A Song of Wind and Fire
Chapter Text
Hello! Welcome to the rewrite of A Song of Wind and Fire. I will try to make my chapters longer and not rush them. Time to begin the story.
Disclaimers: I wish I did own Naruto but I don't, sadly.
Prologue:
" Ahhhh! It hurts dattebanne !" a voice screamed inside a cave screamed miles from the great and powerful ' village ' of Konohagakure no Sato. It was located in the fire country and was the most powerful of the five great villages. Though village was not the right word as it was more like a city. The voice belonged to one Kushina Uzumaki, princess of Uzu and Konoha's red death. She was an SS RANK shinobi. One of the ten only shinobi to ever attain this rank. One of the other people to attain this rank was her husband Minato Namikaze, who was also the Yondaime Hokage of Konoha. She was also the jinchiruki of the Kyuubi and when a female jinchiruki is giving birth their seal weakens greatly. Right now Kushina was experiencing the most excruciating pain that she had ever felt because she was in labour. This had been going on for five hours so far.
" Kushina, are you okay? " Minato asked. His voice full of concern and worry.
" Yes she is okay. She is strong. A man would have died from this pain but women are strong so carry on strengthening that seal. We cannot let the Kyuubi escape. " Biwako, the Sandaime's wife replied.
Outside the cave the ANBU were on guard watching for any movement. So far there was no one in sight and they hoped it would stay this way. Suddenly a swirling vortex appeared behind one of the ANBU. A man wearing an orange mask with black tiger patters and one eye hole. He appeared from the vortex swirling along with it. When his full body appeared a vortex appeared near the head of the ANBU in front of him. His head was ripped off before he could do anything. The body dropped to the ground alerting the other ANBU to his presence. The nearest ANBU to him was wearing a boar mask. He raised his ninjato and charged the masked man but his attack just phased through him. He was then grabbed at the neck and raised from the ground. The man squeezed his neck but Boar disappeared in a puff.
' Kage Bunshin ' he thought. That jutsu brought back memories of his old life. That mission where he gave his right sharingan to Kakashi. He was crushed under a rock but somehow survived and was found by Madara. He remembered watching Kakashi kill Rin even though he had promised he would protect her. That was when he had awoken his Mangekyo Sharingan and in his rage killed about fifty Kiri ANBU. Oh how much he hated that jutsu. It was a jutsu which reminded him of memories he would rather forget. It was the jutsu which he, his sensei used. It reminded him of when he was Obito Uchiha.
The real Boar tried to sneak up behind this man but found a a sword through his heart. It was a genjutsu. The real masked man was behind him all this time. The man was then attacked by multiple ANBU but their weapons all went through his he attacked one ANBU shunshined behind him but found his head was separated from his body.
" Too slow Cat! " he spoke in a deep tone. He then began a dance of taijutsu with the ANBU moving gracefully through the ANBU massacring them in some of the bloodiest and goriest ways possible. He beheaded some, stabbed some in the hearts and for some he phased inside their chest grabbed their hearts and pulled them out of their bodies. He had no mercy. Soon there was only one left alive. He had lost a few limbs in the fight.
" Monster! You are a fucking monster! Now go to hell! " he screamed and mouthed the word ' BOOM ' but before the explosion could occur the man disappeared into inside a vortex and exploded in a different dimension. The man then disappeared inside a vortex swirling out of existence.
Back inside the cave a crimson haired baby boy was born. He had three whisker birth marks on each cheek. Biwako passed him to Kushina. When Minato tried to hold him she said, " The woman holds the baby first. "
" He looks like you but with my hair. " Kushina remarked.
" That he does Kushina. " he replied. Biwako took him back to check him up. But suddenly Minato and Kushina heard bodies drop and turned to see Biwako and the other medic nins dead on the floor. A masked man was holding Naruto with a kunai to his neck.
" Move away from the jinchiruki Yellow Flash. Or your son will die at a tender age of one minute old. " he spoke in a deep voice.
" Please be calm. " Minato spoke in a soft tone.
" But I am calm. " the man replied. He then threw Naruto into the air and Minato rushed to catch him.
" You live up to your name Yellow Flash but can you stop this? " he asked. Minato realised that there was an explosive tag on Naruto's blanket. Minato, as quick as a flash Hiraishined to a safe house and quickly Hiraishined to another safe house. He quickly removed the piece of wood stuck in his left leg and healed the wound.
Back with Kushina she had been kidnapped by the mysterious masked man and brought to a clearing. The man then proceeded to extract the Kyuubi. Kushina screamed. This pain was a ten fold more intense than the one she experienced when giving birth to Naruto. This proceeded for several minutes until the Kyuubi was almost completely free from Kushina. At this time Minato hiraishined to the Hiraishin seal on Kushina's seal. He was able to escape with her to the safe house but not before the Kyuubi was completely freed from the seal. Minato carried Kushina bride style to the futon where Naruto was sleeping. He placed her next to him and watched as she brought her hand up to Naruto's cheek.
" Back in a flash! " Minato exclaimed while putting his Hokage cloak on and then he hiraishined to his stone face.
