Konohagakure no sato

October 10

It was a peaceful day in Konohagakure no Sato as the Namikaze family was expecting their family to become bigger and livelier than ever before. Minato was ecstatic as he saw his pregnant wife walking beside him. Both of them had wide smiles on their faces ever since they heard the news last week from Biwako Sarutobi. She had told them that they were going to give birth to not one but three children that night. Kushina couldn't be happier as she thought of the lively atmosphere the house would have with such hyper Uzumaki triplets. None were aware of the dangers that were lurking in the dark shadows of the night.

"Damn you Minato, I'll kill you for putting me through this!" was a shout that was heard throughout the barriers of the secret hideout by the ANBU guarding it.

"It'll be all right Kushi-chan just push…" he was cut off as Kushina screamed again. He tried to hold the seal as stable as possible and pushed more chakra into it. Sweat dripped from his forehead showing the strain of holding down the strongest and mightiest of the bijuu down.

"What the hell do you think I am doing!?" she shouted as Minato wiped the sweat off her forehead with a wet cloth and urged her to push harder. Several screams later the crying of children was heard as Minato gazed at Biwako's arms, the arms that held three tiny bundles in her arms. His children, he was a father now. He couldn't even believe it as Biwako put two bundles in Kushina's arms and he gazed at them curiously. He could see the mane of the signature scarlet hair of his wife and pouted inwardly. Looks like all his children had taken after their mother he mused. Biwako saw his expression and smiled.

"Minato don't you worry not all of them took after Kushina." She said and his eyes widened as he gazed at the bundle in Biwako's arms and saw the mane of unruly blonde hair and grinned as a happy tear fell of his eye. Biwako smiled at his emotions and looked down as she saw the little bundle of joy open his cerulean blue eyes and she smiled.

"Looks like he takes after you completely Minato-kun, even the same eyes." She said and if it was possible his grin widened even more as he took a step forward gazing at his son. Suddenly he heard a gurgle and looked up to see blood leaking out of Biwako's mouth and his eyes widened. He saw as she fell to her knees and the stranger behind her came into his field of vision, causing his veteran shinobi eyes to harden. He saw the orange mask with a swirl pattern and a single hole for the right eye, but the thing that intrigued him the most was the three tomoe Sharingan in his visible eye. He saw as he took the bundle that had his son in his arms and pointed a kunai at his throat.

"Step away from the jinchuriki or the child dies." He said coldly and Minato nodded, holding his hands in a placating manner; trying to buy as much time as possible to think of a solution through this mess.

"Calm down we can talk this out peacefully." He said and the man chuckled causing him to narrow his hardened gaze on the stranger that was holding his son.

"Oh I am perfectly calm, but I think you don't love your son as much as I thought." He said throwing the bundle into the air and held his kunai up to slash him. Minato instantly channeled chakra to the soles of his feet, cracking the ground underneath and jumped to catch his son. He caught the bundle in mid-air and held him tightly to his chest like a lifeline. He saw the curious happy cerulean blue eyes of his son, the expression that showed he didn't know what was going on nor was he interested as he heard his happy gurgle and smiled. He was broken out of his thoughts as his feet stuck to the wall and he gazed back at the bed to see the man standing over his wife and his eyes narrowed dangerously.

"Finally, the jinchuriki is mine!" he said as Minato jumped to catch him but didn't make it in time. He saw as the man disappeared in a swirling vortex with his wife and picked up the two red-headed bundles. His eyes widened as he saw the exploding tags on them and threw the blankets away as he flashed to his safe house a mile or so outside the village. The tags exploding harmlessly in the bunker He skids on the ground and gazed down to the three in his arms to see them smiling innocently and sighed in relief.

He started to think back on the events that took place and his mind began to conclude the possible scenarios. Placing the children down in the bed he had in the hide out, he started concentrating and disappeared in a yellow flash, appearing in his house and put his children on the bed in his bedroom. He walked to the bedside table picking up a three-pronged kunai and closed his eyes, trying to find the marker on Kushina's seal disappearing in a yellow flash.

