AzureK: Hey There I'm back with another chapter for you guys and gals. Now I will try to make longer chapters since I myself love long stories. It just really pulls me in. Now pleases don't expect fast updates like this because I am on the weekend and I had both chapters done since way before I posted them up. It might take me a week or two. Any longer then that is because I am not at a computer place since my ladtop was destroyed. Anyway did anyone like the cliffy I left last chapter? I don't think it was good but I felt like I should end it there. Anyway enough rambling from me on to the story and disclaimer.

Naruto: Azurekite666 does not own Naruto or any of the characters in it. He owns the characters he makes and the jutsus he does.

"Hi" Normal talk

'What a drag' Thinking

Chapter 2: The Promise of a Lifetime

The hospital was at a buzz. Nurses and doctors were running left and right all over the place. It was always like this on the day before the festival. In the so called 'peaceful' village were a lot of cases of fights, gang fights, rape cases, and the worst of all gang rape. Today was a really busy and stressful day for those who couldn't stop and enjoy the festival or go out and have fun. Especially for the Sandaime Hokage, Sarutobi Sauske. He was sitting in one of the hospital bench jumping his left leg up and down. Now everyone knew that to be Hokage, you had to be the strongest and smartest person in the whole village. Even in Sarutobi's old age he could still take down a couple of Jounin. But right now he wishes he was facing an army of Jounin right now instead of being in the hospital. He was here cause two of his most favorite 'grandsons' as he would think of them were in here.

'Why oh why did this have to happen today of all days?' Sarutobi thought.

Right now he was wondering what to do about the case. He remembers that today was going to be a pretty good day for him. He didn't have that much paper work to do, only had like three appointments, and He had the rest of the day free to do whatever he wanted. Then the damn Anbu had to show up and the worst time for him.

(INTO THE PAST NO JUTSU)1

Sarutobi was just about to walk out of his office when all of a sudden one of his Anbu wearing a dog mask appeared in front of him kneeling on one knee. Sarutobi wanting to know what was going on turned towards the figure and said in a commanding tone.

"What is it that you need Inu? As you can see I was just about to head out towards the two brothers."

Inu, whose head was bent down looking at the ground stood up and said in a flat tone.

"Sir, the containers of Kyuubi and its brother are being attacked right now Sir."

Sarutobi went wide eye did the only thing his mind was telling him to do. Jump out the window and run as fast as you can towards the children. He was hopping from rooftop to rooftop when Inu appeared next to him.

"Sir, should we really care what happens to the de-

"Finish that sentence and you shall be going in a round with Ikibi; got it?"

Inu stood in shock for a bit, before nodding his head in a yes. It took them a total of ten minutes to reach the sight before Sarutobi got really angry and started to releases some killer intent. The group surrounding the boys stopped and turned to see the Hokage standing right in front of them. In the middle of the group was a little boy with blonde hair shaking his brother shoulder say over and over again. 'Get up…please get up'. Sarutobi looked from the two boys to the now ever growing fearful mob.

"What have you idiots done to theses poor boys?!" Sarutobi yelled out while signaling to take the boys to the hospital by his trusted Anbu.

"W-W-We we-were just finishing wh-what the Yondaime started Hokage-sama." Replied a very stupid villager.

Sarutobi was shaking in so much anger he didn't see his Anbu try to calm him down with a few 'carefully' choice of words. Sarutobi finally noticed them and calmed down a bit. Then he looked and the villagers and ninjas and said.

"Since I don't have the time to send you all to Ikibi."

At this the villagers were smiling, thinking they were getting away scot free.

"I'll do the next best thing by killing you all." Stated Sarutobi

Before anyone could stop or say anything in protest, the Hokage did a quick succession of hand signs and yelled out.

"Katon: Goukakyuu no Jutsu" letting out a giant fireball, the Sandaime cooked everyone there alive with the jutsu.

All across the village people could hear the shouts of pain of screaming of the poor villagers. After checking to make sure that every single person had died, he walked off towards the hospital. When he arrived he saw the two children outside the hospital with the red headed child still bleeding from his back wound. Sarutobi taking no more of this shit, marched inside the building talking both the boys in, and shouted out loud.

"WHY ARE THESES CHILDREN NOT BEING TAKEN CARE OF?"

One of the few doctors who did not hate the children, came forward along with a group of doctors and commenced to take the two away to be operated on. After making sure they would be taken care of, Sarutobi sat down on a bench and waited to hear what would happen next.

(KAI)

Sarutobi had been waiting in the same place for the pass three hours. In about another two hours would be the children's 6th year of life. At remembering this Sarutobi let out a long sigh. He had planned on taking the kids to his office to eat both their respective favorite food to enjoy and eat. It looked like to Sarutobi that that plan was shot out of the water. Sarutobi began to rub his temples when one of the doctors came out of the door he saw the two kids go into. The old man stood up rather quick for someone his age, and asked in a frantic voice.

"How are they doing Akemi-san?"

The female doctor looked up to him with a small smile. That smile was all Sarutobi needed to know that the kids were alright for now.

"The children are all right Hokage-sama. They are just resting right now and should be out of the hospital in about a day or two."

At this the Hokage gave out a sigh of relief. He hadn't been so worried ever since he let one of his students go. He was about to ask her if he could go see them when he saw the small, very small frown begin to work on her face.

"The only problem I can see as of now is of young Naruto. That boy's state of mind was been damage but after seeing his brother jump in front of the kunai did a number to his psyche. I am afraid he might need some help to get the thoughts of his brother like that out of his mind."

