Unknown Sibling

Summary: One Day, Naruto is called into the hospital to receive classified information about his family. He is lead to a room where a blood soaked figure lies on the bed. Soon, it is revealed that this person is...his sister? And she contains a portion of the kyuubi! Why is Sakura murderous towards her all of a sudden? And why is Sasuke so protective? No pairing yet. Sakura bashing

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, but I do own this character, so ha!

"Sakura is evil" - speech

'Sakura is evil' - Inner Sakura

'Sakura is evil' - thoughts

'Sakura is evil' - Kyuubi, for Naruto

'Sakura is evil' - Kyuubi, for Asanagi (morning calm (over the ocean))

Just to clarify now, Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke are already a team and have done the bell test, but this is before their mission to the Land of Waves. I want no flames about this, cause I can do this however I want, so if you want to flame, you can either shove it, or tell someone who cares, everyone else, be my guest to review, if you want to flame, do it in a respectful manner so it does not offend me. I am not in the happiest moods right now, and I don't want to have to go into a sadistic, swearing rant. Oh, and to clarify now, Naruto knows he has the Kyuubi inside of him and can speak to him, but he doesn't know how to use the Kyuubi's powers, or what Kyuubi can do. He just thinks it's kinda like an alternate personality. Once again, no flames about this please.

11:23 pm, a Little ways from the Gates of Konoha

A dark figure stumbled down the dirt path leading to Konoha. She gasped as she stumbled into a tree, her already badly wounded arm crashing against the rough bark. She closed her eyes, biting her lip to keep from whimpering. When the pain passed, she slowly raised her bruised face to look ahead of her. There, in the distance, proudly stood Konoha's Gates. She smiled around the pain.

'I'm almost back. I wonder how much he's grown.' she thought wistfully. She sighed, pushing herself from the tree on her bleeding arm. She stumbled along the path again, each agonizing step bringing her closer to her goal. From all the movement, what few wounds had closed had now re opened and were bleeding more profusely. She cursed silently as blackness tore at the edges of her vision. 'Can't stop. Not yet. Not till...I get to the gates.' she thought, clenching her teeth when she tripped and fell on to her nearly dislocated leg, blood splashing everywhere. Pausing to catch her breath from the pain, she slowly returned to her feet. Closer she came to the looming gates. 20 steps...she coughed, blood falling to the ground from between her lips. 15 steps...her wounds became deeper as she kept moving, determined to reach the gates. 10 steps...she fell again, completely dislocating her leg. She clenched her teeth against the unbearable pain that shot like crushed glass through her entire body and struggled to her feet again, limping on her good leg. 5 steps...she clutched her side and more crimson blood poured out of the deep wound that had been inflicted. 3 steps...2 steps. She fell again on her last step. She was so close but she couldn't bear to stand on her feet again, so she used her least wounded arm to drag herself forward, through the gates of her old home. She smiled weakly, nearly passing out from blood loss. Her vision was almost black. Drawing on the last bit of energy she had, she slowly reached into her kunai pouch, pulling out a kunai with an exploding tag attached. She looked at it, then threw it weakly, landing it 5 meters away from her. She sighed. Not far enough, not without her getting badly burned, but it had to be detonated, or she would die. She sighed, using up what little chakra she had left to put up a weak barrier around her, then detonated the note.

Hokage's Tower

The third Hokage was sitting at his desk, finishing up some last paper work that had come in. He was so tired, his head felt like lead, but the work had to be done. He sighed heavily, putting down the ink brush and closing the ink. He stood slowly, stretching his old limbs to their full lengths before putting them down at his side again. He walked tiredly around his desk, shuffling the finished papers into a neat pile and putting them in a hidden drawer. He locked it, the walked across his office. He slowly opened the door, closing it behind him and walked down the set of steps that lead to his office. He bade goodnight to his secretary and left the building. He turned towards his house and was about to go further when an explosion rocked the earth beneath his feet, causing his to stumble. Wide eyed, he looked into the direction the sound of the explosion had come from, to see a flame almost as tall as the mountains surrounding the village, flame out against the starry night sky. ANBU appeared around him, waiting for orders. The third Hokages face turned grim.

"Go see what caused that explosion, and search the area for any people. No one could have survived that blast if they had been in the middle of it." the ANBU nodded, disappearing into the night. the Hokage waited where he had stumbled for any reports.

Sometime Later, Near 1:45 am

The Hokage waited. It had been awhile since the ANBU had left to check and still no word from them. He sighed, closing his eyes and pinching the bridge of his nose.

