Five Days Later
Nami no Kuni
"A-rgh," Naruto groaned weakly. His eyes fluttering open before immediately closing as the bright light coming into the room nearly blinded him.
'Where am I?' Naruto thought as he slowly opened his eyes again. Allowing them to first adjust gradually to the light before he took in the surroundings of the unfamiliar room he was in.
"He-l-," Naruto tried to call out but only managed a croak as his dry throat burned in protest.
"Tousan it's been five days maybe we should take him to Kaoko-san."
"He has no injuries on him Tsunami, and we don't have the money to waste paying that old hag so she can put her 'healing herbs' on him."
Naruto heard two unfamiliar voices argue from outside the room door causing his eyes to narrow as his shinobi instincts kicked in.
'I need to use Sage Mode,' Naruto thought as he got up to prepare to face the potential enemies outside the door and to get an idea of where he was with his Sage Mode sensory ability.
"Tousan he's been unconscious for five days. It doesn't matter i-" Tsunami argued back as she stood outside the door of the room her and her Tousan had put the unknown man in before stopping mid sentence as heard something from inside the room causing her to share a look with Tazuna.
"He's awake," Tazuna stated before he and Tsunami cautiously made their way into the room.
"Ahh" Naruto grunted out in pain as he fell over face first onto the floor with a loud thud. His legs having given out from under him causing the Asura man to curse as he wondered why his body felt so weak.
'What's wrong with me!?' Naruto thought in alarm shakingly getting back up onto his feet before he grabbed the bed post to better steady himself.
'There,' Naruto thought as he stopped wobbling before tapping into his Asura bloodline so he could enter Sage Mode.
'That's strange,' Naruto thought frowning in concern as he felt no familiar heightened awareness that always came when he entered Sage Mode.
'Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Shadow Clone Jutsu)!' Naruto thought trying to create a single bunshin after he failed to enter Sage Mode.
'No clone,' Naruto thought further frowning as he grew increasing alarmed after he noticed no bunshin popping into existence next to him.
Raising his right hand with a deep frown on his face Naruto tried moulding his chakra so he could create a familiar glowing blue orb of swirling chakra but failed to as no Rasengan appeared.
'I can't access my chakra!' Naruto concluded in alarm as he failed to create a Rasengan a second time. Panic filling his being as he realised now why his body felt so weak, why he couldn't enter Sage Mode or make a single clone or a Rasengan because he couldn't access his chakra.
"You're awake," Naruto heard from right of him. Causing him to break out of the panic of his discovery as he turned his head to a man and a young woman that were both staring at him.
"What's your name?" Tazuna asked as he stared at the now awake stranger before him, needing to know if he was a threat.
"N-Naruto," Naruto croaked as he stood on guard. Trying to buy himself sometime as he tried tapping into his reserves. Not wanting to rely on only his taijutsu if either the man, woman or other unknown enemy who maybe waiting outside the room attacked him, since he suspected they had something to do with the cutting off the access to his chakra.
"I'm Tazuna and this is my daughter Tsunami." Tazuna introduced gesturing at his daughter, who stood slightly red faced as her eyes fell onto the handsome stranger's naked torso, remembering the state she had found him in. "Where are you from Naruto?" Tazuna asked trying to pry out more information about the stranger without making him grow suspicious.
"I'm fro-AAAAAH!" Naruto began answering but stopped as a sudden hot excruciating pain exploded in his mind. Causing him to scream out in agony as his gripped his throbbing skulls.
"NARUTO-SAN!" Tsunami yelled in worry as she moved to help the screaming man, who collapsed thrashing onto the floor before her eyes, gripping his head in obvious pain.
"Tsunami don't!" Tazuna warned over Naruto's screams, grabbing his daughter to stop her from helping the screaming man on the floor.
"Tousan we have to help him!" Tsunami argued trying to work her way out of her father's tight grip so she could help Naruto.
"Tsunami look!" Tazuna yelled. gesturing at the man's chest.
"Wha-" Tsunami began to ask but stopped as she saw what her father was pointing to. There in the centre of the man's chest was a glowing strange small tattoo like symbol that was growing larger and larger each second. Covering more of the man's chest and torso as it did.
