Me Time: Thanks for reading, if your reading this. Also some of the things in this story (namely Yabuki Miu) appeared in my first fan fiction The Fan Warrior, so if you're wondering who Miu is ask me or just read the story.
Introduction
It had already been a year after Miu had died. Hoitsu Nariko, the girl who Miu rescued had become Naruto's student. But as previously thought there wasn't enough graduates to make a three man team, but there was enough for a two man team. Naruto became the sensei for Hoitsu Nariko and Mitsu Hisa.
After another year had passed the Cloud Country threatened to invade. Though they are a small land they believed they could take over Konoha. What followed became known as the war that annihilated the whole country of the Cloud. During the battle Nariko who specialized in Lightning element jutsus teamed up with Naruto to create an attack that combined the Rasengan and Chidori.
During the battle Hisa over exerted her chakra supply and was killed as a result. After the battle had ended a memorial was held for those who had lost their lives in Konoha. Casualties believed to be at least seventy from Konoha with losses well into the hundreds for the Cloud Country.
She had already become a Chunin at the age of thirteen. Kakashi taught her some of his jutsus that involved lightning and helped her develop some of her own. With the pseudo-sharingan Nariko was able to use the extreme speed needed while performing the technique and able to keep up with her accelerated movements. Also as a lesser element she could perform wind techniques that were taught to her by Naruto.
Naruto pleaded with the Godaime for a mission that would help him find Sasuke, who had avoided Orochimaru's attempts at taking his body three times already. But the now twenty-two year old was turned down again and again. But he wouldn't give up stating that the if the third times the charm than the fourth time Orochimaru tries to take Sasuke's body he may get it.
After a year of training and missions Nariko would be able to become a Jonin when she turned sixteen. Nariko years later will be known as Konoha's Red Lightning because of her red clothing and specialty in lightning element techniques.
By the time Naruto is twenty-three he still hasn't given up on rescuing Sasuke so Tsunade sends him to the Sound to gather information. The three-month mission is successful after he pinpoints four locations that could be Orochimaru's compound.
Naruto returns to Konohagakure after the three months are up…
Oh! To be continued...! Probably sometime today any way. Review People!! Please?
