Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto if I did we would of seen a lot more of the day to life of the characters at the start like this, though most of characters weren't conceived back then so I can't really complain.
An Uzumaki Tale
Arc 1: Prologue
Chapter 1: A Day Like Every Other
Authors Note: this my first proper fic or at last one with plot so please be nice I have another fic called Kiss better which I made mostly for practise and I plan to go through it when I improved a bit.
The first few chapters will be slow since there mostly for world building and Hinata and Naruto won't come in until around arc 4 and 5.
Note there will be bashing of characters so don't complain since some deserve it and it was mainly how they acted at the start of the series anyway Sasuke, Kiba, Ino and Sakura.
It was the morning October 10 the sun was out the leaves shades of red and orange as they dance in the wind, Konohagakure was peaceful under the leadership of the Yondaime Hokage the hero of the Third Great Ninja War, The Yellow Flash of the leaf Minato Namikaze.
The citizens Konohagakure were enjoying their life's in the peace brought by the sacrifice of many fine Shinobi in Third Great Ninja War, though it is over, many people are still recovering from the losses they suffered and even though it is peaceful the wheel of fate still spins a new.
In a modest size house for three a woman with fiery red hair is humming as she goes about her day getting ready to leave.
The house is a small two story building with a polished wooden floor, pale walls a table with a lamp in the hallway that leads to the living room. The living room had a single table with a purple settee and two matching purple chairs. A part of the same room was a kitchen with a table that could fit four people and behind it a door leading to the back yard.
There was a door that lead to a bathroom in the hall and stairs that lead to the second floor. The Second floor had three bedrooms a master bedroom to the right of the stairs and one spare to the left, the last bedroom also to the left had a hand carved wooden sign painted with a red haired woman and yellow haired man with their arms open and above them read the letters Naruto's Room.
The room was full of baby toys a crib in the centre with a toy frog in it and a baby mobile above, to the side you could see building blocks with letters on them spelling Naruto and a wardrobe full of baby clothes.
The second floor had a bathroom to the right of the baby room and a study next to the master bedroom. There was also another bathroom in the master bedroom.
This is the house of Minato Namikaze and his loving wife Kushina Uzumaki Namikaze and soon to be son.
Kushina is finally ready to leave as she opens the door and leaves the autumn leafs dance around her their colour matching her hair as it lights up in the sunlight a bright and fiery red like the dawn of a new day as it shimmers and blows in the wind looking like it has a live of its own.
She has pale violet eyes as she puts a hand over them to avoid the glare of the sun as her other hand strokes her enlarged stomach as she seems to glow still looking beautiful. As her hand stokes her stomach, she feels a kick before giving a laugh and giggling.
"Someone excited, isn't that right Naru-Chan, well don't worry, we'll meet you soon, your Tou-san and I are really happy to be parents" She beams to her enlarged stomach and as if responding another kick is felt.
"Well, don't worry today the day you'll finally meet your Kaa-san and Tou-san" she smiles as the kicking stops "But first Breakfast" she says as she makes her way down the street. Happy because today is the day her son is born, as images of a happy future together go through her mind.
On the other side of the village
Konoha Cemetery
A boy about the age of 14 with silver hair and a black mask covering his face was walking down the row, passing the name of fallen shinobi that died over the years. Stopping at one he kneels down and puts flowers on the grave.
"Hi Rin it's been awhile" he told her in a sombrely tone "Todays the day my mission guarding Kushina ended, you know what that means Sensei child's going to be born soon."
"If been guarding her so long it feels a bit weird, stopping all of a sudden. I think that once the baby's born I'm going to stick around a bit."
Taking a pause, he breathes in and continues "Sensei and Kushina decided to call the baby Naruto, it's just like them to name him something related to ramen. I'm sure if you were here you would be all over Kushina Rin, and Obito would have loved to have someone he could relate and play with" He gives his trademark eye smile.
"Now that the war is over and Minato-Sensei is Hokage kids like him won't have to be sent to the battlefield any more, children won't have to grow up so soon and die like you and Obito did."
"Sensei has really been excited about being a father, you wouldn't believe the amount of times I caught him skipping work to see Kushina."
"Sensei wanted me to teach him when he grows up, I can't see myself doing, but I know one thing I'm going to teach him to be like Obito. If I didn't fight with him so much you and him would still be here, so I am going to make sure it won't repeat itself and that Naruto will know the importance of team work." With that he got up before saying "Bye Rin" as he walked away.
After he left a shadow suddenly covered the grave of "Rin Nohara" and the fresh flowers on it disappeared.
On the outskirts of the village a UGB (unidentifiable green blur) was running on his hands "Just you wait Kakashi once I've done a thousand laps on my hand I'm coming for!" was heard as bystanders talked about a giant caterpillar and the mentioned boy with silver hair shivered.
