Hazume Kurai Ikuda is a former ninja from the Iwakagure (Village Hidden in the Stones). After being framed for the murder of her clan, she flees. Few years later being discovered by Team 7 she goes to the Konohagakure where her new life begins, with her escort Shikamaru Nara. Many challenges await the young kunoichi as she continues her path as a shinobi. Reader's Note: This is based on the first Naruto series and the villages are named in their Japanese name. I will put what they translate to at the bottom of the page ^.^ Disclaimers: I DO NOT OWN NARUTO, OR ANY OF THE NARUTO CHARACTERS. I ONLY OWN MY CHARACTERS WHICH ARE HAZUME AND HER CLAN AND FAMILY. PLUS SOME OTHER CHARACTERS WHICH WILL APPEAR LATER Thank you, enjoy