The man with the orange mask came into existence in a swirling vortex. Kushina came to on a pre-set holding stand as some chains of Kanji made from a holding fuinjutsu held her down. Kushina looked down as she saw her seal on the verge of breaking, then gazed at the man in front of her panting from the strain of childbirth. She glared at him though he showed no signs of noticing. She felt her head lighten as she saw his spinning tomoes in his eye, the man smirked under his mask as he entered the mindscape to her seal.

The Nine-Tailed Fox was chained up to a crater of lava, suddenly though he felt a presence that was foreign to him and turned his eyes down. He growled as he saw those dreaded eyes he despised so much.

"You!" he roared as he felt anger bubble up within him and roared at the man who stood unflinching, making him snarl even more.

"It's time you knew who your master is Nine-Tails, and serve him." The man said calmly as the Nine-Tailed fox roared a roar that would have made any lesser man faint.

"Make no mistake Uchiha, you will die and pay for this!..." he was cut off as he gazed into those spinning tomoes of his eye and his eye copied the pattern. A moment later the tomoe in Nine Tail's eyes stopped and his eye had a round pupil instead of the slit one, showing the proof of his possession.

"Yes finally the time has come, I've waited so long for this night…" he cackled as he exited the mindscape.

The masked man came back to his senses completely as red chakra bubbled out from Kushina's seal. It started covering her and a huge glob of demonic chakra came out, a moment later taking the shape of the Nine-Tailed Fox, the king of the bijuus and the mightiest of the nine. He bowed down to the masked man who smirked beneath his mask and turned around walking away from the redheaded women laying on the ground.

"You won't get away with this…" whispered Kushina as he stopped dead in his tracks and turned around to meet the gaze of her violet eyes.

"Amazing, you Uzumaki really are something else all right. To think, you are alive even after having a tailed beast extracted from you. But no matter, I'll take care of it now…. Kyuubi end her!" he ordered turning to the demon, who lifted his paw and aimed his claw at the completely vulnerable Kushina. She closed her eyes awaiting her death, when she felt someone pick her up and a strange pull. She opened her eyes to see the gently smiling face of Minato and smiled weakly in return.

"You really are as fast as they say, Yellow Flash." the masked man said, as Minato turned around and gave him a cold glare. He hadn't seen such cold eyes in anyone, so those were the eyes of a shinobi who took on a thousand shinobi on his own unflinching. Minato turned around as he closed his eyes sensing the beacon at his safe house, in the bedroom and disappeared in a yellow flash.

The village was going on about peacefully, completely unaware of the events that had just transpired or were about to transpire. Itachi sat in his house with little Sasuke on his lap when a sudden feeling of dread and malevolence fell across the village as Sasuke started crying in his arms. He himself shivered as he tried to calm his little brother down.

All of a sudden there was a puff of smoke in the middle of the village, startling everyone. The villagers gazed as the smoke cleared and their heart dropped and blood ran cold. The figure of the Nine-Tailed Fox swirled his massive tails around in all his glory with a massive roar.

"It's the Nine Tails!" many of them shouted as they started running away from the beast who started tearing apart through everything that came into its field of vision.

An ANBU came to the office in a Shunshin as he spoke up hurriedly.

"Hokage-sama the Nine-Tails…" he was cut off as Hiruzen spoke up putting on the last pieces of his battle gear.

"I know, try and hold it off and I'll come and try to suppress it as best as I could without Minato." He said and the ANBU nodded and vanished in another smokeless Shunshin as he put his helmet on.

"Hiruzen we should keep the Uchiha out of the way for now…" said a voice as he turned around to see Danzo and nodded.

"Do what you want and handle the security of the village. Evacuate as many as you can safely to the bunkers. I'll go and fend off the beast." He said in an urgent tone of voice as the crippled war hawk nodded and went about to carry out his orders and Hiruzen jumped out to take charge of the battle in the village.

The shinobi forces including all of the special Jonin, elite Jonin, and the ANBU were throwing jutsu after jutsu from a range to keep it at bay as the Chunin and Genin evacuated the battle zones.

"Fire Style: Fire Ball Jutsu!" many Jonin and ANBU shouted as they launched an inferno of flames at the beast. The Kyuubi just looked at it and gave it a massive roar blowing away the flames.

