Flashback

THE FIRST FEW CHAPTERS WILL REMAIN THE SAME. Mostly…

Naruto Uzumaki was an eleven year old girl, but she was different from other girls that were her own age. Naruto was not a Fan Girl but do make not that Naruto would commit Seppuku (suicide) before she would ever become like them. Naruto was tall for her age and was very thin, even though she could usually eat twenty large bows of miso ramen for almost every meal. Naruto also had two main hobbies; gardening (there was a good sized garden on the roof of her apartment complex which she was finally able to buy last year) and Fuinjutsu (art of sealing).

About two years ago Naruto had created her very own weapon, with the use of two pairs of gloves and over ten thousand feet of Ninja Wire. At the ends of each finger Naruto had sewn a different type of storage seal. Once that was done she put five hundred feet of wire in each seal and she used her chakra unseal most of the wire, leaving about a foot inside the seal. Then she would use her chakra to guide the wire to go wherever she wanted it to go and it could cut though anything if she wanted it to.

Naruto practiced using it until she had mastered it and that was hour she became friends with Team 9, even though Rock Lee and Guy-Sensei still scared her senseless. She even managed to pull the twenty foot pole out of Neji Hyuuga's ass by beating him in a spar. So now Neji only acted like an asshole to people outside his small circle of friends. TenTen because fast friends with Naruto after she had shown TenTen how her gloves worked. Rock Lee had declared Naruto as his new eternal rival, with thanks from Neji, and had taken to challenging her almost every time he saw her. So far it was 19-18 in Naruto's favor.

Might Guy had taught her to walk on tress and water using Chakra to help her with her Chakra control. Guy was turning out to be a way better Sensei than Kakashi who would only teach them teamwork. Which, by the way, was useless because Sakura hated Naruto with a passion and followed Sasuke around like a lost puppy, relentlessly asking for dates and being turned down; Sasuke thought that everyone was beneath him and that they were scum and that everything should be given to him on a silver platter, constantly thinking about how to kill his older brother and possibly his own team if he could get away with it. Kakashi-Sensei is always three hours late and was always reading that horribly written porn, in all truth he was just a lazy ass.

Another trick that Naruto had learned with Fuinjutsu, was to put a seal on her bandages and wrap them around her chest. This gave the illusion that she was flat chested rather than as well endowed as she was in the chest department. It also played a part in her best prank; if someone thought she was a boy she never went out of her way to correct them and she never specified if she was male or female.

'It's a god thing I created that seal that prevent the Uchiha from copying my jutsu. So worth getting it tattooed on my ass.' Naruto thought to herself as she watched Sasuke Uchiha out of the corner of her eye. She could clearly see him thinking about his newly awakened Sharingan. 'I should give the seal to Team 9 just in case… and the other teams while I am at it.'

Team 7 was now traveling back home to Konoha with two extra guests tagging along; Momochi Zabuza and his apprentice Haku. It was Naruto's quick thinking that had saved them from being killed by Kakashi and with the perfect timing to see that Gato had double crossed the Missing Nin. Naruto, in all her brilliance, was going to adopt them into her Clan; thank Kami they had agreed.

It was as they were nearing Konoha that Zabuza posed a rather innocent and altogether earth shattering question, "Naruto-San, what are your parents' names?" Kakashi, Sasuke, and Sakura all perked up at the question, having never been told the identities of the blonde's parents either.

Naruto adopted a faraway look as she answered, "I don't know my father's name, Hokage-Jiji said that he would tell me once I made Chunin so that I could protect myself from his enemies. I know my mother's name though, she was Uzumaki Kushina: the Red Hot Blooded Habanero."

Kakashi connected the dots in his head as to who his blonde student's father was and he felt the urge to kick himself for not having seen it sooner. Sasuke was reminded of his mother and all the times that she had spoken of her best friend, Kushina. To Sakura the name was familiar, perhaps from a history lesson that he had not felt the need to pay attention to.

