Me: HEYYYY! A new story for a new year. This one's going to be a bit darker that the last ones i posted, you'll see why in a few chapters. XD Naruto is hated (typical)-

Naruto: Hey!

Me: -but not for the Kyuubi reason. This one is rascism and genocide, so i'm warning you now, this is a very tender topic.

Sasuke: Wait what?

Itachi: Do i get to be in this one?

Me: Yes, but you're the bad guy. Even though i love you, Ita-chan 3

Itachi: ...

Sasuke: *snickers*

Naruto: Ita-chan?

Me: OH OH OH! My stalker gave me an Itachi key-chain for christmas! (He's me stalker, so normally i ignore him, but when it comes to Itachi, there's no way to say no. XD

Itachi: ...

Sai: It seems Itachi has a stalker of his own.

Me: *hides Itachi shrine in the closet* I don't know what on earth you are talking about. Clearly, my time is devoted to Sasuke. *covers mouth*

Sasuke: ...

Naruto: Hey, back off bitch, his ass is mine!

Me: And what a fine ass it is... 8D

Sasuke: I'm seriously creeped out right now...

Sai: I found the ItaSasu shrine!

Itachi:... holy fuck...

Sasuke: ... why the hell am I the girl?

Me: YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO FIND THAT!

...

Me: Hey guys, you can put down the torches...

...

Me: and the pitchforks...

...

Me: HOLY SHIT CANDLES! *runs away*

Naruto: I know i should be pissed, but this is too fun XD

Sai: ON WITH THE STORY!


This town

Used to be a pretty place to stay

A place you stopped off on the highway

But all of the things changed on the day

You packed up your bags and you ran away.


Naruto sighed, bracing her body against the shower wall with her hand and watching all the black dye that stained her hair rinse down the drain. It was a pity to plague it with the nasty stuff, but it was better than putting up with all the stares and swearing she received when it was it's natural blonde. Naruto blew a drop of water off of her nose and tipped her head farther down, letting the water trickle down her neck and back, running through the rivulets of scars and the contours of her figure. Naruto shook her head and looked up before reaching for the soap and beginning to lather her hair with it.

If she kept her hair dyed black and used the brown contacts that Granny Tsunade had given her, no one noticed. Some even respected her for sticking around Konoha orphanage like she did, not realizing that she had no other place to go. And as awful as it felt to deceive people like that, she realized it was a necessity. Plus, it was nice to be liked for who she was rather than what she looked like. It was kind of like having a separate life. Like a spy, Naruto giggled.

"Naruto?" There was a knock on the door and Naruto jumped. "Naru-chan, are you in there?" Naruto let out a brief sigh. It was only Ino.

"Yeah." Naruto called back and twisted the water knob to shut off the water. "Just give me a second."

"Okay!" Ino replied. Naruto gave a smile. The girl had a sweet nature, and it was always refreshing. Naruto reached out for her towel, wrapping it around her slim body and covering most of the scars. Her long hair covered the rest and everyone already knew about the ones on her face. She picked up her soap and opened the door.

"Sorry. I kinda zoned out." Naruto apologized sheepishly.

"S'okay!" Ino said. Ino was twelve, six years Naruto's junior and nearly as tall as the older girl. She had bleach blonde hair that bordered on white and pale blue eyes, much like Naruto's, but she lacked that dark tan skin that Naruto had. Ino flashed Naruto a bright smile before squeezing past Naruto into the bathroom with a quick, "Sorry, Thanks!"

Naruto rolled her eyes, shivering slightly from the chill on her damp skin. She began to pad down the hallways to her room, hurrying as her feet were chilled on the gray linoleum tiles. Ino was an innocent looking girl, but Naruto knew from experience that the girl could talk at a mile an hour, day and night. She had been here when Naruto came, only ten then and immediately discarded all of Naruto's flaws and started babbling her life story.

The same could be said for her counterpart. Sakura was also twelve, similar in build except for her jade green eyes instead of Ino's pale blue ones. Underneath all the pink hair dye the girl used, Naruto had once seen the same Ino's shade of blonde though, leading Naruto to suspect that they were actually sisters. There personalities seemed to be polar opposites though. Where Ino was loud and outgoing, Sakura was quiet and more reserved, tending to delve into her thoughts and sometimes not talking to anyone for days on end. And where Ino had instantly warmed up to Naruto, Sakura still couldn't bring herself to look Naruto in the eye.

"Oof!" Naruto was disrupted from her thoughts by ramming into something large, warm, and solid.

"Ouch…" Naruto said, rubbing her rear where she had landed on the ground. Opposite her, there was a similar groan, significantly male. Realizing how she was dressed, Naruto leaped up wrapping the towel tighter around her body.

