Hope you enjoy this story. We will be a little all over the place in this chapter. If you don't like it I won't do it again but I am trying to make the chapters longer for you all. Anyway I am thinking about beginning a story about Kushina being Otokage. I read two stories like that and was really interested. I heard it was a challenge and well I would like to take that. Anyway if I need to ask anyone in particular for permission let me know as I am still new to this sort of thing. I attempted to fix many spelling and gammer mistakes in chapter 10 and 11. I hope I got all of them but anyway enjoy.
*Kushina and Naruko the morning after Naruto leaves*
"Good morning Kaa-san. How was your sleep?" Naruto asked as she walked up to Kushina.
"Morning Naruko-chan. How is Narumi-chan doing?" Kushina yawned before smiling at her girls.
"She is well, still sleeping as you can see. She was up last night due to a nightmare, so she didn't get much sleep. I think she misses Luna and Nii-san." Naruko sighed as she adjusted her hold on Narumi.
"Here I will take her for a while. Have you two had breakfast yet?" Kushina asked as she took Narumi.
"Not yet, I figured we could have breakfast together." Naruko smiled at Kushina.
"I think that is a lovely idea Naruko-chan. I know just the place as well. I also need to talk to you about Naruto-kun." Kushina smiled while walking down the street.
"So kaa-san, what did you want to say about Nii-san?" Naruko asked as she walked beside Kushina.
"I would like to know how his training in Fuuinjustu is coming as well as a few other things. We can talk more over breakfast but for now how is his fuuinjustu coming?" Kushina asked.
"He is very good Kaa-san. He is a natural at it. Honestly he might surpass me in a month or so. Especially if he keeps up with his own study. He has gotten so many fuuinjustu scrolls from the library and reads most of them in a few days with clones. Honestly if he was raised and trained properly he could give tou-san a run for his money." Naruko said.
"Never call that man your tou-san again Naruko. I know you two were close but it is because of him we lost Naruto-kun. I still hold blame but that bastard holds most of it." Kushina glared towards the hokage tower.
"I'm sorry Kaa-san. Your right but I just…. I don't know Kaa-san. I'm scared ok. I don't want hokage-sama to split us up again but I also don't want to lose anyone." Naruko looked up at Kushina with tears in her eyes.
"I'm sorry for snapping ta you Naruko-chan. I'm just frustrated and angry at Minato." Kushina apologized.
"It's ok Kaa-san. Maybe hokage-sama will return to normal and we can be a happy family again." Naruko said hopefully.
"Maybe Naruko-chan, maybe." Kushina sighed as they neared a small café serving breakfast.
After they were seated a waiter came and took their orders. As soon as the waiter moved far enough away motioned for Naruko to lean forward.
"Naruko-chan I want you to keep a close eye on Naruto ok?" Kushina asked.
"Why Kaa-san?" Naruko looked confused.
"I believe Minato-teme might try something and I am worried about what he and Naruto discussed in the tower." Kushina whispered.
"I was worried too but Nii-san said it was nothing. Are you sure Hokage-sama might try something?" Naruko wondered.
"I'm positive Naruko. My gut is telling me the teme will do something and by kami I will listen to my gut. I ignored it before and it cost me Naruto. I won't lose him again." Kushina growled.
"Ok Kaa-san, I will keep an eye open. Is there anything else you wanted?" Naruko asked.
"Kaa-san! How are you?" Narumi yawned as she gazed around."Nee-chan!"
"Good morning Narumi-chan. Did you sleep well?" Kushina looked lovingly down at her youngest daughter.
"No Woona and sapire no here. It wasn't vewy comfy." Narumi looked down clearly sad.
"Don't Worry Narumi, Nii-san should return today with Luna and Sapphire so you will get a good night's rest tonight." Naruko patted Narumi's head. Narumi in turn smiled brightly and giggled.
"So Naruko-chan, has Naruto-kun or Luna offered you the fox contract yet?" Kushina asked.
"No they haven't. I doubt they will offer it to me. I mean they like me but I still think Naruto is mad at me." Naruko sighed.
