Story of an Uzumaki; chapter 2:

Natsuki was training with Asuma on using wind chakra.

"OK, the basics of wind chakra, in order to use wind chakra, you have to refine your chakra control. Take this leaf, and place it on your forehead, and try to float it with your chakra. It shouldn't be too difficult, seeing as you are a kunoichi, this should be easy, but we'll see."

Over that weekend, everyone on team 8 learned the basics of how to use their elemental affinity, and they were assigned a mission with squad 7 the next week.

-At the Hokage Tower-

"Team 7 and squad 8, you will be assigned a joint high c-rank or low b-rank mission, to protect and escort the princess of the snow country and bring her back home. The journey alone is dangerous. Expect to be attacked by bandits and mercenaries, but they is a very low chance, about a fifteen percent chance, that enemy ninja will attack, which is why I am assigning two ninja squadrons' to protect the actress that you will be escorting, Fujimi Yuki."


Teams 7 and squad 8 escorted the actress to the dock in wind country. Apparently, they were going to do a movie in snow country.

"Oh that there is perfect for filming!" Said the director.

Everyone scouts the area. They were just about to declare it safe when they were ambushed by weird ninja in some sort or armor.

'Chakra armor.'

The 5 snow ninja attack and split up everyone, everyone facing off against one ninja. Kakashi unveils his sharingan eye. "Suiton! Suiryuendan no jutsu!"

Kakashi's opponent tried to use, but Kakashi copied it.

"Gatsuuga!" Kiba's opponent was a female snow ninja, who dodged the spinning vortex quite easily.

"Fire style! Fireball jutsu!" Since Sasuke was aware that they are in a snow country, he used fire jutsu on his opponent, who easily negated the attack.

Team 8 triple teamed two opponents.

"Byakugon!"

"Kokugen!"

"Kage mane no jutsu!"

Shikamaru's shadow trapped both ninja.

"8 trigrams, 64 palms!"

After the attacks on the enemy ninja, the enemies just shook it off. Natsuki seemingly disappeared, reappearing seconds later with a bloody kunai. The two enemy ninja die instantly as their throats are slitted.

Sakura uses her insane super strength to break the enemy defense, but other then team 8's attack, no one was killed.

'If ninjutsu or genjutsu don't work, there is always…taijutsu!'

With a renewed vigor, everyone engages their enemy in taijutsu.

"Shishi rendan!"

"Uzumaki Natsuki rendan!"

"Initial lotus!"

The snow ninja's weak point is exposed, and they run away.


Everyone traveled through the mountains. Natsuki sniffs something.

'That's a kitsune! She's trapped!'

Activating Kokugen, she suddenly disappears.

"Where did she go?" Asked Kiba.

"I have no clue where she went."

"Should we go search for him?"

"Nah, it's too troublesome…"

"Hmph…"

"I can scan for her with my byakugon, but she might be out of range…"


Natsuki appeared in a cave, about two kilometers away from his group. She hears the wailing and crying of a kitsune. Looking around at the snow cave, she almost missed the silver fox trapped, but then on a rescan, spots it.

"Oh, Ginjitsune, do you need help getting out?" Natsuki addressed the horse sized silver fox.

'Yeah, I'd appreciate it.' Ginjitsune thought, but Natsuki still heard it.

'You're thinking so no one believes that you are special. You have the power level of a two tailed kit.'

'What? How do you know?'

'Oh come on, don't you recognize Kyuubi's adoptive daughter? Maybe this will help…KAI!'

Natsuki's kitsune henge goes down.

'Oh, now I know, I'd appreciate it if you help me out here…I never caught your name, you can just call me Ginji…'

'I'm Natsuki, now let me help you, but maybe you ought to shrink down in size…'


"Natsuki's not within range of my byakugon, but I have a feeling that she'll be back soon." No sooner did Hinata say that, when Natsuki appeared in her blind spot.

'Well, this ought to be interesting…'

Natsuki hugs Hinata from behind. "Sorry to make you worry…"

"Where did you go?"

"I went to rescue one of my kin…Ginji, the silver fox."

Natsuki introduced the now small silver fox kit, but all of a sudden, Hinata and Sakura disappeared.

"So kawaii!" They say as the two kunoichi's hug/glomp the fox.

Everyone sweat drops.

'Oy, get these two off of me!'

'Sorry Ginji…'

"Well, let's move on, we need to get to the snow country. The fastest way is with that train."


The train ride was kind of boring, until a light rumbling reached the ears of the shinobi.

"Avalanche!"

Quickly, the shinobi exit the train, and do all that they can to stop the snow, to reveal kunai launchers which immediately start firing. The shinobi quickly duck and cover behind some rocks.

"How are we going to stop that?"

"With kunai knives tagged with an explosive note."

"Good idea!"

