New Whirlpool
Author's Notes: I admit this isn't one of my best chapters as I am trying to set everything up for Naruto to start working at the Yellow Flash as well as meeting someone who has a bigger role than a shop owner, but I did my best on it and I hope you like it.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or anything to do with Naruto but I did create the two sisters that will end up being on Naruto's team unless I decide to use someone else from cannon for the role.
Now The Story:
With key in hand to her new apartment and a small advance in pay to buy new clothes for work Naruto left the inn with her mind swirling. Everything pointed at the woman being her mother, how many other children had a demon sealed inside of them in Konoha after all? The blonde wanted to curl up and cry learning that her mother was still alive and seemed to abandoned her, if the woman didn't abandon her then Naruto would have been here already having a happy life.
'Did she hate me so much, blame me for my fathers death?' Naruto asked mentally feeling Kyu's calming presence.
'I'm sorry Naruto, I honestly wish I could answer that but I can't. The only one who can is her and the only way to find out is to ask.' Kyu sighed, truthfully wanting to know the answers to. What kind of mother would abandon her child? If Kushina really did then the red haired bitch would die if Kyu ever got lose on her.
'I can't ask, I won't Kyu-Chan, I already know the answer and to her it from her would kill me.' Naruto sighed while rubbing her eyes.
'Then lets just leave here, go somewhere else.' Kyu urged, this new town Aphros was so close to Wave, they could just go there.
'No...Kyu, I have to know what she is like, she's my mother.' Naruto said as she arrived at the shop Kushina had gave her directions to. It was a medium sized shop that sold all kinds of clothes it looked like. Walking through the door Naruto smiled and returned the rather large mans greeting who sat behind the counter. He didn't have any hair and was dressed just in slacks and boots not wearing a shirt as his muscular frame rippled.
'Damn.' Kyu drawled seeing the man through Naruto's eyes.
"Do you need help finding anything kid?" The man asked in a gruff voice but Naruto could tell from the genuine smile that he was being nice but his voice must have been naturally gruff like that.
"I'm just looking for some new clothes, I'm the new worker at the Yellow Flash." Naruto said making the large man chuckle deeply.
"Be careful with that one, Kushina can be a firecracker." The man laughed, "Just be careful with her daughters, the one is fine but the other can be a bit flirty. She got the last guy who worked there nuts cut off."
"Your kidding, right?" Naruto asked, a part of her thought Kushina was just exaggerating over that. Another part of her was shocked that she may have had sisters.
"Fraid not lad, Yuki is a right beautiful girl but she teases too much. One day her teasing went to far and the guy tried to...do things he shouldn't have. If Yuki wasn't as good as she was something bad may have happened." The man said, "Listen to me gossiping like an old hen, lets get set up for your job lad."
"Talking about me old man?" A girl's voice asked from the entrance drawing Naruto and the man's attention to her and another girl. They looked almost alike with their black hair and pale faces with green eyes but they were dressed differently. Both had on the same type of outfit that Kushina wore earlier but one of them had the top of her kimono open showing a black tanktop that showed a lot of cleavage. She was also wearing more obvious makeup than the other girl and had a more mischievous look on her face.
'Kid, be careful with that one, she reeks of trouble.' Kyu said studying the two girls who were a few years older than Naruto and obvious twins.
"Yuki and Sayuri, what are you lasses up to today?" The man asked laughing a bit.
"We were heading home for our shift when we saw the cute blond, I had to stop of and say hello." The one Naruto was sure was Yuki said while smirking. "Imagine my surprise when we heard he is going to be working with us."
"Go easy on the lad, girl." The man said mirthfully, "Don't get him killed, he's still young yet."
"Whatever Hiro." Yuki said grabbing Naruto and leading him through the store, "Lets get you something to wear, preferably something hot."
"Yuki, mom wants us back we can't mess around here." Sayuri said, "Please excuse my sisters rudeness, My name is Sayuri Uzamaki and this is my sister Yuki Uzamaki."
"My name is Naru." Naruto said when they stopped by a rack of clothes as Yuki started digging through them.
"No last name?" Yuki asked. Naruto was sure she saw a sneer on the girl's face for a moment before the grin returned.
"No, just Naru, I don't have a family." Naruto explained.
"Yuki, leave him alone." Sayuri urged while giving Naruto an apologetic look. Naruto was unsure what to think of these two girls who was supposedly her sisters. The two black haired girls seemed so much like each other physically but their personalities seemed so different and Naruto had only been around them a few minutes.
"Try this on." Yuki smiled as she pulled a mesh muscle shirt off a hanger that was see through. There was no way in hell Naruto would wear something like that even if she was a boy and there was even less chance of her wearing it as a girl.
"No thank you." Naruto said is disgust while shaking her head.