"Damn it, nothing works we have been at it with everything. Where is Yondaime-sama?" cursed Ibiki as he looked around and sighed in relief as Hiruzen, clad in his battle gear came into his field of vision.

"Sandaime-sama, what should we do? And where is Yondaime-sama?" he asked and Hiruzen gazed at the destruction and was mortified by it. If this went on any longer then there won't be a village to protect. He instantly bit his thumb, going through hand seals and slammed his blood smeared palm on the ground.

"Ninja Art: Summoning Jutsu - Monkey King Enma!" he said as there was a puff of smoke and Monkey King Enma stood proudly and gazed at the battlefield than at the beast, turning to Sarutobi.

"Sarutobi why the hell is the Kyuubi free? And why is it attacking the village?" he asked and Hiruzen sighed.

"I don't know Enma, but let's just stop him and try and subdue him until Minato comes." He said and Enma nodded as he held the ram hand seal.

"Transformation: Adamantine Staff!" he said and transformed into a black staff as Hiruzen twirled it around and got into his bojutsu stance. He flared his chakra as the beast stopped and turned to him with a snarl. Hiruzen launched himself at the beast and slammed his Adamantine staff on its head slamming it back a bit as he growled in defiance. Hiruzen jumped back and was readying his staff for another go when he saw a tail of the beast coming from his blindside and slammed into his abdomen and crashed him into a nearby house.

"Sandaime-sama!" the shinobi shouted as they saw him getting taken down when he came out of the rubble and cleaned his mouth of the excess blood with a smirk.

"Everyone try and push it away, when I engage it hit it with your wide range jutsu from its blindside and try and push him outside the village walls." He shouted and they all nodded as he went through a long chain of hand seals and ended on a strange seal making Enma's eye widen in shock and a smirk to come across him inwardly.

"Finally getting serious are we Sarutobi?" he asked and Hiruzen nodded as he molded a huge amount of chakra cracking the ground underneath him.

"Forbidden Secret Art: God's Strength!" he shouted as the muscles on his body buffed up and nerves started showing across them. His muscles and chakra coils were flooded with chakra to the point of their limits. He twirled around his staff and entered his stance, launching himself at the beast at blinding speeds and slammed his staff in its stomach pushing it back. The Kyuubi slid across the ground, falling down as it roared in defiance. It was near the walls of the village as the surrounding shinobi started going through their own hand seals.

"Earth Style: Earth Dragon Jutsu!/ Fire Style: Dragon Flame Bullet!" they shouted in unison as a huge torrent of molten earth converged on the bijuu who brought five of his tails in front of him blocking them and used the rest to take out the roof where the shinobi were standing and gave a loud roar startling them. The Kyuubi molded chakra in its mouth as it released a huge torrent of flames powered up by its potent demonic chakra and launched it at the shinobi forces making their eyes widen as they didn't have time to counter it.

"Earth Style: Mud Wall!" Hiruzen shouted as a huge wall of mud formed in front of them but to his horror, it tore right through it and followed on its path.

"EVERYONE WATCH OUT!" he shouted but knew there was nothing they could do to stop it when he heard a shout.

"Water Style: Water Severing Wave!" all of them heard as a huge tidal wave of water came from above them, not touching them in the slightest and collided with the inferno creating a huge amount of steam.

"Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!" all of them heard again and a huge gust of wind blew the steam away as their eyes turned behind to see the stoic face of Tobirama Senju as he walked to them and they cheered seeing their savior.

"It's Nidaime-sama!" they cheered in unison as Tobirama walked up to Hiruzen. Hiruzen smiled at seeing his sensei, even though the signs of old age on his face he still showed how capable he was as a ninja just through his performance now and the way he held himself.

"Saru, why is the Kyuubi out and attacking the village?" he asked stoically and Hiruzen frowned.

"I don't know sensei, something must have gone wrong with Kushina's seal." He said and Tobirama nodded crossing his arms over his chest as they gazed at the Kyuubi trying to get back up from the last attack.

"Where the hell is Minato, why isn't he taking charge of the village?" he asked stoically and Hiruzen shook his head.