Natsuki throws a kunai tagged with an explosive note at the kunai launchers. "Kage kunai no jutsu!" The single kunai multiplies into 10, and they explode on impact. While the shinobi are fighting, the actress, Fujimi Yuki, went missing. Natsuki went to go look for her, and found her in a cave, with Ginji hot on her heels.

"Ano, Yuki, what are you doing here?"

"I shouldn't be going back, please let me die here."

"Why?"

'Forget what she's saying. There's a train coming, and I don't have enough strength to ride two people!'

'Nani?! Kuso!'

Without any warning, Natsuki grabs Yuki and starts running away with Ginji hot on her heels. A train goes chasing after them.

"You'll never be able to outrun the train!"

"Oh yeah? Just watch me, I'll save you, and I never go back on my word. That's my way of the ninja, my nindo!"

In a burst of chakra, Natsuki and Ginji speed up, slowly outrunning the train. Right when they makes it out of the cave, Natsuki dives behind a wall, just as the train exited, on a crash course with the kunai launchers!


The actress confessed that she was a real princess of the snow country. Kakashi reminices about his past, which had one event about her, and they leave.


They encountered the enemy ninja again, but their purpose was not to win, merely to distract. The princess was captured behind everyone's back, or so it seemed.

"Hey, where did Ginjitsune go?"

"Who? The silver fox? Wasn't she with you?"

"Nani?" 'Hey Ginji, where are you?' No response for a little, but then.

'I'm on that ship that just took the princess!'

'What? I'm on my way…'


Finding a way onto the ship, team 8 and team 7 split up to find the princess and the fox. However, Shikamaru found someone else, a three tailed cat hanyou.

"No way, it can't be!" 'If she is, I have to rescue her!'

Finding a way to bust though the cage, Shikamaru opened it, just as the hanyou woke up.

"Shikarita?"

"Haven't I told you to stop calling me that?"

"SHIKARITA-KUN!"

"Nevermind, it's too troublesome to argue with you, Hikaru Kiki." Before he can continue, he is glomped by Kiki.

"Get off of me!"

"What? Aren't you glad to see me after all these years?"

"Yeah…so when did you get captured?"

"When my whole family was massacred about a year ago. They captured me because I am a hanyou. They captured my pet wolf, Blade too!"

"Blade? I'll go see if I can find him."

"Take me with you Shikarita."

"Fine, can you walk?"

"Not yet, give me a piggyback ride, Shikarita-kun."

"Bah, how troublesome."

'I'm going to get you to stop saying that one of these days…' Thought the cat hanyou Kiki.


"Hey Shikamaru, who's that?"

"Oh her, this is Kiki, Hikaru Kiki. Kiki, the blond is Uzumaki Natsuki, and the other is Hyuga Hinata."

"Oh Natsuki-chan and Hina-chan! Nice to meet you."

"OK, now if you'll excuse me, I have to find my fox."

"And I need to find my wolf."


"There you are, Ginjitsune. Give me a minute and I'll bust you out."

Releasing her kitsune henge, she easily tore though the prison, only to be tackled by Ginji. Hinata shakes her head.


'Wow, that's a big wolf.' Thought Shikamaru. Indeed, the wolf named Blade was humongous, easily as big as Akamaru, and easily able to transport what looked like 1 person.

"I always knew that Blade was special, but I never imagined it to grow like that!" 'I thought that he would grow up to be like 8 feet tall or something. I should try to communicate with him.' "Blade?" Kiki asked timidly.

'Speak in your mind, Kiki. Now, can you help me out? These stupid chakra and growth compressors are weakening me.'

"Ano, Shikarita? You might want to step back."

Tearing through the cage easily, she (Kiki) steps up to her pet wolf and removes the chakra and growth suppressers. About 5 seconds afterwards, Blade starts growing. Shikamaru stares, slack jawed at the now 8 feet tall wolf, easily able to ride up to three people.

'Maybe I overdid it?'

'You think? Shrink down so that I can carry you.'


Team 7 found the princess, in the clutches of a snow ninja in chakra armor, holding a dagger to her heart.

"Why must we do it this way? Just give me the crystal and I'll spare your life."

"Never! I'd rather kill myself!"

"Have it your way."

"Princess, get back, so Kakashi and I can finish him off!"

Kakashi and Sasuke made three identical hand seals. 'Ox, hare, monkey…' Grasping their left hand with their right, they hold the left palm face down near the floor. Pretty soon, a visable sphere of blue chakra emitting the sounds of two thousand birds is focused into Kakashi's and Sasuke's hands.

"Chidori!"

"Raikiri!"

The captor releases the princess, and tries to stop the two jutsu. The two jutsu fizzle and die out, only to leave a barely noticable scratch mark on it. Then, he tossed them away to grab the princess again, but the princess stabs him with the dropped dagger, only to meet chain mesh. Suddenly, the princess leaps back to make way for Natsuki, who is falling from the sky, holding a rotating ball of blue flames.

