Konoha, Graduation day
Before Naru saw, the graduation day came. Naru was quite happy because she will no longer need to listen to Iruka explanation about being or his boring lectures, which not once brought her to sleep. Of course she got caught and punished, but it didn't change a thing.
Her relationship with Sakuya improved slightly. Sakuya stopped acting like she was always sorry for escaping back in the past and start acting like she should, leave that in the pass, but she sometimes act like this still was something important, to her at least. Naru completely forget Sakuya and tried to leave this in the pass, but Sakuya sometimes remind Naru of that, which cause Naru to throw Sakuya into the gap and leave her there for few hours. When she is back, Sakuya clothes are dirty and ragged, and she is also slightly frightened, but nothing serious.
"And not, it's not tentacle monster, you sick perverts." Naru said while looking at readers.
Naru was, right now, sitting in class room where she and those who came, for their graduation exam. She spotted Hinata, Shino, Choji, Shikamaru and few other non-important students. Well, they still got 15 minutes, before everything will start. Naru looked at Shino who was looking straight forward. His encounter with Wriggle was… fruitful. At least Wriggle didn't ate him.
Some times ago
Next day after Naru brought Shino to her house, she went back to Gensokyo to find that bug youkai. Playing match maker wasn't her branch. It would have much more chance of succeed if her mother would do that, but there is time for everything, so Naru decided to seek for that youkai.
It was… hard to find her. First she needed to find that Ice fairy she dual when she was younger, because, how was written in Gensokyo Chronicles she know about that youkai, at least so book said. Finding Fairy was easy, trying to make her speak was difficult. Trying to convince that tick-head was worthy a lot of time. And Trouble. And a lot of bullets, and one train. Everything solving train.
After that she took Naru to place where stand was, owned by bird youkai, Mystia. While not practically bad cook, speaking after eating 5 grilled lamprey, she convince she didn't mean any harm to Wriggle. And oh dear, what a pain in the ass was trying to convince that bug youkai to com along.
Seriously, convincing human to kill his mother would be easier, probably. Naru was confused. The only thing 'convince' Wriggle to come was fact that there were humans who use bug as weapons, in return allow them living in their bodies. Interesting by that fact, Wriggle decided to come along.
And then the really fun began.
Flashback
When Naru and Wriggle came out of the Naru's gap, she called Sakuya to bring Shino. The thing was, Sakuya met him quite near their house. When she brought him Naru introduce him to Wriggle.
"Shino, I'm glad you came." Naru smiled. Shino responded.
"You said you would bring that person here, so I came to see if you fulfill your part." Shino, like always, responded with no big emotions in his voice.
"Yes, yes. As you can see I brought her here. Wriggle this is Shino Aburame, heir of Aburame clan. Shino this is Wriggle Nightbug, Bug Youkai." Naru smiled brightly.
"Can I eat him?" Wriggle suddenly said.

Naru cracked her head forward Wriggle, still with smile on her face, which now was nervous. Sakuya face didn't changed but you could tell she was surprised. Shino probably for the first time, in Naru memories, got different expression which was expressed in… rose eyebrow. Really Shino.
Naru recovered from shock and said.
"No, no, no, no. You're not suppose to eat him." Naru said still with smile. Wriggle rest her hand on her hips and looked at Naru.
"Why, not. He is human, just human. True he got some bugs in him, but he is still eatable." Wriggle said. On Naru face vein pop out. She grabbed her parasol and smacked Wriggle in the face sending her few meters away.
"Do you, Youkai, think only about eating!?" Naru shouted, not Angry, or even mad. Stopping hard, with steam coming from her head she went where Wriggle was now laying. Shino didn't knew what was happening in front of him. Some shenanigans. Sakuya chuckled nervously under her nose.
Naru walked to Wriggle and grabbing her by collar, she looked at Wriggle and said.
"Don't eat him! If you do, I WILL have a lot of troubles on my head, gt it!? Now, I bring you here so you could meet him and maybe and I mean MAYBE consider him and potential mate, got it!?" Naru shouted in her face. Wriggle cover her ear and shouted back.
