Hello there my fellow readers and writers of fanfiction, M.D. Knight here. First off, I want everyone to know that this isn't a rip-off. I am the original author, however, when I was first starting out, I was only running for the fun of it. Now, I am running for not only the fun of it but because I am trying to build a reader base for my writing style as I am trying to become an author. As such, I am working on the book that I am going to officially publish as I work on building my reader base. Which, also means that I am needing to clean up the stories that I have written so far. Thus, the reasoning for my new account and pin-name. Now, into the real author notes.

Ok, first off, I want to apologize for how long it has taken for me to put out anything, be that an update or even a story-transfer. However, there is a reason for this, my editing software went on the frits and I have been fighting to fix it give that I don't have the cash for a new one. It was only recently that I even realized that the problem wasn't even technical, it was Human error. So, I apologize. That said, I believe I have a way to make it up to you all. As I have Four, that right, Four chapters that I am posting. The first is this one here, a story-transfer chapter, with the other three consisting of two more story-transfers which are all the first chapters to of the story-transfers, and the last one being a story update chapter. The first story is, The Yin to Naruto's yang followed by Of Fire and Sky and finished with The Asgardian Maelstrom: deity of Chaos and Justice

Now, on with the chapter, and please remember to leave a review.

Chapter 1

Naruto was currently laying on the gravel-covered ground of the bank of the river that flowed through the Valley of The End. He was battered and beaten, with blood slowly leaking from his wounds at a snail's pace, as it was all the Kyūbi could do at this time to save Naruto's life. So, the giant fox focused on slowing Naruto's blood circulation in order to keep the Ningen alive long enough to get medical treatment. At which point, it would be able to change its focus to actually healing the very boy that it had come to secretly see as its own, thanks to how much suffering Naruto had been through. Yet despite that, the Kyuubi would still rather die than admit it to anyone, including himself. Thus, it kept up it's, I've got a stick the size of the Hokage monument shoved up my ass, act.

Sasuke, himself, was near collapsing thanks to the injuries he had gained in his fight with Naruto being no laughing matter. Something that nearly made him smile at for reasons he wasn't ready to admit. However, Sasuke could still tell the change in his eyes, despite his current refusal of the joy he felt for achieving such a feat, without having to ensure his best friend's death. Though when he felt Kakashi's chakra getting close he finally caved to his joy and for the first time in years smiled a genuine smile.

Decided he had waited long enough, and now needed to leave, Sasuke started to walk away, so that his presence wouldn't get in the way of his best friend being able to live, as he had gained the next level with his eyes, with a means of saving Naruto having presented itself.

Yet, even with Sasuke's cold attitude settling back in place, he still mentally accepted Naruto as his brother. Something that the Uchiha had been doing everything he could to refute such an idea, as to do so would mean his needing to kill his blond friend. However, with the next evolution of his eyes having been unlocked, and a way to ensure that Naruto would live, the Uchiha finally accepted the reality of the situation.

So, like any brother who had watched his sibling suffer so much, Sasuke decided to tell the blond what he had found out about him. Hoping that learning such facts would get Naruto to leave his hell behind, much like Sasuke himself was doing. Especially when Sasuke had several more reason for him leaving than just to gain power and TOO many reasons for why he NEEDED to get Naruto to leave as well.

"Naruto, listen to me. Kakashi will be here shortly, and then he will be able to get you the help you need to live, so I will need to leave or he will have to focus on me. However, before I go, I want to tell you there is much more to my leaving than just to get power to kill Itachi. I won't tell you the other reasons, as you will figure them out should you do as I instruct. First, fifteen floorboards from the side of your bed, there is a blood seal on the floor. I could barely see the signs of the board being altered, but with my eyes, the signs were clearly visible to me. Once you are out of the hospital, open it, as behind it lies something from your parents. I don't know what though, all I know is it is from them. I learned of this when I was in my family library collecting my family jutsu before I left. As in the library was a letter from your parents to mine, asking them to tell you about that floorboard. So, given the facts that I have stated, it's highly likely that the board has a blood seal keyed to your blood. The letter also told me who your parents are, they are Kushina Uzumaki and Minato Namikaze. Of course, when they married, your mother added your father's last name to her own. Pick up a history book, for once in your life, if you wish to know WHO those names belonged to. Secondly, and most importantly, whatever you do, you mustn't trust anyone in that village until you see what is behind that board. I tell you this because I have seen you suffer and can't help but feel the village is hiding things from you as they were me. Hopefully, we will both find better lives after this… my brother," Sasuke said to the blond.

