A:N Well I'm back. Which is weird, a bit over a month for an update? I must be sick. Oh well on with the chapter! Though I should warn you, I'll be doing…things in this chapter some people coughFLAMERScough will NOT be happy about. So if you're halfway through this chapter and you suddenly become disgusted with it. Relax take a deep breath. Have some Earl Grey. Keep reading to the end, then read my Authors Notes where I'll lull you into a false sense of relaxation with my smooth words.

Blooming Flower: Chapter 3 Rebirth
She ran. She ran and ran. She weaved her way through the legs of unsuspecting tourists, past the glaring faces of performers, musicians, shopkeepers. And past the cold eyes of shinobi. The villagers' eyes nearly flamed with hate anytime they saw her, but those flames would disappear whenever someone was looking. A shinobi's eyes never stopped. Whenever she was outside she could feel them burning into her, even in her apartment she could feel them glaring from the shadows. She had learned long ago to stay away from dark alleys when she could feel those eyes.
'Is it true? Am I Kyuubi? Everything would make so much sense. NO! I AM NOT KYUUBI I NEVER HAVE BEEN AND I NEVER WILL BE!'
She could see the Hokage's Tower in the distance, bathed in red, blue and green festival lights. She was almost there four floors up and into the Hokage's Office then she would be safe. Safe. That word always left a bitter taste in her mouth. This was her home SHE should be safe EVERYWHERE! No the Sandaime said not to get angry that they would understand someday. But if she was Kyuubi how could they possibly understand?
Her skin prickled, the hairs on the back of her neck rising. No, not the third type of eyes. The villagers' blazing eyes she could ignore, the shinobi's cold eyes hurt but she never let it show, but the third group of eyes, the ones that looked around her, the ones that looked through her like she didn't exist, those hurt the most. Right down to her soul. At least when they glared at her she knew her life had purpose, even if it was just a receiver for all that hate. But those eyes that looked through her, they never acknowledged her, they never acknowledged her dreams, skills…existence. And if people didn't acknowledge her existence what point was there in existing. No she would MAKE them acknowledge her, by any means neccesa-
'BAM'
Groaning Naruko looked up, the doors to the Hokage's Tower.
She looked to the side, ground, lots of it. And she felt her forehead, big bump. She remembered talking to Sakura and Ino, the punch, that ANBU member telling her she was Kyuubi, weaving in between people's legs running towards the Hokage's Tower, then…nothing. Her memory was completely gone. Naruko took a deep breath and relaxed, this wasn't the first time she had had memory problems, Sandaime had said this happened quite a bit to her, she didn't know how he knew that but she trusted him. Shakily standing up, she rubbed her bump one more time, and slowly pushed open the door, entering the silent tower.
Keepreadingkeepreadingkeepreadingkeepreadingkeepreadingkeepreadingkeepreading
The Hokage made his way through the crowd, shaking hands as he went. Rubbing his wrist he sighed. His wrist hadn't hurt this much since the first and last time he had done a seventy two hour paperwork marathon. Quietly he slipped away from his ANBU guards into a dark alley, then started running towards his tower. He still had two hours left before he had to read this years speech so he might as well go to his office and drink some sake. And start reading Jiraiya's new book. Giggling like a little schoolgirl he ran to his little orange book.
Five minutes and three avoided ANBU patrols later
Sandaime stopped in front of the tower. Something was wrong. The door wasn't completely closed. He had left it closed, and any ANBU that had a reason to enter would have gone through the third story window. So whoever did this was either extremely inexperienced or extremely arrogant. Neither explanation made him feel much better. He let a kunai hidden in a secret pouch in his sleeve fall into his hands and stealthily entered his tower.
'Dark' was his first thought. 'Quiet' was his next. He looked around casting an expert eye across the floor. Nothing had been moved or was out of place. Not surprising really this was only the reception area. The intruder was probably on the third or fourth floor, possibly on the second. After looking over everything again just to be sure, he sped upstairs.
Second floor. Mission request storage, Mission briefing room for genin teams, solo genin, and low level chunin, and storage for said teams for when they went on long term missions. He quickly glanced into the mission storage room. The shelves of mission requests and a short term record of completed missions. Once again nothing seemed out of place but he would have a couple genin teams go through the records and make sure nothing was missing. Now for the last two floors.
