Kumiko Hasegawa was traveling around the land of Fire. She had her hair in two high ponytails in color black,no headband could be found on her. The color of her eyes was red and looked a-lot like Kurenai's,only brighter. Her traveling had lead her near the walls of the hidden Leaf Village. Kumiko was right now resting on top of a tree,when she sensed people approaching,soon she saw three people was a blond boy,around the same age as her,then a pink haired girl,also around same age and lastly a silver haired guy,older by 15 years. They stopped at the same spot she was sitting at,to take a rest,from their headbands it was noticeable they were leaf ninjas. It took a while,before anyone noticed the black haired girl and she wasn't surprised it was the older man who did.
"You can come out you know"He said and the kunoichi jumped down from the tree she was hiding at.
"Hm,for someone so young you surly are really good at hiding"He said again
"If a jounin isn't able to stay hidden unless it wants to be seen,it can't call itself a good ninja"Was her answer
"You're a jounin?You're no older than I am!"Yelled the blond boy,who earned a smack to the head from the pink one.
"You idiot,Temari,Kankuro and Neji are also jounin!"She yelled. The first two names were familiar,so she decided to speak up.
"Well,I'm 19,I became a jounin at 15"Kumiko pointed out
"So you're almost the same age as us,half a year ahead or so"Said the pink one
"So,what's your name?"The blond asked
"Hm,when you ask for a person's name,it's only polite to give your own first"She responded. A dark look covered the faces of the young ones,so she turned to the older one in confusion.
"Don't worry,it's just that this kind of thing would usually be said by their old teammate,who left the village 4-5 years ago"He told her
"I see"She said and thought that 'Could they be talking about HIM?'
"Anyway,my name is Kakashi Hatake"Said the silver haired one
"Nice to meet you"She responded
"My name is Sakura Haruno,it's nice to meet you"The pink one said
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki!"The blond one said
'Okay,this Naruto has a-lot of energy' Kumiko thought to herself
"Nice to meet you all,I'm Kumiko Hasegawa"She introduced herself
"I take it you're from Konoha?"She asked
"Yep!But,what about you?"Naruto asked
"I...I've got no village,I've been traveling since I can remember,I had someone teaching me when I was younger,but he had to leave,so I then traveled alone"She told them
"Why don't you come with us then?"Naruto asked
"What?"She wondered shocked
"Yeah,it would be great!"Sakura agreed
"I'm not sure,I know nothing of the village and it knows nothing of me"Kumiko said
"It's okay,I don't think the Hokage would mind"Kakashi said
"You of all people should be against it,copy-ninja"The raven responded
"I see you know of me"Kakashi said
"Yeah,who doesn't!"Kumiko pointed out
"Anyway,why don't you come back with us,if you don't want to stay,then you can leave any moment you want"Kakashi proposed
"I don't see why not"She agreed
"By the way,can I ask you something?"Sakura asked
"Go ahead"Kumiko said
"Is your eye color really red?"She asked
"It's a long story,but yes"She answered
"I see,does it have anything to do with the Uchiha?"Kakashi asked,she stiffed at the name,but soon let it go,as the Uchiha was once part of the village
"Somehow it does,but there is no way I'm saying more about my eyes right now"She mentioned
"Sure"Naruto said and the rest of the way was only questions like 'Who my teacher was?'or' Do you have any bloodline limit?' and the blond asked 'Do you like ramen?'Even if she's got no idea why. It took an hour or 2,but they finally reached the main ninja,chunins were there,probably guarding.
"I see you've returned"Said the first one
"Yeah,it was a boring mission,Kotetsu"Sakura said
"And who is she?"Asked the other one
"Be nice Izumo!"Sakura warned
"I'm Kumiko Hasegawa"The raven said
"Well,nice to meet you,I'm Kotetsu and the one getting beat by Sakura is Izumo"
"Nice to meet you both"She said
"Come on Sakura,Baa-chan is waiting!"Naruto called
"Right!"Sakura agreed and let go of Izumo and we kept on walking. We,luckily,got to the Hokage's office without any more distractions.
"So,you completed the mission?"A woman's voice that could not be seen,as her chair was turned around
"Yep,you know Baa-chan it's time to give us something more interesting"Naruto complained
"Naruto,stop complaining!"Sakura said and smacked him head
"Thank you Sakura"The voice said,but it sounded so familiar
"Hokage-sama,there is something else that I want to tell you"Kakashi said
"Go on"The voice responded
"If you would like to turn around I could do it easier"Kakashi said and the chair turned around. Kumiko's eyes got so wide she thought they would pop out of her head!
"M-milady?!"Kumiko asked in shock
"Kumiko?!"She asked equally shocked
"Oh Kami!"Kumiko yelled and run to hug her
"Kumiko,I can't believe it you!"Tsunade-sama said as she hugged the raven back
"You,you're the Hokage?"Kumiko asked shocked when she let Tsunade go
"You bet!"She said with a smile
"Did I miss something?"Naruto asked confused
"No...well yes,you see Kumiko here was my pupil for a while,as well as that old pervert's and Orochimaru's,she was a fast learner!"Tsunade said
"Where are Orochimaru-sama and Jiraiya-sama?"She asked eager to see them
"You see...Orochimaru betrayed the village long ago"Tsunade said,not like Kumiko didn't know,just making sure
"I see"
"Jiraiya though is around here,so I wouldn't be surprised if you saw him"
"I'll look at the hot springs"Kumiko said and the two of them laughed
"So,what brings you here Kumiko?"Tsunade asked
"I was told that I could become a leaf shinobi"The Hasegawa said
"Sure!What rank are you?"She asked her
"Jounin milady"I answered
"Well,here's your headband"She said and gave her a black one
"Thank you milady"
"I hope you have a pleasant stay here"She said
"I will,thank you"
"Naruto,would you mind giving Kumiko a room to spend a couple of days at?"
