'Why me? Why me?' a young blonde boy ran through the streets of Konoha. As he ran, a mob of people slowly gained more and more ground on the little boy.
"Die! You demon scum" a man dove at the blonde and was able to grab is leg as the boy was turning the corner, tripping him in the process.
"What did I do?" the blonde yelled at the top of his lungs as the mob slow surrounded him.
"This is for my sister! You murdering Hell spawn!" a woman with a kuni shouted. She than drew the blade across the blonde's arm drawing blood. After the first sight of blood the mob began to kick, punch, and slice the blonde until he passed out from the pain.
"Quick, before the demon wakes up, let's get rid of it once and for all!" a villager with a cigarette shouted as he lifted the broken body of the boy. As he walks to the gates of the village, the boy over is shoulder stirs a little but receives a blow to the head to stop him.
At the gates there stood two people; a man, and a woman: both dressed similarly with leaf village head bands and vest that marked them as chunin and members of Konoha's police unit. They noticed the man and the boy over his shoulder.
"What are you doing?" the female ninja asked the villager. Her eyes shifted to a blood red and she stared at the villager.
"I'm bringing you a gift, the demon brat." He threw the blonde's body to the ground and gave the two ninja a smile. "I was hoping that you could do the town a favor and rid us of it." He spat at the prone form of the little boy on the ground.
"No, problem. We'll deal with …." He was interrupted by a groan. The blonde was able to make out two things before the ninja put his lights out again, the fan on the back of the vest and the cold lifeless blood red eyes of the guards. "…the demon"
"Thank you, you are a great man." The villager smiles and walks back to town with a smile on his face.
The woman goes through a set of hand signs and utters "Kuchiyose No Justu" than slams he hand down on the ground. With a puff of smoke a raven the size of a wagon appears.
"How may I be of service?" the raven bows it's head to the two standing there.
"Kamaitachi, I need you to get rid of the body of this poor creature." The man pointed to the blonde. "Pick any direction and fly for one day than feel free to drop it any where." Kamaitachi ndded grabbed the boy by his shirt and took off flying to the east.
"Hibari, we are going to be hero's for ridding the world of the demon." He turned and smiled at her.

The next day with the Hokage….
"Inu, bring me Naruto. He was suppose to meet me here this morning so I could get him ready for the academy." The dog faced ANBU vanished in a swirl of leaves. The Sandaime Hokage gave a blank look at the stacks of paper that awaited his approval. He made a quick glance around the room to make sure that nobody was anywhere to be seen. He reached into his desk and pull out a small orange book. 'Jaraiya, you are a super perverted master' he thought to himself as he giggled at the book.
"Lord Hokage! Naruto is gone!" Inu had returned a half an hour later to hind the elderly Hokage passed out on the ground from a nosebleed. The dog faced ANBU walked over to find the leader of the village hugging a bright orange book that Inu found very familiar. "Lord Hokage!"
"What Happened? Why am I on the ground?" The Hokage took a look at he book in his arms a gave the ANBU a slight chuckle. Inu than reached into his weapons pouch and pulled out the same book and gave the elderly man a giggle. "Ok, where is Naruto?"
Inu scratched the back of his head "He is missing" the old man shot a death glance at the dog masked man.
"GONE?!" His face turned red with anger. The little boy that he saw as a second grandson was missing and all the ANBU ninja could do was sit there and scratch his head like a monkey in a tree. "Inu, I want you to bring me every guard that was on duty and Naruto's watchers." A stiff bow from the young ANBU and he was gone. "How does a hyper seven year old just vanish?"
Twenty minutes later, the Hokage's office was filled almost to the brim with ninja. They all had the same look of confusion on their faces, except two Konoha officers who were almost shinning from the night before.
"OK, Naruto is missing and at least one of you knows what happened" He glanced at each of the people in the room. "wait here I will send Ibiki in a few seconds." The entire room started sweating, Ibiki, head of torture and interrogation was the meanest SOB that has ever been brought into the department.
As the door creaked open Ibiki started calling name after name to join him in the next room.

