It had been five years since Tsunade had left the Leaf Village. She had a nice home in her part of the royal palace in the land of ogres. She had gotten her own room, Shizune her's, a room for Naruko, a library, and a guest room, even though there were other guest rooms in the house.
Naruko had grown up to be a girl that resembled herself, with some of Minato mixed in. Little Naruko had gotten her light blonde hair, and now wore it low hanging ponytails down her back, just as her mother did. She had also gotten her face and eye shape from her mother, while she got the beautiful deep blue eyes of her father. She had a flawless face and a cute nose. She decided that she wanted to look like her mom, so she wore a gray T-shirt, she would switch to the kind of shirt her mom had when she was older. She wore blue pants and already had started taking a liking to the type of heels her mom wore. But the thing that made her so recognizable to Tsunade was her long green coat, on the back, there was a red circle with a kanji for 'Senju' on it. She decided if she ever took a particular liking to something, like her mom did with gambling, that she would replace the kanji on the back with that. She had a blue diamond in the middle of her forehead that her mother had placed, just in case she ever needed it. Even though it shortened her life to use the regeneration technique, she would rather have Naruko live a slightly shorter life than no life at all. All in all, she looked like a mini Tsunade, and was extremely cute.
Her mother had started training her when she turned the age of three. Turns out, she had the precise chakra control her mom had, while still gaining the enormous amount of chakra from both of her parents. Her mother had started training her in medical ninjutsu right away, with help from Shizune of course. When one of the guards got sick, they would go and heal them while Naruko watched carefully and observed what they did to help him.
Naruko had also started to work on the monstrous strength her mom had. She wasn't anywhere near Tsunade's level, but she still had a lot of time to master it. While her mother could create a crater a hundred feet wide and five feet deep with just her fist, Naruko could only make a crater that was twenty feet wide and 1 foot deep. Still, it was an amazing feat for a five year old.
She had already started learning jutsu, with her precise chakra control and vast amount of chakra, she could learn everything from a simple clone jutsu to the rasengan. So far, she had mastered all of the academy techniques, a bunch of medical ninjutsu, Shadow Clone jutsu, the rasengan, her mother's strength, regeneration jutsu, and had just started to learn how to control her chakra nature and start working on wind jutsus.
Naruko, even though she spent quite a bit of time training, still got to be a normal kid. She and Shion had become best friends over the years, and she had even gotten the fellow blonde to start training to become a shinobi one week after she had started.
Since Shion wasn't from a ninja clan and her chakra coils weren't like Naruko's, what with her having a Sannin and Hokage for a parent, she was still progressing well. Shion had trained in the medical ninjutsu area as well, and was now just as good as Naruko. She didn't have the chakra control of Naruko, but still was very good for her age. She had been a water type, so they had started teaching her some water style jutsus, like water clones and even the water dragon. She also had her abilities from being the next priestess. Her mother had originally intended to not teach her daughter any of the jutsu other than the sealing jutsu, but after seeing her training as a shinobi, she knew her daughter would have a much better chance of survival if she had them, so she decided to teach them to her daughter.
Both girls were extremely talented ninja, but it wasn't because of the blood that ran through them. It started with Naruko, she wanted to protect not only her mother and her 'nee-chan' as she called Shizune, but her best friend and the woman and man she viewed as her uncle and aunt, who were the priestess and her husband. She also viewed Shion's newborn baby sister, Hana, only a month old, as someone she wanted to protect. These were her precious people, the reason she trained as hard as she did without hesitation. Then, Shion wanted to be able to stand alongside Naruko, she viewed Naruko's family as a part of her own, and she wanted to protect them as well as the guards of their house, who had protected them and some, given their lives to make sure they lived. She wanted to be strong for all of them.
