"Uzu-chan. . . I-I n-ed to mak- the se-l" he couldn't talk properly; the intense pain he was suffering was to much to bare. He wanted more than screamed at the top of his lungs, letting out the pain he was going through, but, he knew that it will be a waste of time and energy. He needed to do the seal, the seal that will protect his son, from him and from any danger.
She nodded; she turned and yelled, "CALL NEJI. WE NEED HIM NOW!"
THIS CHAPTER IS DEDICATED FOR
Everyone, who voted on my poll, thanks.
(I have bad news guys _)
Chapter Ten — the Inevitable Loss
Neji arrived within the seconds, like lighting, he was beside Naruto.
"I'm here Naruto . . . tell me what you want me to do-do you need my blood now-"
Neji was cut by Tsunade, "Neji let him speak, he doesn't have the energy, and therefore we have to listen carefully as he gives us the directions." stupidly, he nodded, calming a little, breathing slowly, and counting up to ten- which calmed him down, ready to listen to Naruto.
Naruto smiled.
He knew Neji was nervous, more than anybody inside the room.
He exhaled, ready to start the jutsu.
His body shaking, he turned his face to Tsunade,
"I'm about to let Kyuubi take my body, he'll control my body; helping with the signs and allowing him to direct you guys, better than me- since my body can't take much. Don't worry, he'll not harm you or do something stupid, I trust him with my life-with my son's life." he whispered, his voice fading the more he talked.
"WHAT! Naruto-YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!" Tsunade protest but it was in vain, as he lifted both hands, making some hand-signs- letting a terrifying scream, as his body started to shake violently.
He yelled, Kyuubi's chakra started to leak, due the intensity the Jutsu was. Seconds later, Naruto's eyes snapped open; blue eyes rolled back, and there, in a mere second, Black ominous eyes were now, taking the place of those beautiful eyes.
Naruto blinked, a couple of times, Kyuubi getting use of Naruto's body.
Tsunade took a step back, afraid of what the outcome. She waited, waiting for Naruto's or Kyuubi's voice to speak.
It was after minutes, that he spoke, voice deep and sinister,
"Tsunade, I'm ready to make the seal; get ready."
Without any warning, Kyuubi did some hand-signs; the speed was incredible, unearthly. He yelled in pain, his right hand on his chest letting the seal covered his body.
Small black kanji letters covered his body, when it finally stop, Kyuubi coughed, the intensity of the jutsu making it hard to breathe.
Tsunade watched in awed expression, she couldn't believe what her eyes were witnessing. She looked to her side, staring at the nurses, hoping that they weren't scared, but, she was surprised to see that all were watching, serious expressions on their faces, calculating every move Naruto did.
Tsunade spoke, her voice stern, "Apparently, he won't need our assistance, only, if anything goes wrong." they nodded, grateful that they won't be needed; this was not as simple, like they said it was.
This was something else, Jutsus that only Naruto knew. Sighing in relief, they all watched Naruto perform the jutsu.
Kyuubi had more strength than Naruto, so he didn't scream or curse as the jutsu' first seal was done.
Since he was in control, more chakra was allowed to flow inside Naruto's body, making the pain less, and Naruto's body wouldn't have to suffer the intense pain later on.
Less of what everyone predicted, Naruto, spoke his voice raspy voice was low and ominous.
"Tsunade, now, you may proceed with the surgery. Naruto will be unconscious at least for hours, since his body is to weak. Eventually, I wake him up, to end the seal."
Tsunade nodded, and calmly walked neat Naruto, calling out her nurses; ready to bring her grandson to this world.
After that, in a blur, Sakura, Hinata and Ino were helping out Tsunade; giving out their chakra, making a jutsu that won't let the blood out and keep Naruto stable.
The rest of the stuff just followed Tsunade's instructions.
Neji, who was standing in the corner of the room; since it was to much to take. Therefore, he left, deciding to go out and wait for any news.
