Here's a story I've been working on for a while. In this story, just like the title describes, everything is made of paper even the characters. The features in this story are kind of like Paper Mario only it's more anime like. During anytime in the story when you see "Cue Stage" it becomes like the game Paper Mario and the characters are battling on a stage. So the story has a basic idea from Paper Mario, but it's full Naruto. Oh and one more thing, they're in their chibi forms.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, except the characters that I'm going to make up in the story.

~Introduction~

Today…I'm going to tell you a story of "Ninjas and Spirits".

Far, Far away, beyond the sky, way beyond the clouds, it's been said that there's a haven where the elements originated. In the Sanctuary of the Elements, there rests the "Element Scroll", which has every elemental jutsu ever created. Using this wondrous scroll, the five revered Element Spirits, watched over our peaceful world carefully…very carefully. And then… Oh dear… What the…? Who stuck that weird thing into the story?

A portrait of Kabuto adjusting his glasses; standing next to the scroll was scotch taped onto the page…literally.

"Kukuku! Yes! It was I! So I can, at long last, destroy the Hidden Leaf Village I'll be taking this scroll. Kabuto, do it now!"

"Yes Lord Orochimaru."

Kabuto used his chakra scalpels to cut himself loose of the scotch tape and focused his chakra into the barrier that is protecting the scroll. Orochimaru walks up and snatches the scroll up and laughs manically. The five Element Spirits of Fire, Wind, Earth, Water and Lightning arrive into the Sanctuary.

"Now Kabuto, seal the Spirits away!" Orochimaru commanded.

Kabuto smirks and forms a flurry of hand signs. "Sealing Jutsu!"

A blinding light fills the room, and the Spirits are sucked into five separate scrolls.

No! Orochimaru, stop! You're changing the story!

"Kukuku… We've succeeded! That was easier than I thought kukuku!"

~oOo~

Sleeping soundly, with all the covers kicked around, is Naruto Uzumaki. The thirteen year old boy is currently dreaming about him being Hokage, when suddenly his alarm clock went off waking him up. He groggily smashes his evil clock with his fist.

"Stupid clock, waking me up."

He opened his eyes, stretches, and yawns.

"Well, might as well get my butt out of bed," he said. He gets up and walks up to his calendar and looks at it.

"Today is Tuesday…huh? What's this about a festival?"

He thinks for a minute or two, then he remembers.

"Oh, that's right! Today is the festival celebrating the creation of Konoha!"

He takes a quick shower, gets some breakfast, and heads out into the village.

"Oh yeah, we were also supposed to meet at the bridge today," Naruto says as he picks up his pace.

~oOo~

At the bridge, Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno are waiting for Naruto and their sensei, Kakashi Hatake, to show up.

"Geez, where are they? Don't they know what today is?" Sakura complains as she paces back and forth.

"Don't worry Sakura, they'll be here soon. Kakashi's more late than Naruto," Sasuke says trying to reassure her.

"Yeah, but for a day like this, you'd think they'd be on time for once."

"Guys!"

They spot Naruto running towards them.

"Sorry I'm late, I overslept."

Sakura sighs. "I'll forgive you this time, but don't be late again!"

Now Kakashi is the only one left to arrive.

~Two Hours Later~

"Yo,"

"You're late!" Naruto and Sakura shout in unison. Kakashi is standing in the edge of the bridge.

"Sorry, but I had to help an old lady across the street and…"

"LIAR!"

"Well, anyway, now that we're all here let's get going to that festival shall we," Kakashi says.

"Yeah!"

~oOo~

Throughout the whole village, booths are set up, and everyone seems to be having a great time. Naruto at this moment is looking for a specific someone, so he doesn't care about the activity booths at the moment.

After a few minutes of searching, he finally finds her.

"There she is,"

Naruto walks up behind her and wraps his arms around her waist, startling her.

"Oh, Naruto, Don't startle me like that," she says smiling. She is wearing a lavender kimono with purple flowers formations all over.

"Sorry Hinata, I couldn't resist," he says while giving her a grin.

