A/N: Heh. I just realised that this story, like my Black Lily starts off with a bet I know it seems a bit weird, but this is only for the first chapter. Why? Because it gives it edge, and I would never be able t continue writing like this I don't know when Chapter Two will be out...
Summary: Kyuubi was never sealed into Naruto. In fact, Kyuubi was 'defeated' in one blow. Naruto grew up a spoiled child with the Fourth for a father, Sasuke for a best friend, and Sakura was the one pining after HIM and he's got the world's biggest crush on Hinata... who likes Sasuke! But, Kyuubi didn't die. She was stripped of almost all of her demon powers andd reduced to a human child. Forced to grow up hated and abused by the village, Itami is overed a solution: A bet. If she can become Hokage before Naruto, she will win the respect she has always desired. If not? She will die. Seems like a hard choice, no? But when you have nothing to loose, and everything you've ever had, or ever could have had, is taken from you, what would you do?
Who are you?
What did I ever do to you?
Where are we?
When did this start?
Why do you always hurt me?
Please stop...
I promise I won't do whatever I've done to make you hate me anymore! I promise!
Just, please, stop.
You. Him. Her. Your children. Their children. Your mother. His father. Their aunts. Her uncle.
I know you all.
I see you all the time.
You come here every day.
A new reason, a new way to hurt me.
I don't know what I did, but please tell me.
I won't do it anymore.
Hurt you?
How could I?
Most of the time I can't even get up and out of my bed, and when I can you make sure that's stopped.
When- How?- could I have hurt you?
Kyuubi? Me? NO!
Kyuubi's dead.
Hokage-sama made sure of it!
I'm not her!
I'm telling the truth!
What do I have to do? What will keep you away?
A bet? I don't have any money...
My LIFE!? I couldn't!
Respect... heh... I wish...
You couldn't- wouldn't- really give it to me...
You lie! I'd never get it!
You can't be serious... you can't...
You hate me! Why should I trust you about this? You've lied before... every time you told me you'd stop...
Why is this any different?
I don't even know any of the signs to manipulate Chakra... how could I become Hokage?
Train me? You'd only hurt me...
I don't have a chance against him... He's got all the tutors... the friends... the power... the knowledge... the connections...
Win or die... Don't make me laugh!
You're just loking for an easy way to get rid of me...
Always laughing... always hurting... lying... yelling... hitting... wounding... You're all the same... you never change...
We both know I can't trust you...
I won't... I refuse to accept the bet...
I don't CARE if you'll feed and clothe me...
I don't care if you promise not to hurt me...
You'll only hurt me...
But I have nothing to lose...
You've taken it all away...
My life... My hope... My chance... My trust... My security... My childhood...
What other choice do I have?
Death?
I'll die someday... I may as well die DOING something...
I'll accept your bet...
Become Hokage, beating him, or die?
I have no chance, but you know? That's the best chance I'll have at anything...
