Konoha's Innocent Vixen
By: Kibou32
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.
Summary: Story of a female Naruto who doesn't want to be Hokage. She's accepted by the villagers for being the Kyuubi's vessel, her father Namikaze Minato – the Yondaime Hokage is still alive after the sealing happened and is dead set against the thought his daughter would become a kunoichi despite the fact that both of the legendary sannin: Tsunade and Jiraiya, are teaching the kid everything they know in hopes of instructing a soon to be powerful shinobi weapon. Watch as Naruto deals with a negative out look from shinobi all around her – including her father's reluctance to seeing her as anything else than a ninja – to the pressure from those she's captured the hearts of to be the Godaime Hokage when all she ever wanted was just to be a regular shinobi with nothing else of importance besides the bijuu residing inside of her.
Pairings: Gaara + Naruto.
Warnings: there may be debauchery, heterosexual sex, etc.
A/N: Previously known as "A Question of Time". I'm sorry... but the first review was discouraging enough... and I got bored with the outline, so I was playing with a different version of it and ended up with this.

A man's best friend:-:
"Now why do we even have to work at the Hospital Again?!" – screeched Pinky to Kakashi and he sighed.
It wasn't like they had a choice, but he really wasn't going to mention this to her. He might as well say that due to Naruto, they'd be working in the hospital at least 3 times a week – when not outside of the village doing some other mission – for as long as they would be delivered D-level missions. And of the two choices he had, it was either working them off with training or performing another D-level mission which Naruto wouldn't be privy to since the Slug Sannin had laid down her law… Naruto was to perform several B-level activities at the Hospital three times a week. Rather than separating Team Seven more than usual, he took them to the Hospital to do D-level chores that involved moping, washing dishes, changing beds, washing the linens, etc. Today, Naruto had been sent to ICU to work on some sort of medical shit he knew nothing about and he was left to take Sasuke and Sakura to work at the hospital.
With the exception of today, his two remaining students usually worked together in their usual four hour D-level mission, but today a nurse had taken Sakura away to work with her seeing as her apprentices weren't around due to some sort of other events that he wasn't privy to and Sasuke was left with him to work in the kitchen to wash dishes.
"Kakashi!" – a voice he dreaded came about and he swore.
"Sensei? Who is that woman coming towards us with such glee?" – he heard Sasuke ask him and he wondered if maybe grabbing Sasuke and running out of the kitchen would work.
He got embraced from behind and he grunted at the force of the embrace.
"Oh wow! I didn't know you had a team already!" – said the black haired Kunoichi with dark brown eyes.
Kakashi just shook his head and said: "What brings you to the kitchen Anko?"
"One of my teammates decided to play hero on our mission and here we are… and who is this young man… ah the next Uchiha prodigy." – she said while she grasped Sasuke's cheeks and began to torture him.
Kakashi sighed. He was just about to tell her to butt out, but was stopped as much as Anko was with the sight of a henge.
"Oh my Naru-chan! You really do know how to work it for me!" – he heard Anko yell at her and he felt his one eye bug out.
There stood a kage bunshin in the shape of a big breasted blond girl wearing virtually nothing underneath the pink smoke that protected her assets from being completely shown in public.
He – uncharacteristically as it was of him – blushed. He found that Sasuke was also gawking at Naruto's kage bunshin and a blush had formed in his cheeks. Plus it seemed as if one move from the blond haired nymph would bring Sasuke – and him if he dared to admit it out loud – unconscious due to heavy duty hemorrhage from the nose.
"Really Anko-san! You shouldn't escape the room just because Tsunade-baachan said you needed stitches too!" – came a voice behind the kage bunshin and Sasuke did fall then at the sight of a rather cute blond genin's getup.
He himself didn't fall, but this was only due to the fact that he had been privy to this look once before. There stood Naruto in a nurse's white uniform that fit her prim and athletic body to the tee. Too bad Naruto hadn't developed that far around her bust area, yet. Unlike her clone which had a bust that he'd kill to put his hands on… in another woman of course. He considered his student to be just that. And of course he treasured his manhood, for if the Hokage heard he was trying to bed his twelve year old daughter, he would cut his dick off before feeding him off to Ibiki for interrogation torture.
"Ah… but you know I prefer you over all the men and women in this world Naru-chan! I will only let you be my attendee instead of Tsunade-sama!" – Anko exclaimed.
Naruto deadpanned: "That's a ridiculous thought. Now don't go hugging my kage bunshin too tightly while I do the stitches or you'll make it banish before I finish." – she said as she began to unload the things she had been carrying in one hand on one of the kitchen's empty tables.
"Hai Naru-chan!" – Anko cried out happily. While she let the younger kunoichi work, Kakashi watched on incredulous that he was being ignored. That is until another blond kage bunshin began to poke him to get his attention and then he noticed that Sasuke's blood was still flowing out of his nose. He resolved to think of this at a later date, though.

When Sasuke woke up, he was with Kakashi in one of the stalls on the Emergency Room.
"So… care to explain what that was about?" – he heard his sensei ask to another blur that Sasuke thought might've been his teammate Naruto.
"The technique or Anko behaving like that?" – she said whilst doing some sort of task Sasuke wasn't sure what it was due to his failing sight.
"Either, both. I've known Anko some time now… but I've never seen her act like an eager puppy awaiting its master to come home… why does she seem to prefer your… what is that technique anyway?" – he asked when he was unable to say something else.