As Sasuke finally admitted what he really thought of Naruto, he felt as though a weight had been lifted from his shoulders as his lips formed a small smile. Which, he allowed the blond boy to see before he quickly left, having waited until the last possible moment he could before he had to leave. Otherwise, his presence would force Kakashi to end up trailing himself instead of getting Naruto to the hospital. Which, was something that the Uchiha wasn't willing to risk after finally admitting his acceptance of Naruto as a brother in all but blood.

A week later

Naruto was currently in a hospital bed, looking more like a mummy than anything else. Yet, in the week that he had been in the hospital, The blond boy hadn't spoken a word since his arrival back to the village. Hell, the Leaf's Number One, Unpredictable Shinobi, Hyperactive Kukenheaded Ninja, and Prankster King from Hell, hadn't even attempted to leave his bed, let alone escape the hospital like he was famous for. That was even despite the best efforts several of his friends, including that of Gaara's, which had shocked everyone that he had even shown up when he was allowed to have visitors.

More surprisingly, was when everyone could hear Gaara actually get a muffled response the blond. Something that the blond refused to give even the likes of Tsunade, even when under the threat of being banned from Ichiraku ramen for life. Though when those close with Naruto had asked Gaara what Naruto had said, Gaara refused to tell them, stating he wouldn't betray the one who had saved him when that same person took a chance to trust him.

This, in turn, made everyone think that the blond was suffering from depression, but that wasn't the case. No, Naruto was borderlining on a murderous rage. After all, he had, initially, only remembered fragments of what Sasuke had said. Which, made him start to question those around him. and there honesty with him, the more that he could recall Sasuke's parting words. Yet, he also had to question Sasuke's words to him. Thus, without any solid answers, Naruto held in his murderous rage, unknowingly causing it to build upon itself, as he waited to see if Sasuke's words held true or not. Either way, Naruto would be unleashing more hell than he had in his entire life, and someone was going to pay the price for that fact.

"Hey there gaki," a familiar voice said from just outside his window. However, Naruto simply remained unfazed as he remained sitting there with his arms crossed and eyes gently shut.

'Wow, I know they said he was acting different but this is insane! What the hell happened?' Jiraiya thought with a serious face and concerned look in his eyes before he smiled, thinking he had a way to get Naruto back to acting more like his old self.

"Look gaki, I am going to be going out of the village for a good while again, and I want you to come with as my appre…"

"No, now leave, I'm done with visitors," Naruto spoke with a flat voice that held no hint as to what he was feeling.

"W...What! You're kidding, right? I mean, come on, the great Jiraiya The Toad Sage is offering you a c…." Jiraiya was once again cut off by Naruto pushing the button to call a nurse that quickly came in.

"Please make him leave, as I no longer wish to have visitors," Naruto asked in a polite tone, but with his voice still have no indication to how he felt.

The nurse simply nodded and walked over and pushed Jiraiya back out of out of the window. With the man no longer obstructing the window, the nurse shut and locked it before she closed the blinds so Naruto wouldn't have to look at the man. As well as to make it so the man couldn't see Naruto. She then left the room and went straight for the closest nurse's station to have them inform the rest of the staff that Naruto no longer wanted visitors. Something that led to the entire medical staff becoming determined to ensure Naruto was left in peace until he said otherwise. Which, was thanks in no small part to them either caring about the blond or knowing he was close with the Hokage, as well as the head of Konoha's medical department. Who just so happened to also be the appreciate/ security of the Hokage.

Not long after the word of Naruto not wanting visitors had been spread, the staff had an argument with a loud Inuzuka boy that had just released, yet was now being told that his Friend was refusing to see allow visitors to see him.

Hokage tower

"I don't get this; when I was training him from the exams he was absolutely ecstatic to get the training I was giving him. Now, I am offering to take him on as my apprentice and take him on a training trip for three years, yet he flat out rejects it before I even have a chance to finish my sentence," Jiraiya said to the blond woman filling sifting through the paperwork on her desk.

