It had been a day and the analysis of the DNA test finally came back. Naruto was still unconscious though and the results had been delivered to his room where Tsunade was located at the time. Tsunade had called Minato, Jiraya and even the Hokage, her sensei. She hadn't opened the results, she wanted to wait for the others, but she was impatient, she really wanted to know what these results would showed them.

Finally they arrived, she could hear people coming towards this room. "Come on, hurry up" Minato said, when he had gotten inside the hospital room, to the two others who walked in there instead of storming like he had done. The others just shook their heads and settled inside the room around the young blonde on the bed. Sarutobi took one look at the boy in the bed at gawked "When you said they looked alike you weren't kidding" he said, a bit surprised, he hadn't thought they where this alike.

Tsunade looked smug and took out an envelope that supposedly held the results of the analysis. "Ok here goes" Tsunade said as she opened the it and pulled out a bunch of papers. They saw her facial expressions as she read through the whole report, page for page. First it showed glee at finally finding out if she was right, so she could rub it in peoples faces, then it became more concentrated as she read through the report and finally it settled in a somewhat scary grin that had been plastered on her face at the last page.

'It's Positive, and they have very similar gene structure too… so taking the age difference into consideration, he would be…' this was all said in her head when the grin was on her face, then she finally she looked up from the report and smiled before she said "Heh, Minato this is you're younger brother" she said and Minato's eyes went wide as a flow of emotion flew over him.

He didn't know what to do, he wanted to cry but couldn't, he wanted to laugh but couldn't, to scream in happiness and frustration, but he couldn't, all he could say was "…My younger… brother…". God he was so happy, he had a brother, who would've thought that, not him at least. He had spent so long looking for someone like this for a long time, and finally he had someone, he was not going to let this go.

Jiraiya had a similar look of shock on his face, but then it turned into a thoughtful expression on face as disturbing thoughts entered his mind about the younger blond, and why he would show up now. He hoped that he was wrong though, with all his heart, he wanted to see Minato happy and his newly found brother could help with that. That much he knew.

Sarutobi looked at Tsunade again as if he didn't believe her, his pipe hanging loosely form his lips as a disbelieving look took form on his face. He hadn't believed his students at first when they hat told him, he meant that the chances were very small that this turned out good, and wondered why this guy would show up first now. After all he, together with Jiraiya, Minato and even Tsunade had been looking for someone that could have been Minato's relative for a long time, but had not succeeded in any way.

Tsunade grinned at her sensei and looked at Minato with a smile "Yes, now we only have to wait for him to wake up, you can stay if you like" she said. She couldn't wait to rub it in the face of her sensei and teammate when they were back at the Hokage tower. Hehe she was going to have a lot of fun.

~~oooooo-oo-oooooo~~

Minato sat in the chair he'd been sitting in for the last two days, looking at his brother. He hadn't left his side since he got the news from Tsunade yesterday. He wanted to be there when he woke up, so was the first the blond would see, and most of all not be alone when he did. Waking up in an unknown hospital could be unpleasant, and he didn't want the younger one to feel that. He had slept in the chair and luckily, for him, he didn't have any team meetings yesterday or this morning, or all day for that matter.

It was about noon and Tsunade was done with her routine check and had left to get some painkillers, she said that it just a matter of time before he should wake up and he would probably be in some pain. Minato mused over what she had said and it was then that Minato noticed movement form the younger blond on the bed.

Naruto groaned, his head hurt, a lot… well after all, he had been electrocuted. But wait a minute, shouldn't he be dead then… wait had they found him… oh thank god. He cracked open his eyes and saw the all familiar Konoha hospital and sighed in relief and relaxed his muscles, he found them sore, but that was to be expected and relaxed as much as he could… that is until he heard an unknown voice form beside him.

Minato looked perplexed and tried remaining as calm as he could, he noticed his younger brother relax and finally said "Was about time you woke up, I've been wanting to talk to you for a while" in a cheerful but soft voce 'all my life I've wanted to have someone that was related to me' he tough right after. He saw him freeze up again and looking over to his side, his eyes as clear blue as his. Said boy's eyes widened.

Naruto was a little shocked, he woke up to find someone he didn't know but that somehow looked very familiar… 'Wait! Isn't this the fourth Hokage, but he's so much younger, and isn't he supposed to be dead?… Wait am I dead?… I don't feel very dead, as a matter of fact I'm hurting all over, maybe this is how it feels being dead… I wouldn't know, I've never been dead before... Hey fox you there' Naruto thought in panic and confusion, he hated when his thoughts confused him, and he hated things he didn't understand even more.

