Ch 6

It's been a few days and it is finally October 10, the day Naruto is born. 

I've met with Kushina and Minato many times more, but that is all the interaction we have had. I do feel like we've become closer, but I think that's just Kushina's motherly instincts. I know Naruto's born at night so I have all morning to myself. 

My parents sometimes have the morning with me but most of the time I'm alone. 'I need to get stronger', I keep thinking, my mom said she may teach me but she said she doesn't want the ninja life for me. I keep saying that I want to be one but she keeps saying no. She says if I get stronger on my own she will teach me everything she knows, but I will still not be a ninja. 

"No academy, no nothing" she always says when I ask her. 

My mom has a deep grudge against the academy because they were always mean to her and other kids who didn't have "talent", and always nice to the kids who had it. She also said that she will not train me until I'm academy age(6-7). 

And that she will make sure that I will not touch a single piece of a weapon until I'm also academy age. Ugh. So that's why I will train my physical body to the max. Train my mind to the max and train my chakra to the max when I'm still young. 

It's around 8 pm and I'm just wandering the village because I'm bored and trying not to go to sleep because who wants to wake up to an explosion. I don't know exactly when Naruto is born but I know it is at night so I'm going home soon. 

I walked around downtown before deciding to go home. On my way home I felt a monstrous amount of chakra that scared me to the bone. "No it can't happen yet" I shouted, surprised. 

I looked at the now orange figure in pure disbelief. Kurama was here. He started making work on destroying the village and his killings. "Oh hell no I am not doing this here" I shouted running. I am NOT gonna die here. 

I was running home looking at the horrors of death on the way, and for someone who has no trauma this was a shock. But then I heard someone shout "LOOK IT'S LORD HOKAGE ''. I looked to the Hokage mountains to see Minato looking pissed. 

The tailed beast looks his way and throws a tailed beast bomb at him. Minato did some hand signs and the boom was gone. Everyone thought that was that until there was a big explosion from far away. Looking back at Kurama I could see that hatred in his eyes. His eyes did have the sharingan but then it disappeared. 

I think he sensed my stare because he looked at me. And when I tell you the world stopped, I mean it stopped. I can see in his eyes he hates my clan and honestly I can see why. Being super scared my Sharingan activated on its own, "shit" I whispered. I will remember this look of hatred forever. 

He realized I was an Uchiha and threw his tail at me aiming for the kill. I knew I couldn't get away so I stood there. If God wants me to live, someone will help. 

I closed my eyes and felt someone grab me and when I opened my eyes I'm in a house. "What" I said confusedly, I looked around and saw red hair. 

"Ms Kushina, are you ok?" I said to her, She was laying down on a bed and looked extremely weak. "Ishi you're all right" she says she turns to look at me but I stop her. "No. Save your energy I will come to you" I said going to the other side of the bed next to a baby. 

"Is... this Naruto '' I asked "yes" she said, looking at him with such love. She noticed my sharingan was still activated and looked super surprised I had it. "Ishi your eyes' ' she looked so surprised that I cracked a smile. 

 "Yes Ms Kushina I have the sharingan and it's in the second stage" I smiled sadly "but you would be happy to know that one of the times this was of happiness" I said still smiling. "But why do you have it on? '' she asked weakly " I can't turn it off, it's like a defense mechanism". 

I said. A stray tear went down my face, I know she will not make it. "Don't cry '' she said, pulling me into a hug with Naruto in the middle, "it's gonna be ok" she kept whispering. "You know Ishi you're like the daughter I never had, you will grow up beautifully" I smiled. 

I didn't even notice that Minato came until he picked us up and transported us somewhere. "Gotta put up the barrier" Minato said out of breath, "my chakra is almost drained" Kushina said using her Uzumaki chains to restrain Kurama. Kurama growled and started to struggle. 

Kushina, losing her strength, quickly almost dropped Naruto, waking him up in the process. "Kushina" Minato called concerned, "sorry Naruto *huff *huff* I didn't mean to wake you" she apologized huffing. 

I watched with tears in my eyes as Kushina suggested that she will take the 9 tails to the grave with her and thanked Minato for everything. It's so hard to watch this in real life. 

I did cry when I saw this on screen but it's a whole different world when you're watching this in front of you. "Like... if I try to imagine surviving" Kushina started "and the three of us... living together. I can't think of anything... beyond that I'd be so happy". That made Minato cry. He was trying so hard not to... but he did. 

"If I had any regrets... it would be that I won't see Naruto grow up. Or Ishi '' she said, smiling her motherly smile. Minato took a moment to compose himself before coming up with another option. 

"Kushina, you don't need to take the fox with you. We can use our last bit of chakra to see Naruto one more time". 

"Huh" Kushina was confused. " I'll seal the last of your chakra in Naruto, with the eight trigrams seal," Minato explained. "Then I'll lead the nine-tails away, with a seal only a non-jinchuuriki like me can use. The dead demon seal" Minato said. 