"We can't force this, even I don't have the power to force a ninja to become another's apprentice. Truth be told he probably knows he'll spend more time having to deal with your perversion than get any real training. Just like he reported doing when you were training him for the Chūnin Exams," the woman spoke as she took a drink of her tea, as her assistant had hidden all of her sake in an attempt to lessen her hangover from the previous night. Though the blond woman suspected that her assistant had consulted with a certain Prankster king as she couldn't find even ONE bottle like she normally could when her assistant did this.

However, Tsunade was soon distracted from her lack of Sake when she came across the final Medical report that Shizune had given her. Needless to say, she was getting considerably pissed as the damn Uchiha hurt her surrogate son much more than she had initially thought. She the report was making her worried sick, despite having been the one to head the operation and the one to declare him as stable. As she could recall several cases where seemingly stable patients of hers had suddenly had unexpected relapses.

'Where ever that little bastard is, he had better hope Orochimaru is able to prevent him from being brought back anytime soon because I'll turn him into a gory mess that would even impress the Kyuubi. How dare that little shit stain hurt my precious Naru-chan.' Tsunade thought to herself with her heavily suppressed mothering instincts, at least when it came to Naruto, began to slip out from her control with the aid of her maternal fury.

"Besides," Tsunade said, after regained control over her self and turned her mind away from her darker thoughts that just so happened to involve her beating a certain someone to a painful death, Sakura's feelings be damn. "You remember how you acted after Orochimaru first left, it will take time before the old Naruto is back again," the blond kage added before she had a rather unsettled look appear across her face. "Do you think we should tell him about his parents?"

The last of the Senju said with sad eyes, she hated hiding things from Naruto, and she hated it more when they were things she knew the boy longed to know.

"NO, he isn't ready to know yet…. he needs to be more mature first," Jiraiya said as he scrambled for a reason to convince the temperamental woman before him. "Just have faith, once Naruto is ready to know, it will make things that much easier for when he finds out, you'll see, Tsunade, this is for the best" Jiraiya said with a smile as he was mentally applauding his doge on what would could be a very uncomfortable and dangerous conversation given the brats Uzumaki blood. Kami, that boy took too much after his mother's, and mother figure's, temperament.

*Sigh*

"I'm not so sure of that anymore. I just can't help but feel like us keeping this from him will just hurt us in the long run." Tsunade said with worry etched across her face.

*Sigh*

"But, I'll trust you on this, you knew his father well, and still know him better than me. I just pray he will start acting like his father more or I fear he will respond like his mother would've" Tsunade said as a chill ran down Jiraiya's spine at that thought. In fact, it nearly made him concede and tell Tsunade to tell Naruto, nearly that is. "Though I do agree, he is acting increasingly different than normal. So once he is out and back to his daily routine, we'll give him one month to change his mind about going with you. If he hasn't changed his mind… or attitude… by then you have to deal and I'll order him to see Inoichi for some therapy. As much as I hate to say it, the last thing this village needs, is a mentally unstable Jinchūriki, with and Uzumaki grade thirst for retribution," Tsunade said as she did a slight amendment to her plan after rethinking over the facts.

One week later with Naruto after being released

Naruto had just been released from the hospital and was walking home. He normally would have gone and got Ramen after being without it for what he considered to be an unacceptable amount of time. Yet, he had enough of just sitting around questioning those he held close, whether or not what Sasuke had told him proved to be true, and if so, then what was behind that floorboard?

'Damit, I want answers and wanted them… AAAAH FUCK IT! I WANT MY MOTHER FUCKING ANSWERS!' Naruto fumed to himself, as his rage, and frustration over his situation was DANGEROUSLY close to bringing forth the Kyuubi's chakra cloak.

As Naruto left the Hospital building, he saw his friends and their sensei's, who had been waiting for when he came out of the hospital due to him having blocked them seeing him up to that point, were crowding around the front gate. As they had been outside the hospital on the day of his release, from sun up, so that they could ensure they were there to greet him and see if he was ok. Only for him to simply walk right past them, not even bothering to acknowledge them due to his more dominant desire of getting the answers he wanted.

The action had saddened all of them and their sensei's, as they all cared about Naruto. However, the one exception to this was Kiba, as this merely pissed the Inuzuka boy off to the point he was going to put Naruto back in the hospital thanks to the sure level of his frustration.

