CHAPTER 2- The Fox
The day was October 10th,it was yet another day for the hidden leaf as everyone went about their business. The air was calm and abuzz with joy since all of the more prominent clans had all given birth to happy and healthy babies. Now everyone was just waiting on one last clan, the Sarutobi's.
Minato was a happy man. He had a beautiful wife, a happy village, his hokage cloak flowed freely on his shoulders, probably most importantly. He had a healthy wonderful son. Naruto had just recently turned 7months about a week ago. "God I hate that song." He thought amused at his line of thinking. But anyway, Naruto seemed very smart for his age. When he became able to hold things effectively, he showed an ability to solve shape puzzles made for 1 to 16 month old children. He was showing a large amount of activity, probably due to the amount of uzumaki blood inside of him, and all in all was Minato's idea of a perfect son.
One could tell that young Naruto would grow to be a father's kid, considering how happy he would get whenever he saw his father. Not saying he didn't love his mother, but everyone knew who his favorite was.
"I'll get the next one." Thought Kushina, as she happily watched her husband interact with her baby. Knowing he preferred him over her stung at first but she grew to accept it. As long as her child was happy and healthy then what could she complain about? Plus she could always get lucky and have the next one favor her, though she wanted Naruto to grow a little before thinking of having another child.
As she returned to the kitchen to finish making dinner (take a guess what she made) she heard a crack and looked behind her to see a broken teacup on the counter. Knowing what this normally meant, she nervously looked back at minato and saw him happily swinging in one of the swings he installed into their backyard. Naruto screaming in joy at going so high.
She nervously continued on making dinner, knowing something bad would happen soon, and prayed to kami that it would keep away from their life
But life's a bitch isn't?
konoha head hospital
"You can do this Etika-chan! Said Biwako Sarutobi, chief of the hospital, as her daughter in law gave birth to her soon to be grandson. Hiruzen and Ken were right next to her, each holding a hand. "You can do this honey, just push!" said Ken as he tried to comfort his wife. "YOU DID THIS TO ME YOU SICK BASTARD AND ALL YOU CAN DO IS STAND THERE AND SAY PUSH?"Retorted/yelled his lovely other half.
As the lady in labor tried to kill her husband, who was hiding behind Hiruzen who was hiding behind Biwako. There was a man shrouded in a black cloak with red nimbus clouds, sitting in a tree watching the family interact. "Send in the clone" said the man to the face coming out of the tree. The black and white creature nodded and made a few hand gestures.
As Biwako was about to pull out the newly named Konohamaru, an anbu black ops used the body flicker jutsu to appear inside the room. "Lord 4th requests your appearance lord 3rd. He said come at this very moment." The anbu finished and left the way he came.
Hiruzen gave a tired sigh since he wanted to see his grandson's birth. "I'll be back as soon as I can Biwako-chan." He said to his wife as she nodded and returned to her work. When Hiruzen disappeared she heard gave the final order to push and brought the crown of the baby out. Soon followed by the rest of the body.
Giving the baby a doubly check just to make sure everything was where it should be ,she let Ken cut the umbilical cord then washed the baby. Wrapped him in a towel and handed him off to his mother. "Congratulations." She said as she passed her grandson off to her daughter in law. "I'll let you three get acquainted" she said as she left the room. There would be plenty of time to do her own bonding with little Koh-chan.
She then hears a loud crash and goes to investigate, making sure to set up protection seals around the room to her family, just in case.
"I can't believe this is ours" says Ken as he stares down at their son. "I'm just grateful that the fox has been quiet thanks to those seals put up by Yondime-sama." Said Etika, glad that her leader was so well versed in Fuuinjutsu. Knowing that the fox could be a potential problem, Minato applied chakra suppressant seals onto Etika so that the fox would be severely weakened and reduced to sleep like state.
Just then they saw a single body fly through the doors of the small medical room. As the figure was flung against the wall they could see that the body was once Biwako, who now lay dead. A large hole leaking blood from the left side of her chest. Before they could do anything ken was stabbed from behind, a sharp blade protruding from his chest.
