Chapter 1: The start of something brand new.

Talking.

Thinking.

Beast talking.

Beast thinking.

Jutsu

Pain, that was a feeling she had grown familiar with in her life, the pain of being hit, the pain of being laughed out, even the pain of being beaten black and blue to the point she could barely stand. However, this was the first time she had ever felt the pain of betrayal.

In the dark night of Konoha's police force headquarters, under lock and key of a cell sat a young girl gazing at the window with eyes filled with anger and sorrow.

Naruko sighed, she never thought something like this would happen. At thirteen years old most would call her quite a beauty, a body lithe and toned bursting with hidden power, her eyes were a deep blue with a mix of violet in them. Her hair, once a great golden blond with streaks of red tied up in twin tails, now however, hung in tatters as if someone or multiple people took scissors to it and deliberately destroyed it. And of course, always prominent on her cheeks, a set of three lines that gave her the look of whiskers.

Her gaze was out onto the rest of the village she had called home, Konoha the supposed strongest in the elemental nation. For years she had grown up in the village, but for her it was not some happy paradise but a constant struggle for survival.

Naruko was given a heavy burden when she was born, she was made the jailor for the great nine tailed fox, a beast that would have destroyed Konoha had the fourth hokage not sealed it within her. He had hoped she would be treated as a hero at the time.

'Yeah right, like anyone would ever consider me a hero. Bunch of ignorant morons.' She thought bitterly.

All her life she had been hurt and abused for her power and for having the fox, she had no control of having it and yet she was still hated for her. For a time she felt things were looking up with her, after she graduated the academy she thought being a ninja would help solve her problems. At first things did look great, her team still saw her as useless but slowly she began to make friends with others, her success in the wave country mission and the chunnin exams helped boost her confidence she could change things. But then, then it all came crashing down, all because of one damn mission.

The Uchiha Retrieval mission.

When her friends had encountered the opposition and she was left to go ahead and get Sasuke she was excited, finally, finally she had a chance to show she wasn't the loser everyone thought she was. The battle had been fierce between them but thanks to the power of the Kyubbi she was able to beat him, and she returned hoping to met with happy faces and cheers.

Instead she was face with scorn and hatred, the village was appalled about the so called 'Demon Brat' hurting the last loyal Uchiha and descended on her like a pack of wolves, In the hospital doctors didn't even see her, it was only thanks to Shizune she was able to heal. Her team only visited her once, Sakura yelled at her for hurting 'Her' Sasuke and punched her hard leaving her hurting even worse, Kakashi declared her scum for hurting a comrade the way she did with the Rasengan and told her she was no longer her student.

Even then things only got worse, then her problems came from the Council and the choice they made.

*Flashback*

Naruko could only look at the ground with disbelief and sorrow as the council reached a decision.

"Naruko Uzumaki, because of your actions against Sasuke Uchiha you are hereby stripped of your rank and to be executed for your crimes." Tsunade said, her voice was filled with pain as she said the councils vote, behind her Jirayia felt ashamed of himself for letting down his goddaughter the way he had.

The members of the civilian council jeered and yelled at Naruko, calling her demon and brat and every manner of hateful insult, the shinobi council could only look at her with sadness, she didn't even register any of it as two ANBU came up behind her and took her away.

The last thing the council saw before she left was for her to stop, reaching up she took the headband off her head and threw it behind her, the loud clang of metal hitting the floor reverberated through the council hall and was met with silence before she was led away.

*Flashback ends*

'What am I supposed to do now?' Naruko thought as she finished playing over her memories.

"A very good question kit, but not the one you should be asking. The one you should be asking is, what do you WANT to do?" A low voice said within her mind, a voice she had grown thankful for.

Naruko had met the great Kyubbi early in her life, after a particularly nasty Fox Hunt on her birthday she ended up out cold for three days in the hospital. During that time she had found herself in her mindscape, there she met him and found out a few useful things. First was the Kyubbi actually respected her, he respected her bravery and drive to keep going for her and for that she was considered his favorite host in his eyes. The second was who she was, during the three days Kyubbi told her as much as he could about her parents, who they were, what they were like, why they did this. The third was the best however, with the Kyubbi's help she managed to change the seal holding him, doing so made her own strength that had also been accidentally sealed away emerge. After she had left him she always had him, her first real friend.

