Chapter 10

6 years later

The doors of the Hokage tower opened and there walked out a woman around 26 years old, she has ankle-length, auburn hair, a top knot tied with a dark blue band, and with four bangs at the front. Two bangs are short, with one covering her right eye, and two are long, crossing each other on her chest, just below her chin. Her eyes are light green. She was dressed in a long-sleeved dark blue dress that falls just below her knees. She was Mei Terumi the new Godaime Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village.

Now as the Mizukage she was trying to get Kirigakure new allies to further its regrowth in strength after the dark days of the country since the time of the forth Mizukage. The talks were going well with the Hokage of the Hidden Leaf and a couple more meetings meant for sure there would be a strong alliance between the two countries.

She sighed and smiled sadly at the village, it had been 6 long years since she was last here but still her heart mourned for her loss of the three most important people in her life, she nearly lost a fourth but that person is in a coma. So she is grateful that she is alive but still not the condition that excepted to be in.

Mei looked around the village inhaling and exhaling deeply as she remembers the day clearly.

Flashback 6 years prior 4 days after the attack

"I know that but what am I supposed to do, I have no other options left…besides I'll only be able to seal half the foxes chakra into Naruto while the other half is going into Akiko." Both women paled ghostly white more Mei than Kushina, "I cannot let the fox be revived without a Jinchuurki the balance will be destroyed but with that jutsu I can permanently seal half into Akiko and the other into Naruto to balance it out."

"YOU WILL NOT PUT THAT THING!" She points to the fox, "INSIDE OF MY SON YOU HEAR MINATO NAMKIAZE!"

"I'm sorry Mei…"

"What…"

Minato flashed behind her, "I hope that maybe someday you'll find it in your heart to forgive me for what I'm going to do…"

Before Mei had a chance to speak she felt a sharp pain to the side of her neck. She fell forward to the ground still clinging onto her son; she did not feel the impact though as Minato caught her before she landed.

The last imagine that Mei could see before she gave into the darkness of unconsciousness was Minato smile as he held Naruto in one arm and Akiko in the other. Only one question was her mind before total blackness consumed her…

'Why...'

Mei awoken with a start, she laid on a hospital bed panting heavily as cold sweat ran down her face; she looked frantically around her surroundings. She wiped the sweat off her forehead sitting up on her bed regaining her composure.

"Just a a dream..." she whispered, 'How did I end up here?' Her thought was interrupted when the door to her room opened, in came a doctor around the age of 40 holding a clipboard along with an ANUBU next to him.

"Well. Ms. Terumī you gave us quite a scare when you left the hospital unnoticed we were very worried." He smiled.

Mei did not return the reaction

"How long have I been out cold?" She asked massaging her temples

"4 days after the events of the nine tails." Said the ANUBU

"What four days?"

"Exactly Ma'am, we found you unconscious near the dead bodies of the fourth and his wife."

She paled ghostly white, "Where is my son Naruto Terumī Namikaze?"

Looking up from the clipboard the doctor gave a small sigh, "I don't want to ruin the mood but-"

"WHERE IS MY SON!" She shouted

Noticing the dark aura radiating off from her sent chills down the doctor spine as he swallowed dryly, he stammered as he spoke, "Any…b-baby…under one week o-old d-died…from the deadly cha-chakra of the nine tails..."

Silence

The red head stared blankly loss for words as she processed the information that was given to her she put hands to her face as she began to weep refusing to believe that her son was dead. She shook her head from side to side refusing to believe the message, she already lost Kushina and Minato, now Naruto, what else can go wrong.

"No…no…no, no, no, no, no…." Her body started to tremble, her sobs silent at first then becoming louder making the doctor feel for guilty for what he said

The masked ANUBU came next to her placing his hand on her shoulder, "I'm sorry for your loss the doctors did all they could to revive him but we lost him."

"Get out" she whispered

"What?"

"GET OUT!" She shrieked revealing a darker version of herself, "GET OUT OF MY SIGHT! I DON"T WANT ANYONE NEAR ME ESPECIALLY YOU!"

She then threw the vase that was next to her at the doctor and the patch of flowers that she ripped out of the vase at the ANUBU, while the doctor was nailed by the material, the ANUBU left the room dusting off the petals from his uniform. From all the shouting and screaming and the breaking of objects a couple of nurses came to see the situation.

