VFSNAKE; Hey, I have nothing against Jiraiya, and Kakashi is good, here. Be expecting him to be bashed in the next story, however.
Rixel; Hence the reason I added the chapter, along with my idea of helping to cut Taisune down a little, by showing that others have some of his tricks, such as Kushina. And don't worry, only the Hinata and Haku events occurred in the same day, and for the honey thing, I have that as Fu's favorite food.
Naruhina; True enough
Hektols; Your see Tsunade's in not too long, but not the Grandmother part
Twilight; I actually can read it, I just happen to prefer reading him with others; such as Hinata, Tayuya, Mei, Fu and Yugito. That, and she and Tenten were tossups...I literally decided by flipping a coin, a penny to be exact.
Now, I have searched Fanfiction for interesting and uncliche ideas of Naru fanon (Don't send further ideas), and I have found a few interesting ones, and to help them out, I'll share them with you, reachable by my faves list
Rise of the Jiangshi; A story from Dthegrimn, a author who is good at Original ideas, its a vampire story, but not only, is it neither gay nor based off either Rosario, Hellsing or Twilight, uses the Jianshi vampire subspecies. The vampires are Tenten and Kin, and did I mention they want Naruto (last updated 1/31/11)
Naruto; Alternate Dimensions and several spinoff stories; Also by Dthegrimn, these stories are filled with gut wrenching humor, dragon using Anko, Motherly Anko, Naruto being the voice of reason...with three girls (Tayuya, Kin, Tenten), fire powered Naruto's, and perhaps the funniest, and strangest of all, a Devil Hinata, and directly related to that, a junk food terrified Choji
Maelstorm of the Moon; by Scion of Justice; Interesting in a way that Naruto is the son of Artemis, the greek goddess of the Moon, and Minato. This actually makes sense, as Artemis is a red head, being the goddess of virginity and that set of things would explain Naruto's lack of Romantic knowledge and other things. Though I've noticed all stories with him as her son seem to have him appear with Thalia...I'm getting ahead of myself. Note, this is a common story format in the PJO fan land, having an Artemis child, its like their CRA, Civilian Council thing.
Rosario still holds the poll, but Bleach is closer now to overtaking it
Take a Shot at writing, you can always get better
Konoha Tea shop
The two cloaked strangers, their faces hidden by their straw hats, were sipping tea, while multitudes of civilians were about their day, or also enjoying tea. The taller of the strangers then began a conversation with his shorter companion.
"So, how does it feel to be home after so long, partner" he asked. The dark figure shook his head calmly.
"I don't feel anything, though it does feel better with the council out of the picture" The taller figure chuckled.
"Yep, heard my old friend" he said that in a sarcastic way "Mei-chan has just dealt with the idiots on my old civilian council. Shame, it appears this dump beat them, hell only Suna still has one" The shorter guy took a sip of his tea.
"I do believe it is likely that won't last much longer, but then again, the village hidden in the sand is Sasori's thing, not mine" the figure then took a bite out of a stick of Dango that had come from the meal.
"You can actually eat that stuff, teammate?" the figure finished the treat and rose an eyebrow.
"And you can eat steak?" the tall man shrugged.
"I guess you have a point there, to each man his own" Kisame chuckled, before two new figures entered the tea shop. To these people, the shorter guy appeared as surprised as he had ever been.
"Um..." his taller teammate questioned, as his shorter one was staring at the entering duo of Mikoto and Fugaku, like he was seeing ghosts, and truth be told that was a prompt train of thought.
"My bad, Kisame-san, it is that those people who just entered, are supposed to be dead" This, Kisame appeared to be confused at this, until he looked at him, and his eyes became the Sharingan briefly. Kisame now got the message.
"So, Uchiha then, Itachi-san" He looked serious.
"Yep, and my parents" the man got up, leaving a bill and pay behind "Let's go, Kisame-san. Things are getting weird, and we have a Jinchuriki to capture" the duo commenced to leave, though Fugaku noticed Kisame as he left.
Land of Fire Roads
The mission team of Naruto, Jiraiya and Dan were walking down a well trodden road, apparently deep in conversation.
