Warning: cursing, female Naruto, grammar (no beta reader). I will see to some of your suggestions, but I pretty much have a clear idea of how this story is going to go, so if you don't like what I write, I'm sorry, better luck next time. Sorry my story isn't so original or exciting, but this is my second try, be nice. Oh yea, neither are my titles. High school theme. Naruto x Sasuke, naruxshika, naruxgaara. Not yaoi or yuri, for the most part, anyway, but not any major characters, unless i change my mind. Spoilers (naruto's actual parents)
Disclaimer: if I owned Naruto, Hinata would be quiet but deadly and Naruto would lose that ugly orange suit. Unfortunately, or not, I don't, so there.
Chapter one: The Start to the End.
Staring at the modern plain purple laptop at three thirty in the morning was one Naruto Uzumaki, sitting on her bed, leaning against her bed board. Next to her legs, cuddling was a cute, small fox with red fur and yellow stripes and a white snout with the cutest little fox ears.
Both of them yawning, Naruto turned her big sky blue eyes towards the alarm clock and sighed. She was wearing a white tank top that reached right above her belly button, showing off her belly button ring and red sleeper shorts. She had her hair pulled up top her head in a messy bun and a beautiful necklace, which was very precious to her and she rarely takes off, around her neck.
She was about ready to go to bed. Yawning again, she saved and closed a couple documents, put passwords on others, and committed some to memory. She was practically a computer whiz, almost always on the computer. Yawning a third time, she looked at the clock which read three forty five and sighed, closed her computer, and thought, 'damn, I need to go to sleep. I start school today/tomorrow.'
Naruto Uzumaki, sixteen and a half years old, was forced to start school today in the middle of the year because of safety reasons, going to a junior class. Her dad a scientist, both physicist and a chemist and her mom a surgeon and life saver, both world-renowned and billionaires were killed when she was five. They left all their fortune, which was a lot, findings, scientist/doctor stuff, everything to her in secret place she always keep on her ever since she was born. She used to live in a modest house with her two parents and fox, with her godfather and uncle visiting every now and then. Now she lives in a small one bedroom apartment somewhere in Godai Mura, California. It all started on her fifth birthday…

Flashback
Naruto loved her parents to death and she was blessed to have such loving parents, but with all the things they have to do and places to be, they couldn't find time for her like before, they couldn't even be here for all of her fifth birthday.
So she sat in the lonely house in her room with her pet fox, Kyuubi, trying to cheer her up, sensing her sadness, comforting her. The only sounds in the house that she could hear was her sighing, Kyuubi's whining, and their maid/housekeeper, Aya moving about downstairs. She spoke Japanese and a little English, just coming from Japan, but she was learning, and plus, the family loves her as a part of them. From time to time she would sit with Naruto when she was lonely like a day like this and teach her some Japanese. Her heart was reaching out to the little girl, but she was at loss at what to do.
Naruto was trying so hard not to cry.
She wore a cute little kimono that Aya got for this special occasion, plenty more in the closet. She, with the help of Aya did her hair in two long, neat braids along her back with all sorts of ornaments on it. She even put on her mother's obnoxiously orange stilettos, making them look like a giant's shoe. And she was pretty short even for a girl her age so it look so cute and funny that she just had to beam at her reflection with Aya standing in the back, giggling in her hand. She was so excited that morning when her parents came in, wishing her a happy birthday, showering her with love, kisses and tears that their little girl is growing up. After hugging her, they told her that they were coming late tonight, because of this ceremony they had to attend. They managed to see the look of disappointment, but not surprise in her eyes before she covered it with a fake smile. She didn't want them to feel guilty. They both shared a look with each other and told her that they were going to get her something extra special and that she shouldn't wait for them if it gets too late. She nodded but they knew she was going to anyway. Both of them sighing and leaving, taking their white lab coat with their nametags on the, they left after kissing her goodbye and wishing her another happy birthday. After they closed the door Naruto let out a breath she didn't know she was holding in and a tear fell down face. Wait, she did. It was eleven thirty at night and only uncle Kakashi, Jaraiya jii, and Aya saw her. She was really disappointed but happy. The two men soon had to leave having to go to a doctors meeting, Kakashi being a psychiatrist and Jaraiya being a plastic surgeon.
They left, albeit reluctantly and apologizing, each giving their own presents. Naruto was just happy they came to see her. She always loved it. Even though she was extremely sad about her parents, she plastered a somewhat strained smile for their sake, not wanting them to feel guilty, for her sake. She was always thinking about others even at her age. After they left, the house was quiet, now only the sound of Aya doing something downstairs. Then she heard her door open and looked up from braiding Kyuubi's hair.
