A/N: I never really regarded myself as a Mary-Sue writer, but then again I am an OC creator. So here's to my Mary-Sue fic. Um, so far no pairings planned. You'll have to read up to at least chapter 230 in the manga to understand what I'll be writing. In my story, Naruto managed to bring Sasuke back, 'kay? I can't stand seeing Naruto beat up!!

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.

Hokage's Office

"Mou, I hate paperwork!!!" A busty lady who looked like she was 20 pushed away the pile of papers in front of her. Tsunade let out a frustrated sigh; signing papers wasn't on her to-do list when she took the name of Hokage. She pinched her eyes shut, trying to relieve the strain on her brown eyes. Uchiha Sasuke had been successfully retrieved by the team of Genin led by Chuunin Nara Shikamaru, with a little help from the Sabakuno siblings. Okay, maybe they suffered life-threatening injuries and could've easily died but hey, they made it, right? Konoha was rebuilding very well and majority of the village had already gone back to its usual state. No news had been heard from the Sound Village or of Orochimaru. Still, they can't afford to loosen their attention. Now, some shut eye sounded like a good idea…

Konoha village

A golden blur jumped from roof to roof, making his way across the village. Uzumaki Naruto stopped for a while to look at the four faces carved onto the mountain side. One day, he will claim the title of Hokage and surpass the others. That has always been his dream. "E to, I've said 'Ohayou' to Sakura-chan, gave Shikamaru a wake-up call (that no doubt he does not appreciate) had my cup ramen breakfast…training's not until later, what am I gonna do?" After a while's thought, the blond grinned as he decided to visit that grumpy old lady in her office.

"Tsunade-baba! A re?" Naruto sweatdropped at the sight of a sleeping Tsunade. She's even drooling on her table! "Mataku, what kind of a Hokage are you? Hm?" Suddenly, a sly grin replaced the frown on his face. Tsunade-baba will definitely have a shock when she wakes up.

Something tickled her nose. Frowning, Tsunade wrinkled her nose. But the tickle didn't go away. She clenched her eyes tight. ((Go away. And I was having such a nice nap?)) Wait, nap? "Holy sh-!" Tsunade's head shot up and banged on a pot that hung above her. Before she had the chance to even cry out in pain, a bucket tipped over and down came the water in a splash. "ACK!" Chalk powder came next, making Tsunade looked like a very lumpy flour monster. Naruto was currently finding not laughing very hard to accomplish. Tsunade belted out a string of colourful curses, before catching a distinct snort which turned into peals of laughter. "NARUTO!!!!"

Five minutes later, a cleaned-up Tsunade sat at her table with Naruto seated in front of her. The blond boy was currently massaging his bruised head. "Itai yo! You don't have to hit that hard, Tsunade-baba!" "Don't call me that, brat! You deserved it!" A soft chuckle.

"Dare ka?" demanded the blond shinobi, as he drew out a kunai. Tsunade too had gotten on her feet. Suddenly, three figures stepped out. Tsunade was stunned to see that they were three girls. The seemingly oldest girl spoke up. "Sorry for our rudeness, Hokage-sama."

"Who are you girls and what are you doing here?" ((I didn't even sense them.))

"Ah, how rude of me. My name is Nakamura Chiei. Dozo yoroshiku." The oldest girl bowed, her green tresses brushing her shoulder.

"Sakamoto Natsumi desu!! Yoroshiku!" said a very cheerful, and loud, girl with a ribbon-like hairdo.

The last girl had no smile on her face. She looked quite uninterested. "Nakashima Setsuna."

((Why didn't the Chuunins on patrol inform me?)) As though reading her thoughts, Chiei said with a smile, "The guards have been put to sleep. I'm sorry we have to intrude like this." Tsunade sat back down. "De, what do you three want?" Before Chiei could say a word, Natsumi interrupted, "We wanna be Konoha ninjas!" "Nani?!"

"You see, Hokage-sama. We used to be ninjas from Mizu no Kuni but due to a certain incident, we are exiled from our village." Tsunade raised her eyebrow at the girl, "Ho? And what is the incident?" Chiei looked somewhat embarrassed. "Oh, it was very unfortunate! You see, the son of the Water Country Lord likes to frequent our village. One night, he passed by us in the streets after coming back from a bar. I believed he had too much to drink. When he saw us, he acted rather…improper towards us. It wasn't serious…" "Not serious?!" cut in Natsumi. "He was trying to grope us! Serves him right I beat him black blue!" Tsunade sweatdropped. ((Mata tsukebe ka?)) "You didn't have to be so aggressive." "Aggressive? Me? Setsuna broke his wrist! I actually went light on him already! Anyways, he ran home crying to his daddy and we were called to see him. Then, he bombarded us with flying spit and some shit about not respecting the Lord of the Water Country and before we even got a word in, BAM! He exiled us! Just like that!"

During the whole exchange, Naruto carefully observed the new intruders. He took a liking to Chiei's gentle demeanour almost instantly. He found Natsumi to be rather loud and fiery, and what's with the strange hairstyle? However, he just couldn't put a finger on that purple-haired girl, who looked very much bored. Setsuna caught him staring. "What are you staring at, baka?"

