Who Are You?

Chapter 1 An Easy Mission

"Come on you old Hag, why do we have to do such an easy mission." companied a 16 year old Gennin named Naruto Uzumaki.

"Come on Naruto we need a break after the mission we had saving Gaara and seeing Sasuke again not to mention the attack on the village by the 12 guardians." said his 16 year old pink haired teammate Sakura Haruno.

"But still a simple robber bandit mission." said Naruto "How am I going to become Hokage with only easy missions like that."

"Please Naruto it is just an easy mission." said Sakura "Everyone needs a break and Sai's arm is still not totally heal."

"Now Captain Yamato you will head out at once." said Tsunade "Locate who ever is attacking the traders."

"Fine, I guess the sooner we get this done the sooner I can have a real mission." said Naruto

"Alright meet at the gate in a hour." said Captain Yamato

An hour later Sai, Naruto, Sakura and Captain Yamato walked down the road toward the sight of most of the robbers near wave.

"So why are they sending us to go after some robber?" asked Naruto

"Maybe because of the fact the guy appears in a ball of blue light and disappears in one." said Sakura "Didn't you read the mission statement?"

"Mission statement?" asked Naruto

"You know it tells us about what we can expect on a mission?" said Sakura

"Yes, also this person always steals only one diamond in a caravan full of diamonds." said Sai "Weird for a robber isn't it?"

"So we have a wield robber with a flair for drama." said Naruto as he placed his hands behind his head. "So how are we going to find this robber?"

"By going after his target, the diamonds and a large shipment of diamonds crossing our land now it already has guards but their job it to protect the cargo, we want the thief." explained Yamanto

It took only two hours to reach the mission sight a large hill overlooking not only one but three major roads.

"I see them." said Naruto as a large well guarded line of carts came around a bend in the road and down the path toward them.

"And I see our target." Said Sai as a blue ball of light appeared near the caravan.

"Lets go." said Yamanto as they started to move down into position. However the sound of battle filled the air. "The guards must have engaged the thief."

"Then what are we waiting for!" yelled Naruto as he charged forward.

"Naruto come back we need to see what is going on!!!!" yelled Sakura

"Give him cover." said Yamanto as the team moved forward.

Naruto burst though the tree line and into a small meadow. There where two people engaged in combat. One was an older man maybe in his late 30's early 40's. He had bright red hair; he was dressed in black Jonnin uniform with a sound headband. However the sound headband had a slash through it, he was a missing ninja. The other one was a young girl about the same age. For a brief moment Naruto actually thought it was Sakura who was fighting however this girl was maybe an inch or two taller then Sakura. She was dressed in an orange T-shirt with the sleeves just covering her shoulders and black part of shorts. One her feet where a pair of boats that went all the way up to her knees. Naruto could make out a short digger attached to the side of one of the boat. She held a kunai in her gloved hands and on her forehead resting between her median length blonde hair and deep blue eyes was a leaf headband.

"You shouldn't have gotten in my way little girl." said the man

"Oh shut up!" yelled the girl as she threw the kunai, the man just side stepped the attack.

"And here I thought you where from a legendary family." said the man.

"I am." said the girl as she disappeared in a puff of smoke. The man looked back toward the kunai that was thrown a moment ago just in time to see it turn into the girl.

"Take this!" she yelled as she pulled her fist back blue chakra dancing around the fist. At the last moment the man forced the punch into the ground. The blow caused a massive creator almost the same size of anything he had seen Sakura do.

"Wow." said Naruto as the girl turned and looked at him just as Sakura, Sai and Yamanto came crashing out of the tree line. The girl's eyes became as wide as dinner plate.

"How in the world?" asked the girl

"Did you forget what I can do?" asked the man as he jumped back running though hand signs. "Have a nice day."

"Stop!!!!" yelled the girl as the man disappeared in a flash of blue light. "No!"

"Who are you?" asked Naruto as he walked up to the girl putting his face within inches of hers.

"Will you back off." said the girl "You're kind of in my personal space."

"Sorry about that, Naruto can be a baka." said Sakura as she pulled Naruto back, the girl seamed to suddenly smile.

"But who are you?" asked Sai

"Yes, we are the only Leaf ninjas assigned to this mission." said Captain Yamanto

"Ya, and you didn't go to school with us." said Naruto as he studied the girl again.

"That doesn't mean anything Naruto we didn't even know Sai until before our mission." said Sakura

"I too do not know here." said Sai

"So what is your name?" asked Naruto

"ummm…."

"It isn't that hard what is your name?" asked Naruto

"Kushina." said the girl

"Now why don't we know you?" asked Naruto

"I can't tell you." said Kushina

"Then you will explain it to our Kage." said Yamanto as he did a quick wood style and tied Kushina's hands.

"Do we have to you tie her up?" asked Sakura

"Sakura we don't know who she is, she could be an enemy trying to pass off as a Leaf ninja." said Yamanto "You can search her for anything telling us who she really is."

