Chapter 2: A new Life
Out in a forest a group of bandits were running for their lives.
It was a simple rob and grab moment where they raid some small village and grab whatever they want and have some fun while there at it. They had soon gone and form a camp so they may rest. There were three groups of bandits in total were twenty and they were drinking with laughs how they killed their victims or how they raped the men's daughters then killed them, they all found it amusing. What they didn't know that on a branch hiding was a figure crouching and looking down on its prey.
This figure was tall for its age. A young boy with mid long blond hair reaching to its shoulders not bothering to tie it up. The boy was wearing an outfit of the mist and would have been mistaken for a hunter Nin. The figure just looked at the bandits with disgust under its mask. The boy went down slowly from the tree but not like a human, no he went down on all fours like an animal. The bandits didn't even noticed him so the figure seeing a bandit dozing off near a tree went to him first. Poor bandit didn't even get a chance to open his eyes as the figure had summoned these majestic gauntlets and with a quick swipe slit the man's throat.
There were only nineteen left and still they didn't notice that one of their fellow men had just died. So the figure waited again standing in the forest not caring if they spotted him. The hunter Nin look alike then noticed a bandit walking towards a bush knowing that the man must have drank too much.
The man stood while unzipping his pants and releasing his liquid and that's when he heard a noise. "Hey man if you're coming to take a leak find your own bush." The bandit chuckled, but noticed that that footsteps kept coming closer. "Hey man what I just told you…" The bandit turned his head to the left a little to see who he was talking to, but with wide eyes tried to scream only to have a hand cover his mouth and with a quick strength and movement the boy who was stalking the bandit snapped the bandit's neck letting the corpse fall down with a thud.
The boy went back to the rest of the group giving off an aura of death indicating that he was just going to end this now. His gauntlets still out were relaxed and clenching waiting to get smeared by its victims blood.
Just when the young boy was near them three bandits caught the site of him and yelled indicating that their camp was discovered. The leader of the bandit just stood up from the rest. He was wearing a black bandana on his head with a white t-shirt and black pants. The leader also had three swords on him which was strange to say the least since usually bandits carried one and well samurais carried either one or two depending on their skills, yet this one bandit is carrying three.
The leader spoke with a calm yet rough voice. "Hey kid…" the young boy who had killed two bandits stood still to look at the leader behind his mask. The leader did a quick count and noticed that two of his men were missing. "It would seem we are facing a ninja boys." The leader noticed that some of his men were silent and most of them flinched. "Tell me kid… did you come here to collect the bounty on my head?" The boy just stood there as the wind blew sending a cold breeze. That is when the leader noticed that the boy had decided to go on all four like some animal. The leader just closed his eyes and gave a chuckle. "I may have a challenge here today." Most of the bandits just gave a shock expression at their leaders words.
The distance between them all was not that far away from each other. So one of the bandits decided to charge with a battle cry and with it a few more bandits came along with the charge, yet the leader himself stayed behind and started to walk back while still facing the boy. The leader for some reason could tell that the boy was more focused on him and not his men. The leader just whispered the words "Fools" as he also noticed that a thick mist was forming behind the boy and with the thought the leader had his eyes wide open for he knew that he would not just be facing any ninja. No! He will be facing the ninja known as the Red Mist.
All the bandits noticed the mist and also noticed that the boy had been consumed by the mist disappearing within it.
"Where is he!" yelled a bandit.
"How should I know? This dam mist is to dam thick I can't even see my own legs!" shouted another bandit. Just then they heard one of their fellow comrade's scream out and while it was quite they could hear the 'thud' of a body falling. "What the hell? Who just got killed!" questioned the same bandit.
That is when everyone noticed that the mist they were in started to turn red. Another bandit that was near the first bandit that shouted noticed the wetness on his face, hands, and well everywhere on him. His face said everything as it was the look of fear, disgust, and most of all… despair. That bandit started shaking and dropped his blade on the ground. The other thug that was with him heard the sword. "Hey what's wrong with you? Pick up the dam sword!" he shouted only to hear the man he was shouting at say-
"It's blood." He whispered. "The mist is blood!" is when he shouted. And with that declaration the body counts of the bandits started to decrease as one by one each bandit started to hear the fellow criminals scream out the pain, to scream out for help. And just like that the mist started to get thicker and thicker with the color red.
That one bandit that had dropped his sword fell on his knees and started to shout to any of his fellow friends hoping to receive an answer, yet there were none. The bandit just shut his eyes hard and started to cry and that is when he heard the footsteps. The footsteps of his doom. Each step was like an antagonizing moment for him. His heart started to pound more and more and yet for some reason he started to laugh.
The figure was now in front of him claws drenching in the blood of the thugs, bandits, criminals or whatever you may call them.
The bandit just heard the dripping and slowing yet steady he lifted his head and saw the boy covered in blood from his fallen brothers and with a firm voice the bandit said "I am ready." The boy just walked behind him and the man could feel the claws on his neck.
The boy finally spoke and with a quiet voice he told the bandit "It will be quick and painless." The bandit smiled and just as the boy claimed the man fell onto the ground his neck sliced off clean.
The mist started to dissipate and when it did the leader just stood there in awe as he saw all his men that followed him on the ground dead. He had heard each and one them scream and die, yet it was just hard to believe that a young kid no older than twelve probably had just killed all nineteen bandits with ease. The sound of footstep alerted him back to reality as he saw the boy walk over the dead and put a distance of five yards between them. The leader just gave a smirk. "It would seem I am the only one left for you to kill…just know." As he was saying this he pulled out all three swords. "I won't fall that easily." He firmly stated as he held his both his blades on his hand and his third blade in his mouth. To say the young boy was surprised was an understatement for never has he seen a style like this, yet it interested him further.
The man with the three blades rushed toward the boy and swung his blade in an incredible speed that could have gotten the boy was it not for his training. The man swung each blade beside the one in his mouth and with each swing the boy would always manage to dodge them and try to counter attack by either landing a kick, punch, or a swipe from his deadly gauntlets that is until the boy was backed up to a tree and knew that he had little time to try and escape. The leader saw this and swung both his blade horizontally hoping the slice the kid in half, but the boy using his gauntlets held firm to the tip of the blades almost piercing his waist and neck. The man applaud at the strength the boy showed yet he smirked and the boy saw this and noticed that he still had his last blade in his mouth. The man just tilted his head in an upright angle and with a strong downright swing aimed his blades to slice the boy's neck. That is when the man's blade was countered by another blade, but the strange thing was that it was not someone else's blade… no this blade came from the boy and by the way the boy moved the man knew the boy was also surprised at this, for it would seem the gauntlet was not just for show with its sharp claws. No it would seem the gauntlets had some hidden blades in them as well that the young boy didn't even know himself.
As the right arm of the boy held the blade no sooner another blade from his left side came out and with a quick movement the man backed away from the boy leaving some space. That blade of his would have went through his neck was it not the fact that he felt a slight movement on the left hand of the boy.
Now the leader just stared at the child that was marveling at his new upgrade to his gauntlet. "Seems like I have to train even harder now with this new set of blades." Stated the boy as he spoke a second time. The man just stood still as he gripped his blades on both hands and teeth for the man was thinking that he was not going to lose here. "Well then…" the man just focused his eyes on the kid as he spoke behind that mask of his. "Let us continue to where we left off."
The boy dashed in an incredible speed shocking the man as he pulled one of his blade upright while the left one on his side protecting his midsection. The boy was hoping to get the advantage on the man by trying to either cut him vertically or horizontally, but this man was quick to react. The boy kept putting pressure at the man, but the man didn't let up as he head butted the kid which caught the young fake hunter Nin by surprised. The boy staggered back a few steps while the man took that moment to bring his blades into an X formation and with a mighty swing unfolded his arms swinging them apart hoping to decapitate the Nin. The boy quickly using some flexibility did a back handspring missing the blades by a few inch, but as the man unleashed his attack he also left himself wide open for he had leaned forward hoping just in case the boy would have gone a few steps back so that he may deliver a combo attack, but was just surprised to know a kid can bend that way.
The boy delivered a back legged kick onto the man's chin causing some of his teeth to shatter somewhat since he was still holding his blade on his mouth. "It would seem that third blade of yours is meant only to give a surprised attack and nothing else I presume?" Spoke the boy as the man just regained his composer. "Just so you know that I will have to end this quickly, but know this that you were a worthy swordsmen that has surprised me." The man could hear the boy give a sigh which angered the man thinking that the kid had this and already won. "I do not believe that you have noticed that while you were busy letting your men die that I had created a clone." The news shocked that man and had totally forgotten that. How could he have forgotten that… the kid was a ninja of course! The man felt a presence behind him and quickly went to strike whatever was behind him only to strike at the kid he was fighting only to turn into water. "It's over…" the man reacted to slow already…
The man felt a sting of pain in his chest and noticed two blades sticking out of him. The man just coughed blood as he dropped all three blades. "So…" he wheezed out. "This is the end?" there was no reply as the boy pulled out both his blades horizontally ending the leader of the bandit life.
The boy stood there motionless as he stared at the body and then walked up to it lifting the head and with a quick motion using his new blades sliced off the head. The boy then grabbed a scroll from his pocket and sealed the head while grabbing another scroll from his hidden pockets and sealed the three blades. The boy just looked around and only saw blood and bodies everywhere and with a slight movement the boy turned into puddle and disappeared.
