Yep another chapter for this fic. Reason for it being the random surge of inspiration that I had suddenly gained. Well, enjoy I guess.

1: Is the new OC Otsutsuki going to be the pairing?

A: For the pre-shippuden arc that is a definite no, she is currently Naruto's "arch-nemesis" as a way for Naruto to have some other sort of reason in getting stronger.

2: Will this be harem?

A: I have no clue, I definitely have given up on who I would pair with Naruto and just decided to see where my writing takes me, it works since I really don't plan what happens after all.

3: Is this god-like Naruto?

A: Nope. If you look at it in perspective, shinobi the likes of Minato, Itachi and many other shinobi should be considered "God-like" since they are basically undefeatable in battle against most other shinobi. I mean in all seriousness, wouldn't A from kumo be considered god-like for his speed? Which takes Minato Namikaze using the hiraishin to escape from? Then there is Itachi who is a fucking god-like ninja who is a prodigy in everything. So, until I start having my Naruto suddenly learn everything in a matter of seconds, I wouldn't consider him god-like. Strong, yes. Intelligent, yes. Mature? 50/50.

4: What does Naruto's healing factor/ regeneration entitle exactly?

A: Basically, all Naruto's healing/regeneration does is what everybody does. It identifies the problem, fixes the problem, and also STRENGTHENS the problem area. An example would be for instants if Naruto were to have his back stabbed by a kunai, then his body would be a bit stronger where the kunai struck. That is what his trait does, however, unlike most. This healing rule is for everything that is a part of Naruto, including his own healing factor.

5: Shouldn't have Kagumi killed Naruto easy?

A: And why could have Kagumi killed Naruto easy? Don't forget right now Naruto is only a genin, above average genin, but still a genin. And even then, Kagumi is also still a rookie who I had dampened to a very high degree, or did no one other than myself notice the small hints of "I should have mastered the other "paths"" I mean, does that not seriously tell you that Kagumi is like a beginner rinnegan user with only a limited amount of skills? I even made her Chibaku Tensei a lot smaller than a regular sized one which could make a tiny moon.

6: Why have Kagumi as Naruto's arch enemy?

A: Why not? By having Kagumi, a user of the rinnegan, battle Naruto at random points within the story it would allow Naruto to learn more about its abilities and how to battle against a rinnegan user to the highest possible level. Or do you all really want me to pull out a "revived madara Uchiha who has a rinnegan" Very early or something? I mean, using the fact that Naruto doesn't have a bijuu within him, he won't be targeted by the Akatsuki, which means both Obito and Nagato, who were the main rinnegan users before both madara and kaguya. Besides, during pre-shippuden I plan to have Kagumi only appear a few times at most.

7: Will Naruto get the rinnegan or anything else?

A: Nope. All he has is his wits, skills, and healing factor/regeneration ability.

8: Will I have a flashback for what happened between the mission and where I left off with the jonin card?

A: No. Basically, I have decided to make my story in something similar to "arc's". What you saw for the first 5 chapters was basically the build up with the 6th starting the new arc. Don't worry though as I will actually make the arc's longer. However, I will randomly end or start an arc depending on how I want my Naruto to grow in the brief gaps in time.

"You're squad had run into a group of rogue Nin?"

"Hai hokage-sama."

"Were you able to identify who exactly the ninja's were?"

"Sorry hokage-sama. It was a quick attack, one I couldn't believe I survived… It was all pure luck…"

"…. Very well… Naruto, you are dismissed."

"Thank you hokage-sama…"

Narrowing his eyes, Naruto replayed the conversation throughout his head. He didn't know exactly how or why he said that his squad had been attacked by a group of rogue ninja's, hell, he knew for a fact that it wasn't the typical rogue ninja's that had attacked, but someone that wasn't human… It had to have been impossible to have skills like the teenage girl, Kagumi Otsutsuki, had displayed in their battle a few days ago.

It seemed that Kagumi had done something to him however as even his own attempts at either sign language, writing or even vocalising what actually happened failed him. It was like he couldn't even mutter a word regarding the name or being "Kagumi Otsutsuki." Even the Yamanaka that did his mental evaluation reported seeing a group of rogue nin's attacking his squad.

And to be honest… That frightened him a bit… He had information that the hokage had to hear…

And he couldn't give the information…

Gnashing his teeth slightly, Naruto could only look in front of him with a ticked off expression. His normally calm cool expression being overwhelmed with the knowledge of a threat, who while wasn't that far above his own abilities, had a set of skills that would be most… Troublesome…

Looking down towards his right hand, Naruto felt the odd sensation of cool water pouring down his spine as he moved his hand towards the brown coloured door in front of him.