"Why should I!? He is human and I'm youkai. There I no way, this would happen!"
"Then turn him into youkai, it's not that hard, huh!?" Naru retorted. Wriggle got just one 'what the fuck' face.
"Did you get hit in the head too many times!? Reimu would kill me if I would do that!" Wriggle shouted back.
"This is not Gensokyo, Reimu would not care in slightness! If you would do that in Gensokyo, then she would care!" Naru retorted. Wriggle was going to say something, but she stopped herself.
Meanwhile Shino asked Sakuya.
"Do Naru-san is always so… lively."
"So-Sometimes..."She chuckled nervously not knowing how to respond to that. Naruko and Wriggle keep shouting at each others for another 10 minutes before they finally settled down. Long story short, Wriggle won't eat Shino, he need to get stronger and she will consider the offer. Shino only nodded, which slightly pissed off Wriggle, but she let it go. After that Naru send back Wriggle to Gensokyo and Shino went home.
End of Flashback
Naru looked at the rest. She looked at Hinata who was still a cold bitch. Well, being heir of a 'powerful' clan got it's disadvantages. You need to be the strongest in order to maintain your position, be serious and another few things Naru didn't bother. Overall, to be clan leader of Hyuuga, you need to be strong, cold bitch. And Hinata was doing great job at this. She was strong, fast and durable. But her personality was difficult. Her sister Hanabi, on the other hand was completely opposite to Hinata.
Carrying, nice, sweet, talkative. If Hinata was Yin, Hanabi was Yang. Naru didn't have chance to meet her, but she heard a rumors about her. She was bundle of happiness and joy in cold place called Hyuuga campus. The branch house of Hyuuga really liked her for her pure heart and innocent and help she is giving them support how ever she can, despite her young age.
She didn't have a chance to speak with Shikamaru or Choji mostly because these two were disappearing after classes and Naru didn't bother to search for them. Mostly because meeting them wasn't in her list of priorities, more like side quest. You can, but don't have to do it. She looked through window and she saw darker shadow in the tree. She could guess it was ANBU watching her. Old granddad was still careful about her. No surprises, he even got ANBU around her house and one or two are fallowing Sakuya is she ever leave household.
But it didn't matter for her right now, they didn't bother her, or could even enter her household, so she could easily ignore them. She looked at clock and saw that it was 5 minutes before graduation and almost everyone came.
Soon everyone came and soon after last person enter Iruka came with Mizuki behind him. Iruka was holding sheets of paper, while Mizuki box with hitai-ate inside. Iruka smiled and said.
"Welcome everyone. Today is your great day. Today exam will say your future, either you will join Ninja Corps or not, but don't worry even if you fail today, you can take another exam in next year. But I'm looking among you and I can say that everyone of you will surely pass the exam." Iruka said with pride and smile. Mizuki had small grin on his face, but he stayed quiet.
"Now, exam is a three-pieces exam. The First one is writing test, The Second one is kunai and shuriken test and the Last one is jutsu test, where you need to perform Henge, Kawarimi and make three clones." Iruka explain. Some of classmates where excited but few whined about writing test. Naruko rose hand. Iruka motioned so she could speak.
"What about me and The lest part of exam? Because I can't use chakra." Irukan nodded and said.
"You got two ways to pass the exam, either score max points at both writing and throwing exam or fight with Rock Lee from previous generation. Basing on the duel, you might or not pass the exam." Iruka said. Naru was in dot. On the one hand she want to pass and leave this horrible place called Academy, but on the other hand she didn't wanted to expose her skill yet.
"So, what you choose Naru?" She looked at Iruka and cracked her head. She sighed and dropping her head she said.
"I...I will take first option..." Naru said without energy. Iruka nodded and said.
"If that's all, we will began Exam. You got one hour to complete the Writing Test. Good luck everyone." After saying that, Iruka and Mizuki started to giving the tests. When they gave everyone the test Iruka gave signal in order to start. Naru looked at test and sighed. It was fairy simple test about knowledge about Konoha history, Ninja system, History of other countries and other things which were covered by Iruka, or earlier by her when she was learning.