(Hideout)
A man covered in bandages was sitting near a fire as he sharpened his overly large blade and opposite of him was a young female cooking a meal. The man stopped his task and turned his head slightly to the left and noticed a puddle forming till it had the shape of a young boy. The man gave a dry chuckle. "Naruto… your entrances are always interesting to observe."
The boy that had his clothes still with blood took his mask revealing his spikey mid long hair with whiskers on his cheeks gave a fox like grin as he stared at his sensei. "I have been practicing on my other shushins as well." Naruto said as he tossed both scrolls at his sensei. "That one on your left holds the head of the man with the bounty… his name I totally forgot Zabuza-sensei and the right one holds his weapons."
Zabuza gave a smirk thinking how the man that died by his students hand had a very good bounty on him and surprised him as well since the man was said to be very skilled in his blades. "Boy truly you will surpass me… or I can be wrong." Zabuza gave a wary look as placed the scrolls down and gripped the handle of his blade. "You may have already surpassed me."
Both Zabuza and Naruto stared at each other till they felt a chilling breeze and noticed that the girl that was with them was sending a deadly aura as she was holding onto the wooden spoon with a smile that will guaranteed pain if a fight started when they were about to eat.. "Now Zabuza-sensei and Naruto-Kun… it will be wise that you two don't fight as I am almost done with supper." Both males just froze in place. "I would hate it if my supper was ruined by two males that seem to go overboard whenever they fight."
Naruto spoke giving a nervous chuckle. "Ne Haku-Chan you can be very scary sometimes." Said Naruto as he walked by her and planted a soft kiss on her cheeks."
Said girl just looked at the boy and gave a smile…a smile that made Naruto still nervous. "Naruto-Kun?"
Naruto just blinked many times, "Yes Haku-Chan?" next thing he knew his ear was being pulled by the girl.
"What have I told you about getting your clothes stained by blood?" said Haku as she pulled his ears and hearing how it was hurting.
Zabuza just stared in amusements as he saw two of his students arguing about blood on one's clothing and how it is hard to remove it while washing. The leader of the group gave a breath indicating how he found it strange that two students of his that are by far stronger than him and also dating each other can act like this. Honestly it's like they don't care that they are constantly running and hiding from hunter-Nins or how they have to kill bandits to find money or asked for odd jobs.
Zabuza coughed and got the attention of his students. "Naruto…" Naruto who was now free nursing his ear gave his full attention to his sensei. "You did well today with the bounty." Naruto gave a nod. "With this hopefully we can gather more resources needed to aid the rebels to defeat the Mizukage."
It had been five years now that Naruto had joined the group with Zabuza and his new girlfriend Haku, and in those five years many things have happened. Zabuza had started to train Naruto in the way of silent killing along with Haku and with the hunter Nin disguise it helped to know that they were somewhat safe since some ninjas would pass by them and not question them since they believed that Haku and Naruto were hunter Nin searching for some criminal. Now Zabuza had told Naruto of his plan and even stated that he was using Naruto as his tool, yet Naruto did not find it harsh that he was being used for just like Haku for Zabuza had given Naruto purpose to live and fight. Now as Zabuza trained both him and Haku they also encountered two brother whom named themselves the Demon Brothers who were known as Gozu and Meizu. Young children probably same age as Haku being at sixteen or so. They were at least in Chunin while Naruto and Haku… well Zabuza can just say that those two were stronger than him and he was impressed to know that both kids put everything while training. Haku was faster thanks to her bloodline and Naruto? Well Zabuza confirmed thanks to Naruto telling him how the village he lived in had basically kicked him out kept telling him he was a demon and how he was always called a 'Fox'. That day Zabuza gave a mighty laugh thinking that he was in luck when he was in possession of the nine tail Jinchuriki and not only that but Naruto also had the famous Rinnegan.
Speaking of those eyes Zabuza could see that Naruto had no control over his eyes since they were on 24/7. "Naruto…" said man as his student once again gave his attention to his leader. "How are the training with your eyes?"
Naruto just shut his eyes and released the air he had in him. "All is well I have yet to fully master it… if anything it would have made my battle with that leader of the bandit much easier if I wanted to use them, but I went against it." Zabuza just gave a nod at his words and decided to get up and serve his meal.
Haku looking at the man that was like a father to her just stared at him as he poured his meal and then saw how her boyfriend was doing the same. "Zabuza-sensei…" man just stared at his only female student. "Where are the brothers?" Haku asked this because as she went to get some vegetables and some other ingredients for the meal she came back and noticed that the brothers were not around.
Zabuza staring at the sky noticed it was getting dark, but none the less answered the questioned. "Don't fret Haku… they only went to gather any information on jobs that may need ninjas like us." Haku just nodded and went to pour her own meal as well.
It was a well hour as it passed till Naruto just remembered about his fight and how he unlocked his new set of blades and decided now to tell his sensei and girlfriend. Naruto stood up and unsealed his gauntlets and then focused on his hands to which the blades were now seen. Zabuza and Haku were amazed now that Naruto had new set of blades. Both sensei and student were still amazed at the gauntlets.
The gauntlets were as beautiful as always yet they just noticed that the color had changed. Instead of the color they once were when Naruto first acquired them they were now black with red, and instead of a fox curled up it was now bearing its fang like it was ready to kill. The blade themselves seem to be extending out of the upper hand showing its clean silver shine to them all. The gauntlet as they see it now was black on the finger tips as the claws and the rest were red with a fox head on the side of the hands as if the jaws were part of Naruto's fingers and the eyes glowed a deep crimson color. Naruto knew very well what he contained and he has not once relied on the power within him even though Zabuza tells him to train to use it, for even if he says that Naruto would decline on that training for he feared that if he unleashes that power he wouldn't be able to stop using it.
Naruto began to tell his fight to his sensei and how he was saved by his gauntlets. Zabuza was intrigued by this and was wondering if the fox was helping the kid get stronger if so what would be that purpose. Zabuza wanted to ask more questions till he noticed a tiny looking toad land his feet.
Zabuza face became serious and his two students noticed the change instantly. The two youngsters were about to ask if their sensei was alright but he beat them first. "Stay here Naruto and Haku… wait for the Demon Brothers till I return." Both students question their master but gave a nod. Zabuza gave a return nod "Good I'll return as fast as possible. I have something to do." Zabuza disappeared in a gust of mist.
"Man I need to start practicing on that shushin of his…" spoke Naruto as he and Haku were now alone. "It's so awesome!" Haku gave a sweat drop at her boyfriend's antic but agreed for it was cool to disappear like that.
Zabuza was now following a red looking toad…
(Flash Back)
After that fateful day when he saw Naruto save Haku he was always on guard ever since he saw the famous Jiraiya. He questioned why he gave him a nod and it was after a month that the legendary toad sage had shown himself to Zabuza once more, and when he did Zabuza had his famous Kubikiribocho ready to do battle even though he knew that he may not win.
It was a good thing that the kids were out hunting for their meal so they would have to hear or see this moment.
"Put that blade away boy…" Zabuza did not let go of his blade and still had it ready for battle. The toad sage just gave a sigh and gave a serious look and blasted Zabuza with enough killer intent that it started to make the Ex-Mist Nin sweat. "I only came to talk about the boy…Naruto." That got Zabuza's attention as he placed the tip of the blade deep in the soil of the ground.
Zabuza had his hand on the handle just in case but looked deeply in to the man that can kill him with ease.
The sage just looked at Zabuza "How is he doing so far?"
That caught the Demon of the Mist off guard but regained his composure, "What's it to you pal?" asked Zabuza with his own question as well.
"I'm his godfather…" again that caught the Mist Nin off guard. "And as his Godfather I need to know how he is doing."
Zabuza let go of his blade relaxing now. "He is doing well…" Jiraiya gave a smile. "I have already started to teach him the ways of being a Nin." Jiraiya didn't say anything giving Zabuza the hint to continue his talk. "For a kid his age he has already learned many things that I never knew a kid like him can learn… he trains none stop and always seems to push his limit." Stated Zabuza with a hint of surprised yet pride. "Honestly this kid is like a gold mine-…" Zabuza stopped mid-sentence when he saw the look of Jiraiya.
"If I were you I'll watch what I say about my godchild…" the sage spoke with a hint of anger. Zabuza noticed his hands shaking and knew to watch what he says now.
Zabuza was breathing slowly now as he tried his best not to show any fear, but was failing miserably yet none the less he continued. "Also…" Zabuza gave his own serious face. "I know what he contains." A kunai was near said man's throat as he was shock to see the speed of the sage.
"Does he know?" questioned the hermit and when he saw Zabuza give a nod he cursed himself. "How did he react?"
Zabuza told him how Naruto cried and started to scream at whoever placed this burden on to him. Zabuza told the hermit how each night he would be chased, hurt, beaten, and worst hang by his life as the ninjas and civilians would always try and kill him. Jiraiya eyes were wide and had released the kunai from the Mist Nin neck. Zabuza saw how the man's knuckles were clenched and were turning white.
"Also…" Jiraiya looked up still angered. "He has the eyes of the great sage himself." Never would he guessed that the great hermit would be this shock, but Zabuza heard a faint whisper that sounded like 'He too has it' Zabuza was curious and was going to see if he can get any answers.
Jiraiya pulled out a scroll and tossed it to the missing Nin stopping from Zabuza from speaking. "That scroll has Justus for Naruto that he can learn." Zabuza took the scroll and put it away. "Also what are his affinities?"
"Wind…" started Zabuza as he saw the man he was facing smirk. "Water…" This time he saw the man raise his eyebrow. "Fire…" this time the man's eye were wide open. "Earth and lightning." Jiraiya should have known since having the eyes of the great sage was said that the man himself was able to use all elements.