There were some laughter in the back of mind and he knew Kyuubi was laughing. "Ahh finally awake I see, about time too" A dark amused voice rang through his head, 'Umm… Kyu am I dead?' Naruto asked somewhat hesitantly, he knew it was a stupid question, but still. "Dead!" more laughter "What no. I'll tell you what you've missed the last three days though. Okay, we're currently in the past, like before the fourth Hokage, which is sitting beside you, became Hokage. I don't know how, but I think it has something to do with my chakra and that lightning jutsu. Well back to the guy beside you, apparently you two are related and you are believed to be brothers, and before you go freaking out, try to play along will ya, so we can get back to our own time in one piece" Kyuubi said whit a huge grin on his face, this was going to be good.

This was a lot for Naruto to take in and he was left speechless, shocked… 'Related… brothers… how… play along… HOW! I cant even lie very well…'. But he was brought out of his state as Minato talked to him again.

"Hey you Ok?" he heard him ask and decided to speak for the first time "Umm… yes, just my head killing me" Naruto said sheepishly forming a small grin, he found his voice a little hoarse form not talking for a while, although he was still a little panicked on the inside. The other guy beside his bed looked a little relived and once again spoke up "Ok good, don't want anything happening to you again. I'm Minato, You?" he said. Minato wanted to lay off the last name just incase the blond had the same, cause that could freak him out a little. Didn't want that now did we.

Naruto stared at him before deciding to trust him. "Na…" he was broken off by Kyuubi "Don't use your real name, this is the past, and it might be smart to use his last name as you're supposed to be brothers" "um.. Naroyu, Namikaze Naroyu" Naruto said, a bit unsure how all this was going to turn out.

Minato Froze when he heard 'Namikaze'. 'So it's true then' he thought and smiled, this made him eager, maybe a little to eager. "Do you have any living family? If not tell me about yourself" he said, smile firmly on his face.

"Just do as he says kit" Kyuubi stated, this would be fun. Naruto looked a bit unsure, but nonetheless answered… "Ehh… No not that I know of, I've been looking but I've never found anything or rather anyone…" he said smiling a bit sad "As for myself, I'm a 17 year old traveling shinobi, cause well I don't have a village, never have". The start was partially true, he had been traveling with Jiraiya, but found he had to lie, he didn't like it but hey what could he do, tell the truth, yea right, that would be a one way ticket to the psych ward. "What about you?" he said after sometime.

Minato smiled "Me well, I'm 20 years old and a jounin of this village, Konohagakure. I'm currently training a genin team. As for family members… I just found one," he said as calmly as possible, but saw the confusion on Naroyu's'(Naruto's) face. "You!… my name is Namikaze Minato, and we confirmed us related two days ago. Short speaking, I'm your older brother" Minato said a little sheepish. 'I hope I don't go to fast with this… don't wanna scare him away' he thought.

Naruto just starred at him for sometime, not as if he was crazy, more of puzzled look, after all the fox had already told him of this, but not how though. 'Confirmed relation… how?' he thought. "Through a DNA test with blood, and apparently it matched, so kit what are you going to do now" Kyuubi said, he knew this was going to be much to take in for the kit, hell he had a headache now.

Naruto continued to look at him, studied him for a bit, but he didn't find any think that showed he was lying… no actually he looked a little nervous and giddy…"You say that we're related… how do you even know that?" Naruto asked carefully, he had heard it from the fox but he wanted to hear it form this guy, Minato was it, too. Well that and he didn't want to seem suspicious ether, like he just knew that's how they had checked it… He also had a hard time believing it himself. 'But if we are related here, that means that the me form my current time must be as well… right?' Naruto thought to himself with a little frown of his face.

Kyuubi thought that was a good time to interfere "I don't know kit, apparently these tests must be very accurate for someone to think them as close related as brothers… but I have heard that…" the Kyuubi stopped, understanding fell upon his face. 'damn, why didn't I see it before' he thought. 'What do you mean kyu, heard what?' Naruto was seriously confused right now, what in the world was than damn fox talking about… damn now he was getting frustrated as well.

