Birth and Meeting!

The Village Hidden in the Leaves, a village founded by the greatest ninja of the age; Hashirama Senju. Together with his wife, Mito Uzumaki, and his brother Tobirama Senju, fought and survived through the Warring States Period. The Senju clan and Uzumaki clan were not the only ones to found Konoha, as the Senju clans' rival, the Uchiha clan also helped.

Over the years, Konoha thrived but Hashirama's dream never came true. Although he was not able to achieve peace during his lifetime, his legacy and vision for the world would continue to shape the village and the entire shinobi world even after his death. Others followed Konoha's lead and made their own ninja villages. Thus came the time of the Five Great Shinobi Nations.

However, war erupted between the nations for a resource that was limited. The Biju; are the nine titanic living forms of chakra created by the Sage of Six Paths out of the chakra from the Ten-Tails. Each nation sought to control these creatures and use them as weapons by sealing them within a young child. These children with Biju sealed within them are called Jinchuriki. An ironic name considering the children keep the fury of the Biju at bay while suffering discrimination and fear from the very people that made them Jinchūriki.

Eventually the nations settled the matter and all of them gained Biju's. For Konoha, they gained the strongest; the Nine Tailed Demon Fox. The first Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails was none other than Mito Uzumaki, wife of Hashirama. However, at a very old age, Mito knew she would need to seal Kyuubi within another host. This host was Kushina Uzumaki, a relative of Mito's. Kushina was born between her Uzumaki father and her Hyuga mother. Though she herself never developed the all-seeing eyes of the Hyuga clan.

Later in time, Kushina would meet and fall in love with a young Genin from her class. This Genin would rise through the ranks and become Hokage. His name was Minato Namikaze but to his enemies he was called Konoha's Yellow Flash. Minato Namikaze was Konoha's best kept secret as he was really name Minato Senju, descendent from Tobirama Senju. The Third Hokage and elders believed if his heritage was announced, he would be targeted by the other nations and war would erupt again.

Minato and Kushina would become a couple after Kushina was kidnapped by Kumogakure forces. Konoha mobilized its ninja to retrieve her, but only Minato noticed the strands of red hair Kushina left behind to mark their path. Minato, acting alone, rescued her from her captors. Kushina who had previously believed Minato "unreliable" and even "girly" began to fall in love with him.

However once again peace was ruined when the Third Shinobi World War began. Minato now in charge of his own team was deployed to fight. Kushina would often be seen fighting beside her love. In one particular battle, Minato would gain his moniker that would strike fear into his enemies. On the front lines, Minato met up with the surviving and out-numbered Konoha ninja and single-handedly wiped out the opposing Iwagakure forces. This single battle convinced the Third Tsuchikage to accept a peace treaty.

After coming back from the war, Minato would receive the honor of being elected as the Fourth Hokage. Nearly a week later he received more good news, Kushina was pregnant. While he was elated to know he would be a father, he also realized the danger to the child, Kushina, and the whole village. He had his pupil and now Anbu captain Kakashi guard Kushina during her pregnancy.

Minato's sensei Jiraiya who was also one of the Legendary Sannin, inadvertently named the child in one of his novels. Liking the name, Minato and Kushina named their child Naruto. Jiraiya would become the child's godfather and Tsunade, granddaughter of the First Hokage would become godmother. Tsunade although hating the village that took her loves away from her, stayed to help relative Minato and pupil Kushina.

October 10th, the night that Kushina was to give birth. To keep the Kyuubi in check, Kushina was moved outside the village and give birth in a remote location. Minato would help maintain the seal and Anbu would guard the area. Tsunade, her pupil Shizune and the Third Hokage's wife Biwako would deliver the baby.

"Ahhh! This really hurts, ya know!" Shouts Kushina while the Anbu outside sweat drop. Kushina grunts and yells in pain as Minato keeps his hands on the seal holding the Kyuubi at bay. Minato seems worried as Tsunade, Shizune and Biwako stand ready to deliver the baby.

"I've never seen her cry out in pain like this before." Says Minato with a worried face. Kushina continues to yell out and grunt.

"Is she okay?" Asks Minato to Tsunade who focuses on the baby.

"Of course she is!" Assures Biwako as Tsunade is focused on her job.

"Lord Hokage, please focus on the seal." Says Shizune as she runs for water.

"But she's-." Says Minato before Tsunade looks to him.

"You are the Fourth Hokage," says Tsunade, making Minato look to her, "she needs your strength now more than ever."

"No man could endure the pain of child birth." Says Biwako. Minato suddenly hears the Kyuubi roar and shake the seal.

"Kyuubi, it's trying to break free." Thinks Minato with sweat running down his face.

