Naruto: The Tale Of Two Gods

Chapter 1

Prolouge

Namikaze Minato was currently holding his wife's hand as she was going through the last stages of labor. He was also trying his hardest to keep the bijuu inside of her contained and sealed. If that beast got out then it would be the end for his village Konohagakure no Sato. He was the Yondaime Hokage and hailed as the fastest and strongest of them all. But this night would put his life and his wife's in mortal danger and his soon to be born son's life would be changed forever.

"Come on Kushina-chan, just a little bit more" the nurse said as she was the one watching over the birth.

"Ah there you go. Congratulations you two, you have been blessed with a very healthy baby boy. " The nurse exclaimed as she wrapped the babe in a warm blanket after allowing Minato to cut the cord. She handed him to Kushina who immediately started cuddling her new born son.

"Hello there... Naruto. I'm your kaa-chan, and that goof right there is your tou-san." Kushina said through her tears of joy.

"He's perfect Kushina. Though did you really have to call me a goof?" Minato said as he hung his head, feigning depression.

"Stop it you. I may be bed ridden right now but I can still kick your ass dattebane." Kushina weakly snapped at her husband.

"And what a beautiful picture we have here." a voice said from all around them.

"What? Who's there? Show yourselves." Minato said as he got in front of Kushina.

The nurse and the ANBU guarding the place dropped dead, each with a kunai embedded in their head. "I've come for the fox Yondaime." Minato looked up and with horror on his face when he saw the assailant, and more specifically what he held in his hands. He had his son held hostage and the worst was he threw him up into the air, ready to kill his first born child.

"I won't let you kill him" Minato said as he threw one of his Hiraishin kunai to teleport to and catch Naruto. He was shocked when he discovered an explosive tag attached to the blanket.

Thinking fast he teleported to his safe house, threw the blanket aside, and jumped out of the house just in time before it exploded into pieces.

'Whew, he's safe.' he thought as he teleported to his home and laid his son down in his and Kushina's bed and was about to warp back to Kushina when he felt a pulse of demonic chakra permeate the air.

Panicking he warped to Kushina's marker and discovered her in chains and with the Kyuubi released about to kill her. Before the Kyuubi could though, he snatched up his wife and teleported away, leaving the masked man to begin his assault on the village.

Minato arrived back at his home and led a very weak Kushina to Naruto who laid down with him and started to cry and cuddle him. "Minato the whole Kyuubi can't be sealed into just Naruto. We need to find another baby to seal the other half into." Kushina said weakly. While she didn't want to use another's child she knew it had to be done.

"I know. And I have an idea about who would comply without force." Minato said as he readied himself for battle.

"Who?" Kushina asked him while holding her son.

"Mikoto. Little Sasuke along with Naruto will be used to seal the Kyuubi away. And I will also ask her in the case that we die, she and Fugaku watch over Naruto. Of course she will also have to swear never to tell anyone about the burden on the two boys. Are you okay with this Kushina-chan?" Minato asked her. he was gonna do it either way and she knew it but she also knew there was no other option.

"No but nothing else can be done. Take me to her so that I can talk to her." Kushina said as she weakly got to her feet.

"Kushina you barely have the strength to stand much less walk around." Minato said in protest.

"I said take me to my friend and sister, or else dattebane." Kushina said with fire in her eyes.

Minato gulped and nodded. He took a hold of her hand and warped her to the home of Uchiha Mikoto and Fugaku. Mikoto was standing on the porch alongside her oldest son Itachi. "Kushina why are you here? And Minato shouldn't you be protecting the village?" Mikoto asked in shock. It was true. At that same moment the Kyuubi was rampaging through the village.

"Yes but I need you to do me and the village a great service Mikoto. I need you to allow me to use Sasuke to seal a half of the Kyuubi into and if me and Kushina die to watch over young Naruto. You can not tell anyone of their burden. Please Mikoto there is no other option and I would never go to anyone else to ask such a thing for." Minato begged to the Uchiha matriarch. Mikoto looked at him in shock then in understanding.

"Fine. I'll allow it. Give Sasuke to me Itachi. You go inside and stay there." Mikoto said.

"Yes kaa-chan." Itachi replied and handed her his baby brother before running inside.

"Now take us to where we will seal the Kyuubi Minato-kun." Kushina told him. He nodded and warped to the destroyed safe house.

"I have to go now and retrieve the beast. Kushina you set up the altar for the eight trigrams sealing method and Mikoto you put Sasuke on to the altar along with Naruto." Minato informed them before warping away.

Arriving on top of the Hokage Monument, Minato found himself face to face with the Kyuubi in all of its power. And it was using that power to charge a bijuudama. Minato activated his Hiraishin seal before the Kyuubi fired the ball and when it made contact it slowly sunk into the rock face before being swallowed by it. Minato raised a kunai of his and had the ball teleported 15 miles outside of the village.

Sensing a presence behind him, Minato swung around with his kunai in hand ready to kill the offender but instead went right through him and ended up in the masked man's grasp. Finding himself being pulled into a vortex that was centered in the man's eye, he teleported away before he found out what was on the other side.

Arriving in a clearing Minato sat down completely still and waited. And it took just a moment before the masked man arrived out of a vortex. "Nice of you to join me, Uchiha." Minato said as he opened his eyes to reveal toad like eyes and light orange pigmentation around his eyes.

"Ah you've made the connection. Bravo Namikaze. Not that you'll live long enough to get the tale out though." And with that the man charged at him with chains attached to his wrists. Formulating a plan Minato charged too.

Minato threw a kunai and charged a Rasengan while the masked man was reaching out to grab him. His kunai went through his head and was over his back when he said "I win." before trying to grab Minato.

Minato then warped to his kunai and said "No I win" and slammed the Rasengan into the masked man's back, breaking his spine and shredding the muscle in that area. Leaving a Hiraishin marker on his body Minato made a sealing array appear.

"Contract Seal: Release" and broke the connection between the Kyuubi and masked man. Minato started running away but before he warped to Hiruzen's location he looked behind him and saw a plant like creature take the man away.

(With Hiruzen)

Hiruzen was just having a wonderful day. First his wife was murdered and now the fucking Kyuubi was destroying the village he so loved and cherished. 'My luck stat must be a 1' he thought bitterly as he swatted away one of the fox's paws with his staff.

Then a large smoke cloud appeared and out of it came Gamabunta, and on top of his head was the village's last hope. Namikaze Minato then disappeared alongside his summon and the beast in a flash of yellow.

(With Minato)

"Alright we have him. Keep him down Bunta while I summon the reaper." Minato said as he jumped off the summon's head.

"Just be quick about it brat." Gamabunta grunted out while trying to keep the fox down.

Minato started and ended a long chain of hand seals in the blink of an eye and clapped his hands together and shouted "Shiki Fujin"

The shinigami appeared behind Minato and an arm shot out and grabbed hold of the Kyuubi. Minato then telepathically told the reaper to seal the Yin half within Sasuke while he would seal the Yang half within Naruto.

The reaper complied and the fox's Yin half was funneled into the Uchiha. Minato then used his eight trigrams seal to seal away the Yang half but then a wrench was thrown into his plans.

"ARGH" Gamabunta shouted as he dispelled.

"I will not be sealed again!" the Kyuubi roared as he sent a claw towards Naruto. Thinking fast Minato and Kushina jumped in front of the claw and it impaled them.

"Ah f..fuck. Eight Trigrams Sealing Method." Minato weakly said as he finished the seal and the Kyuubi's Yang half was sealed away into Naruto.

And so our story begins on a tragic note. But this is also the beginning of two shinobi who will change the shinobi world forever.
