It was an average day on the outskirts of konohagakure but for one shinobi who thought he was going to get a cool mission it was the most boring day ever.

Hey Kakashi sensei! Yelled Naruto impatiently.

The masked Jounin simply gave a "hmpf" of acknowledgement to the blonde genin.

When are we going fight someone, this is boring. When the Hokage said we were going on a C-rank escort mission I thought we would get to fight enemy shinobi but instead we get stuck guarding this drunk old guy. whined loudly

Kakashi without removing his eyes from the small orange book in his hand replied simply, Naruto this is only a C-rank mission, the odds of finding enemies are slim to none and if we do it would most likely be simple highway bandits.

What gosh this sucks! As he was thinking of a way to pass the time he noticed a puddle sitting in the middle of the road. He then wondered how there was a puddle when it hadn't rained in days. He was about to turn around point this out to his sensei when suddenly he heard a noise behind him. He turned around in time to see two men dressed in black with a long chain attached to both of thier gauntlets tear his sensei in half.

At this every member of his team stopped dead in thier tracks. He was about to step in when he heard a scream coming from the pink haired girl of the group that nearly shattered his eardrums.

Sakura shut up! yelled the black haired teen Sasuke, who was rubbing his ear because he was standing next to the girl.

Ha for once I can agree with that teme Sasuke. thought Naruto as his mind then entered into battle mode

Sasuke guard the client I'll take care of the two guys in black, stated Naruto firmly. Before Sasuke even had the chance to respond Naruto was off like a rocket.

As the man on the left raised his arm to strike at Naruto, he jumped and kicked him in the side of the head. The other man then threw his arm forward and propelled the barbed chain at Naruto who had no way to escape as he was in the air.

Just as the chain was about to strike him in the chest something flicked into Naruto's vision and deflected it enough that he could dodge the chain. As he landed on the ground the man had to detach the chain from his gauntlet as his partner's distance was to great after being kicked by Naruto for it to be effective in battle.

Immediately after they detached the chain they both started running towards Nauto who entered a defencive stance and was preparing for them to attack. The two men were running side by side now and they were about to attack when Naruto threw a kunai between them breaking their formation and allowing him to jump towards the man on the left and deliver another devestaing kick to his head sending him cascading into a tree knocking him out instantly.

The other man was already upon Naruto as he landed. Naruto tried to preform a leg sweep at the man's legs but was stopped when his hand pressed down on the barbed chain that had been disconnected from the man's gauntlet. As the man drew a kunai and was jumping towards Naruto's neck to finish him off he was suddenly stopped dead in his tracks by an unknown force.

While he wasn't able to stab him in the neck as he was landing he threw the kunai and struck naruto in the side of his right calf which caused the blonde to fall to the ground.

The man then charged at Naruto who was writhing on the ground in pain. As the man charged closer Naruto decided to pull a last ditch manuever and yanked the kunai from his calf and hurtled it at the man hoping for the best.

The man saw Naruto throw the kunai and could tell that in the heat of the moment the kid didn't even aim and the kunai was going to miss him by almost a foot. As he drew his attention back to the blonde genin he noticed a look of curiosity in Naruto's eyes as he drew closer. He then wondered what he could be curious about in his final moments. Just then he felt a sharp stabbing pain in the side of his neck. He looked and saw the kunai sticking from his neck.

He looked at Naruto in complete shock and in his final moment noticed the complete look of shock and bewilderment upon the face of the blonde teen.

It was at that moment that Kakashi decided to make an appearance after faking his own death to test the capability of his students.

Sakura you accomplished nothing with your scream and terror and ear shattering voice, Kakshi stated firmly with obvious dissapointment in his voice.

Sasuke you did a good job with protecting Sakura and the client, He stated calmly while getting a smirk of acknowledgment from the Uchiha

Naruto! bellowed Kakshi as he turned to the blonde who was still on the ground

Yes sensei said Naruto in response as he was struggling to stand.

