Chapter 7
At the border post
"Taichou, what the hell was that?" asked a young shinobi.
"Team's Delta and Echo, head out to find out what that was. Team's Alpha, Bravo and Charlie, stand by in case of an assault. The older Jonin shouted. Moments later, six Shinobi were racing through the trees in the direction of the scream.
With Naruko, same time
"Wh…what do you mean? I-I-I'm not r-royalty." stammered Naruko. (A/N: as her mask had been removed, I can refer to her real name)
"Someone's coming." She suddenly whispered, replacing her mask. "Hebi, Kuma. The two of you go into ambush position. Saru and myself will guard…" she trailed off.
"Asatsuyu. My name is Asatsuyu." The blue Kitsune said.
"…Asatsuyu-san." Naruko finished. Immediately Hebi and Kuma disappeared. A minute later the six Shinobi arrived.
'Four Chunin and two Genin.' Kitsune thought. Upon seeing the three figures, the group stopped, getting into a defensive stance.
"Stand down. We are Leaf ANBU." Kitsune called over to them, whilst signaling the two hidden ANBU to appear behind them.
'Scare them, but don't attack.' was the message. Silently the two ANBU dropped down behind the six Shinobi. Even from 30 meters away, Kitsune could feel the mischievous intent coming from them. She couldn't help but smirk beneath her mask. Signaling them to wait a moment, Kitsune stepped slowly approached the group until she was just under half-way between the groups. She saw a Chunin approach.
"How can we be certain that you are Leaf ANBU? We weren't notified of any ANBU operation in the area." He said. In answer Kitsune unsealed a scroll and handed it to him. His eyes widened when he saw the official Hokage seal on it. Handing it back, he apologized.
"You were only doing your job…" Kitsune began saying when suddenly the other 5 shinobi gave a loud shout of surprise. "…but they sure aren't paying attention to their surroundings." The Chunin in front of her was stunned. He then saw the blue Kitsune leaning against the tree.
"Demon." He shouted as he tried to push Kitsune out of the way…key word here is 'tried'. Grabbing him at the wrist, she shoulder threw him into a nearby tree. The other 5 shinobi were shocked at this.
"Please forgive our leader. She has Androphobia." Saru called over. "And the woman over there is not a demon. If you want to see demons, go pay the civilian council a visit." She added jokingly. Most of the Konoha shinobi laughed at that. They all knew that the civilian council was trying to interfere in shinobi affairs for years now. The only one not to laugh was Kitsune. If they could have seen the look on her face under the mask, they would have needed a change in under-garments; unlike Kitsune, they didn't know that the civilian council was responsible for a lot of the grief that she had experienced.
"As Saru said, Asatsuyu is not a demon. And forgive me for my reaction, Chunin-san. It was pure reflex on my part." She bowed to the man she had thrown earlier. He was still a little dazed, but nodded his head.
"Head back to your post. We will be following shortly." Kitsune said. Once the border guards had left, Team Kitsune turned their attention back to Asatsuyu.
Removing her mask, Naruko asked "Ok. What is this about me being your queen?" she had also hidden her other features during the encounter with the border guards, but she released them now.
"I am merely a seeker. Only the elders of the Kitsune tribe can answer that question." the blue Kitsune said.
"I am afraid I cannot make a detour to your tribe, Asatsuyu-san. We are currently on a mission." Naruko told her.
"Let me guess…finding the Kitsune summoning contract." Asatsuyu said with a vulpine smirk. The four ANBU were shocked.
"How?" Inu asked.
"Lucky guess. Besides, now that I have found you, I just need to report back to my elders. You don't need to find us. We will find you. Where can we meet you on say a week's time?" Asatsuyu asked. Naruko gave her the co-ordinates for her estate and watched as her fellow Kitsune gave her another bow and then disappeared in a puff of smoke.
"Well she was kinda hot." Saru said.
"Well know, you never told me you were into such things." Hebi teased. Saru lightly punched her arm. Everyone laughed at the joke.
"Admit it, Hebi-chan. You have the hots for people like Asatsuyu-chan." Inu joined in the teasing. Shi blushed at that.
"As do you, Inu-chan." Saru giggled. Naruko felt herself heat up slightly at the hidden implications.
"Sorry, but I'm taken." She said bluntly, much to the mock-horror of her team-mates, and created a shadow clone. Giving the scroll to the clone, she sent it to the outpost. Then she put her mask back on.
"If you want to have me, you'll have to ask my girlfriend. Let me warn you though, she may not be the type to share." She said.
"Is that an offer?" Hebi teased.
"Well I am pretty sure by now you know that I am a lesbian. And there is little I can hide from the one I love." Kitsune said and took on a thinking pose. "Hmm I wonder what would happen if I told Anko-kaa-chan about you three…" she thought out loud. The other three paled.
"Please don't. We don't want to be sent to…" they began simultaneously. Kitsune just laughed.
"She will probably just lay you first to see if you are good enough for me." Kitsune laughed, and then took off in the direction of home. Moaning, the other three followed her. Little did they know that they were in for a tough time.
One week later, the Castle
Ever since Naruko returned from her mission, she barely had a moments rest. Between Training with Anko and Yugao, as well as the ANBU training for Ino, she was almost constantly spending time with Ino, either in bed or at the sparring field. Fortunately, she could make Shadow clones, which she sent to study and practice her clans fighting styles as well as learning about other things, such as tactics and higher calligraphy. Soon she had also upped the seals on her body to the next level. Ino had, in addition to upping her own seals, started training the same way Naruko is: Nude from the waist up. It was during one of these half-naked sparring matches that the Kitsune arrived. She had a voluptuous body with wide hips and large E-cup breasts. She was using her brown 5 tails as clothes, wrapping them around her like a bandage. She was also carrying a large scroll. Behind her came three other Kitsune, each of them with a single tail and all of them identical, except for their color. The one had bright silver-grey hair and the second had crimson hair. Naruko recognized Asatsuyu as the third Kitsune. What surprised her, though, was that her, now official, ANBU squad members were with them (each one of them happily chatting with one of the young Kitsune). The elder Kitsune smiled warmly when she saw Naruko. Anko had arrived, though she didn't bother hiding anything. She had been tanning on the grass when the group arrived. She and Ino were surprised when the four Kitsune bowed to Naruko while the ANBU merely giggled. Naruko meanwhile had steam coming from her ears due to her blush.
"I greet you, Naruko-sama. I am Yasashi Chikyu, carrier and defender of the Kitsune Summoning Contract. The brown 5-tailed Kitsune said.
"I greet you, Naruko-sama. I am Meigetsu, the messenger." said the silver-gray Kitsune.
"I greet you, Naruko-sama. I am Guren, the Healer." said the crimson Kitsune.
"Once again I greet you, Naruko-sama. I am…" the sky-blue haired Kitsune began, but Naruko finished for her.
"Asatsuyu, the Seeker. May every morning bring new adventures to your life. It is good to see you again." Naruko smiled then turned to the other three.
"I greet you, Yasashi Chikyu-san. May the earth stay strong under your feet and support you during your travels. I greet you, Meigetsu-san. May the Moon light your path during your travels. I greet you, Guren-san. May the Crimson Flower guide your path to helping those in need." She greeted the other Kitsunes. All their faces lit up with what could only be described as joy. Just then, Hiruzen walked through the Gate…and immediately fell unconscious with a nose bleed.
