Chapter 3
Naruto looked at her now healing cheeks in the bathroom mirror. It's been a week and she was to finally return to school. The cuts were deep enough to need at least four stitches in each. Naruto's eyes water when she remembered that these cuts will scare. Angry that they had done this to her just because she was different, Naruto went into her closet. She grabbed the push up bra Kiba gave her for a joke at Christmas, she sighed at how it uncomfortably pushed her boobs up to look a size larger. She threw on a light blue blouse her mother got her for her birthday last year. It was a simple girlish V-knack blouse that showed a little of her cleavage line, with no design. Then Naruto went to the one thing she hated, the little jean skirt her aunt had bought her last summer. Disgusted at how short the skirt was, she grabbed some leggings. Leaving her closet she walked over to her vanity table. Naruto put of some light blue eye shadow and applied black eyeliner along her water line. Next she added some light peach lip gloss. Okay, good, so far. Naruto thought taking a deep breath. She then pulled her hair out on the ponytail she originally had it up in. Naruto brushed her hair until it felt soft and silky. Considering herself done, she grabbed a pair of heeled ankle boots.
Kushina was more than surprise to see her daughter, well look like a daughter. She knew her daughter was a pretty girl and hated seeing that go to waste with her sports and boyish ways.
Minato on the other hand was surprised in a completely different way. He knew that this outfit was only because of the serious bullying that took place a week ago. Minato always like his daughters 'I don't care, I am who I am.' attitude when it came to life. He never expected for his hard headed daughter to give into the social norms. He always thought she was too good for the status quo. He didn't say anything knowing it was only going to be a phase, and went back to reading the paper.
"Mom, Dad I'm leaving." Naruto awkwardly fidgeted under the stares she was getting from her mother.
"Have a nice day honey, you look beautiful." Kushina told her daughter as calm as she could.
"The principal will be calling you and the other kid involved in this 'incident' to the office sometime this week. Have a good day sweetie." Minato waved to his daughter before folding the paper and turning to leave to his office.

Surprise crossed his face. I could swear he just saw Naruto Uzumaki in a skirt, but that couldn't be right. Since when was she a girl? And a cutie at that. She a long legs and a killer figure, probably from all the sports she plays. She had swag in her walk that he had never noticed before. Yes, she was sexy. Neji Hyuuga wondered to himself. He watched after her and decide she'll make perfect arm candy. Neji had a small smirk on his face as he watched the junior walk out of sight, he already had a plan.
Naruto felt everyone stare at her as she walked down the halls. She was dressed like any other slut that walked the halls of Kingston, so why where they all staring at her? Then the wolf whistles started. Blushing from the attention she half ran, the best she could in these shoes, to her locker. She swore to herself, why the hell she talked herself into this. She fumbled with her lock, taking about four times just to get the combo right. She opened her locker when Suigetsu and Kiba walked over to her.
"Damn girl!" Kiba said with a devilish smile on his face.
"Ummm, what brought... this on?" Suigetsu said also taking a one over her.
"Proving to those bitches I'm hotter than them, even with my new facial features " Naruto said in a sassy voice grabbing her calculus books.
"You win hands down, girl why have you been hiding that body?" Kiba asked chuckling.
"SHUT UP YOU HENTAI!" Naruto yelled punching him in the arm.
"Man, you still hit hard." Kiba said rubbing his abused arm.
"Dude just because she is dressed more girly today doesn't mean she got all weak and crap." Suigetsu said. "So this is only plan one of your revenge right?"
"Who said anything about getting revenge?" Naruto asked shutting her locker door.
"Girl, you gotta be kidding?" Kiba said as she walked pass him.
"I don't see how I could gain anything from revenge." Naruto said looking at him with her innocent blue eyes. "Plus me getting revenge isn't going to solve anything, it'll just bring me as low as them."
"She's gotta point." Suigetsu said.
"I still say you shouldn't just let them walk all over you." Kiba looked at her seriously. She was like a little sister to him and he loved her dearly, watching her get beat on and crap just boiled his blood.
"Ah, Hell-OO!' She said waving her hand up and down in front of herself. "What do you think this is?"
"A prostitute?" Suigetsu said as he pulled his phone out to read a message from Sasuke and Naruto smiled.
"That's what I was aiming for." She giggled before heading to class.