"No." said Sakura "She hasn't done anything wrong yet, we should trust her until she gives us a reason not to."

"I will search her." said Sai as both Sakura and Kushina glared at him.

"There is no way I am letting any male do a body search of a young woman!" yelled Sakura "We will do it at the leaf and only if Lady Tsunade says so."

"Very well." said Yamanto

The way back to the leaf was strange to say the lest, Kushina wouldn't say a word however she kept looking at Naruto and Sakura.

"I wonder why she keeps looking at us Sakura-Chan?" whispered Naruto

"My book says that when a person looks at someone their own age a look they have a crush on them." said Sai as he looked at his book on interpersonal relationship.

"So she has a crush on me?" asked Naruto with a grin "Too bad Sakura and I together."

"We are not together you idiot!" yelled Sakura as Kushina and Yamanto turned and looked.

"Sorry Sakura but Sai said." Said Naruto

"I said judging from the fact that Kushina keeps looking back that she may have a crush on either you or Sakura." explained Sai as Kushina's eyes widened

"Wow…I don't go that way." said Sakura

"Same here, Sai is a big idiot." said Kushina "And besides I have a boyfriend back home."

"So where is home?" asked Yamanto

"I……can't say." said Kushina

"Very well you will have to explain to the Hokage." said Yamanto as they turned a bend in the road only to see the Leaf Village in the distance. "And that shouldn't be long."

True to his words in less then twenty minutes they found themselves standing before Lady Tsunade and Shizune.

"Captain Yamanto is this the thief?" asked Tsunade as she looked at the young girl.

"Unknown she was going battle with the man who matches the profile of the thief but she has a leaf headband and refuses to tell us anything more then her name, Kushina." Explained Yamanto

"I see, so who are you?" asked Tsunade

"I'll tell you but under one condition." Said Kushina

"You are not in a spot to make demands." Said Tsunade

"Please." Said Kushina

"Not before you tell us why you have a Leaf Headband?" said Tsunade

"I got it the day I graduated from school." said Kushina

"But you where not in our grade." said Sakura

"I never said I graduated with you." said Kushina "

"Where are you going with this?" asked Tsunade

"The reason why you guys don't know me is because I have not been born yet." said Kushina as the others just blinked. "That blue light everyone sees before the thief strikes is a justu a time travel justu."

"So you're from the past?" asked Naruto

"Future." said Kushina "Around 20 years it seams in the future."

"WHAT?" asked Tsunade "That is impossible."

"I will tell you more but please clear the room, the less people who know everything the more protected the future I come from is from harm." Said Kushina

"Very well." said Tsunade "Everyone but Yamanto and Shizune will clear the room. Is that ok with you?"

"That is fine Lady Hokage." said Kushina

"Move it." Yelled Tsunade as Sai, Sakura, Naruto and the ANBU guards cleared the room. "Now lets start over who are you?"

"Kushina Namikaze." said Kushina

"Namikaze is the name of the 4th Hokage clan." Said Shizune as Kushina nodded "That's impossible the 4th had no kids and he was the last of his clan."

"Wrong, he had a son just before his death." said Kushina

"And your this son's daughter?" asked Tsunade

"Yes." said Kushina

"Ok why where you attack by this thief?" asked Tsunade

"He is after rare diamonds in order to do some justu of some kind." said Kushina "I have a rare diamond necklace. That he wants, I'll show it too you as soon as Captain Yamanto frees my arms."

"Do it." ordered Tsunade as the wood disappeared. Kushina rubbed her hands where the wood used to be. Slowly she reached up to her neck and pulled a necklace off. It was a green stone with two silver balls on it.

"The Necklace of the 1st Hokage?" asked Shizune stunned to see it. Even Tsunade was stunned to see her old necklace. Kushina held it out before placing it in Tsunade's palm.

"How can you have this?" asked Tsunade

"It was given to me when I learned the Rasengan." Said Kushina

"Naruto wouldn't just give this away to anyone….who are you?" asked Tsunade as Kushina smiled.

"You still haven't figured it out have you Grandma Tsunade?" asked Kushina

"Grandma….I wouldn't let anyone call me that." Said Tsunade

"Tell you what I'll give you a hint." said Kushina "Lets just say you always told me I look like my mother but with my father's color hair and eyes."

"It can't be." said Tsunade as she looked at the girl; really studied her how she couldn't see it before. Yamanto's eyes widened as well as he figured it out

"My God." said Shizune "Your Naruto's and Sakura's daughter."

"Ya, I am the daughter of the 7th Hokage Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze and the head doctor of the Leaf Sakura Namikaze." said Kushina

Now I hope you liked this first chapter, this will be a shorter story then my normal amount of 30. I am planning it to be around 10 to 15 chapters long but I feel it will still be a good story. Now I hope you keep on reading and keep on reviewing. Thanks Wilkins75.
