Uzumaki Naruto found a small spring of glowing, greenish blue liquid in a cave at Wave Country while out exploring. Thinking it's some plant nectar, she drank it and a world of pain and soon, power and knowledge followed. She just drank the Lifestream itself! FFVII X-Over SOLDIER Type!Fem!Naruto

Changes

Back at Tazuna's house...

'You're finally ba...ck?' Sakura croaked as she, Sasuke, Tsunami, Kakashi and Tazuna stared at the girl who came back from training. Gone was the second waif-thin, small girl but...who gets overnight growth spurts? And why are her blue eyes glowing? She looked dead tired on her feet and by the looks of things, she dragged herself here and finally fainted. 'Naruto?!'

'I don't know what happened but...' Kakashi mused as he picked his student up. 'How are we going to explain this? People don't just physically change overnight, even for people with Kekkei Genkai. Her clothes are too small for her now. Sheez...'

'I'll give her a bath, Kakashi-san. She's very dirty.' Tsunami offered and Kakashi smiled.

'Sorry for the trouble, Tsunami-san...I'll send a report home in the meantime and you kids, behave.'

After cleaning her up, Tsunami was annoyed. 'Kakashi-san, who exactly takes care of that girl?' Kakashi cringed at this.

'Er she lives on her own...'

'Clearly nobody told her how to be a proper girl!' she shrieked in annoyance. 'She somehow became a healthy, very developed girl overnight and she had no proper feminine wear and equipment?! She's a size C so we have to find a clothing store...'

'Oh crud...' needless to say, Kakashi found himself dragged to shopping, with Tsunami dragging him to shop for the girl's new clothes. Out of his pockets of course! With her having measurements, she could shop for what she needed. Ten bras and panties, and new shoes as well as a top and skirt. Upon having what's needed, Kakashi paid a hefty 9220 ryo and made a mental note to seriously pay attention to girls and ahem, their growth. He definitely doesn't want this to happen again! But at least compared to food in the country, clothes were cheap as people wanted food more than clothes.

Now they would wait until Naruto wakes from whatever heck happened to her while she was out training. She woke up the next day, however.

'Naruto, what happened to you yesterday?' Kakashi asked her worriedly. 'You came home a mess like a zombie or something.'

'My memories are a mess...I don't even know what happened myself.' Naruto slurred out. 'All I know is it hurt a lot when it happened...but I'm OK now.'

'Is that so? You became healthy, and had a growth spurt overnight.' Kakashi chuckled. 'You're now as tall as Sasuke. You're not a shorty anymore.' he joked, earning him a harrumph from his pupil. 'Are you really fine now?' Naruto nodded. 'Take it easy for now and stay home. Sasuke, Sakura and I will go to the bridge today.' and he left. When he was gone...Naruto cut her acting.

"It's better that nobody knows." she thought wryly. "Nobody should ever know of what I know." She then got up to look at herself in the mirror. Dang! The Mako made her body sexy and healthy! Sakura's bound to pop a blood vessel after seeing this! Moreover, what will Sasugay think? Teehee! And she got nice clothes too!

She smirked. She would test out her newfound powers and jutsus. This oughta be fun! Too bad she had to keep most of them...secret. Urgh! She trained in the backyard that morning, but her newfound senses sensed two people coming. She turned and with her newfound sight, she saw two men carrying swords headed her way. "Hm? I got a bad feeling about this." she snuck up on the two men stealthily.

'Yeah so what do we do with the woman after using her as hostage?'

'I dunno, boss said we can do whatever after her usefulness wore out and the old man dead.' the other chuckled. 'She better be a good screw. I haven't had any lately!' her personality as Kushina pissed her off. Naruto understood what the two men were talking about, and her father's persona took over. No mercy for the wicked, he says. Taking out her kunai, she appeared behind the two men and stabbed the back of their heads.

'Huu...mama and papa's personalities have yet to merge with mine.' Naruto mused as she wiped her kunai. 'I feel like having split personalities but...' she blushed. 'I like it.' she giggled childishly. 'I better go to the bridge~!' and she ran off for the bridge and snuck around. Her sensei is fighting Zabuza while Sasuke was fighting the Hunter they saw the other day. Sakura was guarding Tazuna...with rather shaky knees. She sweatdropped. Her 'mama' persona told her that Kunoichi standards sure went down since the Third World Wars ended when in her day, she was a skilled high-chuunin level at her age.