'First, he bans us from seeing him by saying he doesn't want visitors, and now this! HELL, NO,' Kiba thought as he moved to step towards the blond, determined to beat Naruto back to normal at this point.

Thankfully, before Kiba could move, his sensei, Kurenai, stopped him by resting a hand on his shoulder. Though the wall of sand, as well as getting a glare from Gaara, had significantly help Kurenai's efforts thanks to Kiba normally not caring who got his way when he was pissed. However, the fear Kiba felt from seeing Gaara glare at him, had helped force him to calm to the point that he could register that his sensei was stopping him as well.

"Let him be Kiba, something happened between him and Sasuke that's affecting him. All that we can do is show him we are here from him by continuing our attempts to talk with him," Kurenai said in a soft and caring voice. Though her tone still held a stern edge to it to let Kiba know her advice was also an order.

"You should also accept this change may be permanent. Other shinobi have gone through far less than what Naruto has and broke, never to return to how they once were, so it won't be too hard to think this could be the new Naruto." Kakashi added to Kurenai's advice, in a slightly depressed tone as he couldn't help but feel that this was his fault.

'Naruto, Kushina-sama, Minato-sensei… please forgive me, I have failed you all for too long. With me having been too spineless to stand against those that have made you suffer and tarnished your memory. P… please let me have one last chance to fix things and do as I should have done from the start,' Kakashi thought as he struggled to stay looking unemotional in front of the others. So, he quickly moved to be the first to leave. Yet, he wasn't going where the others thought, well, at least not for the reason they thought. However, Kakashi's movement also triggered the others to start leaving as well.

With Naruto

As the son of Minato and Kushina continued to walk, he was bumped into by a drunk Jōnin.

"H… Hey! Wh… Wh… Where do y… you thin… think yo… you'r… you're going, D… demon, y… you need… need to apologize," the drunk shinobi slurred out as he grabbed Naruto by his arm and spun him around to face him.

"You want a demon?" Naruto questioned with his head down and his bangs overshadowing his eyes. "I'LL SHOW YOU A DEMON!" Naruto bellowed as he snapped his head up to show that his eyes had turned crimson and his pupils became slits.

As Naruto bellowed, a dark crimson chakra exploded from his body like a tower of flames, with them forming a good two-foot circumference around the blond. When the tower of flame-imitating chakra had nearly finished dissipating, Naruto was revealed to be coved in the Kyūbi cloak with one tail. (Picture when Meliodas escapes goddess amber in the anime The Seven Deadly Sins)

No sooner had the exes chakra dissipated, then the Uzumaki teen vanished from sight, only to reappear before the drunk shinobi and quickly run his clawed hand over the mans face, with the chakra cloak causing the claw marks to become far larger than what they would've been.

While the man stumbled back, Naruto instantly gave chase and slammed a foot down on the man's knee. Naruto continued to add pressure to the attack until the man's knee broke and was now bet in reverse.

Immediately following this, Naruto reached forward crushed the man's forearm, that was on the opposite side of his broken knee.

Naruto fished his attack by pulling out a kunai that had a weak explosive tag wrapped around the blade. No sooner did the blond have the Kunai in hand, then he threw it at the man's groin and jumped back as a very small, yet damaging explosion went off.

After Naruto landed, the mand fell to the ground screaming bloody murder.

Turning to the horrified crowd, Naruto glared.

"The hell are you all looking at?" Naruto snapped as the onlookers quickly scattered and Naruto made his way back to his apartment. With him leaving the Kyūbi cloak wrapped around him, causing all the adults and ninja around him to flee from his path.

With Jiraiya and Tsunade

Currently, the last two loyal Sannin were working out how to try and change Naruto's mind about not going with Jiraiya. Because Tsunade did want Naruto to get stronger, and as much as she loathed to admit it, the most suited person to ensure that was Jiraiya.

However, they were suddenly broke from their planning when the sensed a surge of the Kyūbi's chakra. Leading them both to race from the Hokage tower.

When they reached the area that they had sensed the Chakra coming from, they were horrified to find the dying form of a Konohagakure Shinobi. Yet was truly baffled them, was when they failed to sense either the Kyūbi's or Naruto's own chakra signature.

