"My lord~" a very sachirine female voice echoed throughout the Malfloy manor causing Shikamaru to shiver in fear. That woman who was not a woman terrifies him a lot because she can copy his wife which was scary in itself. Shikamaru rather thought that she was doing it on purpose too!
"Lucius, have you seen Shika… I mean the lord?" the voice asked.
"No."
Thank the sage for loyal servants.
"Really? Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Really, really sure?"
"Yes, Bella. I haven't seen the lord at all."
Shikamaru began to think of ways on how he could thank this loyal servant.
"Are you lying to me, Luci?"
"…. No"
"IF YOU WON'T TELL ME I'D TELL CISSY THAT YOU STOLE HER TARTS, DATTEBAYO!"
"He's in the office."
That disloyal piece of shit!
The door opens and Shikamaru tried to look bored because there is absolutely no way he could hide from this maelstrom disaster who was intentionally imitating Temari. A few knew but this loud person was a surprisingly skilled infiltrator and actor.
"Hi, Shika!"
"… Naruto."
Yes, the infamous Bellatrix Black was once called Uzumaki Naruto. Rumours say that Lord Voldemort and she have an affair (Absolutely not! Temari would kill him). Others say that she killed Rabastan to get away from their arranged marriage (Or was it Rudolphous? Shikamaru can't tell the difference between them).
Albus Dumbledore had been worried for the bright and cheerful Hufflepuff witch falling in love with the notorious Dark lord. Shikamaru would like to state otherwise.
There was no way Naruto would ever be innocent. The slick bastard probably sweet talked the hat putting her into that house as a prank while convincing her parents that she was truly cunning for being in a house never suspected of being dark.
"You do know that Temari would kill you if you ignore how your followers kill people."
He glared at her and her lilac eyes danced in amusement. The color might have been different but the gleam of mischief was the same. Why did he even wished for this troublesome-not-blonde-anymore to land in the same world as him?
"I hate you, Naruto. I really do."
He laughed in a loud feminine sort of way which was really creepy in Shikamaru's opinion because he was seeing Naruto's younger form, with the orange jumpsuit and all.
"Hey, it's not my idea to start training minions and gaining immortality. That was all yours."
"I really do hate you."
"Seriously, Shikamaru," his began with a sigh "You really do need to man up! You can't avoid Temari forever."
"Never hurts to try," Shikamaru murmured under his breath. He did not even listen to Naruto's sensless babbling.
" –and then I suspected that Temari's going to be reborn. And hopefully Hinata-chan would join and do you know what we co-"
"What?" Shikamaru interrupted when he heard Temari and reborn in a sentence. He was thinking that his luck should not be that bad.
"Didn't I tell you that Temari followed you that day?" Naruto looked at him with a frown. "I even thought that she would arrive here faster than me. She's your wife after all."
That day, the manor heard a shrieked of anger from their lord and a maiden cackling in delight. That was also the start rumors of the Dark Lord and his Dark Lady.
Tenshi: I'm back~ Real life makes me busy and our professors are merciless. Anyways, for those who thought that Naruto will be born as Harry… well sorry, I was planning that he would be Bellatrix from the start. But anybody could answer the question on who Harry is this time around.
It's during this time that you could finally see the path diverging. Seriously, Canon!Bellatrix as a Hufflepuff? Her only badger trait was her twisted loyalty. Naruto on the other hand, being Hokage was subjected to political manoeuvres and could be sly and cunning. It's fortunate that he's loyal and hard-working then. Of course, with Naruto on the picture, he would be breaking expectations left and right. Shikamaru on the other hand, had no motivation to correct other people's misunderstandings because in his own opinion, avoiding Temari is a better option. If others think he's a freak and evil, who cares? If others think he's a dark lord, he'll exploit it so he can have minions to order around! If someone mentions that his wife arrived, he'd run away as fast as possible. Naruto here just loved to troll people so he's more involved with people.
As to Naruto's pronoun changing to female and male, it's because as Bellatrix Black, he's biologically female but he still identifies with his male identity.
As you can see here, there are more misunderstandings where in Bellatrix was thought to be the Dark lord's lover. Wonder what Temari would think of that?
