THIS CHAPTER HAS BEEN REVISED.
Story start chapter 1: Divided Into Thirds the Kyuubi's Soul and Chakra
Konoha, also known as the village hidden in the leaf, is said to be the strongest of the 5 great hidden villages. But right now, it is fighting a losing battle against the greatest of the tailed beasts, the Kyuubi. Right now the only thing holding it back is the combined might of the leaf shinobi. But they are losing numbers very fast. The reason it is attacking is because of a man named Madara Uchiha, a man long thought to have been killed by the 1st Hokage's hand, has suddenly reappeared and has summoned the nine tails out of the last Jinchuriki to destroy Konoha. The fourth stands in front of the man, trying to defeat him, while the others hold back the beast.
"Hiraishin no Jutsu!" a young, blond man calls out, after throwing 4 tri pronged kunai at the masked man known as Madara and unleashing a barrage of taijustu and Rasengans at him. Unfortunately, all the attacks phase right through him.
"Ha do you actually think your puny attacks can hurt me? This doesn't even tickle," The man laughs as he punches Minato in the face before flipping backwards to avoid Minatos' kick which was aimed at his chest.
"Crap how is he doing this?"Minato thinks. "Wait, how was he able to hit me while all of my attacks went through him? Maybe it's a bloodline… I will have to let him get close to me to see if this idea will work."
"Okay let's see how you like this!" Minato says as he rushes forward and drops a tri pronged kunai before he starts to fight hand to hand with the man.
"Hmm let's see if this will work," he thinks as he goes in with a low kick, which the man jumps over before throwing a right hook at Minato. He barley blocks it before teleporting behind the man and aims a kick at Madara before smiling. After feeling his kick hit its mark, and before the man twists around and starts to suck Minato in to a vortex, the 4th teleports to the first kunai he threw to get away.
"Crap, maybe that weird vortex is the same as the intangibility. But how do I stop him from using it?" The blonde thinks before getting an idea.
He throws a kunai at the man's head and rushes forward, as does the Uchiha.
"Ha does he actually think that kunai will distract me? The fool." Madara thinks as he lets the kunai go through his head. He reaches out and grabs the 4ths wrist, only for him to disappear.
"Shit," he says aloud.
"Ha I've got you now! Rasengan!" Minato yells out before hitting him in the back. "Summoning contract seal!" the blonde hero says as he hits him in the chest after flipping him around to use the move and seals away the man's contract with the fox.
"No, you bastard, you ruined my plan! Mark my word because I will get you Namikaze! Even if it's the last thing I do!" The masked man yells out before he disappears in a vortex.
"Whew, finally, that was harder than expected. I must be getting rusty. Now, one down, one to go."
"Minato, "An elderly voice calls out.
"Hey old man, how ya been?"
"Oh you know, pretty good. I was wondering if you want to go get some drinks. Just don't mind the giant fox demon 3 miles away," he says with his voice dripping in sarcasm.
"Right, well, I'll hold you to those drinks later ok. Right now we have a demon to deal with, "Minato says as he turns and misses the tick mark appear over the old hokages' head before starting to run towards the massive beast.
"Well, Minato do you have any ideas on how to beat it? Because I have none, since we know we can kill it, so the only thing left is to …" Hiruzen says before he stops as he remembers something, "Minato you're not going to do what I think you're going to do right."
"Well if it's doing the shiki fujin, then you're right," He states with a grim expression on his face.
"Minato, you can't! You have a wife and two kids to think about," The old monkey says, "I'm way past my prime, my wife's dead, my son hates me and I know the seal… so let me do it instead!"(AN: The reason I said old monkey is because sarutobi means monkey jump and he is also a monkey summoner… if you didn't know).
"No, I'm the hokage. I have to do it to protect the village no matter the cost," he states looking at the third.
"So, what you're just going to leave your family behind so you can go and get yourself killed? I won't let you." He states grabbing his staff and getting into a fighting stance in front of the 4th.
"Fine, I won't fight you over this old man, but who are you going to use?"
"I'm sorry Minato, but only your kids and one other were born today and I don't think that just one will be able to hold back the kyuubi's soul and chakra." The 3rd says, stopping.
"So you're going to use both of my kids, eh old man," the blonde says, looking at him.
"No, I'm going to use all three kids."
