Hello again,

I know I said i would update this earlier, but I had writer's block. I got over it after playing monopoly with my mom and she cheated but anyways what you all have been waiting for... *drum roll* CHAPTER ONE!


Chapter One: A Criminal's Mind

Sounds of machines, money, and excitement could be heard from the end of most blocks. Dozens of people stopped by every night trying to see where the source of the noise was coming from or to enjoy another night at the place. All it came to be was a casino. It was no regular casino, it was the five star casino resort, Lucky Kunai, that attracted thousands of customers nightly. Many that came in never came back out.

Lucky Kunai attracts most of their customers with the enticing sounds drawing them in. Once in, they would bet and gambling away almost all their money then scrap up enough money to purchase a room. If they ended up lucky and winning, most got big-headed only to lose it all while others kept it to gamble it away the next night. Either way, the casino lured people to gamble only to gamble the people out more of their money.

The casino has many regular customers, but one managed not to be tricked by the ways of gambling. People didn't know if she cheated under their noses or if she was naturally lucky, but she never lost money, only gain at least three times the amount she came in with. Whenever she was in the building and her skills got out, people surrounded the table she occupied to watch the woman work coming out amazed. She was truly a lucky woman.

No one really knew the one women, for none really saw her around Konoha. Many thought she resembled the Namikaze's heir, but ruled that out because it was no way she was so brash and oblivious nor did her mostly orange attire fit the heir's professionalism. No one knew her name, but could instantly point her out by her striking golden blonde hair and luring cerulean orbs. Many thought the mysterious woman was flat out gorgeous. Men drooled once laying eyes on her, and women often picked fights with her.

The sounds coming from the casino continued loudly as the night passed by. The sky was dark and plain. No stars decorated the sky, only the lights of signs from the businesses open late at night. In the black fog, a silver Porsche pulled up to the doors of Lucky Kunai. The passenger door open to reveal none other than Naruko Uzumaki. She was wearing a white button down blouse with a pair of floral skinny jeans and black flats. Her hair was put in a high ponytail while her long bangs shaped her face. Naruko waved bye to whoever drove her before shutting the door and walking up to the doors of Lucky Kunai. The sounds flooded her ears and a sly smile appeared on her face.

She was here for one reason and one reason only, to gamble. She wasn't going to gamble her money, not like she did anyway. She was gambling her ex-husband's money increasing it drastically. She found what she was doing was fair. Sasuke caused her so much pain throughtout all the years she has known him, and she forgave him everytime even now with this divorce going through. To get back at him, she did things to irk his nerves like taking his most priced possession, his money. She knew he would react and try to get back at her but would give up because she was too far in the lead of the race. Then he would eventually come back to her. Gambling his money is going to be sixth things she did while stealing his money was the first.

This all started when she caugh Sasuke sleeping with her ex-best friend, Sakura Haruno, who couldn't seem to keep her hands off anybody Naruko has interest in. Naruko was coming home late from visiting her beloved Baa-chan with great news to tell Sasuke. Sasuke had been depressed for weeks because the Uchiha corporation sales were going down, and he couldn't find ways to pull them. Naruko hoped her news would bring him out of his depression. Once home, Naruko saw bottles and clothes scattered throughout the hallway. She went through the house to find Sasuke pounding into her friend who was enjoying every bit of it. Sasuke was fucking Sakura in their bedroom in their bed. Naruko, being infuriated and out her mind, stormed out the room damaging anything in her way before leaving and going to her pent house.

For the next three days, Naruko stayed in her pent house until Sasuke showed up demanding her to tell him why she hadn't been house. She mentioned Sakura, and Sasuke explained it as a mistake froming drinking and not thinking. Naruko easily forgave him and told him her important news, she was expecting. For the next week, Sasuke wouldn't leave her side. Then something happened at work again causing him to be down, and she caught him with Sakura again. Naruko simply packed her stuff taking his money with her.

