Hey guys! This chapter was a pain in the rear to type, I kept changing it after researching over and over to make sure I didn't mess up on details.

Thank you guys for the faves and follows, I love this community so much you have no idea. ^.^

DarkDust27: Agreed, I was dying of laughter making those two scenes, that chapter was a ton of fun to write. Also yeah, I'll make a poll system WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY later in the story, the only confirmed pair so far is Hinata x Naruto as that is my OTP for straight pairings and Deidara plays matchmaker later on.

"Blah" - Talking

'blah' - thinking

Blah - passage of time not a timeskip

Warning: Language, fluff, lots of fwuff, Deidara playing matchmaker and… oh, SPOILERS.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, if I did... Danzo would have had a worse death scene. I'm rather sadistic by nature :3


Deidara's POV

Finally, one month has passed and I can leave this stupid cell. Kakashi escorted me out and took me to a small restaurant where Naruto was waiting outside. Despite my insistence, he left claiming he had things to do, 'I guess he wants to spend time at the memorial stone…' I really want to tell him about Obito… but I'm not sure how he would take it. I'll have to wait and see.

I ordered us some breakfast, and for the 20th time in my short existence had to explain WHY "Ramen is not a healthy breakfast" while at the same time missing having bacon and pancakes. Oh well at least there are eggs.

Once Naruto dragged me straight to his apartment that was, thankfully due to my influence, cleaner and more homey. I'll have to buy a futon later today, for some reason this body hates regular mattresses.

"Heheheh! This is great dattebayo! You're staying with me Deidara-nii!" I ruffle his hair smirking, little does he realize that I plan on changing quite a few of his lifestyles early on. I will have a brother with good hygiene!

"Yes, but now you need to head to school." He begins to whine but I cut him off with a "zip it" motion, "I have to speak to Hokage-sama. I'll hang out with you tonight."

This doesn't stop Naruto from pouting, "Okay… but you'll begin my training soon right dattebayo?" Well considering I can finally hit that stupid post with weapons…

"Sure, un." I had to cover my ears as I get a scream of excitement invading my cranium. I barely have enough time to register the fact that something was missing on his person, before the squirt hugged my waist then bolt out. Sitting on his table was the lunch I made yesterday. 'Not again...' cupping my hands over my mouth I shout out "NARUTO-KUN YOUR BENT- oh come on!" And he's gone… again. I really do not feel like chasing after him. 'What a drag... I swear someone just sneezed...'

With a groan, I head over to the academy's gates and wait for someone I recognize, at first, all I see are background characters. Then, I see the walking cinnamon roll.

Hyuuga Hinata.

With an internal evil laugh I walk over, slipping on my gloves so I do not freak her out and called out "Pardon me, Hyuuga-san?" Poor thing nearly passed out right then and there.

"Y-yes…?" Oh my god she's doing the finger twiddle, I must not HUG!

"You're Naruto-kun's classmate right, un?" I tilt my head in curiousity, 'Awwwww she turned red! Squeee!'

"N-naruto-k-kun..?!" I nod then hold out the bento to her, she looks at me with a confused expression.

"I'm his adoptive older brother, my name's Deidara. He forgot his lunch and… well…" I kneel to her height and smiled softly "I don't want to embarrass him, un. Could you bring him his lunch for me?" My heart melted as she let out a small giggle in understandment. 'Stop being so damn cute, Hinata!'

She slowly starts doing the turtle upon realizing this meant she would talk to Naruto. "W-well…" She gulps, "O-okay…" Timidly she takes the bento and held it like it was the most precious thing to her. "O-oh! U-um… I uh…."

"Well, I must be off, it was nice meeting you Hyuuga-san, un." With that I begin to walk off, but stopped mid-step when a tiny voice shouted out to me.

"Hin….Hinata!"

Snapping my head over in shock, I see a bright red Hinata trying to control her breathing. Finally she looks at me with a bright smile that made her whole face glow.

"My name is Hinata... It's nice to meet you Deidara-san!" She then bowed and walked to the academy, slightly wobbly but I felt proud for her.

'She didn't stutter... Naruto, you better eat lunch with her. I'm going to kill that crush you have on Sakura, lock it up and throw it in the deepest part of the ocean. You will not get your heart broken this time around.'

As walk away I ignore the brooding boy with the hair that looks like a duck's ass.

