Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or any of the characters in the anime, though I wish I did. Also, reviews on my work keep me very much interested in continuing a story so…yeah!


I Spy

All was calm and quiet in a certain ninja village hidden among the leaves and all citizens of said village were having a normal day. Well…normal for a shinobi village that regularly sent out teams of teenagers to kill people and participate in wars…and had been attacked by an overgrown and angry red fox with nine tails…yeah, completely normal. But on this most normal of days there was indeed something that had a certain degree of oddness to it, and those who spotted it were quick to remark on the strangeness of seeing a human eye floating around completely of it's own violation without a body to accompany it.

I spy with my sandy eye…white hair and a red coat.

Easy. Your looking at Jiriaya over by that fence. My turn. I spy with your Third Eye…oh my sweet Kami!

What? What is it?

Look at what Jiriaya is looking at!

What? I don't want to look at something the Toad Hermit is staring at! Wait…is that...Uzumaki Naruto?! But he…I thought…

Lets not jump to conculsions here, maybe its…yep it's him.

Why on earth would he develop a technique like that? It just seems so…pointless.

Your asking me? I've been locked up in a friggin' tea kettle for the past forty years, I'm not exactly up-to-date on new jutsu. Maybe it's part of new secret attack jutsu.

That is not an attack jutsu like anything I've ever seen.

It HAS to be, cause otherwise I don't wanna know why he'd use something like that.

Maybe…

I think your on to something kid. Lets give it a shot and see what happens.

The commune ended abruptly as the teal eye reformed back into the eye socket of it's owner. With a flutter of eyelids, both of the eyes opened up with a curious expression in them and a contemplative expression on the usually cool face.

Two Days Later

"Sasuke! Sasuke! Hurry up or we're going to be late for the movie! Its going to be the one time we'll see Kakashi-sensei show up on time for something and I don't want to miss it!" The source of this loud ruckus was of course Uzumaki Naruto as he pounded a fist against the door into the Uchiha mansion. For the first time in Team 7's history their sensei Kakashi had decided to skip the daily training to spring on a movie for the three genin under his command. It was only after Sakura had decided to see who was in the movie that they had discovered that the actress who was to play the female lead in the Icha Icha Paradise movie that was going to be coming in the next couple of months.

And since Kakashi was going to be paying for the whole movie going trip (For once) Team Seven was planning on milking the Copy Nin for every penny in his wallet. Extra large popcorns, milk duds, gummi worms, snow caps, hot dogs, and nachos. The works. However they couldn't possibly do that if the Uchiha boy didn't hurry up!

"Aggh, how long does it take that moron to grease up his hair?!" Naruto yelled to the unresponsive air as he began to pound on the door once more. People didn't know it but Sasuke had an addiction to hair gel that couldn't possible be healthy. An entire bottle consumed a day was neither normal or practical but Sakura and other fan girls thought it was more then worth to time for that glean in Sasuke's hair. When Naruto had tried it though he had ended up with spikier hair then normal that looked like it was made out of plastic, apparently certain cosmetic substances seemed to work for some and completely destroy the image of others. And with Sasuke it was a fifteen to half hour long process to get it all just right.

Almost as if he had received some kind of hidden signal, Sasuke cracked open the front door of the Uchiha household and peered out at his visitor. "What do you want moron?"

"What?! We're going to miss an all expense paid trip to the movies and I'm the moron?!" The hyperactive ninja roared, feeling a peculiar need to be extra loud this day. Probably had something to do with being around Jiraiya recently.

"...Movie? That's today?" Came the blank response from Sasuke with a distracted look on his face.

"Your kidding right? The great Sasuke Uchicha forgot about his precious triple cheese jalepeno and onion hot dogs?"

"Don't make fun of my hot dogs ramen boy! Only you would have a container of dried and broken up ramen powder."

"Thats not the point here! How could you forget about the movie?"

"Come here. I want to show you something." Sasuke replied as he retreated back into the Uchicha household, Naruto hesitated for a moment or two before following the other teen inside. It was vaguely creepy to be inside Sasuke's house with all of the pictures of Itachi every were with kunai and shuriken holes in them. Like seeing Kiba petting a cat, you just knew something wrong was about to happen. It was when Naruto actually entered into Sasuke's room though that the biggest surprise came.

Every available wall space was layered with photographs, sketches, and charcoal drawings of some red haired girl. Shortish hair that barely went down to the chin and completely devoid of any sort of hair gel. Thick eyeliner and kind of dull looking blue eyes with one of those square bandages taped over her left eye. An un-nerved Naruto picked his way across the floor towards the window were a rather expensive looking telescope was set up to peer through the curtains and glanced through the eye piece. All it was doing was looking down at the street and Naruto soon lost interest and turned back to an anxious looking Sasuke.

"Did anyone ever tell you that you need a hobby? I didn't exactly peg you to be the stalker type Sasuke...aside from your brother that is."

"What? No, I'm not stalking anyone! Look, does anything seem weird about this picture?" Sasuke took a moment to rifle through a stack of pictures before picking up one with the stalkee walking down the street in rather drab brown and black clothing.

"Hmm...yeah, why would someone that hot wear brown?"

"Naruto, you really are a dumbass. Alright, I'll put this in simple terms for you. Do you see a headband?"

"Nope but hows that weird? Lots of ninja don't wear their headbands around the village."

"True...but do you recognize that girl?"

The blond let out a sigh and took the picture again to humor the Uchiha and took a closer look at it. Now that Sasuke mentioned it, the red head didn't look familiar but that wasn't so weird. He hadn't even known most of the genin at the Chuunin exams, even the other ones who came from his own village. "No. So what?"

"Naruto, don't you think its weird that a ninja is walking around in our village without a headband and that neither of us recognize?" Sasuke replied with a condescending tone in his voice.

"Nope, now lets go hair gel. We've only got fifteen minutes until the trailers start and I'm not missing those since this movie probably sucks."

"You go on ahead without me. I'm going to stay here and keep an eye on the spy." A stunned silence followed the comment and Sasuke looked up at his teammate with a raised eyebrow. "What?"

"You...have a crush on her, don't you?" Naruto said gleefully, a wide foxish grin coming to his face. "You have a thing for red heads and your trying to rationalize stalking her! Oh man this is awesome, I can't wait to tell Sakura-chan!" Sasuke stumbled on his way to the window at that and spun around just in time to see the door slam shut in front of him. All the color in his face drained out as he thought about how Sakura would take the obvious lie that Naruto was going to tell her but it was too late and the Kyuubi-vessel was already gone.

Somewhere close by her hotel, a certain red-haired teenager sneezed and looked more then a little surprised by what had happened. She couldn't possibly be sick...could she?


First chapter done! Lemme know what you think, and just so you know there is a pairing in here somewere...just no yet...and no it doesn't involve Sasuke in any fashion...just guess. n.n
