"Are you telling me you cheated on me?!' a man's voice echoed through the house.
"Quiet," his companion whispered. "You'll wake up Keisuke.'
"Maybe he should wake up! Then could say good bye to you both!"
"Honey, please! I didn't cheat! I was...was taken advantage of on a mission."
"I highly doubt that." He peered down at her stomach. "I'm going to the drug store,"And with that he left the house, slamming the door behind him.
Not long after, their son, Keisuke, walked into the living room. "It's not time for school...Is it…?"
His mother gave him a soft smile. "No, nothing like that." She stood up and took Keisuke's hand. "We have to report to the hokage, alright?"
"Is somethin-"
Before he could ask, Masami walked out the door. They went to the Hokage's mansion, and after she told him her story he instructed her to go to the hospital.
When they got to the hospital it seemed like an eternity before they were seen.
"Is something wrong?" the receptionist finally called them.
Masami walked up, carrying Keisuke. "I uh...I need a special exam.
The nurse walked her back to a waiting area.
After a few hours…
Keisuke woke up in the children's area of the hospital. There were children running and scrapping over toys. He looked around, then went to the nurse, or the one he assumed to be in charge.
"Yes, little boy," she smiled sweetly. "What can I do for you?"
"My name's Keisuke Nara...Is my mom here? Or my dad?"
"You're mother is, yes. You may see her in a moment."
As if on cue, a blonde burst threw through the doors of the examination room. "PARTY!"
The brunette sighed. "Lady Tsunade..."
"Aw c'mon! It's not everyday we see a pregnant woman! NEW LIFE IS THE ULTIMATE REASON TO CELEBRATE!"
The nurse muttered something about being shorthanded but simply led Keisuke back to his mother's hospital room.
The moment the door slid open, Keisuke jumped onto his mother bed, causing her to grunt. She rubs his back and kissed his head.
"Were you waiting long?"
"Naw, This one kid was playing with me, so time went by fast."
She giggled. "Was he one of your classmates?"
"Yeah!" before she could ask another question, he kept speaking. "That… Special Exam you wanted done...what was it?"
"Keisuke..." she began softly, holding her child to her chest. "I-"
"You're harlot of a mother went and got herself pregnant."
"Pregnant?" Keisuke looked at his mother, who gave a grief-stricken look back at him.
"Yes, Honey. You're going to have a sibling."
Keisuke didn't answer. His gaze had shifted to his father. There was a look in his eyes. A war-torn look, the one one would give a stronger enemy. A look of pure hatred.
Keisuke put two and two together quite quickly.
"This isn't dad's baby….is it?"
"Fuck no, it's not."
"D-Dad…? Keisuke's voice shook. He'd never seen his father so angry, and the fact that it was directed at him and his mother scared him even more.
"Go out into the waiting room," Yoshida growled at his son. Once the boy was gone, he pulled out a syringe.
"Wh-what is that?"
"Emergency contraception." He held out his hand in a voiceless command for her to give her's to him.
Her voice was unsteady. She held her arm close to her body and shook her head. "No...It's too late anyway. I'm way to far along for that to work." As she continued to speak she gained more confidence. That confidence faded instantly when he grabbed her arm and raised the syringe.
"Don't you worry your little head about this. I know it's past the time I can do this, but I have my own concoction that'll take care of all this."
The moment he was about to inject the serum into her arm, a certain Blonde Sannin busted right back in the room. "I forgot your discharge papers." She managed between giggling fits. She sobered up a bit when she saw the syringe. "What are you doing?"
"Oh...this is just her medicine...She's got a vitamin deficiency."
"Oh...Well, we'll handle all that from now on." She smiled and pulled Masami out of bed. "Now let's go get a drink to celebrate!"
"Um...Lady Tsunade...I'm pregnant...Remember?"
The shorter female pouted and nodded. "Fine, but next time you pay." She walked out.
Having being left without his 'medicine', Yoshida glared at his wife. "I. Am going. To make. Your life. HELL." He promised as he led her out.
The next few months were, as Yoshida promised, hell.
Knowing that the baby would feed off of whatever Masami ate, he gave her the bare minimum of food, and what he did give her, he gave her very small portions.
Keisuke wasn't old enough to understand what was going on, he simply went around doing as he was told; his chores, his school work, his training. He never noticed anything wrong with his mother.
When the day came for the baby to be born, not a thing happened. Her water didn't break, she showed no signs of labor. If you were to look at her it would be hard to tell she was 10 months pregnant.
About a week later, she sat on the couch, hand gently rubbing her stomach and speaking gently to the baby in her belly. "What's wrong little one..." she cooed. "You afraid to come out..." she held back a tear. "I don't blame you..."
Keisuke poked his head in. He had just gotten home. "Mom...Is the baby still not here?
"No..." she sighed. "I'm starting to get worried. He's already a week late...And..." she trailed off about her other concerns. Her academy aged son need not worry about this.
"Maybe we should go to the hospital..? The doctors can help you."
"Keisuke, go wash up. I'll get you a snack."
He nodded and ran up to his room. Once he was sure his mother wouldn't hear, he jumped out the bathroom window and bolted to the hospital.
He returned to his house with a few nurses. The Hokage even tagged along after hearing what Keisuke had to say.
"So, where is your mother?" one of the medics asked. She and the others went to where his mother was. Keisuke tried to follow but was stopped.
"Yes, Lord Hokage?" Keisuke looked up at Minato.
"I have some...questions concerning your mother." The blonde tried to sound friendly.
"What about her?"
"Well, she's been absent from all her prenatal exams… And now she's not seeking help even though she may be having complications with the baby."
"Dad just said he'll come when he comes."
"Yes, but after a week, it's best to-" he was interrupted by a scream from Masami.
"Mom?!" Keisuke tried to run in, but Minato grabbed him. "Let me go!"
"Don't worry," Minato said reassuringly. "They've probably just induced labor." He smiled down at the academy student. "You're baby brother will be here soon."
After a few hours, Yoshida walked into the hospital. The medics had moved Masami into a room. Keisuke sat at her bedside holding his baby brother.
"She awake?" Yoshida said to no one in particular.
"She just fell asleep..." Keisuke whispered. "The Hokage wanted to see you..."
"I already talked to him," Yoshida looked to the small heap in his eldest son's arms. "Did she name it?"
"No...She didn't name him…."
Yoshida hit his sleeping wife. She woke up abruptly and took a deep breath.
"Hello, Yoshida..." she said, trying to keep her voice steady. "Did you meet our son?"
"Your son," he corrected curtly. "I had no part in his creation. If I am to put up with raising him, I at least have the right to name him."
"Oh," her tone picked up, thinking he was coming around to the thought of raising their new child.
"His name will be Katai."
"Katai," she thought of the meanings the name could have and nodded. "That could be a fine name."
"It's perfect," he smirked and glared at the baby. "He was a mistake, therefore his name will reflect it."
"Can't 'katai' mean honorable too?" Keisuke frowned.
"He can believe what he wants when he's older, but he'll always be the mistake no one will ever love."