"What, you want to wear more garbage like that?" Yuki sneered looking Naruto up and down. Naruto had on one of her orange jumpsuits but it was dirty and had several tears in it from traveling. She didn't have much on her, she never owned much, but she wasn't about to blow what little money she had on her on crap like what Yuki was showing.
"And what if I do?" Naruto asked crossing her arms, "I'm not about to get pushed into buying something I don't want by some...some...some SLUT!"
"How dare you!" Yuki snarled throwing the shirt to the side and pulling a kunai from somewhere holding it towards Naruto.
'Unstable much?' Kyu asked making Naruto want to laugh but the blonde fought hat off.
"Yuki!" Kushina snapped coming into the shop, anger evident in her voice.
"Mom!" Yuki squeaked out spinning around to face the older woman.
"We WILL talk about his later young lady now get back to the inn." Kushina ordered, a little anger evident in her voice but a lot of sympathy could be heard as well. The two girls didn't reply but Sayuri gave Naruto a soft smile before leaving.
"I'm sorry about my girls, Yuki can be a bit difficult sometimes but she is a good girl." Kushina said pinching the bridge of her nose. "I'm glad I needed to pick up some supplies for the kitchen."
"Whatever." Naruto grumbled.
"Take tonight off, we will start you off tomorrow and we can all get to know each other a little more in the morning before opening and I can show you what you will need to do." Kushina said, "It looks like I won't have to worry about you messing with my daughter though. I don't want to hear you calling her a slut again though, got it?"
"Yeah, I got it." Naruto said a little angrily though she was feeling hurt to. She should have this family, even if it seemed a little messed up.
"They may be adopted but it doesn't mean I don't love them so just show them the same respect you show me." Kushina said, "I need to get going to pick everything up, go ahead and get whatever you want since there are no dress codes but please get something nice."
"Don't worry, I will." Naruto said as the woman smiled before turning to leave. Naruto wanted to scream at the woman and accuse her of caring more about orphans than her own child but didn't. Naruto couldn't bring herself to hate the two girls as she spent her life as an orphan and knew how hard it could be. She could be mad at her so called mother though, how could Kushina abandon her own child to take care of a stranger's children?
...LA LÍNEA ROTURA...
Kushina left the store heading toward Mamoru's place to pick up her kitchen supplies. She was upset at her daughter for what she was doing with the new boy knowing full well that the girl was only messing with him. Yuki more or likely hated the idea of a boy working with her and was trying to get him fired before starting as she knew how protective Kushina was of the girl, especially after that last bastard tried to rape her. Since then Yuki has kept her flirtatious attitude but there was something that Kushina didn't like about it. Yuki was a lot more different that she used to be and there was a cold edge that the girl tried to hide from everyone.
Still, the new boy being an orphan made Kushina's heart jump out to him. The fact that he looked so much like her beloved Minato wasn't lost on her either, and the fact that he came from Konoha just made her even more confused. He could either be a spy for that damned council trying to find out if the rumors of New Whirlpool was true or not or he could be an illegitimate child from Minato cheating on her. She didn't want to believe Minato cheated on her, she would rather believe the looks was just coincidence as she loved the man and knew he loved her just as much.
Thinking about Minato maybe having another child though brought up memories of her own child. She remembered how Minato was crying softly as he used a shunshin to appear in the room just as little Naruto was born. The nurse announced that the child was a girl which shocked everyone in the room as all medical evidence pointed towards the unborn baby being a boy. Still Kushina was filled with so much joy but Minato said that he loved them both and took the baby just as the nurse was getting ready to hand the child over. He used a shunshin to disappear almost immediately giving Kushina a sad look. It wasn't even a few hours later when Danzo showed up with the news of both Minato and her baby Naruto being killed by the demon fox. With the only reasons for her staying in Konoha gone and pressure from Danzo Kushina left and used the wealth that she had to build Aphros and her secret that only a few knew about so far. As soon as she could find a reliable partner for her girls too then she would make New Whirlpool's presence more known when they returned to Konoha for next years Chunin exams.
Yuki was an excellent weapons Mistress and absorbed most any ninjitsu she was shown like a sponge. If Kushina didn't know better she would have sworn the girl had the Sharingan. Sayuri on the other hand was much more soft spoken than her twin and it showed in her choice of art. Sayuri was a wonderful medic nin and had a knack for genjutsu able to trap even some of the best masters in her own illusions. Kushina knew her girls were very promising and she was proud of the twins. If only her daughter was still alive and not buried along with Minato then she was sure that they could not only be a happy family but also the perfect ninja cell showcasing the most hidden of ninja villages.
Reader Reponses:
Since the last update I have had a message explaining that I should answer reviews from email and not from the site as there are reply links included. Well, there is and since I was told that it is pretty much against the rules to answer reviews in the story I will be answering reviews from the reply link which many of you who have reviewed already know. I'm sorry for making everyone wait for a response until the updates but now I will be responding much earlier.