After an hour, Neji who was staring out of the window heard what it seem to be Uzumaki-chan first cry into this world.
Standing, faster than he thought, preparing to go inside and see his baby . . .
But, at that moment, Neji watched how all the ninjas were preparing to fight.
He watched everyone gather outside the hospital, surrounding the perimeter, under and above; every single direction was guarded.
Looking back, he bit his lip, wanting to go see, at least a glimpse of Naruto's baby, but, he knew he needed to go and see what was the situation and the plan.
Dragging his feet, he ran outside the hospital and found Shikamaru, watching the clouds.
Shikamaru turned to face him and said, "Its time." those faithful words were the last words he spoke with the brunet.
He nodded, signing, he went back inside the hospital but this time, he went after Karin.
Spotting the red-hair, he coughed, getting her attention.
Before she even opened her mouth, he cut her off, rudely, but it was necessary.
"I want you to give this to Naruto if anything happens to me. I know he'll survive, but, I know something bad it's going to happen to me, don't ask, I can feel it, and somehow I know I not going to make it. Inside the envelope, is everything Naruto needs to live a life without worries. Please; promise me to watch over him, guide him, advise him on everything he's needs help; be there for him." he finished, with a smile on his face.
"Thank you, Karin."
"Wait-w-hwat are you talking about? You can't leave Naruto alone-he's going to be upset if he finds out that you left him due this stupid misunderstanding-"
The sounds of men yelling stop Karin in mid-sentence.
Both turned to look out of the window, staring at the ninjas as they attacked someone who both didn't know.
"Well, I got to go. Please do what I asked you. . . please, tell Naruto that I loved him, so much that it hurts to leave him alone, but if I don't go, he'll get to him and that, will be the end of everything Naruto did to protect his son. Thank you Karin, good-bye." he flew, breaking the window; joining the rest.
Inside the surgery room, Tsunade was holding the most beautiful baby she has ever seen, even when said baby was cover in blood.
All the girls, smiled, as they all watched in awed at the newest, cutest baby in Konoha.
Uzumaki-chan weighed the normal weigh; his skin color was pale, pink lips and dark-blue hair. The only thing that nobody knew, and desire to see, was his eyes.
The odd thing that happened was that he didn't cry, only when the cold air hit his warm, soft skin; but other than that, he was quiet, cuddling with Tsunade.
Ready to fight on who gets to carry first, they all stopped- when the building started to shake; as loud explosions were the sounds that broke the peaceful scene, after a quiet moment.
"Sakura, take the baby and get him ready to leave. Everyone get ready to perform the seal and heal Naruto."
Rushing, all of them followed Tsunade orders; it was when they were done with Naruto that Tsunade call Kyuubi.
"Alright, in a moment, he'll wake up, feeling pain but he'll continue, okay."
Naruto woke up, screaming in pain, "S-shit!" Naruto groaned, as he remembered what he needed to do. He looked, and spotted Tsunade with a worry expression on her young face.
"D-don' – worry. . . I'll be okay. I'm g-oing to seal the jutsu-" he bit his lip, holding on his scream, feeling pain all over his body.
He took a deep breath, and started to do the hand-signs.
A green light appeared, tracing the symbols, making them glow; sealing the jutsu eternally.
Naruto gulped, trying to speak but it was hard since his throat was dry.
"w-water," he asked, hoarsely.
Ino was the one who aid him, helping him to drink the refreshing water.
Without wasting any more time, he said, "I'm going to teleport us to a secret place."
Tsunade nodded, "Everybody hold hands and don't let go. Sakura get inside the circle and hold on to something." he yelled, whoever was outside, was getting closer to them.
"oh-fuck. . ." Naruto cursed, his insides burning, feeling his body throb in pain.
He closed his eyes, feeling the Kyuubi's chakra leek, helping him to the jutsu; saving everyone from the chaos that was about to hit the hospital.
Everyone blinked, noticing that all were now inside a house, big enough, and saved.
