Third person POV

In the land of whirlpools, there existed a prosperous village that acted as the capital of the Uzumaki clan. The village hidden in the eddies, Uzushiogakure. The clan was preparing for a feast to celebrate the coming of the second child of the clan leader, Uzumaki Eito and Uzumaki Kinade.

Uzumaki Eito, walked through the corridors of his mansion arriving in front of his bedroom where his wife was resting. They just confirmed yesterday that the clan mistress was pregnant with 3 weeks of pregnancy. He had invited all the priests and priestesses of all religions in Uzushiogakure for the prediction of the future of the second Uzumaki prince.

"Its time to see the priests of gods" He said to Kinade who was resting.

She nodded, making herself presentable, walked gracefully to the main room where the priests were gathered. There were elders and close relatives waiting for the ceremony, including the ambassadors of the Uzumaki to the Senju and Namikaze clans.

"According to the predicted date of birth of the child, he/she will belong to the day of Izanami." The head priest said

Everyone went silent hearing those words. A child born on the day of the feared goddess of death did not sound good to anyone.

"What is there to be so gloomy about old man?! MY son will bring death to the enemies of Uzumaki clan. Or do you have something that says otherwise. Besides you ain't even a priest of Izanami" Kinade narrowed her eyes and shook her fist at the head priest.

"No...Nothing.. I will just let the priestess of Izanami look at the star formations..." The head priest sweat dropped, shaking his head and hands trying to placate the Uzumaki queen from raging. 'Never anger an Uzumaki. Especially the women of Uzumaki' the head priest remembered the last advice of the old retired head priest.

"Sigh... Just move out of the way" said the high priestess of Izanami and walked towards Kinade. She bent her knees and placed her hand on Kinade's tummy, closing her eyes and started praying to the goddess...

IN A FAR AWAY HEAVENLY LAND

"Hmm... Oh it's that guy huh?" A certain goddess turned her head curiously. "Thats the guy with the immortality curse right? Let's have some fun then."

BACK IN UZUSHIOGAKURE

Third POV

The priestess stood up, her eyes still closed, started giving off an eery aura. The chakra in her body started fluctuating and the room began to darken. The priestess opened her mouth and spoke.

"The boy born of Izanami's mark,

shall forever fight the dark in the dark.

Free he shall be of her touch

a gift he is to the world as such.

The curse of eternity he shall carry,

until love, he can no longer parry.

The curse of hatred resolved and never again heed ,

the Uchiha, Senju and Uzumaki shall no longer bleed."

Once the prophecy was given, the environment returned to normal. But the room was still silent.

"Well, we know that it is a boy" said Kinade, trying to be upbeat about the whole thing.

"We need to discuss it further, in private" Eito began," We request the priests to keep the whole thing silent... forever."

"So be it" the head priestess answered,"We shall take our leave".

All the priest started to shuffle out of the room until only the clan members and close allies remained.

....................

"So what do u think of the prophecy?" Eito asked

"I have never heard of a child born with a prophecy. It must mean he will be an impressive shinobi that will shape the course of history" said clan elder Rikoku.

"....We cannot predict how this will turn out. It says that he is both a gift and a curse."

"I can understand Senju and and Uzumaki no longer bleeding... But why the hell is the Uchiha in the prophecy. The Uchihas must be wiped out for the Senju and Uzumaki to enter an era of peace." Said Mizaru. The ambassador to the Senju shared the same hatred of the Uchiha as the Senju clan themselves.

"What should we do with the child?" asked clan elder Mizuki.

"What do u mean by what to do with the child?" asked Kinade

"She is right to ask so, Kinade. Our child is too important to risk. There will be attempts on his life if the information about a child born of prophecy is spread" Eito said. "Seal the leak of information about the second child, kill off all known spies. The knowledge that Kinade is pregnant shall not leave the clan halls." Commanded Eito.

"But what about the child after he is born?" asked kinade.

"He shall grow up in the shadow of his brother and the Uzumaki clan."

"NO! I OPPOSE THIS! HE WILL HAVE HIS CHILDHOOD AND THE PLACE HE DESERVES!" Shouted Kinade.

"But Kinade...."

"SHUT UP!" she shoted stepping towards Eito

"Now now Kinade calm down, we can negotiate..." started Eito nervously but was interrupted as he soon became an ornament on the wall. Kinade stood there with her fiery red hair floating on the air like angry snakes, shaking her fists.

"Let us take this outside." she said

"Calm down Kinade" said Mizuki, "Kinade is right Eito, we cannot do that. The fact that Kinade is pregnant is probably already on the wind. If we try to hide it now, it will only serve to make our enemies more suspicious."

"UGH!" said Eito shaking his head as he extricated himself from the wall. "You make a fair point Lady Mizuki. Very well. We will act as everything is normal and celebrate it as a normal birth of an Uzumaki prince." He sighed.

"Alright then. Since it is decided, we will dismiss the meeting" said Rikoku.

"And I shall make sure that the feast is going as per planned. We can't let down the people of Uzushiogakure. After all, It is not everyday an Uzumaki prince is born."said Mizuki.

"Very well" replied Eito. The elders and the ambassadors soon shuffled out of the room.

.................................

"The Uchiha and Senju conflicts are worsening day by day" said Eito "They have requested reinforcements again."

"And reinforcements that they shall get. We never go back on our word, Eito. Atleast we don't need to send the children. I told you a treaty to keep out our children from the war was a good idea." Replied Kinade.

"And it was. I am damn glad that I accepted your request. Though Butsuma did not like it."

"You were just afraid of my fists, old man. Besides I could care less about the Senju displeasure. We are one of their stronger allies, and that is only because they are distant family. Our family is the thing that matters most to us."

"You are right Kinade. Gah! I am too tired of all this. I need a nap."

"Fine, I will prepare the guest room."

"Why the guest room?" asked Eito confused.

"Don't forget for a second what you wanted for MY child. You ain't gonna go scotch free for that yet old man. You hear?!" She stormed out of the room.

"Troublesome woman.... great, now I am starting to sound like that Nara brat." Grumbled Eito as he too walked out with sagged shoulders.

A/N: Not much is known about chakra natures such as dark release, steel release and swift release. So I will be adding my own levels of fantasization of these chakra natures as the story progresses on.