"What? Why all three? Just use mine and don't drag that other poor kid into this! What about his parents?" Minato practically yells at him.
"Well, the reason is I'm going to seal the chakra into yours and the soul into the boy. You see, his mother was not even from the village, but she came here to give birth. Unfortunately, she died afterwards. She was actually one of the main reasons that the kyuubi was held back before taking a hit for me, her last words were, please take care of my son. His father has abandoned him so please make sure he is safe. His name is Sapphire Orchid. "The 3rd says looking at Minato, "see he has no parents and he will be taken care of in the orphanage and you know that if your kids have the soul they will be shunned so why not use the young boy."
"So he's an orphan… Why are you going to do it to him? Why make him suffer when he has nothing to do with this! As you said, his mother isn't even part of the village, so why do that to him!" He yells out at the sarutobi.
"Minato, please! The worse that will happen is he gets shunned by a few people, but that's all. At least no one will attack him, right?" Sarutobi says.
"Fine, whatever old man. I need to check up on Kushina," Minato says before teleporting to the hospital and goes in.
***Hospital a few seconds later***
"Huh, oh my god Hokage-sama what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be out there fighting?" a nurse says to Minato when she sees him walk in.
"Don't worry, I have a plan. I just need to see my wife please," he says walking to the desk.
"Oh yes right this way, sir," she says as she shows him the way.
"Wait, a young boy was born here today named Sapphire Orchid. Where is he?"
"Um, well he is in the room next to Kushina-sama. Why do you ask, if you don't mind me asking," the woman asks.
"Oh, well, his mother has died fighting the beast and from what the sandaime said, she was the main reason the demon was held back while I was off fighting its summoner. And please don't ask about that. All will be told afterwards." He says when he sees her about to ask about Madara.
"Oh, well, here is her room, sir, she has made very good progress in recovering from the twins' birth and they are very healthy children." She says as she walks away.
"Ok thanks," he says as he walks into the room, "Hey Kushina how are you feeling?"
"Ugh… sweetie is that you?" Kushina asks as she hears him walk in.
"Yeah," Minato says, "it's me. Don't worry, I'm okay."
"Good," she says before holding up the children, "do you want to hold them?"
"Yes I do" he says, taking the children and sitting beside the bed.
"Oh, did you hear? A woman in the other room also gave birth! I wonder how she's doing. Can you check? I want to see how cute her kid looks." She says looking at the 4th.
"Sorry Kushina but I can't."
"What? Why? Is it because you're too lazy to get up?"
"No, it's because the woman died after she left to help stop the Kyuubi… even though she isn't even part of the village, she left her child in there." He says.
"What, oh my god, that's horrible!" She says.
"Yeah, but we-," he starts to say, but is interrupted by ANBU coming into the room.
"Hokage-sama the sandaime says its time." The cat ANBU says.
"What? Damn! Ok, then the third child is in the other room," he says before handing the children to the dog ANBU.
"Wait, Minato what's going on? Why are you giving them the children?"
"Well, Kushina the old monkey is planning to seal the kyuubi into three parts, the yang chakra goes to Naruto, and the yin goes to Mito." Minato says.
"What about the third part?"
"Well, the third part is the soul and it's going into the other boy, who you asked about." He says, looking down.
"What? Why would you do that to them? Minato, you know what happens to us."
"Yes, but they are our children. They won't be messed with," Minato says, looking at his wife.
"Yes but what of the other kid he isn't ours what's going to happen to him?"
"Well he will be put in the orphanage. There's nothing else I can do sweetie, I have to go and help with the sealing I'll see you later," he says before teleporting to the sandaime.
***Sealing area with the sandaime***
When he got there he immediately saw the destruction caused by the beast up close. There were bodies everywhere with claw marks on the ground and in the trees. It was truly a horrifying sight if not for him being in the war he might have gotten sick.
"Hey, old man, are you ready yet?" he says looking over at the old man.
"Yes, bring the children over here ANBU."
"HAI," was the chorus of voices.
"Minato distract it while I get the seal ready," he says as he starts to draw the seal on the sleeping children.
"Got it. Summoning Justu," he yells out as a huge plume of smoke encases the area. When it clears, the surrounding ninja cheer that their hokage is finally here.
"Minato why the hell did you summon me here?" yells an annoyed toad boss.
