The Girl with Flaming Hair

-Uzushiogakure Council Meeting Room-

"But father why must I go to Konohagakure? I'm sure they're other academy students who would love to be the Uzushio liaison and are just as qualified as me" the girl complained.

She stood before her father in their village's council meeting room. She was about 4 feet '9 inches tall. At only 8 she stood above most Academy students her age. She had red long her that touched her lower back and dark blue almost lavender eyes. All these traits were signs that she belonged to the Uzumaki clan of Uzushio. A notoriously wealthy and powerful clan known for their extreme skills in fuinjutsu as well as kinjutsu and their almost godly manipulation of the elements.

Young Kushina understood the most astounding ninja from Uzushio every year in the middle grade of the academy was selected to go to Konoha. Due to their treaty that started long before she was born. She could have scored lower on her exams and testing if she really wanted to avoid being selected as a liaison, but she was a competitor and that was against her nature.

In the land of Uzushiogakure (Uzushio for short) or the land hidden by whirling tides was an island protected by a huge body of water with large whirlpools that destroyed any incoming threats by sea. Making the main island where the most noble of clans and all the villages banks, head offices and important structures were located. Whirlpool is a large land with two parts the main land or island is where the nobles and all political/ military and head offices were. The land off the islands coast was surround by mountains making it a military stronghold. On the Mountains were forts that had armed ninja/ samurai protection 24/7. Even before that large military forts, military outposts can be found few hundred miles before the forts where all visitors must pass through in order to step a foot into Uzushio. That's why the land of Uzushio was known as one of the safest hidden villages there was their strength and wealth was world renowned.

Their shinobi and samurai clans were known for their wealth and for some reason it was also rumored that Uzushio made the most beautiful woman. But each noble family of Uzushio was known for wealth and their induvial family ninjutsu dojutsu fuinjutsu and kinjutsu. But no clan was as well renowned as the Uzumaki clan. The Uzumaki clan being the founders of Uzushio and the reason why the swirl was worn on their ninjas hitaiate. The samurai also wore a swirl but on the backs of their armor.

The land of Uzushio was the only hidden village with both ninja and samurai academy's the samurai came with the Whirlpool Daimyo who used them as personal guard along with a select few ninjas. The rest of the samurai provide a standing military and is 65% of Whirlpools military strength.

The Uzumaki are cousins of the Senju Clan which she was told was once the noblest clan of Konoha, but now has died off only having a few members remaining. Even with their cousin clans decrease of power they still hold their part of the treaty and are loyal to their family and the village they created.

Kushina Uzumaki thought all that was fine and dandy, but she didn't want to be the ninja liaison period. She rather not deal with ninja politics which get way uglier than civilian politics.

She stood before the shinobi and civilian council as well as her father the Uzukage, hoping they would spare her and not make her take the job.

Before her father could speak a reply Rio An'nai the head of the An'nai royal clan of Uzushio spoke

"Lady Kushina, you are the top shinobi of your class both female and male its tradition that we send our best shinobi to train alongside our allies to make bonds and show that we the people of Uzushio still are thinking of our friends." The man said trying his best to be polite. His son Lou had several run ins with the young Uzumaki princess which left his son with a few injuries due to the feared Uzumaki temper. And with the Uzukage present and also a member of the Uzumaki clan he knew it would be best to be polite.

But he was still subjected to a hard glare from Kushina as she started a rebuttal but was cut off by her father

"He is right my beloved daughter. As custom we will send our top shinobi from our academy every 7 years to finish their studies in Konoha as a liaison ninja. You will be placed on a team and treated just like every other shinobi liaison we have sent. I will personally be escorting you to the land of fire along with Jonin ninja Ro Uzumaki."

All the council members gasped at that an older civilian council member spoke.

"Lord Kage, why should you and our top kunoichi shinobi go travel with this year's liaison this isn't normal, yes we always provide protection for our young liaisons, but it's always been a team of jonin, why the change?"