Neji walked over to his spot beside Sasuke in chemistry. "So you know Naruto Uzumaki right?" Neji asked in a bored voice, he had to play his cards right.
"Not well, but yeah." Sasuke said looking him over speciously.
"Well you see I've wanted to ask her out for a while now, but I never get the chance to talk to her." Neji said and Sasuke's face looked indifferent.
"And?" Sasuke ask bored.
"Well I was hoping you could introduce me to her." Neji asked and Sasuke sighed debating this for a minute.
"And why should I?" Sasuke then asked.
"Because, we're friends." Neji said and Sasuke looked at him. This fact was true they have been friend ever since their families combined there companies.
"Fine, I'll do it at lunch, but I swear if you do anything to hurt her I'll do unspeakable things to you." Sasuke said as the teacher walked in.
Neji smirked, this was working out wonderfully. Don't worry Sasuke I won't do anything to little cute Naru-Chan she won't like. Neji devilishly thought to himself before deciding on paying attention to the front board.
Sasuke found this all to be a little too strange. Neji never went after the girls that had a head on their shoulders. Sasuke eyed his friend sitting beside him. "What's with the sudden interest in Naruto? Something didn't sit right with Sasuke. Neji suddenly has an interest in Naruto one week after the girls cut her face at hell. Sasuke prayed this isn't something they put him up to. Sasuke then decided he would introduce the two and keep a careful eye on them. Sasuke knew he would have to get Kiba and Suigetsu to help him. Sasuke pulled out his phone.
'Hey keep an eye on Ino, Sakura, Karin, and Neji. I think they are up to something.' Sasuke sent it to Suigetsu and almost instantly he replied.
'Kay, I'll also get Kiba in one it, he'll be pissed if we leave him out.' Sasuke smiled and didn't bother to reply. Until he received the next text. 'By the way have you seen Naru-Chii today, she looks smoking.' Sasuke raised his eye brow.
"She looks smoking?" Sasuke asked confused. Did he mean her cuts where healing nicely?
"Just wait and see." Suigetsu replied leaving Sasuke curious.

Naruto giggled and flirted with some of the guy in her calculus class, but only because Sakura and Ino where in her class. Naruto made sure to have a piece of gum in her mouth before she walked into the classroom just so she could snap it. For some reason the guys seemed to enjoy her snapping her gum and she continued. She was glad she had Kakashi first thing this morning because he was always late. She could tell her annoying flirting was getting Suigetsu and Kiba's nerves, but she knew they understand. She wasn't going to get physical revenge, no, Naruto just wanted to show those slut bags she could be just as 'attractive' as they were. Naruto didn't think the way you dressed had anything to do with anything, but now she knew that looks where everything and it sickened her. Most of them went to their seats because Kakashi was 'due' to show up in a few guy who sat beside her decided to strike up a conversion.
"Naru-Chii-" Naruto died a little on the inside hearing this stranger use Kiba's and Suigetsu's nickname for her. "Who knew you had that hiding under the tomboy?" The guy said staring at her tits.
"Yeah well, heh,heh,heh, it's funny huh?" She giggled pushing her loss hair behind her ear.
"Yeah, why you been holding out on us?" the other said.
"All good things come to those who wait, I guess?" Naruto said uncomfortable.
"Yeah why don't you try looking at her face instead of her tits before I do something about?" Suigetsu said from her right. She smiled in relief at Suigetsu. She could tell today was going to be a long day.
"Why should he stop, when she clearly put on that shirt to get them some attention?" Ino said bitter laughing.
"You're jealous because I have something to fill out my shirt without stuffing." Naruto said clicking her tongue at the end of her sentence.
"What I do not stuff!" Ino shirked.
"Plus only stuffer's say shit like that anyways." Sakura said opening her calculus books.
"I don't know, these seem pretty real to me, what about you Suigetsu?" Naruto said cupping her tits with her hands.
"Nicer then the nothing they have." Suigetsu said amused by Naruto's behaviour.
"WHAT!" The two girls yelled.
"Ino, Sakura if you don't turn away and quite screaming I'll send you to the office." Kakashi said walking into the room. He was a little surprised at Naruto's attire, but quickly recovered and started teaching the class.