Sasuke was furious with her and instantly dropped a divorce paper on her telling her he's starting a family with Sakura. Naruko refused to sign it because she loved Sasuke and wasn't going to let that pink haired bitch ruin her happy ending. For that Sasuke tormented her endlessly putting stress on her which called her to lose her child. Naruko has very unhappy, so Sakura ended up losing her as well thanks to Naruko. Sasuke then hired the best people to get rid of her which she got ride off. Naruko met him at his house and beat the shit out of him for trying to kill her. That just made Sasuke mader, he then hired the best hitman in the world, Kakashi Hatake, to take her out two days ago which failed miserably. For that stunt, Naruko published Sasuke's affair and their divorce to the press. Now she was going gamble his money.

Gambling was not all she was here for either. Naruko had to get rid of a couple of Sasuke's hitmen he hired. She was getting tired of playing hide and seek with people she didn't know, so she snuck in to Sasuke's office to see who he hired and when it was to take place. She even dressed her part to ensure they knew who she was. Naruko looked around instantly spotting the three men Sasuke had hired. She was doing her and Kakashi a favor right now by getting rid of killers.

Time to show them the real lucky woman.

Naruko adjusted the strap of the duffel bag she was carrying on her shoulder. She went to the nearest place where one of the men were loctaed which happen to be the poker table. She sweatdropped immediately. She never played poker before! Naruko stopped and thought about it looking at her options. She definitely wasn't going to sit at the bar all night, she had money to collect! Nor was she going to gamble all her money on a stupid game of pool. So poker table it was. She picked up her pace and went to cash in her money for poker chips. Once she was done with that, she made herself comfortable in the center of the poker table.

"What's a girl like you doing here playing poker" a man with black hair and chocolate brown eyes asked. Naruko recognised him as one of the hitmen.

"Same reason your here" was all Naruko said to the man.

The man chuckled, "You sure you know what you're doing. You might wanna go to another table."

"Of course I know what Im doing. Im going to win, believe it!" Naruko shouted a little loudly bringing attention to her.

Instantly, whispers were heard all over the room. 'It's the mystery woman!' 'No, that's Naruko-san' 'Is that Naruko-san?' 'Naruko-san is the mystery woman?' 'I knew it was her!' 'What did that man just say to Naruko-san?' 'Doesn't he know about her lucky streak?'

Naruko smiled triumphantly as the man eyes went wide with shock. "You're going to regret what you said. Im betting $27 million" Naruko shouted putting her chips in front of her. Everyone gasped and the whispers started again.

'What!?' "She's kidding, right?' 'Is she serious?' '27 million!?' 'She's crazy' 'There's no way she's going to keep all that' 'She's lucky, she got this'

"Alright, let's get this game started!" Naruko shouted excitedly.

"Yes," Naruko threw her hand in the air out of excitement "I won, believe it!" Many people stared at the blonde girl shocked with their mouths hanging open. Naruko had been at the poker table since she stepped foot in the casino. She put every penny on the table and started to play. Most thought the heiress was stupid for putting that much money out, but bit their tongues when she won it all back plus extra. Majority were shocked to find out that mysterious woman was none other than Naruko Uzumaki. People lined up to play against the lucky blonde only to leave with nothing. To say, Naruko didn't even know how to play poker.

Satisfied with the lumpful of chips, Naruko decided it was time to put her plan in action. She grabbed the duffel bag containing about sixty billion dollars and rose from her seat. Some the people groaned ar seeing the blonde leave already.

"See you next time guys" Naruko waved to everybody surrounding her before going to the bar where her next victim was.

"Hey, Naruko" someone called her name. Naruko stopped to see the hitman following her. She waited for him to catch up to her before she started to walk again.

"You're really great at poker" he said

"Thanks!" Naruko beamed at the sudden praise.

"How long?"

Naruko turned to look at the man weird, "Huh?"

"How long have you been playing poker?"

"Oh, I just started today" she said proud of herself.

The man looked at her funny before continuing, "Naruko, I think you're hot and would love for you to stop by my room before you leave."

"Sure! What room is it?"

"501" he answered.

"See you there" Naruko smirked as she headed off her to get her money before finishing her night. Naruko went to cash her chips back in and got her money. She then headed to elevator. The door opened and she got in pressing the second floor. If there was one thing Naruko learned about hitmen, it was they always tried to get you before you can put together pieces and figure out what's happening. Before getting off, she pressed every button to slow the elevator down and not get caught in her plan. Once off, she left the duffel bag on the elevator and rushed to the stairs making her way to the fifth floor.

