Hi, so it was REALLY late, I couldn't sleep, and I wanted to just type something, so I did. Anyway, let me know what you think. If you like it, review, cause otherwise I won't know and if I don't know, I will think you don't like it and never update it. So...as everyone else says, I do not own Naruto. If I did, Sasuke would be dead, Itachi would have a much bigger spot in the story and Sakura would listed highly in other nation's bingo books to name a few. And yes, I know it's short and rushed, but as I said, it was late, I was suffering from sleep deprivation and couldn't sleep.

Kakashi slowly rose from his crouched position. Team seven's first jounin mission had been a success; but of course, Naruto just had to get himself knocked out. The pastel haired girl of the team sighed, "It's always him."

Sai poked the blond with a stick, "Hey, dickless, wake up." Silver bangs shook with their leader's head as he wordlessly lifted the boy before heading back towards their beloved village.

"I finally found you." The words caressed the pinkette's ears causing her to spin around, tense and ready for her unknown enemy's attack. Her eyes narrowed, "Sakura! Let's go!" another voice called.

"Coming!" she replied before twisting on her heels to reach her group.

A busty woman stared at the single, luminescent senbon in the glass jar. Her eyes narrowed, there was only one village in the ninja world that could create these, let alone have ninja who could wield them. After much contemplation, she spoke, "Shizune. Assemble the Elders."

"H-Hai. Tsunade-sama."

It had been a week since they had returned and Naruto had been placed on guard duty today. He groaned, "No one EVER comes to the east gate!"

"Is that so? This place was quite the center of attention last time I was here."

The feminine voice reached his ears, causing the blond to bold into a sitting position as he took in the girl. She had bright red hair pulled back into a high pony tail. A pair of black chopsticks with white designs painted onto the wood had been placed delicately through her hair as white ribbon hung loosely with her hair. Vibrant scarlet eyes locked with his own blue hues, her right eye covered by long bangs kept separate from the rest of her pinned locks. "Who are you?" he asked in awe.

The slit pupils within those crimson orbs made his hair stand on end. "I'm like you Naruto-san, only more so." That's when it clicked, the girl before was not human, she was a fox. She grinned, revealing pearly white fangs, "Anbu-san, there is not use hiding. I surpassed you many a year ago." The girl's tone hinted at her age and to the boy's surprise, the elite ninja did as he was bade. "You may inform Tsunade-san that I am here and that as the agreement stood with the Fourth, he shall come with me." Her eyes never left the blond as the other ninja nodded before disappearing.

"I won't go with you." He stated defiantly. "This is my home and I don't even know who you are."

His glare was met with a simple smirk. "Now, now, Naruto-san. Let's talk about this before you say such things. Are you open to that?" He nodded his compliance. "Excellent, Tell me, what is your dream?"

"I'm going to be the Hokage! Believe it!" his excitement was obvious.

She smiled, "That's a very big dream, but you have the tools to reach it." Naruto beamed. "However, isn't there an ex-teammate of yours who you claim that you will not take the role of Hokage before saving?"

"Sauske…" Blue eyes grew dark at the mention of his friend.

She paused for a moment, "Now, he is with the pedophile snake man. Tell me what happened the last time you fought him?"

The boy flinched at the memory. "I lost control."

Her eyes softened, "That's a hard thing to experience."

"How would you like it if you could be in control?" She turned slightly, giving him a better view of her left arm. "Do you see this?" she questions as she pointed to the collection of lines. He nodded, "This is my seal. It's how Aisu remains safely locked away." Here the strange female paused. "The difference betwixt us, is that I am a master of my fox and you – you are merely the container for yours."

Well? Like it? Love it? Hate it? Let me know if you want this to be continued or if it should be burried deep underground, never to rise and the absolute worst few minutes of your life was taken up in reading this.
