A.N.: I decided since I am enjoying writing the 1st Naruto Fan Fiction in my group, that I would write another one based on the dreams I kept having while reading and watching the Manga & Anime. Which is actually where I got NaMay's first name from only in the dream she was completely different then NaMay Okami as you'll see in this one.
Disclaimer: I do NOT own Naruto or anything relating to the Naruto World.
It's been almost 13 years since Namay Sarutobi last stepped foot in Konoha. The Hidden Village of the Leaf, Once upon a time used to be a place where Namay lived a charmed life and she loved it dearly, with her being the daughter of Hiruzen Sarutobi the 3rd Hokage how could she not have such pride in her beloved Leaf. The Will of Fire used to glow strong in her veins, That was until she experienced one tragically unforgettable nightmare that would end up changing Namay into something a bit more darker and hateful in nature. Some of the villagers would even go as far as to say that she now harbored a hated for her old homeland, Which was not entirely untrue. For you see on that one fateful night almost 13 years ago, Namay lost everything that she held near and dear to her, All because of one man's blind ambitions. That very man has been what has driven Namay away from her home, her friends, and what little family she had left and what has been pushing her towards the edge of pure madness.
She has spent the last decade or so obsessively hunting down this man only for him to slip through her fingertips at the last moment. That brings about the reason why Namay Sarutobi has returned to the Hidden Leaf after so many years of abandonment. One of her contacts that she has made over the years has informed her that the man she has been searching for made contact with a few of the Konoha Ninjas and Namay felt she had no real choice but to investigate any lead she was lucky enough to get, even if that meant opening up a few heartbreaking chapters in her life that she would of rather keep forever sealed away.
Standing in the middle of the old Village her long violet streaked brunette hair flowed about her due to the breezy wind. Namay found herself gawking at the four faces of past leaders that made up the the Hokage Monument that took up most of the mountain side that overlooked all of Konoha. One of those faces in particular stood out the most to her for it was a face that she could never forget, no matter how long she has been away because she has looked into that handsome face from the moment she learned how to open up her deep sapphire blue eyes as a infant clear up until the day she decided to leave the village seeking out her own brand of justice. Staring up at her Father's Gigantic Rocky Profile, Namay knew where the best place to start searching for information would have to be. The only problem was that also meant she would have to reconnect with the family she left all so long ago.
Figuring she had no better options since every other leads she's checked turned out to be nothing more then wild-goose chases, Namay decided to sucked it up and do what she had to in order to find him. So after she took a deep breath of fresh air Namay headed in the direction of the Hokage Tower where fate was about to deal her another unbelievable hand.
"BELIEVE IT... OLD MAN, I SWEAR IT WAS A GIANT SNAKE...!"
Naruto Uzumaki shouted in his excitement at the old Hokage with his arms stretched out as far as they would go trying to show how big the serpent in which he spoke about was, as he tried to explain to Hiruzen Sarutobi the details of what happened out in the Forest of Death early that afternoon during the 2ed round of the now infamous Chunin exams.
Naruto did not stand alone before the Hokage. His entire team was there, Team 7 which also consisted of: Sakura Haruno, Sasuke Uchiha, and their Elite Team Leader: Kakashi Hatake.
"Naruto you knucklehead lower your voice when speaking to the Hokage... I apologize Sir, you know how he gets."
Kakashi let out a small forced laugh that even he didn't buy as being real, so it was no surprise to him when no one else bought it ether.
" Yes Kakashi, I do know how he can get firsthand and there is no need to apologize on his behalf because although what Naruto was saying was very loud, I sensed no disrespect in his words... If anything he seems to be struggling to form his thoughts together. So perhaps it would be best to have another member of Team 7 give the details of today's events."
The third clasped his fingers together placing his hands on the wooden table in front of him as he patiently watched the entire team before him with stern eyes awaiting their responses.