Third floor. Briefing room for high level chunin and jounin. Storage for those teams as well as the secondary ANBU base. The main ANBU base was located in a separate building somewhere in Konoha, for security reasons even he didn't know its location and every time they dismissed even one member the location would be moved. He would have to take his time on this floor the lockers could have important documants and as for the mission recor-
CREAK
Wait that had come from his office! So that's were the intruder was! Damn this was trouble besides a small reception area his office took up the entire floor. It had scrolls listings high level techniques, mission requests ranking S, and the short term mission reports of ANBU operatives before they were moved to the base for storage. This intruder obviously knew exactly what he was looking for.
He rushed upstairs, ran to the right of the main doors for about 7 feet and pushed the wall away revealing a secret passage into his office. 'This is it I run in and capture the intruder then they can enjoy a nice long time with Ibiki. Yes Ibiki would enjoy that his work was his pleasure.' Taking another deep breath, he rushed though the genjutsu disguised exit to the passage and leapt towards where he sensed the other person, arm extending to slash out the leg muscles. And he froze. Laying there in the middle of his office floor was a blond girl, tears running down her cheeks. Oh…only Naruko.
Sarutobi sighed, quietly pocketing hid kunai. Naruko collapsed, crying on his floor. The Kyuubi festival. It didn't take a genius, which he was, to figure out what happened. He could only hope that whatever or whoever did this hadn't opened their mouth to much and spoilt his masterpiece.
Yes his masterpiece, he had always liked the girl but she was more then that. She was a weapon. The war on Iwa followed by the Kyuubi's attack, Konoha was still strong but it had never quite recovered form those two catastrophic events. That was what Naruko was for to even the balance, cover for the dead. His first idea had been for Naruko to be entered into the ANBU training program, turned into an emotionless weapon. But after witnessing the borderline psychos the program had 'made' he cancelled the program. So instead she was to live a sheltered controlled life. A life where her loyalty to Konoha would never be thought about it would be instinct. Time for some damage control.
"Naruko, what happened? No one hurt you did they? They didn't…try to kill you?"
"H-h-hokahe-s-sam-ma?" She sniffed loudly. "No they didn't, they didn't try to hurt me."
"Then why are you crying little one?"
"ANBU-san he said, he said, HE SAID I WAS KYUUBI. I'M NOT KYUUBI AM I HOKAGE-SAMA? But I keep… seeing fights…were I have tails and I kill people over and over. But that wasn't me was it? No I can't be Kyuubi…can I?"
'Oh shit. Shitty shitty shit. This is bad, how did Kyuubi break through her seals mental defenses? It must be the doubt in herself, the belief she could be Kyuubi. And he didn't know how long ago this had happened it could've been two minutes or two hours. A Memory Removal Jutsu would be two risky and it might not even work. Their effects seemed to have decreased recently, maybe a resistance? No this wasn't the time every second Kyuubi was in contact with her mind the chances of insanity increased. He couldn't risk that, he didn't have a choice. He would have to use Plan 9.
Smiling he put a grandfatherly hand on Naruko's shoulder. And squeezed the pressure point there as hard as he could. The last thing she saw before blacking out was the Hokage's sad eyes.
oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no
The Hokage was down in the basement of his tower, Naruko over his shoulder, spreading some blood from his thumb over a kanji on the wall that read 'Fire'. The kanji glowed and the blood-genjutsu over it ended revealing the sealing room. The room where chakra could not be sensed from the outside, undetectable to Sharingan and Byakugan, it didn't even show up in the building blueprints. This room was where Plan 9 would be initiated. He lifted Naruko onto a table positioned in the center of the room and strapped her legs and arms down. A couple hands seals and one Ribaibaru no Jutsu
And Naruko's eyes fluttered open.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING? LET ME GO!!!" she shouted, tugging at her restraints.
"I'm sorry Naruko, but you are too valuable to the village. I'm going to have to ensure your loyalty. In a very painful way unfortunately."
"Valuable? Why am, I-I'm really Kyuubi aren't I?"
"No not at all. But you do have access to its powers." Reaching to a small table beside him the Hokage pulled up a syringe.
"Naruko this jutsu I'm going to use on you will cause incredible pain. But if you faint from it the jutsu will distort. So this stimulant will keep you awake…no matter the pain. I'm sorry, but don't worry you get a nice body out of this I promise." The Hokage started making seals, almost to fast to see.
"N-N-Noooo p-please don-."
" Shinteki Kousei no jutsu " shouted the Hokage pressing a hand against the girl's forehead.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
Naruko's skin started to ripple like water, her body bucking, her screams getting louder and louder till her throat was raw, and she screamed in silence.