"Anything else?" Said the baffle sage as Zabuza gave a nod.
"Naruto is also combing the elements." Zabuza stopped as he heard the man laugh. "Is there something amusing?"
The sage hermit just nodded saying no. "It's nothing."
Zabuza just ignored his outburst. "That kid is truly a genius to start trying to copy Haku's ability…the ice release." The sage just gave a nod.
"Well that scroll should be good for a good month or two… I'll contact you in those times." The Leaf Nin turned around ready to live till he heard Zabuza say "Stop". Jiraiya gave a slight turn of his head to see the man. "Is there something you may need?"
Zabuza just swallowed the lump in his throat. "I would want funds for this plan I have that will-…"
Zabuza was stopped as Jiraiya gave a smirk as he was now fully staring at the mist Nin. "Don't worry I'll have some of my contacts inform you of some missions that will help you with your rebel to over throw the Mizukage." Zabuza had his eyes wide open as how the sage knew his plan. "I know many things and it's my job to keep track of them since I'm the spy master in my village." Zabuza gave a nod which in turn made the sage disappear in a swirl of leaves.
(Present time)
There were times where the sage himself would appear or random people that the hermit himself sent to meet the ex-Mist Nin. As of right now the Demon of the Mist was wondering what the hermit may need since right now Zabuza was well occupied. Zabuza kept walking till the little toad disappeared and in front of him was the Toad sage himself smirking.
Zabuza found a tree and decided to lean on it. "So what business you have with me now?" asked the missing Nin.
Jiraiya for his part just stood there smirking and gave a nod saying there was no business. "Just here to talk that is all." Zabuza gave an understanding look knowing that it would mainly be about his young apprentice. "I must say… those gauntlets of his are impressive and I seem to recall you not telling me about them?" asked the sage still smirking. Zabuza was about to answer but the toad sage spoke again. "I am to guess that the fox gave it to him?" Zabuza gave a nod. "Now…" Jiraiya's smirk was gone as he placed his right hand on his chin. "The main question is why the fox gave him those gauntlets?"
Zabuza decided to tell the great hermit on when those gauntlets appeared.
"So it was out of protection that those weapons of his appeared… interesting." Spoke the hermit. "It's was also quite interesting of him using his skills that you taught him to kill all those bandits in a swift fluid motion." Zabuza was slightly shock that he witnessed Naruto on his battle since Naruto's senses were sharp that even the kid himself can spot Zabuza without any problem. "From your expression I am guessing that you didn't expect the kid to spot me?" his answer was received when Zabuza gave a nod. "The kid is good, but he still has a long way to go."
Zabuza gave a mild evil chuckle which made Jiraiya question for said man's action. "You have no idea what the kid can truly do… that display you saw was simple for him." Jiraiya felt a shiver for some reason from the mist Nin words.
"Well I have no scroll for the kid right now, but soon I'll take the kid from your grasp and return him home." Spoke the hermit with a serious look.
Zabuza for his part stood up straight and glared at the man. "What?!" shouted Zabuza as his eyes were wide open. "You intend to take the boy back home to where he was considered a demon and a threat in his village?!" exclaimed the Mist Nin as Jiraiya was not fazed by the yelling. "I have taught the kid so many things! I even consider him as my…" Zabuza noticed a tear had fallen from his face and realized he was shedding tears? But why? Both Haku, Naruto, and the Demon Brothers where his tools yet all those times training and being together has made him feel that they are no longer his tools but yet his family.
Jiraiya noticed the man stop in his sentence and knew how he must feel but he had to do what was needed since his own sensei the Third Hokage has been asking for the blond kid for so long and Jiraiya has kept his lie for so long and was afraid that his lies may catch up to him sooner or later. Jiraiya gave a long sigh. "Naruto Uzumaki is the container of the Kyuubi and his birth place is Konoha." Started the sage. "I understand that his life was hell there and I am grateful that you have trained him hard for those many years, and because of that I know that Naruto will be able to protect himself." Jiraiya walked up to the swordsman and placed a firm hand on his shoulder. "Beside I also plan on training himself since it is my right as a God-Father." He said with a smirk.
Zabuza just stood there and without thinking swatted the sage's hand from his shoulder and started to walk back to his camp. "Tell me one thing … hermit." Zabuza spoke the ending with hate. "As Naruto was growing I noticed his looks and I must ask…" his face became so serious that it actually made the sage himself flinch knowing what the Nin may say. "Is Naruto the son of your villager's home… the Fourth Hokage?" the toad sage said nothing only having a grim look. Zabuza had his answer and walked off, but then stopped. "You disgrace his legacy by leaving him to suffer." He stated and walked off.
Jiraiya just stood there knowing that the Mist Nin was right. The sage himself could have done something to help the kid, but was too focused on his spy network and well his 'Research'. It hurt the Sage, but he told the swordsman what was needed to be done and with that the sage started to walk off till he felt a massive killing intent.
The sage looked up on a branch and noticed the eyes of the great sage himself with blond hair and whiskers mark on his cheek. Jiraiya cursed himself and was surprised to know that the kid had somehow managed to hide himself from two very strong Ninjas. Jiraiya fixed himself as he stared at the boy. "Uzumaki Naruto."
Said boy jumped off the branch as he stared at the man that helped his family for so long. Naruto just stared at the infamous Sannin. "How much did you hear?" the man said as he stared at his God-child.
"All of it." Was his answer and Jiraiya once again cursed himself for letting the kid get the drop on him. "What do you think then of what I told your sensei?"
Naruto just stood there eyes glaring at the Sannin. He hands were free from his gauntlets and were clenching his fist. His teeth were grinding from the anger he was holding and for a moment Jiraiya noticed a small trace of red chakra leaking out of the boy, but immediately stopped. The sage was sweating profusely thinking that the boy was going to lose control, but it went away quickly just as it came.
"I shall not go my dear GOD-FATHER!" shouted Naruto as Jiraiya moved a step back. It was like he can feel the boy's power from just that scream.
Jiraiya took a step forward. "Naruto if you did hear everything then you know that the Leaf is your home! Your own father chose you to be the vessel and be seen as a hero! Both your parents Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki died to bring you to this world!" he shouted as he used his hands to put more feelings to it. "Don't you care about your home? About your friends that you left?" the sage had his head down as he stood there silently. "What of the man you considered as your grandfather?"
Naruto just kept looking at his God-father and then his eyes became calm for just a moment. "I shall cherish those memories I have with those whom have loved me and taken care of me…" he started when his eyes became full of anger once more. "But I will never forget what my own village did to me when I was supposed to be considered their hero!"
Naruto was then pushed back to a tree having the Sage move quickly to place his forearm on the kid's throat. "If we had done that then the enemies of your father would have found out and attacked the Leaf!" still putting pressure but gave a curious look seeing as the boy was not struggling. "The leaf sustained heavy casualty that day the Fox attacked and the Third and I knew that we had to keep it a secret from everyone else. Only a few knew that you were the son of the Fourth." Now confused as the boy was still allowing this and was not struggling, but he kept speaking to the boy and to see if the boy would make and movement put more pressure on his throat. "There were so many that wanted to have you in their clan home, but then there would be rumors or questions if they were going to use you an betray the Hokage. We couldn't allow that to happen and so as I went off with my spy network my Sensei the Third placed you in the orphanage thinking that you would grow up as a normal child." Jiraiya said that part with sadness knowing that it didn't go well.
Jiraiya looked at his God-Child and noticed no life in those pupils of his; no care what so ever like if it didn't matter to him anymore. That is when the sage felt a sharp object on his spine. He could feel the tip of it almost grazing his skin. He turned his head slightly and was shock to see his god-child staring at him with his gauntlets out. The sage turned his head back at the boy he was holding when the boy smirked and turned to water. "And then it was no sooner when I had abandoned my home did you realize the pain and suffering I went through." Stated Naruto as he pulled back his blade and let it disappear to the tattoo on the back of his palm.
Naruto started to walk away till he stopped and bit his thumb and smeared it on his right upper shoulder. A puff appeared and in Naruto's hand was a big scroll in which Jiraiya noticed right away and before he can speak Naruto tossed it to the man which he got it with one hand. "A fool from that village of yours ran near us and tried taking our belongings. He was a fool to think he was able to match my girlfriend back then." It was indeed a foolish thing that man did since it all happened like a few months ago. "The scroll did have some interesting things that I picked up."
Jiraiya just stared at the boy thinking how much he learned since inside the scroll contained many forbidden Justus. "Take the scroll for it has no use to me anymore and I wouldn't sell it since I knew that almost most of those Justus are very dangerous." Jiraiya just did some hand signs and it puffed away.
Naruto continued to walk till he heard his god-father shout to him. "Naruto just think about it… at your current age you are considered a low Jounin and you can easily defend yourself. Don't you know how much everybody misses you?" Naruto said nothing and made Jiraiya serious. "If you don't come back I'll have to use force and… I'll make sure not to stop the hunter Nin from tracking you since I've been delaying them and telling them false information." Jiraiya saw the quick flinch and knew he had it. If the boy was anything like his father and mother he would do what is right and come back to the Leaf even if it meant leaving his girlfriend.
Naruto stood still for a while and slightly turned his head to the right revealing his one eye to the hermit and with a calm yet confident voice he said. "If anyone comes towards those I love I will personally kill them with my bare hands even if it is someone from the Leaf for I will not hesitate to stop them orEND THEM…" Jiraiya's eye were wide open and for some reason inside his head he smirked. Just like his parents. His parents would do what is right, yet at the same time when it came to those they loved they will not stop at anything to protect those whom they love. "And let you know Jiraiya I am cutting all my ties with Konoha for as of today Naruto Uzumaki or Namikaze never exist for my new name shall be Naruto Momochi."
