Author/Note: Hey thanks for clicking. This is my first Naruto Fanfiction please be nice.
This is an old story of mine and I have edited it and possibly changed some things here and there...
Any words in Italics are people thinking in their head or sounds that people make that aren't really words. Words that are Italic and bold are Japanese words (phonetically spelled).
I own nothing but 'The girl' and the story idea… I don't own Naruto or anything dealing with it if I did I would be making A LOT more money than I do now.
Chapter 1: The Fateful Encounter.
One sunny day in the Hidden Leaf Village there was an unknown chakra heading toward it. A man, in his mid-30's of average height with his face mostly hidden by his forehead protector over his left eye and a mask over his mouth, was wandering around the village reading a new issue of his favorite book. He happened to notice this new chakra. With a sigh to himself, he put away his book back into his back pouch, he hurried off to find the source of this new chakra.
At the same time a girl around the age of 14 with long black/purple-ish hair with a mesh undershirt, long tan cargo type shorts, and a light tan trench coat covering everything else, found herself wandering into a village that she had never been to, but had been told about; everything.
'I guess it is fate' she thought to herself, shaking her head as she walked through the gates. As she walked through the gates two nin-guards appeared in front of her.
"What business do you have here," one of the guards asked.
"I need to…" the girl was cut off.
"It doesn't matter she's from the Hidden Sound Village!" the other guard shouted as the two guards readied themselves. The second guard threw two kunai at the girl.
The girl smoothly dodged the first and lazily caught the second kunai and let it fall to the ground. She was getting irritated with these idiots and tapped her foot in annoyance, "Are you through," she started, as she now tapped on her forehead protector, "Did you REALLYlook?" They relaxed a bit but never letting down their guard for indeed her forehead protector was 'upside down' and had a scratch through the sound symbol. "As I was trying to say…" she glared at the ninja that hurled the kunai at her "I need to speak with your Hokage, Tsunade-sama."
"Fine but one of us will…," it was now the girls turn to cut the ninja off, by raising her hand.
Sincerely she said, "Konoha needs you two at the front and to keep the gate safe. For, I know that your forces are still weak from Orochimaru's attack so the more people the better. As you can tell I am no harm to you and your ANUB are much better than I." With a glance into the trees she smiled kindly at the and walked slowly past the two ninjas and into the city.
She stretched in the sun as she walked down the path laid in front of her. She had been traveling at night for the most part of three years. When she wasn't traveling at night the forests that she journeyed through were just as dark. She slowly and intently took off her tattered forehead protector and placed it carefully into one of her cargo pockets on her shorts, all the while thinking to herself, "Don't need any more idiots accusing me…" and as she was fastening the button on the pocket she felt a presents behind her, stiffened and turned around, "Crap Crap Crap! Did he see my band?"
"Hello?" a boy, with short spiky blond hair, just a smidgen shorter than she and wearing a horrible orange jumpsuit, was standing behind her. "This must be Uzumaki Naruto" the girl reflected. "Umm… Are you lost," he asked her.
The girl relaxed but not dropping her guard, chuckled, "Only in thought," she smiled at him but it didn't reach her eyes, "Well I do know that I'm on my way to meet with the Hokage."
"You're in luck," he said smiling and playing with his headband.
"Oh why is that," the girl going along with it.
"'Cuz' I'm the Hokage!" he said pointing at himself confidently, but obviously lying.
"Oh my how long has it been?" she sadly thought. She continued to play along, "Hokage, eh?" she walked around the boy to get a good look at him. But before she could say any more another person walked up to the two.
"Yo! I thought that you were too old to play Hokage, Naruto." The man's face was mostly covered by either his mask or his forehead protector.
Naruto's face fell and pouted, "Kakashi-sensei! Well, I will be Hokage one day!" he said as he grinned and put his arms behind his head.
"So I was right and he is Hatake Kakashi his squad leader, I didn't even hear him approach us…" the girl distracted, by her own thoughts.
Kakashi rolled his eyes then asked, "Who's this pretty lady," as he bent over slightly, smiling at her face to face. However he never let his guard down once.