'They'll come soon. Be patient. Wait. Trust.' he thought to himself. Just as he was about to sit to rest his legs, an ANBU appeared in front of him, the others right behind, all in kneeling position. The Hokage nodded, and they all rose.

"Report." the one in the front, with a cat mask, nodded and stepped forward.

"From the looks of it, it was a very strong explosive note, one of A-rank at least. No civilians were in the area during the time of the explosion and it looked to us at first glance that nobody was there, but then one of my men saw something red and we went to investigate. Very close to the melted concrete of the ground, where the bomb detonated, was the body of a girl. Burned, though not badly, but severely wounded and bleeding heavily. She is unconscious. We brought her straight to the hospital for direct examination, healing, and surgery if need be." The Hokage nodded and was about to dismiss them when the leader hesitated, so he waited. The ANBU cleared his throat before continuing.

"But you see sir, there was something strange about her. While we were bringing her to the hospital, her wounds were healing by themselves. Very slowly, but we saw. Almost signs of the Kyuubi, like in that boy." the Hokage's eyes widened. It couldn't be. The fourth had sealed the Kyuubi in Naruto. Not only that, but it was against the laws of the earth to be able to split a soul in half. The third frowned, thinking deeply. The ANBU waited. After standing, waiting, for 10 minutes in the cool night air, the Hokage spoke.

"I would like to see this girl. See if what you say is true. I don't doubt you, but I am curious." the ANBU leader nodded and proceeded to walk towards the hospital, Hokage in tow.

Hospital

The third stepped through the clear doors of the hospital into the blinding white of the waiting room/front desk area. He and the ANBU strode to the desk and the leader of the ANBU addressed the lady there.

"The Hokage would like to see the badly wounded girl we picked from the explosion." he reported in a monotone. The woman looked at them, then sighed and nodded.

"Down this hall, up the first set of stairs, turn left and its room 301. Be careful, the doctors will still be at work to save her life, and we can't let you stay long, for concern of her safety." the Hokage nodded and proceeded down the hall, following the woman's directions until he stood outside of Room 301. The Hokage knocked then entered after hearing a brief reply. The doctors looked up briefly, bowed, then set back to their work, stabilizing the girl's condition so she would be in critical danger. The Hokage looked through a small gap to get a look at her. She had long, dark brown hair, reaching 3 inches past her shoulders, which was spread out around her head. She had slightly tanned skin, and was very battered. The Hokage looked at the clip board with her conditions written on it, but no name, as there should be. The Hokage frowned, but let it go since she probably hadn't even woken up yet. He looked at her conditions and frowned deeper.

Afflictions: 6 broken ribs, dislocated right leg, hairline fracture in her right arm, punctured lung, bruised wind pipe, puncture wounds in various places, slash marks and deep gashes, most serious on the left side of her abdomen. Small traces of poison in her blood.

Breathing Condition: Unstable, laboured in short gasps.

Heart Rate: 80 beats per minute.

Condition: Critical

The Hokage sighed and set the clipboard down, looking up at the doctors who had finished with their work and were now looking at him. He looked at the girl. Several layers of bandages covered her entire body. An air mask was placed over her mouth and nose to help her breath, and a heart rate monitor sat next to her bed. Various wires were inserted into her arms, injecting healing liquids and pain killers, along with some sleep medicine and water to keep her hydrated. The Hokage looked back at the doctors.

"Will she live?" the head doctor looked at him warily.

"We did all we could sir. It up to her now. She must fight for her life." he said grimly. The Hokage nodded and thanked them, leaving the room. After he had closed the door, he sighed and closed his eyes. Opening them, he made a decision and headed for the Hokage library. She seemed familiar, and he would find out why.

Later On, 6:13 am

The Hokage sighed and slammed the book closed. Nothing, once again. This was the sixth book he had been through, and still nothing on that girl. He placed the book on the pile beside him and went to look through the shelves again. He walked down each isle, hoping something would show up. Soon, he was at the back with the oldest scripts. He walked slowly. These may have been old, but someone had put some of the newest back there. Some about the fourth. He sighed and took out one on the fourth's history, right down to when he married, had kids, and then died. It was like an autobiography. The Hokage sat back down at his table and flipped to the table on contents. He looked at the page number for the fourths children and flipped to it, scanning the page until he came to an interesting paragraph about a theory.

