A Few Years Later
Naruto looked out at the Uzumaki compounds training grounds and smiled as he saw his daughter and adoptive son sparring. He was quite surprised when Himawari activated her byakugan, but even more so when she jumped away from a wooden beam that shot out of the ground next to her. He was even more shocked when his daughter used a fire based attack when she should have wind, water, and/or earth affinities. He watched on in shock as Anthony seemed to rarely use hand signs unless he went through some easy and slow hand signs. He watched as it seemed his daughter was watching it and would try to recreate them. He walked outside into the training ground only to be assaulted by a small barrier that made him bounce off of it and back onto the porch. Though the contact with the barrier seemed to be enough when Anthony looked up and said, "Hima-chan we should stop for a little bit, it looks like someone wants to come and talk to us. Not to mention you do sound a little tired so we should take a break anyway." The girl looked up at him and smiled as he continued, "Stand a little bit farther form the glass barrier just in case something happens during the deactivation."
The girl gave him a nod and moved closer to the center of the training area and Anthony went through a few hand seals then slammed his hands onto the ground, the moment his hands hit the ground seals spread around from the spot he impacted and spread out until it was all around them and covered the barrier and then he yelled, "Ranse style release: Glass barrier release!" Then the barrier started to disperse, suddenly the seals cover the top of the glass barrier shimmered then disappeared and started falling towards the children.
Then sudden change of the barrier had Naruto worry and call out to his children. He did not think he was going to make it time, but he still had to try so he activated his tailed beast mode and tried to rush to his children's side. He was only a step away when the glass slammed into the ground and seemed to crush the children underneath of it. Naruto dropped to his knees at the sudden death of his kids, and he could not believe how little he could do to protect them. He slowly stood on shaking legs as he walked over to the slowly dissolving shards of glass that covered the training ground. He let the tears that were building up in his eyes freely drop onto the ground as he looked for any signs of his son and daughter, while looking he softly called out, "Hi-chan. Anthony-kun. Come back, where did you go?" He then felt a presence behind him and turned around to see…
Flashback to when the barrier was collapsing
Anthony was watching as the seals spread around the barrier and when it had finally encompassed the whole barrier he stood back up and smiled and called to Himawari, "It seems that the barrier could withstand some blasts and now it looks like it is releasing appropriately. Thanks for letting me test it out while we were training Hima-chan." Before the girl could respond to what he said though Anthony snapped his attention back to the barrier when he felt something falter, he looked up and noticed how the roof didn't dispel properly and was quickly closing the distance between where it started and the ground. "The dispelling didn't work right the roof is coming down" He shouted as he flashed over to where the young Uzumaki girl was standing and grabbed hold of her saying, "I'm going to shunshin us out of the danger area." With that he warped them out of the collapsing roofs path and onto the porch Naruto was sitting on not too long before. They looked turned to watch as the roof hit the ground they were just standing on not just seconds ago with Naruto falling to the ground at the edges of the once standing barrier. Anthony and Himawari quickly understood what must be running through their father's mind and started to walk over to him.
Flashback End
Naruto then turned around to see the two children he thought crushed embrace him into a tight hug, which he quickly returned as his tears of sorrow quickly transformed into tears of joy. They stayed like this for a few moments before he pushed them away a little to say, "Now, who's idea was it to test that fuinjustu on yourselves?" Both children squirmed a little under their father's glare, but it was obvious when Anthony looked down and Himawari reached over and held his hand in hers who it was that put up the barrier. He then asked, "So why did you test it like that without testing it on its own or on a smaller scale?"
"I did test it on a smaller scale and then Hima-chan wanted to train so I asked if we could try and train while in the barrier since I needed to test it on its defense and the barrier on a bigger scale in general. We both agreed and I didn't think it would break like it did, sorry dad."
Naruto sighed, then said, "Well, seeing how it was for the sake of perfecting a new technique and that no one got hurt I think I can forgive you two." With this the two kids let out a sigh of relief, but Naruto then said, "But next time have someone with you when you do something this dangerous and…" He looked around quickly, "let's keep this a secret from your mother."
Just as it seemed the kids were about to respond to their father a sudden burst of killer intent started to leak into the air. Naruto turned around and the kids peeked around form behind him to see the source only to see Hinata as she said, "Keep what a secret, from whom Naruto-kun?" The way she said his name at the end had all their hairs stand on edge. Before anyone could try to move Hinata released even more KI and was standing right of Naruto with a very sweet looking smile that made all of them flinch back a little. "Well?"