Everyone knew it was a good but dumb question, the obvious difference was this wasn't just any shinobi that was going to be in Konoha for the next few years this was the Uzukage daughter and the heir to the matriarch of his clan so of course he would want to be a part of the team that took her there.

"I understand my role as Kage and I am plenty certain that the council can handle any problems that may arise in my absence. I simply which to escort my daughter to her first assignment as a Uzushio Shinobi. To my knowledge it's not uncommon for the family of the liaison to accompany the shinobi on their trip. Why must I sacrifice more and miss out on this opportunity for my family?"

That shut up both sides of the council as the whispered amongst themselves. Most village kage councils had shady dealing and backdoor agendas but the council of Uzushio prided themselves on family and open-door policies. Holding each other responsible and looking out for one another is another reason why their village is the most successful amongst the great shinobi villages.

"if there are no further questions the council is dismissed and please send in my wife on your way out."

All the members stood and bowed to the kage before making their leave and telling a young woman who had been waiting outside to go in the meeting room.

She was a tall slender woman who looked exactly like an older version of Kushina except her hair was held up in a pony tail.

She walked to her husband after smiling and placing a kiss on her daughter's cheek. Her husband stood a good 6 foot 4 inches tall and had the build of a person who work out daily. His skin was slightly browner than the normal Uzumaki plain milky skin but to her it showed off his eyes which shown light brown matching his brown hair.

"hello, my dear husband "She said laying a thick kiss on his lips both forgetting the presence of their daughter who was smiling she loved her parent's relationship. Which she grew up around her whole life, it was always fun playful and loving sometimes too loving.

She made a coughing noise in hopes to remind her parents of her presence, but it didn't seem to work, and she watched in horror as her father smacked her mom on the ass.

"FATHER" she said blushing deeply turning away hearing the two ninjas laugh as the continued to embrace each other.

"I am sorry dear, I haven't seen your mother all day I just missed her" he said earning a blush from his wife who giggled in to her husband's chest.

No one would think they were looking at the two strongest ninjas that Uzushio had to offer. If she had not witnessed the battle between her father and the previous Uzukage who was her grandfather before he passed no one could convince her that they were so strong. And her mother who was giggling like a fan girl was the only person on this earth to have ever defeated her father in a spar. Which speaks to her strength.

Kushina herself has yet to lose a spar to anyone outside her immediate family she doesn't know exactly how many victories she has but if she had to guess it would be close to 50-6 record those 6 loses 1 to her father who she never dared challenge again, 3 to her mother who she had been spared all but the most recent time of bodily harm. After their most recent spar though she told herself she would never spar against those two unless she wanted to die or was sure she would win. The last two was to her brother Kon Uzumaki who was 4 years older than her at 14 he was already a jonin ninja and he was not as harsh on her in training as their parents.

Stories from her brother told her that father and mother are nowhere near how brutal they use to be with him during his training as the oldest and the true heir to the Uzumaki they had hospitalized him all together a total of 37 times.

See the Uzumaki clan was so strong because they were ruthless in their training pushing their bodies pass their limits. And sparing was a special ritual amongst the Uzumaki back in the older days of her grandfather and his father's days spars between Uzumaki's use to be a fight to the death. And they only viewed it as training and a way to measure ones' power. Uzumaki fights go until the person either stops breathing or is literally unable to move their body. They do this because of a blood limit all Uzumaki's have advanced naturally healing and high pain tolerances along with naturally longevity and huge amounts of charka reserves. Due to the larger number of sparring deaths the Uzumaki clan like their cousin clan the Senju have suffered massive losses now their family stand close to 60 members. And is why the Uzumaki have more modern laws for the sparring but doesn't make it any less lethal,

Each induvial family holds the right to challenge any member or the main family for their place in the clan. So yes, if she were to lose a battle to one of her cousins she would be required to switch positions within the family so say her cousin was the daughter or the family's treasure the second highest position available in the family she would by family law no longer be considered the heir of the matriarch and patriarch but the heir to the treasure. It was a way to make sure only the strongest members of the Uzumaki clan held the top positions.