Some believed that the fourth Hokage had more than just a son. Some believed he had a daughter as well. Though no evidence showed to support this theory, some citizens claim to have seen him walking towards the village gates late one night, holding a bundle in his arms. He disappeared at the village gates, and 2 ANBU were sent after him. They followed him to the village of sand, where he left the bundle on a door step and rang the bell hesitantly, before disappearing, heading back to the village. When interviewed, these ANBU had claimed to her baby wailings coming from the bundle of fabric. Baby girl wailings. The ANBU also believe that 'her' father cast a jutsu, so that she would remember everything. Her mother, her father, and her baby brother, born only 1 month after 'her'. They also claim to believe, that he gave her visions of the future. Of the Kyuubi attack on Konoha, only an hour away, and promised to send her a gift. What gift, we are not sure, but ninja still alive form the Kyuubi attack claim to have seen half of its soul, flooding into the night towards Suna. Nothing is said to support this, but I believe it was important enough to record.

The Hokage's eyes widened. So, she really was the fourth's daughter. And she had been raised in Suna with all of her memories of her family, and a 'gift' her father had sent before he died. The Hokage smiled weakly, closing the book and exiting. He had one task left before he returned home. And it included seeing that girl again. He hoped she was awake.

Hospital

The Hokage entered again, though not blinded because the lights were dimmed according to the time. The secretary lady was asleep at her desk, so he escorted himself to the girl's room. Once inside, he sat on the chair next to her bed, careful not to bump any of the machines keeping her alive. He looked at her face, only to notice two deep blue eyes staring at him, deep and endless as oceans. (AN ok, I know I shouldn't interrupt, but to clear up those perverts, he doesn't like her like that. He respects her and thinks of her as a granddaughter, like he thinks of Naruto.) He blinked, then smiled at her.

"Hello there." no answer. The Hokage sighed. "I'm not going to hurt you. You're safe in Konoha. I am the third Hokage, and I believe you have some relation to a boy I know. His name is Naruto." the blue eyes widened, becoming unnaturally large in her gaunt, pale face. She nodded and spoke, raspy from lack of water.

"Y-Yes. I know him H-He's my brother." the Hokage smiled gently and nodded. Apparently she was still weak because her eyes began to close again. He shook her gently, wanting to keep her awake until he asked his question. She looked at him through wary, half lidded eyes.

"I would like you to answer a question for me, young lady." she nodded slowly, barely staying awake. "What is your name?"

"M-My name i-is A-Asanagi..." she said gently, ending it while drifting back into sleep. He smiled and nodded, getting up and walking to the clipboard. He took and pen and scribbled out the stars, replacing them with her name. Then, after a second thought, replaced another writing on the list.

Asanagi Uzumaki

Condition: Stable.

(Normally I would end here, but because you are all great, I will go on and make it extra long)

Next Day, 8:30 am, With Team 7, minus Kakashi

It was a beautiful day to train. At least in Naruto's eyes it was. He was on his way to meet his teammates on the red bridge, their meeting spot. He smiled widely, putting his hands behind his head, ocean blue eyes looking contentedly at the clear blue sky. As Naruto came within sight of the bridge, he waved to his two teammates, Sasuke and Sakura. Sakura waved back, yelling his name, and Sasuke didn't even bother looking his way. Naruto growled. Sasuke always acted like this. Like he was better than everyone else. It really got on Naruto's nerves and ruined his day. As he stepped onto the bridge, he said hello to Sakura, glared at Sasuke, then turned and leaned on the railing on the bridge, looking down and the crystal clear water. He had a feeling something was gonna happen today, he just didn't know what. He sighed, turning his head once again towards the sky, and started talking to Kyuubi.

'Hey fox.' Naruto thought, waiting for an answer. Kyuubi growled, awoken from his nap.

'What do you want brat? I was sleeping.' Naruto smirked.

'I didn't know demons slept.' this time, Kyuubi ignored him. Naruto sighed. 'Hey, Kyuubi, I need to ask you something.' Naruto was inside his mind, standing in front of the massive cage that held Kyuubi inside of him, a paper slip with the kanji for 'Seal' holding the cage closed. Water dripped everywhere, up to Naruto's ankles. The ceiling lights giving off an eerie, yellow-green light. The Kyuubi's huge form appeared behind the cave, staring at Naruto through blood red eyes.

'What is it brat? I need sleep too.'

'Something is going to happen soon, I know it, but I don't know what it will be. Do you know?' Kyuubi scoffed.

'How the hell should I know? I can't see the future. Now go away, I'm tired and now thanks to you, angry.' Kyuubi said sternly, returning Naruto to the real world. Naruto frowned. Something was up, but Naruto dismissed it. Maybe his gut feeling was wrong and he just ate something bad...

