Teuchi smiled at his current
patrons. Once again Naruto brought a new pretty face to the stand. He soon
found out that this beautiful lady was his number-one customer's new sensei.
Naruto had told him that while him and his girlfriend where on a training mission
they had stumbled across an old ruin. The problem was that this ruin was all
that was left Miko's family. Miko attacked Naruto for trespassing. During the
fight it seems the energetic blonde impressed the maiden and so she took him
and Haku on as students.
Having preplanned this story
Miko put in her two cents worth here and there. She had seen how the village
looked at Naruto and was glad he had found people like the Ichiraku.
Soon their meal was over and
they started to walk towards Naruto's apartment. On the way there the came
across team ten. Ino being her nosey self grins when she sees the way Haku acts
around Naruto, and decides she needs to find out everything.
After some encouragement from
Naruto, Haku eventual accepted Ino's offer to take her with Ino since she was
meeting up with Hinata and Sakura for a "girls night out". What
surprised all involved was when Miko asked if she could tag along. Ino just
nodded and pulled them both off in the direction of the markets.
Naruto, Shikamaru, and Choji
just looked at each other and smiled. Naruto grinned sheepishly while
scratching the back of his head when he turns to Shikamaru. "Hey Shika, I
was wondering if you would teach me shoji?"
The young Nara was shocked but
didn't show it. Interested in Naruto's seemingly sudden interest in such a
complex game he asked, "Why would you want to learn that? I hardly
imagined you to be the type to sit down lone enough to set up the board let
alone sit through a hole game." seeing Naruto's sad look he decided to
take a chance. "Well since I was just going to watch clouds this afternoon
I guess I can teach you how to play. Choji take him to the spot while I go get
my board."
Choji smiled as he showed
Naruto to their favorite cloud watching spot. "Hey Naruto, where did you
meet Haku. She seems really nice."
Naruto smiled. "We met in
wave country, and yes she is. I'm lucky to have her as my girlfriend. She sees
me for who I am. I love her with all my heart. She has to be the most caring
person I have ever met. She helped me thru a dark time."
Choji smiled. He wasn't
ignorant to the stares of the villagers and the names they called him behind
his back. He asked his father once why everyone was so mean to the older boy.
All he got was his fathers cryptic warning, "He's punished for a burden
he didn't choose to carry. Just be careful around him Choji. A person can only
take so much hate until they ether breakdown or they lash out." After
Shika got the same response from his father they both wondered about the blonde
boy. They were the closest things he had to friends as far as they knew. He
would get their help on a prank or sneak out of class with them and Kiba, but
always stayed distant. He was happy Naruto found someone to ease his
loneliness.
Haku was nervous. She had
never 'hung out' with other girls before. Before she was with Naruto her life
was training as Zabuza's weapon. Now she found herself sitting in a restaurant
waiting for the rest of the girls to show up. Looking over she saw Miko looking
at the dessert menu with her face scrunched in a thoughtful way.
Ino smiled at Haku. "So,
how did you and Naruto happen?"
Haku looked over to Ino and
blushed at the memory of their first encounter. After collecting her thoughts
she smiled. "Naruto saved my life. He also showed me a kindness that I had
never known. He accepted me for who I am. He's generous, loving, and
thoughtful. He's everything I could dream of having."
As Ino watched the girl across
from her as she described what had to be the perfect man, but what confused her
was that she was talking about Naruto. 'There is no way the boneheaded idiot
I know as Naruto and the person she's describing are the same. I mean Naruto's
brash, loud, annoying, and most of all a clueless idiot. I couldn't be that
wrong could I?'
Ino waved when Sakura and
Hinata arrived together with Kurenai in tow. After a round of introductions
they were all seated, and started to talk as they looked over the menu.
"So, Haku your a leaf
ninja now?" Sakura was surprised when she noticed the Leaf symbol on a
metal plate fastened to her black choker.
Haku nodded politely. She
could see Sakura was still mad about the bridge incident. "Sakura, I hope
you can forgive me for I did to you. I did it because I had to protect
Zabuza-sama. I had no intention to kill either you or your other
teammate." This conversation instantly peaked everyone's attention.
Sakura just scoffed. "Why
you would protect a bastard like him anyway?"
Haku restrained herself and
growled out, "He took me in when no one else would. For that the least I
could do was fight for him. You can't tell me you expect every mission to be
for some noble purpose. Ninja's are hired to kill the innocent, protect crime
lords, and steal for the greedy every day. You're lucky to have a village that
has a semblance of moral standards." The speech had a profound affect on
the younger girls. They each thought what it would be like to be sent on such a
mission.
