Naruto's POV.

That lemonade was amazing. Honestly just the thing I needed after training. My excitement level maximizes as I think back to training. I was just trained by The Fourth Hokage. Wait until I tell everyone in my class. The look on their faces will be priceless! And when I show off my new skills, I'll probably get Sasuke's mouth to hang open. Smiling at the thought I look up at the man walking beside me.

Minato is pretty tall and when I look up he looks down and smiles at me. I avert my gaze and stare back at the road. Just walking around with the Fourth Hokage makes all the people in the village aver their gaze. They don't give me that look of pure disgust, they just mind their own business. It feels so good not to be judged at every step I take.

Minato leads me into this big building, and into a large room. There is only one chair in the middle and the rest of the room is barren. A man walks in a few seconds later and greets us.

"Minato, good to see you. Hey, Naruto how have you been?" He asks patting my head. I cower a bit and scoot a little behind Minato. How does he know who I am? I never met him before.

The man chuckles and crouches down.

"I'm not that scary come on." He says putting on a fake sad face. He stands up and him and Minato discuss something quietly while I look around. Honestly what is going to happen here? I thought this was just going to be a doctor's check up…it looks more like an interrogation. The man moves away from Minato and walks over to the chair giving us a thumbs up.

"Whenever you're ready I'll start."

Minato nods at him and then turns around. Bending down so that we're at eye level he puts a hand on my shoulder.

"Don't be too scared Naruto. This man is a professional. He's just going to see if he can find some lost memories in your brain so that you can remember them. Am I making sense?" I nod in response and he continues, "It won't hurt, I promise you, you'll be okay." He smiles and ruffles my hair.

I watch as he leaves the room, resisting every urge to grab onto his cloak and have him drag me out of this place.

Looking over at the man by the chair, I hesitantly take slow steps towards him. He rolls his eyes at my behavior, and before we all know it, I'm sitting in that one little chair, looking around at a deserted rom.

"Just take deep breaths, this won't hurt a bit, I promise…it feels like you're falling asleep!" He says happily. I just nod slowly hoping that what he's saying is true.

The man performs some kind of hand signs and then his hands go on my head. I'm out of consciousness in an instant.

Minato's POV.

I wait for Naruto's results, leaning against the wall outside of the room. What if he comes out and his memory of me comes back? And then all of a sudden we're back at square one, completely avoiding each other.

And what about earlier today? I can't just leave that unnoticed. I'm sure the families of those boys will be completely devastated…and possibly hate Naruto even more now. Gosh, why didn't he just stay home?

The door to the room opens and before I can even ask I feel someone wrap their arms around my torso and squeeze me hard. I look down and see blonde hair. Smiling I crouch down and wrap my arms around him. Inouchi just stands there watching the beautiful scene unfold in front of him.

"I was so scared, but it wasn't really that bad!" Naruto chirps into my shoulder. I smile giving Naruto one last squeeze before letting go.

"I'm glad you found it somewhat enjoyable."

My attention turns to Inouchi. Naruto grabs my hand, holding it firmly as he stands beside me.

"Anything?" I ask. He shakes his head in disappointment and my shoulders slouch.

"I examined every part of his brain, but that one memory you are looking for is nonexistent. Minato, it doesn't seem like the usual seizure affect, it seems that just that one memory in his brain has been completely wiped out. Usually when patients have a seizure or some sort of memory loss, we can still dig it out, but this is just impossible to find. I'm thinking that this is more than just a seizure." He finishes crossing his arms thinking of what could possibly have caused this.

My mind wanders back to what Obito had told me. That this could possibly be done by a shinobi.

"Do you think he could be under the affect of a powerful genjutsu?" I ask.

I can feel Naruto grab onto my cloak, looking down at him I see his eyes fill up with worry.

"What's going on?" He asks, his voice weary.

I give Inouchi a look notifying him to stop the conversation.

"Grown up talk, kiddo." Kiddo? That's a first.

Naruto nods not really sure what to think of "grown up talk."

"Send me a report with all of your finds for today," I look over at Naruto and then back at Inouchi," It'll be easier this way."

"Of course." He replies nodding. "See you later Naruto." He says giving him a warm smile. Naruto cowers behind me and Inouchi sighs defeated.

I chuckle and pat Naruto's head gently.

"See you, Inouchi. Thanks again for today."

And with that we exit the building, and I notice that Naruto isn't really walking straight. He must be exhausted, that "check up" did take a half hour. Before he passes out, I gently pick him up and hold him in my arms. He doesn't even bother to argue, and wraps his arms around my neck. Nuzzling his face into my shoulder I notice that after a few minutes his breathing is even and he's asleep. I hold him tightly making sure that he's comfortable.

I think this is the first time I've held my son in a long time.

After I put Naruto to bed, I retreated back to my office to do some thinking. I left Kakashi in charge of taking care of him, so he should be all right.

I stare at the analysis that Inouchi had sent me. It mentions that there is no sign of Naruto's memory of me, but there is something that stood out to him. There were a few chains, and a huge barrier, around one thing that he couldn't quite describe. But, it could just be his memory of me. But, the only way to get rid of the chains and open up the memory, is to have the one who cast it unbind it.

So, it wasn't a seizure, Naruto was put under a genjutsu by someone. But who? My mind wanders, but nobody comes to mind. The Uchihas and I are all on good terms, so I don't see why they would bother to mess with Naruto, Naruto hasn't been attacked by any enemies for years now…just who could it be, and why? Noticing that I'm not getting anywhere by just thinking I lean back in my chair and sigh. I can't possibly just make an announcement and ask for this person to show himself or herself…from what Obito has told me they have left little traces of their existents.

Sighing I check the time and realize that it is getting late, exactly 11:34 pm. Time to call it a night and head home.

AN: Oh dear, so sorry for the short chapter everyone! I'm really busy with school, and I missed a few days since I caught a really bad cold. Like my nose was so stuffy I BARELY got any sleep at night. *cries* but I'm much better now! :D but I have a ton of schoolwork... boooo... heh but I hope you guys enjoy this chapter. It's not much, just really showing Naruto's condition and that Obito's predictions were correct! It is in fact a genjutsu, who could be the one that cast it? And a lot of you are worried about Naruto not getting punished enough for killing those boys. Don't worry I'm planning on having Minato mention something to him, a little later...possibly next chapter. Also honestly almost 40 follows and only four chapters?! THATS AMAZING OMG THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH. :D I'm really glad you like this story, and hopefully you will continue liking it! Until next chapter, toodles~
