This is the second chapter of The First Abyssal One.
I do not own Claymore or Naruto.

Hatake Kakashi sighed as he appeared on the roof. What had he ever done to Hokage-sama to get a team that was so obviously dysfunctional? Granted, he could understand why he'd gotten Naruko, what with her being his Sensei's daughter. The Uchiha was understandable as well, and he thought they would be able to get along in a professional capacity at least. They were good choices, heavy hitters. But to then add Haruno The Fangirl, with capitals… Sometimes he wondered what Hokage-sama was smoking in that pipe of his. It was obvious he wanted him to have a Genjutsu or medical-specialist on his team. He decided to push her toward being a medic. Sasuke, while according to the records possessing more talent for Ninjutsu, would have an advantage with his Sharingan, once he activated it.

He noted his first student, Naruko, arrived mere seconds after he did. She was fast, he'd give her that. After waiting half a minute, Sasuke arrived as well. Another half a minute later, Sakura did. He frowned mentally. That was really too slow for a Shinobi. Oh well, he'd tort- train that out of her.

"Hello. As of today, we are going to be Team Seven. Please introduce yourselves. Your likes, dislikes, hobbies and dreams, as well as your specialization. You, pinky. Start."

"Um… Sensei… Maybe you should go first?"

Sigh… He hated having to hold hands. "My name is Hatake Kakashi. My likes… I have some. I have some dislikes as well. I'm not going to tell you my hobbies, and my dreams… You're too young to hear those. I specialize in Ninjutsu. Now pinky, go." He noted Sakura's eyebrow twitched, and Sasuke was giving off signs of annoyance as well. Naruko, curiously, just giggled.

"Um… My name is Sakura Haruno… I like… I mean the person I like is…" She turned red. "I hate Ino-pig! My hobbies are…" She turned red again. "My dream is *SQUEAL*… My specialization… I'm good at Chakra control."

"You, the brooding one, go."

"My name is Sasuke Uchiha. I like very few things, and hate many things. My hobby is training. My dream is not a dream, but more of an ambition. I will revive my clan, and kill a certain man. My specialization is Ninjutsu."

"You, white-hair. Go."

"My name is Naruko Uzumaki! I like blood, dismembering, blood, playing, jiji, Tenzo-Sensei, blood, fighting and blood. I dislike people who won't play with me. My hobbies are playing and training. My dream is to have a lot of fun! My specialization is Taijutsu."

His other students were noticeably unnerved. Well, Sakura was. Sasuke was only noticeable to him. He himself wasn't surprised. He'd read her file, after all.

"Now then. You might be surprised, but we are not officially Team Seven yet. There is still one more test to go. The Genin test was just to weed out those who truly had no potential. Come to training ground seven tomorrow at 7:00 for survival training with me. And don't eat breakfast. You'll throw up. Now, Naruko, you're dismissed. Sakura, Sasuke, come with me. You need to get those wounds treated."

Naruko showed up at training ground seven at 7:00, having eaten dinner last night. As a half-demon, she didn't need much food, so that was more than sufficient until tonight. She walked over to one of the stumps on the ground and started meditating, ignoring Sakura staring at Sasuke.

At 10:00, Kakashi showed up in the poof of smoke that was signature of a Shunshin. He ignored Sakura's cry of "YOU'RE LATE!" with practiced ease and started explaining the rules of the test.

"You have until 12:00 to get these two bells from me. Whoever gets a bell passes. The last one gets sent back to the academy. I advise you not to hold back." As soon as he tied the bells to his belt and said "Start!", Naruko blurred. He could barely evade her, she was so fast! He doubted his students could see anything but a blur. Suddenly she sped up even more and… Yeah, he'd lost a bell. He noticed she was now sitting down at one of the stumps, obviously having accomplished her purpose. Ah. Sasuke was launching an attack. He used a quick Kawarimi, Sasuke followed and there was a quick Taijutsu exchange, at the end of which Sasuke used a Gokyaku no Jutsu, which he was rather surprised by. He'd have thought the boy would use his Chakra more sensibly. He was overconfident. In any case, he'd gotten away with a quick Doton jutsu. He sensed Sasuke looking around, and said just at the right moment:

"Below! Doton: Shinju Zanshu no Jutsu!" Grabbing his ankles, he dragged Sasuke underground. He turned around, going to look for Sakura. He found her, and used a minor Genjutsu. Yeah. That was a no for Genjutsu. She was unconscious.

Continuing to stand around reading his little orange book in the middle of the clearing, the bell went off soon enough. Creating a shadow clone to get Sasuke, he went towards Sakura, took her and tied her to a stump. He then used a minor Suiton jutsu to splash her awake.

"Huh… wha?"

"All three of you… None of you got what this test was about, did you?"

He heard a giggle. Hearing that girl giggle was starting to get really unnerving. "Oh, I did Sensei. Teamwork, right? We're not supposed to be able to beat a Jonin when fresh out of the academy."

Suddenly she looked up, and he was looking into gold-slitted eyes. It was rather unnerving, to be honest, even if he had read about it in her file.