"Don't touch him!" Tazuna warned his daughter not wanting her to touch the man since he suspected the strange glowing symbol that kept growing had something to do with the agony he was in.
"We have to help him Tousan," Tsunami said not caring about her father's warning as she worked her way out his firm grip before running to the screaming man.
"NARUTO-SAN!" Tsunami yelled to the man trying to gain his attention as she knelt beside his thrashing form. Not knowing what else to do as she looked down at him, calling his name over and over.
"Naruto-san!" Tsunami called out again for the umpteenth time as she watched the large symbol, that had covered most of his body, vanish before the man's screams and thrashing halted leaving the room in absolute silence as the father daughter duo closely watched the man who laying panting on the floor.
"Kushina," Tsunami barely heard Naruto faintly croak as his eyes opened to find hers before he raised a shaky hand towards her. Cupping her cheek gently as he smiled up at her lovingly. Causing Tsunami to blush as she looked into the man's violet eyes. Enjoying the feeling of the rough hand she leaned into against her soft skin.
"Naruto-san!" Tsunami called out in alarm, her blush fading as she watched the man's eyes suddenly roll backwards into his skull before his body went limp as he passed out.
"Naruto-san!" Tsunami called out again in worry as she tried shaking him awake, wondering what had just happened and who this 'Kushina' he had mistaken her for was.

That Evening
Six Hours Later
"Tousan he's waking up," Tsunami told her father as she saw Naruto begin to stir. It had been close to six hours since he fell unconscious and Tsunami had been waiting in the room concerned, wondering what had happened to cause him to thrash in pain the way he had.
"Ahh," Tsunami and Tazuna heard Naruto groan as his eyes slowly fluttered open. Before they gazed around the room, stopping as they settled on Tsunami, who blushed as she turned away from his intense unwavering gaze.
"Wh-" Naruto began to croak causing Tsunami to turn back to him as she heard him try to speak but fail because of an obviously dry throat.
"H-here Naruto-san drink this," Tsunami said, nervously making her way forward towards the glass of water she set at his bedside. So she could help him drink.
"Thank you." Tsunami heard Naruto say as she lowered the now empty glass whose contents he had just gulped down.
"You are welcome Naruto-san." Tsunami said setting down the empty glass before moving to stand back next to her father.
"Who are you? Where am I?" Tazuna heard Naruto ask causing the older man to scoff.
"Do you suffer from short term memory or something Naruto? Is that why you ended up naked on my porch because you couldn't find your way home?" Tazuna asked bluntly not wanting to reintroduce himself to this stranger who seemed to have already forgotten him.
"Tousan!" A blushing Tsunami chided her father, shooting him a disapproving look for his bluntness. "I'm Tsunami and this my father Tazuna, you are in my our house Naruto-san in Nami no Kuni." Tsunami replied answering Naruto's question as she turned to him.
"Nami no Kuni?" Naruto repeated confused as he look up at Tsunami.
"Hai Wave Country," Tsunami repeated earning a frown from Naruto.
"Where are you from Naruto-san?" Tsunami questioned having noticed his clear confusion which told her he wasn't from these parts like her and Tazuna had suspected.
"I-I don-t know," Naruto answered lowly as he tried remembering where he was from but drawing a blank as something repeatedly blocked him from remembering. "I don't know. I can't remember."

Konoha
Namikaze Residence
"M-ina-koi," Mebuki moaned in pleasure as she rocked her hips to meet her husband's passionate thrusts. Digging her nails deeper into him as each thrust brought her closer and closer to her release.
"Harder Mina-kun," Mebuki pleaded needingly causing Minato to thrust harder and faster into her as the volume of Mebuki's moans rose telling him she was nearing her imminent release.
"MINATO!" Mebuki suddenly cried out, her toes curling as she found her earth-shattering release. Promoting Minato to thrust faster into her as he sought his own euphoria.