"Hang in there Kushina," thinks Minato as he focuses on the seal. "Hang in there Naruto!" Tsunade narrows her eyes and sweats.

"He sure is taking his time." Thinks Tsunade.

Outside the barrier, the Anbu lie dead with a masked man choking one. The masked man looks to the barrier and walks forward. He walks to the stone wall and seemingly goes right through it. Kushina yells out again while Tsunade widens her eyes slightly.

"I can see his head!" Says Tsunade, making Minato smile. Shizune wipes Kushina's head with a wet cloth.

"You're almost there, Lady Kushina." Assures Shizune.

"Hang in there, Kushina." Says Biwako while Minato shakes after hearing Kyuubi roar out again.

"Naruto! Come out quickly!' Shouts Minato as Kyuubi thrashes around in the seal.

"Kyuubi, you stay put!" Shouts Minato as Kushina gives one final push before relaxing. The cries of the infant fill the cave. Tsunade smiles and the baby before looking to Shizune.

"Hot water!" Shouts Tsunade.

"Right!" Confirms Shizune as she fetches the water. Kushina pants before tears fall from her eyes. Minato stands still with wide eyes, gawking at his baby. Naruto has three whisker like marks on each cheek and a patch of red hair, like his mother. His eyes however are as blue as his father's.

"Oh just look at those adorable whisker marks." Frets Tsunade while rubbing the marks. Minato starts to cry and rub his eyes.

"Today, I'm a father." Says Minato with tears. Tsunade checks the baby over and smiles.

"Hmm, the baby is perfectly healthy." Assures Tsunade as she walks to Kushina. Minato walks forward and laughs.

"The mother sees him first." Glares Tsunade, making Minato depressed. Tsunade giggles at her cousin's depressed state, reminding her of her grandfather. Kushina looks to the crying infant and smiles.

"Naruto," calls Kushina with a soft smile, "I finally get to see you." Tsunade watches with a smile before Biwako comes over and looks to her.

"You'll have lots more time later." Assures Biwako as she takes the baby. Tsunade looks over Kushina and gives Minato a nod.

"Kushina, I need to completely seal the Kyuubi." Smiles Minato, making Kushina nod her head with smile. Tsunade reduces the pain with her Medical Ninjutsu.

"Ahh!" Shouts Biwako and Shizune who hits a wall.

"Shizune!" Shouts Tsunade as she stands.

"Biwako!" Shouts Minato.

"Fourth Hokage Minato and Lady Tsunade, get away from the Jinchuriki." Demands the Masked Man. Tsunade glares at the man with hatred.

"You bastard, release the baby!" Demands Tsunade as she enters a stance.

"Oh, not so fast." Says the Masked Man as he brings the baby closer to his hand.

"A single accident and the child dies." Says the Masked Man, causing Tsunade to sweat.

"Hand over the Jinchuriki," orders the man as Minato glares, "otherwise, this childs life will end in one minute."

"Jiraiya, where are you?" Thinks Tsunade with panic.

"How did he get past the barrier?" Thinks Minato. Kushina suddenly yells out as sealing patterns appear over her skin.

"Kushina!" Calls Minato in panic. Tsunade looks to her and grits her teeth.

"The seal won't last!" Thinks Tsunade.

"Perhaps I wasn't clear enough," says the Masked Man as he pulls out a kunai, "or do you not care what happens to your child?" Tsunade glares and steps back a bit where senbon are at.

"Wait! Calm down!" Tries Minato as he sees what Tsunade is doing.

"Speak for yourself, Minato," says the Masked Man as Tsunade reaches the tray, "I'm as cool as can be." Suddenly Tsunade throws the tray at the Masked Man who widens his eyes at the speed. The Tray goes right through him but Naruto also goes through his hand. Minato narrows his eyes and flashes right under Naruto before catching him. The tray hits the wall and the Masked Man looks down.

"Take this!" Shouts Tsunade as her fist hits the mask and sends the man flying into a wall. However Minato looks at the cloth on the baby and sees paper bombs. The Masked Man gets up and forms a ram seal, making Tsunade widen her eyes.

"Minato! Naruto!" Shouts Kushina in panic.

"Minato!" Shouts Tsunade as the seal on her forehead goes off. Minato understanding looks to Shizune and grabs her before he flashes himself, Shizune, Naruto and Tsunade away. They appear in a small cabin as Minato takes the cloth off and passes it to Tsunade who clutches it close to herself. The tags go off as Minato exits the cabin and rolls to a stop with Shizune and Naruto.

