Day of the Kyuubi attack:
Everything was going according to plan with Kushina's birth. There had been no complications and the seal that held the fox demon was holding strong. Of course Minato, her vibrant yellow haired husband, was still worried to death. He made all the nurses on edge with his pacing in the corner. Anyone in their right mind would be nervous if their wife was in a cave unknown to the village giving birth in secret to make sure the nine tailed fox demon would not be released.
"Minato! Would you quit pacing, you are distracting the midwife" one of the nurses yelled at him.
"I'm sorry, I can't help it. She is the love of my life. Does that not give me reason to worry?" he asked, hands visibly shaking.
The nurse knew that he was right, but she still needed the other nurses to have all of their attention on the one giving birth. She made him come closer to keep a watch over the seal to match sure nothing was wrong. He was the best seal master the leaf had in the entire village. Jiraiya being the third best, after Kushina since she was the one who taught Minato. The nurse knew keeping him busy would do the trick.
Within minutes their beautiful baby boy was born, and Kushina couldn't believe her eyes.
With a smile she said "He looks so much like you Minato."
"I'm so glad you chose that name. Naruto, it will fit him well" she added.
Minato was bewildered to say the least, it finally hit him that he was going to be a father. He couldn't help but smile widely at that thought.
However, words behind them made the happy family worry.
"What a touching moment, to bad I have to destroy it" a man with a mask appeared from nowhere.
He was wearing dark black robes that were outlined with red, and his mask was a pale white and only had one eye hole.
Minato handed Naruto over to midwives, they had to a job to do.
With inhuman speed, he killed the nurses and grabbed Naruto from the dead women. Minato was so shocked he barely even had time to react. Before Minato could even think of what to do the masked man tossed Naruto up into the air. Minato used the Hirashin to flash to his new born son. He was going to flash back to Kushina to get her away from the man, but he started to hear a hissing noise.
Minato looked at the cloth his soon was wrapped in a saw the fizzing explosive notes. He was forced to choose. He flashed into his workshop out of the village. Once there, he threw the explosive notes away and jumped out of the building.
'It's a good thing I made copies of all that' he thought as the building exploded behind him. As soon as he landed he pulled a shard out of his leg and then flashed to the cradle that him and Kushina had set up for Naruto. He needed to make sure Naruto was safe before he went back for Kushina.
-With Kushina-
Kushina was being held up by the seal that was binding the Kyuubi inside of her. It had spread from the rocks around here and was acting like a chain.
"What do you want?!" she yelled at the masked man, and he didn't even flinch.
"I am going to extract the Kyuubi from you, then I am going to use it to destroy the hidden leaf village."
Kushina was stunned, the man in front of her was planning to destroy the hidden leaf village like it was nothing. He was going to take the Kyuubi from her and there was nothing that she could do about any of it all.
'Oh Kami please let Minato be here in time to save us.' she thought.
Just as the thought crossed her mind, the only visible eye the man had started to glow bright red. She instantly realized that it was a Sharingan.
"Come out Kyuubi!" the man yelled, the seal on her stomach started to bulge out of her. Telling her that the Kyuubi was leaving her. After a few seconds the beast stood at full height with its nine tails swaying in full glory.
-Back with Minato-
Minato knew that he was too late when here heard the ungodly roar. He knew that very instant, that the nine tails was forced from Kushina by that masked man. He hurried to find his wife, running as fast as he could, he finally found her crumpled up on the ground. When she saw him, she pulled him closer.
"It was an Uchiha. I don't think he is from the village, but that is how he forced the monster from me and is controlling It. I did not recognize his voice or his chakra signature." she said.
He knew as the fourth Hokage that it was his duty to protect the village, but he knew that he wasn't going to make it through this one. The only sealing process he knew that would be able to seal the Fox in time to save the village was the Shikki Fuin, and with the sealing done he would die. The reaper would take his soul as payment.
He used Hirashin to bring his wife where their son had been placed.
"I must go protect the village, you need to stay here. I will send Tsunade to come help you. She may be out of the village, but you two were always so close. she would definitely come back for you."
She gave him a very sad look and said "Minato you and I both know that the only reason I am still alive right now is because of my Uzumaki blood. You know that when a bijuu is extracted the jinchūriki will die."
"I am going with you to protect my village and there is nothing you can say to convince me otherwise" she said with a determined expression.