"Sorry to barge in like this but I need the fox." said the figure in a gruff, monotone voice as he threw away they body of ken and continued on to Etika and Konohamaru. The latter of which was crying loudly, the former had steady tears flowing from her eyes as she clutched the baby hard to her chest, hoping and praying Hiruzen would hurry back. Although her father in law didn't come, she got the next best thing.
Minato himself sent the masked man a way with a powerful kick to the chest. He then looked around and his expression saddened at seeing the states of Biwako and Ken. He then scooped up Etika and Konohamaru and flashed back to his and Hiruzen's meeting place.
"What happened Minato-kun?" asked Hiruzen as he took the passed out Etika from his Hokage. "Im sorry Hiruzen-sama but when I got there both Biwako and ken were dead. I completely understand if you bla-"
"Don't have such thoughts Minato." Interrupted Hiruzen, Minato that his man was trained by the second hokage. "We can mourn the dead later but for now we must focus on the living, so what do you suggest as to how we deal with that murderer?"
Before Minato could say anything the masked man barreled into both him and Hiruzen, while in the same move took Etika and jumped a few feet away from them. Etika, who was still unconscious, was somehow able to tightly hold on to Konohamaru. "Impressive Yondaime. "Said the masked man. "You almost had me there, and to be able to organize a meeting point in such a little amount of time is nothing sort of genius. However, my plan is still faithful and now I that I have the fox I cannot be stopped. Think fast!" said the man as he threw Konohamaru into the air. As minato jumped to get him, the man was sucked into a strange, vortex like jutsu.
"Do you know where he went?" asked Hiruzen as he regained his bearings.
"Actually yes, when he tackled us I put a hirashin seal on him." Said Minato, handing Konohamaru off to his grandfather. "Take Konohamaru to Kushina and have her drop off both Naruto and Konohamaru with Mikoto-chan, well need her uzumaki chains if we're going to fight the Kyuubi."
"But there's no way that he could break through that seal." said Hiruzen, knowing just how powerful a seal it was.
Just then they felt a wave of hate and malice wash over the entire leaf village, then a deep blood red bubble formed directly in the center of Konoha. They watched as the bubble began to get bigger and bigger, then it began to take shape. First came the long deep orange arms and legs, the claws being longer than 3 tall men standing on each other's shoulders. Then came the huge, nine furry tails. Each waiving madly behind the beast. Then finally came the large head, probably being as big as an average sized house.
Civilians and shinobi alike just stood there, shaking in fear as the strongest bijuu formed directly inside their home. The Kyuubi slowly opened its eyes and looked around, giving a growl of confusion then it stopped, cocked its head sideways and all went silent. Even its mindless tails stopped what they were doing and were standing just as straight as the people who were trembling in fear.
Then suddenly, the Kyuubi's eyes turned into that of a 3 tomoe sharinigan , and it roared. This seemed to shake Hiruzen into gear as he gave a quick nod to Minato and did what was ordered of him. Minato readied a Rasengan and went off to do his part.
Minato and masked man location. (Canon fight)
"I see why they named you hokage. "Said the man as he wipes a bit of blood away from under his mask. "Being able to land a hit on me is no easy feat, but now it's over."
"Yes, It is." Said another minato from behind him and slapped a seal on his stomach. "Shadow clone?!" thought the man as the Minato in front of him puffed into smoke.
"Seems i lost this one, but the damage is still done." Said the man, as he once again started to disappear into his portal. "Good bye Yondaime, may this be the last time we meet." And with that he disappeared completely to log knows where
"To think that you would fall this far…Obito" thought minato as he flashed towards his wife and Hiruzen. "I'll flash the fox to close to the valley of the end, you guys have to get there fast though so we can prepare to…why do you still have Konohamaru?" he asked, looking at the baby in Hiruzen's arms.
"We need an infant to seal the baby in and Konohamaru was the best choice, since after Mito-sama's passing, every time a jinchurriki was needed a Sarutobi offered their child. Its clan tradition so the hokage has no say in it." Said Hiruzen forcefully.