'This is weird Nidaime's notes on the technique said it would only take a couple minutes and this had taken at least five. Something is going wrong.'

Pain! So much pain! She tried to shut off the feelings, become so detached that it was like she was a different person watching a little girl get beat. But it didn't work, she wasn't tired enough something was keeping her awake and aware of the pain. She searched deeper anything to get away from the pain, and that was where she found it, deep inside her, something that felt like chakra. It felt like it was in her stomach she realized, and in her mind she could feel it pulsing inviting her in, away from the pain. Sighing in relief she mentally sunk into the red chakra-thing, letting go of the pain, letting go of her worries, letting go of everything.

Sarutobi felt the chakra spike and watched in amazement as a red aura surrounded Naruko. 'Damn Kyuubi is interfering with the transformation. But that aura is probably protecting her. I'll just have to watch and prepare to fight.'
Naruko body was growing dimmer inside the aura, until it completely disappeared and all he could see was a red human shaped chakra shell. It glowed brighter and brighter, until Sarutobi had to cover his eyes and then the light disappeared and Naruko's chakra levels dropped to what for her was normal. He watched as the seal, glowing brightly, sucked the last bit of the Kyuubi's chakra inside, changed back to its inky black appearance, and then slowly faded away. He let out a breath he didn't know he was holding it was over. The only thing he could do now was look over the damage.
He stepped forward and inspected Naruko's body. Her now pale porcelain skin shone with sweat. 'Probably from channeling Kyuubi seems it strains her body' he mused. Her features seemed a little finer then he intended but it was no problem. Her hair was now pitch black instead of the brown he intended and it appeared to have a reddish sheen about it, and judging from the bone structure straining against her skin she appeared to be closer to what Anko or Kurenia would have been at this age instead of the willow-thin frame he had hoped for. Still none of this would change his plan at least that was his thoughts until he checked her eyes. He sighed, now THAT would change things.
Naruko's eyes glared back at him, instead of the original blue iris a purple one stared back, and instead of the normal round pupil one shaped like a diamond sat in her eye shrinking and growing as it adjusted to the low light.
A.N: Diamond as in the suit of cards not the kind that go on rings

Pain. That was all she could remember. Even now it ached from every inch of her body ached with it. But it was strange something was different. Her body, it felt…different. Heavy in places where it used to be light some things bigger others smaller. She wearily moved her tongue around her mouth, even her teeth felt different. And then someone lifted her eyelid, it took a couple of seconds but her eye focused to the light and she could see. There the Hokage staring at her, and she looked down at herself and screamed in silence once again. Her body was different! What had he done to her? Nothing made sense anymore; her more trusted person had done this to her, she thought he had cared for her, but apparently he didn't he only wanted to use the Kyuubi's power. Nothing made sense. She glared at him and forced words through her torn raw throat.
"I…H…hate..y-you."
"I know" was all he said. "But you won't remember."
'What?'
He started another set of seals.

" TOGIRETOGIRE OMOIDE NO JUTSU "
Naruko's bright purple eyes lost the bright light that showed intelligent thought; now they were just…blank. Sarutobi waved a hand in front of her eyes, they neither focused on her hand nor followed is movement. Perfect. He quickly performed the last jutsu that was required for Plan Nine.
" OMOIDE CORA-JU NO JUTSU "
Naruko's diamond pupils shrunk to pinpricks, shaking like she was having a seizure. Her face started sweating again, and she strained against the restraints. Then she slumped, clearly unconscious, and her eyes closed.
"It's finished. Uzumaki Naruko is no more, all that remains is Mukizu Naiya."
CHAPTER END
A.N: Well if that doesn't get people flaming I don't know what will. Anyway have no fear Naiya will NOT BE A MARY-SUE. This is just a different approach on the smarter, darker type of Naruto/Naruko. Anyway you might have noticed I did not include translations that is because I have started a new section called Ninja Info where I will include translations and info on any jutsu that is original or new. I'll also list any info I think will be helpful to you the reader.
NINJA INFO
Name: Shiki Fūjin,
Type: S-rank, Offensive
Creator: Yondaime Hokage
When performed, this jutsu ends the lives of both the target and the user. Using this jutsu invokes the powers of the Death God (Shinigami), which hovers behind the user. Upon being summoned, the Death God reaches its arm into the summoner. The summoner can then use the arm to tear the soul from their intended target. Once the soul is taken, the Death God devours them both, locking the two souls in an eternal battle. This jutsu can also be performed through clones, though the user's soul will be sealed, regardless.
