Naruko Pov
On my way home I met Itachi. I remembered I hadn't really met him yet in this timeline.
'Be careful Kit, he might tell Danzo if something happens' I rolled my eyes. Kurama was so overprotective!
'Like what?' Itachi didn't show any sign of talking so therefore I started the conversation.
"Hello! I'm Naruko Uzumaki! What's your name?" I smiled at him and he smiled back.
"Nice to meet you Naruko-chan, my name is Itachi Uchiha" His voice was very kind. Was he really capable of killing his own clan? I know it was on orders but even so.
"Oh! You are Temes brother right? How do you survive with him?" Itachi chuckled.
"Oh? You really think so? He isn't so bad once you get used to him." I know Itachi loved his brother, so thinking how he must have suffered when he pretended to hate him made me feel a lot of empathy.
"Bah! All he does is calling me Dobe and pretending to know everything! You seem so much nicer!" I scoffed and crossed my arms. Itachi just smiled.
"I have to go now, I'm going to have a party for my friends!" I shined up at the thought of having a party. I never had one when I was a kid since I wasn't really friends with anyone.
"I guess Sasuke is not included?" Itachi asked. I looked with disbelief at him.
"Of course not! It's an all-girl party!" I waved goodbye and started heading home.
Itachi Pov
'Oh, I see.' I chuckled. This could be fun.
I made my way to the Uchiha compound.
"Hello father, have you seen Sasuke?"
"Itachi, welcome home. I believe he is at the pond." I thanked father and started to walk to the pond. I did a few hand signs and transformed to a girl, looking like Naruko's mom. Blond, with whisker marks and cute.
"You are Sasuke right?" He turned around and looked at me.
"Yes. And who are you? What do you want?" I looked at him and shook my head.
"Man, you need to learn some manners! Anyways, I'm Naruko's mom and she asked me to invite you." He stared in disbelief.
"Invite? To what? She doesn't even like me!" I chuckled. I didn't know if she did like him or not but playing matchmaker between those two would be fun.
"To her party of course! It's tonight at 8pm. I have already invited everyone else; you are the last on the list." I looked at him with an amused face. He looked like he believed me!
"Fine. Tell her I'll come. But why did she invite me?" I quickly thought up a lie.
"She specifically asked for me to invite you, but I don't know. Why don't you ask her?" I smiled at him and started to walk away. I shouted over my shoulder:
"Oh, and when you get there you better have some manners!" I shunshined away to a nearby roof and transformed back into my old self. Sadly I wasn't the one guarding her so I could watch but I could probably ask the Anbu that did watch her to tell me what happened.
Naruko Pov
I had prepared almost everything. I had put down 4 mattresses in my room so we could sleep, prepared the food and dressed up in new pajamas. The only thing missing was the girls. Just when I thought that I heard a knock on the door. I quickly went to the door and opened.
"Hi Naruko! Sorry if I'm a bit early, I just couldn't wait!" It was Sakura who came.
"Welcome! It's fine; I was just done preparing everything!" We hugged as a greeting. Just as we stopped hugging another knock was heard. I opened the door.
"Hi Hinata! I'm so happy you came!" I hugged her.
"I-It was n-nice of you t-to invite m-me"
"Hello Hinata!" Sakura exclaimed and hugged her too. This was going to be fun!
"HELLO? ANYONE HOME?" We heard someone scream from outside and at the same time a loud knocking. When I opened the door Ino and Tenten stood there and Ino looked like she was about to shout again.
"You don't need to scream, we heard you very well Ino-pig" Sakura said and chuckled.
"I told you they would hear if we just knocked!" Tenten shook her head at Ino.
"Whatever! How was I supposed to know? Let's just start." Ino pouted at us.
"Sure! Come on in!" I waited until everyone got inside and then I closed the door. I showed them where we would sleep, the bathroom and the kitchen.
"This is a pretty cool house Naruko!" Tenten complimented and smiled at me.
"Thanks! Jiji gave it to me after I moved out of the orphanage so the villagers won't hurt me."
"Really? How mean! You surely didn't do anything to them!" Sakura looked at me with a sad face.
"Nah, it's okay. Let's not talk about things that'll make us sad. Do you guys like onigiri?" Hinata instantly looked happy.
"O-Onigiri is r-really yummy." I went to fridge to get the prepared onigiri.
"Do you have any with plum?" Ino shouted from the bedroom.
"Of course!" I shouted back "I got plum, only salt, salmon, tuna and kelp."
After a few minutes of getting every onigiri on to a plate I went back to everyone. When I entered I stumbled on the doorstep and fell. Every onigiri stayed on the plate except one that fell on Ino.
"I'm sorry Ino! I forgot there was a doorstep!" I was the only one that looked concerned, everyone else was laughing. To be honest, she looked kind of funny with a rice ball in her face and a surprised look.
"It's okay Naruko, It was plum!" She started to eat it and everyone took their favorite kind.
"So what do you guys want to do? I'm not used to having pajamas parties." I asked them.
"How about a pillow fight? It's really awesome!" Tenten suggested.