Jiraiya kept that smirk. 'That brat will be one tough kid and will surpass all the previous generation…still disowning his last name and changing it? Still that kid will be good I know it for I know for sure he is the Child of Prophecy.' Thought the Sage as he was getting ready to leave.
Naruto walked off and heard the man that was his God-father whisper a few words. "Good luck Brat… you'll need it." The man had disappeared and Naruto just gave his own fox smirk.
(Base)
Naruto was already heading back till he heard his girlfriend scream and shout and with his enhanced hearing heard his girlfriend talk to their sensei.
Before he left he had told his girlfriend and the demon brothers when they came which was like three minutes when Zabuza left that he was going to go check something really quick. Nobody stopped him.
"What do you mean Naruto is going to be leaving us?! How can you say that? He has been with us for so many years now!" Haku was walking back and forth in front of her sensei and the two Demon Brothers. "I will not let this happen!" she shouted.
Zabuza was getting a migraine from the yelling he was hearing, but stared at his only female student. "Look Haku it's non-negotiable. He has to leave whether you like it or not. He is from the Leaf and it is high time he goes back home!" he half shouted losing his temper not at Haku shouting at him but because the sage was forcing him to and had no choice since he knew the sage has been keeping them safe and giving them jobs to survive and have supplies for the rebel.
Haku was shedding tears and the demon brothers were kind of bummed thinking that the blond knuckled head was going to leave their gang. That is when they head something in the bush and got their weapons ready when the person that came out was Naruto himself with a serious look.
"I am not going back to the Leaf and that's final he stated." Zabuza got up and walked to the kid.
"No you have to!" he shouted only to see the boy look at him with those purple ripple eyes. That is when he noticed Naruto mouthing words and instantly Zabuza knew why he said that and without thinking he embraced the boy in a fierce hug shocking everyone in the area. "You spoke to him?" he whispered. Naruto answered with a yes back.
Naruto still hugging his former teacher and someone that was like a father to him. "I promised I won't let anything happen to you guys… I am your tool Zabuza-sensei and this tool shall not abandon you." Zabuza felt a sting at his chest at those words, but none the less felt happy to know that Naruto was sticking with them. It was no sooner that he was still holding the blond Jinchuriki and instantly pulled away.
Zabuza coughed in his hand and made his voice sound menacing. "Well then Gaki… that good and all, but now that all is settle…" Zabuza walked to his blade and heft to his shoulder. "It's time for some training!" Everyone in the area turned white since Zabuza's training was ruthless. Haku gulped while the two brothers held each other crying and Naruto was sweating yet for some reason he can tell that his sensei was happy to still have him.
Things were looking great for them for the time being…
"Water style: Water Dragon Missile!" shouted a very excited Mist Nin as four young children started to run for their lives.
Yup things were looking well…
(A Month later)
Kaiza was sitting and tied up to a log all bruised up while two thugs were beside him giving a smirk while holding the handles of their blades. A short man was also there and was in front of him.
Said short man was chubby and looked like the boss of the two men that were between Kaiza. The chubby man smirked as he stared at the crowd that had formed. "Ladies and gentleman I have been very kind to you all and had made sure nothing bad come to this home of yours." He lied and the people knew as well. "But it would seem we have some people here who wants to rebel against my rule." He pointed his cane at the man that was tied up. "This man is a fool and I will show you what happens to those who rebel against me." He gave him two men the signal at which the unsheathed their blades and when to face said man who was down.
Kaiza with his good eye could see many people shock and fearful, yet he can only focus on his beloved wife and step-son whom he loves. Kaiza just gave a strong smile and saw his family crying.
The two men just lifted their blades up ready to strike and Kaiza shut his eye ready for his death.
The wind blew and Kaiza heard something get cut and then that is when he felt something wet hit his face. He opened his eye and it quickly became wide as did everyone else that was there. The look and gruesome way to kill someone made people scream yet for Kaiza made him question…who saved him.
Gato the tyrant that now owns the land known as The Land Of Waves just witnessed two of his men get cut in half in a swift movement that it seemed that they were already cut in half that the wind just made them move thus making them fall apart. Gato panicked more when a Mist started to form out of nowhere. That is when he decided to cut his loss and run for his pathetic life.
Kaiza saw the mist come and witnessed Gato run. "Don't worry." A voice spoke to him as he felt the rope fall off from his wrist. Kaiza tried getting up but would fall due to his injury but was held up by his saver. No sooner he felt himself get hit by the air itself until he noticed he was in front of his house. Kaiza just started to shed his tears right there and then and turned his head to thank his saver when he realized that he was alone. Kaiza was shocked till he heard his wife, son, and father-in-law run to him each crying and embraced him.
Up in the roof of the house Naruto who had saved the man just smiled behind his mask as he disappeared in a gust of mist.
(Few days later)
Naruto cursed as he undid the binds of his two companions as they were defeated by a Jounin Nin from Leaf.
From the Leaf!
He never expected Tazuna to go seek help from the Leaf, but he can't blame him since Gato decided to hire his Sensei and well Zabuza couldn't say no to money since we needed it to survive and get equipment for the rebel. Also it is not like Zabuza was going to kill the old man? He and Haku persuaded him to make it look like they killed him. Zabuza agreed to it but so far the plan was not going as it was supposed to.
Things were not going to go great as he decided to put both the demon brothers in a scroll that he learned from the forbidden scroll he had obtained and given back to the Toad Sage. Naruto placed the scroll containing the brothers in one of his pouch and went to catch up to Haku and his Sensei.
(Few hours later)
Naruto was next to his girlfriend as they were witnessing the sensei beating the Leaf Jounin. They smirked thinking that the Leaf was going to lose in the water prison justu till they noticed some pale looking kid pull out a scroll and draw on it only for some weird animals came out of it. It did surprise them that the justu did manage to destroy the clones Zabuza had made and it surprised them to know an Uchiha was with them.
Zabuza had cursed thinking he let his guard down by a bunch of fresh genins. Zabuza started to do his water style great waterfall justu when he also noticed that Kakashi the Jounin was doing it as well thanks to his dam one eye Sharingan.
For a moment Naruto was shock as he got a good look on the man that was beating his sensei/father.
Both Naruto and Haku noticed Zabuza hesitate for some reason and that is when Kakashi's water style great waterfall justu had been done and was sent flying towards Zabuza who was still frozen due to the shock.
Naruto quickly placed his hands in front of him and visualized if he was in front of his sensei and with his words he spoke "Shinra Tensei" and just like that an invisible force of wall had blocked the attack of Kakashi's which shocked him and brought Zabuza back to reality only for three needles to get struck at his neck bringing him down.
Kakashi still wide eye noticed two figures appear and he would guess they were hunter-Nin from the Mist, yet he found it strange that they looked so young. One had long blond spikey hair and the other had their hair in a bun.
One of the figures which sounded like a female spoke. "Thank you for aiding in distracting him…"
Kakashi nodded as the other started to speak. "We have been following him for some time now." Kakashi went to the body of the missing Nin to check the pulse and found none.
Again Kakashi gave a nod as he pulled down his headband to cover his eye since it was draining him. Just as the two were about to leave with the body of Zabuza he asked them a question. "Was it you that somehow blocked my justu?" he asked.
The female decided to speak since the male was carrying the body. "We believed it was you?" she relpied back knowing that it was her boyfriend's move that had protected their sensei from a serious blow. Haku noticed Kakashi nodding now and with that she shrugged and disappeared with her partner leaving Kakashi to fall face first with his team shouting whether he was ok or not.
Naruto was walking with his cane and blindfold covering his eyes to visit Tazuna and his family with his girlfriend acting as his guide both were wearing casual civilian clothing. It was strange that his mission is to kill the bridge builder, but he promised he wouldn't since it would just hurt the family of Kaiza. Tsunami was the wife of Kaiza and was just minding her own business while cleaning her front door.
Tsunami noticed her dear friend Naruto and his girlfriend Haku walking towards them. For Tsunami they had met them when Kaiza was saved a day or two later. The two couples had come to visit them to ask if the man known Kaiza was ok. The family never knew the kids and asked if they moved in and they replied yes. That is when the family worried for the safety of the kids saying that they should leave before Gato came to them. Tsunami and her family found it amusing how Naruto the 'blind boy' would say that he can beat anyone with one hand behind his back only to fall. The family loved the couples and saw they always smiled and it made her family see hope that one day Gato would pay for his crimes.
Naruto who can sense the area thanks to his training could tell where he was and where the people were at. Naruto decided to run ahead while his girlfriend would say to wait.
"Naruto-kun wait! You don't know where your heading!" the brunet girl half shouted as she tried to catch up to her boyfriend going in a slow civilian speed.
Naruto for his part just knew what he was doing but had to play his part. "Don't worry Haku-Chan I know where I am-…" that's all Naruto could say until he went head first to the wall of the house of Tsunami who was next to Naruto as he hit the wall and fell backwards.
Tsunami rushed towards Naruto and noticed Naruto laughing while rubbing his forehead. "Ouch… who put that wall there?" he asked chuckling as it also forced the half winded girlfriend and Tsunami to laugh.
Tsunami helped Naruto get up. "Naruto-Kun and Haku-Chan it is good to see you." The women smiled.
