A World Full of Pain, A Heart Full of Love

His Beginning: Part 3

'I'm fine. Do you know who your father is?'

'No,' Naruto responded softly.

The fox took a deep breath, looking at his surrounding. He was debating his options of what to do next. He could tell this child who his father was and how he, the Nine-Tailed Fox, was sealed inside him. His other option was to go his merry way and dismiss this kid. He never owed Naruto anything anyways. The fox was never a softy, especially towards humans.

The overgrown fox sighed as he made his decision.

'Naruto.'

'Yes?' Naruto looked up from his feet.

'Sit down, I am about to tell you something.'

'Okay,' Naruto responds, crossing his legs over each other, sitting Indian style.

'So, you don't know who your father is, correct?'

'I've never seen him beforwe.'

'The new Hokage of Konohagakure, Minato Namikaze, was married to Kushina Uzumaki, the jinchuriki of the Nine-Tailed Fox, aka me. Are you following, kid?'

'Yes...I think so...,' Naruto responded, playing with his fingers.

'Okay, so when a jinchuriki is with child, the seal will start to weaken when the child is close to bir-'

'How are babies made?' Naruto interrupts.

'Oh dear Kami,' the fox mumbles to himself, 'You put the hotdog in the bun and poof, you have a kid.'

Naruto's eyes narrow in confusion, 'So if I eat a hotdog, I'm gonna have a baby?'

The fox erupts in laughter. His booming laugh echos off of the tall walls in the sewer.
