Disclaimer: I obviously don't own Naruto, but, I do own a Hinata-plushie. Yay! Huggles said plushie AN: After the time-skip, Sasuke's back, Orochimaru's still alive though.
Summary: There is a secret village, only rumors are heard. But what happens when this secret village sends two genins into Konoha?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A group of villagers were talking outside of the Ichiraku ramen stand, in which a certain blonde haired shinobi was consuming inhumane amounts of ramen.
"Village Hidden in the Oar? What kind a village is that?" asked one as the others shrugged. "No idea, maybe it has something to do with fishing, and boats." remarked one of them and they all laughed.
Naruto looked at them when they mentioned the villages name. "What are you looking at, demon?" yelled one of them, completely forgetting the conversation, and they all turned towards him, scowling at the poor jinchuuriki. Naruto quickly looked away, but the damage had been done. "Turning your back, demon? We ought to kill you right now!" exclaimed the leader as they walked closer.
"Stop harassing my customer!" Teuchi yelled, weilding a ladle. The villagers mumbled, walking away, scowling and glaring with hatred at Naruto.
"Don't let it bother you, Naruto-kun." Ayame commented, patting the blonde's shoulder. Naruto smiled his biggest and downed his ramen soup. "I had to get going anyway, don't want to be late for by meeting with the obaa-chan." Naruto paid for his many bowls and walked out of the bridge, heading for the Hokage Tower.
It was nearing the winter solstice and everyone had put their training to a minimal, except Naruto. He had claimed that the cold didn't bother him, which earned him a smack to the head, by Sakura, for 'showing off'.
Naruto entered the Hokage's office to find the usual sight, Tsunade doing paperwork, but wishing she was somewhere else, drinking, and Shizune, standing straight beside her. "So, obaa-chan, what's up?" asked Naruto as he sat, earning him a smile from both women.
"Hello, Naruto-kun, how are you?" asked Shizune as she gave him a cup of warm cocoa. "Thank you, Shizune-neechan. I'm alright." Naruto responded, smiling at them both.
As Naruto sipped the cocoa, Tsunade told him some basic mission status's for some of his friends. "Oh, and Naruto, since you're here, I wanted to know if you've heard of a rumor of a village?" asked the Godaime as she tilted her head at the equally blonde boy.
"Yeah, actually. Something about boats." Naruto said, finishing his cocoa. "Actually, it's The Village Hidden in the Oar, iron oar that is." Tsunade remarked. "They have a high ranked clan called the Elekt (elect), but that is not thier family name. They are advanced in technology." Tsunade explained and Naruto tilted his head.
"Eh? Technology?" asked Naruto as his confusion seeped in. "They have devices that are surpass every other village, because they have the materials for them." Tsunade said, and Naruto nodded slowly.
"So, what's this about?" asked Naruto. "The Village Hidden in the Oar, Rogakure, is very powerful, not just in technology. They have some...strange bloodlines, not all useful. And they were thinking about starting an all-village war." Tsunade said, and Naruto frowned slightly.
"Why?" he asked. "The leaders of the Elekt clan think they are superior to other villages, they wonder what it would be like to fight all the outside villages at once." Tsunade said, gauging Naruto's reaction.
"But that would be suicide!" Naruto exclaimed. "Yes it would. There is one member of the Elekt clan, however, who is wanting to be on good terms with the villages, he has changed the minds of his elders and now it's been narrowed down to just Konohagakure." Tsunade said and looked out the massive glass window, watching the snowflakes fall.
"What's being done to prevent this war?" asked the Kyuubi vessel as he watched Tsunade. "Two of their nins, the one from the Elekt clan, and his escort, will be arriving early tomorrow morning to spend some time in this village before deciding whether to attack or not." Shizune said and Naruto stayed silent.
"Wouldn't they just attack right off the bat without warning?" asked Naruto as he scratched the back of his head. "They would most likely go back to their village to attack with full force, but, if they do decide to attack while still in the village, we'll have our best ANBU members watching them." Tsunade said and Naruto nodded.
"We want this war subject to be hush-hush, so no spreading the news, Naruto." Tsunade warned. "You got it, obaa-chan." Naruto said, smiling foxily as he pretended to zip his mouth shut.
