"Warning radiation leak in the reactor chamber," a floating robot named Andy said to the three people in front of him.

"Shit, Minato what are we going to do? We can't fix the reactor in time and if we let it be the whole damn vault will be flooded in radiation," a man in a vault 101 security uniform asked the man sitting I front of him.

"I have an idea but I'm not sure if it will work," the man wearing a vault 101 suit and white trench coat said.

"What's the idea?" a black man in a vault 101 lab coat asked.

"This is my idea, if radiation infects humans and kills them then all we need to do is send someone in there to absorb all the radiation," Minato said

"Hold up, you're saying we should send one of our own to die in there?" the officer asked.

"That's the idea Gomez," Minato replied.

"Minato that wouldn't work," the scientist said.

"And why won't it work, Jonas," Minato asked.

"Because the immune system will try to fight the radiation the person is absorbing, and so when they die all the radiation in there will be released," Jonas explained.

"But what if the person doesn't have a fully formed immune system yet," Minato said.

"Well they should be able to keep the radiation in them," Jonas said

"Yea but where the hell are we going to find someone without a fully formed immune system?" Gomez asked.

"My newborn son," Minato said which got baffled looks from the other two.

"Minato what the hell are you thinking?" Gomez asked.

"My son was born thirty minutes ago and shouldn't have a fully formed immune system yet making him the perfect candidate," Minato said.

"Okay there is two things wrong with this plan one Kushina will never agree with this and two your son will die," Gomez said while holding two fingers out.

"Kushina died right after birth and my son has a higher chance of survival than anyone else," Minato said.

"While I am sorry about Kushina I have to ask what do you mean that your son has a higher chance of survival?" Gomez asked.

"Wait he's right Gomez, a baby's immune system is not fully formed it grows over time thanks to proteins and such that is given to it, so if a baby was to absorb radiation the cryopreserved protein crystals will crack and eventually destroy some of the cells in it that are for protein, but radiation will infect the remaining cells that weren't destroyed, this means that the baby will have a source for the immune system to grow in meaning that the baby could survive," Jonas explained (I bend science to my will, but some of it is true).

"Now here's the hard part," Minato began. "Someone is going to have to take the baby in and place him in the reactor room while someone else will seal the door behind them so that radiation doesn't come out," Minato said. "The person going in is going to be me," he finished getting shocked looks from the other two.

"Minato you can't go in, if what you and Jonas said was true than your child could become parentless, I'll go in," Gomez said.

"No I can't allow you to go in, if I did what kind of overseer would I be," Minato said. "If my child does survive all I ask is that you make sure he lives a happy life and make sure no one knows of what is happening, make a cover up story," Minato said as he stood up and walked to the infirmary to pick up his child with the other two behind him. Once he got at the infirmary he picked up a child swaddled in a blue cloth, had whisker marks on his cheeks, and blond hair. He takes to the child and walks to the reactor room. Once inside the reactor room he heard the swoosh the door makes when it closes and he turned on the audio feature on his Pip-boy to record a message for his child if the child survived.

"Hey Naruto it's your dad speaking, if you are hearing this then it means you're alive and that's what matters, I'd like to say that I'm extremely sorry for doing this to you but I know in my heart that Gomez and Jonas took care of you, have to end this message now I can feel the radiation killing me so I'm going to stop this recording by saying sorry and me and your mother love you so very much," Minato finished as he stopped the recording.

He place Naruto down next to the reactor and fell to his knees and then onto the floor. Opening his eyes he saw Naruto sleeping like nothing was happening and Minato hugged Naruto with one arm and closed his eyes for the final time.