"Ji-chan. Either you are a pervert or you are far too innocent to be Hokage." Naruko joked making everyone laugh.
"And you, Naru-koi, are to clueless for your own good." Ino said.
"Meh. Being like this has its benefits: less money used on clothes means more money for Ramen." Naruko returned. She then turned to her ANBU squad.
"And why exactly are you here, if I may ask?" The three girls looked at each other, then removed their masks.
"Sandaime-sama told us to come here and stay with you. Must say though, I am feeling a bit jealous…and a bit intimidated…by your home. Don't get me wrong, I think it looks great, just it looks like it is meant to withstand a bloody Shinobi War…" Inu said.
"Ok, I understand that it is an order from Jiji, but I only know your ANBU names and I get the feeling there will be some…added benefit…for you staying here." Naruko said. Immediately Ino spoke up.
"Spill it. NOW!"
"W-well we were friends since the academy days. One of the things that we bonded over was our…" she muttered the rest so nobody could hear her. All three of the girls were literally glowing red.
"Sorry, I didn't hear that. Could you repeat please." Naruko asked, curious. Even the Kitsune leaned forward to listen in.
"We are…t…ter…teraphiliacs." Inu stuttered and then fainted from embarrassment. (A/N: just to clarify to those who don't now, teraphiliacs are people who get aroused or turned on by monsters. Don't believe me? Google teraphilia.)
"A…and so i…is your lover." Kuma added, also stuttering. Ino paled and fainted from not having enough oxygen flowing to her head. Naruko sighed.
"We will continue this discussion later. For now, make yourselves comfortable. Yasashi-san, I'll meet you after in about ten minutes." (A/N: I am just shortening the name of the 5 tailed Kitsune) With that she picked Ino up and carried her to their room. On the way, she noticed that the 5 tailed Kitsune was following her.
"My Queen, there is something I need to discuss with you AND with your mate. It is about the Contract and your…status." Yasashi said. They didn't have to wait long. Using a method she hadn't used on Ino since the day she had first awoken in Ino's room at the Yamanaka estate, Naruko woke her up.
"Thank kami. I thought I'd never wake up from that nightmare." Ino said. Naruko looked at her curiously.
"Nightmare?" she asked. Ino took on a horrified expression.
"Don't ask. Please just don't ask." She half pleaded. Naruko nodded in understanding.
"Well now. That was an interesting method of waking up a mate." Yasashi giggled, then turned serious. "Just never do it to anyone else." She growled.
"Meh. I just use that method when time is short and only on Ino-koi." Naruko told her. Ino mock glared at her.
"Well now that the three of us are awake…" Yasashi put some emphasis on the last word. "…we can talk about the Kitsune Contract." Naruko and Ino perked up at that. "The old man who keeps cursing all the paper-work has agreed to let you sign the Kitsune summoning contract. And when I say you, I mean BOTH of you." Naruko and Ino stared at her. Yasashi then opened the large scroll on her back. There were numerous tabs that Naruko and Ino had to fill in.
"Ano, Yasashi-san. Are we the first people to form a Contract with the Kitsune tribe?" Naruko asked. She remembered Anko telling her about Summoning Contracts, that usually there had been several people who had signed the contract before.
"No. Only one couple can sign the Contract per generation, and the terms of the contract change depending on the summoners." Yasashi explained. "We Kitsune don't just let anyone sign the contract as well. There are numerous conditions that need to be met by a person in order for them to sign the contract; first and foremost, they need to be of Royal Blood. Second they must have someone they love AND they must have copulated at least twice with them." Naruko and Ino blushed. Sure they had Copulated, just more than twice…and they hadn't been silent while at it either.
"Third, both of them need to be as loyal as an Uzumaki." Yasashi continued. Both lovers smiled. They knew the saying 'They don't get more loyal than the Uzumaki.'
"Lastly, both sides need to have known the pain of losing their heart." Here Ino and Naruko winced as they remembered their relationship during the mission to Nami no Kuni.
"Since Naruko-sama here is of Royal Blood and has even started awakening her true powers, the first condition has been met. Also, judging by your reaction when I mentioned the second condition I am assuming you also meet those requirements." Both girls nodded crimson faced. "Next, as Naruko-sama is an Uzumaki by birth and Ino-sama would rather wallow in a pile of manure and then run through Konoha naked than become disloyal to her heart, the third condition has been met." Ino paled slightly, not because of what had been mentioned, but because…well…the alternative mentioned was true.
"I must ask you about the last condition though…" Yasashi began, but was interrupted by both Ino and Naruko, both of whom gave her an account of their feelings during the mission to Nami no Kuni. Yasashi raised an eyebrow.
"The fact that you kept your sanity at your age for going through all that speaks Volumes of your Mental strength. Impressive. Most impressive." She then told them about summoning, teaching them the hand-signs for the jutsu.
"Oh and I forgot to mention. You only get one summon each. That will be your personal summon." Yasashi said. "Also, some of the new summons tend to be…" she trailed off.
"Tend to be what?" Ino asked. Yasashi giggled.
After an explanation
Signing the Contract was relatively simple. All Ino and Naruko had to do was fill in several areas with their blood as ink.
Names: Uzumaki Naruko Yamanaka Ino
Race: Kyuubi no Kitsune Ningen
Allies: Konohagakure no Sato
Gender: Female Female
"Simpler than I thought." Ino commented. Naruko nodded. They had put their answers in adjacent tabs next to the questions (except for the allies part). As one they added their hand prints to the Contract, which then began glowing.
"Congratulations. The two of you can now summon a Kitsune." Yasashi said, smiling. Not being able to contain her excitement, Naruko immediately ran outside, followed by an equally excited Ino. As they went through the hand signs, Yasashi arrived.
With a smoke puff, Ino's summoned a 3 tailed platinum Blond Kitsune who held her tails in a similar fashion to Yasashi, causing Ino to blush slightly, but was happy, remembering Yasashi's explanation.
Flashback
"There are three main types of Kitsune: Playful, Seductive and Combat. The Playful and Seductive types all wear clothes; the former wears what is referred to as Casual clothes amongst you Humans. Seductive Types wear Kimonos of varying lengths, the longer the Kimono, the more seductive the personality. Combat types are easily mistaken for Seductive types due to their appearance. Simply, the more tails and the bigger the Bust, the stronger the Kitsune. The reason why they don't wear clothing is rather simple…end embarrassing." Here Yasashi paused, a small blush dusting her cheeks.
"Our Chakra is so potent that it would affect our clothes the instant we put them on. Those with a Fire affinity would have their clothes burst into flames. Those with a Wind affinity would have theirs shredded instantly. Those with an Earth affinity would find their clothes harden and crumble. Those with a Lightning affinity would have their clothes contract, making it hard to breath. Finally those with a Water affinity would find their clothes soaked to such an extent that their movements would get sluggish, if the clothes don't fall apart due to their weight."
Flashback end
Yasashi nodded, recognizing the summoned Kitsune.
"Well done, Yamanaka-sama. Your summon is a Combat Kitsune who specializes in defensive combat." Yasashi said. The blond Kitsune turned to Ino and bowed, giving Ino a view of her low D-cup bust. Ino bit her lower lip in jealousy.
