Pndg: Guess who peoples. It's me, Pndg (rhymes :D) here with mah newest story Naruto: Nine tailed legacy.

Now I have a few warnings about the following story. This is a NarufemHaku/SasuSaku story so if you have a problem with that then turn back. Also, this story's Sakura shall be much better than NSC's, so sorry if you were hoping to see her bashed sorry but it aint happening. Third, I can't promise that this story will be as funny as NSC but that's not to say it won't be as good. In any case I shall try though. Finally, sorry to all the Goku fans but he won't be in this story or mentioned in-story at all. But he will show up in the pre-show convo's along with the NSC crew and vice-versa. But if you want to read about his various shenanigans/adventures/ass whoopings with Naruko, Sasuke, and Hinata then go read NSC. Speaking of the NNTL crew they'll be showing up next chap (in the author's note duh). If you have a problem with any of that then I suggest you go elsewhere. Sorry this chap is so short but my prologues/the first one or two chapters usually are for me. The length will pick in the next few chaps though.

Now finally the disclaimer. I do not own Naruto, or any it's characters, moves, techniques or locations. Well that's about it so ON WITH THE SHOW!

CHAPTER 1: BATTLE ON THE BRIDGE

"Sasuke. Why?" Naruto asked quietly as he cradled his fallen teammate in his arms.

"I don't know. My body just moved on its own." He said back weakly.

"You shouldn't have taken that hit for me! I WOULD'VE SURVIVED!" He yelled out through tears.

"D-Don't be stupid dobe. But there's something I need to ask you to do." He strained out his breath growing shallower with each passing second.

"What is it?"

"The man I wanted to kill." He said causing Naruto's eyes to widen.

"It's my brother. Itachi Uchiha."

"You mean the one who?" Naruto asked in surprise. Did Sasuke really trust him that much?

"Yes, the one who…..murdered my clan."

"I want you to be the one to kill him. You're the only one I can trust to do it now."

"I will I promise. I'll make the bastard suffer." He strained out.

"Good…dobe." Sasuke said quietly as his breath stilled.

"Sasuke? Sasuke! SASUKEEEEEEEEE!" Naruto screamed in agony.

"Is this the first time you've lost a friend?" Haku asked as she slipped back into her mirror.

"…"

"We are ninja, weapons, nothing more."

"Shut up."

"There is always the chance that we or a comrade will die in battle."

"Shut up!"

"If you cannot realize that then you are fighting a worthless war."

"SHUT UUUUUUUUP!" Naruto roared as red chakra exploded out of him.

"I'LL KILL YOU!"

"W-what is he!" Haku thought in horror as Naruto charged her with speed she hadn't thought him possible of.

With Kakashi

"Damn it!" Kakashi cursed as he narrowly dodged another swipe from Zabuza's zanbatou. Even with his sharingan eye he couldn't see through the thick fog the ex kiri nin had summoned.

"What's wrong Kakashi? I figured that almighty eye of yours would at least see through the mist." Zabuza taunted his voice sounding through the mist all around him.

"I need to come up with a strategy soon or eventually he'll get me." He thought as he jumped out of the way of another strike from the nukenin.

His thoughts were cut off however as a powerful wave of demonic chakra swept over them, blowing away the mist in the process.

"What the hell!" Zabuza asked in shock as both his and Kakashi's eyes widened, Zabuza's out of shock and Kakashi's because he had felt this chakra once before.

'It can't be!' He thought in disbelief.

'I have to finish this quickly so I can run damage control.' He thought as he looked over at his opponent who had dropped his guard in shock.

Taking the opportunity he bit his thumb and slammed his hand into the ground.

"Kuchiyose no jutsu!"

Damn it!" Zabuza cursed in anger as several ninhounds shot up out of the ground and bit into his limbs restricting his movement.

"It's not wise to drop your guard during a battle." Kakashi said causing Zabuza to glare heatedly at him.

"You remember I told you your future was death, I wasn't lying, you will die here by my hand." Kakashi said as he stretched his hand towards the ground.

Zabuza's eyes widened in unconcealed horror as lightning gathered in Kakashi's outstretched palm.

Elsewhere

Sakura's eyes widened as she felt the Kyuubi's chakra wash over the bridge.

