Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. Simple as that.
I fielded a question about how Naruko knowing Hiraishin [flying thunder god] was potentially a plot hole. I have a reason for her knowing that particular jutsu, but I plan on going into that later. Rest assured, however, that it is not so much a plot hole as it is an unrevealed part of her training.
Also, I currently do not have a pairing in mind for Naruko, but I'm open to suggestions. I might do NaruXhaku though.
This chapter's got some lemon.
The next few weeks went predictably for any new genin squad. Their time was split between training, which consisted of working on their teamwork by sparring amongst themselves in various combinations; and D ranked missions. Naruko proved to be so good at catching the fire lord's wife's cat, Tora, that their squad quickly became the go-to team for that mission. What no one outside team 7 didn't know was that after the second time, Naruko had hidden a Hiraishin tag in Tora's collar, and when given the mission, would simply flash to the cat's location and grab her.
The obviously skillful way that team 7 handled themselves in these D ranked missions (unbeatable best time in tora missions, and clones to do the menial chores like weeding and cleaning), prompted the hokage to offer the team a C ranked mission before they got fed up and demanded one.
Thus it was that Team 7 was in the hokage's office.
"Before I give you your next mission, I would like to ask you a question Kakashi. Do you believe that your squad is ready for a C ranked mission?" Sarutobi asked.
"Hmmm, good question. Well, based on their performance in their previous missions and how our training has been going, yes, I believe they are prepared." Kakashi then eye-smiled at his team.
"All right, I have a courier mission to relay a package from the land of tea to the land of rice patties. You will meet with the clients in the capitol of the land of tea in one weeks time to pick up the package. Your contact is a merchant named Misaki Konno. Here is his picture," he handed them the picture from the file before continuing. "I don't foresee any complications on this mission, as the package is not of a critical nature. It is C ranked only because of the probability of bandit activity in the area. Good luck!"
The three bowed and then left to make their preparations to leave.

After gathering the necessary items for their trip, team 7 met at the main gate. Kakashi, as usual, kept them waiting, but was only 15 minutes late this time.
They made good time to the land of tea, and met up with their contact a day earlier than expected. He was an elderly merchant who specialized in the land of tea's primary luxury export, peaches.
After receiving the shipment of peaches and sealing them in a scroll, team 7 left for the land of rice patties.
Near the border to the land of tea, Naruko noticed that they were about to walk into an ambush of some kind. Getting a nod from Kakashi, she drew a double handful of her three pronged kunai, and with a sweeping motion, launched them into the trees on both sides of the road. This caused the bandits who had been attempting to hide, to reveal themselves.
"Hahahaha! So you noticed our little ambush. Too bad your aim isn't better girl!" the leader sneered.
Naruko just smirked, and after drawing several more kunai, disappeared in a flash. The bandits were cut down in a matter of seconds by a rain of kunai that seemed to come from all directions, with the leader being the only one able to dodge or block the projectiles. It didn't do him any good, because a moment after the crossfire ended, Naruko appeared behind him in another flash, and ripped out his kidneys in a particularly vicious double kunai strike.
As he lay on the ground dying, the man looked up into the eyes of the young girl who had single handedly slaughtered his entire troupe of over thirty men. "What are you?" he managed to get out before his eyes glassed over and he breathed his last.
After collecting all the kunai she had thrown (those seals aren't easy to make you know!) the foursome moved on.
None of them noticed the departing figure of a foreign ninja as it tree-hopped away.
The rest of the mission went off without a hitch. The peaches were delivered a few days earlier than expected, earning them an unexpected tip from the recipient.

"So you say that Naruko took out approximately thirty bandits by herself in a matter of about one minute." The hokage asked incredulously.
"Yes sir. She has mastered the fourth's Hiraishin jutsu, and used it to devastating effect. I haven't seen anything like it since the third great ninja war."
Naruko was blushing and scuffing her toe in embarrassment at the praise. "They were just bandits. The fourth was able to do get those kinds of results against ninja; we only fought a group of fourth rate bandits."
"Don't sell yourself short, Naruko. Based off of the equipment the bandits were carrying, and the skills of their leader, I would say that they were first or second rate bandits at the least. I think the leader may have had some shinobi training as well." Kakashi said with one of his famous eye smiles.
