A/N: Hello everyone, this is Yuna the Ninja. I know I'm just a newbie when it comes to writing stories, but hey. Everyone's got to start somewhere, right? So I bring to you my very first story - Naruto: Gamer of Sekirei. Some parts of the story may seem a bit familiar, cuz I'm just not creative that way, but hopefully my writing style and story will improve over time. Any criticisms or advice are appreciated, just don't flame me!

Oh, and obviously, I don't own Naruto or Sekirei, though having one of those ladies around me would be heavenly. (I'm a girl, by the way _)

Anyways, onwards to the story!

Flashback

"Of course I knew how important bonds are. And that's why I severed them. Having too many bonds causes one to lose focus, weakening their strongest wish, their greatest desire." An emotionless voice, quiet yet charismatic, echoed through the cavern.

"…If that's true… If that's true, then why… Why didn't you kill me back then!? Is that what you call severing bonds!? Sasuke!" The blond grimaced, the pain of their previous clash still fresh.

"The reason is simple." Sasuke continued, undeterred. "And it isn't that I wasn't able to sever my bonds with you. I just didn't want to give him the pleasure of seeing me attain power by submitting to his plans."

"What do you mean by that?!"

"There's no need for me to tell you…Still, the one thing I can say to you, is that back then…I chose to spare your life at nothing more than a whim of mine." With an unprecedented speed, Sasuke reappeared next to Naruto.

'When did he..!' Barely holding in a flinch, Naruto stared on ahead.

"Come to think of it, isn't being hokage a dream of yours? If you had the time to go around looking for me, you would have been better off training. Don't you think, Naruto?" He continued, smirking.

"And that's why this time.." Sasuke pulled his sword out in an agonizingly slow pace. "You're going to end up losing your life, all at a whim of mine."

"…" Naruto gritted his teeth, speechless. Then he looked straight back at Sasuke, once again showing his undying determination in his eyes. "Like there's any chance someone who can't save a friend could become hokage. Don't you think?...Sasuke."

Sasuke smirked and swung down his katana toward his ex-teammate. Sai intercepted the blade, allowing the Naruto and Sakura to close in. As they were readying their respective attacks, Sasuke shot out his Chidori Nagashi, bringing all three teens to their knees. Tenzou shot out a branch to bind Sasuke, which he nimbly shunshined out of the way, onto the top of the cliff.

"Konoha…I'm through with you." Sasuke muttered as he prepared for a long sequence of hand signs. "Now things end...!"

"Now, now, no need to use that jutsu here, Sasuke-kun." An eerie voice interrupted, gripping Sasuke's wrist. "We shouldn't waste any more time here. After all, there aren't that many that can hold their own with the Akatsuki members, you know."

"Oro-teme…!" Naruto growled out, standing back up. "I won't let you take him away!"

"Oh, but dear, you will." With a hand sign, Orochimaru, along with Sasuke and Kabuto, was embraced in blue fire. "Then, toodles~" And they left without a trace.

Flashback End

"Damn it..!" He punched a log – his makeshift training post – in his back yard. Only the sound of heavy thuds and occasional grunts reverberated throughout the area. 'What did I do these last three years? Training with the Gama Sennin…Pah!'He inwardly scoffed. It wasn't to say that Naruto had not improved during the training trip; it was simply that Sasuke was better: he was much faster, stronger and smarter than him, as reluctant as he was to admit. 'And had better resources, too. The only thing I had was a horny drunkard who always wondered off to brothels.'

Naruto gritted his teeth in anger once more, and summoned a ball of energy using two hands, and grinded the log to the ground. "Rasengan! Rasengan! Rasengan!" He roared as he repeatedly struck the ground with the famed jutsu.

'Can't even do the damned jutsu with one hand…' His bangs shaded his eyes. Nothing seemed to go well for him. The number of his precious people was only decreasing, and he was powerless to prevent it.

As the blond was pitying himself in his mind, a sparkle of light on the ground caught his eye. Just where his rasengans drilled the ground, a small black box was buried somewhat crudely.

"What the…" He approached it and carefully dug it out.

'It seems to be made of technology much more advanced than ours.' Naruto mused and admired the intricacy of the small box. He wondered what he should do for a moment, but never having been the one to think too hard, he pried open what seemed to be the lid of the box.

A quick flash came from it, soon followed by a mechanical female voice. *Configuration, beginning*

Naruto blinked. In front of him was a large screen with a green bar that seemed to fill up rather quickly.

*Rebooting in 5…4…3…2…1…*

The screen disappeared, leaving Naruto alone in his back yard.

