Chapter 2: The Sealing

A/N Hello Again! This is the second chapter of 'Naruto's Triumph'. I don't really expect any reviews yet because I only updated the 1st chapter 2 minutes ago XD This chapters a lot longer then the 1st one as promised... Enjoy.

[Update] Thank you for one of my reviewers for pointing out a mistake I did. Even if it was a little one it makes a big difference.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. But I do own this Story XD

It was a dark, windy night. On the horizon there were dark, black storm clouds covering the moons bright light. The forest was very silent, it sounded like there were no animals, plants or insects, even the crickets weren't chirping. All you could here were rustling in the leaves. Those rustles were two Sennin and an Anbu black ops member running as fast as they can to get to their destination.

One of the Sennin called Jiraiya asked Kakashi, 'How far away are we from the Kyuubi Kakashi?'

Kakashi responded 'Not to long now Jiraiya, it should be four miles ahead.' As they were jumping through the harsh, cold forest, back at Konoha one single Hokage arrived home.

Minato yelled out 'Kushina, I'm home!' and got no response, this alerted Minato so he rushed into the lounge room. There was only a note on the coffee table saying:

Minato,

I had Kushina taken to the hospital because she is about to give birth.

-Kurenai.

Minato stood there staring at the note in shock for about 2 minutes until he snapped back into reality as he thought, I'm going to be a Father... I'm going to be a Father... Holy crap! I'm going to make a terrible Dad.

Minato never got scared at anything, therefore he never fainted, but this was an exception. Minato passed out and fell to the ground.

Back at the forest Kakashi, Jiraiya and Tsunade arrived at the Nine Tails position.

Tsunade said 'So this is it? It's a lot bigger than I expected'

'Yes Tsunade it is quite big... We need a plan to defeat when it invades Konoha, we should follow it for a while and come up with a plan.' Jiraiya said. 'No doubt that there will be a lot of lives lost, but we need to protect the village.'

As they all jumped though the trees while thinking of a plan, a certain Hokage was waking up.

As Minato woke up, all his memories came flashing back to him, right up until he passed out. Minato then realised that he had to go to the Hospital as quickly as possible, so he got out a 3-pronged kunai and throwing it as far as he could and teleporting until he reached the hospital.

Once Minato arrived at the hospital, he was introduced by a nurse saying 'Lord Hokage! I assume you're here to see your wife Kushina? Right this way.'

Then they started walking to the room number 'N610'. Minato glanced up at the sign and thought, Hey... That's tomorrows date... '6th of the 10th. Little did he know, that was going to be one of the worse dates in Konoha.

Inside Kushina was lying in her private bed, looking like she had just been through hell, breathing in and out heavily.

'I take it you haven't had the baby yet?' Minato asked and only got a hateful response from Kushina saying 'SHUT UP MINATO! OR I SWEAR I'LL JUMP OUT OF THIS BED AND RIP YOUR HEAD OFF!'

After her little outburst the nurse said 'It's on its way, in around 15 minutes you'll have a beautiful baby.' That was followed with a huge crashing noise and a loud roar. Minato suddenly jumped out of his seat and said out loud, 'It's here already... earlier than I expected.'

In the forest the three ninjas were getting closer to Konoha and were getting more worried. They hadn't come up with a plan yet and the Kyuubi was getting more vicious. Kakashi was at the front, being followed by Jiraiya and at the back was Tsunade.

Everyone stopped and all looked down. 'It's over... We failed...' Tsunade said with a very saddened tone. At that moment the Kyuubi let out a giant wave of chakra knocking everyone back and destroying every tree in a two mile radius. Followed by a gigantic roar that nearly made the three ninjas pass out.

Suddenly the beat started sprinting toward Konoha. As much as it pained them, the three ninjas stood up and started sprinting too.

Back at Konoha, Minato told Kushina 'I'm so sorry Hime, but I need to go the village is in a lot of danger'

'I... understand...' Kushina said between deep breaths 'Try... t-to... be back... s-soon...'

After that Minato teleported out of the room and to the Inoichi clans compound. He teleported right in front of Yamanaka Inoichi. 'Yamanaka!' Minato said, 'I fear the time has come sooner than we expected, go and inform every ninja you see, clan heads, gennin, chuunin, Jounin and anbu member. Tell all of the gennin they are to escort all of the Konoha residents into the emergency bunkers. It's going to be a rough night. Also tell everyone to meet up at the south gate.'

'Okay Hokage-sama!' Yamanaka replied

'No need to be formal old friend... it's going to be a long night' Minato replied.

With that they both teleported away getting ready for the nights events.

Time Skip 2 Hours Later...

It was two in the morning, all of the shinobi were lined up at the southern gate. Minato was in his battle suit. It was the green Konoha shinobi vest with a white coat with red flames on the bottom. He had a belt with 25 three pronged kunai attached around his waist.

Minato was up the front facing all of the shinobi of the village hidden in the leaves. Everyone could hear the kyuubi getting closer and closer to the village, in a couple of minutes all of this would be over and either the village gets destroyed, or the Kyuubi dies.

As Minato was about to make a speech, a nurse ran towards him in a hurry.