Haku smiled back. "It is good to see you as well Tsunami-san." Naruto was now up and beside her. "I had heard that Tazuna had gone and gotten help to stop Gato?"
Tsunami clasped her hands together. "Why yes he did and he just came back today with them." Haku squeezed her boyfriend's hand which made Naruto just use his thumb to relax her by rubbing it on her back hand. "If you want you can come in and meet them… they are very nice people." She said as he turned around to open the door.
Naruto spoke "its ok Tsunami-chan we just wanted to know if Tazuna was ok, and beside Haku-Chan and I are kind of busy today and we really need to go." He started to pull his girlfriend away the house while waving silly at Tsunami.
Tsunami waved back and went inside her house. The Leaf team were all sitting while the Jounin was reading his orange book. Her husband was with her son eating a meal and talking about how the bridge will look like and all.
Kaiza heard the door so did the Jounin. "Hey Honey who was at the door?" Inari and the Leaf team also wanted to know.
Tsunami had locked the door and faced her family. "O it was just Haku-Chan and Naruto-Kun visiting as always nothing new they just wanted to know how we were doing and all, yet I do find it strange that they didn't want to come inside to see the people who saved my father?" The words Kakashi heard made him drop his book as he went quickly outside in search for the person whom he has missed for so long.
Kakashi had rushed outside leaving a bunch of confused people behind beside the pale boy who had his eyes narrowed and had disappeared in the shadows intent on following his 'sensei'.
(Clearing area of Wave)
Kakashi was running everywhere and had even decided to summon some shadow clones in search for the blond Jinchūriki. Kakashi can remember the day when he heard news about how a bunch of civilians and chunins had chased out Naruto. Kakashi had cursed that day since he was doing a mission for the Hokage and even went so far to blame the old man for letting this event happen without his supervision. Kakashi even went so far as well in search for the boy, but after a week of none stop searching he was told to head back.
Kakashi searched and searched and yet now he again couldn't find the small boy he considered his brother. Just when he was about to give up he realized one of his shadow clones had dispelled itself and had given him the memories. The memories that would lead him to the boy and hopefully bring him back home.
Kakashi came to a clearing and noticed the surrounding. It was a sight to see as there were flowers everywhere and that is when he noticed the two couple. He could hardly recognized the boy due to how he had his hair long and tied in a ponytail. He can hear them speaking.
"Ne Haku-chan…" Naruto spoke to his girlfriend as he was laying down and resting his head on her lap while using his right hand to caress her face. Haku who was kneeling and enjoying the moment gave an 'hm'. "After this mission do you think we will be able to finally go to the Mist Village?" he asked.
That question shocked Kakashi having already thinking and knowing what he meant when he said the mission. Naruto and this girl known as Haku were the two Hunter-Nin that aided Zabuza. Kakashi wanted to make himself known and possibly stop their mission till he heard the girl speak.
"Well Naruto-Kun we first need to trick Gato in believing that we killed Tazuna so that we may get paid full but due to the battle with Leaf Jounin it may make things harder..." Said Haku as Kakashi can hear the faint sadness.
So they are not a threat instead the main threat is Gato. "Don't worry my Vixen… I got that all cover up." Naruto smiled as he stood in a crisscross and planted a kiss on his girlfriend even with his blindfold still on. He brought his girlfriend up. "Haku go check Zabuza really quick ok? I'm going to go to the store and grab some ingredients for tonight's meal ok?"
Haku stood still and gave a serious look making Naruto look away. "No ramen ok Naruto-kun…" she stated is a stern voice.
Naruto hung his head down in shame. "Buu~t Haku~-chan!" he began his plead only to be stop by a cold stern look that Naruto noticed ice being formed around him which made Naruto shut his mouth. Haku gave a sweet smile and started to walk away swaying her hips in the process. Naruto just gave a chuckle seeing how her girlfriend was acting.
Though he had his blindfold he was still able to see the outside since the cloth was see through.
After Kakashi noticed the girl leave he was about to make his appearance till he heard Naruto speak once again. "It has been a while has it Big brother?" Kakashi froze in place and started to walk slowly towards the boy with fresh tears being made. Naruto didn't remove his blindfold but was now staring at the man who had been there in his life for as long as he can remember before he was chased out. Naruto didn't blame Kakashi for not being there when he needed him since he knew Kakashi was always busy with missions, yet he had other people that aided him.
"Naruto…" Kakashi wiped away his tears. "It really is you." He embraced Naruto in a hug and Naruto returned the hug.
After a while Kakashi broke the hug and ruffled the boy's hair messing with it. "My, my Naruto you sure have grown." Kakashi chuckled as he noticed the slight blush from Naruto. Said boy swatted his hand and smiled none the less, but that is when Kakashi got serious and reached for the blindfold on Naruto's eyes.
Naruto jumped back. "Sorry brother, but I can't show you what is behind these cloth."
Kakashi wanted to know and was curious as to why Naruto was covering his eyes. "Naruto…" he started. "Do you really plan on heading to the Mist?"
Naruto did not answer. "I said all those things knowing you were hiding brother and I meant everything. I will not return to the place that had chased me away just because of what I hold in me." Kakashi gave a shock look and held sadness. "I am really glad to know you are well and alive and was surprised that Tazuna came for you to ask for help, but know this brother we plan on helping the people here no matter the cost. I have trained hard each day so that I may protect the people I love and one day become the Mizukage." Kakashi slumped his shoulder for he knew Naruto always spoke about being Hokage, but now wanting to be Mizukage? He knew there was no way in changing his mind now. Naruto always did what he wanted and nothing would stop him from completing it.
Kakashi walked to Naruto and just placed a hand on his shoulder and gave his signature eye smile. "Ok Naruto I won't stop you, but I'll still try my best to persuade you to return back ok?" Naruto just gave a genuine smile. "Now." He stood straight facing his little brother. "What do you plan on doing about your mission?"
Naruto walked to a tree and placed his palm on it while facing it. "Just as you heard brother… I plan on tricking Gato in believing that we killed Tazuna and suck every ounce of money that old bastard has and then kill him so that he may not terrorize anyone else." Kakashi then noticed that the tree started to freeze shocking the Copy Nin and then Naruto punched the tree shattering it.
"Naruto… if you can… can you tell me all that has happened to you since the day…?" Kakashi hesitated for a minute, but Naruto had faced him now and spoke.
It was silent for a while and all you can hear was the wind brushing the leaves on the trees, and for a moment Kakashi was sure that Naruto would not tell him anything… yet he was wrong when he saw the boy smile.
"Ya, I'll tell you." Kakashi smiled at the response. "But first…" Naruto moving his mouth spit a needle behind Kakashi and heard something move on top of the bush. Kakashi took out a kunai ready for anything and was now beside Naruto. "Seems like you have a Nin who is not what he supposed to be." The student of Kakashi came out revealing it to be Sai.
Sai came out (A/N: Clothing from Shippuden only longer since he is younger) having his fake smile on.
"I applaud you in sneaking your way and not allowing my brother from noticing you." He faced his brother with a disappointing look. "You have gone down brother since you left Anbu." Kakashi nodded at that. "Still I noticed you were there just as I noticed my brother there as well… so head back to your client's house before I decide to kill you." Naruto sent a good amount of Killer Intent which made Kakashi sweat a bit, but for Sai his smile disappeared and his eyes went wide to feel such fear it was like he can see his own death as well, but none the less he left in a swirl of leaves.
Naruto stared at his brother. "Any idea?"
Kakashi's eyes narrowed. "Yes, and I can tell you that things may not end well now once this mission is over."
Naruto nodded and started to trade information's to each other over the past years that have occurred. Kakashi hearing this was really shock to know that Naruto…Naruto Uzumaki has been put in the Bingo book as the Red Mist, yet it depressed the one eye Sharingan to know that Naruto has been living a life like this. Having to kill and run to make a living, but hey at least Jiraiya came along to help them and knowing that Naruto now knows his parents made things better for him.
Kakashi now decided to tell Naruto of the events that have occurred in the Leaf. Some of the news didn't matter to Naruto much but was glad that the Third has decided to pick up his slack and do something about the village.
All was said and Naruto who was sitting with his big brother decided to speak. "Brother…" Kakashi stared at his little brother. "I want you to train your students for the incoming fight." Kakashi had an idea what he was going to say, but let him finished. "I'll give you a week to prepare because in that week hopefully I would have found the base of Gato and when done I'll kill the midget and all that followed him."
Kakashi just started to think if he should do anything, but decided to let it be. "Sounds a reasonable plan." Naruto gave a nod. "And don't worry about my 'student' I'll speak to him later on."
Naruto just walked off and waved off as did Kakashi knowing that in a week's time things will get very interesting.
A week has passed and Naruto decided to let his sensei know of what has transpired and well at first Zabuza was shock and furious, but soon after a while Zabuza came to think that what Naruto did was going to help them on their mission.
Haku along with the Demon brothers had gone and searched for the base of Gato which was four days after the encounter with Kakashi. They had laid down their plan and would strike when the team met with Kakashi's team. The Demon brothers would start and raid the area knowing that Gato would go and double cross them since they found a diary containing all the fat man's plans.
Seriously who would have a dairy and hold all the secrets in a book?
But what disturbed them the most was that in the book Gato had written how he had to hire someone else just in case worst comes to show… that did not settle well with the Mist team.
While that had happened Naruto and Kakashi had been speaking time to time. Kakashi wanted Naruto not to hold back and to show him his true strength and to test his students in a real life death situation. Still they were going to have to play this along and hope that the kid Sai doesn't spill anything.
