CHAPTER 2

Disclamer: We only own Cedric and Misheru all others are owned by the Naruto Fanchise we do not own them.

Kurama heard Naruto scream and turned to see if the bastard had killed him but instead he saw a color changing fox girl and her flaming companion who had curly hair that was black with flickering silver in it like the flames that surrounded her and the infant Naruto she was singing to the infant a lullaby that put him to sleep. "Who are you and what are you doing to Naruto?!" Kurama cried. Minato appeared next to naruto's captors and held up his hand. "Kurama, I am afraid that my wife will no longer be able to be your companion. You have done all you could to protect Naruto, I was hoping that you would be willing to keep him safe as his mother will most likely die tonight." Kurama sat and all nine of his tails fell "You mean that she cant even hold Naruto…that she ..NO! She has to live she…she…" Kurama started to cry. Cedric held up a hand. "How much does this person mean to this place ?" Misheru blinked and recalled how Naruto s life would be if he lost his parents "She means the world, if she and Minato die this boys life and this worlds life will be nothing but suffering, many will die who don't need to. We arrived here in time to prevent all that from happening!" Cedric then looked at Minato and as the flames fell away kurama was surprised to watch as her hair became curly dirty blond. "I believe that there is something we can do… but Minato I will need you to promise that you will care for my sister and make sure that she is happy and loved." Minato held his son "Even if you cant save my wife she will always have a place in this village." "Cedric what do you mean?" "Hokage! the village is evacuated and your wife is calling for you if you plan to see her before…Who is the hottie?" Guy looked at Cedric and was promptly smacked by Kakashi. "That 'Hottie' would be cedric. Minato you need to reseal kurama into naruto your wife will feel better knowing that both of them are safe." Minato nodded.

Kushina was lying on the ground as people were rushing by "Minato, where is my husband?" "Hush Hush dearie he will be here soon enough, the fight is over and from what I have heard the man who took your babe has off and run. Now Ill be back to tend on you in a bit there are others who need to be healed." kushina sighed,'Naruto, im so sorry that i never got to see you.' Minato arrived and asked the medical ninja an older women where his wife was. "Kushina has passed on she is in the sentry post with the rest of the dead. Im so sorry Hokage." Minato ran with his son to the sentry post and ripped the sheets of many corpses till he found Kushina. "Kushina, KUSHINA! KUSHINA!" Cedric found Minato sobbing over his wife's dead body holding his sleeping motherless son. "Well this will be a little difficult we have to move her, away from this place. Come on Minato don't give up now she is not yet lost." Minato looked up "What do you mean? Bringing back the dead is forbidden!" "To you yes but not to me, I just have to bargain. You cant get something for nothing, I will have to give something in exchange for your wife's life to be returned just remember your promise." Cedric waved kakashi in "Guy has Misheru helping heal the injured right?" "Yes Cedric. Where do you want to move her?" "Move her to where no one will see us. I don't believe that I will be able to do this more than once."

Misheru held the hand of a child as the healer realigned the bones in his broken leg "Is there anything else that I can do to help? He is in so much pain!" Guy shook his head, "Unless you can perform some kind of magic he will have to feel this we don't have any pain killer to spare." "Ill try to do what I can" MIsheru closed her eyes and a soft blue glow enveloped the boy and he sighed and fell asleep. the healer paused "Can you do that again I have at least a hundred other ninja who could use that." Misheru blushed turned pink and nodded. " I will do all that I can to help."

Kakashi laid Kushina s body down on the top of the rubble where cedric and misheru had landed. Minato helped Cedric draw. "Cedric what are we drawing?" "We are drawing what I feel we should draw. I have never actually done this before but since each person is different each drawing is different. But the circles you are drawing are to contain this to just your wife and I. No one else is to enter the circle once i light up. Understand?" Minato and kakashi nodded. Minato held his son as Cedric caught fire once more. Cedric closed her eyes and spoke. "Kushina." "Why do you wish for Kushina?" the wind seemed to vibrate with the voice. "She is the key stone for this whorl if she is lost so to are we." "do you truly believe this?" the wind asked again "Yes. She is a mother and parents raise and protect the future, if they are lost so to is the future. I know that the balance must be kept so I wish to make a deal." "Im listening.." The voice asked. "I am not from here so help protect this world and its future so that it does not meet the end that befell my world." "I will spare her but I shall seal you away till such a time that you are released." Minato held his breath as the world seemed to go black. Kushina opened her eyes holding a fist sized black and silver sphere when a voice spoke "A life has been given so that you might live do not let this be wasted." Minato ran to his wife and held her laughing. kakashi sighed. Kushina held the orb. "Minato who.." "Cedric she and her sister Misheru have helped save our homes and Cedric gave up her life so that you might live." Kushina looked at the orb in her hand and studied it. "Minato the voice…it said that it was going to seal someone away. So this Cedric cant be dead. Just sealed away in this orb." Minato looked at the orb closely "Well lets just hope you are right. But since neither of us know how to unseal this thing Cedric might as well be dead. Her sister might not understand this." "Minato we cant just tell her that Cedric is dead!" Minato heard something hit the ground. "Sh..She…She's dead?" Misheru whispered and started to sob uncontrollably. Kushina tried to sooth her and tell her that her sister was not dead but when she handed the orb to Misheru she went silent. "I don't care what you say. There is no life in this thing. MY SISTER IS DEAD!" Minato and Kushina carried Misheru home Kakashi was silent as he held the orb to him it seemed that the silver shifted and glowed with life but he didn't want to correct Misheru and drive her furthering despair. Several weeks went by and Kushina and Minato had officially taken Misheru into their family to care for her. The village was being repaired slowly. Naruto was learning to speak and talked to Misheru constantly in his baby babble but Misheru made on acknowledgement of any one or anything around her. Kushina was feeding Naruto when Minato came home covered in dust from helping with the repairs. "Minato this cant go on. If she stays like this much longer she will die and I don't think I would be able to take it. Cedric left her in our care we cant let this continue." Minato nodded then we will have to do as we discussed. Kushina nodded and put Naruto down for his nap.
