PING!
Congratulations! You have been chosen to play Naruto The RPG!
You have a condition, Selective Amnesia!
Motor functions retained!
Please select a name
What…? I looked around, there was a complete darkness, a void, nothingness. I tried to think of what happened to me, but I couldn't remember much, no name, family or home. What happened to me? Maybe I died? That would make sense. But then what does this make? Reincarnation? Probably reincarnation.
Name. What to name myself… I don't really know. A name is something someone is called for the rest of their life, I remember that much at least. That means that choosing a name is important. From what I remember Naruto is, it's a series, Japanese, so I'll have to choose a Japanese name.
I sighed, would've been easier if I could choose an English name. What to choose, what to choose. I tapped my chin in thought. I don't know any Japanese names… I don't know any names in general. Well, I would like to think of myself as a legend, like a mythical being. So, maybe..
"Dragon." I said to the blue box in front of me.
Chosen name [Ryuu]. Confirm?
I pressed confirm.
Select country
Fire
Water
Lightning
Earth
Sand
I don't really remember much, but I think Fire is the best. If I remember correctly, it's where the whole series takes place, so I think it's best to choose there.
I selected Fire.

My stats showed itself it seems. I am an Uzumaki, that's nice. I already have a lot of HP and CP, which I think means chakra points.
Enjoy!
I awoke in a comfortable bed, the sheets felt really soft and all I wanted to was to snuggle closer to the warmth it provided.
"Ryuu-chan! Wake up 'ttebajo!" a feminine voice called from outside. I'm most likely at home, but I wonder where home is, I wonder if I can regain the memories of this body.
I sat up, my room is quite simple, black and blue, different types of blue, and some splashes of red. I like it, I decided. Welp, time to get up. I stretched when my feet touched the fluffy carpet. I searched my memories and saw that my morning routine consists of finding clean clothes if those I have are dirty, go to my bathroom, take a shower, take a piss, and finally brush teeth. Reasonable, I think.
I did exactly what my mind told me. When I was brushing my teeth, I looked at myself in the mirror. Spiky crimson hair, medium eyebrows and big innocent dark blue eyes, small nose and small lips. It was weird looking in the mirror, it felt wrong but at the same time, it was right.
"Ryuu-chan! Are you done yet?!" the feminine voice that I now recognized as my mom asked.
I spit out my toothpaste and washed my mouth with water.
"Yeah! I'll come down in a bit!" I replied, sure that mom heard me.
I dried my face and hands and picked up my clothes. It's a simple outfit really, black pants, a blue t-shirt and a loose zip-up turtleneck. Comfortable and warm here by the ocean. I went downstairs to the kitchen, my memories guiding me.
"Good morning sweetheart." My mom smiled at me, giving me a hug and a kiss on the forehead. She has straight candy red hair which reaches her back, and a beautiful braid which holds her hair to the side of her face. Her face is a little angular, but mostly on the narrow side. Her eyes are purple and a little round, and her nose is small. She has a dark blue short kimimo on, the ends of the kimino reaches her knees it's simple, but nice. She is actually a ninja herself, a damn good one at that, but she is off-duty for the last couple of months, her gear is just hanging in the hallway in the meantime. I don't know why though.
"Mooom, you know I don't like when you dote me like that." I whined.
"Aww, how can I not do that when you look so cute?" she teased back.
"I am not cute!" I pouted.
"Yes you are. Especially when you look like that." She smiled warmly.
"She's right lad." My dad interrupted our conversation.
I looked at him, he has spiky crimson hair like me, and he puts his hair in a ponytail, it's not a long ponytail. His face is quite angular, and he has sharp eyes which twinkle with happiness. His eyebrows are thick, though not to a huge extent, they fit him. His eyes are blue and his nose is straight and narrow. He has on the standard Uzushio Jounin uniform on, which consists of a pair of black shinobi pants with extra pockets at the sides, with bandaged legs, a black turtleneck with the Uzumaki swirl on the arms, and a gray green Jounin jacket with shoulder pads and a neck protect thing around the neck not including the front. The jacket has a zipper, and many, and I mean many pockets. He has a huge pouch on his back hip and an Uzushio headband around his arm. The Uzushio headband has a swirl on the metal plate.