'I don't know, I mean what is their left to do right now. As of tomorrow I'm scheduled to be executed.' Naruko thought, ironic, she did her job and she was getting executed. The Uchiha abandoned the village and they gave him a slap on the wrist.

"Indeed that is true but, that only applies if we are in the village." Kurama said with a very fox worthy grin.

'Fuzzball where are you going with this?' Naruko asked, that smirk starting to mirror on her face.

"I know a way that can get us both out of here, get you someplace that will actually treat you right, and all it will need are two scrolls and a small bit of revenge." Kurama said.

"…I'm listening." Naruko said out loud.


Three hours later in the dead of the moonless night, a cloaked figure ran across the rooftops until they came to the Hokage Monument, scaling it by applying chakra to their feet they soon reached the top and rushed into the forest beyond.

After only ten minute's of running the person began to slow down, Finally stopping outside a hidden away manor with a large front gate. A very familiar swirl stood promptly on the front of it.

"You sure you're going to be able to get inside." Kurama asked looking through Naruko's eyes up at the large gate.

'If i'm right my mother or father would have keyed me into the seal matrix, if they did I should be able to just go in. If not then it will take a little time to get around the seal.' Naruko thought.

She was not as stupid or lazy as most thought her, thank's to kurama helping her in the mindscape she was actually quite intelligent, she never showed her full strength in the academy and always pretended to be the dead last when in actuality she probably could have handed Sasuke his ridiculous egotistical butt on a silver platter whenever she wanted. But thanks to the council she forced herself to hold back and not give them a reason to execute her.

Stepping towards the gate she reached a hand out slowly and tentatively, not wanting to accidentally hurt herself and risk being caught. Thankfully her guess was correct when the seal on the door glowed and swung open for her to enter.

Smiling she streaked inside and began to look around the Namikaze compound, even with years of neglect the place still held a charm to it. She eventually found what she was looking for, the library. From their she started packing, every jutsu scroll, every useful book on Fuinjutsu, even a few of the weapons she found, all tucked away in a large scroll.

Turning she left and was about to leave when she passed another room, inside was a nursery, what would have been her nursery. She walked in slowly and played a hand on the crib, it was hard to imagine had her parent's survived this would have been her room. Looking around she eventually sighed and turned to leave when she noticed a letter on the desk.

Curious, she picked it up and opened it.

"Dear Naruko

If you're reading this then something went wrong during the day of your birth, either myself or Minato or both of us aren't there for you and for that I am so sorry. I'm writing this letter in the hopes that when you read it we will be sitting with you laughing at how silly your mother is being, and if not to give you something to remember us by.

To start with i'm your mother, Kushina Uzumaki of the Uzumaki clan, with a little hope I assume you have already learned about your clan from someone but incase here are the facts. You come from a long line of Uzumaki, once the leaders of the island village Uzushiogakure the home of are clan. We were the worlds best Fuinjutsu masters, second to none which means hopefully you have an affinity for the art. Sadly during the Third Great Shinobi war, the village was wiped out by Kumo, Kiri, and Iwa with barely any survivors. I was one of them when I fled to konoha, living there brought me to the man I fell in love with, your father Minato Namikaze. That's right sweetie, your dad is the fourth Hokage.

Because I was an Uzumaki I was chosen for another task, to be the Jinchurriki of the nine tailed fox, a heavy burden and one I hope you never have to face. It made my life hard with people constantly looking down on me, but I pushed through it and managed to earn their respect the hard way, in the end though it was worth it.

Naruko I can't say in this letter how deeply sorry I am if i'm not there for you, but I want you to know that me and your father love you with all our hearts, promise me no matter what you will stay strong and remember that we will always be there for you no matter what. If I am not there and you hold the Kyubbi then remember love is what tames the beast.

Inside this scroll is a gift to you, my own personal Fuinjutsu kit and all my research on seals, take it and make your ancestors proud of you, take it and remind the world why the uzumaki were considered legends for are seals, take it and make a life for yourself that you will be happy with.

I have to go now, be safe.
Love Mom."

By the end of the letter Naruko felt tears rolling down her cheeks, reading it had brought sadness to her heart but, it also brought joy. To know her parent's truly did love her and didn't just abandon her made her feel so much lighter. Seeing the seal she pushed chakra into it and brought out an intricate kit with the Uzumaki seal on it.

"Do you need a minute kit?" Kurama asked her.

