CHAPTER 19: A Chaotic Mess

Anyways, after the information regarding the three, mysterious informants, Minato teleported back home to be in his girlfriend's loving embrace. He needed a break and Kushina was the place he needed to be.

However, Kushina already heard of what happened, but she didn't say anything she just hugged him which surprised him at first, but then he knew that Kushina somehow got some information regarding the surprise visit.

"Want to talk about it?" Kushina asked Minato's back head rested on her chest, and held her arms tightly as she lazily wrapped them around his shoulders.

"No. Not really. I just want to be with you, is that ok?"

"Yeah, that's fine."

"Thanks." they spent the day together in each other's embrace. [A/N: Y'all dirty-minded people it's not what you think.]

Surprisingly, Fugaku felt the same way about the entire ordeal. He didn't feel comfortable with the fact that three random teens showed up and messed up his peaceful afternoon.

It was getting too hectic but if that boy, Sasuke is an Uchiha what was he supposed to tell the elders that act like loud, brash, skanky imperial concubines daily. He didn't even want to think about it.

However, if Sasuke is an Uchiha, there was a possibility that he is his sister's child, but his sister went missing twelve or thirteen years ago...twelve or thirteen years ago.

In the report Hiruzen made at the last minute, Sasuke is 12 years old, which means that he might be his missing sister's son. However, he needed to make sure. His sister excelled in calligraphy, to the point it became a habit to write in that style.

'I should meet that boy soon and ask him to hand me the note or show me the Sharingan.' he thought as he sipped some more green tea that his wife made and placed it on his desk. He smiled a bit at the sentiment before going back to work, organizing his files, signing, planning things, etc.

He also has to prepare a speech for the upcoming mission regarding the supply shortage. He needs to make sure his men aren't only in full spirits but also prepared and makes sure that they don't bring an army of dead bodies. He doesn't want to deal with the compensation or the funerals right now.

THE NEXT DAY________________________________________

Minato decided to visit the apartment the trio were staying in and found the house to be relatively clean until he heard yelling and screaming's from one of the boys?

"Naruto, you dimwit! Do you have any idea how much this shirt cost!"

"Shut up Sasuke! You look ugly in anything anyway!"

"The hell did you just say to me, dobe!"

"You heard me, teme! Or are you going deaf like how you're going blind from overusing your swirly eyes! HOW ARE YOUR EYES SWIRLY ANYWAY! THEIR RED TOO!" When he heard this, he seemed to have a little reassurance that these boys meant the truth and were oblivious to what their kekkai Genkai's value was.

"Shut up! At least it's unique, unlike your stupid chains!" 'Stupid chains? isn't that the kekkai Genkai that solely belongs to the Uzumaki clan? Then is Naruto my brother?' he thought as hope glistened in his eyes. Although he did come uninvited he did at least he could listen in to a conversation that accidentally gave him hope.

Little did he know, the entire fight was staged.

THREE MINUTES BEFORE MINATO'S ARRIVAL_____________________________________

Naruto sensed Minato's chakra sun shining on the roofs of Konoha and he seemed to be heading to their apartment. He told Kurama and Sasuke of the situation and he suggested they pull a little act to secure their claims.

He also asked Sasuke to be prepared since Fugaku might also make a move. Sasuke nodded.

He still had the old, wrinkly paper given by Azazel before he sent him off. Sasuke ripped off a pair of cheap shirts and Kurama made sure he hid his presence before stationing himself near the doorway.

PRESENT____________________________________

"Stupid chains you say?! You can't even do anything in them!"

"Hypocrite!"

"Orphan!"

"Uno Reverse: Says you, orphan!" yelled Naruto

"You backstabbing cheap bastard!"

"Uno Reverse 2: You're the backstabbing bastard!"

"Screw you!" yelled Sasuke as a very loud crash and thud was heard in the room.

Minato was honestly entertained by what he heard until he felt a presence creep up behind him. He jumped back and took a kunai from his pouch.

He thought he has seen the streak of dark orange hair and natural-born red eyes somewhere, but he was too focused on detaining him that he didn't bother trying to remember.

The two teens were still yelling and fighting to notice him. He tried to body flicker him and put the sealing jutsu on his back but then realized that the teen didn't move as he was still carrying groceries?

"Calm down there ninja. No need to attack a harmless boy who just got back from the God damn flea market." he calmly said. Minato blinked before he retracted his kunai and apologized to him. Kurama just shrugged before being stopped again.

"Who are you?" Minato asked.

"Me? Oh, Kurama. Just Kurama." he said as he walked past him, his footsteps didn't make a single sound and his chakra is well hidden. The chakra he felt before was large, condensed, and mastered.

The source was definitely from him. He thought to himself as he carefully observed him. Until he realized that, Kurama was one of the members of the three teens that arrived yesterday.

'According to the report Kurama is only 14 years of age, while the other two are both 12. His chakra control is amazing, it was also mastered without the help of a teacher? Amazing. A prodigy this kid is. I just hope that Konoha would not use this kid as a weapon. Hold on, if this kid is a prodigy could it also be possible that the other two are also prodigies?'

His thoughts were confirmed when he remembered the childish conversation the two teens had. 'Stupid chains and red swirly eyes. They've already unlocked their Genkai. If they mastered it, that's even more incredible, which also increases their valuableness in Konoha...' he thought as he stood where he was for the past five minutes.

Kurama just stared at him and wondered how this man is the 'Yellow Flash'. He couldn't understand how someone like him would let his guard down so easily in front of 'kids' who could kill him in the blink of an eye.

'The similarities between Naruto and this phony were a lot.' he sighed at how miserable his life is. Babysitting Naruto is one thing, but babysitting Sasuke and Naruto?! That's something else.

"Hey brat," Kurama called out to Minato who looked at him with surprised eyes.

"Yeah. You, idiot," he told him confirming his reason for being bewildered in the first place.

"Ah is that so...well uh"

"If you think I'm being rude don't even try to correct me. I won't listen to an idiotic smiling mannequin." Kurama said with a threatening voice, that made Minato sweatdrop and give him a sheepish smile in hopes of calming down this feral animal.

Even so, Kurama flicked his hand in the direction of one of the chairs at the dining table. Minato smiled at that. 'It looks like Kurama has trouble expressing his emotions.' he internally chuckled as he saw Kurama go to the kitchen to cook.

"Right Kurama-chan."

"Don't call me that. I sound like a wus." 'This kid has issues.' Minato thought. 'I think everyone in this house has issues. The other two kids won't stop fighting and breaking things.' he thought as he mildly glanced in the direction of where the loud sounds of fighting and screaming are.

"This is perfectly normal. Those two won't stop fighting. They don't get along but their best friends. They just refuse to admit it, and constantly think they're better than one another when in actuality they share the same brain cell." he said with the tone of 'I'm so done with my life.' Minato laughed.

He then glanced at Kurama and couldn't see his arms only blurs of it. The stove suddenly lit and then he could smell the aroma of miso chicken broth, roasted cha shu pork, and noodles.

In the blink of an eye, the ramen and half-cooked egg were served before him.

"Enjoy, stinking brat," Kurama said with an angry tone that sounded adorable in Minato's ears because his actions contradicted his words and tone.

"Thank you, Kurama."

"Hmph," responded Kurama with a happy grin. Minato saw that and took a mental note to always call him by name.