When he is off duty he just takes off the flak jacket, pouches and headband. In the hallway hangs a huge white cloak with black waves licking the bottom, it covers almost the whole body, leaving only the front open. Nidaime is written on the back with the same color as the waves. The cloak has a huge sealing formula on the inside. Every time I see it I get fascinated, I ask my dad about it but he just chuckles and says 'I'll tell you when you get older.' I usually pout and puff my cheeks out as an answer.
"You should eat before the food gets cold lad." My dad said to me.
"Oh no! My food 'ttebaro!" I exclaimed with arms flailing around, and began to bolt to my seat, on the table lay a plate with a warm breakfast. My parents chuckled at my antics.
My dad began to leave, walking even more silent than he usually does.
"Oh no you don't 'ttebajo!" my mom began to drag dad and push him in a chair. I just watched in amusement while I ate.
"First you have to eat. I made special breakfast for you." my mom said very seriously. Meaning that she experimented with food.
My dad began to sweat bullets, immediately understanding what that meant.
"Yes dear.." he said, looking at the food in front of him in utter demise. He began to eat, taking the food gingerly with his chopsticks, and putting the food in his mouth, he blanched and began to chew.
All my mother did was clap her hands together and grin. "Do you like it? I checked if some sea salt would help making it taste better, I also added some narutomaki in it for even better taste." Either she knows it's completely disgusting and enjoys the misery of her husband, or she is completely oblivious to it.
"I love it." he drawled out.
"Great, 'cus I have a whole pot with that stuff, when you come back home you can eat more 'ttebajo!"
My dad blanched even more if that was possible, understanding that he screwed himelf.
"Ryuu-chan, do you want some?" mom asked me, luckily, I had just finished my food.
"No thanks mom, I'm full!" I grinned at her. I am really lucky at this moment.
My dad looked at me in envy and like he was going to puke at the same time, he finished the disgusting food and muttered a goodbye, me and mom enthusiastically grinned and replied with a bye!
After that I just went to the living room and lay down on the sofa and began to think. It was so easy to just interact with my parents and at the same time, it's just unnatural how calmly I accepted my situation. Maybe it has something to do with the Naruto RPG thing? I did see my stats in that void. How do I open it though? It is my stats, I saw that I could see my conditions there and my HP and CP, does that mean it's called status?

Nice! I figured it out! There is probably a menu for skills.
Skills
Calligraphy (PASSIVE) – LV 10 - MAX
Calligraphy is writing just more decorative. You have to master this first to learn fuinjutsu.
10% better fuinjutsu
Sprint (PASSIVE/ACTIVE) – LV 4 – 72%
Sprinting is what mammals do with their legs, it's like running but faster.
(ACTIVE) 40% faster sprinting, consumes 60 SP per second.
(PASSIVE) 4% faster sprinting, consumes 6 SP per second.
I have alright skills. I haven't entered any shinobi academy, so that's understandable. I really hope I can learn fuinjutsu soon though, that would be a lot of fun.
So there is skills and status. What more, what more… well, there has to be some sort of perks right?
Perks
Uzumaki – As an Uzumaki you gain a 300% EXP t fuinjutsu, and you automatically gain 3 points in VIT and CP every level, you have huge chakra reserves, stamina and chakra reserves naturally. You also regenerate HP, CP and SP faster.
Gamers Mind
Helps the user get calm and gives resistance to phycological effects.
Gamers Body
Lets the user have a body that of an RPG character. Resting in a safe place restores HP.
Well, I don't have many perks, but goddamn that is nice! Now I really, really want to learn fuinjutsu, with my boost, I could probably master fuinjutsu in only 5 years or something, which is a really short period of time considering most fuinjutsu masters take 10 years! And my gamers mind and body is rea-
"ONII-CHAAAN!" a high pitched voice called out to me. I searched my memories and found out that I actually have a little sister. Her name is Kushina, she's actually quite the ball of energy. She probably came later for breakfast or earlier, then went to her room.
