Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. I do own my original character, Yuki, though
Summary: Who is this friend of Naruto's? What's her connection to Gaara? And what's this? Sasuke's falling for her?
Sorry for not updating sooner. Thanks for the votes regarding pairings, the primary result is up:
Sasuke/Yuki
Naruto/Sakura
Gaara/Hinata
That seemed to be what a lot of people wants. I've decided I'm not doing a pairing for Gaara, so here's the question, do you want Naruto with Hinata or Sakura?
And a couple more things: should I stick to the storyline in the manga? Do you want Yuki in Team 7? Please provide me with ideas on how to write this fanfic. Thanks

- Next Day-
Yuki was currently in the Hokage's office, and sat down facing the Hokage.
"Hokage-sama. I believe you've sent for me. What is the state of this matter?"
Yuki was not in a good mood. A jounin had interrupted her training session with Naruto-kun earlier and told her that her presence was requested in the Hokage's office immediately.
Yuki had been training Naruto-kun in several academy jutsus like henge no jutsu and buushin no jutsu in the forest training grounds. She was frustrated, to say the least. For some reason, Naruto kept having difficulties extracting chakra and keeping up a constant output of chakra. She was just going to fine-tune Naruto's chakra control using the tree climbing exercise when that jounin appeared.
The current Hokage, Sarutobi the Third Hokage, took in Yuki's appearance, and mused.
A petite-looking blonde around 4'9", Yuki looked like an ordinary 9 year-old girl from a distance. Yet close up, this girl radiated power from the way she carried herself, tall and proud; her mesmerizing crystal cerulean eyes reflected great intelligence and showed a formidable opponent.
"Yuki-chan, Is it true that you declined the genin status from Iruka-sensei?"
"Yes, Hokage-sama" Yuki replied, frowning a little.
Why is everybody so adamant in convincing me to become a genin? This is so bothersome. I wish I were training or reading another technique scroll. Anything is better than this. This sucks.
"Ay, I was afraid so. You see, Yuki-chan, I do not believe that you can learn anything new in the academy. I am well aware of your friendship with Naruto-kun and your desire to keep by his side, but I cannot allow someone of your talent to be kept behind."
"I insist, Hokage-sama" Yuki said through clenched teeth.
"It will not do you, or Naruto-kun, any good if you are kept behind. You are allowing Naruto-kun to depend too heavily on you, physically and emotionally. He needs to learn to work well with other kids. Has it ever crossed your mind that you can't be by his side forever? Shinobis die, Yuki-chan, it's the way of life."
"Do you think I don't know that, Hokage-sama? I….I just don't know what I can do to help Naruto-kun achieve his full potential." Yuki sighed.
"I have a proposal for you, Yuki-chan."
"What is it, Hokage-sama?"
"You will accept the genin status, and travel the different countries to collect information for me, and in return, I will call you back when Naruto-kun becomes genin and guarantee you a spot in his team. What do you say?"
Yuki was stunned by Hokage-sama's offer. Leave Konohagure? Leave the place she has called home for five years and the one friend she truly cares for? And yet, the opportunities, the secret techniques of other hidden villages, just think of the stuff she may be able to learn!
"What kind of information are you talking about, Hokage-sama?"
"Just basic information, like any changes in customs and keeping an ear out for interesting gossip, this is a C-ranked mission because of its long-term duration. Do you accept, Yuki-chan?"
"I……I accept the mission. Hokage-sama, please promise me that you'll take good care of Naruto-kun while I am gone."
"Of course I will look after Naruto-kun. You have one day to pack your stuff. Report to my office tomorrow afternoon for your traveling documents." Sandaime handed Yuki her forehead protector and said.
"Hai, Hokage-sama. I understand"
