Colonel Myrenzo Uchiha: Well, this is chapter numero uno. I read the reviews and I realize that information on the time skips is definitely needed. So in this chapter, I hope to clear any and all confusion.
Genmcvile: Yeah, you better!
C.M.U: You want to get shot?
Uzumaki Naruto stood on a branch, waiting for his master. He sensed a dark chakra and a flock of ravens seemed to fuse into one sentient being in front of him. Naruto bowed.
"Hello, master Itachi."
"Good day, Naruto-kun. I would like to explain your newest and most important mission, but first, your squadron."
He held out a hand. Naruto stopped to admire the new robe he had been given. Black, with red cloud patterns. He hoped to someday reach his master's rank and receive his own cloak. He didn't know just how in vain that hope was.
He noticed a pile of sand squirming about. It shifted upward. Naruto's well-trained hand slipped silently to his katana. The sand turned into a man, about his own age, with a shock of red hair. But that wasn't his most drawing feature.
His eyes, Naruto thought. What's wrong with them?
His eyes, indeed. They had thick black rings around them, as if he had yet to sleep in his life. And his actually eyes contained so much pain and hurt…
…and bloodlust.
On his forehead was the kanji for love. This befuddled Naruto most. However he did not have time to act on the confusion, because a small puddle of water on the ground literally slithered up the tree, where it became another man, also about Naruto's age.
He had a thick mess of brown hair. Also, his face was almost completely wrapped in bandages. He had a rather large sword on his back, and it wasn't until then did Naruto realize the other man's gourd.
"These are your new partners, both trained by Akatsuki members, and both jinchuuriki hosts. The one with the gourd is Gaara of the Desert. He is an exceptional warrior. His special ability is control over sand. This is Momochi Zabuza, a trained assassin and a master of the silent killing technique.
"Gaara holds the Ichibi-no-Shukaku, the sand spirit. Zabuza holds the Sanbi-no-Isonade, the water spirit. Gaara's demon takes the form of a tanuki, or a raccoon dog. Zabuza, a three-tailed shark.
"Gaara, Zabuza, this is Uzumaki Naruto. He is a master of Katon ninjutsu, Raiton ninjutsu and excels greatly at taijutsu and genjutsu release.
"His bijuu is the Kyuubi-no-Yokou. The fox of nine tails. With his beast, he has slight control over fire, fast healing, and a 'possessed form,' where he gives his body to the Kyuubi for a brief period of taking, making him unstoppable.
"Uzumaki Naruto has been trained by me. I chose to train him because if I hadn't acted, the village of Konohagakure, his home village, would have killed him. Your masters had that same motivation. In fact, that's the Akatsuki's goal, to save those fortunate jinchuuriki and show them their own power. Gaara was trained by Sasori, a great ex-Sunagakure shinobi. Momochi Zabuza was trained by Hoshigaki Kisame. He is my partner and a master of all mist- and water-based ninjutsu.
"Your mission is to join Konohagakure and become official shinobi of the village. Earn their trust. That may take a while, as the only other living Uchiha besides myself is my younger brother Sasuke, and he has left to train under ex-member Orochimaru, who has attacked them before. This has led them to be very untrusting. But once you earn trust, kill the Hokage and use these," at this point he handed them each scrolls which had strange jutsu formulas on them. "To destroy the village. Place one at the Seki-no-Yoh, the gate of leaves. Place another at the Seki-no-Shibu, the gate of branches. And place the final at the Hokage Yama, the mountain with which the faces of previous Hokage are sculpted.
"Once that is done, perform this jutsu."
A scroll appeared in a puff of smoke.
"This is a special art. Perform this at least thirty feet away from the village. The scrolls will react to each other and the whole village will be caught in a kind of space-time rift. Eventually, it will simply disintegrate."
Naruto nodded. He looked at Gaara and Zabuza. Then back at Itachi.
"I understand." They chorused.
Itachi nodded and disappeared. The three shinobi stood.
Naruto spoke first. "We should learn this new technique first. Are we ready to commence with the jutsu?"
"Yes." Zabuza said in his growl of a voice.
"I am ready." Gaara's voice seemed to scratch his very throat. Naruto nodded once more.
They opened the scroll.
-One Week Later-
Naruto lay breathing heavily. Gaara was lying against a tree struggling to stay awake. Zabuza sat against a boulder. "We…we've finally mastered the jutsu." Zabuza growled.
-The Next Day-
The three rogue shinobi strolling into Konoha were no great calamity. Just a strange omen. Each one drew attention to himself. The tallest, a dark-haired man had a face covered in bandages, and a large sword. The shortest had large rings around his eyes and a gourd hanging off his back. The second-tallest looked in many, many ways just like the fourth Hokage, from his hair to his eyes to his physique.
They walked to the Hokage building and walked inside. After about two minutes of getting the run-around, they eventually met the Hokage. She was rather gorgeous, and rather young. She had beautiful green eyes…or eye, seeing as her left was covered, a nice physique and silky silver hair.
"I am Chidori Hatake, but you may call me Lady Hokage."
-Somewhere in a deep jungle…-
Itachi Uchiha walked with a girl. She was beautiful, with blue hair and dark eye shadow.
"Itachi."
"Yes, Conan?"
"I'm not in the branch of Akatsuki you are in. If I may, why did you train Naruto.?"
"As you know, we want their beast inside of them. But before that time comes, we can use them to meet our own gains. Konohagakure is the largest village out of all of the five nations. Destroy it and global dominance is all but assured. We train these beasts for no other reason. They are just tools. And when a tool no longer meets your needs, it is thrown away. Or in this case, recycled."
"So you trained Naruto for 18 years straight?"
"Yes. He is extremely powerful. He could walk at six months. I was very rigorous. By the time he was 6 he could talk formally and was at chuunin level. By ten he was ANBU-jounin level. Now…he is just under Hokage level. We've only trained in that eighteen years, never straying far from the leaf. I used him basically as bartering to get into the Akatsuki."
"And the same is for Kisame-sama and Sasori-sama?"
"I personally don't know their reasons. I know that they are similar though. Jinchuuriki are weapons. We will use them as such."
Conan nodded. "I see." She leaned up to kiss Itachi.
C.M.U: Well, there it is. I think I gave a lot of information in this one. Also, I hope to reveal more and more of the storyline piece by piece. I don't know about you, but I like long stories.
G.M: So please rate and review everyone! Wait….THAT'S IT?! That's my line? You got four sentences, I get a 'rate and review' reminder?! This sucks…
