I do not own naruto or grandia only my personal plot bunnies and dust bunnies

Chapter 1: The Beginning

The third Hokage was sitting behind his desk watching the cradle beside and its occupant. He gave off a sad and depressed sigh at the events that transpired that day. The baby Naruto was looking at him with innocent saphiare blue eyes and smiled before giggling. Unfortunately, this only depressed the Hokage more. He glanced at portrait of the Fourth Hokage and thought out loud," what would you think of the village if you saw the mess that has formed."

Flashback (2 days)

The council was in a uproar insults were flying through the air, threats were bouncing off the walls, and the Hokage was sitting through all of this like a mountain in a hurricane. The Council is fortunately or unfortunately made up of a civilian half and a ninja half. There is also four seats for a hokage's advisers which usually consists of the hokage's teammates from when he or she was a regular ninja. The Fourth was the apprentice of one of the Sannin so he had no teammates. This meant that the Thirds former teammate were still the council advisers. The last seat was held by a badly disfigured man known as Danzo. The best description for Danzo was an old war-hawk he felt that the best path for the village was to destroy or subjugate all he deemed enemies.

After the noise had settled many began to notice that the Hokage seemed to be paying more attention to the bundle in his arms than the words that were being spoken. One of the civilian council spoke up out of indignation and curiosity.

"What in that bundle is so important that you IGNORE the words of the council," the pink haired woman shrieked.

Akira glanced around at the assembled men and women that helped run the village. He took a deep breath and stood up from his seat. Strolling across the room and placed the bundle on a table before the council. He unwrapped it to reveal little Naruto to the room.

"This is Naruto Namikaze son and first born to Minoto Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki Namikaze as of eight hours ago," Akira spoke loudly. Both sides of the council wore confused and curious faces.

"Why does that matter in the slightest who he is," the woman screeched again.

"It is important because...," the Hokage continued, "as of seven hours ago Naruto is now also the container of the Kyuubi no Kitsune." "The nine-tailed fox demon that attacked and was defeated."

He knew that this knowledge was would cause another uproar, but he did expect the response that he got. The civilian council exploded in rage and shouting for the baby's death. Demanding that he kill the demon while it is weakened and to finish what the Fourth started. Through all of the Akira noted that Danzo had remained quiet and had a calculating look in his eye. The Third grew tired of the racket they making and decided to put a stop to it.

"SILENCE," he bellowed lacing his voice with killing intent.

You could hear a pin drop in the room as all the voices stopped at the same time. Before Akira could continue Danzo spoke out into the room.

"He should be trained as a weapon for the village of Konoha's defense," he declared. He then continued with, "Our allies the Hidden Sand have a container, the Hidden cloud has two containers, Hidden Stone has a container, and even the Hidden Waterfall village has one." He finished with, "I am sure that you noticed that out of the ones we know of two of the villages that have containers do not like us."

Almost as soon as he finished speaking the civilian council started to agree with him and even the Head of the Uchiha Ninja clan Fugaku Uchiha was agreeing with him. Akira looked over at the other ninja council members to judge their reactions and thoughts. All of the other major clan heads, except for two, held various looks of anger and disgust at their counterparts actions. The two that showed know no emotions what so ever were the Hyuga clan head and the Aburame clan head. The Hyuga head has always been a cold seeming Bastard and the Aburame are just hard to read (stupid high collar jackets).

The third Hokage once again released a large amount of Killing Intent that paused all conversation in the room. He glared at the assembled men and women in rage before he managed to calm himself down enough to talk with screaming.

"He is not going to be used as a weapon unless he decides to join the ninja program," Akira declared as he continued to glare. "As for what is going to happen he is going to go to his mother Kushina who is resting in the hospital from the hard child birthing she just went through." The Third took a deep breath and held up his hand to forestall any protest before they began. His mind worked a mile a minute before he gave himself a mental nod. "Further more, I declare that all that has been said at this meeting is a SS class secret and that to speak of it to anyone is grounds for treason and death."

With these words Akira Sarutobi picked up Naruto turned around and stormed out of the council chambers nearly knocking the ANBU elite ninja through the wall on the other side of the door. Most of the ninja council was smirking while all of the civilian council and the Hokage's teammates stared slack-jawed in surprise. Danzo watched all of this with absent interest the only thoughts going through his head was that he would have Naruto as a weapon no matter the cost.

End Flashback

The Third glanced at Naruto one more time before he turned and glared at his desk and the unkillable enemy of all Hokages … paperwork. He sighed to himself and began to work through the pile even as his secretary brought in more. Several hours later at around four in the afternoon he heard a loud crash fallowed by another. The next thing he heard was his secretary continuous shouts of "the hokage is not to be disturbed". This was apparently ignored because the next voice he heard was someone growling at the two ANBU in front of the door to move. The sounds of a brief scuffle was heard fallowed by his door slamming open and Konoha's Red Death Kushina Namikaze thundered into the room as the doors, which had hit the walls slammed shut again in the now downed ANBU's faces.

Through this entire event Akira sat there looking at the door and then her with a calm face and normal manner. On the inside however he was sweating bullets and looking for a place to hide. Nothing is as scary as an angry kunochi except when that anger is directed towards a pervert …(cough Tsunade cough).

"How can I help you Kushina," he asked.

She glared at him for a moment before sighing. "I want all of my husbands possessions sealed up and I am quitting as a ninja," she declared.

Sarutobi was speechless for a moment, "a...are you sure, but why," he stuttered out.

"Yes I am sure, and because this place has too many memories of him we are moving to the capital," she answered.

Sarutobi sighed before he wrote out a message and sent it off. Kushina handed him her head-band and she received scrolls her husband left. She thanked him and started to rise up from the chair saying.

"Jiraiya has agreed to escort us to the capital so me and my family will be gone by tonight," she says.

The Third nodded and responded with, "I will make sure Naruto is ready to go."

Kushina snorted and turned around, "do not bother it is not coming with us."

The Hokage stared in surprise, "what do you mean." "I don't under stand."

She turned and glared at the cradle where Naruto had slept through everything. "My husband and son are dead," she spit out with enough acid to burn through any metal. "As far as I care take the little demon out and drown it!"

As the door slams shut Akira slumped back into his chair and looked at the crib. Only two things went through his head as he watched Naruto sleep. The first was how sad it was to have lost everything so early in life. And the second was on how much more paperwork this was going to cause.