"We don't know where he is sensei, he hasn't been seen or heard from yet. All I have heard is that the hideout where Kushina was to give birth is destroyed and there weren't their bodies there. So I know they escaped but what happened of that I am not too sure." He said and Tobirama nodded as he turned his gaze to the beast who stood up and roared at them as Tobirama flared his chakra forming a blue coating around him, showing the density and power his chakra held as the ground cracked beneath him. All the shinobi including Hiruzen watched in awe the power he was emanating even at this old an age and he turned to Hiruzen with those cold veteran eyes.

"Hiruzen go on and attack it head on, I'll provide you with support with the help from the other shinobi. I myself am not capable of taking it on single-handedly at my age now but I will do what I can to help until the Yondaime arrives and seals it." He said and Hiruzen nodded, now more confident in his ability to push the beast back as he charged at the Kyuubi and Tobirama and the shinobi provided him with the cover.

At the Namikaze household…

Minato appeared in his bedroom in a yellow flash as he put down Kushina besides the triplets and walked back to the closet and fetched his cloak as he put it on. Kushina cried as she hugged the triplets and whispered.

"Minato what are you going to do?" she asked and Minato sighed.

"I'll stop the Kyuubi and reseal it into our children by splitting it up. Menma and Mito will be able to hold the chakra of the beast at bay seeing they have taken completely after you. And Naruto seeing has taken after me, we'll seal the soul and consciousness of the beast in him. He'll be able to overcome the influence of the beast without any problems." He said and Kushina cried harder.

"Minato do we have to do this and how will you seal the beast without using the Reaper Death seal?" she asked and he smiled at her for reassurance.

"Tobirama-sama has taught me the combination of the Four Way Cross Symbol Seal that Mito-sama used to seal the Kyuubi in herself. We'll be there with the children to help them through this don't worry. The village will accept my children as one of their own, of that I have no doubt. Don't worry." He said and she nodded as he focused on the beacon on top of the Hokage Monument and disappeared in a yellow flash.

Minato appeared on top of the Hokage monument in a yellow flash and saw as the Kyuubi stopped in between of his battles and gazed at him. The three tomoe pattern appeared in its eye for a moment as its gaze landed on him and he roared in defiance.

"It's under his complete control and is out to kill me and destroy the village." He thought as he saw the Kyuubi gather compressed it's black demonic chakra as it started to take the form of a ball and launched it at him as well as the people in the shelters in the mountain. Spinning a kunai in around his finger he held it out as kanji appeared in front of him and the Bijuudama stopped making contact with it and started getting absorbed into the seal. As soon as it was absorbed completely, Minato flicked the three-pronged kunai in his hand as the kanji disappeared in a yellow flash and a blast rocked the village several miles outside of the village. The people cheered seeing their beloved Hokage come and Minato felt a presence behind him. He slashed the kunai in the head of the orange masked stranger, the cause of all that had happened in the night and his eyes widened as the kunai phased right through his head, and the man caught his wrist as he chuckled.

"It's over." He said as Minato started getting absorbed in a swirling vortex and the man laughed when suddenly he disappeared in a yellow flash making him growl.

"That damn jutsu is getting annoying." He snarled as he teleported to Minato's presence, letting the Kyuubi have his share of destruction until he cut the pillar on which the village stood.

In a clearing outside the village…

Minato landed skidding on the ground as he came to a halt and stood up picking up the three-pronged kunai in his hand and thought about everything that had happened.

'He broke through the village security, the barrier I set up for protection, dealt with the ANBU and the guards at the hideout with enough stealth that I didn't even sense him approaching me until he made himself know. He has a Sharingan and can control the Kyuubi. The only one who could do that was Madara, but he can't be him. I know that isn't possible then who?' he thought as the masked man swirled into existence in front of him and he glared at him coldly.

"Who are you and why are you doing this?" he asked and the man chuckled a childish laugh making him narrow his eyes.

"Oh who I am is not important, but why I did this. Hmm perhaps it is merely a whim?" He said chuckling as chains dropped from his sleeves and Minato got ready channeling chakra to his feet. Both launched themselves at each other, Minato stabbed the man through his face with his kunai but it phased right through again. As soon as he was out of contact of the man the chains phased back and tried to cleave him as he disappeared in a yellow flash and appeared a few feet away at a kunai on the ground and picked it up analyzing everything.

