Intro: Revealing the Truth

"you, Uzumaki Naruto, are the Kyuubi no Kitsune!" Mizuki shouted, launching the Fuma Shuriken in his hand towards the stunned child, who simply shuts his eyes and waits for death, only to open his eyes in shock as he hears the sound of metal piercing flesh, but feeling no pain. As he crouches over his trembling student, Umino Iruka smiles softly at the bland as blood begins to leak out of the corners of his mouth.

Uzumaki Naruto stared at the chunin before him; Umino Iruka had taken not only a handful of shuriken meant for him, but also a Fuma Shuriken in the back, all to protect him. "Why… why Iruka sensei?" the small teen asked, as tears began to well up in his sky blue eyes. "Why risk your life for a demon?"

"Because you're not the Kyuubi, you are Uzumaki Naruto, Konoha's number one most unpredictable ninja and greatest prankster." Iruka states, looking at Naruto lovingly, "Just because most can't tell the difference between a kunai and the scroll it is sealed in doesn't mean some can." Iruka replies, before coughing and spraying poor little Naruto in blood.

Naruto stares at Iruka in horror as his eyes slowly lose life, then screams in rage as a malevolent blood-red chakra begins to pour out of his body.

"You know what you must do kit. To destroy the traitor and save your sensei, you have the knowledge." A dark and oddly feminine voice says in Naruto's mind.

Naruto stand, and begins running through handseals at a pace that slightly disturbs Mizuki, before crying out, "Warriors, to me!"

A large pillar of blood-red chakra launches into the sky, signaling all the ninja within Konoha to the beat down that is about to begin.

A woman with purple hair tied in a pineapple-like ponytail stares in the direction the pillar arose from, before tearing off at a speed only ninja could achieve.

A male with gravity defying silver hair also takes off towards the chakra column, unknowingly uttering a prayer similar to the purple haired Kunoichi, "please Kami, let the kid be ok."

Mizuki stares at the small blond before him with contempt, "What was that supposed to do exactly?"

Naruto smirks as behind him a pair of men, both as different from one another as night and day appear in two pillars of blue energy.

The taller of the two, who happened to be nearly 7 feet, has long straight silver hair. He is wearing a long trench coat with two metal pieces of armor on his shoulders. He has no shirt, and criss-crossing his chest is several bands of cloth. His pants are simple jeans, and on his feet is a pair of combat boots with metal plates on the toes and heels. In his hand is a Nodachi with neon green cloth wrapped around the handle, the blade is held in a reverse grip in his left hand, with the tip of the blade off to the right of the man's head.

The other is roughly 5'8" with spiky blond hair. He is wearing a tight muscle shirt with a traveling cloak that is missing the right sleeve on over it. On his left shoulder is a stylized shoulder piece in the shape of a lion's head. Held in his right hand is a large Zanbatou type blade that seems to be some form of a machine, which is propped on his shoulder, as he stands and smirks at the silver haired Chunin before him.

"Summon us of course." The silver haired man states emotionlessly, "Naruto-sama, what do you wish for us to do to him?"

"Kill him." Is Naruto's immediate response, followed shortly by, "nice and slowly, make him suffer."

The silver haired man looks down at the boy before him and nods, before looking up at Mizuki, revealing a pair of bright neon green eyes with slits for pupils, like a cats eye. The man smirks as he vanishes, then reappears in front of Mizuki, his nodachi now in his right hand, in midswing.

Mizuki jumps backwards, narrowly missing the long blade, only to leap to the side as the second man appears and brings his blade down in a massive overhead chop, narrowly avoiding the loss of his right arm.

Naruto turns towards Iruka as a girl wearing an open tan colored trench coat with purple hair in a ponytail resembling a pineapple, and a masked man with silver gravity defying hair appear, then says, "Help me save Iruka-sensei, Mizuki-teme hurt him pretty bad."

Another new person enters the clearing, this one female wearing a black t-shirt and black booty shorts, with a battle style skirt over them, and a pair of leather gloves on her hands. She is only slightly shorter than the blonde with the Zanbatou –class blade, with long brown hair kept in a neat ponytail. "Hai, Naruto-Sama." The girl says with a nod, before reaching into a small box on her right hip and pulling out a small green orb, which rapidly grows, and slowly pushes it into Iruka after Naruto takes all the Kunai and Shuriken out of his back and legs.

The masked man looks at the girl oddly, which is unnoticed due to the fact that only his right eye was visible, "Naruto-Sama? Anko… what the hell did we miss?"

The purple haired woman looks towards The fight and blinks, "I don't know Kakashi-senpai, but look at those two, their toying with Mizuki."

And indeed they were, the two (who were mortal enemies once) were displaying a level of teamwork and cooperation that had only been seem in the Legendary Sannin, before they disbanded.

Naruto looked over and smirked, "Serves the bastard right, trying to betray the village and almost killing Iruka-sensei. The blond is Cloud Strife, the silver haired one is Sephiroth, and this is Tifa, they are my personal body guards for lack of a better description."

"Ok…" Kakashi replies, looking at the two men as they continue to toy with the traitor.

"Naruto! Can we kill the bastard already?" Cloud asks, swinging his large blade in circles above his head, before bringing it down and narrowly missing Mizuki's nose, and nicking his chest, removing his flack-jacket.

Naruto adopts a thinking pose, making all but the three combatants face-palm, before saying, "Hai. Seeing as we got a nice audience, you might as well demonstrate your abilities."

Kakashi and Anko look around at the blonds' words and gasp, seeing almost every able-bodied Shinobi in the village in the trees, staring in amazement at the sight before them. Even the Hokage was slack jawed at what he was seeing.

"Allow me the opportunity to go first, Little Brother." Sephiroth says, as green energy begins to swirl around him. He launches forward, an brings his blade to bear in a horizontal slash, before shouting, "Octaslash", an several flashes of silver are seen as he vanishes from view, before appearing behind him, nodachi off to the side as a single black as night wing sprouts from his back. "Rising Angel" he intones, before kicking Mizuki in the chin, launching him into the air, then launching after him, and striking him as he flies past.

"My turn! Omni-Slash!" Cloud shouts as he appears in midair in front of Mizuki, his body being covered in a brilliant golden light. He swings his blade at Mizuki, which breaks into seven and surrounds Mizuki, even as glowing golden copies of Cloud appear, and grab hold of the glowing blades. They then, one at a time, launch forward and slash Mizuki, before the real Cloud stabs Mizuki through the heart, and rips his blade out to the right, opening the traitor's chest and side.

Mizuki hits the ground with a dull thud, as slow clapping is heard. Everyone turns to the Hokage, as he smiles and approaches Naruto. "Uzumaki-kun, for saving the village and preventin the loss of the Forbidden Scroll of Seals, I hereby promote you to Genin, with a chance to become Chunin in a years time. And to Cloud-san, Sephiroth-san, and Tifa-san, I give you my deepest gratitude for both protecting this young man, and ask that you train him to control the power he will gain from your… situation."

"Hai, Hokage-Sama." All three say, bowing towards the aging man.

"So…. Am I the only one confused here?" Kakashi asks, turning to Anko getting a laugh out of the three new people, and a smile from Naruto.

"Don't you know anything Kakashi-Nii? I'm Uzumaki Naruto, Konoha's Number One Most Unpredictable and Knuckleheaded Ninja!" Naruto shouts, standing up, as Cloud and Tifa embrace, while Sephiroth simply floats midair, looking down on his charge with a small unnoticed smile.
