A/N Yay we finally get to the Naruto Universe where our main hero will possibly freak the hell out. And what better way to flip out than with curse words that put Hidan's grandma to shame. Just kidding! Not that bad but it is rated T for a reason people! Thank you so much for pressing the next button readers hope first chapter wasn't lame but this is my first fic in which I was inspired by lightning (not literally thank that kool aid man!) This story will pretty much be rated T for making out, action, break ups, make ups, and tons of Booms! though not yet o_O haha but please enjoy the story! By the way the Yashamaru incident won't happen for a while. Now for the disclaimer!
Disclaimer: Author - Please Kankuro-sama. Kankuro - No way! Author - Awww but why? Kankuro - Because you're in love with my creepy little brother! Author - Awww not fair he's so cute and adorable! Kankuro - (anime tears) What about the middle child? Author - Well to be honest without the weird face paint and kitty hood you actually look cute. Kankuro - R-really? Author - Yup. Plus I'll buy you a copy of Make out Paradise. Kanuro - (sigh) Fine this author does not, never have, and never will own Naruto and/or Naruto Shippuden and/or characters except her OC and plot changes. Those belong to Masashi Kishimoto, Viz Media, TV Tokyo and whoever else owns the copyrights of Naruto but not her. Or anything else she mentions like Cheetos and kool aid. Now where's my damn book! Author - (grumbling) Fine, fine. Anyways on with the story!
Feeling encased in darkness Alyson felt warmth spread throughout her. Soon however the warmth became unbearable and she couldn't stand it anymore. Feeling pain in... well every where our hero slowly opened her eyes groggily, feeling as if she had been asleep for years. Sitting up slowly she used small stubby fingers to rub her eyes. With her vision clear she noticed her now oddly stubby fingers and hands. Looking down at herself she almost held back her string of curses. Almost. "What the mother flipping kool aid drinking sailor fucking flinging singing ringing dings happened!", Alyson shouted loudly to the skies. Looking at her now small body she didn't see her 15-year-old body but her 5-year-old one instead. Her clothes had also changed to an odd tan short-sleeved shirt, dark grey pants, and black sandals.
Sneering at her 'new' wardrobe she plucked up her courage and looked around to see sand, sand, and whaddya know... more sand! Blinking rabidly she smacked herself to get the hell away from this dream only to feel pain in her cheek. 'Okay just calm down. Let's see... I'm 5 years old and in the middle of a dessert. BUT how the hell?!', Alyson thought panicked out of her wits. She doubted this was some crazy hallucination so she tried to review what had happened before she got to the shrinking people place of fiery grains. She thought back to the swing set, the book, and the slendy... "Damn you Kool Aid man... I mean Slenderman!", Alyson shouted again to the heavens. Hoping no one saw her angry grudge against the red jug of evil 'oh yeahs' she looked around only to see a book bag near her.
Cautiously crawling over to the bag she used shaky fingers to unzip the bag and turn it over spilling its contents onto the sand. She saw her sketch pad, drawing supplies, iPod, heart locket necklace, family picture, extra clothes, bag of pocky, extra shoes, magic book and pen. Spotting the magic book she opened it hoping to at the least see a 'haha' dedicated lovingly to her by the prankster himself Slendy. Biting her lip she wrote into the book with the pen all that was in her educated now 5-year-old mind... 'What the Cheetos sniffin hell?', Alyson wrote hoping to get some answers. 'I did as you asked and granted your wish. I will aid you in any way I can', the book wrote back in dark red ink.
Cringing at the choice of color of the ink Alyson sighed and wrote once again in the book. 'I don't remember any wish. Where the hell am I?', Alyson wrote quickly and fiercely. After no response came Alyson huffed irritated and slammed the book closed. Putting on her locket necklace she frowned as she had never found the key for it but kept it due to its odd designs and lock. While putting back her belongings Alyson finally registered the increasing heat and rose quickly to her feet. 'Gotta find some people or end up fried. Great!', Alyson though impatient blowing a dark violet lock from out of her face. Looking 360 degrees around herself she spotted something in the distance.
Hoping is wasn't a cheap trick or possible heat stroke she ran towards it with whatever strength she could muster. While getting closer Alyson took her nice sweet time in noticing the grains of sand all kindly pounding the shit out of her. Nearing the dark object she noticed it got higher and higher and soon it towered her. Getting a closer look and the sand out of her eyes she moved quickly inside the opening in the walls. "Halt, state your name and purpose!", a man yelled from behind her. Having no patience left she sweetly remarked, "Alyson. My purpose... I wanna be the very best like no one ever was!". The guard scoffed but said nothing else returning to his post and shook his head disapprovingly at the girl's disrespect as she kept on singing her weird song. Unfortunately for our hero due to her growing thirst she failed to notice the headband on the guard which would clearly tell her where she was. Running towards the village faster she soon felt more and more light-headed. Now dizzily stumbling she accidentally bumped into another young girl walking.