Minato knew she was right, so he used Hirashin once again to bring them to the village, and the sight they say was pure horror. The nine tailed beast was preparing some sort of Chakra blast, which was accumulating what looked like red and blue chakra, if that attack landed it would destroy the village in one hit. Minato knew what it was, it was the so called "bijuu bomb" talked about in legend. Then without warning it was launched toward the village and Minato knew what he had to do.
Within seconds the bijuu bomb looked like it had hit something, the air around the massive purple ball was starting to bend. Then all of a sudden, it disappeared. There was a massive explosion seen off to the southwest of the village, and there were the massive bijuu ball once stood, was the fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze. Minato knew that he couldn't kill the beast, because it was just a massive construct of chakra and it would just reform years later. His only option was to seal the beast into a person, creating another jinchūriki. However, the only person that could withstand the sealing was an Uzumaki, and with Kushina dying he knew the only option was to seal the nine tailed fox demon into his own son.
There was a red blur, and then his wife was standing next to him, she had a very grim expression. She had come to the same conclusion that her husband came to.
"Kushina I need you to hold the fox with your chakra chains while I prepare the sealing." Minato said.
She was not happy about any of this, but she knew that Minato wouldn't ask anyone to do anything if he wouldn't do it first. She was so devastated that she wouldn't get to see her baby boy grow up to be a man. With that last thought, her back exploded and out came chains made of chakra and wrapped around the evil beast.
With that done Minato used Hirashin once again to bring his son's altar to the battle field. Without hesitating, he was going through a number of hand seals and with the last seal the Shinigami appeared behind him.
The fox saw what was going to happen to him. He knew he was going to be sealed again if he didn't do anything. With his last effort, he shot is claw toward the young child. However, what happened next surprised even him. The parents of the young boy took the hit for him. The fox had thought for centuries that humans were just selfish people only looking out for themselves. That is why he was surprised by the actions of these petty humans.
Kushina and Minato knew they were going to die, but Minato needed more chakra for the sealing, so Kushina used the last of her chakra to help Minato. Minato being the seal master he was added his and her chakra to the seal so that one day so if Naruto needed them, they would be there.
With that the Shinigami rammed his arm through Minato, and Kushina ripping the Kyuubi's soul out of them and forcibly into the young infant. The last thing that Minato and Kushina saw was the Shinigami's sword cutting their souls from their own bodies and swallowed by the Shinigami as the price for sealing the monster.
When the reinforcements and the Third Hokage got there, they had found a crying baby there and a note from the fourth. Saying that it was his son, and that he was to be looked upon as a hero for carrying the burden of being the jinchūriki of the dreaded nine tailed fox.
One day later:
When the news had spread that the village's beloved leader had perished saving them from that evil monster. Everyone was devastated. They didn't know what to do, but they were reassured when they also heard the news that the third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, would step back in until a new Hokage could be determined.
Those that were truly devastated were now in the Hokage's office. Kakashi Hatake, Itachi Uchiha, and surprisingly Shisui Uchiha most people didn't know was that Minato had become a mentor to the two Uchiha boys, almost a father to them, since both of them never really knew what a real fathers love was. Itachi with his cold and distant father, and Shisui's father dying when he was young. All of them were now crying about the loss of their sensei, and had no idea what they were going to do now.
"Minato sealed the demon fox into his own son." the third Hokage said.
All of their eyes widened, no one spoke for what felt like an eternity. Kakashi was the one that finally spoke up. "Shouldn't everyone know that it's his son that carries this burden?"
"No! Iwa would definitely try to kill the boy. We must keep this secret between us. This cannot get out. This is an S-class secret so if any of you tell anyone this will be punishable by death." the third spoke firmly.
Itachi was next to speak up. "But if they don't know then surely they will take their hatred for the fox out on him!"
"He is right Itachi. The boy may have to put up with the hate his whole life, but at least he will be alive" Shisui spoke gravely with a sad look.
"Who is to take care of him then?" Kakashi said, the third replied quickly.
"He will be placed into an orphanage until he is old enough to have a place of his own. I am placing him there because you Kakashi are not ready for a child, the Uchiha couldn't be the boy's guardians because it would look like a power play, and anyone else who is capable of raising the boy is no longer in the village. I sent Tsunade a letter to inform her about her 'family', but I doubt she will even read it."
With that spoken, the boy was taken by Kakashi and the two Uchiha to the orphanage where he will have to stay.
As they left, the third slumped into his chair thinking 'I am too old for this stuff. I hope you are watching over the boy now, Kushina, Minato. Don't worry, I will tell him when he is either strong enough or old enough who is parents are, but for now it has to stay secret.' with that the third promptly fell asleep on his desk.
