Changing Identities
The flash of light slowly disappeared allowing Naruto and Ino to bring their arms down from their eyes. They blinked until they regained focused. Their eyes soon widen on what they are seeing.
Sounds of children are heard passing Naruto and Ino. Chatter could be heard around them that Ino notice however Naruto notice something else. Half of the people he is seeing had red hair. Some were females and others males. Not once he ever saw someone with that colour hair along with Ino who went close to Naruto afraid on what's going on.
"Naruto..where are we?" She asked softly.
"I did say the Uzumaki village did I"
Shadows voice came from behind them. They saw him in the ally.
"What do you mean, Uzumaki village...I thought it didnt exist?" Naruto told him.
"Ya, however I told you I would bring you to the Uzumaki village which you wanted...but didn't specify how"
"What are you talking about...where are we?" Ino asked.
"You are in the Uzumaki Village before it became existent"
"Before it became existent" Ino said softly.
"T-that impossible...it means we time travel" Naruto told him.
"Yes, you guys did"
"T-this, t-this is crazy…(grabbed her head)..I must be dreaming, I shouldn't have followed this idiot" Ino exclaimed not liking this at all.
"Shadow.." Naruto called with an anger tone.
"Dont be angry with me...you wanted to know about the Uzumaki clan...and I bet, the other answer you want is here"
Naruto eyes widen after realizing he's right. If he did travel back in time where the Uzumaki clan existed, that must mean his mother even is father might be alive. He began to smile at the thought which Ino liked however in this case it means trouble.
"But wouldn't we mess up time...like the butterfly affect" Ino said to Shadow
"Well leave that to me….there is a reason I join you and that's, to keep the present the way it is…so you guys are going to have to change your look and name if you don't want to pop out so much"
Ino and Naruto looked at themselves and then each other, after everyone in the village. Its true that they stand our alot with Naruto's hair and orange jumpsuit and Ino's hair and purple clothing. They looked back at Shadow who had his arms out to them holding bags that had something in them.
"Here, there's a change of clothes and some hair dye"
"(Took the bag)..you knew that this was going to happen" Ino said and looked into the bag.
She blushed seeing different types of bras and panties along with clothes that she normally would but the bras and panties stood out the most. She squinted to see the measurements on the bra and her eyes widen with surprised seeing them correct.
"Well, seeing that you were…(cough)..in your birth day suit gave me the time to measure and shop"
Ino face turned red from anger and was about to go all demon in Shadow however Naruto was holding her back by hugging her from behind while she was trying to claw Shadow.
"You bastard saw!" She shouted.
"Well i can leave this too you"
"Wait, where you goin?" Naruto asked but no answer.
Naruto sighed not liking the situation at all. First it was his headband now his clothes and his hair. What else will be missing from him.
"Well there's no point now...let's hurry up and change..there are people already staring at us" Ino told Naruto who looked at the villagers.
They had confused expressions wondering who were they and why they look so bright. Ino grinned to them nervously and pulled Naruto more into the alleyway.
OOO
The two found themselves in a dead end. Ino sigh hoping she would find a place to change however she has no choice now. She glared at Naruto.
"Turn" she said like an order.
"Wha.." Naruto said until he was forced to look away from her.
"You better not peek or I will poke your eyes out" she said coldly.
Naruto felt shivers go down his spine and nodded quick. He never knew he would fear another woman other than Sakura.
Ino looked down at her bag and took out the clothing she thinks are a good match. She paused before lifting her shirt and looked at Naruto. She continued underdressing her self by first pulling her skirt down revealing her rosy pink panties. She blushed imagining Naruto staring at her. She continued her way to her top and unbutton it. Now she was half naked with the biggest blush.
She couldn't see but Naruto's face looked like a tomato. The image of Ino's body naked on the pond came to his mind. Just think, the girl that beautiful is right behind him. He had to restrain himself, he must.
"Done" she said quietly.
