Okay first things first, Bleach and Naruto belongs to Kubo and Kishimoto not mine...otherwise ITACHI WOULD STILL BE ALIVE!

Naruto woud've had a younger twin sister and she would probably dated Gaara/Itachi/Neji/Shikamaru/Sai

This one idea I took to the one shoujo manga I've read and please if anyone knows about the full series called Shinobi Life...please, please let me know immediately.

It's about Vasta Lorde...only ONE difference though...Vasta Lorde took them into a different time, they can't time travel though...everything will later be explained.

I really didn't know what to do, but I am kinda depressed, anyhow, I've finally written this and a bit spoilers, alret, about how Shirayuki looks like and also I'm not so sure about her eyes...

That said please enjoy and tell me what you think :)


In glimpses of battles,

Some are won, others are lost to us,

In frozen times, do we dirft apart to become stronger?

In glimpses of silences,

We meet lot of faces, some we will loose along the way,

Others we gain back,

I've gained a friend in you.

In glimpses of seperations,

We learn and must succeed in

What life is teaching us,

It is one tough lesson

I've gained you back...

CHAPTER 5:

A CHALLENGE

Rukia and Naruto walked together back to the Nara household, "…Naruto, the summoning no jutsu…what happens when you just summon the animal, before you made a contract with them?" She asked curiously, "Well…you get teleported to the animal's place." Naruto answered, "Oh…" They both walked in silence, then when they were at last in front of the Nara's house, "…Naruto, I've remembered something else, can we sit in front of Mrs Youchina and Mr Shikaku Nara's house please there's something I need to share with you?" She asked, he sat next to her on the ground, "I'm trying to remember who is calling out to me, like a…I don't know how to explain it, but…I know it's a woman's voice…but I remember" – it was another raining season inside Konohagakure, not the ones that tells the Shinobi that one or another Konohagakure Shinobi/Kunoichi died, just normal raining weather.

Rukia did say good-bye to Naruto and felt while he hugged her only to comfort her, a blush came on and she loved every single bit of a happiness sweeping through her body, she still heard that name and she wondered while she looked at the raindrops, "…Shirayuki…huh?" She said softly, all around her the rain drops fallen from the sky on the outside of her window, making her want to dance in the rain; Youchina came inside her bedroom, "…Rukia is everything all right?" She asked curiously, Rukia didn't eat or made the usual night time drinks for her and everyone inside their house, although Shikaku was on a men's night out with his old team mates and friends, "Ye-Yes everything is all right Youchina-san." Rukia answered, Youchina knew that it was an outright lie, "…Rukia who is Shirayuki? You're older sister?" She enquired.

The next morning at half past four when her usual alarm clocks wanted to wake her up, Rukia was already training in the backyard of the Nara household, Youchina showed for Rock Lee and Maito Gui and his whole class group exactly where Rukia was, "…She started to train since two o'clock in the morning." Youchina replied hiding a yawn, "If you'll excuse me, I'm going back to bed." She said waiting for them to leave, Rukia kept on training till it was breakfast time, "Rukia, it's time for breakfast." Youchina said softly, "I'll be right there, still need to prefect this…move." She replied to Youchina, "All right then, just remember that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and it's also a Nara rule…all dining hours is at these times and is spent around the table before you go and do your own training." She said, "H-hai." Rukia answered and stopped for a moment to go and eat quickly breakfast, after breakfast she started to train again.


Rukia was busy taking a bath when she heard that distance voice again, around her it seems as though she was inside a Genjutsu area; "Kai." She said as she tried to dispel the Genjutsu; nothing happened it still stayed the same, "Rukia if you call out my name, you will see it's not a Genjutsu at all." The voice said soothingly calm. "Who are you?" Rukia asked a bit nervous and at ease at one weird point, "Seems that the Vasta Lorde has injured my heart, that you even forget my name…try to remember, when you do remember it will be easier for you to summon my rabbits to help you in the Shinobi world." The same voice said sadly with a cold attitude, "Something I must share with you, my heart; there is no room to be a losing heart at all; don't you agree." She said challenging her out, knowing that Rukia can't resist a challenge at all, Youchina and Shikaku couldn't open the bathroom door at all, and when they opened it with Shikaku's shadow bind, the air was again normal, Youchina walked in first, "…Rukia, are you all right?" She asked again, "She challenged me." Rukia said happily, "Challenged you?" Youchina asked quickly scanning the room to see if there's anybody here that used ice at all, but she found none.