Lunch rolled around and Naruto has gotten tons love letter from people she has never heard of. Now she knew how Sasuke felt, no one wanted him for him just his good looks and money, only difference she wasn't rich. Naruto bit her lip and walked over to where Kiba and Suigetsu where sitting with Sasuke and Neji. Naruto blushed, she would never admit it, but she always had a crush on Neji ever since her first year when he told off some guys for her. Naruto took a deep breath and took a seat beside Sasuke. She giggled a little at Sasuke's face.
"It's rude to stare you know?" Naruto said and Sasuke sobered.
"So, what brought this on?" Sasuke asked and noted her cuts seemed to have healed a lot since the last time he saw her.
"Ahh, things." She blushed because she noticed that Neji was looking at her. Self cautiously she tucked her hair behind her ear. Sasuke noticed her blushing and looking at Neji, this is curious.
"Naruto, this is my friend Neji. Neji, this is the girly Naruto." Sasuke said smirking as Naruto hit him lightly in the arm.
"Teme, that's not nice!" She yelled then blushed at her outburst.
"Girl, I could have told you Uchiha's an ass." Kiba said with his mouth half full.
"Would you stop calling me 'Girl' I don't like it and it's getting my fucking nerves" Naruto said hatefully.
"Awe, Naru-Chii don't be like that now, his IQ is so low you're lucky he even knows you're a girl." Suigetsu said smiling.
"Suigetsu has a point." Sasuke added.
"Yeah, I'll remember you all when I throw a party after our game tomorrow." Kiba with a pout.
"Sounds fun." Naruto said, she loved to party.
"So you want to go with me?" Neji spook for the first time. Naruto was totally caught off guard she blushed, so many emotions swell through her.
"S-sure." Smooth she thought to herself. She noted everyone but Neji look at each other with serious expressions. "Let's play the truth game." She chirped.
"Where did that came from?" Suigetsu asked never getting use to her randomness.
"Sounds fun I'll go first.' Kiba said. "Neji, why would someone like you ask out my lil'Naru-Chii?"
"Because I've been meaning for a while now, actually I saved her, her first day of high school from some jerks, but never got to talk to her after that." Naruto smiled so he did remember her. "Naruto, have you ever been on a date before?" Neji asked and she blushed.
"No," Her lack of romantic history was embarrassing. Neji smiled this is even better than he expected.
"Umm, Sasuke, what type of girls are you actually interested in?" Naruto said and Sasuke looked at her.
"Girls like you, seeing as you're the only girl I can stomach." Sasuke said and Naruto looked at him, she didn't expect that.
"Suigetsu, didn't you just ask Naru out last Friday?" Sasuke asked watching her expression.
"Yeah so?" Suigetsu had a habit of answering questions with questions. They continued until the bell rung.

Naruto was running late for her physics class. She had grabbed the wrong text book and had to run all the way back to the other side of the school.
"Hey wait." She heard a quiet voice call out to her.
"Uh, yeah?" She turned around.
"My name is Haku I was the one who found you in the washroom last week." Haku explained, she looked girly enough but there was also something boyish about her.
"I'm Naruto and thank you. We should totally hang out sometime." Naruto said about to turn then it hit her. "Wait are you a girl or a guy, I'm sorry I know that must sound stupid." Naruto said and Haku let out a light laugh.
"I'm biologically male, but I'm in the middle of transitioning into and girl." Naruto blinked at Haku like her had four heads.
"You're transitioning?" Naruto asked clearly confused.
"Yes, it's a long process. I'm transgender, it's kind of like being born into the wrong body so now my doctors are helping me get the right body." Haku explained.
"Wait, can that work for girls wanting to turn into guys?" Naruto asked.
"Yes, it's a slightly different process, but pretty much the same thing I'm going through." Haku said.
"Okay let me get this straight, you're a girl, but you have a dick?" Naruto asked interested.
"For now yes, some correctional surgery and more female hormones and I'll be just a girl." Haku giggled.
"Uh-huh, we'll defiantly finish this conversion later; right now I'm late for class." Naruto said with a wave before running down the hall towards her locker. Naruto felt excitement go through her; she'll definitely be looking into this. Then she remembers the broken face her mother had when she told her she wanted to be a boy. Naruto slowed to a walk when she thought of how the others would take to her changing genders. The bullying she would have to endure. She's have to wait until after high school, but no later and still going to get as much info on this as possible from Haku. Naruto sighed, wishing that she was just born male.