Naruto slowly turned to her and notice her new clothes. She was wearing a light orange top with a design of a flower on top of her heart and light brown shorts. When Ino was picking, she noticed that they weren't picked for a girl. "Seems like Shadow needs to learn more about woman" she thought and saw Naruto still staring. A faint blush appeared.
"Y-your turn" she said softly.
Naruto nodded and dug into his bag and notice there was a similar jumpsuit like his own however the black on is was grey and the orange on his was black. They were more depressing colours to him. He began to take out his jumpsuit. "So the clothes are brought was meaningless" he thought remembering about his bag. He dropped his jumpsuit and now was taking out his shirt which revealed his six pack and scars.
"N-Naruto...warn me next time" Ino said turned around with a blush.
"Oh..(blush).. sorry" he said and put his new shirt along with his jump suit.
"I'm done"
Ino calmed her breathing after seeing that god like body. She turned to him and was surprised seeing him look different without the orange. Yet the colours weren't him in her eyes, he looked like someone familiar, someone who was always depressed all the time. "Sasuke...but Naruto's at least cuter in these colours" she thought with a smile. Her eyes soon landed on his yellow hair. "He would still stand out...I know Shadow said he bought hair dye" she thought digging in Naruto's bag.
"Ah, ah..yes" Ino said finding a can of hair dye.
"W-what are you going to do with that?" Naruto asked fearing the answer.
"Close your eyes" she told him.
Naruto listened and soon heard the spray. He heard Ino say done and opened his eyes. He was confused seeing the shock expression on her face.
"Whats the matter?" He asked.
"O-oh... n-nothing" she said looking away.
The colour of Naruto's hair is now dark black. Seeing the transformation made Ino shock with no words to say. "He looks mature" she thought feeling like she is seeing the real him for the first time. Naruto couldnt see it sadly. Ino snapped out of her stare and reached in her bag and saw her hair dye. She closed her eyes and began to spray her hair.
Once she's done, she opened her eyes and saw Naruto who's eyes were widen. She tilted her head with confusion.
"What?" She asked and looked at her ponytail.
Her hair changed to deep red like the people here. It surprised Naruto seeing her hair like this. He chuckled at the fact her hair matches her hot temper.
"Hey!..what are you laughing at" she shouted at him with anger.
"There's the hot temper" he thought with a smile.
"You look cute" Naruto said to her.
Ino's anger subsided after he told her that and now her face is matching her hair. Naruto soon realized what he just said and looked away with a blush.
"S-so, what should we do now?" He asked
"let's get out of here...It's too stuffy" Ino answered him which he agreed.
The two got out of the alleyway with their new look. Now they didn't stand however that didn't stop the stares. Many guys had hearts in their eyes seeing Ino and the girls had heart shaped eyes looking at Naruto. Even though they didn't want any attention, they still do.
"Seems like it didn't work" Naruto whispered to Ino.
"No it did" she whispered back. "But this time these pigs and bitches just want us for our looks" she thought noticing the girls that is chatting amongst themselves staring at Naruto. She ignored her fans because of the smile she see's Naruto has on. "His he loving the attention" she thought with a sour look.
"Man, never knew I'm popular here..I never get this attention before..I usual get the stare of disgust but not here" he thought loving the acknowledgement he gets here not noticing Ino burning a hole into him.
"Hmph" Ino huffed look away from him.
"What's wrong now?" Naruto asked seeing that he wanted her attention.
"Uh, nothing...Just keep smiling at your 'hot' fans" she said in a sassy tone.
"Oh..Are you jealous I'm getting more attention than you" Naruto said with a smirk.
"No!..Don't make me laugh..Even in a different time..(swiped her hair)..I'm still the hottest girl" she exclaimed with a smile.
"A bitch is like it" he mumbled to the side.
"What was that?" She looked at him with anger in her eyes.
