Disclaimer: *sarcasm* of course i own it. kishimoto just draws it for me...yeah, right!...

Konnichiwa. My name is Kasumi Uzumaki-Namikaze-Uchiha I'm 20 years old, 145 lbs., 5'9 with long purified white hair (that's naturally blonde) and whisker marks. I'm married to Sasuke Uchiha; identical twin to Naruto Uzumaki, mother of four, Priestess for hire to the shinobi world, and amekage to well Amegakure, share hokage position with naruto and this is my story…let me start from the beginning. It all started some years ago when I was looking for my twin brother Naruto Uzumaki….Let's start from there…

"Well this is the area I heard them coming to…I wonder where he is…." I murmured to myself as I stopped in front of the shrine I had walked up to. A long morning of searching for him wound me up into the nearby woods along Tanzaku town. "What do you mean we have to leave!? The festival's tomorrow and I want to stay in town for it dattebayo!" As I hear the voice drift toward me I hear another shortly follow it. "Exactly that brat! We're going back to the village and that's final!" As I turn around to see the travelers who dare assault my senses while I'm on a search mission, what I see makes my brain scream in victory, my heart shatter with joy and most of my thinking shut down. 'Arigatou Kami-sama that didn't so long. Only three months!'

There in front of me is Naruto Uzumaki and Jiraiya-sensei walking my way. I pray my thanks to Kami-sama as I run toward my only living family and hug the life out of him for all I'm worth. "I finally get to see you after all these years naruto. How are you? How have you been? Has Jiraiya been treating you well?" I ask as I release him from the aforementioned death grip. But apparently, he was confused by the strange unknown white-haired, blue-eyed, whisker marks-on-her-cheeks stranger in priestess garb. "Who are you and how do you know my name?" he asked with guarded suspicion. At that moment I realized he didn't know who I was to him. So, I explained: "MY name is Kasumi Uzumaki, and I'm your sister naruto-chan ttebane." By then he had a look of disbelief on his face. "I have no sister. Now tell me; who the HELL you are ttebayo!" he spat as he took a defensive stance.

At this, I started begging and crying "Naruto, please, believe me I really am your sister. You've never met me but I am truly your sister!" as he looked at me my pride hurt, and crying, his gaze softened. "Look Kasumi-san, I'm sorry but you have the wrong person…I don't have a-" "Naruto! How dare you reject the only family that lives, breathes and thank the heavens, stands in front of you?" Naruto and I turned around to see Jiraiya yelling at him. "What the fuck are you talking about Pervy Sage?! I don't have any family!" At this Jiraiya looked back in time to see me flinch and look even more dejected and walked up to me and put his hand on my shoulder. "I'm sorry no one told you kasumi, that naruto doesn't know about you." I turned away from naruto and sobbed. "It's okay sensei, but it still hurts to hear it from him." Naruto looking more confused more than he probably has, turned to face Jiraiya completely. "What the HELL are you talking about sensei?! How come I've never heard of this so-called sister?"

By this time, I was looking at Jiraiya. I nodded and he said, "You've never heard of her because it was not a good idea given your current position at the time. You would have ended blaming her for not being there for you or even rejecting her as family." At this naruto looked at the ground. "Onegai ttebayo," he said with new found interest. "Tell me what's going on, aneki." As those words reached me, I nodded, smiled, and started the story. "Well let's start at the beginning, naruto." He nodded approval and I continued. "Well, sixteen years ago, our mother-" "Wait! Kasumi-chan are you sure he's ready for this now? He might react to this badly and then what could we do? We don't want them to look dismal of his feelings, or that they didn't care about you two." I gave him a look of understanding and rough sympathy.

"I am telling him the TRUTH Jiraiya. Maybe if we're honest and speak the feelings and ideas of the truth and our parents PROPERLY he won't do that." I turned back to naruto, tied him to a tree trunk and started the story. "Well, sixteen years ago, our mother Kushina Uzumaki and our father Minato Namikaze, the fourth hokage gave their lives to save us from the kyuubi that had been extracted from our mother's sealed possession shortly after our birth. As we were on the sealing alter, the kyuubi tried to kill us by running us through with his claws after tou-chan had already given you half of the kyuubi's chakra but tou-chan and kaa-chan got in his way and were run though instead. So when they were run through, they were able to hold him in place and seal the rest of him inside me. Giving me the yin chakra and you the yang hoping we could later on control that power later on in life.