"Greetings, Yamanaka-chan. My name is Kōsa. So I am contracted to this Brat?" she asked Yasashi, who nodded and giggled. Ino grew a tick mark.
"She also likes to act informally and holds those who are smaller than her in slightly less regard. She is very friendly once you get to know her though, and loyal to a fault to those she cares about. She likes to cook and is very helpful. You should be honored to have her." Ino's eyebrow twitched slightly.
"Well, Kōsa-san, if you don't like to address me formally, I will make it simple for you. I'll let you call me by my given name if I can simply call you Kōsa. Less talking for eveyone. Deal?" she asked. Said Kitsune lifted an eyebrow, then smirked.
"Girl, I like you. If you weren't already taken by her majesty, I'd kidnap you and make you my woman, Ino-chan." Kōsa said, making Ino blush. Suddenly Ino felt herself squashed between Kōsa's breasts as the Kitsune leapt forward and embraced her.
"Aww. You are so cute when you blush." Kōsa said. Ino now knew how the Demon cat, Tora must feel like. Naruko and Yasashi giggled at the two.
"Oh I forgot to mention. Kōsa act like a small child to those she considers friends. Now, Naruko-sama, it's your turn." Yasashi said.
Making the hand signs, Naruko slapped the ground. "Kuchiyose no Jutsu" she called out. A huge smoke cloud erupted from the floor. When the smoke cleared, Naruko found herself standing before a young girl whose 7 tails didn't bother to hide her mid D-cup breasts and her lower lips. Yasashi was shocked while Kōsa was hiding behind Ino, scared. The young Kitsune was just as tall as Naruko, about 5 foot 6 inches. Her smooth pure white hair fell was so long it was slightly dragging on the floor behind her. Looking at Naruko, the Kitsune smiled, releasing pheromones that made Naruko warm up slightly, but didn't affect her whatsoever. The smile widened and became friendly when the White Kitsune realized that Naruko and Ino weren't affected by her pheromones. She kneeled before Naruko.
"Naruko-Joō-sama. It is my greatest honor to have been summoned by one such as yourself. I am called Shirayuri." Said the Kitsune. Yasashi was surprised.
"Shirayuri-san. I never thought I'd see the day that you would show respect to anyone you have just met." She said. Shirayuri glared at her.
"Oba-sama would have my tails if I were to be disrespectful to the Queen. And besides, I like these two. Being able to resist my pheromones shows they have a large amount of potential." Shirayuri said. Naruko had a puzzled expression.
"Shirayuri-san is one of the rarest types of Kitsune in existence. She is the embodiment of all three main types of Kitsune, showing large potential in all fields even at an early age. As I mentioned, she is usually completely disrespectful to those she just meets. But Like Kōsa, she is fiercely loyal and devoted to those she likes. Being a Combat Kitsune, she cannot wear clothes. When she is playful, she can adapt to any age-group and have fun with them. Her Seduction side doesn't really need explaining, does it?" Yasashi said, earning a playful glare from Shirayuri.
"Alright. Now that we know who we are, I'd like to point out a few things. Firstly, JUST CALL ME Naruko ALREADY, DAMIT!" she Naruko shouted. Constantly being treated as royalty had been grinding away at her nerves.
"Secondly, what do you do to your hair that it looks so beautiful?" she asked, making everyone except for Shirayuri and Ino face palm. A long discussion ensued between the three.
"Has she always been so talkative?" asked Kōsa.
"Only if it is about a topic she enjoys talking about." Yasashi answered, then looked around. "Where are the triplets?" she asked. Anko looked at her with her usual smirk.
"The three ANBU girls took them to get to know them better." Yasashi smiled at that.
Time skip, 2 weeks later
During the past two weeks, Naruko met Konohamaru in person (A/N: Their relationship is similar to the anime, except there is no perverted Jutsu and no hugging between the two). She was horrified by what he had to say about his training with a Jonin called Ebisu: Lectures, lectures…nothing but lectures. No physical exercises, no chakra training, not even giving him any exercises even related to being a shinobi. Naruko was by now already coming up with a plan to give Ebisu a trip to hell.
That evening she and Ino had gone on a date to Ichiraku's. They had (rather Ino had) learned early on in their relationship that Naruko wasn't welcomed by most, if not all, restaurants other than Naruko's favorite Ramen Temple (A/N: Yes. She calls it a Ramen Temple). This time though, Naruko paid for her meal (read: snack) of three bowls of Misu ramen and even began paying her tab. Afterwards they had a romantic time sitting in each other's arms on the head of the fourth Hokage.
When they returned to the Castle, they heard the newest residents giggling and squealing, making them both smile. Things have become a lot livelier since the three Kitsunes and the three ANBU moved in.
Flashback
"My real name is Suzume." Said the brunette. "I like…" she looked at Meigetsu, who blushed, showing mutual feelings. "…my friends, Genjutsu, Ninjutsu and animals in general. I dislike those who look down on my friends and Kunoichi in general. Also, although I don't dislike males, I don't like them either. As for my dreams…I have never really had any dreams as I was content with what I have."
The ravenette introduced herself next."My real name is Kuroka. I like Guren-chan, my friends, Taijutsu, Botany, Hot springs and exploring. I dislike rapists, bullies, Bandits, people who can't tell the difference between a scroll and the kunai it seals and MALES. I also haven't given much thought about my future." She lovingly laid her hand on a blushing Guren's thigh.
Lastely the blond introduced herself. "My name is Umi. I like…" Umi blushed when she looked at Asatsuyu, who smiled back at her. "…my friends, Nature, Swords, causing Havoc to my opponents, hot springs and Konoha. I dislike males, rapists, fangirls,…" she listed at least 15 things she didn't like. "…My dream had been to join ANBU. Now that I am in ANBU, I don't have one." Asatsuyu laid a hand on her shoulder.
Ino giggled, making the 6 new residents look at her. You three," she said, speaking to the three young kunoichi. "…have dreams similar to mine…and for each of us, SHE has a tail." Ino continued to giggle, while everyone blushed, knowing it was true. Naruko joined Ino, giggling.
"Just keep your activities quiet when you get a room, ok." She said. Anko snorted.
"As if you are one to talk. When the two of you go at it, one can hear Ino moan from the out-door bath." Ino blushed deeply. Naruko smirked.
"Are you so jealous about us, kaa-chan?" she asked. "If so, why don't you ask Iruka Sensei out?" she teased. Anko paled at that.
"How did you know?" she asked.
"You just told me." Naruko answered smiling victoriously. Anko was stunned for a moment, then growled. "Come 'ere, you!" she shouted as she chased Naruko around. Everyone watching laughed at the dislay.
Flashback end
"Well, Naruko-san, Ino-san. We have nominated you to take part in the upcoming Chunin exams." Yugao said. Naruko and Ino smiled and gave each other a hug, congratulating each other.
"Just remember to go easy on your opposition. No one needs to know about your training with ANBU." Yugao added. Anko just snorted.
"Naruko, just remember not to throw the boys too hard and keep the girls innocence intact." She teased. Naruko playfully gave her a "puppy eyes jutsu".