" HEY! WAIT A MINUTE OLD MAN... I WASN'T DONE TELLING MY PART OF THE STORY YET... COME ON YOU CAN'T JUST CUT ME OFF LIKE THAT... SHIT, RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF MY STORY TOO..."
Naruto was indeed cut off only it wasn't from the Hokage but rather by the door to the conference room they were all acquiring being slammed wide opened by an unfamiliar woman dressed mostly in dark colors, who also marched right in like she owned the place.
Namay's brain barely registered anyone else in the room, the only face who stood out to her at the moment was that of her father and so that is where she headed now, Slamming her hands down on the table in front of them Namay lean forward and looked him right in his old eyes before she started yelling almost as loud as Naruto has been this entire time:
" WHERE THE HELL IS HE AND DON'T GIVE ME ANY BULLSHIT ABOUT NOT KNOWING WHO I MEAN OLD MAN... WE BOTH KNOW WHO I'M AFTER AND WHY... NOW TELL ME, WHERE HAS THAT BASTARD BEEN HIDING?!"
Naruto who was pretty pissed off by this point having been interrupted not once but twice while he was trying to convey what he thought was very important information, just couldn't hold his tongue any longer for this woman was getting on his nerves:
" WHAT THE FUCK LADY... HOW DARE YOU COME IN HERE DEMANDING THINGS FROM THE OLD MAN, WHEN WE WERE HERE FIRST... JUST WHO THE HELL ARE YOU ANYWAYS?!"
" WAS I FUCKING TALKING TO YOU KID... MIND YOUR OWN GODDAMN BUSINESS... YOU CAN HAVE YOUR PRECIOUS HOKAGE BACK ONCE I'M DONE HERE!"
Digging her fingernails into the wooden table in front of her Namay turned around to face the little brat who had enough balls to call her out because not allot of people did nowadays and this little bastard would be lucky if she let him go without a bruise or two, for Namay was known to have attacked others for much less.
However what she wasn't expecting to see was another all to familiar masked face who even though she could not see his mouth she was pretty sure he had it hanging wide opened as he stared at her with his one visible eye.
"N-Namay... Is that really you?"
Kakashi somehow found his voice as he looked at a blast from his past hardly believing she was actually standing not two feet away from him. Sensing Naruto was about to say something stupid again, Kakashi quickly placed his hands over his mouth because he knew all about Namay's temper and Naruto was but a few words away from finding out the hard way like he had to all those years ago. Actually Kakashi was more surprised that she hadn't flat out attacked the smart-mouthed teenager instead of just arguing with him like she did.
Sakura although she was scared of this crazed woman standing before them, she to found her voice and worked up enough courage to ask: " Sensei, You know this woman? Who exactly is she and Who is this man she is looking for? Maybe we can help her, if we knew his name because clearly she believes him to be in our Village and from the looks of our Lord Hokage, he has seemed to have slipped into a state of shock."
The look Namay was giving the pink haired teenage girl was enough to make her physically shake before moving behind her love interest Sasuke Uchiha, Who up until this point has been standing there looking bored out of his skull which he was but now with the arrival of this mysterious woman he was finding this meeting somewhat more interesting.
" Yes I do know her from long ago Sakura... What's it been Namay 12, 13 years now, since you left? If I remember correctly you swore you would never step foot in Konoha again as long as that Snake Bastard was still alive... So it does beg the question why show your face around here now?"
Kakashi was having a hard time trying to control his emotions as he spoke to her and for once was glad he had most of his face covered over by his mask & headband, although not that it would really matter if she could see his expressions or not, with the abilities Namay possessed.
Hearing one of her oldest friend's voice has smoothed over Namay's rage for the time being which was a very good thing for everyone in that room with her.
" Humph, You mean when I left you Kakashi... Right, Like you really give a damn about me leaving the village or even about me quieting as a Leaf Kunoichi to go Rogue... You just didn't want me to leave You behind... If I remember currently you were one of the ones begging me to stay... You know what, It doesn't matter now... What's done is done and we can't change our pasts... No matter how much we may want too." she said that last part a bit lower, almost as if she was saying it to herself but Kakashi Hatake heard it as if she was standing right next to him due to his very advance senses and he knew exactly what she would of changed if given the chance.
