After my encounter with ZEUS I landed in Konoha.  It was a beautiful place . A pleasant soft wind hit me as I walked through the lanes . I have no idea how I look because my hands and feet totally resemble to anime characters . I need to find a mirror more importantly Where should I head out ? It's confusing here and I thought I knew Konoha well after watching all of the episodes sincerely . Huh... 

She kept walking and reached the  Hokage's office. She didn't realise that she was much closer to the Uchiha territory . Going to the Hokage's office wasn't a good idea so she explored a little . Naruto came out of nowhere and waved at her from a distance .

"Hey Maena ! What's up ? What are you doing here ? "

Wait Naruto knows me but how ? So that means I exist normally like everyone else but then I need to think of a way to know about myself .

"Uh... Hi Naruto . I was just roaming around . What about you ?"

"I was heading towards Ichiraku's.  Why don't you join me for Ramen.  Today is a day off!  no academy ! So cool ya know ! "

I see so today is a day off . Judging from the way Naruto called me I'm supposed to be the same age as him . He isn't wearing a headband that means we are yet to graduate . Hmmm ...this clears my doubts to an extent . If I stay with him may be I'll get to know other things as well .

"Sure Naruto ! I would love to ." I give him a closed eye smile and walk along with him . Talking to him made me happy . It was like a dream . We take 2 ramen bowls as  Naruto enjoys having it .

"Ichiraku has the best ramen in the whole world . Hehe. .." I wonder why ZEUS meant by saying that I could change the plot . Of that's the case how can I do it .

"That's a nice bag you got there Maena . It will sure come in handy during our missions ." He says and I observe the straps of my bag on my shoulders . Crap I was so excited that I didn't even think about taking a look at it . I wonder what's there inside it .

"Thanks Naruto . " We both finish our bowls . I excuse myself saying that I have an important errand to run and rush towards the academy . It was getting dark. I tried to sneak in but unfortunately all of the gates and doors were locked so I used one of the windows and jumped on  the desks . It was a perfect place . Nobody would notice me and I wouldn't get caught . I sighed and opened my bag . There were many things ..Some kunai some shurikens. .Some paper bombs and other ninja tools . Beneath everything there was a console inside a box . I took it and switched it on . I had to press my index finger on the space given .

It said and I unlocked it the next thing made the ends of my hair stand . I was shocked .

Welcome Maena Uchiha .

My eyes shook . I couldn't believe . The home screen  had a lot of applications. One was to call ZEUS to talk if we had any doubts . I was relived I had finally found a way to know about me . Wish I had done this earlier . An icon on the top left corner said 'About me ' I clicked it . A new page opened amd I began reading the content .

Maena Uchiha . You are a 12 year old girl who studies alongside your friends Naruto,  Sakura , Hinata, Ino Shikamaru and the others you know them well . Though physically you are 12 your mind is still of an 18 year old girl . This will remain in every Sekai you enter . Your father was killed in action during a mission. Obito Uchiha is your elder brother who died under the rubble during the battle of the kanabi bridge . Kakashi and Rin survived hence they are now jonin.  You live with your mother along with Sasuke's family . Fugaku Uchiha Sasuke's  father is your maternal uncle hence that makes Sasuke and Itachi your cousins . We have given you some tools . You might run out of it so purchase in any of the ninja tools shop . As for Naruto his parents are alive . Minato sealed half of the Kyubi's chakra in Naruto and the other Kushina sealed within her . Minato is the current Hokage. You have about 3 months to graduate from the academy . The identity of the other human is unknown . You might be able to meet him or her . We cannot give you the location it's against our rules. Other stuff you can get to know by staying in the place . Your chakra type is Fire and Lightning . You have awakened your Sharingan  and same goes for Sasuke and Itachi . Other things remain same except for the 3 wishes you made. There is a map too in case you are lost . Well that's all we have for now . Please enjoy your stay in Naruto Sekai .

Wishing you good luck

ZEUS and team .

Oh my god . Some of the things are unbelievable . I see so Naruto has his parents and Uchiha clan massacre didn't happen . Wait a sec that's what u asked him to do . Before I entered this place ZEUS asked me to for any 3 wishes which I want him to fulfill . The first one was for Minato and Kushina to be alive .... second was to avoid the massacre ... what was the third one ? Damn it ! How can I even forget it . No way ... what was it ....

She runs her fingers through her hair and tries to remember but couldn't . She just hoped it was to avoid the final fight between Naruto and Sasuke . There were just far too many things to avoid . 3 wishes were very scanty for her . No matter what circumstances were Naruto and Sasuke's fight was destined to happen . That's the least of all things she wanted to see. She arranged everything back and came out of the academy. She kept walking until she was called from behind .

"Maena ? " She turned behind to look . It was Sasuke along with a beautiful lady . She had long black hair and wore a normal light purple dress similar to Sakura's.  She had a dango  stick in her mouth . Her headband was wrapped around her forehead . Sasuke kept his hands in his pockets . They stood in the middle of a chaotic street having food stalls and various markets on either sides .

"What are you doing here Maena ? This late ! "

"Ah ! Well Naruto wanted me to have Ramen with him so .... I was just returning home ."