"Mebuki," Minato grunted as his body stiffened before rope after rope of his hot seed shot into the squirming Mebuki whose tight walls convulsed around his throbbing thickness milking him as he collapsed panting atop her sweaty form
"I love you," Mebuki breathlessly informed, coming down from her high as she unravelled her slender legs from around Minato's waist before kissing him passionately as she gripped a fistful of his blonde locks, bringing his lips to hers.
"I love you too." Minato whispered as he pulled his lips back from Mebuki before moving next to her. Causing the blonde woman to sigh in contentment as Minato moved to cuddle with her.
"I love you Mina-kun," Mebuki repeated as she snuggled into her husband before falling asleep smiling.
'Pathetic,' a full clothedMinato thought disgusted as he stood beside the bed that lay a naked Mebuki. Having watched his genjutsu work that he knew was now thankfully over since the sleeping blonde woman had stopped with her nauseating moans.
He never ever touched her the way Mebuki always thought he did. It would be a betrayal to Kushina which he couldn't do. The one time he had nine months ago was in a moment of utter weakness that had left him unsatisfied, dirty and guilt ridden. Despite him having imagining it was Kushina the entire time he touched Mebuki.
"Minato," Mebuki muttered smiling in her sleep telling Minato she was dreaming of him. Shifting the blonde man's thoughts as he wondered if he should place the loyalty seal he had on Mebuki on Kushina so she could dream of him the way the blonde woman did and love him blindly the way the blonde woman also did.
'No,' Minato told himself pushing away those thoughts immediately from his head. He would win Kushina's heart with the plan he had set up and not with the use of seals. He could not take away her free will and force her to love him blindly like he had Mebuki he cared too much for Kushina to do that.
"WAAAAA!" Minato heard a loud cry come from the adjacent room, breaking him from his thoughts as he heard the result of his weakness the one time he actually had sex with Mebuki cry. Frowning Minato moved away from the bed and made his way out of the room before arriving in the nursery he had helped set up.
Looking down into the wooden crib Minato uncaringly watched the tiny shrieking blonde boy his wife had named Menma. Not bothering to see what was wrong as he stood there watching since he didn't love Menma because he had been born from a woman that wasn't Kushina.
"Minato," The blonde heard from behind him turning his attention to a robe wearing Mebuki. "What's wrong with Menma-chan?" Mebuki asked as she moved towards their baby.
"I don't know," Minato replied forcing a panicked tone in his voice. 'And I don't care.' The blonde man added as he watched Mebuki lift Menma to see what was wrong.
"Did you check his diaper?" Mebuki asked sniffing their son.
"The diaper? I forgot about that," Minato lied sheepishly.
"That's the first thing you check Minato you not supposed to forget about that." Mebuki chided glaring slightly at her husband.
"I'm sorry Mebuki-chan it won't happen again," Minato promised still looking embarrassed earning a sigh from Mebuki who couldn't stay mad at him with that cute embarrassed look of his.
"It's fine Mina-koi I'll change Menma-chan just don't forgot to check the diaper next time," Mebuki told Minato quickly kissing the sheepish looking man before moving to change the baby.
Dropping his facade Minato glared darkly at the woman he couldn't believe he had just apologised to. He would get rid of her and the baby she was changing once he won over Kushina. But first he had to get rid of Mikoto who had been a constant obstacle between him and Kushina. Staying by her side up until now even, a week after the Kyuubi attack, and that was ruining his plans.
'I will get rid of you Mikoto Uchiha one way or another.' Minato promised darkly before pushing aside his thoughts as he heard his wife say something.
"Mina-kun can you help me with this?" Mebuki asked wanting her husband's help even though she could do it herself.
"Sure Mebuki-chan what do you need?" Minato asked as he moved to the changing table.
"Can you throw this away from me?" Mebuki requested gesturing at the dirty diaper she held out for Minato.
"What?" Minato asked lowly with balled fists.
"Can you throw this away for me Mina-koi," Mebuki requested again with a pouting puppy eyed look that disgusted Minato instead of pulling at the strings of his heart like Mebuki intended.
"Sure Mebuki-chan anything for." Minato said forcefully, kissing Mebuki's cheek before taking the dirty diaper.