With Naruto
"OW! My head hurts" Naruto stands up and looks around the forest for some sign of where he was. "Stupid villagers! What did I do to them?" He begins to walk hoping that Konoha will be right through the trees like it was the last time the villagers throw him out.
Behind him there is a rustle in the trees and out walks a girl no older than six or seven years old. She races over to Naruto hoping that he is alright. Naruto seeing the young girl run at him does what any other person would do when they havwe been attacked by mobs for the majority of their life; curls into the fetal position and prays to Kami.
The girl is kind of miffed about a boy her age being scared of her. "Hey, are you Ok?" the girl nudges the blonde with a stick that was laying on the ground.
"Please don't hurt me!" Naruto sprang off of his spot on the ground and ran head first into a tree. The girl giggled at his antics, she walked over to the blonde to find him out cold from the run in with the tree.
"Haku, what are you doing?" a tall man dressed in Kiri Jounin with white bandages around the lower half of his face. "Who is the gaki? A new boyfriend?" Haku blushed and the man got a good laugh out of the girl's embarrassment.
"No, Zabuza" She nudged Naruto a little trying to wake him up. "I was looking for some food and I found this blonde boy." Haku stood back up and walked back to Zabuza's side.
"Well what happened? He's out cold." Haku started explaining what happened since she walked into the clearing where she found Naruto. "So you mean you just stood there and he cowered in fear?" Haku gave a little nod and walked back to the blonde to carry him back to their camp.
"Zabuza, he has the same look in his eyes that I had when you found me" a sad look flashed across Haku's face as she walked back to the camp where she and Zabuza where hiding. "Also with him here you can finally have an apprentice to you sword techniques" Zabuza's eyes lit up at that thought because he refused to teach Haku the sword because she was so much better with thrown weapons.
… Half an hour later
"Not again!" Naruto had woken up from his little nap and Zabuza and Haku where there waiting for him to come to. "Who are you guys?"
"Well gaki, I'm Zabuza Momochi and this…"he pointed a Haku "is Haku Momochi, my adopted daughter." Haku gave Naruto a slight bow.
"I'm Naruto Uzumaki, the Next Hokage." The blonde struck a pose. At this Zabuza broke down in laughter. "What is so funny?" the blonde started pouting.
"Kid, do you have any idea where you are?" Zabuza gave Naruto a stern look.
"Yea, about and hours walk outside of Konoha" Naruto flashed them his fox grin. Zabuza and Haku both shook their heads, 'Haku must be warm her face is all red'. "Where am I then?" Haku pulled out a map and showed Naruto that they were about two days walk from the Village Hidden in the Leaves.
"So gaki you have two choices; one is travel with me and Haku and learn to be my too… sword style, or you can walk back o the village that tried so hard to get rid of you. The choice is yours." Zabuza walked back to his tent and began to care for his sword.
"So, Haku, you're an ninja?" Naruto walked over to Haku and sat down. Haku sat outside her tent with a scroll reading. "Whatcha reading?"
"Naruto!" Haku gave a little jump. "I'm reading about the pressure points on the body incase I need to take someone out with my senbon" Haku reached in to her sleeve and pulled out a think metal needle. "Not all that deadly but they work very well for disabling a opponent." Haku placed the needle in Naruto's hand. "Take it."
"Why? Don't you need it?" Haku shook her head and pressed the needle into the palm of his hand.
"Friends?" Naruto looks at her a little weird. Never in his life has anyone ever offered to be his friend, so what else would a kid who is strarved for attention do? He nodded, then threw himself into a hug with Haku. Haku just sat there in a full body blush. Naruto pulled himself off his friend and walked over to Zabuza.
"Zabuza-sensei, may I please join you and Haku in your travels? I give you my word I will be the best student I can be" Naruto gave a bow and waited for his answer.