"He can phase in and out of existence at will. But to attack he will have to come back to being tangible again, in the end, it all comes down to who is faster and that is something I can have faith in myself at all times." He thought and stood up as he faced the man and held his palm out. He channeled chakra into his palm as the swirling sound of his signature jutsu filled the clearing and a blue swirling ball of chakra was in his hand and the three-pronged kunai in the other at the ready. Both glared at each other, one with icy cold blue eyes and the other with his lone Sharingan as a leaf came floating in front of them, the leaf gently touching the ground as both combatants charged in once again.

Minato pulled his hand back with the swirling blue chakra ball humming as he pumped and compressed more chakra into it and threw the kunai in his hand at the face of the masked man and it phased right through as both brought their hands at each other to make the first blow. The orange masked man smirked under his mask as he saw that he was going to win and just as soon as his hand was about to make contact, Minato disappeared in his signature flash appearing over him catching the kunai and slammed it into his back. The masked man felt the jutsu grinding him in the back and was slammed into the ground hard as Minato flipped back a few feet away from him.

"He teleported to the kunai he threw earlier in mid-air! When did he get so fast to do that? How far has he developed that accursed jutsu that I don't know about it!" the man snarled in his thoughts as his right arm melted and fell down and his eyes widened as Minato again disappeared and came in front of him jabbing the kunai in his stomach and put his hand on his chest as Kanji covered him.

"Damn it! He marked me earlier when he attacked me, and this is a contract seal. He put it on me with just a mere touch! He's ruined all of my plans!" he thought as he furiously glared at the blankly staring Minato and clenched his teeth in anger.

"With this, the Kyuubi no longer belongs to you. Your plans have failed." He said and the man growled.

"Make no mistakes Yondaime, I'll be back and take the Kyuubi with me. You may have defeated me today but the next time won't be the same." He hissed as he clutched his bleeding stomach and started disappearing in the swirling vortex and out of existence as he escaped his presence and Minato looked back as he saw a purple barrier outside the village and focused on the nearest beacon to the barrier and disappeared in a yellow flash.

Hiruzen was slamming the Kyuubi as he was dodging its tails left and right and going in for the attacks at the openings Tobirama was providing him. They had pushed the Kyuubi back enough that it was just outside the village walls and Tobirama saw the chance to contain the beast.

"Hiruzen, it is time!" he shouted and Hiruzen nodded instantly forming the signature cross hand seal for the jutsu as a Shadow Clone popped beside him and Tobirama did the same though without any hand seals as they jumped into positions taking four corners around the beast and started going through a long chain of hand seals simultaneously and held the ram seal at the end.

"Sealing Art : Four Purple Rays Formation!" the four shouted in unison as a purple barrier was erected around the beast as the Kyuubi roared and slammed its paw on the barrier and the ground shook but the barrier held as it tried and slam itself in the barrier to break out and sweat formed on Tobirama's forehead while the people behind him were cheering seeing the beast being contained.

"Damn it now I feel the age kicking in. I could have held the Red barrier by myself for a few minutes a few years back but now even the purple formation with help from Hiruzen is taking its toll on me…" his thoughts were broken as he saw the beast charge up a Bijuudama and his eyes widened as he realized the barrier wouldn't hold against an attack of that magnitude. Hiruzen saw his sensei's heavy breathing and knew the strain it was putting on him and came to the same conclusion seeing the attack when they heard a shout.

"Ninja Art Summoning : Food Cart Destroyer!" all of them heard as a red toad with a blue jacket and a tanto on his side appeared over the bijuu and slammed over his head dissipating the Bijuudama as the beast roared in defiance when the tomoes in its eyes spun backward and its eyes became slit again. Tobirama saw the change and narrowed his eyes at the bijuu.

"It's about time Minato, let's seal the beast." Shouted Hiruzen and Minato nodded as he concentrated on molding his chakra and gazed at Tobirama intently.

"Tobirama-sama form the seal and teleport us out of here while maintaining the barrier. I'll synchronize with you and share the chakra cost." He said and Tobirama nodded as he too closed his eyes and held his palms on the barrier and Kanji started covering the barrier while on the inside Kanji was covering Gamabunta and the Kyuubi.