Naruto smiled bitterly at them, feeling exhausted and since he used all his chakra- surpassing his limits; his system refused to work and shut down, right after Tsunade start checking his vitals.
Tsunade gasped, when Naruto just fainted.
She checked him, twice, making sure he was okay.
"Kyuubi was right. His body finally gave up on him, he needs to sleep to recover and heal internally."
She walked over Sakura, who had Naruto's baby in her arms.
"How is the little one?" She asked; smiling warmly, looking down at the angel, her grandson.
"He's fine, but he needs rest. I fed him already with his formula until Naruto wakes up?"
Both were wondering if Naruto was going to breastfeed Uzumaki-chan, but they knew that both needed to wait until said mother decides to wake up from his beauty sleep.
An anbu that suddenly appeared brought them back to the present.
'How the fuck did they found us? Well, no time to ask,'
"Hokage-Sama, the hospital is been attack by some plant-like creatures and, Uchiha Madara as well. Half of the men are down, only Hyuuga-sama team and Nara-Sama's team are alive."
She froze, did he said Madara? There's no way that he Uchiha was here? How could it be?
"Are you sure it was Madara?" she asked,
"Yes. He introduced himself as Uchiha Madara, the one who'll bring back the Uchiha Clan to victory."
She looked back to the sleeping Naruto, biting her lower lip.
"Alright, assemble all the units, distract him; I'll take care of him."
He nodded, and left.
'I don't understand . . . why would Madara want Naruto in the first place? What are his goals? God, this is getting dangerous more than I have thought it'd.
"Alright, Sakura; you'll be in charge, while I go and help the others. Everyone stay here, don't go anywhere and try not to use a large amount of chakra."
"Hai!"
-SasuNaru-
-Hours Before The Attack-
It was afternoon; Zetsu was heading to Konoha; to his regular routine like always.
Using his Mayfly Jutsu, he sneaked into Konoha's tight security (once again) without problems.
Sensing no movements, either from people above him or close by, he headed to the heart of the village- Hokage's Tower.
He frowned, when he felt no movement, deciding to check out the place, he emerged; only to find no a single living person inside the tower.
'Strange,'
He submerged once again and thought,
'Where is everybody? Is not like they knew that I'm here? Okay, where is the second place that I'd definitely find some answers? Hospital.'
Rushing to where he knew the hospital was located, he sped, feeling a strong, powerful chakra coming from hospital.
'Something is happening . . . that's why everybody is here, surrounding the area-wait. Could it be that he brat delivered? Shit, better check it out.'
Zetsu was reaching, when he suddenly, stopped; due a visible barrier that was protecting the whole hospital.
'What the FUCK! What's going on? Why can't I go through the hospital? Is it a barrier? If I keep trying, it could be deadly. . . I've to inform Madara about this; I don't think he'll have problem going through and see what's happening.'
He teleported, amazingly breaking his record; Madara sensing him, knowing he had brought news.
He put down the scrolls, and waited for Zetsu to appear.
"I have bad news. Everyone has gather outside the hospital, some guarding, some inside, but, there's a strong barrier protecting the entire hospital; which block my jutsu and didn't let me in. And last; there's a strong chakra coming inside the building; I've recognized the chakra and is none other than the Kyuubi; Uzumaki Naruto." He finished, he observed the man in front of him, and he shivered, when he looked at him sternly.
"And why the fuck- didn't you try to go in? Didn't you use the Jutsu that I taught you?" He harshly said, his eyes turning crimson.
"Look; I didn't because I knew that that barrier wasn't a regular one. Besides, you're the one who knows all about S-rank Jutsus- because trust me, that wasn't a normal one."
"Fine. Let's go and check it out. We'd probably face them and we might have to fight, so get ready. I have a feeling that the baby was born so; get ready because we're taking both today."
-SasuNaru-
"You were right," Madara hissed.
Both had arrived to the scene, only to stop due the barrier guarding the hospital.
"So, what are we suppose to do?" Zetsu asked.
