(Here we go guys.)

After a day of traveling squad seven had finally returned home to Konoha ready to give the full on details to the Hokage, "You think the old man's gonna believe us being able to take on a swordsman from Kiri?" Raph asked.

"Well we'll let Kakashi do the talking, he might believe him." Leo replied.

"Very true." Sasuke agreed.

Soon enough they reached the administration building and entered the Hokage's office, where Sarutobi was at his desk with Master Splinter at his side who appeared to have been in a conversation with the old man, "Father?" the turtles and Naruto asked.

"Welcome home, my sons." Splinter greeted them.

"Judging by your return the mission was a success Kakashi?" Sarutobi asked.

"Yes Hokage-sama. However there were a few minor details left out of the mission." Kakashi explained.

"Oh, such as?" Sarutobi asked.

"Well Tazuna was being targeted by nuke-nin from Kiri." Kakashi explained.

"Nukenin from Kiri?" Sarutobi almost had a heart attack.

"Yes, two of them before were the Oni brothers, and the second was Momochi Zabuza of the Seven Swordsmen." Kakashi explained.

"What?" Sarutobi shouted, "Four innocent genin fresh out of the academy dragged into a mission involving one of Kiri's most brutal of ninja?"

"Hey we're alive aren't we?" Himeko asked.

"Lord Hokage let me explain the full details." Kakashi stepped in to explain everything.

Sarutobi calmed down as he and Splinter listened to the complete details of the mission squad seven took part in. Sarutobi felt a bit more relaxed but concerned with the safety of Naruto and his squad, same as Splinter and his sons, "Very well. This mission shall be registered as B-rank, and you will all be given additional pay, congratulations."

"You've all done well my sons." Splinter added.

"Well squad seven seeing as how rough it's been for you you're all free until further notice." Sarutobi told squad seven.

"Hai!" They all replied and were leaving, but before Naruto and the turtles could leave Splinter spoke up.

"My sons, I wish to show you all something I discovered while you were away."

"What is it sensei?" Donny asked.

"Come my sons, I will show you." Splinter said leading them out.

"And Naruto, a while later I want you to come back here. There are matters I wish to discuss with you." Sarutobi ordered Naruto.

"Sure thing, Jiji." Naruto replied as he headed off with his father and his brothers.

Splinter was leading his sons through the village into a forest area, "Sensei where are you taking us?" Leo asked.

"We're already here my son." Splinter said leading them into an open area.

"Where's here?" Mikey asked looking around seeing nothing but forest.

"Yeah ain't nothing around but forest." Raph said.

"Do not be fooled by your eyes my son. After all some things we see aren't always what they appear." Splinter said grabbing a handle in he ground and lifts it up revealing a trapdoor with stairs leading underground.

"Whoa, creepy." Mikey gasped.

"Where does this go?" Naruto asked.

"Follow me and all will be said." Splinter says leading them down the trapdoor.

The turtles and Naruto followed Splinter down the stairs leading into an underground compound which led them to a pair of doors that when opened revealed a training dojo designed similar to the turtles two last lairs, with open space for training, practice dummies and equipment set up, and around the corner was a pool, "What is this place?" Donny asked.

"This was the old training ground my master and the Ancient one set up during their stay in Konoha." Splinter explained.

"And it comes with a pool!" Mikey cheered while rushing to it, "Geronimo!" he dove into the water.

"This place is incredible sensei, how did you find it?" Leo asked while looking around.

"While you were away I decided to take a stroll around the forest of the village, and stumbled upon the training grounds by accident," Splinter explained, "Which I am glad I did."

"Wow, this place is enormous." Raph said taking a look around.

"I believe while we're here we shall instead use this as our home." Splinter said.

"Good thing. I was getting cramped in Naruto's apartment." Mikey said as he came out of the water.

"And me sensei?" Naruto asked Splinter about what he can do.

"You are also welcome to live here with us Naruto." He answered.

"Arigato sensei." Naruto smiled.

"And more good news is I've sent a letter to Casey and April about sending some of our belongings here to the village." Splinter added.

"All right! I've been missing working with high technological devices." Donny said.

"You would." Raph added.

"Hey Naruto, shouldn't you go talk to the Hokage now?" Leo asked reminding him of Sarutobi wishing to talk to him.

"Oh you're right. I'll catch you all later." Naruto rushed off and out of the lair.

"Wonder what the old man wants with Naruto?" Mikey asked.

Splinter just smiled which the turtles noticed making them wonder, "Sensei do you know why?" Raph asked.

"You'll find out." Splinter answered.

Naruto headed back to the administration building and entered the Hokage's office where the old man was still at his desk, "Naruto good to see you made it back on time." Sarutobi said.

"Yeah-yeah I know Jiji, now what'd you need me for?" Naruto asked wanting him to cut to the chase.

"Well Naruto Splinter's already told me about you being aware of Kyubi inside of you long before the incident with Mizuki." Sarutobi explained.

"Yup."

"Well I think it's time you knew the truth about the Kyubi incident," Sarutobi explained, "Not only did the Yondaime seal it away inside you he sealed it inside his own flesh and blood."

"Flesh and blood?" Naruto wondered until he put two and two together, "Wait so you mean the Yondaime?"

"Yes Naruto Minato Namikaze the Yondaime Hokage is your father." Sarutobi answered.

Naruto looked frozen for a minute before going into an outburst, "WHY WOULD MY OWN DAD SEAL A MONSTER IN HIS OWN SON!"

"Ease up Naruto." Kyubi said in his thoughts.

