A New Chance- Chapter 1

A three year old Naru Uzumaki was being carried to the hospital by one Itachi Uchiha at a breakneck speed. Naru was unconscious covered in cuts, bruises, and blood. Itachi looked down at the young girl in his arms. "How could they do this to a child." he thought with a sad look in his eyes.

-flashback-

Itachi was walking back to the Uchiha district when suddenly he heard a crash coming from an ally. He started to run and when he reached the ally he found a mob of villagers and a few shinobi beating up a small child. "Hey what do you think your doing!" he shouted at them and let out a fair amount of killing intent. One of the shinobi stepped forward and said "No worries Uchiha san we are only getting rid of a demon spa.." but he never got to finish because as soon as he said the word demon Itachi knocked him and the rest of the group out. Then he ran over to the girl and started to shake her lightly." Hey are you okay!" he asked then checked her pulse that was very light. "Kuso!" he picked her up and headed to the hospital as fast as he could.

In Naru's mindscape

Drip,drip,drip. "Uhh where am I?" Naru said as she looked around. Her eyes landed on a beautiful woman who was about 5'6, had red hair, and a red chinese style kimono who was behind some bars. "Who are you if youdon't mind me asking?" "Ah finally awake I see. My name is Kyuubi but you ningen know me as the Kyuubi no Kitsune or Kyuubi no Yoko. I am truly sorry for how these ningen treat you I'm afraid it's all my fault." the woman named Kyuubi said with her head down. " Don't be sorry Kyuubi-sama. It's their own fault if they can't see underneath the underneath like hokage ojiji says. Naru said with one of her true smiles." You are a ningen that deserves my respect. Naru how's about I start training you so that you can protect yourself?""Really! That would be great thanks Kyuubi-sama." "Naru please call me okaa-san or Kyuubi okaa-san and as for the other matter it's the least I can do after all that you've been through. Goodnight Naru. Oh! Before I forget to talk to me you just need to talk in your mind and to reach me close your eyes and wish to see me or meditate." "G'night okaa-san!"

Back to the real world

Itachi just reached the hospital when out of nowhere the hokage appears in front of him. "Ah Itachi-san come with me and please hurry." he says then walks into the hospital. When Itachi walk into the hospital he sees the hokage at the end of a hallway waiting for him and heads towards him. "Itachi-san please put Naru onto the bed in this room then come to my office while tomorrow. I have to have a word with you and also congratulations on becoming a chunin today." the hokage said with a smile then disappeared. Itachi put Naru on the bed like he was told but as soon as he started to leave Naru opened her eyes and saw Itachi. " Hey what's your name?" she asked him. Itachi was a little surprised when he heard a voice but then he saw Naru and replied. "My name is Itachi Uchiha." "Nice to meet you Itachi-kun. My name is Naru Uzumaki. Were you the one who rescued me?" she asked. "Yes. Why?" "Because.." Naru stated as she got up from the bed" I want to thank you." and with that said Naru walked up to Itachi and gave him a small kiss on the cheek. When his mind registered what had happened he looked at her and found that she was smiling at him. Little did Itachi know, he was blushing as he turn around and walked out of the door but not before he said "Good night Naru-chan." "Bye Itachi-kun." Naru said as she made herway back to her bed.

Hokage's office

All of the main shinobi clan heads were called to the hokage's office later that night. Once every person had arrive the hokage started the meeting off by saying " I am sorry to call all of you here tonight but I have found out that once again Naru has been attacked." At this most of the people there had a look of sadness on their face because unlike the villagers they respected the Yondaime's final wish. "But I would like to say that she was saved by young Itachi Uchiha." when Sarutobi said this mostly everyone facefaulted because they could'nt belive the so called "ice prince of konoha" saved a girl or someone he didn't know. They all snaped out of their own thoughts when Sarutobi said "Now what can we do I'm afriad I can't look after her because of my role as hokage .." but before he could continue Uchiha Mikoto stood up out of her seat next to her husband and said " Hokage-sama if I may interupt Fugaku and I had a little talk and would like to know if we could maybe adopt her?" Sarutobi blinked once, twice then said " Are you serious Mikoto-san? You would do that." Mikoto nodded and said "Yes hokage-sama I have been thinking about it for a while and I asked Fugaku about it before we came." "Very well then. You may adopt her but first we have to get her from the hospital. With that said this meeting is over."

Naru's hospital room

'yawn' "I wonder when hokage ojiji is gonna get here." Naru thought. Knock,knock "Come in" Naru shouted at the door. "You should be more softer Naru. You are in a hospital." the hokage said while softly laughing.

"Anyway Naru how would you feel about becoming adopted?" "First I would have to ask who. Then I would have to meet the person." Naru said sighing. "Oh I think you'll like your new parents." the hokage said then moved aside and revealed two figures. One of the figures revealed themself to be a woman. "Hello Naru my name is Mikoto Uchiha I'll try to be the best mother you'll ever have." The other figure revealed itself to be a man. "Pleasure to finally meet you. My name is Fugaku Uchiha." "Hello nice to meet you." Naru said with a true smile.