"Anbu," Tsunade called out, with her instantly having her personal guard appear before her. "One of you get this man to the hospital and the other spread out to find Genin Uzumaki Naruto, Scatter


.

Naruto just got to his apartment when he saw Kakashi standing by his door with a rather large scroll. Letting out a sigh, Naruto walked up the stairs to his apartment and decided it would be best to "listen" to his sensei so the hypocritically bastard would leave sooner rather than later. In turn, let himself get the answers he wanted all that much sooner as well.

"Yo Naruto, mind if I come in to talk for a bit," Kakashi asked, as he thought it best to keep his mouth shut about the blond being wrapped in the Kyūbi cloak, only getting a shrug from the boy.

Upon getting such a lifeless answer from the boy who once put the Energizer Bunny to shame, Kakashi felt like someone had just turned his balls to mush. Which, was thanks in no small part to him knowing that a good portion of the blame fell on him for that, and his fragment of hope for another chance to be all but obliterated. With his fear of what was causing his student to actively use the Kyūbi cloak, even if he had hardly done much to be considered the blond's sensei, to go through the roof.

Naruto then opened the door and let Kakashi in after he walked in. Once Naruto and Kakashi were sitting, Kakashi put up the strongest privacy barrier he had knowledge of. The Jōnin then though he should deal with the more pressing matter first before he attempted to plead for another chance as a sensei.

"First, can I ask why you are actively using the Kyūbi cloak, Secondly, why can't I sense your chakra or the Kyūbi cloak," Kakashi hesitantly asked his student.

"People want to treat me like a demon, call me one behind my back and to my face, or "whisper" crap about me behind my back, then they're going to get what they want. I'm done catering to the fears of ignorant masses that would sooner see me dead then take the time to listen to the explanation of the truth. A sentiment that the furball likes, so he's given me free access to one tail of his power with no side effects or limitation. I can use it how I want, and when I want. The only condition is that I don't simply take the shit that people give me with nothing more than a smile on my face," Naruto said with such venom in his voice that it made Kakashi gulp. "As for your second question, all I will say is that it is thanks to two seals that I made. One was made after I learned the Rasengan, and the other was made before I learned Rasengan."

"Ok, was as for why I came here, Naruto, in a way, this is about your parents," Kakashi said as he noticed the boy change from that of pretending to listen to actually listening.

The signs of Naruto's change in attitude weren't easy to see by any means, even with Kakashi having been in Anbu, and hailed as a prodigy in his time, but they were still there.

"First, I want you to know that what I am about to tell you could get me killed, but I don't care anymore as you deserve to know this. However, before I tell you I want you to promise me you will not talk, and will just listen until I am done, ok," Kakashi asked, only getting a nod from the boy.

"Ok, well, there is no easy way to say this, but your mother was Kushina Uzumaki, the princess turned Queen of whirlpool when the last of her direct family died, as Uzushiogakure didn't have a kage given that the ruling family acted like the kage. As for your father, he was Minato Namikaze, the yellow flash of the leaf, the Fourth Hokage and…. my sensei. Now I know I haven't been the best sensei or honored my sensei's memory as I should have, but if you'll let me, I swear to you I will make it up to you Naruto. In fact, in order to prove this to you, I am willing to do this," Kakashi said as he emptied the contents of his scroll into Naruto's fireplace and handed a lighter to Naruto. "Please, burn them. It's only fitting after I have let you suffer so much, and abandon my duty as Sensei's student."

Naruto walked over to his fireplace and was actually shocked to see his fireplace was filled with Kakashi's Ichi Ichi paradise books. Looking over his shoulder to his sensei, with a shocked face, he watched as Kakashi simply nodded and motioned for Naruto to go ahead. Looking back to his fireplace, the weight of what this meant hit Naruto like a mountain being dropped on him. Kakashi was truly sorry for his actions and wanted to make it up to him, Kakashi was actually making an effort to fix his mistakes starting with his self-punishment of letting Naruto burn his most prized possession.

Smiling as a tear ran down his check and he dropped the Kyūbi cloak, Naruto lit the books on fire with a lighter that had been handed to him from Kakashi. Naruto then stood back with his sensei and watched them all burn. Once done, Naruto spoke, calmly, for the first time in two weeks.

