After wandering in the Mist and fighting mist-monsters for ages, the crew stumbled across the village hidden in the leaves. They as the entered the thrown-open gates, the sound of crying greeted them. Snatches of bitchy gossipy voices drifted into their ears, buoyed by gusts of wind. "Ten mouths to feed, and not a single…" "All my husband cares about is his carpenter jutsu…" "Have to tolerate them I suppose… Gotta remember what we loved about them in the first place.." "The village has visito…." The shadowy figures which were gathered about what passed for the town square vanished abruptly, as if they were never there.

The eerie silence that followed was broken by loud rambunctious laughter, which could only belong to Naruto Uzumaki. It was quickly echoed by chattering younger voices, as 2 of the 3-person ninja teams came into view – Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura ; Shikamaru, Ino, Choji, TenTen was also tagging along because Rock and Neji were out - they were closely followed by their understudy kids – Konohamaru and his crew.

They stopped short, having too much fun to notice the battle-hardened Avalanche members before they almost walked into them.

"Whoa! Who the Hell are You Guys?" Naruto looked gapingly at the newcomers.

"Careful Naruto.. They might be part of the Hidden Swordsmen from the Mist.. Remember Zabuzak? He had that big sword too!" Sakura looked worried as she reached for a kunai – an action which Sasuke quickly copied.

"Hmm.. They certainly don't LOOK like part of the Jehova Reunion…"

Cloud narrowed his twin azure mako-radiated eyes to slits, and shifted the grip on his Buster sword. Sure, they looked like kids, barely into their teens, but who knew what the Jehova's Witnesses looked like under their mysterious lily-like flitting cloaks? The seemed the right height.. though their mannerisms were hardly zombielike like those they saw climbing the winding cliff-face.

Red Xiii, the ever suspicious feline, cast sense on them, and shouted "They got MP reserves! These are no ordinary humans!" Trigger-happy Ci promptly poked his spear at the nearest 'Jehovist', a female with her hair done up in twin buns, only to be met with a steely spear of equal caliber, which she produced from seemingly nowhere in a spiral of paper.

Tifa took a quick right jab at the kid in white and blue, seemingly the most sullen of them all, but quickly pulled her hands away as he cupped his hand to his mouth and blew a sphere of flame, making her fireproofed gloves smoulder and burst into tiny pinpricks of flame. She blew on them quickly.

Seeing the demostration of 'hostile magic', all holds were off and Cait danced about, casting Ice2 on all the enemies while hyped-up Yuffie buffed up the party with Haste. The shinobi were no amateurs to combat and.. deciding that they were being attacked by the Mist Swordmen 7 after all, spared no chakra in executing their own jutsus.

Sheer chaos ensured.

Naruto, deciding that the sword-swinging boy was more of a threat than the stuffed puppet, did his shadow clone jutsu and charged him, one of his clones herding Konohamaru to the relative safety of the Cliffs. Cloud blocked the first orange jumpsuited clone, then the second, and the one after that, but the rest of them got under him, and kicked him into the air, and then they made a makeshift platform and boosted Naruto in the air.. he slammed the spiky haired soldier painfully to the ground triumphantly. "Naruto Uzumaki Barrage!"

Thinking that he had won, Naruto and his shadow clones simulantaneously turned to fight the other members of Avalanche, but Cloud sorta started glowing and with declaring "Omnislash!", he rushed forward like an unstoppable juggernaut and slashed each clone, impossibly quick, causing them all to poof.

Meanwhile Shikamaru was executing his shadow possession jutsu on Red Xiii and pale-skinned Vincent at the same time. They tried to counter when they saw his rapid finger movements - obviously casting magic - but found that they could not move.

"Ugh im stopped!" Vincent looked disgusted and amused at the same time that a kid could cast such a high level spell.. He could only do slow, and he was supposed to be a highly trained (highly paid) Turk. Yuffie threw her conformer at Shikamaru, forcing him to duck, and releasing the jutsu before he could shadow-strangle them, but in doing so, she made herself a sitting duck for Ino's possession jutsu.

Ino went down and formed a circle with her ten fingers, thumbs down touching, and widened her eyes, her consciousness soaring into Yuffie's. She found herself in the slim girl's body and ya-taa-ed, then proceeded to catch the conformer which came back, and throw it at the unsuspecting duo, who were busy casting Cosmo Memory and transforming into Hellmasker respectively - taking both heads! (wtf?)

Sakura shrieked as the blood splattered onto the stone pathway and screamed even louder as the real Naruto was slashed savagely, nearly turning him into half. She forced dire thoughts out of her mind and concentrated on her palms, which were soon suffused in a warm green glow, and placed them over the nasty wound. Naruto's heartbeat grew fainter... and fainter... Sakura focused on when she healed the dead fish, and willed the dying Naruto to flop. (huh wtf?) But then she felt another presence in her patient... the NineTails Chakra awakened and Naruto's pupils shrunk to tiny pinpricks, and he tapped on the suddenly-enormous chakra reserves to summon the gigantic boss frog, Gamabunta, just as Jiraya taught him.

Both parties froze as the towering shadow loomed across them, as the badass pipe-toting toad appeared. But Barret just laughed manacially and lobbed his considerable stash of ammunition and explosive at it, "Catastrophe!" It blew up, along with Naruto and Sakura. Assorted icky guts showered the onlookers. (wtf!)

The score was now 2:2, with a slight advantage to the Genin, who were on home ground. Realizing that the man with the machine-gun arm and the guy with the spiky sword were the strongest threat. Sasuke charged up his chidori, taught by Kakashi, their teacher, the copy-ninja, while everyone was distracted by the shower of guts.

When they looked around to see what was causing the flickering glow reflected on each other.. Sasuke was running forward with a chirping ball of lightning energy in his hand, and a slightly manical look in his eye. He blew an irreparable hole in both Barret and Cloud's bodies, plowing through them like they were made of cotton. (wtf...)

Tifa gaped at the sight and used w-item, two phoenix downs, attempting to revive them, but Shikamaru spotted this and threw a couple of shruikens at her. She executed a perfect dolphin blow, reversing the trajectory of the projectiles and neatly impaling Shikamaru on the tree. Through his Chunin vest, effectively ending his life. As the two members of Avalanche revived they shelled themselves seeing how their opponents didn't use much physical attacks but depended on magic.

Unfortunately, Choji popped a couplva pills and expanded to almost Gamabunta's size, and squashed all three of them into neat pancakes. (wtf!!) Choji felt a little ashamed. He hadn't really contributed much to the fight - he was playing slots with The Dark Lord Sith-Reeve, even though he was on the light team, (wtf??) but here he was, having the top kills of the lot. The silly ks-er.

Suddenly he felt ill and exploded. Maybe he shouldnt have taken more than one pill at a time. Cait was taking a deep breath to blow into the megaphone at Choji but a couplva of potent Cho-pills flew into his mouth and he accidently swallowed, and promptly exploded too. (w…t…f)

That left TenTen and Cid as the only survivors, and they decided to play with more interesting spears than those they were currently wielding (wtfxx).

Seeing the battle was over..? The ghost of Aeris floated up and revived both the ninjas and Avalanche with Great Gospel, summoning a pair of Cherubs to return life to them. She didn't really need to revive the ninjas, but she did so anyway, cos she was such a sucker for being nice. (wtffff)

Another disappointing end to a story with a great beginning.