"Tsunade!" Shouts Minato as Tsunade emerges from the rubble with burns marks and blood running down her body. She shakes as she sees the blood making Minato rush to her and rub it off. Tsunade grabs Minato and looks to him. Shizune awakens and looks to Tsunade before rushing over.

"Go, save her." Says Tsunade as Minato nods and leaves.

The Masked Man releases the Kyuubi and then places it under his control. He then attacks the village using the fox demon. The ninja attack but are easily defeated by the Kyuubi. While that battle is happening Minato faces off against the Masked Man. Using his Hiraishin Level Two he deals a blow to the Masked Man with his Rasengan. The Masked Man retreats but vows to return.

Although the man was defeated, the Kyuubi is still free. With no other choice, Minato chooses to seal the beast at the cost of his own life. Using the Sealing Jutsu: Reaper Death Seal, Minato seals Kyuubi within his own son. However, Kyuubi uses the last bit of his strength to try and kill Naruto but Minato and Kushina take the attack themselves. With that, Minato seals the beast away and dies next to his wife.

Days later, the village is in an uproar and seeking to reconstruct the buildings. Tsunade mourns the loss of her cousin while looking over Naruto with Jiraiya and Shizune. However the council believe Naruto is too dangerous to live and seek to get rid of the child.

"Enough!" Shouts Hiruzen with a glare. Tsunade and Jiraiya stand next to him while Shizune holds Naruto. The council quiets as Hiruzen sighs.

"We will not execute a child." Says Hiruzen with no room for argument. The Shinobi nod their head while the civilians look to each other and murmur.

"I agree, the child could be of use if trained properly." Says Danzo while looking at Naruto.

"Like hell!" Shouts Tsunade as she glares at the one eyed man.

"We all know your type of training." Says Jiraiya with a glare.

"That thing should be killed now!" Shouts a council member, making Tsunade glare at him.

"T-The Kyuubi needs to be killed." Says the man.

"Naruto is not the Kyuubi!" Shouts Tsunade, making the council quiet. Tsunade looks at the council members before one man stands.

"My wife was killed by that monster." Says the man before he takes out a kunai.

"I will not live while that creature still breathes!" Shouts the man as he attacks. Tsunade widens her eyes as he attacks Naruto and Shizune. However before the man can get closer, a large tree branch wraps around his body and sends him flying back into the opposite wall. The council gawks at the power while Hiashi Hyuga smiles.

"I for one agree with Lord Hokage, the child is partly a member of my clan as Kushina was from my clan." Says Hiashi as he stands.

"You wish to adopt the child?" Asks Fugaku while looking at him.

"Adopting the child could create a power struggle within Konoha." Says Danzo, making Tsunade glare at him.

"No one is adopting him," says Tsunade making everyone look to her, "Jiraiya and I are Naruto's godparents and were given permission by Minato and Kushina to look after him in the event something happened to either of them."

"As such we will determine who will raise the child, not you." Says Jiraiya. Danzo glares at the two.

"And what of his training, I'm sure neither of you know Mokuton." Says Danzo making Hiruzen smile.

"Tenzo." Calls Hiruzen as an Anbu member appears next to the Hokage. Danzo glares at the man and narrows his eyes at Hiruzen.

"Tenzo hear will teach Naruto how to use his power." Says Hiruzen as he looks at the council members. The Shinobi council nod their heads in acceptance while the Civilian Council looks wary but nod their heads.

"Good, you're all dismissed." Says Hiruzen as the council leaves while Anbu take down the man who attacked Naruto. Tenzo turns to Hiruzen and Hiruzen looks to him.

"Tenzo, I assume you saw what happened?" Asks Hiruzen as he smokes his pipe.

"Yes Lord Hokage." Confirms Tenzo. Tsunade looks to the man while Jiraiya looks to Hiashi.

"You know Mokuton?" Asks Tsunade, making Tenzo nod his head and produce wood from his hand. Hiashi steps forward and bows his head.

"If it is alright with you, we of the Hyuga clan would also like to assist in his training in the event he awakens the Byakugan." Says Hiashi, making Jiraiya look to him and nod. Tsunade rubs her head and sighs.

"I can't stay for long but I know he will be in good hands with the Hyuga clan." Says Tsunade as she plans to leave again.

"I have to maintain my network and I can't exactly take him with me." Says Jiraiya before chuckling sadly.

"What horrible godparents we are." Says Jiraiya.

"You need not worry, the Hyuga clan will watch over him." Assures Hiashi.

"And I will train him." Assures Tenzo.

"Then we are all agreed." Says Hiruzen with a nod.

