Authors note:

What follows are bios of the different characters that I created and currently existing characters. After this will be chapter one of Rokudaime Naruto.

Name: Uzumaki Naruto

Age: 24

Occupation/rank: Shinobi/Hokage

Back-story: after years of being shunned and hated Naruto has found friends and people precious to him. He has the respect of his village, although a bit grudging with some people, as he was named Hokage. Married to Hyuuga Hinata, from now to be referred to as Uzumaki Hinata, they are currently expecting a child.

Techniques: Kage Bunshin (Shadow clone), Rasengan, Odema Rasengan, Hiraishin (Flying Thunder God Technique), Kugutsu-rasengan (puppet rasengan), a summoning pact with toads, and many other various techniques

Name: Uzumaki Hinata

Age: 24

Occupation/rank: Shinobi, Hyuuga clan heiress/Jonin

Back-story: has been looked on as weak by her clan, Naruto was her inspiration. In order to get him to notice her she trained to become strong. Is now recognized as a worthy heir to her clan but is passing that up as wife to the Hokage. Is pregnant and off of active duty for the duration.

Techniques: Juken style, Byakugan, she has great chakra control and flexibility and combining those aspects with her clans abilities in Juken style has created a technique, her own ultimate protection that is comparable to her clans rotation style, she is also skilled with medicines and ointments can also use 64 palm strike.

Name: Kawazu

Age: 22

Occupation/rank: Toad sage, wandering hermit/considered at a rank of Sanin

Back story: Jiraiyas son 2 years younger than Naruto long white hair tall and powerful quiet reserved and ambition in life is to live up to his fathers name (the noble sage not the pervert part of his fathers personality) and after meeting with Naruto is offered the chance to do just that. Raised by his mother and has seen his father a few times in his life but not enough to have the bad part of him influence him. He both respected his father for what he did with his life and at the same time there is a slight resentment in how he was rarely there for him and his mother. When Jiraiya died and his mother Mugen lost her will to live and died leaving a 15-year-old son when she finally passed. Meeting Naruto at the age of 17 he still respects his father for his life but the resentment has increased due to his mother passing due to it. He accepts the job that was once his fathers with the thought that it would make his mother happy and allow him to be a better man than his father was, surpassing the man in his endeavors in his eyes will both honor him and prove himself the better man.

Techniques: unknown to anyone but Naruto has seen what he can truly do but it is apparent that he to has a summoning pact with the toads, and is recognized by the toad elder as the human sage for them. There is one thing to consider, Kawazu is the toad sage in place of his father, and therefore has his fathers abilities

Name: Uchiha Sasuke

Age: 24

Occupation/rank: Sanin, right hand to the Hokage/rank is also Sanin

Back-story: now is trying to live out his life. He has avenged his clan massacre by killing his older brother, Itachi. He was named the Snake Sanin to take the place of Orochimaru, his unofficial mentor.

Techniques: Sharingan, multiple fire Justus, Chidori, is skilled with his blade and in hand to hand combat, can copy many techniques with his Sharingan with the exception of other Kekai Gankei such as Byakugan and also cannot just copy Narutos Hiraishin ability.

Name: Haruno Sakura

Age: 24

Occupation/rank: medical ninja, hospital doctor/Sanin

Back-story: continuously trying to win Sasuke, her fellow Sanin, but without the vigor she had used when she was younger. She was named the second slug Sanin, as she was apprentice to Tsunade the original slug princess. Like her teacher she is quick tempered and takes offence at the simplest things (especially when Naruto did that simple thing) she is also very level headed, an odd combination to be sure, some say she may be bi-polar.

Techniques: medic abilities and extreme control of her chakra, she can enhance her physical power to the point of leveling a building, is fairly skilled in hand to hand but not that fast. So therefore while she may be able to crush your chest with a single punch, can be dodged easily by a speedy opponent

Name: Nara Shikamaru

Age: 24

Occupation/rank: strategic advisor to the Hokage/Jonin

Back-story: a member of the old team 9 along side his best friend, Chouji and unrelenting shrew, Ino, Shikamaru is a brilliant tactician. Though extremely lazy he was the first in his age group to make Chunin level and stayed in that rank for many years as "it is too troublesome to go any further" that and he liked where he was. He has, finally, put an effort in and risen to the rank of Jonin very easily. Naruto named him his military/strategic advisor, a position that he took most grudgingly. He is very aware at what he can handle and will not rush blindly into things. He cool headed view makes him an ideal squad leader as his emotions will be less likely to fail. His life-dream is to marry a woman who is not too pretty and not too ugly, have two kids first a girl then a boy. He would retire from his shinobi profession when his daughter is married and his son is named a ninja, to spend the rest of his days cloud watching and playing 'Go' and 'Shogi' until he died, peacefully in his sleep before his wife.

