Disclaimer: I said it last chapter

Okay after this we will skip a head a few months and there will be another skip to a few years later

'Blah' is demon speak

Chapter2: Kumo or Konoha?

The next morning the Raikage awoke bright and early to find Yugito climbing on the wall while Naruto just sat there happily watching.

"Yugito why are you climbing on the wall?" The Raikage asked in shock

"Hi mommy!" The container of the two tailed cat yelled as she jumped around, "Shockers gave me some candy and than the baby woke up."

"Note to self kill Obito later," the Raikage muttered as she picked up Naruto. "Come on Yugito."

"Where we going mommy?"

"We're going to talk to the Hokage; the person in charge of Konoha."

"Is he going to take Naruto back?" the two-year-old container of Neko asked.

"Not if I can help it," The Raikage growled. "Yugito I need you to be on your best behavior while I'm talking to the Hokage."

"Yes mommy."

A few minutes later the Raikage met with the Hokage in her office. "Greetings Hokage," said the Raikage, "It's been a while."

"Yes it has Raikage, but please no need to be so formal, Minako," the Hokage replied using the Raikage's real name.

"As you wish Sarutobi."

"I heard you found a missing infant last night."

"Yes sir, one of the chunins of this village discovered two of your ninjas trying to kill the baby."

"Are you certain?"

"Yes sir, the chunin that told me has been a friend of mine for several years."

"When would be a good time to take the infant back?"

"Sarutobi, I'll be frank, I am not sending him back to Konoha."

"But he is a citizen of Konoha."

"According to a blood test sir I am his aunt and as it is his only remaining family, also sir he would not be hated here and we have two others with a similar condition to him in this village that can relate to him."

"But he belongs in Konoha."

Suddenly there was a hissing sound as Yugito's eyes started glowing an unearthly red and what looked like fangs growing in her mouth, "He stays!" said the container.

"Yugito, what are you doing?"

'I am not Yugito right now,' said a booming voice, 'I am the two tailed cat and heard what you said so I decided to communicate through my host, I apologize for the grandstanding but I had to get your attention somehow.'

"Why do you think that the baby should stay here?" asked the Hokage

'I communicated with Kyuubi and found out everything that had happend and your city's reactions if you send that child back he will most certainly die.'

"Okay I'll make a deal with you." Sarutobi said "If you can send reports on the baby's mental state than I will let him stay here but if it gets bad I will bring him back to Konoha."

"That sounds like a good idea, Neko what do you think?"

'I like it.'said the two tailed demon 'I'll let you guys work out the details.' With that said the changes Yugito had gone under disappeared as her eyes changed back to normal and the two tail went back into it's own place.

"I take it your daughter is a demon container?" the aged Hokage asked.

"Yes, she contains the two tail cat; we also have one other container around which also originated from your village."

"But how there were no other demon containers in Konoha?"

"I'm afraid I have to disagree with that," Minako replied as a knocking was heard, "And that would be him now; come in."

"H-How are you alive?" asked Sarutobi as he stared at Obito after he had walked in the door. "According to the mission reports from Minato's team you were crushed to death?"

"There's an interesting story behind that," Obito said seriously, "I was crushed and was dying when I got this weird feeling next thing I knew there was an explosion and I was blown free I was found by Tsunade of the sanins and she healed my more fatal injuries than dropped me off here and the doctors healed me as best as they could, I found out later on the reason why I lived is because I am also a demon container."

"You are? I did not know this."

"I didn't either I found out while I was comatose and the demon spoke to me. He said his name was Raijuu no Rokubi. Apparently when I was just born someone in the Uchiha clan placed him in me."

"I see, so the clan was secretive about it."

"Apparently so sir. If I may ask a question?"

"Go ahead Obito."

"How is my sister doing?"

"She is doing okay; she just had her second child a few months ago."

"That is good to know."

"Anyway back to the original topic," Minako interrupted, "I will send you reports on the baby's progress."

"Agreed," Sarutobi replied. "By the way what is the baby's name?"

"We named him Naruto Uzumaki; we figured it would be safer if any of the ninjas from the rock village sneak in here."

"Now that's a bit of irony," Sarutobi laughed.

"How so sir?" asked Obito.

"That was what Minato wanted to call him."

"So we are in agreement than?"

"Yes he can stay in Cloud."

"We will make sure nothing happens to the kid," replied Obito in a serious tone. "I owe it to Minato sensei. Sparky agrees with me there."

'Don't call me that!' screamed Raijuu from inside Obito's head which was pretty much ignored.

"Sarutobi answer something for me," Minako said in a serious tone, "Was there anyone in Konoha that didn't see Naruto as the Kyuubi?"

"A few chunins and Jonins and of course Minato's old teammates Hiazashi and Mikoto harbor no ill will towards the child, Mikoto actually wanted to take Naruto in but the Uchiha clan council among others denied the request."

"That is good to know."

"Well now that it is official I'll say, welcome to Kumo Naruto Uzumaki."