'W-What's happening in there?' she thought in fear as she looked towards the source of the monstrous chakra; Haku's ice mirrors.

She would have run off to check on her teammates but stopped herself, Sakura may have been a weak fan girl (not bashing, truth) but she certainly wasn't stupid, and she was by no means deluded (not in battle situations anyway). She knew that she wouldn't last five seconds in there.

Then there was the man behind her, the bridge builder Tazuna. She had seen the state of wave over the course of the mission. It was appalling, all the people dressed in rags. The beggars, even little children had to scavenge for food. But that was why they needed the bridge; it would open up an invaluable trade route and very likely save wave altogether, or at the very least open up more options. The entire future of wave rested on him and if she left him someone might just take the opportunity to kill him, condemning the people of wave to this kind of living for the rest of their lives.

So she stayed, watching with worried eyes and praying Naruto and Sasuke were alright.

Back in the dome

"DIEEEEEEEEEE!" Naruto roared as he pulled back and swung, shattering the ice mirror and knocking Haku out of it.

Haku grunted in pain as she hit the ground and skidded to a stop.

"His strength is unbelievable." Even with the combination of the ice and her now broken mask taking most of the impact it still hurt like hell.

But Naruto wasn't done yet, seeing his enemy was still alive he charged towards her again with the intention of finishing the job, but once he got close enough and saw who his assailant was he stopped.

"Haku?" he asked in shock. Haku flinched at the hurt evident in his voice.

"Naruto I"

"Why would you do this?" He asked tears streaming from his eyes.

"Your teammate is not dead, I put him in a state of near death to get him out of the way."

"But why would you fight us? I thought we were friends!"

"We are! The day that I spent with you was the first time I've had fun in a long time."

"Then why?" he asked quietly.

"I am Zabuza sama's weapon, nothing more. He wished me to eliminate you and your teammate so I had no choice."

"BULL SHIT!" He yelled catching her off guard.

"His weapon, no you're not. You're your own person!" He cried angrily.

"You don't understand…..before I was born, there were many powerful clans in Kiri, because of their power the Mizukage feared them greatly, he instilled this fear in others and then ordered them to be wiped out in what is known as the great bloodline purge." She said as Naruto's eyes widened in shock.

"My mother was one of the few who escaped, she married my father who had no knowledge of this. But one day, I unlocked my bloodline, ice release when I froze a flower (don't remember if that's what it was). I showed my mother and she broke it and told me to never do it again. But it was too late, my father had seen." Naruto's eyes widened even further as he figured what was coming.

"One day when I came home from the park I found that he and several others had killed my mother, I tried to run but they noticed me, in my fear I accidently used my bloodline and killed them, I ran and lived on the street for about a month before Zabuza found me. He took me with him and I've been with him ever since…..you have no idea what that was like for me."

"I do actually." He said surprising her.

"I've been hated and treated like garbage in my village since I was born, I never knew my parents but they probably hated me too cause of what I am. I've people trying to kill me since before I could walk and the only ones who've ever given a damn are Jiji and Iruka sensei. I've had it just as bad as you have and I'm telling you, you don't have to do this."

"But I" Haku never finished her sentence as her eyes widened in horror, as Naruto looked in the same direction he realized what she was staring at.

"CHIDORI!" Kakashi yelled as he charged towards Zabuza with the intention of ending it.

"Naruto…I'm sorry but I can't die yet!" Haku said as she sped forward.

"HAKU NO!" Naruto yelled as he chased after her. It was a lost cause however as injured or not, she was still faster than him.

Time seemed to stop as Haku sped forwards with the intent of taking the blow. Kakashi's eyes widened as he realized what was happening.

'Shit! It's the girl from the other day. What's she doing! I can't stop in time!'

"HAAAAAAKUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!"

Blood sprayed as Kakashi's chidori tore through the girl's stomach, coming out on the other side.

Kakashi stumbled back in shock while Zabuza just stared on blankly.

"Haku." He whispered silently.

"NO DON'T TOUCH ME!" Another scream on the other side of the bridge pulled everyone's attention in its direction.

"No." Naruto whispered as he saw the situation. A burly thug was holding a knife to Sakura's throat while Tazuna ran as fast as he could.