"It is true that as ninja
we have to do some distasteful things. I can only image what you've had to do
to survive, but you're a Leaf-nin now and the past is in the past, right
Sakura?" Kurenai was trying her best to defuse the situation. It wouldn't
be fun to explain to the ANBU why a fight broke out in the middle of the
restaurant.
Sakura grumbled out a
"fine" and after the waiter came and took their orders he brought
there drinks and left. Ino wanted some more details about Haku and Naruto's
relationship. "So Haku, is Naruto a good kisser?"
This question did two things.
First the Hyuga heir nearly choked on her drink, while Haku blushed. After
calming her blush a little she smiled. "He's the only person I've ever
kissed, but when he presses his lips to mine my heart skips a beat and I can
feel the love he has for me. It's like being lost in a sea of passion, and you
never want to be found." Looking at the faces of her piers she ducked her
head to hide her rising blush.
Hinata was saddened, happy,
and angry at the same time. She was saddened the her long time crush had found
love with someone other then her, but glad that he was happy because his
happiness meant allot to her. She was mostly angry thou. She was angry with
herself. It was her weakness that held her back. It could be her talking about
Naruto's loving embrace but she couldn't bring herself to confront the boy.
Ino being the great gossip
queen she is wanted more. "If he's that good of a kisser he must be good
in the sack." Seeing Haku turn a red that Hinata would be hard pressed to
match she grinned. "Oh my god! You have done IT! How was he? How big is
he? Did it really hurt allot?"
As Ino rapid fired questions
at the crimson youth Miko decided that now was the perfect time for payback.
"Well from their moans and groans from the room next to mine I'd say he's
very skilled. His stamina is quite impressive to be able to train for the hole
day after the two hour warm up Haku here put him thru." Miko laughed as
Haku looked about ready to pop from the blood rushing to her face.
Haku was chanting for her
death in her mind to escape this embarrassing situation. 'Please God kill me
now!'
The younger girls looked at
Haku with surprise, while Kurenai looked at her with something close to envy.
Too many times she has been left wanting by her male partners. So much so that
she gave up on them all together after one drunken night with Anko that lead to
the most mind-blowing sex she has ever had. She was shaken from her thoughts
when the girls started to talk again.
Ino was the first to recover
from Miko's little speech. With a lecherous grin she focused her eyes on Haku.
"So are you going to hold out on us? We want details!"
After much coaxing from the
Ino Haku resigned herself to her fate. "It hurt at first but he was real
gentle and it soon felt so good. As for his size he's big enough for me."
Finding her drink very interesting she dared not look them in the face.
Ino grinned even more.
"So just how much is enough for you?"
Bowing her head in defeat she
held her hands about seven and a half inches apart.
Out of the all the girls Miko was
the only one not surprised at the size. 'He's average for a demon his age,
and still has some time left for growth. If he wasn't totally devoted to Haku I
just might of given him a ride.'
After they finished their
meals they paid and Sakura left mentioning something about training while the
rest of the group walked down the market street. It then came to Ino's
attention that Haku didn't have a proper wardrobe. After Ino mentioned
something about how Haku would look nice in the jeans a manikin was wearing
Haku admitted to only having her combat kimono and the pink one she was
currently wearing. She soon found herself being dragged into the store and
having various articles of clothing thrust into her arms.
After an hour of collecting
she was brought to the changing rooms. She instantly became nervous. No one
besides Naruto and Zabuza ever knew of her secret. Naruto may have accepted her
and Zabuza didn't care but how would her new sensei and the others react? She
quickly grabbed an outfit Ino said would look great on her and locked herself
in the changing booth.
Taking off her Kimono and
hanging it up she grimaced. 'I'll just have to hope they don't see it.'
She pulled on the tight jeans. 'Oh God. If your up their please get me thru
this.' Getting a quick light of inspiration she adapted the illusion
covering her fox features to also hide her not so feminine parts.
Stepping out of the booth she
looked into the mirror. She was wearing tight bell-bottom jeans with a simple
white spaghetti strap top that showed off her toned midriff and shoulders. The
girls all gave her two thumbs up and Ino handed her a new outfit. This one
consisted of a pair of white short shorts and a matching tank top.
After trying on a couple more
pants and shorts with various tops she was handed a skimpy ice blue bikini.