Orphaned, Naruto grew up not knowing who his parents were, receiving only his mother's surname, as Hiruzen wanted to protect Naruto from his father's enemies. Tsunade and Jiraiya would look after him for a time but in the end they each left the village. Though Naruto would always few them as his parents. Hiashi fulfilled his role and trained Naruto will also giving him a roof over his head. Tenzo also began to teach Naruto the basics of chakra.

Minato's dying wish that Naruto be regarded as a hero was honoured by the very few who could put aside their pain and losses caused by the disaster, while the majority of Konoha, however having no knowledge of the circumstances surrounding his birth, openly ostracized and resented Naruto for containing the beast that devastated the village and took many lives; some even viewed Naruto as the Nine-Tails itself. Soon is was forbidden to even mention the Nine Tailed Fox with the hope of the younger generation would not hate Naruto. This failed however as the children copied their parents.

As Naruto grew, his hair became spikey, much like his fathers, with the difference being his hair was red. On his forehead is a rhombus like marking. Tsunade had taught Naruto the Strength of a Hundred Seal, to which Naruto was able to achieve despite his young age, no doubt from his Uzumaki blood. Naruto, now ready to start his first day at the academy walks through the snow. He walks while looking at the snow. He grabs a snow flake and smiles.

"Grandma Tsunade would like to see the snow." Says Naruto as his face turns sad, missing the person who was like a mother. Suddenly Naruto hears crying, making him turns to his right.

"If you really are a Hyuga, show us your Byakugan." Says a young boy with a smirk.

"Why bother, just get out of here." Says another child.

"Ew, her eyes are creepy." Says a girl. The girl they are making fun of begins to cry, making Naruto step out of the bushes.

"Oi!" Calls Naruto, making the kids look to him.

"What do you want, Tomato?" Asks the lead kid.

"My name is Naruto Uzumaki, your future Hokage." Announces Naruto, making the kids laugh.

"Like a Carrot Top can become Hokage." Says one kid. Naruto glares at the two before stepping forward and punching the kid who made fun of him.

"What the, idiot." Says the other kid and punches Naruto who tanks it and gut punches him. The three kids get into a brawl and it seems Naruto is winning due to his superior strength. With a final punch Naruto hits the kid down and pants.

"Well? You feel like apologizing now?" Asks Naruto while panting. The kids wipe their faces and glare before Naruto glares at them with a fiery background.

"Well?" Asks Naruto in a deep tone making the kids look to Hinata.

"S-Sorry." Says the kids, making the girl widen her eyes as the kids run away. Naruto sighs before falling on his butt.

"A-Are you okay?" Asks the girl. Naruto looks to her and widens his eyes when he sees no pupils.

"So you really are part of the Hyuga clan." Says Naruto, making the girl nod her head.

"Um yeah, I've seen you around a lot." Says the girl.

"Really?" Asks Naruto as he sweats, thinking he forgot someone's name.

"M-My name is Hinata, my father is Hiashi." Says Hinata with a blush and smile. Naruto gapes at having forgotten the clan heads daughter.

"Y-Y-Your Hiashi-san's daughter?" Asks Naruto while breaking out into a sweat.

"Hai." Says Hinata while blushing.

"H-How come I've never seen you?" Asks Naruto, making Hinata turn beet red with steam coming from her face.

"I-I hide." Whispers Hinata with a blush. Naruto leans in with his ear.

"Huh?" Asks Naruto, making Hinata shake her head. Naruto shrugs before standing and looking down at her.

"Don't let those jerks get you down," says Naruto as he lifts her chin with a smile while Hinata blushes beet red at the contact, "I think you looks really pretty." Naruto lets go and runs to the Academy.

"See you later Hinata." Says Naruto while Hinata sits there with wide eyes. She then smiles with a blush and places her hands on her chest.

"Pretty." Says Hinata. Hinata then snaps out of her day dream and runs to the academy while Tenzo sits on a tree overlooking the area.

"I'm sure Lord Jiraiya would love to hear of this." Says Tenzo as he vanishes in a Body Flicker.

Ok guys so here is the first chapter of the Re write. I hope you guys enjoy the first chapter even though there was little action.

So Tsunade and Jiraiya raised Naruto briefly for about 4 years before they left the village. During that time Tsunade taught him the Strength of a Hundred Seal. Now I know he is very young but I think with his Uzumaki blood he could easily learn the Sealing Jutsu. Now I didn't say he learned it at the age of 4. He began to practice it then.

I loved the meeting between Naruto and Hinata so I wrote that as well but added some things, like Naruto beating them up. Despite Naruto producing a branch in the council chambers he still has no experience in making them himself. The only reason it spawned was because of the danger Naruto was in.

So don't expect Naruto to be spamming Mokuton during the academy.