She was surprised to see Aya come in holding a tray of cake and a knife with two plates and soda. Naruto thanked her for her efforts of trying to cheer her up and they enjoyed this time together only talking a bit. Aya was like an older sister to her and they sat in comfortable silence. Aya hugged her and said in a clipped Japanese accent, "Don't worry young one and have a happy birthday." Naruto could have snorted and said happy my butt, but she didn't and just hugged her again. When Aya speaks, it's always words of wisdom and encouragement. Aya took the plates downstairs to wash them.
Naruto knew she couldn't really be ungrateful. She had people who loved her and a house to live and food to eat. It could be much worse, she told herself, but she couldn't ignore the stinging in her heart. She moved towards the windows and sighed. So this is where she finds herself at eleven thirty. She tilted her head against the window when she heard a siren off in the distance. Resting her eyes a bit, for only what felt like twenty-five minutes, she opened them again to hear the siren going off again, and then they stopped. Looking curious she suddenly spotted car lights coming into the driveway.
By now it was pouring rain and she couldn't see clearly outside. She realized that that may be her parents! She quickly got up and kicked off her high heels and looked in the long mirror on her door. She looked strikingly like her father with feminine features and her mother's personality – headstrong and confident, also outgoing and sunny. The boys would surely be after her like a dog on a leash. With it being eleven fifty-seven, there's three minutes to spare!
Racing to the door and into the hallway, she suddenly froze. Her vision faded to an eerie gray, black, and white setting. It was so cold she was shivering and could see her breath. Holding herself tight she noticed she was going down the hall downstairs without even moving her legs. She decided she was going to see what would happen.
It felt like an out-of-body experience. Her hair was blowing like there was a strong wind. She finally found herself at the front door. The front door opened by itself to reveal a short man in shorts and sweat-shirt and kind eyes. He had his hand up as if he was going to knock on it and his mouth open as if he was about to say something. He wasn't extremely cute, but he wasn't atrocious either. Looking at the corner of her eye, she saw Aya in the threshold of the kitchen looking curious.
Turning back to the man, she found him vanished and herself back upstairs holding herself tightly.
She decided to put this off for now. Right now her parents are waiting for her.
Running downstairs, she tripped but got back up and started. Swinging the door open she opened her mouth up wide to squeal. It died down in her mouth when she realized it wasn't her blond daddy or red-headed mommy, but a tall young man with an emotionless face and a clean, crisp all black suit. He had cold calculating eyes and pale skin. He looked HOT! But still, it wasn't her mom or dad.
Looking at the corner of her eye she saw Aya looking flustered at seeing such a cute guy at our door and a little intimidated. He looked down at her after eyeing Aya for a bit making her eep and cower. He was not going to make any small talk or sugar coat it. In a deep silky voice he said, "My name is Uchiha Itachi, a detective from UU CORPS. In Konoha, Godai where your parents were attending an awards ceremony . . .
. . . both your parents were shot three to four times, both got it in the heart the others in other random places."
Naruto stopped listening. She couldn't hear anymore. His lips were moving, but she couldn't hear any sounds, she couldn't focus. She stopped breathing. Her heart gave a slow, painful thud, her stomach clenching tightly, throat restricting. She almost passed out; the Uchiha kept going on about the details. And blood, lots of blood. She could smell it on him. Then and there she wanted to throw up. She remembered to breath and as soon as she did, she felt dizzy and fell, hearing screaming and sobbing, and she was wet. Why was she wet? The screaming and sobbing was coming from both she and Aya, who had came over and was hugging the life out of her and the tears from both of them too. The uncontrollable sobbing, making her voice hoarse.
Tears streaming down her eyes, then. . . Jaraiya and Uncle Kakashi? They were holding her too, crying, but trying to be strong for the girls. The detective kept on going.
" We have two suspects. . ." Naruto looked up from her position and looked into the Uchiha's eyes.
Thank you for reading my first chapter. It'll get exciting later, just wait.
Who are these suspect? what is Naruto going to do? Who is Uchiha Itachi? What does UU CORPS stand for and what does it do?
Read on and find out.
So if you have any suggestions Or comments, just review or email me and I will take into consideration. Sorry if there are any mistakes.
p.s. Godai means five elements or something, and sense i was born in California, I decided to make it there. It's not an actual place I think.
