A parent's love
"Who are you two?"
Turning their heads both the man and the woman had a gentle yet sad face. The first to speak was the man with bright yellow hair.
"Naruto … " saying just one word he turned to face the other person. "Kushina, how come you are also here?"
"I .. I felt that Naruto wanted to free the Kyuubi to obtain his powers, but it seems he didn't had the key of the seal and instead tried to destroy the seal from outside." In front of the woman called Kushina tens of chains were standing straight and could be seen restraining something behind the gates inside the darkness.
"Something dangerous should have happened. Naruto, can you please tell me what happened in Konoha?" The young man with a childish yet handsome face spoke to Naruto in a gentle voice.
"First tell me who are you two? What are you doing inside my body?!" Naruto couldn't understand the situation, but seeing that they were stopping him from receiving power from the Kyuubi, he felt that they couldn't be allies. Because of this he felt anger.
"Naruto, my name is Uzumaki Kushina and even if this situation is hardly a place for a family meeting, I'm happy to say that you are my son." The eyes of the woman who spoke were filled with tears and after she spoke she covered her face and feel down on the knees sobbing.
The young man who saw what happened went to her and embraced her thin body. Turning just his head to fate Naruto he said the words Naruto may have expected the least "Naruto, I'm the fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze and Kushina's husband, in other words your father."
Naruto looked at the two who claimed to be his parents. He wanted to say it's impossible. But the way the woman and the man were looking at him was strange. Sadness, love, regret. No one looked at him like that. No one had eyes that contained so much love. Slowly moving his body forward stumbling here and there, he started running towards the two. Once he reached them he threw himself in their arms and started crying. Both his parents were also sobbing while embracing the body of their child.
A few minutes later Naruto finally raised his head to look at them.
"From now on are you going to be with me right?" The smiling face made the other two pale. The woman who couldn't hold her feeling started crying once again in despair. Only the young man with a sour face spoke.
"Naruto, we are already dead."
"N-no, no, please, don't leave me alone, please!" The imploring voice made the two parents sad but also scared. Something was very wrong.
"What happened Naruto?" The young man asked.
"I can't live in this world alone anymore. I don't have parents, I don't have friends and everyone just wants to see me dead. The fox said he will grant me powers, that he will teach me how to become stronger. He also told me that if I use this power I will be able to stop them from looking down on me and to make it easier for me to use, he will share with me his wisdom." Naruto was able to speak about his true feelings for the first time because he could feel their concern and love for him, a feeling that was a lot stronger even from the attention Iruka showed him.
"Kyuubi!" Screaming his father boiled with rage while the woman near him looked back at the cage with eyes full of hatred.
"Naruto" the woman who was still embracing him spoke "tell us everything kyuubi said."
Naruto couldn't understand the change in his parents, but felt that it's better to tell them about how he reached this place for the first time and how the demon fox gave him three options. Witch each word the face of his parents were turning colder and colder. When Naruto finished speaking both his parents were silent. His father who was still looking to the fox spoke.
"The third option is actually the only way to free him. The first two are not possible without the key for the seal and enough chakra from the host, in other words, yourself. The third option makes the seal weaker, but it's not possible to destroy it. Even if you die the fox can't obtain his freedom. But by making it weaker, he is able to use his chakra easier. Remember that he told you to come back after he gained his freedom. If both of us were not here you would have went inside the cage where the kyubi could have used his power for a long time to corrupt your spirit. Like this you would have become his puppet and he could search for the key to free himself using your body."
Naruto, who listened to his father words had a blank look. He was once again betrayed.
"Naruto, listen to me. Naruto!" His mother screaming his name made Naruto able to recover.
"I don't understand what happened inside the village but it seems they betrayed our trust. I don't know why Sarutobi-san didn't take care of you but now that doesn't matter. We will soon disappear, but before that I will try to give you the power you need."
"W-what do you mean you will disappear?" Scared he looked at both of them. The cold feeling of loneliness was grasping his heart once again.
"Naruto" then young man smiling said "we are dead, but we were able to finally see you, not one at a time, but both of us together. I know it's hard, but try to understand that this miracle, only you have the chance to see. Do you want to ignore the rest your mother words even now?"
Hearing his father words, Naruto stopped the tears that were falling like rain. Wiping the rest off his face he made a resolute face.
"Father, mother, thank you for protecting me even now, I love you!" Each words came from his true heart, a heart that found the only true light to guide him. This time his father had his vision clouded and started wiping his eyes furiously while his mother embraced him even stronger and cried on his back. Seeing his parents Naruto for the first time felt like he was truly a blessed person.
"Naruto, my dear child, listen to me" between her sobs his mother spoke " I will suppress the chakra of this half of kyubi, while your father will suppress the other one that was sealed inside him. Both of us will create chakra treads that will connect to your body. Minato, can you do it?" Wiping her tears she spoke.