In another part of the Konoha a boy in his early teens about 14-15 with black spiky hair and a stumble of facial hair just barely visible was walking down the street next to a beautiful girl with silky black hair and ruby red eyes, as were the boy was wearing a green vest with a red spiral on the back the girl was wore a black ninja outfit with a white collar and fishnet vest underneath with matching arm bands. Despite her age any man or boy would agree she was beautiful with jet black hair and crimson eyes giving her a foreign but dangerous look. A sentiment shared by her company who has been taking subtle looks at her with a brush on his face, which on occasion the girl returned.
"So Kurenai-Chan how have things been" the boy breaks the comfortably silents as he speaks to the girl next to him.
With a small blush she replies "It's been alright, Otou-san been teaching me more Genjutsu but that's it, I don't think he trusts me very much, whenever he sees me he treats me like a kid" she huffs at the last part.
"I know what you mean my Otou-san the same no matter how well I do he always treats me like a kid that needs protecting, I'm an adult now I can take care of myself now." He told her.
"It must be tough having the Sandaime as a father, Asuma-Kun." Kurenai responded.
"Yeah, it's gotten better since he retired though he's been much more relaxed."
"Well, it's no surprise, he has lived threw not one, but all three of The Great Ninja Wars it's good that we finally have Yondaime-Sama now though." She stated in admiration "I mean he's basically the reason we won the Sandaime Great Ninja War."
Feeling jealous, but unable to deny it, he reluctantly agrees "I know Otōsan says that Yondaime-Sama is even stronger then him and may be on par with the Shodai Hokage"
"Wow, really looks like we're going to have another God of Shinobi then, I knew he was strong, but I didn't think he was on par with the Shodai" Impressed not having seen the Yondaime in action.
"Yeah, I was surprised to when he said it, I always saw Otōsan as the strongest, I never thought anyone could ever surpass him, but it's good for Konoha everyone agrees that with Yondaime at the helm Konoha is heading into a new golden age."
"Yeah… I know it's hard to believe it wasn't really not that long ago we were at war" She says looking around at all the smiling people "But now look it's so peaceful."
Asuma Smiles as well before a he hears her voice again "So… want to get some Dango" a bit surprised about the sudden change in topic Asuma can only reply "…Sure"
"Great you're paying as she runs off" with a smile "…Wait… hey" Asuma gives back as he starts to chase after her.
Arriving at the Dango hut they order behind them there is a purple haired girl two years younger than them eating Dango like there no tomorrow. As she shoves the last one in her face starts to go purple the same as her hair as she grabs her tea and guzzles it, coughing after her near death experience, she grabs the nearest Dango and continues to wage war on Dango kind everywhere.
"What's wrong Anko-Chan you've been eating guzzling Dango since this afternoon at this rate I'm going to run out." The waitress askes in concern.
Her smile drops as she replies in a sad tone "Sensei been upset and acting strange for a while, I think he's upset that he wasn't chosen as the Yondaime, he's been keeping his distance lately"
"Awe poor Anko-Chan but don't worry, all you have to do is be there for him and I am sure he'll cheer up eventually" She smiles at her favourite customer.
"You really think" She smiles her eyes pleading to say yes.
"Of course, how can he not when he has such a caring and cute student like you, " she strokes her hair "Her next ones on the house" She says as she gives her another serving of Dango "But make sure to eat it slow I don't think I'll survive losing my best customer."
"Really thanks you're the best Bāchan" before a wooden try hits her on the head "Watch your manners young lady or no more dango for you"
Anko gives a look of horror and stares at her as if she said the world will end tomorrow "No, not the dango Hanami-San, I can't live without it, please don't" she starts to cry and scream that the sky is falling that the world ending.
Hanami can only shake her head as she says in a tired tone "Sometimes I worry about you child if the world really was about to end because of dango I don' know which side you would pick."
Smiling, she took the now empty dango stick and points it at her with a glint in her eyes as she exclaims "Dango of course NO DANGO NO LIFE!"
Hanami can only cry tears as she goes and tends to the other guests.
The Hokage Tower
The Yondaime Hokage was just finishing off the last of the most powerful foe known to man paperwork while his predecessor talked to him, but the Yondaime could tell that he was really here to gloated at finally having managed to do that which both the Shodai and Nidaime Hokage couldn't do and that was escape the evil clutches of paperwork and enter blissful retirement.
"Today's the day Minato-Kun" The Sandaime Hokage as wearing a grey and modest kimono as he strokes his still barely brown beard.
