Thanks Redlox for the idea and being my first reviewer.
I would love it if anyone reading this (Redlox) to tell others about it because I would love to know how my writing fairs.

Chapter 2 of Testament to my father v 2… On with the story.
Seconds passed as the body of Minato fell to the ground.
Seconds passed as Naruto began to cry.
Seconds passed as the Shinigami (death god) disappeared into nothingness.
Seconds passed. It's funny really because in the Shinobi world it only takes a second or two to die. In a second you could be facing a strong opponent and the next second your throat has been cut by a sword, kunai etc.
Maybe a shuriken chain or a lightning bolt. Nobody knows how they will die; all they know is that it will catch them.
Ibiki Morino is a tall man, about 6'4, broad shoulders with an angular face with dark and determined eyes and a scar running from his right eyebrow to the right side of his nose. He wore a black pair of Anbu pants, a black shirt and a long, black trench coat that reached his knees.
This is the man who is supposed to take care of Naruto.
He is the man who is supposed to take of the Jinchuriki of the Kyuubi no Kitsune.
Ibiki is a man of honour and he would rather be tortured for the rest of his days than leave the poor boy to his demise.
Ibiki knew what the villagers would do to Naruto but, he had to try.
Ibiki landed next to Naruto and his leaders dead body and picked little Naruto up (still in his bundle and with now fully formed whisker marks) in his left arm. Two Anbu then appeared on either side of him. Lizard and Rat.
"I want you two to take Minato's body back to the Hokage tower to prepare him for the funeral (sigh) its going to be a long day tomorrow for all of us."
"Yes sir" both Anbu replied, lifted Minato and left along with Ibiki.
3 days later – Funeral site.
Everyone of the village of Konoha was there, Shinobi and civilian alike.
Everyone in black. Everyone with a dark look in their eyes.
Everyone with a small candle in their hands here to pay respects to the fallen of the Kyuubi's attack.
Ibiki stood up and spoke as he was the last to see Minato before he died and spoke to the population.
"Minato-Namikaze was a great Hokage. A great man. A true leader and friend to those he knew. A man of such calibre that he shined out in a crowd and showed true heart on the battlefield. Motivation leaked out of him. Respect, honour and loyalty were some of the things he lived his life by.
He died to protect us from the Kyuubi no Kitsune.
He gave his life for US and our families and our children. We should all wish him a good afterlife as I know many will miss him. FAREWELL TO MINATO-NAMIKAZE" Ibiki roared and everyone reciprocated it.
6 years later
We now see a six year old Naruto Walking to the Hokage tower for his daily conversation he and the Sandaime Hokage shared.
As Naruto was walking he noticed people looking at him with anger and disgust, and he didn't know why. He had always wondered why. He even asked his step-father Ibiki why this was but Ibiki told him to "just ignore it Naruto, they are all fools" so he never really asked again.
At the Academy no-one looked at him like that. Not one person. Everyone at the Academy liked Naruto, hanged around with him and played with him on a daily basis as six year olds do. But this staring he was receiving was harsher, darker then what he normally got fro the civilians and few Shinobi.
Not one Kunoichi gave him a glare; infact they all said he was cute and would grow to become a handsome man.
Just another long day for Naruto.
He wondered what he had done to fate to make him so hated.
Ironically fate had a plan for Naruto and well, not exactly a nice one.
As Naruto turned a corner continuing his daily trek to see his 'jiji' he was stopped in his tracks by a group of four people. Not Shinobi but civilian with rather sharp things in their hands which funnily enough looked like knives. Wait knives. Crap.
He turned to run out of the alleyway but was again blocked by another civilian man.
They all closed in on him. Dark chuckling, muttering things like 'demon's gonna die today', you know the casual stuff.
"W-what do you want" asked Naruto as he saw the group get closer and closer to him.
"Were gonna kill the demon, what does it look like" one of the men said
"B-but I'm not a demon. I'm perfectly human just like AAAGGGHHH" Naruto screamed. The man from behind rammed his knife into Naruto's right shoulder.
Another punched Naruto in the gut and another kicked him in the right knee cap.
This continued for another five minutes as Naruto felt the most un-imaginable pain.
Blood covered his small frame and his clothes torn and shredded.
His face. A left eye blackened a broken nose and a scar over his right eye from his eyebrow to his lip.
Right arm broken in three places.
Left arm dislocated.
Right leg broken and left ankle sprained.
Three cracked ribs.
Well I guess you could say that Naruto really was having a bad day.
Fate, what a bit**.