"Kakashi-sensei, I need to tell you the full story about what happened during that mission" Naruto said as they both took a seat. Naruto then told his sensei everything that happened during the mission including what Sasuke had said to him.

"So, what do you plan to do if that is all true" Kakashi asked his student.

"To be honest, I would probably leave the village. I have done everything I can to get them to accept me but if my parents really did leave me something. So, given that it seems the select few I had chosen to trust only want to keep me in the dark when I have proven they didn't need to, then I see no reason to trust them or serve this village when they neither trust me nor accept me," Naruto said sadly.

"Then I just have one question, mind if I come with?" Kakashi said with an eye smile that shocked Naruto.

"You, you would do that sensei," Naruto said in his shock.

"Of course, I said I want to make things right with you, kinda hard to do if I'm not with you. Besides, I've had enough of how this ungrateful village treats my little brother. Truth be told, I'd probably go on a slaughter spree when I see them calibrating you leaving," Kakashi said with a chuckle and ended. Though one could hear a slightly hard edge to his voice as some killing intent leaked off of him.

"Then let's go see if we'll be leaving," Naruto said as he got up and lead Kakashi to his room where he bit his thumb and spread the blood across the board Sasuke had said to. There was a small click and then the board was pulled back to show several scrolls. The first of which was a letter from his mother.

Letter

'To my darling little boy:

Naruto, if you're reading this, then I have died. So first, I want you to know I am Kushina Uzumaki, the Princess turned Queen of Uzushiogakure after the disbanding/ destruction of our clan. I'm also known as the crimson death of the leaf. More importantly, though, I am your mother. I know that you're probably shocked, should things have played out like I hoped the wouldn't, but I don't have much time and your father is writing this for me so I am going to have to tell you a few more rather shocking thing. Naruto, you are the jailor of the Nine-Tailed Fox, now that doesn't mean for one second that you are the fox. No, you are MY baby boy, not that damn demon no matter what anyone tells you otherwise. Also, I never wanted you to have this burden as it should have been mine to bear, yet I am too weak to have the furball sealed back into me. So, sadly, this burden will be forced to be pasted to you as only one with Uzumaki blood can even hold the damn demon without dying soon after the sealing. However, I got your father to agree to a few things before I would let him do this. The first was that we both write you a letter, the second was that we specifically have Sarutobi put you in this apartment so you can find them without his knowledge of them, the third was, despite your father's blind faith in this village, that we would leave all of our belongings and money to you with them being hid with these letters.

Now, I only have a little more time left, as your father needs to still write his letter and hid these as well. So time for the last big reveal on my end. Naruto, we of the Uzumaki Clan hold four bloodlines, one of which, has never been awakened by even one clan member. These bloodlines are Lava Release, Boil Release, Adamantine Sealing Chains, and the fabled Rinnegan. I have left the few scrolls I still have on our bloodlines to you. The drawback is, that none of our clan has ever awakened all of them at once. I, myself, was only able to unlock the Adamantine Sealing Chains and have left notes on how to do so. If you want training in the other bloodlines I suggest you go to the hidden mist, as most of our clan ran there as refugees after our home was destroyed. Be forewarned that they might not help If they find you are tied to the leaf, as they did nothing to help us when our home was destroyed despite them being our allies. It was only thanks to us being secretly allied to the Hidden Mist Village that any of our clan survive the attack given that the Hidden Mist faked being part of the attack. Sarutobi even went so far as to forcibly keep me in the village when I was going to against them forbidding me from even leaving the village walls, thanks to my status as a jinchuuriki.

Now, I am afraid this is the end of my letter. However, I want you to know that no matter where you go, or what you do, I will always be proud of you no matter what, and you will always be my beloved baby boy. Oh, should you decide to go to the Hidden Mist, I do ask that you try to find a nice Uzumaki girl, just because they are from the same clan doesn't mean they are related to you. It just means they have the same bloodlimit abilities as you. Also, you better have, like, ten kids because we Uzumaki always had big families, and if I find out you don't I will climb out of my grave and beat you until you're in a body cast. As I will not have my only son not having a big family, you know! Oh, I hope you don't get my verbal tick.