He didn't answer her which frustrated her. She looked to her side with a sour look. The two-stayed silent in their walk to who knows where. The stares didn't stop and the grin on Naruto's face grew. Ino is irritated with that grin mostly because it's from the admiration from the girls that are all lovey dovey for him. She gritted her teeth and her eyes soon spotted a small restaurant that looked like it served ramen. Her eyes soon caught one of the names they were serving that she didn't like has much.
She grinned evilly having a great idea. She looked at Naruto who had a smile one his face.
"You know... Naruto, we can't be calling ourselves in front of people our real names" Ino told him.
"Why?..I like me name" he said to her.
"Just think what if someone finds out your name and tells other people and they tell more...It just keeps going and when we get back to the present, you might not be called Naruto anymore because you didn't change your name here..also Shadow said so" Ino explained to him.
"Wow, I didn't think about that?" He said understanding what she meant.
"Good..Men~ma" she said with a smirk.
Naruto stopped walking hearing her say Menma. He began to remember a certain time that involved him eating Menma in his Ramen and hated it. Thinking about it brings back the bitter taste.
"Why Menma?" He asked in disgust.
"Why..(head tilt)..I thought you like the name" she told him not knowing why he disliked it.
"I want a different name" he said with his arms crossed.
"Menma fits you" Ino said to him.
Naruto puffed his cheeks in disapproval making Ino chuckle at his childish behaviour. "Awe, he's cute.." she thought giving in however she still wouldn't change the name.
"To make it fair, give me a name" Ino said to him with a smile.
"Give you a name?" He said confused.
"It's not hard...Just don't make it sound ugly" she said and turned around.
She began walking ahead of him. He stood their standing on his own watching has Ino is walking away from him. He slowly dropped his arms and for a second, seeing her red long hair sway ever so smoothly causing him to be mesmerized. "Red might actually be my new favorite colour" he thought until he felt someone push him. He snapped out of his thoughts after seeing a guy running holding a purse.
The guy bumped into Ino too however kept on running. Naruto could hear yells from behind him.
"Get back here!..You criminal!" Yelled a woman he could not see.
Since Naruto is the kind of guy to listen to a woman yell, he began chasing after the thief.
"Naruto.?" Ino said seeing him pass by.
"He must be chasing after that guy…its like him" she thought and followed him.
OOO
"Move away!.." said the thief pushing people to the side.
"Hey!..Wait!" Naruto yelled dodging everyone.
The thief looked behind him while running and spotted Naruto and didn't understand why a kid is chasing after him.
(Thud)
He suddenly fell by the person he bumped into. The thief rubbed his head and glared at the woman that is standing in front of him.
"What's your..Y-your.." The thief stuttered recognizing the woman.
Naruto could see the thief on the floor and a red hair woman. "I need to make it before he does something to her" he thought until he felt a pulse coming from his stomach and stopped.
(SMASH)
Naruto eyes widen seeing the woman, beat up the defenseless thief. He wasn't sure if he should save the woman or save the thief. He can feel her dark ora that made him shiver. "Jeez, who is that woman" he thought feeling shivers go down his spine.
"That's for you get for not saying sorry!" The woman told the beat-up thief in a angry tone.
Naruto walked to the woman and felt himself sweat, fearing she might hit him.
"Y-you really taught him" he said nervously.
"Uh, really" she said kindly.
Naruto blinked multiple times hearing a voice that can only belong to an angel. For a second ago he heard a devil. Getting a better look of the woman, Naruto can't believe how beautiful she is. He blushed when she made eye contact.
"So do you know this person?" She asked sweetly.
"Uh, N-no..I was chasing him and well, seems like you took care of it" Naruto told her.
"Naru~..I mean, Menma!" Ino said making it to him and changed his name seeing the other woman.
"Who is this woman and why is Naruto speaking with her" she thought curious and a little jealous seeing how beautiful she is.
"Who's this?" She asked.