After falling and sitting up shakily she managed to stutter out "S-sorry I didn't see you or well anything". The other girl looked up at Alyson and was about to retort nastily but after seeing the girl's weak condition sighed and said,"Want some water? You look like you're about to pass out". Alyson clutching her head froze slightly. 'Why is that voice familiar? It almost sounds like-' broken out of her thoughts by the life saving offer Alyson moved quickly for the water jug and downed it in seconds. "Thanks. What's your name anyways? My name is Alyson the great but you can call me Aly", Alyson said after wiping the remaining liquid off her lower lip. The other girl chuckled slightly but happily said, "Temari, the also great I guess. And it's nice to meet you Aly". Alyson froze again but this time her head snapped up to the other girl's. As expected she was met with jade green eyes, blonde hair pulled messily into four ponytails and a small fan in her hand.
'Oh. my. bajeezus! Temari? But younger?! Oh no way!', Alyson thought while her mind was in shock again that day. Feeling brave Alyson asked, "How old are you by the way?". Temari looked slightly confused but answered anyways, "7 years old. How about you?". "5", Alyson answered strangely automatically. "Wow, you're as old as my brother...", Temari trailed off looking down sadly. Alyson noticed her sad look but was too deep in thought to comfort at her mention of her brother. 'Wait so if Temari is real then the Naruto universe is real. And if the Naruto universe is real so are Naruto, Itachi, Tobi, Pain, Gai, Rock Lee, Kakashi, Gaara-', gasping Alyson jumped quickly to her feet. Temari looked up startled at her outburst of revelations. "I gotta go but first... where's the playground", Alyson paused for dramatic effect.
Temari looked more confused but after a while simply pointed in the direction behind her. Quickly pushing the empty water jug towards Temari Alyson said a quick thanks and went on her way. Temari merely shook her head and muttered "Odd girl". After a few minutes the playground was in sight and Alyson smiled brightly. 'Wow getting to meet two of my favorite anime characters in one day! I just hope that Kanji symbol incident hasn't happened yet', Alyson thought as she now slowed her pace in caution. Soon enough Alyson spotted a group of kids playing soccer. Looking for a sign of red there was none. Sighing Alyson settled for watching the kids playing.
Seeing the kids laughing and playing put a smile on Alyson's face however their ball soon flew upwards on a high part of the wall near them. Several 'oh no's' and 'aw man's' were heard as Alyson got closer to try to help the kids but stopped as she saw sand pick up the ball floating downwards. Remembering the scene that had hurt her heart to see she felt her heart skip a beat as her eyes followed the ball to the small pale hands it landed in. Her eyes looked up to see sea-foam green eyes look down at the ball almost covered by red wild hair. She saw the redhead look up and form a shy smile as he offered the other kids the ball they had worried over.
Alyson smiled at how adorable the boy's smile was but saw out of the corner of her eyes the other kids did not feel the same way. The kids only screamed and turned running ignoring the redhead's plea for them to return. Alyson only frowned but her eyes softened as she looked back to the redhead. The redhead looked down as tears fell to the ground as he dropped the ball in front of him. Feeling her heart clench and a sense of determination Alyson walked forward and picked up the ball. When the redhead did not look up Alyson placed her hand on the redhead's shoulder. His eyes snapped up to her own light blue ones widened in shock at her touch. "Who needs those ungrateful kids anyways. But if you want we could play with this ball instead.", Alyson suggested feeling worried he might reject her as he said nothing. About to retreat the redhead spoke up, "Aren't you scared of me too?", he asked sadly. "What? No way, why should I be", Alyson said calmly though she knew why.
"Because I'm a monster. They all think so", the redhead replied looking down. Picking up his chin with her fingers Alyson smiled gently and spoke "I see no monster. Just a kid who looks lonely. Kind of reminds me of myself..." Alyson trailed off looking away. The redhead stared curiously at Alyson for a while before speaking wondering why there was no fear in her eyes like all the other kids, "What's your name?" "Alyson, but you can call me Aly. What's your name?", Alyson said playfully poking his nose. The redhead seemed shocked but quickly answered, "Gaara". Wiping the tears away with her thumb but ignoring the sand that shifted cautiously at their feet Alyson spoke gently, "Well then Gaara, it's nice to meet you. Would you like to play a game?". Gaara looked shocked and confused and slowly spoke, "You want to play... with... me?". "Well yeah. Since I'm new here I was hoping we could maybe even be friends if you want.", Alyson replied happily as she saw the small joy in his eyes.
"R-really? Um... okay then", Gaara stuttered happily as a small smile formed. Alyson felt her heart swell at the joy kicking the loneliness out of his eyes. 'Aww he's so cute when he smiles. Damn this kid must have really been deprived of friendship if he was that surprised', Alyson thought as she felt a pang in her heart. Shaking away the thoughts she looked back down at the ball. "How about we play a game of catch? When the person throws they get to ask the other person one question about them. Okay?", Alyson said. "Okay!" Gaara replied happily. As they spaced a bit away from each other Alyson couldn't help but think, 'Though honestly I don't really think he'd be all too picky as long as he's not alone'.
