The truth

Chapter 6

Their trip had finally come to an end, and they were exhausted.

They had finally arrived at the land of Whirlpools. They had been awed by the way they had to actually get to the Island which was surrounded by actual whirlpools that wouldn't touch you if you had a specific seal placed on you that pushed them away. The man who took them across also made a comment about having an Uzumaki with them made the waters calmer.

The moment they had set foot on the island they had been ushered towards the village to go see the UzshioKage.

The village they were walking through was bustling with life and vibrant with color.

Naruto noticed how the most prominent symbol in the village was the same as the symbol that his Jiji said represented his clan.

He didn't understand why. His clan was gone, and he was the only one left.

They got to the Kage tower, and they were quickly escorted to her office.

They walked in and the UzshioKage immediately stood up. She has been waiting for them to get here.

The Kage of Uzshio was a very tall woman standing at 6'2 and she was built like a tank. She had blood red hair and bright blue eyes with tanned skin.

As soon as she stood, she used her towering height, and she scanned the faces of the children and their sensei's. Everybody thought she was analyzing them. To see if they were a threat or not.

She wasn't.

"Kon'nichiwa-" Kurenai was cut off by the UzshioKage walking towards them. She made her way through them and walked up to Naruto.

She looked at him and the blonde shrunk into himself.

She just smiled and snatched him up. Sasuke went to growl at her only to hear her exclaiming in glee, "Oh how cute! Just look at you! When they said there was an Uzumaki raised in Konoha I was skeptical at first but look at you! Half Uzumaki and half Senju!"

Everybody was stunned. Even Naruto as he was being swung around.

"Umm lady why do you care that I'm an Uzumaki?" Naruto asked as he tilted his head to the side.

"Oh, you must not know. Growing up in Konoha will do that to you. They have more secrets than people, yes, they do. And look at this. You're wearing the symbol too. Oh, your aunts and Uncles are going to be so happy to know that," she spoke.

"What do you mean? Jiji said that the entire Uzumaki clan was wiped out. How would my uncles and Aunts be proud of me if they died?" Naruto asked.

"Oh, you're Jiji didn't know much then. Some of us survived. We just went into hiding for a bit to recover."

"We?" Naruto asked.

"Yes, we. I am a full-fledged Uzumaki. My full name is Daria Uzumaki. That's why I was so excited about meeting you. It's not every day you find out Mito Uzumaki's great grandson walks among us." She spoke.

"Oh. Sorry." Naruto said.

"Oh, sweetie think nothing about it." She spoke.

"Excuse me Kage-Sama I don't want to break up this family reunion, but we just really need to get to our hotel," Sakura said.

She had been watching this for a few seconds and decided to step in out of irritation.

"Oh actually. You won't be staying in a hotel. Since little Naruto over here is an Uzumaki you will stay with the clan. You will get to stay in one of the main houses. There is enough room so do not worry about that." She spoke.

She put Naruto down, he quickly latched onto Sasuke again, and she walked over to her desk.

She called someone to come and escort them to the compound.

They were quickly led through the village and straight to the compound.

One of the clan members greeted them at the gate and led them to one of the houses in the compound.

It was big and built out of wood. The house was a beautiful red color. The Uzumaki swirl was on the door, outlined in black. There was a front garden with red roses, red begonias, red cone flowers, and yellow daffodils. It was a beautiful sight. a Stone path was laid out and led right to the door. The front yard was green and well taken care of.

Naruto loved it.

The man who led them to the house gave them, or Naruto, the key and told them to get themselves settled.

Naruto quickly ran up the stone path, taking Sasuke with him, and unlocked the door.

The house was Victorian-styled. So, it had the old furniture and the grand glamorous feel to it. Everything looked Victorian. Well except for the arsenic-filled wallpaper, gas valves that couldn't close properly, paint filled with arsenic that was put on toys, and asbestos that would go into your lungs and destroy them.

The entire house was built to look like the Victorian home, just a little bit safer and more modern.

There were picture's that decorated the walls, all of the Uzumaki's who came before, and it was furnished with the most beautiful and comfortable furniture. Well, the part he could see was beautifully furnished.

Naruto immediately took off his shoes and walked further into the house. His house apparently. The man who led them to the house said that by right it belonged to Naruto.

Sasuke followed his lead and took off his shoes as well.

He watched as Naruto was awestruck by the big house.

"It's so pretty," Naruto said.

Shikamaru walked into the living room and said, "Wait till you see the kitchen."

Naruto perked up and said, "Big house, bigger kitchen. Move!" 

He bolted past and almost threw Shikamaru into the wall.

Shikamaru walked up to Sasuke and said, "Keep him busy in there, while I get Sakura to remove her shoes. Naruto sees the dirt she's tracking in he's going to freak." Shikamaru pointed behind Sasuke.

Sasuke turned around and saw that Sakura still had her shoes on and both Temari and Gaara were trying to convince her to take them off.

Sasuke just nodded and walked into the kitchen to see what his blonde beauty could be up too.

Upon entering the kitchen Sasuke saw Naruto admiring the entire room.

Sasuke took Naruto by the waist and put his chin on his shoulder, "Do you like this?" He asked.

"Yes. It's so pretty and so big."

"Do you like cooking?" Sasuke asked.

"Yeah. It's fun. That and Shika say that my baking is good too." Naruto said.

"So, if I got a bigger kitchen, you would come over more often?" Sasuke asked.

"Your kitchen is already big. Why do you want it to be bigger?" Naruto asked.

"Just because..."

"Just because?" Naruto asked.

"Yeah. Just because. Now I'm not eating Kakashi's cooking again. So why don't you show me what you can do in the kitchen? While I go and get our room ready." Sasuke said.

Naruto immediately brightened up at that.

Sasuke kissed him on the cheek and left his blonde to do his thing.

When he walked out of the kitchen, he saw Gaara sitting on top of Sakura, who was being held down by Shikamaru's shadows. Temari pulled Sakura's shoes off and threw them towards the door. Kankuru was busy sweeping up the dirt that she tracked in.

He just shook his head and headed upstairs.