Love always,

your mother, Kushina Uzumaki

Letter end

Naruto was currently in tears, as one of his most sought after questions had been answered. His mother loved him, she didn't see him as a disgrace or a monster, but as her son.

Seeing this, Kakashi was unsure what to do, as he hadn't had much experience comforting people. So, he simply rested a hand on Naruto's shoulder. Thankfully, this seemed to help, much to his relief, as Naruto was able to somewhat settle down. A few minutes later, Naruto was ready for his father's letter.

Letter 2

To my son,

Hey there Naruto, I guess I should tell you I'm your father, Minato Namikaze, the Yellow Flash of Konoha, and the Fourth Hokage. I think your mother just about covered everything. So, I'll tell you this, much like your mother, I never wanted this for you. I wanted you to have a happy life, with a loving family. However, I am the Hokage, and we don't always get what we want. Of course, no matter what you do, or where you go, I will always be proud of you. Just so long as you are following what you feel is right. I have also left you notes on all of my seals, the Rasengan, and the Flying Thunder God jutsu. I know it's not much, in comparison to what your mother is leaving you, but contrary to popular belief, the Namikaze was never a clan, we were only given the title once I became Hokage. As every Hokage has to be from a clan, it's a stupid rule that I was work to abolish but never got the chance. Now, I don't have much time left, so I will leave you with this piece of advice. The saying, happy wife happy life, is true in more than just marriage. Also, be forewarned, should you do as your mother asked and settle down with an Uzumaki girl, then you NEED to know ALL Uzumaki women are the living embodiment of the saying, hell hath no fury like a woman's scorn. So, whatever you do, avoid pissing her off and keep her as happy as possible. Your life can literally depend on it, trust me, as Hokage I know what really happened during the first fight between the First Hokage and Madara. Madara actually only lost because the Kyūbi made the mistake of calling the First Hokage's wife fat. Suffice to say, she beat the living shit out of the Kyūbi for that and then seal it into herself so she could continue to do so for the rest of her life. Then, Madara, stupidity joined in and he called her a monster after seeing the ass-whooping Mito gave the Kyūbi. The poor bastard didn't stand a chance. Also, know when pissed Uzumaki women, they tend to hold a grudge like no other.

*Come on Kushina-chan, you know that's true! I showed you the Scroll that the First Hokage left to forewarn any other Hokage's of the truth. Um, Kushina.. why are you holding your katana... Kushina-chan… I love you…. OH, OW, AH, NO, NOT MY BALLS, NOT MY… NOOOO, NOT MY DICK EITHER! PLEASE, HAVE MERCY!*

Hi again Naru-kun, it's your mother again. Please ignore what your father wrote about Uzumaki women. Uzumaki girls are the closest thing that a man can get to having a relationship with goddesses, isn't that right Minato-kun. Oh, good boy. You always were a hands-on learner when it came to women. Now, Naru-kun, as for what's just before this. I lovingly placed a seal on the letter to temporarily write for Minato-kun when I was forced to punish him for writing such lies about Uzumaki women. But he decided he wanted to squander my considerate gift to him, despite his lies, by yelling and complaining about his punishment. Oh, it looks like your father has one more thing to add before we hide these.

OK Naruto, this part I am writing as the Fourth Hokage, not as your father. Should I not survive this fight with the Kyūbi and the village disregards my last wish of you being seen as a hero, then, provided that you have become a Shinobi, I, the Fourth Hokage, grant that you be allowed to leave the village with no repercussions of any kind. This order also extends to anyone that leaves with you.

OK, that was it, now I have to go. So goodbye and take care, my son.

The Fourth Hokage

Your father, Minato Namikaze

Letter ended

Naruto smiled at this, as did Kakashi. Though Kakashi had a concerned look when he saw Naruto nod his head at what Kushina had added to Minato's letter, almost as if he were reading the words written by the Sage of Six Paths. That concern turned to shock and then fear for Naruto upon his next words

"that settles it, Otō-san's an ungrateful idiot. Maybe I should find a nice Uzumaki girl like Okaa-san wanted me to. I mean, Otō-san obviously doesn't understand women, and it's not like Sakura has ever shown any interest in me." Naruto said as Kakashi was crying anime tears at Naruto's obliviousness, and mentally apologizing to his sensei as he wasn't about to try preventing Naruto from following Kushina's final wishes for her son. As he knew that doing so would result in him having to deal with a vengeful Kushina when he got to heaven, and that was not something he was willing to do for Norato of Minato.