It took at least six nurses to restrain the hidden mist shinobi from lashing out against them. The six nurses suffered minor injuries from Mei's kicking and screaming, finally the doctor got the needle of sedate.

"Hold her arm still…"

One of the male nurses had difficulty holding her arm down nevertheless the doctor injected her with the sedate calming the enraged the shinobi into unconscious.

"No...No...No…Na-ru-toooooo…"

With those final words that came out of her mouth she asleep in a matter of moments, one last tear sliding off the side of her face.

"Whew…never in thirty years that I have working as a medic…have I witnessed fire like that before, well done go and return to your duties."

They nodded and left to their jobs, the doctor came up to the now peaceful shinobi cover her with sheet up too her chest while taking her pulse. 'She looks so peaceful when she not throwing a fit. It is a shame that a beautiful woman had to give birth to that 'thing'...'

Once again, the ANUBU returned only this time the doctor kneeled before him, "It is done master Danzō the kunoichi from the Hidden Mist Village believes that her son is dead."

The ANUBU removed his mask to reveal a half bandaged man with his right eye covered. "Good" He replied, "If she gains custody of that boy then the plans for overthrowing Hiruzen Sarutobi will be thwarted, that boy who contains the nine tails will be the key to Hiruzen downfall that will lead to my victory as hokage of this village."

Since so many hospitals were filled up to maximum capacity that the area around them had to be the base of much operation. The retired Sandaime looked around the area, to his very core he felt like a failure.

'Many lives were lost 4 days ago…' He sighed with pity as h looked at his fallen village. He was stricken at the sight, many fine shinobi either was losing a limb or was in critical condition due to the Kyūbi attack.

'It can't get worse than this…'

Unfortunately, it did as two ANUBU came to him in a puff of smoke. The old Sandaime motioned them forward as they bowed when they got close.

"Report…"

The one ANUBU with a falcon mask looked at the back of the former Sandaime, "The causalities of village are still in critical condition and the death toll of many continues to rise to unexpectedly in the thousands lord Sandaime…"

"I see…any word about our mysterious hooded figure from last night."

"None, whoever it was left with a clean get away…"

"Hmm…" He was lost in thought when they mention t, 'Was it a spy sent here or was it something else?'

"However… we did manage to uncover one of our fallen comrades under rubble near hotel fire, he told us before blacking out that he did see and manage to communicate with the hooded figure." He said

"What's his condition?"

"One of medical-nin said that he has a few broken ribs, a broken arm, and a dislocated shoulder."

"This one was lucky then since it wasn't fatal, is that all?" The Sandaime did not want to hear more but apparently, they were not done with the mission report.

Now it was the owl masked AUNBU who spoke but this was female, "No lord Sandaime…"

'Figures…' The old man sighed, "Continue…"

"As you already know Minato and Kushina Namikaze are dead."

The retired Sandaime closed his eyes as his heart went to the pit of his stomach, 'The village lost a great leader, and with the Yondaime gone… That makes me once again the hokage of the hidden leaf…But Kushina that's a surprise and tragedy; I figured that at least she would still be alive…'

The owl female AUNBU spoke once again, "That's not all lord Sandaime it appears that both the Yondaime and his wife left behind two children barely four day old; one male with blonde hair and the other female with red hair."

"Do they have names these babies?"

"Yes" The female AUNBU responded, "They are Naruto and Akiko Namikaze. We believe that they maybe brother and sister and…"

"So Kushina had two babies…" The old Sandaime said interrupting the AUNBU female, "Keep them separated I don't want those two near each other at a cost until they are older. I do not want the newborn son and daughter of the Yondaime to fall into enemy hands."

"Yes sir."

"Will be that be all lord Sandaime?"

"For the time being yes and keep an eye on baby Naruto when he's around others."

"Sir?"

"Give him and Akiko to any hospital that hasn't been destroyed so the nurses can keep an eye on them for the time being until I figure out a more preferable solution for the both of them, is that understood?"

He eyed them sternly nevertheless, they understood their mission and nodded leaving the third to his thoughts.