Kakashi let go of his hold on Naruto and took a risky chance by moving closer to Namay knowing full well what she was capable of even before she lost her mind, now she was probably ten times more dangerous but he just didn't care he needed to be closer to her. He needed to touch her to be absolutely sure she was real and this was not one of the many dreams he has had about her since she left him all those years ago.
Kakashi now stood directly in front of Namay as he slowly reached his left hand up desperately wanting to nuzzle his palm against her cheek but deciding that was a bit to dangerous at the moment, so he settled for placing his hand on her shoulder. Namay didn't bother to remove it instead she said to him: " Now are you satisfied, That I am in fact real and not just another one of your dream Namays."
Hatake let out a small laugh at that because it had been so long he almost forgotten how it felt to have his every thought read by a single touch.
" Yes actually I am satisfied enough... What I don't get though is why Now? You have had years to come back and try to redeem what is left of your old life... Or... Are my suspicions correct and you are only here because you heard about the attack Orochimaru sprung on us during the Chunin exams?" The crazed look in her eyes at the mention of his name was enough for Kakashi to know his answer for sure and to take his hand off of her before she snapped his arm in half.
" Hold on here... So what you're saying is, That this is all about that Snake Bastard that attacked us in the Forest of Death... Geez Lady why didn't you say so earlier... That Prick is what we are in here for too." that came out of the mouth of Naruto who finally stopped his yelling.
" Oh and another thing if you are a Rogue Ninja... Then shouldn't you have some kind of bounty on your head? I was always told that the Ninjas who turned against the Village was to be Hunted Down and Killed... If that's the case, I gotta say Lady you have allot of balls for a girl."
Namay stared at this kid thinking to herself: Is he for real? Just a few minutes ago he was yelling at me at the top of his lungs and now he's complementing me... Who is this little punk anyways?
What she actually said out loud though was: " Well, It's nice to see you do have a lower volume on that mouth of yours Whiskers...You're right though Ninjas who turn against the Village are sentenced to Death... However I would not be consider one of those Ninjas, I never once done anything to try and take down Konoha... I simply up and left after..." Namay couldn't bring herself to say it, the pain she felt was still there and it still hurt her to talk about what happened on that horrible day.
" After What? Well come on Lady, You done want that far, Might as well fill us in on the rest... What happened, Did your husband leave ya or something to go join forces with that Bastard Orochimaru... Or..."
Namay's hands started to take on a light purplish glow as she listened to Naruto asking her questions she did not want to answer and before any of them had a chance to react Naruto Uzumaki suddenly flew up into the air crashing into the high ceiling of the conformance room where he remained suspended for some time, his voice cut entirely off from him as crashing pain seeped throughout his mind making his ears start to bleed.
" Namay... You let him down right this instant young lady... You may be a fully grown woman but you are now and forever will still be my little girl, No matter how long you decide to stay away and Konoha will always be your home... Don't you ever forget that Sweetheart."
Hiruzen Sarutobi slipped out of his shock about the time Kakashi came up to his daughter, The old Hokage simply played into his insanity state after that to listen into the conversation awaiting his perfect opportunity to join in and seeing how Naruto is now floating above him on the ceiling struggling against who knows what kind of hellish mental torment, He had no choice but to intervene.
Sarutobi knew she would not listen to him, his power of a father over her died the day she left and so now he had only one option left to throw her off balance long enough to save Naruto.
Coming around his wooden table the old Hokage came up behind Namay pulling her into his arms and he just held onto her as tightly as he could but not in a threatening manner. He was simply hugging his only daughter that he has not seen in the last at least 12 years, even if Naruto Uzumaki didn't have his life on the line as he does right now, Hiruzen would of done this at some point anyways because there was no way he was letting her go this time without showing her that she was very much so, still loved by him.