They were very close to everybody around them, but even more so to each other. They were always with each other, laughing, and just enjoying a carefree life. Almost every night they slept in the same room, they called it 'a never ending sleepover' since one of them never had to go home, since they both lived together. Tsunade was watching them at the moment, they were playing tag in the back yard, unlike most kids, they weren't limited to the ground, they went up the walls of the house, over the small lake that was in the back yard, and even up the waterfall and cliffs.
Her thoughts drifted back to the day her beloved daughter was born. Then she couldn't help but think about that boy who contained the Kyuubi. Sarutobi had sent her letters talking about the boy who contained it after she had started sending some that he had asked for so he would know how Naruko and her were doing. She couldn't help but feel bad for the boy. His mother had died from Child birth and his father had died during the attack. He was made an orphan and took his mother's name for some reason. Naruto Uzumaki. He was Kushina's son, she had met the woman once or twice, she was one of her husband's ex girlfriends. His father was just some random Jounin from the Leaf. He had been sacrificed for her daughter, but she knew it was better this way. Naruko already had a big X on her head, after all, being the daughter of one of the Sannin and the Fourth Hokage, never mind the Senju heiress. Being the container of the Kyuubi would just send more people trying to either kidnap her or kill her.
Tsunade sighed and went into the kitchen where Shizune was sitting. She went to the stove and started boiling some water for tea. She sat down at the table and looked at what Shizune was reading, she smiled. Time to tease her student!
"Ne, Shizune, by any chance are those love letters?" She asked.
Shizune turned deep red and scrambled to hide the letter. "Wh-wwhhhaaaat? No No no, No letters here! I don't know what your talking about Lady Tsunade!" She said.
Tonton just oinked sadly, a bit unhappy at Shizune's attempt to cover it up. Tsunade laughed.
"Oh, then what are those letters then?" She asked.
"Ummm... n-nothing! I mean... they're just from... Hokage-sama! Yeah, that's it! Hokage-sama!" She said.
"Nee-chan's got a boyfriend!" They heard from behind them. They turned to see Naruko and Shion standing in the doorway.
"No I don't!" Shizune said.
"Oh, Shizune, I didn't realize you went that way!" Tsunade said, making Shion and Naruko crack up.
"Tsunade-sama! I'm not a lesbian! I'm into guys, and... this is a love letter." She admitted, dropping her head in defeat.
"Nee-chan, why didn't you want us to know?" Shion asked, her and Naruko sitting down at the table.
"Well... because I know Tsunade will mock me..." She said.
"Why, who are they from?" Naruko asked.
Shizune stayed quiet for a minute, then quietly whispered. "Kakashi Hatake." Tsunade burst into laughter. Shion looked questioningly at Naruko who just shrugged, neither of them recognized that name.
"Shizune, who would have thought that you would have a fling with my husband's favorite student!" She paused to laugh some more, she quieted down after a minute or so. "At least I could have understood Obito, he was pretty carefree and a good kid, but last I saw, Kakashi seemed to serious to me."
"Tou-chan's student? Can I meet him!? Is he cool!? What rank of Ninja is he?! Can he do anything like Tou-chan did?! The Rasengan?! Can he summon Toads?! What about The Hirashin?! What does he look like?! Are he and Nee-chan gonna get married?! If so, could I call him Nii-san?!" Naruko asked in the space of an instant.
Tsunade burst into laughter at the last two questions, where as Shizune turned even redder.
"Naruko-chan! Me and Kakashi aren't getting married!" She exclaimed.
"Sorry, I was just wondering. Besides, anyone who can do the Rasengan is wicked cool! They are as awesome as me!" Naruko said.
"Ha Ha! Funny you should say such a thing! So you claim that I am awesome eh? Well you don't know how right you are!" Said a white-haired man who had just jumped through the window.
"Who are you?" Shion asked.
"Well, Some call me the Frog Hermit. But the Title Frog Hermit is merely a disguise! I shall tell you my true Identity... I am the man who has no enemies in the North, South, East, and West! Not even in the heavens! I am one of the Sannin... White-haired frog tamer. Even a crying baby would stare in awe... The great Jiraiya! That is me!" He yelled, while doing a weird dance.