(Un-finished Bridge)
Kakashi was reading his porn as usual and Sasuke along with Sai were there guarding Tazuna and Kaiza while Sakura had stayed behind with Tsunami and Inari.
Kakashi then noticed the fog and knew that it was time to play their part…. Well his part of course along with Tazuna and Kaiza since it was only fair they know the plan as well so that they wouldn't fear of what may happen. "Tazuna… Kaiza!" the two men stared at Kakashi knowing what must be done. They stopped what they were doing and Sai went up with them creating three Ink clones each covering their blind spot.
Sai knew what was going on and was contemplating whether or not to go along with it or just do his other mission given by his Lord. He frowned and wondered about the boy known as Naruto. Chased and hunted yet he has trained and is far stronger than him and if he can bet probably stronger than some of his upper comrades. What was it that made him so strong? Was it the bond he had with those around him? Sai's face showed confusion and irritation but ignored it and focused on his mission.
"Well, well, well Kakashi." Said a voice in the Mist. "Seems like we will have our little rematch after all." Kakashi was not startled at this at all since Naruto told him that he told Zabuza of the plan. Still it was always good to play a role in an act.
Sasuke was beside Kakashi and noticed Zabuza had created some Water Clones. Sasuke started to shake. "Seems like your student is afraid Kakashi." Zabuza gave an evil chuckle.
Sasuke for his part stared at the clones. "I'm shaking from excitement." Kakashi gave a nod and Sasuke disappeared in a blur of speed that was probably Chunin speed and had destroyed the water clones.
Zabuza laughed hard. "Seems like you may have a rival Haku." Haku appeared out of the mist wearing her Fake Hunter-Nin outfit. "But I doubt he will be any challenge to you at all." At those words Sasuke seethed. Haku disappeared in a speed that Kakashi was quite surprised since this was his first time witnessing any form of ninja skills from the girl.
Sasuke followed the girl in their own little battle allowing Kakashi and Zabuza to start their own fight.
"Is the plan being set into motion?" asked Kakashi as he noticed the Former Swordsmen pull out his famous blade the Kubikiribōchō.
Kakashi quickly pulled out his own Kunai. Zabuza had charged at the Copy Nin and when they clashed he gave his answer. "The plan has already been in motion soon all of this will be over." Kakashi was struggling but gave a nod. "But let's not worry about the plan for I really want a rematch from the last fight." Both Nin smirked as the broke the struggle and began their fight once again.
(With Sakura)
Sakura was sitting down complaining how she wanted to be with her Sasuke-Kun, but here she was babysitting the client's family along with this strange boy who showed up. Sakura had to admit that the boy was cute, but shame he was blind. She really wanted to see his eyes for some reason. Still all she can think about was her Sasuke-Kun and how awesome he is and that knowing him he will finish this mission in no time.
Tsunami and Inari were sitting down watching television enjoying their time while Naruto who had come along as the 'Blind boy' was sitting next to the kid playing with his hair and laughing at the sound of the T.V. since he can tell it was a comedy show.
Naruto showed up just in case any of Gato's goons decided to show up. Still nothing was going on so he decided to chill and relax until he noticed the pink hair girl. Naruto groaned hearing the girl complain about her Sasuke-Kun and how she wants to be with him.
Fan Girls!
Why would they allow these types of girls into joining the Ninja Ranks? All it's going to do is get them killed, get in the way of the mission, or just be used in a way where if they use her they can get away.
Naruto gave a deep sigh till he felt the chakra spike from his team and knew the plan was set in motion and just when he was about to get up he heard the door knock. Tsunami was going to go get it, but Naruto insisted he go check since he can feel two signature behind that door.
Naruto playing as the 'Blind boy' walked ever so slowly to the door where he opened it revealing two thugs smirking. "Hello? Can I help you?" asked Naruto knowing who he was staring. The two thugs smirked and one of them punched Naruto right in the face sending him flying to the floor right next to Tsunami and Inari.
Sakura got up and pulled out a kunai holding it with both her hands shaking in fear of the two men. The men noticed the girl and knew she was a ninja, but seeing her shake made them lick their lips. "Hey I get the little girl and you get the mother." His partner didn't complain and started to walk to the mother while she pushed her son screaming to run away. The little boy stayed and rushed at the man hitting his stomach hoping for a miracle to happen. The man just slapped the kid hard sending him to the ground.
Sakura was so afraid that she didn't noticed the other man right in front of her already and slapped the kunai away. The man gave a short chuckle. "I am so going to enjoy myself with you little girl." Sakura screamed and tried running only to get grabbed at the wrist and forced at the wall hitting her head in the process. Sakura was feeling dizzy now and the thug just pulled on her red dress to the side and laughed this time. "What is this?" The man was revealing Sakura's chest exposing it. "No bra? Were you expecting me to come get you then?" he said sarcastically. Sakura screamed some more till she was slapped by the man. "Shut the hell up! Your voice is irritating!" he shouted at her. Sakura was crying now thinking that she was about to get raped by some thugs.
Sakura's hands were being held by a hand from the thug. 'Sasuke-Kun help me…' she thought as she closed her eyes hoping for this nightmare to end.
Time seemed to slow down for Sakura as she was just thinking of herself for the time being and not the family till she heard the familiar voice. "Man that sure was a pathetic punch that you threw at me." Sakura opened her eyes and noticed the boy known as Naruto standing up like nothing had happened. The two thugs also noticed this and the one that was about to have his way with the mother walked up to the kid blocking the view from his partner.
"You better stay down kid or else I may end up cutting something." The thug said as he pulled out his blade and had it over his shoulder tapping it with his skin indication that it was out and ready.
The partner didn't see anything from his fellow man as he then noticed the blade of his comrade fall. "Hey! What the hell man?!" the thug that was still holding Sakura yelled. That is when he saw blood dripping on the side and that is when his eyes were wide open from shock that he let the girl go.
The man that was facing Naruto turned his head with eyes wide open. The thug that had released Sakura saw his partner's throat ripped open and saw the man gurgling from the blood that had reached his mouth. That is when the man fell on the ground dead.
The thug stared at the blond boy and saw his eyes for the very first time. Purple eyes with ripples on them and to make it more fearful the boy had a look that said 'You're going to die a slow and painful death'. The thug ran for his life only to hear the boy say "Banshō Ten'in" and next thing he knew he was sent towards the boy as he was now being held by his throat.
The man was gasping for air as he stared at the boy and had fear at looking at those deadly cold purple eyes of his.
Who knew this boy had such strength that he was able to lift him up. The man gripped the boy's wrist trying to loosen the hold only to soon have his neck snap instantly and fall to the ground dead.
Naruto for his part just stared at the body and gave a shrugged as he walked to Sakura who was now shaking more as she just witnessed her first scene of death. The boy whom she thought was blind was actually not blind at all and was coming to her. She closed her eyes thinking he was going to take advantage out of her due to her state only to soon feel her shirt come back up and covering her now. She opened her eyes only to notice the boy was no longer there.
Sakura just started to look around frantically and just saw the mother and son holding each other while whispering "Thank You" to their saver. Sakura regained her self, yet still shaky went to inform her Sensei of what just happened not too long ago.
(Battle)
Haku stood victories as the boy named Sasuke lay on the ground full of needles, thou not dead but down for the count.
Haku also noticed her father figure standing with a few scratches while his opponent was on his knee panting hard. Haku smiled behind her mask as she went to Zabuza's side. Haku noticed that the boy that was extremely pale stood on guard as he was still protecting their client.
"Seems like I win Kakashi." Smirked the Ex-Mist Nin as he held his giant blade on his back.
Kakashi for his part felt horrible that he had lost. Seemed like quitting Anbu has made him a little bit weak. "So it seems." He spoke as he tried to get up only to fail due to his injuries.
Before any more words can be said they heard clapping as the very man they were hired by came to view. He was surrounded by many of his hired thugs each holding their own weapons, yet what caught all the Nins attention was one that has a cloak on him.
"Well done Zabuza… well done indeed." Spoke Gato as he released the smoke he had inhaled in to the air. "Now kill him and the two bridge masters and you shall have your reward." The fat man said as he gave a full blown smirk thinking he had won only to feel sharp claws on his neck.
"I don't think so Fatso." Said a voice that sent everyone around Gato on full alert seeing how a young boy had passed them all and had gotten behind the man that pays their meal.
Gato was scared now thinking how this happened. "Your reign ends here." Just as Naruto was about to end the man's life he jumped away just in time to avoid his head being cut off. Shame that Gato was now on the floor with half his cranium now cut off and dead.
Naruto had jumped to a nearby pole as he stared at the figure that had attacked him. The man revealed his face and as he did Zabuza's eyes were wide open and his teeth were grinding.
Zabuza spoke the man's name in a way that made it seem he just wanted to kill him.
So this was the man that Gato had hired just in case….
"Kurosuki Raiga…" Both Haku and Naruto were now seeing one of the other seven swordsmen of the Mist.
Raiga just gave an exciting laugh which made all the thugs back off and a few drawing their blades as they now lost their meal ticket. Raiga pulled out his Blades known as Kiba and started to generate lightning from them. He stabbed them on the ground and gave a smirk. "Lightning Burial: Banquet of Lightning!" Everyone that was around Raiga soon screamed in pain as lightning was coursing through their body and in a few second they all collapsed dead on the ground.
Naruto had just joined his father figure and brother figure along with his girlfriend. The two bridge builders had already gone home hoping not to get in the crossfire thanks to Zabuza and Haku.