The girl blushed, "Well… I… I was on my way to see the Hokage," only one other had ever called her pretty and really meant it, blushing less she continued "and… and Naruto here had volunteered to show me the way" She smiled.
Kakashi smiled knowing fully well that Naruto was actually on his way to train by himself. "Well Naruto I leave her in your capable hands, Ja-na" *POOF* and he was gone.
Naruto franticly looked around with shock, for being volunteered, written all over his face, "Sensei! Sensei! Where did he go?" He internally groaned and tried to sneak off, "Awww crap! I'm going to get killed if I go and see Baachan Tsunade"
The older girl tapped him on the shoulder, "Just where do you think your going?" she put her fists on her hips.
"Wow, she looks like Sakura when she dose that…" Naruto thought to himself, but shook his head clear and gave in "Nuhg, alright but you… you… have to…" his voice trailed off, he started to blush, turned away playing with his fingers in a shy way, and said very quietly and quickly, "…go have ranmen with me"
Puzzled the girl asked seriously, "Ranmen? What is ranmen?" most of her memories before Orochimaru were gone. This ranmen sounded like food and all that she can remember eating was gruel and stale or even moldy bread.
Naruto swirled around, "WAIT! WHAT!? WHAT'S RANMEN? You don't know what ranmen is? Where have you been? Under a rock or something?!"
She smiles a bit at how he reacted but is saddened that she missed out on so many things, "Naruto-kun? Will… Will you show me around after I see the Hokage? Please?"
Naruto was taken aback from her request, nodded and said a bit shyly "Umm… sure… I don't see why not." Then for the rest of the walk Naruto explained and described ranmen for her.
After about 10 minuets they found themselves in front of one of the tallest buildings in Konoha. Naruto led the girl up the stairs to the Hokage's office. "Well… here you go…" Naruto said a little sadly, most people tell him to shut up but she was genuinely listening to him, 'she's defiantly different,' "So uha… why did you need to see Baachan Tsunade?"
The girl sighed sadly, "You will know soon enough," she removed her tattered forehead protector from her shorts and replaced it on her head 'her' way. "I will tell you what you want to know after word Naruto-kun." Without another word or glance at Naruto she walked in to the Hokage's office.
Naruto was confused, he paced the hallway thinking, "Her headband… was it sound village? I think so… but it had a scratch… I think… but didn't she also put it on 'upside down'?" He scratched his head in frustration. Naruto decided to go ahead and go in. As he turned the knob to the door he heard a body hit the floor. He swung the door open yelling "Baachan," he looked around and saw the girl on the floor across the room from Tsunade, "What happened?!" he was looking back and forth between the girl and Tsunade.
The large breasted Hokage looked over at Naruto annoyed, "What did I tell you?! Don't call me that, brat." She sighed, "She startled me she'll be fine in a few hours." She waved her hand unconcernedly as she turned back around looking for something on the bookshelf.
After a few moments the girl started to move. She coughed multiple times, and a few times with blood. She only dared to get to her knees, bowing said, "Fifth Hokage of Konoha and famous Sannin, Tsunade please hear my situation," she coughed a few more times but made no other movement.
Tsunade sighed, "Fine... Fine… I'm surprised that you're still conscious. Alright, get to your feet," she commanded.
The girl was almost half way up when she collapsed. Naruto started for the girl but she held out her hand to stop him, "Orochimaru wasn't lying about you exceeding strength," she stated as she staggered to her feet, swaying as she stood.
"Naruto leave and get Shikamaru for me please…" Tsunade said in a weird strained voice.
"But Orochimaru…" Naruto seethed gritting his teeth, he glared at the girl.
Even though she was not facing the boy she could feel his cold stare and her shoulders dropped slightly, "As I told you Naruto-kun you will know soon enough." She said sad-like.
Still glaring Naruto ran out the still open door and slammed it as he left. The two women winced at the sound, "So," Tsunade walked over to her big over stuffed 'Hokage' chair and sat down, "You seem know my name," she folded her hands together and looked at the girl, "What is your name, ninja?"
The girl got to her knees once more. Bowing humbly she said, "I am Kisho. Haruka Kisho"