He couldn't come up with a good plan, he had tried all the jutsu's he knew, well, except the jutsu Madara taught him, but, it was dangerous.
'Well, he's the one who actually wants to go and get his brat, I'll let him think and come up with a plan.'
"We're going to face them, kill every one who gets in our way; and retrieve Naruto and his son."
Honestly, Madara had the feeling that if they didn't hurry and get inside the hospital, he'll loose the blond forever. So without wasting any more time; he decided to do what he's instincts told him, kill them, and get the blond by force.
"Good idea."
"Let's go."
Both walked down the path that led to the hospital, their steps were slow.
Reaching their destination, the hospital, they stopped and smirked.
"Prepare to die in the hands of the true Uchiha Heir, Uchiha Madara." he yelled, laughing insanely.
After having a good laugh, he turn to face his partner, both individuals looked at each other, and nodded.
Rushing, at an inhuman speed, killing every single shinobi who tried to get a hit, but sadly, they were to slow and died trying.
Screams of pain, was the terrifying soundtrack that kept the duo fighting, enlighten with the wonderful sounds a human being could make.
So far, they hadn't got a scratch or a hit; both continued to kill, many ninjas until Madara finally reach the entrance. . .
One step closer to his victory. . .
To caught up with his own thoughts, that he missed the shadow coming at him, aiming at him.
It's been over a century that he has received a punch.
And frankly, it hurt like hell.
Crimson eyes turned to see the son of a bitch who dared to hit him, and surprise written in his features, when he saw none other than Hyuuga Neji.
He frowned.
"Hyuuga? . . . It's a pleasure to finally meet you, in person." he said, eyes staring at him, promising a painful death.
"What are you doing here, and what do you want with Naruto?" Neji yelled, glaring daggers at the Uchiha.
Said Uchiha smirked evilly, "I'm taking him with me."
"OVER MY DEAD BODY, UCHIHA!" without a strategy, he charged.
"I've no problem with that," he replied evilly.
He knew he didn't have enough time to play around with Hyuuga, he wanted, but couldn't; so, with his sword, he charged, his sword going through Neji . . .
Killing the brunet instantly.
Neji, coughed blood, feeling the sword go deeper, feeling Mandara hands inside his body- twisting his inside just for the fun.
'Bastard . . . rushing to my death- wonderful.'
He yelled, as Madara took his hand, spilling more blood on the floor.
Neji collapsed, landing on the bloody floor, facing his attacker.
'Naruto . . . I'm sorry- I couldn't protect you, I-I couldn't protect your baby-our baby." Neji coughed, his vision started to fade, slowly, his heart began to beat slowly; he was dying slowly, painfully.
'Hmph. guess I won't get to see Uzumaki-Chan . . . P-please forgive me, my love-but I promise that even in the other world- I'd take care of both of you . . . Good Bye.'
Looking at the sky, for the last time, which reminded him of Naruto's beautiful eyes-, he smiled; thinking of certain blond, as short, enjoyable memories running inside his head.
His heart beat one last time, eyes remain open, but, as he welcomed death- his eyes began to close- with a breathtaking smile; dying happily as his last thoughts were about his love, his life-Uzumaki Naruto.
Madara just stared at the pathetic Hyuuga; he hn'ed, and walked inside the hospital.
'Stupid Hyuuga because of him Naruto escaped . . . I can't sense his chakra at all.'
Trying to remain calm, he search one last time, looking every corner of the hospital but, sadly Naruto was gone.
He let out an animalistic roar, letting the anger out, red eyes stared at the floor- thinking; possible places the blond could've run to.
"FUCK! HE'S NOT IN THIS FUCKIN VILLAGE!" Madara roared; kicking a corpse in the process.
"What do you mean . . . he's not inside the village?" Zetsu asked.
"YES, HE'S GONE! LET'S GO AND FIND HIM-HE'S COULD BE NEAR THE VILLAGE!" he ran straight to the entrance, Sharingan activated, watching everywhere, trying to spot a spark of chakra- hoping to be Naruto's.
