I decided to write my own fanfiction. WHOOPEE!

To introduce myself, I am Erom Reven, a reverse of Never more. I like Naruto, Harry Potter, Zelda, and Kingdom Hearts, though I doubt I'll do a crossover.

This is an alternate universe of Naruto. As you all know, Naruto is an orphan. The author's use of Shikamaru lately has piked my imagination:

What if Shikaku is urged by his wife to adopt the infant Naruto?

I'm probably gonna make this a NaruHarem and ShikaHarem, but that's way in the future

With out further ado:

Chapter 1

"How troublesome…"

A man with dark hair and new scar near his eye looked at his newborn son.

Kyuubi had just been sealed. The 4th Hokage had just had a funeral, and a blonde haired newborn was up for adoption. Nobody wanted the kid though. After all, every one knew the immense evil power inside this boy, and was afraid it would come back.

That didn't stop Nara Shikaku. His beautiful wife, Yoshino had seen the poor boy. Shikaku thought his wife wouldn't want another, especially after Shikamaru was born not but 3 weeks ago.

But his wife was stubborn, and he was whipped.

"So, Shikamaru, you want a brother?" he asked, looking at his son.

The child looked at his father and smiled, as if agreeing, then closed his eyes.

"What a quiet baby you have, Shikaku-san."

Shikaku nearly jumped out of his skin.

"Hello, Sandaime-sama."

"I'm not the Hokage anymore. It is thankful Tsunade was here. Not only has she healed a good majority of the injured, she has decided to become Hokage. Though it was mostly due to Arashi's convincing before he… passed on." Sarutobi frowned.

"I'm actually glad you wish to adopt him. I found out something very interesting about him." Sarutobi continued.

"What is it?"

"He possesses wind and shadow element based chakra."

"But shadow chakra is only found in the Nara family…"

"You remember how your sister was pregnant before the Kyuubi attack?"

"No way…"

"Yes. Naruto is the son of your sister Ayumi and…" The aged man bent over and whispered something into Shikaku's ear.

"And also, I'm sorry about your sister…" the former Hokage left, leaving Shikaku to his thoughts.

- -Scene Change- -

Yoshino was very… excited, to say the least. She had always wanted a big, powerful ninja family. She was the mother of the heir of the shadow wielding Nara clan, and she had "convinced" her husband to adopt the child who possessed the Kyuubi.

Shikaku had just entered the living room, two bundles in his arms.

Yoshino squealed in happiness, then grabbed her two sons.

Shikamaru was all ready starting to look like his father from what Yoshino had seen of the man's baby pictures. He had a small tuft of black hair growing on his small head, and a hint of a lazy look was starting to appear on the somehow still asleep infant.

Naruto, however, was quite different. He was wide awake, but quiet, strange for a 3 day old child. He had large blue eyes and three dark whisker marks, and the oddest thing about this baby (aside from the marks of a Jinchuriki, that is): he had a full head of blonde hair.

Yoshino smiled, looking up at her husband.

"I can't believe I'm the mother of these two beautiful babies…" she said.

"Yeah… it's great…" Shikaku said, frowning a little.

"What's wrong, honey?" Yoshino asked, worried.

"Naruto's my nephew. The funniest thing though, is that my sister went had a kid with-"

At that, Naruto started whining a little, waking up Shikamaru, who promptly started crying. Yoshino sighed a little bit, took off her shirt, and fed the two children.

Shikaku, knowing his wife's discomfort at having others around while she fed Shikamaru, (and now Naruto) left the room to prepare a dinner for he and his wife.

-end-

Well, it's kinda short for a chapter, but it's only the prologue/first chapter.

Disclaimer: I own nothing but a few books, a couple of old baseball cards, and a computer. What makes you think I own something as valuable as Naruto?

Tune in for the next chapter!

Due between Sunday through next Saturday!