"Interesting… well, take a couple of days off to rest, then I have another C ranked mission that looks to be tailor made for your team. You are dismissed. Kakashi, if I may have a word…"
The genin of squad 7 bowed and left. Before she shut the door behind her, Naruko heard the old man say, "She knows Hiraishin! Where the hell did she learn that? If she knows…" *click*
The conversation cut off as the door shut.
'Huh. I didn't realize that my Hiraishin was anything more than a devastatingly effective jutsu. I know that it was dad's jutsu, but he never made a big deal about it before his chakra ran out. Meh, I'll ask the old man about it later.' Naruko mused as she walked to one of her favorite dango shop.
XXX
When she got to her dango shop, she ran into (literally) a woman she had seen there several times before, but had never talked to. Naruko decided that it would be best to start off the conversation with an apology.
"Sorry, I didn't see you there. Let me buy you an order of dango to make it up to you."
The woman, dressed in a chain bodysuit [an: I'm choosing to interpret the fishnets that various ninja wear as a type of light chainmail undershirt. It strikes me as silly that ninja would go around without some form of protective garment in their blade filled world] a miniskirt, a trench coat, and combat boots, turned and said with a smile, "Well girlie, you got lucky that you happened to pick one of the only two ways of apologizing that I accept. Oh! You're that girl who likes dango almost more than me! I see you in here all the time. I'm Anko," she said, proffering a hand.
Naruko smiled, took the proffered hand and shaking it said, "If it weren't for my other great love, ramen, I would be here several times a day, every day! I'm Naruko."
After Naruko bought the two of them a package of dango, they sat down at one of the tables and made small talk over their sweet, tasty treat.
Finally, after two more rounds of dango, Naruko excused herself explaining, "I've got to prepare for a C rank mission coming up in a couple of days. I've got to get some solo training in, because honestly, Kakashi sensei's training is aimed more at my teammates to get their teamwork up to speed."
Anko got a sinister glint in her eye, then said, "Hey, I'm about to go train as well. Care to join me?"
Not noticing the sadistic look in Anko's eye, Naruko said, "Sure, just tell me where to meet. I have to clean my gear, since I just got back from my first C ranked mission."
Anko called out, "Training ground 44," as Naruko walked back to her apartment.
"All right, I'll be there in two hours." Naruko called back.

It was some of the harshest training Naruko had ever endured. They played a twisted game of 'tag', where in order to tag the other person, you had to draw a small amount of blood.
Anko was impressed by the end of it, because the 'game' had ended up fairly even. "That teleportation jutsu you have gives you a massive edge over any opponent you might face. I hope it isn't the only trick up your sleeve though. One trick ponies tend to die fairly quickly in our line of work."
Anko was suddenly grabbed by a giant white chakra claw, attached to a giant white chakra arm, coming from a glowing white little blond girl. "You were saying?"
"Humph. Ok, you win, now let me down!"
Naruko got a sadistic glint in her eye, and then simply released Anko. They were three stories up.
"Aaaaah! You bitch! On the ground! Let me down on the ground! Or at least on a tree branch!" Anko quickly pulled out a kunai and some rope, tying the rope through the loop of the kunai, and using it to grapple herself to safety.
The last thing she heard of her new training meat buddy was the little girls giggles as she left for the exit.
Wiping an imaginary tear from her eye, Anko mused, "A girl after my own heart. I wonder if anyone has claimed her as a disciple yet."

Two days later, team 7 was back in the hokage's office once again.
"Your mission is to escort a master bridge builder by the name of Tazuna to the land of waves and protect him while he finishes the bridge. He should be here shortly," a knock sounded at the door, "and here he is. ENTER."
An older man, maybe mid forties or fifties, entered the office. He smelled of cheap sake, and had a little stagger in his step.
"Huh, I ask for a protection detail and you give me three kids and a Cyclops? Wha kinda racket are you running here?" he slurred.
"I assure you, my team is more than capable of protecting you, and to put your mind at ease, I myself am an elite Jounin. Anything they can't handle, I can." Kakashi assured him.
"I don't know if I feel comfortable with these kids, they look kinda scrawny and…" he didn't finish his sentence.
He had been interrupted by the blonde girl disappearing in a yellow flash, and suddenly feeling something hard and metallic pressed into his kidney.
"Is that good enough for you, you drunken old washup?" Naruko asked dangerously.
Tazuna turned to see the ring on the handle of a three pronged kunai pressed into his side. Even through his drunken stupor he realized that that could have been a lethal stab wound had the kunai been turned the right way around. Blanching a little, he said, "Okay, okay, you convinced me. Well, let's get going already."