Rukia had to get dressed quickly and went out to immediately beginning with her training, "Sakura…what can we do for you?" Youchina asked quickly, "…Is Rukia-san here?" The pinkkette doctor asked, "Yes, just wait a minute. Rukia Haruno Sakura is here, it's for your training with Team Kakashi." She called friendly, Rukia stormed form the back training grounds to the front of the house, "Oh, thank you Youchina-san." Rukia said waving good-bye to them.

It was like this, Sakura trained with Sai and Naruto trained with Rukia, Yamamoto just stared and helped with the new team formation training, then all four of the teenagers had to go and fight against Yamamoto-Taichou. Naruto and Rukia did a hand-hand training very well, Rukia always ended somehow on the ground and Naruto on top of her. Then Sakura started to train with Rukia Taijutsu with Rukia and told her, she wants to see how well Rukia can control her chakra and how well she can dispel the Genjutsus. It was when it was time for lunch when Yamamoto-Taichou called a break time and everyone went to Ichiraku Ramen shop, "Naruto, have you taught Rukia about chakra control?" Sakura asked, "Not yet Sakura-chan." Naruto answered, "Rukia…I'm going to challenge you to complete this training in a fewer days then I did when I was thirteen years old. For now you're going to climb a tree, using the kunai and try to beat my old record." Sakura said with a challenging gleam in her eyes, "How long did it take for you to complete this training successfully?" Rukia asked, "Oh, the tree climbing exercises! Rukia-chan, I have to tell you this." Naruto went on in detail on how he and his old team mate, here Sakura and Naruto gave sad smiles, Rukia turned quickly to see what does Sai and Yamamoto taught about this, they only stared sadly at how the happy memories brought back the painful ones.


Rukia started to climb the tree using only her feet, but she fell a few times. Rukia kept on training. Naruto decided to train with her on the tree climbing training, while concentrating on her tree and her chakra at the same time.

Sakura and Sai had to come and get Rukia and their team mate, Uzumaki Naruto from the training fields into the Ninja Academy, "Haruno-san and Sai-san over here!" Rukia called, they both stared up in unison, Rukia was on top of the toppest branch of a Sakura tree and Naruto the next tree with the exact same height. Rukia smiled but looked worse than Naruto did.

Naruto and Rukia went back to the training fields and both started to train after classes, Yamamoto had to go and oversee how the twosome trained and had to inform Shikaku and Youchina that Rukia will be keep on training, everyone saw her as a third Naruto or a Rock Lee who keeps on training. The two fell asleep on the grass, Rukia lain with her one hand asking to hold it, Naruto's hand on top of hers, Rukia unconsciously slowly closed her hand in Naruto's, Naruto unconsciously squeezing their united hands.


In the distant future…

The future Rukia came back tiredly, but happy from her date, "…Are you all right?" She asked kindly, Renji and Ichigo kept on blushing, Byakuya well was watching her from the shadows without the others releasing it. "…Y-Yes." Ichigo said, his voice going a bit too deep, "…All right then, I've got some good news and some bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" Rukia asked, she had worn a beautiful kimono for it was her and her husband's second date, "…Bad news." Chad said, "The bad news is…we cannot teleport you back, even with the help of the mad scientist Taichou-Kurotsuchi's latest development." Rukia answered, standing next to her Nii-sama, "The good news is…it all depends on my past self, when she remembers who you are, not just names; but everything that makes you, well you, then you can go back in your time." Rukia answered, "I'll take these dishes and get you enough food for the night, and I'll bring some extra warm blankets for you all. But first tell me…how was your first night here?" She asked, the men looked quite embarrassed, "Midget, you better tell you're past self to remember us all, because it's going nuts to sleep next to Pineapple head over here!" Ichigo said, Rukia smiled a perfectly fake smile, then the next second Ichigo went and a whole in the wall was made, "Ichigo, I've forgotten to tell you this, but I'm a lot shorter tempered then when I was one hundered and fifty years ago." She said in a deadly calm voice.