After changing she crossed her fingers and stepped out. No one seemed to notice
anything so she let out a breathe of relief. After trying out some dresses in
which she found a classic 'Little Black Dress' that she loved with matching
black lace lingerie she had changed back into her pink kimono. As the other
girls were collecting everything that was agreed that she looked good in Miko
took her aside.
"I can tell you that you
fooled them with that illusion but your still not good enough to fool me."
Haku froze as the older Kitsune whispered into her ear. Seeing the poor girl
stiffen she smiled. "Don't worry, I won't tell them. But we will talk
later." Haku just nodded meekly.
After all was said and done
Miko stepped up and paid for the cloths. She just pointed out that it wouldn't
do to have a student ill prepared. The truth was that Miko was starting to see
Haku and Naruto as younger siblings, but she'd be damned if she was going to
tell anyone else that.
Each helping to carry some of
the bags they came across a shinobi supply store. Miko remembered the piss poor
equipment Naruto was forced to train with, so she decided to get both her
students some new equipment. This of course got Ino to convince Haku she needed
new shinobi attire for missions. It wouldn't do if hunter-nins from mist
recognized her because of her cloths, really Ino just loved playing dress up.
Eventually they had narrowed
it down to two choices. There was Ino's suggestion of black ninja cargo pants with
a black open jacket with a white tube top over a mesh shirt. Then there was
Miko and Kurenai's choice of a light blue knee length dress with wide slits cut
up to the curve of the hips to help movement. The top had a wide neckline and
separated sleeves that were held up by a cord laced thru both the dresses
shoulder and the sleeve. The dress also had a dark blue obi that could be used
to hide her senbon pouches and other equipment. Under this was a mesh bodysuit
that went from her wrists to just above the knee.
After much debate she chose
the outfit that the older women had picked out. She decided this because she
found it was much easier to move in. When they got to the counter they found
Miko had ordered a katana; two sets of kunai, shuriken, and senbon; a metal
bracer, and some blank scrolls. Again Miko paid for all the supplies.
Ino nudged Haku. "I wish
I had a sensei like yours." Haku just blushed while Ino cracked up
laughing.
Miko walked up beside them and
smiled evilly. "Oh, she's going to pay thru her training, believe
me." A shiver went down the younger girls backs. Two were out of pity for
their new friend and one was of fear for ones life.
After another hour of walking
they decided to call it a night. Kurenai invited Miko to a junin get together
that was set for the next night and after a little nudge from Haku she
accepted. They were heading to Naruto's apartment when Miko looked over to
Haku. "Why did you want me to go with Kurenai tomorrow night?" she
grinned and poked her student in the ribs. "You want the place to just you
and Naruto don't you?"
Haku blushed but calmed it
quickly. "I just thought I'd be nice if you had some friends." They
had reached the apartment and Haku let them in.
Miko smiled sadly. "Haku,
thank you, but I don't know. I have had many friends among the humans. It hurts
to see them grow old and die. It's a sadness that hits you hard, realizing that
your friends won't always be there." She lowered her head in memory of the
deceased.
Haku felt that this wasn't the
whole reason behind her sensei's seclusion. "There's more to this isn't
there? I remember you mentioning that humans helped the Orochi attack. Is that
why you don't trust them?"
Miko slumped onto the couch.
"A group of trusted humans let the enemy into our clan's sole refuge. The
Den was considered impenetrable, so when we were attacked it was devastating.
Then I saw something I will never forget. My best friend led the charge against
us. We fought and I eventually won but before he died I asked him why. Do you
know what he said?"
Miko looked over to Haku with
tears running down her face. "He said he did it for power. The enemy had
offered him immortality and ruler ship over his homeland. I've never trusted a
human since. I isolated myself in snow country. My brother tried to help but I
just sent him away. We were all that were left and I had given up."
Haku sat down and hugged her
sensei. She knew the pain of betrayal. It had hurt when her father turned on
her and her mother. "You loved him didn't you?" She felt her nod.
"It is unbearable when a loved one turns on you. My father turned on my
mother and me. I saw him kill her right in front of me. When he turned to me I
saw that he was going to kill me too. I acted on instinct and used the
bloodline he feared to kill him."
Haku decided to tell Miko the
whole story. "I fled my home and lived on the streets until my previous
sensei found me and trained me to be his weapon. He took me in when no one else
would. You see in mist bloodlines are feared and hated, not only that but I was
born different then anyone else."
Miko started to put things
together. "Does your birth have something to do with that illusion
earlier?"