­

Techniques: a shadow user his clan specialized in shadow techniques, such as controlling his opponents to strangling them with his shadow, and also creating spears from his shadow. His intelligence is also to be considered a powerful weapon in his arsenal; he had an I.Q. of over 200 and can come up with plans and formations many times over, all of them extremely effective.

Name: Ankuko Mayte

Age: 17

Occupation/rank: Shinobi/Jonin

Back-story: skilled ninja, was the top of his class in his years at the academy, he comes from a normal family and therefore has no clan or any other ninja affiliations in his blood. He is cocky and a bit conceded, which is something that he old teammate and friend tries on a continual basis to beat out of him. He is very skilled with genjutsu, and Taijustu, has very good control of his abilities. He has no special abilities as others do but makes up for it in his skill with every thing else.

Techniques: normal techniques, skilled in weaponry and precision, can create clones and shadow clones but not as effective with those as his old sensei, Naruto. He also has taken to sword fighting after his time training with Sasuke and is proficient with a katana.

Name: Inuzuka Kemonoi

Age: 17

Occupation/rank: Shinobi/Chunin

Back story: Inuzuka Kemonoi and his dog Kuromeru bottom of the class a prankster like Naruto was skilled in his families style of fighting can use the fang over fang technique used to have poor chakra control for enhancing his sense of smell and therefore his aim with his technique was off tended to power through situations. He has trained and his control is on par with his teammate and (coughgirlfriendcough) Hyuuga Hana.

Techniques: skilled with his family beast brawler style, fang over fang technique, and beast merger (I'm not really sure what that one is called, but it is when the ninja and the dog meld and form a massive two headed wolf-like creature.

Name: Hyuuga Hana

Age: 17

Occupation/rank: Shinobi/Chunin

Back-story: she is a main branch member is very outspoken physically she could be stronger but she is fast and flexible making her a very hard target. She is going out with her teammate Kemonoi. The two get along very well, sometimes butting heads but that is good for them.

Techniques: Juken style, Byakugan, she has great chakra control uses also rotation, and 64 palm strike.

Name: Rock Lee

Age: 25

Occupation/rank: Shinobi/Jonin

Back-story: was once thought that he would never make it as a Ninja, he sought to prove to every one, that with hard work (a lot of hard work), even someone that cannot use and Ninjustu and Genjutsu could be a ninja. His personality is much like his old sensei Might Gai, very outgoing and friendly, he never gives up. He even took to dressing like his mentor. No one is really sure why as the green spandex jumpsuit is not really the most practical ninja garb than can be found. I believe that he mimics his sensei due to the fact that Gai was the first to truly believe that Lee can achieve his goals with pure determination.

Techniques: extremely proficient in Goken (strong fist), primary and secondary lotus, he can push through and open the celestial gates allowing him great power for a while. When using that ability he must end it quickly as the toll it takes on him is almost as bad as what he dishes out to an opponent when in that state. It has been discovered that he is a natural drunken boxer and when he came of age now keeps a bottle of sake strapped to his belt, as a secret weapon. When in that state he is a mean drunk, faster and very unpredictable. He pulls of the wall moves from thin air and uses every thing in his reach to fight.

Those are the bios that I will write; these are the characters that I created and also my favorite from the show that will be playing a larger role in my story than others.

And now I will go onto the story.

Rokudaime Naruto

Chapter One

It was a month latter and it was nighttime in the desert, Kawazu was in a meeting with the Kazekage. The red haired Shinobi was sitting at his desk with his hands folded before him as the younger white haired Sage was speaking.

"So that is the issue Kazekage-sama," he said respectfully. "The Hokage believes that the container of the Ichibi will make its way here."

Gaara considered this and then looked to his visitor, "firstly, as you are a friend of Naruto's please, enough with the formalities. My name is Gaara." Kawazu nodded his understanding, and Gaara continued. "That being said, it is true I had a feeling that the demon would come around this way, after all it makes sense here is where he will be more powerful." Gaara sighed the stress of the job getting to him, "but that does not make it any easier, it is true that now we can be sure of where his will go but once there he will prove himself a difficult challenge."