"No, no i'll be fine. I intend to do what my mother asked of me to, to make a life for myself filled with happiness and to remind the world why you don't screw with the Uzumaki." She said confidently, wiping the tears from her eyes.

"All right then, lets make are one last stop then get the hell out of here." Kurama said confidently as well, glad to see his host resolve was back.

With a firm nod they left the place behind after sealing a few photos and toys and raced back into the village, heading to one place in particular. The Uchiha clan district.

Getting inside was laughably easy, for a village that cared so much about them the Uchiha's probably had the absolute worst security in the village. Naruko payed this no mind as she moved to the clan house she soon found it, unlocked the door and snuck inside. Using a Jutsu to make herself as silent as a ghost she made it to Sasuke's room and found him asleep.

'Even when he's asleep he still has an egotistical smirk.' Naruko thought, a sweat drop forming on her head. Shaking her head she cleared her thoughts as sh moved forward and stuck, one solid punch to the head and Duck butt wouldn't be waking till morning. With that done she took out the writing kit and with the help of the fox, began to write a very complex seal on sasuke's forehead and stomach. The one on his forehead would cut off all chakra to his eyes and make it so he had no access to his sharing and would destroy his eyes if anyone messed with it, the one on his stomach made him sterile. In the stroke of a brush Naruko Uzumaki essentially screwed over the Uchiha line.

With things done and done, she snickered and wrote a quick note before moving outside. Finding an open spot she sat down and began writing another seal for more complex and bigger then she had before, it took roughly twenty minutes to complete but the results were worth it.

"All right, now just channel my chakra into it and hold on to your butt." Kurama said snickering, this was gonna be fun.

Naruko stood and took one last look at the village before she smirked, gathering the demon charka in her hands.

"See ya, assholes!" She yelled as loud as she could before activating the seal and was gone in a blinding pillar of light. When it died down nothing remained but burned earth, When the ANBU came to investigate they found themselves puzzled until the checked Sasuke's room and found him knocked out with a note on his forehead.

"Payback's a bitch, ha." It read and was signed, Naruko Uzumaki.


Naruko groaned after what seemed like forever and cracked open her eyes, only for a moment later to shut them tightly at the blinding light. After adjusting she opened them again and stood, for some reason her body felt heavier then before and yet at the same time more balanced and graceful.

"Bout time you woke up." Kurama said making sure his host was all right.

'Kurama, did the seal work, are we away from Konoha.' Naruko asked confused.

"See for yourself kit." Kurama said nudging her forward, confused Naruko walked forward and gasped at the sight before her.

She was standing high atop a mountain peak in a garden of some form, below her not far was a large palace made of jade and seemed fit for an emperor, around it were other smaller buildings she actually recognized as a barracks, training hall, bath house and so on. Passed all that she saw a large valley spread out before her, houses and shops dotted the landscape clustered together in a village, but not any village she had ever heard of.

'Where in the world are we?' She asked clearly confused.

"To be honest i'm not fully sure, I can tell you were not in are world anymore though." Kurama said surprising her.

'What do you mean not in are world?! Where are we Kurama!' Naruko demanded.

"We'll figure it out later, for right now, DUCK." Kurama yelled in her mind, her instincts sensed danger and without thinking she ducked back as a small form go flying over her hand and land in front of her.

Flipping backwards on her hands she dropped into a stance, ready to fight whoever attacked her. However she was not expecting a…Panda?

Ok, a red panda from the look of it but, that left her no more confused that before. Had she gone to a summoning realm or something?

"Who are you, how did you get up here." The red panda demanded looking at her.

"I don't know, I just woke up here I swear." Naruko said in a confused tone, the panda was having none of that and attacked her, she blocked and ducked under his furious Taijutsu assault and did her best to keep up with him.

'What's with this guy, its like fighting Lee without his weights on?' She thought.

After a minute of battling the two separated again.

"I'll ask one more time fox, who are you." The red panda demanded again.

'Fox? Oh great does he know who I am too or something.' Naruko thought bitterly.

"Ahhh, not quite kit. Look down and left." Kurama said with a very disturbed tone.

Confused she did as told and nearly jumped out of her skin when she saw her reflection in a small lake. Looking back at her was a golden bipedal fox that same height as her, its body as toned and well built with hidden muscle like her own, its fur was a golden blond with swirls and streaks of red in it, its eyes a deep cerulean blue and three dark whiskers adorned its cheeks, on its head was crimson red ears and coming out of her spine were nine fluffy blond tails tipped with red. All in all the fox was beautiful and deadly, and the reason it unnerved Naruko was because it moved as she did.