'God-damn, there's no way I'm letting him ran away from me, when I know he has my kid. . . NEVER! YOU'RE COMING WITH ME UZUMAKI-NARUTO!'
With every turn, village-his anger increased, to the point of destroying half of the village he was currently in.
Unfortunate for him, no sign of Naruto's chakra anywhere he looked. They had spent days that slowly turned into months looking, traveling in high speed through forest, rivers, seas- and nothing.
"FUCK! THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING! WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU, KYUUBI!"
"I think we should wait. He probably hiding, using some sort of jutsu that we don't know which is helping him- hiding himself from us." Zetsu tiredly said.
It would be to stupid to said that he was tired, traveling at top speed, in every village- is not easy as it sounds. So, trying not to anger the Uchiha even more, he played his cards, carefully.
"So, you think I should, let him go, and wait-until he decides to show up?" he asked; his voice vindictively malicious.
Even Zetsu, a creature-like being, shivered; hearing the Uchiha talk, the killer intent that radiated from him was enough to paralyze him.
"I think it's the wisest thing to do, since we had looked everywhere you had suggested, and still, not even a clue or a chakra signal." surprisingly, his voice was firm, deep; totally the opposite of what he had predicted.
He knew that it was pointless, but, just the thought that the blond got away . . . he can't stand there, waiting for said blond to come out to play.
'Kami, I guess I just have to wait for said blond to come out. . . he can't keep himself lock up. . . he'll eventually will need to come out, and I, will be ready to capture him.'
"You're right. While we both rest; I want you to put a clone in each village; we'll wait for him to come out and then, we'll attack and capture both." He said, and smirked when he heard Zetsu cursed.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever . . ." Zetsu murmured, joining his 'boss' to the hide-out.
-SasuNaru-
Blood, corpses and the smell of death was the repulsive scene that Tsunade and the others found, as they all arrived to the hospital.
"Oh my," Honey eyes widened; staring at the bloody scene in front of her.
She couldn't breathe properly- staring at the familiar faces, now dead- she let a small moan, clutching her heart in pain.
Everyone were paralyze as they all stare the bloody scene.
After a couple minutes, the med-Nins arrived at the crime scene.
Unlike the rest, they all had pokerfaced expressions- as they made their way through the corpses and tried to find if anyone was still alive.
Alas, the search was over, she looked up only to confirming her theory, as they all had their heads down; mourning the loss souls.
She closed her eyes, feeling a tears running down her cheeks.
She bit her lower lip, as she heard total silence- it was suffocating her, she needed to leave the scene.
Ready to leave everything to the captains in duty, she stood up; wiping the fresh tears in the process, but someone stopped her.
"Tsunade-Sama . . . we will like to have a word with you, if is possible, of course."
Tsunade nodded, she rose slowly, with a black expression.
'God, what could be worst than this?' She thought.
"One of the survivors witness the battle between Madara and Hyuuga Neji." he stopped for a moment, letting her complete the awful news for him.
'Oh no, please-NNOOoo!'
Watching her eyes widened, he looked down and stay quiet.
"NO! DID YOU CHECK TWICE? NO, RIGHT?-"
The man looked up, eyes softened as he looked at the Hokage, tears running down, refusing to accept the death of Hyuuga Neji.
"Tsunade-Sama, we found his body, cold; lifeless- it was indeed Hyuuga Neji."
She yell, letting out her emotions, the loss of someone dear to her; the immense pain that this will cause to Naruto. How will Naruto act, when he finds that his lover, soon-to-be-husband was now, dead-by the hands of the same one who's planning to take away his baby? Life was not fair! Oh-h god, Neji-he's gone. She wished this was just a stupid genjutsu, and everything was going to be alright.
Sadly, life will never be the same-without Neji in their lives.