"I'm so sorry!" Naruto said, holding out a hand to him. "Are you alright?"

It was Sasuke, shaking his head and slightly disoriented. Sasuke had come to work in the orphanage a few weeks ago and had a dark, surly attitude about him that was like a protective barrier of thorns around his mind. He had dark black hair and matching eyes, set in pale skin. He wasn't bad looking, but he was new, which always made Naruto wary until she got to know the person more.

Sasuke looked up at her with his night colored eyes which widened immediately. He heaved himself up, standing a good half a foot taller than Naruto. He reached out and touched her hair, letting the soaking blonde strands run through his fingers.

"You're a Kitsune…" He murmured quietly. Naruto flinched and her worried gaze immediately hardened. So he was one of those. "I thought they were extinct." Extinct. Extinct. Like some good for nothing animal. Like it was a pity that the breed died out.

Naruto took her hair, pulling it from his grasp. She knew what had tipped him off. Tan, blonde, blue-eyed, and now that she was pissed, her eyes were probably taking a red sheen. Trademark Kitsune signs. Naruto knew it wouldn't be long before the scorn started to rear it's ugly head, taking form on Sasuke's face.

"Yes, I am." She said roughly. "Got a problem?" Before the guy could answer, Naruto brushed past him, shoving her shoulder into his chest. Hard. She heard the man give a huff.

"Hey, wait, I didn't even say anything yet!" Sasuke asked. Naruto could hear him following her, but she ignored it. She knew he came from one of the prominent families, and his recognizing her as a Kitsune immediately proved it. She was just going to be more fresh meat for him. More prey.

"You said enough." She answered. She really didn't need this. Her day had been fine up till now.

"Naruto, wait-" Sasuke grabbed her shoulder and Naruto flinched again, jumping away from him and then whirling on him.

"Why? Want to get a closer look? See if I'll be good in the 'industries'?" Naruto yelled. Somewhere in the back of her mind, she knew she was jumping to conclusions, but she had been hurt too much by his kind before. "Well I got news for you buddy. I've been there, and I'm all used up." She hissed. Then she left a puzzled Sasuke standing there, bewildered.

Sasuke stared, completely taken by surprise by Naruto's abrupt attitude change. When he had seen here, she had been smiles and kindness, coaxing kids to eat food and cooking. Sure, he had only been here two weeks, but every time he had seen her, her eyes had been an off brown color and her hair a flat black. She had been swamped in oversized clothes as she bustled around, cleaning and offering kind words. It never occurred to him that she could be a Kitsune. With a really nice body.

"Smooth going, Sasuke-kun." Sasuke closed his eyes as he turned to Karin, only opening them when he was facing her, his face carefully emotionless. Karin was leaning in the doorframe of her room, giving him and amused look and what she apparently thought was a sexy pose. Sasuke thought she looked like a posing fish. With obnoxiously red hair.

"Don't worry. She's always like at when someone finds out her dirty little secret and acts like that." Karin sauntered over to Sasuke, trailing one fingertip across his collarbone. "Once, Tsunade finds out, she'll make you hush up. But other than that, she's nothing more than a nuisance." Karin whispered. Sasuke suppressed a shudder as her breath gazed his neck. This girl was trying way too hard.

Seeing she was having no effect on Sasuke and assuming his thoughts were occupied by a certain blonde haired girl, Karin tried a different tactic. Facing him full forward and looking him straight in the eyes, Karin leaned close.

"Sasuke, She's Kitsune trash. You should know that, with your father being second commander of the extermination force-" Sasuke's gaze flickered and Karin gave a little internal yelp of triumph. She was getting somewhere. "Her kind have no right to live here anymore. Just people like you…" Karin's voice turned whispery again. "And me."

"Get off."

Karin paused, her composure forgotten as she processed Sasuke's words. "What?"

"Get off me, you bitch." Sasuke said. He gripped one of her wrists in his hand, easily swamping it with his palm. He ripped her hand of his shoulder and flung it away from him. Karin gave a little whimper. "If you want to bother pursuing me, maybe you should do a little research." He brought his face close to hers. "I hate my father. I hate his work, I hate what he has done, and I Hate Him. Get it through your head." Sasuke finished, his cold eyes holding the other girl's for a second. Then he turned his back on her, stalking off through the halls in search of Naruto.


Me: Ha. It's over.

Itachi: I'm still not in it...

Karin: I AM!

Sasuke: ... I'm pissed at you.

Karin: why?

Naruto: CAUSE YOU CALLED ME TRASH YOU BITCH!

Karin: hahaha... no hard feelings?

Naruto: AHHHHH! *chases after her with exploding muffins*

Me: whoa, let's keep this g-rated people.

Itachi: Why? It's M-rated.

Me: ... you're missing the point.