"Hiraishin combination: Two Way Crossing Flash!" both shouted in unison as they disappeared in a flash and appeared outside the village many miles out and Tobirama panted breathing heavily and Hiruzen had his eyes wide as he saw the jutsu his sensei just pulled off.

'Amazing to think he could still teleport such massive creatures with the barrier holding them even at this age is truly amazing.' He thought amazed at the skill of his teacher and gazed at Minato who was breathing a bit heavy.

"Minato seal the beast and hurry it up. I won't be able to hold the barrier for too long." He shouted holding the ram seal and reinforced the fading barrier as it breathed back to life and Minato nodded as he disappeared in a yellow flash back to the beacon in his bedroom. He reappeared a moment later and they saw the three bundles in his arms and Tobirama was confused as to why he needed three vessels for the beast.

"Minato why have you brought all three of your children. I know the beast is massive, but two shall suffice." He said and Minato nodded his face emotionless as he answered.

"Indeed you are right Tobirama-sama, but the man who controlled the Kyuubi tonight will come back to retrieve it. I will split the Yin and Yang chakra separately in my twin redheaded children seeing their strong Uzumaki chakra, which I know you must be able to sense too…" he said and Tobirama nodded. "And I'll split the soul of the Kyuubi from the chakra and seal it into Naruto since I'm sure he would be able to control and subdue the influence of the bijuu the best." He said and Tobirama was confused as he focused on the blonde child and his eyes widened as he recognized the faint amounts of familiar chakra signature and gazed back at Minato who smiled and nodded.

Minato went through hand seals and slam his palms on the ground as a ritual altar was summoned and he put his three children over them. Tobirama saw the Kyuubi trying to turn his head back to look at what was going on while Gamabunta tried to hold him down as best as he could but knew he would be able to turn around.

"No he must not realize what is going on, he might attack the children if it realizes it is being sealed again…" he thought as he started going through hand seals and ended on tiger as he concentrated and molded a huge amount of chakra taking away most of his remaining reserves.

"Ninja Art: Bringer of Darkness!" he said and caught the bijuu in his genjutsu as he kept pumping chakra through the jutsu and the bijuu snarled as he was blinded by the jutsu.

"Damn it, I don't have the chakra to maintain it for long and this is the only genjutsu that will work on the mightiest of the bijuu. I'll try and stall it as best as I can…" he thought as he went through more hand seals and ended on boar.

"Ninja Art: Demonic Illusion Heaven and Hell Binding!" he said as he layered another genjutsu over his previous one and smirked as the beast was too busy breaking out of the first to realize that it was caught in the second.

"Perfect, it is only a C-rank genjutsu but it will do the job with my other technique. He won't even realize that his chakra is being split apart from it until it's too late." He thought with a smirk as he kept pumping chakra into both his genjutsu though the second was only a minor draining high chunin level technique. Hiruzen saw as Tobirama popped a soldier pill into his mouth and the way he was breathing heavily which reminded him that his sensei was not in his prime and was near the end of his ninja career.

"Minato, the bijuu is under my genjutsu. Hurry up and seal it before I run out of chakra" He said and Minato nodded as he started going through a long chain of hand seals and placed his palms on Mito as he split the Yin chakra of the Kyuubi and it started getting absorbed in the seal as the seal glowed and stabilized turning black as a four-sided Uzumaki spiral formed on her stomach. He did the same with Menma and the seal stabilized as he panted heavily, the strain of the day catching up to him even with his Kage level reserves and knew Tobirama was doing worse than him as he moved to Naruto for the final part of the seal. The Kyuubi was left with only enough chakra not to dissipate completely to reform and was now nothing but a large fox with a bit of demonic chakra in him as he went through the same hand seals and placed his hands over Naruto's stomach as Tobirama finally ran out of chakra and fell to his knees panting. The barrier fell along with the genjutsu as the bijuu's eyes widened as he felt his chakra so low that he hadn't felt in centuries and saw Minato on the final seals about to seal him again and snarled as he thrashed and threw Gamabunta off him.

"I will not be sealed again you Pathetic Human!" He snarled and launched his claw to cleave Naruto to keep him from being sealed. All three pairs of eyes widened as the claw raced towards little Naruto.

