Idea: Minato is the young son of Kyuubi, when he is almost too young to remember, Kyuubi leaves him in the Village of Konoha where he grows powerful quickly. Minato doesn't remember that he is even a demon, much less who his father is. Years later when Madara attacks the village, Father and Son are pitted against each other in a desperate battle. Once the son manages to wrest control of his Father from Madara, The Kyuubi stops attacking.

Summary: Minato has always suspected that he wasn't an orphan, no matter what everyone else says, he just knows that his parents are out there. He has vague memories but nothing that would lead anyone anywhere. He's in for a big surprise.

Warnings: Het, OOCness, OCs

Disclaimer: Why does everyone assume I own them? I don't!

Title: Kyuubi's Son

(Minato's Plan)

Minato pushed Kushina away and then rolled. He should have known that an attack would happen… Then, something landed on top of him. He froze, feeling a blade brush almost gently against the skin of his neck. The hand gripping his hair was all too familiar…

"You…" he breathed wincing in pain as his hair was pulled sharply. It was indeed Hiyoku, "You've lost, attacking me where Papa can see…"

"It won't matter…" Hiyoku hissed in his ear menacingly. "He'll never get to you fast enough."

Minato winced, almost snorting in amusement, right… He looked at his mate from the corner of his eye and saw that he had been the only one targeted tonight, she was free. Minato felt himself being pulled up by his hair, it hurt!

Minato did his best to ignore the pain as he kept eye contact with Kushina, moving his hands as slowly as possible until he was clasping them in front of his chest, then, he started signing to her, 'You can't really help me, but I've got a plan. You need to get my father.'

Kushina swallowed, nodding. Since the communication had been completely silent the only ones who hadn't missed it had been their teams from Konoha. She turned, relaying the message to Mikoto, who was much farther away and could reach Kyuubi faster, with better results.

Mikoto nodded once to show that she knew what she had to do and slipped through the crowd to where Minato's parents were waiting with bated breath for something to happen. "Kyuubi-sama," she whispered urgently.

Kyuubi turned to her curiously, "What is it?"

"Someone is threatening your son," she replied, her voice staying quiet, "He says he's got a plan but…"

"But what?" Kybi asked in concern, her only child was being threatened, again!

"I'm not sure whatever it is will work…" Mikoto replied as she turned back to watch the confrontation. She too was worried about Minato; he was her mate's best friend.

"But who would…" Kyuubi started to ask.

"It's Hiyoku!" Shippou told him, "The one who would have been queen had you not met Kybi-sama…"

Kyuubi's eyes widened, then they narrowed and he growled, "So… she thinks that I would choose her to carry my new heir if she killed my only son?" he snarled almost silently, "Well, she's got another thing coming then!"

Kybi nodded, "Indeed, why would you choose the one to murder your child?" She turned to him, "Would you like for me to be checked by the medics? I know they said that we should avoid having more kits…"

"You may if you wish to my love," Kyuubi replied, "But first, let's see what Minato has in mind."

On the other side of the ballroom, Minato was thankful that his father had been able to get rid of whatever was blocking his sealing ability; he reached up and gripped the sword at his neck, slitting his palm hard enough to bleed. 'Please let this work…' Minato prayed.

He let go of the sword slowly and pulled his hand away, he carefully dipped his fingers into the wound; he'd only get one chance before Papa would jump in so he had to make it count!

He knew exactly what he was going to do too; he let several drops of blood fall to the floor, and then flung the rest into her eyes, summoning his father to his side. Minato really hoped that he's been able to blind her!

Minato landed next to Kushina as the smoke cleared and Kyuubi appeared between them and Hiyoku. He panted quietly as he waited for something to happen.

Kyuubi snarled as he came face to face with the one that had been trying extremely hard to kill his son since he was born. "You…"

Hiyoku blushed; her goal was so close… "Yes me, what else did you expect, Kyuubi-kun?" she asked, dragging out his Title in what was supposed to be a seductive tone.

Minato grimaced from behind his father. Did that deranged woman really think that his father, the ruler of all demons, would fall for that?

Kyuubi gave her a disgusted look. "I will never choose you to carry anything for me. Especially my next heir should my son die!"

Hiyoku's eyes widened, she couldn't believe what he was saying! Her Beloved's eyes were glowing darkly, brilliant crimson to a bloody red that promised pain and a long, slow death. She backed up, "N-now K-Kyuubi-kun…"

Kyuubi's clawed hand shot out his fingers closing around her wrist, "You are not leaving here alive…"

Hiyoku's eyes widened more as Kyuubi began to squeeze her throat. The color drained from her face as she realized just how badly she had miscalculated. She had, very briefly, considered trying to get close to Kyuubi by endearing herself to his son but had discarded the idea. Maybe she should have used it instead…

She could still see the young prince over his father's shoulders, being held by a girl that could only be his mate, glaring up at her as she was held off her feet by the neck. "I told you didn't I?" his eyes seemed to say, "I told you, but you never listened, and now you will die."

Minato collapsed against Kushina tiredly.

"Are you ok Minato?" Kushina asked in concern.

"Yeah, I think so," Minato breathed, "Just strangely tired."

Kyuubi looked over his shoulder at his young son, "Why don't you both retire for the night?"

"…Yes Papa, that's a very good idea." Minato replied quietly, head bowed, "What do you think Kushi-hime?" he asked, looking up at her, eyes slightly dazed.

Kushina nodded, "Do you need any help?"

"Just a little bit I think, Otohime," Minato replied, with a sigh, "Will you help me?"

"Always Minato-kun," Kushina replied with a blush. She helped Minato back to their table.

"I'd pull out your chair for you but I'm too tired," Minato apologized as he sat down, his tail winding around her waist, pulling her into his lap.

"I know Minato," Kushina replied as she cuddled into his arms. "Maybe you should retire for the night…"

"Just me?" Minato asked curiously, "What about you? Just watching her nearly killing me must have been traumatic…" he nuzzled her throat lovingly.

Kushina blushed brightly, "But…"

Kybi leaned over to speak with them quietly, "Since you are his mate Kushina, Shina-san sent servants out to collect your things from your hotel room. You will be staying with us until it is time for Minato to return to Konoha." She explained, "But I expect him to keep his hands to himself until your Mating Night," she shot Minato a stern look.

Minato blushed as he pulled Kushina closer hiding his face in her hair, "Mama…"

Kybi giggled, "Not to worry~! You'll find Kushina-chan's things in your rooms Minato."

Minato's cheeks darkened, "Can we be excused then please?"

"Go to bed you two," Kybi replied.

Minato nodded, "Yes Mama."

They got up and Minato led Kushina back to what was now their rooms. Minato yawned as he opened the door, "After you dear."

"Thank you Minato," Kushina replied as she entered the sitting room. "Wow, how many rooms do you have?"

"Several," Minato replied as he closed the door behind him. Minato's sitting room was white, the walls, the furniture, the floor, all of it was white. It wasn't actually that large a room, but it was the same size as their living room in their home back in Konoha.

"What's with all the white Minato?" Kushina asked when she was finished looking around several moments later.

"White is a sign of purity," Minato replied.