It took her 10 minutes to finish it without a single mistake. She was also surprised that Mizuki didn't placed any genjutsu on her test. She noticed that he don't like her very much and sometimes wanted to sabotage her work, but his tries were in vein. And Naru always payed him back in form of some prank.
After another 40 minutes the rest also finished. Meanwhile she noticed that Shikamaru was sleeping through whole exam. He probably only wrote just to pass. Lazy butt. Even her mother wasn't such lazy person as him. But Naruko shrugged this off and waited when they will take them for next part. After last person gave exam Iruka and Mizuki took them all outside.
"Ok, class. Now you must hit the targets. 10 kunais and 10 shurikens. Get them from Mizuki." Iruka said. Everyone took their kunais and shurikens and waited for their turn. The score system was similar to when they were training. Overall everyone did a good job, except few nameless kids, which hit between 3-6 times out of 20. Poor things. They it was Naru turn, but before she could throw Iruka said.
"Naru, as you know, because you can't do third part of the exam, you will need to hit also moving targets. Five standing still targets and five moving targets. Got it?" Iruka asked on which Naru nodded. Iruka then turn on targets. Five were not moving the second five were moving sometimes covering those which were not moving.
Naru looked at them carefully before she did something nobody would do. She just throw randomly 9 kunais and 10 shurikens in the air. Iruka was going to ask what is she doing before Naru throw last shuriken with impressive power and precision. The kunais start hitting kunais and shurikens which where in the air. And to surprise of everyone, every last shuriken and kunai hit their targets right in 10. Except for one which flew back in Naru hand. She played with it for s second before she threw it at last target hitting perfect score.
Iruka, Mizuki and every single student had their jaw hitting the ground. Naru looked at targets and sighed.
"Heh, still not good at this. Need more training with Sakuya." She scratched her head. To those who want explanation, because some of you would want that. After the incident when Sakuya and Kurama run away and after Naru manage to bring Sakuya back, Naru, in form of punishment, order Sakuya to train her in throwing knives. Through these month Naru manage to impress Sakuya, but she still was nowhere near Sakuya level. But you can guess, the level she is right now, is far superior compare to humans here in Element Nations.
Iruka looked at targets and thought.
"Unbelievable… She just scored max points with moving targets… What kind of genius...No, monster she is…" Iruka thought with sweatdrop. After a few second of calming down after what he saw he gave Naru her hitai-ate and said.
"Good Job, Naru. You totally can be a good shinobi without using chakra. Master skill you got now and everything will be fine. Come to class in Mondey at 8 AM sharp for team announce." Iruka said and Naru nodded with bright smile. She looked at classmates and could feel daggers they were throwing at her.
"Such amount of jealousy could create new youkai if someone wanted to. Or power up already existing one." Naru thought with nervous smile. She also looked at Mizuki who got scowl on his face. But she just stuck his tongue and walked way, holding her hitai-ate in hand.
"Today is good day for a party~!" Naru said to herself. When she entered the house a gap opened next to her and she didn't even got chance to react when pair of hands wrapped around her. And the person said.
"Congratulation Naru-chan~!" Naru knew who it was. Her mother Yukari.
"Hai, hai. Now let me go, you're heavy..." Naru said with scowl. Yukari moved from Naru immediately and said in mock hurt.
"Wha-!? Me, heavy!?" Yukari was shocked. Before she start crying. "And I went through all this trouble to congratulate you...*sniff*" Yukari 'cried'. Naru felt how her mouth twitched.
"Ok, ok calm down. You're not fat." Naru said without energy. Yukari looked at Naru with buttered eyes before she exploded in joy.
"Oh, Naru-chan! You're so cute wen you're teased." Yukari patted Naru. She blushed slightly but dismissed Yukari hand.