However, instead of living and growing up together, I was taken by Jiraiya-sensei to live and be trained by a priestess in the land of snow while you stayed behind in konoha. Up until recently I was in training to tame the yang or the darkest of kyuubi's chakra. However, as you see I've finished enough of my training to find you and return to the village." When I finished my story he was still silent. "I know the gaps in the story that only mom and dad can tell can't be told from me, but we can try to uncover them little by little together as a family now. But, later I will fill you in on the details that I've managed to piece together after I talk to Tsunade-sensei." He merely nodded his yes, still getting over the shock of what he had been told so, I decided to use that time for us to get to know each other (in a matter of speaking) by way of jutsu.

'Priestess style: dual memory review jutsu!' I called the jutsu forth with half a seal and read through his mind to see his memories in an instant as he saw mine. 'Hn. Your life was just like mine ttebane.' I thought to myself as the jutsu ended. Amazingly as if in response he said, "Yea. It's been rough not having you around nee-chan, and I still can't believe it but I'm just glad I'm not alone anymore." Not knowing what to think I just sat there thinking it over. 'Can he read my mind or something?' 'I guess I can; us being twins and all' slightly shocked but happy I smiled, got up and walked over to him. "Thank you for being so understanding about this." I crouched down to untie the ropes and helped him up and as soon as I untie the ropes he gives me a sudden hug and I end up on his lap as he knocks me off of his feet. "Don't worry about it ttebayo."

'we even have similar verbal tics' at that I looked at him with bitter sweet happiness. 'I inherited mom's version of it.''Mom's?' 'Yeah from what I was told, mom said dattebane too. Just like me.' "Well well, looks like someone's glad he met his sister instead of writing her off as a stranger!" as I got up I turned around to face Jiraiya who was just getting back from his walk he had taken while naruto and I were talking. "Whatever pervy-sage." We say together. When night fell we stayed at the temple to rest there for the night and it passed uneventful. In the morning we woke up and made our way into tanzaku town for breakfast and the hot springs at my insistence. Afterwards we started on the road towards konoha. After a while of walking in 'silence' jiraiya spoke up "You two are awfully quiet today. I thought you'd be louder naruto; and you too kasumi." He expressed with hints of concern.

But naruto and I just looked at each other and laughed. "It's nothing pervy-sage." Naruto assured him. "Yeah, we've just been talking using a little twin telepathy. It's actually pretty cool." At that he looked a little amused as if the telepathy thing wasn't a surprise given our nature. "Kasu-nee was talking about how she wanted to try some of the food around the village." At that I nodded my yes to jiraiya's questioning look. "Actually I wanted to try some of Ichiraku's shio ramen since I've heard so much about it from people who've been to the village." At that naruto looked at me eyes lit excitement. "Really?! I love ramen too. That's crazy weird!" I laughed a little. "Well, how about I treat you when we get there? I'll let you eat as much as you like!" he hugged he saying, "Thank you so much Kasumi nee-chan!" jiraiya looked at me like I was crazy. "Are you sure? The kid can eat ten bowls in one setting!"

I just gave him a controlled blank look to hide my annoyance. "For one, I can eat as many as ten in one setting myself, two, look out for the hole you're about to walk into and three, I have more than 100,000,000 ryo at my disposal. It's what happens when you haven't spent a penny in your life; so it's perfectly fine to treat him ttebane." He looked dumbfounded for a second before tripping up on the aforementioned hole then looked at me a little embarrassed laced with annoyance. "I wish you'd treat me with more respect, kasumi." I bowed in apology. "Gomenna, pervy-sage, for getting carried away. And naruto, I'll treat you when we get home, but I can't treat you every day okay?" jiraiya nodded in acceptance of my apology. "Yeah, I understand kasu-nee and I'm really grateful ttebayo." Naruto said smiling.