Taken from Wikipedia -with some changes
Kyuubi's Seal: Taken from Yondaime's notes non-canon. Refer to chapter 1.
The seal while simple in design, is infinite in its complexities. Using your own life to make the seal and lock it, it is to date the most effective fro sealing the Biju. A Biju's very chakra is destructive so it had the unfortunate effect of eroding any seal that is used on it. While this seal does not stop this effect it slows it down by using the own Biju's chakra to power and protect the seal. It also draws the Biju's chakra to heal any injury or attack physical threats like sicknesses. The Kyuubi can either slow down or speed up this healing factor by using its own chakra but since this does require chakra it is doubtful the Kyuubi will ever do this. The major drawback of this seal's design is the delayed reaction in the full sealing. It is designed for sealing in babies, making the chakra coils around the seal into a 'home' for the Biju. This is quite painful. That added onto the fact that sealing Kyuubi requires complete concentration and enormous chakra results in the fact that sealing it into yourself or an adult is impossible. Though it should work fine with human souls.
Stimulants are drugs that increase alertness and wakefulness. In addition to stimulating the central nervous system, most stimulants also increase the activity of the sympathetic nervous system and produce a sense of euphoria. Stimulants can be used as recreational drugs or therapeutic drugs to increase alertness. They are also used and sometimes abused to boost endurance and productivity as well as to suppress appetite. Examples of common stimulants include nicotine, caffeine, amphetamines, cocaine, Ritalin and ecstasy, as well as other drugs referred to by the slang term "uppers". The most commonly abused stimulants are amphetamines and cocaine.
The stimulant used in this chapter will remain unnamed but lets just say it only exists in the Naruto-verse.
Ribaibaru no Jutsu REVIVAL JUTSU Original
Original Creator: Tsunade
Range: Arm Reach
Rank: C
Type: Medical, Non-Offensive
By placing your hand on the forehead of an unconscious person using tendrils of chakra to massage the brain awakening said person.
Shinteki Kousei no jutsu PHYSICAL REBIRTH JUTSU Original
Original Creator: Nidaime Hokage
Range: 0-5m
Rank: A
Type: Espionage, Non-Offensive
Konoha's 'ultimate' henge, It is only known to the Hokage and a select few medi-nins. This Jutsu requires enormous knowledge of the human body, as you are rewriting the subject's very DNA and thus their appearance. In your mind you visualize what you want the subject to look like at their current age, and what they should look like by each 10 birthday i.e. If you are 8 like Naruko what they should look like at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, and 100. If 16 it would only be 20 and up. At the age of 100 you revert back to your original form. And because the DNA/Appearance is artificially created it is hard to change your form. You gain weight but its nearly impossible to get fat.
TOGIRETOGIRE OMOIDE NO JUTSU BROKEN MEMORIES JUTSU original
Original Creator: Sandaime Hokage/ Yuuhi Kurenia
Range:0-5m
Rank: A
Type: Mental
A misnamed memory altering jutsu, It can either remove certain memories or completely seal all personal memories that person contains. I.e. They can read but they can't remember where or how they learned. The first form of the jutsu can be used many times but it will eventually result in mental damage. The second form removes all mental damage caused by the first form, but it places the recipient in a comatose state. After 5 minutes in this state mental damage begins and by 10 minutes you are the equal of a brain-dead vegetable. This effect is only reversible by using OMOIDE CORA-JU NO JUTSU. With enough stimuli this memory seal can break and original memories will return.
OMOIDE CORA-JU NO JUTSU MEMORY COLLAGE JUTSU original
A:N Collage a picture made of many tiny little pictures or colors.
College school after High School.
Original Creator: Sandaime Hokage/ Yuuhi Kurenia
Range:0-5m
Rank: A
Type: Mental
The only known reversal of the second stage of the Broken Memories Jutsu, you mentally have a new past, a new life for the receive. The more details included, the more realistic the life and the easier the mind accepts the story. Of course every little detail cannot be included so the mind fills in the mental 'gaps'. When the mind is receiving this information the pupils shrink and begin shaking as if in a seizure.
WELL THAT'S IT FOR NOW. IF NEW INFORMATION FOR THESE JUTUS COMES IN THROUGHOUT THE STORY I WILL BE ADDING IT HERE NOT IN THAT NEW CHAPTER. UNTIL LATER JA NE!
PS: REVIEW