"I wonder how Tsunade-chan has changed, god she must have gray hair by now" Dan sighed. This was going to be awkward, would she be cougar like these days? Jiraiya chuckled.
"Trust me, Tsunade-hime, looking old, you'd have a better chance of getting a Nara to stand up against his wife" he smiled "I met her a few years back, and she still looks the same as the day you died...man that sounds awkward?" Naruto appeared to be shocked.
"Wait, so we aren't looking for some wrinkled old granny!" Jiraiya chuckled.
"Nope, Tsunade-Hime's still as attractive as ever, though I'll leave her to you, Dan-san. After all, your the only one who could handle a woman who can destroy a mountain with her fists" Naruto's eyes were wide in shock.
"That's because, unlike you, Jiraiya-sama, I don't peak on her in the hot springs" Dan shook his head, with Naruto glaring at the sannin.
"Hey, have some pity for me, that's the only time I've ever been close to death. I had to remove my Gall Bladder a few years after that incident...though be a quiet attractive nurse" he mused, not realizing this was an altered memory via his seal that only another Uzumaki and his nutsy sidekick knew of.
"Um...getting off the subject of our dangerous quarry, I do believe that while we're out on the road, it would be a good time to teach you, one of my most used, most feared, and most powerful jutsu!" Naruto's eyes were wide.
"This jutsu, will revolutionize your life, in battle or not. Your be able to fulfill your dreams, enter any place, do anything and see everything without consequence, I am talking about!" he summoned a frog, the relatively small Gama, who was doing a pose for dramatic effect, with strange, kabuki like music playing behind him "THE TRANSPARENT ESCAPE TECHNIQUE!" Naruto appeared interested, but then Dan commented, angrily.
"YOU ARE NOT TEACHING THIS BOY YOUR PEEPING JUTSU!" Naruto immediately scowled at the old man. Jiraiya shook his head.
"Really, you had to ruin my fun, and with the hot spring town coming up, he'd have a perfect chance to practice, but kid, you can use it for much more than..."
"Pervy sage, you are aware Haku-chan taught me Ice Release; Ball Implosion, right?" that shut the pervert up big time.
"Okay then..." 'you will be converted to the fun side gaki' " okay then, what about the, no you don't have the hair for Needle Jizo" the sage appeared to be in thought.
"Hmmm, perhaps Barrier; Dome protection method?" Dan commented "It would improve Naruto-san's ability to detect approaching enemies" Naruto's ears appeared to be swelling from all the jutsu ideas being passed. Jiraiya shook his head.
"No, he has clones for that, and he doesn't strike me as the barrier type. Hmmm, I could teach him the Wild Lion's Mane Technique, but then he'd have to expend more chakra to lengthen your hair enough. That, and I don't think you'd look good that way, after all, never use a jutsu that makes you look bad in front of the ladies" Naruto scowled at him
"Well, you could teach him the Frog Conversion Technique. He'd be able to transform his foes into toads, like you did to my niece Shizune that time she called you the 'creepy santa toad'...by the way where was she anyway?" Dan asked as they continued their walk. Jiraiya smiled.
"Tsunade-Hime took her on as an apprentice, last I heard she's a jonnin rank kunoichi" Dan smiled, happy to see his last remaining family member had done so well with herself "However, that really isn't the way the Gaki works. That's an interrogation jutsu, and the day I see Naruto interrogate someone is the day Ibiki carries a Carebear around with him" Dan and Naruto giggled at the thought...before out of nowhere, a harsh string of water flew from the bushes and grabbed Naruto's arm.
"HEY, LET ME GO!" Naruto yelled, as a trio of ninja with Amegekure Hia-te's restrained Naruto with water whip jutsu's
Bridge in Konoha
Itachi and Kisame had made it to a riverside route alongside the forest of Konoha, when the two, Fugaku and Mikoto, body flickered in front of them. With their disguises on, Itachi didn't look like himself, but...
