Encounter
Team Kakashi and Team Asuma were returning from a mission when they heard shouts. They stopped and went to go check it out. They came upon the scene of a small battle between a hooded figure holding a white sword, fending four attackers dressed in black. They attacked in a wolvish fashion, first surrounding him, then trying to attack on his blind spots. The guy they were attacking was much faster than they were, side-stepping an attacker to his left, then slamming him to the ground with the large white sword. Everyone flinched, it looked painful. One of the attackers casted something and shot a ball of fire at him. The guy tapped his sword and held his hand out in front of him. The fireball hit what looked like an invisible wall and dispersed. The guy pulled out another sword, a large, blood red one. He sheathed the white sword and held the red one in front of him; it had a black tint. Another one attacked; he sliced it in half so fast his body didn't separate until he landed. The other two attacked simultaneously. The guy stroked the sword with two fingers, then did a 180 slash. A wave of red lightning leaped from the sword and blasted the two attackers back. They hit the tree where they sizzled, giving a death rattle. He sheathed the sword and continued down the path. It wasn't until Naruto landed on the ground that he unsheathed the red one and readied himself for attack.
"Wait! I'm not here to fight you!" Naruto said quickly putting his hands in front of him.
"Then what are you here for?" He asked, still not putting down the sword.
"I just wanted to know if you were O.K." Naruto said.
"I'm fine." He said now lowering his guard.
"Those are interesting swords you got there."
"Yeah...they're interesting." he answered, a hint of depression in his voice.
"So what brings you this way? Who were those guys?"
"To answer both questions at once; I'm looking for someone, and they were trying to stop me."
"Who were you looking for?"
"Naruto, you're so nosy!" Sakura whispered.
"Either way, he's getting information from this guy." Kakashi whispered back.
"It's no one really."
"Apparently they are if you're going through this much trouble to find them. Is it a girl?"
He hesitated, "My sister."
"Oh. What happened to her?"
"She was kidnapped."
"By who?"
"Someone you wouldn't know."
"Anyway we could help?"
"We?"
"Yeah, my friends are all there in that tree."
Everyone groaned.
"Leave it to Naruto to blow our cover." Ino said.
He looked towards the tree as everyone jumped out.
Sakura and Ino both hit Naruto on the head,"Way to go idiot!"
"So, what's your name?" Shikamaru asked.
"Junsei; but to answer his question, I don't think there's anything any of you can do to help."
"Why not?" Choji asked.
"Because the man I'm after isn't your average man."
"Believe me, we've run into quite a bit of men like that." Kakashi said.
"Still, I don't see where ninja will come in handy on this trip." Junsei said.
"You'll find ninja can be handy in many situations." Kakashi said.
"Is that so?" Junsei said unsheathing the white sword. Kakashi noticed the five kanji in a perfect line going down the blade. "Care to put that claim to the test?"
"Sure, I'll take you on!" Naruto said.
"Alright, let's see what you're made of."
"Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
Five more Naruto appeared, taking Junsei by surprise. They all jumped into the air, preparing to reign down their wrath. Junsei tapped his sword with two fingers, the first Kanji.
"Seal of Protection!"
The Narutos all ran into an invisible wall. Junsei pushed his hands outward, sending them flying back. In the blink of an eye he now held the red sword. He stroked the sword and jumped into the air.
"Curse of Retribution!"
With blinding speed he was able to destroy the Naruto clones, not once hitting Naruto. Naruto made one more clone, and readied himself for Rasengan. Junsei landed and put his sword away. Holding his right arm with his left, his right arm became covered in a white aura. At full power they both charged and clashed. Their abilities canceled out, sending both boys flying back, knocking Junsei's hood off. Junsei quickly rose and charged at Naruto, his arm coated in the white aura again. He landed his punch on Naruto's chest, but didn't send him flying; instead he ended up lifting a stunned Naruto by his collar with one hand, the slammed him into the ground, making a small crater. He turned around to walk away. Naruto jumped out the crater and rammed him into a tree. Junsei jumped off the tree and rammed Naruto in the chest. He grabbed him by the collar again and dragged him through the dirt and right into a tree across the way.
"Man, this guy's tough." Ino said.
Naruto rose and looked Junsei straight in the eye. His eyes were a pale gold, and he had long black hair. Naruto got out his kunai, and this time Junsei pulled out both swords; the white in his left and the red in his right.
"Time to end this!"
He twisted both swords and held them in front of him like a cross, closing his eyes. He stayed like this for a moment, and Naruto, impatient, charged. When he was close enough Junsei opened his eyes and vanished, reappearing behind Naruto. With the white sword he knocked Naruto into the air. From there he used the red sword to slash Naruto from every direction before delivering the final, double blow, sending him crashing back into the ground. After a few seconds, Naruto feebly rose from the new crater formed from this new move.
"Heh, you're tough; let's fix that."
Junsei knocked him in the air again, this time knocking him higer, all the while slashing at him. He appeared in above Naruto and stroked the red sword again, this time a spark of red was seen coming from his fingers.
"Curse of Pain!"
He slashed the air as a crimson ark smashed into Naruto, sending him once again sailing to the ground. Junsei wasn't done, this lifting the sword above his head, it glowed red, then, surging with power, he pointed at Naruto and yelled,"Improved Curse of Pain: Mark of Suffering!"
A blast of energy shot from the sword and hit Naruto point blank, causing an explosion that sent everyone flying back.
