History Fanfic / WhiteRain

* BatmanGambit: Lucia pulls off an impressive one to make sure her son's team is focused for the finals. [[spoiler: [[{{Foreshadowing}} This, and the fact that her sister Cecile did say that Lucia has the potential to threaten Konoha itself, means that she's more than meets the eye.]]

With a young man named Itachi, no less... but this isn't an AlternateUniverse story as one might think upon reading through the first chapter, because as soon as the plot gets rolling, things start happening. As Itachi, his mother Lucia and his sister Rina make their way to Konoha for sanctuary from Gerhard's abuse, everything begins to spiral out of control... and people may not be who they seem to be.

* NotSoFastBucko: Holy crap, Itachi junior activated his Sharingan! He's beating his opponent up! He's gonna win! [[spoiler: Until the jutsu he wanted to use backfires on him terribly, and he gets a slash to an eye.]]

* ParentalNeglect: Amaya's father is wrapped up in his duties to the extent that the only quality time he spends with his daughter is when they're training.

* SnowMeansLove: Itachi (senior) and Lucia met for the last time when it was snowing. [[spoiler: The sight of the snow outside also inspired her to name her inheritance as ''White Rain''.]]

** She does edge into Cloudcuckoolander territory, though.

* ShellShockedVeteran: Sasuke. [[{{Understatement}} Even now, the dude has '''issues''']].

** She does edge into CloudCuckoolander territory, though.

* ShellShockedVeteran: Sasuke.

* WellDoneSonGuy: Itachi seems to be this for his mother Lucia at first (getting into trouble for punching out a classmate who badmouthed her), but gradually grows out of it.

* BetaCouple: Oddly enough, it's Naruto and Hinata.

* RedOniBlueOni: Oddly, '''Naruto''' is the Red to Sasuke's blue. Their respective relationships also have the same distinction - Naruto and Hinata's relationship is subtle and understated just as Sasuke and Sakura's are tempestuous and overt.

* [[spoiler: ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney]]: [[spoiler: Lucia]], but we haven't actually seen her use it.

--->[[spoiler: '''Ibiki:''' He wanted you to pretend that you were ordinary people who loved each other.]]

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Naruto.

* BecomingTheMask: [[spoiler: '''Ibiki:''' He wanted you to pretend that you were ordinary people who loved each other.]]
** And later: [[spoiler: '''Lucia:''' I learned that I may have been in love with your father.]]

* BrokenBird: [[spoiler: Lucia]]

** Naruto uses the Flying Thunder God Technique.

* WhamLine: [[spoiler: '''Rina:''' I can show you how to do Chidori.]]

* {{Squick}}: YourMileageMayVary on this one, but a large part of the chapter where Ibiki explains the mechanics of a BDSM-based relationship probably qualifies.

* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: [[spoiler: Itachi (senior) and Lucia.]]

* BatDeduction: Naruto sees some very slight changes in Sakura's behavior and [[spoiler: asks her if she is pregnant... and ends up being correct.]]

* ChildProdigy: Rina. What do you expect from an Academy student who [[spoiler: figured out how to perform the Chidori simply by watching it?]]

With a young man named Itachi, no less... but this isn't an AlternateUniverse story as one might think at first glance, because as soon as the plot gets rolling, things start happening.

As Itachi, his mother Lucia and his sister Rina make their way to Konoha for sanctuary from Gerhard's abuse, everything begins to spiral out of control... and people may not be who they seem to be.

...and things go on from there. This trope page is chock full of spoilers, so it is probably for the best if you read it '''then''' come back here.

* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Yukio, though he comes around after [[spoiler: nearly taking Itachi's eye in what was supposed to be a harmless bout; Naruto talks some sense into him.]]

* AwLookTheyReallyLoveEachOther: [[spoiler: Itachi (senior) and Lucia.]]

'''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4237746/1/ White Rain]]''' is a {{Naruto}} ContinuationFic by Zapenstap that takes place some time after the series ends... but you wouldn't know it at first glance, because the first chapter is set in a very, very different environment.

With a young man named Itachi, no less... but this isn't an AlternateUniverse story, because as soon as the plot gets rolling, things start happening.

* [[spoiler: ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney]]: [[spoiler: Lucia]], but we haven't actually seen it.

* TrainingFromHell: Itachi goes through it.

* CharacterDevelopment: in '''freaking spades'''.
