This is the very first fanfiction that I have ever written, and even thought about. The idea kept nagging me so much, that I couldn't sleep at night. So one school day I decided to just type this idea out and see what other people thought of it.

In this story Minato and Kushina are younger than they are in canon.

Minato is 20 years old, and Kushina is 18 years old. I feel like this is possible because of the world they live in and the fact that they have to grow up fast. And it's fun to write drama….. but hey that's just a minor reason.

It's not. hueheuhue

I don't own Naruto, the only person I own is the OC ^^

Enjoy!

OC P.O.V.

I slowly opened my eyes, but the light was too bright so I quickly shut them again.

'Ugh, sun I love you, but do you have to do this every morning?'

I tried to get up, but I felt a sharp pain near my liver the moment my upper body bent. "Gah!"

Groaning from the pain and the sunlight in my eyes, I reached down to my shirt and lifted it up very carefully.

I raised my head a little and saw a big wound there where my liver was supposed to be, and it was bleeding badly. As I started looking around me, I saw a small brown backpack lying on the ground a few feet to my right.

Standing up while pressing my hand on the wound, I walked over to the backpack and open it. Inside I could see another T-shirt, a metal box, and a first aid kit. Taking out the first aid kit and opening it, I began applying the gun powder that I found inside and applied it on the wound. When I made sure that it was done properly I ignited the gunpowder and bit down a scream. After cleaning the wound, I could clearly see that the bleeding stopped and applied some bandages with iodine to make sure the wound does not get infected.

'Well, that was a terrific way to wake up..' I could see trees everywhere I looked, there was the sound of insects on the background and through a small opening, between the leaves of the trees above me, I could see the moon… Wait… The moon?

'I'm pretty sure I don't live inside a cave, so how did the moon blind me?' shrugging and leaving that thought behind I looked around me again and spotted the brown backpack from just now, and a sword.

The sword was quite long, but not large. Judging from the size it looks like you can either wear it with either both hands or just one. The sheath is black and has a red line that forms a dragon and the tail reaches to the tip of the sheath.

I decided to just pick everything up, so I grabbed the backpack and the sword. But as I picked up the sword it began to hum and shine a little. My eyes widened and I accidently dropped the sword and took a few steps back. "Woah… what the hell?" I said to no one in particular. As I took a few steps forward to pick up the sword again, I heard the same humming noise as before.

'What the hell? It feels as if it's happy that I'm picking it up… and I must say.. it feels good. It's heavy yet it feels like I can wield it without any problem.'

The moment I swung the sword on my back, the humming stopped. I shrugged it off as an hallucination because seriously, a sword is not supposed to make a sound when it's sheathed, right?

"Well, where am I?" I looked around me once again, but it had same result.

After walking for a long while I took a good look at my surroundings and noticed that the only difference from a few hours before was that the sun was long gone and the moon was high up in the sky illuminating the forest.

'Maybe I should search for a higher spot. Climbing in these trees would suffice, but how the hell am I going to reach those branches. They're like 20 meters high, so it's not like you can jump that high. But ah well, you apparently have humming swords too, so to hell with logic!'

As I bent my knees I took a deep breath. Then I released all the energy I could muster… and I flew up through the branches and above the leaves.

'Holy shit…' I looked around me and saw light and a lot of smoke in the distance, New Year's maybe?

That's when my ascension stopped and I began to descend. "AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!"

Reacting on instinct I unsheathed my sword. I began to focus on the branches that I was supposed to fall on. I began slicing the branches and thrust the sword in the tree with my left hand to stop my descend, while preventing opening my wound again.

I released my breath. 'If I open that wound again, I won't survive. I'm running low on blood, meaning I'm on the edge of consciousness… Just great. Lucky me, but I got to check out the location the smoke comes from. It might be a village. God, why can I only remember bits and pieces, it sucks!'

'The light is on my left, so I might as well go in that direction.'

- A short while later -

"Ugh... this forest is so big." I muttered while I worked my way through the bushes and branches on my way.

While I was thinking about where I was and if I could recognize something that might help me with working this situation out, a sudden loud roar and an insane amount of killer intent brought me to my knees.

"W-What... the .. hell!" My eyes widened, my breathing became irregular and I started to sweat all over. "What kind of sorcery is this?!"

While getting back on my feet I did a few breathing routines to get some air and much needed oxygen. I only saw trees when I looked around again, but no animals. There was not that much wild life around here, but it was definitely here before. 'Whatever it was just now, it's bad news. I better check it out before it comes hunting for me.'

I looked up to the sky and suddenly got an idea. Bending my knees yet again, I prepared to jump high, although not as high as before. The moment I was above the trees my breath hitched inside my throat. There, standing before me, was a giant ass fucking fox with nine tails. "WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK!"

There was a village to my left and it was on fire. It didn't take a genius to connect the dots. 'That fox is attacking the village! I've got to eliminate it, but how... I mean I got a sword and superhuman strength. But shit that thing is gigantic... Well, fuck it. I can't stand by and let innocent people die!' With my renewed resolve and confidence I take off at insane speed towards the fox. 'Holy crap I just pushed myself off against the air... nice.'

I unsheathed my sword the moment I got close to the clearing and readied myself for the oncoming battle. That's when I saw three people next to the beast: a woman, a man and a baby. Glancing back at the beast I saw that he was about to strike the child, so I intercepted the claw and blocked it with my blade. "Hnnnng..!" I grunted. The immense force the beast tried to strike the baby with was insane and it caused my wound to reopen, but I kept the paw at bay. Glancing to my right, I saw the woman and man looking at me with eyes wide open. It actually looked pretty funny.