"My my, it seems that the demon of the mist is nothing but a little kitten." said a short, fat balding man.

"Gato. THIS IS YOUR FAULT!" Zabuza roared as the nin hounds restraining him banished themselves under his killing intent.

"Uh uh Zabuza, you move and the girl dies." He said as the thug applied enough pressure to draw blood.

But Zabuza didn't care, Gato was responsible for his surrogate daughter's death and he would have his revenge.

"I'L KILL YOUUUU!" He roared as he charged forward sword at the ready.

"ZABUZA NO!" Kakashi yelled in horror.

"Wrong move. Kill her!"

"SENSEI! SASUKE KUN! NARUTO! SOMEBODY HELP ME!"

Blood sprayed forth once more as the thug dragged his sword across Sakura's throat, dropping her struggling, choking form at his feet.

Zabuza was completely unaffected however, he rushed forward, tearing into the crowd of thugs intent on reaching a now terrified Gato. Kakashi however was a different story.

"SAKURA!" He yelled in horror as he rushed forward to try and save her. It was a lost cause however as the cut was too deep. She'd be dead within minutes.

'I've failed again.' Kakashi thought as tears streaked out of his eyes.

How could his first real mission have gone so wrong? Naruto's eyes travelled in shock from the hole riddled body of Sasuke, to the form of Haku with a gaping hole in her chest, to his sensei holding the twitching form of Sakura with her throat cut. His sorrow was replaced with something else, pure rage.

"GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!" He roared as red chakra exploded out of him once more, but something was different this time, the chakra began to take the form of a fox.

"Hmm, it seems that the time has come to seize my freedom."

"Damn it. This is getting out of hand. I can't do anything to help Sasuke or Sakura now, but I'll at least save Naruto from himself." But before he could even rise to his feet the red chakra receded and Naruto collapsed.

"NARUTO!"

Mindscape

"Where am I?" Naruto asked as he surveyed his surroundings. Instead of the bridge he was now in a dirty and very large, sewer.

"Come here." A voice echoed from down one of the halls.

"What the!" Naruto stumbled back in fear.

"I said come here." The voice called again.

"Who are you?" Naruto asked though he didn't want to know the answer.

"I SAID COME HERE DAMMIT!" The voiced called again angrily.

"AW HELL NO!" Naruto yelled as he turned tail and sprinted the other way.

"*sigh* We don't have time for this crap."

A red chakra fox shot down the tunnel and grabbed Naruto, dragging him towards the voice.

"Wait. No. Stop. I don't wanna die yet!" Naruto yelled as the fox dragged him to god knows where.

"There you are! Finally we can get started!" Kyuubi yelled as his chakra fox dragged the struggling Naruto into the seal room.

"OH MY GOD IT'S THE F***ING KYUUBI!" Naruto yelled hysterically as he saw the fox.

"Will you shut up brat!" Kyuubi yelled, he was not in the mood for this crap.

"ok." Naruto squeaked as he shrunk into a corner.

"*sigh* Look do you want to save your friends or not?" Kyuubi said impatiently getting Naruto's attention

Naruto stiffened as the memories of what had happened flooded back to him.

"Yes, your friends, the Uchiha brat, the ice wench and the pink banshee. They won't last much longer. And before you ask no, they're not dead. But they will be soon if you don't act quickly.

"But wait." Naruto said remembering something.

"Why does Sasuke need saving? I thought Haku said"

"I know what she said, she tried not to kill him but she injured him too much. Death won't come instantly but he'll be out within the hour."

"No. THERE MUST BE SOMETHING I CAN DO!" Naruto yelled.

"There is." Kyuubi said immediately re-grabbing Naruto's attention.

"What is it?" Naruto asked hopefully.

"I feel I must warn you though. The road it will take you down is not one for the light of heart. And your friends will have to suffer the same consequences." Kyuubi said.

"….."

"If you go through with this it will alter not only you and your friends, but the fate of the entire world. So I shall ask just once. Are you willing to do this?"

"….Yes."

"Then let me begin by telling you the story of how we got to this situation."

End

And that's a rap. Forgive the cliffy but I want to save the real excitement for next chapter (and there will be lots of it)