Naruko stopped at the door that went to the fifth floor. She put her ear to the door to make sure no one was there then slowly opened it to stick her head out. All clear. Naruko shut the door softly behind her preceding to walk down the hall being cautious. She made her way to the end of the hall without spotting a thing. The end of the hall split into two section, one right and the other left. Naruko peaked around the corner to spot two of the three men at the elevator waiting. Where's the one from the poker table?

Naruko thoughts were interrupted when she heard a loud ding. One of the men held up a gun waiting for the door to open. When it did, shots were fired only to stop suddenly.

"She's not on here!" the one with the gun exclaimed.

"Looking for me?" Naruko smirked as she stood in the center of the hallway. The men turned to look at her before firing shots at her. Most of them went into the wall while Naruko dodged the ones that did come her way. That teme must've been really desperate to get rid of me and didn't have many choices left. Naruko started to reach for the top of her jeans when she felt metal pressed hard between her shoulder blades. She froze knowing she got caught. Damn it!

"You thought you could sneak up on us, huh" the man from the poker table said.

"Didn't think, I knew I could" Naruko said grabbing the gun tucked in her jeans and shooting the man directly in the head in thirty seconds flat. The man dropped dead instantly and a puddle of blood formed. The other men started shooting at Naruko again out of anger. Naruko ran to hide. Now they get serious!

Once some of the shooting died down, Naruko fired some of her own bullets hiting the tallest man in the leg causing him to scream out in pain and go down holding his leg. Naruko stayed in her spot for awhile until the man started screaming.

"Where did that bitch go! Im to find her, so I can break her in two!" he yelled out in fustration. Oh shit, this wasn't good.

Naruko heard the injured man force himself up and curse because of his pain. "Bitch, where are you? Come on out. You wasn't hiding when you decided to blow my leg off! Fine, I see you want this done the hard way." Before Naruko could move, shots came from all directions. Naruko ducked and took cover.

"Come on out, bitch so I can kill you!" the man kept yelling.

"Hey, she left the money" the other man yelled causing him stop his riot and see what he was talking about.

"The bitch is good for something" he said.

Naruko came out from her hiding spot to find the injured man leaning against the wall and the other one in the elevator. "What was that you was saying about me being a bitch and killing me" Naruko asked.

"There you go" the man smiled evilly at her. Before he could raise his gun good, Naruko was there in front of him delivering her own blows to the man. She shot him making sure not to hit anything vital. She wanted him to suffer.

Naruko turned around to be face to face with the other man. She didn't jump out of shock, simply glared at him. She noticed he had the duffel bag in his hands. My cue to leave. Naruko turned to leave only to be stopped by a woman screaming.

"Naruto-san just killed that man" the woman screamed in disbelief. Naruko shot the woman in head hiting where she wouldn't die but where she could forget. Naruko continued then started running once she reached the steps. She didn't worry about the man trying to kill her. She took all their weapons.

Naruko ran down the stairs until she reached the first floor. She looked to make sure no one was around. She grabbed a black bag and slipped out the back door. As soon as she made it outside, a loud explosion errupted causing half the building to collapse. She had switched the money into the black bag she was carrying and a bomb into the duffel bag. She knew Sasuke would want his money back too. Too bad though.

The blonde woman ran away from the crime scene into the darkness. She saw her beautiful orange Porsche 911 Carrera 4S parked in the parking lot behind Lucky Kunai. Naruko approached her car to walk into something hard. She fell from the force of the impact.

"Naruko?" someone asked. I walked into a person. Way to go, Naruko. She snapped out her thought when she realized the voice sounded familiar. "Are you alright?"

"Kakashi!" Naruko said picking herself off the ground.

"What's going on?" Kakashi asked tilting his head to Lucky Kunai.

"I'll explain later. Now, come one" Naruko said grabbing Kakashi's hand and pulling him in the passenger seat of her car. Naruko got in throwing the bag of money down and putting the keys in the engine. The car purred to life, and Naruko took off.

The game's just starting.
