Kyuubi paced the newly polished floors of the hospital, worrying his nails to the bed as he frantically thought about Itachi. He hadn't noticed anything during the heat of the moment when he fought with his father, but afterwards Itachi did seem a little too dependent on Kyuubi for support. The red-head only wished that everything would be okay, so their family (hopefully) could live happily with one another. The constant sound of machines and their annoying beeping erupted it the background, as Kyuubi held his body close. Why was his family falling apart? He'd never expected the "great" Uzumaki-Namikaze household to fall so low, it was pitiful. Everyone looked up to them as the ideal family that they wanted to live as, but what the people didn't know was that everything was probably worst than what they lived on a normal basis. Their youngest son is abused and ignored, while the eldest is worshipped no matter what the hell he did. Kyuubi would yell and/or fight his father only to watch Naruto get beat for "corrupting" his mind. It made no damn sense! His emerald eyes glistening as the doctor slowly approached his person, at which the Uzumaki's body grew taut. "Doctor, how...How is he?!" Kyuubi abruptly exclaimed, his hands trembling as the middle age man approached his convulsing person. The bespectacled man, had a bob cut, his light brown eyes glistening in the hospital lights.
"Mr. Uzumaki, please...have a seat." The red-head carded his fingers through his locks, eyes narrowing to subdue the tears from rolling down the brink of his eyes. Strangers walked around them in the hospital lobby, while the two languidly sat, each facing the other in complete and utter silence. "...He's stable." Kyuubi sighed in relief, a small smile curling up his lips. "...but what's pestering me, is how he attained the cut to his heart. We found a blade shard pierced into the top of his left atrium, but other than that he's doing fine." Kyuubi nodded understandingly, brushing his red bangs behind his ears innocently, while watching the doctor. "I have to ask you a few question, if you don't mind?-"
"-That's fine."
"Do you know anything about how the blade could've gotten into his heart?" Kyuubi squirmed in the seat, his emerald eyes averting down the narrow hallway towards the ICU room.
"He...He did get into a fight with my father before, I noticed the wound.-"
"-Did you see a knife in your father's possession during the fight?"
"No."
"Is your father an abusive person?" Kyuubi rubbed his forearm, a bead of sweat trickling down his forehead as he debated with himself whether to divulge all that had gone on within the Uzumaki-Namikaze home. If he said how corrupt his parents were, the negative publicity they'd receive would devastate them all.
"...No, he's never been violent."
"You can tell me anything, I took an oath to never tell anything we discuss between the two of us."
"No, he's not violent."
"Okay, let me go place this information in our record and afterwards, you'll be able to discharge him." Kyuubi shook the doctor's hand, his eyes closing as he lolled against the back of the leather couch. He was angry that he couldn't bring himself to tell on his parents, but he felt that destroying their dignity was more devastating than damning himself along with them. He loved Naruto, and he'd make sure they wouldn't hurt his brother. Kyuubi had a plan, and he intended on taking the blonde with him.
Naruto sat in the passenger side of Sakura's car, his eyes intently calculating the scenery outside of said vehicle as they drove towards his home. After divulging to Sakura about his pregnancy, he felt so much better that he had someone else to help him through his pain, however how would he tell his parents? Or Sasuke? But most and importantly, how would he explain it all to Fugaku himself? It bothered him and he wanted to avoid having to come to this, but he cared about the baby just not its father. He barely knew the man, and now he's pregnant and can't do anything to stop it. Well...There was a way but he preferred not to accept that option. The wind blew graciously in his hair, with the window rolled down next to him. "Naruto, are you sure about going home?-"
"-Yeah, I'll be fine. Father had to work overtime today and mother isn't as-"
"-Abusive-"
"-Sakura, I wouldn't say that." He answered to her, his azure eyes hardening at the sight of his home growing larger as they advanced towards it. "It's not like anything bad will happen...I'll call you if I need you." The car came to a hiatus as Naruto opened the door, and closed it languidly behind him, before stalking towards the entrance of his home. His body grew taut, and the thought of something happening behind those doors horrified him. What is he didn't make it out alive this time? He noticed that father's car was home, which he could've sworn the blonde had overtime tonight, but despite his own reasonings he continued to stalk towards the door, glancing over his shoulder to make sure that Sakura was still there. And she was. The horn blew twice.
"Bye Naruto!"
"Okay, bye!" He answered as he opened the front door, stepping inside the dim-lit home and closed the door behind him, his eyes calculating his surroundings. Everything was quiet, and that bothered the shit outta Naruto.
"Kyuubi, baby is that you?!" Kushina inquired, running towards the head of the staircase, coming to a hiatus at the sight of Naruto. The 16-year-old gulped, noticing his mother purse her lips, as she languidly descended the stairs. "Naruto, aren't you on punishment?" The blonde shrugged his shoulders, backing away from his mother even though deep down inside he knew she wouldn't dare hurt him. "I could've swore I told you, that you weren't allowed to leave the home without informing us of where you were going" she stated, now face to face with here youngest child
"...Yes, mother but-" Kushina slapped him across the face, eliciting Naruto to clutch his cheek into his calloused palm as tears began to swell into his eyes.