"Sure, but the name fish cake has to go. No one will take you seriously with that name, from this day on you shall be Kenji Uzumaki." Zabuza placed a hand on the blonde's shoulder. "Come on you have a long day ahead of you, Kenji"

With the Hokage … six months after Naruto vanished
The Hokage stood in front of every current leafnin, "Ok, from this day forward all of you have a mission. When ever you are out of the village you will be on the look out for Naruto Uzumaki." He handed each ninja a picture of the blonde. "You are to bring him back here alive and unharmed, understood?" A chorus of "HAI" could be heard for a block in each direction.
As the ninja began to leave Danzou, Homura, and Koharu approach the elderly hokage. "Lord Hokage, this is pointless let the Kyuubi die out there in the wild" Danzou, who never understood why the third Hokage didn't let him turn Naruto into the perfect weapon, stated flat out.
"Danzou, you are under arrest. Inu send him over to Ibiki." The dog faced ANBU grabbed the cripple's arm and began to pull him towards the room where Ibiki was waiting.
"Sarutobi! What is the meaning of this?" Homura questioned.
"This man has refused to follow direct orders from not one but two Hokage. The continuation of the ROOT program under his command alone, both the Yondaime and myself have ordered its destruction. For that, this old SOB gets his own time with Ibiki." The Sandaime did a little victory dance in his head.
"What evidence do you have?" the one eyed war hawk asked.
"I have a entire folder stuffed with info on your little group" the Sandaime smirked.
Danzou's face was red with pure rage. "ROOT!" Danzou yelled and not a second later Inu was surrounded by un marked hunter ninja all ready to strike. The Hokage gave a little wave to the crowd full of ninja that had stopped to watch the commotion.
"Thank you, Danzou. You just gave me all the evidence I needed to kill you right now."
"CHIDORI" Inu's hand ran though Danzou's chest.
The Hokage made a glance around the Root ninja that had him surrounded "Well, what are you going to do?' With that all the Root Nin took out their tantos and killed themselves. "Crap! Stop one!" Inu grabbed a root nin just as he was about to end her life.
"Please let me die!" the girl yelled at the top of her lungs. "The base is under Danzou's Apartment, now please let me end my life with my master" She tried to thrust the tanto into her heart again but Inu was able to grab it and pocket it before she could complete her task.
"Sorry, but I need you to be able to answer some questions." The old Hokage help pick the girl up off the ground and into his office.

With Kenji
"Suiton: Teppoudama" A bullet of water shot at Kenji who was laying on the ground fast asleep. "Wake Up, Gaki."
Kenji snapped wake just in time to see a blob of water hit him square in the face. "Damm, Mizu Bunshin No Justu" An group of Kenjis fell into ranks and charged Zabuza.
While this happened Haku took her time making a small breakfast for both her father, and brother. 'Here we go again" Haku shook her head. She glanced at Kenji, taking in the changes that had happened over the last six months.
After Zabuza beat the hyperness out of the poor kid, he was slowly becoming a great assent to the other two people that had found him in the forest. Long gone was the bright orange because both Haku and Zabuza agreed that it shouted 'KILL ME! KILL ME!'. He now sported a pair of black cargo pants, a dark blue t-shirt with a white fox on it and a black vest. On his feet he wore the normal ninja sandals, and to cover the bright blonde hair he had it tied under a black bandana with a small ponytail coming out the back (A/N: Yea, I suck at clothing, so forgive me).
The daily routine of the three was always the same. Zabuza Justus Kenji awake, they fight and Haku makes breakfast. Then they all eat and Zabuza and Haku discuss what was wrong with Kenji's fight, Kenji then goes off on some rant. He and Haku span to increase speed and stamina. Then every other day Haku teaches Kenji throwing weapons or Zabuza drills sword styles into his skull. Someone makes dinner, and then go to bed.
"BREAKFAST" Haku yells and in an instant both men are sitting waiting for some of Haku's food.
"Haku, you make the best food EVER!" Kenji places his wooden sword down on the ground. 'next to ramen that is'.
"He's right." Zabuza patted his daughter on the head. 'Next to pocky' Zabuza smirks underhis wrapps. A little picture of him dumping Kenji's ramen on the ground while he was tied to a tree stump made the demon of the bloody mist giggle like anyone who has ever read the novel Icha Icha.