"So, you're only here to tease me?" Naru asked. Yukari smiled innocently and pulled big bottle of sake. Naru eyes the bottle but didn't said anything.
"I come for a party to congratulate you~! How people here like to say 'Old enough to kill, old enough to drink'. Come let's party~! Sakuya!" Yukari called. Sakuya appeared second later.
"Prepare something to eat, if you can! Today we celebrate!" Yukari said. Sakuya looked at Naru who just shook her head. Sakuya sighed with small smile and disappeared soon after. After that Naru and Yukari sat down in saloon and start eating with Sakuya. They chatted, laughed and drink. Over all enjoyed themselves.
Yukari took sip of sake and sighed in bliss.
"Nothing is better that cold sake and celebrate." Yukari said with smile. Naru looked at her and said.
"Of course~! After all, I'm Awesome Youkaai Child~! Yohoho~!" Naru laughed while standing proudly on the chair and gave pose with full of pride. Sakuya and Yukari laughed loudly before Yukari too another sip and said.
"I got two news for you, one good and one...just news." Yukair pointed and Naru.
"What's that?" Naru looked at Yukari with grin. Sakuya didn't drunk too much, so she was more aware what was going on, but Naru was drunk, Yukari as well. But even so, they manage to not do anything crazy. Sakuya thanked mentally Zun for that.
"Anyway~! I got info about Kurama." Yukari said. Naru face was immediately near Yukari with determinate look. But because she was also flushed because of alcohol, she looked really cute. Yukari blushed and couldn't help herself but to hug her daughter.
"Naru-chan~! You're soo cute~!" Yukari keep hugging Naru and patting her like some kind of pet, but Naru was too drunk to care so she allowed Yukari to do that. After good five minutes Yukari let go of Naru and said.
"That's right, your Kaa-san found your lost pet… well pet maybe is wrong word. Your Shikigami." Yukair corrected herself, but Naru didn't noticed anything, even if she keep listening. "I found her somewhere in Rice country. The good news, she is fine and safe. Bad news, there is one guy who is completely insane and very dangerous. You better avoid contact with him for now, or summon me. This can work as well." Yukari waved it off. Naru nodded energetic.
"Anyway, I go with you to Rice county in next week, after your team assignment and real test for gennin. I know you gonna do just fine. Now second news." Yukari said changing topic.
"You remember that asshole, Mizuki?" Yukair asked. Naru nodded with scowl but also a grin. Being drunk got it perks. "Well, I found out that he wanted to steal something. Some big scroll, I don't know exactly why or why that practically scroll, but he gonna do it..."Yukari looked at clock and when clock hit 9…
"Now. Ok, we got about five minute to catch him in the forest. Wanna go for hunting?" Yukari asked. Naru thought for a second before she start to snore. Yukari and Sakuya looked at Naru dumbfounded. Yukari pointing at Naru she turned to Sakuya.
"Did she…?" Yukari wasn't sure if she assumed correctly. Sakuya also looked at Yukari surprised.
"I think...so. I… don't know what to say." Sakuya said surprised. Yukari looked at snoring Naru before she let loud sigh.
"I guess there is no helping it, Sakuya take Naru to her room. I will deal with that guy Mizuki." Yukari stated. Sakuya nodded and carefully took Naru to her room. Yukari looked at clock and said to herself.
"Well, better get going or he gonna run away. Who Am I kidding. I would catch him anyway." Yukari sighed with smile and disappeared in gap.
Forest around Konoha
Mizuki was running away from the Konoha with large scroll on his back. He got smirk on his face. He give quick glance forward place where Konoha was before saying to himself.
"I expected to steal a scroll to be much harder. But I don't complain. Now I need to just reach Rice country, before they see what happen." Mizuki chuckled to himself.
"Oh my, how interesting thing you got on your back. Mind if I take a look?" Someone said. Mizuki stopped and looked around trying to find the source of the sound. But the darkness didn't helped. He couldn't see anything. Annoyed he shouted.
"Show yourself!" He demanded. Second after, Yukari walked behind the tree while reading a scroll, like nothing happen. She looked at Mizuki and smiled.
