'''''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5645686/1/The_Girl_From_Whirlpool The Girl from Whirlpool]''''' is a [[Naruto]] prequel fanfic by [https://web.archive.org/web/20131003140521/http://www.fanfiction.net/u/524424/SilverShine SilverShine]. It follows the adventures of Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki, Naruto's future parents. It starts as Minato and some of his classmates watch as the refugees from Whirlpool Country arrive in the Leaf Village. Among them is a redheaded tomboy named Kushina Uzimaki who winds up as the new village idiot and one of Minato's eventual friends.
 
The story was started as an attempt to create a backstory for the characters before it was originally provided in canon. However what is really amazing about this fanfic is that even after the canon backstory was finally revealed a few months ago, it didn't contradict things too much because the author did a wonderful job incorporating the new information into the plot. What's really notable about this story is that despite its rather overdone story of Naruto's parents falling in love, it avoids making either of them into [[Mary Sue|Mary Sues]], which happens often. It also makes great use of [[Continuity Nod|Continuity Nods]] to events that are mentioned to have happened in the canon's backstory.
