Dying is easy. Staying dead is not nearly as easy for Uzumaki Kushina. Who just happened to rise from the dead, a glittering ball of malice because someone thought it was a good idea to lay a hand on her baby. It really, really wasn't.

Uzumaki Naruto, at age five, looked like he'd fallen straight out of heaven. With sunny blond hair, stunning sky blue eyes, and an infectious happy, accepting attitude, you'd think he was the most adorable thing on earth.

And you'd be right.

Because he was, and Uzumaki Kushina way up in actual heaven could attest to this fact and break anyone who disagreed. Her boy was the most beautiful thing on Earth.

And that was one of the reasons she wanted to rip the spleen out of nearly everyone who came near him. Because he wasn't treated as God's gift like he should have been. Nope, he was sneered at, mocked, pushed around, and sometimes even beat.

And Uzumaki Kushina, loving mother she was, dead as she was, was just waiting for her chance to beat the sense into the villagers of Konoha. But she tightly restrained herself, letting the righteous anger, love, and unbridled fury stay tightly controlled inside her body. And it went that way for a long time. Four years in fact.

Until someone tried to kill her Baby.

That was when they let her loose.