Naruto's POV

'Aww man I forgot my lunch Deidara-nii made me! He's gonna kill me, or he'll show up and embarrass me in front of everyone! Sakura-chan will never like me after that! I'M DOOOOOOOOOMMMMEEEEDDD-'

"N-N-Naruto-kun…?"

"Eh?" Looking over I see that weird kid, Hinata I think is her name?

The girl gulped for some reason and held out a box wrapped in a light blue cloth, '… my bento?'

"Y-your b-b-brother a-a-asked me to give y-you your l-lunch." Hinata kept turning more and more red. Man is she weird. (AN:Naruto has such a small vocabulary list X_x)

Rubbing the back of my head I awkwardly take the box, "Thanks?" 'Oooooooh maybe I should ask Sakura-chan to eat with me!'

Wait…

FLASHBACK

Nii-san was scolding me about forgetting my lunch again.

"Honestly, next time you forget it I'm gonna show up to your class, un."

I started to panic, flailing my arms in protest "No dattebayo! It'll be embarrassing!"

Almost instantly Nii-san began smirking "Then if you forget it, I will have a classmate deliver it. As a thank you I want you to share some of your bento with them, un." He puts his hands on his hips and leans down to my height. Gah! Why is he taller than me! "I want you to make friends. Use this as your chance to do so…"

END FLASHBACK

Fine Deidara-nii, we had a deal. "Neh… Hinata right? Wanna have lunch with me dattebayo?" Wow her face changes color fast.

"L-lunch…?" Now she's doing some weird pushing motion with her finger. 'What's her problem?'

"Yeah, Deidara-nii makes too much anyway. Whaddaya say?"

Hinata's starting to fall… "U-um… o-okay... " And then she fainted, I had to catch her before her face met the desk and quickly set her down next to me. I was gonna save that seat for Sakura-chan but… I did promise I would try to make friends. Even if she's a little strange.

A few hours later.

Hinata finally woke up, and I had to stop her from fainting again when I told her about lunch. Man, what's with her and fainting?

Taking her to my usual spot I open the bento to see… foods I have never eaten before and… cinnamon rolls? Weird, Deidara-nii never gives me sweets. He even packed an extra set of chopsticks?! Was this planned?!

Mumbling about how much of a pain Deidara-nii was, I split the lunch in half and gave it to Hinata, who replied with a "Thank you…" before we began to dig in.

"Y-your brother is a g-good… cook N-Naruto-kun..."

"Huh? Ohf yhapf!" I swallow my food "Deidara-nii makes the best food besides ramen! That goes to old man Teuchi from Ichiraku!"

Hinata began to shrink a little "Ich...Ichiraku…?"

Wait, don't tell me… "You've never had Ichiraku, dattebayo?!" Before Hinata could answer I continue "Aw man kid, you haven't lived yet! After school I'm taking you to Ichiraku to have ramen, dattebayo!"

"Y… you… r-really?" Wow she really doesn't get out much, huh?

I nod with a massive grin "Yeah!"

She timidly nodded then began eating a cinnamon roll. I have to admit, I like that smile on her. Makes her look less weird.

"You have a nice smile dattebayo! You should do that more often!"

And then she fainted. Mid cinnamon roll.

"Eh…? Hinata?"

Deidara's POV

Walking into the Hokage's office, like we agreed, there is no one else in the room but Hiruzen, but I'm going to make eavesdropping impossible.

"Hokage-sama." I politely bow to a 90 degree angle keeping my head low. "Shall we begin our conversation?" Straightening my back I see gramps giving me a suspicious look… 'oh hell no.'

Hiruzen quickly spammed hand signs, soundproofing the room. "You haven't caused any problems during the month. You have kept a clean record… almost too clean."

I frown, 'I dare you to claim that I'm just acting.'

"I can't help but wonder if this is all an act to let my guard down. Maybe sending you on a mission outside of the leaf will be too much…"

That's it.

Feeling the blood rush up to my face I grit my teeth, "With all due respect Hokage-sama. I followed your expectations to a T. I have not caused problems, stayed in my cell at night, and helped Naruto with his academy work… all I ask is for you to listen to what I have to say…" I take a breath, "please, un…" I'm just… so tired of all this, I want to get this over with and spend time with Naruto.

Slowly, the suspicious look dropped and he motioned me to continue.

Suddenly it felt like a knot tied in my stomach, a million scenarios play in my mind as I try not to bolt out of the room. 'Here goes nothing, I'm going to die.'

