Now here's a little story I talked with a fellow author about writing. Lovesrainscent spoke on this and we both thought it could be a good story. Hopefully you, the readers will like it as well. On behalf of Loverainscent, Knightewolfe Productions present what could possibly be the first Naruto UzumakixYukie Fujikaze (Koyuki Kazahana) pairing fic.

Promises in Snow and Ice.
Twenty-five year old actress Yukie Fujikaze climbed the steps to her private on-set trailer and slammed the door. The message she'd just received by courier from the Land of Spring had ruined her good mood. Kicking off her shoes, the most famous actress in the land entered her bedroom and threw herself on to the bed with a loud snort of annoyance. A minute or so later, Yukie heard the door to her trailer open and knew that her present manager had come looking for her.
"What do you want, Misato? Whatever it is I'm not in the mood for it!", snapped the actress as she rolled over and faced the door.
"Milady, I do not know why you are so resistant. You know the council is not going to rest until you're either married or pregnant with your heir. You've already turned down several offers of marriage from young men of suitable rank much to the council's consternation. Princess if you keep doing this, next time you are home for your requisite six month period to rule your land, the council will force you into a marriage of convenience for their prestige.", replied the young woman demurely.
"Dammit, I know that but those old farts need to learn that I'm not ready to settle down, get married, and have children yet. Can't they just leave me alone on that one subject?", cried the on-screen goddess.
Her manager just shook her head. She knew that until they were satisfied the council in the Land of Spring was going to keep pushing that agenda. The old men and women wanted to prove to the five nations that in the seven years since their princess had returned and overthrown the brutal dictatorship of her uncle, the country formerly known as 'The Land of Snow' was back on its feet and ready to be considered an equal trading partner.
Yukie sighed and gazed out the tinted window of the trailer. Was she not allowed to make her own choices now? For you see the actress known for her roles in the 'Princess Gale' series of movies, was in reality: Princess Koyuki Kazahana; present ruler of the former 'Land of Snow '.
Remembering those tumultuous times when Kakashi and his genin team defeated her uncle Doto and his Snow shinobi, Yukie thought back to the words of one young ninja whose sunny personality and 'never give up' actions turned her life around and made her accept her destiny as the Land of Snow's beloved princess.
"I wonder how the little gaki is doing now. Last time I saw him was when I stopped in Konoha on a promotional trip two years ago. Back then I was told that he as recovering from one battle or another. At least I was able to bring a little happiness into his life during the caravan's stopover.", thought Yukie as she made preparations to return to the set.
Yukie was walking towards the entrance to her trailer when her murky memories cleared up and she remembered what she'd been told all those years ago. Wondering why at a trying time like this she would remember those asinine words, Yukie exited her trailer and headed back to where she left the poor courier at the mercies of her long-time director and producer.
Returning to her reserved canvas chair, Yukie glanced at the courier and the letter he held in nervous hands. Accepting the letter from her council, Yukie read it. As she did, the last parts of an idea that had been floating around in her mind coalesced into a solid plan. Nodding to herself, Yukie mentally firmed up every facet of her plan.
"Now if only the lone wildcard in the deck will act true to his nature," thought Yukie as she smirked to herself.
Yukie's manager and the courier felt a sudden chill in the air as the actress gave the pair an innocent look. It was a look that Misato knew extremely well, a look that promised a world of worry to her and the rest of Princess Koyuki's ladies-in-waiting and promised to give the council for the Land of Spring large amounts of annoyance and confusion. Smirking in satisfaction at the boldness of her plan, Yukie knew she had a few months left before she could put her plan into action. That was good; it gave her time to perfect everything and gather some supplies and put the wheels of her plan in motion.
The council of the Land of Spring was about to learn a hard lesson.
Thus ends the start of a new Naruto story with a most unusual pairing. Or at least a pairing I haven't seen as of yet in the world of Naruto fanfics. Let me know what you think.
