DISCLAIMER: I do not own Naruto in anyway. There are a select few characters whose name I've changed but I still don't own them, except for their new names. : )

A/N: This is my first story/post. I hope you like it. This story is set 3 years after shippuden. Basically Sasuke has returned to the village and the Akatsuki problem has been solved. On with the story

'Morning already?' she thought to herself brushing her blonde hair covering her face with hand. As she awoke from her slumber she looked around, scanning the room for her priceless emerald-green necklace. Locating her necklace on the nightstand beside her bed she giggled at the thought on how the unlucky-young-looking-seventy-year-old woman would react if she found out she took of her precious necklace that could buy mountains. Her smile faded quickly though, when she heard herself giggle.

'How long have I been like this?' she asked herself. Lost in thought, she wondered how much she has changed for the past three years. Her reminiscence ended as Soon as she saw her clock.

"Damn I'm late"

'Need to hurry, need to hurry!' she repeatedly thought to herself. She got up from the bathtub and ran along the room looking for something to wear.

After a couple of minutes of searching for her attire she passed the mirror and she paused as though time had stopped. She looked at her reflection in the mirror and was impressed and disappointed at the same time at how she looked like and was confused whether she liked her image or not.

She examined her figure head to toe tracing her well defined curves with her clear blue eyes. Her hair was short yet long enough to reach her shoulders and her cheeks were marked with three horizontal lines on each cheek. After a moment of idle gazing she focused on the spiral seal on her stomach. "I'm Kind of glad you're still there after this happened to me." After a few moments of silence her eyes widened in realization of what she was supposed to be doing.

A few minutes later

"phew.." she sighed in relief as she managed to descend down the stairs without being detected. Creeping through her house she managed to get to the front door. "Nice, the arrogant bastard is still asleep." she sighed in relief and as she was about to touch the doorknob of the front door a hand grabbed her from behind by then threw her to the ground on her stomach.

The man then pinned her to the floor making any attempts of escape futile. 'Dammit!' she cursed herself for not noticing the presence that caught her.

"Who was it you called a arrogant bastard?" the man asked. From the tone of his voice she could recognize he was pissed.

"Mmmph mmmh mummpgh" were the only sounds she could make as the man was pushing her head to the ground and her mouth was completely shut tight as her lips kissed the ground. The man then stood up then helped her get to her feet finding that he wouldn't be able to get any answers in this manner. She turned around and looked at the man. He had black hair his bangs were smooth and was flowing down but the hair on the back on his head were spiked and was pointing backwards and he wore a dark blue shirt and beige pants. 'Is this what Sakura-chan saw of him?' She thought blushing a bit as she looked at the man.

"I honestly don't know what you're talking about" she lied.

Deciding to let this one pass he said "Whatever just tell me where are you headed to." he asked sternly

She let out a sigh before starting. "Okay, I'm going out to train and I also have to meet up with Sakura at the Ramen Shop. Why?" She asked.

"Is that so?"He said with a rather satisfied look. Sasuke looked at her for a moment and then ordered "I'm coming with you, you might lose your cover, but before that cook me breakfast." He turned away and left for the dinner table, taking his seat he motioned for her to hurry up and cook a meal.

'Shit. How could he treat me as his maid?!' she thought grinding her teeth as she looked at Sasuke with disgust. She stood up and followed him to the dining room (which was one with the kitchen).

She walked up to the refrigerator and took two eggs and strips of bacon. "Sasuke, something's been bothering me."

"What is it?" Sasuke asked.

"Sasuke, Do you remember when I came to your door battered and beaten three years ago? Tell me what you can remember, I'll fill in the blanks if you missed something." she asked as she fried the strips of bacon.

Sasuke knew that 'battered and beaten' was an understatement compared to the state she was in as he remembers it.

"Fine I'll retell you the tale." Sasuke said. "I still remember it clearly so don't dare underestimate my memory."

Flashback

'BOOM' Sasuke looked out the window of his bedroom as the thunder clapped loudly as the lighting lit the pitch-black night. Rain was pouring down and the wind collided with the walls of his house. Staring at the black sky above him merely put him in a gloomy mood. He had just arrived from a mission and the weather conditions were already a hazard to his health or rather, his life. Bored he set off for the kitchen deciding to make himself a snack. As Sasuke was walking towards the kitchen there was a knock on his door.