"Thanks Mina-koi," Mebuki said smiling as she turned back to the baby not noticing the menacing look Minato sent her way as he threw away the dirty diaper. Thinking of how he couldn't wait to get rid of his wife and her baby just as he had the damned Asura.

Nami no Kuni
"We don't know anything about him besides his obvious hobby of passing out naked on people's doorsteps Tsunami."
"Because he doesn't remember Tousan," Tsunami argued back with a blush standing outside of Naruto's room.
"How can he not remember."
"I don't know Tousan but you saw what happened to him early may-"
"No Tsunami," Tazuna said cutting off his daughter as he brushed off her argument. "Unless he can tell us more about himself than just his name, Naruto has to leave the house immediately. I don't care if it's the middle of the night Tsunami I'm not letting a man we found naked stay in this house with you, if he can only tell us his name." Tazuna said in a rare moment of responsibility as he refused to let the unknown man who suspiciously didn't know more than his name sleep in the same house as his daughter Tsunami.
"Tousan pleas-" Tsunami began to plead not wanting her father to kick out the man who had just woken up from a five day coma even if her father was just being protective of her.
"No Tsunami my decision is final," Tazuna said interrupting his daughter's pleas. "He needs to leave immediately." Tazuna said in a final nonsense tone that left no room for arguing before he walked away. Leaving behind Tsunami who sighed before turning back to the room.
"He wants me to go?" Naruto stated/asked lowly having heard the entire argument between Tazuna and Tsunami.
"Yes unless you can remember something Naruto-san."
"I can't," Naruto told Tsunami frustrated as he gripped his head trying to remember. "I can't remember anything," Naruto repeated for the umpteenth time that evening causing Tsunami to frown sadly as she heard the blatant turmoil in his voice.
"Naruto-san earlier today you mentioned a name I think you might remember." Tsunami began with a mild blush, remembering what happened earlier with Naruto before he passed out.
"What was the name?" Naruto asked his full attention on Tsunami as he waited to hear the name that might trigger some memories.
"Kushina."
"Kushina," Naruto repeated as he stared at Tsunami, waiting to remember. "Kushina," Naruto repeated again as he waited for his mind to fill with memories. "Kushina," Naruto repeated a third time waiting but nothing. Nothing came. No memories no familiar feeling just nothing. The name had absolutely no affect on him or his memories.
"I don't remember," Naruto whispered lowly, his shoulders sagging as the last of his hope of remembering vanished.
"I'm sure they will come Naruto-san," Tsunami encouraged softly smiling sympathetically at the downtrodden man.
"Hai," Naruto said forcing a smile as he looked at the woman who had been so kind to him. "But not tonight." Naruto added his forced smile vanishing as he remembered what Tazuna had said.
"Do you have anywhere to go Naruto-san?" Tsunami worryingly asked before slapping herself as she thought over what she had just asked.
"No," Naruto said his lips twitching slightly at Tsunami's embarrassed expression. "I have no memories remember."
"I'm sorry Naruto-san," Tsunami apologised. "I forgo-" Tsunami continued but stopped as she realised what she was about to say.
"You forgot," Naruto finished having caught on to what Tsunami was about to say.
"Hai I'm sorry Naruto-san," Tsunami apologised feeling further embarrassed about not being sensitive to the man's condition.
"It's fine," Naruto waved off with a chuckle, temporarily forgetting his memory loss problems as he looked at Tsunami's embarrassed expression.
"Naruto-san," Naruto heard Tsunami say as his chuckles died down. "Here." Tsunami offered turning Naruto's attention to her hand.
"M-money?" Naruto stated confused as he recognised what Tsunami was holding out to him, not sure why she was doing it.
"Hai to help you get a room for tonight," Tsunami explained holding out the money she always kept on her persons for emergencies.
"I can't," Naruto said refusing the kind gesture, knowing the kind woman had already done too much for him.
"Please Naruto-san you have nowhere to go and it's night time. Take the money so you can at least find a room." Tsunami pleaded knowing the man needed the money since he had none of his own.