"Sure! Let me just eat up my onigiri!" Sakura smiled and continued to eat her onigiri.
When everyone had eaten up I made sure everyone had a pillow and Tenten explained the rules.
"It is free for all so no teaming, if you say 'I surrender' then you're out. Last girl standing wins!"
"1, 2, 3 GO!" I counted down and everyone started beating each other and surprisingly also Hinata. Ino was the first one to surrender. Sakura had managed to get her down on the ground and when she realized that she couldn't shake off Sakura she surrendered.
I was in an intense battle with Tenten and Sakura was having a hard time against Hinata.
When Sakura surrendered I stopped for a bit in pure shock. Hinata was really good! Unfortunately that was my downfall. Tenten took her chance and tackled me to the ground with her pillow. I knew I wouldn't be able escape.
"I surrender!" Tenten let me go and I walked to the others so I could watch the final between Hinata and Tenten.
They looked like real ninjas when they circulated around each other. Tenten tried to hit Hinata from the left but Hinata quickly took one step back and then when Tenten was unbalanced she hit her in the head. To avoid another hit Tenten ducked and made a sweep with the pillow to Hinata's legs. Hinata fell but when Tenten tried to catch her she rolled to the side and jumped onto Tenten instead. Tenten struggled a bit until she realized she couldn't get free.
"And the winner is Hinata! Congrats!" I exclaimed and went to hug her.
"That was awesome! Hinata, you're amazing at pillow fights!" Tenten grinned and shook Hinata's hand. Ino and Sakura also congratulated her.
'Kit, someone is here.' When Kurama alerted me I tried to sense and I also found out that there was another spectator than the Anbu.
'Shit! Who is it Foxy?' Surprisingly Kurama laughed.
'It's that Uchiha brat that is in your class' Kurama just waited for my reaction.
'That fucking pervert! He is so going to get it! I'll make sure we girls discover him together.' The others stared at me and I realized that I had let my anger show on the outside.
"W-Why do you l-look so a-angry Naruko chan? Hinata stuttered out and the others looked like they wanted to know too. I tried to shake it away.
"Oh, it's nothing! I just remembered a thing from long time ago!" I scratched the back of my head. The girls went with it and started talking about the teachers in school.
'Now how shall I expose Sasgay?'
'Oh I know! Open the window and scream!'
'Please, I have to be tactic. I'll suggest hide and seek, then I'll pretend I'm going to hide near him and scream when I notice him!' Happy with my idea I joined their conversation.
"Mitsuki sensei is scary! I prefer Iruka!"
"Yeah Sakura, me too." Ino turned to Tenten. "What about you? Do you have the same teachers?"
"Yah, but Iruka sensei is my favorite too. Mitsuki always looks at you in that scary way!"
"Iruka is the best for me; he is one of my closest friends! And he always eats ramen with me!" I grinned at them. "How about we play some hide and seek? You can hide in here and not too far outside." Sakura lit up.
"Yay! Let's go girls! I'll be the seeker!" We quickly scattered around, I went outside and sneaked up on Sasuke.
"KYAAA! SASUKE IS SPYING ON US!" He jumped and turned around. He had a blush on his face and looked like he looking for an escape route. The girls quickly ran to me and stared at Sasuke.
"Why are you spying on us boy?" Tenten looked like she wanted a good answer or else she was going to beat him up.
"I-I um was going to join the party" Sasuke stammered out. Ino sneered.
"Yeah right, why would we invite YOU? It's an all-girls party!" He looked confused for a moment.
"B-But Naruko's mom invited me!" I felt how tears threatened to fall from my eyes. I was used to mom and dad being dead, but when someone just pretended he had seen my mother I got mad.
"BAKA! MY MOTHER HAS BEEN DEAD FOR 8 YEARS!" I screamed at him and felt how tears escaped my eyes. This body wasn't used to suppress tears. Sakura stared at him with a look that could freeze the sun.
"I suggest you leave now or else you will get hurt"
"Hmpf! Like you could-"Sasuke stopped when he saw the murder intent in our glares. He quickly turned around and ran away.
I managed to get my control back but even so the other girls looked worried.
"A-are you o-okay Naruko chan?" I wiped my tears.
"Yeah, I'm okay. Thanks for defending me!" I smiled at them. Sakura grunted.
"Hmpf! You can't go around spying on people! Just who does he think he is!?" Ino agreed.
"Yeah! I thought he was kind of cool, but if he spies on people, ew!"
"I-I thought it w-was kind of m-mean to p-pretend he met y-your mother." I thought about why he would do such a thing. He probably just wanted to get away with spying.
"It would have been fun if he stayed. I could have practiced my weapon throwing!" Tenten looked a bit dreamy at the thought of throwing weapons.
"How about we go inside again, it's getting a bit late." They agreed and we went inside.
The rest of the night we talked about boys, school and training. We eventually fell asleep in our beds and nothing out of the ordinary happened.
"Naruko, wake up!" I turned around in my sleep. Why did Kurama talk in the middle of the night?
"NARUKO WAKE UP!" I shoot out of my bed. At the side of it Sakura, Hinata and Ino stood.