"Naruto Uzumaki of Team 7, the Hokage has asked that you come with me." and maybe he was actually right and possibly in deep trouble. A jonin unknown to him had just appeared in front of him and given him the message. Naruto looked at him and nodded, following the jonin to the hospital where the third met them outside. The Hokage smiled warmly at Naruto as he waved to the man who had been like his grandfather. Naruto ran the rest of the way, standing in front of the man.

"Hey there old man! What is it you wanted to see me about?" Naruto asked, curiosity erasing every other emotion form his face. The Hokage's smile lessened but held up.

"I have some important information for you Naruto. Come with me, I will explain on the way." he said, walking inside the hospital. Naruto cocked his head but followed anyways, the jonin gone. The third led Naruto past the reception desk and down the hall, leading to a flight of stairs.

"Naruto, what I am about to tell you, is for your ears only, alright?" the third asked seriously, turning on the boy, who only nodded vigorously. The third smiled again and patted him on the head and resumed walking up the stairs. "I read in a book in my library about the past of your parents. More importantly, your father."

"My father?" the third nodded and sighed, stopping again and turning to Naruto.

"Yes, your father. I didn't want to have to tell you this so soon, not until you were ready, but to make sure you understand what the next part is about, you must know. Please, try not to hold it against me." he said warily. Naruto slowly nodded, not liking where this was heading. The third sighed (AN: they sigh a lot, so deal) and crouched down to Naruto's level.

"You know that the fourth sealed the Kyuubi in a baby that had just had its umbilical cord cut, yes?" Naruto nodded.

"That baby was his son." Naruto tensed.

"Naruto...that baby is you." Naruto stared at him, blue eyes wide. His father was the fourth Hokage? And he had sealed the Kyuubi inside of him?

'Well that explains why everyone hated me so much. Why didn't he tell me before? I guess he thought I wasn't ready. Fair enough, this is a really big shock for me. I won't hold it against him though.' Naruto thought. He shook his head and smiled lightly at the Hokage.

"Thanks for telling me old man!" the Hokage gave a relived sigh. Now came the other part.

"Now that you know that, there comes the part at hand. The reason I called you here." he said, walking up the stairs again. Naruto followed. "You see, I read a book about the fourth's...your fathers, past. It stated a theory that he had had more than one child. The theory was that he had given the other away, and left it on a doorstep in Suna. That child was raised there, and, by some chance, made it back here, to Konoha, though in a bad state." he said, opening Room 301's door. Naruto stepped inside and looked at the body laying under the sheets, covered in bandages, with some machines still attached to her. Her breathing seemed even, like she was asleep. She seemed familiar, like a person from a dream he had long ago. The Hokage looked from him to the girl. "Naruto, I would like you to go look at the clipboard at the end of her bed." Naruto looked at him but did anyways. He picked up the hanging clipboard and read the name. His heart froze.

"Please Naruto, say her name aloud so I may here." Naruto swallowed, his throat suddenly tight and dry. He swallowed again, this time swallowing the lump in his throat.

"A-Asanagi U-U-Uzuma...ki." Naruto rasped, still not believing that the beaten, bandaged form on the bed was his sister. Suddenly, as though released from a spell, Asanagi opened her eyes, staring straight at Naruto, who could only stare back. Her eyes were the same as his. A deep, ocean blue that could capture anybody in them if they looked deep enough. Emotions were close too. Curiosity, happiness, with an underline of pain and suffering. She smiled largely, looking at Naruto.

"N-Naruto. I've waited so long to see you again. I came all the way from Suna, just so I could be with my little brother." Naruto stared a little longer, then smiled the biggest smile he could muster.

"Hey, I'm only younger than you by one month you know." and with that remark, he walked over to her and hugged her close, cherishing her as the only family he now had left. She hugged him back, as hard as she could in her still weakened state. The Hokage smiled at the reunion, then remembered something.

"Oh yes Naruto, I have 2 more things to tell you." Naruto looked at him, ready.

"The first being that she has half of the Kyuubi's soul sealed in her." Naruto's eyes widened, then went back to normal as he nodded. "And the second, is that she will be on your team now, the fifth member of team 7. I think it only fair. We wouldn't want you to be away from each other, not when you have so much catching up to do. I will tell Kakashi to give you and your team the day off so Asanagi has one more day to recuperate, then she can go with you all on missions. She is a trained ninja, so she will not need the basics." Naruto nodded, smiling broadly again. He hoped Asanagi would be out of the hospital soon so that they could go on missions. Naruto hugged here again and got up.