At the Uchiha district walkway two figures a man and a woman are walking down the road talking to each other. Mikoto and Fugaku were exhausted from their battle with the nine tails along with the other clans that battled it, their uniforms for the most part was ripped, the jacket was nearly destroyed to sherds, the pants were ripped and not to mention they were dirty from all the mud, dirt and ash that was in the village.

Mikoto had to tie her hair in bun just to cool her down from sweating so much; Fugaku took his jacket and two layers of clothes off from being overheated so much since fighting with that accursed fox.

"When I get home I taking a long shower." He said

"I know what you mean darling." She latched onto his arm much to her husband annoyance and embarrassment leaning her head on his shoulder

"Mikoto not in public! How many times have we been through this?"

"Aw…come on Fugaku we used to do this a lot when we were teenagers."

"That was then, this is now I'm leader of the Uchiha clan one the most powerful clan in all of Konoha and I refuse to walk around latched on like this!" Mikoto raised an eyebrow as her husband continued, "Beside I have a reputation keep and I don't want that blasted Hyūga, Hiashi looking at me that I've grown soft."

"Men and their pride…" the raven-haired woman sighed as she let her husband go

When they arrived home, Itachi was playing with Sasuke, Mikoto eyes softened as she watched her two-

'Wait a minute where's Jet?' Her brows furrowed in confusion, "Itachi?"

The small boy looked up at his mother, "Yes mother?"

"Where's your brother, Jet?"

"Four days ago uncle Teyaki came by to take him when that sudden chill appeared. I think he said they were going to the weapons store to pick a scroll for Jet and that they were going to be back within the hour or so but they haven't returned since then so I assumed that they went to uncle's house." He said

Mikoto put her hands on her hips, "Young man how many times did I tell you never assume anything but since he is with your uncle than I will check with your aunt after I've rested and washed up."

"Not if I get into that shower first!" Fugaku raced to the bathroom locking himself inside, the raven haired kunoichi rolled her eyes shaking her head.

"Men…ugh!"

Meanwhile aboard the Aquila stationed near the harbor which was a five day trip by foot, an elderly man in his late 50 is seen walking across the deck of the ship; he walks over to the one named Connor who is currently looking over the horizon of the sea.

The elder man stood behind the Native American looking at him from behind with his hands behind his back; from the way Connor was acting, he was very uncomfortable with something for the last few days and he knew he had to say something or else.

"You know you weren't supposed to take the boy from his home Connor that goes against everything that you stood up for and went against." He paused to see what his captain would say but he remained silent, "Connor, what is wrong with you lad? You've been silent ever since you got back from the island."

Inhaling deeply he exhaled just the same without turning, "There are something's that are supposed to be left unsaid Mr. Faulk but from what I saw in that village…it was something indescribable..."

Flashback within a flashback

It was a disaster this village was completely ablaze from all the fire from what Connor could make out of it from a giant nine tailed fox. Still he saw the creature close up, he could feel evil from that creature and knowing better than to get close to it he played it smart stood from afar watching it as it destroyed and rampaged throughout the village.

With all the destruction and fire, it painfully reminded him of his childhood nightmare when his village was burnt to the ground from the white man. He looked around, death was in the air, and many bodies were in the streets, panic and fear filled the air. He dismounted his horse as he looked around. He had a bad feeling in his stomach but he knew the pain that these people were going through as he strode along, passing by destroyed gift shops, houses and weapons stores and market places, he felt pity for these people.

'It's a shame, these people are going to be suffering for a very long time when they rebuild and I know that feeling.'

Connor was lost in his thought that he did not see a hand grab coming out of nowhere latching on to his ankle until the last second. Unsheathing his hidden blades, he looked down at his ankle ready to strike his attacker. He stopped when he saw a bloody mid-aged man with a torn red and white fan on his back protecting something with his body.

"Tasuketekudasai!" He cried

Connor could not make the language he spoke, but he knew it was foreign. The man once again cried out, "Tasuketekudasai!"