You would think that this would cause atomicity between the family members but the Uzumaki are weird people battle and blood draws them closer they love strength and are very honorable and carry their names with pride even the lowest of Uzumaki's is one of the strongest members in the village.

"My daughter are you alright?" Kushina shook herself out her thoughts as she looked to her father who was standing staring at her with a look of concern.

"No father I think I am finna lose my lunch do to my parents disgusting PDA"

She shook her head trying her best to erase the image earning a laugh from her family.

"I'm proud of you my daughter for being selected as Uzushio Liaison this term, I know you will make the Uzumaki clan proud."

Her mother looked so proud at her she sighed knowing she had no choice but to make her family proud.

"I will mother"

Both parents smiled in happiness at their youngest child's success. Still embracing each other they moved so they were holding hands and heading out of the council meeting room with the daughter right behind them.

"I'm proud of you daughter now I want you and your mother to go home and pack for the trip. We will be leaving for Konoha first thing tomorrow morning.

"Yes Daddy" said both Kushina and her mother at the same time making the younger Uzumaki blush heavily

"MOTHER"

Kushina felt her blush at her mother's actions as she watched her mother give her father a seductive smile and wink

"I cannot stand you too!" she screamed stomping away from them in embarrassment. Hearing the laughter of both parents behind her.

She was already out the Uzukage tower and halfway home when her mother caught up to her. She just sighed an ignored her mother's presence who laughed and proceed to wrap her arm around her daughter as they walked never breaking their pace towards the Uzumaki compound

"I do not understand you and father need to embarrass me with such actions in public" she said angrily but didn't pull away from her mother's embrace.

Her mother just laughed saying "You will understand my sweet when you have a husband who you love and is as good looking as mine" Kushina looked at her mother who had a dreamy expression on her face and just sighed her parents had it bad for each other

As they got to their clan home which was the biggest clan home in Uzushio they were greeted by their guards. Kushina immediately headed for her room and began to pack for the undoubtable long liaison assignment ahead. When she finished packing exhausted she decided to go to bed early knowing her father was an early riser and would want to get to Konoha as soon as possible

It was 5am when her mother and father barged in her room waking her up demanding she eat and meet them at the bridge for the can start their trip to Konoha.

When Kushina finally arrived at the bridge that led from the island to the mainland she took one last look back at her village knowing she was going to miss it and all its inhabitants the smell of salt water in the breeze and the way the sunset on the water.

She started to walk on the bridge trying her best to keep up she knew her parents were excited to get to Konoha. Probably more excitement shown for her mother who always talks about a Senju clan member name Mao and her daughter Tsuande who is supposed to be 19 years old.

They stopped at her favorite ramen shop which was on the main land off the island before heading out of Uzushio and into the mountains she had never been outside of Uzushio military gates the furthest she's been was pass the forts on the mountains and on to the farm lands that were between the mountains and military bases on the end of Whirlpool lands. So, she was surprised to have passed not 1 but 3 large military bases and this was just the way East she knew that there were more in each direction leading to Uzushio.

The trip to Konoha was uneventful she had annoyed her father asking every few hundred yards if they were close. The three-day trip for any civilian was cut in half by them using the trees to travel. She had been watching her father and mother the whole time they were obviously enjoying each other's company and she figured it was more like a family vacation then a business trip for them. She wished her brother was here for her leaving but he been on an important mission these past few weeks, but her father said that he will make sure Kon comes to visit her as soon as he can.

She was walking behind her parents who were holding hands her father was wearing his Uzukage robes that hid his face and his mother was wearing a slim fitting battle kimono that showed her curves nicely. And her father had defiantly noticed.

She was wearing a black pants that had several pockets for holding ninja gear, a black long sleeve undershirt and black vest that looked like a jonin vest. She noticed black and or white makes her hair color stand out and she's proud of her Uzumaki traits. She was just watching the antics of her parents when she saw the large walls of Konoha come into view she had to admit Konoha had impressive defenses. Because it was hidden well in a deep forest with only a few roads and you would ever know you were close to a major hidden village till it was too late.

With the high walls and few entrance and exit points she could see why this village was so successful.