"Yeah, I'm nervous, I mean it's just unbelievable, every time I saw Kushina I just can't help but think it's all a dream." Minato confessed with a smile, but if you looked closely you could see the concern in his eyes and a single bead of sweat on his brow.
"So do you think I'm ready… I mean I" The all-powerful Yondaime stuttered out.
"Of course, my boy all fathers are like that when they have their first child." The grandfatherly old man told him, his eyes full of kindness as he puts a hand on Minato shoulder.
"Was it like that for you?" Minato asked hoping, to get some insight from his predecessor, at the question the Sandaime eyes harden as he remembers the times long passed.
"No, it was worse, both of my children were born into times of war" he looks at Minato and gives him a gentle smile "But your child's going to live in a time of peace thank to you and I know you will be fine."
"I know and I'm thankful for that, but I just don't know if I'll be a good father, when I was an orphan myself" Minato confessed "I mean what am I supposed to do how do I handle this when I never had parents myself."
"Nonsense, my boy, if you truly want to be a good father just give him everything you never had and I'm sure he'll be fine." The Sandaime told him.
"Your right" he says getting up from his chair "It's time, is everything ready" he asks, looking serious as he walks out the door as the Sandaime.
"Yes, you don't have to worry, the safe house is well guarded and my top Anbu were brought in to act as the guards not only that, but my wife will be there to personally help you through it."
"Thanks, I hope everything goes well without any problems."
"Don't worry my boy by this time tomorrow I expect you to be introducing me to your newborn son." As they walk out the door, smiling at his encouragement Minato continues to the safe house were he'll meet his wife.
"Genma, Raido, Tatami!" Minato calls to his bodyguards and the three men appear before him a 17-year-old with a bandana on his head and senbon in his mouth, a 19-year-old with the standard Konoha Hitai-ate and a black sword on his back, his face also had a scare that came from one side of his to the bridge of his nose. The final one was a much older man in his thirties wearing the Konoha Chunin uniform, a Hitai-ate and had a black beard on his face. This three were Minato personal guard selected from the three of the brightest and strongest shinobi Minato had and fought with.
"You are all dismissed for tonight" Minato told them "But Yondaime-Sama aren't you going somewhere important tonig-" Genma started, but was cut off by Tatami as he put his arm in front of him "If that is your wish Yondaime-Sama" he told his Hokage.
"Yes, it is, don't worry, nothing bad will happen, I just have something private to do." He told his bodyguards happy at the concern they showed for his safety.
They did as he asked despite wanting to protest, Minato looked at the oldest and tallest of the three "Thank you Tatami, how's Iwashi-Kun doing" Minato asked the leader of the Hokage Guard Platoon. Tatami was a veteran in the war, and someone who Minato fought side by side many times during the war, he was assigned as the third bodyguard during the end of the war and stayed on as Minato's.
"My son's doing great, should be graduating soon he keeps saying how he's going to take my spot as your guard, the little rascal in such a rush." He jokes.
"I'm sure he be just as strong and diligent as his father." Minato tells.
"Good bye Sandaime-Sama I'll see you tomorrow"
"I'll be looking forward to it and good luck you're going to need it." He says to Minato with an evil glint in his eyes, which cause Minato to shiver as he stopped and looks back "Um...Ok" Minato gave back scared because that was the same look he gave him on his first day on the job, when he introduced him to the devil's task for the first time. 'Damn you old man, what do you have planned this time' he thought, knowing nothing good comes from that look.
The three guards bow as their leader walks off.
"Why did you stop me, Captain Tatami as Yondaime-Sama personal bodyguards its our duty to guard him at all times" Genma complained to his captain.
"I agree even if the Yondaime-Sama doesn't want us to go, we still have a duty to protect him" Raido agreed.
"True, but if he doesn't want us to go it means that he has something important to do-"
"That's even more of a reason for us to go" Genma snapped.
Tatami could only shake his head "No!" he exclaimed in authority "We are merely his guards, that does not mean we have the right to know everything Yondaime-Sama does. If he has something private to do that he doesn't want us to find out about then we have to let it go" He told them, knowing full well that there are things that only the Hokage is supposed to know about.
"Doesn't he trust us" Genma asked, and though he didn't voice it Raido also thought it.
"He he Now my boys there no need to think like that" came from an aged voice.
"Sandaime-Sama!" The boys exclaimed.
"Minato trust you with his life and if it was anything else he would have brought you along in a heartbeat, but as Hokage and a person in general, there are somethings that have to be kept secret from anyone, but the Hokage because even though he trusts you he can't let information that could harm the village get out." Told the third as her took a puff of his pipe.
"Don't let it get to you Minato is just doing what he thinks is best, trust him like he does you." The old wise man finished exhaling smoke.