"Don't mind me, I will just read this scroll." She dismissed him and continue to reading. Mizuki looked at her surprised, but she wasn't stopping him so it was fine. He also noticed she wasn't a ninja so it was even better. But when he wanted to leave he looked again at scroll women had and his eyes bulged. It was Forbidden Scroll.
Mizuki quickly looked at his back and saw that scroll was gone. He quickly looked back at Yukari was still reading the scroll.
"Ohhh. This might be interesting. This scroll contain quite a lot of knowledge. I wonder how old it is? Maybe turning it into Tsukumogami would be a good idea? No, it much trouble." Yukari said to herself, ignoring completely Mizuki who glared at her with venom.
"Oi, women!" He shouted. Yukari looked at him with rose eye brow. "I don't know how did you do that, but give this scroll back to my hands and I will let you live." He said. Yukari didn't changed her expression before she turned around and start walking while still reading the scroll.
"OI! What are you doing!? Stop ignoring me!" Mizuki demanded. Yukari felt annoyed and covering her ears she shouted back looking at him with annoyed expression.
"Ah, Noisy, Noisy, Noisy, Noisy, Noisy! Shut up! What do you want?" Yukari asked with bored expression. Mizuki pointed at scroll.
"Scroll! Give it back!" Mizuki said. Yukari looked between him and scroll before saying.
"Don't wanna..." She pouted. "I still didn't finished reading it." Yukari said. Mizuki felt how vein popped on his forehead.
"I don't care about your opinion! Give it back!" He shouted. Yukari hugged scroll and said.
"Don't wanna, Baka!" She shouted.
"This women…!"Mizuki felt how anger rose in him.
"You're Baka, you damn women. Give back my scroll!" Mizuki shouted.
"Get lost, you primitive!" Yukari shouted back.
"Annoyance!"
"Brute!"
"Retard!"
"Ape!"
"Blondie Idiot!"
"Grandpa!"
"Old Hag!" Mizuki shouted. And temperature dropped drastically. Mizuki felt creep gong down his back. Yukari got smile on her face. And this wasn't always a good sign. Like 99% of cases. Yukair chuckled darkly. Her eyes were cover by dark aura.
"Old Hag? Did I heard correctly? Oh boy. OH Boy! You gonna die here, friend!" Yukair said with maniacal smile before behind her opened three large gaps and from it, A FUCKTON of Moderns guns and rocket launchers! Even Barrel of tanks!
Mizuki didn't knew these things, but just ability to summon those thing out of thin air was scary. And he felt he gonna die. He stood still in one place and felt cold sweat was running down his face. He gulped and Yukari said.
Insert this Sound Effect watch ?v=OGp9P 6QvMjY
"This will teach a manners. Fire!" She shouted. And the forest was lighten up by dozen of smaller or bigger explosions. And the sound this made put EVERYONE, and I mean EVERYONE on high alert. The whole village was on code red. Every ninja quickly tried to gear himself and get ready for orders. Every civilian tried to hid himself or moved to hideout placed in Hokage Mountain. Sarutobi was giving orders to ninja and he was wearing his combat armor. Ninjas tried to prepare themselves thinking that Kyuubi attacked and sound of explosion where his roars.
Yukari after a few second stopped weapons and looked at smoking crater she crated. Not even blood remain from Mizuki. He was completely disintegrated by Yukari. After a second she huffed and hiding weapons and the scroll, she disappeared in one of her gap. And Naruko and Sakuya were in their house, one sleeping one looking at first how she was sleeping. This was a good night.
Ok, here is the chapter. It's slightly shorter than normal but I didn't wanted to falsely make it longer. It wouldn't bring any good to story and I wrote everything I planned for this chapter.
So I hope you will enjoy it. I know that scene with Mizuki was Out of Concept of original Mizuki in Naruto, but seriously. He the fuck care at this point when Yukari is involved. I will give you a hint. None.
Anyway, that's all for this chapter and see you guys in next chapters. See ya!