"It's called the 'Oiroke no jutsu' and I used it whenever I have to deal with Ero-sensei or Anko. Sometimes even when I'm trying to delude some cultuist off of me." – she said as she listed the above as if it were an everyday occurrence.
"Where on earth did you get the idea to do so?!" – he said bewildered.
"Ero-sensei's books!" – she said.
And then proceeded to do something neither Kakashi or Sasuke were expecting. She began to tickled Sasuke on his hip. It was the funny reaction that she got off of him that made Sasuke realize she had been aware of him being awake at all times.
"Yam—mete… yamero!" – Sasuke continued on chuckling and laughing as he hadn't so for years since his parents' deaths.
"You know it's not nice to listen in on adult conversations, Uchiha!" – she teased and then she slipped her finger a little and produced a once in a lifetime reaction. Sasuke shuddered whilst trying to catch his breath and he knew that she had hit the spot. His very sensitive spot! The spot that induced him a hard on!
Kakashi cleared his throat and before Naruto could say anything or do anything else… Sakura burst into the emergency room looking a little worse for wear, looking like she might kill her teammate for touching her precious Sasuke-kun. Kakashi rolled his eyes and prayed something would come up soon before Naruto killed Sakura in defense.
:-:
"Honestly! Hatake-san… I'm going to have to ask you to keep your other two subordinates away from the hospital." – he heard the Slug Sannin say in an annoyed voice.
"Does this mean that my other subordinate is banned from the hospital too?" – he said seriously.
"Naruto isn't your subordinate. It is true that she's a genin. But at the hospital she's at least chunnin level. I cannot have her frolicking around, shirking her duties while I need her fully focused on her job!" – she growled back at him and Kakashi was suddenly afraid for his manhood.
"At the hospital she's a genin as well. Until the Hokage accepts her superb credits as you put it, she's still my subordinate." – he said stoically all the while sweating underneath his skin.
"Oh… so that's what it is. You won't accept she's under my command at the hospital until you've seen Hokage approved credentials! Very well… you'll have those no later than the next time she has to come here." – and then she marched away from him leaving him to exhale the holdup breath he had in his lungs. He had feared that she'd loose her temper and punch him a new one.
He sagged and tried to keep himself in check. But before he turned around and decided to throw Sakura into a 3 day training spree of hell, he was stopped by Jiraiya himself.
"I'm surprised you're still alive Kakashi." – he said seriously.
Kakashi turned to face him completely not knowing that Naruto had come into the Hospital's inner park to speak to him herself.
"So am I. I thought she'd push a hole into my skull for insubordination." – he said quietly.
"We are legends around here, but that doesn't mean we're anywhere above you in rank. True that we hold seniority over the Hokage himself, but all shinobi fall underneath one rule… and that is the Hokage. No one else." – he said as he uncrossed his arms and stretched.
"Then why did you teach Naruto? If you're supposed to obey the Hokage's rule above else… then why did you train Naruto from such a young age?!" – Kakashi asked incredulous that those words had come out of his sensei's sensei's mouth.
"That's laying it on thick Kakashi. I do remember you too taught her techniques as well as took her to see your fated rival Maito Gai, if I remember correctly. And in this… we had the approval of the council. Now, Minato may have not wanted his daughter to become a tool for Konoha due to the Kyuubi; but… - and here it is where you have to look underneath the underneath – Naruto needed to be taught. She needed to be able to find a way to defend herself. Putting ANBU guards outside her bedroom window and whatnot wouldn't have worked for higher S-class jounin from other villages. Naruto needs to find her own path. She is her own person and Minato has forgotten that." – he said with his eyes serious and his mouth pressed into a thin line.
Kakashi sagged. He knew this was the truth in its hardcore, but to make a little soldier like her… a perfect little soldier… this might be too much for her and the village. He had been getting to know her so much better and gotten a bit frightened that she had no dream of her own. He wanted the cheery girl that he had played with when she was five. He wanted the ever so expectant girl who had been so happy to show him how much she had learned under Gai's supervision. He wanted her to be happy. He had agreed before with the sannins's about the method and the end result… but now… now he wasn't sure this was what he had wanted in the end.
"We both – Tsunade and I – care too much for that girl. We have been more or less parental figurines to her rather than her own flesh and blood. Don't come to me about not caring. This is our way. It was taught to us to become strong enough, that is our way." – he said and then he nodded once at him as farewell before disappearing into thin air.
Kakashi was left bereft of feelings. He didn't know what to think anymore. He turned around and was once again shocked into stupor at finding Naruto standing there looking blank. He wanted to apologize, but he couldn't find the right words to say so he stood there quietly awaiting her mood.
She didn't say anything at first making him highly uncomfortable. But then she raised her blue eyes to him and said…
"Kakashi-sensei. I would advise you not to fight with Tsunade-no-baachan. She's not one to take too lightly if one wants to survive to see the next day. Furthermore… it was you who told me once that I had to find a way to balance my shinobi duties and my own life on a scale. Well… my life depends on my shinobi skills. But to get those skills I have to perform duties as payment for the teaching I'm getting… this way I owe no one my existence. Please understand that your concerns are noted and much appreciated, but the only way you'd help me is by helping me help myself." – and then she nodded in farewell towards him the same way Jiraiya had done so and left in a burst of flames.
Isn't always a dog.
