Chapter 1: A New World Awakening
Minato Namikaze looked at his son proudly as the Edo Tensei was deactivated. He felt his temporary body fade away as his son kept telling him reasons not to worry about him.
"A-and tell mom that… I'll be fine! So there's no need to worry!" Minato watched as his son looked down, hiding his tears. He was glad since he too was close to crying. He had never felt more proud.
'We did good Kushina. Our son turned out just the way we wanted.' Minato thought as he faded away. 'I'm coming. I'll see you soon.'
Despite his wishes, fate had other plans.
Crash!
Minato woke with a jolt. His senses were screaming at him to move, telling him he was in danger. He looked around and quickly assessed the situation.
He seemed to be trapped in a steel box (Car) with two other people. One was a beautiful brown haired woman in her early to mid twenties and the other was a handsome man with long blond hair similar to his own who was around the same age as the woman.
The danger seemed to be coming from the front of the steel box. A strange contraption had caught fire, and Minato quickly guessed it would explode soon.
Crashed into the front of the box was a larger box (Semi-Truck) which had flipped on it's side. Several people surrounded the two boxes, looking on with concern.
Minato quickly thought through his options. He couldn't use any elemental Jutsu without agitating the device in the front of the box, or without harming the surrounding civilians.
That left him with one option. He quickly looked around and found what looked like a school bag. He opened it up, looking for a brush and a scroll. He found a blank book full of paper, but no brush. Pulling things out, he accidentally poked his finger on a strange tube like thing (Pen). Seeing that it drew on his skin, he decided to use it.
Channeling his chakra into the ink with a bit of difficulty, he quickly got to work drawing the seal which he had drawn a thousand times. It took him around 5 minutes, but he finally had his seal. He placed the seal on a device made out of metal and glass (Phone) and threw it at the window with a chakra enhanced arm. It broke the glass window, and landed a few meters away. He could see people looking on with confusion.
Minato quickly grabbed the two in the front of the box and activated the seal, causing the three of them to appear in front of the device.
People cheered, and he heard one man say, "Oh, what a cool quirk!" Minato looked at the man and was reminded of one of Orochimaru's experiments. He had a deformed body that looked like it had been fused with a furry creature. The man also seemed to be about twice his size… or not. Minato looked down at himself and saw that he was only around 140cm tall.
It was as if he were a kid again…
Minato shook his head, and decided to leave that for later. He picked up the device and threw it towards the larger steel box. It crashed through the front window, and Minato activated the seal once more. He grabbed the overweight man in the front seat who smelled of booze, and threw the poor, broken and abused device back to where he had left the other couple.
With a flash, he appeared next to them. At that moment, the smaller metal box finally exploded.
It was right after the explosion that something appeared out of the sky.
A large man with heavily developed muscles and a comically large smile landed next to the boxes. "There's no need to fear! Why? Because I'm… too late, aren't I?" The last part was muttered under his breath, quietly enough that only Minato was able to hear it. (1)
The man looked at the flaming wreckage before he ran at it, showing off a speed that even Minato found hard to keep up with. The man grabbed the top of the car and with a grunt, he ripped the top of it off. Since Minato sensed no chakra coming from the man, that strength came from his natural strength alone.
The man looked into the car, and realized there was no one there.
"All Might! There's no need to worry! This young man got everyone out before the explosion." A man wearing a strange uniform said, placing his hand on the boy's shoulder.
The large blond man now known as All Might walked over, never losing his smile. "Officer, is what you said true?"
The man seemed shocked that the hero was this close to him. "Y-yes sir! You should have seen it! The boy's quirk seems to be teleportation! He saved all of these people in a 'flash.' It seems like quite the quirk."
The hero nodded, and looked down at Minato. "Good job!" After he said this, Minato could swear he heard theatrical music playing in the background. "When your back is backed against a wall, you must go beyond! Plus Ultra!"
"Plus Ultra!" The people around them yelled.
Minato looked around confusedly. All Might knelt next to the small boy. "What's wrong young man?"
"Where am I? Also, what's a quirk?" At this question, the surrounding people, including All Might blanked.
The large heroic man looked at the boy, and yelled, "Oh no! Amnesia? How cruel!" Minato could guess that this man had a flare for the theatrics.
After those events had passed, Minato was taken along with the couple to the hospital. From what he could gather, he was in a place called 'Japan,' and the couple was actually his parents.
His mother was a woman by the name of Kira Namikaze. As previously stated, she was quite beautiful. She had short cut brown hair and dark blue eyes. His father's name was Akiro Namikaze, and he looked a lot like Minato when he was an adult except he kept his hair much shorter and had a much more muscular body compared to Minato as an adult.