"Fox fire! Rasengan guard breaker!"

The snow ninja is blown back, spinning, and crashes into a glass wall. The glass wall cracks, and shatters when the ninja is killed and falls to the floor, revealing a machine.

'Could it be?' The princess hesitantly steps up to the machine. 'It is! I wonder if the legends are true.'

She inserts her crystal necklace into the machine. It powers up, and snow country becomes instead of a country of snow, a country of spring.

"CUT!"

Everyone sweat drops, because they forgot the director was there.

-Meanwhile-

"Aren't you happy that my clan agreed with your clan that if one of our clans were massacred, that any survivors of either of our clans will become a sibling of his/her generation in the other clan."

"What the? Temari will not be pleased…or maybe she will. Anyway, this is such a drag…"

-Somewhere in Sunakagure-

Temari sneezes, then gets a feeling that Shikamaru just gained a siblng, a sister.

'How dare he! Ah forget it, no harm in having a younger sister..lucky bastard.'


Arriving back in Konoha, Asuma and Kakashi head to the Hokage tower to report a job well done, while team 7 splits up. Kiba tries to ask someone out.

'Now that Naruto's gone, now's my chance!'

"Hey Hinata, now that Naruto's gone, would you like to go out with me?"

Shikamaru has to use his shadow to trap an enraged Natsuki, but he doesn't know why.

"No, no thank you. I'm already seeing someone else."

"Who?" 'I'll kill that bastard for stealing HER from me…'

"Natsuki-hime."

Natsuki blushes slightly for being referred to as a princess.

"Ey, what about Natsuki?"

"I'm seeing her…"

"What?" Asked Shikamaru, Kiba, and Kiki, while Akamaru, Blade, and Ginjitsune looked shocked.


Both Natsuki and Hinata had just stepped out of the shower, when the door bell rang.

'Who could that be?' Thought Natsuki, as she dressed and opened the door.

"Can I help you Kiki?"

"Shikarita w told me that you two could give me a place to sleep, seeing as he is gone. I have a question for you, fox girl."

"What? How did you know?"

"I can see through your kitsune henge Natsuki-chan. And I also see your real identity, Uzumaki Naruto."

"Can you not tell anyone about that?"

"Hmm, I was planning on telling Shikarita when he gets home…"

"Let us tell him. As a member of our team, he deserves to know, Asuma-sensei too."

"All right, fox girl, well, Shikarita told me to ask you two if I could stay the night. No one is home."

"Sure Kiki. Be our guest."

"Thanks."

"Ano, we only we one bed, which means that either we sleep on the couch, or you, but…"

"But nothing, I'm used to sleeping on the floor. The couch isn't bad, better then the floor."


"Shikamaru, Asuma-sensei, I have something to tell you, concerning my real identity."

"It's not my business to know, tell your superior, Shikamaru. You have a new team mate, Kiki, so you have no need for me." Asuma disappears.

"Well, Natsuki, you have something to tell the group?"

"Well, Hinata and Kiki already know, so I guess that I'll have to tell you about who I really am. Shikamaru, do you remember when I was so angry at Kiba the other day. Well, one of those reasons is not really important. I was P.M.Sing, but the other reason is that, Uzumaki Naruto is not dead or missing. In fact, you have been in contact with him, or should I say her, since you joined team 8. I am not really Uzumaki Naruto's twin. I am Uzumaki Naruto."

"That doesn't change my opinion on you. You are still the sweet boy, er I mean girl, that I have always known."

"There's one other thing that I'll tell you in private, when there are no eavesdroppers around."


"All right, Kiki, show me all of the jutsu that you know, then use this paper to find out your chakra element."

Kiki demonstrated with various jutsu (Will be revealed later) and tested to have the fire element.

"Good, if I can get him to agree, Sasuke can teach you all about fire jutsu, although there is always Kakashi…"


"No." SLAM Sasuke shut the door in Shikamaru's face. He was about to go to Kakashi's house when he remembered that he doesn't know where it is.

'Bah, how troublesome…' Shikamaru had barely finished the thought when a puff of smoke announces Kakashi's entrance.

"Yo."

"Ah Kakashi, just the jounin that I was looking for…"

"What were you looking for me for?"

"So that you could teach my new sister, or my new student, and the newest genin, some fire jutsu. Fire is her element."

"Why can't Sasuke do that?"

"He slammed the door in my face."

"Oh, well I'll teach her, if we have no missions for team 7."

"Thank you, I appreciate it."

"Tell her to meet me at training grounds 7 at 6:00 AM tommorow."

'I would, if I didn't know that you are always late, so I'll tell her to meet you around 8:30.'

Some of you may have believed that this is a rewrite of Naru: Kitsune Tales. Eventually, it most likely will be, but for now, this will be a completely original female Naruto fanfiction. Hope that everyone will enjoy. I already got some reviewers that do. R and R. Laterz.