Kawazu nodded once again before speaking, "and that is why Naruto sent me here. Not that he feels that your village wont be able to defend itself," he said quickly. "It is simply that if help is needed it would not do to have his allies and friends decimated by what was once considered their hidden weapon."

Gaara remained impassive but Kawazu could tell that he was both annoyed and grateful. "I thank him for his concern, and he can be sure that we will call on them if, and only if, the need presents itself." He paused for a moment and the stood from his desk and motioned to Kawazu to follow him. Gaara led him outside to his balcony overlooking his village.

He waved his hand over the village and said to Kawazu, "I know it is not like Konoha but this is my home and if anyone is going to protect it, it will be me."

Kawazu took in the desert village, "true not like Konoha, but I never said that it was worse." He was gazing at the place, "this village is very peaceful and I like it. I hope it stays that way." Kawazu sighed, "also I understand that you will protect it but I will offer my help if ever needed."

Gaara glanced over at Kawazu and he smiled, "that is appreciated." The two stood there in the desert wind, and Gaara spoke again. "So how is Naruto doing now? I have not seen him since he was announced Hokage."

"He is well, he got married and his wife is currently expecting."

Gaara smiled again, "well he certainly works fast doesn't he?"

At that moment a Chunin landed next to the pair and head bowed said "Kazekage-sama, there is report of a disturbance outside of the main gates."

Gaara looked over and questioned, "what kind of disturbance?"

The Sand-Chunin stood strait and looked gravely at Gaara, "there is word of loss of a patrol, apparently they where swallowed by the desert."

Gaara flinched and snapped his gaze to the main gates and Kawazu followed his example before speaking, "we wont be able to see anything from here, Gaara."

Gaara nodded and said to the Chunin, "Go and find Temari and Kankuro, let them know that they are to assemble a platoon of mid to long range specialists. If this is what I think it is then we must be careful and keep our distance. Once they are set have them meet me at the gate."

The Chunin nodded once and disappeared and Gaara turned to Kawazu, "can you sent word to Naruto?" Kawazu nodded and Gaara continued, "ok then let him know that the attacks seem to have started, he should not come here yet, wait until we have some more information. After you send that come out to the gate and take a look, ok?"

"Not a problem," said Kawazu and Gaara took off. Kawazu bit into his thumb and made the signs needed for summoning. Soon there was a poof of smoke and there sat a small dog-sized frog.

The frog looked up at Kawazu, "oh it's you," it said "what do ya need?"

Kawazu sighed, Gamaichi was always brash. "Listen this is important," the frog looked around but nodded to show he was paying attention, "I need you to go to Naruto, let him know that the demons might be attacking shortly and then com back here once the message is delivered."

The frog nodded once and said, "You got it boss," then disappeared in a poof of smoke.

Kawazu made his way to the gate to join Gaara. As he neared the area the frog showed up again, sitting on Kawazu's shoulder. Kawazu stopped and Gamaichi spat up a small scroll. The scroll then burst into smoke and there stood Naruto in his robes, twirling a tri-pronged kunai he muttered "weird way to travel."

Kawazu stared at him and said "Sempai, you did not have to come here. You left you village unprotected?"

Naruto glared at him, "hey give me a bit more credit than that, Kawazu. I did not leave the village." At this the younger looked confused and Naruto went on. "I am a shadow clone, I wanted to see this for myself." He held up the kunai and said, "if however I am needed the real thing can be here in a flash."

Kawazu nodded and the two took off again to the gate. They reached the outer rim of the village and the expanse of the desert stretched out before them. Gaara looked around as he felt the two approaching. "Naruto? Why did you leave your village?" he looked annoyed, "did you not think we could handle this?"

'Naruto' shook his head "I just wanted to see so I sent one of my clones."

Gaara nodded then turned back to the sand, "look its right there" he said as he pointed to the problem area.

A little way off there was what looked like a whirlpool of sand on the desert floor. In the middle stood a dark figure. Even at this distance they could feel it's murderous intent wash over them. The sheer power of it was intense.

The clone whispered, "Crap, it really has started."

Authors note: Yes I know that the official chapter is short, but there is more to come. I hope you enjoyed and remember please review.