Haku bowed her head. "I,
I was born as both genders. I've tried my hardest to hide it over the years."
Miko saw the shameful
expression on her students face. She pulled the younger woman into a tight hug.
"It's nothing to be ashamed of. I don't think any less of you because of
this. Now why don't you continue? I'm very interested on how you and Naruto
met."
Since she intrigued Miko so
much Haku just plowed onward. It felt like a weight was lifted telling her
sensei this. "When Zabuza found out I was afraid he would leave me. He had
given me a purpose in life. When he told me it didn't matter what I was as long
as I was willing to be his weapon, I was so happy that he accepted me I was
willing to do anything for him. I even let go of all my emotions to better
serve him."
"It wasn't until I met
Naruto that I let myself feel any emotion again. He had gone thru a similar
pain. This village has hated him for what Kyuubi did. When I found him he was a
broken spirit trying to die. When he told me his story I felt a connection,
when I told him of my past and my secret he accepted me and that connection turned
to love, but we were on opposing sides. Neither of us could back down. I didn't
want to let Zabuza die and Naruto couldn't let the people of wave become slaves
to my employer. We both knew one of us was going to die so we decided to love
each other if only for a day."
Haku smiled at the memory of
her first time, but soon became mournful. "The next day me and Zabuza
attacked. I was able to take out Naruto's ex-teammates easily by using senbon
to put them into a death like state. That's one reason Sakura doesn't like me,
and neither does his other ex-teammate Sasuke. When Naruto confronted me I saw
his sensei move in to kill Zabuza. Moving thru my ice mirrors I took the hit. I
didn't want to force Naruto to kill me. I knew I couldn't win against him, so I
did what I was meant to do and protected my master. I took the attack to my
heart knowing that it would be the end."
Miko couldn't believe how
cruel life has been to these two while Haku continued with her story.
"That is when Naruto made his deal with Kyuubi. I woke up a week later to
find that Zabuza had died fighting Gatou, and he had made Naruto promise to
always protect and care for me. I had lost my mentor but found love. It was
then I decided I would always be at Naruto's side no matter what."
Miko smiled. "I'm glad
you found each other. You both deserve each other's love and devotion. I'm glad
my brother took you both into the clan. Maybe I'll find someone again but for
now I'll give making friends a shot."
"That's good. Kurenai
seems like a nice person. And Ino and Hinata were fun to hang out with."
Haku said with a smile.
Miko nodded. "Yes, but
I'm slightly worried. I know the Yuhi clan's Bloodline. It could be
trouble."
Haku looked confused.
"What is their bloodline?"
Miko sighed. "It lets them
see thru most illusion and empowers the ones they use."
Haku turned white. "Do
you think she saw it?"
Miko thought on that. "I
don't think she saw thru it enough to see our fox features but your covering of
your true nature might have been noticed. I understand it's not something you
would want known, so I'll talk to her about it. You're still my new little
sister. I have to look out for my family."
Haku latched onto her new
'sister'. "Thank you! You don't know how much I worry people will hate me
if they find out."
After their heart to heart
Haku started to put away her new cloths when a messenger bird knocked at the
window. Letting it in Haku took the message and read it. It was a summons to
the Hokage's office for all three of them. "Miko, we need to find Naruto
and meet with the Hokage."
Miko looked over to Haku.
"Well, looks like we get to look for him. He should be easy enough to
find. Did it say why he wants us?"
"No, just that he wants
to see us as soon as possible." Came Haku's reply.
Naruto was frustrated. He had
quickly learned how the pieces moved and found out that some semblance of a
strategy was needed, but Shikamaru was relentless. No matter how much Naruto
tried he couldn't beat him. Shika would always see thru any ploy and counter it
with merciless precision. He had lost seven straight games and this one was
shaping up to be the same as the last. Naruto had more pieces but Shika had
better position.
Shikamaru was impressed. After
giving Naruto a crash course in the movement of the pieces he was surprised by
the strategies Naruto would employ. The skill Naruto was showing was that of at
least a moderate player. It also surprised him that Naruto was thinking at
least five to ten moves ahead. Of course Shika tended to think twenty to twenty
five moves ahead but again Naruto would surprise him with a move he should not
of seen. He even now was catching Shika off guard. Naruto just made a move that
would force a stalemate.
Shika looked at Naruto with a
questioning expression. "Why did you do that Naruto?"
Naruto smiled. "I may not
win but neither will you. I figure if I'm going down I'll take you with
me."
Choji was beside himself.