Genma and Raido looked down, knowing that was true and were disappointed with themselves for not trusting the Yondaime.
"Yes, you're right" Genma admitted.
"Don't let it get you down, youth-
"Youth!" Was echoed out of now where.
The four men ignored the creepy voice knowing full well who it was and that it better off ignoring what happened, then risk making matters worse by pointing it out "As I was saying is a time for learning and before you know it you will be as old and grey as I am." He laughed earning a shiver from the boys as they imaged their older selves.
At that they all went their separate ways the old Hokage thought "Please let tonight go well for all our sakes."
In a gorgeous garden decorated with flowers of or kinds, blue, red, purple and yellow all the colours of the rainbow could be found them, sat a young woman with midnight blue hair, pale moonlight that glowed with life, the woman was truly beautiful and her face was that of an angle as her blue bangs caressed it in an almost loving embraces. But her most noticeable feature was her eyes of pale lavender with no pupils that sparkled like twin pearls.
The woman's hand came up and stroked her stomach in a loving way as hummed a lullaby she did this you could see the signs that she was pregnant and by the size she was due in a few months.
As she stroked her unborn child she wore a smile of happiness and love that only a mother could have, as her eyes sparkled with dreams of the future with her child.
"There, there Hinata-Chan" she sang "It's almost time just two more months until I hold you in my arms." She continued enlightened at the prospect of being a mother as she gazed her unborn child the flowers around her in peace and serenity as she sang.
To the side there was a man wearing an expensive kimono, white and plain looking that had the emblem of flame with yellow background around it. He had the same pupils as the woman, but his seemed cold, emotionless and were pure white, he stood straight and stern but even he couldn't help a smile that the sight brought, that could melt even his cold exterior, had dark long brown hair and his face was almost like stone, unmoving and rough that would intimidate any man. He admired his wife from afar one more time before he left, his thoughts a mystery to the anyone around him.
On another part of the compound was what appeared to be the same men, but his kimono was much poorer quality than the other man's and he wore bandages wrapped around his head. Unlike the last man's face though his was softer and a smile was planted on his face as he played with baby boy that looked no older than one.
"Hizashi-Kun how's Neji-Kun" came from a woman wearing bandages over her head and a modest kimono for wearing at home, she had pale white eyes and a beautiful silky brown hair that was cut short just above her neck.
The man hearing her lifted the baby into his arms and then over to the woman and hugged her, given her kiss on the cheek as their child got comfortable in between their embrace.
"He's alright darling see" he held up the baby that was quiet and seemed confused at being showed off.
"I can see that" She said tapping Neji's nose "Did you do a good job keeping Tou-san out of trouble, while I was away" she giggled the baby made a gargle as if answering her.
"It was the other way around, I kept him out of trouble" At this statement both, the women and child gave him a blank stare.
But this wasn't any stare, but the dreaded Hyuga stare said to be able to freeze entire arms in their place.
The baby prodigy already had this gaze down to perfection and that along with his wife giving him the same stare broke the men in front of them bending him to their will.
Crying anime tears the shell of a man, was left to the mercy of his wife and year old son.
Siting in a pub were three stooges getting drunk as they enjoyed some of the finest Sake life had to offer. The first man was big and muscular man with a mane of red hair and purple markings on his cheeks, he wore samurai like body armour with the kanji for Food on it. The second was a man with long blond hair in a pony tail that was spiky at the top he had blueish green eyes and wore a standard Chunin vest with a red Haori over the top. The final man had a pineapple shaped head, with twin scars on his face the first one the first leading from the top of his ear to the centre of his forehead the second one from the bottom of his ear to his nose, he had a goatee and sharp eyes that show intelligent despite his laziness, and uncaring demeanour.
These three men were the current Ino-Shika-Cho feared veterans of the war and all new fathers.
Taking a sip from his cup for the troublesome conversation that he was going to have he asked "Troublesome, Man you look exhausted." He said to his blond friend and he wasn't wrong his friend had black bags under his eyes and looked like nothing but skin and bones.
"Yeah, I've never seen you this exhausted before, maybe you should go home and miss Guys night out" Choza the big man said.
"NO! I'm not going back!" he almost shouted in protest look like a crazy person with how his skeleton like face looked about as if the grim reaper was going to take him any minute.
"Wow, calm down man, chill" his lazy friend responded "no one's going to hurt you, now tell us why you look like a dead man" Shikaku almost jumped out of his skin as Inoichi stared at him with ghoul like eyes.
"Ino" was all the man whispered in a tired voice before practically slammed his head on the table as he mumbled like a mad man that she won't stop crying.