"Good evening." I said, smirking.

Instead of waiting for an answer, I pushed back the paw with a bit of effort and instinctively assumed a battle stance. I put my legs a bit further apart, bent my knees slightly and held my sword in my right hand. My right arm was put to shoulder height with a 90 degree angle while my left arm was positioned in front of me.

I could see the fox going for another strike and thus I engaged. Seeing the claw coming towards me I prepared to parry it. Straining my body to the limit I managed to do it, causing the fox to stumble. I saw the opportunity and went for the head of the fox attempting to stab one of his eyes, but one of the tails of the fox slammed me back down.

"Aah!" I yelled when I hit the ground. Standing back up again I could see that I was in quite a crater. 'Holy crap, I survived that.'

I landed in front of the red haired woman after jumping out of the crate blocking yet another claw of the fox. Grunting, I pushed the claw away and lunged at its leg, making the big fox roar in pain. Now that all of his attention was on me, I ran to the other side of the clearing while dodging a claw here and there. Resuming my battle with the fox, I kept op parrying, blocking, and getting a few hits in here and there. 'Yes, I can do this!' If only I didn't think that…

Jumping over a claw, I saw the fox's face coming towards me. I didn't see the attack from the side coming while I was preparing to block his attack from the front. "Aaah!" Flying through several dozen trees and finally stopping, meaning the last tree didn't give in, I fell to the ground. 'Fuck, that hurt.' Bleeding heavily from my chest, I could see three big lines. Probably from the claws of that damn fox. Standing up yet again, although with a lot more effort than last time, I ran back towards the clearing as fast as my legs could take me. I engaged the fox again with adrenaline pumping through my veins.

I saw the blond male talking to the red haired woman. Suddenly he stood up and began walking in our direction. The woman behind him was screaming "MINATO! DON'T DO IT!". 'Huh Minato, what a weird name.' Suddenly, I had to jump back, narrowly avoiding decapitation 'Woops, I should keep my attention on the big guy.' After a few minutes I noticed that I was beginning to slow down. 'Shit, the wounds are getting to me... I can't keep this up for longer. Why won't you just go down stupid fox!' But the fox wasn't showing any sign of slowing down yet.

What happened next baffled my mind. I landed next to the blonde male from before and then he looked at me with a smile. "Hello stranger, thank you for saving my wife's and son's life. Without you I would have had to make this sealing faster. Causing a bigger chance of it going horribly wrong."

I looked at him as if he had grown a second head "What the hell are you talking about? Sealing, are you planning to wrap him up in tin foil? That won't work ya know." I said to him

Suddenly the man chuckled as if he heard something funny.

"Ya know?"

I blushed and coughed.

"Sorry that kind of just came out."

The blond male looked at me and said "The name's Minato and that big fox over there is the Kyuubi. But enough about that. He spotted us, so I'll make this quick. Hold this guy off for a little longer, I have prepared something but it will take time and my wife doesn't have enough chakra left to summon the chains."

'Chakra?' I thought but shrugged it off and nodded.

"Whatever you have in mind better works, because I can't hold him off for much longer."

"It will work, trust me." He said. As if I would normally trust a stranger out of nowhere, but this situation isn't exactly normal now.

I sped off towards the fox and resumed combat, but I gained more wounds over time because I wasn't able to keep up anymore. 'Isn't that guy finished yet… I can't keep this up any longer.' Parrying the claw I jumped back and fell to my knees, panting like a dog that ran across a river with the owner stuck to the cord that got wrapped around his ankle.

Then it happened. Suddenly a large white haired dude appeared behind the male with some kind of blue human shaped energy in front of him. Then an arm came out of Minato's stomach, grabbed the Kyuubi and pulled some kind of red evil looking energy out of him. I thought that this wasn't supposed to happen so I stood up and ran towards the baby.

The red energy went towards the baby but slammed into me as a jumped in front of it at the last second. At first nothing happened, but then I felt an intense burning from my inside. I took every ounce of will power I had not to scream it out. I saw Minato's shocked look, but I couldn't keep standing anymore so I shoved my blade into the ground with my right hand and sunk to my knees. Clutching at my heart I began hyperventilating and sweating all over.

'God…. what… is going… on…'

I was looking at the ground, so I didn't see Minato pulling out a blue energy from the fox and sealing it in the baby. After he had sealed the baby he collapsed, never to see the light of day again.

When I looked back up again, I saw Minato on the ground motionless and the baby bawling his eyes out. When I looked to my right, I saw the red haired woman slumping to the ground as well. Deciding to take the baby over to her I stood up, sheathed my sword and grabbed the baby. Slowly dragging my feet over to the red head, I saw my sight beginning to grow darker and darker.

'I've… got… to… make it!' I yelled in my mind. When I reached the woman, I saw her looking up to me. I couldn't see the expression on her face because it was so dark and I was so tired. I bent over and gave the baby to her before standing back up again. I unsheathed my sword and stabbed it in the ground and began leaning on it.

The last thing I heard where silent footsteps, then some muttering and some old man in weird clothing before the world went dark.

Well that's it.

Let me know what you guys think.

Continue or not?

Feel free to PM me, some I could really use some pointers here and there seeing as I have zero experience with writing.

I updated because I found lots of grammar mistakes etc. The next chapter is still in the making, it's well under way and I might finish it this weekend. Then again, I also have to do a grammar sweep ,taking out some mistakes, and maybe fix some parts that might be confusing. (I type my story on the go, I only think up scenario's and I cross my fingers hoping that I don't make the character a Mary Sue...)

That is all I had to say :P