"Aw, Mom. Even Sasuke-teme?" she asked. Anko gulped. Naruko wasn't giving her a normal "puppy eyes jutsu" but an upgraded version that even she found hard to resist: the "vulpine puppy eyes jutsu". Naruko and Ino knew that their senseis were being constantly asked (read: ordered) by Sasuke to teach them something, each time he was sent off sulking (If it was Yugao) or was sent flying (If it was Anko). He constantly said that Kakashi was teaching him things, but that he wasn't learning enough jutsu. He even challenged Naruko several times to spars (A/N: Think of is like the rivalry between Kakashi and Guy, with Naruko being Kakashi and Sasuke being Guy), all of which she without using Nin-, Ken- or advanced Tai-jutsu.
"As much as I am tempted to make an exception for that brat, I must still say no. He see's you as a rival, which is good as it takes his mind away from his blood-lust and revenge. I just hope Bakashi doesn't live up to his name and teach him THAT jutsu…" Anko said. Naruko was immediately put into a depressed state. Ino tried to cheer her up.
"Don't worry, Naru-koi. I asked Kurenai-sensei to teach me a rather difficult Genjutsu, the "Jigoku de Ai Jutsu". It will make him feel tied to a chair and he is forced to…" she whispered the rest into Naruko's ear. Naruko grinned eavily, making even Anko sweat a bit.
Team 7 apartment
Sasuke suddenly felt a massive chill crawling up his spine.
Chapter 8
As they made to the Building where the first part of the exam was to be held, Ino was happily chatting to Naruko about what their future would be like when they were Chunin.
"Well for one, there would be more exciting missions…" Naruko joked. Ino scowled. The last time they had an 'exciting' mission, both of them had to deal with major emotional issues.
"I'll pass on that. I am looking forward to the periods between missions though." She said with a vulpine voice, making the message clear to Naruko. Their conversation was interrupted when they saw a large group of people trying to enter a building. Ino took Naruko's Hand in her own and whispered "Kai". Suddenly Naruko saw what was going on. There had been a genjutsu surrounding the building making it look like the one they should be going to. Still holding Naruko's hand, Ino lead her Girlfriend o the correct building. Once inside, they saw a group of shinobi inside already. One of them, a man with a grey pineapple hairstyle and glasses, walked over to them and introduced himself.
"I am Yakuski Kabuto. Congratulations on making it here. As you can see, over half of this year's applicants didn't notice the genjutsu. If you seek any information about anyone here, feel free to ask me. I have a lot of information on most of the people here." He said.
'He smells of snakes." Naruko thought. After she and Ino introduced themselves, Naruko was about to ask about a red haired shinobi from Sunagakure no Sato when Sasuke joined the conversation.
"What can you tell me about this bitch?" he asked, pointing at Naruko, who bristled slightly. Taking out a pack of Cards, Kabuto made a single handed Tiger hand sign, then seemingly picked a card at random. Flipping it over, they all saw that is was about Naruko.
"Let's see here. Uzumaki Naruko, rank Genin. She is part of Team 11 under Jonin Uzuki Yugao and tokubetsu jonin Mitarashi Anko, the latter of whom legally adopted Naruko some time ago. She has completed 38 D-rank missions 6 C-rank missions and 1 B-rank mission. Her favorite jutsu is the Kage Bunshin no Jutsu and she has immense Chakra reserves. She also sufferes from a severe case of Androphobia." Kabuto said surprised. "Other than being known as a prodigy in Kenjutsu and Fuinjutsu, nothing is really known about her." Alarm bells went crazy inside Naruko's head. The fact that she was talented in Fuinjutsu was an A-class secret, yet Kabuto knew about it. She made a note to contact the Hokage about it.
"Now young lady, you had someone you wished to know about." Kabuto said to Naruko.
"A suna shinobi named Gaara." She answered, remembering the time she met the group from Suna.
Flashback
Naruko was giving Konohamaru some pointers on Chakra control when the boy bumped into a boy with purple facepaint and black clothes. Beside him was a blond girl who was carrying a large folded fan.
"Watch where you are going brat." The boy growled as he lifted Konohamaru by the scruff of his neck.
"Put him down, Suna shinobi-san." Naruko told him. The boy smirked.
"I don't think so. This brat needs to apologize for…" he began but froze when he saw the deadly aura coming from the fire-ette.
"That 'brat' is the Hokage's grandson. Now unless you want to turn this into an international incident, I'd sugest you put him down now." She growled. The blond haired girl paled.
"Kankura. Put the brat down now." She told him.
"But…" he started saying, but seeing the expression on the girls face, he relented. Letting Konohamaru drop, he hissed,
"What was that about, Temari-nee-san?"
"You nearly ruined my chance to finally become a Chunin, you idiot." She hissed back. Her eyes though spoke of something different. Just then a red-haired boy arrived in a sand shunshin.
"Temari, Kankuro. What were you doing?" he asked with a voice colder that ice.
"Nothing mush, Gaara. Just having a conversation with the lass here." Kankuro said and Temari nodded. Both were scared shitless.
'What is this immense malice I am feeling from him?' Naruko thought behind a straight face. Sending Konohamaru home to do the practice she had given him, she turned to the three Suna shinobi.
"My name is Uzumaki Naruko." She greeted politely.
"My name is Sabaku no Temari. The idiot with the make-up is called Kankuro and the one with the red hair is Gaara. We are siblings." Temari said.
"Not to be rude or anythin, Temari-san, but Kankuro san isn't wearing make-up, but war-paint…" She saw Kankuro smile a bit.
"Finally, someone who see's the markings for what they are." He almost called out, but restrained himself to a low voice.
"…which has been applied to make it look like he is gay." Naruko finished, making Kankuro lose his happy smile. In its place Naruko saw a massive amount of hatred welling up.
"However, I can give you several styles you can have a look at that are easy to apply, make you look intimidating to more than just straight males and will not make you look gay…unless you keep using that girly pink paint…" Naruko told him, removing a scroll from a pouch. Opening it, she began to paint a few pictures that were indeed easy to apply. Temari shuddered a bit when she imagined Kankuro with some of the styles.
"I'll take that offer, but what would you like in return, Naruto-chan." He said, moving forward slightly with an easy to read intention on his face.
"For one, I'd like you to stay away from me. I am an androphobic lesbian and already have someone I wish to spend the rest of my life with." Kankuro nearly tripped over his own feet after hearing this.
"Second, I'd like you to try to not cause any more problems than you already have. If you put on one of these war-paint styles, most people would stay out of your way. Third, I'd like Gaara-san to stop staring at me, please." She nearly pleaded the last bit. Gaara was indeed staring at her, but not her face. Walking slowly towards Temari, giving Kankuro the scroll along the way, she whispered,
"Does Gaara-san always look at girls in that way? I mean I can physically feel is gaze on my Tits…" Temari gave her a sad smile.
"Unfortunately he doesn't have many friends back home, and none of them are female. (A/N: Yes. I made a less dark Gaara. Not to worry though, he still has Shukaku sealed in a shoddy seal. Be surprised by the events) His utter lack of emotions tends to scare them away. Don't worry though. He isn't a pervert. He just doesn't have the social skills to make us females notice him." Temari told her. "I am just glad you are here now, because he now has his eyes on someone else's Tits." She added in a whisper.
"That just makes this situation awkward." Naruko deadpanned, while she slipped a note into Temari's pocket.
As she was walking away, Naruko felt the stare move from her breasts to her butt and thighs.