"Yes, I'm your husband in the end. Also Naruto, it seems that now we are able to control even our memories and send them of as chakra, because of this I will also give you through the chakra two of my strongest techniques. Their names are flash and rasengan. Both of them are very strong."
"Flash and rasengan." Hearing the name Naruto's eyes were sparkling.
"That's not fair!" Kushina who didn't want to be the only one not giving Naurot something thought for a few seconds before speaking."Naruto, I will also give you my Adamantine chains, they can be used both for sealing and attacking. I am the last person who know their secret and they are very strong if you can understand them. I hope they will aid you." His mother said while pouting.
"Yes, thank you very much mother. I love you." His words calmed his mother.
"Now, sit in a position that allows you to concentrate. It's better to sit with your upper body straight because it will keep your mind clear. It's going to hurt so you need to be prepared."
Hearing her words Naruto took a few steps back and sat with his legs bended in front of him while his palms were pushing on his knees slightly. Closing his eyes he waited. A few seconds after that, threads of chakra connected to his body pouring inside him a huge quantity of chakra every second. Grimacing, Naruto tried to contain his screams, but after a while he wasn't able and started screaming loudly while digging his nails inside the skin of his knees.
"Minato, is he going to be alright? Maybe we should stop.." Kushina who was worried about the well being of her son was ready to give up but her husband wasn't.
"Naruto suffered enough, I don't know what went wrong, but he needs power, power to protect himself from everyone." Minato knew that Naruto would suffer, but this is the price of power. Feeling his father wishes Naruto didn't faint and instead tried to contain his screams. His entire body was covered in sweat making his mother worry even more.
Ten minutes since it began Minato noticed something strange.
"Kushina, cut all the treads now!"
Hearing him Kushina cut all the treads leaving Naruto gasping for air trying to control his breathing now that the huge pressure disappeared.
"What happened Minato?"
"Bring kyubi closer." Hearing his wish using the chains Kushina brought kyubi closer. Strangely she didn't feel any resistance. When they could finally see the body of the fox they understood why. It barely had any life force left.
"How could this happen. Naruto! Are you alright?"
Hearing his mother voice Naruto simply nodded opening his eyes.
"I'm alright, actually I'm feeling better than ever. Thank you, mother, father." Smiling Naruto told the two that were looking at him with worried eyes.
"Kushina, the chakra that was sealed inside me completely disappeared and Kyuubi is almost dead. It seems Naruto has the capacity of holding a power that even the kyuubi couldn't use."
Slowly Naruto raised from where he was and moved next to where kyuubi was laying in a yellow flash. Putting his hand on the head of the huge fox that was looking at him now scared, instead of killing it he started caressing his fur. The demon fox who couldn't understand what was happening looked at Naruto with questioning eyes.
"Thank you old fox, because of you I was able to met my parents and also obtain the power I needed. I'm thankful to you even if you wished to control me. I'm not going to kill you." Leaving the cage in a yellow flash, he arrived in front of his parents.
Kushina and Minato were looking at their son who seemed to have changed greatly. Both of them moved to him and embraced his body. Naruto did the same closing his eyes in happiness. Slowly the bodies of both Minato and Kushina started to disappear becoming transparent.
"Naruto, I love you my dear child, my beautiful child, take care of you, try to find someone you can love with all your heart. Like this you can find peace and calm your heart. Remain healthy and never be picky about food." Kushina crying spoke each word with all the possible love a parent can show to his child.
"Naruto, you are going to be a great ninja, a great man, and I just hope you will not walk on a path that will bring sadness to yourself. I trust you that your choices will not bring unhappiness upon this world and instead you will try to take care of those weaker. Try to forgive and if it's not possible forget." Minato, also with teary eyes said the words he never believed he would be able to tell his son.
A few seconds before both Kushina and Minato disappeared Naruto spoke.
"Mother, father.."
"Yes, Naruto." Minato and Kushina answered at the same time.
"See you soon." A strange smile appeared on the face of Naruto, looking at him both Minato and Kushina felt a cold chill. They understood that something was wrong with Naruto. They tried to say something but their words now couldn't be heard. Seeing them like this Naruto let out a small laugh.
"I love you, both of you for everything you gave me. Because of this I will not accept a world where both of you died. So I will bring you back here. Thank you for worrying about me. Everyone said it was annoying when parents are like this. But finally being able to feel it makes me so happy that I barely can contain my tears. I love you, mother, father."
With these words Minato and Kushina calmed down. They looked at each other and started smiling. They turned back to Naruto and both of them opened their mouths saying words no one would hear. But Naruto saw their lips so he understood, because of this he just nodded. Kushina and Minato now disappeared leaving Naruto alone, alone next to a demon fox.
Like usually, leave a review if you feel like you need to say something, if you don't feel like saying something then just ignore this paragraph.
Chapters will be mostly one per day, maybe more, maybe less. If something happens, then please don't forget that we all have problems.