"Where is Tenten?" I yawned and tried to rub the sleep from my eyes. Sakura rolled her eyes.
"Her class has an outside day today so she had to go early. Now hurry up, we are starting in 10 minutes!" I jumped out of bed and got dressed. It turned out that the others had already eaten some of the fruit that was in my fridge so I took a pear to eat on our way to the academy.
We arrived safe and sound, the villagers probably were late. When we entered the classroom it was half full. The moment we saw Sasuke Sakura and Ino half dragged, half pushed us to the other side of the room and sat down on each side of me and Hinata. If anyone of us got eye contact with Sasuke we quickly turned away.
Iruka entered and we started the class. It was another history lesson about the Hokages and how awesome they were.
After class Sasuke tried to approach us but we just walked away.
Kiba Pov
"Man, you guys sure are pissed at Sasuke!" I approached the girls. I didn't really care about him, I was just curios what could make all of them pissed and wanted to make sure I didn't do it.^
"And WHAT?" Sakura glared at me.
"Whoa whoa calm down! I didn't do anything! I just wondered what he did." I put up my hands in a surrendering gesture.
"Why don't you ask him yourself?" Naruko suggested. I realized that I wouldn't get any information out of them so I went back to the guys.
"Sasuke, what did you do to make them so mad? C'mon tell me your secret!" I slung an arm around him. Surprisingly Sasuke blushed when I asked him.
"I don't want to talk about it." I laughed.
"C'mon! It's not like you watched them sleep or something!" Sasuke looked away. My eyes widened.
"Wait, DID you watch them sleep!?"
"No… I was invited but they didn't notice me until they played hide and seek" I rolled my eyes.
"That's basically spying on them!" Shikamaru shook his head.
"You shouldn't upset women. They're too troublesome." I made a mental note not to look on Naruko when she didn't know I was there. If I did, she probably wouldn't want to be my girlfriend.
Naruko Pov
The day went smooth and on my way home I met Neji.
"Hi Neji! What did you do on your day outside?" He looked surprised, not expecting someone to talk to him.
"Who are you? Why do you know who I am and what I did today?" I smiled and answered him.
"Hinata told me about you and Tenten is in your class."
"Why would they tell you anything about me?" I shook my head.
"And here I thought Hizashi taught you some manners. Girls like to talk about boys!" Once again he was surprised.
"How do you know my father's name?" I rolled my eyes.
"Neji, your clan is one of the biggest in Konoha! There is something called a library!" Neji looked like he bought my lie. Of course I knew it from that fight between me and him in the future. Would it be in the future or in the past since I already fought it?
I said goodbye and headed home. I had some scrolls that Jiji gave me long ago but then I was really lazy and hated to read. Maybe the scrolls would contain some jutsu or useful information? After reading the first page I realized that it was a scroll about jutsus. Every jutsu required a lot of chakra so they were perfect for me.
'I really wish I would have read this scroll before' Maybe I could have won against Madara?
"That scroll seems to be very helpful. I suggest you hide it and practice those jutsus."
'I will! Thanks Kurama!' I put the scroll in one of my shirts in my wardrobe, I would look at it tomorrow since today I was training everything non-jutsu. I ate ramen for dinner and went to the training grounds. I made up a schedule. First I would practice strength and stamina, by doing laps around Konoha and doing pushups with weights. After that I would practice my weapon skills. Then I would practice to control my chakra by climbing trees with my feet, and at last I would practice some genjutsu with the help of Kurama. I was glad that the Anbu didn't follow me everywhere since then I wouldn't be able to practice properly.
The training went good, no one interrupted me and I managed to get almost to the highest visible branch when I was tree climbing.
When I got home I went to bed, thinking about how friendly everyone was.
"ANOTHER FUCKING NIGHTMARE!?" I shot out of bed. Ino, Shikamaru and Choji had terrorized me this night. The clock was about 1 hour before school, but since I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep I went to my wardrobe and got dressed. Then I thought of something fun.
I walked through the quiet village coming up with the perfect prank. Luckily I always brought pranking stuff with me.
I arrived at Kiba's house, smirking. Hiding my chakra so good I could I sneaked towards Kiba's room. He was sleeping but the moment I was about to sneak in I got reminded that his sense of smell was very good.
I was lucky; his mom had forgotten her perfume on his desk. Silently I sneaked in and drenched the room in perfume. Kiba wouldn't sense my smell and he would wake up because he was hopefully used to this scent. I opened his wardrobe and spray painted all of his clothes pink, with glitter. I loved to prank people with that color
Before I left I wrote on a piece of paper: If your 'friend' would have hurried with his prank, maybe this wouldn't have to happen. I sneaked out of the room and hurried to Iruka.
Iruka opened the door when I knocked. He looked sleepy.
"Huh? Naruko what are you doing here?" I hugged him. He smelled like he always did.
"I just wanted to eat breakfast with you sensei!" First he was surprised but then he smiled back and patted my head.
"Okay, come on in! I was just going to start preparing my miso soup." I followed him in and we ate breakfast together. It was really nice and being with Iruka made me smile. He was my first friend.