After that conversation we didn't talk for the rest of the afternoon. Instead, we just walked until we came up on a tea house about a day's travel from the village. as we walked In the tea house, the air greeted me tasting of tea leaves and dango sauce. We sat at the table close to the door and called the attention of the kind baa-chan who ran the shop and placed our order: two orders of sakura-vanilla dumplings with sakura sauce, and traditional dango and three green teas. After she brought our food naruto took a traditional dango and a cup of tea. "The tea here is lightly sweet and the sauce on the dango is very sweet, but has a good salt balance." He mumbled around the food. Picking up the sakura dango skewer sticks, I tried the first one and deemed it perfect. Next, the tea and that I thought, was better than I could ever make it. "Wow, this is crazy good. Best I've had yet ttebane!"

naruto nodded saying, "Yeah, this shop is my favorite." As we were finishing off the rest of the dango and tea, jiraiya spoke up to suggest our leave. "Well were almost there but resting isn't going to get us closer. Let's leave the money on the table and be on our way." While naruto mumbled reluctant agreement, I looked to the side and saw the noticeably frail baa-chan, walking towards a table to clean it, an unseen to her skewer on the floor. "Wait, I'm going to help her. She's in no condition to be left without me helping her first ttebane." As I finished speaking, she slipped on the skewer. Naruto moved to help but I was faster so thankfully I caught her before she fell. "Here, I'm a priestess let me help you baa-chan." I stood her up and turned her around, taking an herbal pill out from the pocket in my sleeve.

"Here, take this while I take care of your back." She nodded and I continued my work, bringing my medical chakra to my fingertips I worked my way down her spine repairing the years of fracture and strain caused by what seemed like war. As I finished up my work I was relieved to see the scowl of pain fading from her face. A few seconds pass and the scowl with the pain is gone. "There, your back should be like it was when you were sixteen…oh, and the money is on the table ttebane."

Though slightly surprised naruto and jiraiya looked at me with a smile and we left the tea shop. After finding camp, I made my way to a nearby stream and stood on the water. 'priestess mixed sage art: Diamond and Chakra Metal Recall!' I called the jutsu with a half seal and watched as the stream water split the nearby boulders and gathered the hidden diamonds and chakra metal from its pieces. I concentrated harder and the diamonds and metal formed a curved bow while spider silks gathered and formed the drawback string. When the bow and jutsu were finished i heard naruto. 'Wow….is that seriously a working bow?' I smiled at that and laughed a little. 'Yeah, it is. Come here and I'll show you.' Naruto stepped from behind the tree where he was hiding. "Ne, kasu-nee, why did you go off alone to make this?" I looked back at him and blinked slowly in slight surprise at the suspicion that laced his voice.

"Because naru, I'm used to being on my own. I'm sorry. Next time I'll take you with me so we can get supplies together while we're down here 'kay?" "Sure but, kasumi, I have a question that's been bugging me. How come you-" "Don't have blonde or red hair like mom or dad?" I finished for him and he nodded slowly. "Yeah, jiraiya-sensei just told me about mom before I left to find you." I smiled and laughed a little at that. "Well, my hair is white because during my training I purified myself so I could slay demons and help spirits. During my training, my hair turned white from the purification training. It's usually white but gradually turns black when I'm exposed to evil. But it's naturally blonde just like yours and dads. I keep it white because it shows how powerful I am." I explained as I let my hair turn it natural Namikaze blonde and naruto who watched me do so look on in amazement.

"Would you prefer it blonde naruto?" His suspicion was swept away by understanding. "No that's fine. I was just curious." "Well how about this: when I get to the village I will. And from then on, if I stay in the village, it will only be white when I'm on a mission." He nodded agreement and turned to walk towards camp. "Sure. That's not a bad idea. Now, let's get some sleep. We get back to the village tomorrow." When we got back to camp we went straight for our respective sleeping bags. 'Goodnight kasu-nee' –cue smile- 'goodnight naru' and with that we both fell out.