To be honest, she was starting to love the brunet-deeply, since he had promised to take care of Naruto, love him- and that, was all it took for her to love the kid and see him in a different way.
'SHIT! WHY? KAMI-WHY? YOU TOOK AWAY THE ONLY SANE PERSON WHO HAD CHANGE NARUTO'S MISERABLE LIFE. . . I don't think- NO! I'LL BE THERE FOR HIM!'
She bit her lip, tears had stopped, and all her strength was gone, thus she remained still.
In a trance-mode, she spoke softly, "Prepare everything for the ceremony."
-SasuNaru-
-Four Days Later-
It was morning.
The sun shone brightly, the sky was blue- with fluffy clouds.
Even birds had made their presence; singing their tunes, beautifully.
Over all, everything looked and felt-right.
And this is how; the young mother woke up from his comatose state.
Blue eyes snapped open, as he rose into a sitting position, wincing at the pain that went through his spine and stomach.
He looked around, immediately spotting Sakura-sleeping calmly in the nearest chair near a small crib.
And then, he heard it- the most beautiful sound coming from the crib . . .
'Uzumaki-chan,' he thought happily, tears threatening to go.
Smiling warmly, he moved a little bit to the edge of the bed-trying to see his baby.
Sakura's ninja skills were better than he had expected, because the moment he took his first step, the pink-haired girl rose faster than anyone he knew, holding a kunai in her hands; looking around trying to detect any danger.
He raised an eyebrow at her, but ignored it.
"Sakura-chan?" his said hoarsely.
His voice brought back his friend, she looked at him, previous danger long forgotten; her expression softened- she smiled at him.
"Naruto-Kun . . . you're awake." she smiled bitterly.
She couldn't look at him and pretend that nothing was wrong. She didn't know how she would be able to tell her friend that his lover died, protecting him and his baby from Madara.
She bit her lip, as she felt freshly tears running down her cheek.
It was after a long moment of silence that said blond dared to look at her friend- only to regret it due to the awful state she was in, crying, pale and dark rings under her eyes; obviously from the lack of sleep.
The moment he looked at her, he knew something bad had happened.
The way she looked at him, her tone- something terrible had happened while he was in coma, but what?
Gulping, breathing slowly, preparing to ask and ready to hear the bad news.
"W-what's wrong Sakura?" he stuttered. Silence was her response, ready to yell at the girl he stopped when she finally cried, her hands covering her face; crying to heart out.
'What's going on? Did my baby died? GOD NO! PLEASE TELL ME THAT MY BABY IS ALRIGHT-GOD PLEASE!'
"Sakura is Uzumaki-chan alright? What happened? SAKURA? TELL ME GODDAMITT!"
she looked up- eyes red from all the crying, she opened her mouth, letting the news that shocked him, froze him and kill him, again.
"N-Neji . . . fought with Madara, he-he protected you til the end- and-an-n-d h-he is dead."
'STUPID HUMAN-YOU SHOULD'VE KEPT YOUR MOUTH SHUT! KID-KID CALM DOWN, NARUTO CALM DOWN!' Kyuubi yelled, feeling his kid heart's beat faster.
Blue eyes widened, 'no, no-this is a sick joke . . . it can't be. . . NO! HE'S NOT DEAD!'
"Sakura, haha-this is not fuckin funny-SAKURA-YOU BITCH-NO-NO-YOU'RE LYING-NOOOO!" he yelled, crying- he started hitting the wall; letting out his anger.
"NEJII!" he cried harder, tears falling; soaking the bed.
He clutched his heart, 'God-I can't breathe- my Neji-my love. . . NO! THIS IS A JOKE; HE'S NOT DEAD-HE'S NOT DEAD!'
At the exact moment; something happened with his heart, as he stopped breathing properly, feeling a stabbing sensation on his chest, "Shit," he tried to clam down, but the pain was so intense that the only thing he did, was lay back and tried to regain his breathing.
But, as he closed his eyes, his heart slowly, begin to stop beating.