Tsunade groaned. "Jiraiya, why are you here?" She asked.
"Sorry Tsunade, was I too loud, I figured you would have fixed your hangover by this time of day." he said.
Tsunade punched him on the head, but not too hard, so she could still talk to and question him. "You idiot!" She yelled. "I haven't had a drop of Sake or any alcohol since I was pregnant with Naruko! I quit then, and I wanted to take proper care of my child so I quit that stuff!"
"Really?" Jiraiya asked. "I didn't think you could ever do that. What about gambling, do you still do that?" He asked.
She shook her head. "No, I didn't want to be in debt with my child around. Someone might have tried to take her and trade her for money, and I never wanted Naruko to be a kid half the time and a hostage for the other."
"Wait, you know the Rasengan? Who are you, and why do you know Kaa-san?" Naruko asked.
"Well kid, I am a very close friend to her. I was on her genin team and I am a fellow Sannin. I do know the rasengan, since my student, and your father taught me it." Jiraiya said.
"A fellow Sannin?! That means you're totally awesome! Just like Kaa-san!" She said.
"Naruko, I don't want you to trust him to much. He is a total Pervert." Tsunade said.
"Tsunade, not only would I refrain from doing that stuff around her because she is a girl, but also because she is your daughter, which makes her someone who is important to me, and someone I wouldn't want to upset." Jiraiya said.
Tsunade smiled at her old friend. "You want to sit and have some tea? Maybe talk about the past few years?" She asked.
"I would love to." He said, taking the seat next to Tsunade's.
"Kaa-san! Can I please have some tea too?" Naruko asked.
"And me too?" Shion asked.
Tsunade laughed. "Don't you two always get tea?" She said.
The two nodded. Then they looked at the white-haired man.
"So, you must be really strong!" Shion said.
"Why yes I am! Say, I'll be around here for awhile, why don't I teach you two a few tricks?" He said.
"Yes please, Jiraiya-sensei!" Both girls said at the same time.
Jiraiya laughed. "Alright! I like these kids! They've got a good attitude and a healthy respect for the older generations." He said.
The day went on and Tsunade reconnected with Jiraiya, as well as Shion and Naruko learning a lot about their new sensei.
At the end of the day, Jiraiya walked up to Tsunade.
"Tsunade, what do you say about going on a date with me? Just the two of us?" Jiraiya said.
Tsunade thought about for the first real time. She did love him, she really did, but she had never thought about him that way. He was a good man, and even though he was perverted, he was great with her daughter and Shion earlier. She had known him forever and he had always been there for her.
"Okay, but only if you promise to try to make a real relationship. You have to be a real gentleman, and if you want to ever be truly with me, then you have to stop this whole peeping on women thing. Otherwise, it's off, got it?" She said.
Jiraiya was surprised she had actually accepted. He agreed to the terms and they went out on a date.
~Time Skip, 7 years later~
Naruko got up with a groan at the annoying sound of her alarm clock. She tried to get back to sleep, only to fail. She laid there for a minute until she heard.
"Gaki! Shut up that Damn Alarm Clock!" Jiraiya, her step-father, yelled from the other room. He never was a morning person, just like herself.
She groaned and rolled out of bed. She hit the alarm clock and walked to her dresser. She pulled out a shirt, now she wore one that was exactly like her mother's. She pulled on some black pants. She looked at herself and the mirror and started forming her two low hanging ponytails down her back. Her hair reached her butt now, and she loved it. It looked a lot like her mother's too, the same color, but she inherited the silky smoothness of her father's hair, something that many women from the nearby village were jealous of. It was hard to get your hair like that, and Naruko didn't even have to try.