As they approached the gates she noticed her parents still didn't removed their interlocked fingers and sighed at their unprofessionalism the Konoha ninjas stepped out halting them.

"Uzukage?" one ninja said looking a little nervous at the powerful shinobi before him

"Yes it is I, please take me and my family to your Hokage he should be expecting me.

"Y-Yes sir" he said before disappearing and less than five minutes later three Leaf ANBU appeared before the Uzukage saying "The hokage has asked us to escort you to his office he is excited for your visit."

The ANBU in the middle said before all of them bowed in respects and lead them to the large building in the middle of the village which she guessed was the Hokage tower.

She watched as many people turned to look at them as they walked through the village most harmless glances, but she did spot a lot of lustful stares at her mother. She looked to see if her mother had noticed and if she did she couldn't tell.

As they entered the hokages office he quickly stood at their entrance and smiled warmly at them. She looked at him and wasn't really impressed. He was maybe ten fifteen years older than her father and had a pipe in his mouth. Wearing his hokage robe which cover his whole body. But she knew not to under estimate this man because he was a kage meaning he was the strongest ninja in this village.

He walked around his desk holding out his hand to shake her father's hand as they greeted each other

"Aha Lord Kage Uzumaki it's a wonderful surprise to see you this afternoon. I see you brought you family."

The Sandaime Hokage said looking at her mother than to her his eyes were taken off her as his father spoke "Yes I've brought my family Hokage sama please call me Lou no need for the formalities. This is my wife Ro Uzumaki and my daughter Kushina Uzumaki she will be the liaison between our villages this term."

At this the hokages face showed surprised as he nodded and turned to Kushina holding out his hand "Pleasure to me you Lady Uzumaki it's an honor to have you in our village."

Kushina looked at the man trying her best to find a hint of deceit, so she didn't have to be polite she already didn't want to be here but only saw and read friendliness from the older man so sighed and shook his hand.

"The pleasure is all my Lord Hokage."

"It's a pleasure to meet you as well Lady Ro, your reputation has been heard throughout all nations and not only is your strength as a ninja feared. But also, your beauty has been understated if you ask me."

Kushina watch as her mother smiled lightly and thanked the man for his complements.

"I have already called for the council to come have an emergency meeting so if you will follow me. We can go introduce you all to everyone and you all may call me Hiruzen." The older man said leading them out the office and down the hall they passed four rooms or so before walking in to a council room much like the one they had at home. But this one was decorated with the signs of each family banner they took their seats to the right of the hokage where special guest sits and waited.

They watched as the room slowly filled in noticing the glances and the slight awe some of the members had it was clearly more noticeable in the civilian male side of the council as a few eyes kept glancing at her mother than at her. She was starting to feel uncomfortable until she felt her mother place a hand on her thigh under the table giving her a light but firm squeeze letting her know that she was right here with her.

As the last man walked in the room and took his seat all eyes were on the hokage who spoke loud and clear.

"Welcome all and I thank you for arriving in such short notice. I know you all probably wondered why I summoned you well if you can see "he then gestured to the Uzukage and his family. "That we have special guest with us today and I'd like to introduce you to the Uzukage and his family." The hokage then turned and nodded to her father and Kushina watched as her father spoke just as loud and clear as the hokage.

"Thank you Hiruzen sama, I am the Lord Uzumaki the Uzukage, this is my wife Ro Uzumaki" At that some of the shinobi on the council gasp and a light low murmur was heard Kushina could only hear a few words like

"Strongest kunoichi from the war"

"The Beautiful Flame"

Her father spoke a little louder and harsher to get everyone's attention back on him and eyes off his wife.

"Lastly this is my daughter Kushina Uzumaki" she noticed all eyes on her and had to fight down a blush at all the eyes looking at her

What's wrong with me why am I so shy suddenly

"we are here because Kushina will be the liaison this term between our villages."

At this a lot of nods of understanding came finally realizing why a kage and the world's strongest and most renowned kunoichi even more renowned then their own Tsuande had traveled to their village.