"Oooh kayy…? I don't even want to know what happened just now…" Having half the mind to simply ignore that anything happened and walk back into his house, the young ninja smoothly put back the box in the hole on the ground. As he was about to cover it up with dirt, the box radiated with light once again.

*Error. Insufficient power to support the program. Shutting down until requirements are met.*

And with one final flash, his world blackened as a shroud of lavender surrounded him.

"Damn, what hit me?" He groggily sat up. Nothing seemed to be wrong with him save for the stiff body and ringing head. Naruto grabbed the dry ground to get a grip of himself. 'Wait…dry ground..?' The blond suddenly seemed to sober up as he started to assess the environment. The seemingly unending earth and no sign of living creature surprised him. 'Well, this sure isn't my backyard…'

*Alternative Energy source located. Recommencing game*

Naruto jumped back at the sudden emergence of the cold voice, as well as the somewhat familiar grey screen floating in front of him.

"Okay, enough! What the hell did you do to me? Where the hell am I?" The shinobi raved on. "I thought this was supposed to make me stronger, not put me in a no-man's land!"

*You have been safeguarded in a probe whist being put in an inanimate state, as it was inadvertently concluded that the technology was not developed enough to generate the necessary energy. The alien ship crash a few years ago provided the power, thus the reanimation of your body. With the sufficient resources available, you can now begin to construct yourself in a more efficient way.*

Naruto blinked.

*…*

"So…in English?" The boy had the gall to look sheepish.

*You were frozen for 3000 years, and now – year 2007 – you can begin the game. And yes, you can become super strong, too.*

It must have been a figment of imagination to have heard exasperation in the metallic voice.

*For more information, voice 'help'. Happy gaming.*

It was somewhat awkward hearing the detached voice say 'happy gaming'. But no matter, Naruto had more urgent things to do than to speculate on such random things.

"So…help…was it?"

The familiar screen of grey popped up in front of his face. Without flinching this time, he read the words on the sign:

Help:

Controls
Stats
Missions

"Well, that sure is brief." The teen mused. "At least it means that it's not complicated…right? Aaaand now I'm talking to myself. Great. And they say that talking to yourself is the first sign of madness. I'm probably going mad now all thanks to the no-good game box thing. Grrrrr…Whatever! Controls!"

Controls:
You can gain access to the menu screens by simply calling for it. Once the screen is on, touch the panels to operate.

Stats- You can view and adjust the status points here. Your body in real life will be changed to accommodate the changes here.
Equipment- You can view what items you have on your person.
Inventory- You can view all the items that you have gained. A space/time storage can be accessed here. Your money is also stored here.
Skills- You can view all the jutsu and skills you have acquired here.

"Status points? What are those? So if I flick the screen back like this…" The blond gingerly pushed his fingers onto the surprisingly solid screen, and swiped it right.

Help:

Controls
Stats
Missions

"Stats. I have no friggin idea what the hell those are."

Stats:
Status points are gained through leveling up. Each level up allows you to gain 3 status points, which you will be able to invest in any of the categories you choose. Every point will boost your attributes in real life, so choose carefully in what you spend the points on.

Intelligence: Increases the speed of learning anything (jutsu, knowledge, mechanics)
Speed: Increases speed (jutsu, physical, reflex)
Strength: Increases raw power (muscle power… what else did ya' expect..?)
Dexterity: Increases skills in performing tasks (chakra manipulation, weapons, accuracy, mechanics, cooking)
Charisma / Attractiveness: Increases the probability of allying others or persuading them, or bedding them

"Bedding them?! Why the hell is that a stat?" Naruto coughed. "I can bet my life that ero-sennin would invest all his points on this one. Anyways, this game thing really would be helpful for training if I properly use it… And I really should stop talking to myself…" Naruto hung his head down in dejection. 'I'm not going to talk to myself anymore! I'm not going mad dammit!' The young blond shouted in his mind, though that probably inched him towards madness, not preventing it.

Going back on track, Naruto swiped the screen back to the help menu, and into the 'missions' window.

Missions:
Missions will be randomly given by the game mechanics. By finishing each mission, you can gain exp points varying on the mission difficulty as well as rewards. The rewards can be but not limited to items, money, or new skills.

