Prince of Whirlpool
Chapter 1: Good-bye Konoha
"GET BACK HERE MINATO!" yelled Kushina as her husband took their son to have the nine-tails sealed inside of their son, Naruto. She was chained to the wall, unable to move. She cried loudly until a woman wearing an ANBU outfit appeared. "Lady Kushina. Are you alright, what happened?" asked the woman. "Mikoto, I need your help." Kushina said. "Let's get out of here first." Mikoto said. "No. We need to save my son first." Mikoto looked at her long time friend with disbelief. "What do you mean you have to save your child?" she asked, looking confused. "My son was taken from me. And no, I'm not crazy or seeing things." Kushina said, sounding annoyed.
"Alright." Mikoto pulled out a radio and pressed the send button. "Kari! Get your squad and meet with me now!" she yelled into the radio. Suddenly, nine other people appeared. "Listen up. Kari, take Kushina and get her out of here. The rest of you with me." Mikoto and eight of the ANBU disappeared. "What's going on?" asked Kari. "My bastard of a husband is going to use my son as the host of the nine-tails." Kushina replied coldly as she and Kari vanished.
Top of Gamabunta's Head
Minato was about to seal the nine-tails in his son when eight people appeared behind him. Minato turned around in time to see someone's fist hit his face. He landed a few feet away. He looked up and yelled, "What are you doing?" One person, a woman, grabbed Naruto and ran. A pair of Leaf ANBU appeared beside Minato. One of whom is Kakashi. "Kakashi, stop her! She has my son!" yelled Minato. The other Leaf ANBU, Itachi, followed Kakashi. Just then, two more mysterious people appeared, both men. The two new comers knee Kakashi and Itachi in the gut. The woman holding Naruto was getting away.
Knowing he was short on time, in a yellow flash, Minato appeared in front of the woman holding Naruto. He kicked her hard in the gut and grabbed his son. 'I've got to hurry. If I don't seal the nine-tails now, all is lost.' Thought Minato. He quickly summoned the god of death, Shinigami, and just as he was about to seal the demon away, it swung its arm and Gamabunta vanished.
With Kushina and Kari
"Where are they?" asked Kari, sounding worried. "I don't know. I just hope that Mikoto, my son, and the others are alright." Kushina replied. She looked over to Kari. Kari seemed like she wanted to ask her some thing. "You want to ask me some thing, Kari?" asked Kushina. "Well. It's just that…" she paused, took a deep breath, and continued, "Why would your husband use his own son has a vessel when he knows how Junchuuriki are treated?" Kari asked. Kushina's face darkened. "Because he's a bastard, that's why. Only bastard's like him would put their sick ideals ahead of their own kids and make them junchuuriki." She replied, sounding really pissed. Suddenly, Gamabunta vanished. "What the hell!" shouted Kari. "No,no,no. Naruto, Mikoto, please be safe." Whispered Kushina.
With Minato
Minato landed hard. He quickly got up and ran towards the nine-tailed fox. 'What the hell is going on? Who were those people, and why do they want Naruto so badly that they would risk their lives knowing…' that's when it hit him. 'Kushina!' Minato stopped running. Everything fell into place. In her home country and village, Kushina was a princess. Some one sent those people to meet with her to see the baby. But when they saw the nine-tails, they went looking for her and must've found. Then she told them about Naruto and how he was planning on sealing the nine-tails in his son.
Minato was brought out of his thoughts when he heard the nine-tails roaring. He ran quickly to some where safe and started the sealing process. Just as he neared the end and was ready to seal the nine-tails, the woman from before grabbed Naruto and darted off. Minato turned around to give chase when he heared Rin, another one of his students scream, "MINATO-SENSEI! LOOK…" Was all she could get out as one of the demons tails cut him in half at the waist. "SENESI, NOO!" yelled Kakashi. The last thing Minato saw was the three mysterious people run off with his son, most likely heading to where Kushina was, to give her back her son. A single tear fell from his face. Not for failing to protect his village, not the shinobi and the people who were being killed by the nine-tailed fox. 'No,' he thought. It was for his son and wife. 'Kushina, Naruto. Forgive me. I failed you.'
Kakashi and Rin ran towards their fallen sensei. "Hang on!" yelled Rin. "Please don't die on us sensei." Said a crying Kakashi. "Naruto." He said. "Stop talking. Save your energy!" said Rin. "Rin, stop. There's nothing, *cough* you can do." Said Minato in a raspy voice. "Just promise me one thing. The both of you." He said. "Please don't say..." Rin was cut off by Kakashi. "What is it sensei?" he asked. Minato motioned for the two of them to lean in closer. They did. "Promise that you will find Kushina and my son, and tell them I'm sorry." He said. Both of them looked confused. "What do you mean?" asked Kakashi. "I was going to use my son as the host, but those people took him. I think they were from Whirlpool." He said. Rin and Kakashi gasped. Minato continued, "They did the right thing. I didn't realize until now what I was doing. I was about to condemn my son to a life of a junchuuriki."
Both were completely stunned. "You can't blame your self. It's your job as Hokage to protect the village. Sometimes, such sacrifices need to be made." Said Rin. Minato coughed up more blood. "True. But this is my son. My dream was to raise him with Kushina and be a family. But instead, I was going to make his life miserable. Those people probably brought him to Kushina by now. Promise me, the both of you, that you won't hate Kushina for wanting to protect Naruto. Keep an eye on him, and tell Kushina I'm sorry." Minato said. Kakashi and Rin wiped the tears from their faces and said, "We promise." "I swear on my life that I won't hate Kushina for trying to save Naruto." Kakashi added. With little energy he had left, Minato made his last request. "Also, tell Jiraiya the same thing as well. I was like a son to him. He'll be really pissed at what Kushina did. And Tsunade too. Tell them not to be angry with what Kushina did. It was all my fault. I didn't listen to her. Go to the Namikaze library and get the scroll for the 'Flying thunder god justu' and any other important scrolls and hand them off to Kushina." With that, Minato, the Forth Hokage, the last Hokage, of the Hidden Leaf village, died.
Else Where
Kushina, Mikoto, Kari, and the eight Whirlpool ANBU watched Konoha get destroyed by the nine-tailed fox. "Thus dies the Hidden Leaf village." Every one looked at Kushina. "They say that you don't realize what you have until you loose it. I believe that is what Minato is thinking right now." She continued. All felt a little nervous until they saw Kushina crying. "What's wrong Kushina?" asked Mikoto. "It's my fault that this happened. Minato, Kakashi, Rin, everyone… there dead." Kushina said has more tears fell. "Don't be hard on your self. If any of us hadn't done what we did, Naruto would have grown up hated by the villagers." Said Mikoto. Kushina wiped away the tears and said, "I know. But now is not the time to regret what happened. What was done is done.' Kushina said.
She turned around and faced everyone that was present. "People of Whirlpool! Lets go home!" Kushina yelled. With that, the group began to make it's way back to Whirlpool.
