Author's Notes:This note was written by the author of this story to give you heads up on the story you are about to read. Firstly this is completely AU, meaning a lot of things don't happen like they do in canon. Secondly Naruto was born female and was taken to Amegakure to be raised. She will be very powerful, but not powerful enough to go against certain people, who you will find out while you read. Thirdly this story does have some Ocs and some characters from canon will also act OOC due to Naruto not being there. Fourthly the Akatsuki is Ame's elite shinobi force, much like Konoha's ANBU. Fifthly Madara Uchiha is DEAD and Pein is the leader of Amegakure. Sixthly this story is going to stray far, far, away from canon just because I have the power to do that. Will now that you have read all that I think you deserve a summary!
Point of Views:Story is in third person.
Properly Rating A Story:This is rated T for teens due to violence.
October 10th
It was a bloody battlefield! Corpses of Konoha's shinobi laid everywhere, their blood turning the green grass a dark red. Screams were being heard not to far from the battleground, from a village that seem to be consumed in flames. Half of the village had been destroyed by what seem to be an entire army, but what type of army could do so much damage. Who dare to attack the great Konohagakure, home to the most dangerous shinobi the ninja world had ever seen. Heres a hint, it was not an army of shinobi that wanted to see Konoha fall, nor was half of the village destroyed due to a war. If it was not war or a sneak attack, than what was it, that damaged the village and left half of Konoha's shinobi dead?
A giant, reddish-orange, fox known as the Kyuubi no Kitsune had attacked the village. Now why would such a great creature, able to flatten mountains with a swing of its tails, attack a village? No one will ever know, but it had left disaster in its wake and if the Yondaime had not sacrifice himself , the village would had been gone. Now the fox was gone, the only evidence of it being there was four large footprints in the ground.
A female with bleach blonde hair that reached down to her shoulder, narrow green eyes that seem to take in everything, and fair skin, surveyed the scene. She began to walk, making sure to avoid stepping on the corpses of the fallen shinobi out of respect, heading to the center of the battlefield. What was she heading for? The female was heading towards the body of the dead Yondaime, Minato, and her friend husband. Kneeling down, she took up an infant girl, that was held tightly by Minato, into her arms.
The infant was sleep, but what she could see was the blood-red hair that laid on top of the baby's head like a mop, her honey tan bringing out the color of her hair, and to tie it all up the infant was wrapped in a blue cloth. The female cradled the child close to her chest, getting back up from her kneeling position. She looked sadly at the dead Kage. "I will take care of her," she whispered to the dead man before walking away from the battlefield.
Couple of Hours Before
It was early morning in Konohagakure, most people were now just getting up from their deep slumber. Only people who were out at the moment were ANBU, who were patrolling the village for any intruders and genin racing to the training grounds, where they were to meet their sensei. The sky was painted a bright orange and pinkish color, the sun peaking right behind the Kage Mountain; giving Konohagakure a serene feeling.
Namikaze Minato was up, looking out the window of the Kage Tower, located at the center of the village. His blue eyes looked around the glorious village, which had just started preparing for the long day. Minato was a fairly tall, fair-skinned man with blond hair that spiked up with bangs framing the sides of his face, bright blue eyes; wearing a short sleeve white coat, over a long blue shirt, blue pants, and a green flak jacket. You could consider Minato a very handsome man, but he was already taken. He was known as the Yellow Flash and a SS-Rank ninja, mainly in Iwagakure.
Sitting on the coach near a bookcase was his wife, Namikaze Kushina. Kushina had a slender, but feminine build, fair skin, blue eyes, long bright red hair with bangs that framed her face; wearing high-collared, sleeveless white blouse under a long, loose-fitting green dress. Her clothing bulged at the stomach, showing the tale-tell signs of pregnancy. Other than that Kushina was a fairly attractive woman. She was known as the Red-Hot Habanero, feared because Jinchuuriki's Biju were useless against her, due to her unique chakra.
Sitting next to Kushina was Kugo Akina, friend of Kushina. Akina had a lithe body, light tan skin, narrow green eyes, bleach blonde hair that brushed shoulder and curled at the end; wearing black short, underneath a white skirt, black tank top, white arm warmers, a black cloak with red clouds tied around her waist, and an Ame headband tied loosely around the neck. Akina too was attractive in the eyes of many men. She was part of Akatsuki, Amegakure top ten elite shinobi in the entire village.
"So Kushina when are you due," Akina asked in uncontrollable excitement. It had been a while since she had seen Kushina and she was very happy for the pregnant woman. Akina had met Kushina before she moved from Uzushiogakure. Their parents had arranged the meeting and ever since they had been close friends. Akina was visiting from Amegakure for a little bit. "7 more weeks," Kushina said proudly, her face glowing "I think we are going to name her Hitomi."
"Oh Hitomi sounds like a wonderful name," Akina exclaimed clasping her hands together. "Yup, better than Naruto," Kushina spoke looking over at Minato, who had taken a seat at his desk. "Come on Naruto is a good name too," Minato whined. "It is a boyish name and the name of a ramen topping," Kushina retorted. "Can't it be Hitomi Naruto Namikaze," Minato asked?"No," Kushina snapped letting out a sharp breath of air. Hitomi was sure kicking her lately, which was unusually, but Kushina did not mind
"Kushina let's go take a walk outside," Akina quickly said, not wanting an all out war to happen in the Kage Tower. So getting up, Akina made her way to the door, Kushina right behind her. "Have fun Minato," Akina said before exiting the office. Kushina giggled and followed Akina out of the Kage Tower. Down on the streets of Konohagakure people had begun setting up shops, the children were on their way to the academy, and ANBU started heading home. Kushina took in a deep breath before walking beside Akina, taking the road to the marketplace.
Later
Akina smiled at Kushina, who was at the moment humming a soft tune. Kushina had given Akina a tour of the village once they had left the Kage Tower, showing her various places. Afterwards the had met up with Minato to have lunch at the Uchiha's compound. Kushina had introduced her to Mitoko and her two sons, Itachi and Sasuke. They had talked about arranging a marriage between Sasuke and Hitomi, much to Akina's displeasure.
After an hour had went by, Minato, Kushina, and herself had finally left. Minato had went back to the office to finish last-minute paperwork and promising Kushina that he would be there for dinner. Kushina had invited her, but Akina kindly declined not wanting to intrude. So at 6:30 the two friends had parted ways, promising to do more the next day. Yet, the two did not know that it was the last day they would see each other.
Present Time
"I'm your new mother," Akina said to the sleeping baby "Hitomi." Making her way out of Konohagakure and back to Amegakure. There Akina would raise Hitomi the way she would had been if Kushina and Minato was still alive. She made her way to the forest of Konohagakure, and looked back at the village. As Akina was retrieving Hitomi the screams had died down and the flames were extinguish. She smiled sadly at the village, before hoping into the trees, opting for the faster way home.
The Kyuubi had taken the lives of 28 adults who were not shinobis, 18 kids, and 32 shinobi, while injuring around a hundred others. October 10 would mark the most unhappy event in Konohagakure history. And it would leave a deep scar on the village for years to come.