"Why would he be mad at you? You seem so close now. Why wouldn't Luna offer it to you then?" Kushina looked worried.
"Maybe mad was the wrong word. More like jealous, I think. I did get trained properly the first time around and I grew up loved by a family. I mean he doesn't act jealous but every now and then I see jealousy flash in his eyes." Naruko explained.
"Oh, yeah I can see how he would still hold a grudge. But still that doesn't explain why Luna hasn't offered it to you." Kushina sighed.
"I don't know why she hasn't either. Maybe she doesn't have the power to offer the contract to anyone else. But if that's the case Sapphire might have offered it." Naruko looked down.
"We can ask them when they get back. Now let's enjoy our breakfast before going to see the rest of the team." Kushina smiled as their food arrived.
*Shinkyo, morning after Naruto's trials.*
Naruto was having the time of his life. He was lying in a field gazing into the blue sky while Luna laid on the ground next to his head. Everything was just so perfect in that moment. He sighed as he closed his eyes. He almost fell asleep before he felt something wet touch his cheek.
"Luna knock it off, I'm trying to sleep." He groaned before rolling over.
"You have slept long enough lazy ass. Now up and at em." Luna said. Naruto's eyes snapped open and he looked around. Gone were the fields and clear blue sky. He now saw mountains and forests and a partially cloudy sky.
Naruto groaned before sitting up fully. "Man I had a wonderful dream, and then you showed up Luna." Naruto teased.
"Then it became the best damn dream you ever had right? Or am I going to have to perform a particular surgery on you?" Luna smirked as Naruto paled. "Thought so."
"Well come on, why did you wake me up?" Naruto asked.
"Kaa-san wants you to meet some of the other elders. You won't summon all of them since only a couple like to fight but it would be good to get to know them." Luna explained as Naruto stood up and stretched.
"Ok so where am I meeting these elders?" Naruto asked as he looked at Luna.
"In a clearing not too far from here. Also I don't remember if anyone explained this to you but elders are kitsune with five or more tails. Most are rather large and the biggest being slightly larger than Kaa-san. That kitsune has nine tails just like Kyuubi but isn't as bloodthirsty." Luna explained as she took her spot on his shoulder.
"Luna the Kyuubi's name is Kurami and it's a she." Naruto said.
"Oh so she actually told you?!" Luna asked shocked.
"Yeah she told me her name when she gave me her approval to have you as my summons." Naruto explained.
"So she didn't give you control of her power then?" Luna asked.
"Not that I know of. Why?" Naruto asked.
"It appears you have a few more tests then. Don't worry Naruto-kun. We will help you when the time comes. For now let's go meet the elders.
*Back with Kushina, Naruko and Narumi*
"Thanks for breakfast Kaa-san!" Naruko thanked Kushina.
"Thank you Kaa-san." Narumi giggled.
"You are both welcome." Kushina smiled as they headed towards training ground seven.
"I wonder when Nii-san will get back. They did say he was coming back today but never specified when." Naruko said.
"Well I assume soon since it is almost midday. He is probably at the training field waiting for us." Kushina puts her arm around Naruko who is holding Narumi.
"What will we be doing today Kaa-san?" Naruko asked.
"Well I'm thinking of improving Sakura's and Sasuke's justu arsenal. Also teach you all the basics of elemental chakra." Kushina answered.
"Oh awesome! I can't wait." Naruko cheered and sped up.
"Be careful with Narumi Naruko-chan." Kushina chuckled at her daughter's enthusiasm.
"Don't worry kaa-san she will be fine now come on lets go. I want to know my elements." Naruko said before running towards the training grounds.
"Wait up Naruko-chan!" Kushina yelled as she started running to catch up while smiling about how things seem to be looking up for them.
Well it is a ton of fun writing this story. Anyway let me know what you think of the story. I love reading your reviews and I read all of them. So continue to vote and recommend this story for your friends. I think I might delay wave for a couple more chapters just to give sakura and Sasuke more character development since they just scream cliché characters. Also did Naruto visit taki village before or after chuunin exams. I have never seen that filler arc so please let me know. Love you all so much.
