Naruko groaned as she heard her alarm clock going off.
Ugh, stupid thing shut up. I was having such a great dream. Naruko thought believing everything she just saw was only a dream, barely taking notice of how her alarm sounded louder than usual.
Covering her head with her pillow to block out the blaring alarm. Naruko finally got tired and shot up out of bed while bringing her fist down on the accursed device. Though to the girl's surprise she ended up smashing the clock into pieces.
Woah, how did I do that? Naruko thought looking at her fist in amazement not seeing a scratch on her
Getting up Naruko looked down in sadness recalling the dream she had. It was the best one she's ever had, meeting her Kaa-chan, finding out she was also the daughter of the Kyuubi, and being able to know they loved her. Unfortunately like all dreams it had to end.
"I don't think so sweetheart." Tamamo said, making Naruko's head shoot up looking around in shock and hope
"Mom." Naruko said not seeing anyone
"We're still here, Naru-chan. I told you we'd always be here for you." Said Kushina, Naruko realizing they were in her mind
That means… IT WASN'T A DREAM!
You're really here, this isn't just my mind playing tricks on me? Naruko mentally asked
"Yes we're here sweetie." Answered Tamamo
This made Naruko smile brightly that she really had met her parents, her Kaa-chan and her mom, that it wasn't a dream. She finally had a family!
Getting out of bed Naruko stumbled a little when she felt her feet touch the floor faster than normal. Looking down Naruko was surprised to see she stood several inches taller than last night and her pajamas felt tighter than normal.
Especially my shirt. Naruko thought tugging at the clothing before hearing her mom giggling mischievously instantly setting Naruko on edge since it reminded her of whenever she pulled a prank
And given her mom was a Kitsune, a trickster Yokai, Naruko was right to be worried.
"Oh don't worry it's nothing dangerous, we just got rid of the seal hiding your true appearance and I must say you have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of." Tamamo said before Kushina smacked her upside the head
"Stop trying to corrupt our daughter!"
"I'm not trying to corrupt her I'm just… helping her embrace her Kitsune side." Tamamo said in her defense
While Naruko couldn't see her, she just knew her mom's eyes were shifting about.
Going to her bathroom Naruko looked in the mirror to see her true appearance. Though once she saw herself she only had one thought.
Damn.
Naruko would be the first to admit she hadn't exactly been what one would call a looker, next to a few other girls in the Academy. She had been short, her hair had been a spiky mess, her curves were practically non-existent, and her chest a low B-cup.
Now however she stood three inches taller, just over five feet, her once spiky bright blonde hair was now a smooth crimson red that went down to her heart shaped backside, her skin lost its light tan and was now the matching fairness of her mothers, she had curves most women would kill for, and her chest was now high C-cup and low D-cup. Her whisker marks also became more jagged, her canines elongated into fangs, her nails lengthened into claws, and her eyes were a swirling mix of violet and crimson with slit pupils like her mom.
Wow. That's… me. Naruko thought in amazement as she spun in front of the mirror
"Damn right it is! Female Yokai are regarded as the most beautiful in the world and known to mature at a young age, and to think you'll grow more beautiful as you get older." Tamamo said proudly
Well now that I'm complaining mom, but how exactly am I going to explain my new appearance? Naruko asked
Knowing the villagers they'll believe the "Kyuubi is breaking free" once they see her or they'll do other less pleasant things to her.
"If they touch you I will slaughter them down to the last child." Kushina said viciously since anyone that touched her daughter in such a way will beg for death after she's done
"Don't worry, you can just shape-shift back to your regular appearance, just concentrate and it'll happen." Tamamo instructed
Nodding Naruko closed her eyes and began concentrating on her former appearance. After a moment she opened her eyes and staring back at her was her former blonde, blue-eyed self.
"You can also change back by doing the same or alter your appearance to something entirely different if you want." Tamamo said
Really? Thought Naruko
Testing it Naruko focused and watched as her eyes went through a myriad of different colors, her hair shortened and lengthened to various lengths while also changing color.
"As cute as it is to see you using your powers, Naru-chan, you still need to get to the Academy." Kushina reminded
That got Naruko to stop and immediately take a shower, get dressed, and have breakfast before running out the door to the Academy.
"We're eventually getting rid of those hideous jumpsuits, I mean it." Tamamo said after Naruko got dressed in regular orange jumpsuit
No way was her daughter going around dressed as a walking target.
Reaching the Academy Naruko went to her soon-to-be former class seeing most of the students already there.
"Naruko." Said a female voice getting the Hanyō's attention
Looking, Naruko smiled at who it was. A girl her age, with long jet black hair with a blue tint that went down to below midback, pale skin, obsidian colored eyes, her figure matching Naruko's true appearance, only her bust looked to be mid D-cup. Her attire consisted of black kunoichi sandals, a short white skirt that stopped midthigh, black spandex shorts that went down to just above her knees, a sleeveless navy blue high-collared shirt, and Konoha headband on her forehead.
This was Satsuki Uchiha, Naruko's best friend/rival, not that the Uchiha would ever admit to the former.