"Sorry boss but we need to take care of a little problem," he says pointing at the kyuubi.
"The hell, Minato? You want me to fight a biju? You must be crazy! But I guess I can help if you really need it," the toad calls out to Minato before starting to do hand signs.
"Water Style: Water Bullet no Jutsu," he cries out aiming at the kyuubi getting a direct hit to the head.
"RRROOOOAAAARRR" it screams out before spewing flames at the toad, with the boss jumping out of the way just in time.
"Minato, let's do a collaboration justu on this thing."
"You got it."
"Wind Style & Water Style Collaboration: Water Vortex Beam no jutsu," they call out at the same time before sending a beam of compressed wind and water at the kyuubi, knocking it back and making it scream in pain.
"Minato," the sandaime calls, "I'm finished. Get down here"
"Got it, see ya later Bunta."
"Yeah whatever blondie try not to summon me to fight any more demons anytime soon, ok." He calls out before disappearing in a cloud of smoke.
"Okay, is it ready sarutobi?"
"Yes my boy. Stand back while I handle the sealing."
"Got it," he states, "EVERYONE GET BACK!"
"SHIKI FUJIN!"
"RRROOOAAARRR I WILL NOT BE SEALED AGAIN!" the beast exclaimed, "NONONO."
"Minato, please tell Asuma I'm sorry for not being there for him."
"I will old man I hope to see you in the afterlife when I'm as old as you are." Minato states as the body in in front of him slumps to the ground, dead.
Everyone is quiet until the sound of two babies crying split through the night air and then the cheering starts.
"Yes the Kyuubi is dead!"
"We won, thank Kami!"
"Yes praise the hokage for finally killing it!"
"ANBU get the kids to the hospital I need to prepare for an announcement to the village."
"HAI SIR" was the only thing they said they said before grabbing the two crying children and the quiet one.
"Ugh old man this is going to be hard but it needs to be done. "The 4th says to himself.
***2 hours later on top of the Hokage's tower ***
"EVERYONE I AM HERE TO TELL YOU THAT THE 3RD HOKAGE HAS SACRIFICED HIS LIFE TO THE STOP THE KYUUBI," Minato yells out at the people gathered around the tower.
"YES THE KYUUBI IS DEAD LONG LIVE THE 4TH!"
"STOP EVERYONE THE KYUUBI IS NOT DEAD."
"WHAT?" was the collected gasp of the citizens.
"YES, BUT DO NOT WORRY BECAUSE THESE THREE CHILDREN," he says pointing to the three babies, "HOLD THE KYUUBIS' POWER, MY DAUGHTER MITO HOLDS THE YIN CHACKRA MY SON HOLDS THE YANG CHACKRA AND THE ORPHAN BOY SAPPHIRE HOLDS THE SOUL OF THE KYUUBI!"
"KILL THE BOY!"
"YEAH KILL HIM BEFORE THE DEMON HAS A CHANCE TO TAKE OVER!"
"HE'S A MONSTER HE MUST DIE!" were the main responses Minato got.
"What can't they tell that he's not the beast?" Minato thought "I must make sure that the younger generation does not find out about this, or I fear that he will be shunned."
"STOP! EVERYONE, TODAY I AM MAKING A LAW NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO TALK ABOUT THE DEMON IF ASKED YOU MUST SAY THAT IT HAS BEEN KILLED AND IF ANYONE BREAKS THIS LAW THEY WILL BE TAKING TO THE T&I TO FIND OUT WHO THEY TOLD AND WILL THEN BE PUT TO DEATH ALONG WITH THE ONE WHO WAS TOLD!" he yells out in anger at the people "hopefully the people will get over their hatred for the poor boy and let him live a normal life."
"ANBU take the boy to the orphanage any possessions his mother had will be given to him when he becomes a ninja. And make sure he is guarded at all times, got it." He orders.
"HAI" they say before taking the boy and shushin to the orphanage.
What they don't notice is that the boy opens his eyes, which are a deep blue. They suddenly change to blood red eyes with slits, before changing to a yellow with a dark purple outer layer with black slits (AN: if you have trouble think of a lizards eyes with a purple outer layer).
On this day with death all around, two legends of both mortals and immortals was born that will shake the worlds and forever leave a scar on the face of shinobi kind.