Releasing a small relaxed sigh, which also caused his expression to revert into a look of dread, Naruto moved his closed fist forward and with a small bit of strength, knocked on the door.

Thud… Thud… Thud…

…

…..

….

Releasing a small sigh of relief, Naruto moved his hand into his pocket before pulling out his apartment key.

Placing it inside the small lock and twisting. Naruto heard the sound of the lock snapping open before allowing him entry.

And just as he opened the door… He came upon the sight of something he wouldn't have expected of.

Standing just in front of the door was a somewhat tall teenage girl with long black, slightly spiky at the tips, hair that fell just towards her upper back, her two chin length bangs passing by her coal coloured eyes and stretching all their way to her chin, easily going past the small grinning visage of the girl as she continued to stare at him.

Now, what shocked Naruto wasn't the fact there was a girl standing before him… But the fact that there was a girl standing before him completely naked with her gravity defying low C-cup breasts aiming straight at him.

Widening his eyes, Naruto only had one thought going through his head.

"Oh sh-"

"Naru!" Screamed the girl happily as she jumped the black haired, red eyed shinobi. Propelling the two into the apartment hallway where Naruto quickly began to snap his head side to side.

Wrapping his arms around the girls waist, Naruto quickly dashed into the apartment and shut the door, locking it the process before shutting his eyes as he felt the girl in his arms latch onto him by the neck and waist.

"Naru! I haven't seen you for sooooo looonnnnggg! Why have you been avoiding me!?" Cried the girl and she rubbed her now tear ridden face against Naruto's bland looking and irritated face.

"Dammit Satsuki! I know were childhood orphanage friends and all but cmon! Ever since you got some training from crazy snake lady you've been like this! I mean, who flashes their friends or anyone who opens the door huh?" Asked Naruto in a childish tone, mentally enjoying the way Satsuki's breasts pushed up against him.

Hey, he's a male teen. Leave him alone dammit!

However, it seemed that his little ramble had gotten himself into more trouble as Satsuki started to choke him with her hug.

"Naru! I only do this to you! And don't call Anko-sensei crazy snake lady! She's the best teacher ever!" Replied Satsuki, her tone indicating that she was very passionate about her view of her sensei.

Naruto destroyed the urge to laugh as with every encounter with the woman he had, even before she apprenticed his friend, did she attempt to kill him or rape him. There was just no reason for it, she just did.

Suddenly, Naruto felt his face being pressed against Satsuki's as she gently began to rub her face with his.

"… Why did you avoid me Naruto… Did you know how hurt I was waiting for you to come home… Sure I get a few letters from hokage-sama that holds all of the money you wished to save for the apartment rent and all… But you're never here and you promised to be with me when we were kids… Remember "Don't worry Satsuki-chan! Me and you will just rent an apartment together and become the best ninja's of the universe!"… So why have you being avoiding me since you graduated… Why Naruto…" Mumbled Satsuki in a soft tone, causing the black haired genin in her grip to lower his head slightly in shame.

He knew of his promise to his first, and most likely his only, friend when they were kids, but after she had been taken under the wing of Anko Mitarashi he started to feel uncomfortable about her… Training… As she would then usually use him as test practice, and to that of regular genin who hadn't even graduated, it was a very scary experience.

Although, he had to thank Anko for firmly stating that Satsuki wouldn't be learning any snake jutsu's as she didn't want Satsuki to have any similar connection to that of Orochimaru, something Naruto thought was for the better.

Hey, he didn't want to have to wake up to a snake staring at him… He had Satsuki doing that before she got taken as an apprentice dammit!

But… He did kinda forget about Satsuki after he began his genin career with Yamato training him as an apprentice and since he was either staying at training field 6 or the hospital from injuries… He never really needed to actually come back to his and Satsuki's apartment…

… Which he used as an excuse to gain more missions…

Mentally shaking off his thought, Naruto then began to return the face rubbing with Satsuki, something that the two of them had done as they were children within their orphanage, which was considered "weird" by the other kids back then, but to the two, it showed their friendship… In some sort of twisted way.

"I'm sorry Satsuki… I promise to spend more time here… No promises that I will not study anything while I'm at home though. Fair deal?" Asked Naruto softly, getting a small grin from Satsuki, who had removed her face from Naruto's own.

