allthningzANIME-I've never been to one so the entire last chapter was all in my brain and what I thought that a baby shower would be like. And why did you get pissed off after twenty minutes of your sisters? I'm honestly curious now!
Sasunarulover4life-I know I hate Sasuke a lot, too, but it had to happen to give the story more drama. But punishing him sound fun—steals the book—I like number 47 personally, 'tie Sasuke to a chair and have Naruto dance around him naked.' Lol. What fun.
Eovin-Thank you for reviewing!
blusum-I love you more ill bet, but I feel awful about this chapter so—holds up a cross sign—don't kill me!
Disclaimer-same ol' same ol'! Don't own, blah. Don't own, blah.
Love everyone. Period. The end.
It hurt…something awful…more so then he thought that it would. Or was this the way that it was supposed to feel when this sort of thing happened to him, it wasn't even meant to go remotely in this direction. To feel like unnamed something's in his inner workings were going to battle, everything was getting minimized and compacted into a small tight ball. Smaller and smaller until there would be nothing left to minimize and compact.
He could feel them, these were contractions.
The gears that made that revolutionary circuit all around him had stopped in its tracts but at the same time felt the need to go about ten times faster, at a much higher speed, to pump things like moremoremore inside of him.
He looked to the people, or what he thought were people, huddled up against him as if he were some insulator for warmth; there shapes were blurry and he was unable to tell who was who or where even that he was or what was what. He just started talking, for the sake of talking; trying to explain to them that there was something wrong with him and his babies. Mostly his babies, forget about him, he wasn't really all that important, just help his fucking babies! Now!
"Help please…" he panted, was it only him or was the room just filled with this thick cloud of stuffiness and sort of this thick layer of pain, was it that that made it so hard for him to breathe in and then out again. "It hurts, it hurts." He gulped feeling a slow steady streaming of beads of sweat accumulating on his forehead and found it even harder to take it air. But he kept trying to speak even despite the agony. "My babies just get my babies."
Then his throat stopped up and he wasn't able to say anymore though he wished that he could. How come they were just standing there staring at him like he was on some kind of fucked up display? He knew that man-preg was a whole new concept but he was in some serious pain here, and he was asking for there help, he was calling out for them. Why wouldn't they answer his cries?
Naruto wasn't making any sense; he mumbled some words under his breath that were just long strings of stuff they couldn't understand. Then he would breathe deeply and gulp and twitch his fingers in really weird ways, every one was freaking out in their fast chatter all around him.
Sakura wasn't sure what she should do, she knew what she could do, and sure she had been training under Tsunade-san when she found the time but that didn't mean that she was ready for this kind of thing to pop out of nowhere. She guessed it was just routine for life to meander around and randomly give her a good slap in the face.
Or had that been the Hokage herself who did that with quick movements and screamed in her ear, "You look like you just saw death itself, so get your skinny ass over here and help me, help him."
But she wasn't sure; she had always just been Sakura who was one step behind them, letting them save her. And now he needed her and she was frozen like some sort of pussy statue; he was so strong, mush stronger then she was, to call out for help like he had.
She was just so nervous for him, was Naruto and his children going to make it, or not? It just was plainly not fair that these things almost always seemed to happen to Naruto, everything that he had ever loved and only wanted to be loved back by had ripped itself out from underneath him leaving him without a foundation.
The villagers had pushed him down the road less traveled by so that they didn't have to look at him anymore; just because he harbored something that wasn't human it didn't mean that he himself didn't deserve basic human rights. Sakura couldn't stand this anymore.
He was her friend; even when she had called him her own set of names behind his back.
He was her comrade; even when she herself hadn't wanted him to so much as touch her.
He was her annoying little brother; even when she hadn't wanted to be seen with him, and abandoned him like the rest.
And right now in this moment he was in pain, that much she could tell, there was something that had gone terribly wrong with her pregnancy and she could loose him to that great beyond for however long that it took for her to reach him.
"Sakura!" Tsunade yelled waking her from her momentary laps in reason, "He's gone into labor to early," She pointed to the water stain on his pants that wasn't all water have of it was a thick crimson color. "His water has broken, we need to get him to a more secure area away from all of these people or else him and his babies will die. So quit standing there with those bug eyes and get over here, you brat!"
She couldn't move for a moment, there was so much blood, but then bucked up holding down her gag reflex she rushed to Tsunade's side; she refused to be helpless.
"What do you need me to do?" She would give anything at this point to help him; anything to save him, just as he would do if there roles had been reversed. She was going to take this small part of him and use it for herself.
"Help me get him into the bedroom; it's too late to get him into the hospital." Sakura nodded wheeling Naruto into the next room that help a bed, Tsunade hot on her heals. That was more like it.
They scooped him up into there arms, mostly Tsunade's, and set him ever so gently onto the bed, propping him halve way up on a whole bunch of pillows. His shortness of breath was over the top, tossing in odd patterns from side to side and mumbled something that they two of them could actually understand this time.