'Lord Hokage come quickly! It's Kushina!' the nurse yelled. At that moment Minato touched the nurse and they disappeared in a puff of smoke and a swirl of leaves.

Minato Shunshined to the hospital and quickly ran up the steps and into the doors. He didn't know why he was so worried, the nurse didn't even say what happened and he had a gut feeling it was bad.

Once he reached Kushina's room he saw doctor walking out of her room with blood on their hands. Minato walked inside, the suspense of wondering what happened was too much, he took one look at Kushina and broke down crying. The same nurse who got him walked up behind him and said, 'I am so sorry Lord Hokage... Kushina was murdered after she had birth.'

Minato was so heartbroken, the love of his life... dead. He was looking right into her lifeless body, she looked so peaceful. Right at that moment he could hear the Kyuubi had arrived. He just stood there. Two minutes went by, he didn't say anything. Five minutes went by, he still didn't say anything. Ten minutes went by and he finally asked, 'Have you caught the killer?'

He just got silence from the nurse and knew what the answer was. He heard the destruction of the kyuubi. He had to do something, he was so pissed he felt like he could destroy the whole fire nation. All he did was stand on his feet and said in a very determined voice, 'I am going to save this village... please put my son in the room N611, take good care of him and don't let anyone in that room unless it's me.'

Minato leapt outside into the burning village only determined to do one thing... Save the village.

Meanwhile outside the village walls Kakashi, Jiraiya and Tsunade had arrived. They didn't stop to catch their breath. Kakashi went over to the other Jounin, Tsunade went to the hospital to get the supplies for medical care, and Jiraiya spotted Minato and went to report to him about the mission.

Jiraiya ran over to Minato and said, 'Minato! We didn't have enough time to slow the kyuubi down, but we have come up with a last resort plan. I can seal the Kyuubi into a newborn baby, but it will cost my life.'

Minato looked up and said, 'No! If anyone will seal the Kyuubi into a newborn it'll be me! It's my village, my sacrifice!'

'My apologies Hokage-sama' Jiraiya said, 'We should join the battle'

They then charged into the battle dodging the flying bodies, wood, metal and chakra pulses coming from the Kyuubi. The Kyuubi was winning this fight, he was destroying the village, killing people and if that wasn't bad enough, lighting fire to everything he saw. The kyuubi needed to be stopped, and there was only one way to do it.

'Jiraiya, go to the hospital and go to the room N611, there you'll find a newborn baby. Set it up so the Kyuubi can be sealed inside of him.' Minato yelled out while teleporting around the Kyuubi and placing exploding tags on its feet. Jiraiya just nodded and headed to the hospital.

Minato threw a tri-pronged kunai as high as he could and teleported up to it. Then he took a grappling hook out of his belt and threw it behind the Kyuubi's ear. It connected so Minato started climbing up the rope. Once Minato was on top of the Kyuubi, he transferred chakra into his feet to stay on. He then took out a seal and unsealed his family sword. Minato started slashing the Kyuubi. He was doing a good job until it started healing itself. Then it did a chakra burst and Minato went flying.

There was nothing else to do... He started heading towards the hospital. Once he reached the hospital he Shunshined up to N611. Up there he saw a little baby with blonde hair and blue eyes, as blue as the sky. The boy was surrounded with nine candles.

Jiraiya asked 'Minato... Is this your son?'

Jiraiya got a reply, 'Yes Jiraiya, it is my son. Kushina... she got murdered after giving birth... The scum killed her while she was weakened...'

Minato walked up to his son and said, 'Naruto Namikaze... Welcome to the family Naruto, but Daddy has to go away now. You will be known as a hero for what you're about to do'

After he said that he stroked Naruto's hair and walked to the window and said 'Good-bye old sensei... you are Naruto's godfather' Then Minato jumped out of the window to accept death.

Once Minato reached the fox, he simply did a handsign and touched the fox, at that moment the fox stopped dead in its track and Minato and the Kyuubi just disappeared. Everyone was very confused until Jiraiya came out and said, 'He sacrifice himself to seal the Kyuubi into a newborn... the Fourth Hokage is dead...'

Minato awakened inside a sewer to see the Shinigami. 'So... you're the all powerful Shinigami... I suppose you have come to take my life?'

Out of nowhere the fox appeared and said, 'Not today kid, it's your lucky day, you escaped death'

Minato was shocked to hear that and asked 'But why? Am I not worthy enough?'

The Shinigami then talked and said 'No Minato Namikaze, you are worthy enough, but I have purposes for you. You need to seek revenge for your wife. You need to save the world. Teach your child to be the strongest shinobi. If there is no world, there will be no more deaths... I would die. Now leave my sight child, the Kyuubi will merge with you son when he turns eighteen, until then don't let him use the Kyuubi's powers.'

Minato woke up in the hospital room N611 to hear a crying Naruto. Naruto had a seal on his belly. Minato picked Naruto up and hugged him, realising he is the luckiest man in the world.

A/N Well Minato's a lucky guy escaping death like that, I'm not going to give away spoilers like who killed Kushina, It's for you to find out. Don't expect a new chapter for a while, I just received mass effect 3 and it's Uber Awesome! Thanks for reading, bye!
