Chapter 2 – A Village Reborn

Uzumaki Naruto, stood looking out the window of his newly finished office, he wore simple black pants, and a sleeveless white shirt with an orange spiral on the back. The room he stood in was a large, clean room. Wood floorings, and white walls, a large window was right behind the desk. The desk! It was a thing of beauty, built out of mahogany; it was crafted by the best craftsmen on this island. Indeed, Naruto was on an island, about northeast of Kiri. The island that Naruto now resided upon was a fairly large one. Smaller than Kiri for sure, but still was a close rival. Itwas definitely a peaceful looking island withgreen slopping hills, gentle rivers, even a small rocky hill that resembled a mountain.

However, all good things come with a price. The island was completely surrounded in large, fierce whirlpools. What lead Naruto to this beautiful, but dangerous island? The memory of his mother, yes Naruto knew of his family. Before Naruto was banished, Tsunade had snuck him a large scroll, and told him to only open it when the time was right.

Awhile later, Naruto opened the scroll and learned everything of his past. His parents, Namikaze Minato, and Uzumaki Kushina, even the fact that his father was the one who ruined his life with the Kyuubi. Enraged, Naruto obliterated the area he had been, leaving only a largecrater.

After he calmed himself, Naruto read the letter his father left behind for him. Naruto had to resist the urge to cry while reading it. Heeventually forgavehis father, but still vowed that if he ever saw Minato in the after life, Naruto would break the man's jaw. Not only all that, but he found another scroll, this one had a jutsu in it, called 'Hirashin no jutsu.' Now he-

Knock, Knock, "Oi you still brooding in there?" A smooth female voice asked, pulling the young twenty-one year old out of his mental ramblings. Naruto's eyebrow twitched, as the door opened without his permission, to reveal a beautiful young woman in the doorway.

She had captivating dark blue eyes, and long dark brown hair thatwas pulled into a neat, bun held together by senbon. Her clothes were very exotic. The woman wore a light blue miniskirt, with black trim, underneath that was a pair of fishnet shorts that ended right above her knees. The shirt was very simple; it was a short sleeved black shirt, with a light blue spiral on the front. On top ofthat she wore a sleeve-lesscoat, which was a soft lavender color, and was an inch short of being even with her miniskirt. To complete the woman's look, was a brown belt around her waist, and tied to that belt was an exotic and breathtaking sword. However, what really catchesone's eyeout of the wholeoutfit, was the silver shinobi plate right on the middle of the belt, the plate was unlike any that was known by the Five Great Shinobi Villages. Instead, the plate's symbol was a spiral, like a whirlpool. Her name was Nakashima Amane, a close friend of Naruto's.

"Hardly Amane-chan, just remembering" Naruto replied, turning back to the window he staredout over the half built village below.

"You do know if you keep that, 'Oh I'm so depressed, pity me!' look on your face. I'll have to take matters into my own hand right?" Amane grinned as she moved forward, and closed the door behind her. "The Shinobi Council will be meeting soon, we'll need you to make an appearance, and not seclude yourself this time."

"So cruel, you don't need to be so mean Amane-chaaaan." Naruto replied teasingly, he remembered the time he met the spunky woman. She had been tied to a tree, surrounded by dirty bandits, screaming profanity at them to let her down or she'd skin them alive with a blunt, rusty spoon.

"And if you must know Amane-chan, it was just ONE meeting! Come on! I was trying to perfect that jutsu. After all, I am the most amazing shinobi on our island."he said cheekily, with mock arrogance. Amane rolled her eyes as she huffed.

"Arrogance doesn't suit you, and wipe that grin off your face! You'll be in deep crap if you miss this meeting. You are after all, leader of this village." Naruto laughed at Amane's indignant face.

"Ha-ha, yeah I know." Naruto smiled at Amane, before turning and looking back out the window. His piercing blue eyes looked out over the village. The Village Hidden within the Whirlpools. Naruto let the sounds of the everyday people of his village sooth him, the noises of construction, children's laughter, and merchants in the market calling out the prices of their merchandise. The village was still in the process of building, and to be honest Naruto thought the design of the entire village was a bit strange. It was built on a low rising hill, and the village was built in a spiral design upon the hill. Naruto had to wonder if the people here were obsessed with swirls and spirals. From above the main street could be seen running, from where the main gate was being built, in another spiral, all the way to the building Naruto's office was in, at the center of the village.

However, even though the design was kooky, the defense plan was sound. Unlike other villages, the shinobi houses surrounded the citizens on both the outer and inner layers. Sandwiching in two layers of defense; the outer wall, and the center where Naruto's office was.

Naruto smiled as he remembered the journey to find this place. When he found out his mother was not from Konoha, but another village. He was filled with the desire to find the village. It had hurt a lot when he learned the real Village Hidden within the Whirlpools had been destroyed. That didn't stop him though; he continued searchinguntil he found this island, this beautiful place that was surrounded by great whirlpools, protecting it from the outside. Sometimes when Naruto looked out over the hills, he hoped this was the place where his mother was born.When he went walking out on the island he would picture his mother running through those fields practicing and frolicking in the lush green scenery.

"Naruto… We have five minutes…" Amane's voice cut into said man's thoughts, he turned and gave her his signature wide grin.

He turned and gave her his signature wide grin. "Alright, lets go,"he said andpulled his robe off his chair. The robe resembled a kage's robes, except the kanji on the back was for whirlpool. Instead of putting the robe on properly like a real kage, he settled it on his shoulder and let it drape down one side.

Amane had to grin as she turned and lead the way for Naruto. She had to admit, Naruto looked very regal when he put his robe on like that. It was like his whole personality changed to serious and the kind of person who didn't take crap from anyone. It was kind ofhot, even though Amane had no feelings for Naruto other than the utmost respect and friendship, she knew sexy when she saw it.

The two of them said nothing as they traveled down corridors, and up a flight of steps, where they came to a grand set of double doors. Amane grabbed the handles of both doors andlooked back at Naruto, who nodded at her. She gave a wicked grin, as she shoved open the doors and let them slam against the walls.
"Nakashima Amane, present and accounted for." She said as she walked regally into the meeting room.

Watching the other members of the council jump was always so satisfying. There were only seven council members, including Naruto and herself. Since there were no real clans in the village at this moment, the council was only made of the best shinobi in the village were on it right now. It was only temporary, but no one knew how long it would last.

Naruto tilted his head up slightly, looking like the most arrogant man in the world. He had to be, as the leader of a new village, he had to be absurdly confident in his village's strength. He shook himself from his wandering thoughts and strode into the meeting room confidently.

"Uzumaki Naruto, Shodaime Uzukage present and accounted for. Let this meeting begin."He said, his voice booming out like a brass bell, instantly everyone in the room jumped up and bowed to him. So much to do, so little time, and he was enjoying every minute of his job.
