled out. Minato was shocked at first, but shook it off as a coincidence. But to tell the truth, Menma was the name that Minato had originally wanted to name his son.
"Menma Uzumaki Namikaze. What a name." Minato said and smiled. He grabbed a piece of paper and wrote the name down, and pinned it to his son's blanket. He then did the same for Naruto. He then grabbed Naruto and walked him to the door, taking one last look at the other half of his family. He then opened the door and prepared to do what no father would ever want to do.
During the sealing
Minato was sealing the kyuubi into his son, but before he could finish the kyuubi tried to attack Naruto. Minato jumped in front of the attacked, but he wasn't the only one. There was another person in front of him. One with red hair, and perfect skin. It was his wife, Kushina.
"I'm sorry Kushina. I have failed as a father, and as a husband." Minato said, tears in the corner of his eyes.
"I forgive you. I just wish we had more time with our kids." Kushina said. Kushina had seen what was going to happen and had put Menma next to Naruto, while blocking the incoming blow.
"Do you have anything you want to say to our son's before we die?" Minato asked, the tears he had held in breaking through and streaming down his face.
"Naruto, Menma, be careful about the three deadly rules of a ninja. And beware of Ero-sensei. Eat your fruits and vegetables every day, or you won't get very tall. Be careful about what you do in life, and always protect each other. Be polite and kind and helpful." Kushina said, crying until her tears feel on to her son's faces. "I'm sorry Minato. I took to long. Do you want to say anything to them?"
"Since there's two of you, you can have my last name, and neither of you will be affected by the clan restoration act since there's now, well, two of you. But even though you have Hokage blood in your vein's, doesn't mean you will be respected and liked. But if you are, don't let people give things to you. Earn your status. And if you have a dream that you know you can accomplish, accomplish it." Minato said as the nine tail's disappeared and he and his wife hit the ground.
"Minato! Kushina!" the third hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi yelled as he ran to them. When he and his team of ANBU got there, Kushina was already gone. "No, were to late. Minato, please tell me what to do!"
"I have a request, lord third." Minato said as he started taking his final breaths. "Give my sons my last name, but don't let the council give or take things from them."
"I can do that. I'm sorry Minato. I'm sorry." Sarutobi said, letting his own tears fall.
"It's alright. I'll be fighting half the kyuubi's power soon. But maybe I can see Kushina one day soon, and tell her how sorry I am." Minato said as his remaining life left him.
Later In the council Room
"What's going on?"
"Where is the fourth?"
"What happened to the kyuubi?"
"Silence!" Sarutobi said, making everyone in the room fall silent. "There are some things I would like to tell you all. First off, the kyuubi has been defeated." He said as some people started to cheer. He held up his hand for silence. "Sadly, the only thing the fourth could do was seal the demon into a newly born boy, and in the process, died." He said, but as soon as he did, there where shouts for the child's death, and people crying out in despair. He called for silence again, and took two children from the arms of an ANBU. "These are the sons of Minato Namikazi, and Kushina Uzumaki. And one of them is the new container of the kyuubi." He said, and instead of a large reaction, all he got where shocked faces.
"Which one hold's the kyuubi?" Danzo, a man that had used to be friends with Hiruzen asked.
"Minato asked that it not be told to anyone, because he didn't want one of his son's to be hurt or killed. He didn't want people to take anything, or give anything to the boys. As of this moment on, the only thing that will be private is the mentioning of the kyuubi being sealed, or of the conditions of the sealing. The only exception to this law is me, or the boys. All in agreement say I." He said, but it had come off as a demand, more then a question.
"I!" came a large group of people.
"All who oppose?"
There was silence at the question.
"Good. I will now pass the law." Hiruzen said stamping the paper he had made. Now the boy's would be safe. But there was still one more thing he needed to ask. "We need to find a place for these boys to stay. Any ideas?" But even before he could look around there was a response.
"I would be honored to take on the children of my sensei, lord third." said the ANBU standing next to them. The ANBU in question was Kakashi Hatake.
"My clan will take the boy's into our care." said Fukaku Uchiha, the head of the Uchiha clan.
"I will take the boys in and train them to be strong and powerful." said Danzo.
Several more offers where made, but Sarutobi decided that he would take one of the offers. He knew he should, and knew that he would be reliable.
"Naruto Namikaze and Menma Namikaze will be put into Kakashi Hatake's care. Any objections will be ignored, and before mentioned Kakashi will be payed enough to care for the boys, and himself, and will be given jonin status again. Any objection's will be ignored." Hiruzen said, making the council member's that had offered there guidance to the boys sit down, and gave the boys to Kakashi, who had taken off his ANBU mask.
"Thank you lord third. Kakashi said, feeling grateful that not only did he get to help his sensei's children, he also got to quit the ANBU ranks. The ANBU units where always alert, and tired. Not to mention that one third of the group died in the first year they where deployed, and another third quit.
Three Years Later
"Naruto! Stop walking on the wall's! Your getting footprints all over the place!" Yelled Kakashi as he chased after Naruto, The hyperactive son of his sensei who had a knack for getting in trouble. Not to mention that the boy had nearly broken a tree trying to use a genin level chakra control exercise, which he had gotten down after only an hour. And yet the boy always seemed to surprise him. He was only three, and maybe a foot and a half tall, yet he was already using A rank techniques. He had given Kakashi a heart attack when he made five shadow clones, and got off with just breathing hard. The boy had incredible chakra reserves. The other child was pretty normal, except he had a very evil side. He liked to play pranks like putting laxatives in his coffee, putting nails on chairs, and even hiding his Icha Icha books. Now that had been pure torment. But In all the times he had with the two boys, he was glad that he could take care of them.
'Minato sensei, I wonder what your children will surprise me with next. If you can see this, then your probably laughing. But I'm glad that I can pay you back. Thank you sensei, for having such amazing children, and for helping me when your alive. I promise I will protect and teach them all I know.
