Chapter 1 Awakening
Kushina Uzumaki had said her final words to her little baby Naruto before succumbing to her wounds and the removal of her tailed beast while Minato Namikaze had died shortly before from his use of the Reaper Death Seal Jutsu. Their child Naruto Uzumaki was now an orphan and the newest jinchuuriki of the Kyubi.
"Naruto I am sorry it was not me who died so you can have both your parents but I promise you I will do everything in my power to keep you safe from here on now." Hiruzen Sarutobi the Sandaime Hokage said with a sigh as he picked up the blonde baby in his blanket. He quickly sent a signal to his Anbu who went back to the Hokage tower for further orders.
Hiruzen went to the bodies of his successor and his wife intending t o seal them up in a scroll to bury them afterwards but he saw a faint glow making him stop and hold onto Naruto protectively. There was a faint silver glow around Kushina's body and a golden glow around Minato's body.
"It can't be." Hiruzen said in disbelief. "They told me their godly selves would return back to that place after death." He murmured as he watched the glow continued to shine.
He got on his knees while holding Naruto and said reverently "My Lady, My Lord it is an honour and privilege."
"Hey little Sarutobi!" called out the golden light.
"Rise Hiruzen." The silver light said at the same time.
When they heard each other voices the lights turned to each other and gasped "It can't be YOU!" at the same time.
The lights pulled away from the dead bodies and formed into Godly beings. The Silver light turned into Artemis, Greek Goddess of the hunt, archery, wilderness, forests, the Moon, chastity, and childbirth. She was the daughter of the King of the Gods Zeus and the Titan Leto. She was currently in the form of beautiful red-haired woman in her early 20's with sharp piercing silver eyes. She was in full huntress gear but was unarmed looking at disbelief at the Godly being across from her.
The Golden Light had turned into the Greek god of the sun, light, healing, disease, plagues, music, art, poetry, archery, reason, knowledge, truth and prophecy. He was the younger twin of Artemis (despite his joking claims otherwise) being a son of Zeus and Leto. He was currently in the form a handsome man in his early 20's with tan skin, blue eyes and blond hair (looking similar to his mortal avatar Minato). He was a more casual outfit with shorts and Hawaiian shirt.
"Please Fates tell me I did NOT sleep with my little Sister when I was mortal!" Apollo pleaded dramatically ignoring Artemis glare at him.
"Shut up! If anyone is supposed to be disgusted its me! It might not be my true first time but my mortal self lost her virginity to YOU!" Artemis screamed while she kept shaking her head in denial.
"Um my lord and Lady?" Hiruzen said quietly still on his knees.
"Yes, what is it?" Artemis asked looking away from Apollo to the Sandaime Hokage temporally stopping their shouting match.
"You are scaring Naruto my Lady." Hiruzen said pointing at the now awake Naruto who was squirming around and whimpering.
Artemis immediately went quiet when she saw her baby boy. Two words she never thought would go together. She never believed she would get pregnant let alone have a child and even if she had a child, she expected it would be girl. For the First time in her immortal life she had no idea how to feel. Her original impulse was to dislike the child simply for being a boy but a much deeper longing in her heart quenched these thoughts. She remembered as Kushina Naruto growing in her stomach for 10 months and how elated she felt when she discovered she was pregnant.
However, Apollo had no such reservations and instantly ran up to his child with a massive grin. "Naruto! My little sunshine did you miss your daddy?" Apollo said with a coo as he went up to Naruto and started making silly faces at the small blonde baby. Hearing the warm voice and funny expressions Naruto calmed himself down and started gurgling happily making his dad even happier even minute.
Despite what Demigods and even Gods believed Apollo loved his children immensely. He went out of his way to claim every one of his demigod children as soon as they reached Camp Half Blood and was willing to hear the prayers of his children most of the time. He did not have any particular favourites but he secretly thought hearing this child right now Naruto may have taken his immortal heart forever.
Seeing Naruto happy squealing snapped Artemis from her thoughts and she knew what she had to do. She started walking towards Hiruzen and Apollo with a neutral expression making Hiruzen nervous while Apollo put an arm in front of them protectively.
Artemis stopped a foot away from them with a raised eyebrow. "Artemis." Apollo said sternly making Artemis surprised as she was sued to her brother calling her Arty just to annoy her but his expression and voice made her a bit on edge. "I love you but no matter what I will protect this child. So not even you will be safe from my wrath if you hurt this child no matter what you feel towards my gender." Apollo warned her with his eyes cold.
Artemis eyes widened before she looked down with a small smile. She knew he must've truly loved Naruto for Apollo to threaten her of all people. She looked Apollo in the eyes and said simply "I swear I will never harm this child. Can I please just hold my child in my arms?" Artemis eyes had grown soft and she pleaded which in itself was a shock. in over 4000 years Artemis had never pleaded as far as Apollo had known or shown this kind of expression. He looked her directly in the eyes for any signs of deceit.
After a tense minute he nodded to Hiruzen who lifted Naruto towards Artemis. She gently picked him up with a warm motherly smile as Naruto looked around confused. He felt himself leave the warmth of one person arms but then felt even safer and warmer in this new setting. He looked up to the beautiful silver eyes which looked soft as clouds as she peered down at him with love. "Naruto." Artemis said in pure love and hope as Naruto looked up and cooed raising his tiny arms.
Artemis kept him at her chest level and put one of her fingers near his chubby hands. Much to surprise and joy Naruto grabbed her finger with his tiny hands and pulled them towards his mouth chewing on them with his non existent teeth. This cemented his place in her heart forever as Apollo looked on with a warm smile and Hiruzen with a shock but pleased smile. Based on what he was told Artemis generally disliked males and he feared what would happen if she held her own male child.
Apollo walked up to Artemis and Naruto and put one hand gently on Naruto's whiskered cheeks making him rub his cheek against the warmth. Artemis noted his whiskers somehow made him even more cute and lovable in her eyes as she looked at Apollo who like her looked confused.
They no longer felt the same kind of love or intensity of that love when they were simply 2 mortals in love but they knew that their relationship could never be the same again especially with this child in their arms.
AN2: I am ending this chapter here but I do have alot of ideas for this. Please don't spam "OMG incest alert!" as EVERYONE in Greek mythology and even the book series is related in some degree due to how close immortal blood is.
I KNOW I am working on other stories and I should focus on them but guess what? If I get bored with writing I will stop with everything!
This idea just popped in my head and I had to write it down! Pairings are not going to be huge for this one mostly family but there could be one in the future if I choose to continue this.
