Naruto: The Uchiha Chronicles - Prologue
AN: This is just an idea I wanted to get out there, I might continue this but updates will be slow. I'm mostly doing this to be allowed to register as a beta reader. If anyone who reads this wants to use pieces, idea or the entire thing for their story feel free to do so. Just remember to give credit for it. Also my appologies if anyone has this name already! I did not mean to steal it, I just can't find a better suiting name for what i have planed so far.
And another thing, MY story will not contain Yaoi.
Disclaimer: I do not own anything about the series Naruto nor any of his characters. I do how ever take credit for my plot twists and any characters that I may create.
October 9th: Konohas Council chamber.
"The beast is still heading straight towards Konoha, it must be stopped!" "We must evacuate the civilians!" "We're all going to die!" Were some of the things one could hear on the War council. This was a frantic time for Konohagakure, just a few short days ago the Kyubi no Kitsune was sighted within the borders of Country of fire on a rampage. There was no cause for concern as of yet, but the sight was worrisome. The standard emergency plan was to evacuate the civilians into the cave system under the kage mountain but with the Kyubi, such measures would surely not be enough. Legend says that the Kyubi is an unstoppable force, a power so violent that it cant be stopped. There were stories about hairs falling from it's fur that caused earthquakes that destroyed regions and others that brought new life into basins of desolate areas. A new plan was needed indeed.
The Yondaime Hokage Minato Namikaze, also known as the Yellow Flash of Konoha, the man that almost single handedly won the third ninja war stood up gaining every ones attention. Members of the War Council such as Danzo, Sandaime, the current clan heads(AN: These are the Rookie 9's Grandparents), Jiraiya and a few other Elite Jounin of the time. Everyone looked expectedly towards Minato. "I believe we must change our emergency plans.. I want all Ge, Chu, and low ranking Jounin to escort the civilians to the border to River Country and wait for a message from Konoha. If nothing is heard within 3 days head for Suna and join them. I want all the clan heads with 3 of their strongest fighters, I also want every ninja from a non clan of Jounin and higher here with in 5 hours. And I mean EVERYONE! Danzo, I also want the entire root division in on this, including you. I want these plans enacted within 2 hours!" Minato said this in the most serious of fashion. Danzo realized he had no choice in this and wouldn't have had it any other way. He'd rather die protecting Konoha than let it get turned to dust.
Konoha: 2 Hours later
"I don't wanna leave you! *sniffle*" "Will we ever see each other again?" More farewells were heard all around. Children were crying, wives and husbands crying and saying their goodbyes. Then slowly they set out. Setting out for a new start and safety. Minato stood on top of the gates looking out the country side and seeing wild dust clouds in the distance where the Kyubi was reported to be. The civilians were now a good distance out of the village and Minato noticed the wind shift and the dust cloud was now blown away from Konoha and what he saw was not pleasing. The Kyubi was facing towards the village. In fact it was heading towards fleeing populace. "EVERYONE QUICK IT'S ATTACKING THE VILLAGERS!" Minato screamed as he exploded towards the frontline to buy a little time for the rest of the ninja to join in the defense. But alas he would not arrive in time to save everyone.
October 10th time: 03:21
The fighting had been brutal, a third of the fleeing population had died, most of the chunin had died and over half of the genin. Minato had been evacuated after he had been knocked out by a passing mountain. As the Yondaime woke up he heard his wife cry out in pain and then.. He heard a child's voice. He let a single tear drop from his eye and he smiled, that was until he heard a loud constant beeeep and the doctors were frantic. He panicked. He jumped up of his bed and felt woozy and threw up, yet he stood standing, his head bleeding as he made his way towards his wife and son. As his head bled a thought occurred to him. And he made a Kage bunshin and had it write lots of letters and seal away what was most important to protect. He took his son and smiled while crying. "Naruto… I hope you can forgive your father for this one act of evil towards you. My own son…" With that he disappeared in a Yellow flash. Just at the gates of Konoha. "Sarutobi." Minato spoke softly. "This is my son Naruto, I can't think of any solution besides sealing the Kyubi. I.. I want my son to be seen as a hero.. A hero of Konoha that has saved this great village by offering his body to imprison it. Active immediately anyone that fails to see this is executed, this is law now. And you're also reinstated when I die. I will respect your decisions."
The retired Kage could only nod sadly. "And could you ask Jiraiya to at least try not to be too openly perverted around Naruto." And with that he jumped of the walls and in mid air he summoned Gamabunta the giant self-proclaimed boss Toad summon. "Bunta-sama I'm in need of your assistance.." Minato said in a pleading voice while holding Naruto close. Gamabunta looked around and saw the Kyubi. "I sure hope you're not seriously wanting me to battle that thing.. I.. I wont even last 30 seconds against the Nine tails." Gamabunta admitted shamefully for his lack of power. "No worries Bunta-sama. All I need for you is to keep me close enough to jump at him and to keep this bundle of joy safe. Can you promise me that Bunta…san?" Minato said with some more tears flowing. "Forgive me Naruto.. But this is the only way I can see Konoha ever surviving this." Gamabunta seeing this decided to attempt his humor to try and lighten up the situation. "Naruto eh? That's a weird name.." Minato frowned at that. "Ha! Don't take it so seriously, I like the runt. Alright Hokage-sama lets do this dance one last time then." Minato was shocked. Not only did Gamabunta admit he liked his kid but even called him Hokage-sama, as a superior of all things. "Th.. Thank you Bunta-sama." And with that Konoha was saved.
October 10th: Council Chambers
Murmurs were heard everywhere in the Council Chambers. "Now at the topic at hand… Naruto".
AN: The council in this fic will have a ninja side and civilian side, although most of the time joined to voice their opinions. Either side has no say over the others matters. So this is not just Danzo, Koharu and Homura
