"Naruko-nee… I have a question." Naruto said as she helped his new sister stringing up paint traps. After every member of the Uzumaki clan had regrouped they had set to work making stink bombs, glitter bombs, and stick tags. They also drew up thousands of service request cards, with the assistance of shadow clones courtesy of Jiraiya and Naruko, addressed to the many businesses of Konoha as well as the mission desk. A whole day had passed and they were now in the 'Narutoverse,' as they had come to call it, setting up their many traps and pranks.

"Anything." She responded happily.

"Why are there so many of you- us, I mean?" He asked as he finished up the the trip-wire.

"Isn't it obvious?" She asked and when Naruto shook his head, she continued. "Mom and dad loved each other very much and then 'poof' we were made… Don't worry, you'll understand when you're older." Naruko shrugged.

"Why are they not with you guys?" He asked, the curiosity was plain in his voice.

'For one who doesn't have any parents, he doesn't breach that question delicately at all.'

"Well, about a year ago, just after little Uzuki was born actually, a man named Orochimaru launched an invasion on Konoha… Something about being Hokage, or whatever." She huffed as she tied a glitter bomb above a door.

"Dad was the Hokage at the time, so he did his job and fought to protect the village. Orochimaru wasn't alone though, he had a friend who helped him take dad down, they didn't kill him, just injured him really bad... Dad was the jinchuriki of Kurama, the Nine-tails, before it was mom who was the jinchuuriki but when I was born the seal broke and dad had to seal it inside himself, and that's where he stayed until that day. That was the day he sealed it inside me. I have special chakra, like my mom and dad, otherwise it would have been Uzuki. Anyways, having a demon pulled out of you kills most people and dad was already hurt… You can guess what happened next. Mom died while driving the invading forces from the village. So it's just us and Jiji now. You, too."

"Oh…" Was all he could say as he looked away. Suddenly his gaze snapped back to Naruko with a questioning look.

"What did Ayae mean when she said I have chakra just like you and dad?" He asked and Naruko almost dropped the stink bomb she was fixing above a window.

"Ah, well, you see, I was hoping to wait a little longer… But, uh, I guess what I'm trying to say is… You're like me?" She said, praying that he wouldn't understand and leave it at that. But he did understand, because despite popular belief, he wasn't stupid, or dumb. There was proof in his eyes, how they were sharp and piercing. He was the product of two geniuses, like the rest of the Uzumaki Clan.

"That's why they hate me…" He whispered to himself, but Naruko heard him. She bent over and picked the shocked boy up, hugging him.

"Still doesn't give them the right to do the things they've done to you." She whispered in his ear. "Now you listen to me, young man, you are not the demon fox. You are Naruto Uzumaki, twin brother of Naruhito Uzumaki, my otouto, Minehiko's, Kuugo's, Chifuyu's, Junya's, Ayae's, Isao's, Erena's, and Takahiko's otouto. You are Senta's and Yuzuru's and Fukuyo's and Uzuki's onii-san. Do you understand?"

"Yeah." He replied weakly, watery.

"Now… It's almost time… Let's get ready for the show!"


~October 12th, Age Six, Narutoverse~

It was a mild October day, like any other, when at six o'clock exactly the first scream of outrage was heard throughout Konoha. It wasn't the last. All day long people were pelted with bursts of glitter and buckets of paint, the streets and homes were filled with a wretched stench and no one could find where it was coming from! The worst place hit with The Stink, as it would forever be known as, was the Inuzuka dog kennels. Every restaurant that had ever refused service to Naruto mysteriously found that all their plates, bowls, and utensils were glued down and that there was an horrible smell coming from the bathrooms.

When the Hyuuga Clan began to stir, they found that all their undergarments had been dyed pink and string up all around the village. They would never live down the shame of having to go collect their unmentionables from the civilians yards. The academy teachers were forced to pick toilet paper from their yards all day, and their classrooms! All day people were tripping because their shoes had somehow been stuck to the ground. This was no amature, someone was launching an attack! Teams of jounin and anbu were sent out to find the culprit, only for them to return covered in neon pink, orange and green. But that wasn't the worst of it.


~October 13th, Age Six, Narutoverse~

No, the worst of it was when the next day, at five o'clock in the morning, a genin team arrived to clean the chimneys of the Uchiha Clan's houses. Those who answered the doors informed them that no team had been requested, and that their services were not required. A few moments later another team presented themselves, then another, and another, twelve in all. After the last of the teams had been sent away, a fleet of carts carrying large deliveries of coal began to arrive, followed by a series of cake makers delivering large wedding cakes, then doctors, lawyers, and priests summoned to minister to someone in the house they had been told was dying. Shoemakers, and over two dozen koto were among the next to appear. Dignitaries, including several members of the council, the Daimyo, the Head Priestess of the Shine and even the Hokage arrived. The narrow streets soon became severely congested with tradesmen and onlookers. Deliveries and visits continued until the early evening, bringing a large part of Konoha to a standstill.


~October 12th and 13th, Age Six, Narutoverse~

The Uzumaki Clan stationed themselves atop the Hokage monument, from where they spent the two days watching the chaos unfold while eating their weight in dango and ramen.

"How was your guy's' birthday celebration?"

"AWESOME!"


AN: Again, please review on your way out. Thank you.