"Thank-you Tsunami," Naruto said gratefully accepting the money before standing to leave as he remembered Tazuna's order to leave his house immediately.
"You need a shirt." Tsunami stated lowly with a mild blush looking at Naruto who was only dressed in a pair of her father's oversized pants.
"What?"
"A shirt you need a shirt," Tsunami repeated. Briefly meeting Naruto's gaze before turning away. "Please wait here Naruto-san," Tsunami requested before hurrying out the room as she made her way to get him one of her father's shirts.
Sitting down on the bed as he waited for Tsunami to return, Naruto wondered what he was going to do? Where he was going to go? He was a man with no memory besides his name and had no idea what he would find out there once he left this house.
'Maybe I'll ask T-'
"AHHHHHHHH!"
"Tsunami," Naruto whisper his thoughts of the said woman interrupted as he heard her screams. "Tsunami!" Naruto yelled as he bolted out the room before heading towards the direction of the screams as he ran through the unfamiliar house.
"Tsunami!" Naruto yelled again barging into another room in search of Tsunami before stopping as he saw something that made his blood boil.
"Naruto," Tsunami barely managed between her sobs. Relief filling her as she noticed the violet eyed man.
"Whoever you are let her go!" Naruto yelled glaring dangerously at the orange masked man who stood over an unconscious Tazuna with a loose arm around Tsunami's throat.
"I thought you would have learnt to not say those words to me from our previous encounter Naruto." The orange masked man said chuckling causing Naruto to frown as he heard he had encountered this unknown man before.
"Wh-" Naruto began to ask confused but stopped as his eyes widen. Watching as the man moved, releasing Tsunami as he effortlessly tossed her across the room.
"Tsunami!" Naruto yelled as he stood helpless watching the kind woman fly across the room before landing painfully on the floor, becoming a groaning heap as she clutched her arm that she had painfully landed on.
"You," Naruto growled dangerously as he glared at the cloaked man. "I'm going t-arghhh!" Naruto continued his threat becoming a cry of pain as a hard fist drove into his gut causing him to hunch over as the masked man who had somehow suddenly appeared before him, punched him.
"You're going to what Naruto?" The orange masked asked the hunched Naruto mockingly, retracting his fist before raising his leg as he sent out a hard follow up kick to Naruto's side.
"Naruto," Tsunami groaned from the floor as she watched the masked man send Naruto flying across the room with a kick. "S-stop." Tsunami pleaded as she watched the man walk towards the downed Naruto before repeatedly punching and kicking him.
"Stop!" Tsunami pleaded again gathering her strength as she got up before running towards the masked man to stop him.
"Stop!" Tsunami yelled again as she tried pushing away the masked man who spun away from the downed Naruto at speeds she couldn't see before grabbing her forcefully by the throat.
"P-Pl-ea-se st-op," Tsunami pleaded with the the orange masked man who was choking her as he raised her off the ground. Causing him to chuckle darkly behind his mask as he tightened his unrelenting grip around the struggling Tsunami.
"Tsunami," Naruto worriedly called out as he pushed himself off the floor. Ignoring the pain he felt from the multiple blows he had just received as he charged towards the masked man choking Tsunami.
"Let her go!" Naruto yelled running with a cocked fist towards the cloaked man before throwing out a punch towards him as he aimed to free Tsunami.
'W-what?' A wide eyed Naruto thought in panic as his fist and the rest of his body phased through the orange masked man who remained unharmed.
"I thought by now you would have learnt not to say that Naruto." The cloaked man repeated for a second time tonight, smirking as he drew Tsunami closer before tossing her away using more strength than he had the first time, knocking her out as the back of her body slammed forcefully against the wall, leaving behind a spider web of cracks as her limp form crumbled to the ground.
"Tsunami," Naruto whispered rage building up inside of him as he saw her remain unmoving. "Tsunami," Naruto repeated again between clenched teeth as his fists balled.
"Tsunammmmi!" Naruto yelled a third time causing the orange masked man to take a shocked step back as he saw Naruto's eyes flash orange-yellow repeatedly as a large seal matrix appeared across his naked torso.
