This probably the best chapter I wrote, or at least I think so! And I cried when writing it like an idiot! Rewatching episode of Minato and Kushina's last moment with Naruto didn't help! I keep crying waterfall!
As usual, yaoi fangirls and boys... you can interpret any scene as you wish. But this fic is not yaoi damn it!
BTW there's an interlude which is about seal tower people and their relationship with Naruto... I should put it in previous chapter but damn... it's too troublesome!
UPDATE 18-03-13: erasing unnecessary scene and fixing dialogue
UPDATE 19-03-13: Beta-ed by Supreme Dream, there's some changes and so on but in general just trying to fix OOC-ness I spotted.
BTW while I don't mind critiques, if you can give sign up review it would be wonderful... I am not going to bite anyone's head off over critiques, but please state your reasons... elaborate your opinion so I am not left clueless of why it sucks.Interlude, Uzumaki Naruto in their perspective.
Hinamori
Hinamori loved her kouhai. He was such a beautiful little boy with big, azure eyes and soft, blond hair. She recognized him right away as the jailor of the Kyuubi, and was thankful the poor boy was safe in the tower and away from vengeful villagers. She sometimes wondered if she would've hated the boy like a clueless civilian had she not been a seal master. However, one look at those azure eyes convinced her that she wouldn't have, no demon could have those lonely, doe eyes.
She at first thought to treat him like a little brother. After all, Naruto was an orphan; he would love to have an older sister to take care of him. That illusion shattered the moment Yuzuriha and Tokusa blatantly showed their submission to the boy and treated him like a prince. He always looked uncomfortable whenever the Shiomitsus were showering him with attention, so Hinamori always had to take the initiative and tell them to leave the poor child alone. The argument that ensued then escalated into a childish scuffle that left them wondering why they were fighting in the first place. At that point, they would begin to argue about who Naruto would rather spend time with.
It was usually ended forcefully by Naruto with him pointing out he wouldn't want to spend time either of them if they kept arguing over trivial things. The child of the group acted more mature than they did, and it left Hinamori feeling ashamed enough to call a temporary truce with the Shiomitsus. None of them had the right to spend time with Uzumaki-sama.
Tokusa
The Uzumaki clan had always been at the top of the seal master hierarchy, but he was not happy when his master told him the new student was an Uzumaki that had to be treated like royalty. When he first met Uzumaki Naruto, Tokusa's first impression was that the boy was a walking contradiction. He had expected someone from the Uzumaki line to be loud, brash, and obnoxious but a brilliant seal master. Sure, Uzumaki Naruto was a cheerful child, but he was reserved, polite, and always seemed to be in control of his emotions. His hair was blond and not the signature red of the Uzumaki's, and his eyes were not a steel blue but azure. The only Uzumaki trait in him was his talent for fuuinjutsu.
Tokusa spent most of his time as Naruto's retainer, regardless of whether he liked it or not, because it was his master's order. It was bearable since the boy didn't act like a pampered prince. In fact, Naruto rarely asked him for anything, and the first thing he ever did ask of him was unforgettable.
"Could you help me with this, Tokusa?" Naruto asked innocently.
Initially, he had called Tokusa his senpai, but the older boy had insisted Naruto drop the suffix. "Ah," Tokusa eyed the scroll skeptically, "of course, but... I don't think I'm good enough to help you, Uzumaki-sama."
