Chapter 1
On the night of the Kyubi attack the third Hokage was holding a new born child. At this moment he was thinking,'well I could put her in an orphanage and lie to everyone and say the Kyubi was killed...No the council would kill me...I could still put her in an orphanage...Nah they will mistreat her...Kakashi...No he is to young...Jiraiya ...NO he is to Perverted...maybe someone will want her when I present her to the council...I think this might be the best.' So the next day comes and he tells the council about Naruto. Most want her dead especially the civilian council. But the Auburame, Nara, Yamanaka, Amikichi, and Inuzuka said that she was to not be blamed, it was not her fault nor is she the Kyubi, that she is a hero. Unexpectedly the head of the Nara clan Shikaku said this, " I would like for my clan to adopt Naruto and give her a life, family, and home instead of being the village pariah in a orphanage. Also I expect you were expecting something like this, weren't you Hokage-sama?" "Yes but not from you Shikaku. Yes you may adopt her as of your reasons were for a just cause. Who will she live with in your clan?" Shikaku laughs, "My cousin is trying to have a child and will gladly except..." He got cut off by someone entering the room and saying, " I knew something like this would happen and thank you to both Shikaku and Hokage-sama." "Of course Shumazu." that is when the Hokage laughed, then Shumazu said, " Hokage, I would like to talk to you and Shikaku alone." They both agreed and all left the council chambers to the Hokage's office. When they got there they sat down. Shumazu proceeded to say, "Hokage-sama there is some things that I wanted to tell you about how me and Shizuma want to raise Naruto." This got the Hokage's attention and told him to proceed. "Okay Hokage-sama and Shikaku we plan to raise Naruto as if she was any other Nara and also when she is a acceptable age or is able to comprehend we will tell her about the Kyubi and give her reassurance on the subject. Also the same goes for her heritage from the Yondaime and the Crimson Kunoichi Kushina." The Hokage was not surprised but a little shocked on how well planed out this was and how well he presented it with positives and a argument at the same time but before he could question Shikaku said, "I expected nothing less from you Shumazu and I expect you believe her to become genius like the rest of us?" "yes I do Shikaku because I believe environment and encouragement to think a lot is what gives us our genius so early training and shogi are what is going to raise that from an early age." "A solid argument when did you and you wife come to an agreement?" "Easy, just after we saw what happen he told Shikaku we wanted the child and came up with a plan just afterward." The Hokage was beaming and said, "Well I see no problems. Shikaku?" "No I see none ether Hokage-sama, this is all to troublesome."