"Sage Mode," The orange masked man whispered in shock as he looked at Naruto's flashing orange-yellow eyes, that told him the man was repeatedly entering and exiting Sage Mode which shouldn't be possible. 'The seal' The masked thought alarmed as the matrix he had applied days ago started to unexplainably glow causing him to further grow alarmed as he suspected the seal was breaking.
"You!" Naruto yelled enraged as he blitzed infront of the masked man before burying his fist into his face. Using the incredible unknown power that he had suddenly felt build up inside of him after seeing the man hurt Tsunami.
"Ah." The masked man grunted out in pain as most of his masked shattered from the force of the blow to his face that sent him flying out the house through a wall.
"You hurt Tsunami!" Naruto yelled his rage building up inside of him as he charged towards the masked man he had just punched. "You hurt her!" Naruto yelled as he sent out a flow up kick towards the masked man who had righted himself in mid-air. His foot missing its target as it much to his shock phased through the cloaked man with the rest of his body like his fist had earlier tonight.
"Wha-" Naruto began as he turned to face the man again but stopped as he dropped to his knees suddenly exhausted. The unknown strength he had gained from watching the masked man hurt Tsunami leaving him.
"I cannot kill you," the kneeling Naruto heard the man in front of him coldly say turning Naruto's attention to his scarred face that was partially exposed by his now damage mask. "But I will hurt you." The man added coldly with obvious venom dripping in his voice. Causing Naruto to involuntary shudder in fear before he grunted in pain as the man appeared in front of him. Mercilessly kicking Naruto in the chest. Knocking the pale red haired man backwards as he skidded across the forest floor.
Naruto grunted as a hand wrapped firmly around his throat, lifting his aching body up off the floor before a force painfully hit his throbbing chest throwing him back through several trees.
"Pl-ea-se," Naruto pleaded as he lay in the splinters of wood from the destroyed trees his aching body had gone through.
"P-le-a-se," Naruto pleaded as the cloaked man stood over him causing the red eyed man to let out a sinister chuckle as a small vortex appeared between them.
"I said I would hurt you," the cloaked man reminded causing Naruto's eyes to widen in fear before his whole body exploded in mind numbing pain as several shuriken shot out the vortex. Burying themselves all over his body leaving him severely bleeding, broken and unconscious.
"Naruto!" The orange masked man heard from behind causing him to smirk behind the remains of his mask as he saw Tazuna and Tsunami coming towards them in the distance.
'My part here is done,' the masked man thought before warping away knowing that what his sensei wanted concerning the two civilians and the Asura was done.

"Obito what had happened to your mask?" Minato asked as he flashed to from his home to the location Obito had summoned him to using his Hiraishin Marker.
"He accessed Sage Mode," Obito revealed causing Minato to breathe in sharply as his body stiffened.
"Did the seal break?" Minato questioned calmly not letting his inner emotions show.
"No," Obito replied quickly seeing the underlying rage his sensei's eyes held. "His access was only temporary." Obito added causing Minato to relax.
"And his memories?"
"Remain sealed."
"Are you sure?"
"He didn't remember who I was sensei." Obito elaborated earning a scoff from Minato who knew the Asura was always an idiot and his forgetting Obito, could have just likely been a slip of the idiot's mind instead of the seal.
"And the drunkard and his daughter?"
"Needed some convincing," Obito said darkly causing Minato to smirk as heard his student's tone, knowing that the Asura suffered from Obito's execution of the back up plan to have Naruto welcomed into the two civilians lives and home.
"Good work Obito," Minato said approvingly before flashing away with a smile, knowing that tonight he would definitely sleep well since somewhere in Nami no Kuni the Asura he loathed lay beaten, broken and hurting.
A/N So there is the chapter hope you liked it even though it was a bit rushed.
I tried my first mini lemon for the Minato genjutsu and I must say that was a very awkward few minutes for me as a rookie author.
Anyway I need a name for Naruto and Kushina's son. Something that's derived from the Third and Naruto's like Naruzen or Narutobi or something. If you have any ideas please leave them behind.
Thank you. And remember leave your feedback please. And read my other story.