"Too bad. I don't like working with weaklings. But I got a bell, right. So I pass! Or will you break your word?" Somehow he got the impression breaking his word was the worst thing he could do at this moment. It might have to do with the fact she let off a large spike of killing intent aimed at him when she said the last part. He remembered from her file that breaking her word was the one thing she wouldn't do… This was perfect! She'd just given him the perfect excuse to pass them as ordered.

"You're right. You got a bell. And you understood what the test was about. You pass. And with that, the other two of you pass as well. Meet me tomorrow at 7:00 for training, you have the rest of the day off!" And then, with an eye-smile, he poofed off to go read his book in report to Hokage-sama. But the reading was more important. Reporting could wait a while.

Naruko skipped around town. She was going to visit jiji! And with that thought, she jumped on the rooftops and ran towards jiji's tower. Jumping off the roof, she soared through the air and crashed through the window, landing on jiji's desk and scattering the paperwork everywhere.

"Hey jiji! I passed! Isn't that awesome! Now I have permanent playmates!"

He shuddered a little.

"Naruko-chan, you can't maim your teammates. Please refrain from doing so. Now then, I need to do paperwork… Which you scattered all over."

"No problem jiji! Always happy to help!"

"You didn't help!"

"Old man, today is the day I take your hat!"

With that, a boy came in. And tripped over his scarf. Really, Naruko thought. Who wears scarves like that? They're only useful for strangling people. Maybe inducing necrosis by restricting bloodflow… Oh, she'd SO have to try that. Giggle.

"Who tripped me? You! You tripped me!"

"Don't be silly. I wouldn't have tripped you, I'd have tore off your leg. Maybe I should do that anyway, neh? What do you say? Up for a little fun?" She said, releasing 30% of her Yoki to get that desired effect. The boy was obviously frightened.

"Naruko-chan, please do not harm my grandson."

"Ooh, he's your grandson, jiji. Is he strong? He's not, is he… Boring. I'm going to play with some bandits."

"Bandits? Since when have you been playing with bandits?"

Now he understood why some of those bandit camps in the vicinity had just disappeared… He should have known Naruko would find some other way to have her fun when he forbade her from playing with civilians or Shinobi.

"Um… four years now? It's really fun. They scream well. Bye jiji!"

And then she jumped out the still broken window.

"Neh, jiji, can we have a C-rank mission? These are boring. I want to have some fun!"

The Sandaime Hokage frowned. He'd ask Kakashi whether they were ready.

"Kakashi, are they ready for a C-ranked mission?"

"Yes, Hokage-sama. Sakura has been progressing well in her chakra control and medical studies and Sasuke was ready when he left the academy. I think an escort mission would be a good idea."

"Very well. Bring in Tazuna!"

The door opened. In stepped an old man with grey hair and a rope around his head. He held a saké bottle in his left hand and had a roll on his back. He looked at the people who were supposed to protect him.

The first one was a tall man with his forehead protector slanted over one eye, standing a little slouched. He was reading an orange book that Tazuna was quite familiar with. He had spiky silver hair and a facemask that covered the bottom of his face, leaving only a single eye exposed. Other than that, he wore gear very similar to what he'd seen a lot of other Shinobi wear.

The second one was a girl with green eyes and pink hair who had positioned her forehead protector in such a way it wouldn't really be visible to anyone of the same height. She wore a red dress.

The third one was a boy with dark hair shaped like a duck's ass. He wore his forehead protector where it was supposed to be. On his forehead. He wore a blue shirt and white shorts.

The last one was a little girl with near-white hair and silver eyes. She wore all black, and her forehead protector was on her forehead. All in all…

"They're all a super bunch of brats."

And then the girl with white hair was in his face, her eyes suddenly a terrifying gold. She watched him for a second, and then turned around.

"Neh, jiji…"

"No, Naruko-chan. No killing or maiming the client. That's bad for business."

She pouted. She POUTED. Tazuna was sure he was screwed now. Why did he have to get the Shinobi who was obviously even more insane than the rest of them. On the other hand, he was pretty sure she was strong. He hadn't even seen her move!

Their Sensei coughed.

"Tazuna-san, please do not taunt the psychotic Kunoichi. We'll depart in one hour, meet at the south gate."

"Yaaay… I'm going to make lots and lots of new friends… I wonder if they'll scream? They probably will. All the bandits did. First I'm going to…"

Tazuna was really scared for his life now. And very sick. But mostly scared for his life. For the past three hours he'd had to listen to Naruko monologue on how she was going to kill her 'friends' in increasingly gruesome ways. Where was that Kakashi? He really wanted to get this over with. He noted, with some envy, that her teammates were obviously used to this. They'd brought earplugs. The girl was staring at the boy, and the boy was brooding. He did that a lot, it seemed.

*Poof*

"Sensei! We'll get to kill lots of bandits, right?"

"Maybe some, Naruko. This is mostly a protection mission. But maybe we'll encounter a few bandits."

"Boring. I want bandits! Neh, Sensei…"

"No, Naruko, you can't go look for bandits."