Raiga just walked on the many corpse that he killed and stared at one of his fellow swordsmen. "Zabuza! O how long has it been?" questioned Raiga as he was about to continue his talk only to block to attacks that were aimed to stab him and cut him. The two attackers were the Demon Brothers as they had finished raiding Gato's place and had all the money he had. Both brothers struggled at the shear strength this man had and were pushed away. "My or My! So many people here gathered for a wondrous Funeral!" He laughed as he held his blades together. "Just being in a funeral makes me so happy!" He eyed the Brothers as they had just gotten on the side of their mentor.
Raiga decided to make some lightning and water clones. "Now let this Funeral be a blast!" as he charged at all the Nins.
Zabuza saw Kakashi and knew he wouldn't stand a chance with him. "Gozu! Meizu! Take Kakashi and get him out of here!" Both brothers turned to look at their mentor and were going to question his statement only to avoid a lightning ball that would have hit them were it not for Haku creating an Ice mirror. Both boys did what they were told. "Take the dam Uchiha as well since he is useless laying down like that!" the brothers went off carrying both Leaf Nin to a safe location so that they can return and help their friends.
Zabuza eyed the man with hate. "Raiga what the hell are you doing here?" questioned Zabuza as he and Raiga were now alone staring at each other as Raiga's clones were facing the young Ninjas.
Raiga had his blades ready to kill. "It is quite interesting you see. I was on my own little land hosting Funerals when some thugs came along with the short guy." He pointed at the dead Gato. "He told me he had a job for me and that I would be paid very well." He shrugged and not cared what was happening around him. "At first I was ready to just kill the slob till he told me he also had another ninja…said that his name was Zabuza." Raiga smirked. "That is when I decided to accept his offer even knowing already he was going to try and kill me in the end." He laughed at that thought and had one of his blade pointing at Zabuza while the other one was relaxed on his side. "Now I must commence the funeral of many young kids and the funeral of the great Demon of the Mist!"
Raiga charged forward and brought the blade he had set ready to deal some damage only for Zabuza to quickly twist his body and swing his mighty blade in a circle hoping to at least cut the man, but Raiga anticipated this from one of his old comrades. Raiga got on his knees and slid under the massive blade and got ready to deal with his strike only to get his head grabbed by the 'Demon' himself and pushed to the ground hard, yet somehow which confused Zabuza Raiga had assured that his back didn't touch the ground.
Raiga had his eyes wide open at the unexpected move while he saw Zabuza bring his blade high up ready to cut the lightning user's head off. Raiga quickly extended his leg and aimed at Zabuza's knee cap hoping to try and break it only made him wince and let go of Raiga.
Quickly as possible Raiga landed on his feet and went back charging at Zabuza.
Zabuza regained his footing and placed his hands in a form only both Mist Nin knew. "Hidden Mist Justu!"
The area around Zabuza and Raiga was covered in Mist and all that can be heard now was blades clashing.
(Other Group)
Just before Raiga and Zabuza had begun their fight the clones of Raiga which were six in total had come to them rushing with blades set.
Naruto, Haku, and Sai had taken their own weapons out ready to engage.
Naruto with his own Fox gauntlets, Haku with her senbons ready, and Sai with his Tanto and brush in his mouth clenching them with his teeth. Two clones facing each and one of them.
Naruto wanted to end this quick but hardly knew much of the man's ability and didn't want to use his eyes ability yet since he still can't control them.
Naruto parried his blades with one of Raiga's blades and the second came from above with lightning on the blades. Naruto quickly pulled out the blades hidden in his gauntlets surprising the clone and was stabbed right in the throat turning it to water. Naruto jumped back just in time to avoid a lightning blade pierce the ground. Naruto went in to some hand signs and pulled some water under the bridge as it formed a dragon. "Water Style: Water Dragon Missile!" the dragon went and chased the clone.
What Naruto didn't see was the clone had dispersed and had become lightning itself indicating it was a lighting clone as it formed a lightning style dragon and had clashed with his Justu sending sparks everywhere. Lucky him they were not close to him, but to Haku and the other kid yes. Naruto saw his girlfriend handling the clones so decided…which he had to decide was either help the Leaf Genin or just let him die.
Naruto gave a long sigh as he decided to help the boy known as Sai.
(Sai)
Sai was currently struggling against his two opponents as they didn't even let him make a single Justu and had to stay on the defensive. Still having his brush in his mouth and his tanto on his left hand Sai kept dodging and moving trying not to get cut by the blades of his enemy.
Sai was now on the edge of the bridge and noticed he was trapped now and had no way in escaping. The two clones were in front of him smirking and ready to deliver the final blow was it not Naruto jumping in the air with his blades out from his gauntlets ready to end them.
Both Raiga's felt the blond presence and evaded the blow that would have ended them.
Naruto was next to say to Sai as Sai took the time to recover himself and get some air into his lungs.
"Thank you." Said Sai with his usual look, but Naruto knew he was grateful for saving his life.
Naruto gave a nod and focused on his new enemies. Naruto was lucky that he was able to disable both clones that had chased him, but now he had to use some of his hidden skills in order for them to survive. Yet Naruto didn't want to since the Leaf Genin was here and can give out his secret.
Sai also staring at his opponents had just realized Naruto's eyes and was baffled on how they looked like. Never has he seen those kind of eyes, yet he must report them to his master if he survives.
"You think you can make something big in order to deal with these two clones?" asked Naruto as he kept glancing back and forth from the clones and Sai.
Sai put his Tanto away and had his brush ready. "Yes, but it may take a few minutes in order to draw what I need." Naruto gave a nod and decided to make his own clones.
Summoning two clones by his side Naruto charged forward facing the two clones. The two Naruto clones went to the opposite sides of the Raiga clones while Naruto himself went forward having his blades ready to attack.
One of the Raiga went off to face the two clones while the other clone went off to face Naruto himself. Both clashed in blades as they kept pushing each other. Naruto went with a right swing after releasing his hold on one of his enemies blades hoping to at least hit him, but a skilled swords men knew what was coming and the clone easily blocked it while kicking Naruto in the gut making said boy skid a little on the watery bridge.
Naruto didn't even noticed the water on the Bridge till now and saw the clone rush him once again parrying blows after blows. Naruto then noticed that both his clones were dispelled now allowing the other Raiga clone to come and join the battle. Naruto using each hand to block the killing blows and trying to think of a plan until he heard a roar and turned his head slightly to see the boy known as Sai brush off his brush from his scroll allowing a drawing he drew come to life.
Now said drawing was a large Chinese dragon that if it was for his training Naruto would have been eaten by the dragon. So Naruto pushing the blades from both his attackers to that side jumped a little and sent a kick to the right clone and a punch to the other and landed on his feet before gracefully doing many back handsprings allowing the dragon to come by and destroy the clones, but it didn't stop there as the dragon went on and was going after the clones that were facing Haku.
Haku on her part saw the dragon way before the two clones and had back flipped out of the bridge and landed on the water just in time to see the dragon turn to ink as she also saw the two clones turn to water.
Haku was back on the bridge with her boyfriend and the Leaf Nin.
"Thanks." Was all she said to both her lover and the Leaf genin that had saved her as well?
The three Nins then turned to the sound of blades clashing and went off to where the mist had formed. Naruto made them halt and went through some hand signs and inhaled a huge amount of air as he said. Wind style: Great Break Through!" the giant gust of wind sent the mist away and saw with their eyes wide open that their sensei was now with one arm as his good arm still had his Kubikiribōchō. They can also tell that he was extremely tired and in pain since Raiga had cut off his left arm.
Zabuza was panting no thanks to the short battle he had with Kakashi and now with Raiga. Zabuza was also trying not to show the pain since he had lost his arm due to Raiga allowing himself to be seen wide open only to trick him and slice the arm off. He was losing a good amount of blood and he knew that he needed to somehow end this, but each time he would try and land a killing blow on the twin blade user somehow… just somehow he would anticipate it and escape from it.
Also what Zabuza noticed was that Raiga kept on protecting his back side as if it was something there.
Zabuza felt the wind and saw his student Naruto blow the mist away and had already along with Haku and that other Nin coming to help him.
Just as Naruto was ahead with his eyes revealed and a little red Naruto went to try and pierce Raiga only for Raiga without even looking to jump six feet away.
Haku was the first to be at her adoptive father's side as she used her bloodline to freeze the stump that was there to stop the bleeding. Zabuza grunted at the cold feeling, but none the less the pain was now bearable.
Raiga was just standing there and saw how Zabuza eyes showed caring to the kids and wondered what made the Demon of the Mist to change so much? Was it the kids that changed him? Obviously since he too had changed thanks to Ranmaru who was on his back and helping him.
Still it felt strange seeing one of his fellow swordsman smiling like that. Raiga gave a shrug as he was about to try and end this before it ends up taking longer than it suppose. He was outnumber and knew that even with Ranmaru on his side he would still be in a disadvantage.
Raiga was also planning to run and re-think his plan till he and the rest of the gang heard a loud yell and when they turned to see who gave that awful yell, well let's just say Raiga found a way to probably win this match or at least die trying. He noticed one of the Leaf Nin and the two other kids give a surprised look and guessed that they knew the girl.
Raiga smirked.
Sakura had just came upon the scene of all the bandits dead. She was lost and had no clue where she was going till now. She quickly wished she had stayed and noticed her teammate Sai along with the enemy? She was also staring at some guy with two weird looking blades that was coated with lightning. Sakura was scared now and was in place and can only hear Naruto yell at her telling her to run.