Sheathing his hidden blades, the Indian knelt before the man placing a hand on his shoulder, "Sir I do not understand your language…"

Before he spoke more the man, spoke fluent English surprisingly, "Please help me…take the boy to his parents…"

"Where is this boy you speak of, because I don't see him..." The man tried to get up, instead the blacked haired assassin grabbed the man flipping him on his back as gently as he could to reveal a child of three to four years old of age unconscious with blood coming down his forehead. Connor checked for a pulse and was relieved when he found it was going strong.

The elder man grabbed Connor's hand confusing the young assassin as he searched in garb for something. A few seconds later, he pulled out a scroll sealed with the same fan that was on the back of the elder man's robe.

Struggling to breathe the elder man managed to choke out, "Please, send the boy to his parents…*gasp*…he is the second heir to the Uchiha…*gasp*…Clan…"

Studying the scroll he looked at the slowly dying man, "What's in the scroll and what is his name?"

"His name is Jet Long Uchiha and this scroll *gasp*…holds his…t-training…"

"Who are his parents?" he asked

"F-Fugaku and M-Mikoto U-U-Uch-i-ha…" With those final words the elder man died, with two fingers Connor closed his eyes, silently saying a prayer in his Mohawk tongue. He looked at the scroll in his hand and at the boy, 'Uchiha eh? Now why does that name sound familiar?"

Sighing he picked him up cradling the boy in his arms. Connor looked at the young Uchiha; he had black hair with bangs that framed his face, with casual clothes consisting of a navy blue shirt with the Uchiha clan symbol on the back, and black knee-pants. The boy had a gentle look on his face despite the bruises all over his body but nonetheless he did have a bit of a feminine side to him.

Whistling for his horse, the stallion obeyed its master as the young assassin mounted it, right when he was about to take off a shinobi came and blocked his path, "Anata ga doko ni iru migi no yamete!"

Face palming himself he cursed his lack of ability to speak the language he looked at the shinobi in front of him, this particular fellow has long, spiky, black hair and dark eyes. He has a strip of bandage running across the bridge of his nose and a light-colored marking on his chin with a forehead protector. In his hand were two kusari ready to kill.

Once again, it felt like Déjà vu, "Sir I do not understand your language…" he said in hands signs.

The young shinobi narrowed his eyes as he communicated with the assassin via hand sign communication, "Than what are you doing with the boy? Are connected with this incident?"

"No, I am not; I came here because I sensed something very foul in the air, so I followed it here. The old man you see before me is dead as well as he told me told me to bring this boy back to his parents."

"How do I know you're not lying? For I all know you could be the enemy from another village coming here to exploit our village's weakness or worse kidnapped on of our own and use as a weapon!"

"You have my word…"

The spiky haired looked into his eyes; he saw that he was not lying so he nodded, "Alright, I can see that you are not lying through your eyes. I'll take the boy from your hands and be on my way to bring him back to his parents, by the way what the boy's name?"

Before Connor could respond a pieces of a building flew in their mist causing two things one; the horse was spooked and galloped away hurry that Connor could not formally control it due to being one hand short, and two; with all the rubble it pinned the Jounin ninja down to the ground unconscious.

'I hate to run off with a child that belongs to this village but right now, I don't have a choice. I got to get out of here before this village becomes the death of me.'

With those thought in his head Connor held on to the second Uchiha heir tightly as he strode into the forest leaving behind a burning Konoha. As he gallops through the night, a foul roar echoed throughout the land that sent shivers to his very spine.

Flash back end

Just below the deck, the young Uchiha was stirring in his sleep; soon his eyes popped open to reveal frighten black eyes scanning his area, 'What…where…how…' His hands went to his head as he felt a cloth like material around his head.

He uncovered himself from his sheets as he swallowed dryly, "Mama, Papa…" Jet became more frightened as he continued to look at his environment. As he walked across the lower deck, he noticed that there seemed to be many nets hanging from the ceilings, along with it, was many barrels and cylinder looking volcanoes sticking out from what he could tell was a small window.

He noticed as well stock supplies that could at least last for a couple of months but this object that Jet seemed to noticed that it was made entirely out of wood. He heard murmuring from he was tiptoeing, unaware on where he was going he bumped into a person.

Looking from the feet up he saw a man from the back wearing some sort of footwear on his feet with yay high socks with blue pants with a leather belt tied around his waist, with a t-shirt, with a blue vest on with a white bandana wrapped on his head.