XXX
The four ninja and one slightly more sober bridge builder met at the village gates an hour later.
"Are you absolutely sure that I'm gonna be safe with these brats?" Tazuna asked again.
"Listen you washed up old lush, I'm going to be hokage one day, I'm the number 1 kunoichi of the leaf, Uzumaki Naruko!" her tone suddenly turned sickly sweet, "and if you keep doubting our skills as ninja, I will personally demonstrate them on you."
"No killing the client, Naruko. Besides, Tazuna, I am a Jounin, an elite ninja. Please be confident in at least my skills."
They continued to walk in silence. Kakashi was the only one to notice the puddle in the middle of the road, as it hadn't rained in a couple of weeks, he was suspicious of it.
His suspicions were confirmed when two chuunin leapt from the puddle after the group had passed, attacking from behind. Naruko saw the two ninja wrap a razor chain attached between the two enemy ninja around Kakashi, and as the chain drew tight, Naruko saw red for more than one reason. Calling upon the Kyuubi's chakra, she instantly projected two white chakra claws that grabbed the two enemy ninja. She quickly crushed one to death, and after letting the body fall, she slammed the other against a tree, and wrapped the chain still attached to the gauntlet of the two ninjas around the tree, securing the survivor. She then let go of the Kyuubi's chakra, and after pulling out one of her signature three pronged kunai, walked up to the remaining ninja, preparing herself to torture the man to death for killing her sensei.
Naruko was jolted out of her dark planning when Kakashi stepped out from behind a tree and said, "Good work you three."
It took a moment for them to get over their shock, but they quickly noticed that where they expected to see kakashi's body parts, there was a bunch of chopped up logs.
"Oh, you used kawarimi. How did you know to use kawarimi?" Naruko asked.
"It's a sunny day, and it hasn't rained recently. They were hiding in a puddle that shouldn't have existed." Kakashi explained. "Speaking of which," he turned to the restrained Mist ninja, "who was your target? My genin teammate here killed your partner and defeated you too quickly for me to determine. Tell me, or I'll finish the job."
After a short interrogation, the surviving missing nin from the village hidden in the mist admitted that they were the demon brothers, working for the demon of the mist, Zabuza Momochi, and that they were there to assassinate the bridge builder. Kakashi considered calling off the mission, but after a guilt trip from Tazuna and assurances from the three genin that they could handle it, they decided to continue the mission.

After a mist obscured boat ride, the party arrived on the shores of the land of waves.
As they were walking along the beach, Sasuke noticed a presence in the forest. Pulling a shuriken from his leg holster, he flung it at where he thought the intruder was. Upon closer inspection, the shuriken had caused a white snow rabbit to faint.
'Snow rabbits' fur turns dark with increased sunlight. This one was kept in a cage for the purpose of kawarimi no jutsu.' "Everybody, they're here! Get down!" Kakashi yelled.
Just then, a giant executioner's blade came flying through the air, embedding itself in a tree. An instant later, a ninja was standing on the hilt.
"Zabuza Momochi, the demon of the bloody mist."
"Sharingan Kakashi, the copycat ninja."
"It seems our reputation precedes us. Protect Tazuna, I'll handle this one."
The three genin all drew kunai, as did Kakashi.
"I'm going to have to use this against an opponent of your caliber." Kakashi said, raising his hitae-ate to reveal his sharingan eye.
Sasuke was shocked. 'The sharingan is supposed to be unique to certain members of the Uchiha clan! Could he be…'
After a brief but vicious exchange of taijutsu and kenjutsu, [I'm not going to restate the fight. Look up the original] Kakashi ended up trapped in Zabuza's water prison jutsu, while Zabuza created a couple extra mizubunshin to finish off the others. Naruko was not about to stand for that however. Showing off her favorite hand sign, she created about two dozen kagebunshin. She then had one of them charge Zabuza's clone.
"You really think one clone is enough to defeat one tenth of my power?" Zabuza taunted.
"Yes, and one other thing… BOOM!" as soon as the clone got close, Naruko made another hand sign, and the clone exploded, blowing Zabuza's clone to kingdom come. The original then had the remaining clones form a perimeter around the real Zabuza and Kakashi.
Each clone, as well as the original, then drew a single shuriken and prepared to throw. Throwing the single shuriken, each Naruko flipped through a series of hand signs, calling out, "Shuriken kagebunshin no jutsu!" Suddenly the air was filled with shuriken, all of them flying directly at Zabuza.