"Fair enough… Can you make dinner?" Asked Satsuki with a small twinkle within her coal black eyes, causing Naruto to simply stare into her eyes with his own.

"You haven't changed in the odd few months I haven't been here you know." Replied Naruto, gaining a small squeal from the girl as she stood up in a hurry, causing her breasts to bounce as she stretched.

Naruto will deny being a pervert to his very days… But the sight was something he would never forget and cherish… In his own time of course…

Giving a small grin, Naruto pushed himself off the ground before walking past the still happily stretching near the front of the doorway.

Shaking his head at her antics, probably gained from Anko, Naruto moved towards the kitchen with a small grin, seeing as how it was now covered in dirty dishes, some moss and even what appeared to be filled to the brim bin bags that were still sitting beside the bin box…

Now he felt even worse as he remembered that Satsuki was never any good at doing these kinds of things…

Oh shit… There was a lot more things she could have screwed up on…

Naruto clenched his fist in irritation as he now felt as if he should have never walked back to the apartment at all, it would have saved him from the trap his friend had placed him in… Oh dam the guilt.

Raising his hands up, Naruto summoned ten kage bunshin, all at the ready as they knew of the situation.

Pointing towards the clones, left to right, Naruto began his orders.

"Clone one, dishes. Clone two, bin. Clone three, mould. Clone four, go get fresh food. God knows that Satsuki probably had only fast food for the past two or three months. Clone five, check if anything needs to be replaced or repaired. Clone six, check and clean the toilet. Clone seven, laundry. Clone eight, nine and ten. General cleaning. Make this place nice and tidy." Spoke Naruto, gaining an affirmative nod from his clones as they dashed towards their individual jobs.

And since they weren't using any chakra in any shape or form… They would probably last the duration Naruto needed to have the apartment cleaned and fixed...

Hopefully…

Releasing a small sigh, Naruto turned his attention towards the front door, only to notice that Satsuki had disappeared.

Raising a hand to his head, Naruto moved throughout the apartment towards the only bedroom within the house.

Hearing a small shuffling from within, Naruto gave the door a small knock, causing a large "thump" to be heard, which was then soon followed by a loud groan.

Giving a small chuckle, Naruto opened the door with a small smile, completely expecting the room to be a mess.

However, he was shocked to find that the room was incredibly neat and tidy, with Satsuki now sitting on the floor with a small lump forming on her head.

Releasing another chuckle, Naruto walked towards his friend before taking a look at the bump.

Absently noticing the grey coloured sweatpants and loose violet coloured singlet that Satsuki had slipped herself into, Naruto gave his friend an internal nod before raising his head up in a small sigh.

Seeing as how he doubted Satsuki had any ice, the only place that was in fact clean and neat was the bedroom surprisingly, so, using his control of water nature chakra, which was the most basic form, Naruto moved his right hand up towards the bump and gently place it down, making sure to limit the amount of pain that simply gesture would present.

Once his hand was on Satsuki's head, Naruto began to chakra his chakra nature into water, causing his hand to become slightly encased within a small amount of cool blue water like essence.

It wasn't long for the bruise to begin to lose its shape and form before disappearing completely from his friend's head, much to her happiness as she gave Naruto a massive grin.

"Thank you Naruto." Spoke Satsuki, giving the black haired teen a small wink before rushing off towards the living room, causing the black haired teen to release a small sigh of misery as he slowly began to walk out of the room, absentmindedly noticing that Satsuki had barely changed anything since he had been here last, which had been well over a few months.

Giving the room a quick once over, Naruto left. Making sure to shut the door on his way out. The sound of the door clicking into place alerted Naruto that the door had been closed behind him.

Walking back into the dinner room, Naruto came upon the sight of Satsuki simply staring at him with a large smile, something that made Naruto slightly un-easy due to how unnatural it had appeared as.

His worries soon disappeared however as he spotted a bowl of ramen sitting behind her.

Giving a small twitch from his right eye, Naruto turned to his left where he saw one of his clones, who he remembered to send out for food, before releasing a small sigh.

"Just please tell me that you got actual food along with the ramen? Last time I almost starved to death in the forest remember?" Asked Naruto, gaining a small embarrassed chuckle from his clone as he disappeared in a pool of smoke, giving Naruto all of his memories.

Releasing a small sigh of relief, since his clone actual completed his task, Naruto turned his attention back to his friend, only to widen his eyes slightly at the now empty bowl of ramen sitting in front of her at the dinner table.

Dropping a small chuckle, Naruto walked up to his childhood friend before rubbing her head once more in an affectionate way.