"Oh, I'm…" Ino said about to say her name until Naruto spoke.
"Crystal" he answered for her.
"Crystal?" Ino said shocked.
"Remember…(looked at the woman)..Sorry she has bad memory" Naruto said with a grin.
"I do not!..(crossed her arms)..I'm just surprised is all" Ino mumbled the last part.
"Well nice to meet you...My name is Kushina" she told them with a small bow.
"Kushina" Naruto said quietly and suddenly felt his stomach ache again.
"So who are you two since i never seen you before?" Kushina asked.
"Ah, well.." Ino said thinking to what to say.
Suddenly a man came out of the store the three were in front of them carrying bags. Naruto eyes landed on him and he couldn't believe who he is seeing.
"Kushina, I've got the supplies we need" the blond hair male said to her.
"Oh, thank you" Kushina said to him and stared at the two who had surprised faces staring at her husband. "Oh, let me introduce you...He's my husband, Minato namikaze" Kushina told them with a smile.
"Minato Kamikaze..Has in the fourth Hokage" Ino thought couldn't believe she staring at the man himself.
"Dad.." Naruto thought seeing him here, alive along with his wife meaning his mother. He couldn't believe who is in front of him. He had tears in the corner of his eyes.
OOO
The room is quiet except the sound of footsteps however they don't even make a sound. The young boy is seen walking in his living room. He had a bag on him. He slid the door open revealing his backyard. The young boy soon notice someone in his backyard.
"Who are you?" He asked wondering who is the mysterious boy with the spiky black hair is.
"I-im.." Sasuke tried to speak to the young boy however he can't because the boy in front of him is..
"Hmm.. I'm Itachi Uchiha..and you are?" Itachi asked one more time hoping for an answer.
"I'm Sas...Shun" Sasuke answered using a fake name.
"Shun uh..why are you doing out here?" He asked curious.
"I-i just lost my way" he answered him.
"Your lost...i can help you, I know this village from the back of my head" he said walking off his patio. "But we must do it quick, I dont want to miss out on today"
"Whats happening today?" He asked.
"Its the day I become a ninja of the hidden leaf" Itachi said with a smile.
Sasuke eyes widen seeing his older brother smile. It's been awhile since he has. However, his thoughts were interrupted in realizing that he is staring at his 12 year old brother who is alive and not just that. He can sense so many people around him. Just from seeing his old house again, he knew that he was in the Uchiha clan.
OOO
Sasuke put on a cloak covering his clothes and sword. He decided it would be best not to stand out or reveal that he is an Uchiha. He turned his head to his brother who came with him to the shop to buy him the cloak.
"You look good" Itachi told him.
"T-thanks" Sasuke replied.
The two walked out of the shop after paying. Sasuke can feel eyes on him however most of them was the girls his age. "Not again" he thought thinking back to the hidden leaf.
"Those girls sure like you" Itachi said noticing them.
"Just ignore them" Sasuke told him.
"Why?..dont you like girls?" He asked.
"I don't"
"Does that mean..(stepping away)..you like guys" Itachi said to him.
"No!..I just dont have time for a relationship now" he said to him not wanting to remember his kiss with Naruto.
"(Looking down).. really, isnt it lonely without having someone loving you" Itachi said to him.
"..no" Sasuke said looking away not totally telling the truth.
"uh..(stopped)..there's my school" Itachi said seeing his classmates in front of the school.
"Itachi!" A young girl called out to him causing Itachi to blush.
"Who's that?" Sasuke asked wondering who made his older brother blush.
"T-that my friend..Izumi" Itachi answered him.
She kept waiting for him to come over and he couldn't just stand around anymore. He turned to his new friend.
"I'm going now..i hope I see you again Shun" Itachi said and ran to his friend.
Sasuke stood their watching Itachi go to school. He saw something on Itachi's face when he reached the girl. He didn't understand why he looked like that. He never could really tell what a person looks when they are in love.