At this Sarutobi grew in fear again. A broken body could be fixed no problem. It was a broken mind that could be the problem of all things. Once the mind has been broken it is very hard for the person to recover. He let at least one more sigh and begin to reach for his pipe. The hard look Akemi gave him though told him not to do it. He listened to his mind since he didn't want to receive something vicious on her end. She was after all a doctor, and they could do anything to screw you over. He looked at her eyes and asked.

"Is it alright if I go see the children right now?"

The doctor gave it a thought before nodding her head in a yes.

"Yes I think it should be fine. They need to be around people they recognize so they can do better in the hospital. Just remember Hokage-sama, No. Smoking. IN. THIS. HOSPITAL." Akemi said through clenched teeth.

The Sandaime gave off a little chuckle before walking to their room. There was no need to ask which room they were in since he gave them a room all their own because of the growing number of attacks on them.

(Naruto & Kenshin's Room)

Naruto was sitting upright in his room looking over at his brothers sleeping body. He kept on beating himself inside his head saying how he should have been stronger and how if he wasn't so weak that he could have done a better job than just receive the beatings the way he did. Naruto then notice the door open and grew fearful ever so quickly. When he notices it was the old man, he jumped out of his bed and ran to the Hokage, hugging him while crying into his robes. All the Hokage could do was kneel down and hug the small fearful child back. He started patting his back when Naruto began to calm down.

"There, there Naruto. It is alright, I'm here now."

Naruto looked up to him with tearful eyes before smiling a bit. Then he remembered his brother's condition and quickly lost it. Sarutobi took another sigh at this. He looked at the red headed boy then back at Naruto and asked him to get back in his bed. He then pulled up a chair and sat down staring at Naruto.

"Okay Naruto, I'm sorry for asking but I need to know what happened to you and Kenshin-kun today, and also why you were dressed in rags and not eating"

Naruto looked down at his folded hands then told him how they couldn't get anything to eat for a while, and that the orphanage kicked them out with nothing but the rags on them. Sarutobi was thinking of sending the caretaker to Ikibi when he started to hear some groaning. He turned around to see that Kenshin was waking up from his ordeal. Sarutobi let out a smile, knowing that the other brother would be alright. Kenshin looked around the room he was in then saw the old man. He let a small smile before he is eyes became wide and he shot out of bed.

"Jii-san, where's Naruto? Is he alright? Where is he GODAMN IT?"

Sarutobi jaw almost fell down the way Kenshin was acting. He then put his hands up in a calming matter and said to him.

"Calm down Kenshin-kun. Naruto-kun is right behind me and is alright and awake right now."

After he said that, said blonde jumped out once again and hugged his brother tight.

"Aniki, you're alright. I was so worried Aniki."

Kenshin smiled and hugged his brother back. He then looked up to the old man and said.

"Well I guess you want to know why I had a kunai lodged in my back."

Sarutobi nodded while sitting down again. Kenshin sighed and began to tell Sarutobi of the beating he got then jumping in front of the kunai.

(Flashback Kenshin's Pov)

I was taking a really bad beating, but nothing I haven't had before. I stole a glance to look at my brother and saw something that stopped my blood cold. They were holding a kunai, ready to stab his heart. After looking at this I let out a giant yell and somehow jumped up and ran towards my little brother. Right when the kunai was about to hit I jumped in front of it and got stabbed near one of my lungs. Blood was rushing up my mouth. I tried to hold it in but a little bit of it slipped out and it Naruto's face. I saw the look of confusion on his face and prayed to Kami he wouldn't open his eyes. As luck would have it a bit more of my blood slipped out and hit him again in his face. He opened his eyes and I saw the shock in them. I tried to give him a smile, to let him know I would be alright, but it was a hard thing to do right now. I then saw a ninja running towards. That was the last thing I saw before I blacked out and dropped near my brothers body.

(Flashback end Normal Pov)

Sarutobi was not liking the story the more he heard about it. He shook his head and rubbed his temples a bit before an idea hit him. He looked up to the two brothers and asked them both a very important question.

"Naruto, Kenshin..how would you too like to learn a little secret?"

The two boys looked at him with wide eyes before nodding their head in a major yes. Sarutobi chuckled before he told them what he had to say.

"Well there is a special place, behind my office that holds great and powerful weapons. I would like each of you to pick one of your choice. But before that can happen, I want to teach you both how to hide in the shadows so you can escape the villagers more. Then when you are both twelve, I will enroll you in the ninja academy. How does that sound?"

The two boys jumped out of their beds both whooping loudly and cheering their little heads off. Then they both turned to the Hokage and both said at once.

"You have a deal Jiji-san. By the time we are done, we will be the best ninjas ever and both become Hokage, that's a promise Jiji."

They both put there right hand in with their pinking sticking out. The Hokage knowing what was goanna happen, stuck his pinky out was well and entwined it with theirs.

"Promise?" the Hokage asked.

Both boys gave him they genuine smiled and both shouted.

"PROMISE!"

AzureK: Yes another chapter down. Well please Read and Review and tell me what you think off this chapter. Also just to tell you guys now, NO they will not be trained by Sarutobi. He will only tell them how to hide in the shadows and avoid detection. Now for a little voting now. Do I skip to them being twelve or do I go through the six years of training with them. Please tell me what you think and I will try to update next week. Ja'Ne