'Not a pervert my ass!' she thought.

"Here we go." She was brought out of her memories by Kabuto, who was holding out a card.
"Sabaku no Gaara, the youngest son of the Kazekage. Unknown number of D- and C-rank missions, a couple of B-ranks and even an A-rank mission whilst being a Genin. Like his teammates are his two siblings, Sabaku no Temari and Sabaku no Kankuro. Other than that nothing is really known about him, except for one puzzling rumor. He apparently completed all his missions without receiving even a single scratch on him." Kabuto said in a low voice so that only the few people in the immediate vicinity could hear him.
'He either has insane talent or a healing ability equal that or greater than mine or he has ridiculously insane physical resistance do damage. He didn't seem to have any of those though…' Naruko thought
(A/N: I am going to skip the first set of exams because as Naruko isn't an idiot like in the main story, she aced the exam, with a bit of help from Ino using a Telepathy Jutsu… Anyway, the second part of the exam was still in training ground 44)
After exiting the room, Naruko gathered everyone from teams 7, 8, 9 and 10. Together they made their way to the next exam location. When Neji asked what this was about, Naruko answered,
"Stay away from the Suna shinobi." Everyone gave her 'Are-You-Stupid' stares. "Look, I know they seem to be weak, but trust me when I say this: Stay away from them. Especially Gaara, the one with the red hair and the giant gourd on his back. The guy reeks of blood and death. His siblings do too, but nowhere near the intensity of him. Also, he is socially awkward." She continued. She could still see doubts in their eyes, but at least they were now considering what she had said. Hinata asked,
"What do you mean by socially awkward?" Naruko told them about her earlier meeting with the Sand Siblings. The girls were horrified at the pseudo perverted habits of Gaara while the guys are laughing at their expense. Just then Temari approached them.
"Greetings Naruko-san. I didn't know you were partaking in the exams as well." She said, scaring the hell out of the guys who didn't see her approach.
" Good day, Temari-san. Where are your brothers?" Naruko asked.
"Gone ahead to Training field 44." Came the answer, much to Naruko's relief.
"Thank Kami. If I have to suffer him staring holes at my tits again, he may just kill me for trying to run away." Naruko said. While everyone blushed at that, Temari just grinned.
"He would actually…unless you interest him that is." Her grin turned into a smile at the looks of horror on their faces. "Well, see you brats later." She said and left.
In front of Training field 44, 2 minutes later
Morino Ibiki was staring (read: glaring) down at the assembled crowd of Genin, releasing a small (by his standards) amount of KI.
"What you see before you if the Forest of Death. Here, there is a chance that you may die, either from fighting another team or from the dangers that lurk in the forest." He said in a deep intimidating voice. Naruko knew why he was putting up the act…he was trying to decrease the number of participants. Looking around, she saw about 30 Genin walk away, muttering something about not being paid enough for this.
Having achieved his goal, somewhat, he had several Chunin hand out scrolls to the individual teams. He then announced the rules. (A/N: same rules as in the anime. Get the Earth scroll from another team if you have a Heaven Scroll and vica versa) Naruko and Ino received a Earth scroll. At his command, every team then entered the Forest from various different locations. Less than half an hour in, Naruko and Ino were ambushed upon by a team of hidden grass shinobi. Needless to say Naruko smelled them and and warned Ino about the team before they deliberately sprung the trap. After a short battle, two of the grass shinobi were down and the last one was backed up against a tree.
"Which scroll do you have?" Naruko asked. The shaking boy lifted an earth scroll. Naruko showed their own scroll, indicating that they didn't need to continue fighting. As they were leaving, the Grass ninja asked,
"Who the hell are you?"
"Just two normal sword-wielding Konoha Shinobi." Ino answered, making it sound like all the other Konoha teams were as strong as theirs. The shinobi paled at that, then tossed them his scroll. Picking up his comrades, he headed straight for the nearest exit.
When he was out of sight, Naruko spun Ino to face her and gave her a long kiss.
"Did you have to put us on the same level as the teme?" she asked, gently groping Ino in mores code.
'There-is-another-Team-up-ahead.' She signalled. 'They-know-we-are-here-and-heading-right-for-us.'
Ino was blushing by now, but she knew it was one of Naruko's tactics to prevent an enemy from seeing the message being passed. They also got to kiss, so Ino didn't really mind. During the next kiss, Ino darted her tongue in and out of Naruko's mouth, also in mores code.
'Let's-give-them-a-warm-welcome.' She signaled. Both of them began running through various hand signs and ended together.
"Fūton: Reppusho." Naruko shouted.
"Katon: Enryu." Ino shouted.
"Karyu no Jutsu." They said together. The approaching team was surprised at the sudden appearance of an enormous dragon. Fortunately they didn't know that it was only a low B-rank jutsu, the parent Jutsu being a D-rank and C-rank respectively. Still, one of them was unfortunate enough to be roasted by the flames. The team had barely recovered from the surprise when Naruko and Ino engaged them in close quarters. Minutes later, they had defeated the all female team, who appeared to be from Amegakure no Sato. This time, however, Naruko offered a trade to the team, who were still able to stand.
"We have a pair of earth scrolls. How about we trade and you let us be on our way?" she asked. The three Rain shinobi just starred at her. But they nodded eventually. Naruko and Ino stayed with them for a short while as Naruko applied first aid to the Kunoichi's wounds. She had been the one to get hit with the initial fire jutsu. Naruko decided to have some fun with them.
"I have a question. Which do you prefer: Males or Females?" the three Ame Kunoichi looked at her with a 'Seriously?' expression.
"Males." They said in unison.
"Aww. That's too bad. The two of us happen to be lesbians. So maybe we could convince you to…" She didn't finish as the three kunoichi high tailed through the trees away from them. "…Stay away from us." Naruko finished, making Ino giggle. Naruko then turned to her girlfriend.
"Let's get to the tower now and enjoy some peace and quiet." She proposed. Ino looked at her.
"I may just give you something better, such as a pair of cushions…" Ino didn't finish as Naruko grabbed her hand and set off at high speed in the direction of the tower.
Ame shinobi, that moment
"I vote we stay away from those two. If we face them again, they may just have their way with us." One of them said. The other two nodded in agreement. Suddenly they were thrown from their feet by a sonic boom.
"The fuck? I didn't know the Otogakure teams were nearby." The bandaged kunoichi said. Looking around, they found they had forgotten where they hell they were.
"Oh Shit." The three said together.
With Team 11
"Naru-koi. I think we just past the Ame team from earlier." Ino whispered into Naruko's ear. Naruko was moving at near sonic speeds by pushing a large amount of Chakra into her legs. She had also removed her training seals completely.
"What?" Naruko shouted, but Ino couldn't hear anything. She realized that due to the speed, their voices didn't carry. Reaching around to grab Naruko's breasts she squeeze-signaled the message from earlier. Ino squeaked when Naruko answered by squeezing her buttocks.
"Did-we?-I-did-not-notice." Ino was trying to suppress the emotions that were rising from her heart, knowing they would be sated later. Instead she lifted her head a bit and enjoyed the air flowing through her hair as the two of them raced along.