"But that... the user will be-" she couldn't even finish the sentence. Minato said that the 9 tails would be too powerful for himself so they will give half of it to Naruto with the eight trigrams seal. Kushina had many concerns. Minato spoke of Jiraiya saying the world is undergoing a great revelation and with it a great disaster. Minato spoke of the masked man probably being the harbinger of the disaster. "And Naruto will be the one to stop him. The jinchuuriki who will blaze the trail of our future. I just know it" he spoke so highly. 

I saw the 3rd Hokage come from the corner of my eye with my parents in tow. "But Minato-'' Kushina tried to say he gave me Naruto and did the hand signs, for the reaper death seal. "Have a little faith. He is our son after all!" Kushina didn't say anything. 

"After I finish the dead demon seal I'll place your remaining chakra into Naruto as well." "You'll meet the grown-up Naruto sooner than you think. The time will come when he'll attempt to take control of the fox's power... I want you there to help him" Minato explained. 

"Our son... that's why! I don't want him to bear such a heavy burden all on his own!" Kushina said. We all stood in silence before Kushina screamed. "BUT WHY... WHY THE DEAD DEMON SEAL?!" She calmed down "I wanted you to be there for him... I wanted you to raise him! Why". "Why are you sacrificing NARUTO just to preserve the balance of the tail beasts... To save the village... and the country". 

"Why are you sacrificing yourself for me?!" Kushina panted. "Turning your back on the country, on the village. It's just as bad as abandoning a child" Minato said. " you should understand... You saw your own country fall apart. 

You know the pain of growing up without a home of you own. And you know that we are a family... of shinobi!" Minato said strongly. Kushina just stared. "Besides, even if I lived I could never substitute you for me." 

"Huh" Kushina eyes widened. "This isn't just for you... This is for Naruto!" He took Naruto from me and went to Kushina. "Dying to make a better life for his son... that's the stuff you let the father handle". 

They stared at each other for a moment before Minato got ready. A demon hand came out of Minato stomach and grabbed Kurama. 

I could almost hear his thoughts 'curse you, fourth Hokage!'. 

"Seal" Minato said before Kurama roared, Minato flinched looking to be in pain. Kurama started shrinking struggling to get out of the hold. "Now for the Eight Trigrams Seal! I'm going to seal the kyuubi inside Naruto" Minato said summoning a little bed with 9 candies around it. 

Minato place Naruto on the bed while I helped Kushina to them. Kushina started coughing up blood startling us, "Kushina stay with me" I felt the wind change and then something went on me. Something red and warm. 

Blood. It was blood. 

Kurama was going to stab Naruto but Minato and Kushina went in front impaling themselves. If I had any tears left I would've cried. "If the father can do this job... the mother should be even better right?" Kushina asked smiling. "DAMNED HUMANS!" Kurama screamed pissed. 

Kurama tried to move but they didn't allow that. "You win" Kushina admitted, " first argument ever one... I guess you're really serious" Kushina joked. "Thank you Kushina" Minato thanked before summoning a frog. "AAH THE NINE TAILS!" It screamed terrified. "AND FOURTH, WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOU!" "Gamatora... I'm intrusting you with the key to the seal. Hurry to Jiraiya-sensei... store it with him..." Minato said. 

"GOT IT. Good... Goodbye" he said disappearing. "That does it" Minato exhaled. "It's time for me to go, Kushina. I'm going to perform the eight trigram seal... and try to leave a little of my own chakra in Naruto, too!". 

"We don't have much time... if you have anything left to say to Naruto..." Minato says. Kushina takes a moment before saying "Naruto... Naruto... don't be a fussy eater... eat a lot and grow up to be a big boy!". 

"Take your bath everyday... go to bed early and sleep well! Make friends! It doesn't m-a-t-t-e-r h-o-w m-a-ny". 

My strength is wavering 'I've had the sharingan on for about 30 minutes and I'm already feel faint. For a 4 year old that's pretty good but I need to get stronger before I use it again'. 

"And the fourth warning... watch out for Jiraiya-sensei!" Kushina said as I came back to my senses. "Naruto... you're going to experience a lot of pain and suffering... Remember who you are." She continued. 

"Find a goal... a dream... and don't stop trying until it comes true! There's... There's... There's... There's so much more I want to say... to teach you about... I want to stay with you... I love you" Kushina said crying. Minato just watched in sadness as everything he loved broke apart. 

"I'm sorry Minato... I took all our time..." she apologized. "It's ok" Minato said "Naruto... This is your dad. Listen to your motor-mouth mother." He smiled. 

"Ishi grow up and have a nice life". They were ready after they saw Naruto smile. "Eight trigrams seal" he said as the nine tails disappeared. 

When they hit the ground Minato was dead and Kushina soon to be after. And Naruto started crying, I went over to stop him from crying but I fell. 

'Damn having no energy, sucks' I chuckled. I crawled over to Naruto and started rocking him back-and-forth. 

The bed was no longer there and the barrier Kushina put up went down. The ninja waiting there all ran towards me. 

Knowing I was safe I finally passed out due to chakra loss. Still holding Naruto I fell back only to land on something warm. I could guess it was my parents. 

'Ha what a day this was' I thought passing out.