Zabuza nodded his head as Haku asked, "So that makes you the new Uzumaki Clan Head, right Naruto-Sama?"

"I guess so," Naruto said noncommittally as she pondered the validity of Haku's words and if, by a stroke of luck, there would be other Uzumaki out there.

"THAT BAKA HAS A CLAN?!" Sakura screeched; she could not believe what she was hearing.

With a fierce glare, Zabuza decided that a brief history lesson was in order. "The Uzumaki Clan, came from Uzushiogakure, which they also ruled. See that spiral on your headband as part of the leaf? It is the symbol of Uzushiogakure. Konoha and Uzushio have an eternal alliance and to solidify that they sent members of the ruling family to Konoha as a sign of good faith. The Uzumaki Clan was well kown and rightly feared for their seal mastery, their longevity, and their dense godlike chakra reserves. About half, or maybe more of the Uzumaki Clan was destroyed at the start of the Third Great Shinobi War when Iwa, Kumo, and Kiri joined forced to attack them. Despite the genocide of the Uzumaki Kiri, Kumo, and Iwa took heavy losses. "

Sasuke and Sakura were stunned into silence, the new information casting their teammate in a whole new light… well not so much for Sasuke, he felt that if the Uzumaki were destroyed, they were weak.

Kakashi spoke up then, "So now the Uzumaki are scattered to the four corners of the world. They dropped the clan name in order to remain safe and hidden from their enemies."

Zabuza smirked under his bandages as he added, "Well, they'll stay scattered till they catch wind of a new Clan Head."

Kakashi felt something in his head short circuit and he lost concentration on his porn. He looked up, "Are you saying that the rest of the Uzumaki would come to Konoha if they knew about Naruto?"

Zabuza nodded. "The only thing that an Uzumaki is more loyal to thank their village is their family and Clan Head." He snickered. "I remember one guy, a fellow swordsman whose mother was an Uzumaki. He said that he never wanted to be related to me ever and now we are family! I can't wait to see the poor bastard's face!" Zabuza started to laugh, a low, mad laugh, that shook his shoulders and send shivers of fear down Sakura's and Sasuke's spines. Naruto and Haku simply rolled their eyes.

They were close to the main gate where a small party was waiting to greet them when Sakura rounded on Naruto. "Is your Clan full of crazies?!" she demanded.

Naruto grinned. "Yes Sakura-San. Is there a problem with that?" Sakura backed away, shaking her head in abject fear.

Naruto's smile looked to be kind, caring even… so long as you ignored the Grim Reaper in all his bony glory in the background, leaning on his scythe and a near empty hour glass. The times was almost up and the Reaper was smiling, as much as a skull could, in anticipation. Naruto called it "The Smile of Nightmares." She had created the Jutsu after seeing the 'Sunset' jutsu belonging to the Green beasts of Konoha.

"Hey Gaki! What was that Jutsu you just used? We would love to have it in T&I," Said a tall scarred man in a brown trench coat.

"This is Morino Ibiki, head of the T&I department," Hiruzen Sarutobi introduced. Zabuza and Haku became pale as sheets at the name.

"It is called 'Smile of Nightmares no Jutsu'. I created it after seeing the Sunset Jutsu." Both the Hokage and Ibiki flinched at the mention of the Jutsu. "I can teach you later once everyone is settled in Ibiki-San," Naruto said with a smirk. Ibiki could not wait to get his hands on it. He knew that nothing would crack prisoners faster than seeing death itself smiling at them.

"I take it that you have requested to have these two to join your clan along with the Demon Brothers correct Naru-Chan?" the Hokage asked.

"Hai, Hokage-Jiji-Sama," Naruto replied immediately.

Sarutobi nodded and said, "Very well. Naruto, come with me and we will have the paperwork filled out. Ibiki will make sure that two are not a danger to Konoha. I want the Mission Report on my desk tomorrow, first thing, Kakashi."

With that the group went their separate ways.