Timeskip, 2 hours later
Anko was looking down at her two pupils. They had arrived about one and a half hours ago. Since then, Naruko had been sleeping with her head on Ino's lap while Ino combed and tended to Naruko's hair. It had grown longer since their mission to Nami no Kuni, and Ino was busy braiding it in three individual braids, each with a Kunai at the end of it. They had arrived 10 minutes after the Suna team, which didn't surprise Anko and Yugao as it did the other Jonin senseis. They had been issued a room, but the two Genin decided to stick around in the gathering hall for now. Naruko had sent a shadow clone to set up some privacy seals in their room, a procedure that would take until late evening. Ino was finishing up Naruko's second braid and was about to start on the third when they were approached by the team from Suna.
"Naruko. Sit. Stay." Ino drew out the last word in a commanding voice, using a tone that one would use on a naughty pet. She had felt Naruko twitch when Gaara approached, giving his drilling stare.
"And I thought Temari-nee-san's hair was a pain to take care of." Kankuro laughed. Temari glared at him, but couldn't bring herself to hit him. That was done by Naruko herself. Quicker that the eye could see, she had drawn her sword and slashed several times at Kankuro. Suddenly Kankuro felt cold. Looking down, he noticed that he only had his underpants on. The rest was all lying in shreds on the floor together with some hair.
'Hair?' he thought. Lifting his hands to his head, he was horrified to find that he was left with only with a thick strip of hair running from his forehead all the way to the back of his neck.
"Sand exhibitionist." Naruko mumbled. It looked as though she hadn't moved at all. Ino was still gently braiding her hair. Kankuro meanwhile was dressing himself in another set of clothes, embarrassed at what happened. Temari was giggling. Gaara meanwhile was still staring at Naruko's breasts. Just then Anko arrived.
"Hey Gaara, how about you look at those instead." Temari told Gaara (Not that Anko minded). Naruko visibly relaxed, making Temari smile. Kankuro meanwhile went to get something to eat. Leaving Temari to speak with the two lovers.
"I am surprised you arrived shortly after us." She said.
"Well, Ino-chan offered to give me a lap-pillow whilst she braided my hair." Naruko mumbled sleepily. Shortly afterwards Ino and Temari heard Naruko snore softly.
"The two of you must be close." Temari commented, sitting down next to Ino who smiled.
"It isn't widely known, but the two of us are an official couple. We will have to wait a few years until we can marry though…and before you ask, yes I did just say that. We are soul mates through and through. If there is someone you love, you'll know what I am talking about." Ino told her, pulling the three ropes of hair through the loop in the Kunai, then slicing the ends into the existing braids so they won't come undone. Finding herself with nothing to do, Ino began scratching Naruko's head, especially behind Naruko's 'faux' fox ears. Temari giggled at the display of affection.
"Well the one I think I have feeling for probably think I am not worth the time." She said sadly. Ino perked at that. "I am horrible at doing chores at home, I see almost every problem from a military point of view and I have little to no experience with talking to males outside of my family and the military." Temari explained. Deciding to leave the two in each other's company, she went to see what Gaara was up to. She found him idly chatting to a group of Chunin and a purple haired woman whose large bust made Temari's eyebrows teitch frantically in jelousy.
'Do most woman in Konoha try to make me look flat?' she thought envious.
"Oi, Naruko-chan, Ino-chan. Get yer asses over here." Anko called out. She had managed to get the red head o stop staring at her breasts by pulling his face right into her cleavage. He did pass out, but he didn't have a nose bleed. He had awoken moments later and was now acting like a normal person, even starting a conversation on how to grow plants in very sandy soil for instance. Much to both Naruko and Ino's delight, Gaara turned out to be quite interested in plants. He said that they didn't have many in their Village.
Evening, Naruko and Ino's room at the centre of training ground 44
Lemon Alert skip if you don't want to read it.
Naruko was still sleeping when Ino carried her into their room. Looking at the sleeping face of her lover, Ino decided to give in to the roaring feelings inside of her. Smirking, she shed all her clothes and equipment, folding and placing it neatly on one of the two beds. Then she carefully began peeling the clothes of of Naruko, not knowing that Naruko had been awake for some time now and was just pretending to sleep. She had just finished folding Naruko's clothes when she was suddenly grabbed from behind by Naruko who began kneading her breasts. Ino's moan became a gasp when she felt something fluffy move between her legs. She looked down just in time to see Naruko's tail begin to move forward and backward, gently brushing against Ino's moistening lower lips. Shuddering in pleasure, she turned her head.
Naruko, upon seeing Ino turn her head leaned forward and planted a loving kiss on Ino's lips. Not breaking the kiss, Naruko turned Ino around and pulled her close with one arm whilst the other was teasing her lower lips, which were leaking a bit.
"Ohh, Naru-koi. I just can't get enough of you." Ino said, breaking the kiss. Naruko grinned at that.
"Well then why don't we get more of us?" she asked. Ino looked at her confused until Naruko made a certain hand sign. Grinning she followed suit.
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu." They said together, creating 2 clones each. While each of the clones paired up, the real Naruko pushed the real Ino against the wall and knelt before her. This time she didn't need to get her wet.
"You are such a bad girl, Ino-koi." She said in sultry voice, her breath hitting Ino's folds.
Shuddering, Ino said, "Then give me my punishment, you equally naughty girl." She said in the same sultry voice as Naruko. As Naruko began to lick, kiss and suck the dripping lips, Ino let out a gasp and looked at their clones. The one pair was busy sucking at each other's breasts whilst the other pair was rubbing their lower lips together while they were touching each other's breasts. With a gasp, Ino climaxed, and then pushed Naruko onto the bed. As Naruko fell, Ino dived forward. Now it was her turn Naruko moaned as she felt Ino's fingers enter her. She arched her back when Ino touched a particular sensitive spot. As Ino continued to finger Naruko, she suddenly felt someone else's tongue enter her. Looking back, she saw one of her clones had crawled up behind her and was happily licking away at her lower lips. Looking further back, she saw a Naruko clone lying on its back with her face between clone-Ino's thighs slurping up the juices. Just as both originals were about to climax, the last pair of clones popped from having climaxed themselves. This caused both the clones and the originals to climax, hard. The clones dispelled, making Naruko and Ino temporarily faint from pleasure.
"Round Two?" Naruko asked, kissing Ino. Smirking, they made more Shadow clones. This time though they all took part in one large orgy. They were so drunk on pleasure that they didn't care whom they kissed or licked, resulting in either Naruko or Ino to make out with one of their own clones. As one the entire group climaxed, the clones dispelling and the originals collapsing in each other's arms. Both of them fell asleep in odd positions, Ino with three of Naruko's fingers stuck in her lower lips; Naruko with Ino's mouth on her nipples. Neither of them cared that the bed they were on was literally soaked in love their love juices and sweat.
Lemon Scene over
Next morning
Naruko was the first to wake up…again. Looking down she smiled as she saw Ino unconsciously sucking at her nipple, which hurt a bit. Noticing the wet blankets underneath her, she thought,
'We really did it now…' with a smile. Gently removing her fingers, which she found still embedded inside Ino, she gently removed her nipple from Ino's mouth and pulled said girl to her head. Kissing Ino awake, she said,
"Good morning, Hana-koi. Sleep well?"