((Grr, her attitude is so much like Sasuke's.)) Natsumi stopped talking. She stared at Naruto as though she had just seen him. "Oh, who's the shorty?" "Nani?!" Naruto pointed at Natsumi, "Don't call me shorty! Bow head!" Natsumi turned to fully face Naruto. "What did you call me?" "Bow head!" yelled the blond shinobi, prompting a shouting match. The two began exchanging curses, as Chiei shook her head and sighed. A vein popped on Tsunade's head and she drove her fists into both their heads. Chiei sweatdropped. "Yurusai!" shouted the Godaime. She dragged Naruto up and was soon yelling at him. Natsumi sat up and rubbed her head, "Itai…She really packs a punch." The dark-haired girl caught Naruto's eyes and they shot glares at each other. Tsunade gave Naruto another knock on the head, "Don't be rude! Introduce yourself!" Naruto folded his arms and pouted, "Aa, wakatta! Ore wa Uzumaki Naruto, Konoha no shinobi. One day, I will claim the title of Hokage!!"

Setsuna looked up. ((Uzumaki?)) Chiei also seemed to be thinking of something. "Anta-tachi, what rank are you?" "If you wish to place us as Genins, we don't mind, Hokage-sama." "Does that mean we're accepted?" "Hai." Natsumi jumped, "Yeah, I'm a Konoha ninja!!" "Ano, the lodging…" Chiei started. Setsuna stepped forward and spoke for the first time, "We'll live at his place." She said as she gestured towards Naruto. "Eh?! But I live in an apartment!" protested the blond. But Setsuna was already walking away. "That'll save me time from having to look for lodging for you. All right then! You three will live with Naruto. Give me your details so I can fix up your passes and documents."

"Eh?!" came the reaction from Naruto's pink-haired team mate. Naruto, who was in front of her, and Sasuke, whom she was glomping, winced at her volume. The three girls behind Naruto almost felt sorry for their new housemate. Sasuke took this opportunity to slip out of Sakura's grasp. "So, you three are from Mizu no Kuni."

"Sou desu. Watashi wa Nakamura Chiei desu. Dozo yoroshiku."

"Namae wa Sakamoto Natsumi!"

"Haruno Sakura. Yoroshiku."

"Uchiha Sasuke."

"Oh, the famous Uchiha clan." Chiei said smilingly. Sasuke looked away. He didn't like people to mention about his clan. It reminded him too much about Itachi, and that in turn reminded him about how he tried to betray Konoha last year. Sakura saw the smile she was giving the raven-haired boy. Inner Sakura screamed, ((Sasuke-kun is mine!! Jyanaro!!)) Sakura pushed Inner Sakura away and turned to Setsuna. "Um, excuse me. What's your name?" Setsuna shot her an icy glance that reminded her of her beloved Sasuke-kun. "Kochira wa Nakashima Setsuna."

Suddenly, there was a poof, and a silver-haired man appeared. "Maa, sorry I'm late. I had to help an old grandpa find his walking stick." As if on clockwork, Naruto and Sakura pointed at Kakashi and yelled, "Usotsuki!" "Ahahaha…Hm?" A single eyebrow quirked at the sight of the three girls. "Ah, you must the new Genins that Godaime-sama told me about. I'm Hatake Kakashi." "Well, since they're new here, you three, why don't you show them around the village? There's no training today then. Ja na." With that, Kakashi disappeared.

Team 7 had done as Kakashi suggested and showed the three new girls around Konoha. Well, actually Naruto did most of the showing around. Sakura was putting more effort into trying to get Sasuke on a date. They also brought then to meet with the other Genins.

Yamanaka Flower Shop

"Sakura big-forehead! Get your hands off Sasuke-kun!" yelled blonde Yamanaka Ino as she took Sasuke's other arm prisoner. "Shut up, Ino-pig! You get your hands off my Sasuke-kun!" Sasuke sighed. Maybe he should've gone straight to Orochimaru, if just to get away from these two. "Yare, yare. Uchiha-kun seems popular." Ino let go of the Uchiha and turned to look at Chiei. Ino was struck speechless. ((Who is she? She's so pretty. If I compete with her for Sasuke-kun, I might lose to her.)) "Watashi wa Nakamura Chiei desu. You must be Yamanaka Ino." "Ah, hai! Yamanaka Ino desu. I help run my family's flower shop." "Ah, is that so? The flowers here are very pretty, and fresh." Chiei smiled. Ino silently admired the older girl's grace as she spoke. ((I'm starting to feel incompetent already.))

Nara Residence

Shikamaru lazily introduced himself to the three girls. ((More women. This is going be troublesome.)) "Shikamaru is a Chuunin." Setsuna was rather surprised though it did not show on her face. ((Definitely doesn't look like it.)) Shikamaru shifted his weight on one foot. He frowned at Naruto. "I'm going to pay you back for waking me up so damn early tgis morning." Naruto was undaunted by the threat.

Hyuuga Residence

Hyuuga Hinata shyly met with the small group of shinobis. During their short exchange, Chiei couldn't help noticing how Hinata stuttered and blushed every time Naruto talked to her. While they were exchanging formalities, Hyuuga Neji came in. Another round of introductions was made. Neji observed them wordlessly. ((I hope they make strong opponents.)) And so passed the first of Chiei, Setsuna and Natsumi in Konoha.
