(AN: First real crossover fic :D. The plot's in the summary. It'll have some SoulMaka, Black StarTsubaki, KidLiz, NaruSaku, and maybe some others. I'll also throw in some one-sided SasuSaku even through I hate the pairing. It's just impossible to avoid with Sakura's obsession with Sasuke. But don't worry, I won't have him OOC and like her back, that's just… we… OOC XD. Sorry to my other fic readers, but I haven't had access to my other computer, which has all the new chapters on it, and I'm too lazy to rewrite them :P)

Chapter 1: The Mission

"Who's that Grandma Tsunade?"

The corner of the Hokage's mouth twitched, but she ignored the young blond's comment.

"That, Naruto, is your target." Tsunade adressed the three young ninja in front of her. "He's the only living descendant of the Star clan, who formerly ran the Village Hidden in the Stars, but were annihilated by an unknown force. Then again, the village didn't complain much. The Star clan was ruthless. So, needless to say, there have been sightings of him recently and we have requests to have him taken in."

"So where do we even find him?" asked Sasuke, leaning nonchalantly against the wall.

Naruto nodded in agreement. "Yeah, what do we even have on this guy?"

"I've given Sakura the details of the mission. You will head the Death City and take him alive, if possible. Kakashi will not be accompanying you on this mission, so stay on your toes."

"Yes my lady!" said Sakura, saluting. Naruto and Sasuke grunted their acknowledgement and the group strode from the room. Tsunade sat back in her chair. Was it really okay for her to send one of her best squads on this mission? He was only a kid, even if his clan did wreak havoc on the world. He had nothing to do with it. Still, a mission was a mission, no matter how self conflicted she felt.

Tsunade sighed. This is what being hokage meant. And after all, he was the same age as Squad 7.

"Black Star." she said the name aloud. Was he defenseless, or would he know how to fight like his parents had? For some odd reason, she hoped for the latter.

She let out another sigh as she put down the mission scroll.

"Shizune! Get me something to drink!"


Black Star sneezed, making Kid double over, shaking madly due to the contamination of the air.

"You know, in Japan they say that when you sneeze, it means that someone is talking about you." said Tsubaki as he rubbed his nose. His face broke in a wide grin.

"AHAHA! I should have known someone was talking about the great me!"

"Shut up, Black Star." said Soul, worried (though he didn't show it). "Maka's trying to study and I don't want her to get ma-"

A large book collided with his skull and he slumped out of his seat, making Patti point and laugh. Maka simply put her book back down in front of her and kept reading, thoroughly unconcerned with her partner's cranial wellbeing.

"Damn Maka, I wish it were that easy to control Kid." said Liz, laughing almost as hard as her sister.

The group lounged in the living room of the fairly large mansion of Death the Kid, most completely unaware that they were being watched.

"Maka." Kid said with a serious edge as he lifted his head. She turned to look at him and nodded.

"I sensed them too."

Kid sighed as he stood up. "How long?"

"Five or ten minutes at the most. But they're strong, I can feel it." She said, closing her book.

"Yeah, me too."

"What the hell are you guys talking about?" asked Soul as the group stared at their grim-faced friends.

Kid was the first to answer.

"There are three souls outside. They've been watching us."

(AN: Sorry, I know it's short. I'll try to make the next one longer.

PS: Sorry about any grammatical errors, but I did this on my crap computer with a crap keyboard. I'll go over it later, I just want to get this posted for the time being.)