Even before her power-up, Naruto was stronger than Sakura. The girl hated getting sweaty, dirty and smelly, thus hardly trained at all and would rather much cheer Sasuke on at the side lines. Yet she had the nerve to call her weaker than she is? Haa?! There are times that she wanted to hit the pinkette but Kakashi would always diffuse the cat fights. She needs to humiliate the girl at least once, to wake her up to the reality of their chosen job career. But the situation now serves, since she's afraid for her life. After all, if Sasuke loses, she's next.

She's feeling a little vindictive.

She watched from afar for Sasuke to get hit all over by ice needles. By her hearing, Sakura shrieked on how dare the Hunter kill him. Uh duh? It's his job? But luckily for all of them, Sasuke isn't really dead. The Hunter used the same trick on him like he did Zabuza a week prior. After he 'killed' Sakura, she had to butt in. After all, Tazuna will die for real. 'Opps! I'm your next opponent!' Naruto cried as she appeared in front of Tazuna and snatched the needles meant for him mid-air.

'Naruto?!' Tazuna sputtered. 'But aren't you sick?!'

'I can't be sick now gramps...because this job's messed up. Not long ago, Gato sent two goons to your house to use Tsunami-san as hostage-slash-blackmail material. Right now or later, he'll be here personally with his army!'

'What?!' Tazuna and the Hunter cried. 'T-then...'

'I knew it...I was right all along.' the Hunter swore. 'Naruto-san, I believe our job in killing Tazuna-san is over...will you aid me in taking down Gato and his army?'

'Sure thing! Besides, I owe you one.' Naruto grinned. 'Sakura was the weakest in our team. She's a fangirl through and through her kind is the reason why shinobi look down on us Kunoichi. Rather than training to improve her skills, she hated getting down and dirty and would rather be a cheerleader and she had the nerve to say I'm the weakest. Now that Sasuke's defeated and you ahem, defeated her too, her silly fantasies are shattered. I just hope that she grows up after this mission.'

'B-but those two are dead aren't they?!' Tazuna choked out while looking at the downed Genin.

'No...he pulled the same death-state trick on them like he did his partner a week prior, so I'm not worried at all.' Naruto said airily. Tazuna and the Hunter could only gape. To them, she was more than a loudmouth idiot...

'Uh...the way you talk, it's like you just satisfied your vindictive feelings towards your teammate...' the Hunter deadpanned as Naruto looked sheepish, while a black aura came out of her that spooked them.

'Am I that obvious? Ohhh-hohohoho!' she laughed complete with the pose of a haughty woman. The two men sweatdropped.

'S-she's vindictive...'

'So old man, go home for now. We'll handle this.' Naruto giggled as she took out two kunai. By emitting chakra and using shape manipulation, she now had beam swords.

'Oh? Nice trick. But why didn't you show something like that before?' the Hunter inquired curiously.

'Try having teammates like mine, and you'll be bound to want to keep most of you secret too.' Naruto snorted. 'Sasuke has a Superiority-Complex towards those weaker than him, and Inferiority-Complex to those stronger than him. He glares at those stronger and makes annoying demands. And to impress him, Sakura backs him up like a loyal puppy. There are many times I want to ask old man Hokage to switch teams but I'm afraid I'm stuck with them for life unless I get promoted to Chuunin. So I hide my skills to keep the two bitches happy even if it means getting insulted and put down every time. They're exhausting to be with.'

'That's harsh.'

'You're lucky you got a guy who appreciates you and sees you as an equal. I was watching since you came to the bridge actually.' Naruto smirked as soon, the Hunter perked up. 'Huh?'

'I'm sorry but it looks like I won't be joining you...I have something to do!' and the Hunter ran off. Naruto followed him to see him shield Zabuza with an ice mirror from a Raikiri. 'Zabuza-san, our mission has been compromised...we have been betrayed.'

'Izzat so? Get these mutts off me will ya?' said Zabuza gruffly.

'Naruto! Why are you here? Aren't you sick?' Kakashi sputtered out and Naruto had a feeling of deja vu going on...

'Gato's sent two thugs to two Tsunami-san as hostage.' Naruto grunted. 'I trashed them before heading here because Gato and a band of two-hundred will be here soon. By the looks of things, both of you are beat-up and exhausted, so leave the actions to us kids, OK boys?' she spoke in a sultry manner with hands on her hips.

'Oy Naruto, since when are you so uh...dang I can't describe your current attitude right now...' Kakashi groused out in a near-whining voice.

'It's called growing up, -ttebane.' Naruto stressed that verbal tic on purpose, causing Kakashi to gasp while Zabuza gave her a weird look on the face.

'Oy Kakashi, do Konoha kids tend to do 180 switches in personality? She's freaking me out.'