Back with the masked man he used his jutsu to teleport into an alley in the village of Konoha. He then performed some hand signs and exclaimed, " Kuchiyose no jutsu: Kyuubi! "
A cloud of smoke covered a good part of the centre of Konoha. From within it growls could be heard. A large shape became visible within the smoke.
" It's the Kyuubi! " a random villager screamed before he was crushed to death under the mighty beast's paw. The Kyuubi delivered a deafening roar and began shooting bijûdama's all around the village, massacring shinobi and villagers, males and females and adults and children. No one was free from the Kyuubi's wrath.
In his home the Sandaime Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, sensed something was wrong. It was the Kyuubi.
' Could the Kyuubi have escaped. ' he thought. When he heard the beast roar he knew he was right. If only he had been wrong. When a shinobi came to tell him of the events he was wearing his battle armour and was already leaving the room. He sprinted to the Kyuubi's location and summoned his long time comrade the Monkey King Emna.
" Sarutobi! Is that the Kyuubi? So something happened during Kushina's pregnancy. " the King of monkeys asked. He then transformed into a staff and increased the staff's length. He then pushed the Kyuubi out of the village.
A few minutes earlier when Minato arrived on his stone face, the Kyuubi noticed and shot a bijûdama at him. Minato raised his kunai and a seal swallowed the bijûdama and teleported it miles away.
" It's the Yondaime! " a shinobi screamed. Suddenly the masked man appeared behind Minato and tried to catch him within the vortex but Minato hiraishined away at the last second. A few moments later the man appeared in a vortex. Minato grabbed multiple tri-pronged kunai and threw them around the clearing. This way he could hiraishin to multiple points around the battlefield. The man had a sharingan in his eye. Minato charged at the man, kunai in hand and tried to attack but his attacks would phase through. But when the man would attack he was physically there. This meant that Minato had to attack him when he was materialising to attack him. Minato threw a kunai which missed the man and ran towards him, with a larger than usual rasengan in hand. When he was close enough he quickly hiraishined to the kunai above the masked man and hit him him in the back with the rasengan which had a seal hidden in it.
" Flying Raijin Level 2 " Minato exclaimed. Due to the seal on his back, the man was no longer able to phase. Minato then slammed him in the stomach with a five point seal.
" Now you no longer have control over the Kyuubi, " he spoke.
Back with the Sandaime, the sharingan in the Kyuubi's eyes disappeared. The Kyuubi was set free. In his rage the Kyuubi continued to destroy the village but Sarutobi used his long staff to push the Kyuubi out of the village.
Back with Minato he had hiraishined back to Kushina and Naruto.
" Kushina. I have no choice but to seal the Kyuubi into Naruto. " he explained to Kushina.
" No. Do you know what life jinchiruki live? It is horrible. " she spoke trying to dispersuade him.
" We have no choice. If I seal it into you it will just escape again. Besides Naruto is strong and he will need it's power to defeat that man in the future. " he explained once more.
" Fine then. If you have no other choice." She finally agreed.
Minato hiraishined to the Kyuubi and performed some hand signs.
" Kuchiyose no Jutsu: Wheelbarrow " he exclaimed. The toad boss Gamabunta appeared and dropped on top of the Kyuubi, squashing him and preventing any movement. After Gamabunta puffed away, Kushina used her Adamantine Chakra Chains to trap the Kyuubi.
Minato performed hand signs.
" Shiki Fuijin! " he exclaimed.
Behind him appeared a giant humanoid. It was wearing a white garment and had a dagger in it's mouth. It's nails were long and black. It was the Shinigami, God of Death.
" Mortal. Why have you called me to this realm? " he asked.
" I wish to seal half of the Kyuubi into myself and the other half into my son. " Minato answered.
" As you wish mortal, but the price is death. " the Shinigami explained. He hen reached his hand through Minato's body and grabbed half of the Kyuubi. He pulled it through into Minato's body and a seal appeared, " Mortal. I give you 15 minutes due to the nobleness of your act ".
Suddenly the Kyuubi which had shrunk to half it's original size. It was temporarily free from Kushina's Chakra Chains and tried to kill Naruto with it's claw but Minato and Kushina jumped in front of the claw.
" Naruto. I have but only one regret and that is that I can not see you grow up. I have some advice for you. First of all have good friends. Not a lot but a few will do. And eat lots of fruits and vegetables. If you're anything like me you will love ramen but don't eat too much. Once a week is fine. As for girls I want you to find a girl like me. Not one with a temper but one who will risk her life to save you. And get a lot of sleep when you can and have baths whenever you can. I'm sorry Minato for shortening your time with Naruto. " She said ." It's alright Kushina. Well Naruto your mother has said it all but I'm sorry for not being able to see you grow up, become a shinobi or go on your first date. " Minato said and completed the sealing.
When the Sandaime arrived he found Kushina dead and Minato dying.
" Hiruzen. I want you to look after Naruto. I hope not but if the village does not accept him as a hero then you will have to care for him and show him love. I know that Jiraiya will be too busy to look after him all the time so it is up to you. " These were the last words that Minato spoke to Hiruzen Sarutobi in the last moments of his life.
