Her first memory was of fire, sitting in the garden on her mother's lap as her father showed one of her cousins the Grand Fireball Jutsu. Her last memory was also of fire, the forest burning around her as she defended her clansmen. Now though she was an Uzumaki, filled with the same fire to protect those she loves. The only problem, half her heart still belongs to an enemy clan.

If anyone had asked her what she expected out of life she might have told them a happy marriage, a good job, and maybe a couple of kids. If anyone had told her that she would die at forty in a freak accident she might have believed them. But if that same person had told her that she was unhappy with her life she would have scoffed. Her? Unhappy? She was always happy…..wasn't she?

When the Leaf Village finds itself in dire need of help, it never expected assistance to come from the least likely source.

Hinako didn't care, but she really did. Her miso soup was amazing. / Hinako/Shinomiya / written for caesar's palace shipping week

In Konoha, history repeats itself.

That was Tsunade. She was beautiful and badass and broken.

It was not normal for shinobi to grow as old as they were. Especially without retiring. They were well over thirty years over the average life expectancy. And in this largely un-ventured territory of old age they faced challenges largely unknown in the shinobi world. Like arthritis.

She lived a full life and died a peaceful death only to be reborn in a world she once considered fiction. Akiko chooses not to interfere with what she remembers of the plot and embrace the traditions of the women of her family and wander the lands. This plan ends in tatters when she meets one Kakashi Hatake, whom no matter how she tries to avoid, keeps showing up. SI/OC slow burn!

"For god's sake, can't your two clans stand in a perimeter of ten meters without trying to kill each other?" When a surgeon wakes up surrounded by dead bodies, she kind of wonders if she's dreaming until she's caught up between Uchiha's and Senju's war.

"Nothing about us was perfect or clear, but when Paradise calls me, I'd rather be here." What will it take for Jiraiya to finally catch a break with his Princess? (Canon-centric blurbs with a few side stories.)

A dark Sannin story

He has to understand after all these years... Tsunade and Jiraiya and a dream.

Naruto wasn't alone in his childhood, there was someone else there with him, a boy he could call friend. A boy with light spiky blonde hair, light brown eyes and a bit of a gambling addiction. A boy with a heritage just as interesting as his own. Not that either of them knew that.

During The Fourth Shinobi World War, Jiraiya is revived. He uses this chance to catch up with the one he left behind. Oneshot.

Completely off the wall FrankensteinxLunark story I wrote. It's a shame there aren't genres for "part sexy," "part crack," and "part actually serious." Please R&R.

Shinomiya Kojirō. Inui Hinako. Two pillars of the Japanese culinary world. And yet two completely different individuals. Their high schooling experience was rough and by no means will their adulthood be easier. But will they find solace in the warm embrace of the other? Or will they wander the hazy wasteland of being a chef alone forevermore? (One-shot, Shinomiya x Hinako)

I don't remember having breathing problems in my previous life, but at least in this time period I wasn't expected to become a shinobi. I wasn't born into a cursed family either, but that doesn't mean my life would ever be easy. Self-insert. Warring States Era. Semi AU!

Kakashi learns that silent alarms and Anko's adventurousness are never a good combination.

"The Uchihas are a cursed clan." Hatred, and vengeance were a given and Tobirama had always been so sure of this so why was it that when he turned around, an Uchiha was smiling at him? Tobirama/OC

Tobirama is known to be distant and uncaring will an arranged marriage change all that? Will Chikako warm his cold heart? WARNING! This story has MANY oc's, by necessity, of my own creation and very few canon characters due to the little we know about the time period. It is a love story, pure and simple. TobiramaxOC

A oneshot in honor of it being Jiraiya's birthday. Jiraiya has been traveling the world, and he bumps into a familiar face way out in the Hidden Waterfall Village. It's a happy coincidence really since, as it turns out, it's Jiraiya's birthday and he hasn't celebrated one since he left Konoha. It's a little sappy, but so is he. Rated T for language.

At the outskirts of Konoha, civilians are killed day and night, leaving two noble clans frustrated and desperate for loyalty among them. Two children, the age of ten, are chosen to fulfill the agreement of the arrange marriage. However, before they marry, the murders become confident and kill the Uchiha clan head, making the allied clans suspicious of one another. [EDITING]

Tobirama met a girl that changed his life. AU and Modern day. Werewolves and Vampires mentioned.

Ao asks Mei a question but he learns that Mei wasn't a cheerful or a nice person before she became the fifth Mizukage. What all does he learn about her? Enjoy the story please make comments.

The Uchiha's were a bloodthirsty merciless clan,Tobirama made that known very well. Yet no matter how sinister he made her clan out to be, she still couldn't bring herself to end his life as he lay unconscience on the battlefield, but instead took him in to care for him. As kind as she is, she sees light in even the darkest soul, despite the fact that he may never return her favor.

She wasn't the girl who changed his mind, or made him stay, or even gave him a good enough reason to live - but without a doubt, Itachi loved her anyway. From the beginning of his childhood, through the Uchiha massacre and his days in the Akatsuki up until his death, it was always her. ItachiOC. COMPLETE / Under construction.

The Story Is About a young girl who is the daughter of tsunade & jiraiya but things start happening in her life that makes her question who she is & why she looks so different and why does she have all these different powers .