Faced with either getting pin cushioned with spinning bladed shards of death, or releasing the water prison jutsu, Zabuza opted to drop the jutsu and cut the chakra to his feet. Moments before Naruko's plan came together in his liver, he slipped beneath the surface of the water to avoid the shuriken.
Kakashi jumped back away from Zabuza, and as the clones dispersed, the two jounin faced off again.
The rest of the fight consisted of Kakashi mimicking Zabuza's jutsu, until he finally started mimicking faster than the original. Caught in his own water jutsu, the fight looked to be over for Zabuza, when a pair of senbon needles flew out of nowhere and impaled Zabuza's neck, killing him. A kiri hunter nin then appeared, thanked the leaf ninja, and shunshined away.
Kakashi took that moment to collapse from chakra exhaustion.
The group made it to Tazuna's house uneventfully, and after Kakashi had recovered a little, tried to teach them tree climbing jutsu, only to find that Naruko had beat him to the punch, and had taught both tree climbing and water walking to her teammates. Impressed at her initiative, Kakashi told them to spend their time either training on their own, or to scout the bridge and protect Tazuna, as he knew Zabuza, while not dead, would take a while to recover from being put into a near death state with senbon.
Naruko had organized her fellow genin into shifts, where one of them would be with Tazuna at all times. During her down time, Naruko had decided to practice with the Kyuubi's chakra. During a break, Naruko noticed a young person walking in the woods.
"Who are you?" Naruko asked, walking up behind the teenager.
"Oh, hello! My name is Haku. You surprised me." Haku replied. "Aren't you one of those ninja that are here for the bridge?"
"You know that I am. You've been watching me for the last half hour. You aren't as stealthy as you thought you were, hunter san."
[LEMON BEGINS]
Haku stiffened, but Naruko put him off his guard when she ran her hand teasingly down his chest.
"So I was right, you are a boy. Or should I say, a man?"
Haku had been trained by Zabuza to deal with a myriad of different situations. This was not one of them. The moment Naruko touched him, his hormones kicked into overdrive, and he was having difficulty thinking clearly.
What he didn't know was that Naruko had subtly hit a series of pressure points on his chest with small blasts of chakra in order to get him in the mood.
Naruko quickly opened Haku's kimono, and pulled down his shorts, releasing a surprisingly large penis.
"Ooh, I like!" Naruko cooed, dropping to her knees and taking Haku into her mouth, and pressing another pressure point in his groin, the same one she had used on Sasuke.
Haku quickly came to full mast as Naruko lathed her tongue around his glans. Taking him deep into her throat for a couple of strokes, she fondled his balls with one hand while pressing another point with her other hand.
As Naruko alternated between licking the tip and taking his entire member deep into her throat, all the while pressing additional pressure points, Haku found himself in a world of pleasure he had previously never imagined. He grabbed her head with both hands and forced himself deeper into her throat.
Just then, Naruko pressed the final pressure point for her technique, and began rhythmically swallowing, as Haku was flung into a series of uncontrollable multiple orgasms, filling Naruko's stomach with spurt after spurt of jism until he passed out from pleasure overload.
Naruko followed him down as he collapsed, and after she released him with a wet plop, she quickly redressed her captive.
She then stripped herself from the waist down and began running her fingers over her clit. She sunk two fingers of her other hand deep within herself to rub her g-spot. Her practiced moves quickly brought herself to orgasm, releasing the tension that had built up while she was blowing Haku.
After redressing herself, she stood up and walked over to the unconscious boy.
END LEMON
Naruko carried her captive back to Tazuna's house. After carrying her charge up to Kakashi's room, she gathered everyone together and gave them a censored account of what had transpired. When Kakashi pressed her for more details, she just blushed and refused to answer.
I could have broken this chapter into two chapters, but figured you would appreciate a longer chapter. I'm trying to incorporate as much lemon as I can while staying true to my concept of what the characters would do. I would have included a Sasuke/Sakura scene, but they wouldn't have indulged in those types of activities during a mission. The only reason Naruko did was because it was part of the mission.
I'm also thinking of having a split at some point, spawning two separate series. I'd like to see what another author would do with my Naruko in a crossover situation. Eventually, I'm going to split this story into a crossover, and the original, quantum universes style. When that happens, I'd like someone to pick up one of the stories, so if anyone's interested, message me.
Thanks for reading.
Please review and tell me what you think.