"I want to play!" she literally screamed at me while running toward me at full speed, my eyes widened, it looks like she has no plans to decelerate. I quickly sat up, so that she won't jump at me or something. But, I was too slow, she jumped right at my torso, knocking the air out of my lungs. When I could breath normally again, I looked at my little sister.
Her candy red hair reaches her shoulder blades now, and I have no doubt she won't cut it soon, her grin was stretched impossibly much, and purple eyes twinkling with mischief. She was still wearing her pajamas, indicating that she has just woken up or just too lazy to take on clothes. She is only three years old, but she looks so much like mom. Heh, the boy looks like dad and the girl looks like mom, what a surprise.
Now that I think about it, why does the name Kushina sound familiar? Wasn't she th-
"Oniii-chaaaan! Play with me 'ttebane!" it wasn't a question, it was a demand, and when she demands something, she will get it.
"Relax imotou, but I can't play with you if you won't let me get up, you know." I chuckled a little when she flushed red and scurried off of me. I stood up and stretched. I looked at Kushina, looking eager.
"What are we waiting for little tomato? Let's go datterbaro!" I grinned when I saw she lit up like a Christmas tree.
"Follow me 'ttebane!" she began to manhandle me, even though she was 10 cm shorter than me.
And the thing with verbal tics, yup it exists, and it's weird because you can't really control it. It just comes out of your mouth, even if you try to stop it won't really work. But you know, this life I can get used to. A loving family and a little sibling I love. I just hope that my future won't be as bad as I think it will be.
AND CUT! I am an amateur writer with too much time on my hands, I really hope this was okay. And I won't use the kaa-chan and tou-chan thing I can just use the English variations, but since referring to your siblings in Japanese gives you more variations, I'll use the imouto and aniki thing. I thought, why not try this gamer fic thing going on, its fun to read, so why not make one. I know I made the bane of all fanfictions, a self insert, though I tweaked the personality. So I'll just call it an OC.
Oni-chan – it's a casual way to say big brother in Japanese.
Imotou – little sister in Japanese.
I thought about verbal tics with Kushina and Naruto and thought, well it must come from somewhere, and since Naruto inherited it from Kushina, and Boruto inherited it from Naruto, I thought it runs in the family. So I made the mother of kushina and my wonderful OC/SI have a verbal tic as well.
'ttebane/Dattebane – This is a verbal tic of Kushina's
'ttebaro/Dattebaro – I chose this to be the verbal tic of Ryuu, I remember I read it somewhere, don't know where though, so I am sorry if it's yours and I just took it from you without permission. But I don't know if I am going to change it though, because it's just gonna take too much time
'ttebajo/Dattebajo – well, this is the verbal tic of the mother (I have yet to choose a name), and the way to say this is quite easy, just use the j sound from just. So have that weird j sound at the j. wow, that's a lot of j's.
Well, if someone actually read this first chapter, thanks! Please go easy on me with English, it's my second language, technically third but my first language I don't even use, I can't even speak it, just barley understand it, so I'll just say English is my second.
If you enjoy, favorite or review or both, I don't really know. I've never really used the full potential of , only read some stories and favorited it and followed those. Oh, follow too! I don't think I'll abandon this story, I have some cool ideas and a unique spin for this story. I have never read any story with my spin on it, so I really hope I can execute it good. I have yet to place this unique spin though, just wait a few chapters, it'll get there.
I took some ideas from the story Yami: The Gamer Kage, I really hope that's okay though, I don't want to get killed or anything.
This chapter is quite short, well, it's very short compared to what I usually write in scrapped ideas. This is my first story I publish, as mentioned previously, I had some scrapped ideas.
Well, now I'm just rambling. Those who actually like this story, thanks again and if you want more, follow I guess. *chuckles nervously*
