Seven Years later

Chapter 1: The Beautiful Hooded Woman

"…if you're put in this situation than the only thing you can do is…" Kakashi stopped in mid-sentence because someone had turned the corner and walked into the training area. Kakashi, Sakura, Sasuke, and Naruto all looked over at the person, a low hood covered their face but judging from the shape of this person's body it was a young lady. A moment passed where they all just stood and looked at the person as the wind billowed her black robes.

"What are you doing here?!" Naruto yelled, "You're interrupting important training!"

"I'm interested," came the response.

"WHAT?" Naruto yelled, "Not someone else who has come to interrupt us to meet that" Naruto gestured crudely towards Sasuke "stupid idiot!"

"Don't call Sasuke-kun a stupid idiot you idiot!" Sakura cried

"I'm interested in the Uchiha," she responded, "but I'm more interested in you," and everyone but Kakashi seemed to almost faint with surprise.

"Wha…?" said Naruto in a small voice and there was a moment of silence before Naruto laughed and regained his composure, "Ha, ha I bet you've heard how great I am and want my autograph! I knew that there were people who looked up to me, but I can't give you one right now cause I'm training hard. I'm going to become Hokage one day you know? Well of course you do, you must know everything about me since I'm so great! Believe it!"

A small laugh escaped the girl, " well you haven't changed a bit, still ignorant, and loud mouthed, but I've heard that you've grown and become stronger I'm sure that I will see soon…"

"Hey don't talk about me like…!" Naruto started but was interrupted by Sasuke hitting him and sending him to the ground "Who are you?" Sasuke demanded.

Another small laugh, "I wonder if you'll even remember me…but that doesn't matter who I am isn't important right now,"

"Will you at least take your hood down so we can see your face?" Sakura asked.

There was a moment of silence as if she was debating whether or not to do it. Then, with a sigh, she lifted her hand up to the rim of her hood.

"I guess it couldn't hurt," she said as she pulled back her hood, which made Sasuke, Naruto and even Kakashi to inhale sharply. She was absolutely beautiful, and she had eyes like Hinata's and Neji's. She smiled and said, "then again, I suppose it could…" and with that she turned and walked away.

"Do you know who that was Kakashi-Sensei?" Sakura asked, being the only one not fazed by the girl's beauty.

"No," he responded looking a little uneasy.

"Maybe she isn't from around here," said Naruto.

"How stupid are you?" Sakura asked with a sigh, "Didn't you notice that she was wearing a Hidden Leaf Village head protector tied around her wrist?"

"Of course I noticed!" yelled Naruto firing up at once, "I was just making sure that you guys noticed!!"

"Uh…are you OK Sasuke-kun?" said Sakura noticing that he was still staring off at the spot that the girl was just standing at.

He said nothing and turned his attention to the ground.

"I think that we should call it a day," said Kakashi suddenly.

"Are you going to go find out who that girl was Kakashi-sensei?" asked Sasuke.

With a small nod Kakashi took off.

"That girl claimed that she had met us before," said Sakura "did you guys recognize her at all?"

"No," replied Naruto and Sasuke shook his head.

"I also didn't sense her or any chakra coming from her. I wonder if she has the same fighting style as Lee-kun?"

"No," said Sasuke "No offence Sakura, but girls hand-to-hand battle isn't as good as guys so girls can't rely on hand-to-hand only. They must use chakra and jutsu's to help them in battle against men,"

"But if she doesn't have any chakra than how could she become a ninja?" Naruto asked.

"I don't know," replied Sasuke.

"Maybe she's just a wannabe," offered Sakura, "because, I mean, what kind of actual ninja would be interested in Naruto?"

The girl was sitting on a tree branch when she heard Naruto start yelling again. What an idiot she thought to herself but still, he is strong, I don't think that even he knows how strong he is. I will make him see. Then I will drain him of his strength when the time is right, I'll take it all.