Getting where he was coming from Shikaku tries to help his old time friend "Hey, it's not that bad-"he was cut off as Inoichi jumped at him, his Ghoul face wide eyed striking tear into his friend "That's easy for you to say your baby's do nothing but eat and sleep, all day damns you Akimichi and Nara, damn you!" black of his eyes could be made out quite easily and you could see the veins in his eyes pulse from being open way too wide.
He was right both Choza son who was born four months ago and Shikaku son who was only a day older then Inoichi daughter did nothing but sleep and eat, never once crying. The fact they all had their children born the same year to continue the Ino-Shika-Cho tradition was a mere coincidence. Though rumour had that they secretly planned it this way, but they are only rumours as far as anyone knows.
Recovering from his fit Inoichi drops to the floor "She won't let me sleep I haven't had a full night sleep since she was born" he cried in desperation.
"Yeah, you were unlucky, daughters are just to troublesome just wait when she gets older" his friend said "My Shikamaru only sleeps in all day and night not being troublesome at all."
Inoichi looked at him in fury and was about to destroy his friend's mind when a slap on the back stopped him.
"Hey, don't worry about it you can stay at my house tonight so you can get a good night sleep" Choza offered.
Inoichi looked as if Choza as if he was a god among men his saviour that will allow him to get a good night's sleep at last.
"That's a sound plan, I'll join you get to just to get away from the trouble wife for a few hours." Shikaku agreed.
"Yes, you're right!" Inoichi shouted with his vigour restored "let's get away from our troublesome wife's." as he raised his cup for a toast. "Cheers!"
The other stooges followed, bringing their cups and shouted cheers, drink to be able to get away from the wife's.
Unfortunately for them three large killer intents brought them to their knees, as they stared in fear for their lives standing there just so happened to be the loving wife's.
"So we're troublesome are we" Yoshino Shikaku wife growled.
"Now, now, dear it's not like that." All three men whimpered in I fear.
"Oh really, well why don't you explain exactly what you were talking about" Yoshino asked as three whips materialized in their hands as they readied to strike.
All the three of the men crawled away in fear hugging each other hoping it would somehow protect them from the dangers to come.
Ten minutes later, three women came out of the bar dragging three almost dead men by the whips warped around their necks. Just another day between the three hopeless men and three loving wives'.
In one of the many forests around the hidden leaf village was a man wearing an outfit with a high collar that just about covers his face, but you could still make out the stumble of facial hair above his mouth. He has spiky brown hair and wore black sunglasses that hide his eyes from view.
In his arms you could see a bundle and on further inspection a baby boy of a few months old surprisingly already wearing his clans trademark sunglasses, unfortunately it was impossible to tell whether he was awake or not.
The man's name was Shibi Aburame who was currently taking a stroll in the forest observing the different wildlife that lived there. From the bundle in his arms a little bug comes out and crawls on his hand lifting it up to his face the bug gives a "Buzz Buz Buzzz"
"I see" the man stated to any normal person this was seemed like the man was crazy and talking to himself, but Aburame could make out the sound the insect had made and understand its language.
The words the bug said to its father hive was "Buzz-Hive-Buz-needs-Buzzz- Nourishment" to Aburame this translates to that the partner of the insect need to be fed and is in need of food for the Hive to sustain its self.
"I see then let us go then" at that the bug returned to its host, having completed its mission to inform Shibi that the Hive was hungry.
Shibi walked back to the Aburame compound in silence as he conversed to his own hive about how well the bonding process of the new colony went with Shino.
In a clan compound near the outskirts of the leaf dogs and people were strewn over the floor twitching every now and then. The place looked like a war zone the clan members were lying in defeat all hope lost of beating their enemy.
Only two members still standing was the clan matriarch, spiky wild hair red eyeliner and you could make out a red tattoo on each of her cheeks but she was wearing a white mask the obscured the rest. The other was a six-year-old and like her mother, she had brown hair, but hers was flat and tied into a pony tail. She wore a white mask that covered her mouth and nose too.
Both mother and daughter got ready to pounce claws ready, eyes holding the intense desire to avenge their fallen comrades. They charged zigzagging in between each other to confuse the enemy and reach their target.
But sadly the clan matriarch was forced to wait in fear as the attack was launched a white blur object coming towered her inches from her face, time seemed to slow as her current course took her right in the line of fire of the offending object too late to stop or change course hours seemed to pass as the offending object hit her face.
She was thrown to the floor, her body compulsive twitched, and just before she lost consciousness "Hana avenge me! And the clan, don't let our sacrifice be for nought." At the last word her vision blackened and as lost consciousness.
"Okasan I won't forget your sacrifice" Hana thought as she leaped to her target pulling at her weapon to deal the finishing blow, she sprays white powder as she changes Kiba Inuzuka diaper, and saved the clan from certain destruction.