They had met a few days after what was now known as the Uchiha Massacre. Naruko had seen Satsuki standing alone on a dock and recognized her from the Academy. Seeing her alone Naruko had walked down and asked Satsuki if she had wanted to hang out only to receive a cold look. But Naruko was nothing if not determined and stayed there next to Satsuki the entire day, and the day after that and the day after that until finally she got Satsuki to talk to her.
While Naruko couldn't understand the extent of Satsuki's pain, your entire family being killed off, and by your brother no less, she at least knew what it was like to be an orphan and being alone, and she wasn't going to let Satsuki experience that pain alone if she could help it. Soon both girls could be seen together all the time enjoying each other's company.
"You passed." Satsuki stated, upon seeing the headband on her friend/rival's forehead, while making sure to hide the relief she felt at this sight.
Though Satsuki would never admit it, she was immensely grateful to Naruko's presence and friendship. Without it she wasn't sure where she would be?
"Yep, Iruka-sensei gave me a retry. So you don't have to worry, Satsuki-chan." Naruko said teasingly
"I wasn't worried! Just pointing out the obvious, if anyone should be worried you should." Said Satsuki dismissively while crossing her arms
Now annoyed by Naruko suddenly appeared crouched on Satsuki's desk glaring at the Uchiha.
"You could at least pretend you're happy we're both Genin." Naruko said, as Satsuki glared right back at her
"Why, it's not something to make a big deal of? We both passed, so what?" Retorted Satsuki, Naruko growling as she leaned in closer
"Well, maybe if you were happy every once in a while, you wouldn't have such a constant bitch face!" Naruko said, Satsuki scowling and closing the distance further
"And maybe, if you were more serious you wouldn't be the deadlast!" Satsuki said
"Yeah well—AAH!" Naruko yelped when she felt someone bump into her as she fell forward
Things went into slow motion for Naruko and Satsuki as they looked at each other with shocked expressions as Naruko fell forward. The next thing both girls knew they felt something soft come in contact with their lips. It took less than a second for them to realize that they were kissing!
But despite the realization neither girl pulled away until they heard several crashes. Immediately pulling apart the girls looked around seeing the majority of the male students unconscious with blood dripping from their noses. Their faces burned bright red that they had just kissed each other in front of everyone. Though their embarrassment didn't last before turning and glaring at the one who pushed Naruko, who just so happened to be Kiba Inuzuka who had turned deathly pale when both girls glared at him.
"Uh… mercy." Kiba squeaked while Akamaru whimpered to afraid to try running
"DIE MUTT!" Naruko and Satsuki shouted demonically as they tackled the canine Genin
"Where is he?!" Shouted Sakura Haruno wondering where their sensei was
After Naruko and Satsuki had beaten Kiba into a bloody pulp for making them lose their first kiss in such a way, Iruka had shown and listed all the teams off. Naruko and Satsuki were both happy to have been put on the same team, though the latter wouldn't say it out loud, though unfortunately they had Sakura as their third teammate. Neither girl hated the pinkette; they just found her annoying for not taking being a ninja seriously and she was too loud.
Once Iruka had finished listing the teams the Jonin sensei had shown up, with Naruko and Satsuki a certain amount of pride that Kiba needed to be carried out by his teammates, until Team Seven was left with their sensei, Kakashi Hatake, still not showing up.
Though currently Naruko and Satsuki were focused on wondering where their sensei was, neither girl had been able to look at the other after their accidental kiss.
"I think Satsuki-chan would make a good mate for you, Naru-chan. Mikoto and I sometimes even joked about you two ending up together." Kushina said, Naruko blushing at her Kaa-chans words
Wait, you and Satsuki's Kaa-san know each other? Naruko mentally asked
"Oh we knew each other, very intimately." Tamamo purred
… What? Squeaked Naruko
"Mikoto was, I guess you could say, a friend-with-benefits before she was married. The things she could do, if Satsuki inherited any of her talent then I can guarantee you will be in for a very good time Naru-chan!" Kushina said, Naruko's blush and mortification growing
What?! How?! Why?! Naruko thought
"It was actually really simple, Kushina either made a clone that I took control of or Mikoto would enter her mindscape with the Sharingan. She was actually one of the few Uchiha I tolerated and one of the fewer I liked." Tamamo said
"Besides you can't lie and say you didn't enjoy the kiss and from what he felt from Satsuki she hadn't been opposed to it either. So go for it sweetie stake your claim!" Kushina cheered
Naruko covered her face to hide how red it was, not believing her mothers was trying to set her up with her friend/rival.
Though… Naruko couldn't deny that part of her has always had a crush on Satsuki and the idea of being with her was definitely not something she was opposed to. Looking at Satsuki for several moments until the Uchiha met her gaze instantly making both girls look away but still casting glances at each other.
Suddenly the classroom door opened revealing a man with gravity defying spiky silver hair, wearing the standard Jonin uniform, and most of his face covered by a facemask and his headband covering his left eye.
"Hm, my first impression of you all is… I don't like you." Kakashi said
"Meet me on the roof." Said Kakashi before vanishing in a puff of smoke
Sighing in frustration the three girls made their way to the door. On the way up to the roof Naruko and Satsuki looked at each other from the corner of their eyes before smiling at each other.
Maybe being with her wouldn't be so bad. Naruko thought as the two girls moved closer to each other as they went up to the roof.