You shouldnt have charged into battle like that, you should have left the job to someone of proper competence such as Sasuke. stated the Jounin as if Naruto was stupid for eliminating two enemies single handedly.

What but I beat both of them and if Sasuke was so competant then why did he not jump into action instead of standing thier yelling at Sakura because she tried to blow our eardrums out?! asked Naruto angrily.

Shut up Naruto and listen to sensei you're just jealouse because Sasuke-Kun could have beaten them in half the time it took you. bellowed the pink haired banshee (I am not a fan of Sakura).

Yeah and what did you do besides just stand their and scream like a banshee? yelled Naruto.

NARUTO! you will not and I repeat not insult Sasuke or Sakura as they are your teamates and you will show them the proper respect! Yelled Kakshi as he stepped towards Naruto.

Respect! where was the respect when she insulted me for saving her life and by the way, where was your ass when I was close to dying how many times!, oh yeah you were hiding in the bushes waiting to see if I would die! Yelled Naruto as Kakashi was now in front of him and Naruto was looking up into his eye with a glare of hatred.

Silence! You are lucky you got through that ordeal in one piece so how about instead of insulting your suppiors Genin! You brush up on your skills so that you won't have so much trouble next time! said Kakashi putting as much emphasis on the word "genin" as he possibly could.

You know what your right! I should get stronger but oviously that isn't going to happen while I am on a team of people who could care less weather or not I live or die so when we get back to the village I am going to request a team transfer from the Ho..ka..ge.. yelled Naruto his voice becoming weaker thoughout his statement as the blood loss was finally taking it's toll on him.

He fell to the ground and as Kakashi took a step forward to go pick up the blonde genin, he felt a presence and stopped dead in his tracks.

Get Down! he yelled to the other three people in the group.

Just as they all jumped to the groud a sword flew overhead and collided with a tree.

As the group stood to their feet they noticed the tall man stading on the sword and a shorter person standing next to him on a branch who was holding Naruto over their shoulder and it was apparent that he was not in the best of shape as his skin was visibly pale from the ground where they were standing.

The two strangers were looking at the group on the ground when the shorter of the two spoke up. Zabuza-sama is it okay if I take this boy away to administer first aid.

Fine but I still don't know why you picked up that kid. said Zabuza with annoyance being obviously imminent in his voice.

If he wasn't strong enough to survive after that you should have left him to die. stated Zabuza as he looked towards his shorter companion.

I'm sorry Zabuza-sama. stated the person.

Whatever but when your done helping that kid get him out of here I already have one slave I don't need another one. said Zabuza boredly

You will face punishment as well when I return from eliminating these pests Zabuza said with a slight hint of lust in his voice.

Y...Yes Zabuza-sama said the person with a hint of fear in their voice. They then leaped of with Naruto still over their shoulder.

Hey sensei they are taking Naruto what do we do? asked Sakura.

Forget about him right now Sakura we have to deal with him. said Kakashi as he pointed towards the man who was still stading on his sword in the tree.

Yea it's not like we need that pathectic dobe anyway. stated Sasuke with smugness immenent in his voice.

Yea your right Sasuke-kun. said Sakura

Meanwhile:

Hey were am I? asked the blonde as he was beginning to regain conciousness and he realized he was moving.

He then heard a voice that was soft to his ears.

I am taking you to give you first aid since your teamates are to incompetant to help you. said the stranger.

Thank you, I guess but are you my enemy or my friend? he asked weakly.

Huh i guess that right now im not a friend or foe so i guess we can be aqquaintences okay. said the person with a slight giggle.

Okay nice to meet you my name is Na..ru..to. he said weakly as he began to drift back into unconciousness.

My name is Haku nice to meet you Naruto. the person responded

. Nice to meet you too...Haku thats a pre..tt..y name. saod Naruto as he slid into unconciousness and was unable to notice the blush plastered over Haku's face.