The man turns around with his eyes sharp as eagles looks around the area to see who had bumped into him when he looked down at his waist he looked into Jet's terrified eyes, "You little runt! How did you get on this ship?!"

Though he could not understand the man's foreign language, he did understand the tone of his voice and quick as a grasshopper he went underneath the man legs quickly running away from the enraged man.

"Get back here!"

He shouted he then chased after the frighten boy. They ran around in a circle as crew members stopped their work to look at the commotion that was going on, they laughed at the sight of one of the crewmembers chasing the young Uchiha.

"Come now Richard!" One of them mocked, "Surely you can catch this little one or has leaving your old aged finally caught up to you?"

The statement was not pleasant as Richard growled quickening his pace. Jet looked behind him; he saw the angry man catching up to him rapidly. Quickly he looked frantically for something to distract the man or to use against him and out of the corner of his eye was his opportunity.

He quickly sprang for the broom that was lying against the wall pulling it from its resting place unto the floor before disappearing into the upper deck.

Richard too busy being enraged by his anger did not see the broom on the floor and when he took that step, WHACK! The broom nailed him in the forehead breaking his nose in the process paralyzing him for the moment while others howled like hyenas at him.

Panting heavily for air Jet looked back down to see if his pursuer was still behind him, to his relief he was not there. When he took one look out into the environment his heart stopped, what stood before was three pillars of sails with same type of cylinder like objects he saw when he first awoken.

Many men were working carrying large boxes of crates over their shoulder whiles others working on the sails, seagulls flew above his head as he heard them cry out. His nostrils were filled with the smell of salt and sea. Too caught up in the moment he did not see his pursuer behind him until he shouted.

"YOU!"

Quickly he turned his head to see his pursuer with eyes nearly coming out of their sockets he bolted again bumping into many crewmembers. Many protested as they saw the man chasing the child.

"Connor there has to be more than that reason why you took the boy otherwise…"

The shout of yelling and screaming interrupted the elderly man's train of thoughts and both men turned to witness that one of the crewmembers chasing the young Uchiha. Rolling his eyes the assassin unfolded his hands as soon as the boy came running to him.

He quickly grabbed by the stomach with arm as child screamed, "Watashi ga yukō!"

Stooping down to his level Connor kneeled one knee before the boy placing a hand over his shoulder as he calmed him down in a gentle tone, "Be calm no one will hurt you."

"Na-nani?" With tears in his eyes, he wiped it off with the back of his hand. The tone of Connor gave calmed him, sniffling was heard coming from the boy as he began to calm, "Wa ie ni ikitai."

"That right he doesn't speak English." Connor then looked up at his pursuer once he came to them. Jet soon cowered in fear as he went behind the assassin.

"Akuma shiro! Akuma shiro!"

"Ha…ha…ha…Sir I…tried to catch him…b-but i-it seems you have everything under control…"

Rising he grabbed the shirt of the man fixing his attire, "Tell me why were you chasing the boy?"

"He snuck aboard sir…"

"Wrong, Mr. Bastion I brought him here." Connor said sternly, "And if you don't like then you can kindly swapped the deck on your free time as well clean the feces of your shipmates if that what you want for not listening to what I said!"

Richard swallowed dryly as he bowed his head in shame.

"In the meantime Mr. Bastion, get one of the men and go find a one the native of that speaks his language so we can communicate with him." The man bowed before the assassin as he turned leaving while barking in his native tongue at one of the sailors to go him.

Connor then turned his attention back to the little boy stooping down to his level as he looked into his dark sympathetic, confused eyes, "I don't know if you understand me but we are going to get someone to translate for you so you can understand us."

The boy looked confused, "Nani?"

"Trust me…"

Again, a blank stare from Jet.

"Trust…Me…" Connor said again with a little of emphasis with his hands

"T-t-t-tr-ruuah-st-t-t"

"Trust…me…" He said slowly pointing to himself, "I'm…Connor…"

"J-Jet…U-Uchiha…"

Mr. Faulk scratched his white beard as the assassin and the boy interacted limitedly he looked at the young lad for a long time, 'Uchiha…where have I heard that name before…I know I heard it somewhere but where?'