The youngest and newest pup of the clan could only giggle, as his big sister put him down and went to help her mom by removing the used diaper from her face and chuck it out of the window.
Tsume cursed at being defeated by her own son as she and the rest of the clan recovered from battle with their ancient enemy and one of the few things on the planet that could match up to the kage's dreaded paperwork, and the fire daimyo demon cat.
On one of the side streets of the main street of leaf village there was restaurant that was one the best in the leaf and was a frequent visiting spot for shinobi.
The restaurant itself was a just a little building consisting of two floors the first dedicated to the shop and had a kitchen in the back the second was where the family that owned the restaurant lived a man and his daughter.
The outside had a banner with the name of the restaurant "Ichiraku Ramen" this place was known to sell the best ramen in the world a fact that it's number one customer will agree with.
The flaps of the restaurant as a shout of women called "Hey old man ramen on the double!" the women was none other the Kushina Uzumaki the Red Hot Habanero, and woman that would go to war if anyone kept her from her love ramen.
Teuchi the owner came out "Kushina should really eat ramen with the baby about to be born, you were here only a few horse ago" he told her.
"GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!" was his answer as he vibrated the whole store.
"That's exactly why I'm here the baby's hungry and needs ramen fast." She told him with all the passion she could muster.
"Kushina-Oba-san!" came a cry as a brown blur clung itself to her leg "Is he here is here yet!" the blur asked.
"Not yet Ayame-Chan, you're going to have to wait until you can play with Naru-Chan" Kushina chide the five-year-old girl while rubbing her head with her hand.
Ayame was an adorable little girl with black eyes and long brown hair, said girl pouted "Aww, but I want to play with my Otouto" she whined.
"Now, now I'm sure Naru-Chan will love to play with his Nee-chan, but you're going to have to wait a little while longer" as she sat down and Ayame took the seat next her.
"But you always say that" She pouted again.
"That's because it's true, baby take time to grow." Kushina giggled.
"I know and I know, but when is the baby going to come here" Ayame asked excitedly.
"Soon, very soon" Kushina answered while rubbing her stomach.
"Order up" was called as Kushina ramen appeared and Teuchi started on the next few bowels know his favourite customer won't stop at just one.
"I swear Kushina you only got pregnant so you could eat more ramen." Teuchi laughed.
"Not true, though I will miss not being able to eat as much-dattebane." Laughed herself sticking her to as her hand rubbed the back of her head.
"Me and Minato-Kun can't wait we're so nervous and I can't stop worrying about what my baby boy will be like."
"He'll probably be a hyperactive knuckle head that loves ramen, and inherited your verbal tick." Teuchi chimed in.
"I hope he doesn't inherit the verbal tick, though I wouldn't mind the rest and I'm sure you'll love the increased business." Kushina responded to the old ramen chef.
"That I will, that I will." Teuchi didn't hide the fact he liked the idea of having another bottomless pit to feed 'With those two I'll be as rich as the Hokage by the time I retire' he thought as images of the future blond hair boy and Kushina eating together.
"Kushina here you are!" Came from the entrance "I knew you would be here" Biwako the wife of the third stated as she shakes her head "Please try and act like a woman in your position, now come on the perpetration are done."
"Right!" Kushina responded before she guzzled the last of her ramen and walked out with Biwako "Bye old man I'll see you soon"
Kushina and Biwako left the establishment as they walk towards the gates Kushina spotter her long-time friend Mikoto Uchiha, who held a bundle in her arms.
As they past Mikoto offered a bow to Biwako, and Kushina stared in wonder at the beautiful baby in her arms "wow you had a girl" Kushina said as she looked at her friend's child.
"Te Te, no, he's a boy" Mikoto giggled out.
"Aw, what a cutie, hey there little guy, what's your name handsome" Kushina asked the baby.
Responding Mikoto told her it's "Sasuke Uchiha"
Biwako came up and the stern woman now had a smile on her face as she said "Oh, he was named after the father of Sandaime-Sama then was he"
Mikoto answered "Yes, so he will turn out to be a strong and splendid shinobi." At this the baby boy began to cry.
"You're due soon too Kushina you ought to start picking out baby names soon Kushina" She smiled.
"Actually, I already decided, I'm going to call him Naruto he'll be classmates with little Sasuke here." Kushina said as she patted the boys head so he'll stop crying and poked his cheeks lightly "I hope you two get along"
After that Kushina ask Mikoto shaken slightly as her hand covered her face "By the way does it really hurt like they say it does."
A sweat dropped at Kushina question "Wow, so there really is something that scares you, shocking." At that Biwako pulled Kushina back "Come Kushina"
"Yes ma'am"
"The details behind your birthing are supposed to be secret remember until we get to our location you must avoid all contact with anyone even friends" She chided.