"Well, that was-" He clamped his mouth shut. 'Well, that was rather short.' The kid's eye twitched at almost having spoken out loud again. 'Probably a good idea to check out how this game works, then' He mused. "Skills"

Skills:

Observation (lv.1)
Shadow clone jutsu (lv.5)
Sexy jutsu (lv.2)
Rasengan (lv.4)
Henge (lv.3)
Kawarimi (lv.2)
Surface/water walking (lv.3)

'Yeah.. Seems about right. It even has my own 'sexy jutsu'. But what's that observation thing? They call looking at things a skill?' Exasperated, Naruto went back to exploring his new ability. "Equipment"

Equipment:

Senju's emerald necklace: The necklace of Hashirama Senju. It has the ability to subdue even the strongest bijuu. Dex +15
Orange jumpsuit: An eyesore of a jumpsuit that is really orange and ugly. Something not even a hobo would wear. Str +1, Chr -10
Basic shinobi sandal: A basic sandal for shinobi. Spd +3

"Something is obviously wrong here! What does it mean by orange and ugly?! Orange is an awesome color dammit! But damn, minus 10 charisma? A bit harsh, isn't it?" Naruto plopped on the floor, a small raincloud hovering over his head. It was always the orange that got dissed. But he would love the color for all its worth, no matter how much the world tried to separate them.

After a while, he finally collected himself, and decided to venture a bit further. "Stats"

Stats:

Naruto: Lv.18 (exp: 10/180)

(54) stat points remaining

Intelligence: 15
Speed: 31 (+3)
Strength: 35 (+1)
Dexterity: 24 (+15)
Charisma / Attractiveness: 22 (-10)

"

"What?! My total attractiveness is 12?! I'm much more handsome and awesome to be that! But if this is true…no wonder Sakura-chan never accepted my dates…" He sobbed. This was the day Naruto learned the harsh truth about himself, that he truly was a good-for-nothing eyesore. As Naruto was about to go into full-depression mode, he noticed the number of unused stat points.

"DATTEBAYO! I knew I couldn't have been that useless! Haha- Beat that, Sasuke-teme! My powers were simply hidden where I couldn't reach!" Again, he didn't notice that he was shouting out to no one…

After a moment, Naruto stared at the screen with barely suppressed giddiness. "Should I go for strength? Or speed? Or maybe enhance my devilishly good looks?" The blond's face threatened to split with his shit-eating grin.

In the end, he compromised with himself to first focus on speed and strength. And after seeing the results, he would decide on his next moves.

Focusing back on the screen, Naruto deftly put 25 points in strength, 25 points in speed, and 4 points in charisma. His ego just could not allow his attractiveness to be rated so low. As soon as he pressed the confirm button, his body stiffened. An uncomfortable feeling washed by, then returned to its normal state.

Stats:

Naruto: Lv.18 (exp: 10/180)

(0) stat points remaining

Intelligence: 15
Speed: 56 (+3)
Strength: 60 (+1)
Dexterity: 24 (+15)
Charisma / Attractiveness: 26 (-10)

All his work was done. There was nothing else left for him to do except to kick some major ass. His stomach growled. And maybe finding a place that has some good ramen…

Meanwhile…

In a large room that seemed like a laboratory, multiple beepings accompanied by red flashes could be heard. Several scientists glared at a computer screen, while a few others were typing away as if their fingers were on fire, trying to find the source of the error.

"Ma'am, a sudden surge in energy was located approximately 3 miles from the spaceship!" A scientist in white shouted with urgency in his voice.

"What! Could it be another Sekirei? Or an invasion?" A white haired woman muttered anxiously. "Dispatch the Disciplinary Squad! Tell them to capture the thing and bring it back alive!"

Several 'hai's were heard throughout the room, soon followed by hurried footsteps heading out the lab. The white haired woman sighed, and took out a cigar from her lab coat's pocket. "I'm not getting paid enough for this shit…" She muttered as she inhaled the smoke.

On the Next Chapter:

"I told you, I have no idea! It's not my fault I appeared out of thin air!" He whined.

Four pairs of eyes twitched, and a certain purplette giggled.

The 'leader's piercing wine eyes shadowed as her hand reached for her katana.

The moment her hands touched the sword's handle, two 'dings' sounded from the timer as it started the countdown.

'Oh shi-'

Even before he was able to finish swearing in his mind, with a short and swift movement, the woman slashed in the young shinobi's direction.

A/N: So how was it? Worth giving a few minutes of your time? This chapter was basically the prologue of the story, so it's on the short side. It will definitely get longer and have more interesting scenes in them as time passes.

I know I didn't bring out any of the Sekirei yet, but then I would have to write so much longer than this, so I just cut it short :P

But no worries- I'm planning to upload the next one in probably a day or two? So please, keep tuned!