Naruto for his part stared with wide eyes as he noticed Raiga coat one of his blades with Lightning and knew what he was planning and Naruto hated himself what he was about to do and hoped that he can make it.
With speed that Haku, Zabuza, and even Sai never knew went to Sakura in a fast blur just as Raiga threw his blade at the pink hair girl.
For Sakura time seemed to slow down as the blade was thrown at her intending to kill her and just like that she noticed the blond boy whom she thought was blind come in front of her with arms stretched.
Naruto was in front of the girl now and was already saying the Justu he was about to use. "Shinra Ten-!"
Everyone beside Raiga had their eyes wide open and within a few seconds Haku broke it with a dreadful scream. "NARUUUUUUUUUUTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Naruto had his eyes wide open as he felt and tasted the blood that was leaking from his mouth. He looked down as saw the lightning coated blade in him and could tell was sticking out from the other side. He turned his head and noticed Sakura was ok with only having a speck of blood on her face. Naruto felt the pain… so much lightning coursing through his body and felt he was on fire. Never has he felt this not even the villagers did something close to this to him. All he got was beatings and some cuts, but this was something new.
Naruto fell on his knees and held the blade and saw Raiga smiling. Instantly Naruto used a small amount of his Shinra Tensei and pushed Sakura away from him just in time for Raiga to snap his fingers.
Naruto saw the white light emitting from the blade and let out a gasp as he was now covered in lightning that had struck from above.
Zabuza and Haku can only stare in shock that Naruto had moved so fast to save a girl like her and then to be shocked double time when he was struck by the blade. Haku had screamed for her boyfriend and was already running towards him ignoring Raiga and was at that distance when the lightning had exploded on Naruto. Haku can only stare in utter disbelief as she watched first hand her boyfriend get struck by a lightning Justu.
The Justu was on for five second and after it was done Naruto still stood there only he looked black and one could smell the smell of burned flesh.
Haku numbly wobbled towards her boyfriend's body and threw her mask away as she knelt and fell in front of him. Haku was hesitant to even try and touch the body, but instead the body fell forward on her.
In that moment Kakashi had arrived at the scene with the Demon Brothers trying to hold him back. Well one that is since Gozu was holding on to the unconscious body of Sasuke.
Kakashi was tired indeed but none the less worried for his little brother and was worried more when he heard lightning in the area.
Only a few that he failed has he felt ashamed of himself and this time he hated himself more for as he came to view he witnessed a lightning strike at the young boy whom he loved as his little brother and saw how the young ice user went to him shaken and scared.
Kakashi's only words were "No…"
That is when she let everything out and with it her bloodline as well as it went out of control sending spiked of ice towards Raiga hoping to kill the bastard.
Raiga on his part was surprised that the boy's body was not turned to ashes and surprised again to see an ice user alive. He had to dodge so many spiked that would have impaled him were it not his skills of being a ninja.
Raiga was so distracted on dodging that he did not sense Zabuza until he turned his body facing him. Raiga surprised instantly pulled the bundle he had on his back and threw Ranmaru to the side just in time before Raiga was stabbed by the huge blade of Zabuza.
Raiga coughed a huge amount of blood, yet he smiled. "O Zabuza…" he coughed. "Are you upset at me?"
Zabuza just pushed the blade deeper hearing Raiga wince at the pain. Zabuza was crying hard as he witnessed a boy that was like his son get killed in front of his eyes. "You Bastard!" seethed Zabuza as he still held the blade in his only arm.
Raiga could only laugh. "At last… the time has come." Zabuza confused at this saw how Raiga with little strength plunged his blades on the shoulders of Zabuza and made said Mist Nin wince in pain.
Ranmaru who was up and staring at the man whom has protected him for so many years was scared for the man. "Raiga?" the young boy asked.
Raiga just looked at the boy with a sad look. "I am sorry Ranmaru… I promised we will have a funeral together, but it seems I would have to do it alone." Raiga coughed some blood and stared at his fellow swordsmen. "Now Zabuza let a new generation take our place as we finally move on with our life!"
Zabuza could only gasp as how he was about to end his life along with his, but he knew he couldn't escape. This was the end for him so with one final look he stared at Haku. Haku stared at him as well and started fresh tears. "I am sorry Haku… sorry for so many things." Zabuza's body along with Raiga was then consumed by a lightning and all Haku can see was the smile her sensei/father had before his life ended.
It was strange to say the least for the only thing that was left behind were the blades themselves, but all Haku could do was hold her dead lover and know that she was once again alone.
Kakashi on his part stood there… did nothing what so ever to try and help along with the Demon Brothers whom had left the Leaf Nin side in order to go to Haku's side. Kakashi left Sasuke on the ground and saw how his other student Sakura went to Sasuke's side crying. Kakashi can only give a small sigh thinking that from all that has happened she can only think of Sasuke.
Kakashi started to walk to his dead brother's corpse and would have fallen due to his weaken state were it not his other student Sai.
Sai had no emotions showing, yet inside he felt sad and surprised on all that has happened. So Sai held his second mentor making him stand. "There is no point now." Sai said which made Kakashi understand what he meant as they walked to Naruto.
They were all there hovering over Haku and the dead body of Naruto. Haku had not let go of him crying of she had already lost so many.
There was silence in the air and it felt hours that they were there only then to hear a gasp.
Everyone around Naruto were surprised and had wide eyes. The skin on Naruto that was once black started to peel off and underneath it new pink flesh was appearing. In less than 30 minutes Naruto was back from the dead and looked good as new. The sword was out and his wound was closed. Kakashi had to guess along with Haku that it was the Kyuubi that had revived him and healed him.
Naruto opened his eyes revealing his legendary eyes to everyone and noticed Haku crying over him. Naruto placed his hand on her cheeks and saw her smile as Kakashi smiled behind his mask, but Sai was shock yet he will keep his word and not say anything to his Lord.
Sai questioned that though… would he really keep this a secret from his Lord?
Slowly Naruto got up and still felt the pain, but with the help of Haku he was up.
"Where-… where is Zabuza?" ask Naruto as he noticed the area and how it looked like a storm came by and that is when he saw the Kubikiribōchō and one the blades of that one guy named Raiga which was being held by some kid.
Haku looked away and could already tell what the answer was. Naruto gave a sigh and walked passed them as they stared at him seeing what he was going to do.
Naruto walked slowly to his father figure's blade and walked pass the young boy who seemed afraid since he saw the blond boy get killed and was now walking like nothing had happened. Naruto also noticed the boy holding on to the blade of Raiga and since he had the other blade of Raiga in his hand he placed it near the boy.
With some stress and effort Naruto lifted the giant blade and walked to the boy. "What is your name?" Naruto asked.
The boy looked scared and Naruto saw that so he smiled at the boy. "Ranmaru." He said. Naruto gave him his hand and for a while the boy did nothing till he grabbed Naruto's hand.
"You have a gift…" Naruto said and Ranmaru could only nod. "Come we shall go home and make sure you are protected."
Ranmaru on his part felt confused. "Why? I am your enemy!" he began to shout and let go of Naruto. "I helped Raiga kill someone that was close to you!" He started to cry. "Why are you being so nice to me?"
Naruto gave him a hug that made Ranmaru cry even more. "I know that look in your eyes… for I had the same look before I found Haku-Chan and Zabuza-sensei." He started as Ranmaru stared at the blond boy's eyes. "Raiga loved you as his son just as Zabuza loved us like his own flesh and blood and I know for a fact that Raiga would want you loved and protected." Naruto pull away. "Besides… you are his legacy now…" Naruto pointed to the blades the kid held. "You will be the one that will inherit his skills and title." Raiga stared at the blades and smiled and looked back at Naruto and gave a strong nod.
Naruto along with Ranmaru walked back to the group with Naruto smiling at them. "Let's head back and rest… we got lots to talk about."
(Week Later)
The people were celebrating at the creation of the bridge which was named in the honor of Zabuza Momochi and those who fought with him. The bridge was called the Momochi Bridge and everyone cheered for it.
As the people were celebrating Naruto with his group along with Kakashi's were saying goodbye to their new friends and wished them luck.
They had begun their walk when Kakashi spoke. "Naruto…" Naruto looked at him with his eyes revealed. "What do you plan on doing now?" Kakashi knew the answer yet it didn't hurt to ask just in case.
Naruto gave a deep sigh and looked at Ranmaru who had both blades from Raiga on his back and Haku who had decided to claim their mentor's blade making her the new wielder. "As I said I plan on heading to the Mist Village where I shall do everything I can to become the Mizukage." Kakashi gave a sad look but put a smile behind his mask and gave a nod.
"Alright team… time for us to head off back to the Leaf."
Just as they were about to head off Sai went up to Naruto which made said blond look at him with confusion. "Momochi Naruto…" Naruto smiled at his new name. "You are a strange ninja that I have now come to respect and for that I shall not inform those who I follow about your where about."
Sai tuned around ready to leave till Naruto called his name and when Sai turned around he saw Naruto with his hand out. Sai slowly took his hand and shook on it. "It was a pleasure working with you Sai and I hope in the future we can meet once again and work together." Never in his life has Sai felt this feeling and without knowing he smiled… a real smile and with that he left with a nod.
Everyone said their goodbyes besides Sasuke as he remembered the beat down he had received by a female and vowed to kill her next time and take their weapons.
Team 7 left leaving behind the three children on their own.
"Well guess this is it." Ranmaru and Haku looked at him. "It is time we begin our new life!" They all smiled and left to their new home.