As if summoned the door bust open as two women walked or more wobbled in Kushina noticed one was younger blond with a Dimond on her forehead wearing a green robe that showed off her well-developed breast. She had to be a few years older than her. To the woman's right and shockingly holding a sake bottle was an older woman who wore a robe with a symbol she was brought to recognize as the Senju symbol the woman was stunning with brown hair and blue eyes almost as beautiful as her mother

The hokage was first to speak shaking his head slightly he didn't want to have a bad impression on his guest,

"Please sit Mao and Tsuande you just missed our guest introductions."

"Guest?" Said the older woman with brown hair as she looked as saw someone she instantly recognized

"Ro? Is that you. I know it's you. you have not age a day since I last seen you."

Kushina watched in surprised as her mother smiled brightly as the two kunoichi met and hugged each other.

How is my mother so well know?

"I know Mao it's been too long, it's nice to see you as well Tsuande I hope you remember me you were my daughters age last time I saw you."

Kushina watch as her mother greeted the blond who smiled brightly at her mother and gave her just as big of a hug as the Mao lady did.

"Of course, I remember you, how can I forget you Auntie Ro, you send me letters every month and always give me the best birthday gifts"

"Hey!" Mao said pretending to pout at the statement. The woman laughed and had completely forgot about being in a meeting as they talked about trying to go to the shopping center

"Excuse me ladies but we are having a meeting" Said a man who had bandages all over his body Kushina found it hard to guess his age due to his body being completely covered pretty much.

Mao and Tsuande turned glaring at the man

"Awh suck a pickle Danzo don't you see I am greeting family." Mao said turning

"We will speak after the meeting Mao its wonderful seeing you two really is, ya know."

"Yeah yeah we know" they all laughed and went to their respective seats.

Kushina noticed that both Mao and Tsuande were glancing at her then her mother than back at her and gave her warm smile.

She didn't know why but she smiled back just as kind. Satisfied the two turned their attention to the hokage,

"Now as usual we assume that lady Kushina is a mid-year academy student?" the old man asked looking to her father.

"Yes, she is, trained as an Uzumaki all her life I'm sure that she will exceed the standards of your academy."

"High praise for a young girl you expect a girl to enter our academy and thrive nun the less we are one of the strongest hidden villages there is, producing top ninja year after year. I'm sure your daughter rather practices her political usage than attend the TOP ninja academy" one of the civilian council member said.

The silence that came in the room was literally deadly the shinobi side of the council all have heard the rumors of the Uzumaki and some had the privilege of fighting alongside one, so they knew they were to be FEARED not respected not honored but down right feared. The rumors surrounding the Uzukage wife was heart wrenching. Those war stories of how the Uzukage treated his enemies were legends you told your children at night to scare them and sad to say they were all true.

It was deadly silent for almost 4 minutes Kushina watched as not only the man but everyone in the room was on guard sweating. She could tell that the ANBU in the room were fidgeting nervously.

The calmest people in the room were surprisingly her and her mother even Mao and Tsuande were looking at her father as though he was the devil himself.

Kushina wait and watched as her father noticeably took a deep breath before saying.

"Yes, it is high praise, and every bit deserving. Do you have something against female shinobi? Would you like my wife to demonstrate just how effective Uzumaki woman are."

Before than man could say a word, there was a kunai placed at his throat and a trail of blood was streaking down his neck.

Ro had her kunai pressed against the man's neck with her other hand on his shoulder effectively securing his whole upper body.

She had moved so fast that no one in the room saw her even stand none of the Konoha shinobi or civilian seen her not even ANBU or the hokage himself.

The Hokage didn't know what to do he didn't want his most astound allies to kill a council member the paper work and backlash would be to hectic. But he knew very well he himself could not forcibly stop the Uzukage and his wife for that matter even if he wanted to.

And that thought was going through every shinobi mind as the watched the man's fear growing and growing. The worst part was no killing intent was released from husband nor wife. But her eyes showed clear as day she was ready to take the man's life and anyone else in the room that acted brashly after that.