"What idiot would go out in this type of weather?" He grumbled walking towards the front door. He wasn't in a good mood and he wasn't about to let anyone in his house. He stopped in front his of his door and counted to three

'One…two…THREE' As soon as he counted to three he kicked the door open. "Who is stupid enough to go out and about in the storm and come knocking on my door?" He emphasized the first word. No one answered to his yell so he looked around, trying to see whether someone was pulling a prank on him.

"Oi, down here." A voice said.

"Who are you and what do you wa-"He stopped as he looked down shocked by what he saw before him. There was a man in front of him, the man had spiky blonde hair. He was wearing orange sweatpants, a torn black tank top. Along the area where the tank top was torn there was a large gash on the man's stomach and Sasuke observed that most of his body was covered with cuts and bruises. Even though he was a bloody mess, Sasuke was still able to recognize the injured man.

"N-Naruto, Is that you?" he asked shocked.

"Yeah, How are yo-" Naruto suddenly fainted. Sasuke instantly took the bloody Naruto Inside his house and laid him down on the sofa in the living room. He rushed into the bathroom searching the drawer for his first aid kit. After getting what he needed he placed it on the table next to Naruto and ran to his bedroom searching his drawers for dry towels. Finding all he needed he rushed back into the living room and tore the rest of Naruto's clothes.

He observed Naruto, looking for broken bones or any other barely visible injuries. He then put his palm over his patient's forehead. "Damn, That's one hell of a fever!" Sasuke said. He washed Naruto's wound and began stitching it. After applying pressure he noticed that the wound started closing slowly. Relieved, he cleaned the remaining cuts on Naruto' body and placed bandages to avoid infection. He then took a cold hand towel and laid it on top of Naruto's forehead.

"Oi, Thanks." Naruto said regaining his consciousness. He observed himself, impressed by the treatment given to him. Sasuke. Jumped up slightly, his face did not show any sort of surprise however.

"Don't mention it. It's interesting though, I always knew you were an idiot but I didn't know you were THAT much of an idiot to go battle out in a storm like this" Sasuke said.

"Oh stop with the compliments!" Naruto said sarcastically. Then he paused. "Why did you take me in?" He asked bewildered.

"What? Why, I just got back from a mission. Who did you duke it out with though? You ending up bloody in my door in this weather, probably the most outrageous thing I've ever seen." Sasuke explained.

"Oh you really don't know? Naruto said a little surprised.

"Know about what?" Sasuke asked. "Well you see, while you were gone all of Konoha's advisors accused me of something I didn't do. Said it was an attempted murder on Granny Tsunade. They banished me but they announced it to Konoha and other villages that I fled before they could execute me and the put my name in the bingo books.( Bingo Books contain info on runaway ninja such as Zabuza or Itachi.

Sasuke couldn't say a thing. He was shocked at what he just heard.

"S-s-so you're telling me that the reason why you were almost six feet under was because you're being hunted?" He stuttered and his voice was shaky.

"Yeah, so I better get going before they accuse you to. Last thing you need is to be proclaimed a runaway ninja for the second time." Naruto said as he burst into laughter.

"Sorry to burst your bubble. I'm not the kind of person who can live his life peacefully while he owes a life debt to a weakling." Sasuke said as he smirked. " Don't worry you can stay for the night."

Next Morning

Sasuke woke up as he heard knocks on his door. He got out of bed and walked over to his front door, almost tripping since he was groggy. He was only wearing his beige jogging pants "Who's there?" Sasuke asked not bothering opening the door.

"Sasuke-san we are the village messengers. We need to search your house, a criminal was spotted along this road. Can we come in?" they replied.

'Damn' Sasuke thought. " Wait a minute, let me go put on some clothes." Sasuke lied absent-mindedly. He ran to the sofa and shoved Naruto off waking him up. Suddenly Naruto started twitching and his teeth suddenly started chattering. The reason was most probably that he was only wearing clean bandages on his upper body and he was only wearing his boxers. His wounds closed overnight and there was no blood on his bandages.

"Naruto there are guys outside who's planning on searching the house." Sasuke whispered. "What?!, oi what do I do." Naruto yelled making Sasuke reach out and cover his mouth.

"Sasuke-san Is there someone with you." One of the men outside asked raising his voice.

Naruto stood up and started panicking around the living room.

"I got an idea. During my mission I found a book which contained a jutsu that should be able to change one's appearance with unknown seals. I don't know what you'll look like but I do know the effect lasts five years" Sasuke grinned as he he saw the horror on Naruto's face. Naruto gave an expression which said 'please don't!' Sasuke grabbed Naruto by the hair and started pulling him. " OW, THAT HURTS!!!" Naruto yelled unable to keep his voice down."