"Your father has waited for you to get home-"
"-What does he want?!...He's probably going to beat me like I'm some demon child! You wonder why I don't come home?! I'm tired of all this abuse!" Kushina bared her teeth, shoving Naruto forcing against the refrigerator, before grabbing a butcher knife and slamming it into the wall, as Naruto barely evaded the slice of the blade, when he tried to escape. He ran, the adrenaline pumping through his veins as he headed up the stairs towards his bedroom. "Kyuubi!...Kyuubi help me!-"
"-Don't call for him, Naruto." The blonde gawked at Minato, his face bandaged and so were his knuckles. "Kyuubi, can't always protect you." Minato clutched a handful of Naruto's hair into his hand, dragging the thrashing blonde down towards his bedroom. His eyes enraged. "You will learn to keep that devilish behavior to yourself and stop manipulating my son!-"
"-Father, Im...I-"
"-Don't you dare call me that! You don't deserve to call me that name." Kushina pursed her lips, closing the door behind her, as the two adults watched Naruto shutter in fear.
"Please...please I'm sorry, whatever I did... I apologize!" Minato slammed his clenched fist against Naruto's right cheek, eliciting his head to crack against the small table next to the bed. He kicked at his father, tears streaming down his cheeks as he threw him on top of the bed and beat him. Naruto cried out, slamming his hands against Minato's nose, only to have the man grab his throat and slam his head forcefully against the wall. "Stop! I'm sorry...please don't hurt me...I'm...I'm-"
"-Shut up!" Kushina pushed the knife into Naruto's abdomen in a fit of outrage, eliciting his blue eyes to widened incredulously. "Kill him, Kushina...kill him now!-"
"-Don't!...I'm...preg...nant!" He exclaimed through gasps for breath, as blood spewed from his mouth. The two adults gawked at him, before his mother hastily pulled the blade from his torso, all watching the blood stain his clothing. Naruto stared deadpan at his father, who worried his bottom lip as he cautiously reached forward and caressed his cheek. It felt strange to both Uzumakies to touch in such a caring way. Naruto wept, hiccupping as Kushina threw the blade away and wrapped her arms protectively around Naruto's convulsing body. "...I'm preg...pregnant...I...I'm so s-"
"-Hush, Naruto..." Kushina pleaded, carding her fingers through his hair to soothe him. "Minato, please call an ambulance so we can take our baby to the hospital." He man nodded obediently, limping down the long narrow hallway, to retrieve the house phone. Naruto gasped for breath, wrapping his arms around his estranged mother who continued to card her fingers through his hair. It baffled Naruto that after he divulged to his parents about his pregnancy, they immediately altered their demeanor towards him. Still it seemed all too surreal, and he could only imagine what they'd do to him if he lost the baby. "I'm so sorry, Naruto." The blonde nuzzled his face into the nape of Kushina's neck, loathing that the only thing allowing his parents to finally love and care for him, was he baby that he carried.
Sasuke rushed into the lobby of the hospital, his onyx eyes frantically searching for any familiar faces in the crowd. Kyuubi noticed the raven at the doorway, hastily making his way towards Sasuke who embraced him in a tight hug. "I'm so sorry, Sasuke-"
"-Is Itachi going to be okay?" The red-head pulled away, nodding his head to assure the younger boy, who sighed in relief. Mikoto and Tobi both came around the corner, hands entwined at which Kyuubi gawked at them.
"Hi, Mrs. Uchiha and-"
"-Im Tobi, nice to meet you." The raven extended out his hand, at which the red-head accepted pleasantly.
"Kyuubi." Sasuke glared at his uncle, whipping around to see a doctor rush towards the emergency room doors, calling out frantic orders.
"Get him to the room stat!-"
"-Doctor he's pregnant! And he has a stab wound in his abdominal area, we mustn't waste any more time-"
"-Nurse please, get him there quickly!" Sasuke watched as the paramedics pushed in a blonde on the stretcher, his eyes closed and face covered with an oxygen mask. Same scars upon his face as Naruto had, and he even looked like a spitting image of that annoying blonde. That's when he realized... it was Naruto!
"Naruto!" He exclaimed running towards the doctors who surrounded the bed, eliciting Kyuubi to whip around and see his younger brother's blood stained shirt.
"No." He whispered, chasing after Sasuke, as his mother and father came from around the corner both staring absent mindedly at him. Mikoto and Tobi walked over together, each greeting Kushina and Minato, as Sasuke was arguing with the doctor for not allowing him to see Naruto.
