The Three Jinchuuriki

Prologue
~October 10th~

"The Nibi, Nanabi, and Kyuubi... They're... They're almost upon the Village Gates! We can't hold them back any longer." yelled a bloodied Konaha Jonin while pointing at the three Bijuu approaching.

Meanwhile, standing above the main village gates was an old man who didn't look like much - some would think at first glance that he didn't belong on the battlefield. But right now he was the villages only hope at this horrible time. He was The Sandaime Hokage although he wasn't the current village leader anymore he was still one of the strongest shinobi inside the village. He took a puff of his pipe and exhaled a stream of smoke before setting it down. He moved his gaze on three Bijuu approaching while he started shouting orders to the nearly wiped out shinobi army around him.

"Calm yourselves! All we have to do is hold them back until the Yondaime's plan preparations are finished. Do not throw your lives away needlessly. These foes power is way beyond any of our understandings. ANBU try to push the beasts back away from the village and into the forest. We will need space for the Yondaime's Plan." The Sandaime ordered.

All the shinobi regained their hope and stability after receiving the Sandaime's orders. ANBU began throwing multiple elemental jutsus at the Bijuu over and over again though it didn't harm them it still got them to move about two miles back into a clearing.

~Hospital~

In one of the rooms there is a mother who just finished giving birth to a healthy baby boy and a father taking care of two other children.

"Kushina-chan, I'm so sorry but this is the only way the Bijuu can be stopped from destroying the village and our friends." The father - a blond haired shinobi - said softly to the new mother and his wife.

"But why? Why does it have to be them Minato? They are just babies, so why does it have to be them? Do you not care for them? You know what will happen to them as they grow up." cried a very weak Kushina while she looked at the three children "Mebuki and Hizashi trusted us with their daughters before they died fighting the fox and you decide to use them as containers for the Bijuu!" Kushina yelled at her husband.

She was a beautiful woman with red silky hair that flowed down to her lower back and eyes that shined blue like the ocean. She was strong physically and emotionally, but her personalty told you she hates fighting and didn't understand why people chose violence over peace.

Minato smiled down at his weeping wife "Because it has to be them, they are our only hope now, only they can control the Bijuu and I can't ask anyone else for their child and I can only hope Hizashi and Mebuki will understand why I'm about to do this."

He leaned down kissed his wife's forehead and caressed her face as if trying to memorize every detail of it.

"I love you and forgive me Kushina." were his last words as he put on his signature cloak that had The Forth Hokage written on the back as he turned and grabbed the kids, and disappeared in his signature yellow flash.

When Minato disappeared along with the kids Kushina looked at the ceiling of the room and started feeling the after effects of giving birth and that was when she knew that she and Minato were going to die.

~Forest~

The Bijuu, getting sick of their games got ready to launch their most powerful and devastating attacks on the rest of the shinobi left until a huge puff of smoke covered the battlefield. When the smoke cleared it revealed the Yondaime Hokage on top of a giant toad. "I'm sorry I'm late all of you... I got lost on the way here" the Yondaime stated with a sheepish grin while rubbing the back of his head causing all the shinobi plus the demons and giant toad to sweat drop and/or do an anime fall.

"Now, everyone get away from here and get medical attention to anyone who needs it" Minato ordered now turning serious and taking command of the shinobi under him as he is their current hokage.

The shinobi were hesitant to leave their leader to fight not only one or two, but three demon lords but they reluctantly followed the Yondaime's orders leaving only him and Gamabunta to fight.

Minato looked to towards the Giant Nine Tailed Fox, Two Tailed Cat, and Four Winged-Three Tailed Horn Beetle, and then transported the three babies to alter for the sealing. Then went through a particular set of hand signs while Gamabunta held off the Bijuu for as long as he could. (The hand sign series he did consisted of these hand signs Snake, Boar, Ram, Rabbit, Dog, Rat, Bird, Horse, Snake, and then clap your hands.) Just as he clapped his hands Gamabunta had to reverse summon back o Mount Myboku due to having low chakra and he started the jutsu.

"Fūinjutsu: Shiki Fūjin (Sealing Technique: Dead Demon Consuming Seal)" Minato shouted then used the reaper to cut each of the Bijuu's power in half then walked over to the kids and did the tiger hand seal, then said "Hakke no Fūin Shiki (Eight Trigrams Sealing Style)" while touching the blond haired baby stomach to seal the other half of the Kyuubi in him. Minato did the same for the purple haired baby with the Nanabi and the Nibi was sealed in the pink haired baby. He then rashined them outside the village gates and summoned the Sandaime then said "Sarutobi... I need to ask you a favor." almost out of breath

"Yes Minato, what do you need?" Sarutobi asked

Minato looked the old man in the eye "I want you to do everything in your power to make sure Naruto-kun, Sakura-chan, and Hinata-chan stay protected. You know how Danzo is when it comes to power and if they fall into his hands they would become emotionless drones to do his dirty work. They are outside the village in a clearing by the gate, take them back to Kushina and thanks old man for everything." he said before falling to the ground as his heart stopped beating.

The Sandaime called some ANBU to carry Minato's body back to the village as he shunshined towards the clearing and grabbed the children before heading back to the village ready to take the mantle of Hokage once again. As he walked through the village people could see three bundles in his arms but if one looked closely enough they would see that the bundles were actually babies and not just any babies the saviors of Konaha Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto, Huuyga Hinata, and Haruno Sakura. Not saying anything to anyone the Sandaime headed straight for the hospital room where Kushina was resting after the long birth quickly and knocked on the door.

...No Reply

He knocked again

...No Reply

Worried he opened the door only to see that Namikaze-Uzumaki Kushina was dead the birth of Naruto being too hard on her and she couldn't last.

With a solemn look in his eyes Sarutobi walked out of the room with the kids still resting happily in his arms. He looked down at all three of them with a grandfatherly smile but frowned when he thought about the council and what they would try to do when they found out about this.

Boy was he about to go through hell.
