The house was empty. It always seemed to be. Kyuubi had contemplated to whole event when Naruto was eighteen. Naruto a week prior to the whole thing had come to him reviling why Minato was mad in the first place.

Flashback

"Kyuubi?" A hesitant Naruto asked. Kyuubi lifted his head from the book he was reading to look at his youngest sibling. He was nervous that was for sure. He kept rubbing his hands together and his eyes kept darting back between him and his means of escape.

The door.

"Yes Kit?" Kyuubi said. Naruto relaxed slightly at the nick name. It was a sort of safety code between them. Kyuubi was named after a Protective fox spirit that was said to guard Mount Fuji. And after Naruto was born he started following Kyuubi around like a baby fox learning about the world from it's parents. Hence the nickname.

"Can I talk to you about something?" Kyuubi gave Naruto a look that said 'You dummy you already are.' Naruto cleared his throat. Taking in a deep breath he looked right at Kyuubi.

"I'm Bi!" Naruto shouted. Kyuubi dropped his book. But not in surprise or disgust. He dropped it to cover his ears from Naruto's shouting. When he was sure Naruto was done he removed his hands from his ears and picked his book up. Dusting the cover he looked at Naruto with a nonchalant expression.

"Ya and?" He said Naruto's mouth dropped open. Kyuubi chuckled.

"Close your moth kit. The airplanes can land in there!" Naruto gaped like a fish before finally finding his voice.

"D-don't you care?!" He all but yelled. Kyuubi nearly bust out laughing.

"Why the hell would I care Kit? A body part doesn't dictate who you love! And man or woman unless your hurting them or their hurting you,I have nothing to do with it. It's your life not mine" Naruto fell to his knees. Small tears oh relief flooded his eyes. Kyuubi not used so seeing Naruto crying jumped off his bed and to the young adult. Panicking slightly he did what he hadn't done in years. He sat down and pulled a not so small any more Naruto into his arms. Arms wrapping protectively around the at the time lithe body.

"Kit what's really going on?" He asked softly. It was so out of the norm. Here was the football team caption Kyuubi Uzumaki-Nazimaki, the tough,cussing,smoking bad-ass;holding his eighteen year old brother in his arms like a two year old.

It was officially the day hell froze over.

"I-i wish T-tou-Sama acted that way" he sobbed. Kyuubi frowned. Minato Nazimaki was their father and a hardened war veteran. Kyuubi was built like him nearly all muscle on top of muscle;Where as Naruto was more like their mother Kushina Uzumaki. He was small and lithe but strong enough to be on par with Kyuubi. Minato on the other hand not so much. And Minato was not so open minded. We had a tendency to react badly to situations he didn't like. Suddenly dread washed over Kyuubi. What did Minato do to cause this reaction? Making Naruto looked him in the eye Kyuubi said what was on his mind.

"Kit? What did he do?"Naruto's lip quivered and he made a small squeak.

"He heard me telling Kaa-Chan. He was drinking and I was going to wait in till he was sober to say anything. But he came home early and heard every thing I said to Kaa-Chan! He was so mad Kyu! He threw Oba-San's Vase against the wall! He said and I quote 'No child of mine is allowed to like the same gender'. But what about Karin?! She's dating Anko!" Kyuubi truly had no answer. So he did all he could do. He held his baby brother close.

It was the last time he saw him.

Flashback end

"I was so stupid! I should have woke him up that morning! I should have said bye! I should have called the police when he stopped answering the phone!" He muttered. He always held that against him self. The morning after Naruto's confession Kyuubi had left early for what was supposed to be a two week tour of the leaf university campus. He had talked to Naruto every day for a week. In till the day he didn't answer the phone. Kyuubi thought that Naruto was just sleeping or studying for the collage entrance at Konoha.

Oh how wrong had he been. The next morning A maid had called him in tears saying that there was blood trailing from Naruto's room down the block and Naruto was no where to be found. Kyuubi had immediately packed his bag telling his future Professors what was going on before rushing to the next plane home. By the time he got there police tape was all around the house and people crowded around the house trying to hear what was going on. The police had stepped aside to talk to him. Kyuubi told them about Minato's violence and Kushina's impassiveness. There were so many possibility's. One stood out.

Attempted murder.

Considering the past events that is most likely what happened. The prospect was absolutely horrifying. What human being kills another one out of spite? Especially a father. The icing on the cake was the fact that Minato played the grieving father role even though Naruto was only missing not dead.

Or was he?

Kyuubi kept in contact with the police with out his father's knowledge. And he kept tabs on the way he was acting. He was becoming increasingly paranoid. Jumping at every little police siren or ambulance wail. The police figured they needed to look for a body when Minato started planing for his son's funeral.

Kushina had stopped talking the day the blood trail was found. So if Minato did murder Naruto and drag the body to different location,they weren't going to find out from her.

Kyuubi nearly jumped at the loud ring of his phone. It was a call from Caption commander Haruzen Sarutobi. Shakily he answered.

"Hello?" He breathed.

" Kyuubi-Kun...We found some bones. We need permission To compare Naruto's dental records with the bones we have" Kyuubi felt a cry rise in his throat.

"Y-ya" he squeaked. Quickly hanging up the phone he let out a dry sob. His best friend and roommate Shikaku or One Tail had been out of town on break so he was all alone. Looking at a framed picture of him holding Naruto when he was born Kyu let the first of many tears fall.

Tonight was going to be a long night.


Naruto looked at himself in the mirror. He changed his whole life. He got a new identity and let Naruto Uzumaki-Nazimaki fall off the grid completely. He died his hair dark brown and wore contacts. His hair had grown down to his calf's and was confined into a braid. His eyes instead of blue were a light green and all together he looked mixed between Japanese and English. He had gained more but not a lot of muscle in the past 4 years and he now looked like a man from front and behind. Unlike before. He kept the whiskers showing. Uzumaki-Nazimaki,Naruto did not have whisker scars.

Shinji Higashiosaka did.