Minato looked just like himself when he was a 12 year old. He was slightly below the average height, standing at 147 cm tall (roughly 4'8). He was skinny, with almost no muscle or fat on him. His outfit was simple, with black track pants, black sneakers and a gray hoodie with blue highlights.
Well, that's what he was wearing before they got to the hospital at least. He now wore a white gown and laid in a hospital bed. An old, bald man walked in and sat down. He appeared to be a doctor.
The man cleared his throat and pulled out a clipboard. "Hello once again young man. It appears as if you have amnesia due to the car crash. Although you usually regain your memories after a few hours to a few days, based on the fact that you don't know what a cell phone or a car is, you might have an advanced case. My suggestion is to get plenty of rest and resume your life as normal. Some things should come back, and if they don't then you'll just have to adapt."
After saying what he came in to say, the doctor left and released Minato, giving him back to his parents.
"Minato, I'm so glad you're okay!" His mother said, hugging him and wiping away her tears.
His father knelt down, and rubbed the boy's head. "I know you don't remember us, but we're your family. We love you son."
Minato looked at the man, and a strange feeling overcame him. He was happy, but it was as if that happiness also came with a relieving feeling. He didn't know when or why he started crying, but he wiped his eyes and gave his two new family members a smile.
After that, they left the hospital and returned home.
Kira Namikaze's life had been turned upside down since the car accident.
It had been a month since the accident, but since that time strange things had been happening with her son.
She seriously thought he was possessed.
One time, when she walked into her son's bedroom she found him sitting on the ceiling deep in thought. Sitting. On. The. Ceiling. Another time, she heard him yell, "Summoning Jutsu!" and when she walked in, he had cut his thumb.
However, the strangest thing she had seen was when she walked in only to find four Minato's sitting in different places in the room reading different books on the history of quirks, heroes and Japan. The fourth Minato was swiping up and down on his new phone and looking up different things around him which he should already know about.
She just about fainted when she saw that.
However, she also found that her son was much kinder and more mature than before the accident. He spoke with a politeness that you rarely found in kids, and he was always helping around the house. His clones helped too… and despite acting just like him she always felt it was weird.
According to the doctor, Minato should be quirkless. However, he could make clones, walk on walls, and according to the police officer at the scene of the crash he could also teleport.
'Is that boy really my son?' She thought to herself as she walked downstairs and into the kitchen.
"Hello mother! I've made breakfast. It should be on the table." The young boy said wearing an over-sized pink apron. On the table was a plate with bacon, eggs, toast and a glass of orange juice.
The look of the food alone forced her to swallow the saliva which threatened to become drool. She looked at her watch and looked at the boy in surprise. "Minato, it's 6:00AM. What are you doing up so early? School doesn't start for another hour!"
To boy didn't respond for a few seconds as he thought of an excuse. He couldn't just tell his mother that he'd been training for the last hour. "I was just so excited about going back to school again!" Minato said smoothly.
Minato's mother nodded at the excuse, and sat down at the table. She quickly started eating, and after she was finished said, "Still, for you to be a better cook than me kinda hurts my pride as a mother..."
"Don't worry about it mom. I like your cooking the best!" Minato said with a smile.
The woman hugged her son and smiled. Her earlier thoughts drifted away. "R-right! Plus, I did teach you everything you know! It's only to be expected that your food would turn out this great!"
Minato had a light bulb go off. He had read about people like his mother in a picture book called a manga. She was what you'd call a tsundare.
Smiling lightly at the connection he'd made, he suddenly heard a thundering sound coming from the stairs. The house was quite large, and had three levels of stairs. However, Minato could have sworn he only heard his father touch half of them as he quickly arrived at the bottom level. His hair was a mess and his tie was to far to the right.
It surprised Minato that this man was a CEO at a major hero suit development agency.
"Hey honey!" He yelled to his wife as he approached with surprising speed. He stopped right in front of her and gave her a kiss before he saw the remaining plate left on the dining table. "Man, you really went all out today!"
"I didn't make it, Baka! (2) Our son did." Minato's mother said feigning anger.
Without missing a beat, Akiro turned and nodded. "Well, since you taught him I'm sure it'll be good!" Minato watched as his father quickly covered up his mistake.
'Good luck, father.' Minato thought, giving out a silent prayer for the blond man.
The man quickly ate his breakfast and ran out the door. "I love you two! See you when I get back from work!"
"We love you too darling!" Said Minato's mother with a smile.
Minato watched the pair and smiled lightly. However, deep down he felt a longing for 'his' darling.
'Kushina, will I ever see you again?'
(1): Technically, Minato shouldn't still have his superhuman senses since he's in a new body, but this line is an important part of the story to come and something Minato needs to hear. I guess this other body just has good hearing?
(2): Kept it as 'baka' in order to fully pronounce the 'tsun.'