"I am not Deidara, un. I am a 19 year old girl who died in her sleep and woke up in this body." I cringed at how fake that sounded. Even Hiruzen didn't seem convinced. "Basically I was… reborn? In a way, un? But I skipped the baby phase..? And um… uh… thank god for that?" I began to fidget again with a nervous laugh, rubbing the back of my neck.

At first, Hiruzen didn't move, then slowly, he leans forward with a serious look on his face. "If I am meant to believe you, why did you pick the path you are walking down right now? You had more freedom as a missing nin."

I almost sighed with relief, at least he's not sending me to the looney bin. "I'm from another…" I struggle to find the right word "dimension? And in that dimension, this… world, its people, history and way of life are all… manga. A very popular manga at that."

"How popular?"

How popular you say? Well… "An entire generation grew up knowing the main character and his friends. We know just as much as the creator made, un. Key historical events, secrets and lies. Everyone's birthdays, blood-types, hobbies and dreams are at the palm of our hands. Little of the past is known, but we know the future. I even grew up reading the series from beginning to end, un."

Hiruzen gave me a calculating expression, rather expressive todays aren't we? "And who is the 'main character'?"

"Uzumaki Naruto, un." Damnit why did I say that so quickly?! Hiruzen's chakra began to spew out threateningly, shit he's getting the wrong idea! "Wait! I'm not here to harm Naruto, un! I'm aware of how he was raised and I wanted to give him a better life, because I'm a sucker for bad pasts and I'm extremely maternal!" I try to plead my case, raising my arms in a "Don't shoot" position, slowly the chakra in the room dimmed down. Phew. Dodged a bullet right there.

"What proof do you have of the knowledge you possess?" Oh goodie! Something any fan can answer!

"Uzumaki Naruto is the son of Uzumaki Kushina and Namikaze Minato, un." I watch as Hiruzen's arm jerked in shock across his desk, knocking over stuff. Woot! Just the reaction I wanted.

Cracking my neck, I prepare the big guns.

"Uchiha Itachi was ordered to kill his entire clan because the Uchiha were going to stage a coup, un." It took all of my self-control to not explode in anger at this.

My mind slowly gets a flashback-no-jutsu of Shisui's suicide, the massacre, Itachi killing his parents, Izumi having a botched death in the anime. All the pain one kid had to feel for the rest of his short life. "He cried as he drove a sword through his parents bodies. And then cried again just before Sasuke passed out."

I tilt my head to look at the man sitting before me. "Danzo ordered the clan's death, and in turn Itachi threatened the village's safety if Sasuke is harmed, un."

Hiruzen's POV

I tried to mask my shock but failed, when asking for proof I was expecting Naruto's parents to be revealed… but only four people in Konoha know the truth about the Uchiha massacre. But words can be passed down, I need physical proof.

"Do you have physical proof that you have knowledge of our world?" I was hoping to stump the blond, but no, instead he smiled. And not a cheery kind, it was a smile that was a mixture of "I have this all under control." , "I win." and "You shouldn't have asked that~." All wrapped up with the terrifying glow of victory in his eyes. I swear he's giggling.

"Do you know what Danzo has under his bandaged eye?" He questions me. I say nothing as I am now the one that's clueless, he then continues. "You don't… well you will learn. Have a Hyuuga you trust -Hiashi maybe- use their byakugan on Danzo's covered eye and then have them tell you the color of chakra it is, un."

'The color of chakra..?' "What do you mean color?"

Deidara's grin widened to nearly a physically impossible size (AN:Cheshire! :D), but then pulls a disgusted face, "Uchiha Shisui has green chakra*, Danzo has Shisui's eye. With it, the power to manipulate others with a near perfect genjutsu, un."

I glare at the boy dangerously, "You are making some very bold clai-"

"He also has several sharingan implanted in his right arm, un. But I am unsure if I can prove it or not without making him physically show his arm and…" he interrupted me with a gage, "I'd rather not, un. It's gross."

I lean back into my chair, suddenly feeling my age as the potential truth that is being placed before me. "What if you are wrong?" Again, that creepy grin formed. It's as if he knows I will lose.

"If I am wrong, I will formally apologize to Danzo, offer my services to him, and tell you everything I know about Orochimaru in detail, un." So even if I did believe him he would leave out some information. I have to admit that is a smart tactic.

