Chapter 14: Teacher and Student

Naruto has been jumping through the trees for a while. During that time, she was thinking of what happened earlier.

~Flashback~

"You're going alone…with no one?" asked the little Yachuri

"Yes I am, I've changed my mind about telling the others. But if someone's at my door, just quietly tell them that I'm going to be gone for a bit" Naruto nodded quietly

"Okay…" whimpered Yachuri

"I'll see you later and don't let anyone know, especially Itachi, because he will come following me" and left

~End of Flashback~

'Yachuri, I trust you to not let them come after me' But suddenly, she felt a familiar chakra, 'Jiraiya!' she thought and quickly hid her own. Naruto then teleported right behind him.

"Jiraiya-sensei…" she whispered

The old sannin flinched in surprise, "The Flaming Fox, I finally get to talk to you alone"

"Long time no see old geezer" the red-haired girl grinned

"Who really are you and why do you wish to speak to me?" asked Jiraiya hotly

"I'm sorry for not telling you earlier sensei" she replied. One could even hear the guilt in her voice.

Once again, the legendary sannin flinched again, this time at the word 'sensei'.

"It's me, your student," she whispered

"Nagato?" questioned the gama-sannin, "If you are, why are you a girl?"

Naruto laughed, "I'm not Nagato, he's my uncle"

"Uncle? I never knew he had a niece…" he muttered

"Heh, then does this phrase remind you, 'I'm going to be Hokage one day so the village will finally acknowledge me!'" she requested

"Hold it," Jiraiya started, "Isn't that Naruto's line? He's a boy, you're a girl, how does that relate? Unless you are Naruto…"

"Correct, Jiraiya-sensei," cheered Naruto

"NARUTO! Why did you fake your death? Why are you a girl? Why are you with the Akatsuki? Why—"

"I'm sorry Jiraiya-sensei. I'll answer you the next time we meet, I need to leave" she cut him off

"W-wait!" but Naruto was already gone.

What happened when Naruto was chatting with Jiraiya…At the Hideout…

Kisame was strolling through the hideout halls when he decided to go to Yugito's room. But when he was passing Naruto's room, he felt no presence in it. So he just walked over and started to knock on the door. No answer. He began to knock some more. Still no answer. Then he barged in.

'Oh crap. Where's leader-sama?' the blue man thought

Yachuri quickly caught him before he ran to tell the others.

"Kisame!" she said and grabbed his shirt, "Naruto is out for a while but don't tell anyone!"

He nodded and quickly left. 'What is she doing?'

Everyone else was playing Go Fish. Itachi soon lost and went to check on his Naruto-chan.

When he got into the room, he noticed it was empty.

Yachuri caught him and explained to Itachi of what happened and where she was. Then he sighed in relief. Actually, he grunted in understanding.

Naruto came back shortly. Itachi immediately sensed her and appeared in the redhead's room.

"Hello Itachi" she smiled

"Where did you go?" he asked impatiently

"Nowhere much, just talking to my old sensei" was her reply

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"Well I didn't think you would notice, you were stuck into playing Go Fish with the others"

"Naruto…"

"Fine, I'm—" she tried to say but she was cut off by another pair of lips connected to her own.

"Just inform me next time"

"Okay" she whispered, "Oh um Itachi, I'm going to visit Konoha sometime soon, are you going to come along with Deidera?"

"Sure, I'll come." He said, "But why are you going to Konoha?"

"I just need to settle things with someone." She said

Back in Konoha…

'Argg! I was soo stupid to not figure it out! She is Naruto! Wait a sec…how did he…umm…she get so strong?' thought the perverted sannin. 'In the letter, she told me to not tell anyone, including Tsunade, what will I do?…'

'I still don't believe that Nagato was his/her uncle. Then again, Gaara must have known that he/she was Naruto'

'So many questions and I don't think I can still keep it a secret…' he sighed

[Oi, sorry. Very short chapter. Not much time to type. Also, I'm not good with doing parings so it will be much less or almost none in this fiction. Sorry Well, I'll give you the next chapter's name:

Chapter 15: Remembering the past, Learning the future part 1. This will be a two-part chapter. Good bye for now!]