Meanwhile, in heaven

Kushina had been carefully watching over her baby when she heard his comments, leasing her to do a victory dance over her finally had some influence in her baby's life. As well as the fact that it was now guaranteed that she would end up have many grandbabies to spoil when they eventually got to heaven. Though it had better not be for a very, Very, VERY long time or she would have a few deities to correct with the help of her mother and her aunt Mito.

Meanwhile, In the Shinigami's stomach

All four of the previous Hokages shivered as they felt pity for whatever foul had just sealed himself into a fate that they all knew about from experience. As well as all four Hokages praying to any deities that could hear them, besides the Shinigami, that their wives wouldn't find out their thoughts.

Thought Sarutobi felt sorry for whatever poor sap had sealed his fate worse than he had, and he only married a woman that spent time with the wife of the First Hokage. He then followed the examples set by praying the other Hokage's and prayed once more.

Minato, on the other hand, shivered, once more, as he feared his son had just ignored any and all advice that he had left him. He then cursed, as he now wished, more than ever, that he had found some way to stop the Kyūbi without having sacrificed his and his wife's lives.

However, upon Minato cursing, four lights appeared with four women stepping out of them with frying pans in their hands.

"Oh boys," the women said in sickly sweet tones.

"W… why" the first stuttered out with tears at what was to come.

"Oh, you can thank my beloved husband for that," Kushina said with a sickly sweet voice and smile.

Upon hearing this, the other three glared at Minato before they all took off running in an attempt to escape when they knew that they were just prolonging the inevitable.

Back with Naruto

Knowing all he needed to, at this point, Naruto pulled out his mission bag and put both letters into it, along with all of the other scrolls that were also hidden under the floorboard. He then packed all his gear, followed by the things he felt were valuable, and then the things that were irreplaceable to him, before he slung the pack over his shoulder.

"Kakashi-sensei, do you have anything you need to pack," Naruto asked the man in question.

"Nope, I already did that, it's all right here in my scrolls," Kakashi said with an eye smile.

Naruto smiled as he made two clones and nodded to them, with them nodding back, showing that they understood what to do.

"Then come on sensei, we're leaving this village and heading to the Hidden Mist," Naruto said as he walked out of the apartment followed by his sensei.

Leaving wasn't to difficult as all Kakashi had to say as the Hokage was sending them on a secret mission that only they couldn't know about. When that didn't suffice, Kakashi pulled rank on the two chunin gate guards saying they dare question a Jonin, and try stopping a superior officer's mission that was given to him and his student directly from the Hokage.

With that, Kakashi fell back on his anbu training and techniques to keep up with Naruto, who was in an all-out run using chakra to go as fast as possible.

Back with the clones

A knock was heard on Naruto's door. So "Naruto" opened it.

"Hey gaki, I heard you might consider going with me after all," Jiraiya said in a jovial manner, keeping in mind that Tsunade wanted answers for why Naruto had flared the Kyūbi's chakra and beaten the shito out of a drunk Jōnin.

"Ya I am, why don't you come in and sit down so we can talk about it," Naruto said with a smile.

Smiling Jiraiya did so and waited for his pupil to do the same.

"Hey, Pervy Sage, I need to run and grab some groceries so we have something to eat as we talk. You mind staying here while I do that, don't worry I got some company to entertain you as an apology for how I was when you came to the hospital. COME ON OUT NARUKO," Naruto yelled as Jiraiya narrowed his eyes in suspicion but it was all forgotten once a busty blond walked out of Naruto's room in a bikini.

"Oh, so you're the amazing Jiraiya I've heard so much about," the pigtailed blond said as she leaned forward giving Jiraiya a nice view of her generously extremely exposed bust as she spoke in a very seductive tone.

Thus, Jiraiya went flying back via nose bleed with a puddle of blood encircling him as he passed out due to blood loss.

The girl then looked at the clone

"You know what to do, the boss wanted him preoccupied I have that covered, just make sure not to screw up your end," The, "girl", said to the clone as it ran off.

That's it for this chapter, I hope you enjoyed the read, and please remember to leave a review.