As the day went on until dark, they went to a few booths to have some fun. They went to a few booths where Naruto won Hinata a goldfish and an over sized teddy bear. They even went to a few food stands even to Ichiraku's. I mean what's a festival without ramen? But really they spent most of their time at the festival just talking and enjoying each other's company.

We now find them sitting up top of the Hokage Monument looking over the village.

"Naruto, I really had a good time today," Hinata says with her head lying on Naruto's shoulder.

"Me too, I had the time of my life today just spending time with you."

They turn to each other and lean in for a kiss, when suddenly, there was an explosion at the village gate, and then along the village walls.

"What the!"

They quickly run to see what happened. When they arrive, they find the village is being ravaged by Sound Ninjas. The civilians are running around trying to find a place to hide or trying to find shelter within their own homes.

"What's going on?" Hinata asks.

Then she gets her answer when a giant snake slithers up the center of the village. Up on the snake's head stands Orochimaru and Kabuto smirking down upon the villagers.

"Citizens of the Leaf, I understand that today is a very special day! The creation of this village! But today is also a new day for a new page in history of the Leaf Village; it's destruction!" Orochimaru cackles.

More explosions are seen and more snake summons appear and start destroying everything.

Orochimaru and Kabuto leap down and land in front of Naruto and Hinata.

"Well, well, if it isn't the Kyuubi brat. It's been awhile," Orochimaru says.

Naruto explained to the entire Rookie Nine and Gai's team about the Kyuubi, so the term "Kyuubi brat" didn't surprise Hinata at all.

"Orochimaru, why have you come here? Are you here to take Sasuke again?" Naruto growls.

"Unfortunately, not this time. I am however, here to witness this village's demise."

"Not if I have anything to say about it!" Naruto charges at Orochimaru.

~Cue Stage~

Naruto's HP: 10 Orochimaru's HP: 20

Naruto runs up and punches Orochimaru dealing 1 damage.

"Striking Shadow Snake!" Orochimaru holds out his arm and snakes strike Naruto dealing 1 damage.

Naruto runs up and punches Orochimaru dealing 1 damage.

"Kukuku, persistent as always, but this victory will be mine boy."

Orochimaru pulls out a scroll.

"You see, I've travelled to the Element's Sanctuary and obtained this scroll, the "Element Scroll"! This scroll has every elemental jutsu ever created. Now, let's give one a try."

He searches the scroll for a jutsu.

"Ah, let's try this one."

He makes a few hand signs.

"EARTH STYLE: MUD CANNON!"

A cannon make of rock rose from the earth and fired a huge blob of mud that smashed into Naruto, dealing 4 damage.

"Kahahahaha! Behold the power of the "Elemental Scroll"!"

"Ow, that hurt!" Naruto runs up and punches Orochimaru dealing 1 damage.

"Hmm, let's try this one next." Orochimaru makes some hand signs.

"WATER STYLE: GRAND TSUNAMI!"

A giant wave of water slams into Naruto into the ground; dealing 4 damage.

"Ow! Man, I can't take much more of this." Naruto runs up and punches Orochimaru dealing 1 damage.

"Kahahahaha! It's time to put an end to this little game!"

Orochimaru didn't look at the scroll for this jutsu. He makes some hand signs.

"FIRE STYLE: DRAGON FLAME BOMBS!"

Fire irrupts from Orochimaru's mouth and the fire explodes around Naruto dealing 7 damage, and claiming the remainder of his HP. Naruto face plants into the ground.

~Battle Over~

"No, Naruto!" Hinata shouts. She quickly runs up to him to check if he's alright, but Orochimaru beats her to him and picks him up by the collar of his jumpsuit.

"Kahahahaha! Now to get rid of this trash." Orochimaru tosses Naruto into the air and quickly flows through hand signs.

"WIND STYLE: GREAT BREAKTHROUGH!"

A powerful gust of wind sends Naruto flying into the darkness of the night.

"NARUTO!" Hinata watches as Naruto disappears into the night.
