All was well in the ninja village, the Village Hidden in the Leaves, or the Leaf Village for short. Today they were celebrating the defeat of the Nine Tailed Fox, or Kyuubi and the sacrifice of the Forth Hokage. It has been six years since the attack of the demon fox and the village finally was standing back on its feet. While they had lost many ninjas in the attack and the Third Ninja War before that, the Leaf Village was back to approximately 85% of its original ninja force and more and more young ninjas were graduating from the academy each passing year. In a few short years they would be at back to the 100% of their ninja force.

While it was the Fall of the Fox Celebration, it was also the sixth birthday of the small redhead girl. Narumi Uzumaki was born on the day the Demon Fox attack and thus treated as the demon itself. She was scorned, ignored and rarely beaten, but that was because the ANBU, the special elite ninja of the village, usually stopped it from happening.

Narumi Uzumaki stood 3'4'', had bright cerulean blue eyes with a slight violet tint and long crimson red hair. The young child had six whisker-like marks, three on each of her chubby cheeks. The aspiring ninja was dressed in a white t-shirt, with a red spiral on the front and navy blue shorts with black ninja sandals.

Currently Uzumaki was walking away from the festivities, away from the happy families and laughing children, away from the glares and snide remarks, away from the constant reminders of her loneliness.

On the road away from the celebrating townspeople the young Uzumaki ran into a drunk villager, literally ran into. She looked up at the person she had bumped into about utterly an apology but stopped when she saw him stare at her with eyes filled with lust and hate. Slowly she started to back away, but the person with those eyes was a ninja, so even though drunk he could move faster than she could. He grabbed her upper arm and pulled her into his chest.

"My, my, what do I have here? Could it be the ever growing beauty, the young Uzumaki, Narumi?" He murmured into her ear with a sadistic grin on his scarred face. The ninja before her, was Takeo Uchiha, Chunnin of the Leaf Village. Takeo had short black spiky hair, obsidian eyes, and a faded pink scar across his left eye and down his cheek. The young Uchiha, barely twenty, wore black ANBU style pants with the ankles taped, and the traditional Uchiha dark blue shirt with the fan on the middle of his back.

"What do you want, Uchiha?" She asked with feigned politeness. The tone of her voice caught his attention and he didn't like it.

"You. I want you. And I will have you, whether you want me to or not." He snarled, his sharingan flaring. Roughly he grabs her chin making her stare in to his full matured sharingan, casting a genjutsu on her. The purpose of the genjutsu was to make her more agreeable to what ever he said.

"Now, my prey, do you want to come with me and have some fun?" Takeo smiled innocently at her, trying to make sure she didn't break the genjutsu before it completed its purpose.

"Yeah..." , the aspiring ninja mumbled. Her eyes glazed over. The Genjutsu was set and so was her fate.

Meanwhile...

The ANBU Captain, Dog, was searching frantically, well as frantic an ANBU can be, for his young charge. His task was to make sure no-harm befell the young redhead, but alas he had lost track of her. And when she didn't want to be found, 95% of the time she wasn't. He was hoping for the 5% to be on his side. Today was the day when she was usually found hurt if the ANBU didn't keep a close eye on her.

Everything was going smoothly then two inebriated chunnin thought it was a good idea to spar in the middle of the festival. Dog had knocked them both out and let their friends handle taking home. During the interval of ninety seconds her lost the last Uzumaki in the whirlwind of people.

As he focused on her chakra signature, he felt a slight spike her in chakra. That sent red flags off in the ANBU Captain's head. If she didn't want to be found or followed she wouldn't spike her chakra. As soon as the spike calmed her signature disappeared again. Something was happening to the birthday girl and it wasn't good. Dog body flickered to the where the spike of her chakra was. He was hoping he made it in time.
