Chapter 7 - 7: Birth

The wedding of the 4th Hokage, Namikaze Minato, and Uzumaki Kushina was nice. I think because of the brief connection that was made while in the Sandaime's office, my family and now theirs, we became closer, thus being invited to their wedding. I ate a lot and enjoyed the celebration. My parents didn't want to stay long but waited until I was full to excuse ourselves. We wished them the best and we left for the night.

Months passed and Uzumaki Naruto was already growing in Kushina's w.o.m.b. When I came to visit I made sure not to cause any trouble or give Kushina any unwanted stress. I know I was still too weak to help Minato face off against the Kyubi, Kurama, when Naruto is born but for damn sure I will get a few hits in. At the time of Kushina's birth it was kept a secret and the village was on high alert because when a Jinchuriki gives birth they are at their weakest, and Kushina was no exception. The best thing that I could hope for, a full moon, was also on the same night as the attack. The night was still, but full of tension. I knew already that an attack was coming but I had no time reference. The moment we heard the first few booms I knew Obito had attacked and released the Kyubi from Kushina. My parents were tasked in keeping the citizens safe so I wasn't too worried about their safety. My mother handed me off to a fellow Sarutobi clansman and proceeded to a bunker. The moment he put me down with the other children I used Instant Transmission to teleport next to Kushina, who was in bad shape. I saw Minato and Kushina together so I ran to them.

Minato: Sage-kun what are you doing here? This is an emergency, leave now!!!

At first Minato and Kushina were angry and shocked that I was there. I then grabbed Kushinas' hand and infused as much chakra as I could in order to heal her, or at least keep her alive long enough to re-seal the Kyubi back inside her.

Sage: Nii-chan there is no time to explain, Nee-chan will be okay for now. (I grabbed Minato's hand and used Instant transmission to the Kyubi, I ignored Minato's shock). Nii-chan that's the bad guy! (I pointed to Obito).

Minato: If we get through this Sage-kun, you need to explain how you are doing this, ok?

Sage: Nii-chan, don't sound so pessimistic. I will hold down the Kyubi so finish him off so we can re-seal the Kyubi back to Nee-chan and Naruto.