*SPLACK ugh*

The voice was heard throughout the clearing as Tobirama and Hiruzen watched in horror as the claw pierced through Minato's stomach and he held his legs on the altar stooping it inches from making contact with Naruto and coughed up blood as he turned his gaze to Tobirama.

"Tobirama-sama *cough* please complete the sealing *cough cough*…" he said hacking out blood as he placed his hands on the claw of the beast and Kanji covered him along with the beast.

"Forbidden Secret Art: Two Way Paralysis Seal" he whispered as both he and the Kyuubi became paralyzed as the forbidden jutsu took effect. The jutsu was forbidden by Mito Uzumaki because it took its strength from a person's life force and held the strength to paralyze anything. Minato knew he wouldn't survive the wound anyways so he couldn't care less. Tobirama rushed to the ritual altar along with Hiruzen as he went through Hiruzen's storage seal hurriedly confusing him and took out another soldier pill popping it in his mouth as he started going through blazing fast hand seals.

"Uzumaki Sealing Style : Four Way Cross Symbol Seal!" he shouted as he channeled the pump of chakra granted to him by the pill and the last of the beast's little chakra and its soul was absorbed into the seal and he held a half ram seal as he concentrated on the glowing red seal as the Kyuubi tried to break it and Tobirama pumped it full of chakra holding a half ram seal.

"Fuin!" he shouted as the seal glowed and stabilized turning black and faded into his skin color and Minato dropped to the ground as Hiruzen caught him and turned to Tobirama who nodded and held a half ram seal crouching down in front of him, ready to Hiraishin them to the hospital. His eyes opened and his concentration broke as he saw Minato holding his hand and shaking his head with a sad smile.

"It's too late for me and you know it *cough cough*…" he said coughing up blood as Tobirama smiled in regret and nodded as a lone tear dropped from his eye when he saw Minato gazing at the ritual altar and at Naruto and he stood up as he brought the little child to his arms and Minato took him with a smile. He brushed the faint whisker-like birthmarks his son had with a smile as he thought of the burden he had placed on him.

"Menma and Mito will have the demonic chakra to fall back to if they ever run into trouble when that man returns. Naruto might not have the power of the beast but what if the man decides to come after him to take the soul of the Kyuubi to completely tame its power? What will he have to protect himself? Yes that's it he'll inherit my legacy…" he thought as he pulled out a scroll from behind him with the Namikaze seal and put two of his fingers on Naruto's stomach and closed his eyes, conjuring up the last of his chakra as he sealed the scroll into his stomach in a blood sealed storage seal only accessible by Naruto's blood and chakra and smiled as he saw the cerulean blue eyes of his son watching him curiously and kissed his cheek and brushed the cheeks of his two other children in Hiruzen's arms. Hiruzen smiled as he tried to give him the children in his arms when they fell down and his eyes widened as he saw Minato's eyes closed and head drop with a smile. Tobirama put two fingers on his neck and felt no pulse as another tear rolled down his eye and he picked up Naruto from his arms and shook his head telling Hiruzen he was no more and he too teared up at the loos the village had suffered from his death. The ANBU came and surrounded them as they stood in silence with their heads down in respect to their fallen hero.

NXSE: There is the rewrite of the first chapter. My Previous take had way too many flaws to capitalize on them with a good approach so I redid it to my satisfaction. I have read some reviews stating my problem of long sentences and I have tried to rectify them and will try them in the future too. I thank you for the negative criticism and please tell me if any more flaws are there and I'll try and fix them. This fic will be a strict Naruto x Hinata, my first NaruHina attempt and I hope I can do it well since I absolutely adore Hinata. Well let's see if you guys like it and review it if you want to read it in the future updates. So until next time keep reading and reviewing Ja Ne ;)

Eto here, just reiterating chapter 1-18 are all NXSE's work, please support the original author!

AN: Alrighty then, this chapter is fully edited and ready for reading! So, the changed I made to this chapter are simple really, no plot changes. I just fixed a bunch of grammar mistakes as well as changed jutsu names to their canon names, as well as removed some redundant sentences for reader friendly paragraphs that type of stuff. May finish a couple more chapters today. Bye!
