Changes: Naruto (Rewrite)

Chapter 1

Minato sighed. "I'm so thankful Hiruzen... Without you, Naomi never would have been born, Naruto and Karah would be orphans, and everyone would know Karah's secret."

He remembered that night seven years ago, like it was yesterday. A masked man had kidnaped his daughter Karah, after Kushina had birthed twins.

It took everything Minato had to get Karah back and chase off the masked man.

He then began sealing the Ninetails into Karah and Hiruzen interrupted, giving his own soul in exchange for Minato's.

Minato stood and looked out over the village, just as Jiraiya walked into the room looking grim. "Kid, we gotta talk..."

Minato looked at him confused. "What is it sensei?"

Jiraiya ran a hand through his hair. "I heard a prophecy yesterday from the great toad... A child of my apprentice will either save the world or plunge it into darkness, aided by she with the chains of destiny they will defeat a grave threat to humanity... It's vague but I think it's your daughters. With Karah having the ninetails, it's no doubt she'll be extremely powerful, and Naomi's chakra is almost exactly like Kushina's so she will end up wielding chains. We must focus on their training."

"What of my son, Naruto?" Minato asked.

Jiraiya grimaced. "You aren't gonna like this but... I think that we should focus only on your daughters. If they aren't close enough they could fail. So we have to postpone Naruto's training."

Minato narrowed his eyes dangerously. "Are you suggesting we ignore my only son's training?"

Jiraiya returned the glare. "Dammit kid! The fate of the world is more important than his feelings. He may hate you but at least he will be safe..."

That night Minato made a decision that would change the course of history forever...

"Daddy! Daddy!" A small grinning blonde girl ran into the office.

"What is it Karah-chan?" Minato asked smiling gently.

"The mean men keep chasing me!" Then two chunin burst into the room breathing heavily.

"Ho...ha...hokage-sama...she...your daughter vandalized the school and-" he took a deep breath, Karah had led them on quite a chase apparently...

Then young Naruto walked through the door, he had blue pants, black boots, a grey long sleeve shirt and a beanie with his blonde hair sticking from the sides. He had his hands in his pockets and was smiling. Minato noted that Naomi wasn't in sight so he assumed she was at home.

Naruto sat down on a guest chair in the office, watching the scene unfold.

Karah had darker blonde hair than Naruto and looked more like their father. She wore a pair of blue pants, white boots, and a white shirt with red flames on the arms.

"Hey Karah, starting tomorrow your dad and I will be starting your private training." Jiraiya told her.

She got excited, along with Naruto. "You're gonna train me?!?!"

"That's right Karah." Jiraiya replied, trying to hint that they wouldn't be training Naruto.

"I can't wait til, tomorrow!" She replied, Naruto nodding in agreement. "Me either!"

"Actually Naruto...we will only be training Karah for now..." Jiraiya told the smiling boy.

Naruto frowned. "Why? Did I do something wrong?"

"No, it's just your sister has a power that's incredibly powerful and dangerous to anyone around. We have to focus on her intently, please be patient, we'll start your training later." Minato answered for the Toad Sage.

Naruto looked disappointed. "Ok I guess..."

That night Naruto cried himself to sleep, and he would continue to do so for a very long time.

_____Uchiha Compound__________

"Again." The cold voice of the Uchiha patriarch rang across the training field.

Sasuke Uchiha was on one knee, panting and had several small bruises. In his hands was a wooden short sword.

Itachi Uchiha stood calmly, holding his own wooden short sword in his right hand.

A much older Uchiha with blood red eyes and three tomoe surrounding his pupils stood as their opposition.

Itachi helped his brother up carefully, and glared at their opponents as tears dropped down Sasuke's face. Itachi gripped the wooden sword until his knuckles turned white. Then Itachi's own eyes turned red with three tomoe...and he mercilessly beat down the older Uchiha.

"Very good, Itachi. I'm proud of you. Sasuke, you need to be more like Itachi, instead of pathetically losing. "

"Fugaku-sama, maybe you should cut the kid a break, at nine years old, Itachi was a prodigy and had fought in the war by your side, he's a one in a billion genius. Sasuke is talented no-doubt, but I think Itachi could be on the level of the fourth hokage in just a few short years." Another Uchiha stated, spectating with the Uchiha Patriarch. This would be Fugaku's own younger brother Raiku. He was hurt in the war and lost his left arm, but was extremely skilled in one armed sword play and had progressed enough with his fire and wind type affinities to not need hand signs that it didn't slow him at all. He looked like Itachi only older and slightly more tanned. He wore black ninja boots that had a steel plate covering his toes, red pants, and a black long sleeved shirt with the Uchiha crest on the back. The left sleeve hung loosely instead of being tied, and his headband was tied securely around his right thigh.

He was stronger than Fugaku but remained a ninja because he knew his place was a battlefield, not a desk.

Fugaku snorted. "The boy is weak. He will probably always be weak."

Sasuke looked down to hide the shameful tears as Itachi knelt in front of him. "I'll help you, little brother."  He whispered, making Raiku smirk at Fugaku and Fugaku to freeze.

Raiku poked his older brother in the head. "I remember you doing that to me in front of our own father, now who's the stronger of us?"

Fugaku masked his features but remained silent as the memory played out in his head. "You are right, you are stronger...but the gap was never this wide. It's like comparing an elite jonin to a genin or even Academy student."

"Watch Sasuke, he may yet surprise you, Foolish big brother..." Then Raiku turned and began walking away.