"My legs hurt like hell but I feel great otherwise." Ino said, returning the kiss. Just then, they heard a knock on the door. Grumbling that they were interrupted, they quickly got dressed on night-gowns and opened the door. Outside stood Temari.
"Forgive me for waking you, but I need to talk to the two of you." She said. Ino and Naruko looked at each other at hearing the worried tone in her voice. Stepping aside to allow Temari access, they let her into the room and closed the door behind them. Guiding her to the single table, they prepared some tea, which Temari gratefully accepted.
"My brothers and I have spoken with our Jonin-Sensei last night and agreed that we should warn both you and the Hokage about an incoming Invasion by Oto, Kumo and several smaller Villages. The Suna Shinobi forces have their hands full dealing with large numbers of Bandits who began appearing some time ago, so we cannot send any aid to our Leaf friends." She said. Ino was shocked.
"Why are you telling us this now?" Naruko asked.
"We received word from our Father that he will be unable to send reinforcements because the Bandit groups have begun uniting recently. The original plan was to destroy the Bandits and then send reinforcements before the invasion began. Now however, Suna may be facing a civil war. Our Jonin Sensei, Baki-sensei, decided to inform the Leaf about what we knew." Temari answered. She let the words sink in before asking,
"What do mean with being able to help Gaara with his Seal?" she asked.
"Oh that? I am a prodigy at Fuinjutsu. I can tell that your youngest brother has something sealed inside him. I could have a look at it and possibly either remove the seal or strengthen it." Naruko said. Temari stared at her.
"How do you know that he has a seal on him?" she asked. The reply came almost instantly.
"The way he expresses his emotions seem abnormal, even for someone who has been trained to utterly suppress them. I have gone through several situations and the only one that made sense was that he had a shoddy seal somewhere on him that is interfering with his everyday life. Also the rings around his eyes seem to indicate he isn't sleeping well." Naruko said.
"You will have to speak to Baki-sensei about that then. I don't have the clearance to discuss something like that." Temari sighed. "When we speak to the Hokage, I'd like the two of you to be there." With that she left the room.
'I am glad I didn't go to them last night. I don't think therapy would have helped with what I'd have seen there.' Temari thought as she walked away. She had smelled a sweet scent from one of the two beds, where the sheets were crinkled, indicating both girls had more than just slept in it. Forcing the thought out of her head before it was completed; she made her way down to the assembly area to meet up with her team and sensei.
Chapter 9
Time skip, Day 5 of round 2 of the Chunin Exams
"There are far fewer teams here than I expected." Naruko muttered as she looked around the room. Only around 11 teams, excluding Naruko's team and the Suna Team, had made it to the tower over the past 5 days. Teams 7, 8, 9 and 10 were amongst them. There was one other team from Konoha, two from Oto, the all-female team from Amegakure that Naruko and Ino had defeated, and three other teams from various different smaller villages, including one from Kusagakure. One of the Kusa-nin had hair of a similar shade to the parts of Naruko's hair that are red. Both Hinata and Neji commented that the girl also had a huge amount of chakra, at least Jonin level amounts. She also wore glasses over her her pupil-less red eyes. (A/N: from here on its runs mostly similar to the original timeline. The only differences are that there are more fights, but Kabuto leaving, the fight between Hyuugas, Chouji's fight, Tenten vs. Temari, Kankuro's fight, Sasuke's fight and Shino's fight are all canon…no need to repeat them)
Battle number 7: Shikamaru vs. Kuso shinobi
Shikamaru caught his opponent in his Shadow Bind technique when said opponent charged in.
Battle number 8: Sakura vs. Karin from Kusagakure
Sakura charged in blindly when Karin had insulted her Teammates, leaving her completely open for a counter attack, which Karin exploited. Delivering a swift and brutal Taijutsu combo, Karin easily won the match.
Battle number 9: Kiba vs. Ame kunoichi
Kiba rapidly closed the distance between him and his opponent. After a short but intense taijutsu melee, Kiba gained the upper hand and used one of his clans' jutsu, which shredded the kunoichi's clothes as she tried to dodge. Needless to say, the kunoichi surrendered quickly, trying to cover her modesty. She was horrified when Naruko appeared beside her placing a blanket around her shoulders.
Battle 10: Naruko vs. Tsuchi Kin
Kin began the battle by hurling several senbon at Naruko whilst she was charging at her. Naruko stopped when she was well outside hand-to-hand combat range, surprising everyone except for Anko, Yugao and Ino. Twisting her body, Naruko hurled her kunai-braids at Kin, landing hits on the kunoichi. The kunai went deep into her flesh, making Kin collapse from the pain. After Naruko was declared winner, she told Kin in a threatening voice.
"You are lucky that I avoided your vital areas. Word of advice: do not trust Orochimaru." With that Naruko left.
Battle 11: Lee vs. Kusa Genin
Lee got caught in the wide area Genjutsu the Kusa Genin cast, forcing Lee to admit defeat. Gai tried to comfort him his way, much to the horror of those nearby.
Battle 12: Kino vs. Yamanaka Shiro
Naruko was cheering loudly as Kino beat the living daylights out of Shiro. (A/N: the details would be too gruesome for me to add…I don't want to turn this into a Gore.) Ino meanwhile was not particularly happy. On one side she was happy he got beat due to him bullying Naruko when they were younger. On the other side, he was still her brother. Torn between her lover and her brother, she decided to remain neutral on the matter.
Battle 13: Ino vs. unknown Genin
Ino was being pushed back by her opponent. He was wielding a pair of Tiger claws and was sweeping them viciously in front of him, trying to land a hit on her. When they eventually did land, they only tore her clothes. Fortunately, thanks to Naruko rubbing off on her, she found that she wasn't all to embarrassed about it. The boy however got a full view of her breasts, sending him flying with a nose bleed.
Stunned, the referee said, "Winner by nose bleed, Yamanaka Ino." The man then realized what he had said. By then Ino was back with Naruko who handed her her jacket, leaving Naruko on a dense mesh shirt that hugged her body.
"How are you not embarrassed by that?" several Kunoichi asked, most of them blushing, all of them wanting to know her secret. Waving her finger at them, Ino told them,
"Talk to me again after the exams." They sulked at that and left.
Battle 14: Gaara vs. unknown Genin
The Genin fainted when Gaara flooded the room with KI. Not many were surprised at this; Gaara was been leaking KI since the preliminary tournament began.
(A/N: I'm not going to go through all the battles, therefore I am skipping those, as well as the speech afterwards)
Many were surprised when the proctors told them that the roster for the final tournament would only be revealed at the tournament itself, and that all the contestants had a month to train for the event.
Next morning, at the Hot springs
Naruko was walking with Konohamaru past the Hot springs when they saw Ebisu peeking at the woman in the springs. Getting Konohamaru's attention, Naruko whispered instructions into his ear, instructions for a technique that Kakashi was rather fond of using. Doing as he was told, Konohamaru crept up behind Ebisu.
"KONOHA HIDEN TAIJUTSU OUGI: SENNIN GOROSHI!" he shouted, sending Ebisu flying over the wall…and into a hot spring with full of Jonin-class Kunoichi, including Kurenai and Anko. (Naruko and Konohamaru later learned that Ebisu was admitted into hospital after Anko sent her snakes to bite him in his family jewels whilst Kurenai and several other kunoichi cast layer upon layer of high-level Genjutsu upon him. Apparently he was muttering something out Gay Strip clubs, Guy and mini Guy)
Meanwhile Naruko and Konohamaru had finished laughing and Naruko was teaching him lessons on tree-climbing.