Naruto looked back at his kids looking for a little support to see Himawari tightly holding onto Anthony as he was finishing up with some hand signs. He looked at his father with a slight smile and fear clearly etched all over his face as he and his sister said together, "Good luck dad!" as they started to warp out of the area.
Naruto reached out trying to grab a hold of them when he felt something clutch his jacket in a death grip. He turned to face the very murderous looking face of his wife as he mumbled, "You traitors, when I get my hands on you…" He was unable to finish the statement when he looked into the eyes of his wife it was the look of Tsunade would always be seen given Jiraya when he was caught spying on her in the hot springs. He gulped, "I have no idea Hina-cha…" That was the last thing he remembered before being knocked unconscious by a few precise Jūken strikes.
A Few Hours: Back in the family head's house
Anthony and Himawari were sitting in front of their mother and bandaged up father. The sight of their father made them cringe and worry how bad they would look after their mother was done with them too. Naruto was the first to speak though which surprised the children. "So after seeing that spar you two had I have a few more questions that led to me interrupting." The children gulped, but did not say anything, but nodded for Naruto to continue. He looked at Anthony and asked, "Did you use wood release?" The child remained silent, but nodded. This shocked Hinata, but before she could say anything Naruto continued to push the child, "You do know that was the unique style of jutsu and kekkei genkai of the Senju clan. Now I would like to know how you came to have it?" Everyone had a shocked look on their faces and looked over to the boy.
The boy sighed and looked up at his adopted father before saying, "It is one of my own kekkei genkai as well I am not limited to just my dōjutsu kekkei genkais, but some others." He stopped to take a shaky breath before stopping the others to talk by continuing, "I would rather not talk about some of them, but I can tell you that I am not of the Senju clan, my clan has always been few in numbers. I can't even tell you how many we have now and each of us have a different variation of our true kekkei genkais." With this he looked down at his feet with a few tears forming in his eyes.
Naruto felt a pang in his chest and Hinata looked over at her husband, with a worried expression on her face, knowing that this is how the Uzumaki clan is like. Naruto spoke with some effort, "Do you know where any of them are?" the boy shook his head to answer his father's question. Naruto by now had tears forming in his eyes as well. He stood up and walked over to the boy and whispered loud enough for everyone to hear, "I know what you're going through that's exactly the situation that the Uzumaki clan is in now. If you want I could help you look for them?"
The boy quickly looked up at Naruto with a new expression no one expected to see on him, it was filled with dread and a deep sorrow. Naruto pulled the boy into a comforting hug, which the boy allowed. Anthony then said so everyone could hear, "Thank you for the offer dad, but I would rather leave them for their own devices for a little longer. My clan is not one filled with good people so I don't want to see them too much anyways. The times when we meet with each other it never ends peacefully." He stopped and clung a little tighter to his father and felt warmth surge through him as something wrapped around him from behind as well. He knew it was Himawari and he allowed his tears drop to the floor or onto his father's back. He even felt it when Hinata hugged them from the side.
It was a very touching family moment that was only interrupted when the parents pulled away from each other and Naruto said, "I understand Anthony." Hinata walked over and hugged her adopted son again, then pulled away to wipe his tears while Naruto continued to say, "I won't push for more information about your kekkei genkais or your family. I trust you to show or tell us on your own when you are ready." The boy nodded his head again, then they all hugged each other again. It was a quick hug and then the parents kissed the kids foreheads again before wishing them a goodnight and sending them to their rooms for the night.
A/N
I hope you guys are enjoying my story so far I have been thinking about how OP Anthony is and I can understand if you guys don't understand why or you don't like it. I promise it will become a little more clear later on in the story and I think it will get a little more interesting next chapter I am thinking of showing Himawari and Anthony graduating and becoming Genin, but I would like to hear you guys think should be their jonin-sensei? I'll leave this one open for you guys for around three weeks because I have drill final exams and final projects due for the next two weeks. I will try and write a little more for the story, but I might not get it out until a little before or after the holidays. I am thinking of writing a Christmas special for this story if any one would like that it would probably be me pushing the relationships of Himawari and Anthony a little farther and maybe introducing other couples and characters. Please leave me reviews and ask me as many questions as you guys want?
Thanks for reading so far guys I hope to continue writing this story for a good while, so bear with me and help me as much as you can with reviews and tips. Talk to you all again next time.
