I'm back to writing stories after a long time of only writing essays. I am busy with classes, but as I am no longer taking any English classes, I decided to start writing stories again to keep up my writing. I have never written a romance story and don't really have much experience, so sorry if it isn't very realistic.
I know a lot of people have a problem with Sasuke being a girl, but I have a hard time trying to picture Sasuke as a guy in a relationship with Naruto. Not because I have anything against a gay relationship, just simply because I am a girl and it is easier for me to write a girl in a relationship than two guys. Besides, I would probably just end up insulting any gay people because of how badly I would write a yaoi relationship.
If Sasuke seems out of character, then just try to remember that I have made him a girl and girls will react very differently to the same emotions as a guy. If you don't like it, just don't read this. However, I will do my best to stay true to the root of each person's character.
This chapter is just to test out the idea I had. Let me know if it is worth continuing.
So … long rant over.
Disclaimer: I don't own any Naruto characters or names. I just use them for inspiration.
Rating: T mostly for some blood in the battle sequences and maybe a little kissing and touching, but really I am not going to go any further than that.
Summary: Sasuke was always meant to be a healer, but when her family is brutally murdered, she defies the healers code to do no harm. When her new guardian pulls a few strings, she is allowed to take the test to become a part of the Royal Soldiers, which would give her access to all the information she needs to track down her family's murderer. She will not let anything or anyone get in her way. Unfortunately for Naruto, to pass her test, Sasuke has to defeat him in battle. During the heat of the match, sparks fly between Naruto and Sasuke.

White is not always a holy color.
It represents the absence of color, of light, of love.
It represents loneliness and emptiness.
It represents a lack of information, a blank page.
White is Sasuke's color.
Sasuke's first memory of white was the beautiful flowing robes of her mother. At the time, she did not understand all the implications of wearing that ornate gown. All she knew was that one day she would be just like her mom as expected of her.
Itachi was the firstborn and he was expected to be a great warrior just like his father. Their mom had no say in his life, so when Sasuke was born, her mother gushed at the chance to have her own little protégé. Sasuke's father had no need for a girl and so let her mother do as she pleased.
Itachi was trained and disciplined. Sasuke was nurtured and encouraged. Both thrived in their own fields. However, Sasuke could never completely ignore the lack of recognition from her father and brother, so she had her mother's bodyguard, Kakashi, teach her fighting techniques in addition to her healers training.
Sasuke was determined to rank among the esteemed members of the Uchiha family. Most healers rarely got anything better than a position at a village clinic, but an elite few were assigned to be administrators and researchers in the Royal Institution of Holy Affairs. Because his mother never achieved this honor, Sasuke was determined to get it for her and prove just how great she was.
The Uchiha clan had one main principle: be great. It didn't matter how or in what, but you had to be better than anyone else in the field. Uchiha's held top positions in the court, the army, the church, the universities, the business world, and the healers.
When they all died, they left a lot of holes in the country.
The country of Konoha was a vast and powerful land ruled by the Royal Hokage Family. The monarchy remained powerful and respected because the throne was not passed directly through the generations. Being the firstborn of the current ruler did not guarantee anyone the crown.
Once a ruler was chosen either any of his children or any of his nieces or nephews were eligible for the crown. Upon the fiftieth birthday of the reigning king or queen, the court would administer a test to all the eligible family members from 15 to 30 and then choose the most qualified participant.
However, the system was far from perfect, as most governments tend to be. Nieces and nephews rarely won because of the advantages and influence of the sons and daughters. So, the youngest son of the youngest sister of the ruling king had little hope of ever receiving the crown.
Naruto Uzumaki was too thick headed to rely on hope to get what he wanted. He knew that hope could do nothing without hard work and determination. Despite his constant cries of "Believe it!" he knew good things did not happen without any effort.
Kushina, Naruto's mother, had always told him that he was special not because he was a part of the royal family but despite being a member of the royal family. He enjoyed playing pranks and getting in trouble to the delight of his mother, who was raised in an extremely strict family. Her one act of rebellion was love.
Kushina chose to marry for love rather than exceptional breeding qualities to produce exceptional children who could win the competition for the crown. She had such a weak connection to the crown that she had no aspirations of ruling. No one cared who she married or why because she had not even made it past the prerequisites of the test.
Naruto never thought of his mom as a failure, but he was always enchanted by the idea of becoming king. He had no idea what the test was or how to prepare for it, but that never stopped him from swinging a stick around and claiming to be besting all the other candidates. Of course, then his father had to warn him about the dangers of violence and train him to fight efficiently.
The man who became Kushina's wife and Naruto's father was a brave fighter in the Royal Soldiers, but a simple country man at heart. After he married Kushina, they returned to his hometown far in the countryside on the border of Konoha where they could raise honest and carefree children.
After seven years of carefree living, Naruto learned just how fragile life could be.
Black is not always a morbid color.
It represents the absorption of colors, of light, of life.
It represents stillness and warmness.
It represents a wealth of information, a filled page.
Black is Naruto's color.
