Gray - man stories I am writing this! I am trying to avoid updating certain stories for as long as I can... My note book that has all of my writings is neat, just the way I write sucks... *Sighs* I have to write this before I need to do homework (I AM on Summer Vacation, well, for being home-schooled...)

Chapter 1: Tears.
Normal POV
"I'm coming! Hold on!" Kushina Uzamaki said, as she rushed to the front door.
Another set of knocks.
"I get it!" She said, opening the door to reveal men- no teens, that had grave expressions on their faces. One had Silver Hair and the other had Black hair. (A/N: Kakashi and Obito!)
Kushina had seen these teens around town just before people had to leave to fight in the war.
Where Kushina lived, they were going through a war. Sunagakure was fighting Konahagakure. Being from another place, but raised in Konaha, Kushina loved the town, and was angry that another place that was Konaha's Ally was rebelling against them. Sure Sunagakure was a strong town. But Konaha was stronger.
The silver haired teen asked, "Are you Kushina Uzamaki?"
"Who's asking?" Kushina said, looking at the teens with worry. The two teens stepped back just in case.
"We have a grave message to tell you." The black haired teen said, looking down at his shoes.
Kushina felt something stir in her stomach. She wasn't sure if it was the child she was carrying or something else.
"What?" She asked, with the fear she had hidden.
The black haired one that was looking at his shoes looked up at Kushina. "...I'm so sorry... ...Minato Namikaze was killed in action." He had tears in his eyes.
Kushina's eyes went wide.
"Wh-what?" She said, stuttering.
"I'm so sorry. I really am, if only he didn't have to protect me. Please forgive me." Tears were now flowing down the black haired teens face as he said the horrible words.
"P-please leave." Kushina said, trying to keep her tears in.
"..." The silver haired teen looked at her who was restraining herself. "Obito, we're leaving..."
"Kakashi... Don't be so heartless..." Obito said, rubbing his eyes.
"Obito! She wants to be left alone." Kakashi said with a stern voice.
"Okay..." Obito said, looking at Kushina who was now shaking slightly.
Once the two teens were gone, Kushina closed the door of her apartment that she shared with Minato.
She fell on the floor and let tears fall free from her eyes.
Kushina thought of herself as a strong person most of the time. The current state she was in wasn't something that she would let anyone see. Minato was one of the only people to ever see her like this, but he was no longer here in this world.
'Dead... Dead.. Dead. Minato's dead... That can't be. He can't be dead...' Kushina thought as she cried on the floor. 'We are going to have a child soon, how can he be dead?'
She continued to cry for hours. She got up when she heard knocks on the door. With tears in her eyes she got up to see who it was.
It was already dusk, so she was wondering who would be at the door.
"Hello?" Her voice didn't sound like hers, it sounded hoarse, not the soft voice that she had. 'If my voice sounds that horrible I wonder how I look...' She though, after she heard her voice. her face was tear stained and her hair was messy.
"Kushina..." This was a voice that Kushina knew very well. It was Tsunade. "You look like a mess." She said, inviting herself in.
"You know what happened don't you?" Kushina asked, closing the door behind her.
"...Yes. I was there, well, not there but a distance away." Tsunade said, turning around to see Kushina. "They didn't come get me fast enough so I couldn't save him, I did try though."
"I see." Kushina said, looking down at the floor.
"Kushina, don't blame me."
"I never said I would blame you."
"Good. So, what are you going to do now?" Tsunade asked, as casual as can be.
"I don't know."
"You have to take care of your son, you can't just let him be alone."
"I know. But I don't know what to do."
"Are you really going to say that? You have never been one to be like this Kushina! I know your grieving, but your going to have a son soon, you know that you can't stay in grieving forever!"
Kushina's eyes went wide.
"I never said that I wouldn't take care of him, I have to. But I can't stop thinking about him. And I just found out today. How do you expect me to not stop grieving already."
Tsunade sighed. "Do you want to know what his last words were?"
"His last words?"
"Yes. 'Kushina...' That is what he said, just before he passed away."
Tears came to Kushina's eyes, and they slowly fell down from her eyes.
Tsunade sighed again. "You poor girl, your only 23 and you lost your love, and your pregnant. I know how it feels to lose your love, but to be pregnant on top of that." Tsunade was now hugging the crying Kushina.
"Your not helping much." Kushina said, her face in Tsunade's chest.
"It's okay, just cry. You have things to look forward to in your life. You are going to have a beautiful son any day now."
"I know. But I miss him. I can't believe that he's gone. Please just tell me that this is a dream." Kushina said, crying into Tsunade's chest.
Tsunade didn't respond. She just looked down at Kushina.
After about 40 minutes Kushina gasped.
This got Tsunade's attention.
"What is it Kushina?" Tsunade asked, pulling Kushina away slightly.
Kushina's eyes were wide. They had no tears in them anymore.
"I think my water just broke."