'DAMN STUPID HUMAN! YOU CAUSED HIM TO HAVE A HEART ATTACK-SHIT- KID-CALM DOWN!'
Kyuubi knew that only Sakura was inside the building, so, he did the only thing he knew, and, was the best thing for now, until Tsunade was back.
Taking over his body, he put Naruto's body in a coma state; which will avoid the heart attack and will keep him calm until Tsunade was back.
She (N/A I KEEP saying 'she' so Kyuubi, I think is a girl lol) knew that news of Neji's death will definitely affect his kids' life forever.
'Rest my child, because when you wake up again . . . you'll see that this was real; no dream of any genjutsu.'
Kyuubi sighed.
It was hard to believe that her child's mate had died, leaving his poor soul alone, mourning his lost and, leaving him all alone, again.
'If I had Uchiha in front of me, I'll kill him, rip his heart out, burn him; and spread his ashes in hell! Dammit, if only I could do such a thing,'
He felt his kids heart beats beat to a normal pace.
'Well, I make him sleep until I see that everything cools down . . . meaning that he won't get to be in his love's funeral . .. but it's for the best. Tch, if I don't do that, the brat will actually go, taking all the tubes/machines with him; risking his own life . . . so no, better be safe and sorry.'
After minutes, Kyuubi finally return to his cage, now that the danger was over, for now. He curled in his fluffy fur, ready to take a long nap along with her kid, since she had used most of her chakra for the birth and keeping Naruto's body steady.
Yep, she needed a long rest.
With a long sigh, she finally closed her eyes, resting after a long nine moths of hard work, but, every little thing was worth, seeing his kid pup, healthy and, beautiful as his mother.
-SasuNaru-
Surprisingly, to everyone, the day of the ceremony was quiet beautiful, breathtaking day.
The warm rays from the sun, shone down; along with a nice, autumn breeze.
Over all, the weather was perfect.
But, even the weather didn't help the mood.
It made it worse; since everyone hope, that this was a nightmare, that suddenly, all of them will wake up-and see, their love ones, again, and alive.
As they shred tears uncontrollably, they all sat in silence, praying.
Like usual, the Hokage gave a brief speech, in honor for those brave ninjas that Konoha had loss.
Even the mighty hokage, couldn't hold back the tears- ending the speech half way, excusing herself, and bowing down in respect.
After that, there was a complete silence.
Some were just admiring the beauty- while thinking about their love ones- as the petals from the Sakura's trees dance, adorning the monument.
Nobody felt as the time passed, everyone were enjoying the silence and the atmosphere around them, that nobody felt the cool breeze or the sun going down - indicating that it was late at night.
As the lights from the torches' slowly faded- surrounded the area, lighting the place, each family started to make their way back to their homes; silently crying, or just walking in a trance-like mode.
It was hard to admit, that they had lost more than 20 strong ninjas in one day.
As the stars and moon appeared; the cold breeze became cold, blowing the torches off- leaving the portraits of every ninja in total darkness, resting in peace at last.
-SasuNaru-
-Six Days Later-
Somewhere inside his mind, he could hear a high pitch cry.
His eyes felt heavy, the strength he knew he had- suddenly vanished, leaving him weak.
Again, he heard the cry- a desperate cry, calling out for attention.
'God, can someone stop that annoying sound . . . it's fuckin bothering me!'
'Finally, you're awake . . . the kid is calling you, you better wake up and do something.' Kyuubi said, annoyed, from all the nonstop crying.
That seemed to wake him up to his reality.
Blue eyes snapped open, staring at the white ceiling, now, the cries were clear and loud- and now, he knew where it came from, and most importantly, from who.
He turned his head to his left, and found a tired looking Sakura, trying her best to calm the infant in her arms, who kept crying, harder and louder, now that Naruto was awake.
"Shhh, calm down, mamma is sleeping-let him rest, please- are you hungry?" Sakura's tiring voice echoed inside the room, letting Naruto know that only they were alone at the moment.