"P-P-P-Please h-h-h-h-h-help me "The poor man mutter looking at everyone on the Konoha shinobi side each person who met his eyes looked to him then to the hokage then refused to meet his eyes again. He was downright scared and couldn't control his internal bow movements and shit himself.

"Honey please let the man go, the weak man shit himself we should allow him to clean himself up"

Ro smoothly skid the knife over the man throat light enough to cut but not hard enough to kill him as blood poured out and he quickly ran out the room.

Sitting next to her husband she sat just as beautiful and elegant as before saying nothing and looking as if nothing happened.

Sarutobi`sighed deeply lighting his pipe and inhaling thinking

Never test an Uzumaki with their tempers

The room was silent till the Hokage spoke again

"We will place lady Kushina in the middle level classes, as per usual for Uzushio liaisons. Now where would you like her to stay we have apartments used by the pervious liaisons or where you planning other options?"

The hokage knew that the apartments might not be the best choice nothing was wrong with them they were actually high-end apartments but he's dealing with a Kages daughter from the riches clan on this continent he need her stay to be perfect.

"We actually were hoping for her to stay at the Senju Compound if that is okay with Mao"

The Uzukage said as he looked on to the lady

She had a huge smile upon her face

"Of course, that's okay anything for family."

Ro smiled at that when a young man spoke from the shinobi side of the council

"So, it's true of the connection between or Senju Clan and the Uzumaki's Mao?"

Ro had noticed the man he carried himself lazily and looked young to be the head of the clan but biased off his appearance and attitude she guessed he was from the Nara clan. A clan in The Leaf village that can possess one's shadow.

"Yes, Shikaku you are right, the Uzumaki and Senju clans are cousins by blood although more distant almost not even blood related now. Our clans still have been allies since their creation"

Heads around the council seemed to nod in understanding, most previously had heard the rumor but didn't know if it was actually true.

"If there are no further questions this council will be dismissed."

Everyone got up leaving the council room the Hokage and Uzukage stayed going back to his office to discuss more details of Kushina stay as Kushina and her mother walked with Mao and Tsuande to the Senju compound.

They were talking making light talk when out of nowhere they heard giggling and was soon ran up on by a man close to tsuande age with white hair and red marks on his face his eyes glowed with lust as he looked upon Kushina mother.

"Hiya pretty lady my name is Jiraiya I'm one of the legendary sannin who might you be?"

Tsuande glared at the man "Jiraiya get your pervy ass outta here before I shove my foot up your ass."

That made Kushina laugh she liked Mao and Tsuande she could definitely see the resemblance between the girls and Uzumaki woman.

Jiraiya undeterred said "Awh your just jealous I'm not paying you attention no more. You're no longer the finest woman in Konoha."

"I am Ro Uzumaki." Ro said in a simple manner but soon smiled as realization hit Jiraiya like a ton of bricks. She remembered Jiraiya of Konoha from the previous war although he was much younger during the time his behavior has not changed.

"Y-y-you said U-Uzumaki, Ro Uzumaki as in the beautiful flaming death Ro Uzumaki" Jiraiya had obviously lost his confidence to all the girls amusements.

"yes, that is one of my alias"

Just as fast as he appeared Jiraiya was gone with a dash of smoke being the only thing he left behind.

The woman all laughed and talked about the recent encounter as they reached the Senju compound Kushina looked at it and was impressed it was almost the size of her home back in Uzushio, but it felt way bigger due to the emptiness.

Apparently, Mao and Tsuande were the last of her clan and they had a lot of room to themselves.

Kushina was led to her room by Tsuande in the back of the Compound and was told that Tsuande room was two doors down if she needed anything just come swing by.

Kushina nodded and was grateful for the along time as she showered and decided to rest for tomorrow would be a big day she would be introduced to her new class. Thankfully her mother and father weren't going to leave for the next few days till she was settled in.

But oddly enough Kushina felt comfortable and fell asleep as soon as her head hit the bed.

A/N Long chapter I know the first few will be long and trust me this isn't just about Kushina, but I want to develop her character for later next chapter shell be in the academy who will she meet what's instore? Until next time please Review!