"You knew he was my dad didn't you?" Naruto asked Kyubi.

"No!" Kyubi protested denying it.

"Naruto calm down, and try to put yourself in your father's position," Sarutobi ordered him, "Do you think he would've just sacrificed any other child in the village?"

Naruto thought about that and started realizing how he probably wouldn't do such a thing, "Well it wouldn't be fair for him to just take someone else's child and use them as a sacrifice."

"Yes. Plus Minato felt only you would one day be able to control the Kyubi's power," Sarutobi added, "He felt it was necessary for a father to believe in his child."

Naruto raised a brow at that, "Dad believed in me?"

"Yes Naruto, but you have every right to be angry at him. He honestly wished that you were seen as a hero, but these people are closed-minded and are blinded by it all." Sarutobi said in guilt.

Naruto scowled knowing these people have truly done him wrong for something he had no control over. But then couldn't help but smile knowing that his father truly trusted the safety of Konoha in him when sealing Kyubi inside him, "Dad really did care about me?" Naruto asked.

"He most certainly did," Sarutobi nodded, "But now I have someone else I want you to meet."

"Who?" Naruto asked concerned as to who else he needs to see.

Then a knock was heard at the door and they looked at the door, "You may come in now." Sarutobi told the person behind the door.

The door opens up and entering was a beautiful woman with long red hair, violet eyes, pale skin, wearing a blue zipped short sleeved shirt, red shinobi pants, and shinobi sandals, "Thank you Hokage-sama." The woman said.

Naruto looked in surprised at this woman, 'She's beautiful.' He thought.

The woman's gaze finally fell upon Naruto, "Oh my, Sarutobi is that my?" she asked.

"Yes my dear, he is Naruto." Sarutobi said nodding with a smile.

The woman's eyes swelled up with tears while Naruto was confused as hell as to why this woman was crying. Then to his unsuspecting shock she ran from the doorway and pulled Naruto into a hug and cried into his shoulder, "Is something wrong?" Naruto asked the woman not sure what to do.

"Naruto, oh my sweet baby! I never thought I'd see you again?" the woman cried.

"You know me?" Naruto asked her and looked to the Hokage.

"Naruto this is Kushina Uzumaki." Sarutobi introduced.

Naruto gasped hearing the last name, "Uzumaki, but that would mean?"

"Yes Naruto, this is your mother." Sarutobi answered.

Naruto's eyes widened and looked at the woman, "My mom?"

Kushina lifted her face up to look at Naruto's face, "Yes sweetie, I am your mother."

Naruto looked at her as his eyes started watering up, "Where were you all this time?" he cried.

"Naruto," Sarutobi gets his attention, "While Splinter was out on his walk not only had he discovered Yoshi's old training ground, but he had discovered my old rival Danzo and his Root division had captured Kushina the night you were born."

"WHAT?" Naruto shouted.

"Yes, he had his Anbu claim that Kushina committed suicide after hearing about Minato," Sarutobi explained. "He's kept her hidden in the Root compound since then using various seals and counters to keep anyone in the village from detecting her."

"You mean you've been a prisoner ever since my birth?" Naruto asked Kushina.

"Yes honey. I wanted to be with you when your father sacrificed himself. But Danzo and his Root squad abducted me from the hospital and locked me up." Kushina explained in sadness.

Naruto's eyes firmed so tight veins started to grow, "WHERE IS THIS DANZO?! SO HELP ME I'LL KILL HIM AND LEAVE NOTHING LEFT!" he screamed.

"Naruto calm down!" Sarutobi orders him and Naruto overpowered by the order subsided, "To answer your question, I'm afraid he's gone back into hiding. I still have numerous of my selected Anbu trying to find him."

Naruto frowned hoping that one day he'll meet Danzo personally and dispose of him for what he's done to his mother. Naruto started to cry and buried himself in his mother's embrace. Kushina hugged her son knowing he has the right to be sad, "It's ok son, it's ok." She whispered softly.

Half an hour later, back in the training temple, the turtles had just finished moving various things from Naruto's old apartment into the compound, "That just about does it." Donny said as Raph and Leo set a sofa down.

"Whew about time." Raph said as he plopped onto the couch he just sat down.

"Hey guys, I'm back!" Naruto called out as he entered.

"Hey Naruto, what took ya so long?" Mikey asked as he skateboarded by.

"Sorry I'm late guys, but I want you all to meet someone." Naruto said standing aside as Kushina entered the place.

"Whoa, who is that?" Raph asked.

"Whoever she is she's bodacious." Mikey replied.

"Guys I'd like you all to meet my mother Kushina." Naruto introduced them.

"Your mother?" the turtles gasped.

"Hai." Naruto nodded as Kushina approached them.

"Nice to meet you all. I've heard so much about all of you from my son and your sensei." Kushina said looking at each of the turtles, "Leonardo," She said causing Leo to nod. "Michelangelo," Mikey gave a thumb's up. "Donatello," Donny smiled. "And Raphael." Raph smirked.

"We welcome you to our humble home, Kushina." Splinter bowed his head.

"Arigato Splinter," Kushina smiled. "And once again I thank you for looking after my son after these many years."

"Always a pleasure my dear." Splinter answered.

"Well guys looks like my mom's here to stay with us, is that ok?" Naruto asked.

"Of course it is. Any family of yours is always welcomed with us." Leo admitted.

"Yeah welcome to the family." Mikey said to Kushina who giggled at his enthusiasm.

"Arigato, everyone." Kushina thanked them knowing that she's finally going to be the mother she waited years to be.

(And there you go.)