She had matured a lot. She was now twelve, but she stood at an impressive 5 foot 4, tall for her age, but then again, as a medic nin, she knew how important it was to eat healthy. She was thin, but muscular from all of the training she had done since she was 3. Unlike her mother, she had matured very early, but, the one thing they shared in that area, was their breast size. She had D-cups, even though she was still twelve, her mother had laughed and told her that she had inherited her good looks, as well as her boobs.
She walked over to her door and slid on her green jacket, still labeled with the kanji for 'Senju' on the back. She had decided she would keep it like that, she was proud of her family name, especially after what happened two years ago.
Flashback!
Naruko and Shion were training in the woods, testing out new forms of their jutsu, when a group of 5 Jounin dropped down from the trees.
"Come easily and we won't hurt you." One of them said.
"Oh please! We can beat you, easy!" Naruko said, she was cocky on the outside, but on the inside, she was scared. She had fought Jounin before with Shion, but normally just one or two, never 5 at the same time. She got ready to do some hand signs, but since she was so scared, her bloodline decided to awaken itself instead.
A giant tree popped out of the ground and wrapped around the Jounin.
"W-What's going on?" One of them yelled.
Naruko of course, knew of her great-grandfather''s ability and quickly channeled chakra into the tree. It grew and squeezed around the Jounin.
"Wh-what is this?" One of them asked.
"It seems as if my great-grandfather wasn't the only one who had this ability after all. Hm, guess it was a bloodline. Probably just took a few generations to stabilize." Naruko said.
"Great-grandfather?" One of them asked.
"Yes, but you know of him as... Hashirama Senju." She said.
"Your a Senju!? And you can use Mokuton?!" One of them said.
"Yes, and you will be the first to suffer from it." She said as she squeezed them in the tree, killing them. She retracted the tree down into ground and took hold of some of the dead bodies. She drew up a sealing scroll like her tou-chan (She now refers to Jiraiya as Tou-chan) had taught her.
Flashback End
She had now mastered the Mokuton ability. She had the help of all of her Great-grandfather's scrolls. He had wrote and left them in case it turned out to be a bloodline.
No one knew of her bloodline yet, and she knew that she would be greatly feared once they found out. She picked up her heels and walked to the kitchen while pulling them on.
"Hey Kaa-san, Tou-chan, Nee-chan, Shion-chan, Auntie, Uncle, Hana-chan." Naruko aid as she sat at the table.
"Jeez gaki. Took you long enough to get out of bed today. And on such an important day too." Jiraiya said.
Naruko looked at him and smiled. They had decided to go back to the Leaf Village. She wanted to see and live where not only her birth father, but her mom and father today were from. She could also see Kakashi, Shizune's lover. He had come and visited them of course, since he was dating Shizune. He still didn't know of Naruko's strength yet though. Shion was coming as well, since her little sister was born, she didn't have to be the priestess. She wanted to see the world and become a ninja, she would be with her best friend the whole time too. They were both very excited.
Shion had grown into a beautiful young lady too. She had started wearing a yellow jacket with a white cropped shirt. She had pink shorts and she had also taken to wearing the heels that her best friend and Aunt (Tsunade is who she considers her aunt) tended to wear. She had matured like her friend had too, also gaining D-cup breasts, and she was only an inch shorter than her. She wore her blonde hair down her back, tied at the end with a small elastic.
Everyone had an enjoyable breakfast and then it came to the goodbyes, it was very emotional for all of them, they had grown so used to each other that it'd be weird not all living under the same roof. But they would visit whenever they could. They each had a backpack full of scrolls, all having sealed possessions in them. They gave each other hugs and kisses, and with that, the groups split apart, Shion's family minus Shion staying behind, and Naruko's family plus Shion heading towards Konoha.
Naruko realized that when they got there, it would be the last day of the academy. She smiled at the thought of showing up on the last day and totally crushing the exam, hell, they could have crushed the exam at the age of five.
Shion's family and their entire guard watched as they walked away, wondering when they would see their beloved friends, no, family, again.