"What the fuck you mean I can't see him?!" Sasuke growled, cursing inwardly as Kyuubi pulled him back. "That's my friend in there! Help him! And if he's pregnant, help that baby too!" He was astonished more so than anything, because upon hearing about Naruto being pregnant it reminded him of the first day that they met.
"Dude? Hey, man are you okay?" He arched an eyebrow, pondering on what pestered the blonde but his eyes soon discovered the answer, once his eyes fell upon the pregnancy test at Naruto's feet. He smirked. "Dude, are you crying because you got a girl pregnant? What are your parents, strict or something?" Naruto hastily wiped the tears away, glaring at the raven who then arched an eyebrow curiously.
"My parents do give a shit what I do-"
"-Well, how come you're crying in the bathroom over your girl's pregnancy test? You don't want to be the father?"
"..." Sasuke scratched the back of his head nervously, extending out his right hand to Naruto, who winched before cautiously grasping the hand in his.
"Sasuke Uchiha."
"Na...Naruto Uzuamki-Namikaze."
That had been Naruto's pregnancy test the entire time, and not once had he ever thought to ask him about it. He felt so dumb. "What the hell did you do to him?!" Kyuubi growled, whipping around to face his parents, who both averted the gazes. "I should've told the doctors everything when they asked me too!..I actually tried to protect our name for you two, and this is what happens! You deserve to be in jail!-"
"-And what about you Uzumaki boy?" Everyone whipped around and stared at Fuagku incredulously, his damning eyes following upon Kyuubi who scoffed at him. "If Itachi dies, wouldn't that be your fault, meaning you'd go straight to hell-"
"-Fugaku, dear don't-"
"-Mikoto...I'll deal with you later. My son is the reason I'm here now." He retorted, shoving his hands into his pockets and he pursed his lips. "Tobi, I'll also deal with you as well-"
"-Brother, let me explain-"
"-Enough said. I only wish to see my son." He stated nonchalantly, stalking down the hallway only to arch an eyebrow as several officers surrounded him suddenly.
"Fugaku Uchiha, we have a warrant out for your arrest-"
"-What why?!" Mikoto exclaimed, pulling away from Tobi who watched in shock.
"He is to be questioned ma'am. Apparently, a few weeks ago, Fugaku forced a 16-year-old by the name of Naruto Uzumaki-Namikaze to have sexual relations with him...The boy has taken a pregnancy test and is proven to be pregnant by Fugaku Uchiha. The doctor has given all the information he has-"
"-Which means since he was under the care of both parents during the time of the incident, DSS has decided to take the boy and send him to more responsible adults." Another officer stated. Sasuke gawked at Fugaku, his onyx eyes widening at the sight of his father being taken away, while Mikoto collapsed into Tobi's arms and wept. Minato and Kushina rushed away not wanting to talk to anyone at the moment, leaving Kyuubi to stare absent mindedly at Sasuke.
"Your father...raped Naruto?" He backed away cautiously, shaking his head languidly as Sasuke tried to explain everything to him.
"This is the first time I've heard this as well, Kyuubi. He didn't tell me who it was-"
"-So you knew?!" Kyuubi snarled, abruptly slamming his fist against Sasuke's jaw. The raven fell to the floor, winching in pain as Tobi held the infuriated red-head away from him. "I asked you if you knew anything about what could've happened to Naruto?!...YOU SAID YOU DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING!" Kyuubi yelled, tears streaming from his eyes. "My brother...You could've told me, and my...my brother wouldn't have had to go through this!-"
"-I didn't know my father did anything with him-"
"-You knew! Sasuke you knew and you didn't tell me!" Kyuubi snatched his arms free from Tobi, glaring daggers at the raven before him. "Stay away from Naruto, Sasuke...and stay away from me! I...I can't believe this shit!" He slammed his fist against the plain white wall, his eyes hardening as the doctor came towards him.
"Mr. Uzumaki." The red-head nodded his head to assure the doctor that he was talking to the right person. "Naruto, is in critical condition, the blade pierced an important artery and my men are trying all they can to close it-"
"-What about the baby?" He inquired nervously, noticing the doctor as he shuffled his weight on both heels.
"I'm sorry, but blade cut the embryonic sack, which caused Naruto's blood from the ruptured artery to spill into the womb and drowned the child." Kyuubi shook his head, while Mikoto covered her mouth in shock. Everything that happened tonight, was all due to minor mistakes that everyone made, but decided to ignored only to see that the problem had now escalated. "However, Itachi is doing fine and can now be taken home." Kyuubi scoffed and tossed the keys to the black Bugatti into Sasuke's lap, at which his damning gaze made the raven shutter in fear.
"You take him home. I'll stay here with Naruto-"
"-Kyuubi, I truly apologize for what my fat-"
"-Just leave Sasuke, it's over now." He retorted over his shoulder, while disappearing down the hallway with the doctor, leaving all 3 Uchihas to deal with the shame.
