Chapter 1: How It Started

A dark nightly hill with the only illumination coming from the moon, rests two small tents enough for two people, but currently one wasn't inside his tent. He standing near them burnt out fire waiting for his student to wake-up. He was 27-year-old with shoulder length blond hair pulled into a small ponytail with a tan complexion due to being in the sun for days at a time. Being the standing at a height of five-foot and ten-inches for his age, he had an athletic build due to his "job". Strange whisker like birth marks adorn his cheeks with a scar going across the whiskers on the left side his face, blue eyes with also strange silted eyes giving him a fox like appearance. He was wearing generic pair of dark brown cargo pants and black pair of boots, his upper body only showing a black jacket with brown fur around the hood, the collar hung loose only showing a faint outline of a cord for a necklace and his dark green shirt. On his shoulder had was a Remington 700 for "hunting" and a Beretta M9 strapped to his leg for his "personal defense."

Currently he was in a country in western Asia, he was here due to his job. He and his student Johnathan Mar or Jonah, were sent from Headquarters to provide reinforcement to the military base that was in this area. There was an oil field that has been disputed over for some time now which only brings trouble. Currently are lone figure sighs heavily knowing this is going to be a problem. Having experienced this once time before and nearly costing him his life due to one persons greed. He stops his recollection of the past when he heard a zipper being pulled down from the second tent. Turning around he sees his student which he viewed as a younger brother but he wouldn't let Jonah know that. If he were to die with Jonah knowing, he honestly thinks Jonah would snap. Looking at Jonah he was a child that lost his innocence long ago. Being still a kid he was short but had lighter athletic build compared to his teacher. Having natural white hair with dark skin, reddish eyes, and small scar diagonally under his left eye gives him a unique appearance, many times women call him cute much to Jonah's annoyance. His clothes were simple black hoodie over a white shirt and black cargo shorts, on his feet were strap-on sandals. One of his weapons was a combat knife given to him by his teacher, the other was a AK-47 simple of enough gun that even a child can use and maintain.

"Naruto are we going soon," Jonah asked his teacher.

"Yes Jonah we'll leave in five minutes, also we'll leave the tents here in case things go sour during the job. If anything happens we will meet here before planning what to do next" are now named figure.

"Understood" was all that was said. After the five minutes were up both started their trek through the forest. They wouldn't reach the base until another four hours but by then it would be morning. Having stopped half way to recharge their batteries they continued. Stumbling on a road fifteen minutes before they reach their destination, both choose that being seen on their approach was better then surprising them and being shoot in a misunderstanding. Once a viewing distance of the compound Naruto waved his hand twice to get one of the guard patrols attention. One patrol did see this and the patrol leader sent one of his grunts to get the commander. Ten minutes passed, now there was two patrols and commander standing at the gate to greet are teacher and student duo. "Halt state your business" was said in a commanding tone.

"Me and my companion are here because of your request for reinforcements," was all Naruto said while noticing the suspicious look he got from the man.

"Very well, show me your conformation letter before we continue this." Wanting proof Naruto nods his head slowly reaching into his jacket. When doing so the guards raised their rifles as thinking a gun was going to be pulled out, but a quick instruction from the commander to stand down they relaxed. When reaching in his coat Naruto grabbed a brown envelope and took it out for the world to see, one guard slowly approached and took the envelope and walked back to the commander. As the guard took the envelope back to the commander Naruto was internally think what was going on. "Something not right, even for a military base there's to many guard patrols around and most of these soldiers seem jumpy, no agitated. Only reason I can think of now is someone rattled the cage."

As the commander finished reading the letter he nods in which tells him men to stand down, then looks Naruto in the eyes before speaking, "Sorry Mr. Uzumaki for the hostility we have shown but we have caught a journalist a few days ago by a mine field and have been on high alert since then. Now if you'll follow me, I'll show you your quarters for the time being." So they did, stepping into the compound they followed the commander. When nearing the living quarters Naruto and Jonah noticed a pair of small eyes looking at them but more toward Jonah. Curious on why there were other was another child a civilian at that was at the base Naruto questioned the commander.

"Commander why is it that I see a civilian kid following us?"

"It is because I've taken them in, even if my sub-commander doesn't approve." Nodding accepting the answer to his question he turns to Jonah.

"Jonah go and socialize with the orphans once the commander shown us are quarters here. You need to be around people your own age more, I'll handle the meeting with the commander and sub-commander alone after this." Jonah looked at surprised at Naruto. Normally he would follow Naruto to the meeting then quite outside, so taking the chance Naruto's given him he only nobs and continues walking.