Smiling Alyson threw the ball towards Gaara and asked, "So what's your favorite color?". "Green and blue. What's your favorite color?". "Red, blue, and black. What's your favorite snack?" "Pocky. Yours?" "Hmmm... mochi! Are you gonna enter the Academy?" 'Since the show never showed it, might as well ask I guess', Alyson thought to herself hoping if he would she could join and become a ninja as well. "Yeah, but I'm mostly being trained by my father", Gaara said while looking down at the ball in his hands. "Cool. Hopefully I'll be able to go too and we can hang out there if we're in the same class.", Alyson said noticing his head snapped up with wide eyes. "You want to... be seen... with me?" Gaara muttered slowly as if told the world was ending. Catching the ball Alyson replied, "Hellz yeah! We'll be the awesomest buddies that school has ever seen!" Soaking up the information as if he would never hear it again Gaara only studied the strange girl who had offered him friendship and had called him her... buddy?
"If we're in the same class and there are no assigned seats wanna sit together?", Alyson suggested throwing the ball to him. However Gaara failed to catch it and sand blocked it shielding him. His eyes were wide and he did not move as if in a trance. 'Great I've ultimately put him in shock at simple kindness. Are these other kids that cruel?', Alsyon thought as she walked over to him worried. "Gaara, you okay? Good thing the sand protected you", Alyson said smiling lightly putting her hand gently on his shoulder. He flinched at the contact and the sand floated around her but he did not pull away. "But why? Why do you want to be friends with... me? I'm just a freak-", Gaara said but was interrupted by Alyson putting to finger to his lips.
"Now wait just a sec, even if I haven't known you for much long not once have I thought of you as a freak", Alyson said as Gaara's eyes became as wide as plates but she ignored it. "In my opinion I actually think all you've been is nice to me and if some brats can't see how kick ass you are well then that's their loss.", Alyson stated as she removed her finger. "Plus I don't think freaks are cute or adorable", Alyson added quietly and blushing lightly as she spoke her thoughts out loud. Gaara also heard it and blushed brightly. Before more could be said a man spoke out with a voice that Alyson had known well, "Gaara-sama, the Kazekage requests you- oh who's this?". A feminine looking man came closer noticing Alyson. Before Alyson could speak Gaara happily replied, "This is Aly, she's my new friend. Aly this is my uncle Yashamaru".
"A... friend? Hmmm interesting...", Yashamaru said as he studied her. Alyson suppressed a shiver as she felt uncomfortable by the man's stare. "Well then, it's nice to meet you Alyson. It's getting dark soon so would you like me to walk you home?", Yashamaru spoke after studying her for a while. 'Crap, where the hell is home? Gotta consult Slendy but also gotta make sure girly man doesn't see', Alyson thought while trying to hide her panic. "Umm... no that's fine. Really! I'm... supposed to meet my dad somewhere", Alyson said quickly. "Nonsense, it's perfectly fine.", Yashamaru stated with a glint in his eye that worried Alyson. Panicking Alyson failed to notice a man stand behind her and place his hand on her shoulder. "Thank you for the offer but I have come as her guardian to walk her home", the man spoke gently.
Alyson turned slowly to see whaddya know! Slendy! His face was again mostly hidden by shadows except for his midnight colored eyes. "No problem at all. We must be going now Gaara-sama", without waiting for a reply Yashamaru turned on his heel but Alyson caught the small look on his face of slight anger before it quickly disappeared. Gaara however stayed standing and looked to Alyson with a shy smile. "Will I get to see you again?", Gaara said with a hint of hopefulness in his voice.
Alyson grinned brightly while saying, "Sure! I'll see you tomorrow at the playground Gaara-kun". Gaara's eyes brightened at the '-kun' before he quickly nodded in agreement and turned to quickly catch up to Yashamaru. When they were out of earshot Alyson angrily turned to Slendy, "Where the firetrucking hell were you?"
Slendy merely turned and started walking. Halting slowly he turned slightly over his shoulder to say, "I said I would aid you so I did. If you want more answers follow me to your new residence." With that said he continued walking not checking to see if Alyson was following or not. Alyson merely shook her head and followed her new guardian to her new 'home' hoping to finally get some answers.
WOW! 2nd chapter was looong haha that's what she said. This story might also spoil Naruto episode 58 and 75-80 so it would be good to watch those. But I will most likely not spoil chapters 547-548 but mostly for now. And don't worry the humor has only begun! A/N One more thing to be said. This will not only focus on the Naruto Universe but instead of only focusing on that plot line this story will also focus on Aly and Slendy. Please review! Fast updates based on reviews!