"You're dismissed, Naruto." Tsunade said as she leaned back into her blue chair.

A carriage, driven by two horses, was making it's way towards Konoha, carrying two shinobi. One was looking out of the silken drape, watching as the gates slowly, but surely, become closer.
He was wearing a forehead protector, branded with the Oar symbol, a crescent moon. Golden eyes watched the gates in anticipation. He wore a black short sleeved dress shirt, with a fishnet undershirt. His black shinobi pants were heavy from material, leading to his black sandles.
A single special made kunai was strapped to his left forearm, with two extra blades attatched to it. There was a large object laid by his feet, covered by a sheet
His hair was black, long, and tied up, cascading down his back. His arms were bare, except for the dark blue glove covering his right hand. He had wrist bands with his symbol. He looked around fifteen. Two small black stripes ran over both of his eyes, two on the side of his face, on his jaw, his chin, and on the other side of his cheek, on his jaw.
"Dante-sama, stop looking at our enemies gates." came a commanding voice and the young man looked towards the voice.
The owner of the voice was about twenty-three, wearing a stern face. He had long brown hair, kept with his forehead protector, same symbol. His green eyes scanned the younger boy before looking ahead once again. He was wearing a black overcoat, over a white short sleeved shirt. He was wearing the same jonin pants as Dante.
His white sandles matched his shirt. He had similar black marks, two on his left cheek, the rest nowhere to be seen. "Zen, they are not our enemies until I say, got it?" asked Dante, a smile over his features. "Hai, Dante-sama. Gomen." responded the older man, nodding. Dante looked back out and saw they were coming to a stop.
"Halt!" came the chuunins shout, and Dante sighed. "I'll take care of it, Dante-sama." Zen said as he opened the side door of the carriage and stepped out.
"I.D's?" asked one of the chuunins and Zen gave them his and Dante's. "Oh, the two from the Oar village. Sorry for disrupting your trip." said the chuunin and they bowed as they handed the papers back and Zen went back into the carriage. As the gates opened, the carriage began moving once again, and Dante yawned loudly.
"This village seems...nice." Zen offered and Dante looked out of the drape. "Ergh, ramen." Dante said, clutching his nose to block the wretched smell.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the carriage came to a stop outside of the Hokage's Tower, Zen got out, surveying the villagers watching, and many of the shops nearby. He circled the carriage and opened Dante's door, and he stepped out. Turning around, he holstered up the large object that was under the sheet. Taking the sheet off, the villagers were confused at the object, never seeing it before.
To anyone who has ever seen an object like this, you would know, with it's dual blades and engine, it is a chainsaw. Of course, the people of Konohagakure had never seen an object like this, but they could safely presume it was a weapon. Sliding the chainsaw into a large sheath strapped to his back, Dante started to walk the spiraling stairs up into the building, Zen following behind, occasionally waving at the villagers.
A harsh knocking interrupted the very important kunoichi meeting. "Come in." came the voice of the Godaime, and the door opened, to reveal Zen, holding the door open as Dante walked in, arms folded behind his back. "Sorry," Dante spoke, in a tone that meant he wasn't sorry at all, "Am I interrupting something?" he asked as he smirked slightly.
Anko, about to open her mouth to tell the little brat off, had her mouth covered by Shizune's hand, as Tsunade spoke. "Of course not, come right in." the Godaime said cheerfully.
Dante walked into the center of the room, sandles making a satisfying thud on the wooden flooring. Zen walked behind the Elekt member, a little to his right.
Shizune removed her hand from Anko's mouth, a mistake. "Alright, brat, who are you and why are you here?" the loud mouthed special jonin asked and everyone looked at her.
Dante smirked again, and looked down at the floor. "I am Dante Nasikama, and I'm the only one who gives a damn about preventing this war."

Sephireth-Hopper: Huggles Hinata Plushie
Naruto and Sakura happen to walk by. "Eh? What're you doing?" asks Naruto.
Sephireth jumps up and hide the plushy. "Nothing...but do you two know where Hinata is? Maybe?" I ask as my eyes shift.
"Over there." Sakura points. "HINATA-CHAN!" I yell as I run to the spot.
"...weirdo..." both Naruto and Sakura mutter this and walk away.