"Sure Baa-chan!"
"Milady I'm sorry,but I'm pretty sure you know the place I would like to stay"The Hasegawa told her
"Are you sure you're ready for this?"She asked me
"Yes"Kumiko answered
"Very well then"She said and took a scroll out of the desk
"You can open it yourself,I believe"Tsunade asked
"I can,thank you"Kumiko answered and took it
"Okay dismissed"Kumiko and Sakura bowed and then the raven turned to the rest
"See you around"Kumiko said and disappeared,before reappearing in a place where it was quiet enough for her to open the scroll,only a familiar present,it was a hill with only a tree there
"Hey"Came a voice she knew,she looked to her left and saw a boy around her age looking at the sky
"Hey to you too"She said
"My name's Shikamaru Nara"He simply said
"Kumiko Hasegawa,remember?"She asked
"Nice to see you,when did you get here?"He asked,his eyes now full of memories
"Just came,it's been a while,no?"She answered
"You're a ninja now I guess"He said
"Wow,you think so?"Kumiko asked sarcastically
"Sorry,I guess you're right,so what's you doing here?"Shikamaru asked me
"I'm opening a scroll Milady gave me"The raven answered
"You know Hokage-sama?"He asked
"Yeah,she used to be my teacher along with Orochimaru-sensei and Jiraiya-sensei"I answered
"I see,so,what's in the scroll?"He asked
"Why don't we find out?"Kumiko asked back
"Okay"Shikamaru agreed
"Right"She said and opened looked at it before making some hand seals and the item in it appeared
"A key...and a photo?"Shikamaru picked up the key and looked at it,like it was golden,while Shikamaru picked up the photo
"So,a photo of you Itachi and Sasuke"He said
"You know what happened to him?"Kumiko asked
"He was in the same class as me,before he left the village with Orochimaru"He answered
"I see,he's after Itachi"She said more to herself
"So where does the key goes?"Shikamaru asked
"To my old house in the Uchiha"She answered
"Want me to come along?"Shikamaru asked
"Thank you,I need someone with me if I'm to go there again"So the two of them headed the way there they saw Naruto and Sakura
"Hey guys!"Naruto yelled as he waved at the two of them.
"Hey guys!"Kumiko also greet them
"Where are you going?"Shikamaru asked
"To eat,want to come?"Naruto responded.
"Sure,I can't clean with an empty stomach"Kumiko agreed
"Clean what?"Sakura asked
"My house!I'll have to clean it since it hadn't been used for so long"Kumiko answered
"Let's go to eat and then we'll help you clean the house"Naruto suggested
"Wow,you would do that?"Kumiko asked shocked
"Sure!"Naruto said
"Yeah!"Sakura added
"I don't see why not"Shikamaru also agreed,shocking Naruto and Sakura. Soon after they all ate they headed to the Hasegawa walked through the empty streets of the Uchiha,before they reached her house
"This is it"Kumiko said
"It's more of a mansion than a house"Shikamaru commented
"How did you get such a place?!The Hyuuga's is a-lot alike!"Naruto added
"I'm surprised you don't know of the story behind the Uchiha"Kumiko said
"What story?"He asked
"We've got to clean up the house,how about I tell you while we're at it?"Kumiko asked
"Sure"Naruto got inside and Naruto and Kumiko made 3 shadow clones each to wasn't long after that the house was clean
"So,tell us!"Sakura said eagerly
"The clan took the name Uchiha from my ancestor way back,before that it was named Hasegawa. The great grand mom of my great grand mom was named Miharu Hasegawa,she fell in love with a man called Uchiha Mashaka,who was just a guy left alive from an ex village that got burned to the ground. My family was originally the one of the Sharingan,only our eyes were red from birth,the child of Mashaka and Miharu had black eyes,the first one to ever have such eyes in our clan,but as it grew,the child's eyes turned redder and redder,until they became like it's mothers,the child of that child,was the same,only the red was fainter,the children years after never had red eyes as they once had,that's how the Sharingan you know came to exist. The clan was no longer Hasegawa,but those who were born with red eyes from birth were to be called Hasegawa,with the years,the name of my clan faded and the children with red eyes stopped being born,until I got born,from Mikoto,who was a child from the original was the first in over 100 years to have a child with red eyes,I was Sasuke's twin,but I was never allowed outside the clan,in fear of someone killing me,so I wasn't allowed to train or play with kids outside the clan. But then Itachi killed everyone,but left Sasuke and me alive,still Sasuke thinks I'm dead,because Itachi told me to leave the village and never come back. Then I was taken in by the Sannin then,but a time came they had to go,I was left alone again,but Tsunade-sensei promised me she'd one day come back to get me,I'm not sure if she did,fro I started traveling on my rest is not that interesting"Kumiko house was now clean and all she had to do is re-fill the house with the things she was going to need
"Wow"Was all the three could say.
"Yeah,I know,but please do not let anyone know about any of this"Kumiko plead them
"Sure"Sakura said
"No problem"Shika said
"You can count on us!"Naruto said
"Thank you guys!"Kumiko said with a smile.