"And if you are right?"

Without missing a beat, "Then you will provide me full permission to remove Shisui's eye from Danzo, dead or alive, and allow me to attempt to reunite the Uchiha brothers."

"..."

"What? Were you expecting something like me having full autonomy in the village or access to classified information?"

"I was actually… why do you care about Itachi?"

Deidara's smile dropped and he squirmed where he stood, biting his lower lip in thought, he soon points to himself, "Deidara was… and is my favorite character, ironic that I would never in a million years want to be him, un." That nervous chuckle rang out again, "Itachi's my second favorite, and he deserved so much more than what he got in the original timeline. Hiruzen, he's dying of an illness, and is only keeping himself alive so Sasuke could kill him." I didn't know about Itachi being sick… but I can understand Itachi's situation a bit more now.

I truly had no reason to argue, his reasons are selfish, but at least he has a reason.

But one questioned ringed out in my head,"If you are not Deidara. Then who are you?" If it makes him more comfortable, I'd like to know his true name, inside that head is possibly a young woman who probably is having a hard time adjusting to a body completely different from her own.

Deidara gave me a long stare before looking up at the ceiling with an unfocused gaze.

"I'm no one, un. I'm just Deidara now."

I felt my eyebrow subconsciously raise. With that he continued "I died. I was given another life. I'm going to use the knowledge I have to change things for the better, un. My old name is worthless here and I'd rather take it to my new grave, un." A mature response. The knowledge of his past life would be too valuable, and the fewer who know it the better.

"Will… you be willing to tell me what would have happened without your existence? The story that you plan on changing?" If it turns out Deidara is telling the truth, then I need to be prepared to help him make these changes. A part of me almost hopes that he is lying.

Finally, a genuine grin plastered his face as he sat down in a chair. The expression matched Naruto whenever he talks about ramen or his dream to be Hokage, it's nothing but passion.

"I will not tell you everything yet, but it all starts with Naruto's academy graduation, un..."


Ultimate Timeskip no jutsu!


Deidara's POV

After talking with the old man I had to shop for a futon and new outfits. For some reason I just like wearing kimono shirts so I ended up buying several of the same outfit young Deidara wears with various colors. Later on I'll start dressing similar to shippuden Deidara, his clothes look pretty comfy. I also got Naruto a few new shirts as his old ones weren't fitting him right and white is not his color.

My mission begins tomorrow and I'll be with two jonin that I met not long after the meeting, a man and a woman but their names escape me. The mission will be three days and I am there as defence.

Back in Naruto's apartment I made myself a little dinner after pre-making some lunches for Naruto. He can cook his own breakfast and dinner just fine but if I gave him free will of his bento he'd just take instant ramen. Speaking of ramen, I saw Naruto in Ichiraku's with someone but I didn't see who, so I knew he wouldn't be hungry.

My mind wonders to the conversation I had with the Hokage, I told him up to the beginning of Shippuden with the promise of more information later. In return he will investigates Danzo. He honestly took the news of his own death fairly well, but not so much Orochimaru giving Sasuke the curse hickey. I wouldn't be so keen knowing my student did stuff like that either, I'll need to think of a way to prevent that from happening.

"I'm home, dattebayo!"

Looking up from my rice I grin over to my new baby brother "Welcome home Naruto-kun!" I need to drop the kun soon, I sound like Hinata. "So, anything new happen today, un?" I took a bite of my fish and watch Naruto sit in front of me.

Naruto lowers his head, and got quiet "Yeah…" Okay, who do I have to kill?

Suddenly he shoots his head up at me and beams a bright smile "I made a new friend, dattebayo!"

… Okay, who do I have to hug?


Well folks, now Hiruzen knows. I decided to use Danzo as the main form of proof for two reasons: 1. He literally is the only form of physical proof Deidara could present right now. And 2. I REALLLLLYYYYY want an excuse to kill the bastard later on. Trust me, if there is one character that I am definitely gonna have die early on, it's Danzo.

*I found it fascinating when Ao's byakugan showed Shisui's eye as green. Then after doing some research, I learned that all of the Uchiha's Susanoos match their creators chakra color, so Shisui's chakra is green and Sasuke has purple chakra... poor guy, can't escape that color huh?

Next chapter will be Deidara's mission and encounters with two very important characters.

Until next time, reviews are loved and I shall see you all later.

Peace!