"That's great Maena . I too wanted to hangout to have some dango but unfortunately Itachi was busy like always so I dragged hos little brother along with me but since he doesn't has much of a sweet tooth I had to have everything alone . He is so boring .."

"Shut up Izumi!  You were the one who forced me to come . Jeez .. you should have waited for Itachi then .."

"Uh... that would be a total waste of time . Anyways I  better get going . See you Maena . Bye Sasuke"

She was energetic and cheerful . She waved at them and walked away. Maena noticed the  Uchiha's symbol on her back . 

Uchiha? Izumi ....Uchiha ..? Itachi ...no way ! She is that  Izumi . Wow I'm so happy . She is alive this is so nice it's all because of my wish ! I guess shisui must be alive too then ... I'm sure this will not create any such incident again .

"What are you grinning at Maena ? " Sasuke gave her a confused look as she straightens herself.

"No no.. nothing at all . Let's go home " She smiles . They both reach home . Everyone were waiting for them to have dinner together . It was one of the most important rules in the Uchiha family .

Fugaku was the same . Expressionless face , decent in manners and a strict father but this family was sweet and kind . All they wanted was respect and dignity that was all Madara once strives for . Well I used to call them casually like Fugaku and Mikoto but it's not the case now I most address then as uncle and  Aunty . Mom was pretty .. I went to my room . It was similar to the one I had in my home . I hope my replica is doing well . We decoded to name her M2 . Right next to my bed was a picture of my family .Obito was my brother . I still find it hard to believe that he is dead although I'm not sure . My third wish is still a mystery I wonder what I asked for . Besides I'm even more worried as someone else is also present here who came before me . I wonder who that is and I'm pretty sure their 3 wishes have been fulfilled as well . I wonder what they wished for . Well all Naruto fans wish better .. For good to happen so may be they asked for something good as well . I shouldn't worry so much . Most of all I'm super happy to be with Sasuke . The man who is my all time favourite character . My first crush . Whom I admire so much . Unfortunately some people fail to understand him but I'll show them what he truly is . Come to think of it there are a many people I wanna meet .

Maena relaxes for a bit and then rushes ti the dining room . Miyuki her mother prepares Sasuke's favourite dish .

"The dish is fabulous Aunty . Thank you so much "

"You are welcome dear . Well I'm not that good at cooking like your mom .."

"Oh common Miyuki what are you saying ? I learnt so many things from you "

"Big brother ..Big Sis  Izumi came by a few hours ago . Apparently she wanted to have dango with you but instead she took me with her . "

"Oh .. I actually told her that I would be free tonight but....
something came up.  I must apologise her for that . "

"Yup ....you should . "

Itachi is cool . I wonder if they both are seeing each other ... Nah ! Itachi is not someone who would express his feelings but may be Izumi ... no no .. The Uchiha's don't pay attention to that stuff but I have to say Izumi is bold . They are really cute !

The Dinner was silent except for the words the brothers spoke . Everyone went back to sleep and Maena gazed at the beauty of the night sky . Anime world was sure beautiful . Her wish came true ..she felt herself lucky . Next day she woke up early one of the strives rules in the Uchiha family . They had to be on the table for breakfast exactly at 8 in the morning . She was not quiet used to it .

"We are leaving ..." Maena says as she walks out with Sasuke . Itachi had to attend a meeting with his father so he went with him .  It was a beautiful day and they both walk to the academy . Sasuke sits in a corner next to the window and Maena sits next to him much to add to the  jealousy brewing among the girls .

"Hi Sasuke . " Sakura blushes as she says and Ino pushes her giving her greetings . Sasuke sighed as it wasn't just the two but most of the girls in the class liked Sasuke . Well that couldn't be avoided since he had such good looks . He was handsome and the way he talked and behaved was cool . He didn't like to hurt their emotions so he just kept quiet . After all he couldn't answer to every single girl who came . He wasn't interested in anyone but as a friend he cared about everyone . Naruto instead liked Sakura  but  she wouldn't pay any attention to him . It was the same people disliked Naruto since he had the Kyubi who was responsible for Konoha's  destruction 12 years ago bit they wouldn't say him anything as he was the Hokage's son . Kushina helped Minato and also trained students at the academy . Naruto hated the way girls treated Sasuke . Maena stood up since she didn't wanted the girls to hate her.

"Where are you going ? " Sasuke looked at her retina his hands on the desk which were folded under his chin . " Isn't this where you sit everyday ? "

Oh my god ! I shouldn't so things like these . May be I should sit  here if this is my regular place . I hope the girls don't hate me for this .

"No where just looking for Iruka Sensei! " Just then Iruka Sensei enters and everyone take their seats . Naruto sits with Shikamaru and Choji .A girl with black hair sits next to Maena . She had two fine buns on both sides and straight bangs . She was pretty wearing a pink top .

Wait I know her ... but that's impossible . How can she be with is ?

"Hey Maena ! Good morning  ." She smiles .

Ten ten ....

Her eyes widen . Lips begin to tremble . She wants able to understand . She was scared if that was her 3 wish . She begged and tried to recall but in vain . She was worried about the future . What was the meaning of all that she wondered .
