Hello again. This story just slipped into my head the other day and I thought I'd put it on and see how it went. Please read and review. It would be much appreciated.

There was word of a nameless child who was also faceless. Not in a literal sense but no one has ever seen the child's face from the day she appeared in the village at age three. She wore a mask like that of the ANBU but it was black with red swirls across the right side of the mask. On the center of where her brow sat, was the red detail of ANBU Black Ops. There was no sign of what village she was from but she always wandered the Villge Hidden in the Leaves. Her clothing was exactly like the ANBu uniform except long gloves, the breast plate and armor were all crimson red. On her back were twin Katanas that were only inches shorter than her. Her ebony hair was kept in a tight bun so no one knew how long it was.

Something else that was weird was the fact that no one ever saw her sleep or eat. She always seemed to be ready for anything. During the day, if she wasn't on a mission, she trained with ANBU and at night she'd be doing guard duty. It was a confusing but grateful situation since she always seemed to know what was going on so if there was a threat, she'd take a team and take care of it.


"Child of the ANBU, have you decided on a name for yourself?" Lord Saritobi spoke as he saw the girl walking nearby.

"Names create bonds then enemies could use it against you. They are useless anyway," she huffed crossing her small arms.

"If you refuse to pick, then I will. You've wandered this village for five years, carrying no name. The day you arrived, dragging those two blades behind you wearing a torn kimono and a plain mask to cover your face, I was surprised. You have potential and since you can manipulate water, I'll start calling you Maiha," the third hokage spoke calmly.

"Dance of the waves?" her young voice showed amusement as she shrugged.

"Why don't you come with me to talk to Umino Iruka about one of our future genin?" she shrugged again and followed me down the streets. "Where do you stay?"

"This one needs no place. I wander freely and do not require what you call sleep," the child spoke.

"What about food?"

"The land is filled with energy of all sorts but no one can see it."

"Interesting," he mused.

"Lord Hokage!" a man with black hair pulled back and a scar across the bridge of his nose ran towards them. "Naruto is at it again! He's almost 10 and still acts like he is five!"

"Maiha, would you go retrelive the blond boy who is currently vandalizing the late fourth hokage's head?" Sarutobi asked the child and she bowed before appearing on top of the 4th hokage head.

A young boy was dangling from a rope and painting the stone. She drew one katana and cut the rope and let him fall a few feet before appearing next to him, grabbed his collar and appeared in front of the third hokage and Umino Iruka. She pushes the boy who was a head taller than her to Umino and then sheathed her katana.

"Unnecessary action but effective," Sarutobi smiled.

"Child of the ANBU!" an ANBU shinobi appeared before the group. "Forgice me Lord Hokage, but we require her skills."

"Good luck," the old man bowed them the two ANBU appeared at HQ.

Maiha was handed a scroll of her next mission and she bowed then disappeared from he village. Her mission... To go to every single village to update the missing/rough nin list then make copies if it and give it to each nation. And a few other assignments that would take a few years to complete.


-Two years later-

"Hey, this isn't far!" the blonde haired boy cried as he struggled against the post he was tied to.

"Naruto, you acted selfishly and in your own desires," the silver-haired jounin, Hatake Kakashi snapped. "Sasuke, Sakura, you may eat. Give any to naruto and you'll..."

A hunched over form appeared on top of the post that Naruto was ties to. The persons body was small and shows that they were a child. They lifted their head and revealed a black version of an ANBU mask. On their back was two Katanas that went to their knees as they stood.

"What the...?" the pink-haired girl gasped.

"Is this genjutsu?" the black-haired boy growled, drawing a kunai.

"Hatake kakashi," the child spoke, revealing that the child was a girl. "It's a pleasure to meet you."

"The nameless child of the ANBU?" he inquiried and she nodded her head.

"You had to interrupt kakashi-sensei for that?" the blond growled struggling against his restraints.

"Uzamaki Naruto, silence," the child snapped he froze. "Uchiha Sasuke, put away that kunai, I am no enemy." sasuke slid his kunai back into its holster. "Haruno Sakura, staring is not nice."

"How is it you know all of us but we have never seen you before?" Sakura asked.

"You were probaly still in your floral class, girl to even know me," the girl spoke as she jumped off the post and landed next to Naruto.

"Child of the ANBU, you returned!" two ANBU came into view and the child pulled a scroll out of the bag at her side and tossed it to them.

"Every detail required is in that. Only Lord Sautobi will be able to break the scroll. Now I will be taking a couple months off. I may not have certain things restraining me like you do, but I have my limits as well. No missions period," she growled.

"Very well, rest up," one laughed and the girl growled. She started to lunge at them but kakashi grabbed both her arms and held her back. "It's a joke, Maiha." then the two ANBU disappeared. Kakashi released the child and she disappeared without a second glance at the group of genin.