"I'm gonna go tell my team they have the day off since Kakashi will be late anyways." the Hokage nodded and watched the boy leave the room. He chuckled lightly and Asanagi smiled. She couldn't wait as well.

With Team 7

Naruto ran up to the bridge, panting as he stopped in front of his two teammates who looked at him with curiosity and a look that said 'God-you-an-idiot-but-I-can-tell-you-have-something-to-say-so-say-it-already.'. When Naruto had caught his breath, he looked up, beaming more broadly than ever.

"Sorry about that guys. The Hokage wanted to see me about something important." Sakura nodded, then looked at him again as he spoke. "Oh, and the Hokage says we get the day off." Sakura gasped and jumped up and down. Sasuke narrowed his eyes.

"What's the catch?" Naruto looked at him, smirking.

"Nothing. He's just giving one more day for our new teammate to recuperate in the hospital." Sasuke smirked.

"I'd like to see this new teammate." Naruto only nodded and smiled.

"Ok! You can come to Sakura-Chan!" Sakura nodded.

"I'd like that Naruto!"

'Especially if Sasuke-kun is going!! Cha!!' Sakura ignored her inner, following Naruto as he set off at a run towards the hospital. Once at the doors, he waited for his teammates before leading them inside, down the hall, up the stairs, and into Room 301. As Naruto opened the door, Asanagi's eyes shot over to the door, looking at them each in turn as they entered. First Sasuke, then Sakura, then lastly Naruto.

"Asanagi-Chan, this is Sasuke-teme and Sakura-Chan." Naruto introduced each of his teammates, pointing to each in turn. Sakura bowed and Sasuke nodded his head. Asanagi smiled.

"It's nice to meet you all. I'm Asanagi, and I guess I'll be your new teammate." she said, grinning at them. Even with the bandages covering most of her face except for her nose, eyes, and mouth, you could tell she was excited. Surprisingly, Sasuke spoke first.

"What, no last name?" Asanagi frowned and looked at Naruto, who nodded, smiling. Asanagi smiled back and turned to Sasuke and Sakura.

"Well, if you must know, my full name is Asanagi Uzumaki." she spoke proudly. This even got a surprised expression out of Sasuke. Naruto had a sister? Weird. Then, surprising his teammates, Sasuke spoke again.

"Well Asanagi, you are either blind, or very good at controlling you emotions." Asanagi cocked her head.

"Oh, why would you say that?"

"Because your not swooning over me as another fan girl." when Sasuke finished, there was a long silence. Asanagi blinked once, twice, then burst out laughing. Sasuke growled. "What's so funny?" Asanagi breathed deeply, slightly calming herself down, but still laughing.

"I-I'm sorry, but me, swooning over you? Ha! I barely know you! I've only just met you! All I know is your name and the fact that your teammates are Naruto here, Sakura, and some guy named Kakashi. I wouldn't swoon over you! I'm not the type of shallow girl who swoons over guy I've only just seen. That's for sluts! But I do hope we can get to be better friends!" she spoke loudly, smiling her heart out. Sasuke blinked, then smirked. She wasn't so bad after all.

'At least she's not another fan girl. She seems ok even.' Sakura, on the other hand, was silently fuming over what Asanagi had just said.

'How dare she say that swooning over a guy at first sight is for sluts! I am no slut, but the rest of Sasuke's fan girls are. She will defiantly pay.'

'Cha right that bitch will!!' Inner Sakura boomed, twice as mad as Sakura. Asanagi could sense the slight tension in the air, and the anger coming from Sakura. She looked concerned.

"Are you alright, Sakura-san?" she asked, slightly concerned. Sakura raised her head, putting on her best fake smile but still having to grind out the words from between her teeth.

"Oh, it's alright. I'm fine." she spoke icily through gritted teeth. Asanagi pulled back a little bit, wondering if she had offended her. She frowned, thinking to herself. After awhile, she just shrugged and looked at the three.

"Well, I'm almost ready to get out of here. Just a bit more healing and I can leave with you guys. You don't have to, but you can wait for me if you want. My last healing session is in about 4 minutes." Naruto and Sasuke nodded. Sakura only glared and followed them out of the room.

'We will get her. Inner, start formulating a plan.'

'Cha!!' No one noticed, but a malicious smile had formed on Sakura's mouth.

Hope you like it! Remember to review and read author notes, they are important. I'm almost done my mid-terms! Yay! No Flames or I'll stop writing all together! Or do something really nasty! Beware!