"It's for the best minato-kun" He said, softer. Minato gave a glum nod, not wanting to subject such a harsh living on a baby, but he knew it was for the best.
Ten minutes later, near the valley of the end.
"FUIN! " Yelled Minato as he sealed half of the nine tailed fox into Konohamaru and the rest into himself. The fox roared in anger at once again being denied its freedom. "Kushina-Chan, please look after Naruto. "He said as the fox's lower half was sealed into Konohamaru, who was being surprisingly quiet.
When the fox heard the voice he looked at the two and recognized them as the reason he was being sealed into this child. Maybe he could get free or kill the child, but maybe he could grant himself some small amount of happiness. And with those thoughts in mind he punctured minato and kushina on one of his mighty claws. With what seemed like a smile of content he was then fully sealed into the baby, happy he could kill his imprisoners.
"NOO!" yelled Hiruzen as he tried to put chakra into their wounds to at least prolong their deaths. "Kushina-Chan, Minato-kun. I am so sorry" said Hiruzen as he wept, not being able to take so much death and loss in one night.
"It's okay Sarutobi-sama." Said kushina as she also wept, not from the pain but from knowing she wouldn't be able to see her baby grow up. "Just make sure that Mikoto-san takes good care of my naru-chan for me. Make sure he grows up big and strong, and happy. Please make sure he's happy." As she finished saying her final words, she looked at minato and saw him put the last amount of his chakra in a sealing scroll. He then told her to do the same thing and with a happy and knowing smile she did.
"Please keep my son safe Hiruzen." Said Minato. "Try to keep Konohamaru close to him; I think they will need each other in the years to come." Images of the great prophecy flowing through his mind. "Also I give you back the title of hokage, Sandaime-sama, please lead the village out of this mess." He then held up the scroll that had his and Kushina's chakra stored inside. "I imagine you know what this is, give it to Jiraiya when he takes Naruto on his training trip."
Hiruzen gave a stiff nod and bowed to both husband and wife. "I will let you two enjoy your…final moments" He said turning around to leave "it's truly been an honor being in your services Yondaime-sama, and thank you for your delicious meals Kushina-sama. Goodbye." And with that he disappeared, leaving the couple to die in peace.
"How do you think Naruto will turn out?" asked Kushina, who was bleeding to death in her husband's arms. "I hope he turns out to look like you but acts like me."
"I hope it will be the exact opposite." Minato chuckled weakly. "Kami knows we don't need a second coming of the red hot habanero." This small jab got him a punch in the arm. "Any regrets?" he asked as he felt his life leaving him.
"Only that I won't be able to see my baby grow up." Answered Kushina as she also felt the life leaving her. How about you?"
"The same only that I couldn't protect you, I promise I'll do so in the afterlife." He said, he felt something warm on his cheeks and didn't even realize that he had been crying. He then felt a hand gently bring his face down, he locked lips with his wife for what he knew would be the last time. This action being just what they needed to express their feelings better than any words.
Uchiha compound
At that exact moment Naruto woke up and started to cry. Mikoto tried seeing what was wrong but he wasn't wet, hungry, or tired. Suddenly a cold wind blew open the window closest to them, then Naruto held his hands out to the window.
"Maybe he wants some fresh air." Thought the uchiha as she brought him outside. To her surprise he immediately calmed down and opened his eyes. He stared at the sky and then suddenly started laughing. "You like the stars Naru-chan?" She asked. "Maybe your parents will let me keep you a bit longer, since you and Sasu-chan get along so well." But he was paying no attention to her as he looked at a particular set of stars, which seemed to shine brighter than the rest.
He then reached his arms out to those two stars and began to wail loudly, waking every member in the compound.
AN- so I think I did fairly well with this chapter no? also (to those who care) I will try to make my chapters around the same size as this one, but it all depends on 1:the importance of the chapter
2: the amount of reviews I get for the previous chapter
And 3: if I meet my personal deadline, also expect a new chapter every 1 or 2 weeks. I will inform you if I need longer than that but I think that's pretty good. So leave a review, follow if you haven't already and all that good shit and I'll see yall next chapter BYE