"Yes ma'am, sorry" Kushina responded while rubbing her head.
"Also, even though we are outside the village this is supposed to be covert so when your labour pains start don't cry out"
That last sentenced worried Kushina "Yes ma'am"
"I can do that, no problem" Kushina thought worriedly as they left the village.
Omake- The Hokage Guard Platoon
"hello Kushina Uzumaki here to introduce you The Hokage Guard Platoon"
"The Hokage Guard Platoon is a force of Konoha shinobi dedicated to protecting the Hokage, each guard is chosen by the current Hokage and even though their numbers are small the guard has some of the best of the best in it."
"I expect nothing less to be guarding my husband."
"When Minato took over he taught the guard a version of the Hiraishin no Jutsu (Flying Thunder God Jutsu) so they will always be able to get to him, but their version requires all three of them to perform the Jutsu.
"The current members of the guard starting with the youngest are
Genma Shiranui!"
"A handsome 17 old boy, but despite his age he is incredibly skilled. He wears a Konoha bandana with his trademarks having it backwards and has his own personal touch having a senbon in his mouths at all times."
"Genma is a very calm and collected allowing him to lead a squad without difficulty's and achieved Chunin at age 13 and three years later Jonin. In his youth he was on a Genin team with Might Guy and Ebisu, under the leadership of Chōza Akimichi."
"He is proud and casual with his actions, but isn't boisterous and is a reliable man when stuck in difficult situations. He possesses the confidence to lead a large number of ninja though still lacks some of the experience needed, but is predicted to become one of Konoha leading field commanders in the coming years."
"Genma has a tendency to joke around and make wisecracks, his jovial nature is what helps him be such a great leader being able to defuse the tension of his comrades and calm them down when the situation calls for it. But don't let that fool you folks he is a battle hardened veteran who took part in the Third Great Ninja War, and when serious is someone you don't want to mess with."
"And guess what girls his single"
"Now Genma-San, we are all curios about why do you all ways carry a senbon in your mouth"
Smirking Genma gives an answer "Why isn't that obvious it's because it's cool" his teeth sparkle as the light hit it as he smiles.
Everyone in the audience and the Kushina face plant.
"Right moving on" she said with a bead of sweat going down her face.
"Genma abilities are average around with specialty for Ninjutsu and range weapons, of course his, trademark senbon is his specialty.
"He has a range Shurikenjutsu that he uses with his senbon and is said to have made a few of his own original Jutsu. He possesses knowledge of the human body akin to that of a tracking Ninja, which he uses to disable and weaken opponents he faces using his superior speed and trademark weapon. He holds the title of senbon expert of Konoha which earned him the rank Tokubetsu Jonin specialising in range combat."
"In Ninjutsu, he is said to possess fire nature and hold a wide range of range of Jutsu, though unconfirmed it is rumoured he has developed his one unique Shurikenjutsu Ninjutsu hybrid style."
"His favourite food is pumpkin broth with his least favourite food is spinach."
"His Hobby is travelling."
"And He is a man of action with his favourite phrase being "No words, but action"
"The next member is the second youngest at age 18 is-
Raido Namiashi!"
"Raido is a serious man, well known for the burn scars he has across his face, he wears the standard Chunin vest along with the traditional Konoha headband.
"Raido is always calm in the heat of battle and is known to be strict and methodical in his actions, he is the ideal Ninja always serious."
"However, despite his cold demeanour this cold shinobi, actually has a fiancé, could this cold and ruthless man actually have a sweet spot."
"Wait!" Genma comes in "You actually have a fiancé; why didn't you never tell me, is she hot."
Raido just gives him a blank stare "It was irrelevant, and you didn't have a need to know."
"Irrelevant, need to know, what do you mean by that we're teammates now I need to know so I can come to the wedding."
"Who said you were invited to the wedding." Genma froze in shock at this before turning away "Oh well I bet she nothing special." He muttered.
"Well, what do we have here, seems Raido fiancé came for a visit." Kushina announced as she points to the side of the stage.
Coming on stage was a beautiful civilian girl wearing a pink sundress, with long brown hair and blue eyes. She had a perfect figure not quite an hourglass figure but still plenty fit, she was easily a B cup. Her hair seemed to flow and she had an air of innocence as her eyes seemed to sparkle when you look into them.
"Oh kami she's hot" was Genma thought as he stood them like a statue with his mouth wide open.
"Raido-Kun you forgot your lunch." She said in a sweet tone as she skipped to him.