"Sasuke, We are coming in weather you like it or not!" another man shouted. Sasuke heard the door snap. Sasuke concluded that he kicked his door open. Sasuke then pulled Naruto to his room and threw him onto the bed. He rushed back to the door and locked it. Naruto stood on the bed and opened the window. "Let's get outta here, Even if you turn me in they're still gonna arrest me and I'm guessing they're gonna arrest you no matter what you say!" Naruto said seriously

"Sasuke you're hiding the traitor in there aren't you?" the man roared as he kicked the door.

"Naruto, I have an idea." Sasuke said as he simultaneously grabbed Naruto by his shoulder with one hand and pulled him hard while did some unrecognizable hand seals with the other. The force Sasuke used to pull Naruto was excessive causing Naruto to fall down hard on Sasuke causing Sasuke to land on his back. As soon as Sasuke finished performing the hand seals he closed his eyes and hoped for the best. There was a large poof and Naruto was surrounded with smoke and colors.

'Crack' the door burst open and three men stormed in. "SASUKE, NARUTO YOU'RE COMING WITH us…" the man in front stopped and his eyes widen as he saw something he thought he shouldn't had. Sasuke opened his eyes wondering why the man didn't bind them and take them into custody. Sasuke recognized the man as Konohamaru due to his black hair, he had definitely grown taller and he looked like Naruto when he was a genin, and identified the two behind him to be his teammates Moegi and Udon. Sasuke didn't move suspected that there was something wrong due to the look of surprise on their faces.

Sasuke looked down and a trickle of blood went down his nose. In front of him was Naruto or rather, a female version of Naruto. The girl did not look anything like Naruto's sexy no justu. Her hair was blonde, uncredibly smooth and flowed down and was long enough to only reach her shoulders, her face was cute but it had hints of the 'male' Naruto's features which were the whisker-like lines on her cheeks and her blonde hair and blue eyes. She was short and was at least six to seven inches shorter than him. He could feel her soft chest pressed against his and was stunned as he saw this as angelic.

As he was studying the result of his jutsu, he noticed something that made his nosebleed get even worse. Girl Naruto's bandages were loose and her boxers fell down to her feet and he deduced that the result was the jutsu which only changed the figure and the gender of his friend.

"SORRY TO INTRUDE!!!!" Konohamaru and his team said in unison bowing apologetically. He had obviously misunderstood the situation. They immediately left the room with red faces.

"So that's why he said he needed to wear clothes" Konohamaru mumbled his face still red.

"There's something about that woman, you think that woman could be Naruto-sama in disguise?" Udon pointed out.

"It can't be Naruto-sama's disguise is much more prettier!" Moegi said. The three of them went back to the Hokage's office.

Sasuke pushed the girl on top of him aside as he looked at the three genin walk out of their house. He was able to hear their conversation and he turned to the mostly naked woman in front of him.

"Oi, we need to give you a new full name." Sasuke said as he turned to look the other way. "It seems that even the three who idolize you can't even recognize you in that state" he said thinking of a name.

"A new name what for, and why didn't they arrest u-" She paused as she looked down. She was shocked and she ran to the bathroom and stared onto the mirror.

"SASUKE WHAT DID YOU D-" She was stopped as Sasuke put his hand over her mouth.

"Your new name will be Miko." Sasuke started. "and your surname shall be Inoue."

Flashback end

"Inoue Miko" Sasuke said finally finishing his story.

"Don't tell me picked that randomly." Miko said anxiously.

"No I thought about it." Sasuke replied. He looked at his watch it was already twelve o' clock. " What time are you supposed to meet Sakura?" Sasuke asked.

"Ten thirty sharp" Miko replied. "You're two hours and thirty minutes late." Sasuke pointed out.

"WHAT!?" Miko yelled. She immedietley rushed to the front door and quicly wore her running shoes.

"Oi, wait a minute! What about breakfast?" Sasuke demanded. "Eat that stuff at the frying pan." Immediately after Miko replied she dashed to the direction of the Ramen Shop.

Sasuke stood up and walked over to the stove. He could roughly identify the black charcoal on the frying pan to be his breakfast.

"Damn that idiot" he mumbled as his eyes twitched. He quickly darted to his room to get a change of clothes as well as a pack of weapons and he followed Miko to the Ramen Shop.

A/N: I'll immediately start for the next chapter but I'll wait for a few reviews before I post it.