Naruto smiled, and slowly, he rose in a sitting position and said,
"I take it from here Sakura-chan . . . thanks." Naruto's croaky voice, caused Sakura to jumped, but relaxed when he saw that it was Naruto.
"NARUTO, DON'T SCARE ME LIKE THAT! AND YOU SHOULDN'T FORCE YOURSELF!" She made a clone; said clone rushed to his side-checking his vitals.
The real Sakura looked down at Uzumaki-Chan, sighing for the umpteenth time,
She rose from her seat, and walked to Naruto's side, nodding to the clone.
"Well, since you're perfectly stable, now, you can carry your son." she smiled brightly, watching those eyes shine.
'Oh my GODD!' Naruto squealed, mentally, and he gladly accepted the baby, his baby, who had stopped crying; feeling his momma's presence.
Uzumaki-chan giggled, extremely happy, now that he was with his real mommy.
Naruto stopped breathing for mere seconds, as he, looked at his son in his arms.
His baby was breathtaking; his definitely inherit Sasuke's genes.
He couldn't' believe that he just had his baby, who was more beautiful than anything he had seen in his whole life- even more than his own father.
'Damn bastard, even his genes are stronger than mine-fucker! But still, oh-my-god . . . he's so cute! Gosh, I have the feeling that he'll be a heartbreaker . . . like his father. . .' he smiled as Uzumaki cuddled in his arms, making a satisfaction noises.
'I want to see his eyes . . . wake up Uzumaki-chan. . . .'
"C'mon, Uzumaki-chan. . . Wake up; I want to see your beautiful eyes that I gave you, or your daddy?" he cooed at his baby.
Then, a miracle happened, Uzumaki-chan opened his eyes, reveling dark-blue eyes; surprising his mamma, and his aunty.
"OH-MY-GOD!" Sakura squealed, jumping up-and-down staring at his nephew's eyes with awed.
Getting her thoughts together she said, "NARUTO! Look at his eyes . . . they're beautiful." She sighed dreamily, wandering how could Naruto's baby have dark-blue eyes, when his father had dark-eyes?
'Oh well, it's just amazing and, quiet beautiful to see . . . there're unique.'
Naruto smiled, he stared at his son with pure adoration.
"It was meant to be, for him, to have the eyes of both of his parents."
Sakura smile vanished, she looked at Naruto, who kept his smile intact; no sign of sadness or hatred.
Naruto felt Sakura's gaze and turned to looked at her, "Yes, I know, I did say his parents; meaning Sasuke and I."

Author Note:
Thanks for all those wonderful reviews; I'm glad all of you like my fic . . .
But, there's something I need to announce, and it's not good-it's terrible! : (
In, October 24 I'm moving to my new home, therefore I won't be posting the second part of the chapter.
Yes, this chapter was longer than this, actually was more 20 pages in MW, but, I know that it would be a long time before I get the chance to post a chapter, so I decided to post the first part. . . : (
Honestly, this is not my best chapter, in my opinion but, I'll try to fix it later.
Sorry for those who wanted NEJINARU. . . but, this was inevitable. . . one of them had to died. . . and, this was SASUNARU since the VERY beginning. .. so yeah, I'm deeply sorry for those awesome people who kept telling me to kill Sasuke and get Neji's dick inside Naruto . . . damn- sounded dirty- haha, sorry. : )
AWWW. . . AND SADLY, I WONT BE ABLE TO DO A NARUSASU FIC THIS YEAR!
AND –OMG- IM CRYING NOW FOR REAL- I DIDN'T DO MY NARUTO'S B-DAY FIC THIS YEAR! STUPID MOVING/OTHER SHIT THAT NOW IS TAKING OVER MY BRAIN!
Anyways, Happy Holidays-THANKSGIVING/CHRISTMAS/NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE WHO READS THIS. . . LOVE YOU, AND WISH YOU THE BEST . . .
Love, Fer3333.