Hokage Office
"Jo Sensei. Long time no see." Said a white haired man from the window. Hiruzen lifted his head from the couch he was on, seeing the man had been talking to his shadow clone.
"I am here Jiraya." He said, startling Jiraya. Laughing at the priceless face on his former student's face, he told him about the conversation he had with Naruko earlier. She had agreed to give him advice on how to deal with paperwork if he would allow her to train Konohamaru.
"I am now regretting agreeing to her offer. She had taught him the Henge jutsu." Hiruzen told him.
"That doesn't sound too bad." Jiraya said. Hiruzen looked at him with a facial expression that said it all.
"She also demonstrated a variation of the Henge that he can use against Ebisu. (A/N: the Jutsu is the Harem jutsu…)" Jiraya's eyes widened as her listened to his former teacher describe the effects of the jutsu. At the end of the explanation, Jiraya was bleeding from both nostrils and was grinning perversely.
"Don't even think about it. No matter what, you are still her Godfather." Hiruzen reprimanded him, seeing the expression on his face. This brought Jiraya back to reality.
"Requesting permission to study…to train her, Hokage-sama." He said formally. Hiruzen sighed.
"You are going to train her, no matter what my answer is going to be, aren't you?" he asked. Jiraya nodded.
"Fine. Just be careful with her." Hiruzen continued, then had an evil thought when Jiraya disappeared.
'Better not tell him about Naruko's sexual preference or her Androphobia…' getting his vision crystal out, he set it to follow his perverted pupil. He was going to enjoy this.
Sometime later, the Castle
"Naruko-sama, there is someone at the Gate to see you. He says he said something about the Hokage sending him to train you." Meigetsu said. Naruko looked up from the scroll she was studying.
"Let him in." Naruko told her, then made several shadow clones to study the scrolls she had on the table. Walking into her room, she put one of her training outfits, then made her way to the main entrance. Along the way she grabbed Himiko, her pouches and a few scrolls.
Jiraya stared at the fire-ette. He had never seen anyone like her. Gaping like a fish out of water, he just stared at her. He didn't recognize her though. Meigetsu giggled.
"Jiji sent this old fart to train me? He acts just as bad as Ebisu." Naruko commented.
"Wait, so you are Naruko?" the man asked.
"No, I am Tsunade of the Sannin…Of course I am Naruko, Jiraya of the Sannin." She told him. "And although I don't mind people staring at my tits, I'd like you to restrain yourself during training, keeping a minimum distance of 3 feet away from me."
At this his expression changed; first to a perverse grin, then to utter confusion. He didn't ask though.
Later, some random location just outside Konoha
"So you have already mastered water walking. Could you tell me what else you know please." Jiraya said. Naruko gave him a list of Jutsu that she knew. When she mentioned her skill using the Kunai attached to her braids, Jiraya took on a thoughtful expression.
'Hmm. In that case I could teach her the Hari Jizō.' He thought.
"Well, Naruko-chan, I believe I have the perfect Jutsu for you, one you can use to supplement your abilities with your Kunai-braids." He said. Naruko raised an eyebrow, followed shortly by the other as Naruko gained a surprised expression as she saw Jiraya envelope himself in a mass of his hair. Moments later the hair retreated.
"Sweeeeeet!" Naruko called out, unintentionally putting chakra into her voice, sending Jiraya flying with the resulting Sonic shockwave.
With Ino
"Well, Ino. We are going to work you hard and complete your training as soon as possible." Anko smirked. Ino nodded, but had the feeling she was going to regret this choice soon enough.
Time skip, one month later, Chunin Tournament Arena
Naruko was feeling restless. She wanted to get the show on the road and had arrived early that morning. Holding her hand and standing next to her was Ino. The two of them hadn't seen each other for the entire month. But they restrained their greeting to a simple kiss and a long, tearful hug. The seats were starting to fill up with Civilians and Guests. Finally it was time to begin.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, fellow Shinobi. In the name of Konoha, I welcome you all here to this year's Chunin exam finals." Hiruzen spoke, his voice being carried clearly to every person in the arena. "This year we have an unusually high number of participants, meaning there is definitively some potential in this year's participants." Loud cheers erupted from the audience at this. Hiruzen sat down in his chair.
Moments later the matches were displayed.
Match 1: Hyuuga Neji vs. Uzumaki Naruko
Match 2: Inuzuka Kiba vs. Inuzuka Kino
Match 3: Sabaku no Kankuro vs. Aburame Shino
Match 4: Uchiha Sasuke vs. Sabaku no Gaara
Match 5: Nara Shikamaru vs. Sabaku no Temari
Match 6: Yamanaka Ino vs. Kasumi from Amegakure
Match 7: Ichigo from Kusagakure vs. Kuroka from Takigakure
Match 8: Karin from Otogakure vs. Sentaro from Hishigakure
"Two of the participants have resigned due to overexertion during the training period." The proctor announced.
"Troublesome. I wish I could so that…" Shikamaru muttered.
"Then why don't you?" teased Temari. The two of them seemed to have become close friends during the training period.
"Because my Mother would never get of my case if I did and you'd have had a greater chance of facing your own brother during this tournament." He said. He didn't notice that she paled slightly.
"Can Uzumaki Naruko and Hyuuga Neji please come forward." The proctor called out. There was a lot of talking amongst the crowd when they heard that Naruko was going to fight the Hyuuga prodigy. Neji was famous due to his massive potential. Approaching him from the other side of the stadium was Naruko. Neji couldn't help but feel that something was different about her. Stating the rules for the battle, the proctor was about to begin the match when Neji spoke up.
"You should surrender whilst you still can, 1st year dropout. (A/N: Naruko is the same age as Neji. Neji just calls her that because he believes that Naruko failed the first year at the academy.) It will save you a lot of trouble." Neji said.
"This from the guy who has a stick up his ass and is incapable of moving on from his past." Naruko spit back. Sensing the tension in the air, the proctor shouted "Hajime."
Moments later a ferocious battle began between Naruko and Neji. They both charged and met in the middle. The two combatants were on even footing: Neji was wielding Kunai with both hands in order to completely protect himself from Naruko's sword, which was nothing but a blur of metal in front of her. Naruko was unable to land any hits due to Neji's two kunai, his greater flexibility and his superior combat experience.
"He is actually holding his own against Hyuuga Neji?" was the summed up thought of most every one of the spectators. With the contestants meanwhile…
"Neji must be holding back. There is no way the dobe could stand on equal ground with him. He should just go ahead and finish it." Sasuke said. Tenten agreed with him, though she did grow some respect for the fire-ette for holding out against Neji like this. Ino meanwhile felt like her heart was about to blast its way out of her chest.
"Naru-koi, you are awesome." She said. Amongst the spectators, a lone voice whispered, "Naruko-kun…"
Suddenly the combatants leapt apart. Neji took the time to activate his Byakugan. Naruko meanwhile…
"Taju Kage Bunshin no Jutsu" she shouted, filling the entire arena with smoke. From within the smoke several voices shouted,

"Kaiten" he yelled, turning rapidly and creating a dome of chakra.