Suddenly Minato spoke up, making the younger focus on him. He saw the little frown of confusion on his face and knew it was confusing him to no end. "Uh… we kinda took a blood test, hope you don't mind" he said and looked down to the side with a small grin. 'I didn't really think he'd ask that, well at least not yet. And I also thought he'd react different, he looks kinda confused and he probably is, but I'd thought he'd be more than that, maybe denying it or something'. He rambled on in his head. The truth was that he was nervous as hell, this was his brother after all, he'd never had a brother before and didn't know haw to deal with it. He didn't want the guy to think him a nutcase or something for calling them brothers immediately when he wakes up at some unknown hospital.

"…" Naruto didn't say anything, he didn't mind about the blood test… he was happy, since their blood matched he was family right, what kind of family he'd think of later. Family, the word was odd and unfamiliar to him. Of course he had precious people that was like family, but this guy and himself was actually related. He looked down and his feet and smiled a small but true smile.

The smile didn't go unnoticed by Minato, who smiled a huge smile in return. "I'm glad" he heard Naroyu (I'll be referring to Naruto as Naroyu a lot, just so you're not confused, they are one and the same!) say. And that made him happy.

The blond in the chair rose "Me too, I don't know how long I've spent looking, but here you are" Minato said and gave Naroyu a hug, which the whiskered boy returned after his shock of actually being hugged so sudden.

Just then Tsunade enters again with the painkillers in hand. She smiles upon the scene and awe's, the youngest blond look's as her and she gasps mentally, his eyes where a deep sky blue, just like Minato's. They break up and before Naruto can say anything Kyuubi once again gives him an advise. "Kit remember you don't know anyone here yet, so don't go around saying peoples names".

'oops almost forgot, thanks kyu' Naruto mentally thanked the fox if it wasn't for him, he would have screwed up and said 'Hey Tsunade ba san' or something, that would not have been good. He looked up and asked "So um… who's this Minato?" a bit sheepish cause they'd been caught hugging, not that he minded, but this was Tsunade and he had a history with her… or should he say future… what will happen to that though… be briefly wondered.

Minato smiled upon hearing the question "This is Lady Tsunade, and right now your doctor" Minato said and grinned he moved away so Tsunade could speak with Naroyu.

.

Tsunade was glad he didn't ask further questions to her name and being one of the sanin and so on, and began talking to him. "So you're up, good! now I have to ask some routine questions, is that Ok?" she started, Naruto nodded and she began to ask "Ok name, age and where you're coming form" she waited for him to answer. "Um… Namikaze Naroyu, I'm 17 and I don't live anywhere really, I travel a lot" Naruto said sheepishly, he was glad he remembered the name he'd used for himself, and he really didn't live anywhere now did he, this was the past after all.

Tsunade was a little stunned that he had the Namikaze name, she hadn't expected it since she, Jiraya, Minato and the Hokage had asked any village in fire country of any record of the Namikaze name and had found nothing, so how could he have it. She pondered this until he came to the part where he was traveling, then she understood why he wasn't listed anywhere, he didn't live anywhere.

Tsunade smiled and continued "Ok good, now do you have any allergies, or conditions I need to know of?" that part was important, if he was effected badly by medicine or something she couldn't give it to him out of frear that he could get worse.

Naruto looked up and answered immediately "No, not that you need to know of". When she had mentioned 'condition' he panicked a little. He couldn't tell them about Kyuubi and being a jinchuuriki could he…

She saw him flinch a little when she said condition and his heart rate sped up. She could both hear and see it, cause he was booked up to a machine that measured his heartbeat and pulse. She noticed him calming down as well as Minato noticing the same thing she had. He was obviously hiding something, but she decided against asking about it, after all waking up to strangers could be scary and with the information he had received the last 20 minutes he was probably overwhelmed already.

Meanwhile Kyuubi had said to Naruto that he could tell them of himself, just not now, let them get to know him first. He meant that they wouldn't judge him, after all Minato where the one that sealed him inside Naruto and Tsunade had never done so before in the entire time that she had known him.

"Ok, then I need you to sign this so you can leave the hospital when I say so, and take these, they are painkillers" she smiled at him and he smiled back. He signed as N. Naroyu and gladly accepted the painkillers, his head still hurt, if not more. It was a lot of information to take inn after all. Huh… his life was going to change a lot and it would happen fast.

~~oooooo-oo-oooooo~~

A/N: Just so you know the war is over, but just recently so Minato isn't Hokage yet, if anyone wonders, and/or have questions to the fic, don't hesitate to ask, cause I'll be happy to answer them. I know Tsunade left during the war, but I will change that for something that's to come later.
