Disaster stuck team Jinchiruki, Captain of the team, Naruto Uzumaki, has been hospitalized. No one knows what happened as of yet, everyone anxiously awaits to see what has happened-
Iruka angrily balled the innocent newspaper and threw it at the wall, he was frustrated. The brunette had been working at his office, secretly watching his adoptive son's game on his hidden TV, he was proud of the blonde's progress. When he saw the accident he froze, staring at the TV screen but not seeing. He couldn't remember a time when he had moved so fast but in 20 minutes he had made it to the hospital where his adoptive son was taken. Now here he was sitting in the lobby a day later waiting for the diagnosis.
"Umino-san?" A tall woman with long brown hair and vivid green eyes came over to the sullen man, "Would you please come with me."
The brunette nodded dumbly nodded and got up, following the nurse through the many confusing halls, passing people walking by and patients in wheelchairs or beds. Finally they turned down a last hall and the dolphin spotted his adoptive son's friend Sasuke. The raven looked horrible, he had bags under his eyes and he had a blank look in those usually lively onyx orbs.
"Sasuke," Iruka walked over to the raven and pat his shoulder, looking at the boy reassuringly before the nurse let them in the room.
There on a bed laid Naruto, his skin had gained more color but not it's healthy gold shine. His eyes were closed, his breath was slow but steady, indicating he was in a deep sleep. The blonde's head was bandages and his arms were in splints. Beside the bed sat a woman on a chair, she had wheat colored hair in two pigtail's, warm bronze eyes, and a very large bust.
"Umino-san, Uchiha-san, I am Tsunade, Naruto's doctor." The blonde woman stood up briefly shaking their hands and then motioned to the two chairs across from her. "Your son is very lucky, his skull has been fractured in many places, and his arms are broken. He should have died with that fall but he is very strong. Right now he is asleep we will not know for how long bu-" She was cut off from a groan from the bed.
Everyone stood up and ran to the bed, Tsunade quickly checked him over and sighed. "He's fine for now, although he shouldn't be able to get up yet, I don't understand this."
"He's always been a fast healer." The dolphin said looking at the dazed blonde smiling. "How are you Naru?"
'W-where am I?" the dazed blonde slurred, his eyes looked misty and had a far away look in them.
"You're at Kyoto Hospital." Tsunade said glancing up from the paper she had been writing on; the faint sound of a pen scratching on paper could be heard.
"Oh." Naruto said blankly, "Then… who am I?"
The scratching sounds abruptly stopped and three sharp intakes of breath could be heard.
"Do you remember anything?" Tsunade asked looking over Naruto once more, pulling out a light and looking in his eyes.
"Um… I don't know, who are you?" He started trying to look at Tsunade.
"I'm your Doctor, Tsunade." The busty blonde said, she knew what was wrong with Naruto. But she dreaded telling the two men beside her. "It seems as though you lost your memory, what's the last thing you remember naru?"
I don't know I can't think it hurts." He said looking at his splinted hands, when he had woke up it was like something was blocking his mind, like a thick black sheet.
"The head injury will most likely do that, you'll have to stay here till your head heals then you can leave, till then just sit back and rest."
The amnesiac nodded and slowly closed his eyes, soon enough his breath evened out and Tsunade sigh loudly. "You understand now what has happened, due to landing on his head a shard of bone must have cut into his brain and he lost his memory. His brain had shut down completely then sort of restarted itself. All his memories and knowledge is gone. He may never remember."
Iruka had tears streaming down his scared face; he couldn't believe this happened to his precious baby. Of all the years of trying to keep him safe, working as a police officer to get rid of his precious cities dangers, of his adoptive son's dangers, and here he was with amnesia and broken bones. 'If only he could have learned the whole truth before he lost it all' He thought to himself.
Sasuke on the other hand wasn't doing much better, inside he was dying. His first crush and best friend didn't remember him, didn't remember all the fun times they had, or the fights they had. It was like missing a part of his soul, and it was killing him. But he wouldn't cry, for Naruto he wouldn't cry, he would be strong. With that he nodded and looked at Minato, "Come on we might as well get some sleep, we can visit him tomorrow."
Iruka dumbly nodded and followed the raven to the condo he shared with Naruto and Sasuke. The raven's family had been killed and his brother went missing when he was 10, Iruka had happily adopted him (legally) after he adopted Naruto and now he lived with them.
Vaguely Iruka thought that he would never be able to tell Naruto the truth about his whole life.

'His memories should awaken soon' the mysterious dark haired man thought, and then he smirked, 'Soon my little Kitsune, soon' Then the man disappeared. Leaving behind a bouquet of (1) black and orange roses on the bedside table.