"It hurts so bad…Sasuke…help me…" The tears were draining down his face in unmistakable suffering, in his own mind he honestly saw the raven standing there with him. Somewhere deep in his subconscious he thought that the older boy was right next to him, and was going through this, too. It was merely a hallucination of the thing that he wanted and need the most right now, to just stay while he bore that ones children. He only wanted to see him there.
"Its okay, sweetie, just try and relax sweetheart…" whispered Sakura grabbing the blonde hand and putting a soothing palm on his forehead.
"It's to late for relaxation I'm afraid, at this point the babies need to get out of there now or all three of them are going to be gone, they only have the next hour or so if we don't hurry…"
Sakura's head snapped up, "No, why, why this soon he only had two more months to go and then that was his due date, not here, not now. It wasn't supposed to happen like this." She sobbed.
"Sakura, get a hold of your self, look this little asshole needs you, and your not of any use to him when you're a blubbering mess like this," she worked quickly taking off Naruto's soiled sweat pants and discarding them onto the floor so that she could clear the passage way for them. "Get his damn sweater off of him. I know that it's the middle of January but really why all the layers?"
Sakura did as she was told leaving him with nothing on but a baggy black T-shirt that was already soaked through with him sweat.
Tsunade ran a hand through her hair, "It's way too late for a C-section, and we'll have to have the babies manually."
"You mean through his…um…his…"
"No, you stupid girl," she yelled spreading Naruto's legs so that she could get a proper view of what was going in down there. "He can have them through his ass, which admittedly isn't all hat better but it's a hell of a lot better then through his dick, eh?"
Then speaking to Naruto she said, "Brat, I need you to push now!" The blonde didn't respond at first, "Now!"
He heard this time and acted faster pushing with all of his might and every ounce of strength that he had left in him somewhere. Where was that damn adrenaline when he needed it, he only wanted to get the damn things out of him, it hurt so bad that he swore he wasn't ever going to have sex ever again.(A/N-technically he's a liar)
Approximately forty or so minutes later he managed to pop his first child out into Tsunades hands, witch as she came he screamed in distress. He was bleeding pretty badly.
"Congratulations, Naruto, it s girl!" She handed his beautiful baby girl off to Hinata, who had appeared with her magical ways, to get cleaned off and to cut the umbilical cord and all that other good stuff. The child was just wailing her head off, letting her presence be known in the world.
"This one shouldn't be as hard just a couple more good pushes and it'll be out, so push!" Naruto screamed his way through this baby, too.
Tsunade was right this one came much easier then the last, and when it was out Sakura whispered, "Good job, mommy," patting his forehead with a dampened cloth.
"It's a boy!" but there were significant differences between the two of his children, for one the girl was still crying and this one was still and silent, but she handed him off to Hinata who had started crying at the loss, and hated it how he laid so limp and lifeless in her arms.
Naruto smiled with his eyes closed completely unaware of the sadness and breathed, "Hajime for the girl and Sasuke…Uchiha…" and with those last words he passed out on the sheets, it was best to let the new mother sleep, they would save this grave news for a later date.
They took turns looking and holding his children, except for Sakura who had started to clean off the blonde of all of that blood that he was still bleeding pouring out of such a small hole; she shivered. She bandaged him up and draped a blanket over him so that he would be more comfortable while he slept.
Even Tsunade had started to cry as she looked down at the one who wasn't even giving a simple chance at life; the child was nothing short of an angel. Why did he have to die?
They all looked to the new mother who was sleeping so soundly with a perfect smile on his face because he didn't know that one of his children, one of his babies, had just died. That Tsunade and Sakura had been too late in saving him, in saving the tiny Sasuke. One of his own had just passed into the after life without even getting a glimpse of the outside world.
There was a new agony and despair inside of each of there chests, that made there hearts hurt in unimaginable ways. And death lingered with them, it was like the little Sasukes soul floated mere feet above there heads instead of being with its body, but was going up to heaven.
"Call it…" sniffled Sakura, "We can't do anything now…" she cried harder at the truth of those words, hovering closer and closer to Hajime thankful that at least one had survived. She was strong; she would be fierce.
"Seven forty nine P.M. January seventeenth, the death date and birthday of little Sasuke Uchiha." Hinata sobbed over the living child in her hands, who was sleeping in her arms.
They all wept together, over a live child and one that was not. Trading one being for another; life it was just not fair.
End
I know I hate me too.
And for anyone who actually cares Hajime means 'beginning' in Japanese, hence the title! Yay me!
Anyway in the next chapter you'll know why the little Sasuke died early…it's so sad…—sniffles— and Ill give the babies profiles there so cute!
I really hate me now, but review and tell me how much you hate or don't hate my story please I beg of you!
I'm also sorry that this chapters shorter then usual which really isn't all that long.
And woot I managed to update today instead of next week!