"Okay, who are you guys, and what's with that sword on your back" Fugaku glared at Kisame "That sword resembles the Bingo Book's report on the Samaheda Sword, belonging to the Seven Swordsman of the Mist, in possession of Kisame Hoshigaki, the S class criminal who single handily killed the Daimyo and the rest of the Government body of the Land of Salt Marshes!" The blue skinned freak laughed, as he removed his hat, showing off his blue skin and shark like teeth.
"So, looks as though I owe Kakuzu-Teme a few hundred Ryo. I had bet my compatriot here would be recognized first, how odd" His compatriot looked at him oddly.
"Your betting on such things. Really Kisame-san" he said evenly, in a voice that startled both Uchiha immensely. Mikoto was the first to speak.
"I...Itachi!" He removed his own hat, showing off the face that killed his entire clan. His face blank, he said.
"So, Oka-san, Tou-san, your alive. I thought I killed you" Fugaku glared at him.
"You did" Itachi shook his head.
"So, am I to guess, the snake has something to do with the both of you being alive? No matter, I am not here for you, I have, other business here" Mikoto had tears in her eyes.
"Why..." she cried "Why did you..." Itachi stared at her blankly.
"To be frank, the details of that night are quite fuzzy. Much like what my fishy friend here..."
"Don't call me that" Kisame got annoyed whenever his teammate showed his sense of humor
"Has described from his spells of over drinking, though I have never found much reason to participate in such things. What had happened that night, however, is a question I myself ponder" Mikoto was shaking
"You, don't remember..., that night clearly?" This had been something that had been bugging Mikoto, and by extension Fugaku, for a while. Itachi, despite being a ANBU, was no fan of killing and violence. He actually preferred to do things, non violently. To a point, he had even created a Bug Repellent Jutsu instead of having to swat away insects. This also led to the fact that he was a vegetarian. So why would he kill his entire clan, even if he wanted to stop a coup? It was more his style to bind everyone and let Ibiki do the work. Itachi however, continued.
"I do not believe I came here to discuss the past, however I am here for something else...something heavily bound to the fate of both our clan, and the Uzumaki, the Kyubbi no Kitsune, the Nine Tailed Fox" the two Uchiha stiffened.
"We have come, for Uzumaki Naruto, the Jinchurriki of the Kyubbi no Kitsune" Kisame appeared confused.
"What was that you were spouting?" Itachi sighed.
"The fate of the Uchiha, and his own, are actually quite linked. As it was a Uchiha who controlled the Fox when it attacked the village so long ago, and thus bound into the boy. This led those in power on the elder council; namely the useless ones Koharu and Homura, to suspect one of the Uchiha here of controlling him. Something you all gave credence, for not fighting off the beast when it attacked" the Uchiha appeared, distraught.
"Of course we were a little distracted, somehow our, supposedly dead former head, and co founder of Konoha, Madara was trying to steal the secret tablet under the Naka shrine!" Fugaku yelled. Itachi didn't seem affected.
"However, this led to our clan being put on watch by order of the elders, despite the Sandiame's veto of it. This led to an increase in hostilities, until I was given the order. So if you look at it like that, we are responsible for Naruto's fate, and likewise he is responsible for ours, not that I blame him"
"I will admit, however, that I do believe what I had done, while stopping the potential for the Fourth Shinobi world war, had far worst of an impact on Sasuke then I had originally thought. I had hoped he'd become an avenger, and restore the clan free of suspicion, but instead he was made the puppet of those idiots on the councils, and turned into a mockery of my brother" Mikoto curled her hand into a fist
"Most likely, not only to give them more power in Konoha politically, but also because they knew of the Sharingan's power to control the Fox, and use him to turn Naruto into an emotionless weapon"
"Well, your a little late for your target. Naruto-san has left the village on a mission with Jiraiya-sama of the Sannin, and not to mention, your not leaving this village!" Fugaku entered a Taijutsu stance "Prepare to be taken into custody, Itachi" Mikoto was alarmed, apparently she couldn't push herself to fight her son. Itachi however, didn't appear to be affected.
"Well then, I may not remember what had happened, it is of interest if I am stronger than you after all, Tou-san" Mikoto, while not able to force herself to fight her son, turned towards his companion, who smirked.
"So, you really think you can fight me, pretty lady? Well then, prepare to eat my blade!"