"WHAT THE HELL, WHY, AM I A FOX?" She yelled clearly confusing the panda.

"What are you yelling about, though i've never seen a fox with that many tails—only in myths really—no one is stupid to not know their own race?" The panda said about to attack her again when a voice halted him.

"Enough Shifu, I do not believe it to be wise to continue to battle are guest, especially since she has done nothing to warrant it." An elderly voice said that made Naruko snap back to reality.

Approaching them was an elderly looking turtle, his shell was a deep great with a cloth baring a symbol she didn't recognized on it on the back, he was using a finely crafted walking can to help support him, but what caught Naruko most of all was the grandfatherly smile she had only seen from the old man before he died.

"Apologies master, I found this vixen trespassing on the balance grounds and confronted her." The landed, now named Shifu, explained to the old turtle.

"I understand Shifu, but I believe she is not trespassing, I believe she is here for a reason. So perhaps it would be wise to wait before we pass judgement." The turtle said before looking at her.

"So tell us young fox, what is your tale." The old turtle asked.

Calming down after the confusion Naruko decided to do the polite thing and bowed to the turtle.

"I apologize to you both, I did not mean to trespass. I'm afraid I don't know how I got here as I just woke up from a rather strange experience." She said then grew sad." As for my tale, it is not a pleasant one." She admitted, something about the turtle made her want to trust him, she hadn't felt that way since Sarutobi.

"Then, perhaps the smart thing to do is to talk over tea." The turtle said kindly, motioning for the two to follow back to the palace, reluctantly for different reasons they both followed behind.


After introducing themselves—in which she found out the Turtle was named Oogway— Naruko told her tale to the pair, she didn't leave any of the details out, her new fox instincts seemed to relax around them, so she trusted them with the details.

When it was all said Oogway looked solemn and Shifu looked ready to kill someone.

"How could anyone do that to a child, especially for something they had no control over? If I ever get my hands on those villagers i'll-" Shifu started.

"Peace Shifu, senseless anger are not the ways I taught you." Oogway said to calm his student and friend.

"But master, something like this is unforgivable." Shifu said looking at his teacher.

"I know my old friend, but what has occurred in the passed cannot be undone. All that can be done is to help Naruko on her way to a bright future." Oogway said earning a look of surprise from said fox.

"You want to help me, why I just told you my story?" She asked, this had never happened to her before.

"My dear, no one should have to suffer what you have. I would be a cruel old man if I did not do anything to help heal the pains that these villagers left on you." He said actually adding a bit of venom to the word villagers which shocked Shifu.

"The same goes for me, i'm sorry I attacked you outside Naruko." Shifu said bowing his head in shame, he shouldn't have acted so rashly.

"Shifu, it's ok. I know it sucks but, I'm use to things like that. Besides it takes more then a misunderstand to bring me down and that's all it was, a misunderstanding." Naruko said patting Shifu's head making him trying and knock her arms away, though she saw the smile.

"Then my dear I believe I know the perfect way to help you." Oogway said getting Naruko's attention.

"I ask you as a new friend and someone who wishes to see you happy, stay here at the Jade Palace and be my second student, I believe you would make an amazing master of Kung Fu and i wish to help you achieve this." Oogway said, Naruko felt her eyes go wide as she looked at him.

'Do you think this is a trick or something.' Naruko thought to kurama who had been silent through the whole story.

"No, I can see it in both your eyes. They care for you and want to see you happy, plus I think you should stay as well. This is a fresh start for you kit, take it." Kurama said, a small smile graced his lips as he watched his host.

She thought it over to a minute before looking at Oogway with a smile.

"I would be honored to be your student… Master Oogway." Naruko said with a bow bringing a smile to them both.


Hello ladies and gentlemen, it is I Tenzo
So folks here it is, my fourth and last current story, yes I said originally I would only do three but I changed my mind.
So something different for a change, this will be my first crossover pic and I could't be happier with the idea. This story came to me at work so you know its gonna be good.
So a heads up, Naruko is going to be a teacher in this book, not one of the five. Yes, she will still beat the hell out of bandits but she mainly will teacher the Five and Po. This is also based off the movie not the show.
Anyways thats all for now, as always like, review and all that. PEACE.