Just hanging out with his friend brought back a few memories of his time with her, although he never actually "forgot" her, he didn't actually notice the lack of joy he had gotten from being around her as he was training.

And because of that, he never really felt all that happy hanging out with his friend, especially after she had gotten training from Anko Mitarashi as an apprentice a month before genin graduation.

Relishing the warmth that had appeared within his chest, Naruto couldn't help but forget about his supposed "recovery" period that the hospital had placed on him which had basically stopped him from attempting any missions for a few days.

Removing his hand from Satsuki's head, Naruto moved his way to the couch before plopping himself down, his head laying down on the couches deep brown headrest as he looked up towards the cream coloured celling.

"I think I forgot how comfortable this couch was when I actually came home from going out before being a genin…" Muttered Naruto in a hushed tone, only getting a small giggle from the dinner table.

"Of course you would remember the couch! We used to play "mommy and daddy" when we first got the apartment… I remember I would always send you to the couch if you were being a meanie." Replied Satsuki as she moved herself to the couch before hopping onto Naruto's un-protected form, much to his brief wince of pain as Satsuki landed her elbow onto his stomach.

Looking towards Satsuki with a grin, Naruto moved his head up to her ear before blowing some wind into it. Causing the black haired girl on him to jump slightly, allowing him to roll of the couch and avoid being trapped beneath her.

Pushing himself off the couch, Naruto gave the now face planting Satsuki a small grin before standing up and slightly leaning on the small coffee table that was in front of the couch.

Scratching his head slightly with his right hand, Naruto realised one crucial fact about his current predicament.

"Hey Satsuki… I just realised this but… What happened to my single sized bed that was tucked into the corner of the bedroom?" Asked Naruto, a vivid image of his and Satsuki's old bedroom popped into his head for a moment, indicating a missing single sized bed that he had been sleeping on over the course of the years.

"….."

Turning his head slightly towards Satsuki, Naruto couldn't help but release a small deadpan stare as he came upon the sight of a puppy eyed Satsuki.

Seeing the puppy eyed look, Naruto simply stared towards Satsuki.

"You jumped on it and it broke right?" Asked Naruto in a deadpan tone getting a small nod from the puppy eyed Satsuki.

Shaking his head, Naruto released a small sigh once more.

"So I guess I'm sleeping on the couch until I buy a new bed… Oh well… Do you have an-"

"Nope!" Spoke Satsuki, cutting off Naruto from his previous outspoken thoughts.

Raising an eyebrow, Naruto seemed curious as to what Satsuki's plan was… Until he widened his eyes in fear.

"S-Satsuki! I-i-im sorry for not coming back home for a few months but that doesn't mean you should have me sleep on the floor! Please! I'll do anything for the couch!" Begged Naruto, his normally cool calm façade smashing into bits as his mind went over towards the hospitals "other" condition.

"Naruto is not allowed to be spotted in any training ground otherwise we will have to hold him in the hospital until his… Recovery period is over. Should he be found in any training ground, let both the hokage and us know."

Naruto had no clue who the doctor was speaking to, since he was in fact listening on in the conversation through the door.

Funny thing that the doctors never told him that bit of knowledge when they released him…

They were just trying to set him up… The teme's…

However, before Naruto could continue in his line of thought, a sudden hand clamping onto his cheek alerted him to the sudden shift of movement revolving around him being dragged by his friend in a near effortless fashion, something that surprised Naruto quite a bit.

Suddenly, Naruto felt himself being flung into the air for a moment before landing on something soft. Turning his head slightly, Naruto came to the sight of a grey coloured blanket and pillow.

It wasn't a moment later did Naruto suddenly feel what was likely to be Satsuki's bed caving inwards slightly towards the centre of the bed, causing him to turn his attention towards the source, which was of course simply Satsuki sitting in the middle of the bed with a massive grin on her face.

"Nope! You're sleeping with me like when we were kids! You got that Naruto!" Exclaimed Satsuki with a megawatt smile, causing the red eyed teen to blush slightly at the mention of them being kids and sleeping.

After all, he did used to sleep with Satsuki as a kid… And there was a lot of cuddling involved…

Yeah, he still remembered all of that.

Looking up towards the cream coloured celling once more, Naruto could only make out a single prayer.

"Kami… I don't know whether to hate or love you…"

And that is it. Hope you enjoyed the chapter and don't worry this sorta thing isn't going to happen every chapter as I want to establish Naruto's own character a bit more with some backstory. Anyway, thanks for reading I guess.