Rukia kept on training the next few days and felt more and more self confident that she completed this training quickly, the entire Academy students had to sit and wait in the next room for their results, Rukia was excellent in all the jutsus, Naruto came in to wish her good luck, "Rukia-chan, never underestimate anyone, for it's our secret weapon, whenever an enemy shinobi underestimate us, we use it against them." Naruto warned her, "…All right." She said, when it was her name to be called, they wanted to see if she can perform a replacement technique perfectly, she did it then.

She wondered if she must show it to Naruto. "Rukia-chan! I'm so glad you did it; let's go to Ichiraku Ramen to celebrate!" Naruto said giving her a hug from behind her, she blushed furiously, "Naruto, it's troublesome, but why don't you join us for dinner, you can bring as many ramen as you like to our home." Shikamaru asked, Rukia looked curiously over at who was inviting him, "Shikamaru, when did you return?" Naruto asked happily that his friend is safe inside Konohagakure, "Recently while you were inside, mum said that if Rukia wants to invite you over to join us, you're more than welcome." He explained quickly. Naruto stared curiously over at Rukia, "Yes, Naruto please join us." She said, he smiled and said, "Believe it! What do your mother likes as a thank you gift Shikamaru?" Naruto enquired, "Stay out of the kitchen is a thank you gift in itself." He replied quickly, remembering when his mother gave him the deadliest death glare and gave him a troublesome speech, that made him storm out of the kitchen quickly.


They all celebrate and Rukia was so glad that, she also asked for Ino if she and Sakura are still best friends, Ino smiled and told her all about how their friendship started, when Rukia and Ino was alone, "…Ino-san, we women are really stupid; but still don't you agree, that friendship is more important than a simple crush?" She asked, last night when she was asleep she dreamt about her first friend, they were both kids and how they've met each other. He always made certain that she was late, "Uh oh, I know that look." Naruto said friendly, joining the girls was Shikamaru, Choji and Naruto. "Wanna share with us?" Naruto asked friendly smiling to her, "Yes, I've grown up in this place called Rukongai, the poorest district; you had to do whatever it takes to survive, then I remember meeting my first friend…" She told them in detail how they did what they had to do to survive, like stealing food and water, bathing in the lakes as the foursome travelled in the Rukongai for a better district with more cleaning areas, how they had to find shelter for the rain and nothing you own was your own belongings, how their friends suddenly died and she mentioned to him that they must become something. Naruto stared at her sadly, "Rukia-chan it seems that your memory is returning to a fast pace." Ino said after long moments of sympathy silence, "Yes, I guess she is helping me a lot to remember and also she is challenging me to remember her name." Rukia said matter of factly, "Who is she?" Choji asked. She looked at Ino and asked the next weirdest thing ever, "Ino…when you do get married someday and you have a daughter what name would you give her?" She enquired all the boys talked quickly about the latest jutsus and how their training is going with them.

"Shirayuki, why?" Ino asked after recovering from shock, "That's it, Thank you so much Ino, you're the best!" Rukia said giving a hug to Ino, Ino returned it though after she was again recovered from shock for the second time that same night.

After the party Rukia dreamt in this dream, she dreamt about someone calling out to her, this time in her dream she completed the first challenge by saying her name, the vision became clear and in front of her stood a very beautiful woman with long pale-blue hair, her hair on the left is clipped with a star-shield like hair clipper, light blue eyes, right side hair was cut shorter than the rest of her hair, she wore a white and light blue Furisode kimono, the top part was reaching the ground and the bottom part was long and covered her feet, "Yes, Rukia-sama, now let me tell you everything that you've forgotten." She said kindly to her only.


P.S. I was a tad bit too lazy and I really don't know how to, I'm kinda new with research and stuff that's why I've took this summoning no jutsu from Narutopedia.

I'm sorry I've brought two times the Medical Ninjutsu...it's important for Rukia's Summoning No Jutsu...

Right now, what I can tell you as you've read, is that the Vasta Lorde's Partner had a katanna and when it's sliced at the right angle, it can make the enemy forget important details; like family members, friends, where you come from, so and in order to get the memory back you've got to work extremely hard to get it back bit by bit.

P.S. I've decided on the whim that Shikamaru and Rukia will have a close brother-sister relationship, here you can decide whether he must date Ino/Temari/girl with the glasses, so sorry my cds with the new Shippuunden has gotten a few errors and now I've forgotten what her name was that worked inside the Information Centre.