Nobody in their age group or even their seniors at the academy could beat
Shika. Even Asuma-sensei was hard put to beat the young Nara. Matter of fact
the only person that consistently beat him was his father.
Shika smiled. "That was a
good game Naruto. Given some time you'll become a great shoji player."
"Thanks for teaching
me." They started to set up another game when Miko and Haku walked up to
them.
Haku bent down and kissed
Naruto's forehead. "There you are, the Hokage wants us in his office as
soon as possible."
Naruto got up. "Well I
guess the next match will have to wait Shika. See you around Choji." And
with a wave they were off.
Shika fell back and stared at
the clouds. "Hey Choji, what do you think of Naruto's new attitude?"
Choji thought for a minute.
"He's still him just not the idiot he made us think he was. I wonder why
he would push us away like that in the academy? Do you think it has something
to do with the burden our dad's said he had? He always was a nice person at
heart. It doesn't seem right the way he's treated."
Shika smiled. Allot of people
didn't give Choji credit for his observation skills. They thought he was just
munching away on his chips completely oblivious, but Choji was very observant
and a good judge of character. If Choji thought someone was a good person he
was usually right. "It'll be troublesome, but I think Naruto would make a
good friend, if he'll let us."
The Hokage smiled when the
trio entered his office. Seeing his smile all three let out a breath of relief.
"I'm glad you came so quickly. You see, I've found a place for you to
live."
Naruto jumped. "That's
great old man!" Haku and Miko were curious about the new place. Both of
them were thankful of Naruto's generosity but three people in a two-room
apartment is a bit too much.
"It's kind of a
fixer-upper, but it should suit your needs when it's finished." He had looked
long and hard for the perfect place for Naruto. He would of given him the
Kazama Estates but he would have to reveal Naruto's heritage for that and the
council would appose it to the end. "So, if you'll come with me I'll show
you to your new home."
The trio was quick to follow
the aged Hokage as he led them towards the clan sector of Konoha. After walking
past some of the grand homes of the more prominent clans they came to a stop
near the Nara clan compound. The Hokage showed them a path that when into the
woods. When they came to the house they were all surprised. The first surprise
was the fact that it was a moderate two story building in a clearing surrounded
by what was now the Nara family forest. Second it looked as if the place had
been abandoned years ago. But what floored Naruto was the spiral mark on the
double doors.
The Hokage turned to them.
"Welcome to the Uzumaki Compound. It's kind of in need of repair. No one
has been here for the past eight years. Uchiha Mikoto came here to clean and
tend the small garden until she died. It became property of Konoha after that
and no one has wanted it, so I have given it to Miko."
Miko looked at the old man
like he grew another head. "You're just giving me this place."
"Well the counsel would
never approve of Naruto buying property in Konoha so I wrote out this contract.
It basically says that you get the property as long as you use it to house at
least two Konoha Ninja. I just so happen to know two ninja that just so happen
to be looking for a new place!" The old Hokage grinned at his own
craftiness.
"Nice job old man."
Naruto walked up to the doors and turned the knob to have a look inside. The
paint was faded, but all the furniture was covered.
Miko smiled. "A little
hard work and it will shine. Trust me."
"It has six bedrooms, two
of which have their own bathroom. You see the Uzumaki clan was never a big
clan. They never had more then ten members at any one time, but they were some
of the most dedicated people. Well I need to get back to my office."
Sarutobi smiled and walked off.
"You know it'll take a
day or two before it's livable right?" Naruto looked around the inside.
"We can share your
apartment till then." Haku was looking around the grounds.
"You know Naruto. It'd
only take tonight if you left some bunshin here to clean up." Miko looked
at the door.
"Yeah, it looks like it
was taken decent care of before it was abandoned." Naruto called from
somewhere inside. "All we need to do is clean everything, repaint, and fix
some of this furniture. I'll leave a group to clean tonight."
As Naruto left he conjured one
hundred clones. "Guys, I need you to clean the place and get it ready for
paint by tomorrow." All the clones just nodded and got to work. "We
should get back. We have training with Anko-sensei tomorrow."
AN
Hey
guys! Sorry it took a while for this one. I've had it done for a couple of days
now but I lost my Internet for a while. I tried to get into the personalities
of different people on this one and found an undeniable truth. Hinata is hard
to write. If it seemed she was too quiet then it's because I find her hard to
use. Well good news Next chapter you'll meet their new teammate, and Anko has
fun with fresh meat! Next chap should be out in a day or two. Until next time
Thank You for reading!