"Awww…"

Kakashi noticed a puddle. A puddle, in the middle of the day, when it hadn't rained in days. He wondered who whoever was in the puddle was after. He decided to let his students handle it. He was sure Naruko would be able to handle whoever it was.

Oh, there they were. The chain wrapped around him a few times. Kawarimi. And they ripped a log to shreds. And they were unconscious, with Naruko standing over them. She'd moved at easily Jonin-level speeds.

"Good job, Naruko. Now wake them up, we need to find out who they were after."

"Neh, Sensei, can I do it?"

He stared at her for a moment, considering.

"Thanks, Sensei!"

And she grabbed them and ran into the forest.

"Hey! I didn't give you permission."

"AAAAGHHH, NO, NO, PLEASE, YAAAAGHHH!"

…

"Well, we'll let her do her thing for a while."

Five minutes later.

"They were after Tazuna-san!"

"And where are they now?"

"They're dead! Did you know having your heart ripped out kills you?"

"Yes, I did. Now then, Tazuna-san. Why were they after you?"

"Well, there's a super powerful man after my head, his name is Gato…"

"I still wonder how you got me to agree to this mission, Naruko."

"I threatened to burn your house down!"

"Oh, yes. That was how."

"Say, why are the two brats so silent?"

"I don't know. When I first saw them, they were sitting in the corner and ever since then they've been almost compulsively silent when around Naruko."

"That was fun! They were good playmates. But now they won't play with me…"

… They walked further.

"Tazuna-san, how much further is your house?"

"A ten minute walk."

Just then, Kakashi and Naruko heard something.

"Get down!" Kakashi said, while pushing down Sakura and Tazuna. Sasuke ducked on his own, and Naruko backflipped over the gigantic sword that came soaring over their heads.

They watched as the sword got stuck into a tree and a man with bandages over his mouth appeared, standing on it.

"Sharingan Kakashi. No wonder the demon brothers were defeated. Give me the old man and I'll let you go."

"Sorry, no can do. Zabuza Momochi, the Demon of the Hidden Mist. I'll need this to fight you." Kakashi said, pulling his forehead protector from his eyes. A red eye with three tomoe was behind it. Zabuza jumped off his sword and onto the lake, having swung the sword on his back in the meantime.

"Kirigakure no Jutsu."

Sasuke, Sakura and Tazuna began to shake from the killing intent in the air. Sasuke even brought a kunai to his throat, as if to cut it.

"Don't worry everyone. I won't let my teammates die!"

What followed was a fight only Naruko could follow. Kakashi and Zabuza killed several of each other's water clones, but in the end Kakashi was captured in a water prison.

"See, Kakashi. You lost. Now I only need to make a water clone to finish off your brats. Tch, brats like you. You don't deserve to call yourselves Shinobi unless you've had blood on your hands! When I was your age, I'd already killed!"

"That's true. Zabuza Momochi, the Demon of the Hidden Mist. He killed an entire graduating class when he wasn't even a Shinobi."

"Ooh, fun. Maybe I should have done that instead of ripping off that civilian's leg when I was six? It would've been a lot more fun…"

Zabuza instantly reassessed the girl. Now that he looked at her, she stood confidently, with a nostalgic smile on her face, like she was remembering her birthday.

"So it seems not all of you are a bunch of tree-huggers. Well, let's see what you got, girl. Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu!"

"Yay!"

And she blurred. She was fast! She took out his clone in an instant, attacking him right after. He jumped away, forced to release the water prison. Damn, this girl was good. She was fast, faster than him, and only his years of experience allowed him to keep up.

Kakashi attacked, having analyzed his student's fighting style. She appeared to be using Guy's Goken.

"Good work, Naruko. Now let me handle him."

"Aww… Okay."

Kakashi and Zabuza exchanged several Jutsu, but in the end Zabuza was defeated and taken away by a Hunter-nin.

"Good work team. Now…" And he fell unconscious.

"Ooh… I call dibs on command! Sakura, Sasuke, carry him!"

They arrived at Tazuna's house unchallenged.

Naruko, uncharacteristically serious, said:

"Sakura, Sasuke. I need to do something. Give this to Sensei when he wakes up if I am still not back. Do not read it without his permission. If I find out you did, I will kill you." She then handed them a letter and vanished.

Naruko was hopping through trees at a leisurely pace, following the scent of unwashed man that usually indicated a bandit camp. She'd go over the limit soon, it'd be awesome! She was going to be even more powerful than Kurama-nii-chan! There they were. Bandits. She jumped to the ground, out of sight of the bandits, and started gathering her Yoki.

10%. Her eyes turned gold.

30%. She grew fangs in her mouth, her veins were now visible.

50%. Her muscles bulged.

80%. This was it. The limit!

100%. She was over the limit!

Yeah. Shameless cliffhanger.

Yes, my Naruko is very powerful, but it's justified. She has all of the Kyuubi's Yoki already. Some in the Akatsuki will be able to challenge her though, especially working together. But anything lower than S-ranked is automatically toast after she Awakens.

As you might see, my Kakashi doesn't fuck around. He might be laid-back, but he's fucking Sharingan Kakashi, and he can teach.

Once again, constructive criticism would be appreciated.