The usual cold and strict man blushes as he apologised "Sorry Aimi-Chan, I guess I forgot this just all came up last minute." She came up and gave him a kiss on the cheek "No worries Raido-Kun I like having a reason to come see you, well I'll be waiting for you at home sweetie."
"And she's sweet" At that last thought Genma fall to the floor and cried.
"Well, it seems that under that cold exterior is loving man after all, Aimi-Chan sure is lucky."
Raido looks at Genma "What's wrong with you."
"How did you ever find someone so perfect." At this question Raido gave a blissful stare as he remembered times long past.
"Well" moving on the announcer told everyone.
"Raido is one of Konoha top assassins, which has earned him the moniker "Black Swordsmen" for his rare black blade Kokutō. The blade itself is poisoned and anyone unlucky enough to survive the first strike is in for a slow and painful death. Raido is a master of Kenjutsu like his namesake and uses a style especially for assassination Assassin Shadow Dance, thanks to this he as earned the rank of Tokubetsu Jonin specialising in assassination and Kenjutsu.
Unfortunately, not much is known on exactly how he fights due to the fact he kills the target with the with the first strike. However, it should be noted that his many jobs have earned him a bounty of 20,000,000 Ryo in the bingo books.
"Now for the final member of the team-
Captain Tatami"
"Captain Tatami is the leader of the Hokage platoon and a Jonin who served as a veteran in the war and given a spot in the platoon in the Sandaime-Sama reign and was requested to stay on by Yondaime.
He is an all-rounder and excellent leader forged from the many battles during the war, his versatility in combat is what earned him the rank of Jonin, and though lacking in the skills of those that specialise in certain fields he makes up for it with the wealth of experience and skills he possesses.
He has fire change in chakra nature which is common in the fire country.
"He is a hard worker and determined fellow who always protects his comrades, he can be both serious and laid back at times but is one of the most reliable shinobi out there. He has earned the respect of almost every shinobi he has fought side by side with."
"He has a vast amount of knowledge on the inner workings of the village and battle, and is quick to share what he's learned with the younger generation."
"He understands the reasonability's required of shinobi and you would be wise to take his advice, because it's almost guaranteed to come in handy someday"
"He is happily married and has a son of 11 years old"
The screen changes to show him and his family.
"Wait!" Genma interrupted again "That means I'm the only in the platoon that doesn't have a girlfriend!" as he started to cry.
"Don't worry Genma, you'll find someone" Genma looks at his Senpai in hope "eventually." Tatami finished not looking too sure that almost crushed Genma.
"It's your own fault you don't have a girlfriend, if you acted more responsible you wouldn't have this problem." Raido added.
"So what I'm supposed to become as stiff as you." Genma glared at him.
"No, but most woman like a man that is committed to a relationship" Kushina stated "That's how I ended up falling for Minato-Kun, he was just so devoted to me even though I didn't know he was."
Tatami added his two cents in "That's true woman like to know that your serious about them in relationship, before things get to serious and you never really shown that much with how you always make a joke about everything, as this rate you'll never get a girlfriend."
Genma turned into a pale ghost of himself as he muttered about how unfair it was not to have a girlfriend.
"Well that's it folks for the special on the Hokage guard will see you next time." Kushina finished
Authors Note
Edited 02/09/16 Changed some of the honorifics around a bit and how I wrote thoughts.
Ok please review I worked really hard on this and tried to show everyone I could think of, but as I said the first view chapters are world building, please be nice, and tell me what you think.
I actually think I improved more in writing since I started writing and reading fanfiction then I did in school, damn it why couldn't I have gotten into this early passing English would have been so much easier.
A rough lay out of my plans for the fic as well as other ideas I had can be found on my profile, they are mostly just so I have an easy to access record of my story ideas.
Also let me know what you think about the Hokage Guard Omake, and if anyone can find a good translation for Raido sword style please do I tried Google translate but the name seemed way to long and looked like one word. Also I couldn't think of a nickname for Genma so anyone got ideas for that and if someone comes up with a name for Raido sword style send it me and I'll see about changing it if it's good.
Also I plan to go into details about characters that didn't get much screen time like Raido and Genma.
For those of you who don't know Iwashi Tatami is the one credited as being a member of the Hokage guard in the anime, but he would have only been 11 during time of the fourth Hokage so I made his father the guard in his place.
Hanami the name of the dango shop owner is named after Hanami dango which is traditionally made during Sakura-viewing season. Hence the name Hanami (Hanami means "flower viewing"; hana meaning "flower", and mi meaning "to see").
Aimi the name of Raido fiancé means ai for "love, affection" and mi meaning "beautiful".
Also can anyone send me a list of how to type all the honorific's and there uses please and how to type them.
I did have a part about Hiashi Personality Poll here, but that was for ages ago so I removed it.
